Chapter 21PIPERA FEW DAYS LATER…The D-day was finally here and I happened to be more tense than I imagined. Kaela had been training me for this moment and each time our session ended, I felt confident. But right now, as Elara helped me in fixing my leather armour, a sickening feeling settled in my stomach.I wasn’t ready and I realized that pretty late. I wasn’t ready for a lot of things. Facing Sage after that horrible night, living with the shame that I tossed myself at Sage despite his love for Sloane, and seeing Kaius after ignoring him multiple times. I was too ashamed to even look at him, wondering what he now thought of me.A cheap whore of course, desperate to seal her position as Luna.“All done,” Elara said, pulling me out of my thoughts.“Thank you,” I whispered a reply.Elara smiled at me, brushing her hand on my hair which had been tied in a tight bun and gelled to stick to my cap.“You will do just fine.” She reassured me, but I needed more than that. “Thank you,” I

Chapter 22

Chapter 22PIPER I could hear my heart pounding in my ears. “Ready to go down the drain princess.” Sloane's smirk grew into a grin.The horn sounded, and my heart sank.The first round had begun.In a flash, Sloane descended upon me. Her fist came at my face, but I was quick to dodge; my stance was sloppy, and I almost lost balance. She didn't give me time to recollect; her movements were so sharp. Fear consumed me as I realized this was a lot more than I imagined. She struck again, using her leg. She aimed at my chest, but I stumbled backward, avoiding the hit. And to my bad luck, that was just the beginning, her strikes came in quicker, and I blocked, stumbled, dodged, barely, but every form of my defense chipped away at me. And the worst happened, a punch slammed into my ribs, and air whooshed out of me. “Ahh.” I gasped as my knees buckled, the pain shot through my body and I could barely breathe. I could hear the cheers in the crowd, I knew it wasn't for me, but it gave me t

Chapter 23KAIUS As soon as I announced Sloane as the winner, my instincts pulled at me to check on Faye. I approached her, kneeling beside her body, lying on the ground like a log of wood. “Princess Faye,” I whispered, gently tapping her shoulder. Her eyes were closed shut, and it didn't seem like she was ready to make any effort in getting up. “Princess,” I called again, tapping her shoulder. She didn't make a move as twitch. I panicked, my heart sinking to the depth of my stomach. I placed my hand under her nose and felt nothing. A lump formed in my throat instantly,I refused to accept the thought flooding my mind.“Kaela.” I yelled,my composure slipping, “She's not breathing.” Kaela and Faye's handmaid sprinted towards us. Kaela mirrored me, kneeling at Faye's side. She touched her neck, closing her eyes as she tried to feel a beat; her silence pulled at my patience. I glanced around, as murmurs filled the crowd, everyone had stopped to gawk. Gritting my teeth, I scooped

Chapter 24

Chapter 24PIPERThe last person I expected to see after regaining consciousness was Sage. He barely showed any concern, while Sloane was beating me to a pulp, so seeing his figure resting against my window, his back facing me, made me blink twice. His scent filled my nostrils but I still couldn't believe it. Maybe this is a dream, I am still asleep which explains why he's here.However, Kaela walking in made me think twice. “Princess, you are awake.” She announced, her voice holding a tinge of happiness to it. Sage turned, his face as stoic as always,he didn't say anything,just stood and watched like a frozen statue. Kaela settled by my side, helping me sit up, she brought the cup she was holding to my mouth, urging me to drink.Fortunately for me, this concoction wasn't as bitter as the ones she gave me on our first meeting.“How are you feeling?” She asked, brushing her hands through my hair, her fingers,warm and relaxing.“Better than yesterday,” I replied, clearing my throat.

Chapter 25

Chapter 25PIPERToday, I found a reason not to beat the Councilwomen to getting here early. They rose to their feet the moment I walked into the hall. “Welcome Princess Faye.” They said in unison, bowing slightly. I bowed as well, “Thank you Council women, I am sorry for taking too long to get here.” I said as I settled in my assigned seat.“We understand Princess Faye,” Shantel said, offering me a soft smile. “We do apologize for interrupting your recovery. But this was really important, and we needed to discuss it with you as soon as…” She began, going straight to the point as the smile on her face disappeared.“After your loss, we gathered the resigned soldiers to confirm if they had gotten what they wanted and wished to return to service, but they refused, stating you did not win them the victory.” Shantel looked at her colleagues and back at me.“They have made another request, something we are not in agreement with.”“But I said I agreed to it.” Ares chimed in with a creepy

