I wanted to stay in my bed for the whole of Sunday. I did not eat either. Didn’t feel well, Evan and Edwin tried to cheer me up with kisses, I wanted to keep them in my bed for the whole day, but that was selfish. I knew I had to be in there for my father tomorrow evening. Where else would I be, but in all honesty I was upset with him and my mother for lying to me. Knowing that Ruth was not my mother and the things she did to me, it hurt; I was in the hands of a Stanger and I’m scarred for it. I know hunters was more dangers, but how could they fight against my family?
“Lia, you can’t stay in bed all day, we can get out of here if you want.” Evan said placing tiny kisses on my shoulder, his arms around my waist. While Edwin was playing in my hair, my head resting on his well toned chest.
“Maybe a run will help you? I don’t like seeing you this way, and not being able to help you…” Edwin said. I needed to get out of there; a run will help me sort out my emotions. I forgive my parents, but I have not come to turns with who I am.
“A run sounds good.” I only replied in short sentences; I could tell it hurt them. “I’m sorry; your right a run will help.” I said with a small smile. It’s the only emotion I’ve showed all morning. I removed the covers from my body and got out of bed showing determination to get out of this room, as much as I wanted to jump back under the covers. I went into the ensuite washed my face and brushed my teeth. Evan was behind me holding my waist softly, and looking into my eyes through the mirror. When I was done, he wiped the face dry with the towel gently. When he was done, he walked me into the room. Edwin took my small waist so I was facing towards him. He put the vest top over my head and then went to freshen up with Evan, leaving me to finish dress myself. I took off my short shorts pyjama bottoms and exchanged them for my joggers which were set out for me on the bed. They came out of the bathroom dressed and took my hand in theirs. We walked through the castles; they took me a route which avoided my parents which I was happy for.
As soon as we reached the garden, they took me to the back out of anyone’s view, where we stripped. I focus on my wolf form, thinking of my body transforming into the wolf inside. I felt my body change; It was not a painful transformation. My mates were bigger than me; they were majestic wolves soon to be king. Of course they were bigger than me. They had pure black fur; their eyes were green, one dark and one lighter shade just like in their human form. They were handsome. They came to me and licked my fur and my face in an affectionate way, which made me lean into their touch. My wolf loved the feeling and didn’t want to be anywhere else.
“You ready.” Evan’s pure silky voice said in my mind. My wolf early fell to the floor at the sound.
“Yeah.” I nodded.
“Just stop when you are tired, we will be with you.” Edwin voice sent shivers through my wolf. I went to them and licked their cheeks, brushing my fur against them; my white fur against their royal black. I took off into the forest. Passing them though I knew they were holding back.
I let my mind wonder back to theses few days. I jumped over roots, ran around the beautiful trees that surrounded the castle. I thought about how my Judy was my mom, and how it must have hurt her to give me away. Giving me to a stranger, who abused me after treating me well, up until my father broke a promise must have hurt. Not knowing where I am because Ruth took me away from my father, which led me to live my life on the run, not trusting anyone. I felt bad for feeling hurt, when it must have hurt more to lose your baby.
Then I thought about my father, when he left me it must have broken his heart. He knew my mother could not have come with him to visit me. Being the only parent to see me, and holding in his emotions to spare his wife. I stopped running and curled up into a ball, letting the tears flow. My mates noticed that I had stopped. They surrounded me, lying on the grass and dead leaves, protecting me from any harm because I am vulnerable. Their fur pressed against mine, bringing comfort and warmth to my cold body.
I needed to see my mother.
“I’m ready to go back.” I told them. They licked my fur again.
“You ready?” they asked at the same time.
“Yes. Thank you.” I told them. Evan rubbed his nose against mine while Edwin continued to lick my white fur. They got up with me and we ran back side by side. When we got back into the castle grounds, we found our clothes again. I focused on my human side. Once I was back I grabbed Evan and kissed him hard. I grabbed Edwin and kissed him too. This is when I noticed we were all naked. Covering my eyes I blushed and rashly put on my clothes. I ran without them to the room to take a shower, leaving them chuckling behind me.
When I came out of the shower, I put on normal clothes. I walked around the castle looking for my mother, and could not find her. I was wondering why I could not sense her for a bit.
“Hey Lia, how are you?” Bob asked me.
“I’m good, have you seen mum?” I asked him tired from walking around the castle.
“Yes she is in the kitchen.” He said. Before he finished I was already off calling thank you over my shoulder.
I walked into the kitchen, to find my mother sitting around the table with her glasses on reading a book in the corner. I went to grab a fruit on the counted and sat on the chair next to her. When she noticed my presence, she looked up from her book, smiling brightly when she noticed I was no longer sad.
“Hey mum.”
“How are you feeling?” she asked me.
“I’m good, how are you feeling?” I asked back. She stood up, took my hand pulling me up. She then crushed me in a hug breathing in my scent.
“I’m better now. Do you want to go into the garden and talk, it’s crowded in here with all the chefs getting ready for your fathers birthday and crowning tomorrow.” She told me. I nodded, she took my hand and we walked into the garden, and sat on the swinging chair. We both smiled.
