"I love it but I think I would give the rest a try," Sabrina said, she loved this gown because it didn't expose her figures at all but who knows the other gowns might be even well covered, she thought but she was wrong, the next gown she wore was beautiful to be honest but it had no sleeves and was fitted exposing her curves and body, but the gown was as stunning as the first one, maybe even more,

"I don't like this one-"

"Nonsense!" Sarphina said looking at the gown "It looks great on you,"

"I agree, Lady Sabrina," Madame Ella said. Sabrina frowned worried, she didn't like it.

"Maybe we should move onto the next gown," Sabrina said thinking perhaps, the last one would be heavily covered but she was wrong again, this gown she was wearing now was breathtaking, stunning, beautiful and lovely but it exposed her to the extreme, it was an off shoulder lace white wedding gown with long sleeve, but the off the shoulder had a V neck, exposing the swells of her full breast and making it look fuller, the gown was tightly fitted, exposing her every curves and was very long, sweeping the floor, the veil was equally beautiful and long too,

"Now this is the gown!" Sarphina said grinning, Her daughter looks so beautiful in this "You look like an angel in this, you look so beautiful,"

"I have to say, I agree with Lady Sarphina, this was made for you," Madame Ella said supprised at how lovely she looked, Sabrina turned her work into an art piece, if others sees this gown they would surely have the mindset of wanting to get gowns from her, by just looking at Sabrina wearing it.

"I think I like the first one better," Sabrina said with a frown "I don't like this one,"

"This suits you perfectly, this is the one you will pick, Sabrina. Don't start now!" Sarphina said glaring at Sabrina who turned worried. Her mother isn't going to let her have the first or second one, this gown exposed her and though she must confess it looks really lovely on her but she didn't want that filthy man's eyes on her body.

"Mother, please-"

"Not another word, Sabrina!" Sarphina snapped and Madame was confused at how the situation was turning, Sarphina on noticing that Ella was here with them chuckled nervously "My daughter, she can be very shy, you see, Madame Ella, this gown looks good on her, don't you think? Help me convince her,"Madame Ella nodded with a smile,

"Princess, though I do understand that for a wedding gown, whichever gown the bride chooses and says she wants, then no one should argue with her," Ella said and Sarphina frowned "But to be honest, this gown is for you, you really look beautiful in it, the prince would never be able to take his eyes off you if you wear this on your wedding day, please choose it?"

"Alright," Sabrina sighed "I would go with it," Sarphina sighed in relief.

After changing they all went to join to the rest in the room,

"So have you been able to pick one, dear?" Lady Lucia asked looking at Sabrina.

"All the gowns were really pretty and I have been able to pick one out of it," Sabrina smiled and Lucia nodded.

"Here are some royal gowns for the ladies here," Madame Ella said as her assistant brought out some set of gown for the rest to pick "Early tomorrow morning I will make sure to get the gowns delivered safely,"

Later that afternoon, at Hallow village, inside a huge mansion, in a room sat Beth, Penelope and Vivian, they were all sipping tea,

"That bitch! How did she manage to get the prince to marry her?" Penelope said looking at both her friends with a frown.

"What do you think? She seduced him back stage and forced him to want to marry her," Vivian said in disgust.

"The prince doesn't seem like someone who can be forced," Penelope said with a frown.

"Remember she did something on that very day, she offended the prince but he didn't punish her instead he chose to marry her!" Beth said confused.

"Yes! Yes! I wonder why tho," Vivian added.

"Because she is a witch! Am sure that she is," Beth said glaring at the wall in thought.

"She is a human, Beth," Penelope said "The thing is she seduced him back stage,"

"How are you sure she is not a witch! It's not written on the forehead if one is, she might have used some spells on him," Beth said with a frown.

"The last I checked the prince is a pure blooded vampire," Vivian said "And the last I checked again, witches spells don't work on pure blooded vampires, just like it doesn't work on us," Vivian grinned.

"So are we going to attend the wedding ceremony or not?" Penelope asked.

"Of course we would," Beth said with widen eyes "We would be attending because there are chances of we meeting our prince charming, either of us may not have been able to have the prince, that doesn't mean we can't have other wealthy men,"

"Yes, you are right, other princes from other empires would be present there tomorrow, we might catch their interest and get our self suitors," Penelope said grinning.

"But are we going to let that bitch off easily, she seduced the prince and now he is going to marry that wretched woman, what does he even sees in her!" Vivian said.

"Of course we can't just let her off, like that, we could maybe destroy her marriage that very day, there is something I am going to give a try or perhaps someone I am going to talk to tonight and am sure that person is going to do something tomorrow," Beth said with a grin.

Lyon walked into his huge mansion as the butler and maids greeted him,

"You are back, son," Mrs Fisher said with a smile and looking at her good looking nephew. Yes Lyon was not her biological son but her nephew.

"Yes aunty," he said after he turned to look around the hall to see that they were alone.

"How was your journey? And I hope you got what you were searching for?" Mrs Fisher said .

"Yes, Aunt," Lyon answered her again, he noticed his aunt's expression changed to a worried one "What is it, aunt?"

"Your mother sent a message, Lyon," she started and Lyon frowned "Your parent really need you back, Lyon, why don't you go back and rule Winter empire for them, you have come off age a long time ago but you are still refusing to go back, what is it that is here that makes you keep wanting to stay?" Mrs Fisher asked frowning in confusion.

