Stephen
I don't know how things turned so drastically, I was supposed to be the one to help the King rule our world. I wasn't supposed to be the one to rule, I never dreamt of it and I didn't want it, I have more pressing matters to take care of, I have to ensure that we find our father and my sister's mate before they do anything more than they already have. I have a very bad feeling, I want to make sure everyone is safe, from what I have understood, my father isn't the one to be underestimated. Being a King would also mean I would have to give an heir which I definitely can't, I know I should have explained things, but I wasn't ready to tell everyone the truth. If I did tell them the truth they would ask me to possible take a chosen mate, I won't do that, that would be unfair because I know I could never love anyone, and I can't have the one I love. I sighed as I walked to the garden in front of the pack house, I quietly sat down on the grass,
DarcyI couldn't believe his words when he said his mate died a few days after his eighteenth birthday, I knew he was upset about something with the way he walked out of the meeting room without explaining anything. I feel bad for him, it must have been a painful experience, we might not even know how it feels to live knowing that you had a mate, but lost them before you even met them. I remember how he would look away every time I would talk to him about his mate, I feel like an ass to be so inconsiderate, I would have known if I was not busy crying for my sorry self."I don't know what to say, Stephen, we can't possibly imagine what you went through and go through every time we talked about your mate. I am sorry for not being a good friend, I could have possibly seen your pain if I wasn't busy feeling sorry for myself" I said as a lone tear slipped down my eye"It's not your fault, you couldn't have kn
All of us stood in our place, none of us knowing what to do or say, I was not sure if everything that happened is real or not, I wish it's nothing more than a dream. There were numerous thoughts going through my mind and I wanted to scream out of frustration, I slowly lifted my head to see everyone looking at me worriedly accept Stephen, he looked shocked and it seemed like he was lost in his own world. I didn't notice I was crying until Dylan wiped my tears wrapping me in a tight hug."It's alright princess" he cooed in my years"Darcy?" I heard mom's voice, I broke away from Dylan's warm embrace to see mom looking at me with a small smile"Sweetie, I know it's not easy for you to accept everything, I also know after everything you wouldn't want to have a man anywhere near you. But, it's time for you to move on, you have been more of a daughter to me than my son's mate. It's his loss because he lost someone as precious
It has been a few days since our meeting with the Elders and the council, Stephen and I have tried everything to avoid each other. I really didn't have to work a lot because he was trying to maintain as much distance as he could from me. This whole thing with the council has made things very complicated and not only complicated, things have become awkward between us as well. I felt bad because I thought I was losing a friend, he has helped me a lot when I was new here, from what I found out he was also the one to take the investigation in his hands to get me out.I will forever be grateful to him for all he had done, but I don't think we would be able to start our lives together. I don't think I will be able to love anyone in my life again, it was unfair to him, he definitely deserved better than me. I was stressed and desperately wanted to get out of this situation, I even went to ask Dylan to consider taking over as he was now Lavi's mate. I know it would so m
I woke up with a start, I looked around to see I was in a different place, it was as if I was in a different world altogether. I was laid on the soft grass bed, I was surrounded by a beautiful garden, in front of me was a river by the mountain. It looked like something out of a fairytale, colourful flowers butterflies and the earthy scent of a forest. I immediately clam down as my eyes wandered around taking in the beauty of the place I was in, a few feet away from me was a black furry figure. I squinted my eyes to try and see what it was, but I couldn't see clearly as everything was foggy. I got up walking towards the figure when I was a few steps away from the figure, I could now see that it was a wolf, it was a black wolf and it looked familiar, a gasp left my mouth when I realized who it was. It was Cleva, I stood in my place shocked.I don't know where I am or how I reached here, what's more, surprising is that I can see my wolf here, I must be hallucinatin
StephenWe are currently trying to contact every pack in my office, life has been a mess, everything has changed in a blink of an eye. We were supposed to put this case forward to make sure Darcy gets justice, I don't know how I managed to get involved in everything. Things are awkward between us and I try everything possible to stay away from Darcy. I love Darcy, I really do, but I know she doesn't love me, I know she might never love me, I don't want to lose the friendship I have earned because of this mess. I will make sure to protect her and ensure she gets what she deserves by staying behind her as her friend. I don't want her to make a decision to be with one of us only because she doesn't have a choice.As if all this was not enough now we have to deal with my father, we have absolutely no idea what he is up to. He definitely is not up to any good, I think Darcy is right and my father is coming back to get what he des
DarcyI am for once at peace, I know what I wanted to do, I had to choose and I know who my choice was going to be. I chose Stephen, I know there will be people who will think I should be with my true mate, but how can I be with someone who has only ever hurt me. After everything, he still didn't let me stay in peace, he would throw constant threats at me saying he would make me accept him no matter what he has to do. He was furious because he was ripped off the throne, he said I was responsible, he doesn't think he should be punished for his actions. I know he was wronged too, I never denied that face, however, there were things that were as clear as day in front of his eyes, but he always chose to ignore them.He has hurt his own family because he decided to blindly trust Pat, he always knew that he had a mate, he still decided it was okay for him to love someone else. What tops it all is that I had to lose my child, my fi
We left Lavi's room after our discussion with everyone, Dad wants to make sure the ceremonies are done as soon as possible. I am nervous to be very honest, everything is happening quickly. Well, the Moon Goddess did tell me that we will have to act fast, we are going to be meeting again tomorrow about what we have to do, with a war making its way towards us, we are going to have to work hard to ensure everyone's safety."Uncle Davis has announced it to the pack through the mindlink" I heard Stephen speak beside pulling me out of my thoughts"He is fast" I said and he chuckled"He indeed is" he replied and I laughed a little"Darcy?" he called, I turned to find him looking at me intently"Are you sure?" he asked and I looked at him confused"Sure about what?" I voice my confusion"About this" he said motioning at the both of us&nbs
We were currently waiting in the meeting room for the Elders and the council to arrive, yesterday was stressful after our encounter with Colton. He has been in the hospital for a few hours and then sent home, Stephen felt guilty for hurting him, they have spent their childhood together and were friends before things took an ugly turn. I have seen Stephen always respect Colton, although there were situations where he wanted to argue but kept quiet out of respect for his King. I know this is not going to be a change he can easily accept, I just hope he doesn't push himself too much. I sighed as I looked up to see everyone sitting quietly, possibly thinking about what is going to happen next, we turned when we heard the sound of the door opening and closing. Both Elders and the council's members arrived, we stood up as we welcomed them, we settled on our seats as Elder James cleared his throat."First, I would like to inform everyone that Darcy and Stephen have acc
