Red POVI smiled, limping to the dining room. It was the next day, and I felt much better. Aurora couldn’t heal me, as she was a bit weak herself. The silver knives weakened her, so we are both healing. I have a few cuts in my body, and they are taking their precious time to heal, but I don’t mind; what I mind is my knee. Priscilla put a cast on my leg because I can’t walk, and it’s annoying.“My lady, I already told his majesty that you won’t make it to the dining room; please let’s go back to the room,” Priscilla said, running after me. I smiled. I have been looking forward to this morning since he left my room, and I am not missing it for anything, not even for my knee.“I’m fine, Priscilla; I’ll see you later,” I said, not looking back at all. She sighed, mumbling, and the guards opened the doors for me. I smiled widely, limping towards them.“Good morning!” I yelled, smiling widely. They turned to me, looking at me like I was crazy.“What a beautiful morning, isn’t it your majest
Red POVIt’s been 3 days, and I have been in my room but haven’t stepped out once. I have been rethinking all the nonsense I did, and let’s just say I am ashamed of myself. I let myself lose control of my actions and acted like a child in a candy shop. I wanted to forever die in my room, but today his majesty asked for me, so I breathed out, standing in front of his study. I knocked on it softly.“Come in,” he said. My body shook hearing his voice, but before I got too excited, I tuned it down, breathing in. I opened the door and entered.“Good morning, your majesty,” I greeted as he sat behind his desk.“Seat,” he said. I nodded my head and took my seat in the chair.“I hope you’ve recovered fine,” he said. I looked away from his face.“Yes, your majesty,” I answered politely.“Good, we start our mission today. We are taking a trip to the academy; is there any question you would like to ask before we start our trip?” he asked. I thought about it.“Yes, your majesty,” I said.“Okay, a
Red POVI looked around the academy. I have never been here during the day, and it’s actually beautiful. Beautiful buildings, rogues walking everywhere, all smiles. I looked at them; they all seemed so happy but attacked innocent packs, killing every single one of them. Don’t they feel pity? They were all rescued too, after their packs were raided. Or were they forced to do it to those innocent packs? I definitely didn’t think of all this; when I got that list, I swung into action and killed everyone whose name was on the list. I am not even done, but I don’t think I want to continue; it would only land me in more trouble.“Your majesty,” a warrior said, coming to us.“Rodney,” he said, acknowledging him.“I’m happy you are here; it’s been a long time,” he said, and they shared a hug. I looked at them. Is he perhaps the leader of this place, or are they just close?“Felix,” he said, hugging him, and I watched them embrace with smiles on their faces.“Lady Yasmine, beautiful as ever,”
Red POVI looked away, brushing my hair. I felt like crying; standing here made my chest hurt. I am in love with a man who would never love me back. I shouldn’t have come to this place; it was a bad idea.“Are you okay?” he asked. I sighed.“Why did you bring me here, your majesty?” I asked.“You seem sad; I’m trying to cheer you up,” he said. I looked at him.“I don’t think his majesty does this for anybody,” I said. He nods his head.“Yes, you are right. I couldn't care less if anyone except my brother and my assistant is sad,” he said. That reminds me, I haven’t even met his assistant; she must mean so much to him.“So why me?” I asked. He smiled, looking at me.“You remind me of someone,” he said, and I could see the pain in his eyes. Is what Adrain says all true?“Who?” I asked. He gave me a long look, then looked away.“Someone I used to love,” he said. Used? I thought he still loved her, which is why he doesn’t want to move on.“Who was she to you?” I asked.“She was a lot of t
Red POVI walked to the conference room with Adrian. Today is the day we will be starting an investigation. Now that I am dealing with Lycans who are significantly older than me, how am I going to fool them? I sighed, entering the conference room after Adrain; they were all here as usual. Yasmine sits beside him, glaring at me as I walk in. Well, yesterday we were talking, then she came and started questioning his majesty about why he was with me. Long story short, I left them on the roof without saying a word. I avoid eyes with his majesty; I don’t want to remember our discussion yesterday.“Good morning, your majesty,” I greet, taking my seat. Yasmine scoffed, and I still continue ignoring her.“Good morning, Red, just the person we are waiting for,” Rodney said, and I noticed Felix wasn’t here.“Why is Felix not here?” I asked Adrain.“He doesn’t want to partake in the night hunter search, so we are doing this without him,” Rodney said, and I nodded my head.“Okay, so as you know,
Red POVI walked around the academy, just looking around. This place is so beautiful.“Sorry!” a pup yelled after colliding with me. I smiled, watching him run off with his friends that were chasing him. This place is just so beautiful; the scenery is beautiful—the pups playing, the men going about their day, the ladies gossiping away. I am just realising how they are the main characters of their lives, and I am just a side character living in their words. I smiled while sitting on a bench, and I watched people.The bell rang, and I looked to my right, and the doors opened, but nobody was coming out. I looked up, and elementary was written boldly. Oh, that explains why there are so many women and few men here; they came here to pick their pups. I smiled, watching the pups run out, looking so tattered. I chuckled. They will go to school looking all cute and come back with their hair and clothes dirty. They all yelled, running to their parents with open arms. This must be the most excit
Red POV I walked to the dining room because even though we are no longer in the palace it’s still a rule to eat together here. I walked to the diner in my pajama short and black hoodie. I don’t know what is wrong with me but I have been in a bad mood since yesterday and Aurora is not helping, her mood is so depressing. I entered the dining room and Adrian and Felix choked on their food. Yasmine's mouth hung open and I just rolled my eyes. “What?” I snapped, going to an empty seat beside Aurelian. “What happened to you?” Felix asked. “I had a terrible day and night,” I said, using my hand to relax my wild hair. I didn’t even cover it, my hoodie is extremely baggy because it belonged to Bryan, one of his possessions I kept because I liked it. Then I wore a black short with my fluffy slippers, I don’t even care how crazy I look right now. “What happened to you?” Felix asked. “It’s my damn wolf!” I yelled, hitting the table. They all looked at me. “Behave yourself you stupid child!”
