Chapter 73

Lydia’s POV

I tightened my hold on her arm and we walked into the meeting room.

“How do you feel about this?” I asked Lily softly.

“I don't know how to feel,” she responded truthfully, “I mean, in a way, everyone expects me to be sad or to want justice but I just want it to be over. All I want is to forget,”

I was about to reply when Lyssandra swept in front of us with a sneer on her face.

“Pretty bold of you to waltz in here holding his daughter like you didn't kill Richard,”

“She didn't kill him!” Lily snapped at Lyssandra in irritation as we both walked and took a seat among the council members.

I tried to catch Darwin’s eyes at the head of the table but he either didn't notice me or ignored me.

“Sweet Child. I'm sure betrayal like this must come as a shock to you,” Lyssandra cooed with fake sympathy.

“Lady Lyssandra, please refrain from your accusations. We are here to find out the truth so it's entirely unnecessary,” Amari lept to Lily’s defence immediately.

    Chapter 74Lydia’s pov“Hey,” Lily nudged me slightly “You okay?”I looked up from my phone quickly and gave her a nod.“Yeah, I’m good. I’m going to stay back a bit and talk to Darwin,” “K, I’ll be outside,” Lily adjusted her glasses as Amari held out his arm for her and they both walked out of the meeting room.Sounds of chairs scraping against the floor filled the room as several other council members also got to their feet and exited the room.My heart raced as I stared at Darwin and tried to decipher his emotions from his face. He blocked me out completely and I could barely feel a thing so all I could do was hope.He has forgiven me, right? He has to have. That is the only reason he would make Lyssandra apologize to me.The moment the meeting room door shut behind the last council member, the room suddenly felt very quiet.“Darwin?” I said with a soft smile as I moved my chair back and got to my feet.I observed his face. He just sat there, rock still, with no expression on his

    Chapter 76Lydia’s POVMy form wavered and I ducked as Lily threw a knife at me.“I really think you should do something about Keren,” Lily complained as she threw another knife.I tried to phase out but my form flickered and the knife grazed me. “Ow!” I hissed as I slapped a hand over the line on my arm that had already tinged red.“Focus,” Margery growled as I materialised fully and she whacked me with a stick.“Ow!” I hissed and jerked back. “How can i focus when Lily keeps—-,”I paused to dodge another poorly aimed knife from Lily.“Keeps launching knifes at me!” I groaned as I tried to take control of my magic.“We both know, if I had aim half as good as you, I would have hit you by now,” Lily chuckled as she jumped down from the branch she had been dangling on and adjusted her skirt.“Something’s wrong. I mean, you don’t exactly ace your training sessions but you’re extra terrible today,”My brows shot up as I glanced at Marg in disbelief.“No offense,” Lily chuckled as she ben

    I stared disoriented in shock as a voice I recognized as my own screamed and screamed and screamed.My hands were covered in blood and trembling as tears streamed down my face and I tried and failed to rouse the woman on the floor before me.I vaguely registered several workers rushing toward the base of the stairs and trying to help me with Freya.“What have you done?!” Lyssandra’s screech cut through my shock as she roughly shoved me out of the way and crashed to the floor beside Freya.“Freya! FREYA!!” Lyssandra screamed in terror and began to weep.“The baby?! Freya!” Wilson rushed towards us and began to check Freya’s pulse.All strength seemed to leave my body as I stared helplessly.“Shit Lydia! What happened?” Lily arrived by my side, and held my arms to gently guide me from Lyssandra’s side.“I…I-“ I shook, unable to form an intelligible sentence.“We need to get her to the infirmary. Now!” Margery yelled as she alongside some palace workers lifted Freya into a stretcher.“F

I’m having an important conversation with the king,” I frowned and turned back to Darwin to continue our conversation.“DON’T LET HIM NEAR HER,”Darwin growled in a low voice that had me raising my brows.Amari had a bow and left the room as the temperature in the room plummeted and I turned back to face the murderous expression on Darwin’s face.I could see his hands clenched into fists and he took deep breaths as his eyes flickered.“Darwin,” I moved slowly to the edge of the bed and gently turned his face to mine. “Who is Vren?”Each muscle in Darwin’s frame was stretched taut and I did my best to start a tiento trait for his response instead of badgering him like I desperately wanted to do.“Margery’s mate,” Darwin growled.“And the far Lyssandra cheated with,” I whispered as I recalled everything Margery had told me about him.Shit.Even if Darwin was going to forgive my lie, the constant reminder of Vren being a fae

