Xenra

As I paced restlessly in my room later that night, I heard a sound at my window.

I hurried to my feet as I realised the moment I had been waiting for was upon me.

Since I didn't need anyone to tell me who it was, I went straight out of the room and quietly walked over to the other side, where Marcus stood, waiting for me.

"My lady," He gestured with a slight bow as soon as he saw me, and before I could ask him to be at ease, his voice came again,

"I've made the necessary arrangements; they are all as fast as sleep," he said, his words dripping with urgency, causing me to nod my head in response.

"My lady, you have to be fast about it." His words came again, "We have just two hours. The portion I gave to them, I added just a little quantity to their drinks so that they wouldn't lose their lives." His words bearing the weight of the urgency coursing through him as he spoke.

"Okay," I answered almost immediately, "thank you, Marcus."

Deep within me, I was grateful for his assista

    Vampire QueenMy attention was suddenly pulled towards the approaching chariot, and my curiosity was piqued.I halted in my tracks, and I turned towards the guest I wasn't expecting, yet I couldn't recognise who it was or tell why the person had visited.As I stood there pondering who it could be, one of the standing guards stationed at the gate broke out from the company and rode towards me.As soon as he was close enough, he jumped down from his chariot, maintaining the difference between us, "My lady!" He greeted with his head bowed."Who's that person approaching us?" I asked him, without relieving him of his posture."It's Lady Lena, my lady." The guard replied, his head still hanging low.As soon as I heard his words, my brows twitched, and a great sense of irritation surged within me."What's she doing here?" I asked, my voice heavy with hatred, but the guards did not have the answer to my question.Immediately, I turned and walked towards the entrance of my palace, and by the

    Vampire QueenAs I walked towards Asher, my lips parted into a warm smile. "Someone is here to see you," I said to him without breaking my stride while he nodded his head in response.Deep within me, my heart was swirling in satisfaction.Just before I could take the bend that leads to my garden, I turned back to take a final glimpse of Lena's expression. Behold, she was still wearing her shocked look, and she seemed lost in a daze as she stared at me. The sight of her like that made my lips curl even further.As soon as I was out of sight, I sashayed straight into the garden, where Hannah was already seated on the hanging egg chair, waiting for me, and I quickly settled into the one next to her."What is Lena doing here?" Hannah's voice dripped with urgency as she searched my calm face.But then, I picked up the glass of apple juice on my side table and took a sip. I twirled the liquid for a few seconds before swallowing it, relishing the sweetness and freshness of the juice.I dr

    Asher"So, what are you doing in your ex's pack?" Lena's voice sliced through the silence that had descended upon us as we stepped into my chambers."You didn't even inform me you were coming to your ex's pack." She pointed out quite unexpectedly.I couldn't help the scoff and low chuckle that rumbled out of my throat as her words settled into my heart."Well," I replied after about three seconds of an inaudible laugh, "I'm sorry, I didn't know I was supposed to inform you before taking any decision." My words wrapped with sarcasm as I chuckled still.But my words only seemed to annoy her as she began to speak as soon as the words left my lips. "We're mates, and soon to be joined together," she stated firmly, her voice laced with disapproval."I think I have the right to know about your movements, especially when it involves your ex." Her voice was firm and steady as she spoke with no atom of a smile on her face, but her words were stirring something else within me.I mentally scoffe

    LenaAs soon as I got out of Asher's chamber, I saw the vampire queen, who clearly wasn't aware of my coming, struggling to regain her composure.From the swift withdrawal of her hands, I could tell she was leaning on the edge of the wall.My lips curled into a broad smirk, and a scoff of amusement escaped my lips, even as she feigned ignorance of what had just happened.Slowly, I closed up the distance between us. "Is this how you've become so unbelievably low?" I scoffed, my words laced with mockery as I stared into her eyes.As soon as she heard my words, she straightened her spine and stood uprightly. "I don't understand." The vampire queen replied with a calm and firm voice, then she scoffed."Oh, I can see you have a poor memory. Well, just in case you've forgotten, this is my pack, and I can do whatever I want in it," she continued, her words laced with confidence as she spoke.Her words caused a low chuckle to rumble out of my lips, and before I could utter a word, she began t

    Asher"You're yet to tell me what brought you to my pack." The vampire queen told me, as we stepped into her closed patio.My gaze wandered towards the pots of aloe veras and peace lilies, which stood beside the screens that enclosed the space, adding a touch of serenity to the already quiet atmosphere.Since it was day, the lights were put off, allowing the rays from the sunlight to bathe the room with warmth.As I took in the sight of the blooming peace lilies, the vampire queen spoke again."Could it be that you've accepted the deal?" she asked, walking towards one of the single couches that stood in the middle, where she settled in, crossing her legs with her gaze fixed on me.The fact that she had thought I would accept such a deal made a low guttural chuckle escape my throat. As it trailed off, I walked towards the couch beside her and settled into it, taking the time to collect myself for the conversation I wasn't really yet ready for.But it seemed I didn't have a choice but

