VeraIt was a long night. Whilst the royal physician went to get the herbs, I stayed with His Highness and kept watch on the twins as they concocted some of the herbs and potions that they had with them.I couldn't take my eyes off His Highness. Although he hasn't come around-which I didn't expect to happen magically, the blood dripping from his nose had greatly reduced. And I busied myself, cleaning the little blood that was still dripping. It was a sort of distraction that helped me keep my sanity.Despite knowing that he wouldn't wake up magically, I wanted him to be back already. The feeling was insane, it was searing. It made Beta Derrick's instability relatable... Little wonder he was losing himself.In the next few hours, I administered another drop of the potion. A few concoctions were also ready. The girls lectured me on how to use them and with the use of the dropper I fed His Highness with all the herbs.The girls looked at the door anxiously and I knew they were expecting
Vera"Good morning your Highness," the maids greeted in unison. I was back to reality. The sun had already set and its rays were seeping in through the blinds. My eyes opened and I groaned as I realised that I had slept in. My beddings was wet with my sweat and they were in disarray. That was a crazy dream. A hot sex with Alpha Joash? I just hope I didn't squirm or call out his name from my sleep. That was just a wish anyways, my bedding spoke volume.Gosh! The maids! They must have seen my display! Argh! The unreadable look on their faces was enough to tell me that I had messed up and they were trying hard to hide it.For fuck sakes! Will they cut me some slacks? I rose up, ignoring the stupid smirk that they now had on their faces. "Change the bedding!" I ordered heatedly to make them stop staring at me.Gradually, I got started for the day. I smiled as pieces of my dream flashed through my head. It brought the two different occasions when I had sex with Alpha Joash back to my he
Vera It was a long day and the sun was almost setting. I hadn't gone to check on Alpha Joash since I left his room in the morning.After speaking with Fred, a glimpse of my past flicked through my eyes and I was taken down memory lane. I was just a maid until the mating ceremony between I and His Highness. I guess that was why I was treated like a Queen when I returned. What if the mating ceremony didn't take place? I would have returned to continue my life as a maid.Power and luxury is intoxicating. Despite the aftermath of the ruins, I enjoyed the privileges of a queen. Everyone treated me with respect, my words had effects and they were prioritized.My emotions were high and I just kept a low profile all day. Now that it was evening, I was planning to go see His Highness when I heard a soft knock."Your Highness! Targon seeks to be in your presence," a guard announced."Oh! Targon, let him come in," I responded and signalled to the maids to leave.The door opened and Targon wal
VeraThe hatred and anger in Alpha Joash's voice was profound. "He doesn't want me!!!" I screamed and crashed back towards the door as I tried to reel in the effect his tone was having on me.Clutching my palms, I shut my eyes, breathing hard. I didn't dare to walk back in. I just crashed my back against the door, tearing up.I expected this, but wasn't easy to deal with. How much he loathed me! He just came around and the first thing he could do was to get rid of me!I gathered my strength and dashed back to my room.Now, this is my reality. I was just a maid whose parents were wrongly killed for treason.Alpha Joash's best Luna? I laughed at Fred's words as they came back rushing at me."Don't be scornful! Let's give him time… His reaction is a given… his last memory of you wasn't sweet. You defiled his orders, went out against his pleas and got him into trouble. I am sure you expected this…" Viola, my wolf encouraged me."Yes, I expected it. I had my doubts, but this is too hardh…
At first, when I perceived Vera's scent in my subconscious, I was happy. I had been hanging on, wondering why she hadn't shown up since I ended up in thus state. I thought she had left me again. But all my fears melted away when she suddenly showed up, crying her eyes out.Her regrets, confessions and profession of love were sweet. They transcended into my subconscious mind and kept me going. All I wanted was to return to her, hold her in my arms, tell her that I had forgiven her naughtiness, clean up her tears and make her know that all that matters was that she wanted me now.In my unconscious state, I couldn't keep a record of time and my subconscious floated in space.At some point something changed, affecting my subconscious existence. I began to fade away. All that I thought that I was holding onto, thinned out and I was all alone in a dark abyss. At that point, I had given up. I couldn't hold on anymore and I knew death was around the corner. I couldn't see nor feel my body an

Alpha Joash My poor judgement has always cost me irrevokable mistakes. I lost Jenny and Pete for the same reason and now Vera. I should have asked questions before acting on impulse. But I thought she was in league with the man who orchested my down fall and because of that, I lost my reasoning. Hearing all that Derrick said caused me a great pain. It turned out that while I was trapped in my subconscious, I wasn't the only one in hell. Vera passed through a greater hell. How do I reverse my actions and make her stay? "Bring in the healers and Vera too," I said calmly."No way! Speak to Vera yourself. As for the healers they will be brought in soon," Derrick bowed and walked out on me.I shut my eyes, regretting all that I had done. Well you wouldn't blame me, I didn't have a full picture of the whole situation."My Alpha, do not let Beta Derrick's attitude get at you. He has been erratic and irrational since we found ourselves in this situation… I can boldly say that he has lost
Derrick.After I had received his Highness'orders, I had no option, I had to obey. I tried to mind-link Vera but it was non effective. She didn't break her connectivity, right? No way! I told her not to leave. Quickly, I made my way to the river but she was gone."Vera!!!" I yelled her name several times but it was all still and silent.She wouldn't throw herself into the river… Hoping that she didn't, I gave a keen look at the river trying to figure out if someone was in there, but it was all peaceful. The river was flowing without disturbance.Where could she be? I tried to link her up again but I couldn't.Quickly, I left the Riverside and sped down to her room. The door was left ajar and it was empty, there was no sign of Vera. Her maids and guards were not of much help. They all testified that she sent them away two days ago.Fuck! I should have stayed with her! I should not have left her alone. Walking out of the room dejectedly, I met Targon on the way.He had been avoiding m
