Cynthia Langston
Age-21
I ran toward a still lying Aaron and laid the phone on the floor beside me before putting Riley on speaker. I was close to sobbing again but I reigned myself in, I can't do this, I need to control myself. Taking deep breaths and with shaky hands, I went to my mate, my Aaron.
My hands were shaking badly so when I tried to open his eyes, I couldn’t do it. I took the deepest breathe and tried again, this time I was successful. His pupils, they were large. I couldn’t help myself and sob. I picked up the phone again and talked to Riley.
“His- His eyes- I mean pupils are large, Riley, they are fucking large. Please help me. what should I do? Can you come here? Is there any healer here. Please help me.” I cried.
“Calm down Cynthia, please. If you want to help him, first you need to calm down. Look, I think you both were poisoned and, may be your drink had less amount and he was loaded. So to help him,
Cynthia LangstonAge-21He coughs as we broke our embrace. He frowns as he wipes his mouth and finds blood, he looks around and his frown deepens seeing the vomit and blood all around the room. He looks at me in question but I am at a loss for words. My palm is stinging badly. Cutting it twice, it is taking time to heal. He notices my wince and looks at me, examines me. it doesn’t take him long to find my hand.He picks it up, frowning himself, “What happened baby? what’s going on?”Hearing his voice, having the proof he is okay, having the assurance, I sob and hug him tightly. I kiss his forehead and close my eyes and thank the moon goddess.“Aaron, we were poisoned. Oh, Riley. Wait- let me call her.”I look around for my phone and find it lying near the bed. I walk toward it and pick up and dial my sister.“Cynthia, I am already at the healer’s place, don’t worry. We are coming.&
Cynthia LangstonAge-21I rolled my eyes at him, “Yeah, I freaking retched. I am so done though. Never ask me to do that again.”“never.” He agreed and opened his arm for me to come.I smiled and went to him and he took me like a pro. His scent was addicting, I wanted to sleep back but then after what happened when I woke up, I almost felt panic at the thought of sleeping and losing consciousness.I left his embrace and looked at him, “ Are you really okay?”He nodded and ate his soup. Even Aaron looked lost in his thoughts and I could understand. he was feeling bad for not being able to protect me.“It was out of your hand. Stop beating yourself for something you couldn’t have stopped anyway.” I said caressing his face, slowly, trying to comfort him.“It should have not happened. I should have thought this through.”“Hey, you did. You know you did.
I smiled hearing his childhood stories and nodded. Hmm, the myth, is it really that, or is it a reality? The island holds many folklores, many stories of mythical creatures. There is even a tale of the prophecy of the moon goddess marrying into the Royal family to help the Island achieve prosperity that has no bounds. I never believed in these tales but after hearing that man’s scary voice, I might just believe this one mythical creature. Believe that he exists.Ray stops the car outside a small building.“Are you sure?” Ray asked as I inspected the building in front of me.I turned toward him and nodded before asking, “ Are you sure that she leaves here?”Ray nodded back and we both got down and walked toward the building, making our resolves more strong.The building was in bad condition, the paint was falling apart and the gate was not even shut properly. I guess I know now what was the motivation for Cherry.
Cynthia LangstonAge-21The girl whimpered hearing my voice. Her hair were looking dirty and shabby and she sounded lost to the world as she was still asking for my help and shaking her shoulders. Which were tied.“You did this?” I asked Ray who was standing silently behind me.“No.” Was his reply as I decided to help this poor woman.“Its okay.” I said trying to console her when she continued to whimper. Her hands were tightly tied around.As I released her, I saw rope marks around her hand. They were red and bleeding too. I knew by that she had been bound for quite some time.“Who are you? what’s going on?” I asked her, frowning. She was wearing a dirty dress, she even looked unfed.The poor girl looked terrified of her own shadow as she whimpered and replied, “I am- I am Gwen, I don’t know what happened but I was coming back from work one day and suddenly some
