Right Thinking
I woke up to the sun streaming through the windows, the curtains were open which caused the whole room to be bright. I glance down to see Gray still asleep on my chest, well that's a first he's normally awake before me. This gave me the opportunity to think about what he told me last night, I knew from the stories I heard before that his father was a horrible individual. But I would have never thought he would take his own daughters life, just because she was going to be next in line for the throne. I can't even imagine what was going through that little girls head, the man that's supposed to protect you from all the "monsters" is the one that actually hurt you. As I told Gray, she's in a better place now with her mother away from from that monster. It must have been so hard for Gray, losing both his sister and his mother in ten years at such a young age, it just shows what a strong person he is.  It just angers me

Make It Up To You
A few more hours have passed since mine and Erik's first meeting, I did have a long list of things I've wanted to get done but as he wasn't here, I had no idea how to get around it myself. First off, I needed him to start the list of new officials to replace the current officials, since the meeting I was in, it was clear those men were not up to the standard. Erik was able to suggest a few names off the top of his head but told me he'd look more into that, I know the officials will be so annoyed but I really couldn't care less.  Now secondly, I did some digging of my own and found the original photo of Gray's family, the one with Matilda in. I had Erik replace the current one in the hall and put the one with his sister up. I'll show that to Gray later, I hope he likes it. The last thing I wanted Erik to do was track down my first advisor Masons wife, when she ran passed the guards a few weeks after I got here that

Justice
After a long chat with my dad I was being led out the prison, I told him what the next steps were and he said he was more than happy to help. As I'm walking out the prison he's being taken to where mum is, they haven't saw each other in a long time so I know how happy that will make her. As soon as I walk out the door to the dungeon where the basement is, Gray was running down the stairs his face holding relief when he saw me. Erik says he'll see me tomorrow before walking upstairs, Gray wastes no time wrapping me in a tight hug holding me there but freezes.  "You have a scent of another man on you" he kind of growls out, his arms still wrapped around me.  "Don't worry that's my dad" I smile with a roll if the eyes, he pulls away seeming to calm down a little.  "I do want to chan

A Mini Holiday
It's been almost a week since I met with my dad and a lot has changed, firstly I got my cast off my arm which was incredible! It felt weird for the first few days but now it feels like it's almost back to normal. It served as a constant reminder of Rupert and the attack but now it's gone, I feel like I can move passed it and get on with the more important things in my life. Erik and I have been working hard on the case against Gray's father, we just need to find more witnesses that will testify against him when it goes to trial, we have my dad but Erik told me we'd need a few more to really make people see what horrible man Preston was and mostly likely still is.  Gray and I have hardly seen each other this past week as we've both been way to busy, he's wrapped up with building the case on Daisy and finding Rupert. Either I'm with Erik working into the night or he's with Josh doing the same, I knew I'd be busy when

Final Bombshell
It's the morning after all that chaos, we managed to arrive in the safe house just before nightfall. They first wanted us to drive in a car up there but, as they were doing the routine check of the vehicle before we went anywhere near it, they found an explosive. Gray didn't want to take any chances so we went in wolf form, it was great! It's the first time since becoming Queen I've been able to shift.  "I felt like a free wolf!" My wolf cheers in my head causes me to laugh a little.  The safe house is actually bigger than I first thought it would be, when you picture a safe house you imagine a tiny house in the middle of a wood right? This is entirely different, it's a huge mansion right in the heart of a huge town, once again I never imagined it to be like this. Gray explained this is the safest safe house around, Rupert's gonna find out we're i

The Evil Woman
I spent a few more hours in the meeting room alone, I kept going over the information Erik found on Gray's mum over and over again. Each time I read it I would become more convinced she was still alive, I just hope Gray takes all the information well too. I won't tell him until Erik is hundred percent sure the person he's visiting is Gray's mother, part of me hopes it is but another part doesn't. Gray will feel so betrayed if he discovers his mother has been alive this whole time and she never came home, at least with my parents I knew they didn't want to look after me and Kyle anymore, it gave me room to accept it. But Gray has had to try and accept the death of his mother, only to find out she could potentially still be out there.  I stare at the photo of the destroyed house in front of me, it was so similar to how Rupert's turned out. Maybe that's where Preston got the idea to burn Rupert's from. I still haven't

Witnesses
After dinner we were just sat in the bedroom in silence, there's not much you can do in when it's light while here. It's too dangerous to go outside in the day in case we're recognised, which means we're stuck in this house all day. I sat on the bed while Gray took off the "normal clothes". At dinner we have a rule that we don't mind-link anyone and phones are off, that way we have each other's undivided attention. I assumed he would be quiet and not want to talk due to his mother, he was actually the opposite and was so talkative and happy which was shocking, but it did make me happy to see him happy after the last few days.  "I can guess that your dinner is over as I'm not being blocked out, sorry I had to drop the bombshell to the King over the phone but mind-link wouldn't work out there, I've just left but she's joining me and wouldn't take no for an answer" Erik voice says through mind-link, I take a look at G

Connected
"Rupert?" Gray asks dumbfounded staring at his photo, I just nod my head placing the photo on the desk.  "We had the same reaction to the news, we've found out that Rupert was also one of your fathers men that helped him commit such heinous crimes" I start to explain while Erik begins to pull more papers out, we fell down a rabbit hole investigating this "now all this linked together and I mean it all, Matilda's death, your mother as we now know, faking her death and Rupert's house burning down, they're all connected" I say laying the photos on the table, honestly it was a lot, we must have used about a tree and a half making all these up.  "But you say there was a witness there, if Rupert was working with his dad he wouldn't spill his guts to officials, after his dad killed Rupert's mate he didn't have anything to do with Grayson's family at all"

Mother
Guards immediately start to file into the office blocking any doors and windows, Gray's arms lock around me as the room instantly becomes packed as the shouting continues. I look back at Gray very worried who places a kiss on my shoulder, I think this was him telling me I was going to be okay.  "That is absolutely correct my love, no harm is going to come to you, I promise" he mind-links hearing my thoughts, I take hold of one of his arms that were still tightly wrapped around me.  A few silent minutes in the room pass, the shouting got louder for a second but than stopped abruptly. But the thing that stood out to me was it didn't sound like a man, to me it sounded like a woman. In my mind I was trying to match the voice to someone I knew, but I couldn't place the voice with anyone. This would mean either Rupert has a very girly voice or, it's not

Horrendous
It was silent for what left like an eternity, Gray and I stood outside the door just staring at the women inside the door, who was also just looking back at us. No one dared to make the first move, I run my thumb over Gray's knuckles to show him I'm here but also in hopes to snap him out of it. It works and he begins to lead me into the room, the guard bows their head at us before leaving the room closing the door behind them. The stand off only continued, no one dared to move or even talk for a few seconds. Thankfully, Gray's mum spoke up.  "My baby look at you, you won't believe how much I've missed you" she says tears welling up in her eyes as she spoke, she then turns her attention to me stood beside Gray "you must be his mate, oh my you're so beautiful" she smiles at me, I send her a smile back at her kindness.  "Thank you, I'm Clara" I smile
