~CODY~

I rushed into the hospital as if my life depended on it, heading towards the room where Rain had been admitted. Upon reaching the door, I paused, took a deep breath, and entered the room. "Rain," I called out, scanning the room anxiously. Initially, I couldn't spot him as my eyes darted around, but when I turned toward the window, he was—seated in a wheelchair, gazing outside.

Shock gripped me as I observed him; his back was turned, yet a palpable sadness emanated. Guilt flooded over me—it was my fault. If I hadn't caused it, he wouldn't be in this position now.

"Rain," I called his name, expecting him to turn around, smile, and acknowledge me. Instead, he remained seated, unmoving. With measured steps, I approached him, each one laden with the weight of regret. "Rain," I repeated until I stood in front of him.

His eyes were wide open, fixed on the hospital courtyard below. "Rain," I embraced him tightly, tears streaming down my face. "I'm sorry," I whispered, holding him as if

    ~Rain~ A week ago, My eyes fluttered open, and the brightness of the light above me almost blinded me, but I shut my eyes to adjust. When I opened them again, I could finally adapt to the brightness and looked around, noticing I was in a white room. The beeping machine beside me resounded in my head, making me wince in pain. It was too loud, and it felt like my head would explode.I stared around, coughed as I sniffed in the bleach scent, and winced in pain as my heart continued to ache terribly."Cody," I called his name, expecting to see him around me, but he was nowhere near. "Cody," I muttered his name again, but he was still absent. I coughed again, stretched my hand forward, and rubbed it gently. "Cody, where are you?" I called out, but he remained out of sight.Where could he be? I wondered as I expected that he would come out of his hiding place and talk to me.I bit my lower lip, hiding the pain I felt at that moment. My back ached severely, reminding me of the fighting inc

    ~Rain~Present I lowered my head as I heard him crying outside of the room. The tears flooded my eyes, and I let them out, holding onto the necklace around my neck.I hated that I shouted at him, but what could he possibly want with a mate who was paralyzed? There was nothing good about me anymore. I couldn't even look at him properly when he came."Rain, you don't have to cry anymore. This is all for the best," my mother tried to console me. "You are going to be fine and won't have to worry about the crown prince any longer."I shook my head in response. "I have every right to worry about him because I love him, and I hate that I am not with him right now. I... I shouted at him," I cried and rubbed my face."Everything has ended between us. He doesn't have any lycan again, and the mate bond between us is no longer there. Everything is over now."My father cleared his throat in the room, and then he spoke up. "You have to remember what the alpha king said to you a few days ago. I hop

    ~Cody~ I frowned at the paper in my hand and scoffed for the umpteenth time. I rubbed my hands together and heaved a deep sigh. "You are asking me to say this in front of everyone, right?" I yelled at my parents, holding the paper up in front of them. "You want me to lie about my relationship with Rain, which I've already told you I will not be doing. So why are you forcing me to do it?" My mother rubbed her face, tired of my arguing about the paper, while my father maintained a stoic look and didn't respond. "So, this is how it will be, right?" I asked them and then chuckled. "I am supposed to lie in front of everyone after you ruined our lives!" I shouted, dropping the paper to the ground and stomping on it. "I am not going to be reading this!" I declared. My father stood up and nodded at his Gamma, Uncle Tristan, who walked towards him with another piece of paper. "Thank you, Tristan," he said, receiving the letter and shoving it into my hand. "I don't care if you continue to act

I wanted to wipe the smile from the elder's faces. They all act as if they don't have a secret and judge me for being different. They knew that I would do everything I could to become the crown prince and my father, who wanted to hold the title of the perfect royal family. I hated that I was born into royalty, and if I had the chance, I would change my fate and become someone different. Perhaps someone born into a different family. "Your Highness," I said through gritted teeth as I bowed my head to my father. "Welcome, crown prince; please stand by me," he said. I dragged my legs towards his throne and stood beside him. If I had a choice, I wouldn't be there. My uncle Kylan, on his right side, smiled at me, but I didn't respond to his smile and instead maintained my stoic look. I stared into the eyes of all the elders wh

    ~Rain~I held the phone in my hand, clutching it pretty tight. I shouldn't have said that to him and regretted ever speaking to him like that. If I didn't pretend that I didn't want to talk to him, then he would find out about my plans, and it would lead to a lot of things like him trying to stop me from harming his parents. I didn't want that to happen because I wanted the both of us to find peace. "Oh, Cody," I muttered under my breath as I placed the phone on the bed beside me, staring at the ceiling and questioning my decision. Did I make the right decision, or was it a selfish one? I knew Cody wouldn't be happy if anything happened to his parents, but I honestly wished everything would be resolved and I wouldn't have to worry about us anymore. I picked up the phone again and then scrolled down to his name, pressing the messages he had sent me. I had ignored each message but couldn't stop reading them. They were cute and hard to miss.

