Accalia-

“You are hurt.” Zydan grabbed my injured arm, which had a large gash from Arielle.

“I am fine.” I snatched my arm back.

“I can bandage it for you.” Zydan offered.

“Seriously, I will be fine.” I tried not to smile or meet his gaze.

“Lia!” Zydan suddenly jerked his head around and rushed back into the event hall.

“Crap.” I groaned as I ran after him.

I don’t know why I chased him, but when I saw the door to the room, he hid me in had been damaged, an idea formed in my head. Quickly running away, I used a different room and quietly closed the door. In full panic mode, I tried to transform myself into Lia again. I managed to do so as the door burst open, and Zydan entered the room.

The mask I had worn was still in my hand, so I hid it behind my back. Zydan approached me, wrapping his arms around my shoulders and hugging me tightly. My injured arm hurt as he squeezed it, but I tried to ignore the pain.

“What happened?” Zydan pulled away, and his eyes roamed over me until focusing

    Zydan-I was too stunned to move. The moment Eclipse called Lia Boss, I had thought Akira had arrived, and I hadn’t noticed. After I got downstairs and saw him talking to Lia, it was like every fiber in my body froze. I couldn’t move or think, and I was fairly sure I wasn’t breathing.“I can explain.” Lia shoved Eclipse away and walked toward me.I knew I should move, to do something, but I couldn’t. My thoughts were running a million miles a minute right now. Akira was Lia? Lia was Akira? It made a lot of things make sense, but I still couldn’t understand how I hadn’t noticed.“I hadn’t planned to tell you, but then I thought I should. After a few other things occurred, I wasn’t sure if I should. Then we had problems, so I thought it was best not to tell you. After our issues were resolved, I wanted to tell you, but I wasn’t sure how to. I have tried finding a way to tell you for a while, but there has always been a lingering doubt.” Lia stumbled over her words.I couldn’t understand

    Accalia-I wished I had given Zydan more time before sending him to training. During the twenty-four hours I gave him, he used it to ensure everything was in order for him to disappear for a month. I thought things would be okay the first few days after he left, but when the third week came around, I started to have doubts.Zydan repeatedly assured me that he wasn’t mad that I hid who I was from him, yet I couldn’t stop thinking he was angry. Besides the instructions I gave him before leaving, he hadn’t said much about us. I have heard he was doing well with his training, but we haven’t spoken since he left.He was allowed to have his phone after training but hasn’t contacted me. I have sent him a few texts to ask how he was holding up, but he never responded. Every time I tried calling him, it went straight to voicemail. Maybe I was overthinking things.Aside from Zydan being gone, not much had changed for me. I focused on researching what my mother left behind and on work. There was

    Accalia-“We’ve done everything we can, but the only thing we can do now is make him more comfortable.” The heart surgeon who operated on Brett said before walking away.Hanging my head, I leaned against the wall in the hall. I have been in the hospital for three days. I have called the best heart surgeon in the world, and knowing he couldn’t do anything made me feel hopeless. I tried getting Lyra to heal him, but there wasn’t anything she could do either.“What do you need me to do?” My father asked.On the way to the hospital, I called my father because he had connections all over the world. The second he heard my voice, he knew something was wrong and showed up at the hospital six hours later. He has been with me the entire time.“If it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t be in this situation.” I slid down the wall, wrapping my arms around my knees.“This wasn’t your fault.” My father crouched next to me, placing his hand on my shoulder. “You know that humans are fragile creatures.”“If I

    Accalia-“Why don’t you stay the night before returning?” My father asked as I opened the front door to leave.“No, I need to return.” I kept walking, closing the door before he could say anything else.The funeral had been beautiful, but it still left me feeling dejected. I felt as if something was missing. Walking away from my family home, I climbed into the car my father prepared for me to take me to the airport.On the way to the airport, I sat in the back seat, looking out the window. I wasn’t paying attention to the scenery we drove by. Ever since I watched Brett’s casket being lowered into the ground, I have been physically numb.“We are here.” The driver said after he parked the car in front of the airport.“Thank you.” I murmured as I exited the vehicle.I hadn’t brought any luggage, so I went directly into the building. Going through the motions of checking in, I didn’t need to wait long to be allowed to board the private jet. As I was about to walk up the stairs, my phone r

    Accalia-When the recognition party day comes, I am more than eager to see Zydan. After that night at the beach, I feel like I have become different. I spent much of the week working on the BRECK project, but I seemed more focused this time. Every time I ran into a problem in the past, I struggled to find a solution.I believed I was on the right path with the information I received from another company, my mother’s research, and my own. I had a good feeling that if things continued the way I believed they would, I would be ready to bring it up at the event in three months. With the funds I could acquire from the Renegades and the money my father was willing to inject into a project of my choice, I could achieve my goals.I was eager to talk to Zydan about everything, including revealing who I am. Arriving at the hotel where the party was held, I looked around for Zydan. Eclipse informed me that he was already at the party.“Have you seen Alpha Zydan?” I asked a waitress who was servi

