"Are you going to tell me what you have in mind?" Andrew asked looking at me with his eyes squinted. To be honest, I didn't know if I wanted to tell him what I had in mind. I didn't want him bringing in any suggestions that would ruin the moment, but I guess if you love someone then you will not keep secrets about them.
"What makes you think I have something on my mind?" I said and he gave me the 'really?' look.
"I may not have intimately known you for years but I know you and you never speak in undertones unless you have a reason. Come on, tell me." He said, eyes sincere and waiting. How could I not say yes to something so intimate as that?
"Okay, well. I have organized this meeting. An underground mee

NIA'S POVI did not know how I felt when I saw Gloria seating at the table beside Ursula but I knew that at that moment all I wanted to do was scratch out her eyes and see if the man was still going to find her as cool as she thought she was. I was still standing there, looking, imagining all the things, terrible things I wanted to do to her face when Elsa grabbed my elbow and dragged me down to seat on the chair gently."We had been waiting for you two for ages. You always do this. How many times am I going to say it like a poem that Arthur does not let anyone eat unless the table is full?" Kelly said, annoyed and impatiently. Without waiting for an answer, dug into her food stylishly, yet hungrily. I guess class had nothing to do with hunger huh?I dug into my food, grudgi

NIA'S POV"I am so sorry." He said, making his way to the spilled ice cream on the staircase. I just watched, annoyed. "I was... I just wanted to make it here before you go to your room again and I won't have to see you until it's breakfast time." He stood over the ice cream and watched for a while, probably confused about what to do at the moment. Was he supposed to pack it with his hands and go trash them outside? Most certainly not. As he bent down, I feared he was about to do just that. I had to speak up and spare him the... Embarrassment."You know there are maids for that right? You don't have to do that. The maids will see it before they go to sleep in the chambers and certainly clean it up." I said and he reluctantly stood up, nodding his head. We stared at each other for a while, nothing to say. There was a lot to say, just that there was no appropriate order in which the words will fly out."Lovely food right?" He said and I resisted the urge to laugh. We never used to talk

NIA'S POVI was not being ridiculous. It was safe to be worried and suspect than to just slide freely with the fact that a woman had never been married. I was known for trusting people easily. Ursula and Gloria exchanged looks before Ursula opens her mouth, then closed it. Then opened it again, and this time words came out."Gloria came up with all the ideas. Like it was all hers.""Wait, I thought that it was you who brought the whole thing up. Wasn't that what you told me in here earlier?" I asked."No, I never said that. I said an idea popped, I never said whose mind it popped into or who had the brilliant idea." Ursula said, eyebrows raised."Can we just start this meeting already? I kinda have an appointment after this." Gloria said and I sighed. Maybe it was best for everyone if I put my suspicions to rest for now and allow us to get this thing over with already so that I could get a much-needed sleep."Okay, well. Let's begin, sorry for the questions, I just... Never mind, proc

NIA'S POVI stood there, staring and wondering what I was supposed to say to Ursula now. I was enjoying myself, well not enjoying anyway but just coping. There had been a perfect reason why I had vanished from the dining table immediately after I was done with food. I did not want to keep looking at Gloria's face and say something I was not supposed to say, and yet they came right into my room and made the milk spill anyway. Gosh! Without even being told by Ursula or having the heavy conversation I knew I was about to have with her, I knew that if I wanted this thing to work then I was going to have to apologize to Gloria anytime I saw her next. Even if I see her sucking face with Silas, it was about me admitting I was wrong and apologizing to her. And I was going to do it, even if it killed me. It took me only three to five seconds to admit it to myself, I was a lot of things but toxic and u

ELSA'S POVI hated today. Even before I opened my eyes, it reminded me of one thing. The ceremony where the man I loved was going to have to choose a woman to be his wife. I had slept by 2 AM and by 4 AM I was up. The moment I got up from my bed there was no going back for me, no extra sleep or a little bit more cuddle from the extra furred duvet. How do some people even sleep when things are extreme in their lives? It's always been a problem for me. I knocked on Nia's door, as soon as I had had my bath and brushed my teeth and of course, gotten dressed up. Nia opened the door, rubbing tiredly on his eyes."Hi. Elsa, it's six O one, what on Earth are you doing all dressed up and ready to start a war on my door." Nia's asked, pausing and taking me in."So, you actually can sl

