When I finished telling Nia what had happened the night before and how I felt about that, it was probably time for breakfast and if there was any way I could avoid it, it was no joke that I would."Hmmm. Well, while that sounded a little like a misunderstanding to me, I think you both should talk it out. Have a deep conversation and open the hell up with each other. You both have been on this back-and-forth thing for a long time. Maybe it's time to finally see if you're on the same page or not." Nia said, confusing me. Even though it sounded like she was making sense, it sounded too intense, impossible, and confusing for me to comprehend."I told you that I and the man had exchanged love words, we have said the words to each other and it was not just something I said to get off the fast proposal loop, it was something that I had said because I felt it, I meant it. I was not just in the momentRelated chapters
The Rejected Luna's Return Chapter Ninety-one
Breakfast. I didn't know when it happened but I was beginning to dread it. Every single morning Crystal or Agartha knocked on my door to tell me that dinner was ready, I searched my mind. Looking for a lie to tell so that I could skip this time of the day. Nia walked before me as we headed to the dining hall. After the most likely scary conversation we just had, she looked calm enough I had to applaud her for that. As soon as we entered the hall all eyes were on us. Everyone was seated and waiting for us. I sighed inwardly, waiting for the sassy words and the chastening and all, I knew that was going to happen. All bets better come at that moment, I would win. I refused to look at Arthur, even though I could feel his eyes on me. Last night was too complicated and not great at all, the last thing I wanted was us staring at each other for long moments with awkward flying around in the air like a disease. This was no Bollywood movie and I did not need th

NIA'S POVAfter my mini talk with Elsa, I sat alone in the garden, loving to think that the air that swept through my face was great and something that was at least taking a nice turn. The wind swept through my hair and I closed my eyes to its gentle touch. Maybe the morning was not bad at all. I heard footsteps just as I was about to stand up and move directly in the direction of the God-given wind, I turned to find Silas staring at me. A small smile on his face. I smiled too. I couldn't hold back, but not too flirty or and not to give anyone the tea in a mug. Especially Crystal. We were standing in the open area of the garden. Close to the doors, where anyone could easily throw their eyes and catch us... I prayed that day would not come. At least not now, not till I have figured everything out."Hey." He said. Eyes still smiling."Hi. You know you're becoming a garden person, that is kind of unexpected, trust me. You're more of a field guy, in fact, no wild guesses here, you are." I

NIA'S POVWhile Silas sat there, staring at me. Waiting for the answer that I was not even sure I could give. I sighed as thoughts raced through my mind. Ugly, nasty, wounding thoughts. What if the girl just wanted to set that up so that I could meet her mother and get beaten for snatching her daddy away? Which I didn't, he chose to come here and train the packs under the lycan king. Another thought; What if her mother knows the king and recognizes me as his wife? It was such an ugly thought. And I knew I wouldn't like the outcome. I turned to Silas and caught him watching me carefully. I placed a very plastic smile on my face to keep him from asking if I was fine or not. Of course, I was not. How does one say no in this kind of situation, because he wanted me to think about it? I, on the other hand, know that there is nothing to think about. A big, fat no was already at the tip of my tongue,

ELSA'S POVI stared at him for a while. Wondering if I was in the mood to play this game with him. I got my question immediately, I was not. I was not ready to play that game with him. But I was the one to ask him a question, right? I guess I had to deal with it. Face the music or whatever."So? What condition?" I asked back and his brows rose as if he couldn't believe that I was going with it. Hell, I could not believe that I was going with it either."Will you tell me why you love milk so much? You're a bit lean... Not being judgemental, just being a bit observant, I love you like this. So... You're a bit lean, and you've been drinking milk for a while now." He smiled and I went weak in the knees. Was this happening right now? We were now seriously talking about my body ty

ANDREW'S POVI needed a drink with a buddy and I had only one buddy in this palace. Arthur. Things were Ursula was going great and my love and need for her only free daily, but some days I couldn't help but feel the strain of guilt grabbing unto my neck like a blue ant. Some days the guilt hit me with no remorse making me question the kind of friend I was. Proclaiming my love and loyalty to my friend and king and falling in love with his wife behind his back. I walked fast, now eager to find him. As I was about to make a turn to the dining hall, I caught him and Elsa staring at each other. A big dopey grin on their faces. I stood there for a short while to behold. It was something great they had there. Whenever I remembered that he was not romantically available for anyone else but Elsa, it made the guilt fade away. Bit by bit. Then only to be rejuvenated again, it was a circle. I cleared my airway making their attention snatched from each other however hard that was. Arthur whispered

URSULA'S POVMy mind chanted continuously, but not in the way one would expect. I was in the mood for food all day long, in fact when Agartha knocked on my door as usual, at the special time she has always done so, I almost leaped for joy. That was weird and got me thinking. I am not a foodie, never was actually.As I walked down the stairs to the dining table, the smell of food that once comforted me and made me want to flee downstairs now changed. It made me... Want to puke? Did that even make any sense? No. I sat down at the table beside Andrew, which was now being a norm, it was a norm I was overly cool with. As my eyes hit the corn, I felt a bit of bile rise to my throat. My eyes suddenly started watering. Watering at the sight of... Corn? That was new."Are you okay?" Andrew whispered lightly beside me at the table, eyes

ARTHUR'S POV"In regards to what?" Andrew asked after a few seconds that felt like hours."The fact that he cannot visit that dining table without smiling at Elsa is telling and it's getting on my nerves. I am beginning to be angry about it all.""If you don't want him there, all you have to say is that you don't want him there.""It is not that easy, I don't want to come off as desperate and eager to everyone and especially not her. Call it childishness.""You know Elsa should know that you are just a human being like her, you're entitled to your feelings. Your feelings are also yours which makes them valid."

ELSA'S POVI sat quietly for a while just to be sure I had heard correctly."Why and how the hell would Elton know that?""Well, it is an open palace, right? I guess he has his source keeping an eye on you. Creepy."It is creepy indeed. So he told you? He was cool with you knowing that he has that information?""He told Silas and Silas told me, everything. And I mean everything. I thought you said you set things straight with him.""I did. I personally too him, there was no letter at work here. I had everything spelled out boldly for him, and here I am today learning that he has been spying on me." I said, the anger in me now tripling. I thought he and I were already done with that aspect and I found it hard to believe that he, of all people, would spy on me. I mean... I didn't know him that well but I knew that he was not a forceful personality. I was beginning to question that filed note. Maybe it was too much respect for a guy I did not know that well."Maybe you should talk to him

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
