The silence that followed Rhode’s announcement was almost deafening. For a moment, Megan felt as though the ground would be very kind to open up and swallow her.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of someone clapping, and one by one the sound of clapping grew more and everyone was standing.

“Welcome, our future queen.” Lord Rosebud said, approaching her with outstretched arms.

The gesture took Megan by surprise but she was very glad. She hugged Lord Rosebud and for the first time since she stepped out of the carriage, she left Rhode’s hand.

“Thank you.” She said to him,

Rhode took her hand back in his and she smiled back at him. He leaned and whispered in her ear, “the worst part is over. We’ll be back at your temporary quarters shortly.” She nodded in response.

One by one, every person that was present came to pay their respects to Rhode and Megan.

“I am glad the King has finally found a good thing.” One of the old men said.

“Welcome to the West.” Another said.

“It’s good to finally have

    Brian and Brianna walked awkwardly out of the room and Brian mentally face-palmed himself and muttered “stupid.”He had made Brianna upset with him by stepping back but the reason he did that was because he did not want her to see just how flushed he was.As they walked down the same hall they followed to Megan’s new room, they approached the intersection and Brian said, “I should take you to your room or do you rather be reunited with lady Rosetta?” He asked her. She was avoiding eye contact with him, “I do not think I have the strength right now. I would rather be in my room. Do I share a room with Rosetta?”“I would have to see with the head of palace affairs. I could take you to my room in the meantime, to rest.”Brianna was sure that she flushed red, “Oh, no! I would not want to impose and, is that allowed in the West?... I mean, we are unmarried after all.” She said the last part in a low voice.Brian chuckled, “I suppose not but who actually follows that rule set by prudes? Mor

    For what felt like hours, Rhode and Brian were in some sort of stare-down. The two men watched each other, barely blinking in the minutes that had gone by.Rhode was waiting for Brian to say that his earlier statement was a joke and Brian was wishing he had not said it outloud the moment the words left his mouth.He had just thought about it the moment he said it out. What he actually wanted to tell Rhode was that he needed some advice on how to relate with Brianna. He felt that for some reason there was always something that caused a misunderstanding between the two of them and between him and Rhode, Rhode had way more experience with women, for the sole reason that even though they flocked all around him, he dismissed them with care for their feelings. Brian on the other hand, froze at any interaction or contact with women so he really was winging it with Brianna and he was failing woefully.“You want to marry lady Brianna.” Rhode finally broke the silence and stare-down. The thing

    In the palace, somewhere in the guest wing was Mirabel Fulher. She was being attended to by her ladies in waiting when the door flew open and Anne, another of her ladies came rushing in.“The king has returned!” She announced, stopping right in front of where Mirabel was sitting, panting profusely.“With a bride.” She said the last part after catching her breath for a few seconds.“What?!” Mary, the lady who was fanning Mirabel exclaimed, “you should be used to Anne’s jokes by now. She is clearly joking. The king would never marry and when he does, it will be to our future queen, lady Mirabel.” Lily, the other lady said.Mirabel used her hand to dismiss both ladies from standing close to her, Anne was still panting.

    “My lady,” Mary’s voice snapped her out of her thoughts. She was back to the very harsh reality. Although she was married to Rhode’s late brother, she always felt that as long as Rhode remained unmarried, she could bear not being with him. As long as no other woman got to have him, she was okay.She was shattered by the news of her husband succumbing to his illness, she was a widow at 28 years. She was not going to be queen anymore and that was what her father cared about most in the world.A grieving widow, she was surprised to be told to remain in the palace, afterall the throne was now empty and the next in line was Rhode. There was no way Rhode was going to marry her. He had already rejected her.“You will marry his brother, Rhode.” Her father said to her on one of the many pa

    “Right away my lady.” Lily rushed into the bathroom and Mirabel took a seat, waiting for her to prepare the bath.She took a deep sigh. Her father had basically abandoned her when Rhode told him to never speak of her marrying him again.She thought her father wanted nothing to do with her. She was now unimportant and although it hurt, Mirabel had peace for the first time in her life. She was a disappointment but she did not mind.Being summoned means she has a role to play in his cruel game again. She was going to be a pawn again and honestly, she was tired.“Your bath is ready, my…my lady.” Lily stuttered.Mirabel got up and took a quick bath. Since he

