She Was The Queen Chapter Hundred and Five
I got out of and left the med bay. I needed to be alone.It's not like I envied Linda's gift of twins. It's not like I wished to have as many kids as my parents did. It's not like I wanted to keep Sun Wolf blood alive. It's not like I wanted any of that. But when I got into the shower, with my clothes on, I wept incredibly. I sobbed like a five-year-old and screamed as silently as I could. I wanted it. I wanted all of that. I wanted kids. I wanted twins. It was a desire that burned in me as soon as I saw Fern. She was young and full of life, something I needed. I needed someone of my blood around, I wanted kids. Even one would’ve been enough.I knew it was Yaga who brought me back.I know you brought me back so why didn't you bring back my family? Why do you keep hurting me when all I do is worship you? When all I do is give you my all. You’ve let everything be taken from me. Did you make me so you could watch my melancholic story unfold? Let me die and bring me back to kill me inside.

I woke up with a sharp pain in my wrists. My eyes opened to the glorious warmth of health and I held my breath in deep, questioning this oddity. Perhaps, the poison was playing its games with me again. It wouldn't be out of the question. Then I wondered if Malcolm was somewhere in the room, among the bodies that laid asleep on the floor of our bedroom.I turned around to face my love whose hand was still in mine. I squeezed his hand to wake him up but his hand was cold. Ice cold. Khai stayed asleep and didn't move so I sat up and found dark orbs staring at me.They watched me with the darkest eyes, sitting on their hind legs with eyes filled with sorrow and melancholy. Then I felt it. The atmosphere and the world had grown thinner. It was like something that was always there went missing in the middle of the night. I turned my attention mainly to Linda whose eyes were actually a shade darker, almost brown. Everyone was in their wolf form as Khai had instructed them to remain.Their ey

I stayed with him for hours until I saw the next sunrise. I woke up to Hannah, she used a little voice, as if afraid of waking Khai up.“Wake up, you need to eat,” she said.She stood over me, her hair in a high ponytail, her skin so clean and beautiful like it was any other day. She kept her eyes focused on me to not look at the person beside me.“What? You can’t face it?” I asked.She sighed.“Roman, please.”She rubbed her hand along my calf. I sat up and realized my hand was still wrapped around Khai’s. I turned around to face him.His eyelashes were always disgustingly long. I envied his long eyelashes. I brushed his silky hair out of his face and gave him a peck on the lips. I felt some warmth between us but I knew I was crazy. I had slept with a corpse for two nights now. When I faced Hannah she was sobbing into her hands as silently as she could. I knew then I wasn’t going anywhere. I pulled the covers open and slid back into the bed beside him.“Roman, please.”“I’ll eat when

The man was right it had been two days. Two days was not enough for me to act like it was something that was supposed to happen. I had whiplash. It was just yesterday. He kissed me, held me, and read to me. Had he known all along? When he called the whole pack here to protect me, did he know he would die that night? I couldn’t wrap my head around it.“Is that how you guys do it?”Hannah sighed and looked up at me from the table.“Do what?” she asked tiresomely.“Death? You just move on?”She shrugged. Falcon rubbed her shoulders. Her eyes were swollen, and everyone’s eyes were swollen with grief but I couldn’t buy it. I couldn’t believe they were feeling the pain I was feeling. Where was the screaming, the crying, the drama? This wasn’t just anyone. This was Khai.“What do expect us to do?” she asked.This felt like a dream. Oh, how I needed it to be a dream.I expected the world to stop and not in a superficial way, I meant literally. The earth to stop turning, the sunrise, the birds

Knock. Knock.“Go away!” I shouted.“The elders are requesting you.” Malcom’s whisper pierced through the door.He sounded tender, kind and genuine. I think he was trying to comfort me but I wanted to be left alone. Forever.The elders? What did they want from me? Probably to hate me in my face or say in ten different ways how I killed Khai. And if that Whitney woman was there, they are here to tell me crap.They are probably going to kick me out.“Roman?” His voice became softer.I quickly rubbed my face against the duvet, wore Khai’s black gown and opened the door. Malcom’s strong and tall body leaned on the frame of the door, his upper arm resting above me. The middle of his forehead grew deep as his different eyes narrowed.“What were you doing?”I walked past him and went to the living room. I was not in the mood for Malcolm, for anyone. I’d face this quickly and swiftly.I found them gathered in the living room. The curtains were drawn and they all looked at me when I entered. I

