She Was The Queen Chapter Forty-Two - Khai
When I woke up gravity felt like a boulder pressing on every fibre of my body. I was heavy and my head and neck pulsed with a pain I'd never felt before. Walter had me on a drip, I pulled out the needle and sat up. The world spun and I felt incredibly worn.How was it that I felt like I was on top of the world and then the whole world was on top of me?I needed to get out of here. I could feel a shift in my mood coming.I dragged myself to my room and got dressed. I could hear Roman and Linda cooking and talking in the kitchen. It sounded like they were starting to get along. I got dressed and used the backdoor by the garage to get out. I phased and ran out into the wild.I couldn't say how long I stayed out there, but I returned replenished. Roman was upset and worried about me but it wasn't anything I couldn't reassure her about. We sat in my bedroom and she'd just come from a shower. Water dripped from the ends of her locks and steam filled the room from her boiling shower."I'm fin

I climbed the stairs to the rooms. Passing my room where I could hear Roman shifting around, listening to my earphones. It was what fascinated her most about the modern life.I set two taps on the door and her groggy voice lamented."Go away.""It's Khai, open," I demanded.It took a lot of fidgeting and shuffling for her to finally open the door.Her red hair was untamed as it reached down to her shoulders like wild branches. Dark circles under her eyes. Despair decorated her body as she slouched and her lips remained curled upside down. I pushed past her and inhaled a thick stench in her room. I rushed to open the windows and curtains."Are you trying to die?”"Maybe," she mumbled.She closed the door behind her and turned on the lights. Bright pink walls. It was a mess. Clothes were everywhere, plates of food piled up in the corner crawling with cockroaches and the stench was unbearable. I had to keep myself from gagging."You can't live like this.""I just did," she said languidl

He let me guide him into the room where I aggressively pushed him onto his bed. I was burning with a pyroclastic rage, erupting from me like a volcano. I climbed on him and straddled him on the bed.Khai could barely think, I could tell. He was out of breath and desperate for my lips. I kissed him deeply and caressed his neck. He moaned into my lips. I lowered my lips, kissed and sucked his neck. All things he had subconsciously taught me.Then as soon as he was at the top of the moment I stopped and got off him.Puzzled he looked at me as I sat down on the bed beside him."Roman?" he was breathless.He sat up straight and fixed his shirt."Khai," I replied."What's wrong?""I'm not going to do this with you. I'm not some city wolf."He shrugged; his eyes still dazed with passion."Where I'm from you marry a girl before you sleep with her. The culture that you guys have here. Sleeping with each other as if sex is as casual as a conversation is insane to me."His eyes dimmed but not in

"I don't know if we were supposed to act like we did not hear that," Yolanda said as she walked into the kitchen with Jacob.Jacob narrowed his eyes and beamed."Me either. Are we supposed to look at them funny or wink at them? I don’t know," Jacob laughed.I put my book down at looked at the most childish adults I've ever seen, both looking at me like excited parents."What is this?" I asked helplessly.They must've seen us in the corridor when we left Grace's room yesterday. Must've heard the beginnings of something that went nowhere."Ey! Look at that glow," Jacob clapped his hands."What glow?" Roman happened to walk in, in a tank top and jeans.She looked great in her clothes. They fit perfectly.Yolanda and Jacob giggled between each other."A full month, that’s the longest it's taken you to get into anyone's pants," Jacob said.Yolanda barked in laughter. Roman stood in the middle of the kitchen awkwardly. I sighed. These things made her uncomfortable."Nothing happened, you guy

Khai tugged me into an unknown distance. I wore a trench coat and boots. We were about a mile away from the house when a shelter appeared. It had two giant brown doors that pulled up vertically when Khai pressed a button.Inside was a black matte car, small and sexy like a black mamba. He strapped me into the passenger seat."Why do you guys even own cars?" I asked when the engine roared to life."Humans don't want animals running in the streets. In the same way, you don't want them in the woods," he replied.I smiled. That was true. He looked more comfortable in this car than he did in the truck.We set off. The car was like its own person, it moved, and it roared. It moved slickly through the forest and smoothly along tar. Watching him handle the wheel with ease made me envy driving it."So, we're going to the city?" I piped up with my voice cracking.Whenever Khai took me anywhere he never said where. Khai agreed."Why?""You ask too many questions," Khai said curtly.It seemed he

