Cassi pov "You can't keep him…" This is the meeting that I expected it would eventually happen, the members of the high Court were not placed with me and I was not surprised because they were not really the type of smile with me most of the time initially when they were informed that I had in won the war the hard the cheekiest of smiles as if they had been the one to encourage me in the first place when they have been nothing more than pillars and obstacles that I had to cross. All about the smiles in their faces are immediately evacuated when they found out that I had kept the alpha of the werewolves alive they are probably expecting me to immediately execute him on the spot and initially that was the thought that they were having that I had brought him over here to still have his execution done with their approval but surprisingly enough that was not my plan at all for him and I watched their faces go through different stages of denial until finally the head of the high Court po
Cassi pov As I was stepping out of the hall that the high Court usually summoned me to I was welcomed outside with a disapproving look from my former trainer. His lips were tight and his hands were crossed together as his eyes remained on me until I was finally down the steps and standing next to him. He had come along with me for what reason in particular I was not really sure but I guess it's satisfied a little bit of his anxiety he said that it was possible that they might decide to take my throne for me because of the decision I was making but I assured him that the word documents that were in my side that proves that if I won the war I will be able to keep my throne. Well I have kept my own part of the bargain and brought in a landslide victory, so I did not expect any questions on what else I was going to do. "Queen Cassandra," he called after me as I started heading over to my car, I looked back at him eating plans before returning my eyes back to the car that I was headin
Cassi pov I looked at him with incredulity running through my eyes trying to understand what he just said because it was not making any sense to me at all and I almost laughed if it wasn't for how serious his expression was on his face so I settled comfortably on the bed facing him completely with my entire body and asking him what he meant by that. "I know you are having an affair and I have evidence to back it up…" he said confidently looking back at me with a hurt expression on his face that was still balanced up with determination and stubbornness too I couldn't help but to be amused. I should have told him the truth from that moment but I had to admit to myself that seeing him jealous like this was a guilty pleasure of mine and I wasn't afraid to indulge in it just a little bit. I whipped my hair behind my ear and then asked him to show me the evidence that he was so badly hurt yourself and then he turned around shifting a little bit on the bed and picking up a boxer at the
Cassi pov An entire week had passed ever since the war, and honestly it felt like a dream before it was as if I was sinking into an abyss that will never end but somehow I have been able to dig out of it and find the light the high Court had been put in their Lane and they knew that they were not supposed to mess with me and I was able to get my husband back not only that but the people greatly approved of what I did. I mean they thought that the only reason why I was keeping him was just to embarrass him and to humiliate him as a war price, and if that was enough imagination to keep them sleeping well and waking up well and I was satisfied with that, the details of our relationship did not really matter that much to me and people who think whatever they wanted as long as it didn't change you how we felt about each other. I made sure that the warriors that have gone to war with me regularly war did for everything that they did and for the ones that have died I visited their familie
Cassi pov Since I could not build up the courage to ask him directly I decided that I was going to find an indirect way of getting the truth out of him at this point he would have no reason to lie to me right? I believe that we are past the stages of lies and packing and we could finally be ourselves around each other or at least that's what I was hoping for because if we couldn't even have that then I couldn't imagine us having a future at all. So while we were having breakfast together I decided to pop the question. "I want us to get married again are you in?" He nearly almost choked on his omelette when I said that and the reaction on his face was almost too entertaining to feel regret but I felt so bad and I stood up and patted him on his back so that he could relax a little bit and he looked at me blinking his eyes rapidly as if he was trying to wrap his head around what I just said but I couldn't blame him since it was a lot and I should have probably waited till he didn't h
Alder pov "Are you sure that you really want to go?" Cassi ask me for the millionth time and I told you to have with a smile on my face and assured her that I definitely wanted to come along with her, she seem to be very hesitant about bringing me along to this condolence trip even though she was the one that suggested it in the first place. I guess it was hard to figure out why maybe there was something that was discomforting how about this entire situation but I would have to find out later and that was if she told me if not I feel like I will be mostly left in the dark about everything we both got into the car that was going to take us to the bereaved families and I focused myself on her facial expressions she seem to glance to me from one time to another as if she was trying to catch me off-guard doing something that she did not expect and whenever she was unable to find anything she will look rather disappointed. I wasn't really sure how to really pin it down but it was str
Alder pov The first family did not even want to look at us at all and their doors were locked short we had to wait for sometime before one of them finally came to the front door to answer us and then we soon came in they told us that we had initially not heard the knocking before and generally the mood in the place was very bad. It was like as if I was walking through a cemetery and the mood was just depressing as well, but my wife handled it very well as she interacted with the family and even told a few light-hearted jokes with them this was something that I loved about her a lot despite the fact that she was literally the queen of the entire Kingdom that did not make her to have a big head she still knew her value and they don't allow anyone to trample on her and I'll be same time she didn't see anyone as trash this was something that I should have probably learnt a long time ago and it would have saved me a lot of problems. But then as I was sitting there trying to interact
Cassi pov We were able to visit most of the families that we had planned out that day but I could see that my husband was becoming drained and he seem to be deep in thought as well when I asked him about it as we returned to the car he told me it was nothing to worry about brandishing one of his charming smiles and the fact that he felt he needed me to relax in that moment made me to be even more suspicious but I decided to let it slide since there was no point in stressing it anymore. We were halfway back home when I got a call from my former personal trainer I had not heard from him recently after I had to settle matters with the high Court and then I answered the call and I asked him if there was a problem then with a soft tone he responded to me why he needed a problem to call his friend and he just wants to be checking up on me and how I was doing. "I tried visiting some of the killings…" My heart sank a little bit as I thought about the sadness that was in all of the homes
