For the entire day, we had been preparing for the great journey towards the palace. the palace was about 4 days away. it would take away most of the courses offered needed water supply through these four days. we had decided that we will do all of us. I would not be leaving anyone behind because I wanted to make sure that everyone is safe and protected. what better way to watch over these people than be around them every time. if the king accepted my request, then we have the opportunity to jump up on the free food in the palace before we came back to this desert and made it our Park territory. I knew that a lot of adjustments had to be made in leadership and we had to create our own democracy. the best thing about this was that we were not going to be tied by the traditions of our people. it was finally time to cut those toxic ties away and lead our lives with freedom.
'' the people are gathered, they are waiting for your speech on the countdown of how this entire plan will be executed. it is all up on you now, Maria Brown Williams.'' Isabella says with a beautiful smile on her face. I can tell that I'm writing for. the day that she got to see the people she had grown up with Unite and become one. as far as I had learnt about Elizabeth, her parents fell in love after being banished for not finding their mates. they found loving each other without needing the sacred Bond of Soulmates. given up to now, both Mr and Mrs Maguire love each other intently. there love still holds on despite the lack of A mate bond. this only strengthens my belief and the determination of breaking this bizarre traditions.
" are you ready? you have been busy making sure that everyone is well prepared. for the past 3 days Isabella, you have run around his entire pack and made sure that all supplies have been provided and well arranged. you made sure that we have not forgotten anything and you went ahead to cover our tracks just in case we will be followed. you have done a lot for these people and I think you need to take some rest. you will not be on the first watch on this first day, you need to get some sleep.'' I say to her.
" I know, I just can Not help it. this is a dream come true. this is what we have always been waiting for and your arrival has made it all possible. every time I try to close my eyes, I cannot help but feel as though the next time I wake up you will be gone and all this progress will have disappeared. this is why I make sure I'm always up and ready to help. I am dedicating myself to discuss and making sure that we see the Freedom we desire.''
I take a step forward, taking both her hands in my own as I caress the back of them. she is a pure soul, one who has dedicated her life to making sure that the missions of the people she has been with are going to succeed. freedom was the very thing that made man who he was. In a world full of werewolves, I knew that one day we would break. I understood that one day we would seek the Freedom that was denied from us centuries ago. I could not help but imagine that perhaps this tradition for only measures set for a temporary period of time in order to maintain a certain situation. what if this traditions were only meant to be followed by a certain tribe of werewolves.
"You keep forgetting one thing my dear, you are doing this so that you can also see yourself from the other side of the road. So that you can reach the other side of that bridge where there is freedom and chains of our culture no longer bound us.'' i say to her, " if you keep exhausting all your energy like this, we will have to carry you to freedom.'' I joke making her burst into laughter. Unlike me, Isabella was only 20 years old. her heart was pure and untainted because he had never seen any other life other than the life in this surroundings. Isabella has never been part of any Park.concieved and brought into this world by rogues, she still turned out pretty good.
" what do you think the king is like?'' Isabella asks in a dreamy voice.
"Fair and handsome, as i have heard.'' I respond.
"I hear that he is much more than handsome, he is smoking hot.'' Isabella retorts.
" you and your hormones.'' I counter back laughing at her expression. who cared if the king was extremely handsome. we were going there for business. the King would never fall for a simple Maiden let alone a rogue. he was bound for royalty and if he had not found his mate then I understood that the alpha hunt was very soon. we needed to make sure that we got there in time before they had started. I understood that if they had started before us then the process of offering our request the king would be prolonged. we would have to wait for the kings Hunt to be over before we made our request to him. there was still that 50 50% chance to whether or not we will even be allowed to see him. the king was after all a very important goal and he was protected at all cost. I have always heard stories about how the queen of the Kingdom, the alphas mother, was sceptical and ruthless. she was no different from alpha Donovan.
"Maria!'' i heard the high pitched voice. Isabella and I were startled, havoc a rose is my heart began to pound faster. Immediately, I reached for the caves entrance pushing out as I see the wolf that was running towards me. something was wrong.
"The Alpha. Alpha Donovan has come. He says he wants to kill you!''
