NOAH The moon shone bright, casting it's warm light onto the book spread open on my desk. At the top right corner, something I scribbled, shone making it look like it was glittering. A chuckle slid past my lips, one particular memory tugging at the corner of my mind. It was also a full moon like tonight,but many years ago. "Dad. Dad. Dad." I called, trudging down the hallway. My tiny feet shuffled along the tiled ground, the cold seeping into my skin through my barefoot. Mother always warned me not to roam the halls without my shoes but I was in too much of a hurry. " Father. Father. Father." I had no idea where he was. I'd roamed around his room but he wasn't there. I checked the throne too and he wasn't in any fancy meetings this time. So he had one more place to hide. The noises from behind the door confirmed my thoughts. Mum and dad had always said the room was soundproof but the tiny whispers seeping through the cracks and holes in the door told me otherwise, the door n

NOAH The night was bright, sparkling gems twinkling right above us. The wind was cold, a slight chill creeping up my skin. The night was cold but at the same time, it wasn't. The scene in front of the palace wasn't what I was expecting. I knew the news had traveled and everyone had been anticipating it but I didn't expect the turn out to be this massive.People gathered everywhere I looked, either in clusters or were enjoying the ceremony solo. One thing was certain, they were all waiting for the ceremony to begin in earnest."Now, this is a party huh?" Ethan whistled beside me. My head whipped in his direction and I could see the shock clearly written all over his face." I think everyone Came, from far and wide too. ""We'll just have to see about that, won't we." I smirked and clapped gently. Two guards bounded up to me, their golden chest plates glistening gently in the moonlight. Prior to this event, I'd ordered them a new set of armor be made for all the guards and that the maid

I didn't look back. I couldn't, I couldn't afford to. Immediately I stepped through that door, my feet started pounding on the hard ground, the sound of my feet kissing the floor my only motivation. The room was dark until I burst into another hallway. At the end of the hall were two other doors. Whilst approaching the door, I slowed down, reducing my noise level to zero. Flamed torches lit the narrow hallway, each one a good amount of distance between the other.The walls were a dull gray. To be honest, they didn't look painted at all. Its surface was rough and if you scratched hard, broken pieces of sand would fall off, but that didn't matter. What mattered was the fact that I recognized this place .Had I been here before? I couldn't tell. So why did this place look so familiar? Then it clicked. A lightbulb lit up in my head and I almost clapped out loud. This was the same path I took when I was leaving the dungeons. I was at the end of the hallway now, with both doors by my sides

NOAH "And send out troops to find her." I barked again causing all guards around to break off into different directions. " One more thing, until Bailey is found, her family will be held captive.""What are you saying?" Diana shrieked,finally coming out of her trance. " Why would you do that?""Because they deserve it!" I yelled back. " Bailey has been taking advantage of my leniency towards her. I'm not a fool so I refuse to let this go on.""Sire." Elder Franklin called. I guess he and the other elders had arrived amisdt the chaos. " Don't you think this is a little too much, your highness?""Be quiet!" My voice roared, causing them to shiver. " This is only the barest minimum. If it were up to me, I'd chop them up, alive."Someone gasped and I knew it was Mrs Gayle. As if understanding the weight of my words, Lisa shuffled to her mother, her tiny hands wrapping around her mother's legs."Noah, rethink this." Diana was practically begging. " This isn't rational. You aren't thinking

"That's not important. But if you should know, you're back here with me." I didn't need any divination to tell me who that was and the very realization sent chills down my spine.Noah strode into the room, an irritating smile on his lips. I didn't remember much from last night, but he'd lost the suit jacket and tie too. Instead, he was in a black shirt with two buttons undone. His pants were still on and I had no idea why I was describing his dress sense to be honest."What are you doing here?" I seethed clenching my teeth. Something shot up in my head and I winced, the pain spreading through my head. " What do you want?""Not a lot." Noah replied nonchalantly. He gave the elderly woman a nod, as if he was just acknowledging her. " Madame Alexis….""I almost thought you'd lost your manners." She cut him off, brandishing a needle in her grip. He stepped back a bit, but not without giving a small chuckle. "You can be out of your mind sometimes you know?""Not necessarily but I'd like to

