Untie my heart

My new life with love Rogue Queen

It has been just over 4 months now that River and Hope have been safely in my care. Things are amazing! Lisa's spell is still going strong and River is none the wiser to the terrible mistake the mood goddess made.

While we have yet to mate and mark I am not bothered. River has been through hell and I won't rush him into it. Hope has adapted well and is now attending a rogue/human school near my territory.

The royals...well what's left of them, have been so busy mourning the loss of the king and rebuilding that they have not done anything to retaliate. I am more than prepared if that bitch tries anything but at this point I feel like my need for revenge has been fulfilled and I just want to run my pack and enjoy life with my mate and new sister.

As the weeks pass River and I have gotten really close. River makes me a better more  patient person and our love for one another grows stronger each day.

I am sitting in my office going over our latest earning reports when River knocks lightly on the door, "come in" I say not looking up.

"Hi babe", River says in a  cheerful tone, "you are working too hard, how about you play hookie for a bit and we go for a run?"

I smile widely before standing, "that my dear mate sounds amazing", I say!

River walks towards me and wraps me in a warm hug, "lets go let loose" he says while placing a small but sweet kiss on my cheek. My face turns slightly pink and I nod in agreement.

River and I walk to the woods and shift into our wolves. We run together for hours, chasing each other, playfully tackling one another until we eventually end up at a small lake near the edge of my territory.

We shift back and get dressed using the clothes we tied to our legs when we first shifted. Sitting side by side we are quiet until River begins to speak, "Rose do you know why Rebecca started killing rogues?"

I sigh before looking over to him, sadness is my eyes, "from what I gather, she got upset because a lawless rogue killed her father", I say faking a sad smile.

"Oh my goddess" River says sadly, "but still... to kill all of those innocent people I-I just can't wrap my head around it" he says.

I wrap River in a tight hug, "I know babe, she is just evil". I release the hug and look deep into Rivers eyes. "You are just too kind to see the evil that some people are capable of" I say while gently tracing my fingers over his jaw line.

I smile sweetly at him again, "when I arrived I was horrified", fake tears start to pool in my eyes, "b-bodies of innocent rogues were everywhere, I saw women and children torn apart, i -it was...... the worst thing I have ever seen", I finish with tears now falling down my face. "I-I just wish I could have made it sooner, I wish I could have done more", I say while sobbing.

River shakes his head and uses his hands to gently cup my face, "you did everything you could to help babe, never doubt yourself, you saved my sister.. me, countless other innocent people, you are a hero, you are my hero", he says while placing a tender, loving kiss on my lips.

My insides are jumping wildly but I keep a small sweet smile on my face as I lean in placing my forehead against his. "I am so grateful I made it in time to find you and Hope, new tears falling from my eyes, I don't know what I would have done if I found you guys too late".

I am pulled into a tight hug, "we will never have to worry about that again", River coos, while rubbing my back. "I just wish I could remember what happened... I keep trying to put the pieces together and I am no closer now than I was when I first woke up" River says with a slight frown.

I shoot him a warm smile, "it will come back to you babe, just give it time" I say.

River smiles brightly "okay okay no more deep shit today" River says laughing. "Want to go for a swim?" he asks.

I grin, "that sounds awesome", I exclaim! We spend the rest of the afternoon swimming and curled up in each other's arms at the side of the lake.

This is so much better than I could have ever hoped. My life is complete and for the first time ever I am truly happy.
