MILDRED

STRAWBERRY PARADISE

Enid had returned that noon to meet Chase and I in the dining area. I was scared he was going to get crazy over it.

But his eyes were soft and distant, if he was infuriated, it did not show in his mild exterior as he came over to discuss a few things with Chase.

They had talked for a while longer until I skipped from the table and returned to the room.

The only thing that was fueling my joy was my little gift waiting in a pink plastic bag.

I doubled over on the stairs and In no time I was inside my room. I bolted to the bag but I stopped dead in my tracks.

I plopped on the bed, all smiles. My fingers carefully and gently grazed over the beautiful sunflowers engraved into the bag.

I started to empty the content. First, a box of chocolate, some protein bars, candies and a lot of other small cute things that could keep me busy while watching the garden.

Vanessa came in to clear my lunch. I did not touch it since I had one downstairs. She didn't bother

    MILDREDVanessa and I remained quiet in the room staring out the window together. It was a difficult time for us. I realized we had much in common. We were both runts, our mates didn't want us and we were very kind at heart. "I'm scared Alexis might hear Chase and I are fated. It's going to be very tough for me if she does." Vanessa mumbled. "You know Alexis?" I asked, thinking of the very beautiful girl who clung to Chase's side on occasions. My friend was not a match with her preppy exterior but Vanessa had what was on the inside and that was the most important thing. "My mom used to babysit her at times. We at some point became friends. She liked Chase," she glanced at and said with the tiniest voice, "I liked Chase too." She chuckled and remained quiet. "It's not hard to not like Chase." I sighed. "He was a stereotypical jock, good at every sport back then in high school. I didn't finish." Her eyes welled up and she shrugged, "It doesn't matter now. Thinking about it only m

    Chapter 70MILDRED HARD AS ROCKSBEEP! BEEP!! BEEP!! BEEP!!! My alarm went off right beside me. I groaned. Stretching with my hand out the duvet, I wandered it blindly and swatted it around the nightstand wincing at the pain it caused as I furiously tried to turn off the groggy noise. When my hand finally felt the button, I pushed it gratefully, automatically silencing the noise. My hand fell limply back to the bed, I was completely drained, and lay weighing my options of doing thirty more minutes or getting out to get the day started. Sleeping in was the most pleasing option and it was just four in the morning. Way too early.However, my eyes flickered open as It suddenly embraced my memory Enid said I was to go to the gym today as early as. It was my first training. Heaving a sigh, I swung to the side tossing aside the warm duvet. I stretched the wearily rubbing the sleep from my eyes and yawed widely. I trotted to the closet gaze darted around to see what was going to wear. I

    MILDREDORDER FROM ABOVEVanessa was more than thrilled to get started with her new position as my assistant. She marched into my room that morning as early as six to help me get started. I was not up yet when her big eyes looked down at me and her thick lashes fluttered as they considered me. "You're not ready yet?" She gasped in disbelief. "Get up!" She tossed the bed covering aside and I wiggled out of bed. I yawned, scratching my elbows as I stared blankly at her. "What day is it today?""Monday, and your first class today. Do you want to be the Queen of Selenia?"I went over the question in my head and didn't even know if I wanted to. "Yes you want to and don't let sleep rob you of such once-in-a-lifetime glory. Hey, your lazy ass off and get on to the bathroom.""Yes, granny!" I stuck out my tongue and went into the bathroom.She was waiting by the window when I stepped out of the bathroom and her smiles were radiant. I glanced to see my breakfast was not at the table. "Y