NOAH "Hurry up, why don't you?" I called after my best friend who was slowly lagging behind. This was the third time I had to hang back to call to him and wait till he caught up with me. " Why are you so slow?""I think the question should be.." Ethan was panting. I could clearly hear his wolf begging for some rest. "..Why are you so fast?""Aren't you a werewolf?" Ethan was still a good distance from where I was. "So what's your yapping about?""It's not my fault I'm not used to running and the likes." Ethan finally caught up me. His chest was heaving and he had to bend his hands on his knees, just so he could catch his breath.Pathetic. I murmured underneath."And I'm the one who likes running around then?" I gave him a half glare."Of course." Ethan stood straight, looking a bit better than he was five minutes ago. His hair was wet and hid body was slick with sweat but aside that, he was good to go. " You're always running away from one problem or the other. You do have to keep fi

I hated this injury. In the past few days its succeeded in making my life miserable. Even more miserable than Noah and that was saying something. I'd been bedridden for days and was constantly slipping in and out of consciousness. Some days I'd wake up with a throbbing head, other days, I'd wake up with a swollen leg. It was always one thing or the other and honestly I was getting tired of it.If a wolf scratch was like this, what it would be like if they had bitten me instead?"It would be worse, your highness." The voice beside me brought me back to reality. "Way more worse.""I'm sorry, did I say that out loud?" I turned to the guard escorting me. We were in the hallway that winded down to the throne room. " I didn't mean to. I was just thinking to myself.""Don't embarrass me your majesty." He gave a polite smile." I'd have said it either way, maybe it would ease your pain a little.""Thank you." I leaned on my cane and pressed my body forward, putting one foot in front of the oth

"Get out.""What?" Mum blinked twice, clearly taken aback. " What did you say? I'm not sure I heard you….""Get. Out." I pronounced each word as slowly as I could, none of them missing the anger I'd injected into them. She wasn't expecting it because the incredulous look on her face wasn't one I'd be forgetting anytime soon."Bailey?" She called out to me, unsure. She knew she'd struck a chord and right now she was dangling on life support. " You don't really mean that do you?""I do." I grit my teeth. "If you're just going to be on about how Noah is this and that maybe you should leave. You can come back when he's around. He should be back in a couple of days time. ""Bailey dear." Dad's voice was as soft as the pillows in my room. " Calm down, I'm sure you don't mean it.""I do, dad." I turned to him, but my words were pointed at my mum. " I want a mother not someone who's obsessed with being royalty.""Don't speak about me in that tone young lady!" Mum spat, her face twisting into

"It All started when his mother left." That definitely piqued my interest. "Noah's home wasn't exactly perfect, nor was it peaceful."Pfft." I scoffed. That didn't justify anything. " I don't know if you overheard me and my mum, but I don't think that's a valid excuse.""It's not." A solemn expression fell on Ethan's face. He stared ahead, like he was gazing at something only he could see. " If you knew his parents you'd understand what I mean.""And you do?" I didn't know when it slipped out. If it wasn't so laced with sarcasm, I wouldn't have been bothered. But it was, and Ethan picked up on it too. " I'm sorry, it's just..""I get it." He cut me off, gently. " Everyone thinks he's such a monster, no one wants to see things from his point of view. It's sad honestly, but I was there with him and I understand him..I'm not saying he's right but it's not entirely his fault.""That's going to take me a long time to believe." I whistled and Ethan let out a small laugh. " He'll have to…."

I woke up startled, air rushing up my lungs. My chest was tight and breathing oxygen in and out felt like a chore. My eyes flew open but everywhere was shrouded in darkness. It took me a while to realize a sack was actually over my head, shielding my face from the rest of the world. My gag was no longer on, so that was some sort of relief."Hey!" I yelled to no one in particular, the sack moving along with my head. "Hey! Is anyone there?"I tried to move my hands and realized I was tied to a chair, a metal one at that, cold seeping into my skin. Another quick survey showed my legs were also bound to the metal chair and I muffled a scream, frustration coursing through my veins.Where the hell was I? I wondered. A dull ache pulsed at the back of my head and I winced, unable to touch it. Then it all came rushing back. The muffles at the front of my door, the two guys and poof, me falling unconscious. That didn't explain how I got here though. I hadn't a faintest clue where here was."Hel
