Taking it easy. Not done this in a long time usually I am one who is always busy. Yes, I was made to train by Zain but even when I didn’t have to, I was still with him, watching him or Aaron. I loved just spending time with them, watching Aaron do his drawings for example always fascinated me.
Giving myself a bit more time to rest I try to lay back down in bed. I can now feel how deep the cuts must have been on my chest. Even now they feel on fire , a burning sensation under all the bandages. With it hurting so much I try to get myself to sleep clearing my mind, because if I think too much I won’t ever go to sleep and right now I need the rest.
Once I drifted off, I felt at ease but it didn’t last for long.
Sweating as these pictures keep popping into my head, hearing voices I have never heard before. Whispers. I can’t quite understand some of them but I try to concentrate, filtering out one that is the loudest,
“Have you found any trace of who could have handles the wolfsbane?” I ask as we sit there and I watch him stuff his face one sandwich at the time.“We found a little bottle that had wolfsbane in it, yes, but it was thrown into the bushes near the Castle wall. It broke into a million pieces so we couldn’t trace it to anyone. Hey, do you want to do something later? We are thinking of watching a Movie or something in the other Barracks this evening.” He smiles as he offers me more food. I shake my head.“I actually am going to the beach this evening, sorting some things out.” I know he will know that I will see Jackson. I knot my fingers together as I am slightly nervous how he will react.“Oh… okay. I had hoped you… Never mind.” He shakes his head slightly almost gone unnoticed.“Hoped what?” I question him.I had the hope you was done with running after him.” He si
I didn’t let go, something just clicked. We walk silently towards the Barracks when he suddenly stops. “Eliza? Let’s go this way.” He gazes towards the beach and the moon reflecting on the ocean sparkles in his eyes. I nod in agreement. He holds onto my hand tight, afraid of letting go. You can feel that something has changed, he is very calm but somewhat nervous. “Why did you run away?” He asks as he stops. “I don’t really want to talk about it. Hope you understand.” I answer looking down on our hands before trying to pull away. He holds even tighter. “Don’t always do this, stop running from me. I know what I said was wrong. Of course, I will always be there for you, always be here if you need a shoulder to fall back on. I am sorry that I let you down. I will try my hardest from now on to be the Friend that you need.” He then eases his grip on me and lets me go knowing he said what was bugging him. “This had nothing at all to do with you Noel
The excitement shifts for a moment and I feel flustered that I found myself in his arms that close to him. I quickly gather my thoughts back to what is important right now as I sit up again.“What happened?” He asks as he tries to make any sense of my erratic behaviour.I can hear his voice, this means somehow, I ended up with Jacksons special powers. How I don’t even know but it will come in handy that’s for sure.“You need to promise me to never tell another person what I am about to tell you.” I grind my teeth as I am ready to burst.“Right? I pinkie promise?” He can’t decide weather to laugh or to run away, I can see it in his eyes.“This might sound very crazy but, I have got a special Gift.” I start of slowly to hopefully get him prepared for what is to come.“I like Gifts.” He is still unsure and tries to make me laugh.“Not that kind of Gift. I
I notice a shadow jumping to the side as I turned to watch them walk away , which caught my attention immediately. I am now aware that something is off as I walk closer to the Flower shop looking at all the amazingly vibrant colours. Keeping an eye on who might be following me when I notice the beauty of a bundle of Orchids. They have me mesmerized as out of a sudden the Owner of the Shop hands me a few in a small Bunch. “Beautiful Flowers for a Beautiful Lady.” He smiles warmly at me as I gasp for air at the sight of them.“Oh, but I have no money on me.” I gesture with my hands in the air as I feel overwhelmed.“No need to pay. You made my Granddaughter an incredibly happy little Girl.” He hands me the Flowers.“Thank you so much.” Feeling very much caught out that someone would even do that. Just handing me a Bunch of the most beautiful flowers for nothing but a little Chat.I carry on to walk
