View More10 months later Toady is finally, the day of my coronation, to the delight of the officials. Our lives have been so incredibly crazy over these past few months, not only having to deal with the investigations swirling around The Dark Secrets Of The Realms book. Which due to the main players in that situation, such as Hannah, Jonathan and the former King and Queen, it wasn’t such an open and closed case. I had to sit and talk for hours with so many officials, they had me go over everything which happened and all the information that I knew! But in doing so, they were able to find where Hannah had buried her mother so she could be laid to rest. She had been in the castle grounds the entire time, under the huge tree they both explained was important to their mother.We had a huge ceremony for his mother which millions of people attended, it was clear that so many people loved Axel’s mother while she was Queen but also after. We also laid Hannah to rest with her parents, I know she made
After a few more moments on the roof, Axel helps me to climb down the ladder which was rather difficult, this ball gown was not made for climbing up and down industrial ladders! The smile on his face from the news I had told him still on his lips, I’m so happy that he’s this ecstatic for us having a baby together. But the smile soon leaves his lips once the official from before walks over, clipboard in hand not looking very happy. “Can somebody please inform me why a number of people are practicing flying from this castle recently, have I somehow missed the invitation?!” He asks clearly very upset over what has happened, I mean there has been four different people meet their end that way. “This is a matter you and I will discuss privately, wait here.” Axel tells the man before turning to me, I smile glad he was going to talk with that man because I wouldn’t have a clue what to say if it were me! Axel smiles placing a kiss on my lips before turning to the man, they both walk to the
Hannah continues to drag me out of the bedroom, at first the empty hallways confused me but I soon remember what I was told from the first ceremony. Everyone was cleared out so there is a clear path for the Queen and the Beta to reach where the coronation will take place, that is a huge problem for me right now. Hannah pulls me right over to the end of a hall to a window at the top of the roof, hang on she’s taking me to the flipping roof! “Climb it.” She growls out at me throwing me into said ladder, I was absolutely terrified so I do exactly what she wants me to. I place my shaky hands on the cold metal of the ladder and begin to climb it, my fear only climbing higher as my body does the same thing. I know I only had this chance to get somebody to help me. “Axel help, Hannah is the person that was helping Jonathan all along. She’s taking me to the roof!” I quickly mind-link him as my head emerges from the window and out into the daylight, this is when I also realise something te
It has been around a week since the event on the balcony, not only the castle but the whole Kingdom taking a hit from what had happened. I haven’t done much else but cry, Colby sacrificed himself to save my life! I didn’t even get to thank him or say goodbye, he was there one minute and gone the next.I know he said he would protect me with his life on multiple different occasions, but never did I believe he would actually have to do something such as that! Axel told me in the moment Colby didn’t hesitate, he heard of what was happening and bolted to my room only leaving the hospital hours before. He mind-linked all of the guards, Joey and Axel explaining his plan. Before anyone had time to talk him out of it, he had ran and tackled Jonathan off the balcony. The saddest part was when I attempted to reach out to his family to break the news, none of them seemed to care even the slightest. They told me he had been estranged from his family for years, some even told me he deserved what
Axel and I had just had dinner together, he still had one last meeting before he could fully be done with his day. I had a clear schedule as always, so I went to the bedroom to start getting ready for the evening. I was laying on my stomach reading a book when the door opens, Hannah walking in sending me a smile as she went. “I hope I’m not intruding.” She smiles hanging by the door for a second, I smile shaking my head placing the book which I was reading on the bedside table. “Joey is in a meeting with Axel but I didn’t feel like being alone, so I thought I’d come see how you’re doing, we haven’t spent much time together lately, with you and your many adventures.” She laughs closing the main door behind her, I laugh as she begins to walk around the room smiling. “Yeah, my life has been anything but calm recently.” I smile as she takes a look outside of the window, this would have been fine if I wasn’t instantly reminded of the vision which I had. “Are my guards still outside, it’s
