Chapter: Hundred And Twenty SixSeleneI couldn't just get what was going on. It's been several months since I set my eyes on Everest and now that she had returned, she was acting strange all of a sudden. I could say that I was completely in a confused state. As a matter of fact, It was so terrifying to behold. I just couldn't explain what it was all about. I stood still watching all Everest did and could say nothing. I watched her being taken away. Afterall, I didn't give a fuck.Miss Phoebe folded her arms as she stared at me. "Are you just going to stand there?" I sighed. "Of course I am. What on Earth do you want me to do? Do you expect me to run along?"Miss Phoebe chuckled. "You're unbelievable! Don't you know what she's going through?""As if I cared."She glared at me. "Just so you know, Everest is suffering from an illness, a severe one. She has schizophrenia!" She announced.Her response turned out to be a shock to me. I widened my mouth in surprise as I exhaled. "Schizophrenia?"She shook her head."Yes

Chapter: Hundred And Twenty FiveFinn “I…am…Emily!" Caleb also burst into laughter."So you were the one who had taken Everest out of the academy huh?" She shook her head. "Apparently. Well, the academy was so boring to stay in and so I was in need of something to keep me busy or better still give me fun. And you know how that can be. I can't imagine that brother could be so blind, he was blind that he had suspended the innocent girl without making proper investigations. And if only he did a proper investigation, he would have known that it was Alice behind the whole thing. Caleb furrowed his brows in surprise."Alice behind the whole thing?" "Yes. And not only that, she had also tried to kill Everest but ended up killing one of the contestants." Having heard her response, I was shocked. I was amazed she knew all of this all along. And heard I was still investigating and was unable to trace Alice. What then, have I been doing? I wondered in guilt. Caleb folded his arms as he stumped his feet."I said it! I kn

Chapter: Hundred And Twenty FourFinn Seeing Everest go through such pain made me feel a huge sympathy for her. I felt hurt to see her behave in such a manner. She was completely innocent after all. And once again she had to go through such trauma. It's so sad that I couldn't do anything. And even if I were to do something it won't change anything. As she had stood before me with a smile, I was helpless and totally devastated. The only way we could calm her down was only when she black out. I can imagine the pain she was going through. I clenched my fist in anger having recalled the response which my parents had made concerning her, and to top it all, right before my presence. After she was knocked out, she was taken into a private room so she could take some rest. But then, I spent some time with her before I decided to return to the palace. Having seen her in such a condition I got really pissed. It was all absurd. It turns out that she wasn't lucky after all. Caleb and I returned to the palac

Chapter: Hundred And Twenty ThreeEverestOf course I know! And so also you are my only friend." "You actually came at the right time. I know you would never lie to me but rather tell me the truth. Everyone here seemed to say things which I don't understand. Tell me what they had done to Elena. I want to know where Elena is at the moment. Is that why she's in hiding, what did they do to her?" Adrienne smiled gracefully."Everest, you don't have to worry. They did nothing to Elena. Absolutely nothing! Oh goodness! Is that why you're panicking? Come on! Cheer up now, Elena had stepped out. She went on an errand. As a matter of fact, she went to get you a surprise gift. Besides, I'm not supposed to tell you because it was meant to be a surprise."I heaved a sigh of relief and burst into laughter as I let out a perfect smile, facing the others. "You see, I knew it! After All, I knew I wasn't insane nor was there anything wrong with me in the first place. So why would you all say that I'm mad, that I had lost my sanity? E

Chapter: Hundred And Twenty TwoEverestAfter a series of pains and tears I let out, I couldn't keep up any longer. I was as weak as a cat. While in search of Elena, I shouted and shouted but there wasn't a response. She didn't turn up anymore. I was confused and devastated. Totally exhausted!In my current condition, it isn't advisable as a pregnant woman to move about in such stress and tension. It could equally affect my unborn child in any way. There was no way I could stay back any longer. And having recalled all that happened, my heart hurts.I moved towards Miss Phoebe. She stood still as she watched me search for Elena. On second thought, Elena must have returned home. I concluded. All that had mattered to me was to find her as soon as possible.And from the look of things the perfect the place to find her would be at home since she was nowhere to be seen around the arena. I would use the opportunity to confirm things for myself.I stared at Miss Phoebe with a sad face as I reached out to her. "Miss Phoe

