2024-10-29 19:42:56Despite knowing that he was a rougue and that I was q bit far away from home in woods that are not familiar to me, I was so taken aback by how handsome he was.
A scar ran from his right eye to the bottom of his chisel chain but that still didn't reduce his beauty rather it made him look more handsome in a fierce way.
"Are you done gawking at me?"
That was when I finally realised that I've been looking at him like an idiot, but I was trying to back away from him. He placed his hand that was free on my waist and held me closer to his chest.
"Come on since you have gotten the chance to look at me then I should get to look at you a little bit.
His finger left my chin and then went over to my neck sending shivers all over my body and then it ran into my hair giving me the unpleasant memory that it was now silver.
"Silver hair huh?" that was the most relaxed expression that had gotten over my head the entire night, then suddenly I was remembering the man with the blue eyes.
Suddenly one of the rogues behind him shifted into his own human form and worked up to the two of us.
"Boss, are we going to have some fun with her first?"
It seems like this handsome rogue was in charge of the rest, which sounded a little strange to the ears especially since rogues are known to be quite independent and move on their own for somebody to bring rocks together they would have to be in deed very powerful.
The man with his scar that was holding lovely to and his head over to the other one that has shifted I made that comment.
" just how foolish can you be?" he said in a voice that was both annoyed and at the same time calm in a frightening and cool way.
"It took me a longer time to recognise her because of the silver hair but it's her indeed, the feared Beta's daughter…just imagine how much money she will bring us when we ask for ransom."
Suddenly I remember the look of disgust my own parents had given me when they realized that I did not have a wolf and my hair was silver.
"Please let me go,"
It was as if I was just realizing the situation that was inside and the man's creep on me was like iron even though he seems to be holding me casually.
"And why would I let go of you now? You're going to bring me a lot of mone-"
The fear and panic inside of me made me instantly attack him and then I fell on my leg between the place where the sun doesn't shine and he folded up. I took the opportunity to begin running again but then they were chasing after me.
"Get her!" He growled after me, I was working on my two bare legs but they were chasing me with their wolf form they were definitely going to capture me soon.
I bit my bottom lip waiting for the inevitable when suddenly I crashed into a tree but instead of falling down on my back a pair of strong hands reached out and then two blue orbs were looking down at me.
It was the man that had been looking at me earlier.
He looked up at the rocks that showed up a few seconds later still holding me in his arms but now he balanced me on my feet.
The moment they saw him the first reaction with one of the rogues that have not shifted but remained in his human form.
"It's the Alpha King!"
I couldn't believe that this was actually the Alpha King!
The rogues instantly ran away fast enough to even forget their own shadows and then their leader was the only one standing there, he looked down at me.
"I guess we will be seeing each other again,". And then he shifted and turned.
I breathed out a sigh of relief, and then the alpha King escorted me back to my home without saying a word and his face not betraying any emotion.
When we stood at the doors of my home he finally spoke and gave me an offer that I was not expecting.
"I want you to pretend to be my Bride for thirty days…"
I was stunned, then he explained that his mother was pressuring him to get married and he needed somebody to pretend to be his bride to distract her.
"Thank you for saving me…" I said,"...but your offer is too sudden and I can't…I'm betrothed too…"
With his monotone voice he responded.
"The offer still stands,"
Suddenly I felt someone's arm on my shoulder, when I looked up I was surprised to see my sister.
When I looked back he was gone.
Becky held me firmly and walked me to my room, everyone gave way as if I was a plague and the next thing I knew I had my cheek pressed against a pillow, soaking it up with tears.
Tonight wasn't supposed to go like this!
I was tempted to grab my hair and pull out those disgusting silver strands, I couldn't stand looking at them when my eyes would stray across a mirror.
My sister didn't see anything and allowed me to cry to my heart's content.
Then finally she pulled away the silver hair from my face and asked me how I was feeling.
"Terrible, I wish I could just disappear!" I admitted, and then she kept my cheek that was when I realised that it was only my sister that have truly loved me at al-
"Good, you are finally starting to understand…"
Out of the blue a wicked smile painted her lips and she went over to lock her door then she came and continued speaking as if she had never paused.
"... It hurts doesn't it? For everyone to look at you and see you as nothing but trash…"
"Becky…I don't understand…" I said and her smile grew wider.
"How stupid can you be? I'm the one that cursed you!"

