DerekWhy does Melody's hand feel so strangely familiar? We've never held hands before and I'm only holding onto her right now because I can feel her impatience. She was trying to run away. She didn't want to go into her mother's chamber and I have a strong suspicion that this is related to the reason why she left the pack before. I want to find out what happened and I will stop at nothing to get my answer, even if I have to hold her hand against my wish. I rubbed my hands against hers again and I felt this familiar feeling. It felt as if I have held this hands before now. The warmth and softness of her hand reminds me of the woman I spent the night with those years ago. I know for a fact that it couldn't be Melody, but why does her hand feel so familiar? I tried to figure out why I was having this strange feeling, then her body brushed against mine as she moved to go into her mother's arms. I felt it again the tingles and this isn't from the mate bond. This is something differe

Melody Before I could realise what was happening. The glow in Derek's eyes was gone. It was as if it never appeared there in the first place. I moved to go to him; to check if it was my imagination or did his eyes really twinkle like Aaron's? However, Derek excused himself and went out of the room. I tried to go after him; I needed to be sure. "Melody!" Sophia pulled me into her arms. Hugging me so tight that I almost couldn't breathe. "I've missed you so much!"Honestly, I've missed her too, but what could I do? Her brother wanted me to stay away, so I did. "How are you doing, your highness?" I asked, before getting pulled out of mother's chambers. "I have a lot to say to you." She pulled me back to the garden. "Really?" I smiled seeing the excitement on her face and in her tone. It was obvious that she couldn't wait to tell me all she has kept buried within her all these years. "Yes Mel! A lot!" She exclaimed. We finally stopped and sat down on the garden swing. Sitting on

MelodyHow dare he! How could he do that to me? Who does he think he is? Just because he is king, he thinks he can do anything he wants?First he rejected me and treated me like I was nothing tangible, then he taunted me for not accepting his rejection and when I was about to accept the rejection, he kissed me.I placed my hand on my lips where he kissed me and all I could feel was anger. If I was that young Melody who ran after Derek all her life, then I will probably be jumping with joy. But I am not that naive girl anymore. I am Melody and I'm the mother of two strong young wolves and I am the would-be Luna of the Dark Flame Pack. I refuse to be treated that way. I wish I could slap him some sense, but I couldn't do that just because he is the king. He is the Alpha king and should be respected. However, I can't promise not to slap him the next time he does that to me. Angrily, I marched towards my chambers where I met Sofia waiting outside. "Melody, here, check this out." She

Derek"What has happened?" I asked as soon as we sat in the carriage. "Your majesty, some rouges have been found in our territories. They've attacked some villages in the north.""What? How did that happen? We had strong men stationed at the borders, right?" I demanded."Yes, your majesty, we did," he replied, seemingly angry too. "I do not know how they've managed to cross and that is why we must act fast. If they attack us from the south and conquer, we'll be rendered weak."Rendered weak? No way! This is my kingdom and it will never be rendered weak. "What do you propose?" Maximus took out a map immediately. He sat on the floor of the carriage while I watched what he was doing. I only asked for his opinion. I wonder why he has a map."The best thing to do now is to deploy more soldiers to the north to subdue the enemy while we send reinforcements to the south, in case they target our other weak point. Then we'll send our able wolves to hold the east and west to prevent any attac

Melody"Never mess with my fiance!" I rubbed my injured foot and watched as she dumped the basket on me before storming off. Mess with her fiance? When did I do that? Wasn't it the other way round? I wonder if I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. That's probably why everyone keeps blaming me even though I have done nothing. I decided to stay quiet since it was Sofia's wedding. I wouldn't want to ruin it. Besides, father's keen eyes had been on me the entire time, sending warnings. He still hasn't changed. Always thinks the worst of me. I shook my head and followed Sofia as the couple were made to stand under the moonlight to take their second vows with the moon goddess as witness. My foot hurt badly, yet I managed to keep the pain in. I promised to be there with Sofia the entire time today and I will uphold that promise. She moved the wedding up just to have me attend. I won't disappoint her. After taking their vows, they sat down to receive their gifts and I got the c
