Knight or King (Completed)

Chapter Fifteen

Waking up in the bathroom lost was the worst feeling in the morning. The whole night I struggled with sleep, I kept having nightmares and my time with Andrew. Sighing after I remember the events of last night I just lay there thinking. 

"Little Rose." Xavier sounds from the other side of the door. His voice sounds almost cautious as well as empty. 

"Please leave me Xavier. I can't do this. He doesn't believe, trust or even want me. I plan to leave once the babies are born. I will stay here only to maintain safety while I am pregnant, once they are born I am gone." 

"He needs time Rose, please don't give up on us." 

"I can't Xavier, I went through all of it before, my heart and soul can't take it anymore. Please just leave." I feel empty inside, I don't have a will anymore, the only reason I am still here is for my children. 

I hear him sigh before I hear him get up. "Rose, I'm going to talk to him to try and fix this. I will leave you alone for now, but we will be back to work this out." 

"NO! Please just let it go, I'm not cut out for this." I hear him sigh once more  before I hear him exiting the room. I remain in the bathroom for another five minutes before exiting. Once out I begin to gather clothes to shower. 

Once I have finished my shower I sit in the window seat with a book called "Our Story", the book was special it kind of reminded me somewhat of my life since it involves werewolves. The way he always took care of her not only that he was her best friend. It makes my heart yearn for something like that, a mate someone who is meant for me.

(The story mentioned above is an actual Wattpad story if you would like to go and look at it. I thoroughly enjoyed the book myself. )

I know it's silly, I mean if I were to have a mate then what Xavier said is true, I wouldn't have a free will.. Everyone has a choice and if mates were real then all it would do is take away my choice. Knocking sounds at my door bringing me out of my thoughts. 

"Luna, we have brunch for you." Comes an unfamiliar voice. My stomach growls letting me know I need to eat. Getting up walk over to the door and peek out. Standing outside the door is a petite brunette with bright green eyes. She looks worried as well as inquisitive. Opening the door more allowing her to enter I walk over to the couch where there is a coffee table sitting. I sit down and gesture for her to do the same. 

"Luna are you ok? 

"Hunny, I'm not the Luna, my name is Rose, me and the men have decided I wasn't best for their roles. Please just call me Rose. What's your name?"

"My name is Elizabeth, most people call me Lizzy." I look at her and can't help but smile, she seems happy here. "You do know that they aren't giving up right? They have taken a liking to you. Miranda in the kitchen has been trying to get them to choose her for almost 8 years, yet they refuse." She looks at me expecting me to reply. 

"I'm not the one for them, they can pick her all they want, they Hector doesn't want me." I look away with sadness. 

"He does though, more than anything, he wants to be with you believe me." 

"How am I supposed to believe you when I barely know you not only that but you don't know what awful things he said to me." 

"I do know though, I'm his best friend, I'm the one he came to when he was completely devastated over what he said to you and how he acted." 

"Please leave, I don't want you to come back here." I couldn't believe they were trying to have someone talk me into trying to be with them or trying to keep this going. 

The look on her face shows the shock and confusion she feels. "What?" 

"I don't want you to come back, I don't want them to try and change my mind by sending in their best friends to talk to me to see sense. I won't go down that path again you can leave. Tell them I will not be seeing them or anyone they are close to. I want someone who barely knows them to bring me my food please and thank you."

"You're serious?" 

"Yes now please leave." I can't believe they would do such a thing. She gets up and storms out of the room like I slapped her. Well guess what I wish that I could, but I can't do that to someone after that is all I've ever known. Looking at the food I begin to eat but the emptiness inside makes it to where I can't even taste it. 

Once finished I go back to my window and begin to read once more, later on in the day someone else drops off my food for me, they don't even talk to me they just walk in place the food tray and take the other one in return. I soon find I am tired and climb into bed. 

The next day is more like the later half of the day. Someone knocks and brings me food, but they don't say anything to me. I'm grateful for the peace and space. This routine continues for the next two weeks. I feel as though I am getting restless as of lately but I refuse to back down. I know I need fresh air but I won't put myself or my children in harm's way. 

Sitting here thinking over the past week and trying to think of a plan on how I will survive here until the birth I hear a knock at my door. Thinking it must be a food delivery I don't think anything of it when I tell them to enter. 

Entering the room with my tray of food is none other than Hector and Xavier.

"We need to talk." Explains Hector.
