She stiffened beneath me. I frowned and looked at her face. She was sitting up and lowering her dress at the same time. I stared at her in confusion. “What are you doing?” “Your meeting,” she reminded me. “You can’t miss it.” “I can and I will,” I said angrily. “I’m the King I can do whatever I wa
Everyone looked at me expectantly. I started my speech by saying my titles. It was a mere formality but it had to be done. Once that was out of the way, I ordered the hangman to read me their crimes. “They have been charged with attacking the most sacred place in all the kingdom, murder, vandalism
Olivia I could hardly tear my eyes away from the ceiling. My face was puffy from all the crying. I couldn’t get a grip on my emotions no matter how hard I tried. Everything felt wrong even though I knew a part of the truth. There were times when I tried convincing myself that maybe my grandmother
Although my connection to him was strong, if I showed up with my real face while she was still in the picture he might not know who to believe. And because of my powers, he might assume that I fabricated our bond. Created it somehow. I had to unmask her and only then would he believe me. But how w
Olivia My first thought when I woke up in the morning was that I had to see Bambi. It felt essential for me to check up on him and make sure he was alright even though there wasn't much I could do to help him even if he wasn't. He was under the supervision of one of the generals along with the ot
There was the cellar. I walked in that direction. The door was locked but I didn’t need to be inside the room. Being down the stairs and in the dark was good enough. We wouldn’t be seen. “Anna!” he said as he stopped in front of me. His smile was wide. “I knew you’d do something to help me. I knew
Olivia “How so?” he asked me curiously. I saw no point in keeping the truth a secret from him. He would find out soon and I preferred if he learned the truth from me. “The princess Olivia is the Alpha King’s mate,” I said. “She is here in the palace.” Bambi was shocked at this. He staggered ba
“A lot of innocent people were killed,” I reminded him. “People who had nothing to do with any of this. People who were oppressed as well.” “I know,” he said, eyes clouding over. “That’s why I didn’t initially agree to the attack but I was overruled. Hell, they wouldn’t even listen to me. I’m old e
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
