AxelThree weeks. It's been three weeks since I lost Aaron. I knew that he could take care of himself, but I'm his best friend. We promised to always protect each other. Besides, the people we came down here trailing were dangerous people. The bunch of rogues who had been lurking around in the kingdom spreading terror in the name of the royal family. Even though I knew that a dozen of them were no match for Aaron, I couldn't help but worry, as I knew very well how sleeky those rogues could be, my father was killed in the war with the rogue king many years ago, leaving the Pack vulnerable. But thanks to the King, we were given adequate protection as he brought the Clayville pack under his rule, thus making our pack a part of the great Mallory Kingdom. I went to school in the Palace and there I met my backbone, the Princes. Aaron and Giovanni have become my pillars of support since the passing of my father and I couldn't have asked for more. We grew up together and have been best f

Aaron"Welcome, Prince Aaron," the man I'd been trailing suddenly stopped and let out a loud chuckle, informing me that he was aware of my presence. I thought I was discreet enough. I was just a few steps away from meeting the rogue leader, the man who took the rogue king's place. How did he know that I was behind him? I had to mask my scent with skunk dung to keep them from finding me out, but still he had me figured out. "You smell like royalty, even the horrible smell of skunk couldn't hide that," he muttered in response to my thoughts. I knew it wouldn't be easy to get out now that I'd been discovered. Especially since I was in their territory. Although I had come to the East Blue with my brother and Axel, my best friend, to trail the rogues who had been hurting and stealing from the people in the name of the royal family. However, I was close to finding their camp and couldn't risk them finding us, so I asked that I go alone. Though, I now know their camp and also got to se

Aaron"We'll come back," I vowed as we were about to set sail for Mallory. I will come back and when I do, I will make sure to get those sneaky rogues and their leader. "We sure will," Axel affirmed in a tone that was laced with bitterness and a high amount of determination. I can imagine how he must feel to know that the same people who were responsible for the death of his parents and the damnation of his pack still roams free and even dares to scheme. Their effrontery was alarming. They had so much guts stuck in them that they walked into our kingdom and attacked the citizens. They spread so much terror among the people that their trust in the royal family was starting to break.I will never forgive them for that. After the great war between the rogues and the Mallory Kingdom, my mother put in so much effort to rid us of the monster that called himself the rogue king, thus winning her position in the Mallory court as the lady Chamberlain. The first ever. Even though her posit

Zoraya"We're home."I watched his lips move as he said the words. As cool as those words sounded, it did nothing but bring pain to my heart as I wished that I had a place to call home too. I wish Zara was alive. Beside her was the only home I knew. Life without Zara has been nothing but painful.I thought that Jayden's place would become my new home, but it turned out to be the opposite. He even denied knowing me, which hurts more than any pain I've ever felt. I don't know why I still feel something shattering in my chest every time I think about Jayden. He was the first human to extend a helping hand to me, but it ended in tears. Even though the man before seemed nice, I couldn't bring myself to trust him. Especially after what he did to Ronnie. "Come."His voice called me out of my thoughts. He put forth his hand for me to hold. I stared at his hand and was immediately reminded of Jayden. He had extended his hand to me similarly, yet it turned out to be lies.Evading his hand,
