~Hazel~

It’s been days after the incident with Asher at the bakery and I’ve tried my very best to let go of everything.

The insults and pain tried to make it harder to let go but I focused my mind on what’s more important, and that’s my life here, my best friend and the safety of my son.

That’s all there should be as I prepare to start business for the day. I rarely had customers as most of them only come in for coffee. I only get busy when it’s a little lycan’s birthday and I’ll have to bake cakes and all the fun things that they love.

I haven’t spoken or seen Tristan since his meeting with Asher on my turf and he hasn’t come in using the excuse of coffee and doughnuts as he always does when I don’t show up and wants to see me. He’s definitely been talking to Rose, her eyes gave her away that she’s keeping something.

It’s either he had her promise to not tell me or she feels it’s better I don’t worry about it.

    ~Hazel~ “What’s going on?” I asked, stopping Jason who was walking in a hurry. It wasn’t any news that Jason assisted Tristan in almost all the matters concerning their kingdom. Everyone seemed so busy as they tried to put one and two together, making everywhere stand out. “The blood moon pack will be coming very soon.” He said quickly before moving past me. “Wait, what do you mean coming over?!” I asked expecting no answer in return as Jason was already out of sight. Everyone knew Jason was a man of few words and rarely spoke unless when necessary. He always looked lethal and fierce unlike Marcus who walked around with a smile. I calmed my nerves down as I’ve gotten used to being around lycans with their huge physique always towering over me. I must have heard wrongly, I reasoned within myself. Why would they be coming here? The wolves and lycans never really conversed or got together at any time but recently they’ve been trying to build some sort of relationshi

    ~Hazel~ With Marcus all over the place and towering over me with every change he got, I couldn’t be any faster but thank the goddess I was able to finish in time before Tristan came back in. “I’m so sorry to disturb you on such short notice” he pleaded as he stepped into the kitchen. “It’s fine. I couldn’t have denied you.” I uttered, forcing a smile before letting it freely have its way when I realised how the blood moon alpha would be elated after having deserts. With a huge smile on my face, I let it stay knowing fully well that it was worth it if my plans worked out well. “They look so colourful and yummy, if I could just pop one inside my mouth.” He added looking over the doughnuts arranged like a fountain on each palette. “Too bad you can’t eat them” Marcus mocked with a smirk. Ignoring him after a once over, Tristan faces me now “it’s late Hazel, and I already called Rose to watch over Jaden for the night.” He murmured, putting his hands behind his hea

    ~Hazel~ With everyone’s eyes glued on me, I pretend they aren’t staring and pick up my spoon and start eating. You look very pretty in that dress, Hazel. Now I know why he sent a dozen pictures to pick from.” He moved closer whispering to me with a smile and I pushed him away slightly. Marcus was sitting just after me then two more of Tristan’s enforcers before Asher’s men. “Don’t disturb her Marcus!” Tristan warned, raising his head a little to look me up as he did nothing to correct his brother. We all ate in dead silence as I could feel him glaring at me, I refused to look anywhere else pretending like he’s not there. I only stop to look up when Marcus has something whispered in my ear or Tristan asking me if I needed anything or how the food tasted. “The food wasn’t so bad” his voice resounded as he ordered our faces up to him. I could feel his aura filling up the room, it’s either he’s just being an alpha or he’s pissed. “Did your queen make it?” He asked

    “Stop! You are hurting me” I cried out wincing in pain as his hands on my neck tightened. “What did you plan on doing to me? You think I wouldn’t smell it?” He asked in a fit of rage as he pressed his body against me, with his head just above mine as he stared into my eyes with fury. “What do you mean?” I asked, as his hands tightened around my neck making me scared as my face turned blue as I kept on dragging his hands until he finally released them a little. “You know exactly what I mean” he growled, still holding me in place as he used his other free hand to push at my waist, leaving his firm and huge hands there causing me to shiver a little. “Get off me!” I spitted sourly. Was he angry or what? Why are his hands all over me? “You think I wouldn’t smell it? Of course I know with you here that I’ll have to watch my back to be safe” he retorted with an all knowing snort. “I didn’t do anything so leave me alone!” I protested trying to free myself from his grip

    ~Hazel~ After he stormed out, I waited for a while trying to process everything. I couldn’t bring myself to tell Tristan anything, I just want to pretend like Asher never happened and I hope it remains like that. I definitely don’t want him showing up here. Maybe if I can talk to Tristan about whatever deal they have together and why he shouldn’t proceed, then maybe it’ll be cut off. Thinking of a story to come up with wouldn’t really be hard as wolves and lycans never interacted before. I didn’t even have an idea of their existence four years ago, so it shouldn’t be that hard right? Finally walking out of the bathroom and the dark tiny corridor which terrified the hell out of me. “So That monster threatened me! If he thinks I’m going to cower in my tears then he’s taught wrongly” I thought within myself as I walked back to the living room planning just how to get back to Asher. I shouldn’t be bothered, it’s not like I care about being queen anyways but I need to prot

