When the miracle begins, I'm not aware of it at first. I see my face reflected in the water, and I see my blood in my hands. But this doesn't look like an ordinary reflection. I open my mouth to ask the beta what he thinks about the reflection, and hear my voice echoing all around me. I'm startled.
Olivia I hear heavy doors opening behind me. The beta jumps to shield me with his body. I see guardians stomping toward me in two lines. They're all armed and their faces are blackened with rage. But is it rage or is this a projection of David's feelings? If my calculations are correct, everyone
The cliff is only a few yards away. The palace was built on top of this cliff, and right beneath the cliff there's the ocean. If he's marching them to the cliff, that means he's expecting to have them pushed off. This would kill them. "No!" I exclaim. I start moving forward but two guardians sto
Arthur Olivia. No. My feet are rooted to the ground. I can't move. My heart won't believe what my eyes saw. In my mind's eye, I still see her there. She's standing over the edge and trying to help that girl. I see her hair blowing in the wind. She looks sad but hopeful. The world has stopped
And anger. A whole lot of anger. The very people she was trying to save have caused her—I can't say it. I won't say the word. They've caused this unfortunate event to happen. I didn't want her to sacrifice herself. Her persuasion is what caused this. To me, she could remain safely by my side and w
Olivia I open my eyes. The first thing I do is look around. I don't know this place, I realize. I have absolutely no idea where I am. It's a strange feeling, trying to remember something I have no memory of. I try to figure out how I got here and where I was before I even got here, but none of t
"It's worse when he writes it down," she concludes. "My debt wasn't written down, and it's a hefty one. I didn't even ask for most of the things he's charging me for. It's ridiculous and unfair, but that's exactly what he is. You'll know when he comes in here. I suspect that he does. He's always che
Olivia The Master walks into the tent with Alice trailing behind him. I'm still distracted by the water moving in the glass that I don't pay much attention to them at first. It's only when the Master stops in front of me and shields the view of the table that I finally look at his face. He isn't
This was a significant moment for all of us. We had our own meeting ceremony just a week ago. There was no reason why we couldn’t renew our vows and be mated in front of the whole world. I officially became Luna Queen, yet everyone always called me Mother Luna. It was a title that inspired hope in
Olivia So the rogues took over my kingdom, and after that there was only peace. My aunt daisy, who was taking care of the kingdom for me, decided to come live here with me and Arthur. She was disappointed when she found out what her daughter had done. She didn’t know anything about her plan, but
Arthur’s brows shot up. “So you have your old memories back?” “Yes,” I answered, smiling. I was seeing him with different eyes now. He was my Arthur again. And I had missed him. I had missed this memory I had of him. He came over to my side and embraced me. We held each other for the longest time a
Olivia When Bambi returned to tell us that everything had worked out according to plan, I fainted. I was so relieved that everything had worked. I could hardly believe that I managed to convince the Captain to trust Emma to cast the spell on the fake Olivia, a spell that the goddess whispered in
I could very well be wrong. “What if I told you that I received a better offer?” he asked curiously. “What would you do then? How would you convince me to take your offer instead of the one I received?” “Impossible,” he said. “There is no better offer than mine.” “How can you be so sure?” he ask
Arthur I looked at the Rogue Captain. We made eye contact. When he was here the last time, he made it clear that he wanted power. He wanted a place where he could rule his people and not under some tree. That was what he said. He believed the rogues didn’t have any representation, which wasn’t
I frowned. This made Darius smile because he knew something that I didn’t. He said, “Surprised? You should be. I spent months under this very roof and you didn’t even see me. What kind of Alpha King is that? You posed a threat to all of our people. You were a bad King, through and through.” “Not wo
Arthur Upon arriving, four days after we left the campsite, I quickly realized that something was terribly wrong. There was too much agitation around the city. People looked around hesitantly like they were terrified. I wasn’t paid any attention to because I was dressed in rags. I had to find new
She turned and looked at me in surprise. Then, she began to cry. She put her head on my lap and cried. I could only stroke her head. I was grateful that she was here, alive and well. At least she wasn’t dead. “What happened?” I asked her even though I had an idea. Alice shook her head. “They rou