With that, I launched into the forest, following my nose. Their smell hurt and that had to end. It had to end. I was going to end them. After all they put me through I would kill them slowly.The strength I felt pulsing through my veins and the size I was at then, I could taste their blood on my tongue. I wanted to tear them to shreds, starting with every pack member and ending with dessert. Intiyago. I wanted to first tear him from limb to limb and crush his skull.Tears tore from my face in the wind, my heart still mourned and I howled painful howls as I followed my nose. Yaga and Traga must’ve given me this power to do this exact thing. This would be for everything. For my pack, for the lives they took from Traga and lastly for Khai.Navigating through the trees was hard this time, I wasn’t as small as I used to be so I could not fit into places I used to. I was bigger, stronger… an alpha? Not only was I bigger, but I was also heavier and therefore slower.A few hits from miscalcul

I could hear them just as we were a few trees from the main house.Abomination!Surely you cannot expect us to bow to a woman. This is not something we decided for ourselves; it was placed upon us. Have you lost trust in your ancestors?The last voice was Khai’s grandfather, to my surprise he was defending me. It seemed he was the only one on my side.Malcolm placed me on the ground. The sun hid behind a couple of clouds and I was still helpless as my body healed at a snail’s pace. If I had been like other wolves I would’ve healed by now. Intiyago’s head would be between my jaws. My body boiled with anger and rage and a surge of power I had no business having. This must’ve been what Khai experienced when he suddenly became the alpha.No, but that couldn’t be. I wasn’t the alpha. Firstly a foreigner, no matter how long they have assimilated to a pack, could never become an alpha but a woman... That was impossible for natives.The whole pack had been summoned, perhaps by my transformat

I was told I was not needed for the meeting that was happening in the living room. What could I say for myself anyway? I could hear them shouting from downstairs, anger and confusion laced in their voices.Audrey and I sat in Khai’ and I’s room… my room. She dressed up in Yolanda’s sweater and jeans and she looked better in them. As I was dressing up in the bathroom Audrey had already made the bed and put everything away.“It still smells like him in here,” she said as she folded a blanket and put it away in the wardrobe.“You didn’t have to do that,” I said as kindly as I could.Inside I was fuming. How dare she change everything? The room was so neat and tidy it was like any other day. She smoothed the bed until it had no wrinkles before she sat on it.“I cannot sit in disorder,” she stated.Her face was placid and innocent, I couldn’t find it in myself to yell at her

The world was red as I backed away, trying to shake the blood off my face. Intiyago walked slowly toward me. Prowling, Ravenous and angry but his eyes – his eyes were sympathetic.Roman, this is not what I want. His voice was soft in my head. He stopped in his tracks, his head lowered down and he licked drops of my blood which had fallen on a rock.No.But it was too late, his pink tongue wiped the rock clean and his eyes surged with a golden glow. A menacing growl ripped out of him.This is what I want!His voice was heavy again, dark and sharp. The sun healed the scratch and I could see properly again. I charged toward him and clawed at his face. Claw after claw I saw blood and more blood until his face was disfigured. He howled and jumped to the side where he rammed me into a tree. The impact almost broke my ribs but I got back up and gave him everything I had. I rammed him into the other tree and bit into his arm so hard I hit his bone.The painful howl he screamed satisfied me i

Malcolm decided to return to the funeral with a busted nose and lips. I waited on the porch for the guard dogs to appear. They said that as soon as Khai was buried we would get to go.Nothing else mattered but my vengeance, nothing at all. There was no after. I couldn’t imagine it and if I died killing all the Azraels I would be satisfied, I would’ve achieved my life’s purpose.A couple of wolves… Ten? No fifteen. Twenty-seven? Thirty! Thirty, to be exact broke out of the forest, ravenous and ready to fight. Traga guard dogs. Slightly bigger than other wolves and their legs showed that they spent their time fighting and running. These were strong wolves. I almost felt pride when I saw them coming in, if no one knew – they would’ve thought they were wild wolves.I got to my feet as family members and other Tragas came back to the house in their human forms. Hannah ran to my side.“You don’t have to do this. You’re the alpha, send them out instead. You stay.”Vomit bubbled in the back o

When we were out of sight he loosened his grip on me. My hand quickly found its way to his and I held it tight. I couldn’t let go of the warmth, even for a second. I still allowed my mind to play tricks on me. If I did not look at him and imagine his voice as Khai’s he would be Khai.“You can’t do that type of stuff. It’s traumatising,” he said.I knew it was wrong. I did not doubt it but I didn’t care.His other free hand ran down his face. He looked tired and sleepless. The bags under his eyes were swollen, and red cracked through the whites of his eyes. Had he not slept? I looked away from him, to the trees and anything else that would allow me to swap him out with who I wanted him to be.“That’s why we have to look at him before they shut the casket. It prevents such things.”Leaves crunched under his boots and my heels. My ankles and toes hurt.It was insane how it hadn’t been a complete year since I met Khai. I met him in winter and lost him before winter. I let go of his hand. H

