CHAPTER 51. ReeneAs I leaned on the headboard, my heart felt like it had been stabbed by millions of knives. Recalling how I had felt like a clown in their presence, made my head feel heavy. The door pushed open at that moment, and a sullen looking Kaden walked in. Sighing, he shut the door close and approached me."I'd like to be left alone." I said softly, not meeting his gaze.He was silent, then he took his place beside me. "You shouldn't upset our child." He said calmly."Then leave. The sight of you makes me angry." I spat, ignoring the hurt look on his face. I hadn't meant it of course, but I wanted to say words that'd hurt him as much as possible.Yet, seeing him in pain, made my heart clench."Amber," he whispered, drawing close."I'm sure you wouldn't want things to get tough, would you? Then, leave without coming close to me." I met his gaze, not blinking at all.I watch him stiffen, and his hand froze midway."You're doing just what they want you to." He

CHAPTER 53. Reene "Take your seats Alphas," Antonio rose and ordered. I looked around. The hall was full this time, and I couldn't help but feel uneasy. So many what if's clouded my mind, and I tried calming down. It didn't work. A warm feel made me jerk my head, and my gaze darted downwards towards my hand. Kaden gave me a reassuring look. Breathe. His look said, and I found myself subconsciously relaxing. I wasn't alone in this. Kaden was with me. Silence descended on the hall, once Alpha Matthew rapped his staff on the large mahogany table. Surrounding it were the Sovereigns, each in well tailored expensive looking suits. I felt a stare on my body, so intense that I had to look around. Catching Gabe's gaze, made me stifle a growl. Bastard. His effort to get Kaden angry hadn't worked, and we'd left him back there. Alpha Dennison was seated beside him with a calm look. So calm that I became jittery. I couldn't help but recall what Brandon had reported. What if Gab

CHAPTER 55. ReeneShe averted her gaze, and got up. "Nothing, I said nothing."My heart was racing, although my outward demeanor was calm. She had addressed herself as my mother.I stared hard at her, my breathing harsh. "Is there something I should know?"She didn't respond, however I saw her gulp nervously. A thick silence descended. So thick, that I felt I could cut through it with a knife."It's time, Zemirah." I didn't know Alpha Aurel was still present in the room, until he spoke again.Confused, I looked at my mother. "What are you guys talking about?"She didn't respond, but instead heaved a sigh. "Come with us, Reene dear."And this time, I didn't bother lashing out at the name. Since I might as well find answers soon enough, there was no need to.They led me out of the room, Alpha Aurel at the front. Once we were outside, my jaw hung open. Designed like a cathedral, it had lots of rooms. As we walked father, I gave up on counting. There was no way I'd get used

CHAPTER 57. ReeneI admired the scenery outside, through the glass windows, marveling at how beautiful it was. I had always been a nature lover, albeit.That wasn't the reason I was standing close to the window so early in the morning, still clad in my nightwear though. It was in a bid to divert my mind from Kaden.I hadn't slept a wink all night, tossing and turning around. Praying to the Moon goddess that morning would dawn soon enough.I couldn't wait to see him."Prinzessin," a knock came at the door just then. I whirled around, rubbing on my arms."Yes, come in." The door creaked open, and a servant walked in. One thing I had noticed at Hezen was that every single one of them, from the servants up to the Alpha, were always smartly dressed. And beautiful too."The Königin requests that you head downstairs for breakfast. The Alpha is also there with her." She bowed."Oh, sure. Tell them to start without me. I'd be downstairs soon." I smiled."Yes, Prinzessin."

CHAPTER 59. Reene"So," I broke away from the kiss. "Why don't I show you to our room?" I led him out of the room, and down the hallway, hoping I wouldn't get lost. I didn't.Once we were safely within 'our' room, he tried groping me, and pulling me close to him, but I held out my hand. My breaths came out in shallow pants.He had taken my confession calmer than I had expected. And it was better I told him about the miscarriage while we were at it.A concern made its way into his eyes. "What's wrong love?" My confidence left me, and I took a step back. "I have something else to tell you." I lowered my head, unable to meet his gaze."Can it wait?" I felt the urgency in his tone. An urgency that matched mine. Ever since I smelt his scent again, my wolf had been restless within me. We had missed him so much."I'm afraid it can't." If I didn't tell him now, I wasn't sure I'd do so later. "Look at me, Amber." He ordered calmly.I felt myself obeying his command. His stare
