23 days to her birthday
Saturday
Someone knocked on the door
"Come in" I said and Liam stepped inside
"Hey Liam" I said happily when I saw him "I've been asking of you"
"I was out, trying to find Jack"
My face went down instantly
"I didn't mean to make you feel bad or sad" he said as he sat next to me on the bed
"You aren't. Do you think that he might still be alive"
"He might. He might have escaped and that is why I'm trying to get to him before they do"
"Thanks Liam"
"You're welcome"
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Of course, you can" he replied
"I've been thinking about this since morning"
"Go ahead"
Those people dying in the woods, were they our people?"
"Every single one of them" he replied sadly "We and their families always knows the truth about them and we always find them before normal people can. His highness intentionally did nothing about those guys y
22 days to her birthdaySundaySomeone knocked on my door and I woke up"Your highness, may I come in?" Sabrina said from the other side of the door"You may"I sluggishly got up and sat on the bedShe put some white clothes on the couch that was in my room and looked at me"Put this on once you're cleaned your highness, I will come for you later""Okay"I watched as she turned back and left and slowly got out of bed to check the clothes. It was an extremely white gown"What is this for?" I thought before heading to the restroom-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Knock knock"You may come in"Alex stepped inside the room and checked me out for some seconds before speaking"You look hot in that" he saidI don't know whether that was a compliment or an insult but from a girl that have never rece
22 days to her birthdaySundayLiam was no where to be found after the wedding. He might have went somewhere to numb his pain. What if the reason why he never asked me out was because he knew I wasn't his? I thoughtWe were ushered to the big hall after the wedding and everybody screamed when they saw us coming"Ladies and gentlemen" a young man said while standing on the podium "Welcome our alpha, Alex Mixed and our queen, Irene Mixed"They all howled and I waved, trying to act as calm as possible because I was shaking inside. The fact that I might lose to Amara and put my race under his foot forever was terrifying.Alex spoke to the crowd while I stood by his side, smiling at people that were doing everything possible in order to catch my eyes----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Are you nervous?" Darcy asked me as she was combing my hair to the
21 days to her birthdayMondayI could hardly walk straight when I woke up the next morning and I wondered if this was what sex was all about.Alex wasn't in the room when I woke up which I was grateful for since I knew how awkward this morning would have been if he was.Someone knocked on the door and I adjusted my sitting position on the bed"Who is there?" I asked"Sophia" the girl at the door replied"You may come in"She opened the door and stepped inside."Your highness, Liam want to see you when you're less busy"Liam, I thought and I smiled. I'd wanted to see his beautiful face since yesterday"Okay, tell him I will be right there""Okay"I got out of the bed instantly and rushed to the bathroom"Liam" I called and smiled at him when I saw him. He was sitting on a stool in the hallway"Your highness" he said and bow his head slightl
20 days to her birthdayTuesdayI woke up in the middle of the night and saw Alex sitting on couch, he was deep in thought but it only took him about two seconds for him to know that I was awake"Hey" I smiled"I heard you broke your ribs, how are you feeling?"Oh shoot! I'd forgotten all about my broken ribs until he asked me. I touched it and felt no pain"I guess I'm fine now" I said and smiled but he didn't returned it.He got out of the couch and came to the bed"I heard you almost lost" he whispered"But I didn't""But you almost""But..." He raised his hand up in the air and stopped me from speaking"I don't think you know what this, everything is all about? I don't think you know what is at stake here? It's not about us, it's about our future. One single mistake from you might cost us everything""I know..." He raised up his hand in the air again and I
19 days to her birthdayWednesdaySabrina sat me down on a golden chair and put a crown on my head"The meeting is about to start" she whispered into my face "it's going to be the last meeting. All princesses are to meet in few minutes time"She started casting some spells and within seconds, everything changedI found myself on an olden bed in a room, which seemed like mine and I was looking at nothing in particular when somebody called my name"Irene"The voice was extremely familiar even though I had no idea who was calling me"I'm coming" I said and got out of my bedI opened the room door and stepped inside the longest and the most beautiful hallway that I've ever seen. I turned left and headed to where the voice came from"Oh!" a girl that looked like me stepped into the hallway from another room and said "she called you too. I guess it's time. You might not reme
19 days to her birthdayWednesdayAfter resting for few hours, I went out of my room and asked Sabrina about Darcy's whereabouts"She should be in her room, your highness" she replied"Where is her room?""The third room by the second hallway. Should I come with you your highness?""Don't worry, I gat this"I opened the door to her room"Oh! Baby more" someone moaned and I tried to slipped away but the people inside the room already knew about my presence.Someone rolled off the bed instantly and Liam's eyes looked back at mine."Liam" I called quietly in disbelief"Irene"Liam, I thought and almost cried. I knew I was married but somehow it still hurt. I thought I knew Liam but I don't"I'm sorry, I was... looking for Darcy, I didn't mean to disturb you guys" I said and turned back to leave"Irene" Liam called "Wait!"I closed the door and walke
18 days to her birthdayThursdayAfter being dressed in a golden armour, Sabrina handed me a sword and looked straight into my eyes, she was scared"Is there something you need to tell me?" I asked"No your highness. I know you can do this" she replied "Your mission is to meet the great Adrian Sargon and ask him for the Zia stone""Why do I have to meet my father like this?" I asked her even though I knew the reason"You will find out when you get there""And even if I have to fight my way in, I don't know how to use a sword""You're a natural fighter your highness" she replied and started casting her spellsI found myself outside a fenced building"This must be where dad is" I thought and wondered how to get in since the fence was too high for me to climb.I walked round the fence twice to see if there might be a way in but I found none. So, I made up my
18 days to her birthdayThursdayTwo Sabrina took something from my hand and ran out of the room. I was partially unconscious. Everything I was seeing were in two."She got the Zia stone!" I heard Sabrina screamed in the hallway and I imagined her raising the box up in the air"Irene! Irene!" People started shouting in the hallway and I used all the strength in me to get upSomeone opened the door and rushed to me, it was Darcy"Let me help you" she said"Thank you"She helped me out of the armor and hugged me "I've always knew you are our savior""I wouldn't have made it if not for my sisters"She held my hand and we both walked out of the ritual room"Hail Irene!" Alex howled into the air and the rest followed.Even though I did nothing to earn the praise, I was still proud of myself. I took my hand out of Darcy's hand and walked to Alex.He looked at
