“I think I only started feeling at home after the kids were toddlers!” Dowager Queen Louisa commented, frowning for a moment before all of them burst out laughing.

“How do all of you do it?” I frowned, and they looked at me for a moment before looking at each other.

“Do what, honey?” Princess Helena smiled.

“This.” I waved at all of us walking together arm in arm. “How do you live together, work together and also have your parents around while your children take over the castle?” My question had them crying with laughter at first, but when they figured out that I really wanted to know, they became more serious.

“Honestly?” Princess Helena scrunched up her nose a little and I could see the clear resemblance between her and her son. Bernard did the same thing when he was thinking! “It all just kind of happened, I guess.” She shrugged. “We all just sort of moved in together as time went by and nobody ever moved out. Only my parents did. I think they never really liked living in the

    AroraHis lips touched mine and my body instantly reacted. Traitor! His lips were soft and warm in the cold night air. His hands slipped down my back and pressed my body closer to his as soon as they reached my lower back. My arms circled around his neck and my fingers intertwined into his hair.His hair was softer than I thought it would be, and I realized it felt as though this wasn’t me, but at the same time, I was kissing Prince Bernard. He nipped my bottom lip softly, and I pulled away so fast that I not only shocked him, but myself as well.I turned to run, but he gripped my wrist and pulled me in with such force that I landed up against his chest. My breathing was ragged and my heart racing as I looked from his eyes to his full lips and back to his eyes. This time, when his lips touched mine, I wanted it even more.I wanted him. The images that flooded my mind while I was in heat flooded through my mind again, and I felt all of my resistance instantly crumble. When he nipped my

    AroraChaos erupted a second time and Bernard silenced everyone again, so he could explain a little better. I watched his family closely as he explained and noted how their worry slowly turned into relief. Especially when he told them it would stop my heat. I had heard the stories of what happened, and I was kind of glad I was zoned out. I never imagined it could get that bad!“Arora, we have yet to hear what you think about all of this.” Queen Emily turned to me and I smiled.“At first, I thought it was just Bernard’s way of trying to get me to accept him, but I’ve read some of the research and if he believes this will work …” I looked at him knowing the impact my words were going to have. “I trust him.” I shrugged. It was as if someone had taken ice-cold water and thrown it over all of them. They sat there just staring at us blankly.“If it is permanent, well then I guess …” I hesitated. “We will be permanent.” I looked at Bernard, who was beaming before he pulled me under his arm.

    AroraAfter a lovely evening, it was strange to walk down the passage and stop in front of my room knowing I was marked, but we wouldn’t be sleeping in the same bed.“This is weird. It’s weird, isn’t it?” Bernard blushed bright red as he pushed his hands deep into his pockets.“It’s awkward, yes. It’s not what I envisioned. Not that I thought about us.” I quickly added, seeing the hurt in his eyes and sighed feeling guilty instantly. “Bernard, I haven’t rejected you because I wasn’t sure about my future. Which is the same reason I didn’t accept you either.”“You don’t have to explain. I understand. I just wish things were different.” He opened his mouth as though he was about to say something but closed it again.“Thank you for doing this for me, and I know you had something to do with the house, so thank you for that as well.” I tried to fill the awkward silence which had suddenly appeared. I had so many reasons why I should have rejected him before, but suddenly they all seemed so s

    Bernard“I have to admit, I’m impressed. Not just by the workmanship, but that they were able to restore so much of it so fast and so close to the original. I mean even the small patterns on the wall in the foyer have been completely restored. It’s incredible.” She smiled brightly, and I noted that her eyes were sparkling. I hadn’t been imagining it.“Would you like to do something with me tonight?” I wasn’t entirely sure how I would pull it off in the winter time, but I hoped I could. I had been wanting to do something special for her, but I didn’t know what until right then.“I would like that. What did you have in mind?” She frowned, but her smile was still there.“It’s a surprise.”AroraAll he told me was to make sure I dressed warmly and that he would meet me before dinner. I felt excitement start to rise as I made my way to the library. Bernard wasn’t there, and I spent a couple of minutes talking to his family before he appeared looking like a kid at Yule.“Sorry family, but I

    Arora“And let me guess. If we wear disguises, they will still recognize us.” Bernard leaned back.“If you do it the way you guys always enter town, then yes. You need to blend in. You need to wear normal poor people's clothes and not bundle up the way you lot always do. If people don’t expect you there, and you look just like them, they will go about their normal lives. They won’t have a reason to look out for you.” I shrugged and he nodded.“Okay, so what you are saying is I shouldn’t invite the entire family. Maybe just the ones who cling to the purse strings?” He frowned and I nodded. “We have some shopping to do in the morning.” He laughed and I rolled my eyes but smiled. I knew what he meant. His family didn’t have normal poor people's clothes.The same way, I didn’t have anything expensive to wear when we first arrived. After our perfect evening, we joined his family for drinks in the library and he explained his plan. They all seemed eager to help. It was simply astonishing th

