Witnesses
After dinner we were just sat in the bedroom in silence, there's not much you can do in when it's light while here. It's too dangerous to go outside in the day in case we're recognised, which means we're stuck in this house all day. I sat on the bed while Gray took off the "normal clothes". At dinner we have a rule that we don't mind-link anyone and phones are off, that way we have each other's undivided attention. I assumed he would be quiet and not want to talk due to his mother, he was actually the opposite and was so talkative and happy which was shocking, but it did make me happy to see him happy after the last few days.
"I can guess that your dinner is over as I'm not being blocked out, sorry I had to drop the bombshell to the King over the phone but mind-link wouldn't work out there, I've just left but she's joining me and wouldn't take no for an answer" Erik voice says through mind-link, I take a look at G

The Kings Mate Connected
"Rupert?" Gray asks dumbfounded staring at his photo, I just nod my head placing the photo on the desk."We had the same reaction to the news, we've found out that Rupert was also one of your fathers men that helped him commit such heinous crimes" I start to explain while Erik begins to pull more papers out, we fell down a rabbit hole investigating this "now all this linked together and I mean it all, Matilda's death, your mother as we now know, faking her death and Rupert's house burning down, they're all connected" I say laying the photos on the table, honestly it was a lot, we must have used about a tree and a half making all these up."But you say there was a witness there, if Rupert was working with his dad he wouldn't spill his guts to officials, after his dad killed Rupert's mate he didn't have anything to do with Grayson's family at all"
The Kings Mate Mother
Guards immediately start to file into the office blocking any doors and windows, Gray's arms lock around me as the room instantly becomes packed as the shouting continues. I look back at Gray very worried who places a kiss on my shoulder, I think this was him telling me I was going to be okay."That is absolutely correct my love, no harm is going to come to you, I promise" he mind-links hearing my thoughts, I take hold of one of his arms that were still tightly wrapped around me.A few silent minutes in the room pass, the shouting got louder for a second but than stopped abruptly. But the thing that stood out to me was it didn't sound like a man, to me it sounded like a woman. In my mind I was trying to match the voice to someone I knew, but I couldn't place the voice with anyone. This would mean either Rupert has a very girly voice or, it's not
The Kings Mate Horrendous
It was silent for what left like an eternity, Gray and I stood outside the door just staring at the women inside the door, who was also just looking back at us. No one dared to make the first move, I run my thumb over Gray's knuckles to show him I'm here but also in hopes to snap him out of it. It works and he begins to lead me into the room, the guard bows their head at us before leaving the room closing the door behind them. The stand off only continued, no one dared to move or even talk for a few seconds. Thankfully, Gray's mum spoke up."My baby look at you, you won't believe how much I've missed you" she says tears welling up in her eyes as she spoke, she then turns her attention to me stood beside Gray "you must be his mate, oh my you're so beautiful" she smiles at me, I send her a smile back at her kindness."Thank you, I'm Clara" I smile
The Kings Mate Wouldn’t Hurt A Fly
We arrived back to the castle in the early hours of the morning, honestly I thought it would go as smoothly as leaving the castle would be, but boy was I mistaken! We were supposed to leave the safe house this morning, but Gray got word that Rupert somehow learnt the location of the safe house, he blames his mother for showing up. So late last night after being literally dragged from bed and into a car, we arrived at the castle in the really early hours. Gray wasn't kidding when he told me they put an increase in the guard presents around the castle, they're down every corridor and office I even saw them in a crawl space when I was walking around! Lets just hope they don't get too overwhelming, but I know Gray is only doing this as he cares.I was so nervous for the day ahead of me, if you remember Erik told me he had something he needed to discus with me about Cyrus. Everything with Gray's mother kind of put that
The Kings Mate Heartless
"I know you came here and spoke with your dad a few weeks ago, I haven't saw him since which means you've done one of two things" he begins to speak, in his mind he was leading this conversation "either you've off'd him, which I honestly think you don't have it in you or, he's agreed to something and you've let him go, which one am I right about Clara?" He asks me smirking, he tries to lean forward but the handcuffs behind his back prevented him from doing so."As much as you're trying to hide it, you're struggling right now aren't you Cyrus?" I ask with a smile, he looks annoyed at me for a second but I just continue "now you and I need to come to some sort of arrangement, if we do than you can be free of all these struggles, how does that sound?" I ask tilting my head a little as I spoke, he looks up at me giving me a look which showed he was intrigued.&nb
The Kings Mate Round Two
I wait around the corner of the reception to compose myself, I can't believe Gray and I had our first mini fight. I couldn't just stand there and allow him to treat people like that, I've never saw him like that and what I did see, I didn't like.Once I was fully calm I walk around the corner where Kyle stood, he kind of looked different to when I last saw him. He looked tougher in a way, probably the job of an Alpha did that. He looks up his eyes lighting up a little when he saw me, I'm engulfed in a tight hug for a second.We stand there for a few minutes, I didn't know how much I actually needed this hug. He was always there for me growing up and was my go to guy to help, I guess things haven't changed since we were little."When were you gonna tell me you let dad go?" he a
The Kings Mate Price Of One
It's been almost a week since Gray and I fought and made up, he's been so lovely this whole time, not that he's not so lovely anyway. He's been leaving a single rose in different places throughout the day, there was a day I never came across one so he places it in his suit for when I saw him next. Other than that the days have been pretty uneventful for the days I have now, Erik sent a team down to start interviewing Cyrus and whoa, we got more than we bargained for. So with his statement and my fathers, Erik feels like we have a nearly airtight story.Today I had another task at hand, I promised Gray's mother that I would have a meeting with her, I never break a promise which is why it's happening today. I told Gray and tried my hardest to persuade him to meet with her, but he told me he doesn't want to sit in the same room as that woman ever again, so I was going alone. I make my way down the corridor alone whic
The Kings Mate Don’t Understand
"Clara, Clara" I hear someone saying my name over and over again, they sounded close but I couldn't make out who it was at first.I slowly open my eyes lifting my head up, this is when I discovered I was in a dark and wet warehouse tied to a chair. My hands were tightly tied behind my back, while my legs were tied to the chair legs."Clara you're okay?" I hear the same voice, I turn my head as much as I could to see Lizzy also tied to the chair behind me "I was starting to get worried" she says still looking behind, starting to?! Being tied to a chair in a middle of a warehouse isn't imitate worry for her?!"Do you know where we are?" I ask looking around but I couldn't see anything that might indicate where we were, again it was just a dark and wet warehouse place.
