**GWEN**

I didn't know how long I was transfixed to a spot in that water after Merit left. I just knew that for a moment I didn't know how to react to her threat and just as I was about to leave the water, I felt something like a shadow pass over the water and became motionless at once.

I thought Merit was going to do something heinous to me, the water being the least of my problem, but when I saw that shadow, I knew I was going to die for sure.

Then boom, someone was inside the water, snapping me out of my shock and I recovered, my first instinct being to run. Run to where? I didn't know, merely striving to try my best.

"It's me, my love," Ashton said, and I have never felt the level of relieve I had at that point which I concealed by slapping at his arms.

"You startled me."

He didn't let me finish and covered my mouth with a scintillating toe-curling kiss that had my head spinning that I forgot about my fear, my body engulfed by his heavenly charms. He appeared excited this evening

    **GWEN**The entire palace was busy with people milling about, engaged in one activity or the other. It was the interior decor team that arrived to prepare the venue where the ball would be held.With every day they broke, I was astounded by the level of importance that was given to this very occasion.Earlier this morning, I had woken up early as Kora came in to arrange the gowns I would be using today, and being that I had informed her to leave out attending to me in the mornings, when I rose to ask her out, I discovered Ashton was gone. And Kora went on to notify me about the palatial engagement today.I went training with my friend after then where Abby said Ashton asked her the other night why she didn't hang out all the time with Tyler. I could see that Tyler was growing uneasy every day with this herculean task plunged at him, and I was very happy he was willing to help me. As always.Now, here we are, doing nothing but standing close to the former Queen, nodding, waving, and s

    **GWEN**There was something definitely going on in the pack that I was not aware of.The night before the day of the ball, Ashton was nowhere to be found. I expected him to be around as he had been scarce these few days. It was either he was in one meeting or the other, or off to train with the horses. He was never around.I dismissed it easily mostly as I was often fatigued at the end of the day myself and as soon as my head hit my pillows, I was off to Lalalaland. But each time I woke up in the middle of the night or in the morning, I could tell he was never going in my room. Kora confirmed this yesterday when I inquired from her if she had seen my mate and her response had been a fierce 'NO'."Your Highness," Kora came into view from the wardrobe, bearing a shimmering turquoise gown intricately woven with diamonds from head to toe. From the waist went down on a smooth fishy slope that I was sure when I wore it, would magnify my waistline. One couldn't help but stare open-mouthed

    **ASHTON**I had intentionally concealed the recent happening in the palace from my mate knowing how she would have reacted if informed. I saw how she was engaged, running about the place nonstop trying to make sure today was a success.It was something I didn't think anyone could do apart from my mother. From the way I saw my mother watching her every movement closely with small smiles mindless smiles etched on her face, I knew she was proud of her.Don't be mistaken. I was not fine with it. Normally, the Queen was not expected to carry out these things as they were the major works of the welfare team. However, seeing as she had insisted and my mother had adamantly supported her, I knew there was little to nothing I could have done about it.And I liked it.It only irked me as I was not often around most of the time to enjoy watching her from my window up there as she talked to someone, wiped sweats off her brows, mumbled things I craved to hear to herself- thinking no one was seeing

    **GWEN**The moment I heard Abby's statement, my ears perked up, my body tensing, knowing it was my handwork. I came out of the shower, grabbing the white towel on the hanger by the wall to wrap around myself and followed Ashton who was apparently fuming.He snatched his clothes from the bed and made for the door, not sparing either of us any glance."The vampire King is here for real?" I asked to be certain, drawing closer to Abby who was just turning back from staring after her brother.She nodded. "Yeah, I'm surprised too. What gave him the nerves to come here?” As she spoke her facial expression relayed her disgust. I sharply looked away, choosing to make my way to the wardrobe to pick up my undies and start preparation. It appeared I would have to go down as soon as possible since the guests were already starting to arrive."Gwen?" Abby's voice drawled suspiciously."Mmm?" I wore my bra, picked up my thongs and wore, not looking her way."Why do I feel like you have a hand in t

    **GWEN**My first reaction was a gasp that emitted from my mouth long before I realized myself and took a step forward in panic. Forgotten was the party behind me and the people waiting for their hosts to deliver the first dance and speech. My heart instantly dilapidated with the news of my mate out there. Down. Down as in how?"What do you mean by 'down?'" I confronted the messenger, my eyes wide in apprehension. I dropped my gown and went for his shoulders, placing my hands on both of them to get his full attention. "Take me there.""No," Charlotte intervened, apparently coming out shock herself. She took my right wrist and tugged me a step away from the man. "You have to stay here and keep the party going. I will go with Abigail to them." I was shaking my head, my spirit, soul and body no longer here with them. What does she mean by ‘keep the party going’? How could I do that when at this moment I could hardly maintain a clear head?"Look at me!" Charlotte commanded, grasping my s

