His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 45
-Darius- We decided to attack in the middle of the day. The night would have granted them too much of an advantage. The big army was gathered on a hill with me in the front, along with lots of fire witches and light witches. We needed all the light we could get. It was so quiet on the day we decided to attack. It was like all the animals knew what was going to come. I was unsure exactly how this would go. I feared the worst, but I believed this time it was better to expect the worst. The Dark Ones were not going down without a fight, and I felt them almost watching us. I felt them keeping a sharp eye on all of us to see what we might do. I looked at the big and dark forest, wondering how it was living there and what their world looked like. I was probably the only one interested in finding out, but I wouldn’t let that stop me. I wouldn’t let that stop me from doing what I had to do. Everyone was just waiting for my command. "Are we ready?" I asked the fire witch closest to me. "We a

-Katherine- My sweet Katherine… The battle didn’t at all go the way I had hoped. We thought there were so few of them. We thought they were fighting each other, making their own numbers dwindle. We were so wrong. They work together. They know how to fight and stand strong. They may seem barbaric, but they aren’t. They are clever. So much more clever than I ever anticipated, and now I do not know how to continue. I am scared for myself and my men. I am scared at how they doubt me, but also at how I can save them from getting killed. Each time a life is lost, they need someone to blame, and I am there. I will gladly accept that responsibility, though, if I just knew how to save the rest. But I am unsure if we will ever be able to win this war. You should have seen the dark wave coming towards us. You would have thought we were doomed as well. I really hope we are not, though. I pray I can come home to you again. I pray for a solution every day, but it won’t be long before I have to ma

-Katherine- After finally snapping out of my trance and waiting outside the infirmary, one of her ladies came out. She only glanced at me with a dark look, then stormed off. I believed she was going to find Acan, but I didn’t think it was good news she was bringing. Slowly, I inched closer towards the infirmary, hearing crying and screaming from inside. The screaming didn’t sound full of fear anymore. Just an agonizing scream from losing something. I didn’t think Silver would care that much. She didn’t care about her existing children. Why would she care about one that hadn’t been born yet? But it didn’t make the guilt go away. I didn’t know the bracelet might do this to her. I didn’t know that it might make her lose the child. Shit… What have I done? I moved so slowly that Acan and the young lady were able to come back before I had even entered the room. Acan stormed inside with the lady, and I remained outside instead. I fell against the wall, feeling like I could hardly breathe. I
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 48
-Darius- I read the tragic news of Silver’s pregnancy. I didn’t like her at all, but I didn’t wish for the pregnancy to end in such a way. One letter was from Acan, talking about it shortly, but then one from my wife worried me more. She spoke of how she believed it was her fault for Silver losing the baby, and I was unsure how to respond to that. I knew Katherine was willing to go far to destroy Acan’s and Silver’s lives, but this was something else. Katherine did write to me that she hadn’t thought that was what was going to happen. When she bought the bracelet, she had seen Silver end up in an accident, but that could have killed the child too. My wife’s anger was blinding her, making her do something she didn’t know she was capable of, and I couldn’t help her because of how far away I was from her. I couldn’t just return home to her and fix the mess she had gotten herself into. Somehow, she would have to figure this out on her own. At least she had removed the bracelet from Silve
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 49
-Katherine- Things had changed a lot since Silver’s miscarriage. I noticed the clear cracks between her and Acan. Something dark had settled between them. I couldn’t quite say what it was, and I felt bad for enjoying it a little. I was the reason why these cracks had appeared, and while I didn’t mind seeing the anger shimmering in their eyes as they looked at each other, I did feel bad for the unborn baby who had to pay the price. I had put the bracelet away, though. I had made sure no one had found it or that Silver was even looking for it. I had made it seem less valuable than it was, and she had thought there was no reason to look for it anymore. She had grown quite distant, though, not wanting to talk to many people and drinking more, which only made Acan draw further away from her. I had begun to spy a little on him, seeing if he might be meeting with any women behind Silver’s back, but so far I had found nothing. He and I, on the other hand, were spending lots of time together.
