I was so upset. If it was the same poison, it was definitely Antonella's handiwork. I was broken for a second time. Maybe I was right after all. Maybe people could not be trusted. There was possibly no other way the poison could have found its way into our pack. It was what she had planned. I was disappointed as I was beginning to trust her again and now, she had let it all down.“Trust? I believe you know what kind of person she is now” I informed my wolf. It was saddening and hard to believe but the truth was glaring. I nodded as I watched the royal physician walk away. I felt so bad and wished there was something I could do but alas, there was not. I was heartbroken.“I will protect you at all cost. I will make sure nothing happens to you”No, I was not just saying it. I was really going to do as I said. My won’t was quiet. Perhaps, it had no idea of what to say anymore after realizing the woman he wanted me to trust and give a second chance was nothing but a murderer.She had trie

A wry smile formed on my face as I watched her look worried. Even though her words sounded so true, I did not want to believe her. The last thing I wanted to hear was what she had said. Claiming her innocence.I was taken aback when she claimed to love me. I mean the younger me. I was relieved when she said as a brother not until she claimed she also loved me as a lover. We were children at that time. Why would she think of such at that tender age? I wanted to smile but then, I remembered why I was there. I remembered why I had come to see her.“Leave my Father out of this” She answered, her brows furrowed. I felt my inside burn. She was defending her Father? A murderer? After trying to wipe off a whole generation who had done nothing to him? I was disappointed. If I had indeed died, was that all she was going to say?True. She was the only friend that I had at that time and I was quite glad with the fact that she knew it was not right to keep talking about me but I really wanted to k

He turned back to look at me. Although I was not sure he would listen to me, I knew I had to give it a try. I was glad when he suddenly halted. Maybe I was finally going to be free. “An important message for me? What could it be?” He questioned but I was quiet as I started at him. I could tell he was impatient to hear what I had to say. I wanted to make him anticipate the news and I was glad he was. I smiled widely as I knew I finally had the opportunity to do what I wanted. It was my turn to make him do my wishes. “Nothing comes free, you know? You have to promise to give me what I want in return for the message” I answered. “If you try to play games with me, then I would behead you and have your head sent to your Father while the vultures feast on the remaining parts of your body” I threatened. I did not want to be played. “I kid you not. You would be very glad to know this piece of information I have for you” She smiled. “Then spill”. I ordered. No. Even though I was not sur

Although I tried to return, it was too late as he had seen me. My heart raced and my whole body trembled in fear.“Why are you here? Tell me, what do you intend to do here? Are you trying to steal valuable information or perhaps, trying to escape?” I shook my head almost immediately. How could he think of that? There was possibly no way I was going to do that. Although I was not too glad with my presence there, the last thing I would definitely do was try to steal valuable information from him.“Do not make me lose my temper. Tell me right now. Why are you here?” He yelled at me. I took a deep breath as I decided to say the truth. I had no intentions to do evil though.“I was just out for a stroll and nothing else” I answered, trying to sound so confident and pretending to not be intimidated although I was. I had expected him to let me go but instead, he smirked and shook his head.“What do you think? Who do you think I am? A fool? One you can deceive?” He questioned and I shook my he

The morning sun beam peeked through the clouds and penetrated the thin curtain with which my windows had been covered, it’s golden light shining directly on my face. I groaned as I turned lazily to the other side of the bed but the morning birds were not left out as well as they carried on with their early morning ritual of chirping. Muttering some inaudible words, I stood up lazily but I was greeted by the pain from my wrist. I winced in pain as I looked at the wrist again. I had totally forgotten about it.I let out a sigh as I sat up slowly and stretched before rolling my eyes to the left and to the right again as an exercise for my eyes. I stood up immediately and proceeded to the window, opening it wide to embrace a new breath of air.Somehow, I was glad and I knew today was indeed going to be a very beautiful day. I looked at my wrist again as I wondered why it had not healed completely. Of course, it was supposed to!I let out a sigh as I headed to the bathroom and a couple of
