All Chapters of She Was The Queen: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Everything irritated me. I could feel particles in the air brushing past every inch of me as I went downstairs like soft paper cuts on my skin. The air was not clean, I could see dust wafting in the air and resting on the brim of vases, must on the windows. The world around me exploded into intricate disgusting detail. I could hear everything, everyone's thoughts and voices like a cacophony in my brain. Sounds of subtle movements, shifting, shuffling, coughs and saliva. Louder and louder by the second.Why was this happening now? Why couldn't I just have a simple conversation with her? Have long moments of tranquility. I wanted to go back to her but I knew I'd be annoyed with her. Everything in existence irritated me. I'd be so insufferable she'd hate me more than she already did.Since she arrived, I've been experiencing lighter swings but I could feel this one was going to be heavy if I couldn't help it.I rushed down the stairs and clapped off the dust under my hands from the rails

Sweat beaded my chest. Air slipped between my lips as it was too fast for me to catch it. The room was humid and I kicked off the blanket as it was burning my covered feet. I covered my face with my hands to feel if I was real. If I was really here in the Traga house. It was just a dream. Just a very vivid dream.This time I was trapped in a cage of trees, formed close to each other like clasped fingers - refusing me any pathway. A bloodthirsty growl came from a dark forest. I was in my wolf form, injured and scared. A black wolf appeared in the distance. It was him, the bloody Azrael alpha, Intiyago. My hands trembled at the thought of him. The whole dream made him a deadly demon, it made him larger than reality, someone who could shift in and out of my head at will.Although I was wide awake the terror still thummed in me like a pulse. My eyes scanned the room, maybe he was behind the bookshelf or the ominous bathroom door.It wasn't the first time I dreamt of him though, even befor

I burned like a star. Endless upon endless combustions of passion fuelled by the bottomless well of my desire. I had only gazed down that well before, I didn't know my waters ran that deep. I was in a frenzy. Conscious yet not willing to reign myself back out of it. I pulled him closer to me. I could tell he was in full control, he, himself wanted this. I traced my hands all over his defined upper body, feeling down to the shapes of his abdominal muscles. So well-made he was.His hands went under my shirt and he gripped my breast under the cage they called a brassiere. The sensation my body gave out whenever he touched me, was enhanced when he touched me there.I kissed his collarbone, making him moan, finding this as his primary soft spot. I'd never done this before but my body knew where to kiss, where to touch as if it had been written into the fibres of my being. We were in indulgence.His breaths tickled my neck and chest as he pulled my shirt off, leaving me in the colourful bra

Grace never left her room. She just stopped going out. I bet the stench was putrid.Mom always left food for her at the door and she would open only for that. The same person who allowed her to stay didn't even talk to her. I only saw Grace if I woke up early enough to find her heading to the shower. Very early."So Grace stays?" an elder asked.We sat in a meeting, me and of all elders of the pack were in the living room. It had been two weeks since the treaty was broken. Schedules clashed and there never came a time for everyone to come together until then. Things were always slow here."Yes," I sighed heavily.I stood in the middle and they all sat on the couches."No punishment?" another asked."The Luna prescribes we don't.""So you let your Luna control you?" An old friend of my father asked from the corner.I growled under my breath and sneered at him. I knew they would see it that way."She doesn't control

Khai was glorious. He glowed like a black moon but one that emitted its own light. He was larger than he was before and his eyes were now green. I thought it would wear off after he turned back but he remained like that. The power overwhelmed his body and when it wore out he collapsed. Hopefully, when he wakes up he will be himself again.“Roman,” Jacob called.I was in Walter’s room where Khai lay unconscious on the bed. The harsh light spotlighted his handsome face. Walter was also the only one I felt comfortable confiding in. I liked spending time with Yolanda but I had learned quickly that she couldn't be trusted with much.Jacob knocked on the door.“Our grandfather wants to see you.”I followed Jacob to the living room where the elders had gathered once more. They told him to leave.“Take a seat, Roman,” Khai’s grandfather said.His name was Emiliano and his skin was like old saddle brown leather. I thought he looked handsome for his age. I could see where Khai got it from.I to
