Betrothed To The Rogue King   Familiar waters
There was no way that Jake was ever going to just let me remain married to the Alpha King. He was raging and raving all over his pack, talking endlessly to his father about how he had to pull any strings necessary to make sure that I was his. "What are you really doing, Jake? You and I are already betrothed and bound to wed soon. How exactly are you running after my sister even after she has married someone else? I thought you loved me. She is his Luna, Jake. Get over yourself and smell the pheromones. This rage of yours is ugly and very unnecessary." Becky said to him, doing everything to ensure that he got married to her and that they would stay locked in. "This is bigger and deeper than love, Becky. I do love you, but Clara's wolf is twice more powerful than it had been prophesied that it would be. I need a powerful wolf like that beside me in assuming the position of Alpha of this pack. I cannot appear weak to neighboring packs, or this pack is in mighty trouble." Jake explained
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Dreams
CLARA'S POV I had a dream one night, and it got me thinking about a lot of things. I felt like it was finalky time to broach the subject after everything they happened between the Alpha King, Jake and I. It was finally time to really talk about our contract, and whether or not we would be taking our love forward and stay married, or I would be taking my payment and leaving. "Clara, do we really need to talk about this now? I really don't think that I can let you go." The Alpha King said to me while rubbing my tummy lovingly. I gazed deeply into his eyes, feeling a surge of affection and adoration wash over me. As much as I loved being held in his strong arms, I knew that we had to address the elephant in the room sooner or later."Jake, I know that we've been through a lot together. But we need to talk about our future. Do you see us staying together after the contract ends, or is it time for me to go?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.He sighed heavily, his expression sol
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Dream (2)
As my dream continued, Jake and I made a decision. We would seek out other gifted individuals, those who had the power to shape the world around them. We would train them, teach them, and help them unlock their full potential. We would create a new generation of heroes, who would carry on our legacy and protect our world from all who threatened it.It was a daunting task, but we were up to the challenge. Together, Jake and I set out on a new adventure, one that would take us to the far corners of our world and beyond.And as we journeyed together, we knew that no matter where our path took us, we would always be together, hand in hand, hearts beating as one.I woke up with a gasp, sitting up straight from the dream. My sudden movement shook the Alpha King, and he sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes to be able to think straight. "A bad dream, Baby?" He asked drowsily and I looked at him in confusion, nodding slowly. "Oh, it's alright, my love. Let's cuddle and go back to sleep. I promise

Being so busy with being Luna and everything else that came along with being married and organising the Moon, I forgot to pay attention to the people and things that actually mattered to me. Martha and I had drifted so far apart, barely speaking with each other like we used to do because I spent my nights in the Alpha King's room after our marriage. There were nights when I still slept on my own in my old room. But even then, I was too tired to have any reasonable conversations with her.I felt incredibly sad and terrible about this already, but I had to play host, as well as do so many other things. I was incredibly sad and thrown off balance when I heard about Martha's sudden illness. I ordered for her to be taken care of by the family physician immediately, so that she would be alright. I was completely shocked and thrown off balance after the physician checked her and returned with results of the series of tests carried out on her. "She is three weeks pregnant, Luna." The physic

I started to feel very bored at the castle after a while. Luna duties were heavy and fulfilling, but also very exhausting. I needed a break from the mundanity of my life. "Darling?" The Alpha King called out to me in bed and I turned to face him. It was a Sunday morning, and we had not gotten out of bed. "Yes, Baby." I said quietly with a faraway look on my face. "Are you good, my love? You have been mostly silent and unhappy lately. Is everything alright?" He asked, and I smiled sadly at him. "Honestly? I am just really tired, my darling. I am in need of some quality respite. I am burning out badly and I guess it is beginning to show just how tired I actually am…" I replied, feeling too tired and drained. "I am so sorry about that, my darling. What do you say we take a vacation? Just you and I enjoying sunsets, ocean views et al… What say you, my love?" The Alpha King said lovingly with so much mirth in his eyes. I could not hide my joy as I looked up at him with teary eyes. "R
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Memories
I felt like my life with the Alpha King in the Castle had slipped into a very predictable routine. It was something that I sometimes feared would end us whenever I went on my overthinking spree, but it simply had not. At least not yet. I sometimes wondered if he missed Morrigan, and if he probably had secret rendezvous with her. The mere thought of it made her blood boil and made her feel very uncomfortable. The Queen mother after her return to the castle was tentative on all her actions. I did not completely trust her, so I had eyes on her and Gamma. Attus had asked his mother to live with himself and Martha, but she declined, saying that she preferred to live in the castle where the memory of her late husband was still present. I wanted to return to my original pack. I wanted newer challenges and a new life. I loved my life with the Alpha King as Luna, but even the vacation had not completely worn down my itch to live a proactive life. I wanted to be eby myself and not have to alw

