Claimed

Althea woke up to find Abigail was sleeping next to her bed. Her body slung on the edge of the bed with her head lulled to the side and she used her arm as a pillow, she was sitting on the floor, while holding her hand.

From the book of it, she had been sleeping in this position for a while and needless to say, this position was very

uncomfortable.

Althea looked around her and the very first emotion that hit her was this hollow in her chest, the sadness that she couldn’t describe into word, where she felt like her world had collapsed around her feet, the fact that she had lost Jasmine couldn’t be

described into word.

How she would live her life after this? How she could continue with her life?

Althea felt like there was no point for her to live anymore. Even if they gave the most severed punishment for Willow, there was no point for that, she lost her daughter, her daughter had gone.

There was part of her that tried to tell her that her daughter was still out there, waiting for her to be rescued, but the logical part of her told her there was no hope. It had been days and Jasmine was only a year and half year old, how could she fend herself for that long?

More so, she knew what people thought. Wild animal must have mauled her to the point they couldn’t even find any trace of her anymore

Althea had seen herself the effort that they exerted to find her baby, but still, there was no sign whatsoever.

She was desperate. She wanted to crawl out of her body and scream this pain away. She didn’t want to be in this pain anymore, she only wanted her baby. She didn’t want anything else.

A cry tore her throat, which woke Abigail up and the moment she saw her daughter was having a mental breakdown, she immediately got up and cradled her in her arms.

“Sssh… it’s okay, baby. It’s okay. Everything is going to be okay. You can cry. You can cry… but I promised everything will be okay”

Althea screamed on the top of her lungs, she wanted to rip her heart and throw it away, because it was so painful, she wanted to crawl out of her skin, so she didn’t need to feel this pain and her scream was the only thing that one could hear in this morning, echoed throughout the hallway, tore every wall.

Brian was there, behind the closed door, staring at it as if he could see what Althea was going through. He stood there, he couldn’t do anything for her daughter or for her granddaughter.

Killian, who heard the sound of her scream, immediately rushed toward her bedroom, but he didn’t have the courage to open the door. He stood there beside Brian. He balled his fists tightly until his knuckles turned white and his claws stabbed his palm, but he couldn’t feel the pain

There was no pain that was more painful than this.

He failed again and this time, he failed miserably and now, he could only stand there, watching the woman that he loved falling apart.

Abagail was inside to giv

who just lost their child

give comfort for Althea, but there was no amount of comfort that could shoot the pain of a mother,

They had tried so hard to find Jasmine, but they still couldn’t find her anywhere. She vanished from the surface of this realm and now, there was this big hollow in their chests.

Althea’s cry tore everyone’s hear, who heard that.

For the next four days. Althea shut herself down. She didn’t eat, she didn’t sleep, she refused to drink Abigal tried every method possible, but she didn’t budge to the point on the fifth day, her mind was shutting down, she didn’t notice her surroundings anymore, she didn’t show any emotions and only stared at the ceiling, she would mumble a song that she used to sing for Jasmine.

Her condition became even more worse than ever on the sath day

Kilan felt like he was watching her slow death. Every second of Althea was an inch closer to her demise and this was the hardest thing that Killian had to watch in his entire life.

And everything was his fault…

Only if he didn’t bring Althea back Only if he didn’t take Willow with them. Only if he let her go. she might be happy with Jasmine with the life that she chose.

But right now, he lost her slowly and he had to watch how her mind and soul died before her body followed

However, Killan’s problem was not only that because a few days later he received another information about dozen of ships from mainland kingdom had docked at the harbor and king Alex was finally here.

“What are you going to do now Armond asked, the beta knew about the failed plan and how prince Dane had been executed a few days ago which meant, if king Alex was here, it was not a good sign at all for them. The king could kill them all for literally kidnapping the queen and they had no mean to fight these royal warriors, especially when they had no back up, since prince Dune had failed with his coup

The letter that Killian received a few days ago came from Alex. In the letter, it said that Alex was going to get his queen and his daughter back. Killun had to hand them over or else, he would bring havoc to his pack

“What are you going to do now?” Armond asked again when Killian didn’t give him an answer.
