Serena woke up to the sound of birds chirping from the open window of their room, Adrian was fast asleep and his hand was resting on her waist, she removed his hand gently trying not to wake him up. When she was out of bed she cleaned up quickly changing into a suitable gown. When she was done cleaning up she left the room leaving Adrian alone. Serena walked down the quiet hall every time she passed a servant they would bow and she would return their greeting with a smile. A few minutes later Serena had gotten to her destination which was the garden, ever since she was little she always loved nature and everything it provided them with.She took a seat on the bench placed in the garden and suddenly she felt like someone was watching her she turned and found a woman dressed in the most elegant green dress she had ever seen, she was also wearing a silver crown with beautiful gems embedded in them, Serena guessed she was one of the royal that was attending the ball.“Hello, I’m sorry I d
Stephen pulled away from Queen Kelly before going in his former position his gaze landed on Serena who gave him a small smile, Queen Ella also went to give Serena a hug, kissing her on the forehead before both queen’s and Stephen left the room leaving Serena and Adrian alone in their room. “You didn’t have to be so hard on her Adrian, she didn’t mean to hurt me and also she apologized, so can you please consider her apology, for me” Serena said pouting her lips, “You make it hard to stay mad at you or anyone else, you so kind and see the good in everyone even if there is none, that’s one reason why I love you and want to spank you at the same time” Adrian said causing heat to rise up Serena’s cheeks.“You look so cute when you are a flustered little one” Adrian said his hand was on her cheek caressing it gently, Adrian leaned in his lips were very close as he stared into her eyes. There wasn’t a moment of hesitation. His mouth was on hers, and Serena stopped breathing. He shuddered
Queen Ella just stared at her sister with different emotions flowing through her. It's been twenty-three years since we last saw each other and she didn’t know how to feel about their reunion after such a long time but before she could say anything. A knock came from the door and Queen Kelly and Ella’s gaze went to the door immediately. Queen Ella got to her feet and went to open the door and she was surprised to see who was standing in front of her.It was Hunter, the guard she placed here to watch Elena, “Hunter hello, I have been meaning to ask about you, everything has just been hectic with the ball coming up, I hope everything is okay” Queen Ella asked smiling at the soldier who was risking his life for her to bring Elena down.“I’m okay my Queen, I just wanted to see if you are okay being back here again, the soldier’s are busy so I might not be able to see you again, that’s why I came now, you look well my Queen and that makes me happy ” Hunter added giving the Queen a small s
As they walked towards the ball room, Serena turned her gaze to Stephen, “How many guests will be present?” Serena asked, nervous at the amount of people that would see her like this.“Serena, the winter ball was the most popular event in the whole four regions,so everyone will surely want to attend,” Stephen added. “Great!, I just hope I don’t make a fool of myself and ruin everything”“Don’t worry you have us and the plan will go well, don't you worry” Stephen said, giving her a small smile. When they got to the ballroom two guards were standing at the entrance. Stephen went to introduce them to the guards before coming back to stand beside them.The guards announced Stephen first, followed by Adrian and Serena, the large door opened and the three of them walked into the ballroom and Serena caught her breath. Saying the room was beautiful is an understatement. The walls were glittering like ice, everyone's gaze fell on them and whispers filled the room. She could hear questions li
“This is new, you didn’t threaten to attack him for dancing with me, is that because you know him, he did mention that before” Serena asked in a playful tone. “No, I didn’t really like him back then, he was to full of himself but I don’t know about now and the reason why I didn’t react to him dancing with you was because he gave me a very good reason why he had to dance with you” Adrian answered handing the cup of wine over to her which Serena gladly accepted with a smile, “and what reason might that be” Serena asked.“some immature men calling themselves Princes thought it would be fun to place a bet on who gets to dance with you first, so in order to avoid a altercation, he decided to keep you away from them, for their sake, maybe he knows what would have happened if I caught any of them talking to you" Adrian answered grinning evilly causing Serena to smack him in the arm.“Stephen was right you are quite violent”, Adrian said running his hands down the part she just hit him.“I’m
Once Queen Kelly got to Ella’s room she immediately knocked on the door, her gaze scanning her surroundings to see if anyone was roaming around. Queen Ella opened it up expecting it to be Stephen but when she saw Kelly, she stared at her with a confused expression. “what do i owe the pleasure of your visit Kelly, we weren’t meant to meet today,”“You know what I came her for, your plan was to scare her, is that all you have up your sleeve to get her to confess her crimes, if so I’m quite disappointed” Queen Kelly asked, “Listen Kelly you can’t come here and act like you own the place, all I ask is for you to mind your business and we will continue with our plan, your help isn’t needed” Ella said in a stern tone.“How can I do that when you are handing that girl to the wolves? Queen Kelly said, “Kelly you don’t have to be here and you don’t have to put your nose in our business, we were doing just fine without you” Ella said, “but-“.“Gosh Kelly do you ever stop whining” Queen half ye
The next day guest started to leave due to the events that took place during the ball, most of them left out of fear and the other’s left because they had pending issues in their regions and couldn’t stay any longer, they only came out of courtesy of Queen Tiara. Queen Elena already had an idea of who was responsible for yesterday’s event and it was no one other than her sister’s Ella and Kelly. She overheard them arguing in Ella’s room the day before when she wanted to go speak with them about the same event so she put two and two together and she was quite sure that her sisters had a hand in this, they were always jealous of her ever since she was little.*Flashback*Queen Ella was about to go see her sister Ella to ask about what had happened during the ball and if she knew why it happened but she overheard Kelly’s voice and stopped in her tracks, it seemed like they were arguing about something so she tried to listen to their conversation.“what do i owe the pleasure of your visi
Thorne’s men searched around looking for anyone who might have a grudge against Queen Ella and would like to take revenge and they stumbled upon some information about a man named George who was sentenced to life for killing one of the Queen’s people right in her castle.So they told Thorne and he went to visit George in Ashmount Prison, knowing who Thorne is, the guards did bother checking his Identification or asking what he was here for and allowed him into the prison directing him to the visiting room. A few minutes later George was brought to him, his face was swollen and the exposed parts of his body were filled with bruises.The inmates must already know what he did, killing an innocent person is really a big deal in this region, once George was seated his gaze never left Thorne, which made him wonder what the representative of the lycan’s was doing here.“Hello George, I’m sure you know who I am” Thorne said and George nodded, “you look really terrible, the inmates must not lik