Red POV “Maven,” Felix said, smiling widely. Who is she? Why does she bear this much resemblance to my mom? Felix stood up, running towards her. He hugged her tightly, her head on his chest. “I’ve missed you so much,” she said, hugging him back. “Me too; you left for so long; don’t do it again,” he said, pulling back. I sat there, just looking at them. Aurelian stood up, walking to her, and he hugged her warmly. I don’t know their relationship, but the hug was warm and comfortable. But she pulled back, glaring at him. “What is she doing here, father?” she snapped. My mouth hung open. “Father?” Adrian and I said it at the same time. Father? He has a child! Way older than me! “You know I can’t tell her to leave,” he said. “Yes, you can, father; she is nothing but trouble. What the hell is she doing here?” she asked, her eyes glowing light red. Felix smirked as Aurelian didn’t know what to say, and Yasmine kept looking at the table. Oh, so she is the boss here. “Maven, calm down;
Estelle POVA shrill cry from my pup rang in the ward, and I breathed a sigh of relief, slumping on the bed.“It’s a boy!” Aunt Clara exclaimed, carrying him up. I looked at the boy with a head filled with black hair as he cried out loudly. “Bring him,” I said with a hoarse voice. Tears were running down my face as I sat up weakly. I have been in labour since the previous morning, and now it’s the next day and in the evening. The labour was extremely long; I was in serious pain, and the doctors were confused as the pup wasn’t coming out. Aurelian was chased out because he started panicking and screaming at the doctors, and he and his aunt had to take control of everything. After those long, painful hours, I felt happy as I finally settled into my arms.“It was worth it,” I cried, rubbing his head. He squirmed around in my arms, his eyes closed. Aunt Clara covered him up, and his cries gradually decreased. I smiled at his chubby cheeks and patiently waited for him to open his eyes.He
Aurelian POVWe stopped in front of a cave, and I kept standing here.“We have been riding for too long; what is going on?” Felix asked. I smiled.“I am waiting for Estelle to direct us,” I said.“Estelle, I thought you said you were going to keep her safe?” Aunt Clara asked.“Yes, but she can’t lie to me. I know she would be up to something; Estelle can’t just stay out of everything,” I said, coming down from the horse. I walked to the cave, and I felt the energy again—very dark energy.“The energy is dark,” Aunt Clara said. I nod my head.“This is where he is hiding,” I said.“We don’t have any witches to help us break it,” Rodney said. I smiled.“We wait for Estelle,” I said. I was worried about her, but on our journey here, I realised I shouldn’t have wanted to lock her up. I can’t shield her from this war; it is all about her and what Aurora has passed on to her. I was worried about our pup and her. I don’t want anything to happen to them, but I am happy she wants to do this as a
Third-person POVEstelle and Queen Aurora got to the front of the cave, and they stood there. Ophelia was still finding it hard to find Estelle; she had grown more worried and unsettled as the feeling increased. Kion has spent his time with his daughter, Maven, who has no idea what is happening around her. “Where is Aurelian?” Estelle whispered to Zira, who was on her horse beside her.“They are 30 minutes away from the second entrance; why did you make us stand here?” she asked. “I want him there earlier,” she answered, looking at the entrance. Just exactly how it was, but she could feel the energy coming from it; this is what Aurelian must have felt to know something was blocking him off.“Break it,” she said to Zira. Zira climbed down from her horse and walked to the entrance. Breeze blew them harshly as Zira brought her hand out to suck in the energy.“Wait,” Queen Aurora said from her horse coming down. Zira turned to her, confused.“There is dark energy sealing the spell; stan
Third-person POVHorses rode roughly as Aurelian led his troupe. His warriors and generals all follow behind him. The ground shook, and the branches on the trees all moved violently as the horses and sturdy legs collided with the soil. The smaller packs, aware of what was happening, stayed in their packs nervously as the king and his men passed. Everyone was nervous; families prayed to the moon goddess for their sons following the king’s army. It was finally time for war, which would determine a lot for the wolves and the world.“It’s nice to see you again, Queen Estelle.” Meanwhile, in another place stood Estelle and her troupe of warriors, which she arranged without her mate knowing. A black robe wrapped around her neck, her hair blowing gracefully behind her. She was dressed in a black jumpsuit with armour covering her arms, chest, and legs. They all can’t deny how strong her aura is; even Queen Aurora could feel it. Well, the night was dangerous, and Estelle wasn’t holding back he
