Aurora's POV

I froze when I saw the look on Scott's face; something wasn't right; I could feel it in my soul.

“What? What? What was going on?” I asked but Scott didn't answer because he didn't see what I did.

“What news has arrived?” Tristan asked for me and my eyes were fixed on Scott for any reaction.

My legs became weak and I fell to the floor when I saw tears drop from Scott's eyes to his hand. Just then, I was sure it wasn't good news.

What unpleasant news must have come? I pray it won't break me.

“Master Saint and Master Justin have passed away,” My world shattered when I heard those words. I guess my prayers won't be answered now.

“How did it happen?” Elena asked behind Scott, “They were fine just a moment ago.”

“They had consumed poison at the reception,” Scott announced and I shut my eyes tight.

How? What poison?

“Get the carriages and horses ready, we shall visit my in-laws tonight,” Tristan declared and walked out of the room.

Tears refused to drop out of my eyes

  • Aurora, The Lycan King's Mute Mate   Chapter 17

    Aurora's POV “Hmmm?” Both tears of happiness and sadness rolled down my eyes. I was happy I finally spoke but sad that Father never got to hear me speak. He wanted to hear his daughter's voice. “I….I…. spoke…” I cried and hugged Elena. “You lost your voice when you lost your Mother and gained it back when you lost your father,” Elena hugged me tight, “Say something.” “El…Ele…Elena,” I smiled and Elena giggled excitedly. My voice felt foreign to me. The last time I heard my voice, I was a child, but now it was different. Elena stood up, “I should inform everyone,” I hurriedly held her hand and shook my head. “No, we shouldn't yet; someone had tried to kill me on purpose with that poison. Father and Justin had taken that in my place,” I gave Elena's hand a light squeeze, “I want to find the murderer before anyone finds out, can you help me do that?” I will destroy that person who made my Father and brother lie like that on the floor. Losing my husband, Alpha Elijah, didn't make m

    Aurora's POV I stood up from the floor when I heard Ava's voice, I just needed to see who she was talking to. Anger surged through my blood when I saw she was talking to my stepmother. What nonsense is this? What kind of conversation was that? “I don't really know,” Mother wiped her tears as more tears flooded her eyes. “Indigo needs someone to be by her side right now, and my family can offer that support right now,” Ava held her stepmother's hand as she spoke sweetly. “What madness is that?” I questioned and Elena immediately told them what I said. “Why are you being heartless? I just want your sister to spend some time with us, especially now that she lost her father and brother,” Ava said with a calm voice. I shook my head, “Indigo won't stay in my home; she will never step her feet Into my house,” I said angrily, and Elena conveyed my message. “You are just a daughter in law while I'm a daughter, so I believe you know who has more right in that house?” Ava said slyly, mak

    Tristan's POV Seeing Aurora in that situation hurt; I could understand her as I had lost someone before, and I hope she copes better. I felt extremely hurt for her when the news got to us. “I need you to secretly investigate who had poisoned the drink at the wedding reception,” I said to Travis and he nodded his head. “Do you think it's someone from this household that wanted Aurora dead?” Travis asked a question that I didn't have an answer to. “That's impossible; no one from this house is capable of killing, and it has never happened; just do well to find out what happened that…” I paused when someone opened my room door. “What gives you the right to enter my room without knocking!!!” I yelled without looking back to see who had entered my room. The only person who could enter my room without any announcement was standing right in front of me. “What gives you the right to make everyone wear a mourning dress in this house?!!” My mother yelled. I turned to see her with the ladie

    Aurora's POV“She was trained to be an assassin,” I said the moment I entered my room.“Who?” Elena inquired. I sighed and sat on the bed.“Ava, Ava was trained to be an assassin; that's the only reason why she openly challenged me,” I fist my hair in my hand. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs, but I couldn't.“I wondered what would make a mere Lady to challenge the Luna, the queen consort, this all makes sense now,” Elena nodded her head as she spoke, she snapped her finger right in front of my face, “Does she plan to kill you at the duel tonight?”My jaw dropped in confusion, “What do you mean the duel tonight?Elena blinked her eyes, “Weren't you aware? Ava had placed the duel tonight, that's a few hours from now.”Why did she place the duel tonight? Everyone knew how exhausted I would be today; what was her motive?Elena held my hand and gave it a light squeeze, bringing my attention to her, “Do you think Ava knows something about Father and Justin's death? Is there a reas

