Austin was trying catch up to Agatha, but she kept running further and further away from him. She took a huge leap and went across the river. Austin could not jump that distance like she did. Even though she was not as big as he was, she was lighter than he was. Not only that but she had more agility than he was. Her small and petite size allowed her to speed up and take a longer leap than he does."Agatha!" shouted Austin. He noticed that she looked back slightly but didn't turn to look at him.Agatha, not wanting to hear his explanation of why he told her sister, kept running. She didn’t want to know what happened during their moment together was. She didn’t want to know anything. So, in fear of being hurt she kept running. She let her hind legs push her further and further away. Away from him. Away from her sister. Away from everything around her.Austin stopped chasing after her."Your majesty are you going to keep after her?" asked Ash.“No,” said Austin, with a weary tone. His h
Grump seeing that Agatha ran away from Austin was probably due to a misunderstanding said, “It doesn't seem like she wants to talk to you now.""What? What do you mean?" asked Austin. “Wow, are you that dense?”“I mean it’s obvious something happened that she ran off right.”“Yeah.”“So, it means she needs some moment to herself.”“Oh. I guess so.”“So, let her calm down and then talk to her.”“Alright. I can do that,” said Austin, rubbing his hands into his face. "Hey it’s alright. We all made a mistake.”“Yeah, not as big as me though,” pouted Austin.“Aww, don’t give yourself so much credit.”“Pfft.”“You know some woman likes to have their time alone."“Yeah.” Austin sighs as it’s true that he should give Agatha some space. He wanted to tell her that in the past he had talked to her sister. Alone, but not secretly. Even near kissing Juniper. And of course, told her sister that he wanted her to be his mate. And asked her sister to wait for him. But now, he doesn't feel that way a
"Humph. Beat her," said Prince Frank. “Wait!” said Austin.“King Austin, if you’re not willing to get justice for the lady, then I will. I will get her the truth.”Austin frowned at his words.Juniper was wiping away her tears. Prince Frank smiled as he now had a chance to prove his worthy of this beautiful princess. He will make her see him as a good mate. He raised his hands and order his men to take the elderly woman to the center of the stage for punishment.“Please, please,” begged the elderly woman.“Make sure she doesn’t escape,” said Prince Frank.“Yes,” said one of the soldiers.“Wait!” exclaimed Juniper. She stepped in front of Prince Frank and said, “Let my men do it. Since she’s part of my clan, it only make sense if it’s her own wolf that is punishing her.”The elderly woman gasp for air as she saw that she was going to get a severe beating. “Alright,” said Prince Frank. He nodded his man away and the Grey Wolf’s solider came to grab the elderly woman by the arms and d
“Are you going to admit to your crime!” shouted Prince Frank.“But I really didn’t do it,” lowly uttering her Nana.“Whip her again!” exclaimed Prince Frank.Austin was on the sideline watching the elderly woman. He thought with a scowl on his brows, “Damn it, they’re beating her to death and they’re not giving her a chance. They’re not listening to her.” He was clenching his fist into a tight ball now.Juniper on the other hand sat next to Austin and was snickering at Nana. She looked at Austin and eyed him with a sneer of innocence.Austin unclenched his fist and nodded back at her.Juniper taking that as an acknowledgement of her, leaned into him and place her head on his shoulder.Austin didn’t draw back. He just stay in his position, letting Juniper rest in his embrace. His eyes was focusing on the elderly woman before him. He was trying not to show any displease.On the inside Austin was raging. “They’re basically forcing the elderly woman now. Making her admit to a crime she di
Agatha looked at the soldier. "You. You killed her." "No. No. No, it wasn't me. I was just following orders," stuttered the soldier. The soldier pointed at Juniper. Agatha stared at Juniper. Juniper backed away and held onto Austin's arm. Agatha shook her head in disbelief. She couldn't believe her fake husband have helped her wicked sister to killed Nana. Stabbing pains of needles struck her heart. She was going mad with hatred.The solider who whipped her to death started to panic. He was quivering in his shoes. His hands were still shaking as he pointed at Juniper and Austin. “I didn’t mean to. I didn’t mean to kill her. I didn’t think she was that fragile.”“She’s an elderly woman with a poor health. One could tell how weak she is from the way she looked. The way she’s dressed and you’re saying that she looks healthy to you?” she asked.The soldier shook his head.“It’s a rather pathetic excuse for a soldier if you ask me,” said Agatha, firmly.Prince Frank looked and saw the be
That night Agatha got into her tent. Inside she was surprised that Austin was waiting for her. He was sitting at a table with a small candlelight, reading his reports. She looked away from him. Austin looked up and saw Agatha walking in. "Agatha,” he said. He quickly got up from his seat and walked to her. He tried to reach for her hands, but she flinched away from him. He grimaced as she wasn’t willing to let him close. He have to calm her down and make her trust him again. Looking at her physical appearance it looked like she was drenched from the water’s mist. "Are you cold? Do you need a hot bath? I can-" Austin didn’t even finish his words. Agatha, not bothered by his pretend care and walked away from him. Feeling like she ignored him, Austin didn’t say anything and stared at her in silence. He wish he could say something to her, but what? He have no clue and no idea on this kind of subject. He was dumbfounded as to how to calm her. This scenario is different from before. He