    MILDREDWILD BUSH"Ximena don't!" Vanessa tugged my arm gently trying to hurl me out of my fury, "It's fine. I'll wait around somewhere."I watched as Vanessa turned back from the room. I just couldn't stand this lady's attitude. I just couldn't stand watching her treat Vanessa as though she was a mere escort and even though she was, people deserved a little bit of respect.I wanted to turn around and walk out on this lady. I wanted to yell to her face that she should learn manners first before thinking she could teach one, but then I realized it was who this lady was. It was why Enid had issued the warning to keep my mouth... My fat mouth shut because he knew she could be pretty sour. Sour grapes were never appealing. I stepped into the room. She had already lost her respect in my eyes and she needed to work double to regain that respect. "Please have a seat, Luna." She waved me to a seat and I glanced at the seat. An L-shaped sofa.I gracefully sat on it as she moved to her des

    MILDREDNOTHING BUT JOYEnid told the chauffeur to stop us over for lunch at the exquisite restaurant. I got down and with a vigorous shove, I pulled Vanessa out of the car. "Alpha Enid won't appreciate me being at the table." She whined with fear in her eyes."I do. You're hungry and we're getting something to eat." I hissed dragging her towards the main entrance. She was now behind me with her head hung down as we made our way into the restaurant. A waiter led us to the table where Enid was and Vanessa tried to break free from me when she saw Chase by the table. "Ximena please!" She was begging now, "I don't want to share tables with —" She went instantly silent because we were at the table now and the two men at the table were regarding us with gross interest."Sit!" I patted a space beside me for the trembling girl. Chase had such a strong grip on her, she didn't act this way when it was just Enid in the morning."I'll wait in the car." She stuttered and turned to leave."It's

    MILDREDTHE PERFECT MISTAKE "Thank you for today!" Vanessa blessed the chauffeur with her radiant smile as we bustled out of the car with shopping bags on both sides of our hands.We went on a shopping spree and no, we didn't get trendy outfits and bags like normal girls did. Instead, we got a lot of junk we were to conceal somewhere and enjoy whenever we had our free time. We were happy. Vanessa's face was rosy from talking and laughing so hard and before I could reach out to her, she blindly bumped into someone.Marcella. Her shopping bag fell to the floor and spilled its contents on the floor. My lips formed an 'O' and Vanessa went for her candies first without considering to apologize. That was how much it meant to her. This riled Marcella up and with a graceful and precise swing, she kicked the candy in the floor before Vanessa could reach for it. She kicked the shopping bag spilling more contents. "This is gold!" Alexis who came right beside her giggled her eyes searching

    MARCELLAA SMOOTH PLAN AND A SMOOTHIE "Did you see that?"I blinked incredulously at my best friend, Alexis as we stood gaping at Ximena as she found her way up the stairs disappearing into the pearly hallway. "Do you agree with me now something Is off about her?"I added moving and motioning Alexis towards the kitchen. She settled by the island watching as I went over to get her something to drink. "She's the same girl. She's now married to the most powerful wolf in Selenia. I would act that way and worse if I had Chase. You know I've loved him all my life. But how come he's not saying anything? ""He could be just developing cold feet for commitment." I shrugged only because I was unsure of what to say."But he keeps coming over. I want him to define things I just can't keep sleeping with him without something concrete. I've fucked Chase my whole life.""Then stop." I said and her eyes fluttered at me, "Maybe if you stop then he will start thinking straight."She laughed long eno

    MILDREDHELLO, STUDENT! "Get up!"Vanessa's voice took on a hard edge at her tenth attempt to get me out of bed the next morning. It was almost seven o'clock and all the motivation to get out was diminished by the warmness and sweet comfort of the bed."Five more minutes," I said dreamily hoping to hang long enough in my sleep to complete my make-out session with Enid. It was one of those wild dreams I had been having since when I met Enid the second he had skipped a ring down my finger.How was he so wrong, so dreadful yet dreamy? How was he able to hurt me terribly in real life but soothe my dreams and kindle me with fresh needs?Why did I desire him so much even though he mistreated me? Even though he ignored me in the worst way anyone ever had gone?"That's it, I'm going to use force now." Vanessa huffed moving over to tug at my duvet.I struggled with making it out into a play. "Have you forgotten I'm your Luna? This could cost your head!""It could cost my head if you're lat

