"Ah, his Majesty has finally decided to join us" Derrick said jeeringly with a dramatic bow.
Elijah growled with some of his soldiers as they stood at him back.
"Tell them to back off" Derrick growled at Elijah's men while I struggle against the hold that Cedric had on me.
Elijah glance at everyone in the room before his eyes zoomed in on the hand of Derrick that was wrapped around our sons neck.
"Leave" Elijah muttered lowly. The guards looked at themselves unsure if he meant it. "Now!" He growls at them, clenching and unclenching his fist and with hesitation, they left.
Now it was just Elijah, Me, Cedric, Mlika and Derrick. The rogue King sent Josephine and her son out, I'm sure he did it so she would find Elijah and not long after she left, Elijah came.
"What do you want Derrick" Elijah growled, his eyes kept on zooming on our crying son. Micah already has marks on his arms and neck from where Derrick held him.
"What do I want?" De
Five Months Later."What are you doing here all alone" My husband said wrapping his strong arms around my waist and placing a kissing my mark."Just thinking" I muttered leaning my head to the side granting him access as his lips connected with my jaw.It's been a whole five months after the war and we've been trying to get things back to normal.I had a mental breakdown for three months after the whole thing. Almost losing my son, losing my mother and losing my pregnancy makes me tense up thinking that someone was going to attack us.After my son was saved and came back to life, Hilda saw her daughter laying at the bottom of the stairs with a dagger sticking out of her heart. In range she almost attacked us if not for some guards who stopped her. I have no idea what happened to her and when ever I asked Elijah, he would brush it off until I finally dropped the matter.
I am sitting in the library with my bestfriend, Anna, and a few of our Course-mates as we reverse on some topics for the last exam of the semester. I was silent, not altering a word for my mind was occupied with the dream I had last night-I wouldn't exactly call it a dream, more like a memory mocking me. The words that broke my heart into a million pecies still fresh and replaying itself like a broken record in my head."You're a psycho Celeste, i can't be mated to you. You're fat and disgusting. You are not fit for a luna.""Andrew, wh-what are you sa-saying?" I asked my mate, my voice craking and tears streaming from my eyes. I know what was to come, he was going to reject me. The disgust and hatred he held for me clearly showing in his eyes."I, Andrew Walter, soon to be alpha of crestfall pack reject you Celeste Sampson as my mate and future luna to the crestfal
After three and a half hours I arrived at Kansas. I texted mom that I was already in the state before boarding a Taxi to Crestfall privately owned land which is farther away from the city and the human eyes. The ride took about fourty minutes before we arrived at a small apartment where a few patrol guards stay when guest are coming into the pack land.I came out of the car with my luggage and thanked the driver for the ride. I walked closer to the apartment but stayed a few feet from it already knowing that they would be out soon since they could sense my arrival. I looked at my chest to see a red dot there and rolled my eyes with a scoff. What harm can an average Lycan do to one of the biggest pack in USA?The door opened revealing Beta Ivan and a two other guards."Beta" I said in greeting with a flat tone"Celeste" he replied with a smirk playing on his lips as he came down the
It is now seven pm and I am doing my make-up. I put on a little amount of foundation on my face followed by some powder. I smoke out my eye and give it a winged line. I add some nude lipstick and a light blush on my cheeks. I do my hair in a formal messy braided updo. After doing my make up and hair, I picked up the bag that had my dress and slide it on I then pair it with the golden heels.I stand at the mirror hanging on my closet door and couldn't help but agree with what Josephine said at the mall today, I do look like a queen. I take my black purse laying on my bed and with my head high I go downstairs to me the rest of my family.Mom was the first to see me as I entered the living room. "You look beautiful darling" she says and everyone turns around to look at me."Thanks, mom" I mumbled suddenly shy with all eyes looking at me.Everyone tells me how beautiful I look and I thanked them and also tell