Chapter: Hundred And Twenty OneEverest I staggered backwards in shock as my heart raced heavily. I widened my eyes in shock, it seemed my senses were failing me. What was all this? No! No! This can't be happening!! My heart beat changed completely, the fast rhythm felt like it was going to pop out of my chest. Paraventure If I was told such a thing would happen on such a special day. A day which I hope I would never forget as a result of the excitement I felt, I would never have believed. Who would have thought it could happen? There I was overwhelmed with Joy not knowing that my past would come hunting for me in the future. I must say that indeed, everything had worked out according to how Alice had planned. She let out a sinister smile as she displayed it. The more the audience spoke harsh words, pointing a finger at me, the more excited she was. So this was her plan all along? The moment she stated she had something to say to the audience, my heart skipped though I had no idea what she was gonna say. Deep

Chapter: Epilogue DrakeThree years later.I stood at the grave, my hands clutching the flowers I had brought. My kids stood beside me, their eyes fixed on the stone before them. I took a deep breath, clearing my throat. “Owen looks exactly like you,” I said, my voice quivering. “I know you're not here, but occasionally I believe you are.” I paused, my eyes hard as I looked at my kids. “He's as strong as you are. He's selfless, just like you. You would have loved him.” The words hung in the air, heavy with emotion.“Sometimes it's difficult to believe that you're not here with us, that I won't ever hear your voice again or feel your touch. Sometimes I think it's all a nightmare, that I'll wake up and everything will be like it was before. But I never do. The truth is, life without you is hard. I find it hard to trust anyone, to open up to anyone. “My kids ran off, giggling as they chased each other through the grass. I got up to follow them, making sure they didn't go too far.

Chapter: Getting BetterZeldaNine Months Later.I looked in the mirror, my eyes drawn to the slight bulge in my belly. I placed my hand on my stomach, feeling the life within. It was a strange sensation, one that filled me with both joy and fear. I was growing, my body changing, my life changing. But I was still me, still whole. And that was all that mattered to me. I traced my fingers over my cheeks, feeling the slight swelling of my nose. Drake said I looked beautiful, but I couldn't see it. All I saw was a monster. But he loved me anyway.He still wasn't happy that I was keeping the pregnancy, but I knew in my heart that this was the right decision. I wanted to have this child, to give Drake the heir he deserved. He might not have needed it, but the pack did. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for the challenge ahead. I could do this. I could be strong for both myself and my child. I placed my hand on my stomach again, feeling the flutter of new life within. And I smiled.The door to my room burst o

Chapter: Some SpaceZeldaI couldn't tell how long I'd been unconscious, but when I opened my eyes, my head was pounding. I struggled to sit up, but someone helped me, supporting my weight. I looked up, and my heart sank. It was Drake. His expression was unreadable, and I was unable to remember the last time he had smiled. “Where's my family?” I asked, my voice breaking. I was afraid of the answer. “The doctor had asked that we give you some space,” he said. I nodded, my mind racing. He was staring at me with a strange look in his eyes, and I knew something was wrong. “What is it?” I asked, my heart in my throat. “Nothing,” he said, his voice monotone. I knew he was lying. We'd known each other for too long. He knew I could see right through him. I waited, the silence weighing on me like a heavy blanket. “Just tell me,” I said, my voice shaking. He let out a long sigh. “You're pregnant,” he said, his voice low and serious. My jaw dropped, and I looked down at my stomach. “I thought about what the