    MILDREDTHE END.I sat on a bench at the burial ground, surrounded by the peaceful silence of nature. In front of me lies the grave of my beloved sister, Ximena. I took a deep breath and began to speak, as if she's still with me."Ximena, it's been a year since you left us. I know you're no longer here, but I need to tell you everything that's happened. I need to make sure you know how much we've accomplished, how much we've healed."Elias and Naveah, they thought they could get away with taking you from us, but they were wrong. Enid and I worked together to bring them to justice. They're now serving life sentences with hard labor. Molly, who was sheepishly helping them, was released and came to me asking for forgiveness. I forgave her, and we've moved on. Marcella, who was also involved, was released but left the pack in shame. Elder Remy, Elias' accomplice, was given a one-year jail term and was banished from the pack as soon as he was released.I paused, looking at her grave."Toda

    MILDREDFINALLYI woke up to a knock on the door, my heart was still heavy with grief and I didn’t expect that anyone would be at my door this early. My heart still aches badly. I had only met my twin sister,the Ximena I thought I was impersonating all along, I didn’t know that she was my other half, I had the opportunity to meet her, how could she even be gone already? This doesn’t even make sense!She was taken from me in an instant, by a bullet meant even for me. I felt very guilty even until this moment. I grumbled as I got out of bed and made my way to the door. Vanessa stood outside, her face looking really somber.I looked at Vanessa for a moment, then nodded and walked back to my bed. She suddenly hugged me tightly and burst into tears. I tried to hold back my tears, but I couldn't. We both cried for a while. Then, she held my hands and looked at me with sad eyes. "Someone is here to see you, Mildred," she said softly. "Who is it?" I asked, my voice barely audible. "Just c

    MILDRED RIP XIMENA "Oh no, Ximena! Please wake up! We've just found each other, don't leave me now!" I screamed, my voice shaking desperately. Ximena's body lay limp on the ground, her eyes closed, her chest bleeding from the gunshot wound. "Take this madman away!" Enid yelled, and the police dragged Elias away, wresting the gun from his hand. Ximena's eyes flickered open, and she gazed at me with tears streaming down her face. "I'm so glad I found you, sister," she whispered, her voice weak. "Navaeh took me from our mother when we were babies. She used us being twins and that fact that it was a taboo and we will be killed if disclosed to blackmail me, but I'm free now." I held her hand, my heart breaking into a thousand pieces. "Don't worry, Ximena, you'll be okay. We'll get you to the hospital, and you'll survive this." But Ximena's smiled, even though I could see how sad she was through her eyes. "It's too late, Mildred. The bullet hit my heart. I'm sorry...there's nothi

    MILDREDHE PULLED THE TRIGGER!"This is it, Marcella! You're going to pay for all the suffering you've caused me!" I snarled, my hand cracking against her cheek in a resounding slap. "And that's for Ximena! I turned my icy gaze on Navaeh, my eyes blazing with pain and fury. "Navaeh," I spat, my voice dripping with venom. She cowered, her body trembling like a leaf, as she beheld the wrath in my eyes. This was the moment I had been waiting for, the moment of reckoning."You treated me like dirt, Navaeh! You made me feel worthless, always favoring your own daughter, Molly, over me. You never cared about my well-being, only your own selfish interests."“Errmm, I…I…” Navaeh tried to speak, but I wouldn't let her. "No, you don't get to talk! You sent me out into the night, alone and vulnerable. If not for destiny, I would have never met Enid. You would have gotten me killed by gunmen or kidnappers because you obviously wouldn’t have paid a dime to get me out of there"My voice cracked w

