Three hours before I was supposed to meet with the men from yesterday, Sophia told me that I needed to come see something in the throne room and I needed to come now.I left my office, wondering what the urgency of the situation was. Was the King here?But the King wouldn't just show up.As I entered, I met a couple of people I hadn't seen before along with one of the men from yesterday.“What's going on and who are these people?”“Luna, I received information that some of the men from this pack have a plan against you that they intended to carry out last night and my source informed me of their meeting place so along with a few other boys from the pack waited for them at their hideout and apprehended them.”Sophia looked at me and she finally understood my plan..As soon as the men left, I'd asked the guards to secretly send information out to all the men that I'd selected that a plan to kill me wa

VALFRED If I'd known that my mother would react this way, I wouldn't have brought it in front of her. After our last meeting, my father approached me and told me to be the spy tomorrow the Rogues. At first, I thought it was outrageous. Other kingdoms treated their Crown Princes like gems and protected them at every cost. But not my father. If there was a dangerous mission, my father would rather send me than one of his guards. My father and I looked at each other as my mother practically rained down fire and brimstone. “How can you do a thing like this? He's your only child and yet you treat him even less than your subjects?! You want him to be a spy?!” She wasn't letting anyone get a word out. “Why do you hate him so much? Do you want to kill him before he can take over from you?”

ROSHIDA The man hadn't even spent an hour here and I was already dreading my life. I gave Sophia a look. She would pay for making me do this. “As I was saying, I have a lot of land to my name. My army is one of the strongest as well. I'm surprised you say you have not heard of me.” I'm so glad I hadn't heard of him till today. I didn't have the time to hear about such an arrogant man. Ever since we'd sat down at the dinner table, all he'd talked about was his wealth. “I don't put my nose in things that don't concern me. I didn't have any reason to hear about you.” I could see that I hurt his ego but sincerely, I didn't care. I just wanted him to leave. “Well Luna, I'm also a very serious man so I'll get straight to the point and won't waste your time. Back at the meeting, I found you to be a very smart and privileged young lady.

ROSHIDAWhen I got the message that the King wanted to see me, I was scared. The first thing that came to my mind was whether that fat pig had gone to report to him. Even though I hadn't done anything wrong, being summoned by the King especially without being told the reason would send shivers down anybody's spine. Despite the fact that we may have a relationship, that was with my father. He would still put me in my place and punish me when I did something wrong. If he had truly gone to report me, then it meant that I had to prepare my case to be presented to the king too. I knew that a man like that would want to make sure that everything worked in his favor. Thankfully, I had witnesses. “Should I come with you?” No, I didn't think it was necessary this time around. I could handle it myself. “No, I need you to go somewhere else for me.”The meeting was scheduled for noon but I'd left two ho

VALFREDI didn't think she'd agree. She just took over as Luna. And asking her to leave everything and come with me was a little too much to ask. But she agreed. I could see that she didn't do it willingly but with my mother's persistent attitude and my father's convincing one, she didn't have a choice. Moreover, my father made it seem like it was a favor he was asking. Meanwhile, it was an order and no one, especially a Luna or Alpha wouldn't want to be caught disobeying the King. I just didn't expect her to walk out like that. I just stood there with the papers in my hand, wondering if I'd said anything wrong. But I knew it was because of what happened. I couldn't let her hate me. She was my mate and I was meant to make her love me the natural way. If she ended up hating me because of my status, then I was a lost cause. After she left, I went to see my parents. Perhaps I could talk them i

ROSHIDAThese days, everything seems less interesting to me. I couldn't find myself smiling or finding joy in little things. “Are you still like this? You're acting as if the King ahs told you to go back to your marriage with Felix.”If he had said that, I would have killed myself by now. I would do everything to make sure that I didn't go back to him and even after my death, he won't enjoy a single penny from it. “What difference does it make between what he said and that? If I die, my father's lineage will be wiped out and someone else will take over. Someone who's probably not worthy of the throne.” I couldn't imagine it. My father's line dying out, that's why he had four children because he wanted to make sure his line continued at all costs. “But I still don't see any reason why the prince can't go alone. Why can't he go alone? He's no longer a kid. Or is he all talk until it gets to actual missions?”My m

ROSHIDA When I went back to the h Capital, the prince wasn't around so I had to sit and wait for him. I was advised to leave and come back but making the hour there was not exactly my favorite thing to do so I just stayed. My house isn't exactly close to this place and I only make the journey because I have to. This time around, I didn't stay in the waiting room since it wasn't the prince I was here to see. The prince had his own waiting room and I was the only one there. Well, I was the only one there at first before another man walked in. He didn't say a word to me and just went straight to his seat. The maids came in and served him wine while he just sat back and drank like he owned the place. “Is there anything else that you need, sir?” “Not at all, you may leave.” He didn't look like an alpha. I know I

