Chapter three , Part II | The Cause.
[After two weeks]
“My queen, everything is ready for after tomorrow.” Ciel spoke, his eyes showing concern for the pale queen.
Her complexion was no longer as brown as she used to be, instead she was as white as snow, he couldn’t help but flinch imagining how difficult must that potion must’ve been to change her significant chocolate skin.
She only hummed, not feeling the need to use words at the moment. Her heat haven’t gone yet, she couldn’t even move her body too much or the pain would strike her like lightning.
She eyed Ciel hoping he would understand what she want to ask about, she couldn’t be more relaxed as she hears his reply.
“If you’re asking about if this idea would work, then I promise you it will have their snots confused. They wouldn’t dare come near you.”
“Good,”
Ciel flinched yet again as he hears her voice crack at that one word, he felt worse. If his queen mated with a rare wolf her suffering would vanish in no time, but if she continue to refuse it, she would suffer more than this.
He already told her what he read in the old book that he had found, dug in his library. Though, she refused.
“Stop.”
He flicked his eyes up to meet hers. They used to shimmer with adoration, but what he saw was gray like orbs. Her body was starting to change and soon she wouldn’t last longer. “I can’t.” He mumbled.
How could he dare stop worrying about her ? How could he do that to her when she was the last person to accept how young he looks yet saw him as the man he was ? How could he stand there watching her life being sipped away from her just because her pride was stopping her from saving herself?
He couldn’t, and he will never stop.
And that’s why, tomorrow he will be the one who is going to help her revive her old self.
“I’ll take my leave my queen, I’ll continue the preparation for tomorrow.” He quickly dismissed himself, before she could sense what he was thinking.
She eyed Ciel’s leaving the room, she couldn’t stop shaking with anger as she remembers what he said two weeks ago, after he found the most old werewolf books he ever had in his library.
He was shaken up by what he discovered, his eyes were glazing with tears. “Your highness,” his breath was ragged, voice filled with panic and sadness. His eyes full of anger. “It’s said that if a werewolf doesn’t mate with his mate as soon as they meet, the mate will feel uncomfortable heat under her stomach, and much more until she mate with him.” He then took a deep breath before looking away from her and said as his voice crack with each word “ If the mate doesn’t find his/her mate within a certain age, the female would go under uncontrollable pain under her stomach, the male would feel empty and pain of not finding his mate.”
He breathed out, body still shaking. Cheeks stained with tears, “The book says, if they didn’t meet after two hundred years or reject one another, they will go under a huge pain and a lot of changes until th-they d-die.”
She could remember how her heart stopped bumping the blood into her system, her eyes wide open. Shestillfelt the shock of what Ciel had said.
She was hunted by those words. She only had gotten the throne for only two hundred years and thirty. Yes, she was bored of giving orders to whoever near her or far, or even staying on this old throne for a hours while her plumb hump becomes flat.
Most importantly, her parents killer was yet still to be discovered! She won’t let those filthy mess of enemies get this throne with ease!
Her eyes glazed at the freshly cleaned floor as her brain gears works a solution for such a mess.
It took her little time to figure out a way to survive her death.
“Alexander.” Her throat hurt her as she try’s to speak to the shadow figure who took no time appearing in front of her. “Go provoke those filthy creatures, and make sure they seek the Royal wolves help and please do sent them an invitation card for the ball after tomorrow.”
Alexander’s eyes were hesitant as he nod, he wasn’t found of the idea at all but he couldn’t say no to her grace. “I’ll make sure they bringthemhere by tomorrow’s morning.”
