#Chapter 61 Orb

last update Last Updated: 2023-02-17 16:27:16

I don’t have time to comb through my emotions and see what I think of King Harvey. How much does he love me to break protocol so we can go to this Fate Party? He is mad at me, but I am mad at him so is that fair? He listened to me but didn’t understand. Did I understand him? Of course, I would keep him away from a war zone. That is all he was trying to do… but is he overreacting?

I hear King Harvey punching the punching bag in our training room. One hit after another, each grunt of force he exerts echoes through the hallway. I wonder how loud we are when we make love… maybe that is why he jumped at buying our cottage.

Walking into the training room, I hear clear as day the power of his punches against the bag. Each punch is an impossibly hard hit against the bag. I walk by him, and watch his fist go straight through the bag.

King Harvey’s face is ashen and sweaty as he stares down at me. In this harsh light, I see the bags under his eyes clearly.

“Are you okay?” I open my arms to

    As we lay in bed, I let my mind wander for a moment. Never did I believe I would be in bed, naked with a werewolf king, let alone being married to a man that would kill and die for me truthfully. In this moment of peace and glory of my orb, my heart beats powerfully in my chest. I have gone from maid to married in no time. I do love King Harvey. I understand him wanting to protect me. Cradling my husband’s sleeping head to my bare chest and seeing the soft silver glares of his scars from war, my heart sinks to the soles of my feet. “I am sorry you went to war, King Harvey. I am sorry I fought you. You must be so scared. It is hard to picture a man like you as scared…” King Harvey looks up at me and smiles, his fangs poke my chest. “I am thankful you understand. And allowed me to keep you up an extra hour. Rest. I must teach you werewolf history tomorrow in preparation for the party.” It takes no convincing. I fall asleep as soon as my eyes close. King Harvey wakes us up early a

    King Harvey sits beside me at a round table as he and the kings continue to speak of war. Eventually, King Harvey breaks down in laughter at some funny tale that I don’t get to understand. Meanwhile, the wives and I are still taking notes on what exactly to teach humans about werewolves, but werewolves about humans as well. A mutual understanding will bring both sides to an equal group. I wish I had the courage to ask about half-breed children, but I don’t. I have mentioned hospitals for innocent people and they like that idea, those that have been hurt in battle or otherwise will have a free place to go for help. “Elena,” The King of the East’s wife says. “We do need to see some of your luna powers…” “Why?” King Harvey tenses beside me and I hear the quiet click of his talons. The King of the East catches the sound and makes eye-contact with King Harvey. “My wife will not harm yours, Harvey.” The King of the East comments icily. “Very well.” King Harvey places both hands on the

    In a blur, King Harvey takes us back to our castle and the men walks off to train. Beta Tom looks at me as if to ask a question, but simply walks away. King Harvey frowns as he wraps an arm around my waist, guiding us to the library.“Beta Tom is very anxious for your answer, Elena. He is desperate for your blessing.”I sigh. “Are you sure of him, King Harvey?”“Do you believe me a liar, Elena?” King Harvey raises an eyebrow. “I have not lied to you about a thing, why would I start with Beta Tom?”“She is my sister, King Harvey. I raised her, I worry, I worry and worry some more.”King Harvey warmly smiles at me as he squeezes my waist, pulling me to be body and body with him. We walk in step.“You will make an excellent mother, Elena.”“What about aunt?” I grumble, knowing that I do trust King Harvey, which means I do trust Beta Tom and will give him the answer they both want. I never asked Emily what she thought of him….“Speaking of aunts!” A tall woman with long straight, soft bro

    King Harvey’s aunt and uncle leave at midnight, promising a soon return. I lay in bed beside him in silence, my mind running with all these plans to train. I must get a baton that extends, I must talk to Emily about Beta Tom before running into him tomorrow. I must buy a breast-pump or several of them. I must keep training. “You healed the King of the North, Elena.” King Harvey whispers as he runs his taloned hand down the side of my face. “I am so proud of you my heart could rip at the seams.” “Did I heal him all the way?” “Enough to save him, Elena. I wouldn’t be surprised if he tells everyone. This will work great for us.” I sit up. “It will?” “Yes, Elena. You are an ally. They will look upon you kindly.” “Oh! How good! This will help you too!” “I just want your safety, Elena.” King Harvey draws my hands to his lips and kisses them. “I am so happy for your growing abilities and confidence.” “Thank you. Can we rest now?” I feel foolish to ask, but my eyes are drifting shut.

