Bending to the Lycan's Warth 92
EdwardMy royal council felt it was wise for me to have relations with the next potential king of Oakheart, so they went ahead to request Sebastian’s daughter’s hand in marriage. In return, I would get as many armies as possible when I needed them to fight Damien, and they would get other juicy advantages from Galentia too. The plan made sense, but it made no sense to my heart because I was still very much in love with Edwina, even though my heart was shattered.I accepted and got engaged to Rebeca. Sebastian would not bring his men to fight with me because I have refused to finalize the marriage. I wanted revenge, I wanted to bring all the perpetrators of my mother's death to justice.Damien killed my father, and I have been looking to have my revenge on him, but he is never in a stable place. He and his rogues moved from town to town causing havoc. Sometimes when I get news of him and his rogues raiding some village or town, I rush there with my men, even though I know we are not en

EdwardI stayed out under the moon, watching the stars with my guards, waiting for the morning, waiting for the sun to rise so that I could take my love back home with me.While we waited, we suddenly heard hooves and heights of horses coming towards us.We weren't expecting anyone, and I don't think anyone knows that we are here, so what could it be?The scent was a familiar one, but I couldn't place my finger on whose it was.One thing I was sure about was that it wasn't someone whom I liked.My guards and I braced ourselves in the short time we had as the sound came closer, and to my discomfort, it was the King of Sandcastle. How and why is he here?He and a number of his soldiers marched forward towards us, and when they got closer, they halted.Marquis got off the horse and majestically walked up to me where I stood.I have never had reasons to have problems with Marquis, but since I realized that he was planning to marry Edwina, his name and presence began to irritate me. How da

Edward “Bold of you to assume that you and your men are capable enough to take Edwina away from here while I stand and watch,” I said in anger. “Anyone who lays a finger on her will receive the anger of the Lycan king! You Know that you do not stand a chance against me with your armies even at my weakest KIng Marquis, so I will advise you to thread carefully. We wouldn’t want the king of Sandcastle to die a senseless death without leaving an heir to his throne yet!” I struggle to understand the reason behind his motive. Last I heard about him, they said he got himself a new wife after Edwina and I left Sandcastle so what does he still want from her? I will be foolish to let him leave this place with Edwina. “Oh, I hear you loud and clear King Edward! You have threatened me with a lot of things but I will not stand down! All you have done is hurt the princess. You got all her parents killed, but you wouldn’t stop there. You will not stop until you erase her off the

Edwina I was laying on the sick bed as usual waiting for sleep to come and also not looking forward to going back to Galentia. But what choice do I have? I am weak and I do not even have a plan on what to do but I know what I want to do. Since Edward is eager to please me and make everything right, I think this is the best time to take advantage of the situation. I will make him my weapon of war just like Damien made me his. I will go back with him to Valencia, but I will not go back as the same Edwina that everyone knew before. I am not weak anymore. Anyone who tries to step on my toe will get exactly what they deserve from me. I regret and curse myself for being stupid all this while but that phase is over now. I was finding it difficult to shut my eyes and sleep. Tonight seems to be a full moon, and for some reason, I want to sit under the moon. In my little lone time, I thought about how I went, begging Marquis for help and I’ll advise me to stay back with him.

Edwina I could see the disappointment etched on Marquis' face. It is quite heartbreaking, But I am in no mood to move on or have a better life. The frivolities of life are meaningless to me now; all I want is revenge. Maybe after I get that, I can find peace, but I know that sitting in some fancy-looking palace with glassy, moisturized skin, dressing like royalty, and being swept away by some man is not the solution I need. It used to be, but now the idea just irritates me. “Why, Edwina, why have you chosen to always reject me? What have I done wrong? What is my offense, Edwina? All I want for you is to have a good life. Is it a crime to be in love with you? This man right here has hurt you several uncountable times, but you still choose to be with him. Is it my fault that I fell in love with you foolishly and refused to see all the red flags even though they kept staring at me right in the face? You have made me look so foolish countless times, but here I am, I keep coming

EdwardI didn’t want Edwina to be here to see all this but with her calm and weak voice, she managed to diffuse the situation. Is it just impossible to see her that way and not listen?She looked tired but beautiful. I can already see the change in her body and skin, she is well-rested and she has been eating well. She is relaxed now that she does not need to run or look at her back from time to time.I just feel terrible As I consider what she has gone through.I didn't make her life any better either as I inflicted more suffering on her.Marquis is here offering her the comfort and support I never had for her. Would you blame her if she took his hand of support?Well, I don’t care what she thinks or what Marquis either. She will not leave me on my watch.Marquis moved closer to her and they began discussing more intimate things. I can hear everything that he tells her and I can hear what she says back to him. If I were to judge, I’d say they were lovers before.It breaks my heart to

EDWINAThe next morning, I woke up to find myself cozy on the bed. I don't remember coming back to the house by myself. I sat up to navigate my environment then one of the guards announced“She’s awake!” And then the healer's apprentice ran to me to clean me up to get me ready for the journey ahead of us.When they were done, they put me in a comfy chariot with Edward Rode and then we departed for Galentia. We did the old man and his home farewell and left.I felt some way about going back to Galentia. This place was supposed to be my home now another woman resides there and therefore she is the queen to be. This is torture for me and if I were my old self, I wouldn’t be able to stomach the thought of it but I didn’t come here looking for love. I only have one focus and when I achieve that, I leave this place for its inhabitants.The ride back to Galentia was a long one but I didn’t feel it because all I did was sleep and eat.Edward became my watch guard, making sure that I was alrig

Edwina“To what do I owe your visit, Rebeca?”Rebecabdiamissed the staff who were attending to me and began pacing around the room.“Edwina! Princess becomes a slave and slave becomes a kidnapper…you are back here again but I don’t see you wearing your maid uniform. You have a lot of chores that you left behind, did you think you could escape them by changing into a rouge? Come on Edwina. I almost didn’t recognize you with your beautiful hello gown. You almost look like royalty again…” she mocked“ oh come on Rebeca, this look doesn’t suit you either! I mostly know you as the bitter jealous bitch, not this charade of sarcasm you’re putting on. I know why you’re here sweetie… you’re here for your man. You’re scared!“Oh shut up Edwina! I know why you’re here. You couldn’t just stay dead? Why the hell are you alive?!” She roared like a mad woman.“I’m here because your man saved me! He wouldn’t let me die in peace. Go and ask him..” I said in an unserious manner because I can’t take Reb