Cynthia LangstonAge-21After Gwen went to the washroom and locked herself in, I looked at Ray who simply nodded at me, hew was hesitant but when I raised my eye brow and finally went outside near the door. I looked around the room and went toward the broken window. No one was there except the Ray’s car. I frowned seeing it and hopped, this building had more people living in it. Although the condition of this building spoke otherwise.The whole place could fall any minute yet. No wonder Cherry and her goon chose this place. As I paced around the room, looking for more clues, the clock was ticking. I had my phone with me and it’s silence was a blessing. It meant Aaron haven’t had woken up yet. He was still soundlessly sleeping.I am a heavy sleeper myself so I never know if he wakes up for bathroom breaks or water breaks, I guess I will find it out tonight. If my phone doesn’t ring that means, Aaron didn’t wake up and I could
Cynthia LangstonAge-21My beast increased her senses and saw the snake sharpening his tongue, she instantly knew what he was planning. My beast didn’t like the small space of this room so she only held her breathe and waited for his next move.The snake’s rattling was only increasing but my beast didn’t look there, it was a hypnotising technique and if my mate looked there, she might lose her focus. So instead, she focused on his tongue. The snake might have thought himself to be successful given that my beast was standing still to still. The snake continued its rattle and crawled forward slowly. My beast again held herself still.The snake was now sure, she thought she had my beast, my beast could see the snake smirking in delight, in victory, my beast wanted to snicker but she didn’t because unlike this stupid snake, my beast knew early victories are celebrated by only fools. My beast held herself in position as the snake now sm
Cynthia LangstonAge-21Seeing the increased speed was scarring me bad, shitless. The road was too steep for this kind of speed. He was at 100 by the way it looks. I was shivering seeing his anger and continued speed that’s why I decided to beg, “Aa- Aron, slow down. Please! Please! Slow down, you are scaring me!”Aaron chuckled and put his foot on the accelerator hard, he was behaving like he was possessed, his eyes were dark and had a hollow tint, “How does that feel baby? scaring for your life’s life? Hmmm? Feels not that pretty, does it?”I sobbed and put my hands in my middle, feeling like I was getting separated from my body, I was having an out of body moment, “Aaron stop it! I swear this is not amusing.”“Nothing was Thia! Nothing was!” Aaron snapped again increasing the speed with quite a show.Hearing that nick name from his mouth feels like a slap, I remember he once said
Cynthia LangstonAge-21I went to the bathroom and had the quickest shower in the history possible. I was still shaking by whatever just happened. I didn’t even used a soap. After drying myself and wearing a night suit Riley had packed for me, I finally walked out.Aaron was sitting on the bed, his arms resting on his knees. his face was too calm, too eery. I didn’t even know how to approach him. I was scared for him, scared for us. I have never seen him this angry. I need to know what exactly happened, why is he behaving this way.I walked toward him on silent hesitant steps, he was still looking all dark and gloomy, I don’t even know anymore how to approach him, “Aaron, b- baby. are you all, right?”Aaron covered his face with his large hands and shook his head, and then looked at me with his blood shot eyes, “Cynthia- I don’t know- what- what came over me. I am sorry, really sorry. It just, it was too mu
Cynthia Langston Age- Immortal “Mumma!” a five-year Theo groaned. I smiled and continued to brush my hair while pretending he was not there. “Mumma I am sorry! Please!” Theo said now using his puppy eyes. I was smirking as I gave him my back and continued to brush my hair. “What’s happening?” Aaron asked smiling while coming closer to us. It was Theo who said, “Dad, Mumma won’t talk to me.” Aaron chuckled, “Is that so little prince?” Theo nodded and with his blue eyes glared at me. I was trying so hard to control my laugh but when he pouted, I couldn’t hold it and chuckled, “Fine, I will talk to you but promise me, you will never do that again.” Theo looked thoughtful before replying. Then finally like it suited his royal ways he said carefully, “Okay Mumma! I will not lie to you until it is very necessary.” I gasped and chuckled, “You! Just wait there.”
Cynthia LangstonAge-22As my eyes took in my surroundings, I couldn’t help but cry. I was back too, I had survived.A woman wearing healer’s clothes walked to me and smiled.“You had us scared there for a second My Queen.”“Thank you for saving me.” I said and wipes my eyes.She shook her head, “I wish I could take the credit but we had lost you even before the new prince was born, after loosing you, we were on his case, trying to save him and thankfully we managed but as we removed his umbical cord, it was like he gave you your life back. You were miraculously breathing again.”I couldn’t help but chuckle and nod, “Where is he?”The woman smiled and motioned for me to see outside the door, and then I saw them. Aaron walking inside holding a bundle, a bundle of our joy, our baby, our little one.With a teary smile I said, “Aaron!”