    **ASHTON**What is happening? Why do I feel this level of pain? Damn it! It looked as though my eyes were bound with heavy weighted objects. I couldn't move or blink them.I tried again, this time with a groan. Fangs were agitating too. I knew he wanted to show himself, but I couldn't let him out because that would mean danger. It was rare for me to let out my Lycae. At a matter of fact, it was a rarity for a Lyxan to let out their Lycae when it was not yet red moon.This is because without the closeness or at least the presence of the red moon, it made it hard for us to control them. For someone like me, I have learned ovef the years to control Fangs because of how vicious he could be if threatened or smelled unwanted confrontation. Something like what happened this evening. We were caught in a trap. A trap I was still confused about how we entered it.After .y sister broke the news of the presence of the Vampire King, I had been blinded by rage all I desired to do was to go down t

    **GWEN**"The King had entered into an ambush," Tyler said to me in a thick concerned voice, his face passive in the dim light.My mouth fell open in dismay, taking a step back with my hand to my stomach which seemed to have knotted, combined with the tightened corset. I forgot to breathe for a second. "H-how did it happen?" I was on him again, taking his left hand. "I need to see my husband.""Hey." He replaced by hands with his, tugging me gently. "You need to focus on the present. He would be fine. The former Queen just arrived at the area and I had to come because I knew you would need someone here with you.""Tyler!" My voice chugged with tears. The corners of my eyes were starting to sting from tears, the guests in the ballroom, totally forgotten. "Would he be okay?""He would be fine. He is the Lycan King.""I-I caused this." Was all I could think. My eyes skated about with a blank mind. I felt like I could do something but then I didn't know what. "I shouldn't have invited the

    **GWEN**The night seemed to be endless and so was my uneasy heart. Ashton hardly spared me a glance, even as we danced. It was as if I was there but to him I was not existing. With each step we made on the dance floor, you the onlookers everything was alright, but between us we knew there was war.Immediately the dance came to an end, the gathering broke out in a loud cheer, howling at the top of their voices as we bowed and Ashton led me out towards the staircase that led to his throne. His hands not leaving mine.“That was a wonderful performance, I must say, Ashtin.” Cane a familiar voice just before we approached the staircase.I felt Ashton tense, the hand holding mine tightening as we came to a stop and very slowly he twisted around with me to face the same man I had danced with before whom Tyler confirmed to be the Vampire King.“Vladimir,” Slurred Ashton, forcing on a smile.“Oh, come off it, Lycan,” Thhe man waved, smoking port which he exhaled into the air. The dance went

    GWENEpilogue (A year later.)"Oh, come on, Henry!" I screamed at the top of my lungs at my son, barreling down the staircase like a hellcat after him as he giggled innocently, unaware of the distress he was causing me."My Queen, let me get him." Kora was behind me, racing after us."Don't worry, Kora, I can do this."Just at the last staircase as I was almost rounding on him, out of nowhere, he was swept up from the ground. Increasing his baby chuckles. I think he was having fun out of my misery."I guess you have been naughty again," Tyler crooned to him. The young man unaware of the punishment waiting for him kept giggling mindlessly. I stopped to touch my forehead and let out a frustrated breath. I thought my husband was stubborn, but his child is ten times more. Tyler gave me a pitiful glance. "It's their time.""I guess I wasn't well prepared for this like I thought." I twisted to nod at Kora who in turn left immediately. Then I made my way down. "How's Abby and Caleb?""As fine

    ASHTON"Good boy, Striker," I scratched my giant stallion by the flank as I made to leave his side, and with a single nod, matched in their direction of the backyard door to sneak back into the house. Today was the blasted ball organized by my mother and my nostrils were already overwhelmed with the disgusting smell of the different creatures that were flooding in from their disgusting Kingdoms. Yes, you heard me correctly. All thanks to my mother, she like my mate, ended up organizing another ball all in the name of peace. That was after convincing me to quench my taste for the blood of the sickening vampires and of course, agree to this if only I desire to see my wife again. Have I mentioned about the Tyler path?All these I had to approve of just to get Gwendolyn's attention. What could I do?I accepted, but hell knows none of them would see me at the damned ball! And by the goddess, I hope this works, if not, the bloody vampires would get twice the rage I was going to use to co

    GWENWho said it was easy to let go? They were all damn liars! Bloody blasted liars who stooped so low to write for fame even though at the detriment of the truth.It was a mere fallacy. True love is destructive as it is healing. I discovered that the hard way. I thought I was going to forget. In one month. Two months. Or possibly three months. Damn it, I knew I won't forget, but somewhere in my heart, I hoped to be able to endure it. That my love for Ashton would fade away and slowly over time it would become just a figment of my past. Just like Julian. Yet, every day when I woke up, it was like yesterday. Nothing new. Instead, I grew lonelier and bitter. I just wanted to perish, however, even death seemed too far off to come to me. "Gwen, darling." A subtle knock sounded at the door followed by a soft shove. It was my mom. From the window I have been standing staring outside like I do every day, I looked in the direction of the brown oak, and back, quickly reaching up to dab

