ROSHIDA

By the time I got to bed, the prince was asleep.

Or so I thought. His back was turned to me and his shoulders were rising and falling steadily. Also, he was quiet. Very quiet.

As I got into bed, he turned around to look at me and I froze, waiting for him to do something, thinking he would do something but he just fully turned around and moved further into the bed.

Then he stretched his hand out, waiting for me to lay in it.

I don't know it was today of all days that I was very cautious of what was going on. Or maybe it was because there was light here so i could basically see everything.

I laid down on him and I noticed I was tense.

Why was I tense? What the hell was wrong with me? Why was I acting like this?

“Are you okay?”

I didn't hear his question at first. Actually, I did but I thought he was speaking to someone else. I don't know why.

“Roshida, are you okay?”

I nodded.

“Oh yes, of course. I'm fine. Im okay..just had some things on my mind.”

There was silence after that a

    ROSHIDAWe have him the report of everything that had happened, leaving nothing out because we had to to tell him everything even if we didn't want to.“So you weren't able to find out who they were answering to?”“No but all we know is that they call him master.”That was a very vague description but for now, it was the best we had.“Luna, do you have anyone in mind that you think it could be?”I was surprised when he asked me that. I mean, what do I know? I was just initiated as a Luna and I hadn't even had my coronation ceremony yet.I knew little to nothing about what happened in this kingdom so I didn't know any Alphas except the ones who made it a point to get known by me.“No, my King but I think we still have a very good chance of knowing who it is.”He nodded and stayed silent for a while. I event though he had fallen asleep with the way he was just staring in one spot and not saying anything.I quickly looked at Valfred to see if we were thinking the same thing but I couldn'

    ROSHIDAI just stayed there and looked at her like I didn't know what she was talking about.“My Queen, I don't know what you're talking about. The Prince is just my Prince as he is every one else's. There's is nothing going on between us.”I knew what she was talking about but the best thing to do is to always act like you didn't.She gave me a look.“Maybe I should refresh your memory. I saw him coming out of your room this morning. What do you have to say about that?”Why did she think something would be going on between the both of us?“That was nothing. He was just helping me out with a few things.”She had a smile on her face.“A few things? And it lasted through the night?”I don't know why the hell I was dragging this out. I should just tell her the truth.“That’s not it, My Queen-”“Oh, you don't have to be shy. If there is something going on between the both of you, then it just made things a whole lot easier because even if nothing was happening, I was going to ask the Prin

    VALFRED My father and I left the courtroom because now, we were having a conversation. We walked far away into the house, away from where normal people walked by. “What’s going on, Father? I know something has been bothering you for a while. What is it?” He took a whole before answering. “I think that there is a mole in my court. I no longer get the sense of security I once had while speaking to them. The enemy has made its way into my court.” I knew that my father's intuition was never wrong and when he said that there was something wrong, then there was definitely something wrong. “Do you have any suspects?” “No, not at all. None of them have done anything that would stand out to me but I'm hoping that they will slip up soon.” A mole is one of the worst things that could happen to us because it meant that we had an enemy and we didn't even know who it was. “Is there anything I

    ROSHIDA “You want to go back there? I mean, when? When are we leaving?” The king cleared his throat and I looked at him. “Well, my son thinks that you will be interested in going back there. I felt I should hear it from myself. Would you want to go back there with him? I mean, you suffered a great ordeal.” Screw my ordeal. We needed to catch those bastards and bring them down once and for all. “My King, I appreciate your concern for me but that is exactly the reason why I would like to go back there and deal with them. It's only fair that I finish what I started with the prince. We don't mind leading the army back.” I would actually be very mad if I didn't get the chance to go back there. I mean, I should. “Very well then, you will both lead the army to the Rogues. I trust that you will bring Victory to us. That is without a doubt. Valfred will beingt be army together and you will leave at sunrise tomorrow. Is th

    VALFRED I turned to her, clearly annoyed that she was standing behind me when she could see that I was speaking to someone. “Do you need something?” “No, I just wanted to ask why the King called for Roshida. I mean, she was with the Queen first and now, the King.” I didn't even understand what she was saying so I just looked at her like she had lost it. “What on earth are you talking about? I don't have the time for this.” I turned back to the maid and finished telling her what I wanted. “Sonia, I don't know what to tell you. He wanted to see her and that's why he called for her. Instead of worrying about that, why don't you worry about the fact that we're going back there to rescue your people?” Maybe I shouldn't have told her that. She grabbed my hand to stop me from walking. “Really? You're going back tomorrow? Can I go with you? Please?” “No, you can not. You'll just be

