Micah soon left after I kept silent when he said those words. I took a towel from the bathroom drying up my body before entering the room. I wondered what I would wear and surely, I couldn't put on my dirty clothes that had the stains of my mothers blood on it. I was grateful to see some clothes laying neatly on the bed and quickly put on the blue shirt.
I had the trouser half way through my ass when the door was pushed open making me snap my head towards the intruder. The same girl from earlier came in with a tray of food in her hands and when she looked up, she noticed me struggling to fit my ass in the pants and quickly look at her feet with a blush coating her cheeks and neck.
"Come in" I mumbled sarcastically and with a huff I zipped up the zipper at the front of the pant.
"Sorry" Fallon murmured in a whisper as she shift on her right hips.
I looked over to the tray that was sitting on the coffee table and picked up the warm bread and shove it in my mouth.
I never knew I was this hungry until I took another bite humming to myself. I cast a glance at Fallon who stood with her back hunched staring at a stain on the floor.
"Would you like some?" I asked her with a piece of bread stretched towards her. She looked at the food in my hand before swallowing down saliva.
"I shouldn't" She whispered tucking her brown hair behind her ear.
"Well, I insist" I urged while sitting on the bed comfortably.
She cast a glance at the door having an initial battle with herself and with a sigh and hesitation she took the bread from my hand and ate the food in a rush.
"Have some more" I motioned to the food which consisted of about eleven pieces of bread, a glass of milk and water and some scrambled eggs.
She moved timidly and sat on the floor and I frowned at that. "You can sit on the bed" I mumbled and she blushed.
"Alpha King wouldn't want my scent on his bed"
I shrugged as well both continue eating. We talked as we ate and I learned that she has been working in the castle since she was ten and we were both the same age. She has a younger brother of eighteen who works in the farm and both her parents were dead.
I was happy that she was comfortable enough to open up to me and I felt like we would become good friends.
"So where are we going?" I asked Fallon as we exit the room.
"The King has commanded I show you around the castle" She mumbled flattening her hand on her orange colored gown.
I hummed as she showed me around. I wasn't really interested at the things she points out. I have been in a castle literally half of my life although the castle here is far bigger and fantasy like than the one in the ruins I do not see a difference because everything are just long damn halls.
Something caught my eyes though and I cut off Fallons mumbling my grasping her arm making her halt.
"Who are they?" I asked pointing at the large frame hanging on the wall for all to see when they pass by.
"Their Majesty King Elijah and Queen Celeste" She muttered pointing at their names that were written ot the bottom of their pictures.
I had seen a picture quite similar to this but couldn't make out their faces because they've faded over time.
I've heard stories about them. How they ruled only their people and hid from the prying eyes of humans before a war broke out revealing the beasts they are.
Although they never never took over the world, their son did making half of the world submit to him.
"We should go" Fallon said after a while of staring at their pictures.
I noticed how a few maids were rushing with dishes and decorating materials.
"Is there a party?" I asked turning my head sideways to glance at the blue eye female beside me.
She blinked at me slowly before muttering a "No"
"Oh" I whispered dryly.
My curiosity got the best of me when two men carried two silver cups and wine. "The witches and the beasts are about to sign a treaty and become allies once again" She said with one brow perfectly crocked up at me.
"I thought they did that a long time ago" I mumbled more to myself but it seems Fallon thought I was talking to her.
She laughed like I was crazy, wiping the tears that had gathered in her eyes while I gave her a dry look.
"Do you live under a rock?" She asked before slapping her hands over her mouth and looked around in case someone heard her. "Sorry"
"No it's okay" I told her waving my hand and giving her a grin. Her shoulders relaxed and we continued walking.
"The war never ended. The beasts and witches were at war since the Alpha kings' father betrayed them but hopefully, it ends today" She sighed.
In silence we walked but stopped when someone called Fallon's name. We both turned around to see who it was.