Elijah places his big hand on the small of my back then nod the the guards. The door opens and we walk in, everyone stops what they are doing and I freeze from all the stares. Elijah nodges me forward with him and we walk. Everyone parts way for us like the red sea, bowing down for their king in the process. You could tell that they were hesitant to bow because I am with him. Why would Alphas of grate packs bow to me, a nobody?I see some glaring at me while others are surprise to see their King. There are a few mummers going around but I can hear them."It's him!""Who's she?""He's hot"We walk around as Elijah greets the Alphas, some alphas went straight into business mode, asking for permission to expand their pack land and other business matters which I had no interest in. I still can't believe that the king wants me. What would this become of me? I knew fro
"Where are we going?" I asked Elijah as he takes a hold of my hand, leading me through the park. He said nothing and I roll my eyes but keep shut but after a few minutes I decide to ask him one more question. "How did you get here? And how did you know where I'd be?""I'm the king darling, I can find you whenever I want," Elijah comments, pushing his brow locks from his face. "And were going to the palace""What?!" I wispher-yelled into the dark night."I will not repeat myself" he mumbled not sparing me a glance.I scoff but let him drag Me with him. I spot a black Lamborghini that looks brand new at the road side. He opens the door for me and I get in while he also hopes in the driver's seat, turning on the car right away speeding out as he drives like a mad man.I hold on the seatbelt for dear life and my eyes open as he continues speeding around the fairly traffic."Fo
I wake up with the lights shinning on my face. I walk to the window and look out to the beautiful view out side my window. There is a nock on my door and I walk to it and open it. There, stands a maid with her head bowed."Good morning Lady Celeste, the king has requested you join him for breakfast in the dinning room" the female said. Before I can answers she hurryliy walk away and I shrug. I close the door and go into the bathroom taking a quick shower, I take out a new toothbrush from its case and brush my teeth with it. I decide to put on the clothes I wore since there is no extra.Walking through the beautiful walls of the palace, I ask a guard the way to the dinning room and he show me the way which I thank him for. The King seated at the head of the table, looks up as I enter the room with a smile."Celeste," he said my name in a whisper. "Please sit and have breakfast with me."I nod and sit next t
"Elijah, answer my question, Do you know him?" I asked him for the sixth time which he ignores.I stop walking and fold my hands together and glared at him. He looks back at me confused and when he sees my expression, he looks up at the sky and sighs."Yes, yes I know who he is""And who is he?" I asked again now walking beside him."He is the son of the rogue King" I gasped at this, "No way.""But I need to confirm if it's true" The king said, narrowing his eyes at the people we pass."Why do I need to come back to the palace with you?" I asked him another question."You're not safe here. If Derrick really is out, he's going to come back for you again and I'm sure you guys won't be having a chat this time." I shivered from his words and gulp, Who knows what he might do to me.We got to the palace and walk

I rushed into the room and knelt down beside the cold body of my mother. I placed my index abd middle finger on her neck, trying to see if there was a pulse but came up with none. I sniffle, my eyes blurry with unshard tears but as I blinked they fell running down my cheeks and falling on my mothers hair.Gently, I removed her head from my lap and lay it on the floor. I searched the room in case my son was hiding somewhere but came up with nothing.My heart beat excitedly with the thoughts that they might have escaped through the portal but when I faced the dark mirror, I put my hand on the glass and gasped when it went through it.They never escaped, if they did the portal would have closed back and a that would be left will be a solid glass.Glancing at mom on last time I left the room in search of my son. Elijah was right. If I had know I would not have left them alone.I try not to dwe
"Be safe. Take Micah and hide in the study. I'll try and find out what's happening" My husband, the king mumbled before quickly kissing me on the cheeks and leaving the room. I quickly put on my clothes and rush to my sons room to see him awake and crying in his crib. I picked him up and pat him on the back and soon he stopped crying. As I walk down the hall, I saw the massive green light that shinned and when I looked at it closely, it was being hit by very powerful balls. I could tell that it was the work of magic for no human weapon could do such a thing. And this... This could expose us. Shaking my head and continuing with the task at hand, I took out the keys from my pocket that Elijah gave me before departing from me, I pushed it into the keyhole unlocking the door and then locking both I and Micah in the room. I placed him on the wooden floor and also the bag I took from his ro
