I paced my bedroom; I had just finished getting ready; my belly was much bigger today, almost as if it tripled in size. Nick called the doctor and said he’d bring his equipment for after the coronation to make sure everything was alright. Mandy and Amy were excited over my already huge belly, but honestly, I felt like a whale every time I saw myself in the mirror. Nick came in and kissed my cheek, “You look gorgeous.” He told me, I smiled,
“Thank you, my darling.”
“Are you ready?” He asked, I felt so sick to my stomach but I nodded anyway. We walked together to the ballroom but I had to stop for a moment, holding my stomach. “What’s wrong?” Nick asked, I shook my head,
“Little one’s moving around a lot.” I replied. Once I composed my
The moonlight shone brightly upon the lake, the stars glistening in the distance as the light danced across my skin. I sat there silently, watching the ripples from the fish in the lake. It wasn’t long until I heard a rustle in the trees behind me, it was my brothers. I was sixteen, my Father, the Alpha of our pack was meeting with other Alphas about a problem with one of the neighbors, a clan of vampires. Our eldest brother, Jackson, was there because, after this year, our dad is planning to retire as Alpha. My brothers sat around me, told me about what they had heard which was to go straight to the leader of the vampires. It was dangerous for us to fight the vampires; so many good wolves have died due to them, including my Mother, our Luna. Dad hasn’t been the same since that tragic night... I, on the other hand, grew from it. That very night, I shifted for the first time. It should have been a happy ni
I paced my room, it had been two years since my father told me I would be marrying an Alpha’s daughter. Even though I had never met her, I felt a strange connection to her, I couldn’t put my finger on what it was. She was turning eighteen this weekend; I knew she had to hate the idea of an arranged marriage, it would surprise me if she didn’t. I looked in my mirror, my ice blue eyes under my raven black hair drew the most attention; I wanted to look good for my fiance. There was a slight knock on my door, and my father walked in, “Son, are you ready?” I turned to face him, “I’m nervous. I hate that this is how I’m getting married.” I told him, but he sighed, “Nicholas, son, you know the prophecy, the son of a king and the daughter of an Alpha. If this union isn’t made, we return to a state of war. We already wasted enough time for the wolves wanting to
I paced around my room, pissed off to hell and back. How did they expect me to go through with this? How am I supposed to be happy with an arranged marriage? I could feel my wolf wanting to emerge and take control as I thought more and more about the prince and what was to become of my life. I slipped off my pale blue sundress and started the shower. I could feel the steam already; once I was completely naked, I hopped in, letting the water pierce my skin before washing my hair. I sighed, happy to relieve some of my stress. For the past two years, I've been thinking of ways to get out of this nightmare with no prevail. I don’t want to be the bride of a vampire; perhaps I could talk him into giving me another year? Doubtful. I hurried along with my shower then stepped out, wrapping a warm towel around my wet body. Glancing out the window, I see my father talking to the man I’m to marry; I must admit,
The next day, I got ready, dressing in a pair of black ripped jeans and a baby blue crop top and a pair of white converse, braiding my hair and putting on very light makeup. Once I was dressed, I saw it was nearly eleven so I grabbed my phone and made my way towards the office. There were chairs there, I could hear voices so I decided to sit while I waited. It wasn’t long before I heard a cheerful, “Good morning.” I looked up to see Nicholas and not too far behind him was his cousin, “I hope we didn’t keep you waiting too long.” He stated, I gave him a weak smile, “Not at all, it sounds like there’s a meeting going on in there so it’s fine.” he nodded, just then, the door opened and my brothers walked out, “Brothers, what’s going on?” The eldest of the triplets smiled at me while the other two started towards the bedrooms, “We’re planning a trip to some
I watched as my fiance slept in her corner of the car. I sighed, I know she doesn’t want to marry me, but the prophecy states that we must marry or else both of our people are doomed. Rick rolled down the divider halfway, “We should be there within the next hour.” I nodded, “Thanks, Rick. Inform the guards immediately, I don’t want to keep my parents waiting, they expect to meet Aiday upon our arrival.” “Already done.” I smiled, my cousin is always so prepared. I played on my phone for a few minutes, glancing back at my young bride-to-be. She’s so beautiful. I glanced back at my phone for a moment before I heard Aiday mumbling, I listened closer, but then she screamed. It scared me and I banged on the window which made Rick pullover. “Aiday, wake up, it’s a nightmare!” I shook her, tears began rolling down her fa
After a week, Aiday seemed to be getting used to her new life here. My parents finally calmed down and agreed to help us keep everything organized for the wedding, which my mother was extremely happy about. Since my sister came out and said that she would never marry, my mother was worried that she would never get the chance to help her daughter plan her wedding day; Aiday may not be her daughter, but she will be her daughter-in-law. Aiday and I hung out after I finished work; ever since I discovered that Aiday didn’t know the whole story of why she has to marry me, I’ve debated on telling her. I didn’t want there to be any secrets between us, but there is. I knocked on Aiday’s door with a bouquet of roses in hand; the moment Aiday opened the door, I had no words, “Hi Nick,” she said. I handed her the flowers, which took, smelling their scent, “Thank you, they’re beautiful.” I took her hand,
I woke up feeling pretty good. Nick took me out last night and it was awesome! A nice dinner, a bit of drama, and then I sang for the first time in months. I went to the bathroom and turned the shower on. There was just one thing about last night that I didn’t understand, why did I get so jealous of that waitress? I growled because of what she did. I stripped out of my pajamas and stepped into the shower, the water rolled down my breast to the shower floor. I sighed as the water hit my skin. Nick planned to take me to the home of the witches to see if we could find my mate sooner than my birthday a year from now. Wish he thought of this sooner but, oh well.Once I was dressed in a pair of black, ripped skinny jeans and a white crop top, I grabbed my flannel off the hook and slipped on a pair of converses before heading downstairs to eat breakfast. Nick was already downstairs, smiling the second
The moonlight shone bright overhead, I stood in the middle of a field; then a bright red light began to shine over me, I felt a sharp pain in my heart before collapsing to the ground. At the same moment, I saw wolves appear from the woods, Jackson, in his human form, leading them, then I saw the red eyes of the vampires appear from the other side of the woods, with the King leading them. I watched them, they were silent, and then both of them raised their fists in the air before yelling, “Charge!” At that moment, they began running; Jackson shifted as he ran. I screamed but nothing happened, the pain in me grew worse as I clutched the ground for support. My body was on fire as I turned onto my back and before I knew it, I felt my spirit leave my body…I screamed as I woke up, my body was trembling, the door burst open and the light came on without warning; once my eyes adjusted, I saw Ni
