All Chapters of She Was The Queen: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I wish I were somebody else. If I were Falcon, I wouldn't have to be related to myself or anyone in this family. If I were Jacob, I would be strong and healthy. If I were my sister, I would live a carefree life. If I was just anybody else but me life would be better. It seems that Roman is the only highlight of my life, other than that, it's just darkness.I woke up in a bad episode last night but it was better than the others. It was shorter than any of my recent ones but I stayed away from anyone, afraid it would return just as quickly.I was miles away from home, perhaps even in River Cresent territory but I could still feel Roman. She was alive and breathing but most likely upset at my absence. What a disappointment I'd been all weekend, I couldn't even greet anyone when they came back.Her eyes flashed in my mind in the darkness of the night, opening wide, snapping me awake in the storm. I woke up to the crackle of thunder and rain beating down on my skin. The tree I was under wo

He came quickly to my side and knelt. He took my hand in his and placed it on his face. Tears streamed down his face, his eyelashes glittered with droplets. This was Khai, in his purest form, in his vulnerable state. This was what I was waiting for, uncovering this layer of him but I didn't want it to happen this way.Tears threatened my eyes like they were being burnt by his fumes, the opening of his layer."Your death would send me into a spiral I cannot even imagine," he said.I caressed his face, smooth and without scar or blemish. He was so beautiful and perfect, like fine china."I missed you,” he said into my neck before he placed a kiss.His breath made my knees weaker than they already were."I missed you so damn much," he purred with a voice getting deeper.He began sucking on my neck. It was deliciously painful and the pain in my body became background noise as he kissed my neck and lips. His lips travelled up to my jawline where he reached higher to bite my earlobe."Khai.

I asked if we could sit outside in the sun, maybe I'd feel better. Khai rolled out a mat and poured me a glass of orange juice. He carried me outside and laid me on the carpet and he laid right beside me.His face rested in his palms and he brushed a lock of my hair behind my ear. He moved closer and kissed my forehead. We were in the middle of the garden where anyone interested could see us."Every moment you were asleep I felt helpless. If you didn't come for me...""Then you would have been shot," I said."Is that what you want?" I asked him."In this circumstance, yes. I'd rather be the one in pain. Not you.""This pack needs you. I don't regret taking that shot for you."Khai shook his head. "It was a human who shot you. When I tried to go after him his scent had suddenly disappeared. That doesn't happen. A scent doesn't disappear just like that, especially a human's because they don't run that fast.""What was he doing in

I headed for the bathroom, locked the door and washed my face at the sink. My face was heating up, I wanted to cry. I felt like a failure. I was killing her. I couldn't save her. I couldn't find her perpetrator and make him beg her for forgiveness. I couldn't make her feel like the queen she was. What kind of alpha fails his luna? And what could I do? What could I do to save her? Wait for Walter to figure it out?All I could think of was finding the stupid human who did this. But every time I did that it took me away from her. Those days when she was unconscious I would go out, run for miles looking for him but every second I was away, I felt horrible for not spending it with her.But what if that idiot could help me? I'd have to beg a species below me for salvation. My pride was a huge lump in my throat but for her, I would swallow it. I wouldn't lose the only completion I had in my life.I had such a huge hole in my heart ever since my father's death and havin

As we ran home, I couldn’t help the sickly feeling in my stomach. It could’ve been Roman and our connection – I only felt a fraction of what she truly felt but this was my emotion. My feelings. Intiyago was nothing but odd. Nothing about his behaviour made any sense to me.When they first came to our house, chasing Roman, that was the only time I understood him. He had hoped to confuse me by saying he was leaving in the name of love but the truth was that they were outnumbered and any smart alpha knows when to quit. But everything else from then made no sense.Apart from killing our watch wolves, he made no sense. Killing our watch wolves meant that he was trying to reduce our numbers. If the Azraels weren’t so good at concealing their scent we would’ve found them a long time ago but all our searching had been in vain. We only saw Intiyago when he wanted us to see him like that time we saw him in Roman’s home. Just standing there. He was difficult to read. What was the purpose of just