    ~Asher~ Immediately we stepped foot on their turf and alighted from the car, I could smell her wolf. I know she was in his kingdom but I didn’t expect her to be allowed into their head house. Seeing her last at the bakery I suspected she stayed close by, looking from what she had on and how the whole shop was drained and danced around with her wolf scent. No one ever stops an alpha from doing what he wants but Tristan, understanding that fact, still pulled what he did trying to protect a wolf in his pack. A wolf he was in love with. I could see the longing in his eyes every time he spoke to her or when she’s close. He wants her but too bad she’s not up for giving. I’m still her alpha no matter what she says, she did the rejecting not me and I’ll consider it not valid. She’s the reason I’m back, the proposal looked too good to be true and I always followed my instincts. My instincts were telling me to turn back and not sign the deal but I need to see her. I know she’

    ~Asher~ It’s been over a week now since we signed the deal and we were supposed to meet on neutral grounds to discuss the proposal. One of the reasons I’m greatly feared and respected is how everyone In my pack is secured. I run a 24/7 sure security and outsiders aren’t allowed into the pack. I’ll be meeting Tristan a few stops outside my pack borders as he isn't allowed in yet. On getting there, I walked towards the small shed where we agreed to meet. “Asher '' he called out as he stood with his right hand man. It was supposed to be a closed meeting with just us but there was no way you could go anywhere without your second in command as we both know we don’t fully trust each other. “Tristan” I replied with a nod as I walked towards where they were standing with Ross. “Are you sure about this?” Ross whispered to me, maintaining his stance as he kept his eyes on both Tristan and Jason. I know just how much he distrusts them, I do too but I believe he has an idea why

    ~Hazel~ It's been a week and some days since I last saw Tristan, with his suggestions dangling in my head. This week has been my best week since all these issues started arising, and it started with Asher. I’m always meant to worry when I know he can just walk in anytime just to taunt me. But if I can agree to act as Tristan’s queen he wouldn’t be able to overstep as he should be bound to respect another’s supposed queen right? These were the times I wished to shift, to find solace with my wolf, Kyra. I stopped shifting frequently after I found a home with the lycans. I wanted nothing to remind me of Asher as I had lots of memories of my wolf running with him and cuddling a lot of times. Moving with a small bag I walk along the side away from the bakery and my house, heading towards the tall trees. I walk a long distance wanting to be away from prying eyes. This was the only time I had now as it was still school hours. I hated to turn in front of others and loath

    ~Jaden~ We're sprawled out on the lush, dewy grass, the cool blades tickling my skin. Lily's back is against my chest, her hands on mine, which are relaxed on her lap. The night sky is a canvas of bright, vivid twinkling stars that are reflecting on the lake, and I feel a sense of wonder wash over me.I nuzzle my face into the curve of Lily's neck, inhaling the sweet scent of her skin. I feel a surge of excitement and happiness, and I smile, unable to contain my emotions."Molly," Lily says suddenly, her voice barely above a whisper.I sigh heavily, feeling a sting of guilt. "She lied to both of us," I mutter. "That bitch."Lily giggles. "Oh no, she was actually telling the truth to me," she says, her voice filled with amusement. "Well, except for the part about the lake, but yeah... She said good things about you. And she told me that you love me very much."I'm speechless, but then I laugh and plant a soft kiss at the base of Lily's neck. She shudders, breathing heavily agains

    ~Lily~ The twilight sky is a mixture of pinks and purples, the calm lake reflecting its serene beauty like a mirror. I sit on the bench, my heart racing with excitement and anticipation, but also a hint of anxiousness, like a butterfly fluttering in my chest.To be honest, Molly really placed me on the right track because I have almost forgotten the good moments Jaden and I have had together. I actually... want him. And I am very capable of giving him a second chance because of that.I pluck nervously at the hem of my dress, my fingers twitching with restless energy. Suddenly, I can hear footsteps, and now so accurately by the scent, I can tell it's not Jaden."Hey," Nova says, coming to stand in front of me with a smile on his face.He settles beside me, his weight causing the bench to creak softly. And lets out a deep, nervous sigh that draws my full attention to him."What are you doing here?""You..." He looks at me. "I'm here for you.""Oh!" I exclaim, shocked by his admission.

