Chapter-50. Stargazing[Diana’s POV]Zephyr and I were sitting several metres above the ground on a wooden platform that was created across the trunks of four trees.That place was near the Black beach, at a safer distance from the cruel waves.I was wearing Zephyr’s coat, and that was the only cloth on my body. But I wasn’t cold. I was entangled in his warmth as we gazed at the starry night together.The sky looked like a mirror of the galaxy. I had never seen a more starry sky before.“I didn’t know a place like this existed. Who could have thought of creating a platform like this on the trees, and for what?” I said, skimming my eyes from the stars to Zephyr.He was already gazing at me.I dropped my gaze and looked away.“Former graduates of the Xenon academy created this place, especially for stargazing,” he looked at the sky, leaning back on his hand. “They believed that the land is closest to the sky over the Black bay.”“Why haven’t I heard of it?”“Because the ones to say these
[Diana’s POV] The ballroom was packed with gasps, and murmurs as Zephyr and I parted. I turned to the gathering. “I have something very important to announce. With the alpha as our witness and mutual acceptance, I am married to my mate, Zephyr. I was waiting for the prom night to make our marriage public. Zeph might be working as my bodyguard because of the odd circumstances that aren’t hidden from the pack. But with all sincerity, I accept him as my husband in front of everyone.” I could literally hear Zephyr’s beats and feel his fingers turn cold as I made that announcement. He peered at me, too baffled to speak a word. Another wave of shock ran through the crowd as the gossip turned into chaotic murmurs and I knew the news would spread throughout the pack by the morning. “Congratulations, princess,” Silas, a boy from my class, came forth with his date, Juliette. “You make a perfect couple with your mate and husband, princess,” Juliette said with a warm smile. “Yeah, my hear
[Diana’s POV] Zephyr and I rushed to the palace. Right when we reached outside my father's office, I saw Reese come out of it. My heart caught an anxious pace. He definitely told father about my announcement. What a childish jerk! He looked at me and then glared at Zephyr. I literally wanted to punch his face, but I held back. I knew I had to take responsibility for my actions, so I will. Without saying a word, Reese walked past us, deliberately bumping his shoulder with Zephyr’s. “Mind your steps, lowborn,” Reese said, gritting his teeth. Zephyr stepped closer to me, wrapping his arm across my shoulder, “certainly my prince. The path’s all yours.” Reese grabbed Zephyr’s collar, yanking him roughly away from me. “I am looking for an opportunity, lowborn. The day I get one, you are going out of my sister’s life for good.” He snarled. I tore Zephyr away from Reese and stepped in between them. “Don’t force me to open my mouth in front of father because that will not end well
[Diana’s POV]I glared at Archer.With a frozen smile, he hid behind father.“Alpha, save me. Princess will kill me,” Archer said timidly.Father glanced at him from over his shoulder and sighed, shutting his eyes.“Diana, the only reason you know nothing about wizards and the world of magic is because I ensured you didn’t. Forgive Archer, ok?”I grunted, tensing my brows.“Why? Why should I forgive him? I asked him about his wands, and he said they were collectibles for some magical novel. He lied to me.”“Because I ordered him to,” father said.He walked to me and stroked my hair.“Diana, initially, I thought the best way to protect you would be to keep you away from the outer and the magical world. But, I was wrong. The only way to protect you is by introducing you to the world we have been hiding you from.”I was even more confused.“Why do I need to be protected or hidden?” I asked.“You will get all your answers. We need to start with the beginning and that is why Archer will ta
[Diana’s POV] “You must have heard about the fallen angels, princess. The ones who later came to be known as the Devil trinity.” Archer asked. I nodded. “Yes, the three most feared devils of all time.” “Right. Albaris, Ikrai, Madiero became the three demon kings and Serith became the queen of all demons. The three angels brought with themselves almost all the secrets of heaven and divinity,” Archer said. “And Serith now had half divinity and half demon powers. That is why her eyes had two different colours. One was blazing like the fire of hell and the other colder than the frozen glaciers,” father said. I widened my eyes. I touched the corner of my eyes. I shook my head. No, it can’t be. I shouldn’t overthink. There would be hundreds of people in this world with heterochromatic eyes like mine. It doesn’t have to mean anything. ‘Yeah, right…’ Kiera said nervously. Archer cleared his throat, breaking my reverie. “Princess, are you ok?” He asked. “Y-yeah,” I said. “Just a l
[Diana’s POV]“All Serith could do was try to protect her people from the ambush that came absolutely randomly with Micah’s army, outnumbering hers every time. It was all done according to Micah’s plan,” Archer said.“But even after Serith had accepted her defeat, Micah didn’t stop his armies. For Micah, it was a war to prove to Serith that in the end he, a man, would be the one to dominate her. And kill every last one of the offspring that was born from Serith crushing his ego, disgracing him and his pride by dominating him and stealing his seeds,” father said.Archer took us back into the Cloris valley. Father, Archer and I sat on the rocks on the bank of the Cloris river that flowed across the valley.The fairies were still hiding behind the leaves, flowers and bushes, but I could see several of them sneak at us from their hiding spots.“Serith understood Micah wouldn’t stop until he wipes off all her children, so she gathered the leftover demonic werewolves and took them to an uni
[Diana’s POV] Father stood before me, looking into my eyes. His brows knit with fear and guilt. “You are my daughter, Diana. That’s all I know,” he said, caressing my cheek. “You are my daughter, and that’s the only thing that matters to me. Nothing else is even worth considering.” I stared at him blankly. I didn’t know what to feel. If numbness could be felt, I would say I was feeling it in my entirety. “The prestigious light bender who was married to alpha Urza, was it luna Willa?” I asked. Father dropped his gaze as he clenched his jaws. His adam’s apple bobbed as he gave a curt nod. I chuckled through the numbness clawing up my body. “No wonder she hates me so much,” I mumbled. “No, Diana…” father held my shoulders, but I slid his hands off me, stepping away from him. “She does… that’s why she didn’t want me to leave the pack. The Jupitus pack asked her to kill you and then me. They are willing to face the worst of the worst, but not me… isn’t it?” I held my heavy head.
[Diana’s POV] Zephyr kissed my forehead, slowly caressing my cheek. He looked at me, giving me a calm smile. I clenched my fist, feeling myself fall deeper into a kind of love I always yearned for, but never received. I hugged him, snuggling in the curve of his neck. He draped his arms around me, cradling me to his chest. My heart skipped beats at his every touch, planting his warmth on my skin. I gulped hard, thinking a thousand times before I kissed his adam’s apple. He stopped stroking my back as if he had frozen. I bit my bottom lips. Trailing down my hand from his chest to his abs, I unbuttoned his shirt. With every kiss on his body, I felt my body heat drastically. “You should rest, princess,” Zephyr said. I finally looked into his eyes and whispered, “I am resting.” I hesitantly tore off my gaze from his. “I am sorry, I… don’t know what I was thinking…” I felt the heat of his gaze burn my cheeks. “I… never mind me. I should’ve asked you before. I am sorry…” Embarr