“I’m sorry for last night. I should not have run out like that on you.” I told her looking at my hands firmly in my thighs. She took my chin and guided my eyes back into hers.
“Don’t worry baby. I would have done the same if I found out this. And everything piled on you for the whole of this week. Ruth kicked you out, you found your mates, said goodbye to your best friend, met your father after years, and found out that you have brothers, and that I’m your mother. I would have been feeling the same. I understand what you’re going through… although; you recovered faster than I would.” She said laughing at the end. I laughed with her.
“Yes, this week has been hard, but I’m getting though it, my mates are there for me, so I’m happy.” I told her. She smiled.
“Soon, you would be training to be the queen of the world of werewolves, and I would be the queen of England.”
“Training?”I asked confused.
“Yes, although you would not need to go through that much, you already have all the attributes of a queen, you just need help finding them. Though, when you fully mate you would change. In a good way. Oh, we could talk about this later.” She said as I blushed.
“Firstly we need to get you fitted for your dress.” She exclaimed as if she just remembered.
“But I have not gone shopping.” I told her.
“Darling, I picked one out for you. You just need to get it fitted. You are going to be presented the king and queen’s daughter. Everything has to be perfect.” She told me.
I loved the sound of that. She took my hand and dragged me back inside. She led me into a room I have never been in before (which was not a shock). It where she prepared… like a beauty room filled with hair driers, straighter, makeup and the list went on. I saw her two stunning dresses in the middle of the room.
“This one is yours.” She said. My eyes went wide, my mouth opened. It was silk, in a beautiful red. It flowed all to the ground; it was not the puffy type, instead in flowed. The tailor came into the room. She bowed her head at us. She had brunette hair and was pretty short, about late 20’s.
“Jenifer designed the dress.” Mum said.
“It is beautiful!” I told her finally closing my mouth.
“Thank you misses. Would you like to try it on, so we can get it to fit perfectly?” she said.
“Sure! …Can you pass me my dress please?” I asked kindly after entering locker room finding I forgot the dress.
“Here you are, be careful while putting it on.” She told me. I could see why I should be careful. The silk was expensive and beautiful. It looked as if you needed gloves to handle it. I slid it over my head and guided it into place. I opened the curtains and walked out.
“You look beautiful Lia.” My mum said.
“Only in need a few adjustments.” Jenifer said, smiling at her creations.
“I’ll leave you two to it. I need to do some chores.” Mum said walking out.
…
It was evening; it took a while to get the dress perfect in Jenifer’s eyes. It was like she worked magic, I had to stand for some time, but it was worth it. I felt a need to find my mates. That’s where my legs led me.
“Hey, we missed you.” Evan said, finding me before I found him.
“I’ve just been fitting my dress for tomorrow evening.” I told them walking to them and hugging them. I needed their touch.
“Your mom said so. Dinner is ready now, you must be hungry.” Edwin said.
“Yeah, what did you guys do?” I asked them while walking to the dining room.
“We called back home. My sisters are coming here tomorrow, for your father’s coronation. Our father and mother would not be able to make it, although they send their love.”
“I cannot wait to meet them. ” I told them, but nervous. What if they didn’t like me, what will happen then?
“They are dying to meet you too, my mother always wanted us to find a mate, and she is so happy that we did. Don’t be nervous.” Edwin told me.
“How did you know I was nervous?”
“Our bond is growing.” Evan told me. We got into the dining room, everyone was there apart from my brothers. After they came, we ate. My dad seemed happy, that I was not mad at him anymore and for that I’m glad. Because of the Luna in me, had a caring nature, which meant that I did not like causing anyone hurt. Everyone around was making their normal conversations.
When dinner was over, my brothers left dining room swiftly, my mates and I went to the movie room to watch a film: fast five. it was an old film, but I loved all the others and never got to see this one. I was not a girly girl, but I was a tomboy either. Action films are just awesome. When the film was over, my mates took my hand and led me outside. It was chilly, but they were next to me, their body radiated heat.
I was not tired; we walked silently to the closest lake. Evan had his arm firmly around my waist giving me heat, while leaving tingles. Edwin had his around my shoulder, he placed a kiss on my temple, causing me to smile and close my eyes, just being in the moment.
“I love you.” I told them. I waited a while to tell them, I did not want to rush into it. I loved them from the moment I saw them, but this just seemed like the right time to tell them. I looked up at them and saw them smiling. Evan kissed my lips, soft yet passionate, while Edwin kissed my neck getting near his mark on my skin, sending tingles down to my toes. Then they swapped, Edwin captured my lips, more in a rough nature, while Evan softly placed kisses on my neck. He got to his mark, and licked it. I felt as If I was going to die from pleasure.
They let go of me, pulling me out of my trance. I breathed hard trying to calm myself down.
“I love you too.” Edwin and Evan said at the time. It was my turn to smile like I was an idiot. I placed a soft kiss over their cheeks.
“It’s been a long day. We should head back to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a long day.” I told them.
“Let’s go. You look tired, the amount of emotions you have had today must be overwhelming.” Edwin said placing a kiss on my temple.
We walked back to the palace. This place looked beautiful at night time. Tomorrow would be a new day…
Things will get better, even better, I can no more smell Ruth. She must have been put into jail after a trail.