    Mirabel approached the mansion, heart pounding in her chest. Children who grew up in a normal, functioning family would be glad to return home after so long but all Mirabel wanted to do was run away. Run away from the West if possible but she didn’t even have the strength to do so.The doorman opened the door and she entered the mansion, heading for the balcony where her parents always sat.She didn’t miss the lack of ceramic in the hallway. He must have broken them all. He would never change.She walked towards the balcony and as she entered she saw her mother and father. She had not seen them in months despite the fact that her father was a regular at the palace.“Mirabel, dear! How are you?” Her mother gleamed at her with that fake, plastic smi

    The sound of Megan screaming was almost deafening. Rhode shut his eyes immediately, “I apologize!” He said, taking a step, then another backwards until he was out of the room. As he shut the door, he said “I promise, I did not see anything.”Inside the room, Megan was flushed. Truth was, she wasn’t undressed or improperly dressed. She was standing in front of her new vanity and taught to decorate her hair with what was left of the flowers. She had just started to realize how ridiculous it looked and was about to take them out when the door flew open.She looked at herself in the mirror, cupping her face, “did he really not see anything?”She sighed and reached for the first flower petal sticking out and laughed at herself. She never thought to do anything this silly when she

    Richardson got up quickly from the floor which had been his bed since the day of the divorce. He unlocked the door and rushed outside. He was met face to face with Lord Anthony, his chief advisor.He thought there would at least be a few people at the door but it was just Lord Anthony. The one person he really did not want to see.“Your majesty…” Lord Anthony began. He always wore such a stern and strict look on his face. Richardson could swear that he had never seen him crack a smile. Voluntarily or involuntarily.“Good… day, Lord Anthony.” He said, unsure of what time it was.“I cannot believe I had to lie that something is wrong with the mother of your child to get you to leave your chambers, my king. It has been two d

    Rhode had never been so glad to see the borders of the West before. He had never thought he would feel the pang of relief he was feeling now as he stared at the border sign half a mile away in clear distance. He was happy to know that he had delivered on his words. He was happy to know that he was finally claiming exclusive rights to the West's territorial seas. It was a piece of the West that was closely coveted by other packs, and now, by a stroke of luck and Richardson's gullibility, the seas were in the palm of his hands.It was something his grandfather had tried to attain even when the West was not at its peak and failed, his father the same thing, even down to his brother, he was just relieved that he could fulfill their dreams at last.He had also done it for Megan back home, the sea would be a gift to her as he finally takes her to the altar after his return. Ge briefly thought about what his council men would say, before swiftly shaking off the thought. He cared nothing for

    “What in the moon above do you think you are doing, Lord Fuhler?!” Megan yelled in righteous fury as she rose up from her seat to descend upon Lord Fuhler in all her rage.He was such an imbecile, to strike a woman barely out of labor, and Megan was filled with a strange kind of disgust for him.“She called me a teller of tales!” Lord Fuhler yelled back, causing Megan to scoff as she turned her head to look at Marcel standing solidly behind her.“Restrain him!” Megan yelled again, her eyes burning with power. She was not usually this explosive generally, but striking a woman fresh out of the labor room was crossing the line.Marcel was quick to do as she commanded because In the next instant, he was next to Fuhler, and gripped his upper arm tightly, causing Fuhler's face to turn a furious purple.“Slow down, your majesty.” The cautious voice of Lord Rosebud roused Megan from her angry haze, and she turned around to glance in his direction, before giving him a subtle nod.“This lady is

    “What is going on here?!” Megan yelled as she burst through the heavy doors that shielded the council room and was met with a horde of people as they pushed around and demanded justice.“Nice to finally have your attention, my queen.” Lord Fuhler grinned with a mocking bow, and Megan frowned. Everything about the statement and situation was wrong. He had never acknowledged her as queen before, and the entire court was in chaos when he finally did.When the crowd heard the word “queen” they turned their anger on her and demanded justice in garbled tones jumbled together. It was a disaster.Megan looked around her quickly for Lord Rosebud. He was the only council man she trusted after all, and the crowd were looking more than hostile as they threatened to lynch and destroy.With her head tucked forward with determination, Megan tried to use her eyes to locate Lord Rosebud quickly before Lord Fuhler found the time to launch his newest schemes that were undoubtedly designed to hurt her.“

    The carcass of the dead beast was dragged in by a dozen wolves as they tried to reel it back to camp. The smell of blood was still heavy on the air, and Rhode was already back in his human form as he stood silently and watched the efforts made to thrust up their newest kill.Rhode could not help but smile. The kill was big enough to feed his men for the night, so it was a win. As he sat under the silver sky, he could not help but wonder how Megan was faring. His last decision to put her in power was born out of impulse, which shocked him, he was never a man of impulse after all, or maybe he was and just did not know it, but one thing was for sure, there would be consequences.William rushed over to stand beside him silently, but Rhode sighed in exhaustion, a sudden weariness creeping into his bones because he knew for a fact that if he continuously failed to get his affairs in order, then he would end up like his brother, leaving Megan widowed and abandoned in a foreign land.

