Sapphire’s pov

The day of the wedding ceremony had finally arrived and I was assigned to make the wedding dress and also get the lovely bride ready

“ hey that’s too tight” Larissa yelped as I was tightening her corset for her gown.

I smirked as I fakely apologized, “ so sorry larissa”

She rolled her eyes as she looked back at the vanity

The wedding gown was a breathtakingly beautiful creation, a masterpiece of silk and satin that seemed to shimmer and glow in the light. The delicate ivory fabric was adorned with intricate lace and delicate embroidery, intricate patterns that danced across the bodice and skirt like tendrils of vines.

As I stepped back to admire my handiwork, I couldn't help but notice the sad look that had settled on Larissa's face. Her eyes, once bright and sparkling, now seemed dull and lifeless, and her smile was nothing more than a faint, forced curve of her lips.

I picked up the brush and began to smooth out her hair, my fingers moving deftly as I worked. "Is

    Sapphire’s pov As I stood before the ornate mirror, its surface etched with delicate vines and flowers, I gazed at my reflection with a satisfied smile. My raven-black hair cascaded down my back like a waterfall of night, and my emerald eyes sparkled with mischief.I wore a gown of rich, crimson velvet, its fitted bodice adorned with intricate gold embroidery that shimmered in the flickering candlelight. The skirt fell in soft, flowing folds to the floor, its hem embroidered with delicate silver thread that caught the light as I moved.Around my neck, a delicate gold pendant glinted, shaped like a serpent coiled around a ruby. My fingers were adorned with rings of gold and silver, each one bearing a small, polished gemstone.As I applied my signature red lipstick, the color seemed to match the mischievous glint in my eye. I giggled to myself, feeling a thrill of anticipation for the wedding ceremony to come.My chambers were a testament to my own personal style – rich, opulent, and s

I joined in the applause, trying to muster up some genuine enthusiasm for the happy couple.As the pack began to leave, Larissa and Dimitri made their way to a beautifully decorated carriage, adorned with flowers and ribbons. The pack gathered around, bidding them farewell and wishing them a happy future together.As the carriage drove away, the pack cheered and whistled once more. I watched as they disappeared into the night, feeling a mix of emotions that I couldn't quite untangle.As the pack began to disperse, I turned to my father, who was watching me with a warm smile."You did well tonight, Sapphire," he said, his voice filled with pride. "I know it wasn't easy for you, but you held your head high and showed the pack that you're a true member of our family."I looked down, feeling a mix of emotions.

I had spoken up and shared my thoughts, and my father and the rest of the pack had listened.I entered my room, closing the door behind me, and began to get ready for supper. I removed my earrings and placed them on my dresser, humming a soft tune to myself.Just as I was about to start brushing my hair, I heard a knock on my door. "Sapphire, may I come in?" my father's voice called out from the other side.Father? He doesn’t usually come to my bedroom and by usually I mean not ever . "Yes, please come in," I replied, eager to see what my father wanted.The door creaked open, and my father appeared, a warm smile on his face. “ may I have a word with you” father said his voice firm yet soft "Yes of course father Please, sit," I said, motioning to the chair next to my sewing kit.My father sat down, his

    Sapphire’s pov As I walked into the dining area, I was greeted by the warm smile of my father, who was already seated at the head of the table. The sunlight streaming through the windows highlighted the lines on his face, but his eyes sparkled with a warmth that made me feel at ease. "Good morning, Father," I said, bowing slightly as I took my usual seat at the far end of the table.But to my surprise, father looked up at me, "Uhm, why don't you sit here next to me today?" My heart skipped a beat as I hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. The seat he was indicating was the one Larissa used to occupy, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of discomfort at the thought of taking her place.However, my father's warm smile put me at ease, and I made my way to the seat, trying to push aside any feelings of unease. The maids came in with the trays of food, and my father and I began to eat in silence. It was a quiet breakfast, with barely a word spoken between us or the maids. The onl