From the height and elegant clothing the female was putting on, I knew she was one of the wolves.
Fallon lowered her head when the woman approached us in fright. "I asked of you two hours ago when have you been?" She sneered spit flying out of her mouth.
"S-sorry Madam Cleona, the King commanded I s-show his mate around" She stammered gesturing to me with her hand. Cleona's eyes moved towards me and she rolled them before they snap back to Fallon.
"I don't care, now come, I need you to bath me" And with that she turned around swaying her hips as she walked.
"Sorry madam Lovette, I have to go" She muttered with her eyes casted down and I frowned at that.
"Fallon!!!" Cleona yelled making us whine at how loud her voice was.
"It's okay," I said giving her a small smile even though she couldn't see it.
She ran catching up with the woman while I was left alone. I continued on with walking around and noticed how dark it has gotten outside.
"Fuck" I cussed under my breath and turned around trying to find my way back to the Kings chamber.
It seems like I was walking down the wrong hall but continued when I heard laughter. There was no one in sight and the only noise around me was from that of my shoe that hits on tie ground and the voices of men and women laughing and talking.
The door before me was quite huge and through the cracks a yellow light was shining from the light in the room.
I peeped through one of the holes and saw a bunch of people feasting. I looked at each faces in the room but stopped when I noticed a man producing a dagger out of his bag.
He held hatred in his eyes as he glared at the king and right before my eyes as Micah drank from his cup, the dagger went straight to his chest.
The man who threw the dagger jump on the table and pushed the door open. "Catch him!" Someone yelled as I stumbled back, falling flat on my butt.I crawled to the wall side so as to not me stepped on as the beasts chased after the man.I took in deep breaths, calming my racing heart before getting up while using the wall to support my weight. The door was wide open as I stood at the middle searching for the King.Is he dead? I asked myself and my heart clenched at the thought but I shook it out. The king is immortal. Lived for more than 700 years.His people surrounded him as I took cautious steps. His glowing golden eyes snapped to my figure making me stop.His men (and women) surrounding him all shifted to the sides giving me the view of the dagger that was stuck in the middle of his chest.I gasped in horror and stumbled forward with my hands over my mouth."Are you OK?" I asked placing my hands on his shoulder. He gave me a look and even i knew that it was a dumb question.Obviou
It took two days before Micah finally woke up. I never once left his side while he slept through the days.Today was the third day and the King was holding a meeting with the council members and other ranking members.Micah had asked me earlier this morning to accompany him to the days meeting and I agreed.We both walked into the big ass counsel room and everyone kept silent as the king strolled him. If one is to look closely, you would notice the limp when he walks.He sat on his chair and I was confused, where would I sit? There was no chair next to him and all thr other chairs has been occupied.Micah also noticed that there were no empty seats so he pulled me by my waist and I landed on his lap.I gasped in surprise and other cleared their throat pretending to not have noticed what just happened. I tried getting up but Micah wasn't having it. He's wounded and I do not need to add to his pain.I sighed after trying a couple of times and rested my back to his chest. I jerked forwar
Later that evening, Davina came to i and Micah's room and then applied some strange substance on his chest and also gave him some portion to take and apply on his chest for his journey.We're currently standing outside the castle. Micah's hand was holding mine as well watched his men gather around. When they were completed, he faced me and pressed a kiss on my head."I'll be back soon" he promised, giving my hand a light squeeze before letting go. He walked towards his men who were facing him and they took off their clothes.It is known that the beasts do not care about their nudity but I still can't my gaze to the ground but when I looked back up, everyone were watching so I took it as a normal thing.The deafening sound of men grunting and bones snapping in and out of places made me wince. God, that would hurt like a fuker.Soon, the sound of bones breaking and reforming stopped and I watched in fascination as their legs turned into limbs, fingers turning into paws and their faces l
