CONFRONTATIONDeep in the heart of the dense forest, there was a clearing, hidden from the outside world. This clearing was the meeting place for the Heirs of different packs to discuss matters of mutual concern. It was a place of peace and tranquility, a place where the beasts that roamed the forest didn't dare to venture.The clearing was large enough to accommodate a hundred people, with a massive oak tree in the center, standing tall and proud. The tree had been there for centuries, its roots dug deep into the ground, its branches reaching towards the sky. It was a symbol of strength and resilience, and the Heirs looked up to it with reverence.Surrounding the oak tree were several large boulders, arranged in a circular fashion. Each boulder was large enough to accommodate a group of people, and they were spaced out evenly, providing ample seating for everyone.The clearing was bathed in a soft golden light, filtering through the canopy of leaves overhead. The air was filled with
HAPPY TIMESGolder was up in her room, all dressed and agitated. She wasn’t agitated because of the events about to take place, but because of the events that had already taken place. She never envisioned herself thinking about anything on her birthday but apparently, she had no choice.She paced around in her room, waiting for them to announce her entrance before she would step out and into the magnificent hall.As people began to come for the celebration of Golder's 21st birthday, the hall was filled with a buzzing of excitement and expectation. When they walked into the room, they were confronted by a scene that left them speechless and unable to take a breath. The entire area had been completely turned into a dazzling wonderland, and every detail had been meticulously prepared in order to produce a breathtaking ambiance.The walls of the hall were covered in voluminous curtains that were made of a rich, opulent fabric in colors of deep crimson and gold. The fabric had been skillfu
HAPPY TIMES?"Who turned off the lights?" It would appear that nobody was fazed by what took place, so I was forced to inquire, "What in the name of flying monkeys is going on here?""Mom, Dad, Ari?"I was to the point where I was about to have a panic attack! They were unaware that I had only recently developed a fear of being in dimly lit areas. It appeared that I was the only one who was concerned; therefore it was very difficult for me to keep from becoming overly anxious.‘Alright, Golder, take a deep breath. You're fine! You won't need to worry about anything. You're home, and you're in good hands.’I placed my hands out in front of me to try if I could sense anyone else nearby, but all I could feel was the void around me."OK, you guys, we've got to stop laughing about this!" "I'm sorry, but I didn't mean for that to be amusing."I was completely paralyzed as my poor brain attempted to perform some rapid calculations.‘Oh no, brain! Don't pass out on me at this crucial moment!
GOLDER’S POVAs he stepped back and extended his hand to me, I couldn't help but chuckle to myself. As I gazed at him, I couldn't help but wonder what tricks he had up his sleeve.As soon as I stood up, slow music started playing, and it was at that very time that I knew we were ready to dance. The only problem was that Simon couldn't hold me while we danced but his chair could move in whatever way he wanted it to. And I didn't find this to be an issue at all.While we were dancing, I looked up and saw that the sky had become filled with stars, which appeared one by one in the manner of a celestial symphony. They moved across the night sky in a spectacular exhibition of the cosmos' brilliant brilliance, forming constellations that appeared to come to life with fables and legends from the distant past. Orion, armed with his powerful bow and arrow, stood tall and proud, and Cassiopeia shone brightly like a heavenly queen. The Big Dipper, with its easily recognizable shape, appeared to b
ENCHANTED“I thought you weren’t going to make it”“Cut to the chase Ginny! What do you want?”“I don’t really want anything. I only want to apologize and I want you to hear me out.”The waiter arrived with drinks Ginny had already pre-ordered.“Thank you” The waiter nodded his head and left “Simon, here” she pushed one drink towards him and he pushed it back to her“I’m not interested”She took a look at him and raised the glass to her lips and drank out of it. “See, it's fine. So are you going to have it now?” she asked almost pleading with her eyesHe looked away as he drew the drink to himself and took a sip from it.“I shouldn’t have come here”“But you did. And I’m going to talk, and you are also going to listen to me. I didn’t bring you out here for you to be feeling guilty or to guilt trip me. Okay?”“Well then, go ahead!”“Simon, when I told you the idea I had, I expected you to either agree with me or..”"Agree with you, Ginny? Let me refresh your memory about what your noti
