-HER-
My body shakes as sobs make their way out. Tears freely flow down my cheeks as I clutch on my mouth to avoid making any noise.
I hate Arles , I hate him more than anything else in this world. I curse myself for marrying him , he is an evil man. A really bad man.
" Baby , you're still crying about it ?" Arles asks softly placing his hand on my shoulder.
I let out a little grumble smacking his hand away from me.
" Come on Queen , don't do this to our King." Willy says from the driver's seat.
" Babe , I'm so sorry." Arles mumbles removing a few strands of hair from my face.
" No. You promised to take me on a vacation. You promised to take me to take me to the beach. You promised to take me for a camp. But now , you cancelled all of them and we're going to meet some stupid king here." I whine punching his chest as he let's out a little chuckle.
" Baby , King Eric and we need to sort some things out. If it wasn't important than I would never cancel our plans. Please try to understand." he mutters as I pout still giving him angry looks.
" Then why cant he come ? It's his issue not ours. Whenever something happens everyone comes to you , you never go to them." I grumble as Willy bursts into laughter.
" William." Arles gives him a pointed look as he stops laughing immediately.
" Baby , think about it on the positive side. The western region is having winter in this time of the year. We'll have a good winter vacation." he smiles .
I leave pouting and grumbling for a minute to think about his idea. It barely snows here and a snowy weather with Arles would be so amazing.
" Yupsie , I wanna go." I chirp giving him a big grin.
Arles let's out a huge sigh as Willy burst into a laughter again.
" But you know , King Eric's Queen would be so lucky to have him. He stays at his kingdom and calls whoever he wants. They never have to travel long distance." I mumble making designs on the window as it rains heavily outside.
Arles and Willy both fall silent for a second before Willy let's out a sigh.
" She wasn't lucky Queen. But she was the most unfortunate Luna ever." Willy says.
Turning my gaze away from the window I look at him confused.
" King Erik before was an Alpha.He had r*ped his mate and beaten her nearly to death after he got to know that she was cheating on him. Later he banished her." Willy says as a loud gasps leaves my lips.
" It doesn't end there , due to family issues she came back and he got to know that she was carrying his pup which was a three year old boy by then. He still didnt accept them. One day he asked for his pup's custody but his Luna didn't give it. So he had beaten her mercilessly , I've met a few people of that pack , her screams were heard in the whole pack but no one came to save the poor soul. Later he r*ped her and locked her up in a room , bloodied and beaten up. She committed suicide in the same room." Willy mutters.
Arles slowly wipes my tears which I didnt know were falling and hugs me to comfort my shaking body. I clutch onto Arles as sob wreck through me. My heart aches for the poor Luna.
" What's the most saddest part is that after her death , everyone got to know that she never cheated. She was ab*sed. " Willy sighs.
" King Eric is a monster." I sob jumping into Arles' lap.
He kisses my forehead and wraps his arms around me comforting me.
I slide my fingers on his face and caress his face slowly. I'm indeed the lucky queen to have Arles with me who has never even raised his voice at me let alone the thought of doing the heinous deeds King Eric has done to his wife.
" You okay now baby ?" Arles mumbles caressing my hair.
I let out a giggle hiding my face into his neck as he chuckles.
" William roll up the partition please." Arles says as I blush knowing the reason of it.
Willy clears his throat in a teasing manner and laughs loudly before rolling it up.
Arles places his finger under my chin and lifts my face up.
" You're so adorable." he smiles placing his lips on mine softly.
I moan at the cotton candy like soft and sweet lips on mine. He groans wrapping my legs around his waist as I tug on his silky brown hair.
" Arles." I let out a moan as he unbuttons his shirt before throwing it on the car floor.
I close my eyes roaming my hands on his warm skin. He takes off my hoodie leaving me just in my bra before he begins planting wet kisses down my neck.
" F*ck , you're always so sweet baby." he mumbles as I hum in response not really trusting my voice at this moment.
I clutch onto his shoulders as his fingers begin undoing my bra hooks when the car suddenly stops.
" King , Queen we're here. Please kindly get decent before I open the door." Willy says in a teasing way.
Arles laughs picking my pink crop hoodie up and making me wear it again as I pout sadly at him.
He chuckles kissing my pouting lips before wearing his white crisp shirt.
Willy opens the door at that moment and drags me out while Arles was wearing his black blazer.
I glare at him and jump on his feet deliberately as he let's out a howl.
" Not my fault that your romance got disturbed Queen." he chuckles ruffling my hair.
