MasukThe expression which sat on Arthur’s face the moment he spotted the pills in my hand was utter shock, such pills many rogues have fought to the death to get and many, have attempted to rob Buddy just to get them. Even father had traded all of our food one winters day to get one single pill for himself, so now I stood with a whole packet in my hand, it was as though Arthur, had frozen in place. Snapping out of his trance in that moment with his eyes turning deadly, he begins to stride towards me in order to swipe the pills away but Leo, who was already on edge and seemed to loath this man’s existence, lifts his leg up and sends a kick full of power right into Arthur’s stomach, sending him flying backwards. “Walk towards my mate in that manner again and I will not hesitate to rip each limb from that disgusting body of yours.” Leo growled in such a loud and threatening manner, his body pulling mine so close into his while his eyes were black, his wolf wanted full control who did not ca
Even though I wanted to wait with Buddy for as long as I could, I knew Hannah could be in such danger which was only growing even further the longer we kept her there. So, with the pills held behind my back in their box and Leo, beside me with his own look of anger and possessiveness, I lead the group deeper into no man’s land and towards where Arthur calls home. On the way to Buddy, I ensured to keep them on the outskirts of no man’s land, I didn’t need us to draw any unnecessary attention to ourselves before I had a chance to speak with Buddy and find out who was keeping Hannah. So, the moment we walked into the more populated area of no man’s land, the eyes from those I lived among looking to me with shock and surprise and some, deepest anger and suspicion of those walking behind me, my family and Leo got their first real taste of rogue life. Reaching the river which ran through no man’s land offering us all water, I find a man known as Peter, a rogue around my age who was also f
Leading Leo, my family and Hannah’s father deep into the deepest section of no man’s land, the woods around us began to slip into darkness as the sun sat meters from slipping behind the trees. Even though this fact could terrify me due to the darkness, this place was somewhere I lived for almost twenty years of my life, I had become accustomed to the darkness hidden within the tress but I am not only talking about the light, but the heaviness was also somehow even darker. Leo refused to release my hand from his for a single moment, his eyes also scanning our surroundings for any rogue who could pose us a problem, due to how dangerous this situation we were walking into could be for Hannah, I insisted that the guards who follow Leo and I around to ensure our safety stayed back. We needed to somewhat blend in as much as we could until we knew where Hannah was being kept, we didn’t need the rogue who took her getting spooked and doing something rash to avoid punishment. “Do you know wh
All I could seem to do was stare in shock and disbelief as this man explained to Ethan how he and his daughter Hannah were playing, he turned his back on her for not even a minute and when he turned back, she was gone. Frantic, he looked around his garden calling her name thinking she was messing around and hiding somewhere, but the moment he heard her cry and looked out into no man’s land, a man held his daughter with a sick smile on his lips, before he shifted and raced with Hannah deep into the woods. Watching how this man pleaded with Ethan to get his men together to get his daughter back broke my heart but in some odd say, also allowed a deep feeling of anger and protectiveness over this little girl that I didn’t even know. Turning my head into the woods which led towards no man’s land, it was as though my body and wolf were pushing me through there. “You’re about to be Queen Elise, we need to find that little girl and save her!” My wolf demanded in my mind also seeming to be b
Spending the remainder of the day with my family, speaking about the past and looking through so many large books filled to the brim of photos from when I lived here, any other thought surrounding my life or why I was taken was gone. It felt as though little Elsie, who was ripped away from her family and thrown into a life of pain and darkness, was able to creep back in and feel the one thing she never had since that day, safe. Walking out of the pack house and into the chilling Spring air, the sun began to set behind the trees just ahead of me, the world around us beginning to settle down for the night. I couldn’t help but smile looking around the area, even as a rogue, this was always my favourite time of day, not only because the sky looked beautiful sending an orange glow through the land, but it was peaceful. While Leo chatted with my parents making their way through the corridors behind me, my eyes drift Ethan, stood off to the side of the pack house with his hands in his po
The moment those words left my lips, Leo’s eyes which held irritation in them already due to the thought of this Simon individual and the already, dead traitors, seemed to grow even more deadlier at the thought of anybody coming into the palace and taking me from him. His hand, which was already around my shoulders holding me, pulled me so close to him that all of my body pressed against his, whilst his chest rumbled with a growl and his eyes turned pitch black. “No simple-minded shifter will ever have the opportunity to take you away from me, I will rip each limb from their disrespectful torso and shove it down their throat until they choke.” His voice full of power and authority roared through his chest, my family having no choice but to bow their heads in submission to their King due to his voice, while I looked up still in a state of shock that this Simon man could very well be my grandfather. “Do you have some kind of photo of your father so we can see if it’s the same guy?
The mark induced sleep, was the deepest and most restful sleep I believe I had ever gotten, my body was so deprived of energy due to the mark taking everything, not even the regular flashback which seemed to take ahold of my mind whenever I was at rest appeared, my brain was able to shut off comple
My heart continued to pound so fast and hard in my chest, it was as though I was running in some intense marathon but in reality, I hadn’t moved from my spot on Leo’s lap. The way he leaned even closer to my mark and continued with his delicate kisses around that spot, wanting to fill my body with
I was soon led out of that blooded ballroom by Wesley through another hidden door, those inside forced to wait within until Leo gave the order for them to leave. But as I walked down those back halls of the palace, one’s which weren’t included in the initial tour from Leo due to their secrecy, my b
Once I had blurted out what I believed this man could have done, Leo’s deadly eyes left mine for a moment and looked over to the man who had been thrown to the floor by three guards. Leo’s hands seemed to tighten around me with this thought in mind, the breaths leaving his lips no longer in a swirl