FLASHBACK TO THE AFTERNOON"What's the meaning of this?" roared King Leonardo."Fa-Father," said Juniper."I was merely gone for a few hours, and you have caused so much problem!""Please cease your anger," said Orlando."Father, that stinky old woman stole my jew, so I wanted to teach her a lesson," cried Juniper."Juniper, I thought I told you not to touch her. Whatever she have done wrong, you should have let me deal with it.""I couldn't. I couldn’t wait, father. I wanted my justice.” "Why?""Because she deserves to be punished. For stealing from the royals, she deserves to be beaten.""HUMPH! You disobey me and beat her to death.""How was I supposed she would die from a few beatings?" exclaimed Juniper. "She's nearly sixty years old, how could she not die from the strength of four young soldiers smacking her with a rod of whip?" He threw his cup and smacked Juniper in the head."My lady," said Carol. She gasped at the bloody sight. "Oh my god. You're bleeding."Juniper touched
"King Leonardo," said Austin, looking at his father-in-law. "What is it?" answered King Leonardo, "I wanted to ask you, about the letter.”“What letter?” King Leonardo sighs as there was more problems than he expected.Austin handed the letter to Grump, who then in turn handed it to Orlando to give to his king.King Leonardo scan through it and said, “What about it?”“I wanted to let you know that it wasn’t my wife who written the letter.”Stroking his long beard, King Leonardo’s eyebrows narrowed at him. He thought to himself that Austin was a young and very smart man indeed. No wonder he was able to manage such a pack at with such success. He is completely aware of all his surroundings. He was able to find out things that is kept hidden away from everyone. And for Austin to find out he must have someone working for him within his palace. He must have a spy around him for him to know such things, But since Agatha is his wife, he understands why he is protective of her. Which to him
“How could you be so reckless,” he said to her but at a distance.“Well, it wasn’t my fault, was it,” said Lily, fixing her dress.“You knew that sending out that signal could triggered the enemy to find you, yet you did it to have Peter find us.”“Yes. If I didn’t, then we wouldn’t be found, and…” she flipped her head to him. “We wouldn’t be able to stop the Mystical Dragon when we did.”Solomon lifted her off the ground and placed her on his lap. “Please, stop trying to make yourself vulnerable.”“I wasn’t.”“Yes, by putting yourself in danger, you are baited.”“But,” said Lily, wrapping her arms around his neck.“But what,” asked Solomon, daring to want to hear more.“I got you.”Solomon smiled at her remarks. He licked her lips and begged for more. He sucked on her tongue till they were a dripping mess.“Solomon,” puffed Lily.“Yes?” he said, breathlessly.“Seriously, we are running out of time, no more sex,” she panted against his lips, but wouldn’t let go of him either.“Humph! T
PRESENT Solomon grabbed Lily by the waist and tilted her chin to him. “If you ever do something that foolish again, I swear, I will-” Lily started crying. Of course she was sad for what she did, but she couldn’t live with the pain. Living life without him is more painful than living a life alone. Solomon saw that he have made her upset again and said, “I’m sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry.” Lily whimpered into his chest. Solomon patted her on the back to soothe her from crying. After Lily have calmed down he nibble on her lips and said, “I only said those things to you to get you away from me.” Kiss her here and there and continues woeing her. “I was only trying to save you.” Lily’s tears fell once again. Solomon deepened his kiss. “I swear I didn’t mean anything that I've said to you.” Those words just made it worse, not in a bad way, but in a good way. The kind of feeling where you are happy when you eat ice cream on a hot day. She was warming up rapidly as she knew
“The Mystical Dragon have appeared!” shouted Peter.Solomon knew that the creature was coming, but he didn’t expect it to come this fast.“Solomon, we have to stop it now!” cried Peter.Solomon summoned his magic, but he was still injured and couldn’t fully conjured his trap.Lily looked at the Mystical Dragon. It was dark and cold. Looking at it makes one’s soul sorrow beyond measures.“Don’t look at it!” shouted Solomon.Lily looked away. She wiped away her tears.“Whatever you do, don’t look it in the eyes. Nothing good will come of it.”Peter snapped himself from staring at the creature and said, “Solomon, seal it! Seal it now!”Solomon tried to complete the incantation, but he couldn’t. He was running out of energy. His wound was bleeding internally. “Solomon! What are you doing!”Sasha standing by said, “Stop shouting at him! He’s hurt.”Peter was shocked by the news. “Solomon… Solomon is that true?”Solomon look tiredly at his friend. “Yes.”Peter was inhaling small breaths of