"How could you even bear to still stay in the same space as him after everything you went through at his hands? I would… If it were me, I would have… Arrrgh!" I yelled, turning red from my anger at the injustice. "So, imagine my fury when I noticed the old patterns with you, Baby. I literally lost my mind. I know how we were not in love at first, so it would be even easier for you two to bond and get obsessed with each other. I did not know what to do because we have a standing rule, that nobody ever talks about or mentions that entire ordeal." The Alpha King shook his head sadly. "I still fight so hard to get over everything that I lost when Attus betrayed me and slept with the first woman I ever loved. And. To think that Morrigan and everyone else tried to call my attention to the possibility of it and I turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to all of them. I was too in love to want to hear anything else. It started out exactly like the both of you always being seen together and spend
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Making the steps
Even though the Alpha King and I had discussed everything conclusively, I had to take a chance and go for what I wanted out of my life. So I packed a bag, and my packing was my way of convincing myself that I wanted to take a chance on myself. I had betted on myself that I could be a good Luna, and now, it was time to face and resolve my past so that I could move on finally and find peace with myself. "I am going back to my parents' pack," I said simply to the Alpha King on my way to the bathroom to have my evening shower. He stopped tapping on the laptop on his work desk in front of him and turned to look at me. But I kept walking like I was not aware of his gaze. "I am not sure I heard exactly what you said, my love." He said, standing up and walking into the bathroom with me. I turned to look at him as I took my robe off and stepped into the jacuzzi. "Oh, I'm pretty sure that you heard me, Darling. You just want it to be that you did not hear right. But sadly for you at least, y

I nodded, feeling grateful for her words. "I know, but I just don't know what to do. I feel so trapped."Becky leaned in, her voice soft and reassuring. "You're not trapped, sis. You always have options, even if they're not immediately clear. And remember, the only way to move forward is one step at a time."I took a deep breath, feeling a sense of clarity wash over me. "You're right. I need to take things one step at a time. And right now, that means figuring out how to make things better for myself."Becky smiled, her eyes filled with pride. "That's the spirit. We'll figure it out together. And if you need to stay here for a while, that's perfectly fine. You're always welcome here."I nodded, feeling a sense of relief. "Thank you, Becky. I don't know what I would do without you."We spent the rest of the day talking, laughing, and reminiscing about old times. And as the sun began to set, I felt a sense of hope, of optimism for the future. I knew that I still had a long road ahead of

As I continued on my way, I realized that this was one of the most fulfilling experiences I had had in a long time. Helping to bring people together and create a sense of unity was truly rewarding.But my work was not yet done. There were still external threats to the castle, and we needed to be prepared for anything that might come our way.One day, as I was walking through the castle, I heard the sound of horns in the distance. I immediately ran to the walls to see what was happening.In the distance, I could see a group of raiders approaching the castle, their banners waving in the wind. The guards on the walls were scrambling to prepare for the attack.I knew that we had to act quickly. I raced to the queen's chambers to inform her of the impending attack. She quickly assembled her advisors and knights, and we began to prepare for the defense of the castle.The knights were ready and eager for battle, and the peasants were doing their part as well. They had been trained in basic c
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Chance
I'm thinking of leaving Xavier again."I said at the nail salon with Mila and Ellen, and they looked over at me with pity in their eyes." Don't look at me like I said I'll drink acid, girls!" I said, and they blinked."The Irene problem, huh?" Mila asked, and I nodded sadly."I don't want to resort to making her life miserable," I replied. "But I just can't take it anymore. She's always making snide remarks and trying to one-up me. And don't even get me started on the baby. It's like Xavier has completely forgotten about me and everything we had."Mila and Ellen exchanged a knowing glance. "Look, we get it," Ellen said. "But have you considered giving Xavier another chance? Maybe he just needs some time to come around and realize how much he's hurting you.""I've given him plenty of chances," I retorted. "But it's like he doesn't care. And as for Irene, I don't