Two Years Later"Don't run off to far Micah!" I yelled as my two year old son ran around the garden with his cousin Jordan.I am currently having brunch with Josephine and mom in the garden while our sons played together. We laughed as they both fell to the ground giggling before getting up."Beautiful isn't it?" Josephine asked and I nodded taking a bite out of my omlet. "It is" I replied.Never in my life would I have imagined to be in this position. If someone had told me three years ago that I would be married to the King and have a child with him, I would have have laughed and call them crazy.We all talked for a while about how the pack back home is doing. Josephine tells me that they plan on extending the land and if they do, it would be the third largest pack in the world."Well guess what" I said to them smiling with glee and w
It felt like a dream come true. It is a dream come true. My makeup was done to perfection by the make up artist and my hair a Low Bun With Mini Bouffant and Side Sweep. I felt like a princess who was being dolled up to met her prince charming at the bottom of the stairs.I was finally getting married to the man I love, everything was falling in place. I got up from my seat when the hairstylist was done with my hair and got into the beautiful white diamond gown. I ran my fingers along the lacy material and it sparkled under my touch."Truly amazing" The hairstylist said putting her combs and brush inside her bag. I got compliments from the people around me and I either answered them with a smile or a thank you.It was finally time, my parents walked me to the large wooden door that was closed and mom kissed me on the cheek telling me how beautiful I looked before leaving Dad and I there. We stood there a minute and I used t
Was I suppose to run into him arm? Or maybe drop the towel? Fuck, the latter was unnecessary but it did come to my mind. We both stood there just staring at each other, Elijah, gasping with no words coming out of his mouth while I, holding my towel tight. "You're here" He finally breathed, leaving the door nob and moving towards me, and within a second, he scoops me in arms. My hands was still holding the towel making the hug look kinda weird but that was OK by me. I was happy to be in his arms-right now I felt safe, I felt at home. "You're really here" he mumbled into my hair and I removed the hold I had on the towel and wrapped them around his waist. "I missed you" I said to him and he pulls me closer to him, tightening his hold around my waist but I do not mind, it makes me feel all the more better, wanted. We pulled away after a minute or two, looking into each othe
I placed the little things I brought with me in the boot of the car, closing it and then turning to mom who stood beside me. It took me right days to finally come to a decision that I wanted to be with Elijah."Are you sure about this?" Mom asked and I nodded, offering her a smile. "Yes mom" I answered giving her a hug and inhaling her scent.Dad was standing at the porch watching the interaction between his family. I sighed when I saw the sad look on his face and decided to go up to him. We haven't spoken to each other since the study room incident that occurred eight days ago.He looked surprised that I was coming up to him and composed himself. "Dad," I said giving him a small smile."Look Celeste, I'm sorry for everything" he mumbled looking down. I placed my hand on his shoulder and he looked at me while I offered him a smile."I know," I whispered and he smiled. "But you need to tell
Its being a few days after that incident and I could not sleep every single night for I kept on seeing Natasha's lifeless face.I couldn't sleep this night too, I kept toasting and turning on my bed and eventually I decided to go for a run in the woods to burn up some fuel. Opening the door to my room, I cringe when it made a noise but continued my journey outside the house.I released a sigh when I was finally outside and jogged barefoot to the woods. The sky was dark and the moon hid behind the clouds. For others it might not be safe for them to be walking alone in the woods but I felt free, free from my problems.I found a perfect spot behind a large tree to shift into and I quickly strip from my clothes. Bending on all fours, I closed my eyes and imagined my dark wolf.I growled as my body transformed, and I slouched like an animal. My bones snapped, lengthened, and popped back into place.
