Alder pov To say that my return was a great shock to my pack was a great understatement. I came with my legs shaking like jelly and I practically collapsed at the front door after I collapsed and had to be rushed over to the pack doctors and immediately treated. By the time I regained consciousness my Beta was next to me and so was my wife, the one that had been forced on me by my pack. Initially I didn't even recognise her at all as my wife it was kind of funny whenever I picture my wife it was Cassi that came to my mind immediately, the image of this woman had completely disappeared which was quite ironic because I had literally spent years married to her and I had spent most of my time with Cassi with her wearing a veil. Naturally everybody was very curious about what had happened to me. The woman that had been married was too busy trying to ask any questions and so it was mostly James that was asking the questions. "We thought that you had died we searched everywhere for y
Alder's pov "I can't understand you anymore! What exactly is wrong with you?" I stared at the woman that I was forced to marry and make my Luna and then I looked at a shattered was that was lying at my feet and the rest of the bedroom that was in a complete disarray and then over to the woman that was forced to marry once again breathing heavily listing that was coming out of her nostrils and years enough to actually steam someone alive. I looked at her and told her that she needed to calm down and that was the final straw for her and she screamed even louder. I had to find my way maneuvering out of the room and locking her inside after which going to look for a doctor that will sedate her so that she will be able to relax and sleep off for the meantime. When everything had happened the doctor looked at me and asked me if something was wrong and I told him that nothing was wrong but that was a weird thing to say with my wife having to sleep on her medication but at the same time
Cassi's pov It was strange watching my entire world fall on me like crumbling walls and yet despite all of this there was nothing I could do to stop everything from happening. My parents were out of my reach and I could not contact them. How could I even disclose the information to them that I was going to be dethroned by the high Court? They have always been so encouraging and kind to me but would this come as a disappointment to them? The only person that I could rely on in this difficult time was my trainer, Hanson. He would help me with the most encouraging smile on his face and I did my best to reciprocate it so that I wouldn't look ungrateful. I wasn't looking forward to seeing him. every time the door opened up and a man was walking through I was hoping that it would be my husband and every single time I was disappointed to the point that I wish that he couldn't even come to see me at all so that I wouldn't have my hopes going high like that. But even with all of th
Cassi pov Now it was not long before I came back by the high Court once again and it was kind of sad the situation which was supposed to be a depressing one was the reason why I was able to keep my throne for a little longer they openly confessed to me that if it wasn't for the crisis that was going on right now they would have immediately removed me since most of the processes were already done and they could have just simply overlooked the rest. The high courts showed that there was so little respect was left for me that all of this was being thrown in my face, but now just because they said I was supposed to take care of the situation did not mean that they wouldn't take an opportunity to run me down again." if you had the King by your side you would have been able to handle the situation better but you have been negligent of your duties and that is not quite responsible of a Queen," I have been doing the duties of a Queen even though I only got a few years to prepare for the
Cassi's pov The killings went on and it almost seemed like it would never end. Two by two my people were plucked everyday like flowers in a garden, except with more brutality in they were killed every day. My own people became so agitated against me to the point that some people make it their duty to barge into the palace almost everyday to blame me and today was no different. I was about to force some breakfast down my throat after being severely scolded by my former trainer that I was not helping the situation by starving myself and that was one of my guys came and the spoon that was in my hand clattered on the ground as I stood up taking quick strides until I made my way outside to the Palace gates. outside of the gates was what could easily be called a small riot people were holding up signs and screaming saying that I was the one that caused all of this if only I had not kidnap my husband and brought him over there none of this would have happened." you are a selfish
Cassi pov As I left the presence of the council my heart was beating so fast you would think that it was being powered by some kind of generator at the moment. But I was glad that I was able to get my point across to them. however it required a little bit of compromise as well because after I had said all I wanted to them the head of the high Court stood and said that he had some things to let out of his mind as well he told me that if by any chance we lost this one then I was going to definitely lose my throne and then I looked at him the strange expression on my face that mostly resemble a smile but then it was like it was about to break into tears at any moment yet trying to maintain its original form at the same time. I told him quite frankly that that wasn't going to happen and after I had taken care of the werewolves I told him that I wanted to keep my position since being able to cater to this kind of crisis by myself doesn't make me a capable leader then what will show
Cassi pov The war was becoming imminent with every moment that pass by because now it was not just something that was being drafted on my study table but a reality that was about to become mine. I was quite surprised that everything was happening so quickly, I had arranged for divisions to be created that would take a new recruits and train them and my former trainer was one of the trainers for the divisions this was to enhance efficiency and to have as many people as possible well equipped for the battle that was about to come and yet I still didn't feel ready. Naturally anyway there were other things that I had already put in place to make everything easier for everyone but I still felt like I wasn't ready I guess I would never really feel like I was ready because this was not a kind of situation that somebody could go in and they would have everything that they needed at hands reach but I had done a lot of research and had asked everyone that could give me any credible informati
Alder pov So the day is finally here? Ever since I received that note from my mate it was almost as if I was living in a sort of a bubble where I had to started directing my people for a fight that I couldn't even understand why it was happening at all. But from the little that I have learnt about Cassandra after being married to her, I was guessing that this was probably retaliation for poisoning her and abandoning her like that I knew that she wasn't going to take it easy but after having several days of rest I thought that maybe she has decided to move on he thought that have seen quite under justable until finally I got the notes from a messenger that she had sent saying that she wanted war. Honestly it was like being jolted out of a dream as my eyes had scrambled through the words and my fingers have sunk to the into the note almost to the point of ripping it apart some of my men have told me to beat up the messenger that came alive one of the most my second-in-command James