Chapter: Be StrongZeldaI heard footsteps approaching, and my heart leapt into my throat. A guard appeared, a limp body slung over his shoulder. He dropped the body on the floor, and I held my breath, dreading what I would see. The guard stood back, his face pale. “He's dead,” he said, his voice flat. I forced myself to take a step forward, my knees shaking. I knelt beside the body, my hands trembling as I reached out to touch it. I pulled back the blood-stained cloak, revealing the face of Jake.“Jake, the Fierce,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “Don't do this. You can't leave like this.” I reached out to touch his cold cheek, my hands shaking. I looked down at him, my heartbreaking as I took in his broken body. “Please… please don't go.” I cradled his body in my arms, my tears falling like rain.My mother rushed to my side, her arms wrapping around me. “Shh, my dear. Be strong,” she murmured. Drake stood in front of me, his eyes hard and unyielding. His arms were crossed behind his back, hi

Chapter: Burn HerZeldaI felt Jake's hand slip from my grasp, and I heard a sickening thud as he hit the rocks below. I wanted to believe he was still alive, but I knew it was a futile hope. I sank to my knees, my eyes fixated on the jagged cliff that loomed before me. “Jake! Jake! Jake!” I heard Drake’s voice as he called out, but the only response was the echo of his own voice. Desperately, Drake yelled again, his voice hoarse and cracking. But there was no reply, only a heavy silence. I turned to Drake, his expression unreadable. “Let's go,” he said quietly, his voice heavy with grief. “No!” I cried, shaking my head. “We have to find him! We have to save him!” I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I couldn't accept that he was gone. Drake took my face in his hands, his eyes filled with sadness. “He's dead, Zelda,” he said softly, his voice cracking. “I'm so sorry.” I shook my head, refusing to accept that Jake was gone, and then I freed myself from hi

But I could feel myself slipping, and I knew I couldn't hold on much longer. My eyes darted to the ground below, my heart racing as I thought of the fate that awaited me if I fell. I heard the guards. Drake and Jake were shouting, but I was unable to make out what they were saying. I closed my eyes, my mind spinning as I tried to find a way out of this.I howled in desperation, the sound tearing from my throat. “Zelda!” I heard Drake call, his voice echoing through the cavernous space. I opened my eyes, straining to see him through the darkness. He was standing on the edge of the cliff, his arms outstretched toward me. But it was no use. I was too far away, the space between us was too great. “I can't reach you, Drake,” I cried, my voice cracking. He took a step closer, his eyes pleading. “Just try, Zelda,” he said, his voice shaking.I strugg

Chapter: Epilogue MelodySeveral months went by and it was the twins' birthday. They were turning eight. Derek wanted to throw them a royal party since it was their first birthday in Mallory. He wanted to introduce them to the people as the crown Prince. Dorian and I arrived two months earlier for the preparations. The kids would often spend some time with us in Dark Flame Pack before returning to Mallory.This time we decided to stay with them till their birthday is due, and the date is two days away. Everyone was happy to be a part of the kids' big day.I wasn't of much help as I sat on a throne-like chair. I watched everyone prepare for the D-day. "Are you okay?" Dorian asked for the hundredth time that day. He's been asking the same question with a five-minute interval since the break of dawn. He placed his hand on my big belly and made an invisible circle as he spoke. "I'm fine," I replied with a smile."Are you sure?" He looked into my eyes for any sign of discomfort. "I'm fine, Dorian," I s

Chapter: Finale Melody"Aren't you so beautiful?" I was sitting in front of the mirror in my special chamber in the palace. I checked myself out and couldn't help but admire the reflection before me. The chamber was allocated to me by Derek for days when I chose to visit the pups in the Palace. The room was heavily decorated with gold and other rare and expensive stones. "Miss Melody, you're beautiful," Alice muttered with a proud smile on her face. "Thank you," I smiled, trying as much as I could to avoid staring continuously at the reflection in the mirror. I was afraid that my world would turn upside down if I basked too much in the joy of the moment. Ever since our return to Mallory, everything has been different and surreal. I find it hard to believe that I was finally living the life that I wanted. A sweet and love-filled life with my family.Derek kept his word and has been good to Estrella. They look like they've known each other for a long time."I've never seen a bride as beautiful