    Accalia-Today was the day, and the only thing I wanted to do was run for the hills. Until I walked into the hotel with Zydan, I was prepared to reveal my identity to everyone. Digging my heels in, I stopped walking and pulled Zydan to a stop.“What is wrong?” Zydan turned to face me.“I think I left something at the lab.” I tried to let go of Zydan’s hand, but he held it tight.“You checked over five times before we left the lab yesterday. Everything we need to show our project is right here.” He patted his free hand over his chest, where the flash drive we prepared rested in a pocket within the inner lining of his suit.“Then maybe we need to go over the material again.”“Take a deep breath. I know you are nervous, but everything is perfect. I believe we will get the funds once we meet with Accalia.”I could tell him I was Accalia right now, but I had already planned to reveal who I was in front of everyone. Since our relationship has improved, I thought I could surprise him. I plan

    Accalia-“Give it back! It is mine!” Arielle grabbed the necklace again before I could pull it out of her reach.“Tell me where you got that!” I demanded, but I didn’t try retaking the necklace.“I have had it since I was a kid.” Arielle stuffed the necklace in her purse, moving it behind her back.“No, you haven’t. I will ask you once again: If you don’t answer me honestly, I promise you will regret it.” My jaw tensed, as did my hands.“What is going on?” Zydan stepped forward, standing beside me.“I want to know where she got that necklace.” I explained.“She said it was something from her family if I remember correctly.” Zydan answered.“How do you know about it? That crest is sacred to the Thorne family, but only the Alpha King, his wife, and his daughter know about it. It comes from the Thorne family, but Arielle shouldn’t possess it.”“I have been looking for that crest for six years. It is the only clue about the girl who saved me. What are you saying? That crest isn’t Arielle’

    Accalia-"Say it's not true!" Azure dropped to her knees before me, wrapping her hands around my exposed ankles. "Tell me you aren't the Lightning Queen and Princess Accalia."I thought I would enjoy how Zydan's mother would react upon learning my identity, but this was embarrassing—not for me, but for her. Looking over at Silica for help, I was grateful when she forced Asure to release me.Focusing on Zydan, I wished I had told him the truth when it was just us. Now I would need to expose my thoughts and feelings in front of everyone to explain. None of this is how I planned on revealing my identity, so everything I had planned was pointless."I am Accalia." I muttered to at least give him confirmation.After admitting to it, I snapped my fingers at Silica, who tossed me the mask I usually wore as Accalia. As I had with revealing my identity as Akira, I put on the mask and changed my appearance. After everyone got a good look at me, I removed the mask but kept my blonde hair."So, al

    Accalia-“I already told you that whenever you are ready, I was willing. All you need to do is say the word. I know you wanted to wait to become Alpha Queen, so there is no rush. I will wait until you are ready.”My smile widened. “I am ready now.”Zydan’s face paled, and I wondered if he had second thoughts about marrying me. “Wait. Are you serious?”“I have never been more serious.” I nodded. “I realized that while I was going through all my memories again, I have always focused on what mattered to me and what I wanted. I thought I was making the right decision by waiting until my project was complete and becoming Alpha Queen before marrying you again. I now understand that when I get married was never important. Even if I am married, I can still abolish the marriage law for the future generations.”“Then when do you want to get married?” Zydan smiled, and excitement sparkled in his eyes.“Now.” I stated bluntly.“What about the wedding?” My father asked when Zydan threw my covers o

    Accalia-Ow, my head, I thought as I started to wake up. Opening my eyes, I took in my surroundings but didn’t recognize where I was. I was lying on a large bed with a dark purple comforter and black sheets. I also wasn’t alone in the room.The person sitting on the edge of the bed was looking at his phone and not me, so I tried not to move. I didn’t recognize the man, so I didn’t want to make sudden movements until I knew the situation. I was oddly familiar with the man and the room but couldn’t remember anything.“Good, you are awake.” A voice I didn’t recognize spoke as someone I didn’t recognize walked to the side of the bed where the man was sitting.“How are you feeling?” The man, who had been preoccupied with his phone, quickly turned on the bed to look at me.Without a word, I slowly sat up and flinched when the man tried to help me. He took his hand back, but the look in his eyes was filled with pain. Sitting on the bed, I rested my back on the headboard and continued looking

    Zydan-Rolling to my side, I avoid Shaw’s attack, but it takes a moment for me to get onto my feet. My ears rang from the hit he delivered when I put myself between him and Lia. Once I was on my feet, I prepared myself for another attack.A sudden burst of energy erupted around me, and it took me a moment to understand that it was Lia’s wolf. Since I was between her and Shaw, I witnessed the moment Shaw was hit with a small lightning bolt. It zapped him but didn’t seem to do any harm.When Shaw’s attention moved past me, I realized she had only used enough of a shock to get his attention. Turning my attention to Lia, I witnessed her transformation into a black wolf with the most captivating violet eyes I have ever seen. It wasn’t until now that I realized this was the first time I had seen her wolf.More than that, Lia’s wolf, Akira, had purple streaks of lightning swarming her as if caressing the fur on her body. The power that rolled off her was nearly ten times more intense than in

