KIANNA ArghI'm flummoxed at the sight of deforest running towards me with such cruelty in his eyes.What did I do now?Deforest bangs the door with such ferocity, my heart skipped a bit. Declan immediately opens the door and joins us in the room."You worthless piece of garbage! Who has the audacity to think you can reject me? Me! Your alpha!" Deforest fumes looking close to bursting into flames or something. Honestly, I was a little scared right now. I just wanted to sleep in peace. But no! It seemed everyday like the moon goddess had removed that feat from my life."Wha-at?" I stammer, staring up at deforest in utter confusion. I could see Declan on my periphery shaking his head, but I couldn't concentrate on him right now.I had more important things to worry about, like how to survive this forceful conversation with deforest, if I could even call it that."Don't speak! I'm your alpha and I have every right to reject your worthless ass, if I please " deforest barked at me. At

DECLAN Knocking on kianna's door and getting no response. I enter the room only to see Kianna as she stretches out. It seems the princess has been sleeping. I smirk at that.The smirk on my face turns to a morbid frown as I take in the blisters on kianna's body. I could see that some were getting faint . Probably because of the yellow, healing salve on them. She realizes it's me and stands up while offering me a faint smile. I see her wince at that small movement. I smile tentatively back at her. A wave of anger at my brother and I overwhelms me. My brother beat her so badly she can't even smile without wincing in pain while I couldn't even stand up to my devil of a brother. I call him devil because anyone capable of putting a woman to talk more of his mate in this condition had to be a devil.And, Kianna grimaced as she sat back down on the bed. I move to help her but she waves me away.Extreme shame washes over me followed by anger at myself for not doing more to stop this. I ha

KIANNA The air is filled with depression as the healers skitter from one end of the room to another end. They trooped into my room one after the other and are now up to ten in the room plus mama Mali.The way they are walking about makes me so nervous, I feel antsy and the rowdiness of the room is not helping matters.Mama Mali calls one of the elderly healers. She asks her a question and at the healer's reply.They whisper furiously for a while before mama Mali gets pissed and leaves the room. She returns after some minutes with a small container. I couldn't see what it contained though and I quit trying because of the pain I feel when I move.The other healers in the room keep shaking their heads while whispering amongst themselves in clusters. Someone needs to teach these healers about professional ethics because the way they are shaking their heads and heaving negative sighs is enough to sky rocket my blood pressure. One of the healers glanced at me before immediately looking

DECLAN "Arghh!!!!!!!!!"I groaned painfully, my growls shaking the feet of the tent that it almost went flying out. I felt a part of my heart wrinkling in pain only then did I put her back to bed.Deforest!! Nothing will stop me from killing you. I will make your death slow and painful until you beg for mercy that I will eventually kill you. I realized myself and wiped my tears moving away from the bed. I was mourning but I had to do it so quietly so the others wouldn't notice, though my face held no color so it wouldn't be hard to detect how much of an angry man I was. My face fell when I took one final glance at her. I wiped her tears and arranged her hair before pulling a cloth to cover her up. With heavy steps I dragged myself out of the room and as expected the healers were standing around."My lord," Mama Mali called and I raised my eyes to look at her. "How's the girl?""She passed, she couldn't endure the pain." I said slowly, a glint of pain running past my eyes. "May her

DECLANMy hands pulled the door open and slowly I stepped into the room. I secretly crept into Dwayne's room whilst he was away, enjoying his time with the dignitaries. My hand grazed the book on his study and I sat down to read the contents. I was curious to know something but that I wasn't sure of.I just felt this need to know about his secrets without having an idea where that thought comes from. Dwayne can be many things, cruel, cold-hearted and worse all evil. Although I succeeded in winning his heart, somehow Deforest has the upper hand over everything, not that he was the eldest, it's something beyond my knowledge. The title of the book was "Journey of lord's" ; it was boldly inscripted on the front cover. It drew my attention more into it and I wanted nothing more than to read this book my father left open on his study desk.As I flipped the pages open a rare memory flashed past my eyes. It came like collections and efforts to merge them together were fruitless. I managed to