  • Aurora, The Lycan King's Mute Mate   Chapter 21

    Aurora's POV I heard two metals clash against each other, and I didn't feel the impact of the sword, or maybe I was in the afterlife. I slowly opened my eyes to see Tristan standing next to me, his sword shielding me from Ava's sword. In a swift moment, Tristan pushed Ava with his sword and her sword fell to the ground, “Ava, That's enough.” “It's a duel Tristan and there are rules!!” Ava yelled and Travis helped me up on my feet. “My Lady!!” Elena ran to hug me with tears in her eyes. “I can see that but do expect me to sit and watch you kill my wife?!” Tristan yelled, and everyone stood to their feet. The word wife seemed foreign, he didn't treat me like one. “Rules are rules Lycan,” Ava gritted. “I make the rules!! I'm the rules!! I can change the rules anytime, Ava, and right now, I'm changing the rules,” Tristan threw his sword on the floor, “I declare you the winner, and that's it; there is no need to kill your opponent.” Ava glared at me; if eyes could kill, I

    Aurora's POV“Interesting,” Tristan laughed, then his face turned serious, “As from today henceforth, when I'm with Aurora, the two of you mustn't utter a single word,” Tristan warned Elena and Scott.I walked to my desk and picked up a pen and paper, “Then, as from today henceforth, we shall use this pen and paper to communicate,” I wrote and handed it to him.Tristan read the paper and tore it, “I won't do that; if you don't communicate to him, then there is no need to say anything.”I handed him the second paper that I had written on and he read it out loud to everyone's hearing, “Why did you marry me? I need nothing but the truth.” Tristan tore the paper with a smile on his face, “Everyone leave the room Immediately!!” Tristan ordered. Elena looked at me and I nodded my head in approval.“What were you saying?” Tristan took a step closer to me when everyone left the room, “Why did I marry you?” he sat on my bed, “That's an interesting question, why do you think I married you?”Wh

    Aurora's POV“My Lady, the Mustard powder is ready,” Elena handed me the bottle as I stood in front of the mirror looking at myself.“Thank you, inform….” I paused and hid the bottle inside my drawer when I heard my room door open.Why doesn't this family knock before entering my room?!I frowned my face but quickly masked it with a smile when I saw it was Grandma, “You are up so early?”I smiled and nodded my head, “I want to talk to you about something,” Grandma seemed worried for some reason.“I will be outside in case you need me,” Elena said and I nodded my head.I pulled out a chair for Grandma, and she sat, and I sat opposite her, “I'm really worried about something,” I nodded my head, urging her to continue.“That day at the wedding reception party, when they were to test Tristan's eyesight, did you pray that day? Did you desperately pray for him?” Curiosity sparked all over Grandma's face.Her question was weird, I didn't understand what she was trying to say. When she saw t

    Aurora's POV We all ran to Tristan's room, where we heard the screaming; Tristan's sister-in-law opened the door without knocking. “What was that scream….” Grandma paused when we saw Ava in Tristan's arms. “It.. hurt...I … can't… bear… it..” Ava cried as she tightened her hold on “Are you okay?” Indigo rushes to Ava. “My child, What happened?” Tristan's mother pulled Ava away from Tristan's hold and hugged her. “My body is itching a lot after I finish bathing with the water I prepared in Tristan's room; I can't bear it, Mother,” Ava cried as she used her hands to scratch her body. My eyes met Elena's eyes and I could see them glimpse with happiness. I removed my eyes and lowered my gaze. This wasn't what I wanted. I wanted to teach Tristan a lesson and now Ava has fallen into the trap I didn't set for her. “Who prepared the bath with you?” Tristan's mother asked and Ava shook her head with tears rolling down her eyes. “Nobody Mother, nobody,” Ava's body was red and