    Vampire QueenI sprang up to my feet as soon as I heard Lena's words. My heart racing at the thought of what it was, I scurried towards Asher, who was pressing hard against his trembling hand."Asher, are you okay?" My words tumbled out in a desperate rush as soon as I stood beside him, my words heavy with the worry that had settled in my heart."Yes, I'm okay," he answered again.But this time around the initial smile I had seen on his face had given way to a more frustrated look and a little flicker of anger.As I stared at him, his voice came again, "You people should stop giving me that pity look as if I'm dying; I'm not dying." Although he tried to keep his cool, I could hear the anger laced in his voice, the pain intertwined in every word he spoke. His brows were deeply furrowed as beads of sweat began to form on his creased forehead.Deep within me, I knew he was only doing his best to suppress whatever he was feeling, and right there, it dawned on me that he hated the fact t

    XenraSilence and calmness followed. Their gazes remained fixed on Asher, who had gone still, like a corpse.From the expression on their faces, I could tell their minds were far from being at peace.Lena, who had never witnessed his episode, had her brows scrunched up as she peered into his face with curiosity. Meanwhile, the impersonator's eyes glinted with fear as they both stared at Asher.After about fifteen seconds of staring at him, someone finally tore the thick blanket of silence that had settled upon us."Are you sure he's okay?" It was Lena who asked without pulling her gaze from Asher, and almost immediately, she continued,"He doesn't look like he's okay; he looks sick." Her words tumbled out in a rush as they echoed the fear that had settled in her heart.As if her voice was the signal the impersonator needed, she took over. "Wait a second, why are his eyes still like that?" she asked, Her words dripped with frantic concern as she leaned in further towards him, without

    Xenra.The impersonator's head whipped towards Lena, who had just spoken, and her lips curled upwards.Amusement glinted in her eyes, while I maintained a barely noticeable smirk.Only then did Lena recall herself. "Well, I don't mean it that way," she began to speak, her words slurring slightly as she struggled to articulate her response."I meant, if his seizure starts at night, what would I do?" She asked with a small gesture, after which she began to regain her confidence, as though she had found an excuse to strongly hold onto."Indeed, what you're saying is not wrong, but I'm not in the right position to stay with him," she continued, her words firmer this time around. "Maybe the vampire queen can stay with him. But don't worry; I won't be far away; I'll be close by, checking occasionally to make sure that nothing is wrong with him." She assured with a firm voice.As her words settled into my heart, I couldn't help but roll my eyes. 'Asher really got himself a darling mate this

    Xenra"Xenra!" The unmistakable, shrill voice of Zara sliced through the quietness hanging over the path leading to the maid's quarters.I turned towards the direction where the voice had come to find Zara running towards me with her arms outstretched, ready for a hug.Before I could say a word, she threw herself at me, wrapping her hands tightly around me, giggling and bouncing with excitement."It's so nice to have you back!" She exclaimed, almost screaming, her words trembling with happiness.She held onto me for a while, and by the time she parted, her lips were broadly spread apart."So tell me, tell me, tell me everything that happened during your stay in the vampire queen's kingdom," she begged, her words tumbling out in a rush, her eyes wide with excitement.But all I could do was to giggle, indulging in her warmth and excitement.As we began to walk towards our room, she held my hands. "Xenra, I'm so happy you're back with every member of your being. You don't know how worrie

    LenaI silently puffed out a breath as I settled into the chair's backrest. "That was close!" I mouthed even as I tried to still my racing heart.I screwed my eyes shut, and my mind began to travel back to what Lena had told me. As the memories lingered, it almost took everything I had to resist the urge to bang my head, even as I recalled what she had told me.'You're such a moron, Lena, how could you forget the story of how they met?' I asked myself, greatly displeased about the fact that I almost blew up my cover.Gradually, I began to give in to the memories that strolled past me, the memories of how Lena had told me everything.It was one of those days when I had visited her pack after months of bonding with her. On that particular day, she took me to her favourite peach tree.Although it wasn't the first time we had spent time under that tree, nor was I oblivious to the fact that she lived in that particular spot, that day my curiosity heightened since I knew I had to learn as