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 50
-Katherine- No one said a word through the entire dinner, and Silver was attacking her food with the fork and knife, cutting so hard it made screeching sounds. Acan and I glanced at each other, finding it very weird. I knew, of course, what was bothering her. Acan, on the other hand, seemed more oblivious to it, not able to pick up on the subtle signs of a woman doubting her husband’s loyalty. I saw it, though, and even though I was not ready for a battle between Silver and me, a true showdown, I was happy about the chaos that was evolving. It would explode at some point. We couldn’t avoid it, but I would like to wait a little longer, just to make sure I stood stronger before she came after me. Besides, I didn’t want something to happen to my child. At least she couldn’t accuse me of being pregnant with her husband’s child since I had gotten pregnant before Darius left. Acan did leave before we did, and when it was just Silver and me and a servant taking the children away, she turned
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 51
-Darius- A thought had lingered in my mind for a while, and since I was not going to do another attack against the Dark Ones at the moment, I thought of something else. It was a foolish plan of mine, and I was most likely going to get killed because of it, but what choice did I have? I was too scared to make a move at the moment, especially after the wonderful gift of heads they gave us. I had to be the one willing to make a sacrifice now, but I believed it was best no one knew what my plans were. So in the middle of the night, when my own powers were much more powerful because of the darkness, I snuck to my horse, leading him in between the tents instead of through the camp, so no one would see me leave. When I was far enough away from the camp, I got on his back and rode towards the forest. Because I was a Dark One, I could see much better in the darkness, and I had no problems leading my horse there. I got off his back, though, not wanting to take him with me in there. I took off m
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 52
-Darius- The Dark One in front of me, their leader, looked at me with an evil smile spreading on his lips. I was unsure if I was doing the right thing here. Maybe I was just giving him everything—the best way to destroy me, the best way to throw Adorna into chaos—or maybe we could help each other. Maybe I had to sell my soul. I was unsure, but I had to figure it out. I missed Katherine, and I did not want all those men out there to die. I did not want to die myself. But it was a good question to ask if I would gain anything from revealing all of this. Maybe I was dooming all of us, but what choice did I have? Another battle would only result in more deaths. Who knew how many were hiding in here? Who knew how many I would have to take down just to get back to Katherine? If there was an easier way, I had to take it. I had to try, at least. "So, you aren’t the real Dark Prince?" he questioned, pacing a little back and forth. "I am, but I am not this time's Dark Prince," I explained. "

His Unbeloved Queen Epilogue
-Darius- My beautiful queen came over to me, kissing me before sitting down beside me. Years had passed since we ascended the thrones, ruling together, though my wife did most of the ruling. The way she just spoke to the people and connected with them was something I could never do, but with time, they had grown less afraid of me and more accepting. They had begun coming to me instead of barely being able to look at me, and while they still treated me with caution, it wasn’t coldness I was treated with. They loved Katherine, though, and she loved to be there for the people. She loved to make them feel heard and cared for, and she made them smile and laugh. We often went into the city together, just walking among the people and making sure they saw us, and we took all the kids with us. The whole table was almost filled with them. Silver’s and Acan’s boys had been sad about their parents. We never truly told them what a part we played in it, but that their parents had died from the mob
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 94
-Katherine- Darius and I had travelled quite far with our prisoners. We knew exactly who to give them to, and now we stood in the middle of the night with a single torch, a few guards, and Silver and Acan in front of us, tied up and shivering like crazy. Their clothes and bodies were dirty after days of being in the dungeon. We waited until things calmed down a little before bringing them here, and now we were waiting. We had already begun helping the people get back on their feet and ordered the army home. Things would go back to normal, but we knew we had work in front of us. But first things first, we needed to pay a debt. "It’s been a while, prince," the Dark Ones’ leader said as he emerged from the forest. He seemed to be alone, but I had the feeling he wasn’t. His dark eyes went to me and seemed excited. "I finally meet her," he said. I smiled at him, and he smiled back, before his eyes went to the king and queen in front of us, tied up and gagged. "Oh, a present. I didn’t
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 93
