The Queen of Stars

Chapter 39

My legs loosen from around his waist and I slip to the ground, pulling him with me. Physically, I was completely exhausted and wanted nothing more than to just lie on the cool grass with his warm body next to mine. We Lay there for a while, not talking. He was stroking my hair softly and I was tracing small patterns on his chest. 

" I know what I did to you is deemed unforgivable." he whispers, his fingers were tangled in my hair and were massaging my scalp. I could feel Adora purring lightly at the back of my head, pleased with our mates intimate behaviour. " But I hope that some day in our forever you find it in your heart and soul to forgive me.... I want nothing more than for you to forgive me and for us to start new." 

" I want that too." I breathed the reply. And it was true, I wouldn't of marked him if it wasn't. " I want us to have a forever." and that was that. Now that we were marked I could feel his emotions, they were whirling around my heart making me feel gushy and warm. He was as content and happy as I was. After a while I obeyed Adora's quiet demands to be let free to run with her mate. We both knew that it was a matter of days until she would be my own Lycan beast, I just hope she doesn't change into somebody like Lucians beast.

"What's your Lycan's name?" I had asked after transforming back. We were making our way back to the castle  "He never told me."

Lucan stopped walking and looked at my thoughtful. "I call him King, because to the Other Lycan's that's what he is." 

" but what about your father?" I asked, confused.

Lucian passed me a sad smile. " My father lost his Lycan a long time ago. A ban of rebels came together in hope for destroying him, but my father is strong, they completely underestimated the kind of power and strength Lycan's possess, and the fact he's a king. He only lost his Lycan, which hurt like hell according to him. That's why he always...brooding. " 

" Do you know who the rebels are?" I ask. My hand snaked out to clasp his own. He used my action to his advantage, pulling me closer. I could feel my heart beating faster in my chest, a fluttering feeling and i could tell from his smug feeling  that he knew how his touch affected me. How just his presence could take my breath away and leave all my nerves on edge. 

" No we never found them. It wasn't too long ago now though, so they could still be out there. I once even had the theory that they would even be on this island, or they were." His voice was so soft as he spoke me, I almost felt like swooning. 

" So much for your super tight security system then." I remark. Taking a moment to look up at him. He just snorts. 

" Yea well ever since Leah was placed on the Island, some security has been slightly... lacking." 

" No kidding! I mean somehow my godfather snuck me in here no problem, and that pill? Whats that all about?" 

" What pill?" He asks, stopping me. Me pulls my arm whirling me around. " Stella what do you mean?" 

" The pill that she gives everybody who enters this Island? She gave it to my parents years ago when they came here with for that conference all those years ago. But they made sure I didn't take it. Then my Godfather warned me from taking it when she gave me one to take when I got here. Why?" 

" My parents never authorised any Pills." 

What now? My eyes widened. You can't be serious. Those pills could of been anything, they could of been poison. I remember that moment so clearly. I remember, remembering that moment even more. Leah never liked me. I looked up into Lucians eyes and told him, I told him everything that Leah had ever said or done to me. I also mentioned the two memories that came to me. 

I woke up. My mother was still stroking my hair, but she has stopped her singing. I remained curled in her lap and kept my breathing deep, i wanted them to think i was still asleep. Mummy was talking to someone. I take a peek at my father to see he was tensed, with anger flowing off him in ripples. Someone was talking to them. I could just make out their conversation.

" Miss Leah. We are needed at the palace in an hour. How do you think the king and Queen would act if they knew that you were keeping us from them? Or her from him?" My mothers voice was calm but i could tell inside she was raging mad. The young girl that Mummy was talking to didn't seem to care about how powerful she was.

"I really don't care about keeping HER from him. Plus she's not even allowed in here. " The girl sneered . " By orders of the queen and King she is. Who are you to defy them little witch." My mother snapped back. The witch narrowed her eyes at my mother. " Im in contact with the Palace of witches, do you really want them to know about her." She nodded her head towards me." My mother shock her head. " You wouldn't you won't." The girl just steps back from the car window. " Don't underestimate me wolf. You may continue but it will come at a price." She threw a glass box through the window containing three pills. My parents cautiously took them but left the third one in the box.

" Stella darling are you awake?" I heard the soft voice of my mother in my ear. I looked up at her and gave her a small smile. This was the first trip i had taken without Papa making me look different. I was excited and worry free, expect for that witch. She put me on edge.

I was in a sort of daze when i felt my father pull my from my mothers grasp and into his own comforting one. " Go to sleep again my darling we will be there soon." He whispered to me. So I did. 

" We need to go to her apartment. We need to find out what those pills are." I begged him. Lucian gave me a look, I knew he would rather not go back there, especially not with having heard this new information. But my Parents could be in danger. This whole damn city could be in danger. " Now Lucian!" I snap.
