Both men stared head on at each other, " What the hell?" Alden inquired."She is a queen, you wouldn't be so happy if I laid a finger on your mother would you?" He retorted.Alden grew angrier and was about to charge towards Stiles, but Cisca held on to his arms, "Don't listen to him, he wants you to get mad." She pleaded.Alden carefully disengaged from Cisca, she couldn't stop a six foot two man anyway. " Save your intimidation for pussies. Leave my name out of your mouth." "I am the king and you will bow to me whether you like it or not!" Stiles bellowed. Queen Nicky and Martin were downstairs the next minute. " What is going on here?!" Nicky screamed when she saw the two men almost at each other's throat, their veins pulsating quickly. "Lets hash this out man to man. Bickering like a woman will not solve this." Alden challenged. He was so down to hand Stiles his ass. He had this fight coming long ago."Separate them, why are you crying?" Nicky faced Alexia." Hey, son. He is
"Doctor! I think the Queen is moving!" A nurse shouted, barging into Doctor Bart's office, gasping and sweatingDr.Bart sprang to his feet, the instant he heard the news and raced with the nurse to the ward where Amelia lay. The beeping sound of the monitor indicated that she was awake, but Amelia lay motionless on the bed."Can you hear me Amelia?" The doctor asked, touching her hand; it was still cold, and her pulse was weak. But it was a bit better than when she just arrived "If you can hear me, move your hands." He said and observed for any movement. Doctor Bart shifted his gaze to the ray of sunlight filtering into the room, it was shining close to Amelia's bed. "Move those curtains." He instructed and Nurse Julia obeyed. Just then, the door opened, and another nurse walked in, interrupting Dr. Bart's concentration. Dr. Bart contorted his face into a frown as he looked at the intruder. "Give me a good reason why you are here." Nurse Grace wore a sheepish expression, and bowe
"Get me the pacemaker." Dr. Bart raised his voice above the beeping monitor, and Nurse Julia scurried to get it from the ward where instruments were kept." Pass me the defibrillator." Dr. Bart ordered, as her pulse began to drop rapidly. Nurse Cindy connected it and he placed it on her chest. Amelia jerked as the shock coursed through her, causing Dr. Bart to relax a bit. He placed it on her chest the second time, and her upper body jerked in response. He felt for her pulse which was a tad bit louder than before. Just then, Nurse Julia returned with the pacemaker, " Here it is, sir." She placed it on the sterilized table. " Let's watch her for a few hours." He replied instead and watched the monitor lines move in a regular pattern. Thankfully the loud beep had reduced.When he was certain that she was fine, he turned towards the two nurses who stared at him expectantly. "Nurse Cindy, you will relieve Julia of her duty tonight." Then he picked up his writing pad and strode out of t
" Hey darling, welcome." Queen Nicky said in a flat tone and ignored his previous statement. She turned and gave Cisca a dismissive look. " You can leave now." Martin watched Cisca who gave him an acknowledging nod as she strode past him. He opened his mouth to speak, " Let's have this conversation in my room." His mother cut him short." You must be surprised to see Cisca and I having a discussion." She began immediately after they entered the room.Martin nodded, "A civil discussion." He pointed out." Yeah. I was advising her concerning the love triangle she is caught in." She explained. Martin gave her a disbelieving look, " You promise that's all you've been telling her?" Nicky rolled her eyes, " Yes, I am not the monster that you think I am." " That is because I cannot wrap my head around the fact that you can have a decent conversation with a girl that you have stated countless times that you hate," Martin responded. Nicky moved closer to her dressing table, removed the
Cover for me!" Cisca told Reagan and ducked behind the stable door. " What?" Reagan asked, and understanding dawned on her when she saw Stiles approaching. She maintained a calm composure when he got nearer. " Good morning, Prince Stiles." He replied.Stiles pinned her with a straight look, " Where is Cisca?" Reagan shrugged, and her face contorted into confusion, " I don't know, she is supposed to be here." " Quit the act," Stiles replied. Her pretentious look irritated him.Reagan straightened and looked at him with a straight face, refusing to be intimidated.Stiles took a cursory glance around the environment, and his nose slightly twitched. " Where is she?" He inquired." I don't know sir." She replied and his hand smacked against her cheek." You dare lie in my very presence? How dare you?!" He boomed. Reagan moved her cheek around to relax the muscle that shifted when the slap was delivered." I don't know where she is!" Reagan cried and Stiles was red hot with anger." Re
" We have a problem," Alexia informed Stiles very early the next day. Sleep vanished from Stiles' face when he saw his mother's somber look. What could have happened to make her look this way?" What is it, Mom?" Alexia handed a neatly folded paper to him, and he took a second glance before collecting it from her." The letter was brought in last night, I didn't want to disturb you." She chirped when he opened the paper. _The alliance between your father your pack and the Blood Moon pack has been severed. Therefore, you no longer have access to our port._" Okay?" He replied, not seeing the reason for his mother's dramatics."Do you not understand what this means?" She inquired.He shook his head, and she groaned, " This is a rebellion." " I'm sure you are just blowing things out of proportion. This is something that a dialogue can fix. It might be that need more." " I know how these things work. Once a pack pulls out, the rest will follow suit, which will cripple the pack's eco
Martin pushed the door open and Nicky looked at the door to see the intruder. Martin frowned," Hey, Mom. I heard your voice from my room. What is going on?" He feigned ignorance.Nicky pointed an accusing finger at Reagan whose head was bent." This girl stole a cologne. Did you know that my ring was stolen?" She asked in anger.Martin's eyes widened in shock, " The one that the king gave you as a gift?" He asked. His mom had always cherished that ring and never allowed anyone to touch it. She only wore it on special occasions. " Who do you suspect?" He was genuinely interested.She gave Reagan a wicked stare, " It must be the maids of course. Only she and Cisca works in the house." " We don't have proof. I don't think they did it." " Martin, don't start. These girls are thieves." She maintained eye contact with Reagan who averted her gaze.Martin turned to Reagan, " Whose perfume did you wear? Speak the trusty and just maybe my mother can be kind to you." Reagan was almost cryin
Alden merely raised a brow when he saw Martin hugging Cisca. From where he hid behind a stall, he watched Martin plant a kiss on her forehead.Cisca waved with a shy smile, " I'll see you later." She said." Alright." Martin pumped his fists in the air after Cisca walked away, causing Alden to smile, he couldn't blame him. Cisca was very beautiful and any man would be lucky to have her attention. Cisca walked towards him, " How long have you been standing there?" She inquired with a quirky smile on her lips." Too long to know that his eyes are on you. What game are you playing?" He responded as lowered his head to capture her mouth in a greeting kiss. Cisca blinked slowly as her senses seemed to scramble from the kiss." Huh?" She said in a daze as she tried to remember the question. Alden's eyes shone with mischief, as he beamed with male pride, that he still had this effect on her.Cisca slapped his arm playfully, " You are enjoying this, aren't you?" She pouted.Alden let out