    After baking a small cake for Emily and Beta Tom to celebrate, I see that King Harvey is missing. Placing the iced cake to the side to rest, I dash off to our bedroom and see he is sitting at the edge of our bed, staring out the window seriously. “Honey?” I call King Harvey, who barely moves his head. “My parents are coming, Elena.” King Harvey’s jaw doesn’t even move. “I must say I hope it is positive news.” I shrug. “It must be, King Harvey. I have proved myself and have done nothing wrong.” “You never did anything wrong, my wife.” King Harvey stands and is at my side at once, pulling me into his warm chest. “Is there cake for us?” I can’t help laughing out loud at his innocent question. “Yes, yes. I made two cupcakes for us.” “Lovely.” King Harvey grins. “I can cover you in icing.” “Later, Harvey.” King Harvey’s mother states coolly. “I see that Beta Tom will be married shortly to your wife’s sister.” Faintly, in the distance we hear Beta Tom screaming for joy over their e

    The weeks pass by faster than I can grasp them. Every day I train with King Harvey for five hours a day. He and I have found a sync that makes my heart sing. King Harvey can now read me with a glance because of our bonded power. My hands react to my thoughts when it comes to using my powers. It is as if my luna powers are a small pond of water, that I can draw water from as often as I need, if I don’t overdo it. I can even see the pond whenever I close my eyes and clear my mind. Taking a seat beside King Harvey on the floor, I share his gaze. King Harvey is staring at his armor as he sharpens my dagger, not even looking at the blade. “You are doing very well, Elena.” King Harvey says as he continues to sharpen the blade. “Recall what I said about your mind? Do you understand now?” “Yes, as long as I keep my mind open, everything works well!” I kiss his cheek and he moves to look at me, grinning happily. “You will be able to fashion an armor of your own with your powers, Elena.

    Emily runs her hand through my hair and sighs. “I made a beautiful braid for you today, Elena. It is finally your Luna Queen Ceremony!”“I am terrified!” I manage between my chattering teeth. My clammy hands light at the idea of the ceremony, but my stomach hits the floor when I glance outside. Every single king, wife and beta are waiting outside the castle in golden seats for me.“You can do it! I have seen you cover your husband in a red orb three times!”“Only last night!” I shut my lips tight to not throw up. My stomach lurches back and forth like a ship lost at sea.Sighing into my shaking hands, I wish I could be anywhere else.Suddenly, warm arms hug me from behind and keep me steady. King Harvey rests his head on my shoulder and says nothing.In the body-length mirror in front of me, I ignore my ugly face and the rest of my flaws. Instead, I stare at King Harvey. His impeccable brown hair is combed to the side, as if we are headed to church, and the morning sun drips down his

    “Where are you taking me, King Harvey?” I ask as he picks me up over his shoulder and runs off into the forest. “I believe we should rest in our cottage, Elena. Do you mind? Close your eyes, Elena. It will be a very fast blur.” “No, let’s go!” King Harvey picks up the pace and I feel him running faster. When he places me down on the ground, I open my eyes and feel stable. It has been a few hours since the luna ceremony, and King Harvey snuck me away from the after party. “You kidnapped me away from the party.” King Harvey chuckles lovingly. “You look exhausted, Elena. Please, let’s take a nap together.” “You haven’t been resting well, King Harvey.” I run my hand down his chest and he catches my hand to kiss it sweetly. “I have worried about you, my mate. I believed in you, but I could feel your fears.” “Oh, I am sorry!” King Harvey picks me up and carries me across the threshold of our cottage, then lays me down in bed. He lies in bed beside me and holds me to his chest. “I