ELSA'S POV"I hate your silence, Elsa. If you would call me an idiot, that would be much more acceptable." She said as I still processed."So this explains the bags under your eyes, huh?" I asked and she nodded. This was bad."So you think I'm an idiot? Nice one." She said with a sms smile, then continued her flossing."I never said that." I defended out of respect, it didn't mean that I did not think it."Well, I am good at reading minds, and the idiot was written all over your expression to me. It's okay, you can say it." She said defensively and at the same time as she believed it herself. I held my palms up and still, resisted the urge to say it. Just b

ARTHUR'S POVThe day was here. I wouldn't say finally or it would seem like I have been anticipating its arrival, trust me. I have not been. The alarm clock on the nightstand always buzzed at one specific time over the years; twenty minutes after six, reminding me that it was time I got up and continued my ruling. But today, I was up and moving before the alarm buzzed. I was anxious and couldn't sleep. And even if I was not anxious at all, the smell of gingerbread and different teas I had never tasted before diffused into the air. I believed the teas were likely reserved for important occasions like this one, I hated tea anyway.I got up, shaved in front of the bathroom mirror, and had a fast and furious shower, there was no need to have a relaxing slow bath even though I had gotten up from bed early. If my mother was around she would say I was sulking but if reacting to things you didn't want was sulking then perhaps I would change my name to sulker. Silly. There had never been soft

ELSA'S POVAfter my ridiculously long conversation with Nia that morning, I went downstairs to find Arthur and put a stop to all these already. It was stupid of me to wait for all these decorations and foods to be cooked before finally saying what everyone, well, Arthur had waited for me to say for a long time; that I was going to be his wife. That I was willing to do life with him even though it was for a very short while. Who cared? I know I didn't anymore, at least until my tummy develops a bump in the abdomen or my boobs start getting big. I could feel them swell but it was manageable and I could blame it all on the gallon of milk I kept consuming. I chuckled, now all I had to do was just find him.I got to the stairs and walked down as slowly as my anxious legs could manage. I looked down at a well-tied, black shoe and slowly looked up to find that the person that stood in front of me was Andrew. I smiled at him, not knowing what else to do. He smiled back at me. Awkwardly. Okay,

ELSA'S POVBy the time it was evening, I was sickly tired waiting for Arthur to show up. He had boldly asked me not to come, that I should enjoy my day but if I was honest, I swear that I had done anything but enjoy today. Be anxious? sure. Get mad? Definitely. Shiver? Hmm-mm. Get happy a tad? Sure again. I had rocked and rocked and rocked, getting so tired of waiting that evening. I was about to go west my fancy jacket and go have this uncertain conversation with him that is scary with him when the door knob turned and I froze. Arthur came in and to my pleasure and displeasure, he wore a giant smile on his face probably happy that he could finally see me, honestly after my mini-investigation in the semi-afternoon, I was not so sure anymore."Hey, well... Aren't you a sight for sore eyes. A kiss?" He asked, walking towards me in such a hurry, you might mistake me for the breath of life. He looked so good and I knew I could get easily distracted by that but I chose not to. I rose a han

ELSA'S POVOur wedding night had not been what I thought it was going to be. It was everything I imagined and more and the fact that I did not get any sleep was pleasing instead of stressful. When I opened my eyes the next morning, I could not find Arthur, I sat up, rubbing my eyes from the pleasing exhaustion at the same time. I looked around and if I was being honest just as I felt different, in a good way, the room looked different too. So different and good too. I flashed a smile to myself as I thought that of course it would look different because I was not in my room, I was in Arthur's room or if I was being accurate, I would say my room. I got up from the bed and walked swiftly to the mirror, naked. I looked at myself in the mirror and not only did I feel different, I looked different. There were hickeys on my neck and ear, it was certainly an interesting look. I wore the robe I found on Arthur's side of the bed, which was made and a white card that had little hearts on it. I

ELSA'S POVThe big wedding was in motion. I mean the planning was in motion but it was the same thing. Most people were so surprised when Arthur gave the announcement that day. Shocked to the brim and beyond while some smiled and nodded their approval. The rest just glared at me as though they would have loved to stab me with a knife if it was allowed. Shreds. And I did not even blame them, I was still surprised myself. I was so excited just as I was anxious. I still had a baby growing in me and I did not know the father and I was freaking out. I could scratch my own eyes out. Just as the wedding planning was in set, so was my running away planning. I needed to flee with my head still intact."What are doing in here staring at the wall?" I turned and saw Nia standing at the door with an amused look on her face. I flashed her a smile and shook my head slowly, thinking of what to say. "Arthur has been smiling since yesterday, I am so surprised that his jaw is not been hurting yet." She