Attus put a comforting arm around me. "I'm sorry you've been going through all of that," he said. "But you're not alone. I'm here for you, and so are your friends and family."I leaned into him, feeling grateful for his support. "I know," I said. "But sometimes it feels like that's not enough. I feel like I'm trapped here, with no escape."Attus was quiet for a moment, deep in thought. Then he spoke."I know we can't change everything that's going on in the castle," he said. "But we can try to make things better, in our own small way. We can spend more time together, and with our friends. We can support each other, and be there for each other."I looked up at him, feeling hopeful for the first time in a while. "You're right," I said. "We can do that. And maybe, in time, things will get better."Attus smiled at me, his brown eyes warm and reassuring. "I believe they will," he said. "We just have to take things one day at a time, and be there for each other along the way."I nodded, fee
Betrothed To The Rogue King   The birth
Months flew past like seconds and one night, Irene's loud screams woke the entire castle. She was in labour. Withy how dramatic she was, hse made life a living hell even for the Alpha King who'd had two children with me and never had to suffer so much with me. "I am dying!" She screamed, scratching, punching and kicking everyone and everything in her way. The midwife and nurses quickly arrived at Irene's chambers, trying their best to calm her down and carry her to the delivery room. It was a difficult task, as Irene continued to thrash around, screaming and cursing everyone in sight.Finally, they managed to get her to the delivery room, where she was immediately immersed in a large basin of warm water. Irene had insisted on a water birth, as she claimed it was the most natural and pain-free way to give birth. But as the contractions intensified, she began to regret her decision.The midwife and nurses did their best to support her through the labor, but it soon became clear that th

Irene sneered down at the little girl. "I don't care what you meant. Just stay out of my way from now on, or you'll regret it."Luna ran off, sobbing uncontrollably, and Orion soon found her and asked her what had happened. When Luna told him, he became upset and ran off to find me. When he found me, he told me what had happened and I immediately went to find Irene."Irene, we need to talk," I said firmly, my eyes blazing with anger."What do you want?" Irene snapped, her hand resting protectively on her pregnant belly."I want to know why you slapped my daughter," I replied, trying to keep my voice calm."She got in my way, and I warned her to stay out of it," Irene replied, her voice dripping with disdain."That's not an excuse to hit a child," I said, my voice rising. "You could have hurt her. She's just a little girl.""She should know better than to get in my way," Irene said coldly. "I don't have time for her childish games.""She's just a child!" I exclaimed, my anger getting t

"I'm sorry," I said again, my voice breaking. "I never meant to hurt you. I love you both so much."Luna and Orion clung to me tightly, their tears soaking my hospital gown. I could feel the warmth of their bodies, the beating of their hearts, and I knew that I never wanted to lose them again.As we sat there, huddled together in my hospital bed, I realized just how much I had to be grateful for. Despite my struggles, I still had the love and support of my children, my family, and my friends. And as I looked at Luna and Orion's tear-streaked faces, I knew that I had to do everything in my power to make things right."I promise to do better," I said, my voice thick with emotion. "I promise to fight my addiction and be the best mother I can be."Luna looked up at me, her eyes wide with hope. "You mean it, Mommy?""I do," I replied firmly. "I'm going to get better for you and your brother. I want to be here for all the good moments, to watch you grow up and become the amazing people I kn

I lay in the hospital bed, feeling alone and ashamed, and I knew that I had to face my husband and own up to my mistakes. I couldn't continue to hide from him, couldn't continue to avoid the consequences of my actions.As he walked into the room, I could see the anger in his eyes, the disappointment etched on his face. He stood beside my bed, his arms crossed over his chest, and I knew that I was in for a stern lecture.He spoke to me in a voice that was both stern and compassionate, reminding me of my responsibilities as his wife and as the Queen of our kingdom. He told me that my actions had consequences, not just for myself but for our entire kingdom, and that I needed to take responsibility for my mistakes.I listened to his words, feeling the weight of his disappointment bearing down on me. I knew that I had let him down, that I had failed in my duties as his wife and as a leader in our kingdom.But even as he spoke, I could see the love and concern in his eyes, and I knew that h
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Awaken
As I awaken in the hospital room, I am greeted by the sight of white walls and fluorescent lights. The room was small, with a single bed in the center, and medical equipment scattered throughout the space. I felt groggy, my head aching, and my stomach churning. The events leading up to my hospitalization were hazy, but a dull ache in my chest reminded me of the intense emotions that I was experiencing.As I looked around the room, my eyes caught a glimpse of the ashtray sitting on the bedside table. I reached out and picked up the ashtray, examining the contents. It was filled with cigarette butts, and the stench of smoke filled the air. I realized that I must have smoked an entire pack of cigarettes, one after the other, in an attempt to drown out my thoughts and emotions.I remembered taking swigs from a bottle of vodka, the warmth of the liquid filling my stomach as the alcohol took effect. I felt numb and detached from my surroundings, lost in a sea of self-pity and despair.Tears
