With trepidations in our hearts, we all awaited the return of the king and prince Alden, I couldn't help but look forward to their return. The drums stationed in the city signalled that the king was back in the city, with that we were all asked, to go back to the kitchen to work with the maids, since everyone was busy running Helter skelter to make sure everything was running smoothly.Besides the atmosphere in the castle was lighter, because queen Alexia was happy for some reason. I guess because the king came back from the war victoriously the happiness was suspicious as I told my partner in crime, Reagan, who was doubtful, she blindly believed that the woman was simply happy and loved her husband.But then, if you know the royals you know they are never happy without a good reasons. After large preparations were made, we all watched as we saw, the king riding victorious on his horseback while no one saw prince Alden. Before I could contemplate it , we were called to serve the foo
Prince Alden was, taking swirling a glass of ale in his cup,when Cisca got to his chambers, "so he starts drinking very early in the morning thought Cisca. Drunkard, her wolf said in unison. " Do you know this is our mate" said her wolf," of course I know, but do I really want him as a mate no of course", Cisca couldn't stand the thought of having prince Alden as a mate she would rather stay single than be Mates with the jerk.Prince Alden sonorous voice interrupted her, musings ."Do you know why I called you""No your majesty" said Cisca" I called you because, I wanted to properly thank you for saving my life, without you I would be dead"I was surprised to see him humbly thanking, it blew me off a bit." It was nothing your highness, I just did my duty" " Anyways, thank you, if you need anything absolutely anything you can come to me"I snorted before saying "thank you sir".Never in this life would I ever ask of anything from you."You may leave"Prince Alden, watched the prett
Fist clenched and princess Amelia blushing with embarrassmet, kept quiet, and before prince stiles could reply, prince Alden asked the guards to move the carriage. Both prince stiles and princess Alexia tried making small talk with prince Alden but he didnât reply and when he did gave one worded answers. Since they were going to spend the night outside the castle prince stiles slept, while prince Alden pretended to be asleep by closing his eyes. Princess Amelia couldnât help but compare her husband prince stiles to prince Alden, she cursed her stupidity! She didnât know that prince Alden was to attend the meeting with the elders for the preparation of the hunt with them, if not she would have feigned an illness. Princess Amelia was furious! The fact that prince Alden was so indifferent to her made her angry, this was the man that said he loved her. He loved her and he was not angry that she was with his brother, she should have known that men were worthless. She could still remember
Princess Amelia's shuddered at the at the sound of her husband's voice. What the hell is this bastard doing here? She thought. Hadn't he done enough to her last night? It wasn't as if he cared about her to be asking such questions.She composed herself and turned quickly to him. Bowing her head, with a straight face, and meek tone she said. "I was just asking him about the plans for the hunt."Prince Alden wondered how a woman could just switch from being teary eyed to a docile lamb in a second. She could give great actresses a run for their money.Stiles arched his brow "Hmm and you didn't think to ask your husband? Pray tell what you would like to know?" Stiles said as he sauntered towards her. She wanted to hide behind Alden for protection, but remembered that the last time she tried to tell someone about his abuse, she was stripped naked and tortured by her husband. She was given no food and water for 4 days. She begged to die but her wish wasn't granted."It's nothing much your
At mid night, the king thought of his late wife. His first son Alden took the life of his precious jewel. They started having issues when he married Queen Alexia. He didn't intend to marry her. It was on one of the days he had a fight with the late Queen that he left in rage and went to have a drink. One thing led to another. She seemed to know what to say that night to comfort him. He fell for her tricks. Now that he thought about it, he could see that It was a stupid mistake. She got hooked and didn't want to leaver. He thought of how to discharge Alexia. By the time he discovered her cunniness and knew that they couldn't cope together, she was already pregnant and had to do the honorable thingThis drove a greater wedge between he and his late wife. She became distant everyday. He wasn't sure if she ever forgave him. Hell, he hasn't forgiven himself.It was indeed a very sad occurence in the pack when the Queen died from wolfsbane. She was lovable, had a great sense of humor. With
Something was wrong, Cisca couldn't place her finger on it. She could feel it."Maybe it's the mate pull." Ezra commented. I don't feel anything towards him."You do it's not just strong. It's still budding. He's your mate." She continued.There's something about the mate pull that the Moon goddess created it for mates to be in synchrony.""His wolf is yummy, masculine and strong. I bet he's strong down there, what do you think?" Ezra said with yearning as she pranced about."Eww, I don't want to hear it. You're such a pervert." Cisca said in mock disgust."And you're such a prude." Ezra replied playfully."He killed his mother, I can't be with a murderer." Cisca complained regretfully."You can't be so sure, those are just rumors." "Please, there's an element of truth in every rumor." Cisca responded in a brash tone."Mhmm, like the one about you sleeping with Martin, or the one about how it was your flirting with that bastard that made him want to rape you." Ezra retorted in a bras
The commotion drew Martin out of his thoughts. He was worried about Cisca, he hadn't seen her since the previous day. No one seemed to know where she was. Taking a long stride to see what was happening. He met his mother outside his room. She was not a morning person. Therefore her presence was a little shocking. It was still quite early."Hey mom." he greeted. With a bright smile, she responded "Morning son, how are you doing today?""I'm good." He answered warily. She seemed to be in high spirits and he tried to figure out what could possibly be the cause. There was nothing interesting going on in the pack that could warrant her excitement. "Forgive my manners, please come in." He added quickly.He noticed her shoulders were relaxed today as she walked into his room.Queen Nicky scanned the room. Martin left his room unchanged since he was a child. The only difference is that it is not as untidy as it used to be. He was no longer that playful and boisterous boy when he was youn
Queen Alexia moved to the window. Her eyes were blood shot. She was sleep deprived and finding it difficult to sleep at night.What could be the cause of her nightmare? She had been eating upstairs for two days. Her presence would soon be required by the king.The last one really scared her. It felt so real. It was messing with her mind. She had to tell somebody about her dream. Stiles wasn't around. She She called Sylvia to prepare a bath for her. She had to come out of this room. It contributed to sucking her energy.She wore one of her favorite gowns, powdered her face, sprayed some perfume to go with before going to face the king. She took a walk to the king's chamber.The guards at the door refused to grant her access. They said the king didn't want to be disturbed. This provoked her. They looked at themselves secretly when they told her. She knew they were hiding something. They expected an outburst but she gave them a polite smile, and turned back to her room. It shocked Sylvi
