The Princess and her Alpha

Chapter 20 (Secrets)

After a very long night Rose finally went to her room taking leave for the night, hoping that Bion and his mother hasn't suspected anything yet, just to give her family time to get away from the danger and be save. Rose was tiered ,but decided to take a nice book to read while taking a long deserved bath , hoping that she will also be save from Bion and Nimra for the night,  but at least Nimra left early, so that was a good thing hopefully .Rose also told Derek they must not meet for they could be cought. And keeping their secret was now very important.

Secrets was hard to keep ,but it was easy in this situation because Rose knew they were standing against a great evil and had to simply di it, so Rose sat in her tub later telling her new handmaiden to go home for the night, then she took her book out and drifted into reading praying on the inside for strength and safety threw what was to come . The water was nice and hot and soon steam filled the room .Rose loved to read, but just then her reading was interrupted by this sudden bright light making her want to shut her eyes and she felt very scared sitting upright  ." Do not fear daughter , it's me your mother ".Jasmin says to Rose to ease Rose's fear. Rose is stunned in what she sees but calms a bit. "Mother is it really you ?".Rose asks" ,Yes my love and I came to tell you ,to warn you , my sister Nimra is onto you and your plans , but fear not , I will keep her at by until you are ready ". "Thank you mother. I miss you ". Rose say to a smiling Jasmin. 

"And I you child, you are my only afterall, and you poses my powers Rose, it will come to you if you need it, use it wise, and remember who you are always and if you ever need me just call on me Rose and I will come to you". She says and Rose feel a tear run down her cheek and as soon as Jasmin appeared she was gone again leaving Rose stunned at what she heard but always kind of knew there was something different about her and well that was why she loved nature more then normal humans did , so now she knew why. Rose then got out of the bath going to bed to sleep hoping tomorrow will come so she could see her family return home save and tell Bion to his face she knows of their secrets. Sleep came and soon morning arrived too.

 "Rose... Rose wake up love, we are leaving for home, be save and do not worry we will send all our men to help Prince Derek", Queen Aria and King Ferdinand says to their daughter while kissing her head. "I will …, but you be save too and remember to just keep going , do not return here , you hear me", Rose say and they Bothe agree even though they worry for her safety, but this must be as they planned or ells they could end up loosing this war. "Be save I will follow soon" ,Rose say hugging her parents as they leave in a hurry. Rose felt sad but knew this is how it must be done to keep them save. Then she got dressed to take on whatever was on her path.

At breakfast Bion seemed to happy and so as Rose sat he leaned in wanting to kiss his soon to be bride ,but Rose turned away from Bion making his blood boil, who is she to deny me?, he thought ."Is something wrong my dear Princess?" ,Nimra asks while walking in the room knowing her suspicions were correct seeing her spell has somehow been broken. But how?. Rose sees the look Nimra gives her so she thinks fast. "No Nimra , nothing is wrong I just don't feel to well today and it seems I had to much wine last night", Rose say feeling a bit on edge. "Rose why not then go and lie down a bit ?". Bion say but Nimra smirks this evil smirk. "No I am fine really , I just think we should take this slow for now", and talk later, so I can gather my strength", Rose dares to say, but Nimra do not like her tone so she storms over to Rose looking her in the eye. "You think we are dumb Rose, you will Mary my son and you will like it , your life is with him now , you hear me Princess?" ,Nimra spits angry and Bion also seems mad as he stands up. But Rose fights back, "No I shall not Nimra, you two have lied and killed people I loved and you want to use me against my own people, so no I will not do as you please, and I will never marry your son, I broke your spell Nimra and I will never marry Bion …,I love The Alpha Prince , he is my mate and he will come for me then we will destroy your reign!!!", Rose shouts and Bion slaps Rose so hard she falls back to the table looking to see her lip is bleeding and swollen from his hand." Call on your mutt my dear and lets see , and even if he comes he will not have you , Bion will, or will you ask for help from your human father? ,Nimra looks to Rose. "Your secrets are also out Rose, we will never let you go , you will wed Bion and then we will kill your beloved family of useless humans!!". "No I will not Nimra, I would rather die then be with him I love Derek and only him", Rose shouts back but Bion grabs Rose by the arm hurting her arm in the proses. "You will love me Princess and I will kill him infront of you, you are mine!!". Bion says while taking Rose by the arm out of the dining room , then walking down a dark corridor which she has not seen before. "Where are we going Bion, what are you doing?" ,Rose ask but he keeps quiet. "Answer me where are we going Bion?" .Rose almost shout , then he opens a door and it almost feel cold and then she realize its like a dungeon and so he walks to some cell putting her inside and then again closing the door. "Be good my darling and I won't hurt you to much , now rest I will come first thing in the morning to see you", He says then leaves Rose . "He will come for me you know this right?". "He can come Rose we are ready for him". he says while walking to his dark room getting ready for the ritual to remove her mark and replace it with his own warlock mark. Now Rose only hope her parents got home in time...

Derek (Pov) 

Something was very wrong , Rose did not meet him outside like she was supposed to  in secret. They found out what we knew and now she could be in danger and now they have my mate, while I am here. Derek was overcome with worry so he headed home instead to meet her fathers royal guards to let them train with his pack warriors and the vampires too at the emerald pack, not that he understood why the vampires wanted to help but he was happy to have their help. Rose just needed to be ok.

 Meanwhile in the high tower of the dark castle Nimra was also busy getting herself ready for the war that was coming and then she went to see Rose. "I see you are not scared of the dark after all". Nimra says to Rose and she gets up to see the witch. "I do not scare easy witch and once Derek comes for me you should be the one scared!!", Rose bites back shaking the bars of the cell. The old witch laughs. "They are no match for me and Bion child, neither was your mother". Rose frowns, "What do you mean, you... you killed my mother?" .Rose says feeling like she could brake this woman's neck. "Yes I did and she did not even put up a fight unlike you, she was to soft". "Yes I will surly show you once I am free, I will kill you myself witch, I might not be soft like her but I posses her power and also come to know I have a bit of yours too!". But before Rose can say any more the witch chant some words. "Adrobellow!!" and soon Rose falls to sleep while standing so Nimra lays her on the bed walking out. Rose was now under a sleeping spell until her wedding with Bion ,but what this witch did not think of was that Rose called on her mother as she fell asleep and now she waited …Bion was lived by Roses words making him very mad, he was power hungry and he had to make her love him, but he could not put more spells on her because his mother said it could  kill her so he planned on marking Rose himself soon. 

Derek tried to feel a connection with Rose but he could not, not like before, he had his pack training and prayed to the moon and nature goddesses to help them and Rose, Rose had to be ok and save. Their secret is out now and who knows what that witch and her son would do to Rose , at least he knew this Bion loves Rose even though it made him wane kill the bastered, which he will eventually. I will kill them all for taking my mate .So for now they will prepare for war ,starting tomorrow...
