2021-09-09 21:19:29After the wholesome family moment, the court got called back in. Gray was now back from wherever he went and joined me on the balcony once more, he isn't going to believe the information I just found out, I'll have to tell him after this is all finished.
It was now Preston's turn to go to the stand, the court was silent as we all watch him walk over to the stand. All you could hear where the chains around his feet rattling, I glance over at Gray who's eyes didn't leave his father. I reach over taking his hand in mine, it was my turn to comfort him. He places a kiss on my hand before resting our interlocked hands on his leg, as Preston took the stand he takes a look up at us.
"Now let's start with the questions shall we, did you hire Cyrus and Wes Jacobs?" Our guy asks placing his hands in his pockets, we all knew where this was going to go

I look down into the court to see my family sat all together, even Cyrus was sat beside my dad, like one big happy family!My eyes wonder to Preston, he had such a horrible look on his face, I think it's finally now setting in that this whole act of being a devoted King isn't going to pass.

I was sitting watching Netflix on my laptop finally having a lazy day, with work and pack chores I don't get many of these. I sit back smiling but the bedroom door opening breaks my relaxing moment. Emma, my brother's mate, walks into my bedroom, she frantically runs to my mirror fixing her hair. "We have to go to the pack house, the Alpha's holding a meeting," she tells me still fixing her hair. The Alpha is really strict when he's holding a meeting, you have to look smart or he gets very angry. I quickly get up fixing myself too, once I was ready we both walk down to see Kyle, my older brother, standing by the door. He sends me a nervous smile, he hated the Alpha but was also rather scared of him. "You don't have to come Clara, I could tell everyone you're feeling ill"

I finish packing the final bag, I know this was a good thing but I couldn't help but feel sad. I mean it's great that I've found my mate, but it meant I had to leave my brother who's stood by me through all the hard times. He's angry now but I know he'd tell me I was being stupid and how good of a thing this was, it's not like I'll never see him again, I hope. I zip my bag up with a sigh, I hope Grayson is nice and doesn't treat me poorly, I've saw first hand what some people are like to their mates. I pick my bags up walking towards the door, once I open it more of the guys were standing outside my door. They bow their heads before two of them take my bags off me, while the other two escort me out my bedroom. "Where's my brother?" I ask, this actually being the first time I've spoke since I left the meeting, they quickly walk me down the st

I lay in bed looking at the ceiling for hours, I managed to get maybe 3 or 4 hours sleep but that was all. I had this problem when Kyle and me first moved into my old pack, no matter how hard I tried I could never fully get to sleep. Kyle always said it boiled down to our past and how I haven't fully accepted the things that happened, he thinks if I try to accept them it would help me get over it. But I don't know if I'm ready to do that yet. I turn my attention to the window to see the sun beginning to come up, I guess there's no point trying to fall back to sleep now. I decide to get up and start getting ready for the day, the early bird catches the worm I guess. The amazing thing about this room was there was a bathroom connected to it, which meant I didn't have to see anyone else I could just start getting ready. I round my things up and hop in the shower, hoping that would help to kill time.

After breakfast, Grayson was giving me a tour of the huge castle, which was just getting even more beautiful. My favourite part had to be the huge ballroom, he did tell me when I first arrived that I'd love it. It has huge with murals on the ceiling, it had gold statues it was beautiful. The last part of the tour was the garden, he said he thinks I'll also like this part too. The doors open my mouth also hanging open, I couldn't believe my eyes! I stop at the door just staring at the beautiful garden in front of me, I think this might have topped the ballroom. "The garden was always my mothers favourite, so my father would add more and more to make her love it more" he smiles standing beside me "I confess I have let it go a little, the gardeners make it look great but I've just forgotten about it since she left" he sighs looking down at the ground, I don't know what's happened to his mother or father for that ma

Daisy and I sat there and chatted for awhile, she was actually super nice and told me what to expect when living here. She also told me about her family and where she comes from, she was born in America but moved to the uk when she was 5. Her family quickly settled into a pack a few hours away, she doesn't get to see her family much now she's with Josh. As Josh is Grayson's beta he can't be away from this place for very long, but Josh doesn't want Daisy to be away from him so she just has so wait until he can get a few days off. She was actually being so open with me, she told me how lonely she's felt since she moved here. She said she's so happy that she's found Josh and wouldn't change it for the world, but as he's always working here she's alone as she doesn't have any friends. I told her how that's all changing now I'm here, honestly she would be helping me because I'd be just like her if she wasn't here.

For the next few hours, I was stood up straight on a little platform thing with two woman poking and prodding me. Daisy was there the whole time though keeping me company, I felt I could have a full conversation with her as the two woman were wrapped up discussing sizes and poking me! The two woman leave for awhile telling us not to leave the room, this gave me and Daisy time to do our hair and makeup, which wasn't a lot as she said I didn't need to wear any. They return with a full dress where they asked who would help me put it on. I immediately look at Daisy who nods causing the two woman to leave, I sincerely didn't want one of them poking me again. "You're gonna look amazing Clara" Daisy smiles going back to do the back up, I mean it was absolutely beautiful, probably the nicest thing I've ever worn.&

