After reaching the hunting ground early, Riley and I look for Mom who was knee-deep in the preparations. Mom’s job doesn’t have a particular description but you could say she is the Queen Dowager’s Manager’s assistant. The job might have been not that special but it suited Mom. No matter what Dad thinks, I believe it was the right step for her as well for us as a family. she seems happy after getting this job and I am happy for her.“Riley, your friends are here. You can go with them and I will join you after finishing this.” I say to Riley who is checking the to-do list. I know she won't say it but her frequent glances at the watch is an clear indication of her excitement. I might be an outcast but my sister is a total rockstar and i love seeing her happy and vibrant. “You sure?” she asks with a gu

Cynthia I was back at the ground where we were waiting for the winner. After Cole was taken to the clinic, Aaron told me to come back here to my family as Cole will be at the clinic. He also told me his family has been informed. He actually ordered me to come here and enjoy the event which was the right thing to do. I need to be here for mom. She basically organized the whole thing and I need to witness her glory. As soon as the projector showed how Nash has managed to hunt a wild boar the whole ground went up in cheers and shouts. He was making his way back. “I didn’t think Nash would win, to be honest. Did you think it was a set-up?’’ Eva asked when Daisy cheered up for Nash.“Hey! That’s my friend you are talking shit about.” Daisy said defending Nash. I suspect she has a little crush on him or maybe-maybe just like me she knows he’s her mate. To be honest I hope not. For us mortals, immortal mates are just like a curse. “I mean he’s family to the royal

Chapter 14Cynthia AGE-16“I know you are my mate, Princess.” He reveals and sighs.I had imagined thousands of scenarios in my head. Scenarios of hearing the same words but in none of them, I was this numb. I mean this was what I wanted right? Then why do I feel dread, like I am waiting for another shoe to drop? Still focusing on the words I respond in the best way possible.“You know? How? I mean when, how? That’s amazing! Do you have any idea how long I have been waiting for you to find out.” my words are a mess just like my emotions. I can’t believe he knows. My mate finally recognized me. he feels our bond and just like that I could feel my bond healing itself under the care of knowledge that our mate has recognized us. He frowns but nods and starts explaining to me what really happened today. “ I knew you were something to me from the moment you were born Cynthia but the way we are, the situation, your

Chapter-16Cynthia Age-18“I will have a tea with one cube of sugar and two slices of chocolate cake.” “I want two slices of Pizza but make the crust thin but not too thin. Keep the tomato sauce on the medium and lots of cheese, no mushrooms or olives.”“Just two coffee and whatever snacks you want to recommend us.”“Excuse me! I asked for a coconut sherbet, this is not sherbet, this is an insult on my tongue.”“Excuse me! I need to see the manager here”“Yes! Baby, I want a coke and if you want some too then can I have your number?”“Hey! Where’s my ketchup? that’s rude.” That’s the sum up of my interactions with the different types of customers we regularly see or handle. The café had no tips rule so there are not even any rewards at the end of the day. Like I said the most cheapest café, a customer’s favorit

“You found me,” he growled. “You doubted me?’’ my beast growled back! “No! not doubt, just worried for you!” his beast howled. “ Are you still worried for me?” mine howled back to him. sassing all the way. “Always” he howled and for hours, our wolves bonded and played in the forest. We were beyond two mates, we were slowly merging into two soul mates. Suddenly the rain started, forcing us to stop our play. We decided to go back to our own places. As I shifted back I was still in a daze. Couldn’t tell difference between things. Aaron has helped me to prevent myself from going down the hole of self-destruction rage but was that enough? Enough for me to forgive him? what today happended has forced me to leave the romantic notion of my mating behind. i just can't spend the rest of my life pinning over Aaron but what else can i do? he is my mate, no matter what.  I couldn’t decide. After reaching home, I jus