ROSHIDA For some reason, I was having a change of heart. Maybe it was because I had spent less than ten seconds looking at Valfred and more than two minutes talking to him. After hearing the plan yesterday, I figured that it was going to be a lot of work but it'll even be more work for me if I didn't have the slightest interest in it. And I didn't want anything that would stress me in any way. I might as well try to act like I want to do this, maybe I'll hate it less. But just because I was about to go on a suicide mission soon, didn't mean my work load had lessened. I still had a whole lot to do in my pack and in the Fortress. There was paper work to be filled, guards to be trained and a throne to sit on. I still needed to listen to the issues that were brought before me. That alone could take up the entire day. Later that evening, I decided to leave the pack and go to the Fortress. If we were going to need

ROSHIDAIf I wasn’t dead before, I sure as hell would be dead now. I had just talked back to the King and not just that, I’d told him that he was wrong.The King was silent after that and I stared at him square in the eye because despite the fact that I knew that I had done the right thing, it still didn’t stop the fact that I had gone against the King’s laws and I had changed it. Also, he didn’t look very happy about it.It was one of the elders who spoke up instead of the King.“How dare you speak to the King that way? Perhaps you do not know how things are done here as you are a woman. You must never speak to the King in that manner.”What did that have to do with anything?“Perhaps it is you who do not know that the King put me in this position. Am I no longer allowed to plead my case or will I be executed before I am proven guilty?”He opened his mouth to speak but the King raised his hand and stopped him. The court doors opened and Valfred walked through. I forgot that he was a

ROSHIDAI kept looking at my phone to check if he had called me back.I mean, even if he were busy, he should have known that we didn't have a proper conversation and called me back to check what I really wanted.But then again, he didn't owe me anything. After all, Clarissa already said that he was busy.When I learnt that the port where he had work was in Alpha Lucas' pack, I sighed loudly. I didn't want a reason to be here after what happened but then, I had to choose between that and waiting for the Prince to come back when I didn't know when he would come back.So the best thing was just to go to him. I'll tell him how I feel and I'll just leave so I don't embarrass myself. Yes, that's what you're going to do.“Stop thinking and focus on the road.”Clarissa's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I'd forgotten that she had called me earlier and asked about what happened and I told her.“Took you long enough.”That was her response. How could I be the only one to not know that I l

VALFREDReggie and I shared a look.The conversation that had just happened in the last thirty minutes was one I never thought would happen.The car was completely silent and this was the most awkward situation I had ever been in.“So basically, you're telling me that if I dont marry your daughter, you will launch an attack against the Lycan Kingdom?”Alpha Lucas smiled and nodded.“That’s about right. I mean, what's there not to attack? Your father's family has hoarded the monarchy for centuries while my family had to sit on the sidelines and watch. We were not made to be Alphas! We were made to be Kings!”Alpha Lucas' pack was not one of the small ones. As a matter of fact, since he owned the port, it was a huge advantage to him because he was in charge of all the trade that was coming in.But he knew and I knew that that alone wouldn't be able for him to overthrow my father. He had allies, he had help. My main aim was to know who his help was.“You’re not that brave. Tell me, who h

ROSHIDAI sat with my phone in my hand.I didn't know if I should make this call or not. Sophia's words still resonated in my head even after hours had happened and I felt so bad.Now that she had said it, everything that he had done began to make sense. Gosh, how could I be so blind to this?I didn't even know that my thumb has mistakenly made the call that I been thinking about making.“Hello?”I pressed the phone to my ear.“Gosh, I'm so sorry, I had no idea that I made the call already. How're you, Clarissa?”She sighed.“I’m doing okay. How're you?”I didn't know if I should answer that question.“Clarissa, I wanted to ask you something. The day of the Queen's party, when Valfred was talking, your father said that he revoked the Crown because of what happened. What exactly did Valfred say?”“Well, he didn't officially revoke it. He just said it in anger and my father didn't honor it because he knew that Valfred wasn't serious about it. He said that if he can't have you, he'd rath