    Tristan's POV Hearing those words leave Diana's lips sounded like a betrayal to me; I paused and turned to her angrily, “What did you just say?”“It's almost seven months now, and there is no improvement; let your Mother clean up the room. Maybe then Aurora would understand the reality,” Diana said.“How can you say that, you know that's how Aurora is coping,” I was trying my best not to yell at her.“Don't you think she has mourned enough?” My lips felt sealed as a part of me understood what she was saying and a bigger part of me felt she was spewing nonsense.I jerked my hand off her hand, “You cannot tell a Mother when to stop mourning the loss of her child.”“I know that very well but what if that's the only way to bring her out of this depression?” I glanced at Diana, opened the door, and left the office.I didn't walk; I ran to the nursery; when I got to the entrance of the north Wing, my legs refused to move further as I saw Mother and some guards throwing the things out of th

    Tristan's POV I stood carefully behind Aurora trying my best not to make a sound as she hummed softly while trimming flowers in the garden. I was cold; I wondered if she wasn't cold as the snow had been falling heavily for some days now.These few months have been the hardest; Aurora wasn't eating; all she takes is tea; she walks around the garden looking distant and singing some children's songs.My wife has lost a lot of weight which makes me scared for her health. I'm not bothered that she still wears mourning dresses or dresses like a widow, I'm only bothered about her health.“Look after her,” I said to Elena, “I have some work to finish off.”I didn't want to leave Aurora, but I couldn't leave my duties like that, and some councilors were waiting for me in my office. Sometimes, Travis did help me with some work, and the councils covered up some work for me, especially the right state council. do “Thanks for coming all the way here,” I sat down when I entered my office, “So to

    Aurora’s POV Mother’s nature of emotional blackmail was still the same; she has always done it, and right now,w, she is still doing it.I was irritated, I wanted to show her that I was better than her at emotional manipulation, “Even better,” I emptied the gallon on my body, “Let us all go to hell.”“Tristan!!!” Mother yelled when she saw I was playing the same game with her.“How can I stop a grieving mother? I should have punished Ava but I felt it would be better if Aurora punished her because she was closer to our child than I was, so how can I stop her?” Tristan supported me, “If I was killed would you sit and watch? Wouldn’t you kill the person too?”“The situation is different, you are a full human, and her child was only a fetus,” Mother whined, “That child wasn’t even formed yet; it was just blood!!”I couldn’t believe what mother had just said, “A fetus? Just blood?” I lit another match out of anger.“Are you going to watch her light us?” Ava yelled and I walked closer to h

    Aurora’s POV “They killed your child!!” Diana said when she pulled me inside the nursery and shut the door behind her, “Are you going to keep pretending that nothing happened?”“Stop,” I shook my head as I pleaded.“I can’t stop, if I stop today then I have failed Skylar,” I placed my hands over my ears, “Do you think Skylar would be happy to see you in such a situation?”“Please stop, you are hurting me,” I pleaded with tears streaming down my face.Diana held my hand, she dragged me to the front of the cradle my baby was supposed to be in, “Look at that,” she forced me to look at the cradle but I refused, “Do you see a child there? No, there isn’t, do you know why? Because your child is dead!!! You child isn’t in the world of the living!!!”“No!!!” I covered my ears and screamed, “Please, don’t.”Diana pushed the cradle, she began to scatter the room and I ran after her trying to stop her from doing, “Not my baby’s room please, please.”Diana gripped my hand, “I won’t ask you to be

  • Aurora, The Lycan King's Mute Mate   Chapter 103

    Tristan’s POV It’s been days and I haven’t done anything. It’s not like I don’t want to do anything, it’s just that I don’t know what to do. Everything was on my neck; it was almost like before when I had Skylar in one hand and Mother in the other. I haven’t gotten the courage to see Aurora, she has been in her room, she wasn’t talking to anyone, she didn’t even want to see anything. I lifted my head from the table when I felt someone tap me on my back, “I have been calling you for ages.” “I’m sorry Diana, I didn’t hear you,” I apologized. I thought by now I would have exposed Diana and kicked her out of this palace but she was here helping me instead. “I know,” Diana sat opposite me, “I wanted to talk to you about Aurora.” “What about her?” I hurriedly asked, “Is she okay? What’s wrong with her?” Diana placed her hand on my hand and I calmed down, “It’s nothing much,” I let out a breath of relief, “I don’t like the fact that everyone is agreeing with her that her child is

