As the private jet touched down, the anticipation in the air grew palpable, settling into the pit of my stomach like a heavyweight. The jet engines hummed their final lullaby, signaling the end of our journey and the beginning of an unknown chapter."Did you sleep well?" Lucas inquired, a gentle smile playing on his lips as I rubbed away the remnants of sleep from my eyes."Surprisingly, yes," I replied, taking in my surroundings. "Did I really sleep through the rest of the flight?""You did. I figured you needed the rest, so I let you be. You looked too peaceful to disturb." He bent down, planting a soft kiss on my lips.Anxiously, my gaze darted around to locate Kendrick, only to find him sitting across from us, seemingly engrossed in his own thoughts."PDA in front of your dad?" I teased with skepticism. "Are you trying to provoke him?""I don't care. You're my girlfriend, and for the next four days, I won't be able to kiss or touch you whenever I want." He bent down for another ki

Lucas suggested I try to go to sleep again, but the turbulence from my nightmare lingered. I was still unsettled, and I refused to return to whatever dream I had just escaped from.Instead, I decided to distract myself by staring out the small window, allowing the scenery around me to take my mind off of things.The plane had lowered in the sky, and now instead of clouds, I was able to see a breathtaking scene. There was a large expanse of water surrounded by lush greenery and majestic mountains covered in thick, dense forests.Some parts of it reminded me of the place Lucas and I called home, but I knew we were much farther away than that.The sight left me in awe and strangely comforted me, allowing me to relax.However, every so often, my thoughts would remind me that our arrival was near and that the peace wouldn't last."We'll be landing soon," Kendrick said across from Lucas and I. There was a coffee mug in his hand that had probably gone cold by now. "Once we land, I've been in

The elegance of the castle's main foyer left me utterly breathless.Towering columns adorned with intricate carvings framed the entrance, and a sparkling chandelier hung from the ceiling, casting a cascade of light across the polished marble floor.The air carried a subtle scent of history and magic, a heady mix that heightened the surreal experience.Behind me, I heard the footfalls of Lucas, Kendrick, and all of Kendrick's guards. When I turned to see all of their reactions to the castle, they looked around in awe.Lucas's eyes met mine, the light from the chandelier made his eyes appear even more blue."Crazy," he mouthed to me and I didn't know what else to say, so I nodded back."Yes, it's quite impressive," Liam drawled in a proud tone. "The Etheral Palace has stood for centuries, a testament to the enduring legacy of our realm.""It's magnificent," Kendrick noted, no lie hidden behind his words."The king has tried to make this place feel otherworldly, but also warm and comfort

The anticipation in the room was palpable, and the mention of the King joining us for dinner soon heightened my apprehension. I fidgeted with the fabric of my dress, trying to shake off the nerves."Liam, why aren't you joining us for dinner?" Kendrick inquired as Liam lingered by the door."I have matters to attend to, sir," Liam replied with a slight bow. "The King has requested my presence. I am certain that Prince Alexander will be here shortly to accompany you."What? I wondered to myself. Prince Alexander?With that, Liam exited, leaving us in the vast dining hall.The doors were guarded by stern-faced knights, their presence a reminder that this was not an ordinary dinner engagement. We were completely out of our element.Just outside, Kendrick's security team stood ready to protect us if need be.With Liam's absence, the three of us were locked in a room full of exquisite decor that exuded an air of magnificence. I couldn't help but feel like an outsider sitting in a world of

I knew that I should've felt intimidated by Prince Alexander, but something about him made me feel at ease. His casual charm and youthfulness surprised me.He was the complete opposite of what I thought the heir to the Alpha King throne would be like. His laughter and easygoing demeanor strangely reminded me of James. Sure, the two of them had many differences, but the way they carried themselves was the same.Lucas hadn't been able to stop sending daggers at Prince Alexander all throughout dinner, although, it didn't seem like the prince even noticed. He was too busy keeping all of his attention on me."So, Shana, tell me who you've brought here with you," Prince Alexander asks while only looking at me. I find it a bit rude that he won't even acknowledge the other guests."I'm Lucas, Shana's boyfriend and closest friend," Lucas cuts in, his tone sharp and cold. I almost flinch.Prince Alexander turns his head toward Lucas and gives him a lazy smile. "Is that why I can feel you burnin
