Cynthia Langston
Age-21
The event was well organized. The air was although chill with palpable tension. I could feel disapproving eyes on me. Probably judging me for my dress. Andrea was surprisingly being polite with me now. My eyes were searching for Aaron, my mate.
The sun God was being today extra bright on us. As soon as I entered the main area where sitting arrangements were made, my eyes fell on the snooty face of Sylvia. The Queen Dowager of this island. I wanted to laugh at her glaring but I didn't. The woman was being nice to me since wedding. I still remember her generosity with the Tiara or crown. Whatever this royals called them. I was still looking for Aaron when I saw her. The woman i least expected to see. Maya! My heart instantly went on defense at the sight of her. Mira was here too but my eyes were stuck on her, the woman who had designs on my mate.
Cynthia Langston Age-21 “You are scowling,” Andrea commented as she came by my side. “What is she doing here?” I asked, while grinding my teeth in apparent frustration. Maya is busy talking to Mira. I am guessing she knows that I am here and this over the top happy and friendly act is for my benefit. “Who? Ms. Hart? Gosh! She’s so pretty and put together.” Andrea said as she released a dreamy sigh for my possible biggest enemy. My eyebrows touched my hairline in surprise. I whirled toward this strange woman which has been tailing me since this morning. “Are you kidding me? You have been nothing but rude to me and you like her? Her? Seriously? The next witch of Glass horn, that’s who you like?” Andrea’s face went all red as she stole her eyes and cleared her throat, “You are my job and she’s- she’s just my idol.” “Ouch! That was nice to hear.” I said while feigning hurt over her statement. In reality, I understand Andrea’s admir
Cynthia LangstonAge-21“Oh yeah! I talked to Jeremy. He’s going to pitch the idea to the rest of the team as well.” Aaron replies.Maya gave him her best smile while flicking her heavy and shiny red beautiful hair behind her back. She turned to me and gave me her best smile too, but it was the best fake one. Her eyes were still pretty gloating as she turned to Aaron once again.“Hey, you okay now?” She asked, placing her hand on his hand resting on the table in front of us.I froze as Aaron frowned and looked at me before turning toward Maya, “I am and don’t Maya, just don’t.”“What? I can’t even ask you how you are doing after what happened?” Maya said with a fake hurt look.“Fine, I am fine.” Aaron bit.Maya nodded at him and finally left, understanding that Aaron is not going to play in her hands.I turned toward him and just raised m
Cynthia LangstonAge-21This time it’s Andrea who interrupts us.“King Aaron, Mrs. Langston, they are ready for you. It’s time for the speeches.”Aaron squeezes my hand and nods at Andrea as she smiles and leaves us to follow her out.Aaron turns toward me while raising my hand. He brings it to his lips and kisses it softly. “Are you ready?”“I am not. I have no idea what I am going to say.” I reply, biting my lips in nervousness. I was never an extrovert nor the best at public speaking. Even in High School, I avoided presentations like a plague. I am so scared, but something inside me wants to address the crowd, address my people. It’s almost like- almost like excitement to meet a family that has been staying away and has finally come home.“Just say whatever comes to your mind. You can keep it short. Just encourage them and everything will be fine. You can do this, baby.&rd
Cynthia Langston.Age-21“Today is not about games, not about sports. It’s about giving. We are here for each other, to take care of each other, and are we going to do that? Pardon my language, but damn right we will! We, as Glass horn wolves, have never backed down from being each other’s support and today is the proof. We will or won’t we?” Aaron asked.The crowd clapped while shouting “we will”.Aaron sighed as he continued, “I know things are not going great for us right now. The families are feeling threatened by rogues and families of rogues are threatened by the consequences. But as your King, I want you all to remember, I might be your King but first I am your Alpha. A part of you, I am your family too.”At this crowd cheered, hollered praises, and chanted King Aaron forever. I smiled, seeing the admiration and respect for Aaron. It was contagious alright because right now I am feeling t
Cynthia LangstonAge-21I was frozen on my spot when Aaron came to my side and touched my arm, jolting me out of my trance. I shook my head and looked up to find him frowning.“Is everything okay?” He mouths.I nod and smile to let him ease up. He takes my hand firmly in his large one, feeling his familiar warmth comforts me as Aaron walks us down the stage. People are still cheering and clapping, but the security is following us close to keep the crowd away.My mind is still on what I have just found. I haven’t told Aaron anything about mother yet but after this; I think I should tell him. Or should I not? Things are amicable right now, but we do have a pretty rocky relationship. But that doesn’t mean I am allowed to hide something, right? But this is between me and my mother. Urghh! I don’t know.Andrea is hot on our heels as she rants away about the mistake in my speech.“You didn’t even ta
Cynthia LangstonAge-21“Because you are cute!” he replied, squeezing me.I was frowning in confusion as he bopped my nose and looked at me like I was a cute puppy who just won his attention.“What?”He cupped my face and smiled, “Although I really appreciate it, but you don’t have to defend my honor mate mine. This is the drill here. We all try to cover every point of criticism so that nothing can surprise us when asked by public or even media.”“I made a fool of myself, again!” I said, groaning in frustration.“No, you didn’t. you just proved your loyalty to me.” Aaron smiles and leans down to peck me.Andrea is again here interrupting us. We both smirk at each other before looking at her.She looks startled. “Um, something’s wrong?”“No! nothing’s wrong. In fact, things just got better.” Aar
Cynthia LangstonAge-21Aaron looked shocked but he recovered fast and again took my hands in his hold." I am sorry, last few days have been tough on me, on us but believe me I am trying."At his sincerity, I couldn't help but smile and nod. I understand, things really have been very tough on us. First the drama with our families, then other people trying to create a mess, and finally the assassination attempt.It's not a piece of public knowledge yet but there was an attempt. Someone is out there planning to hurt my mate, hurt me and they need to think again because no matter what I have to, I am not letting anyone harm any of my family.After our moment, we both were pretty mellow and easy with each other. I kept stealing glances at him and every time I did, he was doing the same. Whenever our eyes met, they held love and admiration for each other.The event started with so much positive energy in the air that I couldn't help but gle
Cynthia LangstonAge-21Aaron was smirking as I tried to free my hand. I raised my eyebrow in question when he continued to gaze at me. He chuckled as I pouted, trying to let him know his silence was pissing me off.He leaned down and caressed my cheek with his nose, making me shiver in need, and made his way to my ear.“I am glad you wore this dress.”I frowned and again tried to make some distance. “Are you kidding me?”But Aaron wasn’t having it. He kept me close and continued to whisper, “No! You look irresistible in it. All I want to do right now is take you to a nearby corner and hump the fuck out of you.”My face was burning. I could feel the world around me fade away. All I could see was him and all I could hear was him, too. I didn’t want to stop, but the sudden applause brought me back. Feeling shy, I swatted him. “Stop it, what has gotten into you?”Aaron sm
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