    ROSHIDA I didn't expect him to ask me about my clothes. Normally if I were alone, I would have slept in a towel or just nothing. But since that wasn't the case, I had to cover up. He left the room after I told him I didn't have anything else to sleep in and came back almost immediately with a big top. “You can wear this. It's new.” I didn't even argue because I knew that sleeping in this combat clothes was enough to give me a nightmare. So I took it immediately and went to the bathroom. It was so breezy and free. But then when I looked at myself some more in the mirror, I noticed that my thighs were in display. The shirt fell down to my midnight and left everything else on display. I didn't think that was right. Maybe I should wear my trousers but it was leather and it would be so uncomfortable. “Does it fit well?” My eyes widened. Hell, I didn't know he

    ROSHIDA It was silent. The only sound that couldn't be heard was the twigs snapping underneath our feet and the trees rustling as the sun began to rise over ethe horizon, giving us illumination and making our journey easier. Now that it was day, it was way to walk freely while seeing our feet and scout the area as well. We had officially been moving for four hours and I felt completely alert. “Are you good?” Valfred whispered to me, snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked at him.“Of course. Why do you ask?” ”You're oddly quiet.” He had been talking to the Beta for quiet a while and.sinceni could t hear what they were saying, I tuned the conversation out of my head. “You seemed busy, I didn't want to disturb you.” He laughed.“You’re not disturbing me. What would make you think that?” I shrugged, while trying to remove a stupid twig from my boots. “I don't kno

    ROSHIDA “He seemed like a good man.” I agreed. He was. Those little notes were always my confidence boost after a long day's work and I kept all of them in a little box so that I would always be able to go back and read them. “After I was done with combat school, I came back to the house and that's when I had a chance to get to know my brothers. They seemed like strangers at first because they were all so big and muscular and they didn't know what to do with me. They felt like they'd hurt me.” I remember my mother always telling me to come out of the room and stay with my brothers because I needed to know them. I always got the feeling like I was out of place. “You easily feel out of place, don't you?” His question shocked me and I couldn't even hide it. I just stared at him as he asked me that. “How…I mean, what makes you say that?” He smiled a little, whispered something to h

    ROSHIDAI didn't look back until I got home. There was nothing to look back to. All I could see were faces of liars. I stormed right into the house, not even sitting for either of them to catch up with me. Ss soon as I entered the living room, I asked where everyone was and the guards took me to where they were. Why were they locked in a room? I wanted to ask but the way the Queen ran to me and grabbed me like I was a thief, pulling me closer to her threw me off balance. “You’re okay! Oh gosh! Where were you? What happened? We were all so worried, did they take you anywhere? Are you hurt?” Without first answering, I went to pick Liam up. He was crying in the corner and I'm sure it was because of all the pandemonium. “I wasn't taken. No one kidnapped me, I'm fine.”Valfred and Reggie joined us in the room and their faces looked looked like they had just found my dead body. “What is going on? You found Roshida so what's the matter? Why do you guys look that way?” I wonder if the

    VALFRED“Are you sure you even know where we're going or are we about to get kidnapped too?”I didn't bother turning around to look at him because I didn't have anything to tell him. There was no time to be wasted and we needed to hurry up so we can get to her as fast as possible.“I won't lie, I actually don't know where we're going. I've never been here before and I can't track down her scent. I am picking up another scent though but-”“Shut up and stay down.”I turned around to look at him, hoping that he had not gone mad.“What are you on? Let's keep moving-”“Shut up! I saw something move in the trees. Get down.”I finally listened to his instructions and got down, holding my breath to see what he saw.After a while, I saw the movements a few yards from us, it was slow but steady.“Who do you think it is?”The silhouette of the figure was obviously a woman but we didn't want to take our chances so we didn't make a move.“Do you think it's her? I'm blind as a bat in these woods.”

    ROSHIDA“Where did you say you saw the King? I think we've walked far enough.”I turned around to look but there was nothing to see. As far as my eyes could see, there were just trees. Gosh, how did I not realise how far I was walking?The girl turned around.“Just a little bit further. It's down here.”I should have let those guards follow me, they would be looking everywhere for me. I just hope that they don't start worrying.I'd been so angry at Valfred that I stormed off to the car to cool off. How could he not have told me all this while we were friends that he'd been the one that I'd helped all those years ago?I wouldn't have been mad at him or anything, he should have just told me. I came down from the act, remembering that I still had to show my face at the party.That was when this young girl.ran up to me and told.me that the King had been seen in the woods and they sent her to call me.“Um, now that I think about it, don't worry. I'll go back now and call his guards. They w