Chapter 26

Chapter 26PIPER“We need to talk.” Sage grabbed my hand and said the moment he stopped before me. “I believe we can discuss this with the council. They are a big part of this meeting, aren't they?” Sage growled, tightening his grip on my arm. I suppressed a wince, glaring hard at him. “Let go of me,” I warned, but he didn't budge.“Let go of me or I will scream.” I gritted out in a deadly whisper, feeling a spark of rage settle in my chest. Sage released his grip and backed up, he smoothed his shirt, his jaw evidently clenching and unclenching. “Alpha Sage…” Shantel began, but Sage raised his hand. “This meeting is adjourned. I wish to speak to the princess alone.” The council women readily got up and if they had been waiting patiently for this moment. They all left, including Sloane, and Sage turned to me. “What are you playing at?” He shot the question straight up.“What I was born to have. Leadership. The only reason I am betrothed to you is because my father isn't here. I w

Chapter 27THREE DAYS LATERPIPER “This is a flying kick, it's mostly used when an opponent shows signs of weakness, fatigue.” Kaela demonstrated, her legs skillfully flying in the air and landing hard on the fighting dummy. It bounced back from the impact before settling. I was impressed with how she pulled off crazy stunts like they were a piece of cake.“Who taught you to fight?” I asked, watching her adjust for another strike. “Kaius?” I took a guess. Kaela smiled, but shook her head, she straightened in her stance and turned to fully face me. “My parents, Lieutenant Geralt and Major Kiara.” Kaela revealed and my mouth formed an ‘O’ shape. “They taught you well, you are really good.” I said, smiling awkwardly. I didn't intend to bring up Kaela's past, knowing the main cause of the tragedy.“They never said those words to me.” Kaela suddenly revealed, crashing on the floor next to the dummy. She dusted her training shorts and let out a sigh.“Maybe they…”“Don't try to defend

Chapter 28

Chapter 28PIPERWith Remi here, I knew things were about to be more difficult than I imagined. While having a training duel with Keala, Kaius showed up. That was the first time I was seeing him since the duel. He was more formal in behavior than I remembered.“I am sorry for interrupting your session Princess Faye, but there's an impromptu meeting you have to attend at the moment. Alpha Sage has asked me to bring you here myself.” “The Princess will be there as soon as she changes into something more suitable.” Kaela chimed in, but I shook my head. “No,” I replied with the craziest thought in mind. “I will go like this.” Kaela looked at me with wide eyes, “Princess, do you think that's…a good idea?”I nodded, anything to spite everyone who would be in that room. I also needed alone time to speak with Kaius, to understand why he had just chosen to act like I didn't exist. Kaius led the way, and I followed. As soon as we connected to the quiet hallway, I grabbed his shirt, stoppin

Chapter 29

Chapter 29PIPER“He agreed to it, just like that,” I said to Keala and Elara, and they were just as surprised as I was.“Did you say anything, other than when you spoke about leaving?” Elara asked with a calculating look.I shook my head, “No. But Uria, Tamara, Baski, and Benedict supported and chose to leave with me.” “Oh.” Kaela and Elara exclaimed at the same time.“What is it?” I asked, my curiosity eating me up. Kaela sighed,” Princess, you literally divided the council. That hasn't happened in the last ten years. Alpha Sage must have gotten scared, that's why he gave in to your request.” Kaela explained. Everything Elara said to me that day came rushing in. I thought she was just saying that to make me feel better, but she was clearly right. Sage cannot stand the council dividing, he's that scared of the war returning. “I didn't realize…”“It's okay Princess.” Elara butt in, “You got what you wanted. So what next?” I managed a smile, “I best prepare for my coronation.” A

Chapter 30

Chapter 30PIPER“T–That’s not true.” “Don't deny it, whoever you are.”Shantel deadpanned.“The Goddess brought me here for a reason. You can go ahead and tell everyone who I truly am; this doesn't change anything.” Shantel stood up, and Ares mirrored her. “I hope you are ready for what you are so eager to dive into.” She said and shifted her gaze to Ares, they both left, leaving me to my thoughts.I stood up, heading back to my room, as I turned towards the stares, a strong grip suddenly pulled me to the side, pushing me into an open door and shutting it immediately. I turned with a racing heart, ready to pounce on whoever had pulled me in here. But my defense slipped, realizing it was Flynn.“What is the meaning of this?” I asked, glaring hard at him.“I am intrigued, Princess Faye. I mean I have always known you to be quiet.” He stepped forward, his fingers rising to touch my face. I swatted his hand away, “Why did you bring me here? Do you know how implicating this can be for
