Jennifer's POV Lucien and I went to speak to Debra and Let her know what had happened with Alissa. She was unhappy with how Alissa acted and said she would contact Alissa's mom and let her know what happened. Lucien and I were both shocked when we found out Debra had a feeling that Alissa had feelings for him, which is one reason she wanted to talk to me. She wanted to reassure me that Lucien was my Mate and not to let Alissa get to me. Debra had no idea Alissa would make a move on Lucien and was very disappointed in her. After talking to Debra, Lucien and I headed back to class to sleep. It was one in the morning, and I still had school. We changed into our night clothes and got in bed as soon as we reached our room. Lucien wrapped his arms around me, and I lay my head on his chest and fell asleep quickly."Wake up, Little One," Lucien said. I opened my eyes to see Lucien, and I were still in bed. Lucien's arms were still wrapped around me, and my head was on his chest. I lifted my
Jennifer's POV"Let me get this straight. Alissa kissed your Mate, and he banned her from the Castle and the Royal Pack Territory. Then, her mom showed up and begged for them to be able to stay in one of the guest houses in the Pack territory and go to the Crowning Ceremony. You agreed because you felt bad for Queen Debra because she wanted to spend time with her friend," Stacy saidIt was lunchtime, and Chelsea, Poppy, Stacy, and I were sitting outside Royal High at one of the tables. I told them what happened last night when Stacy asked me if I was okay and how Lucien and I were doing."Yeah, that about covers it," I replied"Why would you not let Lucien kick them out? That was what he wanted to do anyway," Stacy asked."I didn't want Debra to feel bad. I could tell she wanted to spend time with her friend, and I didn't want to be the reason she couldn't. Besides, Alissa's mom seems nice and should keep Alissa in check," I said"I don't know about that, Queen Jennifer," Chelsea said
Jennifer's POVThe first place we went to was the Bakery to try different cakes. Lucien and I decided on the chocolate cake and the red velvet cake. I felt like I was getting married, which I knew was basically what was going on. Only becoming Fully Mated was deeper than marriage. Being Fully Mated was forever, while someone could get a divorce in a marriage.Lucien told me that was the reason it was hard for his mother to leave his father. She never once even thought about leaving him because they were a mated couple. What I didn't understand was how he could cheat on his mother. If Mates are supposed only to be attracted to each other, what made his father cheat on his mother? Not only that, but wouldn't he have felt disgusted for being with someone else? I wanted to ask but decided not to because I knew that must have been a touchy subject."Since all of you are here, we should head to the shop to choose your suites," Debra said"It isn't bad luck for Jennifer to see me in my suit,
Lucien's POVI ran into the changing room and quickly changed. I was so happy my mom had finally approved of an appropriate suit for me to wear when I made Jennifer my Queen. She was already my Queen, and everyone knew it, but this would make it official, and I couldn't wait until next Saturday came. Once I had finished changing, I came out of the changing room with the suit in hand. I was expecting to see Jennifer, but she was nowhere in sight."Where is Jennifer?" I asked"She went to the bathroom with Stacy," My mom said "Okay, I am going to pay for the suits and schedule the time for them to send them to the Castle. You all can go to the Limo," I said"Okay, son. Make sure you schedule a time for next Thursday. That way, we have enough time to make sure the suit fits properly, and they don't mess up on any of the alterations," My mom said for the tenth time today."Yes, Mom," I replied, and she left along with everyone else and headed to the Limo. My phone rang, and I saw it was
Jennifer's POV (Before Lucien found here)"What up," I heard a voice say. Somehow I knew it was my wolf. I tried to open my eyes, but it was hard. Finally, after trying a couple of times to open them, my eyes opened only to close again from the sun shining brightly. I opened them again and could see that I was in the forest. I knew that because of all of the trees that were around me. I sat up but had to lie back down because I felt dizzy."Where are you?" I looked up to see Alissa standing a few feet away from me. She wasn't paying attention to me and didn't notice I had woken up00 yet."IF you are not here in five minutes, I am going to take care of her myself. My mom told me to let you have her and take care of her, but you better hurry up and get here, or I am going to do what I have wanted to do with her since I heard she was trying to steal my Mate," Alissa said."You have to get up before now," My wolf said. "How are you talking to me?' I asked"Because you have been getting
Jennifer's POV"Oh, think the Goddess, you are alright," Debra said as Lucien, Tom, Josh, and I walked up to the Castle. She walked up to me and hugged me tightly. Stacy was the next to hug me, then Chelsea, and then Poppy. "You have no idea how worried we were. What happened?" Stacy asked. I looked up to see Shelby standing there, looking nervous. "Alissa stabbed me in the neck with a needle and took me to the forest," I said"What? There must be a mistake. My daughter would never do that to anyone," Shelby said"Well, she did, and you already knew that because you were a part of it," I said, causing everyone to look at me in shock."What do you mean, Little One?" Lucien asked. "I heard Alissa talking on the phone to someone. She told them they had to come soon or she would kill me like she wanted. She also said that her mom told her to take me there. I wouldn't be surprised if she planned everything," I replied. Everyone looked at Shelby. "Is that true?" Debra asked"No. We have
Lucien's POVJosh, Tom, and I waited outside Alissa's cell for the Pack Doctor to get done checking on Alissa. Finally, about thirty minutes later, she came out and walked toward me. "Did you find anything?" I asked"I can't see anything out of the ordinary. She looks healthy, but I have taken her blood and will run some tests. I will contact you when the test is done," The Pack Doctor said. We said our goodbyes, and he left. "I am going to talk to Shelby," I said, walking to her cell. I needed to know why she would hurt me by trying to hurt Jennifer. Was it because she wanted me to end up with Alissa? That was what it seemed like.I walked into her cell to see she was sitting on the floor. When I walked in, she looked at me. "Hello, King Lucien," Shelby said."Why did you betray me and my mom? I thought you were our family," I asked, and she laughed."Oh, please. We were never family," Shelby said, shocking me."How could you say that? You and My mom have been close forever," I sai
Jennifer's POVI was shocked. I never thought I would see the day that Debra snapped. I might not have known her long, But since I met her, she has been so nice to everyone and shown how much she cared. I never thought I would see her lose it and rip someone's heart out of their body. "Your mom wanted to come here and ask Shelby why she would betray you by hurting me. We heard everything she said," I said to Lucien.Debra was standing over Shelby's lifeless body with Shelby's heart in her head in hand, shaking. "Everything is going to be okay, Mom," Lucien said as he walked over to his mom."I trusted her. She was supposed to be family, and she did this to me," Debra said. Lucien wrapped his arms around her and hugged her. "Everything is going to be okay, mom. Don't cry," Luciens and. His eyes met mine, and I couldn't stop the tears from coming from my eyes as I watched him console his mother. I could tell he was hurting too. Shelby didn't only hurt Debra. She also hurt Lucien. He