Cynthia Langston Picking up Aaron’s gift I walked toward the terrace and smiled looking at the beautiful arrangements, everything was so beautiful that I couldn’t help but she d a small tear. The happiness was clear on my face as I admired the view, the delicious food. Getting curious I picked up the food and saw it was a mix of Italian and Indian. Italian for me and Indian for Aaron. So sweet of Nora. I poured a glass of juice for me and finally texted Aaron to come on the terrace. As I hear a movement behind me, thinking it was Aaron I turned with a big smile on my face and so much love in my eyes but seeing who it was I gasped and stood up. “M- Maya?” I gasped and held my chair. Maya was looking like a crazy person, her hair were all messy, her dress was in tatters and she only and only had hatred in her eyes for me. “M- Maya please calm down.” I said noticing a knife in her hand. Even her eyes were not focused enoug
I hummed and said, “Anything” At my reply he chuckled and asked me to shift. As we shifted and ran through the forrest and cleared the area, only to stop at the beach, I looked around and shifted to our human form, Frowning I asked Aaron. “Why are we here?” Aaron shifted back and came to stand in front of me, “Will you do me the honours of repeating our vows?” I laughed at his suggestion and laughed like I was thinking it over, finally I hummed forcing Aaron to chuckle and swatt my ass. We both held hands and looked deep into each other’s eyes as we recited our vows, “Oh kind Moon Goddess, today is the day we seek another blessing, today is the chosen day of our union, today we keep you and sun god as our witness and with your auspicious presence we do it, we commit the deed, we seek your blessing and love, for we are to be bound now with each other, for we are to be mated and only live with each other and love one another, thi
Cynthia LangstonI wanted to ask him about Riley but then thought better of it and asked something else I was wondering about.“Nash, I was wondering about my kidnapping! Had you done any investigation over this?”Nash looked uncomfortable at first but then nodded, “No over the table but yes under the table the investigation was still on, even until the day you came.”I frowned, “Under the table? Under whose instruction may I ask?”Nash coughed and said, “King Aaron.”I rolled my eyes at that and nodded, “I need the updates and all the proofs you have gathered so far.”Nash nodded, “We are very close, In fact if you don’t mind, can you answer some of my questions.”I nodded and after that I answer every question Nash asked me.After that day, a weird routine was developed. Aaron suddenly had too much time on his hands. Whether it was for breakf
Cynthia LangstonAaron sneered and growled, “Over my dead body will any one ever touch you! No! Not even over my dead body, as long as my soul is there in this world, only I could touch you, kiss you and fuck you.”At his obscene language, I glared at him and stood up, throwing the napkin on the table, I glared at him and started to leave but before I could do he was ther ein front of me blocking my path.Aaron leaned down and held my jaw, “Say you understand!” He demanded but that Cynthia had died who had done every thing to please him.I wrenched my jaw away from his grip, “Don’t Aaron, don’t forget I am your Queen.”Aaron growled and held my wasit, “You might be the goddess herself, I do not simply care, you are my mate first and no one can take that fact away from me, not even you, so yes Cynthia now tell me, do you understand?”I did not know whether it was right or not but I k
Cynthia LangstonAaron looked very shocked and stunned when I turned toward him.I laughed, “What you thought I wouldn’t know? Like I said, I had saw you Baby.” I said mockingly and shook my head.“What did you think? I wouldn’t know? Sorry to spoil your plans Dear Aaron but I know, boy do I know. When I first found out you were cheating on me with Maya, I should have cut my loses but no, I wanted to talk with you, I still trusted you. I wanted you to give a chance and what did you do? Tried to kill me? Tell me Aaron is my pregnancy this much of a threat for you?”Aaron shook his head and looked insulted, “What are you saying? I cheated on you? Who filled your head with such lies? What is wrong with you? How can you ever think I will kill you! YOU! my mate, the person I breath for.”I scoffed and laughed, “Again, I wish it was someone else who told me this, I would have never trusted them then,
Cynthia LangstonAge – 22“Cynthia?” Mom said and ran to me and hugged me, she was already in sobs and hugged me rather tightly. I did not know how to react, my blood was still pumping with what I have just done.Dad and Riles was behind her and came toward me too. Both were crying too. Finally seeing a genuine reaction, I could not help but cry too.“I am sorry, Mom Dad, Riley, I am so sorry, it all just happened. I did not know how to even reach you guys.”Mom shook her head and wiping her tears she said, “It’s- It is fine honey, youa re alive and alright is all what I needed to see, to hear. You have no idea how guilty we all felt, I could not live with the fact that you were gone. It was too hard.”A guilt so heavy burdened me, I could have told them before I was alive, I could have but things since the moment I have been kidnaped had only spiralled down the wrong way. I do not know if I co
Cynthia LangstonAge -22Aaron frowned, looks like he finally heard what I am trying to say, He shook his head and again came to me, “Cynthia what are you saying? Is every thing okay?”I ignored his weird questions and looked toward the crowd, “I, Cynthia Langston, daughter of Seth Michaels, mate of Aaron K Langston is the rightful heir of this throne and with all of you as my witness, I take my right ful place from this instance.”The crowd went wild, half protested and half rejoiced at the thought of having a commoner as their leader.Questions started getting thrown at me.“How do we know you are saying the truth?”“Is she crazy? Are you crazy Miss Cynthia?”“What is wrong with her?”“I am so glad, I didn’t left this island, finally a commoner will wear the crown.”“I hope she ends the partiality between us and these blue
