Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 94

Dylan POV

| barley slept a wink last night, and it was all because of what king Josh said right before he fell asleep. | tried to

talk to him but he just kept tellinghe’ll discuss it withtomorrow. Well now it was tomorrow, and 1 still

hadn’t had my questions answered.

“If you don’t shower today, | will drag you in the bathroom and wash you myself. Just because you're up here it

doesn’t mean that you can simply forget about your hygiene. You are my queen. You must present as such.” He

sauntered through the room clearly looking for something as | rolled my eyes. “I saw that!” How on earth he saw

my eyes roll is beyondbut still he was taking and so | took my chance.

“I just don’t get why we have to go to my district!” | spoke only to have the king chuckle at my words. He turned

towardswith a cocky grin firmly planted on his face.

“Well, I didn’t get to stay very long the last tdid 1, besides | have business to discuss with the alpha.” | didn’t

want to face everyone again, not after everything I'd been through. When | left | was this somewhat happy girl,

I'm not sure seeingthe way | am now will give everyone much hope.

“Fine, but why do | have to go too?” He was fast in his movements as he grabbed the back of my neck and held

my face just in front of his firmly, his breath splattered my featured and causedto grimace slightly, it wasn’t

because he smelt had, in fact his scent was rather nice, he did have money after all, and it certainly showed, no

it was his proximity that was the real issue. | would never be able to be around him without being disgusted by

him.

“Because the last t| left you here, you fucked another man and in turn forcedinto to banishing my

friend!” When he phrased it like that, it really did makeout to be the villain, but | didn’t care, | knew the

truth. He placed a simple peck on my lips before looking in the drawer for whatever it was he'd lost. “How could |

leave you again knowing how cohesive you can be. | underestimated you once, mate, but | swear to the moon

goddess herself, that | will never make that mistake again.”

He rummaged through yet another draw before growling and slamaning it shut. | guess whatever he was looking

for wasn’t there, because he took one last look atand pointed directly at my face.

“Get sof your things together. Your handmaiden will stop by to help you pack. | shall see you in a bit, my

love.” He placed one last single kiss on my lips before exiting the room. | heard the lock click shut less than a

minute after the door closed and | was once again completely and utterly alone. I sighed and flopped onto the

bed staring at the ceiling, the sroutine everyday for the last two weeks.

| sighed, knowing I couldn’t spend another day lying down in bed, when there were plenty of things | could get

on with. I climbed out from underneath the quilt, and stretched my once again extremely skinny body, instantly

feeling dizzy from my lack of nutrition, and so ended up falling into a sitting down position on the end of the

bed..

| ran my hands down my face and gave myself a minute to regain my senses. | was starving, my stomach had

been going off most of the night, and there's nothing worse than not having regular food provided. Not eating

much at all made you cranky and irritable, which of course king Josh noticed and simply toldthat | already

know what to do, and | did know what to do. The right thing would be to keep his grace completely at arms

length. I may be forced to be with him, but | would never accept that as my fate.

| suppose if I'm to face the public world soon | probably should shower and freshen up. | thought to myself as |

wandered through the room. If people seethe exact way | am, then the rebels will be pacified and the king

will know just how much he has gotten to me.

So | decided to get myself up. | got showered quickly before throwing a pair of the kings shorts and a t-shirt on. |

looked at the gown that was meant for me, but talked myself out of it. If no one was going to seeanyway

then | may as well be comfortable within my confinement. Why would | put on an uncomfortable gown when I'm

stuck in this room indefinitely. What was the point in that?

Once | was dressed 1 began to read that book again. So for the most exciting thing to happen to the man was

finding out he had something known to woll kind as the sight. It allows a wolf to tap into nature and see for miles

ahead or behind them. We'd learnt about it before actually, but it was such a rare gift these days as all the

wolves live life like humans, they aren't as tapped into nature like they once were

| suppose in a way it's a good thing. If they saw everything within let's say a five mile radius, then they'd know

everything and be able to prepare accordingly.

The door knocked as | continued to read, in stead of the king, however, was my handmaiden who quickly and

efficiently began to helppack.

She barely even acknowledgedas she farted around the room. Folding everything back up before placing the

items in the suitcase.

“You must be excited, your grace.” She fumbled around while addressing me. “You haven't seen your friends and

family in a while.”

She was quite right. | hadn't, and seeing my moms face drop as she realizes how bad I've had it these past few

months was swimming through my mind

at full speed. If only there was a way to avoid her, however I'm pretty sure that would never work. If she finds

out that | am to return home, then she will do everything in her power to see me.

Although she did just letget taken by the king, so maybe she hadn't changed much, not much at all.
