His Hidden Child

(6 years ago)

We never truly understand what the heart desires until it plays on the decisions and choices we make.

I had a simple yet difficult goal.

And it was simply to help my blood related cousins get rid of their step brother for the throne.

And that's exactly what failed to happen when I laid eyes on her.

My cousin's mate.

The young girl, the daughter of common bakers, had become the soon to be Alpha kings mate. At first she was just an obstacle that had gotten in my way to dispose of the dear cousin I had loathed. But later on, as weeks passed by, she had slowly become the woman I desired and longed for. And my eyes would follow her whenever she was near.

Isabella.

Sighing I couldn't help but bang my head on the table.

"Jayden, Abigail wishes to see you." David called out.

Nodding, I stood up from my chair and slapped a smile on my face making my way to the first queens Chambers.

Knocking in the door, I waited for her to let me in.

Sindevaladore's mother, Abigail, seemed to had started loosing her head a bit after the king took in his second chance mate. Sin was her only string of stable mentality that kept her together. Without him, shed fall apart.

Hearing a slight 'come in' echo from behind the door, I pushed the door open making my way in.

She stood at the widow watering the flowers that were slowly withering away. Humming to herself I tapped my foot impatiently, waiting for her to tend to me.

"Ah, Jayden, you're already here." She said noticing my presence.

I nodded hesitantly as she ushered me to take a seat. Pouring me a cup of coffee, I picked it up slowly drinking it. She wanted something, that's the only reason she would ever call the likes of me.
