I think Cam broke her 😭
Two days earlier "What are you talking about?" He gets off me and sits down beside me. I don't dare move for fear he'll pounce on me again "You know at first I wanted you dead" he says smiling as if we're talking about the weather and not his plans to kill me "But then I saw the way you looked at him and thought if I could get you to look at me the same way, I don't know...I didn't think beyond that. But just now, the way you were staring at me was different. Like you'd woken up from a dream. When did you start remembering?""I don't know what you're talking about" "Okay. It doesn't matter. I'll just erase everything and start all over again" "So you do admit to erasing my memories?""Of course, babe. Is there a need for me to deny anything at this point?""Why?""Because I can" "No, Cam. Give me a reasonable excuse. Something I can accept" Despite everything, I don't want to hate him. He's helped me these past few months and if possible I want to un
Her chest rises and falls in even breaths. She spent most of the night mumbling to herself and only fell asleep when it was almost morning. After we got back, I coaxed her into taking a bath but she barely ate dinner. Twice she was lucid and recognized me but it only lasted a few seconds. I hate leaving her for even a moment. Because of me, she's suffered so much. But I also can't blow off the ministers again. They're waiting for me to hold court. Snobbing them will only pique their curiosity then they'll come looking for the reason. A light knock on the door has me lifting my head. "Come in" The door opens and a young woman enters. "Your Majesty, Merlin sent me" "What is your name?" "It's Saylor, Your Majesty" "Merlin must have picked you because he thought you are trustworthy. I want you to look after her while I'm not around. If anything happens to her, I will end you" "Yes, your majesty" I get up and face her. She looks young but there's determination in her eyes. She won't
"How is she?" "She'll get better soon" "Do you have doctors over there that can cure her? Or shall I send you a few?" "Sophia is stronger than she looks. She will overcome this. Don't worry about her" Leander sighs "You have to be patient with her this time. No more rushing or being mean to her. She's gone through enough" "Is Upton still there?" "He left a month ago. Word is he got back together with his mate" I was wondering when he'd finally leave. Camden must have manipulated him into going in search of Sophia. How he knew she would go back to Arctic Warriors is a mystery I'd rather not solve. "I won't be back in a while. If you do see someone who looks like me, call me immediately" "You mean..." "He might impersonate me especially if he has nowhere to go or just wants to play games" "I've known you since you were in diapers. I remember potty training you. No one can fool me into thinking you're them..." "I'm busy. Don't bother me if it's not an emergency" I hang up and
Being the Lycan king's girlfriend isn't so bad. I don't know about others but these guys are filthy rich. Everywhere I turn, all I see is gold. Windows, doorknobs, vases, cups, spoons. It's like everything they have was made from gold and Saylor told me it was the real deal. Am I rich? If not then I don't have to worry. A few stuff from Kaden's kitchen is enough to set me up for life. Although, why would I need it if I'm the king's girlfriend? Aside from living in such a luxurious place, I also get an attendant which is just a fancy name for a maid. She showed up in the morning right after Kaden left and offered to help me shower and dress. What century are these people living in? "His Majesty normally goes to court then comes right back when it's over. He barely leaves your side" "Is that so?" This feels unreal. Waking up in a palace next to a king with no memory of my life? Sounds like a book. Did I go through a portal and accidentally ended up here? I mi
"Why are you looking at me like that?" We just finished dinner and all throughout the night, he hasn't stopped staring at me. It's starting to make me feel uncomfortable. What is he planning in that head of his?"Because I can" All of a sudden, I'm afraid. Terror makes my throat constrict, robbing me of air. I grab the edge of the table struggling to breathe. Kaden is on his feet and beside me in a flash "What's wrong?" "I...I can't... breathe" "You can. Look at me" he lifts my face and commands me to breathe. My body has no choice but to comply. Although there's a bad taste left in my mouth. Once I can breathe properly again, I slap his hands away and get up. "Don't ever do that again" "You were having an attack. I couldn't sit back and do nothing""I know but..." For some reason, I hate the way I felt when he used the command. "What triggered it?" I shrug. He walks toward me and pulls me into his arms "Don't think about it then. Why don't you tell me wha
I didn't think it would happen so soon. This feels like a dream. It was all so easy that I can't help waiting for the other shoe to drop. I'm normally confident in everything I do but when it comes to Sophia, there are times I find myself hesitating. Even though I claimed her and we marked each other, it doesn't guarantee that she'll stay once she regains her memory. It was foolish of us to do this now but even if it was just for a day, I wanted her to be mine in every way. With no worries about the past or the future. It's selfish of me to wish she never remembers. I'm tempted to make sure she forgets the past forever but I can't bear to hurt her. Her mind has already been manipulated enough times. If I damage her further, I'd have no one to blame but myself. Besides, she just managed to get her wolf back. I can't let her efforts go to waste. "What are you thinking about?" She asks drawing drawing circles on my chest with her finger. I've lost count of the number of times I've made l
"What's with the turtle neck? If I didn't know you, I'd think you were trying to cover up my mark" "That's because I am" I snap my head toward him "You are? Why?" "To avoid gossip" "Are you kidding me?""Stop right there. It's not what you think" he says adjusting his sleeves. He's an ass but a hot ass. I wouldn't be surprised if women threw themselves at his feet. But now that we've marked each other, they should know he's taken. Why is trying to hide it? "Unlike wolves, our marks don't remain visible. It'll disappear in a day or two" "Then all the more reason you should display it for all to see. Unless you don't want anyone to know about it" "Correct" Ugh, I knew sooner or later, he was going to start showing his true colors. He asked me to be his queen but it's not even a day later and he's already going back on his words. I'm not stupid. It's obvious no one will accept me as their queen and I'm fine with that. Being with him is enough. But if he
"She tricked me too. I didn't even know she was your mother" "Find her and tell her to cancel it. I'm not going" "The invitations have already been sent out" Kaden huffs in annoyance and I know it's because he doesn't like these kinds of parties. I crawl onto his lap and wrap my hands around his neck "We can sneak out tomorrow night and go to the other side" "Because they can't find us there and drag us back?" "Then just attend it. I've never been to a black tie event" "How do you know that?" "I'd never forget something like that" "But you can forget me?" "You're being a big baby. Stop sulking and find yourself a tuxedo. I'm going to try on the dresses your mother sent me" I try to leave but his hands go around me. Holding me hostage. "On one condition" "Name it" "Let me fuck your ass when we get back" Goodness, is it me or is he horny all the time? I do want to dress fancily and attend those types of parties. But Kaden's reason isn't bad either. "Your wish is my command,
