"There's a breach!" he shouted. "The Rogues have attacked the palace. The Rogues have attacked us!" Rogues? I didn't know what he was talking about but Josh seemed to know. His demeanor changed completely. He asked the guard, "Where are they now?" "In the garden!" the guard answered. The garden?
Olivia The slave man didn't take his eyes off me for a second and I questioned my judgment for the hundredth time. Only about ten minutes had passed yet they felt like a hundred instead of ten. The silence was too loud for my liking and his continuous staring was starting to scare me. Yes, I foll
These people needed me. They recognized my efforts and appreciated them. Despite his words, it didn't skip my attention that he spoke of the slaves as if he wasn't one of them. He spoke of them as if they were a completely separate entity. It made me even more curious about him. There were many thi
Olivia The noises outside the door were getting louder and I instinctively knew that we couldn’t stay here for long. Still, moving out of this room wasn’t safe because we didn’t know where else we could go. The slave man didn’t want to go to the basement. He insisted that it wasn’t safe there. I
I couldn’t not panic. “What do we do?” I asked him. “We can’t leave now.” “No, we can’t,” he said calmly. “We’re going to have to wait until the fight comes to an end. Then we can leave.” “What if it doesn’t?” “Then we’ll regret not leaving sooner.” He was perhaps the most negative person that
Olivia The slave man raised his hands and said to the Rogues, "Calm down. We don't mean any harm. We're just trying to get to safety." "On your knees!" one of them said. I scanned both their faces. They were both young. Teenagers. We didn't get on our knees. The slave man said, "It's not us you
"Bambi," the other one said impatiently, "I told you to cut them down!" Bambi looked at him with hard eyes and answered, "You don't tell me what to do, Elijah. I'm the one in charge here, not the other way around." Elijah looked at him with disgust. "You're forgetting your place, kid. Just because
Olivia Bambi let out a curse as he ran his fingers through his hair. Only a few seconds passed since Elijah fell with the arrow embedded in his back. The slave looked at me and said, "We can't stay here for long. If more come, all of this will have been for nothing." I couldn't just turn away an
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
