“Stop this bullshit,” I grabbed him again, this time by the collar of his shirt. “This was what you intended to do to do when you showed me your face, right?”Cypher shrugged his shoulders. “Answer me, dammit!”He answered not with words but with his fist. My face turned, and I let go of his collar.
~Zephyr~I couldn’t stop thinking about my brother. The way he had walked out made me wonder if he was ever coming back or going to go after the alpha king. That night, as I lay on my bed with Sapphire in my arms, sleep didn’t come. Early in the morning, before Sapphire woke up, I headed to the king
“Nonsense!” the alpha king chuckled. ''How could you have decided when you fit the role?” He pointed a finger towards me. “Without you, the shadow would never have been found, and everything that happened was all thanks to you, so you deserve to be on the council,” I tried to argue, but he cut me of
“I just came here to congratulate you on being one of the council of elders,” he shouted, but I knew that was a lie, so I turned him around and pinned his hand against his back.“Lies!” I shouted.“No, I am telling the truth!” he responded quickly. “I am not lying about anything!” he shouted.“Then
~SAPPHIRE~Zephyr wouldn’t talk to me. Ever since he returned from the hospital after he fainted, he hadn’t said a word. Even when we headed back to the war pack, he refused to speak, and I knew that whatever was going on with him was probably related to the outcome of the meeting.But how was I sup
His expression changed, and I saw the rage in his eyes. He was trying so hard to control the urge not to scream at me yet again. He acted like the perfect gentleman, but I wanted something else. I wanted to know what was going on with him and why he had that look on his face. I wanted to see the kin
~ZEPHYR~I have been a jerk towards Sapphire for the past few days, acting like I didn’t care, but I did. For her sake, she had to be in the dark about what Dane knew. I was still trying to figure out how Dane found out who I was and where he had gotten the information from. When he mentioned the ta
“I am sorry that I have been mad at you lately, and even though you can’t hear me now, I want you to know that I will always cherish our memories together. Once I return from the war, I will give you the best life.” My lips brushed against her soft skin, sending shivers down my spine. I wanted to ki
Both stopped arguing and turned their attention toward Sapphire, who loudly screamed, her face contorted in anger. The table fell silent, and she made the announcement again. “My water just broke!” she shouted, louder this time.Wahaya’s voice echoed in my head. “Help her!” he shouted.“I think the
~ZEPHYR~A Year Later,Sapphire organized a family dinner in honor of Cassandra. According to her, it was what Cassandra would have wanted. Since everyone had been busy with different duties since the coronation, it was the perfect time to gather and have a family dinner.I had thought the dinner wo
I heaved a deep sigh and looked up at the sky, smiling, knowing that Cassandra was watching us and that we had succeeded. ‘’we finally made it to the end, and we won!’’ Zephyr continued. ‘’I am sure that everyone who had lost their lives one way or the other is proud of what we have achieved!’’ he
The announcer’s voice boomed through the arena, and the crowd quieted. ‘’The coronation ceremony is now in session! Let us all stand and sing the Eradon anthem. ‘’ Zephyr grabbed my hand and pulled me up as the slow instrument played, first joined by the crowd's singing. ‘’Oh Eradon, The land of t
~SAPPHIRE~‘’Finally!’’ I muttered to myself as I stared at my reflection, tracing my fingers on the Purple sapphire necklace around my neck down to the beautiful, deep, rich purple dress that hugged my curves perfectly. The full skirt fell in soft folds to the floor, and I felt like a true queen.
They all started crying, murmuring amongst themselves while the Luna queen continued shouting the alpha king’s name. ‘’let the judgment begin!’’ Zephyr shouted. The alpha king was first pulled forward and dragged to the executioner block. His head was placed on the cold, wooden platter, his eyes s
I shifted on the bed and heaved a deep sigh as the camera showed Dane. ‘’ Dane, the mastermind behind the alpha king,'' Zephyr continued. ''He and the alpha king plotted against me after discovering my identity. They took over the whole Eradon, and Dane took on my title, holding my mate captive for
~SAPPHIRE~I slowly opened my eyes to the steady beeping of machines and the antiseptic smell. The scent of disinfectant and sterile air filled my nostrils, making my head spin. I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my temples, forcing me back onto the pillow. ‘’Luna,’’ a voice sounded a
When Dane saw us rushing out, he took his chance and joined the crowd. No one could stop him because we were all too busy trying to get out. The countdown continued, the numbers ticking away with alarming speed. ‘’10, 9,8…’’ Now, everyone was safely out, and it was just Cypher, Zephyr, and Silver