ELSA'S POVI had no idea that there was a cabin back here. When Emily directed me here it was like she had been blabbing. I had walked this whole place and this was the first time I was seeing this place. I guess the structure of the house was weird. I stood in front of the 'invisible' cabin and searched for the most important words at that moment. I knew the words I wanted to say were that I loved him so much, that l was willing to put away the paralysis of fear that held me down, and that I wanted to be his wife. That I was going to be his wife. That was the most important one. I took three bold and quiet steps up the small stair that had its wood painted red. Nice.My stomach rumbled in fear and my heart thudded against my chest. I raised my hands to knock and surprisingly on the first attempt it landed on the door with a very faint thud, produ

NIA'S POV"I wanted it to be a surprise for you. But I just needed something to give me an edge and make you listen to me. I love you and if staying here will make you believe it then I'm staying here and I'm not leaving. But that depends on what you think of it all. I need to be sure that you are comfortable with it. I don't want to shove anything down your throat and force you to want this just because I do. Do you understand?" He asked and I nodded. A big smile on my face."Woah. I love how you put things and I love that you are doing this for me. You have no idea how much it means to me, Silas. I have never been in love and most importantly I have never had someone love me to the extent of wanting to make a big change as big as what you just announced to make me happy. And I love you too. So much." I said and he closed his eyes for a moment, s

NIA'S POVThere he was. Silas, sat at the edge of the large rock everyone seemed to like. I smiled lightly at the cliche of happy things. I had searched everywhere for him, now that I think about it, why did I not search for him here before going to their tent area? Silly of me.I walked further into the space and I saw a striking blonde woman, who if I was being honest, I had nothing on. Why was Silas talking to this woman out here in the love garden? And why was I suddenly comparing this woman whom I did not know to myself? Insecurities were never a friend. Silas turned to look at them and immediately stood up, putting a clever distance between the both of them as if they were close. They were not. So why was he tripping?"Hey! Um... Hi." He said, grasping for words to say. I gave him a tight-lipped smile and nodded to tell him that I had heard the first greeting and he did not need to repeat it."Hi, if you have a company that would stay long then maybe I should come back, I was th

URSULA'S POV"Woah, mum. You are not selling my sister and definitely not the same man you sold me off to. I will not let that happen. If you need the money do bad and Dad can't control his silly problem and you love him so much, why don't you just go get married to Arthur yourself." I said they both gasped. Okay even though I was angry at that moment I had to admit it was nice to actually get a reaction from my father. He was such a doll sometimes. But apparently, he was not when he was being irresponsible with his money, ordering the servants and selling off his children."You dashed everything I once wanted for myself a few years ago and I am not going to let you do that to Sasha too. You do not even ask us what we want, or what we need. You just know that you have to get your money up and running. Did you ask her what she wanted?" I asked and my mother gestured behind me."She's right behind you and you can use your ears to hear that she was okay with it." I turned around and saw

URSULA'S POVWe all just sat there, no words being said. I guess maybe we were all basking in the memory we had spent in the house. I could not just let the house sell, it was unacceptable, that was where I had my first steps, and said my first words. I opened my mouth, then closed it again. Convinced that even if words were going to come out it was going to be all memories and not help anybody in the current situation we were in. A question finally came out."Um... So how did this happen and why was I not informed sooner?" I finally asked, tired. My family had no perks, only disadvantages. It was maddening and annoying."Well, we thought we could fix it on our own and still think we can fix it, we just need time and six days is no time." My mother said, looking over her shoulders at my father who still had his back on the chair. I wondered how he was still calm enough after all this bad news, it was his farm and he had a lot of land to use. I mean I would not go hungry, cannot. I was

URSULA'S POVThe smile that was on my face when I saw that Nia and Gloria were talking was very big. I wore a big smile on my face because that was enough proof to know that the story I had given her had worked. I wanted this meeting to have a very successful outcome and I knew that could not happen if the two key people involved could not deal with each other, it would not be a success. It would be a big disaster and I did not want that.Now that that seemed settled, I looked around, my eyes searching for Andrew. It was a dreaded day for Arthur, for everyone, but I bet he was with him. The event had already begun and the both of them were still not seen so I could bet that some pep talks were being carried out. There were a lot of faces here, a lot of young faces eager to be the lycan king's wife if only they knew that it was no fairytale but rather it was a nightmare I would bet my ass that they would not be here right now with big smiles on their faces. My eyes caught what seemed t