“SHIT!” huffed Solomon. He was feeling the heating wave washing over him.“What? What is it?” asked Lily, with worry.“It’s- It’s kicking in.”“You mean the drug- The sexual need.”“Yes, what else,” questioned Solomon, trying to hold his sanity correctly.“Fuck!” swears Lily.“Damn! Damn it!” howl Solomon.“Oh, what do I do? What do I do?” asked Lily, circling him.“I’m running out of time.” Solomon spat out some blood.“Solomon! Oh, god!”“Fuck! Whoever did this wanted its victim to feel immediate urges as they are dying. This person didn’t want to waste any time. These dicks! Fucking while dying! What a disgusting joke!” he curses loudly.“Solomon, what- what do we do? What do I do?” she asked in low panic voice. This is the first time in her life where she didn’t know what to do. She was clueless as she didn’t know how to handle such a hot and intense situations.“What else?” expelled Solomon, breathlessly.“What?” Lily asked puzzlingly.“Sex,” he grunted. “We need to have sex.”Li
PRESENT“I was able to dodge the arrow,” said Solomon,“But I- I was- I was..." stuttered Lily. "Was, what?""I really was trying to save you.”He let an amusement of "Ah." Lily let out an unsatisfied gesture. “I mean it. I had no bad intentions whatsoever." “Right.""I mean how was I supposed to know that you were- you know- dodge it."Solomon tapped his head and said, "I got everything calculated in my head already. I knew where the directions of the arrow was going and where it was heading. I was going to miss it by a mile, until... well..."Lily pouted as he was directing her mistakes. Solomon grabbed her hand and slid it up his chest. “My calcuations was to make sure that it missed me and past right by you. So neither of us gets hit.""Oh, you can do that? Wow," said Lily, shockingly. "Ah-huh.""Well, I mean you're- the amazing and wonderful Solomon, so of course you can. It's a piece of cake to you I bet." Solomon leaned into her and said, “I timed it perfectly without any
FLASHBACKThe sun was rising quickly into mid-day.“Father, do you think we can catch that fawn?” asked Solomon.“Fawn? What for?” asked Austin.“I don’t know, to raise, I guess.”“Sure,” came Austin’s reply.Solomon was closing in on the fawn. "I almost got it father!" Just as soon as he was close enough, his senses went off. Something was coming fast at him. A fast flying arrow was coming towards them. “FATHER!” he shouted. He jumped into the air to dodge the arrow. Austin, seeing the arrow dodged it by a mere inch. He halted his horse from going any further and made a turn back to camp.Austin and Solomon rode quickly to base.“What is it?” asked Agatha, seeing their rush. “We got ambushed,” said Austin.“Ambushed,” frowned Agatha.“Yes. Now hurry, we must leave back to the fortress." Agatha nodded her head and hurried Lily along.“Grump!” summoned Austin.“Yes, my king,” said Grump, flashing in front of Austin.“Sound the alarm.”Grump, shocked by his alpha's command said, “My
FLASHBACK- 1 YEAR AND 6 MONTHS AGO (PLEASE REFER BACK TO END OF EPILOGUE SHORT STORY 8) From beyond that measure stood a handsome man. He was peeking at her. Solomon was staring down at his mate, Lily. Peeking at the woman who haunts his visions day and night. His hand pushed down a few branches to get a better view of her. Wow. She’s gotten more beautiful. But he wasn’t sure how that’s possible for she’s always been beautiful. From head to toe she’s a always gorgeous looking. Not one ounce could falter her fair look. In every single aspects no one comes close to her. She's that beautiful. The wind brushed by and Lily’s hair drifted around, making her look like an angel. Solomon lost his breath and forgotten to breathe for a moment. Damn! She’s stealing my breath every single time I see her. “Solomon!” shrill Peter.“Shh!” hushed Solomon.“What? What is it?” asked Peter, he was angling himself down. He was trying to be stealth as to not be noticed. He looked around to see where the
BEDCHAMBER Solomon sat at the edge of the bed. He was nearly dressed. From his waist down he was fully clothed.Flora finally woke up and grabbed the comforter to cover her naked body. She was sore in places she didn’t think possible. She grabbed onto her stomach as he was too rough with her last night. It was a night filled with pain and pleasure. She swears she wouldn’t be able to walk with the punishment he gave her last night.Solomon’s back was against her. He seemed to be concentrating.She study him. He seems to be thinking. Deeply in his mind, he seems to be lost. She didn’t stir as she was afraid she might disrupt his train of thoughts.Solomon’s voice came without him looking at her, “Are you done?”She gripped harder onto the sheet.With her silence he turned his head slightly to look at her. “So, when does it end?”“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Solomon flipped around so fast that she didn’t even get a chance to respond. His lips cracked upon his still face. Hi
Flora was being handed off to another man. This man lifted her into his arms. She could hear him chuckling with amusement. No. No! No! She flanges her legs in refusal of going with this man. As she struggles the man nearly dropped her. She felt her body nearly touching the ground, but she didn’t hit the hard ground, instead she was being lifted. High and above she felt like flying and onto the man’s broad shoulder she went. The man held her firmly without losing any grip.“Let go! Let go of me!” she shouted.She didn’t know what was going on. One minute she was in her house then everything went dark. A misty fragrant slide into her room and she was knocked out from the drug.THIRTY MINUTES AGOIt was dark. It was cold. Not a sound echoed the room. A thick black cloth folded over her eyes. She couldn’t see anything. Her hands were tied and bonded together.“Take her away,” said a man with a deep voice.Flora was scared now. She didn’t want to be kidnapped. She didn’t want to be taken a
