ROSE
"It began when you were born..." Deamian said. "She just felt that you were the one. I could tell on her face. She knew you were special, strong, powerful. You were everything my previous 'mate' was lacking and more-"
"-wait, previous mate?" I said as I stared at him in shock, we were currently sitting on his bed across from each other.
he looked at me with annoyance and told me not to interrupt him. I reluctantly agreed.
"That day, she met with your parents and told them of her plans for you and the title you were supposed to be born under. She took one look at you and in her heart, she knew you and I were destined. I knew it too. Something in those eyes drew me in. They had the same amount of power and confidence that radiated from me. It was then that she decided that you would not be a Luna. You would be a Goddess... More particularly, Moon Goddess. So, she i
ROSEThe next day I woke up to the smell of eggs wafting in the air as well as a hint of toast and sausages.I inhaled once more, allowing the smell to completely take over my senses, causing a low grumble in my stomach. I was hungry. With that thought in mind, I raced to the kitchen, completely forgetting that I'd gone to sleep in my underwear because it was so hot in the evening."Breakfast!" I yelled eyeing the food. Hungry Rose was very... Strange. That's why I kept myself always properly fed to prevent her from showing up.Deamian looked up and then froze as he eyed my body darkly. He was practically defiling me with just his gaze."... Are you trying to provoke me?" He asked.I looked at him confused and then finally looked down at my body. My eyes nearly fell from their sockets in shock. Stupid... STUPID Rose. W
ROSEDeamian led me to his room, his fingers wrapped around my own as he led me towards the bathroom. In his other hand was the briefcase with the moonflower in it, making itself very much known by giving me a full-blown headache. He then sat me down on the edge of the tub and set the case on the floor."I'm going to need you to take your clothes off now." He said.Wow. So smooth."Um... Can you turn around... And do-do I need to be naked naked or just naked?" I asked.He shook his head at my question."You're currently in your underwear... So, I mean you're going to have to remove everything for this to work. It's kind of like your rebirth. And you weren't born in clothes now, were you??" He laughed. I shook my head no and sighed as he turned around to grab the moon flower."Usually we h
ROSEDeamian was awfully quiet as we rode at the back of his father's car.Guess the plan of me partaking in the ritual and thereafter visiting Stella the witch was completely off the table now. I'd never felt so much tension in one space. Deamian was seething, his dad just seemed confused and nervous. Guess Deamian hated his dad too. What concerned me the most was the fact that Deamian’s dad did not at all look like the type of person to want to kill the mother of his own child. His aura seemed too calm and… good. I knew killers, and this man, was not one. I turned towards Deamian and saw the anger all across his face.Deamian, you're quiet, I said in my mind, hoping he'd be listening to my thoughts.I don't trust himWhy? Isn't he your dad?
ROSEHer name was Scarlett, Scarlett Bell.It seemed like a nice enough name, right? Wrong. Her name sent shivers along my spine and evoked a strong nauseating feeling in my stomach. I didn't like her. No, not one bit, and I could tell, by the pure anger raging off of her body, that she did not like me at all either.She sat across from me in a huge room filled with nothing but a large table, chairs, a screen projector, and rows of shelves stacked with documentation folders. The meeting room, I concluded."So, she's my replacement huh?" She seethed while staring at me.Deamian growled at her and grabbed my hand on instinct. I pulled it away, revolted at the thought of him thinking I was weak enough to need him to stand up for me. I had a mouth for a reason. Deamian shot me an apologetic smile, probably reading my thoughts.
ROSEDeamian decided to try to make it all up to me by cooking. I wasn't complaining, Deamian's cooking was divine. What I was more interested in were the answers he promised to give me. The answers I so desperately craved."And here we go." He said setting a plate of warm beef lasagne, salad, and slices of golden, glazed butternut before me.He sat down too and began eating his food hungrily. I followed suit."My dad..." He began, "My dad left my mom many years back. Not because they didn't love each other, but because my dad was a guardian of the werewolf world, and that included my mom and the flower. For her safety and for mine, my dad had to leave us behind and set up an organisation dedicated to protecting the magic that is the werewolf realm. I guess I always hated him for it. I hated him for choosing his duty over his family... over me. He obeyed my mom, even
ROSE"Your majesty..." That voice hissed softly in my eardrums, awakening me from my deep slumber.As my eyes fluttered open, I found myself in a place I'd been to before. The sanctuary. Everything seemed perfectly in place. And for a second confusion struck."I see he's marked you?" I turned to the source of the voice. She stood with white hair and a soft smile. There was something different about her though. She glowed with a ghost like aura. But it wasn't menacing and malevolent. Instead, it was warm and radiant. Soft and pure."Your highness!" I bowed to the moon goddess... Deamian's mom.She gave a soft giggle, "No need for that. I should be calling you 'your majesty'" she said.She then moved closer to me. She wasn't walking but floating slightly.Eventually she was right in front of me.
ROSESo, I made Deamian run back home and fetch me my clothes because I really did not want to be parading around his dad's pack grounds naked.He answered my demand first by questioning why he couldn't see me naked. "we're mates after all!" Was what he said. He said this, however after the fact that he claimed to want to mate me right there and then because of said nudity. So, excuse me if I didn't trust his self-control. Not that I had a problem with it, it's just... I was already impure enough. Imagine how excruciating the ritual would be if I'd been mated. Idiot. And that leads me to our current situation: an argument, as always..."... You had a responsibility to tell me about being impure for the ritual!" I yelled as we walked. Deamian was finally in his human form, parading in his boxers because my mate ladies and gentlemen was a mouth-watering idiot who enjoyed not having clothes on.
ROSE"I hate you."That's how Scarlett chose to greet me. And it was a greeting to which I replied:"I don't care. If you could concentrate on things which don't consist of hate and idiocy, I think you'd find life to be pleasant. Because currently there's a stick far up your ass which is giving you this really bit-""I think she has the point Rose." Deamian shook his head.Does she though? Because for the past two days she's just been hammering on how much she hates me. And to top it all off, she had to watch me twice a day. She had to accompany from my home to Mr Grimmwolf's office because Deamian got up early to continue learning the proper procedures of the ritual. Apparently, he was a big idiot and was going to attempt the ritual like an idiot if Grimmwolf hadn't found us. This whole place was just full of incompetent fools. Honestly, I mi