    VALFREDRoshida was.missing.I sent the guards to look for my father and tell him what was going on and bring him back to the car so we could take him back home.I didn't want to take any chances. She couldn't just disappear into thin air.My dad came into the car to meet me.“Valfred, the guards said you were looking for Roshida. Where is she?”I told him everything that happened.“I want to go into the woods to look for her. I mean, I don't know what she went in there to do and she knows better but I'm sure I'll be able to find her if I go looking for her. I just wanted to let you know before I go.”“It’s her coronation day. If the enemies made it into her pack to get her, then that means they have her. I can't let you go out there alone. They might come for you. Take all the guards with you. I'll find my way home.”I know that Roshida has been a target to many since my father gave her the Blue Ridge Fortress and at some point, I even asked my father to take it away from her becaus

    VALFREDShe perked up with a frown.“Really? Military school? What class?”.It wasn't very hard for.me to remember. Those years of my life were the worst.“Sir Red's Class. To make matters worse, my father made sure to hide that I was his son so I could blend right in. That didn't work out very well. I was bullied out of school.”Thinking back now, it didn't hurt anymore but I just wish that I could tell the young me that I wouldn't die if I had just stood up for myself.“What year did you graduate?”I looked back at her.“I never did. I just left. I told you, I was bullied right out.”She had a weird look on her face and I wondered what was wrong.“Valfred, I think we were in the same class. You're the boy I saved that day…the boy that left and I never saw again.”From the first day she said that story, I could already tell that I was the boy but we were on a mission and I didn't want to disrupt that with all that. So I kept mute. I guess it's a good thing it came up now.“Took you l

    ROSHIDAAfter missing more than half the dinner, the King decided that he wanted to go into the pack. We were all sure that it was because of the candy floss and sweet shops.“Honey, how can you say that? I mean, I just want to see the people. Roshida just became Luna, we should go say hi to them, don't you think ?”He looked at me like he dared me to say no.”You’re right, My King. We should go say hi.”I actually didn't want to go to the pack even though it was tradition that I was supposed to bow to the people just after my swearing in.But I was tired and so not in the mood. I just wanted to go to my room and go to sleep.These days, my sleeping routine was getting better because I was going through enough stress to last a life time so my body was as tired as it could be.So I didn't even have to ask for slept before it came. Infact, the hours weren't even enough anymore.“You see, she agrees with me? Do you want to come with me?”The Queen gave him a dirty look.“And miss out on

    ROSHIDAHe followed me down the stairs, holding Liam who seemed more interested in him than me.The way Sophia kept smiling at me like I was a bride coming down the stairs and she was my husband waiting for me.“Oooh, you look so good. Come on, let's go, the King is waiting for you.”The instatement was taking place in the garden. It was a close ceremony because I really didn't want a lot of people. Then, the people had the freedom to continue their party afterwards.The Elders and most of the people in government were present and at that moment, I wished my family were present to see this day.But then if they were, my brother would be the one taking the crown and not me.The King was standing up front and Sophia walked behind me since she was my Beta. She had to be sworn in too.The sun was not too hot and I was so happy because I hated the heat. It would have been a very bad day because I would have to smile and act like everything is fine.And I didn't want to do that.I bowed as

    ROSHIDANow, I was convinced that I was working with very devious people.Whenever Valfred and Sophia were involved in something, I might as well know that I didn't have a team and I was going to be left out of a whole lot.Add the Queen and King into that mix and they were an army.And the sad part was my sweet little Liam was now a part of them. What was I going to do now?By the time I would wake up, it was almost noon and all I had to do was go straight into the bathroom and take a shower because the make-up artist and the entire team were already present for the makeover.The fact that the King was already here and I wasn't present to welcome him was one thing I didn't like.“Why is that an issue, Roshida? He knows how exhausted you are and I didn't tell him that you were sleeping. So don't worry, he knows you're on your way.”I couldn't even answer her because I was looking out the window, looking at the decorations outside.That's when it clicked and I turned to look at Sophia.

    ROSHIDA“Sophia, go get the ambulance. I don't know, call someone!”Valfred ran into the room.“Don’t worry. I'll drive to the hospital with him.”I could hear that his cries were getting quieter and it bothered me. The heat that I was feeling before had moved from between my legs to my whole body.What was I going to do if something happened to Liam? What will I say? Why could I not help him when he was going through all this?As Valfred moved to carry Liam from his cot, Sophia stopped him.“Wait, let me see him.”I almost ate her head off.“What the hell do you think you're doing? Let's take him to the hospital!”“No, wait! I think I can help him.”I rushed over to the cot, to see what she was doing. She stood over him, looking at him with her hand over his chest and then she started mumbling somethings to herself and I looked at Valfred to make sure that I wasn't the only one seeing this.All of a sudden, it started seeming like I was the one who couldn't breathe.I could see light