    ~Cody~ If there was another word for a bad day, it was how I felt then. My eyes were turning, and the world felt like two as I couldn't stop thinking about how Rain had reacted when he saw me and Tanisha together. I had expected that he would at least show concern and act as if he was angry, but instead, he looked away and didn't even bother looking at me again. I was infuriated that he didn't try to show stories about my concerns and thoughts; what an annoying person, i thought as i stared at him. That morning of resumption, my father suddenly announced that Tanisha and I would go to school together. It came as a surprise to me when I saw her already waiting in the car for me. "Your Highness, my name is Tanisha, and I……." "Don't bother me," I quickly turned her down, unready to listen to her annoying talk. Even though I only heard her for the first time, her attitude was already infuriating me. Tanisha is a beautiful red-haired lady who didn't interest me because I would never b

Today had been hectic, and it had been one of the worst days of my life because we were both acting like strangers to one another, and even in the elevator, he had said such cruel words to me without realizing that everything I was doing was for his sake. If only he knew, I thought and rubbed my forehead. I knocked on the door, and when the door opened, I gasped when I saw who was at the entrance. "Asher, you are my roommate?" I asked him, and he nodded in response. "I was shocked when I saw the luggage being brought into this room, and then I found out that you are my roommate. Come on in!" he whispered, and I smiled at him as I wheeled myself into the room. "Let's be good roommates, alright," he told me and walked to his bed. "if you need any help from me, I will be happy to help you, and since I already knew that you were going to be in the room with me, I had helped arranged your bed and laid it the best that I ca

    ~CODY~I shouldn't have come here because he was here, and it was suffocating to be around him. I wouldn't say I liked how he smiled at everyone else while ignoring me, pretending I wasn't there. I heaved a deep sigh and then looked around me, trying so hard to stop thinking about him, and it worked when Tanisha started talking about us. "We are going to get married soon," she shouted excitedly, clapping her hands together. She then placed a hand on my shoulder. "I am happy that I am going to be with the prince because I have always admired him, and when I found out that we are going to be together, I was happy about the news, and now, I have to say that I am excited about it." Asher and Amara exchanged looks, but none said anything as they turned to look at Rain, giving him a pitiful look as if he was the only one affected by what was happening. They had all forgotten that I was also affected by everything happening. None of them cared because they believed that since I was the cr

    RainTwo years later,I frowned as I checked the watch in my hand for the time and hissed again. The plane should have landed, but it hadn't, which made me question why I had arrived two hours earlier. I had come when the sun was about to set, and now, it was dark, yet the plane showed no sign of landing.I shook my legs, stood up, and rubbed my hand on my forehead. I couldn't concentrate and only think about seeing him again after two months. That was the longest we had been away. He had gone on a royal prince's assignment, even though he was not the crown prince anymore. I should have gone with him, but I stayed back to finish some school projects, leading to our separation for two long months.I missed him so much, and even though we did video calls, chatted, and had phone calls, I still couldn't stop thinking about him, knowing that I was going to bed alone without his warm hands around my waist. Today was his birthday, and I had planned a massive surprise for him, which he would

    ~Cody~ Three weeks later,"Are you ready?" he asked, wrapping his arms around my waist."I've been waiting for this day all my life, and I'm happy that finally, I am going to see it happen with you." I turned around to face him and kissed him on the lips. The kiss was short, and I soon turned back to face the mirror. "What do you think the world will think about us, Rain?" I rubbed my face and adjusted my tie as I stared at myself in the mirror. This was it. I had made the decision, and there was no turning back. I made the decision myself when we arrived from the in-between because it was my decision, and I would never regret it.Today was the day I would reveal myself to the world, not just myself. I was also showing my mate for everyone to see."Everyone must accept us for what we are, Cody, and if they don't, we can always run away without caring about what anyone thinks. This is our time, and now that both our parents have agreed to it, who else can stop us from becoming what we

    ~Rain~As I released the arrow, my eyes followed it anxiously as it soared toward the source of the voice. The voice unleashed a scream, accompanied by growling, and a bright light emerged, revealing Gasin.Having envisioned Gasin as an ugly creature, I was surprised to find a beautiful red-haired woman. The only features distinguishing her as a goddess were a mark on her forehead and six fingers. This unique trait instilled a sense of fear in me, uncertain of what might unfold."You found the arrow of light!" she growled, placing her hand on the arrow in her heart. "You stupid boy!" Gasin pointed toward me, and the monstrous creatures ran from behind the Alpha King and Luna Queen, advancing on me.In the chaos, one of the creatures slashed across my chest, causing me to groan in pain. Before I could recover, another struck my back, forcing me to drop the bow from my hand."Cody!" I heard my name shouted. "What the hell are you doing!" Cody screamed. "Don't hurt him, please. He didn't

