She Was The Queen Chapter Thirty-Five
"Roman?" A deep voice called.I froze with meat dangling from my mouth."Khai?" I questioned silently and looked back.I wasn't supposed to wake him. Who else did I wake up?"What's wrong?"The impulse to lie was there but the truth was stronger, it just rolled out of me."I had a nightmare.""About?""The Azraels." I bit into the meat and blood oozed out of the corner of my lips. I groaned at my terrible presentation."They won't hurt you-""You don't know that," I shot at him."You're safe here."He lied, he had to be. He was just doing that thing people did when someone was sad, afraid and confused. Say the opposite."The Azraels won't come here, they are outnumbered."He boasted about his humongous pack. It surely was the largest pack I've ever seen but the Azraels were strong. Deadly."He's coming back," I stated."He won't. He ran away because he was outnumbered. We are bigger. Stronger.""He's probably planning something big. Something dangerous and he will destroy us," I found

I burned like a star. Endless upon endless combustions of passion fuelled by the bottomless well of my desire. I had only gazed down that well before, I didn't know my waters ran that deep. I was in a frenzy. Conscious yet not willing to reign myself back out of it. I pulled him closer to me. I could tell he was in full control, he, himself wanted this. I traced my hands all over his defined upper body, feeling down to the shapes of his abdominal muscles. So well-made he was.His hands went under my shirt and he gripped my breast under the cage they called a brassiere. The sensation my body gave out whenever he touched me, was enhanced when he touched me there.I kissed his collarbone, making him moan, finding this as his primary soft spot. I'd never done this before but my body knew where to kiss, where to touch as if it had been written into the fibres of my being. We were in indulgence.His breaths tickled my neck and chest as he pulled my shirt off, leaving me in the colourful bra

Khai’s presence entered the room and eased into bed. My back was to him and I pretended to sleep. His warmth inched closer and closer until his arms wrapped around my body. I moved myself out of his arms.“I knew you weren't asleep.”“I thought we agreed on no touching in bed.”“I thought that after our make-out session, all rules were gone.”I could hear him smirking through his voice.“I just want to grieve in silence and... in space.”I came here to cry alone.“Don’t you want to stop grieving, haven’t you had enough?”My head snapped in his direction. His head rested on his palm. I didn't have the words.“I want you now,” Khai said softly.I had assumed he was an impatient person but now I knew.“That’s selfish," I stated.Anger simmered in my belly and crawled up my throat like bile. If I stayed there I would say things I didn't mean. I got up from the bed.“Where are you going?” he asked as I opened the door and shut it behind me.Inconsiderate bastard. Impatient prick. Insensiti

Grace never left her room. She just stopped going out. I bet the stench was putrid.Mom always left food for her at the door and she would open only for that. The same person who allowed her to stay didn't even talk to her. I only saw Grace if I woke up early enough to find her heading to the shower. Very early."So Grace stays?" an elder asked.We sat in a meeting, me and of all elders of the pack were in the living room. It had been two weeks since the treaty was broken. Schedules clashed and there never came a time for everyone to come together until then. Things were always slow here."Yes," I sighed heavily.I stood in the middle and they all sat on the couches."No punishment?" another asked."The Luna prescribes we don't.""So you let your Luna control you?" An old friend of my father asked from the corner.I growled under my breath and sneered at him. I knew they would see it that way."She doesn't control

Elders gathered around us in a crooked circle. The snow was weak beneath us, it melted completely with each step. Icicles melted and snow shook off trees at the slightest touch. News had spread and a couple of pack members came from their homes, even Audrey was there. Roman and I stood in the midst, a knife in her hand. My grandfather stood closest to us.We'd put contingencies at play. I made my grandfather vow that if I died they would not harm Roman but let her go free."You know," she said lowly, only loud enough for me alone to hear.Her long eyelashes brushed her cheeks, and she gazed up at me with bright, beautiful eyes. I couldn't wait to see her in the spring."My mother told me I was special but I've never really known for myself. Either we look awesome or like fools."I squeezed her wrists to comfort her."I don't care what we look like."Her eyes filled with hope and a glimmer of affection and she looked away."Trag

Khai was glorious. He glowed like a black moon but one that emitted its own light. He was larger than he was before and his eyes were now green. I thought it would wear off after he turned back but he remained like that. The power overwhelmed his body and when it wore out he collapsed. Hopefully, when he wakes up he will be himself again.“Roman,” Jacob called.I was in Walter’s room where Khai lay unconscious on the bed. The harsh light spotlighted his handsome face. Walter was also the only one I felt comfortable confiding in. I liked spending time with Yolanda but I had learned quickly that she couldn't be trusted with much.Jacob knocked on the door.“Our grandfather wants to see you.”I followed Jacob to the living room where the elders had gathered once more. They told him to leave.“Take a seat, Roman,” Khai’s grandfather said.His name was Emiliano and his skin was like old saddle brown leather. I thought he looked handsome for his age. I could see where Khai got it from.I to

When I went to the kitchen, the house was silent. The elders had left and I found Eddie in there."Luna?" he asked with concern in his tone. I couldn't tell if he was genuinely concerned or just faking it because I was right before him. Last time, Khai told me he thought I was a dust rat."How is school?" I asked him.This was the standard question for Eddie and Kyle, a question everyone asked them."Not good," he replied. "At this rate, I don't think I'll make it to university."I opened the fridge and took out some leftovers from last night."Oh no," I said. What else could I say?It went quiet between us."Say, do you feel the unsettling presence of this house? Like a dark energy?"He looked up from his homework and scrunched his nose."I don't think so."What did I expect?Linda came in and started preparing dinner. I sat beside Eddie and watched her. It sure did suck having nothing to do. Back home River and I always got water from the well and every night I did the dishes. Here

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

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
