Agatha noticed him walking around and asked, “What-What are you doing here?” “What do you mean?” asked Austin, turning around to look at her. “Don’t you have your own room to go to?” Austin frowned and paused for a mere second. He walked over to her and asked, “Are you trying to kick me out?” “Well, it’s been a long day, and I’m tired.” “Okay then do what you need to do.” He turned back to look around her room. Observing the furnitures and drawers. He kept looking to assure everything is complete for her needs. “I would like to take a rest now,” said Agatha, putting her hands on her hips. She was not liking his constant prescence. “Oh. Go ahead then, rest.” Austin was waving his hands at her. Encouraging her to get on her side of the bed. Agatha’s brows narrowed slightly at him. She asked, “So?” “So?” asked Austin, questioning Agatha back. He flipped around after he was completely content with the arrangement of the room. He fixed his clothes to make sure everything was neat b
In the early morning Agatha woke up to see Austin’s face close to her. She was startled by his closeness and screamed, “Ahh.” “What? What is it?” asked Austin. He looked around and didn’t see any assassin or anyone but them. Agatha grabbed the blanket and pulled it up to cover her body. “What-What are you still doing here?” “What do you mean?” “Aren’t you supposed to be out and about already?” “It’s not even dawn yet.” Agatha looked around and saw that it was still dark outside. “Go back to sleep,” groaned Austin. “What?” gasped Agatha. “Are you going back to sleep, or do you need me to come help you.” Austin looked at her sleepily. “Don’t. Don’t touch me.” He leaned on his hand and smile, “I will if you don’t sleep.” “Okay. Okay. I will go back to sleep.” She lay back down on her side and closed her eyes. She tightened the blanket around her and pulled the blanket more towards her. Austin, feeling the cold, tugged the blanket back to him. “Stop pulling the blanket.” “Yo
They were both seated at the table. The maids were bringing in their dishes of food. As soon as the plates stopped coming, they both started to eat. "There's something I want to say to you," said Austin, cutting into his meat. "What is it your majesty," said Agatha. "Don't call me that when we're alone." "What?" "Call me by my name." "It wouldn't be appropriate." "What wouldn't?" "Calling you by your first name." "Why is that?" "We're not that close." "You're my wife." "Contracted." "So?" "So, I shouldn’t or else we would be close.”’ “What?” “Haven’t you heard, by calling each other by their first name will make the two person be closer to each other.” “So? What’s wrong with that?” “You wouldn’t want that would you?” “Why?” asked Austin, eating his piece of steak. “Well, especially when you’re going to be closer to my sister-” "You and I legally married so we must act our part,” said Austin, cutting in on her sentence. "But on paper-" "I know what it says. But i
A FEW DAYS LATER"Report," said a guard."What is it?" asked Austin."I don't know your majesty. I was just told that it was from King Leonardo.""King Leonardo?""Yes. It's an urgent message for you, King Austin.""Two letters?""Yes. One is for you and the other is for Princess Agatha."Austin took the letters. He accidentally opened up the letter for Agatha and read it. When he finished the letter, he became angry. He pounded his fist on the table."Your majesty, the letter you're reading is for your luna.""She is not my luna," growl Austin."Yes. I'm sorry.""Go away.""What is it?" asked Grump."That sly old man," said Austin.Grump took the letter from Austin's hand and read it. His eyes widened and he asked, "Your majesty, what is the meaning of this?""Beats me.""Do you think he is planning something by saying this?""Of course, he is. He always does.""What do you think it is?""I don't know. But he's using his unloved daughter as his watch owl.""Do you think her own fathe
Agatha’s tears dripped down her cheeks. Again, no one will believe her. Everyone will continue to judge her. Hate her. Accusing her. No one will take one moment to see if she’s telling the truth or not. Just hearing the word curse is enough to make a person look away from her. She wrapped her arms around her legs and curled into a ball. She cried softly in the dripping rain. "Your majesty," said Grump."What?" asked Austin. His pen was still moving on his paper. "Um…” "What?” “Well…” Grump wasn’t sure how to tell Austin about Agatha’s situation. Austin was annoyed with Grump’s hesitation and asked, “What is it that you keep on hesitating about?""It's just that Princess Agatha…""What about her?""Well, she's still out there.""So?""Well, it's raining.""What?" asked Austin, looking at Grump. BOOM! The lightning strike. "She’s still where you left her.” “And?” “It’s been raining for quite a while now.” “And?” “Well, I’m just saying that Princess Agatha is probably drenched
Austin was shocked that Agatha was able to dodge the arrow at such accurate shooting. The person shooting was probably a skill shot for the arrow was meant to kill. He looked up into the tree and could see someone in there. He then turned to look at Agatha. “What an incredible speed of reflex,” thought Austin. “For you to be able to dodge at the last second, you’re pretty good.” "Whoa. I didn't expect that from your mate at all," said Grump."Me either,” said Austin, frowning. “You have silent footing, and you have such sharp hearing too.” Agatha looked at the tree line and said, "Come out.” The rain have lightened up and it wasn’t so heavy as before. Agatha could clearly see the person hiding in the tree. From the branches of the tree emerged a woman. She was in black clothing. She had short purple hair and a mask covering her face. She jumped down from the tree and walked towards Agatha. "Well, what a beautiful woman you are," said the woman. Agatha didn’t flinch. “You’re
"Oh. A black she-wolf. So, you are sent from my husband,” said Agatha. Austin's eyes widened. How could his own wolf be sent to kill her. Who is it that wants to hurt her under the pretense of him? He frowned wondering. Grump also gasped and asked, “Your majesty, what is the meaning of this?” “I don’t know,” answered Austin. “Someone is setting you up.” “It seems so.” “But why?”"No,” said the woman. “I am not. But if it makes you feel better, sure I was sent by your alpha, the king of the black wolves.” Austin clenched his fist. “This woman! She dare to frame me.” He stood up and was going to approach her when Grump stopped him. “Your majesty wait, let’s observe for a few more minutes. Let’s see if she will slip and tell who she’s working for.” Austin nodded. “Alright, but one more outburst of lies, then I will personally kill her myself.” “Okay. For I too, won’t stand for someone to falsely frame you, my king,” said Grump, nodding his head. “Ha. So, it wasn’t him,” said
"You're a black wolf, meaning that you belong to my husband's clan. The possibility of him sending you to kill me is still possible," said Agatha. She sighs and whispers, "He betray his words." Austin clenched his fist as she was still thinking it was him. She was still accusing him of sending the assassination after her. “I didn’t do it. I didn’t send that woman after you. I wasn’t trying to assassinate you. I never thought of it once. Humph. I didn’t do it now, nor did I do it before” he thought. The rain stopped, and snow started falling. Agatha walked away from the pile of dust that was swept away by the cold breeze. She walked towards the stream. She held her hand out to the falling white snow. Austin stared at his wife trying to comprehend who his wife really was. She was locked up in a cell but was able to use magic. Not just simple magic, but some of the most powerful magic. She's probably by far one of the most powerful female wolf he had ever seen. Was it because of the
