2024-10-29 19:42:56Once upon a time when I walked through these hallways and entered any room, I was always met with either children, Quentin's wives or servants. I could always hear some noise no matter where I was. At that time when I'd just gotten here, it would irritate me and pain me. Those loud happy laughs and the constant sounds of mothers scolding their children to stay away from anything that would hurt them.
As I run my finger across the walls it seems like a distant memory. The only sound that meets me now, is the sound of my breathing and the almost silent patter of my feet as I walk through the house by myself.
The silence is deafening and scary. This house looks even bigger than it did back then because it was only me and Quentin who was lying in his bed, unmoving but breathing. The servants were silent and stayed out of my

"Can you tell me what's going on doctor?" I asked the doctor, after watching him look at Quentin for almost an hour.The doctor turned to me but didn't meet my eyes, "we're waiting for him to gain the strength to wake up. The breaking of the mate bonds took a massive toll on his wolf, and when his wolf is weak, so is Quentin. It's possible that his wolf won't be able to fight this and might give up.""What will happen to Quentin if that happens?" I asked him and the doctor looked at Quentin."Alpha Quentin will not be able to wake up and he'll die peacefully in his sleep."I gasped, covering my mouth, "you're telling me he could die?" I asked him, shocked at the news. I just thought he'd be asleep for

"I'm afraid our fears have come to life," the doctor sighed after he'd given me some water when I'd woke up.I don't understand what happened and why it happened but as the doctor says this sentence everything kind of falls into place. I remember everything from my mother's slap to me collapsing right before I reached the car and finally waking up on this bed next to Quentin. Quentin still lies still and now I don't know what to do as I look at the doctor who gives me a concerned look."I don't think the Alpha...I'm afraid the reason that you feel weak is because the Alpha is unable to wake up. His wolf is losing the fight for survival, and now, it's, it's only a matter of time before he...before you both lose your lives."I shut my eyes at those words and desp

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared and fearful of what the future held. I was getting weaker by the day and it started to feel like death was inevitable and there was no way I could escape or fight it.At first, I got angry because I blamed Quentin. How selfish could he be? Then I realized he was doing what he thought would make me happy, but that only led us to our deaths and now we're here. Every time I close my eyes and slip into that deep sleep, a piece of me is left behind when I open my eyes."Thank you, Elisabeth," I said softly as Elisabeth helped me up, using her powers and floated the pen and paper towards me and I held it in my hands.I'd asked Elisabeth to bring me a pen and paper because I wanted to write a letter to my mother. I wanted to apol

The only way to describe it was that I was at peace. Peace had washed over me in waves and I felt like I was floating. I felt so light and airy like I didn't weigh a single ounce and I was just moving with the breeze of the wind.I felt so powerful like I hadn't just been on my deathbed, starving and thirsty. In fact that was so far away from my memory. I could almost hear soft singing in the distant, that soothed me even more. These beautiful hymns that just drove me further and further to a darkened yet peaceful world."Sarafina," a voice called, it was an unfamiliar feminine voice. It felt so light that if I hadn't been so at peace, I wouldn't have heard it."Moon Goddess," I responded, as my eyes opened and I looked around to

I let out a deep breath, looking at the beautiful band around my finger as I lightly traced my fingers across Quentin's abs. We had decided to go forth with the wedding. After nearly losing my life, Quentin didn't want to waste any time and as soon as he could, he called upon a couple of pack elders into the bedroom and we had a small informal ceremony.It wasn't my dream wedding but I'll have that at a later stage when I'm feeling better.I'm still not feeling too good, I was still very weak so I'm just laying here, letting Quentin take care of me."What are you thinking about?" he asked me, as I felt his fingers move through my knotted hair and I hissed, slapping his hand away."We need to do this ri

My heart's banging against my rib cage, my palms are sweaty, and no matter how many times Quentin kissed me and told me everything would be alright, I knew that there was a possibility that they just wouldn't be.My mother is the only family that I have left and I can't afford to be arguing with her. I know she'll probably give me an earful about my behaviour at the restaurant but I've long since forgotten that day because I had more pressing matters. Like, oh you know, me dying.I tried to get dressed up for today but I was still too weak and tired. I couldn't walk so I was in a wheelchair, wearing a floral long sleeve maxi dress and a pair of warm fluffy slippers.I sent out one of the pack members to pick my mum up from her hotel a few hours ago and I knew that it would only be a matter of time before the car pulled up and I would see my mother after everything that's happened.&nb

"And who the hell are you?" my mother snapped at him as he confidently strode into the room and walked towards her with his arm outstretched."I'm Quentin Wynverston, your daughter's husband," he introduced himself like that was actually going to help me. If I was able to move around and had the strength to stand, I would’ve probably slapped him silly because this would do more harm than good. My mother would view this as a sign of disrespect.My mother snapped her head to the side, "is that so? So you're the silly English man who kidnapped my daughter and brainwashed her?" she stood from her chair and slapped his hand away, "are you not even the least bit ashamed of yourself?" she snapped at him, "this is my daughter, she's not even 21 years old yet-"He nodded, accepted her backlash, "I understand that you're very upset-""Oh, I'm not upset Quentin, I'm pissed

