“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.
In the dimly lit chambers of the fae palace, Darian's eyes bore into Victor, an air of tension enveloping the room.
Darian's sharp gaze demanded answers, "Victor, what did you learn from the escaped dark fae? Anything about Althea and Fiona?"
Victor hesitated, glancing around cautiously before responding, "Nay, Your Majesty. They remain elusive. The dark fae revealed little, and their whereabouts remain a mystery."
Darian's frustration surfaced, his fingers tapping impatiently on the ornate table. "We must find them, Victor. The mate bond with Althea persists, but it's elusive, like grasping at shadows. What about Valentine? Any word from him?"
Victor shifted uncomfortably, "Valentine is investigating, but information is scarce. It's as if they've vanished into thin air."
Darian sighed, the weight of his responsibilities pressing on him. "I can still feel the bond, but it's weakening. Something's wrong, Victor do what you must to find Althea."