I notice my neck burning, carefully running my fingers over the spot. Noticing that it is slightly wet and hot, like it’s on fire. My fingers are covered in blood, but it doesn’t feel like as if I am hurt, really odd, I could feel his mark on my neck and it makes me smile involuntarily.“Do you know what’s going on?” I ask shaking my head to make sure I got a clear mind.“No, I only know I am supposed to get back to the Castle.” He hastily walks in front of me but still checking that I am right behind him.He stops me and pushes me against the wall pressing his lips on mine. I grab on to his hair nearly dropping my flowers in my other hand as I just want to hold him tight. He starts to play with our tongues and kissing his way back towards my neck, where he licks over his mark.“Nearly healed already, this is my mark and soon I want to bear yours too.” He whispers in my ear before straighten himself an
No one has ever said these words to me before, not once did anyone pledge to me their love. I still feel the pain though, this feeling of disappointment that he is leaving. Leaving with her...I turn towards the Town. I will have to go speak to, what was his name again? Oh Yes… Joseph, I think it is. I need to get enough people to have people patrol the border, but in reality, I don’t need many in the castle as almost everyone will be gone. So probably one or two will cover the lot. I am a little concerned over the Rogues Liam mentioned. Somehow, I hope they aren’t trying their luck now half the Fighters are gone and almost all the Guards on top of it.Look at me making all these plans as every decision comes down to me now. Never had so much responsibility before but I need to proof to Liam that I can look after the castle while they are away. I casually walk towards the Town asking my way around who Joseph is and how I can find him. I am directed t
Next thing I know is the shadow jumping towards me, knocking me over. Shaking my head to clear my mind and refocus on the intruder. In an instant I am pushed aside before I get a chance to react. It’s a strong, golden coloured Wolf who is stood in front of me protecting me from anymore harm.“Stay back Zara.” He mind links me growling towards the shadows fletching his teeth. Out of the dark steps a light brown and tall wolf. With his head slightly lowered ready to attack. I can feel the tension between the two as the brown one starts to leap forwards. He stops himself in the last minute and takes steps backwards. His eyes widen as he glares in my direction, laying down on the ground, which is really not a thing you would do as Rogue in someone else’s territory. Slightly baffled by his behaviour I start wondering what he is trying to say. Maybe he is trying to tell us something.Feeling this pull towards the rogue Wolf, I budge past Noel who trie
We hung on to the castle and Pack for four days. Nothing else happened and we got a good routine with switching between day and night-time watch. I was up nights and Noel would do everything throughout the day once I handed over. Not once did we talk about what happened, nor did we talk about anything else. Really it was just anything related to how the day or night went. I came across a park, it looked like a parcourse, no one has mentioned it to me before, so it has me curious.This evening as he hands over the night shift, I look him in the eyes with a little glimmer in my eyes.“What is that parcourse thing? Why is no one using it?”“Oh, we are still using it, you just not had the chance to see it yet. Liam usually makes it a competition once a month we all start like a knockout event. One against another only the winner gets to the next round. You need to be really fit to get through it and fast on top of it. It’s fun, but you defini
The Kitchen is quiet only a hand full of Maidens who I have seen before are now present. They are sitting at a table with some snacks. Usually, the table had always been full of food, ready for everyone working in and around the castle to take. The chatter stops as I enter the room and all eyes are on me, expectant but with a look of fear.“Hello” I say quietly before walking towards the five Ladies sitting around the table.A young Lady with light brown Hair, petite in size starts to speak as I take a chair to join them.“Many of the Kings slaves have left the Village in fear as soon as the Pack bond broke. There are not many of us left to keep the Kitchen running. We don’t even have a cook to make the meals. We were not sure what to actually do.” Her voice getting smaller towards the end as she looks down on the table.“But you are here. All five of you. If you are willing to work with me, we will prepar
Hello everyone, i thought i give you a quick update. This book will continue shortly! Won't be daily updates but it certanly will carry one.

So here i am updating you that i now have a brand new laptop and in the coming days will start writing again! You will hear from me very soon!
