"I will like to request an audience with the King!" She voiced, staring at the King's special adviser. Staring at him without the mask, Devika noticed how dashing he looked, his body was muscled as she remembered, his jawline was sharp, his eyebrows were thick and straight but his lips were a bit pale, it was like they were losing their color.
"You look more beautiful without the mask, My lady" he bowed his head, Devika didn't wonder asking how he could recognize without the mask.
There was never a day Devika thought she would step her foot in the Palace, then the Adviser announced the festival, Devika was delighted when she entered that palace that night but she thought that was it and it was the end, she never thought she would come back here till two days ago when the King brought his first courting gift, which she couldn't send that because it would seem disrespectful and then the next day, more gift was sent to her, Devika knew she

She laid lonely on the bed, she couldn't bring herself up, she felt burdens on her shoulders, she felt heavy and pressed, she felt defeated. Never for once had she expected the King to react that way. He was supposed to understand but everything went wrong but there was no way she would marry the King. She would rather meet her end than face the betrayal of her mate, she wouldn't be able to bear it but what about her family, her mother, her father, and grandmother. What was going to happen to them?Devika sighed, feeling a teardrop roll down her face. She remained still the bed doors of her chambers opened and footsteps walked in but what made her react was the sweet scent that went through her nose, that sandalwood scent that could only come from her mate but unlike last time, it was mixed with a powerful aura, filled with dominance and authority. Her head immediately jerked up and was met with the familiar eyes of the King but in different attires. She slowly
"Exquisite, just as I remember" he smirked widely as he peered at the celestial creature sauntering into the hall. Step unvarying and sluggish, face differentiated and barren, jaw clasped. He instantly stood up from the seat, matching over to her, catching up with her in the middle of the room as he pulled her into his arms, bathing in her redolent orange scent but mixed with sage, his eyes snapped down to her neck, he found a bite mark laid peremptory on her neck. He grimaced in repugnance and veered back, moving away from her as if he felt sweltered while his eyes went obdurate and his nose breath out fire and the smirk on her face made his lividness combust."Hello Rhamione"Rhamione, the heavenly god of frost stepped back, his acrimony rising with every passing second as he realized this lady in front of him was unique, there was a variety of past and present.Her hair still twinkled that deep orange color that he ad
«PAST» Blood...! Her eyes broadened, not again, not again...! She chimed as her hands wiggled, her being trembled as stared in horridness at the blood covering her hands. Why...! Why again...! Her inner voice wept while her voice seemed to have hung on her throat, she wanted to cry but she couldn't bring herself to, she wanted to shriek and let the world know she had gone through again, for the ninth time. Suddenly she dropped to the floor, watching a pool of blood surrounding her, rushing out from between her legs. Suddenly, a teardrop slipped out, the pain in her abdomen wasn't enough to suppress the anguish she felt in her heart as her heart clenched painfully. Suddenly she choked out a sob, her shoulders vibrating as she let out suppressed cries, the wolf in her yowling and wailing painfully for the loss of
Unhurriedly, her eyes flickered open when she felt a hand massaging her jawline to her lips, for a moment she thought it was her mate but her facial expression wiggled when she saw the familiar face, gazing down at her, causing aversion with his enthusiasm. Catching her eyes, he sharply drew his hand away from her face but his eyes never for once left hers, showing no remorse for his actions but being physically and emotionally drained, Devika remained on the bed, hands interlocked on top of her stomach, she stared blankly at her brother in law. "You are sickening, Caesar" the words left her lips smoothly, without wavering. This man was repulsing from the moment she laid eyes on him and being in the royal household for more than a hundred years, this man had truly demonstrated his ghast colors. He was nothing but a serpent behind that decoy facade he always put on and the goddess watched him, maybe she had truly forlorn them. &nb
"King Alastair, why do you prefer to pay deaf ears to my words, Caesar might be your oldster but he has not bared any good intentions to you or your kingdom, he plans to topple you and embezzle your position, My Lord!?" Devika had verbalized, coming to stand beside her mate, going through indexes of the kingdom but when he sharply lifted his gaze and stared up at her with his dark, piercing orbs, she knew it was a lost cause as she gulped. Instantly, he reached out for her wrist and plucked her forcefully, Devika gasped as she brought her face down to his level, her heart clenched at his deadpanned gaze, instantly her eyes lowered in submission. "Alpha!" She whimpered, biting her bottom lip. She could feel her wolf yowling inside of her.His aura emerged stronger, showing his dominance over her as his angry scent filled the corners of their chamber. She loved it when he showed his dominance over her but not in this way, he was putting her in her place and she lo
"You said to help me" Devika peered at the witch before her, her face crammed with eagerness and eyes replenished with vitality."Does the King know of this?" The witch questioned, contemplated as the Queen shook her head before bringing her hands over her stomach, both could feel the esprit inside that womb."He won't want it""You know why he wouldn't want it, My Queen. Giving birth to that pup will kill you"Devika's eyes hardened and she glared at the witch. "I do what I have to do to conserve my child, Dya. I send for you because you said you will assist me not querying my decision or remind me of the consequences"Dya nodded. "Yes, but you know my powers had gotten weak being uttered profanity as a keeper" she rolled her eyes.Devika scoffed. "You need to do something and do it rapidly"Dya gawked at the Luna Queen, the determinatio
"shhh" She placed her finger on her lips, silencing, and luckily the horse understood her and kept quiet. She beamed, glancing around to make sure no guard was in sight, she slowly lose him from its holds.When suddenly..."Stop right there!"Instantly, she halted on her feet abruptly, gripping on her cloak."Turn around!"The same voice ordered, Devika bit her bottom lips as she slowly took off the hood covering her head and turned, giving a little smile before the person's eyes widened. For a moment she thought she was caught by her mate but even though they looked alike, Alastair and Aldrich were two different people."Mother!" Aldrich gasped at the sight of his mother, sneaking out from the palace. "You are sneaking out"Devika stepped forward. "Your Father can not know of this""Where are you heading, why are you leaving
"Why did you do this?" King Alastair polled blankly, his expression camouflaged by his poker face, simmering equanimity, and forbearance as he stared at his brother but only the goddess knew the beast in him that beseeched to be unleashed beneath his synthetic facade of collectivism. "For how long did you slate this or was I just plain bizarre and arbitrary to see what you were truly made of?" He continued, maintaining his calm posture and expression.Never for once did he think his brother would invade the home they worked together to blind, the Kingdom they swore to preserve...or maybe he was just outrageous to think that way.Caesar smirked, releasing his hands from behind him where thousands of soldiers from all creatures awaited for his ultimate command to finally put an end to the Alpha King. "You tell me, brother?" His eyes sparkled with rascality.King Alastair remained sitting on his throne, the same seat he had