    AroraIt was a little overwhelming to realize, and I had trouble focusing on dinner. By the time we were all making our way to the dining room, I was so nervous that I felt nauseous. I was fidgeting and I never fidgeted.“Are you okay?” Bernard frowned when he handed me my drink and my hand shook.“I’m fine.” I tried to smile, but he frowned, and I had to laugh. “I’m fine. I promise.” This time my voice sounded sincere, and he let it go. “Can we go into town tomorrow? I want to see what happened?” I didn’t intend for everyone to hear me, but they did, and all eyes turned to me.“Would it be okay if we did?” Bernard looked excited, and I could see his excitement reflecting in the eyes of his entire family when I nodded.“The people need to know that you noticed their suffering. I think if we went it would be a good thing. Just … Leave all the pomp and parade at home. Take a walk through the streets the way we did a couple of days ago. Speak to the people and get to know them again. Ask

  • Revenge of the Rogue Queen   Chapter 113 - A playful afternoon.

    AroraI purposefully avoided the tavern on our last trip to town because I was afraid of the reaction the royals would have. The one place that was the center of the pack’s joy for so long had become the place where they came when there was nothing else left.It was an awful sight and I could see the pure disgust on their faces as soon as they walked in. I needed them to see what their actions or lack of actions had done to their people, and it had the effect I had hoped at the right time.Noah was the first to order a beer, which drew the attention of all the people. He ordered a round for everyone, which had them all in high spirits in the blink of an eye and once everyone had a beer in hand, he announced the first barbecue. Sadly, he didn’t get the exciting response I had been hoping for.We spent some time talking to some of the patrons and I could see by the time we left that the royal family’s mood was kind of dark. Some of the stories were pretty depressing.“How were we so bli

She was the entire package and from what I had found out about her, she didn’t even realize it.The moon goddess had sent me the most precious mate that ever existed and I would never say it out loud, but she would have been an incredible queen. Emily was the warrior but Arora just understood the people.I was head over heels in love with her and I could see that my family had completely been won over. Even my mother was skeptical in the beginning. Arora’s pure heart was shining through our kingdom, healing it wherever the rays of light touched.“What?” She scrunched up her nose while smiling, and I just melted.“What? What?” I grinned, making her laugh.“Why are you looking at me like that?” She handed out hot chocolate to some of the kids while I helped and I sighed deeply.“I know this is going to sound really corny, but I’ve just been think

    EmilyI pushed to break through a mind link and I finally felt it releasing. He was one of us.“My apologies, your majesty. I have been gone for so long, it is difficult to open my pack link.” He finally answered through the link and I studied him carefully before ordering the guards to stand down.“Who are you and why have you been gone for so long?” I frowned. I couldn’t remember any of our spies being out in the world. Everyone had returned home for the celebration.“I’m Ares, your majesty. I was sent out by your father three years ago to try and find you a mate.” His cheeks turned red and I rolled my eyes. “I guess I know now why I couldn’t find one.”AroraThe news about Emily’s mate spread like wildfire through the kingdom, and before she even walked through the doors with Ares, we knew she had met him. Ares was one of Bernard’s young recruits that should have formed part of the queen’s guard, but Bernard sent him out to try and find a mate for our daughter.We hadn’t heard from

    AroraI kept my promise. The day that Bernard and I retired from royal life and handed over the reigns to our daughter Emily was the proudest day of our lives. She had grown into one of the kindest people I had ever known, while at the same time standing her ground when it was needed.She was strong and brave even though she had not faced a war. She was ready to rule, and the people were ready for her to take over. Emily was much loved by our people as she had grown up in the streets of the city and knew most of them by name.She took all the lessons I taught her over the years to heart and made sure that the people were taken care of long before she became queen. I could hear the rumours again of how much she reminded the people of the old rogue queen, and it made me feel proud that the pack loved her that much.Sadly, new rumours were starting to flare up all over the city, and they unsettled us a little. Emily was old enough now to mate, but unlike most of the royals, she didn’t fi

    AroraForgiving the royal family a second time was probably one of the toughest things I ever had to do, but I knew that if I didn’t, there would be no end to the cruelty that would definitely follow. I had preached forgiveness before everything happened, and this gave me the opportunity to again remind people how to forgive.I made sure they saw me happily interacting with the royal family at each event and I made sure the royals that remained spent time with the people. The kingdom grew prosperous again under Bernard’s rule, and with my help, the people became happy again. We announced my pregnancy soon after I passed the second month mark, and very soon after that, I began to show.The royal baby grew fast in my belly as time slowly ticked by. I spent my days in the old queen’s vegetable gardens and tending to the flower gardens as much as my body would allow. I joined the omegas to do the shopping for the castle and made sure I knew what every one of our supplier’s problems were,

  • Revenge of the Rogue Queen   Chapter 133 - Some hope ...

