ROSHIDA

If 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

    ROSHIDA“If I may ask, what makes you think that you should get the house and the child? To the best of my knowledge, you already have a new wife, a baby on the way and you have the house so why do you still want a child from your last marriage?”The pig couldn’t say a word and he kept stuttering.“My King, the child is mine. I don’t need a reason to want him. This woman has no money and no home. How would she feed him? According to the law, I can take everything away from her as long as I don't want to be married to her anymore. She has no right to anything.:”I hope they could all hear just how ridiculous it was sounding.“So by the time you take the child away from her what do you think will happen to her?Have you thought about that?”He looked at her.“My king, look at her. She’s old, ugly and thin. I don't care about her anymore. She could do what she wants with her life. I just want her to be gone so I can raise my child and live with my family.”I wanted to slap him. So hard.“

    ROSHIDA After the meeting, I had to see the King personally. I stood with my head facing the ground. “I must say, when the issue was reported to me, I was livid. Infact, I was so mad that I thought that at the end of the day, I'd strip you of your title. This has never been done before.” I thought my head was going to be gone too. “You will play a very valid role for your people, Luna. And I can already see that you're going to be not just their leader, but their friend too.” If I was going to be a good leader, then I'll step on toes. A lot of toes. “Thank you, my King. I just did what I thought was right. Thank you for hearing me out. And thank you for helping that woman. She would have had nothing if not for you.” He waved it off.“Oh, it's nothing. I mean, you opened my eyes to see how ridiculous it was that her husband got to laugh last after everything. I'll take a better look at the othe

    VALFRED When I heard that my father’s court was in session, I rolled my eyes. I knew that there was no way that I could miss out on it no matter how much I wanted to. It was always so boring and aggravating. But when I heard that Roshida was involved, I didn't think twice before leaving my mother and rushing all the way there. What is the matter this time? The way she was able to stand up for herself despite being in front of my father and his cabinet made me quite impressed. The fact that she had changed not just one law was a brave move and I knew my father frowned against every form of disrespect and everything that seemed like one was going against him. The way she spoke so proudly, knowing that she had done the right thing got to me and I couldn't bring myself to look away from her. Even when Elder Rossi seemed to frustrate her efforts, she spoke back at him. He was the major reason I hated being in court. He

    ROSHIDA After replying everything to Sophia as it happened, she sat beside me in awe. “Woah, I have to say that you really have some balls. You stood up to the king and his elders?” That man who thought he could make things work out in his favor was going to be my biggest fan, ironically. He was going to make things hard for me now that I was going to be in the legislative council. “Oh, did I add that the King wants me to be a part of the legislative council? I guess something good comes out of trouble.” My mind cast back to the palace and I saw Valfred’s face when I was speaking about Felix. I didn’t get to thank him but I was really grateful for what he did for me. The way he stood up for me like we had spoken about it before, not minding if his father would get mad at him for taking sides. “What did you just say?” I looked at Sophia as I popped a grape in my mouth.“What are you talking about?”

    ROSHIDA I stood in the centre of the room, staring at myself in the mirror as the seamstress moved around me like a merry-go-round, putting pieces of material together and sewing them together. “Do we really have to do this? Can’t you just take my measurements or something?” I’d finally sent the reply back and since there was just a day left, we had to get the dresses ready. It was quite sad that I could not wear my normal black leather outfit. Apparently, everyone had seen me in it. “Isn’t the cleavage a little low? I don’t need men staring down my top. Close it up,I'm uncomfortable.” As if life was against me, Sophia entered the room. “Hold on a minute. What are we closing up?” “The Luna said she didn't want the cleavage to be so low so we’re going to close it up. Although, that will be a very sad thing because I must say you have a pair of very nice breasts.” It was weird to hear that from anyone, esp

    ROSHIDAIf I’d known earlier that my mate would come back with a woman, I would have gone on my knees and begged my mother to make another choice. A little introduction before we get into it. My name is Roshida, the late Alpha's daughter and I'm wolfless. My mother arranged for me to marry a Beta three months ago. I'd married him without a second thought because she wanted me to. It was her dying wish and how could I say no to my mother? I have always trusted her choice. I couldn't exactly say I'd married him because he didn't even attend the ceremony. He'd been called to fight some war and I had to stand there like a fool at the altar, saying my vows into thin air. I didn't know what was more pathetic between that and having to act like I was happy with everything. Now he came back from the battlefield not only with a promotion to be Alpha, but a woman he claimed to be his fated mate. What a joke. It was a hot sunny afternoon in the middle of June when he casually strolle

    ROSHIDAAs I sat in my room that night, I felt like a fool. It was now my room because Felix had come in and said that he was now going to be sleeping with Kelly. Of course, I should have seen that coming. After everything that I'd done for this family, all because I felt that I had a new family. Felix didn't have a lot of money before. He was a Beta with little to nothing going for him so of course, when I married him, it meant that I had to do something for him and his family. I'd started by taking over his mother's medical bills. When he left, she was in dire need to help and I didn't think twice before paying for everything. Now, she's come back to see her in better shape and he didn't even say anything to me. The only thing he could do was bring another woman home with him. I should have seen it coming right from the start. The way he agreed to marry me without knowing anything about me. I didn't want to blame my mother for my present predicament. She had only done what s

    ROSHIDASophia had been with me for so many years. Back home, she'd been my personal maid and she'd proven herself to be my friend and the sister I never had. She was there for me when my father, brothers and mother died, helping me get through the grief I thought would envelope me. That's why I knew I could trust her with everything. “Luna, do you realize what you're saying? Please, don't make harsh decisions in the heat of the moment. They will come back to bite you.” At this point, I didn't care. Felix and his family had gone insane and my parents didn't raise a fool that would sit back and watch as everything was being taken away from her while she did nothing. “Sophia, does this look lIke the face of a woman who cares? What do I have to lose? What? My title? Not exactly. Someone else already has it.”At this point, I didn't care about anything. I didn't care about being married to Felix anymore. The marriage never meant anything to him anyways so why should I be the one figh

    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

    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

    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
