Evan and Nolan nodded. “Yes. We better carry her.” Nolan bent down and lifted her up and Evan bent down to help him. Evan held her legs. Suddenly, Evan seemed as if he was zoning out. He froze in his position when he held her legs. He just sat in his position, staring at the girl, who was slowly regaining her consciousness.
“Come on man. Lift.” Nolan urged as he slipped his hand under her armpits.
“Hands off her!” Evan growled, making Nolan and David look at him surprised. Nolan stepped back and stared at his friend, who was now caressing her tired face. He lovingly tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. David and Nolan looked at each other in confusion.
“Don’t worry my beloved. We have taken care of e
The young lovers sprung apart and looked around to find Kat and Carol walking towards them. David and Nolan were right behind them. Elle started to panic and quickly removed herself from the awkward position she was in. She was blushing profusely when she realised that she was still straddling him when the members of the royal family arrived. And even the crown Princess was with them! Elle bowed her head in courtesy and kept her gaze fixed on her fiddling fingers. This most certainly was not the way she wanted her first meeting with them to be. Kat shook her head. “Pss pss brother. It is a good thing dad and uncle had to talk about some stuff to the guards. So we came in without them.” Kat grinned and Evan groaned. “Otherwise imagine their faces when they see you unable to let her go?” The rest of the gang tried their best to stifle their laughter while Evan
Narrator Days passed by and Elle blended in nicely with the royals. It was as if she was born to be in the palace, but ended up in the wrong place. She narrated how she hated what her family did even during her childhood. She hated that they chose to steal and live their lives like they did. She had always wished for a charming prince who would sweep her off her feet, which literally came true. Evan and Elle yet had to mate and Evan had to mark her. Otherwise the marking won’t be complete. The night Elle was allowed to leave the hospital, she was given a warm welcome at the palace. Everyone was happy and glad to have her in the family. Elle couldn’t contain her happiness. She was never treated like that back in her own home. She had always been the black sheep in the family. She had always voiced her opinions which never tallied with their ways. And h
David pov. I was really happy for Evan. It was great that his beloved was just as nice and kind hearted as he was. They truly were compatible with each other. Carol had started distancing herself from me, which I thought is the best for both of us. But without her to hang out, it was boring. My life at the palace was kind of scheduled. I would have been bored to death if not for Evan and Nolan. I got up one day and walked towards the gate of the palace. It was still day time, so the whole place was practically deserted, except for a few guards who had to guard the palace. It has been a long time since I went out for a run. Perhaps today I should do that. I walked towards the side door since the main gate would be locked at this time of the day and stepped outside. The hot afternoon sun heat
Carol pov. Bolting towards my room, I wished that I had better control over my tongue. I almost told him everything I saw in my dream. Yes it was worrying to see him morph into something else but what happened after and before that must stay a secret. I slammed the door to my room shut and covered my face. My racing heart and uneven breaths didn’t make it any easier for me. Slowly and steadily, I slid down the door, my face still covered with my hands. Angry tears started to spill from my eyes . Clenching my hair in frustration, I screamed in to my knees, as I pressed my face against the fabric of my leggings. Stupid emotions. Stupid feelings. They are now messing up my dreams. I never thought that it could happen to me. I never thought I would feel so much for someone before I found my beloved. Why did my life have to be so messed up? I hate it. My mind drifted back t
Carol pov. I trained like I never did and ignored David for most of the time. I hated it. I hated ignoring him. My heart ached but I must force myself to forget these pointless emotions. I just had to. It was a good thing that David had bonded with Nolan and Evan. And I was grateful for Kat and Elle. At least both of us had someone else to hangout with. When it was time for Mrs. Cosmo’s class, David sat in his regular spot while I sat on mine. Kat and the others wouldn’t attend this class. Which meant I didn’t have a choice except to face him. At least Mrs. Cosmo was strict enough to forbid us from engaging with each other in any kind of conversation. Mrs. Cosmo’s dull and monotonous voice made me feel just half-present in the class. The open window where I caught a glimpse of the dreamy night sky was way interesting. How would it feel to stroll outside under the stars
Narrator It was her birth week. The whole palace was preparing for the big day. Everyone in the whole kingdom was excited about it. After all, it is something big when the heir to the throne turns eighteen. Then, some of the royal duties and secrets will be shared with her. She will be slowly taking over the throne and by the time she turns 20, she would be ready to be crowned as queen. The other thing is, she will be hopefully finding a loved one, which is a big deal for them. The whole kingdom was preparing for that. Everyone was trying to do something and be part of the huge day. Well, everyone except Carol. She wished she could make the time stop. She hoped that she could plead with her dad so that she could skip the ceremony and choose not to find her destined mate. She was not ready to find him. She didn’t want to be prepared. She wanted to be able to choose. But she k
David pov. “Mate!!! Mate!!!” Finn kept chanting in my mind. “She is our mate!” his words repeated in my mind. What in the world..... She smiled at me and averted her gaze, as if nothing had happened. She smiled at the gathered crowd, which consisted of several unmated young vampires. Of course she wouldn’t feel the bond like this. She would only realise the bond by touch. Finn growled possessively. “Grab her. Claim her. She is ours. Those unmated vampires are ogling her. I want to pluck their eyes off their sockets!!!” he kept growling, baring his teeth. He was right. Many males present in the gathering were gawking at their princess. How dare they? They have no right to look at her like that. She is their princess, th
David pov “Mate....” she whispered back and visibly leaned into my touch, her lips slowly curving into a sweet smile. The wonderful sparks of the mate bond erupted upon our skin contacting and I couldn’t stop myself from grinning at her. Her enchanting smile was a constant on her rouge lips, and my heart which was rapidly beating the whole time, suddenly melted away. Finn was bouncing in joy and punching his fist in the air, elevated that his mate had accepted him. “David? It was you the whole time?” she asked, in a hushed tone. Maintaining eye contact, she placed her soft hands on mine which was still on her cheeks. My thumbs traced her full lips, which I suddenly found very interesting. “What is the meaning of this?” the king’s voice boomed across the hall, echoing and taking me o