Estelle POV“Everything is set; we move tomorrow night,” Aurelian said as we lay on the bed. “I thought you didn’t want me to know?” I asked. He breathed out.“Well, I don’t want you to know to protect you and our pup. Tomorrow you and Zira will be in the secret bunker; you two seem close these days, and she is a witch,” he said. I breathed out again. Well, it’s been a month, and Aurelian and his men found a loop for Kion, but it’s not really a loop. It’s a fake loop, Zira, and I put in to make them go to another place. We have set our motion in motion, and Aurelian doesn’t have any idea what I am doing. I just hope we come out victorious and everyone is safe.The past one month has been very hectic. I was bust just the same way Aurelian was busy, but he doesn’t know. It was hard doing some things without him knowing; I had to threaten a few people. I just hope everything really goes according to plan.“Can Zira break the man’s cave from inside? Just you know I aunt Clara can get to
Estelle POVI looked at the men training; they were training hard, their bodies drenched in sweat.“The king is not backing down; he is training these warriors hard,” Zira said, sitting beside me. I nod my head. I am actually surprised, but I shouldn’t be. He is the Lycan king and has been one for years; he has been to many battles and has won; this wasn’t his first time.“Nothing from Kion?” she asked, whispering very low. I shook my head. “I am a bit worried,” I said, smacking my lips. It has been 2 weeks, and I haven’t heard anything from him. Aurelian has refused to include me in anything concerning the war, but Adrain updates me. They have no idea where he is; they are trying to track him but always end up blocked. I know it’s because the beach is hidden, but I feel proud. They know Kion is near, but something is restricting them.Aurelian is really a great king, smart, calculative, and powerful. The best king the wolves could ever have. But I really don’t want this war. I feel
Estelle POVZira and I stood together as we watched Kion sleeping on the bed, comfortably and naked.“He is causing ruckus out there, but here he is sleeping like he is dreaming of angels,” I smeared, shaking my head in disappointment. Zira giggled.“The Lycan royalty are such a fine specimen; he looks like a god with that face and toned body,” Zira said dreamily. I don’t blame her; the three brothers are handsome with unique features; if only they were all on the same side, they would have been unstoppable. I sighed, twirling my hand, and Kion jumped up in shock as the steamy water hit his skin. He was about to yell out in anger, but I used my powers to seal his lips. He looked in our direction, and his eyes widen in shock and slight anger.“We won’t want to alert the guards outside,” I said, smiling. He growled.“What are you doing here, and how did you get here?” he snapped.“Well, I got here with the help of my friend here,” I said, gesturing at Zira.“Hi,” she said, waving. He gl
Estelle POVI walked down the hallway, looking for Felix. It’s been two weeks, and everything has been calm. I have been eating a lot, and I am slowly gaining weight. Aurelian has been busy; he is still on the edge, but it has reduced. He can’t be with me the whole day, but he checks up on me from time to time. I am tired of sitting around, so I am looking for Zira, but I have no idea where she is, and Felix’s mind link is blocked.“You are the queen and more powerful than him; break into his mind link,” Aurora said, rolling her eyes at me. Now, why didn’t I think of that? I stopped walking, focusing on Felix. His mind link was blocked, but I forced my way in.“Felix!” I screamed into his mind. I giggle, literally feeling him jump in fear.“What the fuck!” he screamed back at me. I rolled my eyes at him.“Where is Zira?” I asked. But he blocked me back. How dare he?“Felix!” I yelled, crossing my arms.“For fuck’s sake, Estelle!” he yelled.“Where is Zira? I need her,” I said.“Zira i
Estelle POVI slowly opened my eyes, and I was not in my room. Instead, I was in a field. Okay, seriously, I am tired of seeing this field, all familiar but at the same time different.“I’m sorry to bring you here, Queen Estelle,” the familiar voice said. I turned around, and Queen Aurora stood there, looking at me. I didn’t know if I should be angry or calm, so I looked at her without saying anything.“I know you have all the right to be angry with me, but I need to talk to you,” she said. “Why?” I asked. She breathed out.“I knew the Lycan King wouldn’t have listened to me if I had told him the dangers of what I was about to do,” she said.“So you decided to put your kingdom at risk?” I asked. She smiled.“I don’t mind if the king wants to go to war with us; we would fight back, but first let Kion be out of the way,” she said. I smiled.“You are awfully brave, Queen Aurora,” I said. “We are not as weak, Queen Estelle,” she said formally.“Why have you brought me here?” I asked. “