    Sapphire’s povAfter the celebration, I had returned to my chamber to run a bath and unwind. I was brushing my hair, lost in thought, when I heard a knock on my door."Miss Sapphire, may I come in?" a soft voice asked. I recognized the voice as belonging to Mary, one of our loyal maids."Sure, come in," I replied, a hint of confusion etched in my voice. "Is everything all right?" I asked eagerly as Mary entered the room.Mary's eyes were cast downward, her head bowed slightly. "No, ma'am, it's just... a strange man is here to see you."My eyes widened in surprise. "A man?!" I exclaimed, my voice rising in alarm.Mary nodded quickly, her eyes still fixed on the floor. "Yes, ma'am."I felt a shiver run down my spine. "Who is it?" I asked, my curiosity piqued. "Did you by any chance catch a name or who it was?""No, ma'am," Mary replied, her voice barely above a whisper."Okay, then I'll be right out," I said, my curiosity piqued. "Where is he?" I asked."He's in the garden, miss," Mary

    Sapphire’s pov "Who am I?" I repeated, a hint of amusement dancing on my lips. "Well, that's a question most people spend their whole lives trying to figure out. But I knew exactly who I was."Dimitri's intense stare seemed to have left me momentarily stunned, but I quickly regained my composure. "What are you talking about?" I asked, confusion etched on my face.Dimitri's voice rose, his tone firm and commanding. "You heard me! Who are you?"I stood taller, a spark of annoyance igniting within me. "I'm Sapphire, Alpha Ragnar's eldest daughter and soon-to-be alpha," I declared proudly. "In case we haven't officially met, I'm your sister-in-law."Dimitri's expression turned unreadable, his eyes glazing over as if lost in thought. He stood there, frozen, his silence deafening.I took a step forward, my voice firm. "Please, before I inform my father of your arrival, you'd best tell me why you're here."The silence between us stretched out, thick and heavy, until I finally broke it. "Ehm

    Dimitri’s pov As I settled into my carriage, I couldn't shake off the feeling that Sapphire was more than just a coincidence. I gazed out the window, lost in thought, as the footman closed the door behind me."Your Majesty," the footman said, his voice low and respectful. "Shall I instruct the driver to take the usual route back to the palace?"I nodded absently, my mind still preoccupied with Sapphire. "Yes, yes. Take the usual route."The footman bowed and turned to leave, but I called out to him. "Wait."He turned back to face me, his expression curious. "Yes, Your Majesty?"I hesitated for a moment before speaking. "Do you know anything about the Ragnar family's history? Specifically, about their daughter Sapphire?"The footman's expression turned guarded, and he glanced around nervously before responding. "I don't know much, Your Majesty. But I do know that the Ragnar family has been...different. Some folks say they're cursed, others say they're blessed. But one thing's for sure

Mary came in and set the fire, her eyes filled with sympathy."Who did it?" I asked in a hushed tone, my gaze fixed on the flames. My reaction was still raw, my emotions simmering just below the surface."Pardon me?" Father asked, his brow furrowed in confusion."Who started the fire, Father?" I pressed, my voice firm but controlled. "You must have known who it was."Sadly, we don't," Father replied, his expression somber."Well, are you trying every day to find out?" I asked, my frustration growing.Father sighed, his eyes tired. "Look, Sapphire, it's late. Finding the person won't bring your sister back, so let's just drop the issue.

The weight of my loss was crushing me, making it hard to breathe. Dimitri's grip on me tightened, holding me upright.Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves echoed through the night air.

What had the fortune teller meant, especially when she'd called Dimitri and me a couple? I shook my head, trying to clear the thoughts. Taking a deep breath, I slowly drifted off to sleep.But my rest was short-lived. It felt like mere hours had passed before I stirred, groggily opening my eyes to find my room shrouded in a thick, eerie fog. I sat up with a start, my heart racing as I realized that my entire room was filled with smoke.I began coughing, my lungs burning from the smoke. Soon, screams echoed from outside, and I quickly stepped out into the chaos. Maids were running wildly, their faces panicked. I rushed to Father's room to rescue him, but he wasn't there.I turned to see the fire had already consumed part

It wasn't my place to ask what was on his mind, so I didn't."Is that all for the day?" he finally asked."No, actually," I replied. "We still have to see the village fortune teller.""Oh, a fortune teller," he said, a faint smile playing on his lips. "How interesting. Well, lead the way."The air felt lighter as we walked towards the fortune teller's home.“ so do you believe in fortune telling” I asked to cut the silence“ no I don’t, but it’s nice others do, I just don’t”Oh okay..

