Dark turn
"Wolves! Stop her!" I heard behind me and I turned instantly, confused as to what was going on. Everyone in the ballroom had come outside and were all standing five steps above me watching as the guards circled me, trying to capture me. Jake stood in front of all the news-hungry people, telling his guards what to do.
"What are you doing?" I asked loudly, watching Jake in confusion.
"You are to be captured for treason, Clara Greyson," Jake ordered, and I chuckled in disbelief while watching the wolf guards with my peripheral vision.
I closed my eyes, instantly changing from the dazed horny girl craving some TLC and hating herself for it to Xavier's Luna and a powerful wolf. There was a loud noise from the crowd when I shifted into my wolf form. I felt a surge of power throughout my body, and I felt my muscles contract. My eyes were bloodshot when I opened them again and looked aroun

Thomas and I set off following the Alpha King's directive. We made lot of pit stops while he made his way to save me from my own stubborn desire to exact a scandalous revenge on my parents."Is that my picture on the papers?" I asked Thomas at one of our pit stops and he looked at me warily."I don't think you should see this," he said while hiding the newspaper in his hand behind him. I looked hard at him, sensing my anxiety already starting to get the better of me."No. I want to see it!" I insisted, getting up from the chair in the small room and grabbing the paper from his hands.Just as I had seen, there was a picture of me in the arms of Jake at the rooftop terrace of the castle.My mouth went open and my hands started shaking as I rushed to the middle page that had the story in it. Jake had definitely blackmailed me in order to destroy
Betrothed To The Rogue King A Thin Line Between Anger And Hate
My comment about Attus and Morrigan was below the belt, and I cussed myself quietly for saying that. " Okay, Clara. Okay." The Alpha King said finally."What does that mean?" I asked."You are a whore, but are you also daft? It means save yourself, Bitch!" He said angrily and ended the call.I stood looking at the burner for a while as tears rolled down my face. There I was again right at the centre of scared, abandoned and left to rot."We have to leave now, Miss. I am so sorry but someone kind of recognised you when we were coming in here, and I think Jake's wolves will be here to pick you up any moment." Thomas said, sounding hesitant. It was apparent that he did not want to intrude on my pain but he also felt that it was necessary that I got the information.I nodded, trying to compose myself. "Thank you, Thomas. Let's go." I said, grabbi
Betrothed To The Rogue King A friend in need
After the close shave and everything else that happened with it, I was too scared to actually leave the new safe house. Eventually with the help of Thomas, I got a burner and dialled Attus's number. He answered almost immediately like he was expecting the call."Hey," I said tentatively, wondering how things had gotten so weird and so strained between us."Clara? Is that really you C? Are you okay?" He called out immediately, and I bursted into tears. Hearing the concern and worry in his voice even when he was not my husband and had no business really caring about me that much was definitely too emotionally overwhelming for me. I could not stop the tears as I lowered myself onto the bed in the room and just kept crying with my face in my hand."Oh, Clara… What have they done to you, my darling?" He sounded so nearby, bad that made me even sadder. I felt like if I reached out my hand
Betrothed To The Rogue King Loves
"I watched him do wicked things to the people he claimed to love. He showed every sign of being exactly the kind of man that I was supposed to run as far away from as my legs could carry me. But every time he looked at me with lust or something akin to love, I felt myself melt. My stupid heart would fall at the sign of anything that looks like brutality because I guess my life experiences have taught me that men are best served cold and brutal." I chuckled lightly to myself, wallowing in self pity."So, when he came back acting all nice, I accepted him with wide open arms and a flutter in my belly. I am always begging and desperate for love even when I am in the midst of love in its purest form. Attus was the wrong one, but he loved, and he still loves me right. And what exactly can a girl do when the wrong one loves her right?" I looked over at Thomas, feeling a bit ill.He scoffed and looked away from me. "Talk to
Betrothed To The Rogue King Wild dream
As I walked away from Thomas, I felt a sense of clarity and purpose. I knew what I needed to do, and it was time to take action. I went back to my room and started packing my bags. I was going to leave the palace and go back to Attus.As I packed, I felt a pang of sadness and guilt. I had to leave the Alpha King, who had been nothing but kind to me. But I knew that I could not stay here any longer. I needed to be with the one who truly loved me.As I was finishing up my packing, there was a knock on my door. I opened it to find the Alpha King standing there. "Clara, may I come in?" he asked.I hesitated for a moment before stepping aside to let him in. He walked into the room and took a seat on the couch. "I wanted to talk to you about something," he said, looking at me with concern.I sat down across from him, feeling a knot in my stomach. I knew what he was going to say,

"What do you intend to do about Xavier though." Attus asked, and I looked at him with a faraway and hurt look on my face."I don't know, Attus. I really have no idea where to start from. It's not even like he has called or reached out to apologize or anything. So I guess it's done." I said, acting braver than I actually felt."It is okay to be hurt, C! He really hurt you, and it is okay for you to feel all that pain. It is through the wound that the light enters into us." Attus said, being as wise as he always was."Thank you. But I'm good. For now at least. But I want to return to Jake. He will definitely take me back if I return and become his wife. He is too vain to not like the narrative that his love drew me back into his arms. Since Xavier wants to be an ass." I said with fire in my eyes and my heart ice cold."Are you sure that's what you wan

Attus nodded and followed me to the fridge, keeping a watchful eye on me. "I understand, C. Dreams can be confusing and unsettling, but it's important to remember that they are just dreams. They don't have any power over mer decisions in the waking world.""That's true, but it still bothers me," I said, taking a swig of water. "I don't want to be thinking about Xavier when I'm about to marry Jake. It's not fair to anyone."Attus nodded in agreement. "I know, my love. But perhaps it's worth exploring these feelings with a therapist. They can help me work through any unresolved emotions or conflicts I may have surrounding my past relationship with Xavier."me sighed and nodded, knowing that Attus was right. "Yeah, you're probably right. I'll make an appointment in the morning."Attus gave me a reassuring smile and pulled me into a hug. "It's going to be okay, C. I'm here for

Becky opens the door when I ring the doorbell, and looks very surprised when she sees me."Hello, Stranger," I say in a sad tone, having flashbacks of everything that we have gone through on the last few years."Clara?" She calls out my name in disbelief. "Why are you here? What are you doing here?""Oh… Wow!" I chuckle deeply and bitterly. "What a way to say hi after years of silence." I felt broken by her composure.Becky's expression softens as she realizes the impact of her words. "I'm sorry, Clara. It's just that we weren't expecting you.""I know," I say, my voice cracking. "I just need to talk to Mom and Dad. Can I come in?"Becky nods