Chapter: Best Feeling Derek As I watched the siblings reconcile, I couldn't help but fear my loss. I witnessed Dorian rejecting Estrella and she accepted the rejection. Which means that I remain the only obstacle in the story of Melody and Dorian's love. However, one question stands. Am I willing to let go of the woman I love? Sacrifices are made in love, but leaving Melody is a sacrifice I'm unwilling to make. I searched for her for a long time, hoping to find the woman of my dreams. Never could I have imagined that she wouldn't belong to me when I finally found her. The moon goddess gave her to me but I threw her away with my hands and now that she belongs to someone else, I just can't let go. What will become of me if she leaves? If only Melody would give me a chance, then I would prove to her how sorry I am for all the things I said and did to her. I know that I have hurt her so much in the past and she probably won't forgive me, but I wish she would give me a chance to show her how sorry I am

Chapter: Reunion Or Revenge Dorian"I thought so too after Malia's death but Melody's arrival changed that." Estrella stared at me as I spoke. She was hurt by my words but I couldn't help saying that. Melody's arrival changed so many things in me. I thought I was lost, that I was locked in a barrel of darkness and pain. After Malia's death, I thought that life wasn't worth living, but Melody's arrival changed everything. At first, it started as my way of redeeming my family's deeds and as my way of avenging my parents' suffering, but as time went by, I became attached to her simplicity. I became attached to her and slowly fell in love with her. I even received the goddess' blessing and she became my second-chance mate. I was overjoyed. I wanted nothing more. Even though I was madly in love with her, Melody couldn't forget her first love. The man who broke her. The mate who rejected her. She kept stalling my proposal for years before she finally accepted it. I thought she would leave me to be with Derek w

Chapter: Selfish Love Derek"Give Dorian to me and I'll accept you as my sister."Estrella isn't entirely wrong. She is right in a way. If you're in love with someone, you want them by all means. No boundary is visible nor is it recognised. Love is selfish. I love Melody and I want her only for myself. I don't care who she chooses for herself nor do I care who the goddess has paired her with. I also do not care who the goddess has brought for me as a second chance mate. All I want is Melody and I don't care if the skies have to fall down just to help me get her, I just want her and my kids and I will not be at rest until it happens. Everyone might judge Estrella for being selfish, but I can relate with her reasoning. True love makes you selfish. Now I know why I was temporarily attached to Estrella when we first met. It's all because we have several similarities. We are selfish in love. I am selfishly in love with Melody and I'm not ashamed. In fact, I'm proud. I know that I have wronged and hurt he

Chapter: Twenty SixGiovanni The early morning sun crested over the distant hills, bathing the sea with its golden light. The sight of Mallory Kingdom’s towering gates in the distance sent a rush of excitement through me. I clasped my hands tighter in excitement, My heart pounded with anticipation, a mix of relief and urgency coursing through my veins. After weeks of danger, uncertainty, and searching for answers, I was finally returning home with the proof I needed to expose King Worden and stop the Rogues before they destroyed everything we held dear.Mallory stood tall on the horizon, its silver spires gleaming in the morning sun. The city was as majestic as I remembered, its walls a testament to the strength and resilience of its people. I could almost hear the bustling markets, smell the fresh bread from the bakeries, and see the familiar faces of friends and family who had no idea of the danger that loomed just beyond the borders.I glanced to my side, where Elena stood quietly .

