"I want it." Amelia let out a loud gasp, staring at the little girl in shock. Did she just hear her speak? Amelia shook her head lightly, asking. "Did you just say something?" She stared wide eyed at her. "Say something." She urged when the girl only looked down at her fingers. Amelia blinked her eyes repeatedly, still in shock. "Hey." She called, trying to make her respond. Amelia heaved out a deep breath when the girl only wiggled, trying to get down. Amelia dropped her to the ground and she scurried off quickly before she could say a word. Amelia stood there, rooted to the ground for a few minutes before she shook her head and walked out of the garden. "Is there anything I can help with?" Amelia asked as she walked into the kitchen. "Oh, nothing dear child. You've done a lot today." Loretta declined with a warm smile. "Besides, you need to take a rest, before the seamstresses comes with clothes for you." Loretta added. "Seamstresses?" Amelia brows raised in confusion as she
"What's in that bag?" Amelia asked, pointing at the bag laying on the ground. They had successfully chosen a suitable dress and mask for the festival and were preparing to leave. "Oh that! Oh my god. We almost forgot one important thing." Kalani rushed to bring the bag. "These are shoes." "Oh my god. I can't believe we forgot about that." Rieka brows raised in surprise. "Come on, bring it. Let's check it out." Kalani brought the bag to the bed, bringing out some of the shoes. "That." Amelia pointed at one. "Let me see it. It's so perfect." She smiled up at Rieka. "It suits the dress perfectly." She stared at the light yellow glittery shoe in her hand. She took it to her leg and wore it, smiling as it fit perfectly. "I'll take this. Thank you for your time." "Yeah, you're welcome." Kalani answered, putting the rest of the shoes into the box, with the help of Mirabel before they both took their bags and exited the room. "Woof!" Rieka plopped down to the bed, letting out a tired sig
"I don't think he knows yet." Ralph turned around sharply when he heard Rieka speak behind. "What?" He furrowed his brows in confusion. "I was thinking this over the night. The alpha doesn't know yet. He doesn't know Amelia is Lupe." She explained further, staring up at him. Ralph stared around cautiously before he grabbed her wrist, pulling her to a secluded area. "What do you mean? And how did you know this?" "It's obvious Ralph, if he already found out she's Lupe he wouldn't act the way he's behaving to her. And you know? Treat her that way. Also distancing himself from her." She explained, whisper yelling. "Besides, we all know how he treated Lupe. He was always close to her, like she was the very oxygen he breathes. If he already found out she's Lupe, he would have changed." "But what about that time he caught us in the library." Ralph pointed out, staring at her unsurely. "He must've known." "Maybe, maybe not." Rieka waved her hands dismissively. "But just think about. If
"I spoke with Hector yesterday." Gregory announced as he sat opposite Derek in the bright office. "Did he agree?" Derek asked, taking the tip of the lit cigarette to his mouth. "Yes he did." Gregory confirmed. "Great, so very soon I should be getting news that the alpha's new mate is dead right?" "Yes." Gregory answered in contrary to what was in his mind. He knew Hector wouldn't agree just like that without benefitting anything from it. He hates the alpha yes, but he wouldn't just take orders like that. He would only do something that would benefit him positively. Yes, he was a desperate and would go at any length to have what he wants, but he's also a skilled manipulator. Deep down Gregory knew Hector had other plans in mind and Derek wouldn't like them. He'd wait till the festival is over to hear any news. He's sure he'd hear one and Hector would definitely be behind it. "You can leave." Derek ordered, waving his hands dismissively at him. Gregory gave a quick nod after he
"How dare you try to poison me?" Amelia gasped holding his hands as all air cut out of her lungs. "Stop." She whimpered with eyes widened in fear and terror. Sebastian released her and held her shoulders slamming her hard against the wall. "No!" Rieka screamed, her eyes widened in pure fright. "No." She whimpered and hurriedly turned around the ballroom searching for Ralph. Oh shit! He wasn't in the room. She stared around the room one last time and rushed out in search for Ralph. He was the only one that can help now. The entire hall gasped when he slammed against the wall again, this time harder than the first. The crowds let out another gasp as he raised his hands in the air, his fangs stretching out, ready to strike her. But in the blink of an eye he was pushed away from her with a great force, landing on the other side of the room. Amelia let out repeated short breaths, dropping to the ground as she stared at the phoenix king standing a few meters from the alpha king. "Stay o
Gregory breathed out a heavy breath running his fingers through his hair. "Hector, Hector, Hector. Damn manipulator." Derek removed the cigarette from his mouth, puffing out the smoke. "What the hell was I thinking? I knew he would always do something else. Something aside the plan." "I think he wants the alpha to hate his mate." Gregory placed his hands on his jaw, quirking his brows as he was full of thoughts. "Do you think I should call him?" He asked. "No, let's wait and see how this new plan goes. I think it's gonna be a good one." * * She sat on the ground in the cold cell, hugging her knees tightly. It was so dark here, just a dim light coming from the small window. Her eyes and throat hurts so much from crying but she didn't stop. She couldn't. She slept on the cold floor the entire night in the dark quiet dungeon, only the squeaks of rats could be heard. She cried from the pain in her body, the embarrassment at the ballroom and the fear of the dungeon. She was the o
It was quite blurry, but the clanging noises of the door opening made her know that someone was coming in. Then she heard footsteps approaching. "Hey." She felt a cold hand touch her bare shoulders, followed by the scent of food. Then her stomach growled, reminding her of how badly hungry she was. "Food?" She muttered, slowly sitting up. She cringed as her own skin irritated her. She has not had her bath since the incident yesterday and she could tell, it was almost getting to evening. "Yes," Rieka sat beside her, crossing her legs. She felt pity for the human, but she doesn't know what to think or do. She knew Amelia didn't poison the drink but what can she do? Talk to Alpha king? No, not yet. He might just get angry and murder her. He has been in his room since the incident yesterday and she's sure he's in a very bad mood now. She uncovered the plate of mashed potatoes, pushing it to her. "I don't have to ask, you must be very hungry." Amelia groaned, leaning against the wall, h
She stirred around the bed as bright light from the room shone directly on her face. She grabbed the sheets between her fingers, moaning softly as she tried to get back to sleep. "You're not gonna sleep the whole day, are you?" She buried her face into the bed, groaning quietly. Why can't they just let her- Her eyes snapped open almost immediately when she realised that was an unfamiliar voice. She was sure she's never heard that voice before. And the sheets! They were definitely not the color of hers. It was like ice blue and was quite softer and more comfortable than hers. She sat up from the bed slowly as she felt slight pains around her body. She let out a small gasp as she sighted the phoenix king sitting at the foot of the bed, staring at her. Then she took her eyes around the unfamiliar bright room, squinting her eyes as she staring around. The room was a really bright one, everything was real white. It was like the door and ceiling was built with ice, she couldn't under