REJECTED Golder reflected on all that had taken place between her and Simon as she sat on her bed and thought about it. She never entertained the possibility that her hunches were correct, and she didn't even bother to tell Ariana what her thoughts were on the matter.The day before, as soon as she arrived at her house, she proceeded straight to her bedroom, and she had not left there since that time. Everyone had come to see how she was doing, but she told them to go; nevertheless, she had no choice but to let everyone into the room today. And why?The day had finally come when she would have to acknowledge Simon as her mate, and she was not the least bit excited about it! She longed to be able to tell her mother that she was changing her mind about getting married, but she was stumped as to why she would change her mind. She reasoned that it would be inappropriate to tell them about Simon's act and the intense confrontation that they had. And even if she wanted to, she was unable
Wedding BellPrince Simon’s Point Of ViewI was still very much annoyed; flashes of Golder with that man on the bed still played in my head. “How could she do this to me?” I asked myself quietly as I closed my eye tight and bit my lower lip in ffrustration“Was it because she felt betrayed about me not telling her I could walk?”….I kept asking myself numerous questions trying to get answers to why Golder cheated on me. Well, I found none.I stood up looking at the mirror, I took my phone and called Jason.“Dum!Dum!....Dum!Dum!”….”hello the number you are trying to reach is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Thank you!”….a soft feminine voice responded.I need advice, I need help. What do I do?“I can’t continue with this relationship. She cheated and I was not going to condone that. I will go and tell dad that I saw her cheat and I want to call it off”…but as I got to the door, I broke down. I couldn’t tell anyone no matter how hard I wanted to scream it to the world. I w
Ginny’s Point Of ViewI nervously dialled Prince Simon’s number, my heart racing with anticipation. It had been months since we last spoke, and I couldn’t help but wonder how he was doing. I missed him terribly, and the thought of him being with another woman made me feel sick to my stomach.“Hey Ginny, it’s been a while,” Prince Simon answered, his voice calm and collected.“I know, I was hoping we could catch up,” I replied, trying to sound casual.“Sure, I’m free later tonight. How about we meet at the park?” he suggested.“Sounds great,” I replied, trying to keep my excitement at bay.I spent the rest of the day anxiously waiting for our meeting, my mind wandering to the past. Prince Simon and I had been in a relationship for years, but things had ended abruptly when he had announced his engagement to Princess Golder. I had been devastated, and had spent months trying to win him back, but to no avail.As I arrived at the park, I spotted Prince Simon sitting on a bench, his eyes sc

She was a ray of sunshine in my life, a precious gift that brought joy and purpose to my days.We sat together on a rustic wooden bench, surrounded by the fragrant blooms of the garden. Athena’s little hand rested in mine, her eyes wide with innocence and curiosity. She eagerly began to tell me about her day at school, her voice filled with excitement and animated gestures.“Daddy, guess what?” she exclaimed, her voice a melodic symphony. “Today, we learned about colors, and I drew a picture of a rainbow. It had all the colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple!”I couldn’t help but smile at her enthusiasm, my heart swelling with pride at her accomplishments. “That’s wonderful, my sweet Athena,” I replied, my voice filled with warmth. “I’m so proud of you.

My heart fluttered with anticipation as I imagined the moments we would share together, away from the responsibilities and turmoil that consumed our lives.Moments later, Princess Golder appeared at the entrance, her radiant smile illuminating the dimly lit courtyard.

The opportunity presented itself, and we seized it with unwavering determination.The Athens pack surged forward, a relentless force that pursued Liam’s retreating warriors.

I stared at the silent device in my hand, a mix of anger and concern coursing through my veins.Liam’s words had struck a nerve, reminding me of the precarious position we were in. The battle was not just about power and dominance; it was a fight for the safety and well-being of my pack, my family.
