Chapter 33
That hour was one of the longest I've experienced in my short life. My brain came up with every possible scenario that left Viktor permanently wiped from my life. It was selfish to ask this of him, but he was my only hope. I couldn't trust anyone else with the task, and I knew Viktor could come and go easily without being spotted. There was no way I'd be able to complete the task myself without getting noticed.
Viktor came silently through my bedroom door and I released a sharp breath. Viktor had come back after all. My eyes raked over his towering form, looking for any injuries. Viktor looked as good as ever, with his tousled chocolate hair and piercing eyes. It seemed as though there wasn't a single scratch on his body."You underestimate me?" Viktor was the first to break the comfortable silence. His tone wasn't mocking or condescending, simply curious.I shook my head, "After watching you kill four guys by yourself, I think I'm past underestimating y

After I gave Uncle Jaspar the necklace, it felt as though a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. While I believed my intentions to be pure, the thought of losing Aela for even a few days was terrifying. Uncle Jaspar provided me with what help he could and for that I was thankful.I stayed in my bedroom well into the afternoon. The dinner cart pulled me from my thoughts."You can just leave it." I nodded at one of the servants with a smile."Place it outside your room when you are finished, Princess." The older woman smiled back.I ate my dinner in silence, my mind attempting to focus on many things at once. I found I couldn't tap into my mate at will. It was a give and take type of connection. I could only receive the emotions and thoughts

(Flashback)"I need a favor." I looked at Viktor with pleading eyes, "I can't trust just anyone with this."Viktor paused, his dark eyes searching my own. "What is your favor?" I tried not to smile as his thick accent filled the room."I need a replica of this necklace." I pointed to the one on my neck, "As soon as possible."Viktor paused, curiosity filling his dark eyes. "Why would you need something like that?", he asked."My Uncle wants me to give him this necklace. He says I'm not ready for it." I shrugged, "Nothing is certain, but I'd like to make sure his intentions are..pure."Viktor came forward, lifting his gloved hand to my necklace. I inwardly cringed, hoping it wouldn't hurt him the way it hurt the men who had crept into my room. The necklace was cold against my skin, not a si

Viktor was gone; he was actually gone. I had just found out the identity of my mate and he slipped through my fingers within seconds. I couldn't process anything other than the horrific longing I felt coming from Viktor, and the insane urge to chase him into the darkness.Shannon stood silent, her eyes glistening with acceptance. I didn't bother asking if she had known all along; it wouldn't surprise me anymore. She probably found out weeks ago.Aela wanted to scream--to curse the two of us for being so stupid, so blind. It's funny how easily you miss things, only to realize the signs were right in front of you the entire time. The strange connection I felt towards Viktor, the constant urge to be near him and touch him, all effects of the mate bond. The leather gloves that seemed to follow him wherever he went. Some small part of me was curious, why wouldn't he want

As impossible as I knew it was, I wanted an instant solution. I needed Viktor back, needed his name clear. My Dad was right, any solution wouldn't be instant. There were too many people working against us, too many people eager to see us removed from the throne.The name Nikolai Aslanov didn't seem to surprise my Dad. His face fell into a dark grimace, his eyes flaring with anger.

When Shannon demanded something, she got it.Shannon was clearly born to rule. It was evident in her voice, in the conviction she let shine into her words. Her Mom Sheila, was exactly the same way. It was hard resisting the two of them when they put their foot down."Bella, I might not be strong but I will pick you up and throw you into this bath." Shannon grimaced, her hands on her hips as she watched me.Shannon had spent the last half an hour running me a bath. She said she put 'the works' in it. I wasn't sure what that meant, but I could only assume."Don't give me that look." Shannon rolled her eyes, "You know I didn't put no weird stuff in that bath.""Uh huh." I nodded, giving the bubbling bath a skeptical look.The smell coming off of the water was heavenly, but I wouldn't admit that to Shannon. I enjoyed giving her a hard time, but she knew I meant well."I put some damn bath oils in." Shannon rolled her eyes but

Caroline took my confession as expected, the girl did love gossip after all."What?" Caroline's jaw dropped. I'm guessing she didn't expect my answer. "What makes you say that?""I have my ways." I shrugged, "People talk, and that's the name they've been saying.""That's crazy." Caroline shook her head, "Now that's some gossip people will love--""You can't tell anyone." I shook my head, "I don't need this flying around.""It could endanger Bella's life." Shannon frowned, catching onto what I was doing with ease. "Her Dad's trying to find some evidence against Elena Halifax."Caroline's mouth popped open in a little 'o', but she promised not to tell anyone. She continued pressing me for more gossip while we finished lunch, none of which I gave. Sometimes it was refreshing talking to Caroline. She never really took anything seriously. Sometimes it was annoying, others it was helpful. She could put things into perspective at times, making you

Shannon and I stayed in my bedroom until well in the afternoon. One of the servants brought the dinner cart, leaving us in silence.We talked about many things, all in our hushed tones. Beta Devin had taken up temporary residency in Viktor’s old bedroom, a fact that didn’t sit right with me. I didn’t like how easily Viktor was replaced. It was easy for everyone else; he was just a faceless bodyguard. I couldn’t imagine someone else taking Viktor’s place.Where I had once loathed the idea of a bodyguard, I would do anything to get Viktor back. I owed that to him.Shannon and I were dealing with one of our many problems, finding proof against Nikolai Aslanov.“How are we going to get proof when he’s thousands of miles away.” Shannon groaned, falling back on my bed.“I have no idea.” I shook my head, “It’s not like I can just call him up and invite him over to dinner. Dad would ha

“You have to tell your Dad.” Shannon grimaced as the two of us sat on my bed.“I don’t want to.” I shook my head stubbornly, knowing what had to be done.Shannon rolled her eyes, “You knew beforehand you’d have to tell him. Don’t chicken out now.”“I’m about to tell the Alpha King a man he hates is coming to dinner tomorrow.” I pursed my lips, “He’s not going to be happy.”“And you’re not just anybody. You’re his daughter.” Shannon frowned, “Just be honest with him.”“You’re right.” I admitted reluctantly, “Let’s do this.”‘Dad?’ I called out in the mind-link.
