Chapter 0419 "Don't you dare, apologize to me... it's disgusting!" The venom in her voice tookaback, never mind the king who visibly gulped and clutched onto his chest slightly. I have to admit, I swelled with pride seeing her stand up for herself in such a way. She had always been out spoken, and determined, but right now she was showing the entire world that she had zero tfor the man claiming himself as king. The last tshe did that resulted in her mothers murder, so I was surprised she possessed the gumption. "Why you ungrateful little bitch..." Warren's anger was worse than the kings at this point. I suppose it was rather admirable to an extent, his loyalty was definitely unquestionable.
"Warren... No one is to interfere...and my queen need to have a frank... discussion..." the entire area went silent once again as the eyes of everyone landed on the two monarchs that stood 10 feet away from each other. "Tell me, my queen... what does he have that I don't?" Josh pointed to me, all the while everyone around simply listened to the conversation, waiting on pins for something to snap the tension and cause the war to rage out. His eyes began to take on a certain unhinged craze that made him seem all the more dangerous. "Why accept him, and refuse me? I am your KING!" Josh's anger was rising dangerously, which causedto begin to struggle in my restraints. Goddess, please don't let Dylan break again, not from this, don't let her crumble under his presence.
"Do you really not know?.. Or do you just really wantto say it?" Her voice was strong, and powerful it held everyone captive, just waiting for her to confirm her rejection.

Gasps of shock sounded out, but my mind was still reeling with the words that had left her lips... She loved me?! She had never spoken those simple three words tobefore, and with them, I felt my chest ache, my wolf form was edging into release with a fury that I never thought I could possess.
I never believed anyone would find it in their hearts to make room for me, especially not after the death of Iliana. I had all but deemed myself unloveable, even more so whenever I thought about the destruction had caused in the past. Not to mention I had previously done everything in my power to deny the connection I had to Dylan, out of respect and hope for Josh... But no, she loved me! "I love Lewis more than life itself..." Not only had no idea how strong her feeling were towards me, but I never thought her capable of staying them so freely, and so openly, until that moment. With her confession I felt my body radiating nothing but love and affection for the girl currently staring at me, my girl... my one true mate.
I'm not too proud to admit that I had fallen for her the moment I set eyes on her. Her attitude and wittiness were simply mesmerizing, especially when you think about everything the new world had put her through. However, hearing her say that she now held strong mutual feelings for me, filledwith nothing but euphoria.
Murmurs sounded over the many warriors that were present, my girls words lingering on everyone. While the stupidest grin found it's way onto my face.
"What!..." Josh suddenly becstill