    ~Jaden~ I pace back and forth across my room, my footsteps echoing off the walls as anxiety gnaws at my insides. I stare at my hands, which are shaking like leaves, and jam them into my pockets, as if trying to physically restrain them."Damnit!" I let out a deep, heavy sigh, feeling the weight of my worry and impatience settling in.It's been a long while since I've felt this anxious. And I'm not just anxious about my upcoming coronation – I'm anxious because of Lily.But...There's no doubt in my mind that she'll listen to Molly; she's her friend, after all. But what if Molly can't convince her?I try to convince myself that everything will work out, but my heart is racing like a runaway train, my breath coming in short, sharp gasps."Gosh, Jaden, calm down," I whisper a stern warning to myself, my voice barely audible over the sound of my own ragged breathing and clamping my hand over my racing heart.Suddenly, there's a light and careful knock on the door, and I feel my heart ski

    ~Molly~ As I walk through the corridor, the sound of laughter and chatter carries from the main sitting room, a stark contrast to my own grouchy mood. I'm surrounded by people who seem to have found their silver lining, and it's almost ridiculous how optimistic they are.Meanwhile, I'm just trying to make it through the day, fueled by my desire for a satisfying meal and a long nap.The servants are a whirlwind of activity, racing from one place to another as they prepare the castle for Jaden's coronation. To be honest, it's all anyone can talk about, and as I enter the sitting room, I'm greeted by the sight of Tyler and Cameron inspecting Jaden's crown, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation.Approaching them, I plaster a bright, artificial smile on my face. "Hello," I wave at them, but they look at me like I'm an alien.Tyler's eyes narrow, his brow furrowed in a grim expression, as he mutters, "If you're looking for Jaden, he's at the garden with Kade." I sense a hin

    ~Lily~ I didn’t want for any arms to come grab like my heart was wanting right now. It was like my heart and head were wanting two different things and I’ll have to starve one. “I fully understand your standpoint and why you might want to reject him and sincerely I’ll ask you to do just that.” Molly uttered, turning me to face her as she had her hands on my shoulders, forcing me to face her. “You don’t think I should listen to him right?” It was different from when I was outside, shouting at the top of my lungs, screaming hard out all my pains. Now I was a lot calmer, the reality becoming so real that he was my mate and somehow I wasn’t so scared of it now that he wasn’t in front of me. It was like my heart already accepted it but my head was still trying to be very logical so we wouldn’t let the mate thing make me give in so quickly. “No, I don't think so. You have to protect yourself Lee.” Her eyes didn’t waver and she moved to hold my hands in h

    ~Lily~ I followed the scent wherever it went, as each step I took led me straight outside. I loved it and if it was some cologne or a soap thing then I’ll gladly ask for the bake so I could use it also. My nose carried me a few more steps outside as the scent was becoming stronger. It was like some hard drug and I could feel Raya drown in it and only her mumblings could be heard. We covered a few more steps and he was standing there, with a smile on his face and a bouquet in his hand. “Mate!” Raya screamed out loud in my head that I stood frozen again to the ground, the second tint today. The scent was intoxicating but I remained rooted to where I was. I just didn’t know what to do as Raya kept on chanting mate! Mate! And I wouldn’t lie I vent like running into his arms but I held myself back. I stayed there, refusing to take one more step as his eyes glowed and they looked so attractive that I wanted to have a close look. Like I could read up the

    ~Lily~ “Hey Molly, open up!” I banged for the third time on her door, trying to get her to talk to me. “Come on Molly! I heard what happened and I don’t think you should be Inside all alone.” I tried my luck again and the same response I got for all the times I knocked was the same answer I got. I continued banging and saying everything I could but they were all to no avail as she didn’t open up. It was even more shocking and surprising that everyone else in this wing obviously did hear me banging so hard but they didn’t even bulge or think to check on where the loud banging sounds were coming from. It wasn’t a futile effort as I didn’t get a response or even heard a sound from her room. Thoughts on if she was even there crossed my mind but there was actually nowhere else she could actually be. I decided to finally take my life and hating to go back upstairs I just went anywhere my legs could take me. It was still very much bright and it

    ~Lily~ The sudden tapping at the door came not so quickly. I went back up as Tyler suggested I should, and I waited for cam to come like he said he would pass on the information. It definitely took him long enough.. “Hey lollipop” he broke into my thoughts again, this time it felt more like he asked for permission first because I could wait for a while, like he was waiting for a response to give him a go ahead. My tongue went bland as he was just right there, like he was standing in my head and also like he took a chair to sit with the way he sounded so comfortable. “You're not going to talk? Are you not happy to see me? Or rather happy to hear my voice? He spoke softly again, ringing like rhythm in my ear just like when he mindlinked me immediately he got back. I wasn’t trying to waste time or anything, I was busy taking in every single detail of how he sounded so different this time around. Honestly it really didn’t feel like an invasion be

    ~Jaden~ “Have you seen her yet?” It was the third time I was asking Kade through the mindlink. I wanted to see her after all those hours without having to see her. “She’s fine, I learnt that she has been in her room since yesterday.” Kade responded, pretty much doing his best to cover up the tiredness in his voice. I know I made them come all the way back without stopping to rest after the h*ll of a suprise battle we gave them. I was more glad we didn’t lose anyone so my surprise party could go as planned as I wanted. “She wasn’t bored right?” A lot of questions still needed to be asked as I hadn’t set my eyes on her yet. “If she was then we’ll have to question Molly, won’t we? And talking about her, how’s it going there?” He asked, his voice turning to that of seriousness, definitely interested in whatever I had to say next concerning this issue. “The court session is about to start and her parents are going to be charged after they question her.