    Tristan’s POVThe cup fell from my hand and scattered on the floor. Diana hurriedly carried the child from my hand.“You said something I didn’t hear right,” I didn’t even know when I stood up and walked to where Beatrice was kneeling, “Repeat what you said!!!”“I said it was Lady Ava who had asked me to mix pennyroyal and tansy in Queen’s Aurora tea the moment we found out she was pregnant,” Beatrice cried, “I didn’t want to harm another mother because I know the joy of being a mother but just like you have threatened me with my child that was the same way I was threatened with my child, a mother would go to any length to protect her child even if she has to harm someone else.”I scoffed, “Why didn’t you say something when you were given the order?!!! Why didn’t you come to me?!!!”“Everyone knows that Lady Ava is your best friend from childhood; if I had accused her without any evidence, I wouldn’t have seen this day, or would you have believed me?” I laughed out loudly like a madm

    Tristan's POV Beatrice stared at me without saying anything and it only made my blood boil, “Don't you feel like talking?” I balled my hand into a tight fist. “If you have already heard it then I believe you don't need any explanation,” Beatrice replied arrogantly. “How dare you speak that way?!!!” Diana yelled, “Do you know who you are speaking to?!” Diana stood to her feet angrily. “I know who I'm speaking to, and that's why I'm speaking with nothing but respect,” Beatrice answered slyly. “Explain the pennyroyal and tansy herb,” I gritted, “Else I will make sure you suffer, you will beg for water, you won't see, you will beg for death and it won't come.” “Even if you fed me to the dogs I still have nothing to explain,” Beatrice said adamantly. “Okay,” I stood up, “Anybody that can give me any information on Beatrice, no her weakness, if anybody can give me her weakness, not only would I free that person from here, I will make sure to give you three acres of land.” “Anyone?”

    Tristan's POV “Why are white flags raised on the road to the palace?” I questioned myself and Travis.“Maybe something tragic has happ….” Travis paused when we heard the sound of a bell, “Something tragic has happened.”My mind went blank, “Aurora” was the only name that crossed my blank mind. I didn't want to think of what couldn't or couldn't have happened, so I kicked on the horse to hasten its speed, and everyone rode their horse behind me at the same speed.I didn't wait for the horse to stop; I jumped down and ran into the palace, “Tristan,” Aurora called; she ran and jumped into my arms.I tightened my hold on her, “I'm glad you are Okay, thank you for being okay.”I was surprised to see the way everyone ran outside to meet me with a huge smile on their faces. Their eyes looked swollen, and the most disturbing thing was they were wearing mourning clothes.“What's going on?” I questioned as I pulled away from Aurora. I looked at her; I noticed she wasn't wearing a mourning dre

    Aurora's POV We were all in different worlds, they were bowing to their new king while I was in pain, not just physical pain but emotional pain from the supposed death of my husband.Tristan cannot be dead; it's not possible; he just left only a moment ago; I looked around, and I couldn't tell if I became more scared or more relieved when I didn't see Travis around.“My….. My…. Child….” I cried out as I saw blood on the floor, “My…. My…. My… baby…” I didn't want to lose my child, so I bent to the floor and started using my hands to pack the blood together.“Call the physician,” I heard Grandma's voice break behind me, “Take her to the south Wing.”I held my tummy protecting my child as both Diana and Elena carried me to my room in the south Wing. “Aurora, I promise nothing will happen to you,” Diana touched my hair with a small smile on her face. Anyone could see the smile was fake.I shook my head, “Not…not… me… save…. My… child…. please.” Diana's silence told me everything I need
