Huling Na-update:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After a little drive, we soon arrive in a little town. As we make it past the sign, people just lined the streets, as we drove by they all cheered and waved. Did all these people really come here to see me? In no time we pull up at a building, outside stood a man in a smart looking suit, either side were railings where people with cameras stood. My guards stand either side of the railings as my door is opened, I put a smile on my face climbing out the car. Immediately, the cheering got louder as I take a look around, I send a few people little waves before walking over to the guy in a suit.
"Welcome your majesty" he smiles bowing his head, we shake hands where I say hello " I'm Mike Falcon, these two are Maria and Jackson" he smiles walking backwards a little where two children stood.
"These are for you" Maria smiles handing me a bunch of flower

The Kings Mate Death Warrant
This week has had to be the most hectic in my life, now I know I've said that a lot since I arrive her but this one, well it hit a peak. Mason has been sending me here, there and everywhere. He keeps telling me it's to get me out there and seen, the people need to know I'm the type of person who will go into the community. Thankfully, it was Sunday a day I can get off, in no way did that mean I was getting a lay in. Today Kyle and Emma were visiting, I haven't saw them in nearly three weeks. It feels like a lifetime since I got to give Kyle a hug, a hug I've definitely needed. I was fully ready and waiting outside the castle, I asked them to come early so we had more time to spend together, with my schedule you never know when my next day offs gonna be. A car pulling into the gates makes a huge smile fill my lips, I begin to slowly walk down
The Kings Mate Make Amends
It was the start of my third week here, my second week of duties which I feel are getting easier. Well not really easier, I'm just getting used to the schedule I guess. At the start of each week I have a meeting with Mason, he gives me a rundown of the week so I'm somewhat prepared. I walk into the room shocked to see someone else sat there, a man in a blue suit that looked maybe my age stood there. "Good morning your majesty, I'm Erik your new royal advisor" he smiles holding his hand out, I smile shaking his hand but was utterly confused. "My new adviser, what happened to Mason?" I ask still confused, I saw him on Saturday and he seemed fine. "He has been relocated to fulfil a different job"he smiles pulling his folder out "and before you ask, no it had nothing to do w
The Kings Mate Summon
The office was silent as I sat there staring at the letter, why would my parents choose now to reach out to me? My life was just starting to go in the right direction, now the road block that caused all this mess has turned up in the middle of the road again. Kyle has always told me that we don't have any parents anymore and I need to put the thoughts of them behind me, but obviously due to this letter that's something I can't do.I could just ignore the letter but than Erik said there has to be a reply to every letter, I wouldn't even know what to say if I decided to reply. They've been out my life for so long that I don't even know who they are, it would be like pouring my heart out to a stranger and I don't do well talking to strangers at the best of times. We could claim that the letter never arrived if they write another, but that would be lying and seeing that's it's only my first year doing this job, I don'
The Kings Mate Scars
Kyle 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 Kings Mate The Parents
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 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