    Accalia-Staring at the computer in a trance, I couldn’t believe my eyes. It has been two weeks since I sent Arielle and the other test subjects out. I thought it would take more time to determine the results from the final phase, but the indicators on the screen didn’t lie.The full moon was three days ago, and every test subject had maintained excellent results. I could have ended the final testing a week ago, but I put it off until after the full moon. I wanted to be sure there weren’t any issues. For the first time since I began the project, I felt as if a lot of pressure lifted from my shoulders.“Is something wrong?” Emily’s voice pulled me from my trance.“We did it.” I mumbled without taking my eyes off the computer screen.“Seriously?” Emily asked and then shoved me to the side so she could look at the computer. “I don’t understand this stuff, but the indicators are the best I have seen.”“We did it.” I repeated as if I needed more confirmation.Suddenly, I jumped out of my ch

    Zydan-Upon returning to the lab, I watched helplessly as Lia became busy again. It wasn’t like before. This time, it was as if she needed to keep herself busy in order to survive. Every time I tried to approach her, she would move on to her next task.When the volunteers Darnell sent to us arrived, it took away more of her freedom. I tried to help her, but there wasn’t much for me to do. Everyone was working hard to speed up the research results. Over the course of three weeks, we went from only having Arielle as a volunteer to having twenty more.We tried to see if the results from Arielle’s implant would be the same without the full moon. After the second volunteer was implanted and was able to shift and have the same results as Arielle, they continued implanting more volunteers. I couldn’t begin to understand what was going on with Lia or why she was pushing herself too hard, but I knew I couldn’t do much to help.I had a feeling it had much to do with the pressure she was under a

    Accalia-“Forgive me! I didn’t know.” The man who had greeted us when we arrived said.Shaking my head, I smiled and turned to face him. “It has been a while since I have been here, and although my identity is no longer a secret, not everyone knows who I am.”“I still should have sensed you.” The man kept his attention on his feet, with his head bowed.“I was severely injured recently, so my wolf is resting.” I stepped forward and placed my hand on his shoulder. “Seriously, it is no big deal.” I dropped my hand when he lifted his head.“Well, now that you are here, I will report the most recent developments. I assume you were at the Kenyon residence?” He asked, and I nodded in response.“The members who went after the attackers just reported back.” The man continued as I turned to open the office door so that we could discuss things in private.He stopped talking long enough to sit on a chair across from my desk. Instead of sitting, I leaned against the desk, resting my hip on the edg

    Zydan-When the fire finally started disappearing, I was overjoyed. No longer feeling the need to keep spraying the house, I rushed forward to help Lia. The fire wasn’t completely out, but the majority of it was, other than a few small areas. The biggest issue now is the smoke.As I ran toward the house, I saw a group of people gathered, anxiously looking at the house. It looked like they were all inside the fire, meaning Lia had helped them escape. Looking around, I hoped to see Lia, but she wasn’t in the crowd.“Where is Lia?” I asked the couple huddled together, leaning on each other for support.“She went inside to save my son!” The man said, who I recognized as Darrion Kenyon’s father.“She is still inside?” My eyes quickly moved to the house, and fear plunged into me, nearly suffocating me.Even if the fire wasn’t as bad, it was still dangerous. With how many she had already saved, I assumed her wolf was reaching its limits. I tried to sense her, but the signal was weak. Without

    Accalia-“What is going on?” I asked as I glanced at Zydan.“I don’t have time to explain, but we need your help. We are under attack!” Darrion yelled, and not even a second later, I heard a crash, followed by the call being disconnected.I rushed into the lab and quickly informed Emily that I needed to leave. “What is wrong?” She asked.“I don’t know, but I believe the Kenyon family is under attack. Darrion called me, and it sounds urgent. Due to their distance, I have no choice but to go myself. Can you handle things until I return?”“Don’t worry about things here. I will take care of them. We have more than enough staff.”“Thank you!” I turned away from her to talk to the tech team and saw Jason.Although he wasn’t always in the lab, he was the one person I knew who could handle things on a technical level until I returned. I barely took two steps before he yelled out to me.“Don’t worry, I got it from here. You take care of whatever you need to.”Nodding my head, I turned to leave

    Accalia-“Arielle told me what happened with everyone after I fell asleep.” I twisted in my seat to look at Zydan.“I admit that I have let my thoughts run wild. There are times I feel as if I am not worthy of you. I feel I haven’t contributed enough when I see how hard you work. If I had done more, you wouldn’t be working yourself so hard.” His focus remained on the road as he spoke.“You know, I couldn’t do half of the things I can do if it weren’t for you and everyone around me.” I smiled as I took his free hand in mine.“You are the future Queen, the leader of the Renegades, and in charge of a project that can change the world.”“My identity doesn’t define me. I might be the future Queen, but that has much to do with who my parents are. It isn’t like I came from nothing and worked my way up to that point. As far as being the leader of the Renegades, you have a huge part to play in that.”“What do you mean?” Zydan glanced in my direction briefly before focusing on the road.“When I