    Sapphire’s povThe next day, I woke up with a sense of determination. I was going to do everything in my power to avoid Dimitri and anything that had to do with him. After a quick breakfast, I gathered my things, ready to head out to the village for some work that needed my attention. Just as I reached the door, my father called out to me, his voice echoing with authority.“Is everything okay, Father?” I asked, halting mid-step, my heart racing slightly at the unexpected interruption.“I have some matters to discuss with your sister,” he replied, his tone serious. “So why don’t you take Dimitri for your morning patrol?”My stomach churned at the mention of his name. “Uhm, Father, I’m sure the Lycan King won’t want to see some villagers,” I protested, trying to mask the rising panic within me.But before I could finish my thought, Dimitri’s voice cut through the air, smooth and confident. “No, I would actually love to come.”I felt heat rush to my cheeks, a mix of frustration and embar

    Sapphires povDimitri leaned against the counter, a smirk playing on his lips as he took another gulp of water. “You know I’m the lycan king, right? I could smell you from a mile away.” His gaze remained fixed on the cup, not even bothering to look in my direction. My heart raced at his words—how did he know? When did he realize? With a resigned sigh, I stepped out from behind the door, feeling the weight of his presence.“If you knew I was there, then why didn’t you say so sooner? You had to make me feel dumb?” I shot back, my voice laced with a playful cunning as I approached him.“Cause I liked how cute you think you can hide from me.” Really? I raised an eyebrow, intrigued, as I closed the distance between us, stopping just inches away. I could feel his heartbeat, the intoxicating scent of him filling the air. A smile crept onto my face as I remembered my earlier thirst. I turned to pour some water into the cup, finally acknowledging my own needs. Taking a sip, I moved away fro

    Sapphire’s povI let out a deep sigh of relief as I settled into my bed, feeling the weight of the evening's events slowly lifting off my shoulders. Dinner had been a trial by fire, a delicate balancing act of tension and deception.I had managed to navigate it, barely, but the effort had left me drained. I slipped off my dress, exchanging it for the soft comfort of my sleeping gown.As I fell onto the bed, I couldn't help but think that this had to be one of the toughest things I'd ever done. The tension, the lies, the constant need to be on guard...it was exhausting.Just as I was starting to drift off, I heard a knock at the door. "Yes, who is it?" I asked, my voice tired."It's me, Sapphire," my father's voice replied.I hesitated for a moment before answering, "Yes, please come in."My father entered, his expression a mixture of concern and approval. "You did well today, Sapphire. For most of the time, at least."I felt a twinge of guilt, knowing that I had struggled to maintain

    Sapphire’s pov The sound of my father's voice echoed through the hallway, his words carrying a sense of urgency and excitement. "Arrange the banners well, please!" he yelled to one of the decorators.I watched from the window as the decorators scurried about, hanging colorful banners and streamers from the balconies and walls. My father had been busy all day, preparing for the arrival of his precious daughter, Larissa.The entire spectacle made me feel awful, a knot of anxiety twisting in the pit of my stomach. But I knew I had to put my best foot forward, to pretend that everything was fine, even when it wasn't.I turned away from the window and resumed my conversation with Mary, trying to distract myself from the impending arrival of Larissa and her husband, Dimitri. But before long, the sound of carriages arriving outside interrupted our conversation.I quickly stepped out into the hallway, my father right behind me. We made our way to the entrance, where the carriage had come to

    Sapphire’s povAs I lay in bed, reflecting on the past few days, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. The coronation ceremony had been a resounding success, and the pack had welcomed me with open arms. I had slipped into the role of alpha with ease, and the respect of my pack members was palpable.However, my father had been a different story altogether. He had been distant, almost detached, and I couldn't help but wonder if it was because he was struggling to let go of the reins. I pushed the thought aside, hoping that with time, he would come to terms with the new dynamics.Just as I was starting to drift off to sleep, a soft knock at the door broke the silence. "Yes?" I called out, wondering who could be visiting at such a late hour."It's me, Sapphire," my father's voice replied from the other side of the door. "May I come in?"I sat up straight, adjusting my nightgown as I replied, "Yes, please come in."The door creaked open, and my father stepped inside