    ———————-Chapter 79I paced outside the meeting room with Darwin, Lily, and Amari staring at me.“What?” I narrowed my eyes at them. “Oh please! I can't be the only one who wants to know what Margery has to do with his dying mother. I mean sure she met the woman and lived with her for years, but surely it makes no sense to journey all the way here just to deliver that information?”“Lydia relax. When Lady Margery comes out, she'll decide what she needs to tell us and what she doesn't need to,” Lily tapped away at her phone and waved me off with a hand.“Amari?” I turned to her mate. “Aren't you curious?” “Of course he is,” Lyssandra hissed as she strolled down the hallway towards us. “But like me, he's probably more curious about the black magic you handled back there,”“Haven’t you heard of minding your business?!” Lily snapped and dropped her phone on her lap.“It is my business of the King has decided to make som—” Lyssandra’s voice cut off as I flicked my wrist and sent a small

    Chapter 80I paused for a second then burst into laughter.“What’s funny?” Vren looked around in slight confusion.“You,” I sobered up. “Why on earth would I leave the Rogue Kingdom for Thoranelle? Huh?”“What are you?” Vren hissed in irritation. “You have magic I can’t explain away. You’re coming with me so I decide on you when we get back to Thoranelle,”“Look Vren,” I shook my head and massaged my temple gently. “You might be a prince who’s used to everyone obeying his commands, but I am a queen. You don’t command me and I will most certainly NOT be coming with you to Thoranelle,”Vren blinked at me, like he had never considered me rejecting his offer.What an arrogant man!I rolled my eyes and turned to walk towards the infirmary. “Have a safe trip Vren. And if you hurt Margery, I’ll find you and show you just how powerful my shadows can get,”Before he could say I word, I scampered away as quickly as I could.———————“This is ridiculous!

If I give you the paper can you write it?”“Not possible,” Darwin shook his head.Shit she really thought of every thing.I hissed in irritation and flicked my ponytail.“It’s okay darling. Come here,” Darwin reached for me.I groaned in frustration.“How do I help you if I don’t even know exactly what happened!”“You don’t,” Darwin replied. “I’ll deal with it just like I’ve always done. Right now we have bigger fish to fry,”“What is it?” I asked as I sat on the bed beside him. “Is there another problem?”“You performed magic today in front of different people.

    Chapter 81For my own good? Whatever he had done didn’t feel like it was for my own good as I groaned and rolled over on the moving hard surface to empty the contents of my stomach.I retched and clutched my stomach while taking deep breaths. Empty. My stomach was so empty, I had nothing to vomit.My head bobbed up and down, hitting against the floor as a dull throbbing ache began behind my eyes.I groaned softly and blinked my eyes open. I was in a vehicle. A truck?I had no idea. It was dark and the engine made a terrible noise. Slowly? I pushed myself to a sitting position and raised a hand to the back of my head where a small egg-sized bump awaited me.WILSON! Did he hit me?! What the hell?!“So you’re finally up,” Drusilla drawled lazily.“What the hell happened!” I groaned as I looked around, straining my eyes to see around me.“You’re awake,” I jerked and hit my head against the side of the truck with a groan.“Margery, what the hell!”“Here, have some water,”I blinked and l

She paused and stared at the scene before her with a smile on her face. “Just how many people are walking you down the aisle?” I chuckled and looked from Vren to Serena and Freya “Well you can’t fault me for having three people to walk me. Besides this is my third wedding,” Everyone chuckled and Lily rolled her eyes. “Enough of all this. Everyone in the hall now! Before Margery comes and here and catches this scene,” “Sorry guys,” I laughed as the palace guards opened the hall doors and they shuffled away in a file. “Not you Vren,” Lily called out at the last minute. “ I mean, your highness? What am I supposed to address you as?” Lily bowed with a chuckle. “Nonsense. That’s not necessary, especially in your condition,” Vren shook his head, making me smile. In the last four months I spent in Thoranelle learning the ropes, we had grown incredibly closer. Yes, you read that right. Vren stepped down f

    My vision blurred with tears and I made to run to him when Lyssandra stepped in front of me and shook her head.“Uh-huh,” she chuckled. “If you belong to me now, you cannot go running to them at the slightest provocation,”A humorless chuckle left me as my tears spilled down my cheeks. She had been married to and mates to this man. How could she be so heartless?“Then call them off. Call of your guard dogs,” I whispered pleadingly.“Of course,” she purred and snapped her fingers.Like as though we were in some sort of trance, the entire palace went silent.The only sound was Margery’s soft groaning from where she lay on the floor.My eyes found Darwin and relief rushed through me as I saw he was still standing but he was losing blood and fast.I tried to move to him but the hall swam before my eyes and I paused.Lyssandra chuckled and picked up the bloodied knife from the floor.“You belong to me now,” she smirked as she lifted the knife to my throat.I swallowed.