My body hurt and I can't move. It felt like my body has been buried six feet under the snow and the coldness biting into my skin.I hiss as I rolled to my side and groaned when the pain hits harder. I closed my eyes and took in deep breaths then pulled myself in a sitting position.I blinded the tears that had gathered around my eyes and wait for the pain to subside.The dream felt real... So so real to the point that I could feel it even when I woke up. I raised my hand to the nightstand and turnee on the lamp. I gasped when I saw the small cuts from the tip of my fingers to my arm.I looked over the other parts of my body and my eyes widen when everyone single skin were covered in fresh cuts that leaked blood. I swallowed and looked around scared shitless for my life.Fearfully and with shaky hands, I brought my hand to the wall and turned on the light. I released a sigh of relief when I looked around and saw that no one was watching.My right eye ticked and stinged when I swinged m
MICAH'S POVWe've being running for a day now, nonstop and i could feel the venom of the witches snake bite spreading through my body and it is already weakening me."Let's rest for the day' i said to my men through mind link and their pace slowed down to a joggle before the stopped around me ans started shifting into their human forms.The bag that was strapped to my side in my wolf form suddenly became slack as u transformed to my human.I sat down underneath a tree and picked up the bag that held the medicine Diana gave to me yesterday abd brought out the small jar that contained the brown portion that would slow down the poison from spreading throughout my body.I opened the lid and the strong smell of the portion made my nose itch and my eyes water. I hissed in pain as I applied directly on the unhealed wound, tilting my head backward so it would rest on the tree.After a few minutes, the pain subside and it felt like I could finally breath again. I looked down to my chest to see
Fallon and I pulled away from each other as the door opened. I turned around with wide eyes, my heart beating down fast in my chest."I'm naked!" I shouted to whoever was there and the door paused."I just came to check up on you" the person said and I recognized the voice from yesterday to be Beta Kyles. "I'm fine" I said breathlessly then cleared my throat and repeated the words.He hesitated, his shadow shining into this room and his grip still on the door."Okay." He finally said before slowing closing the door behind him.I knew that Beta Kyle hesitated because of what happened yesterday. He practically saw me naked and I'm sure he wouldn't do it again unless he wishes to loose his head.Both Fallon and I released a sigh of relief at the same time. I pushed my back to the wall and closed my eyes trying to calm my racing heart.I do hope Beta Kyle couldn't smell our arousal or else that would be the end of me - or rather, Fallon and I could not afford that.Not that I am in love
I never knew there were so many other mythical creatures in this world except for the mages, dragons and wolves.Within two hours of sitting here and flipping over pages, I've learned much more than I did in the last twenty years.I lowered the book that was covering my face down to my lap gently when I heard the library door open. Footsteps echoed in the calm silent room and the voices of males talking reached my ears."Be Fast!" hissed a voice that sounds quite familiar. I held my breath in fear that I might be caught eavesdropping on their conversation.I slightly tilted my head to the left to get a better view of who the Delta Leonardo was talking to. I could only see the back of the man who he was talking to and from his lanky form, I assume he's a human.They were both staring at each other and the Delta wore and expression of impatience.After a few beats, the unknown man finally spoke. "Until you give us the information that the Highest priestess needed" He said inbox scratchy
Micah's POVIt's been four days since we left the Kingdom and journeyed to the high mountains and everyday I become weaker and weaker.My men have taken notice and I fear that they might try to challenge me for the throne in my weakened state. As we kept on running in our wolf form, it became hotter and I knew we were almost there.The dragon's layer.After two more hours of running through the high mountain, we stopped about two hundred feet to the gate of the dragon king's home. We all shifted into our human forms and walked to the gates that were guarded by it's warriors."Halt!!" Yelled a man from above and I gritted my molars in irritation. No one tells the King what to do but of course I was in an unknown territory — seeking for help so I have to obey.The gate was pushed ajar and two man in dragon scales amour and a spare in their left hands came out."Who are you and state your business" The one with a very dark skin said, his eyes checking each of us from head to toe to see i
