====================

No one dared to intervene with the anger of King Viktor.

Staff members of the royal palace could hear the loud yelling of King Viktor towards Persephone.

Even his Beta, Nolan, could hear their king yelling at Persephone.

There were loud -thud- and bumps against the walls could be heard.

Thud!

"I must say, I commend Persephone her courage to directly confront King Viktor and not fear his presence." Mia aired her thoughts with Beta Nolan by her side.

"A mate of a werewolf will be the only one who has the courage to confront a raging beast." Explained by Beta Nolan to the resident witch, Mia.

"Tell that to the late Queen Esmeralda. She was not King Viktor's mate but she had the courage to face him without fear as well." Mia pointed out Queen Esmeralda as her example.

…

…

…

Beta Nolan kept his silence. 

The Beta remembered how fearlessly Queen Esmeralda faced King Viktor with no hints of fear at all. 

Even in her last breath…

There were no hints of fear. 

As time passed by,

King Viktor left Persephone's private chambers defeated and was not able to get the intended outcome he desired for.

The moment the doors opened, Prince Alarick rushed to his mother.

Prince Alarick just ignored his father and went immediately for his mother.

"Mother!" exclaimed by Prince Alarick.

"Do not be loud, my hearing is kind of messed up from your father's beating." Persephone's request from her son while wiping the blood from her wound created by King Viktor.

Shards from the broken glasses were all over the place.

A sight that Prince Alarick could not endure.

His mother, wounded and beaten up by his own father.

Persephone knew in an instant what her son is about to do.

By the look in his eyes, as soon as Prince Alarick turned and intended to head to the door, Persephone grabbed her son and stopped him.

"Let me go mother! This is enough! YOU ARE HIS MATE! He cannot keep doing this to us. Humiliating and hurting us whenever he feels like doing it... It stops today!" said by the frustrated Prince Alarick.

"No! You will not confront your father. I will heal, so do not worry! This pain is nothing. Stop worrying and do not act foolishly. I thought I taught you well enough. Use your brains over that heart of yours. If you allow your emotions to rule over your actions, you will not be the king of this kingdom that I know you will be." Persephone convincing her son as she held her son.

Prince Alarick clenched his fists in anger and faced his mother.

"Why can't he treat you the way he treated Esmeralda? Why would you not reject him and become free from his tyranny and abuse? We can take over this kingdom without his help. We are influential enough and can gather more than half of his allies against him. We hold so much influence and it is enough to topple down father." Prince Alarick trying to convince her mother to fight back and free herself from King Viktor.

A chuckle was his mother's reply to him.

Then he watched his mother stood by the window and looked above.

"You think your father loved Esmeralda? She was just a mere pawn to his grandeur plans. We may have the biggest influence in this kingdom, but there is no stronger werewolf than your father alive." Explained by Persephone to her son while keeping her breasts from getting exposed.

After a quick pause, she continued. "If you think you can win against your father with the strength and influence you have at the moment. Then, I guess I was wrong to think that you are ready to be the king of this kingdom. Even you combine your strength with your allies, only failure awaits you. Only the next -Chosen One- can defeat your father."

"What you mean the next Chosen One? The old prophecy? How come you know this stuff?" Prince Alarick expressing his confusion.

"Once upon a time, me and Esmeralda were more than allies. We were best of friends since we were young. So, I know what she knows. Even she does not tell me, I know where to look and how to listen around her. That is how much I know her and was … close to her." Revealed by Persephone.

Her son was rendered speechless by the thought that her mother and the late Queen Esmeralda were best of friends once.

A smile formed at Persephone reminiscing and remembering the old days with her supposed best friend… Days that were filled with laughter and youthful joy together.

Until a memory came, as she looked at her messy bed.

*** Flashback ***

In Persephone's exact bed,

"Please forgive me, I did not intend for this to happen! It is an accident." the late Queen Esmeralda cried and begged to her best friend.

An expression of disbelief and surprise are painted altogether in Persephone's face as she hears her best friend explain.

"WHAT YOU DO NOT INTEND?!!! How could that be an accident, Esmeralda? How…??? Tell me!!! How will you explain to me that your vagina interacted with my mate's own cock? Because getting pregnant with MY MATE … IS NOT AN ACCIDENT!" Persephone tells her best friend about the situation.

"All I can remember is that we were drinking together and the next thing led to another. I was too upset about losing my own mate and became vulnerable. I did not mean to …" the late queen kneeled in front of her best friend as she breaks down in tears.

Persephone did not let her best friend finish her explanation. 

"…To get yourself pregnant with MY OWN MATE! I know it is devastating for you to lose your own mate BUT IT DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO COMMIT A SIN WITH MY MATE !!!! By accident or what not! YOU DID THIS!" Persephone told her best friend and went by the window side.

Persephone then cried, "My own best friend! You are like my sister already. How could you cause so much pain to me? I could have endured it if it was just someone else because I can kill her with my own hands. BUT WHY YOU !!! OF ALL PEOPLE, YOU DID THIS TO ME!!" 

Looking at Esmeralda with so much pain in her eyes.

Esmeralda stood up and followed her best friend. She was about to say something but Persephone vented out further.

"Then I find out from others that my … best… friend… is pregnant. And guess who the father is... my OWN MATE!" Tears kept falling from Persephone's eyes and she continued, "Why keep it from me? Do you even intend to tell me the truth? If I did not confront you with all the things I discovered, I bet you will keep me fooled like a puppet under your strings." 

"That's not true! But how can I tell you? If I know that you will get hurt by this truth." Esmeralda explaining while her tears kept flowing.

"Then tell me as well, when were you planning to tell me that you were nominated to be the queen of this kingdom?" Persephone revealed to her best friend.

A surprised look was on Esmeralda's face from all the discovery of her best friend.