    ENIDMILDRED AND XIMENA ARE TWINSElder Remy's face turned beet red with rage. "You've betrayed the pack, Enid! You lied about Ximena! You're a disgrace to the throne!"Mildred dropped to her knees, pleading with the elders. "Please, have mercy! Enid had no part in this. I deceived everyone, I pretended to be Ximena. I'll accept my punishment, but spare him!"I watched, frustrated, as Mildred took the blame. Didn't she realize she was making things worse? I thought she had learned to think before acting, but apparently not. I felt a surge of annoyance, wanting to tell her to stop, to let me handle it. But I kept my cool, knowing that would only make things worse.Remy's harsh words towards Mildred ignited my anger. "Shut up!" he barked, and my blood boiled. How dare he disrespect my mate?Mildred's attempts to take the blame only made Remy more furious. "You're not fooling anyone, this was a plan between you and Enid. You'll face a harsher punishment," he snarled, ordering the guards

    MILDRED OFFCOURSE SHE IS NOT XIMENA I paced back and forth in the room, my mind racing with questions. Why did Enid look so worried? What could be so important that he had to cut our night short? We had plans, plans that didn't involve returning to the pack's headquarters until whenever. I felt a knot in my stomach, my wolf senses tingling with unease. As I paced, my feet carried me to the window, where I gazed out into the night. The stars twinkled, but my eyes saw only darkness. My thoughts were a jumbled mess, my emotions raw. I couldn't believe what Enid had just revealed - that my stepmother, Navaeh, had locked my wolf away all these years. The pain and anger I felt were overwhelming. Eventually, my back ached from pacing, and I collapsed onto the bed, covering myself with the duvet. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes, and I let them fall, my body shaking with silent sobs. I didn't know how long I cried, but exhaustion finally claimed me, and I drifted off into a f

    ENIDMILDRED HAS A WOLFI couldn't contain my excitement. Today was going to be very beautiful and I just couldn't wait. I don't want to spill the tea to Mildred so I just asked her to get dressed but has been trying to ruin the surprise with too many questions."Where are we going?" she asked for the upteenth time, her eyes sparkling with curiosity."Somewhere special," I replied, my smile growing wider. "Just trust me."She laughed and chatted as she got ready, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of joy being around her. I helped her into the car and asked her to stay quiet.I signaled Courtney and she injected her with a sedative. I thanked Courtney and we drove to the forest, where Danda, a powerful shaman, was waiting for us.*"Mildred's wolf has been locked away," Danda revealed, his eyes looking serious. "Her stepmother's doing, no doubt." I was so shocked, how can someone penetrate such cruelty? What could she have done for him to have done that? She deserves to be punishe

    ELIASTHE CAT’S OUTTA THE BAG!I swirled the wine in my glass, the rich aroma filling my senses as I sat in Elder Remy's cozy sitting room. The warm glow of the fireplace lighting the room and it made it exude an aura of wealth, but my mind was far from at ease.I summoned the Elder himself, elder Remy had so much power and influence in the pack and I knew he would be the best person to help me with this. My thoughts raced with the weight of the secret I carried - the truth about Ximena. Or rather, the imposter who had been masquerading as her.I took a sip of the wine, the flavors dancing on my tongue as I gathered my thoughts. How could I break the news to Elder Remy, to the entire pack, that the woman they believed was their beloved Ximena was a fraud? That Enid, of all people, had been deceiving them all?I began to have double thoughts. What if that scares them and they deny me the throne too since we are related and have same bloodline? Not possible! They will trust me and see

Elias's betrayal cut me really deep, and I couldn't bear the thought of him ruining my reputation with whatever video he took of me, but Alexis's warm embrace and gentle words of encouragement comforted me. "Marcella, it's not the end of the world," she said, trying to make me feel better. "We'll find a way to make it through this without Elias soiling your name."I looked up at her, tears streaming down my face. "But how? He's going to ruin me, Alexis. I've come too far to let him win." My voice cracked, and I felt fresh hot tears tingling at the corners of my eyes.Alexis' facial gesture changed, I could tell an idea had clicked. "We'll set him up, Marcella. I'll act like I want to get down with him, and then I'll raise an alarm, saying he tried to molest me. We'll turn the tables on him, and he'll be the one who's left looking bad."I sniffled, considering her plan. It was risky, bu
