Olivia’s POV

The Kingdom felt different this morning, I noticed it the moment I opened my eyes.

The atmosphere outside my balcony windows looked brighter than usual, alive in a way that almost irritated me. Music sounded faintly from somewhere outside the palace.

It was most likely coming from the Hall.

The school had decided to make use of the general hall instead of settling for it’s own hall within the school. That’s to tell you how grand this was expected to turn out.

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   48 hours

    159Reuben's POV“Who the heck does she think she is?” I muttered, staring at the unread texts.Three texts.That was how many I had sent since I found out she was returning to the palace, and she had replied to exactly none of them.I set my phone face down on the desk, rolling my eyes at it for a moment like it had personally offended me, then picked it back up and checked the screen again out of habit, already knowing what I would find.Nothing.I put it down again.The first text was simple. ‘I heard you're coming back.’ Just enough to let her know I was expecting her without outrightly saying it. She ignored it.The second one, I had waited about a day or two before sending it, which was already longer than I usually waited for anything. She ignored that one too.The third one I sent yesterday. I hadn't planned to send a third. I had told myself two was already more than I would normally bother with, that if someone didn't respond after two attempts the correct thing to do was

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   158: Wanted

    Nolan's POV I found myself waking my screen right in the middle of work. Not for anything serious, but to check the time and date for the fiftieth time now. I rolled my eyes at my phone when I noticed I was staring again. I picked my pen, looking over some of the documents I had to approve by signing it and adding the royal seal to it. My hands moved freely over the paper as I signed the document, after barely understanding what I had just read. "Your majesty?" Kim called. I had almost forgotten then he was in my office as well. "You've been signing one paper for the past five minutes now." He pointed out the obvious. "I'm sure you've signed it more than three times already..." "Thank you for letting me know." I said sarcastically. He didn't say anything else, just kept on sorting out some files. Tap. My hands instinctively touched my screen again. Okay... What the fuck is wrong with me? Why am I checking the time like the date would change seconds from now? Or maybe the

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   157: Sarah Caleb

    Desmond's POV"Old but not weary." Almond clapped, accompanied by a smile as he approached us.Almond was the commander in charge of training the young Lycans. He was skilled and maybe the perfect man for the job.I had chosen him specially for this because he reminded me so much of myself when I was much younger.I had been a little bored at home and so I decided to come around here to watch the young Lycans train. It had actually become an habit over the years and no one, not even Nolan could deny the passion I had for the young Lycans. That is why he officially asked me to help pick someone I found fit to train them, while I supervised. I didn't hesitate to agree.The young Lycans bowed immediately they saw their commander who had just returned from whatever meeting he had with Nolan. I didn't care much to find out what it was. If it concerned me, he would have requested my presence as well."What do you have to say to Lord Desmond?" Almond said and immediately, all the students we

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   156: I'm not leaving!

    Sarah's POV "I know you!" That word sat with me from the moment he told it to me and even days after, I couldn't stop thinking about it. The way those words made my stomach twist. "Hey mom!" I flinched. I didn't even know why I did, but I only got myself when I turned to see Ronnie. No, I hadn't thought it was someone else, her voice had stuck in my head so much that it was unmistakeable, so why... Why did I flinch at the sound of a voice I had memorised over the past twenty four years. Ronnie just stood back for a moment, eyes going over me for a moment. "Is there a problem mom?" She simply said, leaning on the counter for a bit as she stared harder like she was trying to figure me out. "You look uneasy." I shook my head, the movement a little too fast. "It's nothing." I said, trying to replace the uneasy look on my face to a smile. "I was just lost in thoughts and that's why I..." I couldn't complete the words so I just paused right there. Ronnie nodded like she complet

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   155: Not Possible

    Jessie’s POV"Hmmm..." The sound escaped her lips before any word could even make it out. For a moment, she just sat silent, like she was trying to imagine it. Then suddenly, she shook her head. "That's not possible!" She sounded a little firm about it, like she had already read the King's motive and knew that it had nothing to do with her. Thinking about it for another second, it sounded like something else entirely. Maybe Denial? "I think we should go baby shopping someday before you leave." I said, quickly brushing off the topic cause I could already notice her growing discomfort as the topic continued to drag. "Yes... Of course... We should do that." The relief in her voice spoke louder than anything else. We spent another few hours binge watching videos of friends who got pregnant at the same time and how their babies ended up best friends as well. It was all laughs and fun...Then suddenly, Ronnie stood up and walked to the full length mirror.Her hands rubbed against he

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   154: We're both pregnant!

    Ronnie’s POVOur laugh died off...“It’s been a while since we actually did this...” Jessie said, looking at nothing exactly.My eyes moved from the empty space we were both staring at and back to her.“You know, since you returned, it’s been one thing or the other... It’s either you’re not in the mood cause you had a fight with your mom, or I’m busy with my mom.” Then she paused for a bit.“I honestly missed all of these...” She said, referring to the gossips and laughter we had shared just moments ago.There was a brief moment of silence.I rolled my eyes at her. “Enough with the emotional talk.” I complained, “Look how hot it became in here after you started filling everywhere with your emotions.” My hands tugged at the neck of my shirt and pulled it off as I began to roll it in between us dramatically to generate cool air.Jessie burst into that loud ear bursting laugh of hers.“Gosh Ronnie! When did you become so dramatic?”“When did I become dramatic?” I repeated, pressing a han

    Ronnie's POVImmediately the doors of the room fell open, my chest tightened and my throat instantly went dry.He stepped in graciously, his hands moving across his hair for a bit before his eyes dropped to me.I didn't fail to notice how his eyes went over me from my head, down to my toes. The loo

  • WANTED! KING NOLAN'S OBSESSION.   Chapter 32

    Nolan's POV "Whatever it is?" I whispered softly in her ear as I watched her shiver under my touch. I could read her heart, the sincerity that floated in it, but I doubt she was ready for what I was about to ask. Her throat bobbed then she finally nodded. "Yes..." She tried to sound firm, but sh

    Ronnie’s POV“Two hours?” Jessie blurted out. “What the heck are you supposed to do with two hours? I mean, that’s not even enough time to pack your clothes and handbags.”Jessie kept on ranting. Her tone remained sharp as ever. She even looked more frustrated than I was in this weird-ass situation

    Ronnie's POVI didn’t know how long it would be till I finally collapsed. My breath was stuck.Every part of my body had gone still.My eyes locked with his, one of his hands on my chin and the other on my waist to steady me.“All rise!” He said, finally.Everyone looked up, words falling out from
