Aurora stormed into her room in shock, her heart racing with adrenaline. She quickly shut the door behind her and locked it, taking deep breaths to calm herself down. Her hands were shaking as she reached up to remove the metal wheel that she had used to veil her face. The wheel had been a desperate measure, but it had worked, allowing her to blend in with the other maids and sneak into the Queen's Chambers undetected.As she pulled off the wheel, her long golden hair tumbled down around her shoulders. She quickly shed the maid's clothing she had been wearing, tossing them into a corner of the room. She needed to rid herself of any evidence that might lead back to her.Aurora sat on her bed, her mind racing as she tried to process everything she had just seen. The image of the queen and princess locked in cages was burned into her mind, and she couldn't shake the feeling of shock and horror that filled her. She had always known that something was off about the Royal Arena, but she ha

The time finally came wgen Aurora and Derek had to visit Aurora's hometown in her pack per the customs— she had to visit her hometown with her mate and they had to spend a few days with her family, meaning she'd not be returning as a spinster. They journeyed with a few companions with them, who were there to ensure their safety and provide any necessary assistance during the journey. The journey from the Royal Arena to the Blood Moon Pack was long and would take a few days to complete. As they began their journey, they travelled on horseback, riding their trusted steeds through the winding paths and scenic routes of the land. Aurora rode on a magnificent white mare, while Derek rode on a strong black stallion. They rode side by side, their horses' hooves clattering on the dirt road. The scenery around them was breathtaking. Rolling hills and vast meadows stretched out as far as the eye could see, dotted with the occasional farmhouse or small village.Their companions travelled in c

The morning air was crisp and cool, with a slight breeze blowing through the trees. The sun was just starting to peek over the horizon, casting long shadows across the grassy plains they rode through. The sound of hooves hitting the ground echoed through the stillness, punctuated by the occasional chirp of a bird or rustle of leaves.Magnus and Derek rode on their horses, flanked by two of Magnus' men. The air was crisp and cool, and the only sounds were the clopping of the horses' hooves and the rustle of the wind in the trees. Derek felt tense and uneasy, knowing that Magnus was not only his potential future father-in-law but also his enemy's enemy.They rode in silence for what seemed like an eternity, neither man willing to break the ice. Derek could feel Magnus' eyes on him, scrutinizing him. He shifted uncomfortably in his saddle, trying to shake off the feeling of being watched.Finally, Magnus spoke up. "So, Derek, how long have you known my daughter?"Derek cleared his throat

Derek walked quickly and carefully through the woods, his footsteps silent on the soft earth. The moon was high in the sky, casting a dim light through the trees. He had a veil over his face, concealing his features and making him harder to recognize if anyone saw him. He had to be careful, he knew that if he was caught, he could be in serious trouble. But he had a mission to accomplish, and he was determined to see it through.As he moved through the woods, Derek kept his eyes and ears open for any sign of danger. He had been in the woods before, and he knew that there were all sorts of creatures lurking in the shadows. But he had no time to be afraid. He had to focus on his mission, and that meant keeping his wits about him.Finally, he reached a clearing, and he could see the buildings in the distance. He quickened his pace, knowing that time was of the essence. He had to find what he was looking for quickly, before anyone noticed that he was there.As he approached the buildings,

Osei's home was a modest single-story structure made of mud and straw, with a thatched roof that sloped steeply to the ground. The exterior walls of the building were covered in a thick layer of mud and had a somewhat lumpy texture, indicating that it was an old and well-used structure. The front of the building faced the road, and there was a small garden patch that stretched out from the front door, filled with medicinal herbs and plants.There were a few windows on the outside of the building, but they were small and did not let in much light, making the interior of the home dark and shadowy. There was a single wooden door at the front of the building, which was sturdy and had an iron handle, giving the impression of strength and security.The roof of the building was supported by sturdy wooden beams, which were visible from the outside. They gave the impression that the building was well-constructed and could withstand the harsh weather conditions of the area.There were also a fe
