Ayra and Fjall joined the party, finding one way or another to be glued to the rest of their team as they laughed and cheered themselves.“Cillian,” Alana called, “don’t tell me you’re too mature for this.”Cillian shook his head, “you have all gone mad,” he continued riding ahead whilst the others laughed behind him.They walked for some more miles, laughing and talking amongst themselves, successfully granting Freya the complete pleasure of having friends.Oh, they were not friends, they were a team.They were teammates. Their loyalty to each other, the respect being possessed of the other was quite commendable. They were teammates who laughed together and who did not judge her for the actions of her mother.Freya understood that laughing together and making jokes did not mean that their relationship had magically gotten better. She knew without being told that the reason why Cillian didn’t join in was because he still possessed some reservations for her and maybe for Alana.She wa
“I cannot help but feel really broken. I feel this in places I never thought I could feel emotions. Why didn’t she just kill me?”“You can’t die that easily,” Cillian found himself answering, too late to stop himself.Mordeu scoffed, “So you’re saying she must’ve tried to.” He found himself laughing. “My mother must’ve tried to kill me.”His head threw back as he laughed in the night like a maniac. He had seen how Melissa treated Fjall, hell, how Melissa treated him, and he knew what a mother should look like, how she should act, how greatly she loved and adored her child.He knew that no matter what Fjall’s fur looked like, Melissa would not think to abandon him. No matter what people said about him, what she read, she would not leave him. That no matter what, she would stand behind him because he was her son.But at the slightest chance that his own mother got, she abandoned him.Cillian watched this tragedy with a heavy heart, silently blaming himself for this misfortune that land
Mordeu lifted his face from the earth and rose to his feet. The punch had been so heavy that his whole body had been knocked to the ground. However, the much-expected pain only lasted for a split second, and the bruise that was meant to form on his features healed back up at the speed of light.Mordeu frowned.He maintained a stance of defense as he watched and waited for another strike from Freya, who just stood and watched him.“Are you letting me beat you up?” she asked. “Is this some kind of punishment?”Mordeu lifted an eyebrow in question. “You have only punched me twice, I’m not letting you beat me.”“Yeah, but those two times you were totally unprepared and lost in thought.” She pointed out the truth.Mordeu shrugged. “And it’s my loss. In battle, one must be focused on the task at hand and not get distracted by anything. It’s my fault for allowing my emotions to become a distraction.”Freya rolled her eyes. “And this stupid stance you’re taking?”Mordeu looked down at his fee
Granted, there hasn’t been much going on with Mordeu, especially back at home. All he did was mess around with some girls, some widows, some witches and it was just sex with nothing there and he did inform his brother of it.However, when it came to expressing his feelings, talking about what was truly going on with him, Mordeu’s lips were sealed.Not today.“We need to talk!” Fjall stated as he noticed that Mordeu had finally freed himself from the evil clutches of the uniform.Mordeu sighed, “there’s nothing to talk about.”“Yes, there is,” Fjall advanced. “I don’t know why you prefer to keep things from me but it isn’t pretty.”Mordeu had his back to Fjall and it was the perfect position to roll his eyes without Fjall seeing him, “what am I keeping from you?”“Well, for one, talk about what Kai meant earlier, because you cannot just tell me there’s nothing. You would not have gotten angry if it was really nothing.”This was what Mordeu hated, this was what he knew Kai’s big mouth w
“I’m telling you to get married to him, it’s best for our kingdom.”Freya sighed and walked away from her mother, turning her back to her, “that can only happen if Ayra has not gotten a mate yet.”“And has she?”Freya shook her head, “I’m not friends with her but I’m sure she hasn’t gotten her mate yet, she was quite touchy with Kai on our way here.”Clarion frowned, “find out more and if possible, destroy whatever relationship they have.”Freya nodded, “definitely!”Alana, for some unknown reason, felt as if she was the only one who felt the tension in the air, but as she looked ahead to her teammates, how quiet they suddenly were, how Ayra was not glued to Fjall nor how Cillian and Mordeu were not whispering to each other as always, she started to get the idea that maybe she wasn’t the only one.She sighed out loudly.“I cannot believe Queen Clarion could do such a thing,” she said, halting the footsteps of everyone.They had been on their way back to the training grounds from the A
Clarion spun around, the sleeves of her regal outfit fluttering in the air, she had a glare on her face as she watched Kai who slowly approached her, possessing no regard for whether Clarion had any plan to attack him or not.All that he cared for was taking out his punishments on the Queen.For the rest, they looked shocked, all except Cillian. Alana, Ayra, and Fjall focused their gazes on Clarion and Kai, hoping that the tension between them does not lead into a fight of some sort. However, they were well aware that Clarion could not let her rage get the best of her. If she were to attack Kai, then that would be the end of her leadership. Whether or not the relationship between the kingdoms were good or not, Kai was not pledged to any Kingdom.As the leader of the Luna Cavalry, he was peeled from a certain kingdom, he was a werewolf and as such a citizen of Rosevelt, but by choosing to become a member of the Luna Cavalry, it meant his loyalty towards Rosevelt ceased. Now, he was not