The past week as been so hectic! Most of my days have been filled with plans and tasks all about my coronation, I was under the impression that it would be a simple ceremony, this was far from simple or easy. Gray has tried to be around and help as much as he could, but his days are full of his work and duties which does suck a little, but I know it's his work so I don't mind. Daisy has actually been keeping me company, she's helped to keep my head focused through all this chaos. The next day after the whole presentation thing, Kyle rang me on the phone here which was so nice to hear his voice. He told me he would have contacted me sooner but the pack was prohibited from doing so, which is exactly what I thought before. We arranged a day for him and Emma to come see the castle, I had to run it passed Mason so I could actually get the day off. Today was Sunday, the day of my coronation, according to Daisy it was

The Kings Mate Water Under The Bridge
After Cyrus spoke the court took a break, I think everyone needed some time to try and take in everything that was just said. I had no idea Preston threatened Cyrus and my dad, I thought Cyrus just did it because he's a terrible man that took pleasure from doing that kind of thing. I mean let's be honest he probably did enjoy it, but maybe he got too far in and there was no way out so he carried on.I was in the lobby of the court alone this time, well sort of alone as there were guards everywhere. Gray was with Josh doing I have no idea what, while Erik was talking with the prosecutor guy, aka our guy. I couldn't be seen talking with anyone from the court, in case people see and the public becomes aware of my hand in this case.I was just stood there when something catches my eye, sitting alone on one of the chairs was Cyrus. He sat with his ha
The Kings Mate Taken Care Of
As we enter the courthouse I see all the guards.... well guarding, I probably haven't seen this amount of guards in one place ever! And I have seen a lot of them. Erik said the publics shock they felt at first has turned into anger, for Preston's safety most of the castle guards are here. I mean I know he's a horrible man that is about to pay for what he did, but he doesn't deserve an angry mob attacking him.Gray turns and gives me a look, he must have been invading my thoughts again and disagreed with what I thought. We soon reach the ginormous staircase, last time we were here I didn't have my wolf which made the journey up this staircase quite difficult. I'm hoping now my wolf is back in her annoying place."Annoying?! As you said without me you didn't manage to get up the stairs" she snaps in my mind, I didn't say I didn't manage to get up the stairs and I actually did get up the stairs f
The Kings Mate Goes Nothing
It was the next morning, the day of Preston's trial. I thought going into this I would be more nervous, but I actually wasn't. We had Cyrus and my dad for starters, we have down some intense research on him and he even confessed! We knew for definite that he'd get some time for Matilda and we have so much evidence on all the other crimes, this is gonna be a clean sweep!I got dressed into my most sophisticated outfit but also, not too sophisticated. I knew this was my last day staying here with my parents, they were being moved into a different house after the trial. One because this is just a safe house and is not made for constant living and second, Cyrus came here yesterday so they wouldn't be safe away from him, even though I'm having guards watch his every move.I walk down the stairs that opened to the living room, my mother was tying my d
The Kings Mate Is The Day
I was sitting on the sofa of my parents safe house, my mum had me change out of my wet clothes and into something warmer before I caught a cold. I explained everything that happened and they were kind of shocked, my mother held my hand as I explained the whole thing."You can stay here as long as you like" she smiles squeezing my hand as she spoke "you're the reason we get to live like this, finally away from that monster" she continues, I knew she was talking about Cyrus."He's also getting released after the trial, don't worry he's going to be closely watched and will never get anywhere near you" I say looking at both of them, my dad just smiles coming to sit beside me."It's okay Clara, all we want to is to have some sort of
The Kings Mate Some Space
I arrive home in no time, I head straight to the bedroom where I lock the door behind me. I needed to be left alone for a while to try and process what just happened, if that was even remotely possible to do. I begin to pace the room, I was trying to come up with an explanation but I found none! Why would Erik do something like that? The dude was literally just trying to tell me about his brother, who apparently worked with me at the beginning. This causes me to rack my brain to try and remember anybody who doesn't work for me anymore, I mean there's been a ton of guards who have worked with me for awhile, could one of those men be the one he was talking about? I just don't know!The door handle moving is what breaks me from my pacing thoughts, once the person realises the door is indeed locked, they begin to knock."My love, open the door" Gray
The Kings Mate Didn’t Want To Know
Erik and I sat in the room for a while, at first all we could hear was the commotion outside with Gray but now, it was weirdly quiet. At the time I think I still had a little of my wolfs Queen mode on, but now I've settled down a little I'm starting to regret allowing Gray to attack them. Yes I know they tried to hurt me and it's so lucky that Gray was there, but he could have just knocked them out and allow guards to come. That would have been the more appropriate way of handling the situation, especially, with the court case going on right now.The jury were still deliberating which I was more nervous about, I hope I said enough for them to see that Daisy would never wish to harm anyone. Erik told me he didn't know I had that side of me and if I'm honest, I had no idea I had that side of me either. I knew I had a tougher side to me due to me using it before, but I didn't know I could be that heartless when the o
The Kings Mate See You Try
After a little run around outside, I walk back into court extremely calm and collected. Gray and I shifted and ran through the surrounding woods, it felt so good to finally feel like me again and another great thing! After I shifted back into my human form my arms were completely healed, it really doesn't get better than that!As I take my seat once again I spot Josh and Daisy having a conversation, she looked beyond worried with Josh trying to calm her down. Due to my wolf, I didn't hear the last part of the trial, so I was clueless on how it actually went. The jury make their way back in which causes everyone to get back in their seats, well apart from me I was already in my seat. Gray takes his while also taking my hand, he was also super nervous about this all too, no one knew if they did enough to prove her innocence.One of the jury member
