2024-10-29 19:42:56Kyle stood frozen in place, his face was blank as he stares at the letter in my hand. He seems to snap out of his trace where he proceeds to pace, I knew he was trying to collect all his thoughts.
"I knew this was gonna happen, I kept telling Emma sooner or later they were gonna reach out now you're queen" he says still pacing the room "you might be queen but I'm still your older brother, you just need to ignore it and throw that away" he continues, pointing down at the letter still in my hands.
"I can't, when someone writes a letter to a royal they have to get a reply" I tell him, it was a rule I didn't know existed until toady.
"Then say you never received a letter" he says but I shake my head him, he knows me better than that.

The next morning went by so quickly, I loved the way Erik was scheduling my work, it actually felt like I was doing something not just running around all over the shop. It was the first day I didn't need to cover my neck! If felt great not to always have a boiling hot neck from the scarf I needed to wear, also it meant I was getting closer to Gray too. It was the end of my duties for today but my day was far from over, my parents were due to arrive within the hour. I hadn't thought about the meeting until I saw the castle, I've been so wrapped up with my duties that they totally slipped my mind. It was probably for the better though, knowing me I'd be worrying about it all day and wouldn't have been able to focus.I begin to make my way into the castle, when I got halfway up the stairs I see Gray shouting at someone through the window. He looked rather angry, I've never actually saw him like this before. I look aw
The Kings Mate What’s Coming To Him
"Kyle?" I ask unfolding my arms, he begins to make his way over to us giving our parents looks as he went."Like I expected, all you guys want is to worm your way back into Clara's life as she's queen" he says shaking his head "unfortunately, Clara is too nice of a person to see that, which is good that I'm here" he continues, he comes to a stop beside me staring down at our parents."But how did you know we were having this meeting?" I ask looking over at him, he smiles towards me with a shake of his head."I'm your older brother Clara, I know how your mind works even if you try to hide it" he smiles while I just roll my eyes, he was probably right "I knew it would eat away at you if you didn't respond, I checked with the people here if I could come visit you and they said su
The Kings Mate A Ultimatum
The next week was actually okay, Erik was scheduling my work so I had time to come up with plans about my parents. They were actually due to arrive today, this was the day they were going to tell us what Cyrus gets up too. Once we get all the information he can be arrested which we'll be so fun to watch, wait is it bad I wanna watch someone get arrested?Grayson's been acting off for awhile, he's constantly working and when he does come back he stinks of cleaning stuff, it smells as though he's been cleaning bathrooms all day everyday. I think about asking him but I don't know if I'll like the response he'll give me, I just have a bad feeling he's doing some stuff I don't wanna hear about. We did do our first day of duties together the other day, it was actually really great and people loved it.I got a message that my parents and Kyle were here
The Kings Mate Welcome Back
The next day was a Sunday so luckily, I didn't have any duties today. Today myself and Erik were heading to my first pack, the one Cyrus got us kicked out of. Gray wanted to come along but I thought it would be best if I go alone, that way I can tell Gray after and stop him from going and attacking my father if what he told us was really a bunch of lies.Erik and I were walking side by side towards the doors of the castle, I feel like I spend more time with Erik than anyone else, even Gray. As we make it outside a bunch of cars were waiting, guards were also waiting outside who immediately, bow their heads in my direction. I send them all a quick smile before walking over to the car, as I climb in I clock Gray standing in one of the windows watching me. Someone I haven't saw much of recently, I sigh beginning to climb in where shouting erupts from the other side of the car.
The Kings Mate Mr Roberts
Erik started asking the starter questions like, what year did you become alpha? When did you first encounter Cyrus? All the normal questions that was protocol to ask. I actually didn't have any of the questions, Erik thought it would be better if I had a question to just ask it."When and what was the first incident you were aware of?" Erik asks still going through the questions he wrote down, he was covering everything at this point so I didn't feel the need to step in."Well, I become aware that something was happening when a few of the supply people noticed that the shipments weren't adding up, they would order a certain amount of one thing but there would be a missing crate every time " the alpha explains which does actually back up my fathers story, he claimed that Cyrus started robbing the supplies that no one would notice "we did a secret
The Kings Mate The New Alpha
A little while later, the alpha and Luna return apologising for having to leave. I completely understood why they needed to leave, just hearing about what happened made me want to throw up but to have to see it, I couldn't even imagine that type of pain. Erik tells me the king wants me home soon which meant I had to wrap this up, we would need to continue this meeting at a later date."Thank you so much for answering our questions, as hard as some were to answer" I smile standing in front of them, Chase was just standing a little behind his dad."It's fine, we'd answer a million questions if it meant those monsters got put away" the alpha says cracking his knuckles as he went."Is it inappropriate that I want to hug you?" The Luna asks me smiling, I laugh a little shaking my h
The Kings Mate From The Tree
It was early morning the next day, it was time to arrest Cyrus and my father. To minimise the risk of them catching on and fleeing, we were going under the cover of nightfall. We drove for a little while stopping maybe a mile out, I climb out the car into the cold night. Gray also gets out coming to my side immediately, he told me I didn't have to come but I wanted to, just to see Cyrus's face, does that make me a bad person?We start to make our journey towards the house, I had a circle of guards around me with Gray also guarding me, there had to of been around a hundred guards with us on this journey. A building soon comes into view at the top of a hill, there was only one light on around the back. Guards silently go into position near doors and windows, while we go to stand by the door behind a bunch of guards. One of the guards look back at Gray who nods, I take ahold of his arm as a guard lifts his leg up and
The Kings Mate No Accident
It was the same morning, I was just getting ready to start my day of duties, honestly I didn't know if I had it in me to plaster a smile on my face, but it's my job and I see how happy it makes people so I've just got to suck it up.I was doing my hair in the mirror when I notice something, as I go to pick my hairbrush up I spot the upper part of my arm. This might sound weird but there was nothing to spot, normally when I look in this mirror to do my hair the horrific scar stands out to me, but it's gone. I put my hairbrush back on the counter and stare down at my arm, I even glanced to the other one just to make sure I didn't forget what arm it was on, but both were clear. I feel tears begin to well up in my eyes as I looked at the patch it skin, it's finally gone!"I told you, all scars fade now we found mate" my wolf says in my head, knowing

The Kings Mate Final Chapter
The jury didn't take long to decide what was to happen to Preston, much to Gray's annoyance. We were now sat in the courtroom waiting for the jury to come back in, I was pretty confident that we'd won this but you never know. 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. The act he was playing is now up as Gray said, he's about to pay for all those people he hurt.The jury soon enter the courtroom going over to sit where they have been, Gray quickly takes my hand as the main jury person stands up."Have you came to an agreement?" The j
The Kings Mate Freedom
After 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
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
