CHAPTER NINE

The rest of the day went by in a stressful blur.

I never made the mistake of cleaning the west wing again. I should have known. Fewer servants were moving there, just a measly handful.

I was beyond lucky that my foolishness hadn’t led me to my death. Who knows the punishment I would have received if I’d been caught by a guard, or worse-

A royal.

After our working hours every servant was expected to return to the court were we had gathered in the morning, then walk quietly back to the stables. I had learnt from another servant that the court was the slave's quarters, were we could gather without disgusting a royal by leaving our stench in the main hall.

It was almost demeaning, but I knew all wolves were sensitive to scent, though my weakness had prevented me from noticing most of it.

I couldn’t even imagine how sensitive a royal's nose would be.

“You should rest while you can.” Bujok pulled me out of my thoughts as he sat on his pile of hay. He had taken quite some ti

    SAPPHIREThe moment I saw him at the door the chains that were wrapped round my legs disappeared.The wolf stood at the door, his crimson eyes gazing intently into mine like a call.I moved before I could think.My feet carried me past Bujok’s side, past all the other sleeping captives. No one even flinched as I walked out of the stable, standing in front of the wolf.He bent his head low for me as I got closer, urging me to climb. I reached out to feel his fur, the mane thick and soft as I climbed, sitting to the side. I felt the muscle underneath me move as he walked off, leading me across the fields and trees of the palace. It was absolutely quiet as he carried me, the full moon high in the sky as the trees parted, and that was when I gasped at the sight of the stream in front of us. The rushing water looked like ink as it flowed, the full moon reflecting on it in scattered circles.It was so beautiful..“I have been waiting for you.” He said softly, gazing into my eyes as the moo

    SAPPHIRE The dread in the atmosphere was painfully heavy. We were no better than deer walking into the arms of the hunters. The only difference was that they lived in the bliss of ignorance and we were too unfortunate to be ignorant.All we could do was to plead to the goddess that our deaths would be swift and painless.Four moons had set before we finally arrived to the palace. Once we reached the gates, they came to a halt.The gates before me were like monuments, titan like, and completely gold. The inlays on it had patterns that were too intricate for me to follow or even understand. There were soldiers at the gate, and some were in their wolf form. I lowered my gaze immediately, hearing them walk up to our carriage and speaking lowly to the soldier accompanying us, before calling out to another ahead as they cleared us.Suddenly the gates were opened, the gold catching lines of light from the sky. And I lost my breath at the sight before me. The exterior of the palace was b

    SAPPHIRE His lifeless eyes bore into mine as I stood there, frozen in absolute fear.What exactly happened while I was unconscious??“The joy in my heart seeing that bastard’s head on a stake knows no bounds.” Bujok whispered beside me.“W-what did he do?” I asked as I forced my eyes away from his head.“I heard he disrespected the Alpha king.” He said, his eyes still on Hakil’s decapitated head on display.“The king was here??” I asked, my eyes widening.He turned to me, his brow raised, “Didn’t you mention you could sense aura?”“I can, I just couldn’t this time.” I muttered, looking away from him as my mind wandered.The alpha king came to the camp, and I could not even sense his presence. How was that even possible? When I heard Royal blood was approaching the camp, I never thought it would be the Alpha king. What was he doing here? From the stories I had heard, It was unlike the king to be in the presence of lowlifes… unless there was another reason none of us were aware of.

    CHAPTER FIVE SAPPHIRE My eyes fluttered open, awakened by a song carried faithfully by the wind. The melody sounded so familiar, yet so strange, like I had only heard it once in passing. Like it was made for the ears of another. It wasn’t cold as I had remembered, the wind. This time it held a warmth I had only felt in the arms of my father. The goddess had blessed us with a full moon tonight. The light from the moon reflected on the surface of the river I stood in, the cool water rushing past my feet. Then I felt a presence behind me, but I was not overcome with fear. Within me, I knew who it was. I turned to face him, his silver fur glowing beneath the moonlight as his crimson eyes gazed at mine. He walked towards me slowly, my heart racing like I had just run a thousand miles.He stopped some steps away from me, and his eyes held a longing I had never seen. No one had ever looked at me that way before. And then his voice reached my ears, “I have searched for you for so

    SAPPHIRE It seemed I had begun to hallucinate.If I didn’t know any better, I’d think he didn’t have it in mind to kill me. Or eat me. He reached out to touch my cheek and I flinched away in fear. “You must leave at once, before he gets here.” He said as he lifted me to my feet, his eyes scanning his surroundings. “What? Who?” I asked, my voice woven with confusion.“If he sees you like this, it would be disastrous.” He said, a certain dread lacing his voice. Why was he helping me? Or was he truly helping me? Or just deceitfully leading me to my ruin. He led me to a through the camp, his eyes actively surveying. “Where are you taking me??” I asked, my eyes gazing upon this stranger warily. He paused abruptly. I could have sworn on the moon his eyes turned pitch black. In that moment, his scent changed; he wasn’t a wolf. So what was he?? He turned to me, and his eyes reverted to the norm. I took a step away from him, my eyes refusing to look away from… whatever he was. “