"Do you think she'll come around?" Quentin asked me as he slowly began to undress me so he could bath me. There really was no need for him to do any of this because I was feeling a lot better but he kept insisting and wouldn't take no for an answer.I raised my arms above my head, letting him take off the dress easily while I stood in front of him in my underwear, "I hope so," I mumbled honestly, concerned about my mother as I thought about how she had reacted once she gained consciousness.She started calling Quentin the devil and swore that this was some “satanic shit”, she also tried to run and when we stopped her, she kept screaming out the Lord's name and promising that she'll pour holy water all "over this bitch". But after the abrupt blow up, she was simply numb and went into more shock. I just sat th

"You really made her bow down to you?" Elisabeth asked me with wide eyes as I struggled to keep the proud smirk off my face as I bit my bottom lip and stretched my arms from the position that I was laying in.The tea party with the wives had ended a few hours ago and I was relaxing with Elisabeth as I told her what happened and at first, she was giggling when I told her about how the wives all started fighting until I got to the part where I made Katherine bow down to me.I didn't think I had it in me to do such a thing and I'd be lying if I said that I had planned on doing that. I didn't plan on standing up and putting their wives in their place which was clearly all the way down there compared to me and I most definitely didn't plan on making Katherine bow at my feet but I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel good.

"Are you ready?" Elisabeth asked me as she magically appeared in front of me while I was observing myself in the mirror. Some other women would spend the 24 hours before their wedding by going out with friends, having a bachelorette party and reflecting back on their single days; but I am not like other women. The day before my wedding will not be spent with my closest friends and half naked men with bulging crotches and tight underwear accompanied by strip poles rather, it will be spent with my future husband's eight other wives.I'm attending their infamous tea party. I remember the disaster the previous one had been and I hope that I don't have to witness the same thing but more importantly I hope I'm not the one they all turn their fiery gaze on. I don't think I can fight eight she wolves. Matter of fact, I know that I can't fight them.

"I can't believe you cut your hair," Quentin's English accent was thickly coated in shock as he ran his hand over my new hair and I slapped his hand away."Stop it," I scolded him but he was still looking at me in shock."I thought you were going to put in hair extensions or a weave," he told me as I glared at him."Are you saying that I look ugly?" I snapped at him but he quickly shook his head."You're incapable of ever looking ugly, Sarafina. I just wasn't expecting you to cut your hair. You look astonishingly beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful and bare I've ever seen you."I wasn't expecting to cut my hair either. When Quentin brought m

What use was crying and moping going to be? There was only so many times I could cry about the situation but it was permanent and there was nothing that I could do about it. Quentin would not let them die and I shouldn't want them to die just for my own selfish needs.I chose him over my own mother, I chose him over death and what I hope had been paradise. I had to stick with him now and there was no going back.I woke up before the break of dawn and took a much needed shower. I needed to scrub myself clean because it had been days since I stepp

The bedroom door banged open and my mother came charging in, "you know what, Sarafina, I can't do this!" my mother exclaimed as she ripped the sheets off my body and I just looked at her.Quentin had carried me from the balcony and laid me on the bed before covering me with the sheets as he cleaned around the room and I finally rested after what felt like years.I hadn't seen my mother this week because I didn't want to face her and I guess she gave me that space or Elisabeth has been holding her back."I can't just sit back and watch you live like this," my mother snapped at me but her angry tone was only laced with heartbreak.

I would do anything to make her happy. I'd put my life on the line without a second thought if that is what made her happy but no matter how much I loved and cared for her, I couldn't let my children grow up without their biological mothers. I care for my children and I don't want to take their mothers away from them. It would be the most foul and selfish thing that I could do and I know that Sarafina understands this but it is difficult to wrap her head around the fact that the only way to save them would be for me to create that mate bond again.I had promised myself that I would never hurt her again when she had been laying there with no heart beat and just a pale sunken in face after I had prayed for her to come back to me and when she opened her eyes I promised myself and the moon goddess that I would never be the reason behind her tears of pain and I'd kill anyone who dare

I thought I knew what I was getting into but now it's pretty obvious that I was in way over my head. Once again, my mother did know best. She was right when she said love just wasn't enough. At this point, I wasn't feeling very loved or needed or...anything at all. If anything it felt like my heart was breaking and I tried so hard to keep a straight face on as I stood beside Quentin. Brigitte and Florence were across us. Both of them looked sickly pale and they looked horrible.I felt bad for them and sorry for them, they were dying for crying out loud and the evidence was all over their form but I just didn't want them marrying Quentin.I can't believe he'd do this to me...is it wrong of me to want him all to myself? I guess n

I know understood why Katherine hated me. Even though it hadn't been my fault, the man that she loved, found someone else. I couldn't even find the strength to stand from the floor and I don't know how my mother knew or found out that something was wrong with me but when she came into the room, pleading with me from the other side of the door to let her in, I realized how glad I was that I had her here with me.I didn't even have the energy to put on any clothes. My mother came into the room and immediately covered me with one of the many robes in the room. After that, she sat on the floor with me and cradled me in her arms like I was baby as I sobbed into her chest.I welcomed the comfort that she provided me, sobbing uncontro

"Good morning, Sarafina," I heard his deep voice croak into my ear as he kissed my forehead and I opened my eyes with a grin on my face.I let go of the pillow that I was holding onto that smelled like him because I couldn't sleep at night without his body right next to mine, "Quentin, baby," I squealed in excitement, all trace of exhaustion gone from my system as I wrapped my arms around his neck and forced his body to fall onto mine, "I missed you," I cried into his neck, burying my nose deep into his flesh and inhaling as much of him as possible."I missed you too, baby," he coaxed me gently, running his fingers along the sides of my waist, tickling the naked flesh and causing goosebumps to appear on my arms "I'm sorry that
