Rain's P.O.V. They rushed my criminal court hearing so that I could go to the council trial sooner. The lawyer Nate got for me was great! He had so much evidence and many statements from police reports and past cases proving Stefan had kidnapped others before. He showed proof of Charle' injuries and how they were sustained by Stefan. He told them I was only defending myself and my mate. He had to explain the importance of a mate to the judge as he was human. The judge looked over everything and since the people agreed, it was ruled as self defense. I was let go that afternoon into the custody of the council. I went from one jail cell to another. I at least got to eat something before the council took me. I thanked my lawyer and asked him to thank Nate for me. I hadn't heard from him since they took me in last night. Nate was right. The criminal proceeding went smoothly as it was just self defense. Now came the hard part, the scary part. I needed to prove my actions were just, and

We left the dungeon like cells and traveled up a corridor. The halls are made of marble and have red carvings throughout. The carvings ranged from past council members, to past scenes of wars, to the current council members. The originals of each species were painted on the columns. The whole place was full of history. If I wasn't heading to possible death, I would find this place more alluring. It really was beautiful. We came to two large dark wood doors. Two guards posted outside of them opened them for us as we entered slowly. The room was large with a tall semicircle desk at the top. There was a small table at the center for Nate and I to sit at. It was made to make the person at the table feel intimidated, having the council look down at them from above. Nate gave my hand a squeeze as we got to the table. The council members were already seated. There were 8 chairs total, but only 7 members sat. I knew the empty chair was Stefan's. Evandrus looked down at me, if he was on my s

Trying to sentence me to death? I thought Evandrus was supposed to be trying to help. I knew he was a snake but didn't realize how slippery he was. There went the small hope we had."So she is of Lancaster blood, but that doesn't prove that Stefan had plans for her." The dwarf stated."We have proof of that as well, but we need Rain's memory to be played." Nate stated with confidence. It seemed he had a quick retort to any doubt thrown our way. Nate was doing an amazing job even before having a year of college under his belt."Maudie, use your spells and reveal her memories unto us" Stoic ordered the witch. He watched Nate cautiously, as if warning him that this had to work or else."Yo

Stoic looked down at us, something crossed his face for just a moment before vanishing. I think it was sadness, but it was hard to tell. "Rain Lancaster and Nate Viseron, please stand for your sentencing." I was slightly confused as to how he worded that. It sounded as if Nate was being sentenced too. Nate grabbed my hand, giving it a gentle squeeze for comfort. "Rain Lancaster, since Stefan planned to use you to hurt werewolves we are not sentencing you to death. However, because you were unaware of his plans at the time of the murder you are still guilty. You will serve the council in all matters as needed for the next 10 years as punishment. Nate Viseron, for your hand in this matter your wings will be clipped." My heart sank. Nate was being punished for having represented me. He had done such an amazing job, but I had no idea he would be punished for it. I wouldn't have let him do it otherwise. I looked at him with tears in my eyes. "Nate." I whispered weakly as my hand went o

We arrived on campus within 20 minutes. My ears were still ringing from the wind blowing in them the whole way. Nate kept me safe in his arms while we flew. I was happy to get to see the sights, it was a nice distraction from everything that had happened the past couple of days. Honestly I felt like we got very lucky considering the situation. Nate landed near the commons in the field. Everyone of course stared at us for a while even after we landed. Nate looked a mess with his torn shirt and I probably didn’t look that much better. I was sure my hair was probably a big mess after being blown in the wind so long. I brushed it down with my hands as best I could. Nate tried to help too. He was almost like this older brother I never had. He looked out for me, and risked his life defending me to the council. I owe him a lot. “Rain!” I heard someone call out. “I am so happy you’re okay.” Kaitlyn said as she hugged me. I had heard she helped in my rescue, but didn’t want to get caught up i

I was enjoying Charles' company, just laying in bed naked together. Charles looked deep in my eyes as he stopped playing with my hand and interlocked our fingers together. "I have to tell you something." He said and my stomach instantly knotted up. "The reason I let you go, back at the fairy pool, was because I couldn't mate with you then. I knew you wanted to be mated, but I couldn't bring myself to do it just yet. I wanted to wait to make you mine. I wanted you to be successful in all your studies, undistracted by me. I was also worried that I would keep you from your elf side and duties when we discovered you are technically a princess. Star said that it was hard to take power if you're already mated." His voice sounded small.I could tell he was still beating himself up for letting me go. I placed my finger over his lips, gently shushing. "It doesn't matter. You did it now. Although I could just slap you for it. I don't care about being a princess, Charles. That's not me. I didn'

Charles returned home with an assortment of foods and I devoured them all. My stomach felt a lot better and so did my body. Charles and I talked a while before heading to bed. "You know you're more advanced than the freshman classes you're taking. You could test out of them and get the credit. You'll graduate a lot sooner like that." Charles explained to me. "You really think I could test out of them?" I was sure I could but I wanted to hear him say it. It was nice knowing he thought I was so intelligent. "I'm sure you can." He said and I smiled real big at him. "It'll be too late to sign up for more advanced courses this semester but you could test out of the classes you're in now, aside from the lab, and you'll be more available to learn elvish magic and history. I feel like you could use a semester getting to know that part of you. You could also see if you have any witchy potential." I smirked at that. " I think that's a really good plan. I'll talk with my professors about it t

I could feel my heart in my throat. I was about to meet my mate's father. I was about to meet an alpha of the original 10. I swallowed hard as Charles creaked the door open slowly. I took a deep breath walking in behind him. I tried to keep my head up high. I didn't want his father to think I was weak. "What are you doing back? Have you finally come to your senses?" Charles' father asked and I almost gasped in surprise. I can't believe his father would greet him that way. My father would have greeted us warmly with a smile and probably a hug. I didn't understand these powerful dad's I've been meeting here lately. "I've come to show you the labors of my hard work. I've also come to introduce you to my mate." Charles responded flatly. If his father's words had hurt him, he didn't let it show. "I don't care what you've done at that college, Charles. Your duty is here to the pack. You need to return home and take your rightful place." His father sounded annoyed and he completely skipp