The next day I was released from the hospital, but was given strict instructions to rest and not fight men in cupboards! Axel took this literally and told me I was to stay in bed until I was back to normal, I was very against this idea now I know who one of the men I have been searching for is. But Axel wasn’t having any of it, he told me this whole search can’t continue without the book which he has hidden anyway. So I was forced to sit in bed all day, but he did head to the library and picked me up a ton of books to read while he had to work. I did really appreciate that gesture, but I would still much rather be finding this guy. I also spoke with my guards and apologised for getting them in trouble, none of them seemed angry at all and told me they understood why I did what I did. I had just read through my third book today, where I place my head against the head board looking out into the distance. The mountain which my dad and his people live catching my attention, I wonder if
A ringing noise fills my hearing, my heart pounding in my chest as I slowly open my eyes. I take a look down at the ground where I discover I’m laying in dry mud, pitch black darkness filling my vision. A woman’s scream filling the area I was in, but I knew what was happening. “Long time no see.” Elliot smiles looking down at me, I roll my eyes as he lifts his hand down to help me stand, I take his offer and get to my feet. “I see you’ve came a long way on this quest of yours, you even found out who you really are.” He smiles as I wipe the dirt from my trousers away, I mean it’s felt like it’s been forever since we’d seen each other, but it’s only been a few weeks. “The man I’m after is Jonathan right, he’s the man which killed you and is after the book.” I say just wanting to get that fact confirmed, I know how quickly this dream or vision normally, lasts with Elliot. “You’re correct that he was the man which killed me, he is also the man which is after the book but, he isn’t work
I spoke with Louise for a few more moments until she had to leave, we briefly spoke about the topic of me still hunting down who killed Elliot. She was overjoyed to hear I hadn’t given up finding who took him away, but she also offered for me to head to Elliot’s home office to see if I can find any clues there. I thanked her and said it was a offer I would take up once Colby is all healed, I know he wouldn’t want me to take anyone else on the secret missions. I was now stood alone in the corridor once again, I didn’t want to rush the guards visiting Colby. This meant my mind had time to wonder, if Hannah and this Jonathan were childhood sweethearts, why did she react the way that she did when we saw him? She acted as though he could blow up in a second, I wonder how he reacted when Hannah and Joey found each other? But what still isn’t making any sense to me is why he would be going after Justin? What would Jonathan want with the book? There are a ton more questions than answers in t
I follow my guards deeper into the castle, we begin to walk down corridors which I had never before. But within a few short moments, I saw the sign for the castle hospital which told me we were going the right way. Jordan walks through the door first to make an initial check, before telling me it was safe to enter. I send him a smile walking through the open door, most of the doctors and patients alike sending me shocked expressions. I soon stop at the front desk, the woman typing eagerly on her computer. She turns to look at me for a second before looking back at what she was doing, but her brain seems to register and her eyes snap to me once again. “Your majesty, I apologise for not helping you sooner. What can I do for you?” She asks in a worried type voice, where I send her a smile to let her know I wasn’t at all mad. “I’m here to see a friend of mine, one of my guards called Colby, I’m sorry I don’t know his last name.” I say knowing how ridiculous that was, how many people he
“Evermore! You worthless piece of shit, you’re burning the dinner!” My step father Patrick, shouts up the stairs to me, I knew by the tone in his voice that I needed to move. I had to run up to change my top as I spilt hot sauce on it, I must have forgotten to turn the hob off while I was away. The sauce was burning my skin so I didn’t think, I’ll do better next time. As I arrive in the kitchen, Patrick stood there with his arms crossed looking at me with a stern look. I move passed him and to the dinner, only to find that the dinner wasn’t burned at all but looked around about done. “You’re lucky it’s not burnt, you and I would be having one of our talks if it did.” He tells me from behind, I gulp fear making its way through me as I nod my head.I knew what he meant by talk, I wasn’t in the mood to have to deal with one of those today. Not that I’m ever in the mood to have one, I wanted to just make this dinner and head to bed without any trouble today. He looks me up and down wit