    AroraMy omegas helped me to get dressed early the next morning. Having a warm and comfortable bed to sleep in and proper food to fill my belly, helped me to at least get some sleep. I was sure that the news about my release had already spread through the kingdom and was surprised when I walked into the dining room and saw the faces of the royals.Most of them were covered in shame as they should be, but I held my head high and took my seat beside Bernard. After the omega left the night before, Bernard told me everything that happened. He told me how he tried to find evidence against Irina and that he only believed her for a short while. It hurt to think that he had so little trust in me, but I pushed it to the back of my mind.None of them were to blame for any of this. Irina was the one who was to blame. She was the one who was going to face trial now and, thanks to Bernard’s genius plan, they had more than enough evidence to sentence Irina without spending much time on a trial.“Ar

    AroraBernard took his time. He even postponed the trial for two days so they could find a witch to explain what each item in their mound of evidence was used for. My only glimmer of light was seeing Irina losing her patience the longer Bernard postponed the inevitable. It was clear as day from the looks I was getting in court. All the nobles believed that I was guilty.Bernard was digging deeper into the hole with each move. I didn’t have any hope that they were going to save me. Even with the visits from Bernard and his mother. I don’t trust them anymore. My fate was sealed. Now he just had to make the final decision. He had to judge me. He had to decide how and when I would be killed.IrinaThe glass flew through the air and shattered against the wall as I screamed out in frustration. My cousin was just postponing the inevitable in the hopes that I would slip up. I noticed he now had four guards following my every move. I couldn’t even use the secret passages without having them po

    AroraPrincess Helena snuck into the dungeons to see me, and she brought me some food, but I was still so cold that I was having trouble moving. I also wasn’t sure if I could trust the food they were giving me. If they saw me as a traitor, they could very well try to poison me. My trust in all of them had been shattered, and I wasn’t sure if it would ever be possible to repair it.I had been waiting for this shoe to drop since the very moment I found out Bernard was my mate. Almost as though I knew they would just turn around and betray me, but I started to trust them and believe that they would trust me. I couldn’t help the way I was feeling. They all turned on me so fast after seeing all those things in Irina’s little secret room.Nobody believed me. It was as though none of them really knew me at all. Why would I ever trust any of them again? Bernard’s face came to mind and I felt my heartache. He should have believed me right from the start. He should have trusted me. He should ha

    AroraIt wasn’t as cold on the cot as it was on the floor, but the night was long, and it still felt like the cold had found its way into my bones. I had no idea what was going on upstairs and, if I was honest, I didn’t care. They were so eager to believe Irina that they didn’t see how cruel she was.They all deserved whatever she had planned for them. I knew she made sure the proof pointed to me, but I couldn’t help myself. They should all have known by now that I wouldn’t have done that. Yet, even Bernard believed I was the traitor. I wasn’t sure if we would ever be able to find our way back to each other after all of this.The memory of Bernard visiting me and whispering came to mind and I pushed it to the back of my mind. I didn’t dare hope that things would work out in the end. Irina had been far too clever so far. She was going to make sure Bernard wouldn’t be able to prove my innocence. She was going to make sure the entire family believed her lies.The cold pushed through my t

    BernardNone of this made any sense. Unless I didn’t know Arora as well as I thought I did, but I couldn’t imagine her doing the kinds of things Irina had accused her of. We found notes in the room that referred to even worse actions and I didn’t want to even think about it.I was torn between what I thought I knew and what possibilities there were. Was Arora a cruel and evil person who took revenge on our family or was she the kind heart that helped us to save our family from total ruin? Not that I thought the pack would ever revolt against us.I sat back in my office chair, not wanting to go to our room and not wanting to face my family. There were still far too many unanswered questions and I wanted to be able to answer at least some of them when I faced them again. The most prominent would probably be if I was going to put Arora on trial.“What are you doing here alone, cousin?” Irina wondered in my office and I sighed deeply. She was the last person I wanted to deal with right no

    Arora“She planned this.” My voice was soft, but one of two of them heard me. “Irina planned this!” I shouted. “My omega followed her today and found the room. Irina wants all of you to think that I’m the traitor so she can get rid of me. Bernard, you have to believe me.”“His Majesty, don’t have to believe one word that comes out of your traitorous mouth!” Irina shouted from the back. “Your father was a traitor, and so are you!” She hissed and I could feel the atmosphere turning.“We need to hear from the omega, Bernard.” Princess Helena spoke up, and I breathed a sigh of relief. The omega was dragged up the stairs and I could see in her eyes that this wasn’t going to go my way. She kept looking at Irina and I wondered what happened in the short time we were apart. What could Irina have done? She was right there with me the entire time.“Please tell us what happened this morning.” Princess Helena took the lead.“I … Please, don’t make me do this.” The omegas eyes filled with tears as