Cynthia smiled and left. Before she could properly get out of sight, she hollered something at me. I didn't hear it well but I caught the name luna."She knows me?" I slammed the table."Everyone knows you. I own this place."My jaw dropped that instant. So Khai wasn't a guy who just sat at home and drove around town to spend his time. He did something."All people who work here are Traga,” he said, slumping into his chair."I own most of the businesses in this city, a barber shop, apartments, etc."Then he chuckled."You think the government just blesses us with land and money to build all those houses.""The government?""People in charge of the people.""Government is not a person?""It's a whole lot of selfish people."The way Khai said selfish, anyone could tell he didn't like the government.No wonder Traga owned so much land, they were rich. No wonder they had all the things they did, unlike us who fended for ourselves, living on everything Yaga gave us.Now I had a different l

I slouched back in my chair and admired my big stomach, full to the brim. So this was what it was like to have a rich boyfriend. Speaking of which, was I his girlfriend? He was my boyfriend, at least in my head but was I his girlfriend?A bell went and Khai's expression went from relaxed to disgust. I watched the young woman who walked in. She had the small frame of a little girl but her mature face gave it away - she had definitely been through life, the rough part of it. The woman wore a black beanie and black denim."Hi."She waved happily at Khai.I turned back at him."A friend of yours?" I asked with a brow up.He rolled his head back and she approached."I'm sorry, has he already slept with you?" she teased.The girl patted my shoulder and grimaced."I'm sorry to come onto you like that, I'm Bonny, Khai's ex. Lol, one of his hoes like others would say. Welcome to the club."Her black hair turned with her when she grabbed a chair to join us."Are you lost?" Khai was trying to ho

I couldn't understand my feelings for Khai or our relationship. The stars had so perfectly aligned to make this pairing yet we fought at every turn and kissed at the second. It didn't make sense. Was this how love unfolded? In ebbs and flows?"So was that a promise? You're going to get rid of them?""All of them," he confirmed.He didn't face me but I could tell he was remorseful."How?" I asked."I'll tell them and cut communication."I hated that we were having this conversation at all. Why couldn't things just flow between us? Why couldn't we just be in love and have an uncomplicated relationship? Why weren't we just normal wolves? I hoped for something different, something perfect but I couldn't say what that looked like. All I knew was that it looked nothing like us.Khai reduced the speed of the car as we approached the house.He was ready to turn into the path of the shed when the car rapidly swerved and stopped near a t

She Was The Queen Finale
Malcolm was ravenous and relentless. The resistance I felt to fight him looked like it didn't exist in him. He clawed and he bit, he pulled and tried to tear but my body was too strong as an alpha. I turned to him as he was on me and bit into his shoulder. He howled painfully and kicked himself off me. Malcolm, surrender, please. Khai would want you to live.

We found ourselves outside, everyone had transformed into their wolf forms. The majority of the pack had already gathered to watch. Malcolm stood opposite me, snarling and growling.Traga wolves, please hear me. This is not my doing but that of your great ancestor and Khai. This is not my will but that of your own. Blasphemy! A wolf shouted.The pack was clearly split into sides. Those who wanted to remain Traga wolves were in the majority, standing behind Malcolm. I saw many wolves I thought would be on my side.The only one on my side was Grace in her brown wolf form which shone red under the sun. Her love for Khai brought her here and also a pack that never chose her. My heart expected Yolanda to be on my side, Linda or Edna but they stood fiercely behind Malcolm.A howl ripped from the forest and a grey wolf appeared. Audrey. Her blue eyes were like ice.I will fight as well. she growledTwo against one is hardly fair, even for an alpha, Grace said.She stepped forward and nodded

I had not seen her in months. Her absence even made me believe she wasn't around anymore. I never passed her anywhere.Even at the funeral. I knew she was there but I didn't see her.“You better sit down,” Whitney warned.Grace glanced at her without any emotions and walked toward me. I stood up as she approached. She looked tired and broken.“I heard him before he went away," she continued.“If you want to make yourself useful, do it by going back to that room!” Whitney shouted.Whitney charged toward Grace. I found myself running to block her from striking Grace.I gripped her hand in my hand inches from Grace's face. Grace had her arms up in defence. Whitney's wide eyes locked with mine incredulously.“You will sit down!” I said in my alpha voice and it brought her down to her knees."Oh!" Whitney grunted and she found herself crouched on the floor.My voice was so heav

