Helena’s P.O.V“Stop it!”The horrendous scene unfolding in front of my eyes made me screech, I was barely able to breathe after all that walking. As Beta Ralph informed me about Alpha Gladwin’s visit, a glimmer of hope lit up my world, I begged Susan to go there. She did try to teleport me through her magic, but she coughed up blood on her way. After dropping me at the end of the corridor, she instructed.“Walk straight. Double doors on the other end, is the entrance of the throne room.”I staggered towards my destination, as the decree of my divorce, Zayden’s death wish, and intense growls accelerated my feet. I collapsed on the ground after making it to the room.Alpha Gladwin was the first one to respond, he embraced me in a warm hug before my head could bump on the floor. I thanked him sincerely.“I’m sure that you’ll never let me fall, Alpha.I’m glad to be your little Helly.”Alpha Gladwin and his Luna were the two other names of the Moon Goddess for us in childhood.
Helena’s P.O.V. “Do you know the name of that ungrateful king?” The reaction of King Edgar in response to this query was still fresh in my mind even after coming back to my room. His aghast expression was a guilty pleasure. But as soon as the duty maids left me alone, I hid my face in the pillow and burst into tears. The brave Helena was gone, only a young little Helly was left in that ocean of tears, who missed her dad dearly. “Where’s our dad, mom?” “Why do people call us orphans?” Between our brother-sister duo, I was the first one to notice that a father was missing in our family. Like Zayden had his mom and Alpha Gladwin, like other omegas working at the pack house had two parents. I remembered that it was our fifth birthday when we insisted on knowing the truth, so mom told us. “Your dad died in a car crash, my little angels. He’ll never come back.” So according to the myth of our dead relatives turning into a star, Liam and I selected a star in the sky and s
Helena’s P.O.V. “Locking doors during daytime is considered offensive in the Royal Palace, Crown Princess.” Standing tall in her royal glory, the young ethereal beauty, Queen Isabella Bradley, questioned me sternly. Her ocean blue eyes were icy glaciers, scrutinizing me from head to toe. After opening the door, I didn’t kneel or bow to welcome that uninvited guest, which had bombarded me with several etiquette related to Royals. “The Queen is the most respectable status, second to the King. You should kneel and bare your neck in submission, Crown Princess.” Like, Whoa! I was supposed to kneel before a vampire? Unbelievable! I crossed my arms over my chest and smiled professionally. “As I’m an outsider, I have a different method to show respect. So, this is my standing ovation for you, Queen.” “Your Highness!” She snapped at me, fixing the gold crown on her head. Although that crown was ruining her Britney spears look, Queen Isabella was flexing her position with it. Co
Zayden’s P.O.V. “So, the question is, how much can you contribute to this cause?” After being humiliated in the Royal Palace, I was walking on broken crystal pieces barefooted, the sharpness of those broken pieces piercing through my soul. In a single shot, my home was shattered by that bastard King, I couldn’t swallow my insult and called an urgent meeting for rebel. Council members, my friends and other packs indebted to me were gathered in the main hall of the Council’s building, waiting for my order. “Don’t ask, Alpha Zayden. Just tell us, how can we serve you?” Alpha Kai, the close friend of Alpha Bryson, even came to assist me, that was proof of our strong belief regarding repayment of favors. Overjoyed by their joint response, I pushed forward a file regarding war’s expenditures and requested, “Please fill in the details of warriors and money you can easily add to my army.” In just half an hour, the numbers tripled, far better than my initial estimate. Then the next s
Helena’s P.O.V. “Where do you think you are going, Crown Princess?” This uncanny question rendered me immobile, my muscles locked in paralysis. My breath hitched, caught in my throat, a suspended moment shushed me as if shock had momentarily stolen the very sound of my voice. I would have died with a sudden heart attack if the owner of that voice wasn’t a kind friend. Susan flashed before my eyes like lightning, she was gasping for breath. “This isn’t a safe place. Come with me.” She held my hand and dragged out my unwilling heart, who was trampled over by her unanticipated appearance. Susan didn’t stop for a second and pulled me back to her home. Her voice was barely above a whisper as she questioned me. “Do you need anything, Crown Princess? Are you feeling unwell? Where are your maids? How can you walk so far in such deteriorating health?” As she fired off multiple questions in a quick succession, I chose to sit first and catch my breath. My plan was destroyed b
Helena’s P.O.V. “Beauty, education, and financial condition are the parameters of our society to judge a person’s integrity, but it can’t define a character of a female. A woman is more than those superficial standards as she possesses the power to remain calm in any situation, solving the issues with her intellect, and most importantly, she has a gentle heart to feel the broad spectrum of motherhood. And it’s not necessary to bear a child to experience this heavenly feeling, women have a default setting of motherhood in them. A daughter can be weak, a wife can be fragile, but a mother, she can fight the Devil on her own for her kids.” The teenage Helena was scared while getting married, then she was also scared when her husband accused her wrongly. But after being a mother, I became oblivious of the word “fright”. If anything stood in the way of my little angels’ betterment, it was bound to be destroyed. No one was allowed to play with my pups’ future. Susan told me about the
Helena’s P.O.V.The ethereal beauty illuminated by the soft rays of the morning sun mesmerized me. I didn’t feel a bit of fear while looking at her unrivaled magnificence.The sensation of calm and serenity enveloped my existence in a protective embrace, those violent orbs were fixed on me, they made me connect with the owner instantly.“Who are you?” I hurriedly questioned, bothered by the silk veil hiding her half face. It was a shame that such elegance was masked by a simple piece of clothing, but I was intrigued.After confirming that she wasn’t my mom, through her eye-color, my impulse was taking over my mind.Why and how did she enter my meditation? What was the purpose of her appearance?Was she a friend or a foe?I put aside all of my reasoning and greeted her.“Hello. I’m Helena. May I know who you are?”The extent of relaxation of my tone also amazed me, it was all natural as if she was my companion from long ago. She took two steps forward, her dreamy voice s
Helena’s P.O.V. After discussing my future with my inner self at length, I slept for four hours straight for the first time in this Palace prison. The results of meditation were out of this world, more than I had imagined before. My life was an example of achieving every girl with great struggle as I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth to begin with. Working hard for the necessities, my love life was a mess, and not to mention my married life, it was also more than a test to prove my worth constantly. However, this meeting with ‘Nova’ was indeed a new beginning. ‘Nova’ was the name of my whisperer wolf; her divine presence had brightened my world with her unique warmth. This communication finally made me realize why shifters were so fond of their feral sides. They were like our friends, giving us free guidance in danger, supporting us in every thick and thin selflessly. This blessing was truly a grace, which no one appreciated much, mostly praising their physical strength