“I want to reshape everything Faron has built, but I need your help. There won’t be the separation anymore between guards and fighters, instead we will have warriors. No two class between them anymore, everyone fighting for the same, the safety for our Pack. We will come out of this stronger than ever. Joseph , I would like you to be leading the training for everyone. The Wall needs to be taken down, if you could over see this.” Looking between Liam and Joseph who is slightly taken a back by my announcement of taking the wall down, I turn my attention purely towards Liam. “Liam, I would like you to be our Beta. I need your insight and knowledge as well as your loyalty. I hope you will agree that you are both an absolute asset to this pack and it would be sad to see either of you two leave.” Expectant I am awaiting eager on a reply from Liam agreeing with me but he stays still. “Yes, my alpha. We will get on the job r
The Castle is the same, it’s me who changed. Our lives are now going to be different, seeing everything through different eyes.Noel opens the car door, holding out his hand for me. Not going to lie but my legs are feeling like jelly as I step out of the Car. Some of the Guards are stood at the entrance welcoming us home, with a nod I recognise his effort.The Hall now certainly seems so much bigger than I could remember it and the sheer weight on my shoulders knowing that all the decisions are on me. The young Girls who Faron used for his amusement are all stood in the Hall in a small puddle, whispering as we enter.All eyes are on us as they are uncertain how to react.A quick look over to Noel, who is stood right behind me, gives me the confidence to speak up.“King Faron is now gone. He won’t be returning so your services are no longer needed. However, if you wish you can still work in the castle, y
I am sorry that I let you all wait to long for the story to continue. I had to write on another story and needed to take some time off due to the summer holidays, so I could spend time with my little girls while they had been off school, but I will return with more updates from November the 1st! I have already started to write a few chapters and am uploading them as we speak ready for daily updates to resume soon. Thank you so much for the continued support, it really means so much to me and my family!
We are the last ones to walk down the long white path. At the end a big Coffin One half of it is opened. They have extra built him a little stage, put drapes around the corners with white and grey organza lovingly draped around it. With big flower stands. I swallow hard. Not wanting to admit that it is his final goodbye. Up until now I managed to shield myself from the enormous pain and kept everything locked away. I don’t even hear what the Speaker is saying, nor when Aaron or Zain get up to speak and when they present their beautiful speeches they have prepared. I barely manage to look up but when I did, I could see Tim, Rasmus, Miller and Liam, staring in my direction. Their faces sad and full of emotions. Everyone is now turning to me and I jump a little as I realise that absolutely everyone’s eyes are on me. I breathe in sharply taking steps towards the Coffin. Seeing him there makes me realise how I have tried to avoid this situation. I didn’t even help to plan
A part of me wants to hold him up. Tell him, it’s okay. You can make wrong decisions and it would still work out. The other Part of me feels that it’s the way to go… We just wasn’t meant to be, maybe if we had met under different circumstances, we would have made it and we could have been happy together. If Faron had never entered his life, If He had grown up somewhere loved with his parents without all the lies… the what if’s take over all my thoughts as I stand there looking into the dark of the Forest. I don’t even notice for how long I was stood there, imagining how different our lives could have been. The strange feeling is still very prominent. When I turn around Noel is stood there looking at me and I am unsure whether I should go to him or walk away. I know its nothing good because he never looked at me like this before. The feeling is laying heavy over us and I am reluctant to accept it. “I didn’t want to do this to you. I know how hard it ha
“Yeah, I agree with Zara, Rose is all down to you Mom. What ever you want to do, we will support you and stand behind you. Fully and no questions asked. Gemma, I am not sure… it’s your Mate’s wife so not certain what you think is reasonable. Again, I help where I can obviously.” Zain looks between me and our Mother. “ Let’s get this straight - Jackson is my Rejected mate, after I talked to him yesterday it became apparent that really, I didn’t want him anymore. There was no feelings left from me, the bond has dissolved fully, He is a free wolf like he always wanted. I have offered him to stay here or if he wants to return to the Castle, he is welcome there too.” I point out as I grab for Noel’s hand who is looking rather confused at me. “Do I understand this right? You are not thinking of going back to the Castle, are you?” He shakes his head in disbelieve. “Yes, my plan is to go back to the Castle and I thought you
We lay there catching our breath for a good few minutes before either of us even thinks about moving and even though I hurt after fights this is just a different kind of ache you find yourself in. Muscles you don’t usually feel are now aching. Especially between my legs. I smile as I stare at the bedroom ceiling when Noel’s head pop’s up next to me and he rests his head on his shoulder stroking over my skin with his other hand. I lean my head to the side to meet his gaze on me. Without words we appreciate each other’s company, absolute silence, and a bit of feeling bliss in the air. “I am sorry I marked you, but it just felt so right in the heat of the moment.” I stutter with embarrassment as my cheeks heat up again. “You won’t hear me complain.” He lightly traces over his mark on his neck with a smile. My Tummy starts to rumble so we decide to get our clothes back on but just as I try to pull my underwear back on, he grabs me from behind kissi