When the elders gathered in the living room, winter was coming to a visible end. Their eyes were still full of grief and heartache, but Raymond was as cold as stone.I told no one else about what Yaga and Khai told me to do after Audrey's reaction. I kept it to myself. Malcolm could read a difference in me but he couldn’t put a finger on it. Most of the time I avoided his advances and efforts to make something out of the proposed arrangement but I gave him no opening.My stomach turned; I could feel another war coming on.“Roman, the time has come. We understand that you may not want anything big but we will need it on paper,” Khai’s grandfather said to me.I sat alone on the single couch while everyone sat around me. This must’ve been how Khai felt when he led. All these eyes and weight on him. No wonder he was broken.My mouth remained sealed and I looked over at Malcolm who for once in one of these meetings was looking me directly in the eyes. Bold and immovable.“By the end of tom

I reached out for her and she moved her hand away. That's when I knew there was division between us."Do you know what you sound like?" she said as she glared at me.I shrugged helplessly."A colonizer.""Excuse me?" I breathed.I wasn't sure if I heard her right."I should've listened to Malcolm. You've made Malcolm a reliable source. Do you know how insane you need to be to make Malcolm sound reliable?" she shouted.The workers around us watched us and all the harvesting had stopped. Audrey saw the eyes and closed the space between us and lowered her voice."How dare you use Khai's name to justify your schemes," she said through clenched teeth."This is not my scheme Audrey. I don't want this either but Khai said-""How dare you?"Her eyes became glossy and she jabbed a finger in my chest."Doing that will eradicate everything that makes us Traga. You came in here and usurped our leader and now you

Winter covered the garden with its cold whiteness and a few months breezed past. The trees grew bare with leaves and frostbite crept up my fragile human toes.I never had to worry about these things when I spent every day and night as a wolf. My fur always kept me warm but as a human, which I spent most of my time as - I found sickness and shivering to be commonplace.They were generous with the mourning period but time was running out. I couldn't avoid the subject of marriage to Malcolm any longer. Eventually, the elders would end their kind silence and come to the house again.Intimidated and confused, I had said yes to marrying Malcolm under the condition that they would lend me the guard dogs in my fight against the Azraels. They had done that for me.This was against my moral code. Growing up, my father taught me to keep my word but then I felt Khai, heard him in my head and promised him I’d never marry Malcolm and see the plan through - my mor

It became apparent why I was here. Why it was the doorstep of the Tragas I fell upon. It was for this moment right here. Khai and I were nothing but collateral, a means to an end.I was but a small cog in the machine, a pawn in a chess game played by the gods. Traga was willing to sacrifice himself to Yaga so his children would get stronger and live longer. My blood would certainly guarantee that.After Khai left my mind and body I felt lonely. Lonelier than I’d ever been or believed was possible. I sat in the desert crying for what felt like an hour as the black hole in my chest gaped wider.I saw them looking for me in the distance and I ran to hide so I could cry all the cowardice out of me.I couldn’t continue like this anymore. I needed to take the first step. Move out of the passive and into the active.For the first time in a long time, I got on my knees and said a prayer.Give me the strength to see these plans through. Please soften the hearts of Traga Wolves so they may rece

The night went on and I left the crowd to sit alone with my fourth drink. I wanted to cry but my body felt too tired of all the sadness and pain. Also, I was tired of forcing smiles.I walked a mile off and sat on the dirt, gazing up at the moon.I’d never given the moon much thought till I came to Traga. All I cared about before was the sun and now I was of both the sun and the moon.As I stared the moon it began to glow. I kept my gaze fixed on it and I felt my blood rushing through my veins. I stood up to my feet as my heart pounded in my chest.What was happening?It went on for a while until my chest felt warm. Tears brimmed at my eyes as I felt it again. His love. His warmth, his presence glowing from inside of me.It was Khai. How?Roman. Khai?Yes. How? I laughed, a mix of joy and tears.How was this happening. I’d never felt so whole in my life. My

Ginos was a place out of town, randomly in the middle of the dessert like area. It was made of shipping containers huddled into a circle where people could sit and have drinks. They only served barbeque meats and alcohol. The air was heavy with spices, smoke and charred meat which made my mouth salivate.I couldn’t believe the Tragas had finally managed to get me off raw meat. I couldn’t imagine eating it.We joined two tables and sat together, the loudest group in the whole place. Hannah, Falcon, Jacob, Yolanda, Audrey, Malcolm, Linda and apparently Greg was coming. The idea didn’t excite me and I felt that it was disrespectful seeing as Khai was barely gone for a week and she was already going over his head.Khai never wanted Greg around them. He could do nothing about Linda’s love for him but he made it clear he didn’t want him around other wolves.I didn’t have the energy to argue and fight a losing battle. No matter what I said, Linda would justify his presence in her head. And on
