AelfredMy team was far more robust than Stormee's. She was sure that the help my leaders would need was far more than what the female team would need. The male team was responsible for heavy lifting, and hands were often required. She was right.I held a meeting with Vamir, Myriad, and Blass. We agreed on how we would handle everything from now on. We discussed each area's responsibilities, how we would respond to crises, and the communication channels that would work smoothly. Then, we brought in Kel, Waston, Lorn, and Ellios.We agreed to report back in a week once a thorough assessment of the realm was done, and once we saw the details, we could form a plan of action. When they left, I felt a sense of easiness, one I haven't had ever since I took the crown and leadership of the realm. I must confess that being overwhelmed was a regular thing for me. I tried to cope and do everything in my power to fix things around me, but being unable to do so simultaneousl

AelfredStorm and Sary went to visit the pharmaceutical company. Something deep within me told me that trouble was on the horizon, perhaps because yesterday, Elder Audon visited us on a furtive visit that only left me weary of what was to come.I have learned that this particular being has a nasty nature. The more I dig into my memories from when I was a child and forced to rule, the more I realize that he instructed me in specific ways of doing things, only to take advantage of the circumstances. Stormee has come and opened my eyes and has broadened the way I must rule, and with that, by reclaiming the power I never thought I had, she is stepping on the elder's toes, making him dangerous."You are quiet." Vamir pointed out, and I nodded,"I don't know... I have a feeling," I sighed, and he squinted his eyebrows."Do you think they are in danger?" he asked hesitantly. "As in someone trying to harm them?" his voice alarmed,"No, I don't think

Stormee AdalwulfI couldn't believe how Aelfred reacted when he first saw me. At first, I thought he was upset or angry with me, but when he explained, I understood that he wanted to gather fresh evidence to protect me and Sary.I was concerned, and when Eiry and Petra walked into the office, I broke down with them. They are my team; they are part of what we are trying to do, and they felt the attack as if it was being bestowed upon them."So, do we know who the woman is?" I asked after several minutes.Al shook his head. "Myriad and Blass should be here shortly," he sighed, rubbing small circles on the back of my palm. I could feel his need to be engaged in something else to keep him from going crazy."We are going to be fine..." I sighed, trying to reassure him and me."Audon, I am sure it was him... bu

VamirI stood up slowly and followed the doctor. "She is weak, and you will only have a few minutes," he said, and I nodded.The doctor opened a curtain, and under a flimsy hospital gown and a white sheet was lying a pale Sarula. At the sound of the curtain, she opened her beautiful eyes, and the tip of her ears blushed. I adore seeing that hue in her.I slowly walked to the edge of her bed, "Hey... you scared me." I sighed, and she bit her lower lip."Thanks for not letting me die." She softly said, and I nodded."I would never..." I sighed, and she nodded."Do you know what happened?" She asked,"The refreshments were poisoned. I don't believe the final target was you and Axelled, but the queen." I sighed and rolled out a little chair to the edge of her bed."What kind of poison?"

SarulaVamir was my mate, and I should have been elated because, aside from being a very handsome elven man, he is a great guy... but... as usual, the big if and of my father trying to use my feelings and his to his advantage was a looming dark cloud over me.After talking with Stormee about intimate things, she and the king left the hospital, leaving me with Vamir again."You don't seem happy," Vamir said, and I shook my head,"I am just tired..." I said, and he nodded. I could tell he partially believed my words because they were partial truth."Then, have some rest. I will be right here..." He said in a tender voice, and I slowly nodded. I closed my eyes but was unable to fall asleep. My mind kept reeling, wishing I was braver like Petra, stronger like Stormee, or gorgeous like Eirula... but I was none of that. I