    AsherFinally everything was ready, and it was time to leave.As I walked towards the chariot with Lena tugging closely beside me, I saw Xenra take three steps backwards from the side of the chariot where she stood.Her withdrawal pierced me in the heart, as I didn't need anyone to tell me she was avoiding me.In that instant, a great pang of sadness settled in my heart, accompanied by a looming guilt about everything that had happened.As I settled into the chariot, I couldn't stop the questions that swirled within me.'Why's Xenra behaving like that?' I asked myself, but no matter how I thought about it, I just couldn't understand why she had decided to stay away from me.'Did I really do something wrong?' My question rang in my head, causing my brows to slightly furrow.Right there, my mind began to replay what had happened ever since that night, and no matter how much I thought about it, I just couldn't wrap my head around what the reason was.I turned towards her, but she swiftly

    XenraI watched with a heavy heart as the guards carried their belongings to the horses. Although I had arranged my belongings and had taken them outside, I couldn't find the courage to take them to the horses that were already prepared for departure.While they went about their businesses, I found myself walking towards the entrance of the palace hall, where I stood a few feet away.As I fixed my gaze on the inscription above the door of the palace hall, where "Maltos' castle" was boldly written,A great sense of nostalgia washed over me, evoking memories of my reign as the vampire queen, dressed in my regalia and escorted by Marcus during my official duties.As the memories lingered, I felt greatly reluctant to leave. A great pang of sadness settled in my heart, and longing tugged along, especially since I knew I had to leave, and as I gave in to those feelings within me, I swore,"I promise you, I'll come back home as who I really am and not as a stranger in my home."

    XenraAs I resolved within myself, the soft rattling on the door snapped me out of the thoughts that had kept me busy.In that instant, I jolted and began to walk towards the door, but after two steps, I halted in my tracks."Wait, what has gotten over you?" I mused, my brows deeply furrowed as I pondered why I was behaving frantically.But I didn't even have the time to ponder it, as the rattle on the door snapped me back to action.In that instant, I snapped back to the present, took a deep breath, and straightened my spine, even as I prepared myself for whatever was coming.I had thought it was Lena or one of those people I didn't want to see, like Asher or the impersonator, so I prepared myself for any upcoming confrontation.As I walked gently this time around to the door, I heard the unmistakable voice of Marcus, "It's me, my lady." He said, with a small, hushed tone.As soon as I heard his voice, I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding and doubled my steps to the door.

    XenraMy steps were fast as I dashed through the part that led to my room. With a loud bang, I slammed the door shut, feeling my heart banging hard against my chest."What was I looking at?" I muttered beneath my breath, wondering why I had stood still like an idiot, watching Asher and Lena have their intimate moment.No matter how I thought about it, I just couldn't understand what got me so entranced that I forgot my senses.But as my thoughts lingered, I felt a looming anger within me, gradually coursing through my veins, until I was completely absorbed in it.I was angry that I had seen them kissing; I was angry about the fact that I had bumped into them at that very moment; I was angry that I was affected by it; and I was more angry that I was angry about it."What is really wrong with me?" I asked and paced back and forth, sighing in frustration with a loud puff of breath.Ever since that night with Asher, I haven't been myself. I just couldn't understand why it felt so difficul

    Asher"What are you still doing? Get out!" Lena ordered, the anger laced in her voice unmistakable."How dare you stare at us that way?" She glared at Xenra, who was standing with her head lowered."See how you were looking at us as if you wanted my man to yourself," Lena spat, her voice heavy with menace. "Just because you were able to help alleviate his symptoms, you think you have the right to be where we are?" Lena threw her question to Xenra, who clearly couldn't get herself to say a word to her.I opened my mouth to speak, but after about two seconds, I closed it and pushed back the words that had formed in my throat back to the pit of my stomach.I wanted to tell Lena that it was enough; I wanted to tell her she was being too harsh on Xenra, but then, I knew I shouldn't.I didn't want Lena to get suspicious of anything or even have an opinion. So I had to refrain from intervening in it.Yet, Lena wasn't satisfied with what she had just said, as she continued talking down on Xe

    AsherWith my mind deeply engrossed in thought, I found myself walking towards the patio. As I settled into the couch in the middle, my gaze fell on the peace lilies beside the screen wall. Although the sight of the blooming lilies was calming, my mind drifted yet again, back to the scene of that night—the night I had with Xenra.No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't stop the flashbacks that had continuously plagued my mind like flies, buzzing around me at the faintest opportunity.Although the sex I had with her was purely out of impulse, I just couldn't understand why I was unable to move on from that night; I couldn't understand why I was so affected by what had happened between us.As I gave myself fully to it all, the unmistakable voice of my wolf, Aanon, resonated within me."I think she's familiar," Aanon's voice rumbled within me, snapping me out of her looming presence."What do you mean?"
