~Trixie’s Point of View~
My chat with Brad was just one revelation after another, and I shared a lot of things with him as well. Before I knew it, I was sobbing in his arms over my trust issues with my mates. He had some kind words but no real advice.
I was left to wonder if he just didn’t want to meddle, or he flat out didn’t know what to say. I asked if he would come to the palace once we left camp and he said he would let me know.
I left the medical cabin and just wandered. Oddly enough I found myself on the dock at the lake where Mallory had tried to drown me. Cause to her I was just a stupid Kingdom 10 whore that no one would miss, not even human.
I sat on the edge and took off my shoe
~Trixie’s Point of View~ Obviously it was too soon to know if I was pregnant but I’d seen more than enough pregnant females to know how crazy their hormones get and right now mine were beyond control. I loved them, I hated them. I wanted to love them. I wanted to hate them. The whole flipping family! Ugh! I left the dock and ran toward the field where the helicopter would land. The moment I saw them both jump out, any rational thinking went out the window, down the hill and sank deep into a bottomless pit. My whole body heated up watching Damien’s hair in the wind from the blades moving. Damien was the one closest to me and as if he could sense it … and maybe he could, he took off running toward me. I ran as well until his big arms enveloped me, pulling me close. He wa
~Dawson’s Point of View~ Things finally seemed to be falling into place. Chaos and absolute mayhem had been ruling me for the past two days and it had to stop. I needed order, I needed structure or I was going to have a psychotic break. I didn’t do well when I wasn’t the one in control. Surely planning a wedding, and a coronation would put things back on track. I liked planning, because it means no surprises. It will be done as I see fit. I liked to know all the elements that went into pulling off an event and seeing it come to fruition. I set up a command center in the medical building since it wasn’t used very much. There was an area around the lake being set up for reporters to come in, where we would make our announcements and they could ask Trixie and Jeanet
~Jeanette’s Point of View~ I ran away from the stupid faced prince that thought too much of himself. I pitied Trixie immensely, as if she didn’t have enough on her plate she had to deal with that egotistical sack of crap. How could she stand him?! *Let’s run it off,* Hannah said, and I nodded. That was the ticket. I made my way to the far side of the lake and I saw dozens of press setting up cameras. They weren’t gonna pressure me into anything. I hadn’t even talked to my mama yet! I found a big tree and stripped then Hannah took over. I tried like all heck to be quiet so nobody would know what I was doing. I needed to think and that wasn’t going
~Trixie’s Point of View~ “Thank you all for coming and joining us today. We couldn’t be more proud to formally announce that both Prince Dawson and Prince Damien have found a true fated mate. And actually their mate is the same female. You know her as the golden wolf, but now she is also Princess Beatrix,” the Queen said, applauding. I stood between my mates and took their hands, giving a small nod and smile. I blushed, hating the attention. This thing had just started and I already wished it was over with. The crowd looked shocked and I could tell many were dying to shout out questions. “I know the burning question many of you have is why didn’t we announce this when Trixie was in the news before? Well there are many reasons for that, things were still very new to us
~Draven’s Point of View~ My whole life I felt like no one saw me, no one gave a damn what I did. I’d never be king so there was no point in teaching me, even really watching me . My accomplishments, my gains … all for nothing if no one saw them. Sometimes Damien would come to my basketball games, cheer me on. I’d feel so powerful when I had an audience, important and needed. In the palace I was just a fly on the wall, someone who was summoned for family photos and big announcements. No one ever asked, “Draven what do you think about… What would you do in this instance…” No, it was all for Dawson, everything. I resented him for so long, he was perfect and there was absolutely no measuring up to him. There was no possible way to be as great and flawless. Get the hi
~Trixie’s Point of View~ “You’re not being left alone with her,” Dawson said, matter of fact. He was being unreasonable. What else was new. “The last time I was alone with her, the goddess showed me a bit more and it was helpful in nailing her,” I insisted. Any chance I had to trigger a vision I was absolutely going to take. There was too much on the line. I was beginning to feel like my mates were afraid of my gift. At first it was fun, seeing Victoria’s future and giving a happy couple good news. But what happens when the visions are not always pleasant, when they get a bit too real? When they show the completely awful side of humanity? They tho
~Trixie’s Point of View~ I kept walking. I very well heard Sally’s words. I couldn’t let her know they affected me. I could never give her that, even if I was crushed. My mom. The princes. She told them my mom was alive and she knew this whole time? They’ve known … for how long? I kept walking down the long hallway until I reached the guard’s office and I threw myself inside. The man looked at me confused but I couldn’t speak. “Would you please give us a few minutes,” Draven said, trying to dismiss him. “Sure, take your
~Damien’s Point of View~We’d had our most trusted guards and investigators raid not only Sally’s hotel room but her house and her boyfriend’s house. The sheer volume of her ‘excellent record keeping’ would have us buried in paperwork for months. When we realized what we were up against, we put together a team of five people to work on nothing but her records.I wanted to know every child that came and went from her house and what happened to them. There were just so many, I’d never had a clue as to how many orphans there truly were in all the kingdoms. And I’d certainly never given much thought as to what happened to them. What kind of lives they led. This wasn’t some pet project, this was my mission. We couldn’t let this continue. Child slavery right under our noses &helli