Chapter: Twenty FiveGiovanni Two weeks. It's been two weeks since I became conscious in Grayson mansion. I had to find the secret hidden in there. I had searched the library and several other places to no avail. So, I decided to resume the quest of finding the hidden secret.The light flickered as I swept through the corridor, making the shadows dance against the walls of Grayson Mansion. The silence of the night was thick, broken only by the soft creak of the floorboards beneath my careful steps. For the past week, I had searched every corner of this place, each day growing more desperate, more determined to uncover the truth hidden within these walls.It had been a coincidence.or so it seemed that I had ended up here, rescued by Elena Grayson after being left for dead in that deadly Forest. However, fate had a strange way of working, and coincidences rarely existed in my line of work.Grayson Mansion had been whispered about in conversations I wasn’t meant to hear between Davis, the rogue's guard

Chapter: Twenty Four Giovanni"Grayson Mansion?" I repeated as I tried to sit.I wanted to see if I was indeed in a mansion. My eyes looked around again and I couldn't understand how I got there. I was with Davis, then he poisoned me and had me dumped or better to say buried somewhere, the how did I suddenly get into this place. I looked around again, thoroughly examining the place. The room was vast, its walls lined with shelves holding ancient artifacts and statues, I couldn’t begin to name. Heavy velvet curtains draped the windows, blocking out the morning sun, though a few determined rays managed to slip through, casting streaks of light across the polished wooden floor. The scent of cedarwood and lavender lingered in the air, a comforting contrast to the damp, mossy odor of the forest where I had been left for dead.I don't know how long I had been in Grayson mansion. My eyes wandered to the intricate tapestry hanging opposite the bed, depicting a battle long past.Surprisingly, I noticed that

Chapter: Twenty Three Giovanni "Where is this place?" I wondered as I opened my eyes to see that I had been brought to another place. This new place was different from where I was before. The environment. The scent of the surroundings. And the energy around the place. I've been moved to several places in the past few weeks since I got captured by the rogues. My brother, Aaron and I along with our friend Axel and some others had been trailing the rogues who had been trespassing on our lands. However, we decided to split to gather more information. Aaron was supposed to find their camp and other hiding and meeting points while I was to find the people behind them. Especially their King. During the investigation, I figured that the rogue king had some backings and they were prominent figures in the palace. I wanted to find out who those traitors were, so I ventured deeper into trailing them.Surprisingly, I discovered that the rogue king had indeed died in the hands of my mother, the queen of Mallory.

Chapter: Twenty Two Melody"Don't worry Zoraya. Now that you're here, you'll never be sad."Her blue eyes blinked with disbelief as soon as I said that. She looked at me like she was seeing something strange. I patted her head in assurance. "Trust me, Zoraya. I won't let a drop of tears come to your eyes ever again."She blinked innocently and a lone tear rolled down her eyes. She wiped the tears and hugged me. "Thank you," she sniffed. I could feel her body relax in my arms. She was starting to trust and feel safe with me. It felt good seeing her relax in my arms. "Let's walk," I took her hand as we resumed walking. She chatted away while we walked, leaving me to wonder if she really was the girl who arrived a while ago.In few minutes, I was aware of all that had happened in her life. Including the reason behind her pain. It felt bad knowing all she had been through at such an early age. She was at an age where she should be pampered and nurtured, yet she was ill treated her whole life. Not once

Chapter: Twenty OneMelody"You don't mind taking a stroll with me, do you, Zoraya?"After my conversation with Derek, I decided to take a stroll to clear my head. I needed my head clear and mind free to be able to perform my duties as the Queen. However, after walking for a while, I found myself outside the guest chamber. I didn't know why but I found myself wanting to be with the visitor brought in by Aaron, and surprisingly, I felt relaxed as soon as I set my eyes on her. I couldn't wait to bond with her. To speak to her. It was strange, but I couldn't help it, so I went with the flow."Of course not," she smiled and rubbed her hands on her clothes before taking my hand. Seeing that she felt dirty, thus reluctant to take my hand, I decided to help her get comfy. Though I didn't know why I was so bothered, I just couldn't help myself. All I wanted was to make her free with me. "Why don't we get you cleaned up," I looked behind me and my maids immediately got to work. They went into the bathroom in
