2024-10-29 19:42:56For over four hours I sat in the library reading books upon books. I hear noises coming from the hallway outside the library. The low chattering of male voices has me knowing that the meeting has come to an end and the Alphas are on their way back to their packs.
I stay in the library until I can't hear any more voices, then push the door open and walk out.
"Celeste," Someone called out to me. I turn around and there stands Eros Black in a black fitting suit.
"Mr Black" I answered back politely as he walks closer to me.
"How have you been?" He asked putting his right hand his pants pocket.
"I'm okay, yourself?"
"Good."
"I heard about the rogue attack, I am so sorry it happened to you"
"Oh no, you don't need to be. It wasn't your fault" I told him with a smile.
"It kind of is," Eros sai

People gasp when they see their king and stop what they are doing, they bow in respect as they should then continue with that they were doing. A host leads us out of main room and into a private room.Elijah pulls out a chair for me to seat and i do so, thanking him while he also sits opposite me."It's beautiful," I told the king looking around then turn to look at him only to see his eyes on me."It is" He muttered not breaking eye contact with me.I understood What he was saying. Elijah wasn't talking about the room, no, he was talking about me that I am beautiful. I pull my hair behind my ear and pick up the menu, hiding my big fat smile from the king as a waiter comes in with a wine and pours it into our glasses.Elijah chuckles and and I bring the menu down, only showing my eyes to see what he is doing. He picks up his menu and then a waitress comes in.

I groaned as I reached out to my phone ringing on the table. I clicked on the answer button without checking the callers ID."Hello?" I rasped, turning on my back and rubbing my eyes with my hand."You're in so much trouble young lady!" Moms angry voice greeted me.I sat up straight, taking my hair out of my face and mouth and scrunched my face up in confusion."What are you talking about?" I asked her, confused."Don't play dumb with me" She said."Mom, I don-" "You are all over the news," Mom added cutting me off."Shit" I cussed under my breath. I forgot that the pictures they took of I and Elijah will pop up on the werenews."Don't you dare cuss again" She muttered and I pictured her glaring at me."Sorry," i whispered softly.I could hear voices at the background and know

We've been driving for more than four hours and not one building in sight, everything we passed was just trees. I sighed for what seems to be the tenth time today. "You know, if you're bored you could just try and get some sleep and we'll be there in no time" Elijah suggested when he noticed my state. I looked at him and pout then sighed again "I slept for the past past three hours Elijah. When are we ever getting there?" I asked and he chuckled. "We're almost there" He answered and then points to a distance in the forest. I squirt my eyes to see what he was pointing at and then I saw it. Above the trees I could see smoke, probably from the chimney of their homes. My eyes brighten with excitement, knowing I would soon be out of this car. Within a few minutes, we pulled up at the coven. Men and women came out of their homes to see the invaders. Children were clutching onto their mothers skirt, peeking f

I woke up to an empty bed, I looked around but the King was no where to be seen. I sighed and went in the bathroom to get ready for the day. I put on a washed blue jean with a black long sleeve shirt and a white sneakers then left the room.I met Hilda and some other women In the living room chatting and laughing among themselves, I smiled at them and some responded with a hello or good morning while others ignored me like I wasn't there."Celeste, come!" Hilda called out to me in the dinning room which is joined with the living room. I walked over to her with a smile."Good morning" I said to her."Morning child," Hilda replied as she placed food on the table. I offered to help them, also placing foods on the table and making small talks with the coven members.After we were done, Hilda walks up to me and put her hand on my shoulder. "Do have a seat, dear" she said, motioning to

Groaning, I turned to my left but immediately held my head from the pain that pieced it like a thousand niddles."Fuck!" I groaned, closing my eyes tightly but it hurts. Everything hurts."Celeste?" A female voice called. I tried opening my eyes but as I did, I closed it from the glaring light of the yellow bulb hanging from the ceiling.I tried a few times before my eyesight adjusted to the light and surroundings.I was surrounded by three people, Hilda, Elijah and a woman with black hair who looks quite familiar."What happened?" I asked, looking at them as I saw the sorrow and relief on their faces.They all looked at each other, contemplating if they should answer or not."You died, Celeste" Hilda said, her eyes shinning with pity."Wh-what?" I chocked out, my mouth running dry and my heart stopped. Literally. I tried sitting up but wa

The palace comes in view and a bridge awaits, the light brown stone that goes over the river, one current and filled with fishes. I looked down to the crystal clear water as we crossed. I have never been this happy to be back on the palace ground.The car parked directly at the castle gate and we both came out. We walked into the palace with two maids behind us, holding our bags. Elijah stopped and looked at me."I have a meeting and it would take me a couple of hours before it's over" He muttered, pointing with his thumb finger behind him at the large door. With my heightened sense, I listened closely and I could hear the voices of people, Alphas chatting among themselves behind the closed door."Okay," I said and Elijah quickly swooped in for a quick kiss. I smiled at him then bit my lips gently as he gave me a smirk."See you soon" He mumbled softly, "Also, you should hide the mark" Elijah added a

I curled up on my bed, watching as the rain rolled down the window. I was numb, just staring. I had just witnessed my mates' death, the image of his headless body as it hits the floor and his dead eyes staring at me. A knock brought me out of my thoughts and sluggishly, I got up to open it."Good evening Lady Celeste, the King has sent me to escort you to his chamber" A guard said.Why the hell would I need to be escorted to a room just a few feets away from mine? Nevertheless, I followed the guard in my pajamas as he led me to his room.I stood outside Elijah's chamber and the guard bowed before leaving me standing there. I took in a deep breath before pushing the door open. Elijah was seated on his bed, shirtless might I add. A glass of wine in hand as he watched me come closer to him."Sit'" he said and I did. I sat next to him on his bed.He offered me a glass of wine which I took relu

I woke up in the middle of the night to find the bed empty, it's been three days since Elijah and I have been mating and stayed in his room through out knowing if I ever leave his chamber, I would have males on my tail all trying to fight and mate with me.I got up from the bed and went to the toilet to take a leak before returning to the comfortable bed. I tost and turned, trying to go back to sleep but I couldn't. Looking at the ceiling, I sighed and turned the lamp on.I sat on the bed for a while, contemplating if I should go out and search for the King.I have only two days remaining for my heat to be over, my mating scent wouldn't be that strong... Right?Putting on my pajamas, I opened the door and hurriedly walk downnthe hall.I walk around, trying to locate him so we would go back to sleep together."You have to Make a choice now!" A familiar voice whisper-yelled

"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

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.
