The Kings Captive CHAPTER 64: UNCLE RAYN
VERA'S POV.---As I stepped into the grand hall of the castle, the air was thick with anticipation. Today, I would meet Uncle Ryan, King Sylvester’s personal adviser. I had heard whispers about him—how he was not only intelligent but also quite handsome. My heart raced as I approached the ornate door, my mind swirling with thoughts about what this encounter would bring. When the door swung open, I was greeted by a warm smile that instantly put me at ease. Uncle Ryan had an aura of kindness that made the vastness of the hall feel cozy. His deep, expressive eyes sparkled with intelligence.As I walked through the marble corridors, the sunlight streamed through the tall windows, casting a warm glow on the ornate decorations. I couldn’t help but feel a sense of belonging here, yet there was still that lingering feeling of being an outsider.

The Kings Captive CHAPTER 61: BONDING WITH AMBER.
DEREK'S POV.As the weeks went by, Amber and I found ourselves paired up for a project. We were to create a set of matching mugs, and I was both excited and nervous. I could feel the weight of my memories with Vera pressing down on me, but Amber had a lightness that was hard to resist. She would often catch my eye and smile, her enthusiasm infectious. “Come on, Derek! You can’t just press the clay down like that! You have to give it some love!” she teased one afternoon, her laughter ringing out like music. I found myself smiling back, despite the tumult of emotions swirling inside me. “Thanks for the correction, miss tutor” i said, teasing her back.Our pottery sessions turned into something more. After class, Amber would often invite me over to her place, where she’d whip up something delicious in the kitchen. I couldn’t remember the last time someone had cooked for me, and it felt nice to be cared for, even if just a little. “Do you like pasta?” she asked one day, her hands busy
The Kings Captive CHAPTER 62 : WAR IN THE PACK.
VERA'S POV.The morning sun peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow across our room. I lay there, listening to the distant sounds of the pack stirring. A sense of unease settled in my stomach, a feeling that something was off. It wasn’t long before the heavy footsteps of the pack members echoed through the halls, their urgency palpable. My heart raced as I heard them call for Sylvester.I quickly dressed and made my way to the great hall, where the clan gathered. The air was thick with tension, and I could see the worry etched on the faces of our people. As I entered, I caught sight of my husband, King Sylvester, standing tall and commanding, his presence both reassuring and terrifying. The pack members were breathless, their words tumbling over one another as they reported the sighting of powerful werewolf intruders trying to claim our lands.A chill ran down my spine. The thought of intruders, especially powerful ones, sent waves of fear crashing over me. I had seen the dev

VERA'S POV.“Congratulations ma’am, You're four weeks pregnant with twins” the doctor said, stretching his hand for a handshake.“Ohh, really? Did I hear you say twins doc!” I asked in confusion, shaking his hands.“You heard me right,” the doctor smiled, handing my results to me.“Thank you so much” I said with a smile.….As I stepped out from the hospital, cool breeze refreshed my skin. I felt so delighted owing to the fact I was carrying a set of twins. I imagined how the look on Sylvester's face would be when I break the news to him.

The news was still swirling in my mind, I was indeed so delighted and I concluded I'd spill the beans to Sylvester very soon, but not now though.

VERA'S POV.I was passing through the castle's walk way, in a room in saw Sylvester and uncle Ryan, they seem to be discussing something quite serious. I decided to hide and eavesdrop their conversation. They were talking with their voices barely above a whisper, but the castle was really quite so it wasn't difficult for me to listen. My heart raced as Rayn just delivered a news that would change things. I could sense the urgency from his voice and I felt a pang of anxiety.“There's an urgent meeting in Cadora pack and all the alphas must be present. You'd be two weeks away my king” I eavesdropped as Rayn told my husband.He also handed a piece of paper to him and he read it thoroughly.“We're to leave early tomorrow morning” Rayn continued and Sylvester nodded his head...“I've to be away for two weeks Vera, there's an urgent meeting I have to attend”. Sylvester told me as we lay on our royal bed almost ready to sleep.I didn't say a word because he was the king, it's one of his du
The Kings Captive CHAPTER 65. THE GREAT SHOCKER!
VERA'S POV.The day had finally arrived, the day I was to meet with Shaun, my long time relative. I had no idea what my meeting with him would entail, but I hoped it was for positivity.As I stepped into the restaurant, I spotted Shaun, he was sitted at a corner table. From afar, his facial expression seemed serious. I walked up to him, his eyes was filled with intensity and I couldn't place the reason why.The last time I saw Shaun aside from the last time we reunited was In my former pack where I used to live with my stepfather. Shaun was aware of my relationship with Derek at that time.After exchanging pleasantries, I took my seat, and the waiter brought us menus. I glanced at them, but my mind was elsewhere. “How're you today Vera?” Shaun asked.“Oh, well I'm fine, just nervous about our meeting”.Shaun didn’t say a word, he just sighed.“What about the king, your husband?” he asked with a kind of tone.“Well, he is well, he's not in the kingdom currently, he went for an urgent
The Kings Captive CHAPTER 66 : NEGLECT
VERA'S POV.I stood at the window, watching the world from inside. My heart raced at the thought of Sylvester coming back in four days time, I was quite excited having missed him a lot. I missed the warmth of his embrace, his touch, his company, his presence, his majestic and stunning appearances. I missed everything about him. But then, Shaun's words echoed in my mind, passing shivers in my vines."Vera, you need to leave this kingdom urgently. Sylvester will definitely kill you if he finds out you’re a Lycan hybrid and not a werewolf," he had warmed me, his voice cracking with urgency and fear. I could still see the worry written on his face, the way his fingers trembled and shook as he spoke. But how could I believe him? I had always thought I was just a werewolf, a creature of the night, but now he says I'm a Lycan? How was I supposed to welcome that into my head as the truth?I refused to let fear take hold of me, to let Shaun's words and warnings enter my heart. I had to trust i

AMBER’S TRIP.DEREK'S POV.I sat as the familiar scent of clay hit my nostrils. A clear reminder of how far I'd come since I started my journey of pottery learning and making. It's been a few weeks since Vera rejected me though the pain of the memory still lingered in my heart but I felt lighter now. All thanks to Amber and pottery classes. Amber had assisted me through the twists and turns of my emotions, with her company I didn't have to worry or think so much. Amber indeed had a way of making everything feel easy and effortless. In no time, I found myself drawn to her creativity, free spirit and earth. Each session with her felt like a step towards healing, a method to fill the emptiness Vera had left behind.Amber was working on her own piece and she was at the same time sharing a story with me. She encouraged me and doesn't fail to praise me anytime I excellently molded clay.“Derek, you’re getting better at this!” Amber called out, her voice bright with encouragement. I looked

VERA'S POV.As I sit in front of the mirror, the soft glow of the morning sun spills into the room, illuminating the delicate strands of my hair and the sparkle of the jewels adorning my neck and wrists. King Sylvester has outdone himself again. The diamond necklace he gifted me last night is breathtaking, a cascade of light that dances with every movement I make. I can’t help but smile at the thought of his face when he saw my reaction. He loves to spoil me, and I adore him for it.Every day feels like a fairy tale. Breakfast in bed, luxurious spa treatments, and the most exquisite gowns to wear to our evening gatherings. Sylvester’s affection is wrapped in every gift, every gesture.

But beneath the surface of this opulence, I feel a growing weight in my chest, a heaviness I can’t quite shake off. I glance at the clock, realizing that I’ve spent too long admiring my reflection.