    A few months have passed since the planning of our orphanage. I have named it Hilda’s Home, after my mother. I have placed a portrait of her that Harvey painted for me for our first wedding anniversary at the front door, and this is my home as much as it is the children that reside here.Emily splits her time working with me, between being a mother to her two boys and working at the orphanage as a doctor. Beta Tom works as her assistant and bodyguard. Harvey and I do our best to split our duties evenly, but he is here as often as I am.As long as phone is available, he can do his kingly duties here as well.The King of the North died in disgrace four and a half years ago, succumbing to his illness and the wound sustained from Harvey and me. No one attended his funeral, not even his wife. The people he left next in line have no issue with us, or us with them, so it has been a peaceful life.“Luna Queenie?” I hear a small little girl ask as she looks up at me.She is about three, named

    The King of the North has not made a sound for months after his attack and we are all grateful. King Harvey remains at my side, loyal as always, but more silent. “Elena.” King Harvey starts as I look over the blueprint for an a new building. Should it be a school, a hospital? A shelter from wars and storms? In these past months, Emily has married Beta Tom and swiftly got pregnant. I am still waiting for my symptoms of pregnancy. There are none. I think I know what he wants to tell me. “Harvey… I am not with child.” “No, Elena. Not yet.” King Harvey bows his head and turns away to face the window. When I see tears roll down his face, I leap at him, holding him tightly to my chest. His hand dig into my back desperately. “Why a false positive?” I ask, trying not to weep openly. Tears roll down my face too. “Your luna abilities are so strong, Elena. It seemed and smelled like you were, and I believed it, until now. Doris pointed out that you would be showing by now, for sure…” K

    It has been a couple of weeks since King Harvey told me I was pregnant. I feel better, but my luna powers are starting to light my hands when I am asleep. No one knows what it means. Emily is all over me, asking if I am having nightmares or pain. There is nothing bothering me physically. Emotionally, I am very stressed by the thought of being a mother. I am just worried.Nervous, very, very nervous.“King Harvey.” I call for my husband in the dark, wondering where he is. His side of the bed is empty.The front door cracks open slowly, and an orange light bathes my husband from behind. King Harvey shuts the light behind him and walks back to bed silently. He presses a napkin in my hand, and this is when I feel two pieces of toast with butter in my hand.I can’t help but laugh out loud at the innocence of his act.“You were saying you were hungry in your sleep, Elena.” King Harvey says between crunches of his own toast. “Would you rather have a sandwich?”“Thank you, King Harvey.

    Two weeks pass by as I train harder. I can create a shield with no effort, but I can’t hold it for very long. That will come with time. I have had to pause my training because I have been feeling weak these past few days. I know I am running a fever. King Harvey checked my temperature and Emily checked me. I wonder where I got it from. Opening my eyes aches the rest of my body, I have been in and out of sleep for the past hour. “Elena.” King Harvey whispers to me at my right side of the bed. I see him kneeling at my side and I try to sit up. When I groan, he pops up and slips to his side of the bed and helps me sit up, wrapping a warm arm around my shoulders. “Are you well, Elena?” King Harvey asks as he readjusts so I can rest my head on a pillow he props behind my head and against the headboard. “I feel very weak.” I say to the best of my ability. It hurts to speak. King Harvey says nothing as he lights his hand with a soft red flame, he places the healing flame on my forehea

    King Harvey cradles me lovingly to his chest in our bed, and winces when his knuckles brush my face. “Ow,” he grimaces. “That stupid ice shield! I had no idea he would do that!” “How did you break it anyway?” I ask, lifting my hand to press it above his and heal his wounds lightly. I can handle scrapes and that is about it. King Harvey smiles down at me. “I am so thankful you are my mate… and naked.” “King Harvey.” I address my husband firmly. “How did you break the barrier?” “Force.” “Ah, so I can’t do that.” King Harvey understands my question and his brown eyes widen. “Oh, you believe it was werewolf abilities?” “Yes.” “No, it was my strength. But with your luna abilities I am sure you can highlight your hands and fight. Not that I want you in any form of close combat, Elena.” King Harvey takes my hands and kisses them sweetly, then presses a kiss to my cheek. “I am so glad you were not harmed.” “You wanted to kill him…” “What husband in love wouldn’t?” King Harvey voil

