The True Heir

Lila's POV All the elders were led into the Grand Hall. As they entered, they had a perplexed look on their faces as they tried to understand why I, the prisoner, was suddenly in charge.Whispers filled the room almost immediately. I love the look on their faces, the ones who once mocked me, we're now my subject and how to do anything I say. This was the irony of life. I watched their eyes move from me to the lord tomorrow and then to the blood on my body and also the stained knife I had in my hand. The look of confusion, suspicion and shock on their faces brought so much happiness.I walked deeper until I stood at the center of the hall with elders on both sides. I raised my head with so much pride, my back straight and my chin up. This was my moment. This was the time I would prove myself as the true heir. I refused to look weak. One of the elders stepped forward, his brows furrowed deeply. He looked very disturbed like the balance of nature had just been tampered with. “What is

The Weight of the Crown

Lila's POV A week later.“Make sure to get the winery cross checked again. There's no way the hand pressed grape juice is finished. Thats the only thing that keeps me sane here.” I lamented, pacing around my room.“Sorry about that, Mi Lady. We'll hand press fresh grapes for you immediately. Ten minutes. Ten minutes is all it's gonna take…. maximum.” Samie my newest bodyguard assured.I stopped pacing and looked at him.“Ten minutes?” I raised a brow. “Ten minutes sounds like eternity. Listen Sammie. You don't know how these pregnancy cravings work. Once I'm craving something to eat, I have to eat it immediately. It shouldn't be delayed. Now I grave hand pressed grapes and you expect me to wait for ten minutes? I can't. He straightened immediately. “you don't have to worry ma'am. I'll make sure that they are quick about it. I'll makes sure of it. It won't be like last time, I mean it.”I sighed and rubbed my temple. Times had changed and I was the backbone of the pack. The forbearer

A Crown Too Heavy to Bear

Lila's POV “What happened? I remembered talking to you. Why am I here? The bed is so uncomfortable.” I complained, inquiring from Claire.“You fainted ma'am. We were having a conversation when you fainted. I altered Rowan and he called the healer. The healer has something to say.”I shut my eyes, my eyes heavy.“Where's the healer?”“He's making a new concoction for the baby. He'll be here in a few minutes.” Claire replied gently, adjusting the pillow behind my head.I frowned slightly. What was I need in a conclusion for? Last I checked I had taken the herbs Rowan prescribed to me.“A concoction? Is something wrong? What did you say about me? Is something wrong with my health? And the baby I'll be okay? I asked, slowly opening my eyes to look at her.Claire hesitated and I needed to know that something was definitely wrong with her hesitation. Whatever was wrong, I had to hear it. I had to know the way forward if it affected me or the baby or the both of us.“Answer my question, Cla

Between Crown and Child

Lila's POV “My curse!? How worse can it be? I don't understand. What's going on? Is it gonna affect my child?” I asked, my voice rising with panic.The healer raised his hands calmly, knowing exactly how I'd react about this. He flashed a professional smile at me.“My Queen, please… relax. Stress will only make it worse. I know you are worried but prioritize your health first. Don't stress yourself out to much. Everything is gonna be fine.”“Don’t tell me to relax!” I snapped. “Its me you are talking about here. I need to know what's going on.” I looked from the healer to Rowan and Claire and then back to the healer. “Just tell me the truth.”He sighed and stepped closer.“There's nothing more to say other than the curse in your bloodline…. the course was never completely gone. It only went dormant for a while. It didn't vanish completely nor was it subdued. It's active now and poses a threat to your safety and that of your child.”My heart dropped into the darkest and deepest part o

The Curse Must Starve

Lila's POV.“I know why you are here.” The Oracle said, her back at us. “ You came because your curse poses a threat to your life and the life of our future ruler.”I froze for a moment. I have totally forgotten the oracles had the powers to read minds and know exactly what you are thinking without having to ask you. All they had to do was chant a few spells and read your mind. Slowly, the Oracle turned to face us. Rowan and I had embarked on our journey alone because I needed him to mentally support me in case I wanted to do something stupid. I locked my gaze with that of the Oracle. Her eyes were calm. I knew that they held something strange knowing she could see into my problems. “So you already know,” I said, trying to steady my voice. “Then you also know how to stop it. You should know how to propose a solution to my problem. You are the oracle after all.”She tilted her head slightly, her hands hovering over a clay pot in a circle motion. “I can understand your frustration,