A blur turned into a man with long hair, hunched forward, his back to me. His shoulders moved up and down as he sat on the other end of the mattress. Sunlight poured into the room and it was warm.“What do you want Malcolm?”“Alpha,” he said dully. I groaned.“Please don’t call me that.”“Thank you, I wasn’t enjoying it.” He simply said.We were alone in the room, Edna and Audrey must’ve left for breakfast or something. A little tingle in my stomach made me desperately want to see his face.“Hey look at me,” I told him and he adjusted his weight.His hair was wet, dripping still and parted in the middle. He looked clean, it suited him to be clean.“Why do you keep long hair, you look like a songwriter,” I said.A small smile etched upon his face and I had no idea why it felt good. I hated it.On the other hand, my arms felt like they had been squeezed into immobility and my body was heavy. My nose was runny and I sniffled. I had been lying on one side the whole night, crying in my sle

The hours went by and people stopped coming. Most must’ve been sleeping but I could hear them outside, mourning and crying, their whispers like the wind whistling through leaves.Before I could notice, Edna had curled into a ball and fallen asleep. Yolanda said she was going to the bathroom, but she never returned for a very long time. Audrey and I sat in silence for 20 minutes, just staring off into the darkness and the shadows that danced along with the candle flames.“She’s with Jacob, you know?” Audrey mentioned matter-of-factly.I looked over at her and her face was deepened by shadows, the crevices of her smile were like dark corners. The statement didn’t surprise me – rather I was absorbed in the atmosphere of everything. How dark and gloomy everything had gotten, how everybody’s smiles had turned into tears and clenched teeth. It only took a single moment.“How has this affected you?” I asked her.The question scared me at first, I was afraid she would give me something intell

That night Khai’s bedroom was cleared and they only left the mattress. The room was as bare as carcasses my brothers and I left stripped of any flesh after a hunt. His smell went along with everything and all I could smell was the stench of cigarettes, old, from when Khai used to smoke as a teenager.The room was to be the main room of mourning. Whitney, Edna, Yolanda, Audrey and I sat in there with scarves covering our heads and the longest dresses and skirts we could find. Tradition was the reason for everything lately. We were supposed to sit there and mourn until the sun came up and the funeral began.I didn't want to do it, it sounded miserable. But then I realized I was nowhere above misery and I was the one who spent days with a corpse in bed, pretending and hoping he would wake up and call it all some foul joke. That never happened.Although I wasn’t officially a widow I was considered one. We never got down to tying the knot but his ring hun

Malcolm’s eyes fell on me, cold and stern.“This is not Malcolm’s idea, it is simply tradition,” Raymond said calmly.“Yes… but I am the alpha, I can rule that tradition out of the book,” I said.Raymond’s face hardened. He stood up and stormed toward me. His hand wrapped around the collar of my shirt as he pulled me up to his level.“Haven’t you caused enough trouble, bitch? You will do as we say and fix what you broke.”His voice was coarse, hot on my cheek.“Raymond, calm down! Leave the girl alone!” Edna protested.With all his strength he threw me back into the couch and I sat back down. I tried not to show it but my heart was racing and I was scared. Raymond was a large man, akin to a bear. If we wanted to, he could’ve thrown me into the wall and broken through it.“Roman, I hoped I didn’t have to make it explicitly clear but

Before I could get to know Audrey better Yolanda came to call us. Yolanda and Audrey’s relationship was characterized by brutal teasing, nothing was off the table. Yolanda only needed to say a sentence before Audrey criticised it.“Where did you pick up that atrocious accent?” Audrey asked as we walked down the hallway.At the first step, Yolanda tittered.“Must’ve been from those years when you tutored me. Heads up, read a book before you think you can lecture someone.”“I love to see you taking initiative, I didn’t know you could read.”The two giggled between each other. I didn’t know how to feel about the jokes though, since I couldn’t read.It never mattered if I could read or not back home, what advantage would such a skill afford a culture of people who hardly read? School didn’t exist either, at least in the formal sense. All older wolves saw it as their responsibility to educate those who were younger than them. One morning I’d find myself hunting with my father and the next,