    King Harvey quietly takes a seat beside me in his office as I stare at the treaty I am writing up. I have been sitting with it all day, oscillating between feeling as if my words will fall on deaf ears, and pure joy that humans will finally have a voice. Will both sides listen to me? King Harvey interlocks his fingers with mine. “Elena, you are doing wonderful. Please, do not stress.” “What if they do not listen?” King Harvey tilts his head to the side. “Plenty will not, but once it is law, they have no choice but to follow. Many will, and those that don’t will be punished. It is nothing new, Elena.” “Yes, I know laws are important, but if there is a massive push…” My husband brushes the hair out of my face with a gentle and steady hand. “They will not defy me.” “King Harvey!” Beta Tom exclaims as he runs through the double doors. “The King of the North is here to see you!” Automatically, Beta Tom turns to the left and bows as the King of the North and his wife walk into our o

    Awakening from a long passionate night with my husband to Emily laughing loudly outside my front door makes me smile. Slowly, I sit up and feel King Harvey’s warm hand on my lower stomach. “Sleep, my mate.” King Harvey’s voice is still worn with sleep. His lower register makes me shiver, but when Emily continues, I want to throw open the door. “Stay in bed, King Harvey. I need to see why she is happy.” King Harvey chuckles. “You believe she will not tell you?” “Yes, she will… you are correct, it is best we rest.” My eyes drift shut again when King Harvey holds me close. By midafternoon, King Harvey and I are awake and are strolling around the exterior of the castle. King Harvey tells me about the trees and how he used to climb them as a child, with a sweet smile on his face. I wonder what our future will hold for us. “Harvey.” King Harvey’s mother calls from behind us. Instantly, King Harvey sheathes his sword again and we turn to his mother. “Hello.” We both greet his mother

    Three days pass of more planning for Emily’s wedding as King Harvey trains the betas. King Harvey has final test for the betas, and then after, he would like me to ask the betas what they think of me.I have spent the whole morning fretting, my hands lightly shaking as I hope I can go through five betas with full power and get real answers for King Harvey. My ability to be a lie detector also helps the kingdom. I need to master this.I need to, for my sake too, to stay safe.All morning I have heard King Harvey battling the betas in hand-to-hand combat, to test their strength and endurance. The sounds make my heart rattle, they are ferocious warriors. I wish I could go hand to hand with a werewolf. It seems less terrifying than my luna powers failing me here and me looking like a fool, holding hands with a werewolf beta that is certainly not my dear husband.“Elena.” King Harvey appears at my doorway and smiles, shirtless and sweaty.“Are you hungry?” I question, rushing to him and ta

    “You are free to marry Emily, Beta Tom, after you get your work squared away. I can do without you for about two weeks.” King Harvey says as he flips through a thick book of wedding cake recipes. “Thank you, King Harvey.” Beta Tom bows slightly as he flips through the same wedding book I did. Emily is sitting beside me on a red velvet sofa as we look for wedding dresses for her. Emily is a simple woman and wishes to marry as I did. In the church first, then a mating ceremony. The only difference is that only King Harvey and I will be at her mating ceremony to make sure it happens. It doesn’t have to be every royal werewolf and I am glad for that. “Remember Mom’s wedding dress? Those lace sleeves and helm? I want that.” Emily says as she keeps flipping through the book. “That will be very beautiful. And lingerie?” I purposely ask and look at Beta Tom, who turns as red as the couch we are sitting on. Good, that means he has some morals about him. King Harvey flashes me a fang-fill