-Katherine- There was no one Acan loved more than himself, and so I didn’t think he had taken Silver with him. He wouldn’t even think about his boys, only himself. I believed I knew where Silver had gone, and so I took some guards with me and went upstairs, locating her room. There stood two guards, blocking the door, but I had four with me, and when I told them to move, they took one look at the whole scene and stepped to the side, not wanting to get into a fight with me. I smiled, feeling good about it, and I stepped inside, hearing Silver’s voice. "Acan?" I saw her standing up from the bed, holding a cup of wine in her hand, and she had blood on her. I could see she had taken hits, and I believed the mob had gotten their hands on her, but then she had slipped away. She was waiting for her big hero, Acan, to come save her, but he wasn’t coming. There were only she and I here. She looked at me, scared, not understanding why I was standing there. "Katherine…" "Hello Silver." "W-
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 92
-Darius- I looked at my beautiful wife, who had gotten dressed in our colors as well. Her hair was up, and she wore a silver crown. She looked so amazing, all I wanted was to say screw the party and instead enjoy having her all to myself, but I knew tonight was special, and I couldn’t let myself get distracted, so I settled for watching her from afar, taking in the wonderful woman in front of me. Someone I was so lucky to have been granted. I had earned her love, while Acan had been given it and wasted it. I was proud of us both and how far we had come. No one could say we hadn’t fought to be together, and once Acan and Silver were gone, we could truly relax. We could enjoy our lives together and just be happy. Katherine noticed me in the mirror she stood in front of and smiled at me. We had been able to act much faster than we thought was possible. But that was how angry the people were. That was how desperate they were to get the king and queen removed and to let others take their
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 91
-Katherine- The next morning, I knew I had to do something I really didn’t want to do, but sometimes we just had to sacrifice a little of our dignity to get what we want. I knew Silver would be with her ladies, and so I went to find them in the room where they were drinking, eating, and laughing early in the morning. Once I entered, though, the room grew so quiet, and Silver was glaring at me as I neared them. I put on my fake smile and began walking closer and closer. They kept watching me like a predator would, but I didn’t pay any attention to that. I stopped in front of them and bowed my head a little to show a little respect, even though I had none for them. "Morning," I greeted. They didn’t answer me back, and I understood that. "Can we help you?" Silver spat. "Actually, I did want to ask you a question," I admitted, seeing her grow interested because I was now showing a little vulnerability. "Oh?" she asked, sipping her wine. "Well, Acan said I could throw that party, as
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 90
-Katherine- Darius and I retreated to the room later after spending some time with Acan. I was already in bed when he joined me, pulling me close and kissing me on top of the head. "I was a bit worried about being away from you today. I saw you went to the city. How did it go?" he asked. "Perfect." "Perfect?" he asked. "You have no idea how angry the people are, Darius. They want Acan gone. I can feel it. They just need an opening, an option, and I am trying to find one," I informed him. "Any ideas?" he asked. "No, you?" We both thought about it for a long time. I knew if I could create an opening for the people, a way inside to get to Acan and Silver, then they would do the rest. They would attack, and in the middle of that attack, we could strike. We could do what was necessary. It was all coming together, but we needed that small part, that moment that would be the perfect option to hurt them. When was that? When could we finally be free of Acan and Silver? Darius ran his fi
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 89
-Katherine- So many of the people were angry at Acan and Silver. I had taken guards with me before I went to the city, but I listened to complaints all day. I made sure they felt like they had someone they could come to to talk about their struggles. I listened to everything they had to say and began feeding them ideas about taking down Acan and Silver. I was never straightforward about it. I just left small breadcrumbs that I hoped would turn into more. I hoped they would follow my little trial and see the benefits of getting rid of Acan and Silver, and I did seem to awaken something in them. A need. A fire that glowed in their eyes and told me they were considering it. It felt so good to see, because it was like watching the dream house that Acan and Silver had built only for them to have to watch it crumble. It gave me a sick, satisfying feeling knowing their lives would be destroyed. It made me feel incredible to know I would be the cause of it as well. I would be the reason why
His Unbeloved Queen Chapter 88
-Darius- Acan and I continued to talk, and I noticed that the longer we talked and the more he drank, the more his guards were coming down. He was slowly letting me in again, and I tried to hide the wicked smile on my lips. I needed him to be less guarded with me. I needed him to allow me to enter his heart again, if he even had one, and to want me close. Only then could I turn things around and turn people against him. Eventually, though, he grew too tired and told me he was going to rest now but that we would be riding together tomorrow. I told him I couldn’t wait, even though the idea did not thrill me at all. I couldn’t think of anything worse, but there was no way around it. I finished my drink, then walked back to my room, finding my wife sleeping. I left it shortly just to check on my son, who was heavily guarded but also sleeping. I walked back to my own room, undressing and finally joining her in bed. She woke up a little, moving closer to me, and then fell right back to sle