My sister suddenly started to laugh and I became more scared and worried going back on the bed. Then when she saw I was backing away she suddenly reached for my hand and grabbed it with her fingers. "Where are you going? It was just a joke!" I slapped her weakly across her shoulder."Becky, that wasn't funny at all, you really scared me!" I couldn't believe that I had thought my own sister would curse me. That would be completely heartless and Becky wasn't like that. But soon she was right about one thing.I began to understand how her life was, suddenly I was made to do all the chores in the house till the point that I would almost drop. My parents never talked about last night with me. It was almost as if they wanted to pretend that night didn't happen. However it was not for everyone else it didn't matter where I went to, there was always somebody that was talking about that night, and the moment they saw me they would either shiver away in fear or some would stare at me
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Misfortune
That single moment that Jake threw me away it's like a thousand years stretched out, even though we're not actually mated by the moon goddess ever since I was 16 he was the only man I ever picture spending the rest of my life with…to have pups with. Now that things had suddenly come out he will not hesitate to reject me in front of everyone. Shock gripped me so tightly that I was not even able to get up from the floor, but there was even more misfortune that was coming my way. Jake turned to his father and said. "Father, we cannot end our wonderful relationship with the Greysons because of one mistake…" He just casually called me a mistake and my parents agreed, nodding as I looked at all of them with my jaw to the floor. Before the Alpha could even get the chance to respond he kept on speaking;"... And I'm sure that you feel sorry for your Beta his mate they definitely did not ask to be crossed with this one…" It was almost as if I wasn't even in the room at all, at this p
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Unsure
I opened my eyes slowly, unsure where I was or what I was doing there exactly. The room was brightly lit, and there was a woman at the foot of the bed seemingly arranging something in a little blue box. My sensitive nose picked up the scent of disinfectant immediately, and it nauseated me. "Where am I?" I croaked, surprised at my voice and wondering if the curse that changed my hair and turned me into an outcast overnight, had also managed to turn me completely into a toad with a croaky voice to match. "Oh, you are finally awake!" The young woman squealed when she saw that my eyes were open, eliciting a weird stare from me because how could anyone be so happy that I opened my eyes, when I wished that I would never ever open them up or be alive again. She ran out of the room apparently to go get the doctor or something. While she was away, I managed to sit up on the firm clean mattress, and sit weakly, looking at my body and feeling tears well up in my eyes again. How could my fa

My heart was broken, but the blue eyes propped me up and kept me. It was easier to make a decision finally. "Oh… You look better than when I picked you up beside the shallow grave that was to house your cursed body." The Rogue King said, getting on my nerves for the umpteenth time. "How do you really intend to monetize me? Are you still thinking about my parents?" I asked, ready to play throw-and-go-find with a racket with him like lawn tennis. "Oh… You really think that I am counting on your parents?" The Rogue King Ethan laughed loudly, and his goons laughed along with him and stopped immediately he stopped. "I find this choreography really quite adorable, but you have no idea just how useless I actually am to you." I said, standing my ground, and flipping my silver hair. "You might not be aware, but somebody even more powerful than the Greysons is interested in your cute cursed self. I mean, I don't know what anyone would want with that silver mess on your head, but all I w
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Cursed
I was surprised when the nurse woke me up. She was always very kind to me, but kept her distance at the same time. I was still cursed after all, and an abomination to wolves everywhere in the world. I was surprised by the fact that she was removing me from the drip that I was still on, and bandaging up the parts of my body that needed to be covered. I laid there quietly and let her do what she was doing even though I did not understand anything. The doctor had told me just last night that I was going to be discharged after three more days of careful observation, so to have her suddenly remove me from the drip and everything else was a surprise to me. But I trusted the hospital, soI just trusted the process. "Please get dressed, Miss." She said politely, handing me some clothes. I stared at her in shock, not reaching out for the clothes, so she left them on the chair in the room. Before I could find my voice enough to form a coherent sentence, she had picked up her equipment and hu
Betrothed To The Rogue King   Saviour
Ethan wanted me in his home, but why? Why didn't he say something sooner? Who was my "buyer", and why was I with Ethan, and not with my saviour? He continued anyway, "We've been trying to get you released for quite some time, but your ransome payer refuses to follow all my instructions. He keeps thinking that he can just play me and get you from my grasp without paying." He chuckled as he lit his cigar, and his tone and demeanour scared me more than being chased by him and his wolves back in the woods. "Can I…" I stuttered, and took three deep breaths before continuing. "Can I ask why we are in your house?" I sounded dumb even to myself. He stopped smoking for a while and left his cigar suspended mid air between his index and thumb. "Were you deaf to what I just said?" He yelled furiously. "My way or no other way!" He stated with a note of finality. Why hadn't the person just listened to him? Why had they not just followed his instructions knowing very well how extreme and dang

When I got to the study, there he was, sitting behind his desk, sipping tea, with a stack of papers and documents in front of him, writing notes in his big notebook that was laid down flat on the top of the stack."How do I deserve this?" I asked desperately, setting my emotions free, stopping myself from running into his arms. Absence indeed had made my heart grow fonder. Ethan looked up at me with soulful eyes and a look that I remember from when he had taken me from the hospital. He stood up slowly, and walked even slower over to where I stood at the door. By the time he stood directly in front of me so that I had to look up at his tall frame to see his face, I was panting from exhaustion. "How have you been, little one?" The Rogue King asked kindly, and I felt a sudden and inexplicable urge to slap him hard across the face. I was his prisoner, not his love interest, so why was he looking down at my lips like that. I backed away from him. I noticed the look of hurt or something

The Alpha King was becoming unbearably restless with each passing day. He could not understand why the Rogue King had to be the one denying him access to the one person he wanted to act life with. He was angry and outraged by the constant space between himself and Clara. After having spent long arduous months searching for someone that was good enough to be presented to his mother, and spending a night watching the same person go from celebrity to outcast, he felt like he really deserved a chance to solve his own problems and by extension, hers as well. She needed a home, and he needed a wife - so both of them were good to go. But Ethan! Information eventually reached the Alpha King on the whereabouts of Clara. He had to pay a private investigator just to get the job done for him. Owing to the fact that it was a super secret mission because no one else was to know that Clara was just to be a contract wife for thirty days, he could not involve his army of wolves. And as such, he had

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.

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
