Chained Hearts

She's Back

" You goat looking monster!" I scream as David takes my ice cream and walks away eating it.

" Thank you lovely person." He mumbles as he shoved my vanilla banana spilt in his mouth and moans.

I roll my eyes and start imagining how satisfying it would be to just drop kick him. Soon my dark thoughts come to a halt as Alexander walks in looking more delicious than the ice cream.

" Hey baby, how are you feeling?" This is the question I have been getting asked everyday for the past week ever since I came back from the doctor. My injuries had healed and I feel like the old me again.

The only down side is that I have a light brown scar going across my abdomen but that does not really bother me. It is a symbol of what my life and pack is about, we fight to defend and protect our own.

" I am fine." I say and I emphasize the word 'fine'. He just smiled and takes a seat on the black couch next to me with his muscular arms around my waist.

Even though we have touched a countless amount of times I still feel sparks surge through my body.

Raven, mom and dad soon walk in the living room with smiles on their faces as they see the family finally in the same room once again. Raven came back the day after the incident and at first she was in deep worry for me but when she learned what happened I saw an angry side that even made me a bit scared. Mason even was concerned for me and thought I was gonna die. Over the top but sweet.

" As alpha of the pack I have set out Dark Moon pack to the western side of the boarder and our own pack members to the north since that is the only other way they can enter our territories." My Dad declares and pack members slow down what they are doing to listen.

Dark Moon pack and our pack are in an agreement that in times of danger or war we look out for the other, the main reason behind this is because it is the pack my mom was in before she had met my father.

" That's great Alpha." A pack member says as he enters the living room fully and my dad smiles in reply.

" Ava for your safety we believe it is best for you to move into the castle now. The person who attacked you may target you next time and also it is time for you to start getting prepared to be queen." Mom says as she takes a seat near me and holds my hand.

A few weeks ago those two sentences would have gotten me frightened but today I feel like I do need to head into the castle now, yes there is always a fear of failing but I am willing to finally accept my title as queen and move with Alexander. I want to start a new chapter of my life with him.

" Your right." I agree with mom and Alex kisses my cheek.

" Well, I guess we should start packing tomorrow and Raven will be heading back there with you." Dad says and Raven nods. Mason is back at the castle taking care of things and I can see how much she misses him.

I feel butterflies in my stomach but not from worry, but it is from excitement and thrill of what is to come next.

The Queen is rising.
