The Golden Prince and his Witch, Book 2

Alpha Prince Saint[Saint 18 year old Bellatrix 15 year old]I stood waiting for Bell at the bottom of the stairs, finally our parents had agreed to allow Bell to accompany me to the summer Ball. Of course my Beta wasn’t best impressed by the fact his sister was going cause I wouldn't be hanging out with him and Angelo. Angelo was pissed because Denu had refused to accompany him, in her words ‘No thanks, I would rather pluck my nose hair’ So my big bad Gamma has been sulking for days. Danu is Bell’s sister but she is different, she has no interest in anything except magic. I overheard my Aunt tell my mum she had caught Denu talking to the spirits more than once, and something about dark magic. Honestly it didn't surprise me, she had always been quirky but Angelo was drawn to her and the only time I see her smile is at my goofy Gamma. I hear the sound of heels clicking on the marble floor pulling me from my thoughts. Looking up, time stills around us, she stands there looking down

BellatrixMy heart is racing as Angelo pulls me past Saint, I don’t even glance at him. I concentrate on Angelo. He really was a Godsend, leaning in I whisper thank you. He just gives me a squeeze and kisses the top of my head and keeps moving up to the floor my family are on. Stopping before we get to the room he spins me to look at him.“I know he hurt you, Trixy but honestly I have never seen someone so upset. All he has done is work, train and mope around talking about how much he missed you. Don’t be too hard on him. He swears he never did anything and we all know what she is like” I smile at the big goofy guy who for some reason is crazy about my sister. Leaning up on my tiptoes I kiss his cheek, then step around him and head into the room that is full of life as everyone chats. Denu spots me come in and her eyes narrow as they flick to Angelo, I roll my eyes at her as he goes and drops into the sofa beside her, throwing his arm around her shoulders. Of course Denu shrugs him

BellatrixI hardly slept, everytime I drifted off my magic thrashed against me like it knew something was coming. I would wake up soaked in sweat, shivering. I have just got out of the shower, sitting in front of my dressing table when there is a knock at my bedroom door. I flick my wrist and the door opens to Denu.“You know I could be anyone” She says as she walks in and shuts the door with her own flick of her wrist. I roll my eyes at her and smile, looking at her through the mirror.“I knew it was you, our magic is connected, remember” She just scoffs before coming to stand behind me, inspecting the small amount of concealer I am applying under my eyes. “Rough night?” She asks as she starts to braid my hair. I just nod, feeling exhausted.“He hardly sleeps, you know. I often see him at night out running or sitting on his balcony” She says, meaning Saint, but never mentioning his name. I dont reply, I don’t actually know what to say for the first couple of months I couldn't sleep

SaintI turn away from her door to find Amphion standing with his arms crossed, looking pissed as he watches me leave his sisters room. I don’t say anything, if I am honest I feel exhausted and the last thing I need is an argument or lecture from my friend. He just shakes his head and goes back into his room, leaving me feeling like I had done something wrong.Bell was so cold at times it killed me but I knew I deserved it, I would watch the realisation appear on her face and the walls would slam into place to protect herself. I had only just sat on the end of my bed when a soft tap came at my door, I can feel my mother before she even enters.I smile as my tiny mother walks in, she may be small but this woman can take down the toughest of men easily. Her gold eyes are so similar to my own, she smiles at me, her warmth and love wraps around me as it always does when she smiles at me.“Hey, Mumma, what's up?” I say as I place my keys and phone on the side table. She comes and sits next

Alpha Prince SaintI won't lie I feel lighter since she agreed to a date, training has been good even having a laugh with Angelo and Amphion plus some of the higher ranking warriors. We are just finished when I spot Denu heading over towards Angelo, he takes the water she offers him and kisses her forehead. Of course she bats him away, but the small smile is there on her face.I hope one day soon Bell will be doing the same, back to how it used to be. A wave of guilt and rage washes over me, I don’t even realise she is so close until she clears her throat. I look up at her as she scrutinises me with her glare before she crosses her arms over her chest.“You're taking Bellatrix on a date?” I just nod and take a sip of my water “If you hurt her again I’ll make your dick shrivel up and fall off, and no it’s not a threat, it’s a promise” I look into her eye, I don't know why but I feel like she has just put a hex on me. “I won’t hurt her, I will die before I allow harm to come to her” Den