    ASHTONFive months later...When I was a pup, Dad would often rouse me from sleep very early in the morning to walk miles, run, and do several things that would be considered abnormal for a pup of my age. Back then, I often looked forward to it with a grudgeful heart, wishing to be like every other pup who enjoyed their morning respite with no discomfort , all in the name of me being a future Lycan King.And my mother, she was the exact same if not stricter than my dad so I couldn't even look to her for salvation.After the death of my father which forced me to become King at an earlier age, I came to appreciate everything he did for me, and even more so, my mother for her hardhandedness. But today, I could wholeheartedly say that in all those training, if there was one aspect they never prepared me for, it was the emptiness, the big hole, the depression in our heart that was created when we lost a loved one.The harsh blow dealt on us by love."My decision is final," My voice carried

    GWEN"She will be alright, Sal." Was the first thing I heard in my head before gradually, my environment registered. I didn't open my eyes immediately not because I didn't want to as I could hear the succinct fear in my father's voice as he reassured my mother of someone going to be alright, but I couldn't as a result of the bright light focused on my vision, causing my head to bang.Then, the next thing that occurred to me was that I was lying on a bed. I recalled vividly I had gone to the woods to clear my head. I ran. I also recalled everything going dark. Abruptly, my lids snapped open followed by a loud wince."Gwen!" My mother careened, hurrying to my bedside. "You are awake."How did i get here? "Windows," I breathe, bristling when she caressed my upper arm in a motherly gesture. "Oh." Father went to shift the curtains and curb the light, leaving the room in a dimly lit state. He came to stand beside mother and they watched me like hawks."How did I get back?" My eyes were s

    GWENI couldn't believe what I just heard. Ashton killed his ex? But...how? How is that even possible? I tried to wrap my head around it but the more I tried, I kept arriving at a dead end in my head. By now, my appetite was gone and like him, I found my hand frozen, my spoon lowering to my ceramic ware. Right at that point, even the white lights from the spiraling chandelier suddenly appeared dark and everything around me seemed to turn vile, my food inclusive, like a venom in my mouth.He killed a werewolf and yet he hated us and saw us as the problem. Meanwhile, we were the ones supposed to demonstrate such behavior towards him. We were the ones hurt. The ones wronged. Who killed their lover because they broke their heart? Is Ashton this much of a monster? How much of this man do I not know?"Unfuckenbelievable!" Charlotte cried out, slapping the gray napkin she had been using to wipe her hands roughly on the table as if the poor object was the present cause of her wrath. "You-wha

    ASHTON"Where is Striker?" I asked as I approached the stables in the morning, an obscured smile hinting at the background of my face for obvious reasons. It had been so since last night. One would think I won the lottery from the manner my heartbeat was plummeting inside my chest.Just because of her.Love felt that way."He is feeding in the open field, your highness," Tyga said, pointing in the direction of the open plush meadow where a huge black stallion was bent feeding. These days, I no longer bothered to hide them. I wonder why my mother hadn't taken notice."Prepare him." I marched forward into the stables to check on the two other horses in there. I will be going to the big ranch to check out the rest later on, not that it was necessary, as I trusted Tyga. Merely for formality's sake. At the first house, a greyhound poked its nose in my palm, sniffing for treats, causing me to grin. I fed him one which he was fast to ravish and came back for more, I ignored him until I was d

    **GWEN**"Show me how much," I moaned, my finger sinking into his scalp to drag him closer. I felt like I was drunk and still needed more wine. I couldn't get enough of him. Our lips clashed in a battle of prowess, each fighting for dominance while at the same time trying to showcase our frustration over the lost nights. I desired everything about this man down to his faults. His madness, his insecurities. My pussy got wet merely knowing he was jealous of seeing me with another man even as it frightened me. No one had ever wanted me this way. And it had to be him. The King of Lycans! It was enough to turn me on. "You have no idea what you have signed up for," he mumbled in a hoarse voice, grabbing my lap as he stood up from the sofa and the next thing, I was slapped against the wall. "Argh!" I cried out, but my words were cut short by his tongue that thrust deep down my throat, and back out, eliciting more moans from me and the need to match his attack. When his lips left mine, i

    **GWEN**My mother's face dropped in worry and she hastily scooted closer and placed her left hand on mine, bringing my attention back to her. "Is this what you have been going through silently? Why didn't you tell me at once?""Because I didn't want you to worry, mother. What was I supposed to say? The Dr has different reasons why he thinks I can't bear children but I recalled him saying something about duplicate genetics which I interpreted to be that I don't have a wolf. But right now, I no longer know, Mother.""What does your husband have to say about this?"I shrugged depressively. "Nothing. He seemed to not care but I'm still worried. I want my own child. I want to be able to carry my own baby, Mother. Is that too much to ask from the goddess after all I've been through?" My voice quivered, unrepressed tears pouring down my face. Mother was fast to gather me in her arms and allowed me sob out my heart. "It's going to be okay, my child. Believe me, the goddess might already b