    Rhode stared at the happy faces of his men under the moonlight. They were all at home right then, even if they were miles away from their families and loved ones. Being civilized was the price they all had to pay for the life they had, but at times they were all overcome by a deep and dark sense of nostalgia that urged them to throw everything away and become one with the moon and the untamed creature within.It was something every wolf experienced as they were often forced to suppress their primal nature in order to live as civilized men. But it was more prevalent in men, so he knew every man under the sound of his voice could feel what he felt.He turned to look at Brian and noticed the light finally coming back to his features after days and weeks of endless court intrigues.He could only hope that Megan was alright back in the palace. He felt selfish for enjoying such a feeling of freedom without her but knew that he shouldn't. It was not what she would want, he could tell.He had

    Rhode was already exhausted as he could feel his thighs chapping with every move of the horse he was on. He was not a novice rider by any chance, in fact he had learned how to handle a saddle before he could even shift into the creature that resided inside of him, but even the most seasoned horse rider would have gotten sick of being on top of the beast by now.He knew that if he was feeling this tired, and yet shockingly restless, then his men must be having it worse. They had been on the saddle for three days and three nights with no breaks in between after all.“How are you holding up?” Rhode turned to ask the surprisingly young man that rode by his left hand side. The young man was responsible for holding on to his armor, and by rights should not be able to keep up with his men, but Rhode was shocked by the dogged determination the boy had been exhibiting.“I am alright, alpha.” The boy answered, his voice tight with strain, and Rhode had to smile at this. They could converse now

    Richardson could not help but gloat at the sight of the left state counselor's triumphant face. The man believed he had won, believing that with a few well placed strikes he had managed to disarm Richardson, which almost caused the alpha to gloat at his beady face.“We are going to squash the Faes!” Right stare counselor yelled, his eyes alight with a fierce light, and Richardson could not help but grin at the sight before him.He knew why they were so happy, knew that it had nothing to do with submerging the Faes and everything to do with the planned coup they planned on carrying out against him, and he could not help but grin bitterly.“Alpha, this could only mean one thing.” His trusted advisor Roderick murmured in his ear. But Richardson was unmoved, Roderick was not telling him anything he did not already know, so it kind of dampened the whole dramatics.“It will be alright.” Richardson shrugged, his expression carefully blank, trying to give nothing away.He knew that any slight

    It felt like Aspen had been travelling on the rocky roads for days. Some days they strayed towards civilization, but her scruffy companion for some reason insisted that they kept closer to the swamp. A fact that never failed to rouse Aspen’s ire. She was with child, and more filthy and disgusting than she had ever been, and what was worse? She was expected to be okay with it! She had once tried to voice her concerns, but her scruffy companion simply stared at her with beady unsympathetic eyes that were void of any true desire to make her life more comfortable.“Wait! Slow down you bumble head!” Aspen yelled out raspily. Her voice was gone from serious dehydration. At this point she was seriously beginning to fear for the health of her poor baby.“Look, you could dawdle here all you want and wait for our captors to catch up with you, but I'm not going to do that with you, so I think we should part ways here.” Rudolph said firmly, his eyes unwavering, and Aspen gulped.

    Megan watched as Rhode and his army of about five hundred soldiers mount their horses they were intending to ride to the west. A lot of petitions were made for him to increase the number of warriors going with him, especially from Megan herself, but he did not take heed. Megan knew he did not wish to leave her defenseless so he was going without the appropriate amount of protection, and her love for him grew.Be safe out there.She nodded as he turned to find her in the crowd, he heard her, and he showed her by returning her firm nod.I will.It was an exchange of trust, so Megan tried to bite down on her anxiety as she wished she was not pregnant at the moment. It rendered her vulnerable, and Vulnerability was not entertained in the East.“He is really leaving.” Brianna whispered from where she stood behind Megan, and Rosetta nodded, her face lacking its usual cheer and awash with somberity.Megan could not help but wonder what caused such expression to overcome someone like Rosetta