Sabrina, Lyon answered in his thought, I want to take Sabrina to Winter empire and make her my Queen, she is all I have ever wanted, Aunt Valerie, you won't understand. Yes he was and is the crown prince of winter, who was brought to live with his aunt right from when he was a baby, he didn't get to live with his parent because they knew he would be in danger if he lived with them, his father's brother was planning to kill him, so that his son who was older would be able to ascend the throne after Lyon's father dies, so Lyon's mother and father had decided to hid him away from the enemy by giving him to Valerie who had no child and was living alone as her husband had passed away, ever since then the people of Hallow had known Lyon as Valerie's adopted son and Lyon had grown up in the land of Hallow, loving everything about it and mostly falling in love with his childhood friend, Sabrina, he knew he was now a grown man and could handle his enemies, so he should be able to return back home ever since when his parent keep asking him to when he was eighteen but he was waiting for someone, he wanted ask that person to marry him and come to Winter with him, that person was Sabrina, he loved her and knew she loved him too, no body in the village of Hallow knew of Lyon's true identity and it stayed that way.

"Aunt Valerie, my parent would have to wait until I have what I want, I won't be leaving Hallow," Lyon said.

"You keep telling me this same thing, what is it that you want?" Mrs Fisher asked with a frown.

"Something or someone... Aunt they should be patient, No body in this entire village knows of my true identity except from you and the packs, I would like to keep it that way for now, send a message to my parent on my behalf and help me tell them to be patient, I will be with them soon," he said as he turned ready to head out "It's almost the night of the full moon, I have to be with the packs, if you will excuse me, Aunt Valerie?" He said

"May God be with you," Valerie Fisher said.

That night Lyon walked into the woods and kept walking deeper until he came across a building that was huge, he went in and inside there was lots of people standing, some discussing and on seeing Lyon step in, they all bowed.

"Greetings, Alpha," They all said, inside that same hall stood Beth, Penelope and Vivian along with their family members and other people who was of the same specie. Lyon stood in front of them all.

"Tonight is the night of the full moon, were we are going to get our powers and abilities strengthened by the full moon and feel renewed, we have waited for tonight and it is finally here," Lyon paused as he stared outside "Now it is time," as he said this, he moved to be followed by the packs, they all stood outside and stared at the sky, as they watch the moon slowly start to appear, when it came out fully, it shone it's light upon them, suddenly everyone's eyes turned golden yellow, along with Lyon's who was their Alpha. They were all werewolves, they all stared at the moon with golden yellow eyes and baring their large fangs, Beth, Penelope and Vivian were also werewolves, few minutes later, the moon slowly started to dim it's light and everyone's eyes went back to normal. They all were back inside the building celebrating. Lyon stood talking to a man,

"Nicolas, any news?" Lyon asked the man named Nicolas, that had brown hair and eyes.

"Yes, Alpha," Nicolas said "Troubling news tho, The witches are attacking our kind, they are killing more werewolves and using them for some sort of ritual, to gain more powers I think,"

"Never worry, I have brought a new technique from another empire to use against those witches," Lyon said grinning.

"And I heard that the council caught a witch, they saw a group of witches performing a ritual beside the sea and they managed to capture one of them," Nicolas informed Lyon.

"Did you hear about what ritual they were performing beside the sea?"

"I heard the prince was the one who interrogated her but he wasn't able to get her to say a word," Nicolas said with a frown and Lyon frowned too

"Doesn't seem like Lucian, he must be hiding something," Lyon said.

"I think so too, he is a very capable man, well known for how he tortures people and get them to do whatever he wants, so it seems strange that he couldn't make a witch talk,"

"That's right," Lyon frowned

"Lyon?" Lyon turned on hearing the female's voice and saw Beth, who bowed and raised her head "Can I talk to you?"

"Later then, Nicolas," Lyon said and Nicolas left "Yes, Beth?"

"Welcome back, I hope you had a safe journey?" Beth asked with a smile on her pretty face.

"I did, thank you for asking," Lyon replied smiling back, he was indeed handsome with black hair and eyes, shewolves were falling for him, wanting to be his Luna, he had one sided dimple on one side of his cheek which goes in deep whenever he smiled.

"I hope Nicolas updated you well on all the news, all recent events that took place here in Hallow?" Beth asked and Lyon frowned confused.

"He did," Lyon replied.

"Then you know about Sabrina?" Beth said schemingly and Lyon frowned.

"Sabrina! What happened to her!" Lyon asked in panic, not when he was about to propose his love to her would something go wrong "Answer me, Beth!" Beth shook when Lyon yelled, she had heard of their Alpha's temper, he got angry real quick, but she had to tell him about Sabrina's marriage to the prince. Maybe he would be able to put a stop to it with his temper.

"Nothing bad has happened to her, Lyon, just that she is going to get married to the prince tomorrow," Beth said as she watched the shocked expression on Lyon's face, she grinned "Don't you know? You know before you travelled there was going to be this occasion in the palace, where all maiden were invited, because the prince was going to get married again, so Sabrina went along with Elena and she was picked by the prince,"

"What!" Lyon said totally shocked
