Not able to take her silence much longer, "Lore, what's going on here? I asked you a question, a very simple question for that matter that is very easy for you to answer. Why are you not answering it? Do I need to command you to answer before you do?"
I chipped in that last question just to make her answer me.
Bowing deeply at me, "Y...Your highness, forgive me. I...S...she...was taken by the Crown Prince guard at the wee hours and has yet been released since then."
I was surprised by her response.
'I guess we are right. There has been an occurrence that we had no idea about which we need to find out about' Aura's interest piqued up at this. I can't deny mine isn't as well.
I take a few steps towards her and stopped directly in front of her. "Why was she taken Lore?"
Looking left and right as though what she was about to tell me next was a secret, she took a step forward, "She wa
Hi guys, It's your favorite author once again. How are you all doing? I went your comments and I can't express how touched I am by them. I will keep sending you tons of kisses from here and again, don't forget to comment your thoughts about TWS, and please vote for it with your gems. It goes a long way for it. Like we darely need those gems coming in. XOXO
I turned to look at them as I was about to exit the chamber I glanced their way to read the expressions they had the minute I turned my back and smiled at them. I could not read Lore's expression because her face was at that moment schooled into that of a poker one giving me no room to study it. While the other lady-in-waiting, whose name I finally remembered to be Brigitta, had a look of excitement and surprise on hers. I could not also get a definite study of her expression because she might as well be faking the ones on her face. But I'm not too worried, I will find a way to fish the perpetrator out without alerting them. I walk out of my chambers in mind of finding my hiding mate first before heading to the training ground.
We sprinted to the palace without stopping hoping what I was thinking wasn't what will happen. On getting to the gate the guards there were surprised to see all of us running and became alerted but that didn't stop us as we continued running to the Queen's chamber. I don't know the way there since I've not had the opportunity to visit her at her chambers but followed Alexa's lead as she took turns in the corridors till her chamber came into view. Her guards became alerted at first as they heard hurried footsteps before they saw us that it was us and stood at attention. Getting close to them, Alexa shouted, "Is mother inside?" One of them quickly stepped forward and replied yes. When we got to the entrance, we didn't stop running for the guards to announce us or open the door for us. We just ran past them towards the door and pushed the door open ourselves. We entered the waiting area where the ladies-in-waiting were, an
"Try me." Now chuckling, "growing up, Rye and I were more like enemies or more like him not liking me and me doing everything to annoy the hell out of him. Every opportunity I get, I used to annoy him which was fun for me but to him, I don't know, but I will use a nuisance he will do anything to get rid of. I remember when we were in grade twelve, we just ended classes for that day and I was super bored and was looking for something fun to do and I spotted him ahead of me with his current girlfriend at that moment when an idea popped into my head. To me at that time it was fun but to him, it was one of the embarrassing moments of his life." She shook her head as she could not help smiling remembering their past. "I had just eaten a cholate bar and could not finish it and was about to trash it but thought otherwise and thought to use it to prank him. I squeezed the remaining chocolate in the wrapper and extended the crumbled chocolate into the burning sun so tha
I raised my lid at her, "Was it that awful?" Scrunching her nose, "I wouldn't say awful, but let me tell you this, my annoying him didn't end there and continued till we ended high school, and even after that, I looked for ways to annoy him. It went to the extent that he started avoiding me at every given opportunity he has which didn't stop me at all but instead made me determine to pester the hell out of him." "Wow...Alexa, you really are unbelievable. I can't blame the guy for avoiding you. If it were me I would do more than avoid you. I might even leave the pack because of you." "I know right? That was the extent I went. The funniest thing is that it bounced back at me when I got in trouble. That very day, I sneaked out of the palace to attend this newly opened clubhouse but the annoying me landed my ass in trouble with the vamps of all creatures, and couldn't find a way out of it on my own. My eyes widen when I heard this. There has
At this stage, I don't know if I should be more surprised than I already am. Asking why she ran would sound stupid since I could already guess why she did it. It was obviously because of the embarrassing situation in which they both found out and she probably thought he hated her since he didn't pick her calls. She shakes her head, "Nevertheless, It was Brice that was able to locate me using his ability as a tracker and when they came to get me where I was in a hotel room, he was among them. To cut it all short, since then, he never lets me out of his sight until now and that's because I promised him that I've changed and wouldn't do things on impulse." *** We got to the training grounds and put all discussions on hold and started with me warming up. After an hour of warm-up, Alexa told me to try summoning my shield the way she showed me previously first and see if I could do it before we do it the other way. Nodding at her, I clear my m
Looking up at my mate, I raised my hand to touch his chin, "I thought you weren't around. When did you get back?" I try to change the topic? Try to get my mind off from feeling down. I don't like the emotion that comes from being dejected. "Not quite long, My Amore." "We were on our way to check on you both when we saw the smoke coming from here." Rye chipped in. He still had his arm wrapped around Alexa not intending to let go of her at any moment. My mind went back to Alexa's words on what had transpired between the two of them in the past and couldn't help but smile. If someone doesn't have any idea of their past and personality saw them right now, would find it difficult to believe anyone that told them about it. My mate looked at the area that caught fire in the forest one more time before saying, "Let's go back to the palace. You can continue your training tomorrow." I nod at him and we all walk towards the Palace. I guess th
"But..." "There's no but in this. You being involved will endanger your life and that's the last thing I want for you. I will handle the case you just need to focus on your training." 'I doubt he will agree to this Ash' 'Relax Aura, he will.' Resting her head on her paws, 'Sure give it a try, and let's see how it goes.' I gave him a pleading look, "Zeid, I want to be involved. Literally speaking, I'm already involved in whatever plans Lady Anya is concurring because I'm your mate. Also, Mother Goddess created me for a reason and if I'm not ready or you don't allow me to be involved in minute matters such as this, how then will I be able to face bigger challenges that are yet to come." Giving him a reassuring looking, "I assure you that I will be extra careful and would not do anything that will endanger my life. Just allow me please..." Pinching the bridge of his nose, he finally agreed. "Alright, but on the condition that I'm
"That's the reason why I've not appeared before you to put you through your training." Nodding my head in understanding, "Alright Hera. That's a fault from my side. I should have called for you before now." I decided to not let her know why I didn't call for her before now. That's if she hasn't already known. "Hera, as you might have been aware of, I've been trying to summon my shield but hasn't been successful so far even when I tried it in a different way than Princess Alexa showed me, I ended up getting a small portion of the training forest ablaze. Do you know the reason why it is that I've not been able to do so properly?" "Yes, your highness. I believe that in your last attempt of summoning your shield, you focused on a different emotion instead of the one you are supposed to focus on." Thinking on her words, If what she's saying is that on the two different occasions when I summoned my shield unconsciously, I didn't do that be
