I rushed into the room and knelt down beside the cold body of my mother. I placed my index abd middle finger on her neck, trying to see if there was a pulse but came up with none. I sniffle, my eyes blurry with unshard tears but as I blinked they fell running down my cheeks and falling on my mothers hair.
Gently, I removed her head from my lap and lay it on the floor. I searched the room in case my son was hiding somewhere but came up with nothing.
My heart beat excitedly with the thoughts that they might have escaped through the portal but when I faced the dark mirror, I put my hand on the glass and gasped when it went through it.
They never escaped, if they did the portal would have closed back and a that would be left will be a solid glass.
Glancing at mom on last time I left the room in search of my son. Elijah was right. If I had know I would not have left them alone.
I try not to dwe
"Ah, his Majesty has finally decided to join us" Derrick said jeeringly with a dramatic bow.Elijah growled with some of his soldiers as they stood at him back."Tell them to back off" Derrick growled at Elijah's men while I struggle against the hold that Cedric had on me.Elijah glance at everyone in the room before his eyes zoomed in on the hand of Derrick that was wrapped around our sons neck."Leave" Elijah muttered lowly. The guards looked at themselves unsure if he meant it. "Now!" He growls at them, clenching and unclenching his fist and with hesitation, they left.Now it was just Elijah, Me, Cedric, Mlika and Derrick. The rogue King sent Josephine and her son out, I'm sure he did it so she would find Elijah and not long after she left, Elijah came."What do you want Derrick" Elijah growled, his eyes kept on zooming on our crying son. Micah already has marks on his arms and neck from where Derrick held him."What do I want?" De
Five Months Later."What are you doing here all alone" My husband said wrapping his strong arms around my waist and placing a kissing my mark."Just thinking" I muttered leaning my head to the side granting him access as his lips connected with my jaw.It's been a whole five months after the war and we've been trying to get things back to normal.I had a mental breakdown for three months after the whole thing. Almost losing my son, losing my mother and losing my pregnancy makes me tense up thinking that someone was going to attack us.After my son was saved and came back to life, Hilda saw her daughter laying at the bottom of the stairs with a dagger sticking out of her heart. In range she almost attacked us if not for some guards who stopped her. I have no idea what happened to her and when ever I asked Elijah, he would brush it off until I finally dropped the matter.
I am sitting in the library with my bestfriend, Anna, and a few of our Course-mates as we reverse on some topics for the last exam of the semester. I was silent, not altering a word for my mind was occupied with the dream I had last night-I wouldn't exactly call it a dream, more like a memory mocking me. The words that broke my heart into a million pecies still fresh and replaying itself like a broken record in my head."You're a psycho Celeste, i can't be mated to you. You're fat and disgusting. You are not fit for a luna.""Andrew, wh-what are you sa-saying?" I asked my mate, my voice craking and tears streaming from my eyes. I know what was to come, he was going to reject me. The disgust and hatred he held for me clearly showing in his eyes."I, Andrew Walter, soon to be alpha of crestfall pack reject you Celeste Sampson as my mate and future luna to the crestfal
After three and a half hours I arrived at Kansas. I texted mom that I was already in the state before boarding a Taxi to Crestfall privately owned land which is farther away from the city and the human eyes. The ride took about fourty minutes before we arrived at a small apartment where a few patrol guards stay when guest are coming into the pack land.I came out of the car with my luggage and thanked the driver for the ride. I walked closer to the apartment but stayed a few feet from it already knowing that they would be out soon since they could sense my arrival. I looked at my chest to see a red dot there and rolled my eyes with a scoff. What harm can an average Lycan do to one of the biggest pack in USA?The door opened revealing Beta Ivan and a two other guards."Beta" I said in greeting with a flat tone"Celeste" he replied with a smirk playing on his lips as he came down the
It is now seven pm and I am doing my make-up. I put on a little amount of foundation on my face followed by some powder. I smoke out my eye and give it a winged line. I add some nude lipstick and a light blush on my cheeks. I do my hair in a formal messy braided updo. After doing my make up and hair, I picked up the bag that had my dress and slide it on I then pair it with the golden heels.I stand at the mirror hanging on my closet door and couldn't help but agree with what Josephine said at the mall today, I do look like a queen. I take my black purse laying on my bed and with my head high I go downstairs to me the rest of my family.Mom was the first to see me as I entered the living room. "You look beautiful darling" she says and everyone turns around to look at me."Thanks, mom" I mumbled suddenly shy with all eyes looking at me.Everyone tells me how beautiful I look and I thanked them and also tell
Elijah places his big hand on the small of my back then nod the the guards. The door opens and we walk in, everyone stops what they are doing and I freeze from all the stares. Elijah nodges me forward with him and we walk. Everyone parts way for us like the red sea, bowing down for their king in the process. You could tell that they were hesitant to bow because I am with him. Why would Alphas of grate packs bow to me, a nobody?I see some glaring at me while others are surprise to see their King. There are a few mummers going around but I can hear them."It's him!""Who's she?""He's hot"We walk around as Elijah greets the Alphas, some alphas went straight into business mode, asking for permission to expand their pack land and other business matters which I had no interest in. I still can't believe that the king wants me. What would this become of me? I knew fro
"Where are we going?" I asked Elijah as he takes a hold of my hand, leading me through the park. He said nothing and I roll my eyes but keep shut but after a few minutes I decide to ask him one more question. "How did you get here? And how did you know where I'd be?""I'm the king darling, I can find you whenever I want," Elijah comments, pushing his brow locks from his face. "And were going to the palace""What?!" I wispher-yelled into the dark night."I will not repeat myself" he mumbled not sparing me a glance.I scoff but let him drag Me with him. I spot a black Lamborghini that looks brand new at the road side. He opens the door for me and I get in while he also hopes in the driver's seat, turning on the car right away speeding out as he drives like a mad man.I hold on the seatbelt for dear life and my eyes open as he continues speeding around the fairly traffic."Fo
I wake up with the lights shinning on my face. I walk to the window and look out to the beautiful view out side my window. There is a nock on my door and I walk to it and open it. There, stands a maid with her head bowed."Good morning Lady Celeste, the king has requested you join him for breakfast in the dinning room" the female said. Before I can answers she hurryliy walk away and I shrug. I close the door and go into the bathroom taking a quick shower, I take out a new toothbrush from its case and brush my teeth with it. I decide to put on the clothes I wore since there is no extra.Walking through the beautiful walls of the palace, I ask a guard the way to the dinning room and he show me the way which I thank him for. The King seated at the head of the table, looks up as I enter the room with a smile."Celeste," he said my name in a whisper. "Please sit and have breakfast with me."I nod and sit next t