    Chapter 113A still calm seemed to come over me as I moved back from Lily and staggered to my feet.Blood was still flowing from the wound in my hand. My legs shook as I stared at Margery on the floor.She had her hand on her stomach where blood was pooling fast.Her lips were white as she groaned softly.Vren was here. What? How?My shock was replaced by fear as Vren screamed in pain and crashed to the floor beside Margery.All around me, the people I loved were hurt and in pain because of this woman.Drusilla growled in anger and my entire frame trembled badly. I knew she wanted to shift and take over and I wanted to let her. So badly.But Margery needed my help, I moved to Margery’s side as quickly as I could and pressed my dripping palm to her lips.“W what?-“ Vren raised his crazed eyes to me but I didn’t have time for that.I couldn’t focus, not when this woman had control of all the pack members.My head swiveled, searching for Lyssandra and where Darwin had gone.“Shit!” Amari

What the hell was happening?!Fear rushed through me and I flew down the hallway at lightning speed.“Lydia?!” Dimitri called my name a second before I went crashing into him.He held me from falling “What happened?! Where were you?! I thought you were on the aisle then next thing—““You thought I was on the aisle?! They were two brides?!” Shit! Lyssandra planned to pose as me.“Yeah and—“I paused Dimitri and listened in fear again as more loud shouts carried over to me. They seemed to be intensifying.“What the hell is going on?!” It sounded like protests Dimitri and I broke into a run as pack members began to flood into the palace.“Shit!” I swore under my breath.“Your majesty, over here!” Alexander and my guards covered Dimitri and me as the pack members yelled.The sounds o

    The Wedding.“And you're certain this plan will work?!” Dimitri asked for the hundredth time.“Shut up and get out of my head,” I hissed impatiently. “We don’t have a choice. It's too late to make adjustments. We just have to carry on and hope for the best,”A knock sounded at my bedroom door, I got to my feet slowly and turned around as the door opened and Margery filed in with a team of beauty professionals.“Good morning Your Majesty,” she chirped happily and clapped her hands. “It’s time for your wedding!”Her good mood was infectious and my lips tugged up in a smile too.“Morning Marge,” I smiled.“Your Majesty,” A worker passed me a cup of tea.“Thank you,” I took it and blew gently on the steam.“Okay, everyone let’s get to work,”I took my seat as they began. Within the next two hours, they worked on my nails, styled my hair, did my makeup, and helped meInto my dress.“You have impeccable taste,” I smiled at Margery and patted my hand down my white lacy dress.“I can’t decid

She uncapped a lipstick and began to scrawl on it.“Look, we've approached it from several different scenarios. I know Lyssie. She would never tell us how to break the enchantment so that’s out of it,” she drew a red X on one part of the mirror.“We can’t kidnap or hold her in some cell. Dad and I tried, we released the news she was dead and kept her incapacitated for years.She found a way to make him go crazy so he bought her the elixir,” She drew another X“She definitely won’t be repenting and turning a new leaf anytime soon, and she has started manipulating the pack members,” She drew an X with a sigh.“Manipulating the pack?” I looked at Margery. “What is she talking about,”“His Majesty requested w

    Chapter 109“Thank you, Alpha for having us. Our stay at Silver Streak was memorable,”I smiled at Serena softly. Her eyes watered and to the shock of everyone around she enveloped me in a hug. I froze for a beat then gently brought my hand up to enclose her.“Thank you, Lydia. I hope everything goes well. If you need help, call me and I’ll definitely be showing up for your wedding,” Serena whispered as she stepped back with a small smile.She turned to Dimitri and I didn’t fail to notice the look that passed between the two of them.“Lycan,” Serena bowed. “Alpha,” Dimitri repeated her motion with a chuckle. I rolled my eyes in amusement, he’s never serious.“Momma!” My eyes went straight to the beautiful silver haired little girl coming our way. Anastasia held on to her hand but she was bustling full of energy and ready to bolt towards us.Of their own accord, my feet carried me a few steps toward her until we stopped before each other.“Your Majesty” she chirped and gave a cute

She’s a fighter,” Serena gave me a hopeful nod and wiped Claire’s brow with a towel.“What happened?” I voiced the question that had been eating at me since I first saw her sick frame.Serena sighed and sat up fully to look at me. “A fall,”“Pardon?” I was horrified. Just look at her, she’s tiny, how could she have fallen and just where did she fall from?“Yeah,” Serena chuckled humorlessly “My reaction exactly. She was four, a few days before her fifth birthday. She said to me— Momma can I play in the garden with Papa. I said yes,”A small gasp left me. Since she was four. That was two years ago.“They played on the trees and he left.

Her eyes were closed and her breathing was even. I placed my palm on her head to feel her temperature and her eyes snapped open.“Claire?!” Serena whispered in excitement. She dropped the towel and held her daughter's hand tightly. “Claire baby,”The workers in the room began to murmur in excitement and I even saw a maid hurry off, presumably to call a doctor or nurse.Claire had her eyes open but she wasn’t staring at her mother. The baby girl was staring straight at me. I blinked in surprise.She could see me? I gave her a shaky smile and waved at her. Her eyes lit up a little and her lips moved.She mouthed two words. “Save me,” Then she closed her eyes.Her mother clearly heard her. My heart broke as Serena’s ey