    ~Cody~I smiled brightly when I saw him heading towards me. He was here, which means he passed the test with me. ''Rain!" I shouted his name and rushed to hug him as soon as our eyes met. "I am glad we both made it," I chuckled and kissed his forehead. "I had thought that maybe something bad had happened, but here you are, smiling brightly at me. I am happy that we were able to work it out."Rain smiled and embraced me warmly, not letting go. "I had thought that something had happened to you, but I am happy that you are here, and there is nothing wrong with you," he muttered."Me too," I told him and sighed.A bright light suddenly appeared, breaking us apart, and from the bright light appeared a man dressed in a black robe with red patterns. The man's silver hair shone brightly as he approached us, carrying a powerful aura to behold."You both have succeeded, and I am proud of you," he said, bursting into laughter. "In all the years of being a master here, you are the first that woul

It's like he was separated from me; no one needed to tell me that the test of desires had started.‘’You are weak!’’ A voice sounded behind me as I stood amid the diamonds, not taking another step because I had no idea where I was. ‘’Nobody wants you and Rain to be together. You are only a liability to him, and the sooner you realize this, the better.’’ The voice shouted, his voice resounding in the room.‘’Who are you?’’ I demanded to know the voice that sounded menacing and powerful enough to intimidate me. ‘’I won’t ask you again, who the hell are you!’’ I screamed back at the voice.‘’This is why you and Rain can never be together,’’ Caden shouted as he appeared before me. ‘’You are too weak, unable to defend the kingdom, and you caused the disappearance of our parents. Everything that is happening is all because of you. This is your fault

    ~Rain~ Finally, we were there, and it was the last phase, meaning that we would face Gasin sooner or later once we got what we wanted. That meant it would be the end of her. She wouldn’t bother us any longer, and everyone would be freed from her cruel rule. It also meant I could be together with Cody again without worrying about what others think about us."Are you ready?" I asked him. "This is the last place, and here, anything might happen. Promise me that you will return to me?" I asked, and he nodded in response, grabbing my shirt collar and pulling me into his arms."You also promised me that everything would be fine and you wouldn’t die in there?"I nodded in response, and he leaned in, kissing me quickly. I kissed him back, cut short by Teo, who had appeared from nowhere behind us. "I believed that you two are already done with your lovey-dovey moments," he laughed, and then his tone suddenly changed. "You also need to know that even though you might have promised yourself to

    ~CODY~ My eyes widened in shock as I watched him fall. ‘’Rain!’’ I shouted his name. It shouldn’t have to end this way, I thought. He didn’t have to sacrifice his life because of me, and now, he expected that I would be happy that he was gone. I could feel the rage building inside of me. It was just like the heat emanating from the boiling fire. I was angry at myself; it wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t fallen. ‘’Everything is because of me!’’ I screamed and hit my chest repeatedly. ‘’if only I had tried my best to convince him then…..’’ I let out another scream as I placed my hand on the ground, tears flooding my eyes. How was I even supposed to live without him by my side? He was selfish, that I believed. He wouldn’t have left me alone and fell to the fire if he were not selfish. He was a selfish man who only thought of himself and not others. If he was not selfish, he should have let me go instead; now, he was gone. ‘’Rain!’’ I leaned against the edge of the step and

    ~Rain~ ‘’watch where you put your feet!’’ I shouted to Cody as we started climbing the valley. It was hard even to walk perfectly because the steps were not straight, and that was not all; it was dark, and the only glint of light we could rely on was the light that had penetrated one of the holes in the valley's walls. It was challenging to walk perfectly, and holding onto the wall was our only support. ‘’soon, we will reach the other side,’’ Cody assured me and laughed. ‘’And then, we will return with the sword, and it will spell the end for Gasin.’’ I should have been laughing alongside him, but I didn’t find the urge to laugh because I thought about many things that could go wrong. I feared something dangerous might happen to us In the valley because Teo had mentioned something about a boiling valley, but I had not seen anything related. I was starting to get worried about what could go wrong. ‘’are you alright? You are not…..ah!’’ he screamed as he tripped and fell.

I couldn't bear to be responsible for wasting precious time, especially knowing Rain would worry. As my legs trembled, they eventually gave way, and I found myself on the ground. "Cody!" Rain rushed over; concern etched across his face. "What's happening? Are you alright?" Gasping for breath, sweat streaming down my face, I shook my head. "I'm not doing well," I confessed, sighing heavily. "I..." Pausing, I noticed the worry in Rain's eyes. "I don't want to impede our progress, and now..." "Mortals," Teo interjected. "I wouldn't blame you if you're getting tired. After all, this is not your home. Don't worry; I'll get you something to eat, and there's a stream down there." He pointed in the right direction. "You can go there and drink some water. I'll fetch food for both of you." With that, he flew away. "Can you walk?
