Betty sat in her chair, staring outside the window into the garden where flowers were in full bloom, the only thing she enjoyed these days, watching the flowers. It's been a week since Betty has left the hospital and all this while she has not left her bedroom, she just stayed inside avoiding any sort of human contact, especially that of Develin who has tried lots of times to come close to her but had failed miserably. But still everyday he tried again and again, In the morning, bringing her breakfast and in the evening he sat down with her having dinner in her room while he made sure that the maids gave her lunch during midday when he was out. He tried hard, but still Betty just looked at him with an emotionless face, a cold expression he had never seen before and he so desperately wanted to change back into that smile of hers that he has grown to like very much, the smile he has seen at moments she hadn't noticed….Today he wanted to try a new approach. He wanted to open up about
It was the day of Mayor Develin’s and Betty's wedding and it was the talk of the town!The grand town hall was beautifully decorated and people slowly gathered outside in front of it.Only in the fantasy realm the atmosphere was gloomy!King Lionel was enraged that his arch enemy would marry HIS mate today and there was nothing he could do about it without avoiding a bloodbath!He felt like a failure and sat in the game room of Grissom’s mansion while Ava was making honey flavored cookies in the kitchen.“We can go there, and object to the marriage?” Grissom asked while he looked at his sulking friend.“And then what exactly, Griss? He will probably kidnap some more of ours or kill them on the spot, or even worse, kill Betty on the spot! No! I will not risk her or anybody else's safety for that matter! I'll just stay here and hopefully we can come up with a new, better plan to kidnap her back without him knowing and without bloodshed!” Lionel replied while staring at the festivities th
Develin curls and uncurls his left fist while with his other hand he holds Betty possessively at her waist, pressing her close to his body, as he gazes at her family and Lionel. "Silly King! he thinks he can still have hid mate back, well he's too late! tonight I will mark her as MINE and soon I will put cubs in her!!" Brutus snickered in Develins mind while he watched as Lionel grew more angrier and frustrated by the minute! "What?! say that again, Brutus??" he replied his still grinning wolf in his mind."Which part old man? that I will mark her tonight or that the lion will not get her back?" Brutus replied him. "No, no, you crazy wolf!....you said that HE will not get his MATE back.....so it was his baby then?!" Develin whispered the last part in shock. "Yes, yes old man it was, but good ridens I would say! now our mate can have OUR cubs! and not that filth!" Brutus menaced coldly. "I agree that she can have ours yes but never ever tell her the rest because she would hate us
Everybody had finished eating and the DJ had asked the couple to the dancefloor for their first dance as husband and wife. Under a huge applause, Devlin walked hand in hand with Betty towards the centre of the ballroom and waited for the lights to dim and the music to start. As the first tunes of a romantic song started, Develin grabbed Betty by the waist with eagerness and started to move slowly on the rhythm. Brutus was wagging his big tail as he saw his mate closing her eyes and leaning against Develin's chest. He felt at peace! Slowly the world started to fade away and it was only Betty and him dancing, enjoying each other's soft touches and light caresses with closed eyes as they breathed in each other's scent. Betty sighed contently, feeling more relaxed than she had ever felt in this man's presence. She started to believe that he was indeed changing for her making her smile softly. Suddenly she felt something hard probing around the area of her thighs and her eyes g
The only that was heard in the room were the beeping sounds of the machine that were attached to Develin's body and the shuffling sound of Betty's footsteps, who was padding up and down the room while clutching her shirt with clenched fists.Slowly Develin opened his eyes and tried to get up but a wave of dizziness prevented him from doing so while he heard beeping sounds of some kind loudly drifting in and out of his ears. "Doc! He's awake!" He suddenly heard Betty's voice and he opened his eyes again only to look straight into Betty's eyes who were red and puffy. "Thank Goddess, you're not dead!" She muttered while snuggling close to his chest. "Death? No little one, I'm not planning on dying yet so, you are stuck with me, even if you don't want to!" He husked while he brought her even closer to his heart and nuzzled her mark on her shoulder, making his Beast purr in happiness."Mayor Develin? Hi, I am sorry to interrupt your uhm....well with your new wife and all but we need to
Outside the sun was shining while a maid helped Betty packing upstairs while Develin was still busy in his office. “Mrs. Lacroix, is this all you want to take with you for your honeymoon or is there more I need to pack for you?” The maid asked Betty whose mind was not with the packing at the moment….“Oh….sorry Rose no thank you! You already helped me enough so you can go do your other work” Betty replied with a blush, feeling slightly stupid. “Oh okay, alright then, if you still need me later for something, you can call for me” Rose replied and then walked out of the bedroom suit and closed the door behind her. Meanwhile Betty removed the suitcases from the bed and sat down on the edge while thinking. Since she and Develin had visited Malcolm, they hadn't talked about what Malcom had told them and she didn't like it one bit! It was about his health and that is Brutus as well afcourse who has been awfully quiet ever since!“Hey, what are you thinking so deeply about?” Develin whis
“Love, I'm going to get some more honey, I'll be back in an hour or so, but if you need anything, I'm just a mind link away ok!” Grissom said, before kissing Ava's belly and forehead lovingly. ‘’Yes yes, don't make a fuss old bear! i am more than capable to survive an hour without you!’’ Ava chuckled. ‘’I know love but you know why right? it's because i love the moon goddess and back!’’ he husked. ‘’I know, papa bear, but sometimes it's all a bit much you know’’ Ava replied slightly blushing.‘’Ok, well i'll see you soon love, take care my precious!’’ Grissom says while his eyes have already turned golden, letting Bruno take over for the hunt. After she watches Bruno run happily into the bushes, from their balcony, Ava goes back inside and starts some preparations for lunchtime.All the while Bruno runs through the thick fields of high grass towards his fire spot where the beehives are situated, already salivating at the thought of bringing home a full honeycomb for lunch!After
Betty sat on the beach, close to the waterline thinking about the heavy conversation she and Develin had some hours ago.It was the hardest conversation they had up till now if she was honest and she did not like what he had told her, to be precise she was utterly gobsmacked by the whole thing that she had told him that she wanted to be alone for a while, that's why she has ended up here, on the beach, watching the waves coming and going, calming her nerves.It turns out that a long time ago he had an affair with the queen from which Lionel was born, his son! And the queen was now kind of blackmailing him with it!!A huge secret he had hidden from her up till now! And that made her think if there were more secrets that he was keeping from her…..It made her feel vulnerable, doubting her choice all over again! Even though he had told her that this was the whole truth and that there were no more secrets but how could she be sure? Her heart was already damaged enough times! Could she b