ROSHIDAThe room was silent.It had been silent since I got back from the coast. I didn't know what was wrong and dhene Sophia had asked me earlier, I didn't know what to say.I'd been doing a lot of thinking, thinking that would allow me to put things in order so that the thoughts going through my head would make sense.“You know, if I didn't know you any better, I would have said that you were pregnant.”I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at her,confused as to where that thought was coming from.“What did you say? Why the hell would that be the first thing that comes to your mind?”She walked over to me, waving at Liam that was in my arms.“Because I believe that is the only thing that you will do that you won't be able to talk to me about. You've been a shadow of yourself for days and I've been asking you what is going on but you don't want to say anything. Have you done something I won't be proud of or what is the matter? You got back from the coast and you've been looking mo

VALFRED“If I feel any bite in my sleep, I assure you that you're going to die.”Reggie had been complaining about the hotel from the minute we stepped out of the car. He didn't like sleeping out and I knew that but it slipped my mind to tell him that it was going to take us at least three days to come back. “Reggie, the reviews say this is the best hotel in the area. I don't know what else to tell you. It does look nice, don't you think?” My optimism was not appreciated and the look he gave me let me know. He went to take a shower while I settled into the desk and began to look through the files. This was not the first time that I would be clearing out weapons but this was the first time I'd be offloading them from the ship. I usually only saw them when they brought them to the house for inspection. At some point, Alpha Lucas was going to hear of my presence even though I didn't want him to. I mean, seeing as our first meeting wasn't exactly one of pleasure,.it is expected that

VALFREDI came back home, just like everyone wanted me to.I wasn't happy about it because I knew that my mother and Clarissa would be in my business and I know that they were just trying to care for me..But I didn't need that right now. All I wanted was to be left alone.I don’t remember the last time I asked my father to give me work but that morning, I walked into my father's office, hoping that he would not be busy.“Good morning, father.”He and Mark looked up at me, obviously not realizing that I was walked in because of how busy they were.”Good morning, Father.”I'd forgotten he didn't know that I was back yet.”Valfred, you're back. Is there a problem?”.Mark stood up immediately.“Your majesty, I'll leave you and the Prince alone.”I didn't speak until I heard the door close behind me..“There is nothing wrong, father. I apologize for.the tone with which I spoke to you that day. I was angry, very angry. Please know that I mean no disrespect to you.”He stood up and walked o

VALFRED“What if I don't want to be a free man?” She turned around to look at me. She looked so exhausted. “What on earth are you talking about? Why wouldn't you want to be a free man to be able to make your own choices?”I don't know if she was doing this on purpose or she truly didn't know how I felt. “Roshida, if I have offended you in any way, I would like to apologize.”“Valfred, what are you talking about? How did you offend me? You haven't done anything wrong. I asked you why you don't want to be a free man.”For the first time in my life, words failed me. I didn't know the way to express what I felt for her. That was because I didn't even understand what I felt. It was enveloping every part of my senses. “Have you ever for one second, seen me as more than the Prince?”She didn't answer immediately. “Where is that question coming from?” “Your answer would let me know how to answer your question.”The fact that she hadn't taken her hand away was hope that she was still he

ROSHIDA“Come in. I hope dad didn't send you.”As we entered the house, I saw Reggie sitting on the couch and he waved to me.The place was actually very beautiful.“Dad didn't send me. I came because someone wanted to talk to you.”Valfred hadn't even turned around for once to see that I was standing in the room.“Who was the person who wanted to speak to me? If it's mum, I'll call her later. You didn't have to come all the way out here. It's too far. And you didn't even tell me you were coming.”What the hell was he doing that he hadn't even turned around for once.Clarissa dropped her bag on the couch.“I’m not the one who wants to speak to you. It's Roshida.”I was expecting him to turn around and then look but he didn't. He did pause though.“What did she say? She's still mad at me. She hasn't responded to my texts. When you went to see her today, did she look like she had been crying?”Clarissa looked at me and I shook my head. If he knew, it would just make him more angry.“No

ROSHIDA“You didn't do anything wrong. I just want to know one thing. What's going on between you and my brother? I mean, what are the both of you doing?”Wy would she think there was something going on? I didn't know. Had Valfred told her anything?I mean, they were siblings. He probably told her about the kisses. All of them.“Why would you ask that? Do you think something is going on or did he tell you something?”I could see her hesitation to answer that question. Looking at her properly, Clarissa is actually very beautiful.She Carrie elegance around with her like a shadow and even the way she talked or gestured, you could just feel she was royalty.“Its not about what he told me. it's about what you feel you are to each other. I'm not blind, Roshida. I can see the way you look at him, the stolen glances, the long stares, the smiles…you can't tell me that there's nothing going on.”Well, I guess I could say that she was smart enough to notice all that.
