MARINA'S POV

I don't know how to feel. My body is completely numb while Luke holds me, rocking us back and forth slowly, mumbling calming words into my hair incoherently.

"What if she finally breaks?" I asked sadly, my body melting into Luke's strong hold, he sighed and I could feel his hold tighten around me, his beautiful scent consumed me completely.

"Only time will tell, and she is too strong, the Princess has been through a lot - or so I've heard - but she is too strong, too strong." He replied, I could sense how serious he was and maybe he's right - Celine had once told me she lived a complicated life, and maybe she's has gone through a lot.

But no one is too strong, everyone has a breaking point.

I shook my head and placed my hands over Luke's, while letting out a content sigh; he mumbled something about loving me and it made my stomach churn.

"I-I just hope she stay's strong, that she manages to get through what's going on." I whispered with a frown, my heartbeat was steady but my nerves were only growing.

"You know what? Enough talking about Celine, let's talk about us." Luke said, I narrowed my eyes in confusion and licked my dry lips.

"Us?"

"Yes, me and you. I want to know what happens when your brother goes back to his Pack. Will you feel comfortable staying here?" He said, I gulped and felt my body shrink, I didn't really think about that.

"I don't know." I whispered in defeat, and I honestly don't because my whole life is back at BloodLine; I am in fact the Alpha by my actual bloodline and I might be needed back home.

Especially if Celine goes back.

"Can you come to my Pack? You could become a warrior there." I said, turning my whole entire body around awkwardly to face him; his lips were in a thin line and his shoulders were slouched as he pondered over my words.

His dark hair laid messily over his head and was slightly tipping forward since his head was hanging to look at me.

"I don't think I can Marina, all my duties are here." He stated, his head going to the side and taking his hair with his movements, I sighed and shook my head, my hands going over his shoulders.

"Well, if you leave this Pack and come to mine, your duties will be there, they don't always have to be here." I said, an ounce of hope churned inside me as he gazed at me curiously; I rubbed his shoulders reassuringly.

"Also, I really just want to be there for Celine because if I'm not there, whose going to be there for her?" I whispered, my lips falling into a frown - he sighed in defeat and tightened his hold on my waist comfortingly, this time I sighed while the skin covered by a thin fabric burned from the feel of his large hands.

"Alright, if the King allows my leave, then we shall go. If not, then I will not disobey my King's orders, I owe him my life." He said seriously, my heart skipped a beat and my lips tugged up into a wide smile, my eyes widened as well and he chuckled.

"I love you so much!" I yelled out, he was about to say it back but I cupped his face and quickly covered his mouth with my own; showing him how thankful I am.

He smiled and his hold only tightened, sparks were shooting all around us and I felt so content; if only Celine could have this.

CELINE'S POV

I can't be mad at them, its not their fault, right?

I'm a mother, a terrible one. It's my own fault.