Turning my head away from him , I look at the huge castle in front of me. It was as big as Arles' castle but instead of the light colors , this had dark and disturbing colors on it.
The trees nearby didnt had any leaves but were just standing on the branches which appeared black.
" He is the cursed King. After what he did to his Luna , he is cursed of not having any happiness and he accepted it. He doesn't try to change anything because he knows he needs to live this punishment." Willy says understanding my confusion.
Arles steps out of the car smiling at me. I ran into his arms and place my head on his chest.
" This place is creepy." I mumble tightening my hold on him.
" It's alright love. I'm here with you." he says.
A man runs towards us with a huge smile on his face. He has blonde hair and baby blue eyes which sparkled because of him smiling. So far , he is the only living thing which seems bright to me.
" Good evening King Arles. I'm Logan , King Erik's-" he suddenly stops and stares at me with wide eyes.
I look at Arles who is giving this man a glare of which he is unaware of. Ignoring Arles and Willy he stares at me intently making me shift uncomfortably.
Arles let out a loud roar making him jump.
" Look at my Queen again and I'll pluck your eyes out feeding them back to you." He growls as the man nods but looks at me again.
Willy wriggles his eyebrows controlling his laughter at the man's stupid acts.
" This way King." he says leading us in the castle.
" King Eric is away because of some matters but he will be back soon." he mutters as Willy lets out another growl.
" Our King came all the way here and your king isnt even here to greet us. He is not any little alpha , he is the king and he has been ruling before your king was even the alpha so you guys better learn to respect him." Willy growls as Logan nods nervously.
" I understand sir but King Eric has gone to his old pack to get his family here. He will be back soon and I assure you that disrespecting King Arles is something we will never think of." Logan mutters bowing his head.
" You better because anyone who thinks of disrespecting my king , doesn't live to see the next sunrise." Willy growls.
" Yes sir. Umm , King Arles' your room sir is the the third floor. The third floor has only two rooms , one is King Erik's and the other one has been given to you. " Logan mumbles pointing at the stairs.
" And sir William , your room is on the second floor." He mumbles as William curtly nods.
" Make room for ten more people. Our king's warriors and ministers are also on their way." Willy says.
" Its already been done sir. King Arles , King Erik has requested you to join him for dinner tonight." Logan smiles as Arles nods.
" Let's go." Arles whispers leading me towards the stairs.
Logan walks into the opposite direction from us as Willy joins us.
" You shouldn't be so rude to him Willy." I mumble clutching on Arles blazer as we walk up the stairs.
" He deserved it Queen. I cant believe no one came to greet King. It's such a huge disrespect. King Erik really has no value of precious things just like he didnt value his Luna." Willy spears angrily.
" William , that's enough. We're here to sort things out not declare a war." Arles mumbles calmly.
" Yeah. Good bye King and Queen." he smiles bowing before walking in a room.
Arles and I begin walking again as my mind goes back to Willy's words. How can someone be so cruel to punish his own Luna in that way ? Didnt his hands shake while beating her ? Didnt his heart ache while r*ping her ? Didnt his esteem drown in guilt when she took her life because of him ?
Arles twirls me around and picks me up in bridal style. I giggle as he smiles walking slowly.
" Arles , I dont like it here. When can we go back ?" I mumble as he chuckles.
" We just arrived here baby." he smiles.
" I still dont like it here." I pout.
" It wont take long baby. First I need to hear what he has to say then the amount of time it takes of solve the issue is what will hold us back." he mumbles.
Indeed the third floor had only two doors opposite to each other and in the middle it had a balcony and a couch with cute pillows settled on it.
We take the door which is open. Arles places me on my feet as we walk in. The room was nice with black and white theme. I smile at the white orchids and roses placed on the table.
Arles takes out a rose and secures it on my hair kissing my cheek.
" Its pretty isnt it ?" I smile looking at the mirror which shows the white flower adorning my hair.
" Not as much as someone in front of us." Arles smiles hugging me from back and placing his head on my shoulder.
I blush deep red as his comment and bite my lips.
" I'm talking about myself." he says. My smile immediately vanishes as I look up the mirror to see him smirking.
" I was talking about myself." he laughs as I punch his shoulder.
" I'm going to take a bath. You can stay here and admire your pretty self." I grumble walking in the bathroom.
" Hurry up baby. I'll take out a gown for you. We have to go for dinner with Erik." Arles mutters as I nod walking in.
Unintentionally , the idea of meeting the man who caused his own Luna to kill herself didnt set quite good in my tummy but there isn't something I can do about it.
It will happen as it's meant to be no matter how someone tries to change it.
