Lily blurted out. She saw through the man and knew that he was lying. Royal mother turned and glanced at lily whose eyes were focused on the man seated on the floor. Kayden Diego and Justin turned and saw Lily and the Royal mother standing at the door of the hall. Lily was looking too serious with the annoyance on her face. The man on the floor tried to turn to see the person who spoke but couldn't. The fetters used in chaining him was too firm to leave him a space to turn. "Come over lordess and prove what you said" Kayden Diego instructed. He watched his Luna as she took majestic steps forward. Royal mother followed and wants to see what would unfold. "This man is a liar my lord!!. He is a spy sent by the vampire lord to find a secret" Lily thundered. Turning to the man she scowl "Why don't you tell his highness that you were sent and failure to be successful will lead to the execution of your wife and children" As she stood in front of the man, she seemed to be x-raying
She arrived so swiftly like a wind. Lily almost thought she disappeared there all of a sudden. Lily recognized her at once. She was the one she met at Kayden's study that night who wants to be the lordess and asked the alpha to chose her( Envy) over her, his mate. Ignoring Lily she greeted"Good morning royal mother". Royal mother felt a little uncomfortable with Envy's approach but didn't put it it to heart. "You are here so early Envy. How are you doing?" Royal mother replied. But Envy was staring at Lily with utmost contempt and the latter spare her no good glance at all. "I am fine royal mother" she answered arrogantly. Royal mother squinted at how unpleasant Envy stared at the lordess. Before royal mother could say jack, Envy spoke "this is the human, your daughter in-law right?". Royal mother was unhappy how Envy spoke. She didn't even pay any respect to Lily as the lordess neither did she even greet her. Lily is not totally human but Envy categorized her completely to
Lily waited and looked at her mother inlaw to state what she wanted from her. Royal mother placed her hands on Lily's shoulders and said: "Promise me that you'll always wear this pendant for me" She requested looking very solem. Just that? Lily thought. She would be more than happy to wear it. If that's the simple request that royal mother was going to make, gladly she would give the promise. "I promise mum. I will always wear it wherever and whenever" Lily promised. She saw the brightened look on Royal mother and wondered if that pendant holds so much significant to her heart. "Thank you. That pendant used to belong to my daughter Xena. It was gifted to her on her last birthday by Kay. But she didn't get to wear it before her death" royal mother explained as the memory of Xena flashed through her mind. "Mum!, See what brother gifted me. Oh! It's so beautiful mum! This is the best gift I've ever received in my entire life" that was Xena's voice travelling in her memory. Three
Kayden Diego sat with his legs crossed as he watched his mate. She looked pretty and smart and holding a sword, she looked like a female warrior. Envy was standing with her sword dug into the ground, waiting for Lily. She was more than happy. She wondered if lord Diego would still keep this damn fool by his side as the lordess when the prisoners fest on her over the night. Lily heard Kayden called out to her telepathically, she paused but didn't look his side. "Defence first and same time master her methods of attack. Then lunch a deadly attack on her unawares". Lily smiled faintly before taking the few steps to stand before Envy. She doesn't know where her confidence came from, but she felt like a champion already. For the first time since meeting Envy, she saw her smile. She really smiled at her? Oh she must have start counting her victory already but she's definitely going to count her losses at the end of the day. The whistle was blown and the fighting officially began:
At this time, they were both just stepping out of the bathroom. Kayden had insisted they bath together. He doesn't feel like taking his eyes off her. She had impressed him greatly. Just that day, she had given him surprises, one after the other. First, she exposed the hidden agenda of the vampire spy, next she talked senses into him and this evening, she proved her worth to the entire werewolf clan and made him proud. He didn't lose face rather she made him respected the more and earn the respect of everyone in the entire clan for herself. His so proud of her and he felt happy that she's his Luna. "How did you fight with Envy and even won the contest. I am the only one in the entire clan that have an advantage over her" Kayden asked out of curiosity. He still can't fathom how strong Lily is to have overpowered that girl. "I can't explain myself. I only remember that I was acting under instincts. I found myself been driven by an inner force. But I would prefer to assume that
She least expected to see Lily sitting high there beside his highness. She looked so little below them. What a high level of humiliation. The one she detested and even refused to acknowledge as the lordess is seated today to decide her fate. Looking at Everyone present, Alpha Kayden commanded "Envy, before this Royal Court, state what your offense was?" Envy was chained and she could only whine in vain to free herself. She looked with hatred in her eyes towards Lily. This woman, she would end her life soon. She had made her ashamed and humiliated, she will make her pay for it. "I have done nothing wrong, your highness," Envy replied stubbornly. She will not accept any more defeat. Even if she was going to die, she would not accept her wrong. She was certain her father had pulled some strings that's why she didn't end up in the Ravens cage the previous night. He would have to pull more to enable her to gain her freedom. "You mean to say you went to the dungeon for committing n
Early next morning, Alpha Kayden went to exercise with his warriors and give them a little more training and gearing. Instructing them to see themselves as the brave clan warriors that they truly are. Towards noon, Alpha Kayden bade his parents farewell and went to his study with Lily ready to teleport back to the human world. Like how Lily held him when they left the human world, he instructed her to do the same. Only this time she held him passionately and placed her head on his chest. She didn't know how it happened this time as well but only opened her eyes to see they were in his study. This was where they took off from and they had returned again. She looked up at Kayden Diego and saw him towering over her with a smile. His usual royal robe had changed into a polo and a jeans trousers. He looked nothing like mysterious as he was in the werewolf clan. "Why do we take off and return through the study? Can't we take off somewhere else?"Lily asked like a little kid. Kayde
"I promise I won't leave you" Lily assured him. She said the very word Kayden wanted to hear from her. Kayden Diego felt really excited at Lily's words. "Sure?"he asked, seeking for an affirmation. "Absolutely," she replied. Kayden Diego bent over and kissed her temple. "I love you very much," he confessed. He doesn't know this is how love makes someone behave. He never thought he would ever love anyone but alas, he fell in love with Lily and wished he had known and possibly loved her earlier. Perhaps this fear he's hiding in his heart wouldn't have been there. "I love you too," Lily replied and smiled quietly. Wasn't this the same lord Diego who once yelled at her and told her he doesn't want to talk to her. He now confesses his love to her and even made her promise not to leave him. "Tell me something darling, why are sounding like someone who's afraid? Why do you think I will leave you someday?"Lily inquired. Kayden Diego fell silent for a long time before he decided to tel
