Fated Bonds; The Lycan Chosen Queen
“I can only be the villain for you. Never to you” “I don't care…because I would do the same” Althea said with a slight smirk on her lips. *** All her life, Althea wanted a simple life. She had the love of her life and she would have his kids. But everything changed when he broke her heart. The King of Elodonia is now looking for a mate. One to be his queen and wife. Althea prays she would not be chosen but unfortunately fate wasn't on her side. But who said the king was looking for a queen? No, he was looking for his next plaything and he may have found his victim in the heart of a young woman. Life wasn't a bed of roses, so don't expect fluffiness in the castle.
Chapter 27
Cassandra watched Althea's departure with a mixture of frustration and envy. Her fellow bride was now free to explore and experience things outside the confines of the castle, while Cassandra felt like a caged bird, trapped in the suffocating world of King Darian's palace.
"Isn't it unfair?" she muttered under her breath, the bitterness in her voice evident to Fiona, who was sitting nearby. Fiona, a more pragmatic and easygoing bride, glanced at Cassandra, raising an eyebrow.
"What's unfair?" she inquired, her voice laced with curiosity.
Cassandra turned to face Fiona, her features contorted with frustration. "That Althea gets to leave the castle and discover new things while we're stuck here like prisoners. It's not fair!" she exclaimed, her voice growing louder as her frustration boiled over.
Fiona sighed, shaking her head. "Cassandra, you're just jealous," she pointed out calmly.
