The woman

Everything seemed fine so far until she showed up … Selena was here.

---------------------------------

Sitting on the edge of my bed she was until I growl in disapproval '' No female is allowed to be here but her, get the hell out of here - Now!'' She stands immediately and moves her hips toward me while speaking '' But babe, it's only me. No one is here but us.'' She finished with a wink.

I pushed her over until she was thrown to the next wall. '' I said no female is allowed to be here but her, and it's 'Your Highness' for you - you hear me'' I posed looking at her terrified figure as I decided to let her go '' Leave before I change my mind '' I order her not feeling that I can hold My Lycan any longer.

I throw myself on the bed, trying to get some peace of rest. The last few days were what anyone could define by 'hell' to me. Not to mention that I spent the last two days next to my mate's grave, still waiting for her to come back to me.

The only reason I'm not there next to her by now is that Logan wants some private time with his sister. Honestly, I don't feel quite good about it, but I feel that I owe him this favor. Something about my room is making my Lycan's a bit restless. I know - it's the smell of Selena in my room. Damn, I got to get rid of my bed now - and I hate this.

I let all my anger out on the bed that holds Selena's smell. After I finished, I throw what left of the poor thing out of the window.

I stood still looking from my window, only then I noticed that the weather had changed. Something doesn't feel right, and the restless feelings I used to have are getting even worse.

The beautiful sky was no longer beautiful as the fog decided to embrace each and every zone from it. The lightning finds its way to break the darkness, not to mention the deafening sounds of thunder that accompanied the lightning and seems to hit on its own drums.

I closed the window, not wanting to watch the horrors of the weather outside. Even the full life flowers seem way too dead by now, and the mighty trees that used to design the place garden look like fighting to hold their last strength.

I launched my eyes through the huge room I was in, the one located in the royal wing, the one designed by the best designers in the whole kingdom, the one decorated by the crystal in gold, and the one I grew up in, the one that looks more like a cave than home to me.

I know that I deserve everything happening to me; I earned it by my arrogance and coldness. All I need is a second chance, and I'm willing to change everything for the better. I can't stay here anymore. I need to leave this stupid room.

As I moved toward the door, one of the windows burst open, letting in the most beautiful smell I've ever smelt. She was finally here.

Elizabeth's point of view :

It was the time to say goodbye once and for all. As the shattered mirror cut the skin of my throat, darkness surrounded me, my vision started to blurry. All I could see back then was Logan who was running towards me hoping to stop me before it was too late, while that piece of shit next to him seemed to enjoy the show.

As the cut in my throat got deeper and deeper, I knew that it was finally the end, my end.

------------------------

A strong headache pulls me out of what seems to be a long term sleep. As I opened my eyes, I felt a bit lost at first, but then a wave of terrifying memories hit me. Fear finds its way to get through me, as the dark space I was locked in gets smaller and smaller.

A deafening sound screams from nowhere, I've tried to block the sounds by covering my ears, but it never seems to work.

I was trapped, and I felt that I lost the time track. I couldn't say if I was in the past, present, or future. All I know is that I can't handle this anymore.

Suddenly, everything stops. I was no longer lost in the darkness. Instead, I was in the middle of a beautiful garden. I felt safe for an instant; the sun was shining brightly while the sky looked perfectly peaceful.

A warm feeling embraced me, and for the first time since forever, I felt truly safe. Lost in my thoughts, I was till a figure that showed up. I don't know if I was stupid or brave, but all I know is that I was driving my feet toward the figure.

Step by step, my vision became clearer. And the figure starts looking like a woman in the middle of her age, a familiar one.

The hair, the face, the eyes, and even the lips, it all screams 'familiar'. It all seems locked in my brain, but something was stopping me from remembering who she is.

I stopped in my tracks, trying to figure out what was going on.

First: I killed myself, and for what?!! A man. Okay! He's not just a man, he's my mate. And 'yes' - I'd rather die than to be his toy.

Second: I woke up in darkness then moved on to what looked like 'Heaven'!!!

Last but not least: This gorgeous, familiar woman in front of me.

She didn't utter a word, but I felt like she was waiting for me to speak first. The painful headache paralyzed me for an instant before I could finally recognize the woman in front of me as my own lost mother...
