Morning came, the sun rising up, tiredness catching up with me as I shifted my weight from foot to foot wanting nothing than to go to bed as I leaned on the king's shoulder. My eyes flickered close only to open again. We had just waved goodbye to the last official, thanking everyone for coming as one by one the people left. I was tired and not being able to wait to get home. I sighed, wrapping my arm again which had just been slipping from his. The king stood tall, talking to someone. His arm was around my shoulder holding me closer, literally burying me in his armpit which I did not mind as I drifted off only for my head to dip back, my eyes shooting open.My eyes were burning red with my head pounding. That is the prize you pay for partying all night, my whole body aching and sticky, needing nothing but a shower and a bed. I sighed again, hoping he would be done soon because I sure would collapse anytime. I was too tired to care who saw me in such
I woke up with a start, my body jolting up as if I had just been hit by a bolt of lightning. My hands went to my chest, clenching it as I heavily heaved. This had been happening for the past week, getting more and more violent by the passing days. I dashed out of bed straight to the bathroom where I slid to the floor before emptying the contents of my stomach into the toilet bowl. My whole body was drenched, tears streaming down as I dry heaved.It went on for a couple of seconds before I collapsed on the floor. My arms went around my waist, hugging myself as the tears flowed down my cheeks. I had wrecked my brain on what could be happening and nothing. Vampir had not been around for the whole week, trying to get everything in order before we left for the Werewolf king's ball. An invitation had been sent through an email from the king himself, inviting us to the yearly king's ball. I did not want to go but Husband insisted, not wanting to miss the opportunity to show me aroun
It was hours in the air and the jet was landing. I could not believe I was back home, could not help the fear as I felt the jet touch down in the land where I had thought I would never see, not in this life. It was amazing how things had turned out, it was amazing how fate had led me to my mate. It was amazing how the universe worked. I sighed, wanting to look outside my window but scared to. What if they had called us here to attack us? That was another possibility that I would not put past my father.My hands gripped the arm of that chair as I sat back, my eyes flickering to the king who was on the phone, talking about something he had to do on the following week. I sighed, imagining so many scenarios of what would happen on this weekend, and I could not help but be afraid. The king dropped the phone, his eyes rushing to me where he gave me a smile, making me blush and look away. He sat back in his seat as the plane came into a stand still. The other plane with the others we were tr
We were shown to our room which was on the top floor of the west wing where all the guests were staying. It was a large room with a living room, closet and a large bathroom. We were here to refresh before dinner which was thirty minutes from now. The king was nearly done in his tux and I on the other side was just a mess. I would have been done if my lady in waiting was not sitting on the bed eating ice cream. I turned and turned with no hope of fastening the zip at the back of my dress."Belle, come on, bring your tiny hands here." I shot out. She was such a pain in the ass with a mouth that ran as if she suffered from verbal diarrhoea."Okay, wait a minute though, I am about to finish." She said back with her squeaky voice. I shook my head in frustration."Now Belle." I shot out ready to walk out of this screen and pull her toddler ass in here."Okay," She said back, hearing the patter
"Queen Tiara, King Bad-wolf." I said back to them, giving them a bow of my head for their pleasure.The vampire king did not say anything, making everyone wary with their eyes. They stole glances now and again, afraid to even whisper among themselves. My father nodded, making his way to the chair which was at the edge off the table. The chair next to the king was vacate along with the chair next to the werewolf queen. Ladies were supposed to seat at the left of the table while all the man sat at the right as per rules. I pulled out from Vampir’s wing only to be pulled back in."What are you doing wife?" He questioned with all eyes snapping back to us."Going to take my seat," I whispered back to him but it was futile as everyone in this room had sensitive hearing."Come," He said walking to where he was supposed to be sitting which was in between the werewolf king and Dragon king.
No one had to tell me as I shot out of the bed, running to the bathroom to empty the contents of my stomach. My hands gripped on the toilet bowl as I emptied all that I had had the previous night. My head was pounding with my throat dry as I heaved over the toilet seat. My whole body shook with the tears streaming down my face. Everything was burning hot with nothing but sweat covering my whole body. My hair was suddenly pulled back as I went for round three, pouring all that my stomach held over the bawl. My mouth burned from that passed my tongue, as if acid had just slipped out. My eyes closed, my head leaning on the toilet seat. I felt his hands rub my back, his touch bringing such comfort to me, taking away some of the pain that had me so pale.My whole body shook as a sob escaped me. I did not know what was happening, so scared to find out. My body was scooped, face buried in his chest where he held me. Vampir’s scent sent me on ease, taking whiffs o
I stood where I was, not daring to cower from him because, hell, I was not scared of him. My heart drummed yet I knew I was not scared of him, not even in the slightest. His feet came into a halt, his scent attacking my nostrils, making me nearly sneeze."What have you done?" The question came as his hand flashed so fast I barely caught it as he gripped my jaw so tight, sure to leave it bruised. My heart was frantic not knowing what to do as I stared at him dead in his eyes."Let go of me before I cut that hand of yours," I said through gritted teeth, watching as the smirk returned on his face."I don't know how you are still alive but I will kill you myself if you don't get rid of that thing." His words left me pale as I stood suddenly shaking like a leaf."What thing?" I dared to ask."Your husband may be a fool but I am not. Everyone heard it, everyone knows. You will ge
A knock at the door had me scrambling to the closet where I hid the bottle under my folded clothes. My heart was pounding, not wanting to be caught with the poison as it would render me guilty with no other option but to hang."Come in," I shot through, walking out of the closet, wondering who it was. One of our guards came in pushing a cart full of food, my stomach turning at the sight."Afternoon my queen," He greeted."Afternoon to you too, how are you doing today?" I asked, my shaking hands hidden from sight, in my skirts. My heart beat was so loud I could not miss the guard giving me a questioning look, knowing he was wondering what had me so hyped."Good your majesty. I have brought you your lunch. The others went to find their mates with the king." He stated, placing the different dishes on the table in the living room."Thank you." I said to him only for him to turn and w