The Alphas’ Uninvited Return

Lila's POV Four days I still had it in my mind. The worry. The fear that slowly drained me mentally. I know I wasn't supposed to worry but I was slowly getting depressed, it's slowly worsened as the days went by. “Ma’am I'm sorry for interrupting but I have something very important to say.” Claire's voice sounded from outside the door interrupting me in my train of thoughts.“What is it, Claire?”I inquired as I stopped pacing around and sat by the edge of the bed.“Well….um…how do I say this? The alphas are here to see you. Alpha Marcus and Daniel.”This was a shock to my ear. What were they doing and why were they here? Why decide to show yourself in my pack uninvited and unannounced?“What!!!??”I yelled.“Yes, ma’am,” Claire said quickly as she stepped in. “They have been here for the past 20 minutes and I had initially told them to leave but they insisted on waiting for your return and that's why I'm here telling you right now that they are waiting in the Grand Hall. And from th

We Are Here to Help

Lila's POV The Twin Alphas didn't like my humor of how loudly I laughed. They exchanged looks, clearly uncomfortable with my wild reaction.I noticed it. Of course I did. I had my unwavering gaze fixed on them. Nothing escapes me whenever I did. I observed their body language and immediately realized that they weren't expecting me to react that way.My laughter slowly faded but the smile stayed on my face. I sighed and I leaned back slightly in my chair, crossing my legs like I didn’t care. Of course I didn't. What care about what these monster think about my laughter when they threw me out and turned their eyes on me the period I needed them the most.“Is something wrong? Why are you both staring at me like that?” asked, tilting my head.Marcus folded his arm over his chest and cleared his throat nonchalantly.Why would you think something Is wrong? We should be asking you that, Lila.” he said carefully. “We made a comment and you laughed. Let's just say that I didn’t expect… that

Walls Have Ears, Queen

Lila's POV I rose from my throne, surprise etched on my face.“How did you know about that? Who told you? Have you been spying on me this whole time?”My voice came out sharper than I expected, echoing slightly across the hall. “Calm down, Lila. You don’t have to crash out. I’d willingly assure you that it is not a big deal.” Marcus said softly, lifting his hands a little like he was trying to settle a storm.I turned and looked at Daniel expecting him to be bossy as usual but Daniel just sighed, his arms crossed tightly over his chest, his expression unreadable.I looked away from him mad at myself that I was seeking his validation when I clearly shouldn't be. I didn't sit back on my throne because I couldn't. To know that they had been watching me all this while and never bothered to come to my aid when I needed them the most was surprising.My heart was beating too fast, almost like it would explode the next second.“Don't try to calm me down and tell me that it wasn't a big de

The Plan to Save Lila

Marcus’ POV I knew this was a bad idea. I've always known that she wouldn't let us help her. What a stubborn lady she had become over the span of two months.” I lamented.Lila didn't even give us time to explain ourselves and why we were here to help and all she did was kick us like we weren't men of class.The guards let us outside and the heavy door shut behind us with a loud thud, the sound traveling and echoing in the empty hallway that stretched out before us. For a moment, no one said anything. The guards stood at a distance, watching us like we were criminals, even though we had done nothing wrong. They were probably expecting us to get going without having to stand and loiter in the corners. They exchanged looks between themselves and walked away, disappearing in the corner.I ran my hand through my hair and let out a long breath.“She’s getting worse,” I muttered. “You can see how fragile she looked. She's not getting any better and it's worse because she is pregnant and he

Refusing Their Salvation

Lila's POV “I don't want those men back here again, Rowan. Make sure of that. The guards shouldn't let them in when next they come because I know they will. They are very persistent.”Rowan nodded slowly.“Noted ma'am. I'll put that into action immediately.”I heft a sign and run my fingers through my hair. The doctor had warned that I shouldn't stress myself but here I was being stressed by Marcus and Daniel who decided to pay me a visit unannounced.“If you don't mind me asking, who were these men? Who are they and why are they bothering you?”I hesitated. I didn't want to talk about them because talking about them would make me think more about them and that was a weak point. I wanted to tell Rowan not to worry about it but maybe he should know since he was now a part of my life, and played a big role in the upkeep of the pack.“Those men, they are the father of my child. The man who banished me from their pack after I was wrongly accused of treason and theft.”Rowan’s eyes wide
