Chapter Fourteen: Mission Accomplished Kayden POV: I couldn't help but steal glances at our little mate in her adorable light blue shimmery dress as we talked to her father and brothers. Her blonde hair was tied into a low bun, and she had a rhinestone choker and hairband on; she looked like the queen she was meant to be, but at the same time, a pup that was happy with life, carefree, laughing and gouging her mouth full of dessert from the dessert table. Jayden and I had smelt her the moment she entered the ballroom, that beautiful honey and roses scent, putting ours and our wolves' minds in a haze. She was so innocent, so pure, so cute. Goddess, we were so lucky! Even though we both wanted nothing more than to go to her and talk to her, we restrained ourselves. We couldn't have people knowing she was important; dad was right. We would put a target on her back; we would die if something happened to our little mate. It was only a matter of a few years, we would admire her from afar
Chapter Fifteen: Castle Tour Part One Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: I was jumping on my feet in excitement. I was super excited to get a tour of the castle. Even though I was a little sleepy with all the dessert and food I ate, I tried my best not to yawn. I always got sleepy when I overate, but I didn't want to miss the chance of seeing the castle. What if prince Kayden and prince Jayden were busy tomorrow and didn't have time to show me around after the coronation? I wanted my new friends to show me around and not anyone else. Plus, I think only they could help me make JJ happy by letting us look at the king's collection. Me, JJ and Rex followed behind his brothers as they led us out of the ballroom and down the corridor. Even though the hallways were now very quiet, but I still looked on, amazed and in awe of the place. It was so pretty. The crystal chandeliers on the ceilings looked like sparkling diamonds. Beautiful green plants were placed all over. I wanted to run ahead of
Chapter Sixteen: Castle Tour Part Two Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: I kept asking prince Kayden and prince Jayden where they were taking me, but they kept saying it was a surprise and I had to be patient. I even tried giving them my puppy eyes, but they only chuckled and ruffled my hair. Why weren't the puppy eyes working? They always worked! I would need to practice in the mirror soon; otherwise, how was I supposed to convince everyone at home when I wanted something? On the way to the surprise place, the princes showed me where the beta, gamma, and alpha quarters were. The east end and west end of the castles also, where all the visiting pack officials were staying because of tomorrow's ceremony. They even showed me where their rooms were but didn't take me inside. I really wanted to see what their rooms looked like; only then could I give them suggestions on how all the Disney princes and princesses were different. Even though I was team Disney castles before coming here, I wa
Chapter Seventeen: Forever and Always Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: The entire night I couldn't help but think about what JJ said. Why would he think I would forget about him? He was my best friend, my first friend. When everyone else was mean to me at school, he was the only nice one, and we had been friends way before that. Maybe I could convince him to stay with me here. I know he would agree, but how was I supposed to make our parents and, more importantly, the king and queen to let JJ stay? Maybe he could also try out for the scholarship, but I knew that was a long shot. He was more into warrior training than books and facts, while I was into both. Ugh! Maybe I could ask Rex to help me convince prince Kayden and prince Jayden to find a way for JJ to stay. But I needed to find a way, someway, somehow. I couldn't leave my best friend! With that thought in my mind, I fell asleep. ---------"Princess, wake up." I heard someone whisper in my ear as they stroked my hair. I didn't n
Chapter Eighteen: Coronation Part One Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: "Kiara, sweetheart, come on, it's getting late. You have to get ready for the coronation." I heard auntie Meg say again. After I and JJ had talked and made our pinky promise, we played for a bit in the playground. Rex even came out after a few minutes. But now that the coronation was about to start, Rex and JJ went to Rex's room to get ready; I wanted to go too, but they were talking about cars and bikes, and I really didn't wanna get bored. Plus, all my clothes were in my room, and Rex's room was very far from mine. So, I told them to go ahead, and I would meet them at the coronation after playing on the swings for a bit and getting ready. Turning around, I saw auntie Meg smiling at me and ushering me to come with her; I smiled back and was just about to get up when I remembered something. "Auntie Meg, did you already help JJ? You know he's terrible at choosing what to wear. He'll end wearing everything that
Chapter Nineteen: Coronation Part Two Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: I stepped back from prince Kayden and prince Jayden. They were scaring me. Why were they making those mean mommy faces? I didn't do anything wrong, nor did I make a secret stash for them to know about it. Not wanting to be rude, I apologized. "I'm sorry if I said something to offend your highnesses," I said. Prince Kayden and Prince Jayden took deep breaths, then bent down on their knees and came eye to eye with me. But instead of the mean mommy looks they had, they were smiling, not big sunshine-type smiles but small smiles; it was still better than the scary ones. "Kiki, we're sorry we scared you. You didn't do anything wrong we just remembered something." Said, prince Kayden I breathed a sigh of relief. Thank the goddess. If they were mad, I couldn't ask them about the scholarship. Taking a look at prince Jayden and prince Kayden, they both seem to be in an okay mood. I should ask them now about the warri
Chapter Twenty: Coronation Part Three Kiara, at age nine Kayden POV: It took everything in me to contain my wolf when our little mate mentioned keeping that pup back at the palace while she did her scholarship. As much as we knew it was a harmonious relationship and they were pups but fuck if the jealousy was any less. The bond between us grew by the minute for Jayden and me, and our little mate didn't even know who we were to her. She wasn't to feel the bond a few days before her eighteenth, and even then, she wouldn't know for sure. As much as Jayden and I were hyped and thought we could get through the years without any hurdles, that was proving to be difficult with every passing hour. Our little mate seemed adamant about keeping that pup close to her. The fear that maybe they would develop their friendship into something romantic had plagued mine and Jayden's minds after we had left her in her room. She was adamant about keeping him close. What was so special about him that s
Chapter Twenty-One: Coronation Part Four Kiara, at age nine Kiara POV: Auntie Meg had dressed me up in the prettiest red gown I had ever seen. She said that the queen specifically sent the dress for me as a congratulatory gift for my scholarship. The dress was long and reached the floor; it had sparkles everywhere, making me feel like a real-life Cinderella. Auntie Meg had two braids on both sides of my head and pinned them and put small white flowers in them. Rex and JJ were speechless when they saw me; even they admitted I looked like a queen, not a princess. Which was nice, but I liked being a princess; I was too small to be a queen. I reminded myself to thank the queen once the coronation was done. I had always read about coronations in our history books, but being at one was so exciting. Everything was done so pretty in the ballroom. The whole place was decorated with white and ivory flowers, crystal chandeliers and candles. It was fairytale-like as if we were in Disneyland.
