Somewhere in the royal palace …

Princess Shiveena walked around with such elegance and intimidating fierceness.

Due to their loss over Prince Miryo, the royal princess and her other younger brother became less active in the politics and royal business.

But Princess Shiveena had to keep her connection with the Alpha King because after all, the Alpha King is their older brother.

And after the news about the supposed death of Selene, their older brother was never the same again.

Their older brother may have fooled everyone with his façade. But his royal siblings and those close to him knew how much the Alpha King still grieving for his mate.

Indeed … a grieving heart!

Never healed nor forgotten from its loss for the one and only love.

Whispers were echoing at the sight of Princess Shiveena making her way to her older brother's main office.

[-In the main office of the Alpha King-]

The Alpha King stood near at the huge glass window, reminiscing his days with Selene.

*** In his Memory of Selene ***

Both Selene and Alcyd were half-naked in the bed while being covered by a thin blanket.

As the sun rises, Alcyd woke up while Selene was already staring close at him.

"Morning love! You are already awake … and why are you staring at me like that? Are you thinking of devouring me? Because I will whole heartedly let you do so." The Alpha King sweetly told Selene.

Selene gently punched Alcyd's arm.

"Ow! Violent much?" complained by the Alpha King while smiling.

"Well … I just want to be sure that this is not just another dream of mine … Being with you and having you in my life brought meaning to this cruel life of mine. Carving your image in my mind, to make sure that wherever I may be … I will be reminded that there is someone like you who brought meaning and color to my life." Selene sincerely professed to Alcyd.

The Alpha of the Golden Moon Pack smiled and caressed the platinum hair of Selene.

"You know I love you right?" Alcyd asked Selene.

"Now and always?" Selene asked for reaffirmation.

"Yes … now and always!" sincere and genuine words from Alcyd.

"And I promise to stay by your side … now and always!"





*** End of the memory ***

The Alpha King closed his eyes preventing his tears to fall.

"Broken promises … you left me on my own …" Alcyd uttered to himself as he looked outside.

A royal guard announced the entrance of Princess Shiveena to his main office.

"Yes, let her enter!" the Alpha King permitted the entrance of his younger sister.

His younger sister entered the main office as she looked around at the new design and set-up for the main office of the Alpha King.

"Looks like you changed a lot of things around here, big brother! You even changed the location of the Alpha King's main office." Princess Shiveena pointed out before having her seat in front of Alcyd's desk.

"Of course! I do not want to be reminded of our father and his lies." Immediate reply of Alpha King Alcyd.

"Miryo was telling the truth after all … His reasons for hating and rebelling against father was valid. I cannot say his methods were right but his reasons were valid. We lost so much. I guess you are still grieving? Am I right?" Princess Shiveena wondered.

A long pause before the Alpha King replied to his younger sister.

"What made you visit? I thought you, Ivan and Ranku do not want to be involved in any royal business?" The Alpha King tried to evade the last statement of his younger sister.

Princess Shiveena clarified to her older brother, "But it does not mean we won't care for you. I visited because we are worried of you."

"Worried of me? I am doing alright." Alpha King Alcyd reiterated to his younger sister.

"Let's stop fooling ourselves here, big brother! You are not alright even years have passed already. If you are okay … you would not propose to Laura …" Princess Shiveena was not able to finish her words because the Alpha King knocked his desk in anger.

"There you go! I guess Garrett sent you here because of the proposal I did. Why all of you can't be happy for me instead? If you truly care for me … why are you here trying to question my decisions that I want for myself." A hint of agitation could be heard in the voice of Princess Shiveena's older brother.

"Because you are only doing it … out of longing for Selene. Not for true love or real commitment. Marriage is not a joke, big brother! You will not only put yourself but her as well in a life-long commitment. Have you even considered of what will happen if you pursue this?" Princess Shiveena did not waver nor hesitate in pointing out her own perspective.

Her older brother was pacing back and forth near the glass window.

"Why can't you just be happy for me? This is the closest to the happiness I can get. I have thought over and over … of ending my life! I do not have the ounce of strength to keep living without Selene … But with Laura, at least I can have something close to what I want and long for." Alcyd was in anguish for his loss.

"But …" Princess Shiveena wanted to convince her older brother and see things in her perspective.

Unfortunately, her older brother stopped her.

"ENOUGH! I do not want to repeat myself. Laura already accepted my proposal and we are getting married soon. If you truly care for me then attend in our wedding and be happy for us. Because if you don't … Please just stay in your residence! And stay out of what goes on with my personal life!" Alpha King Alcyd wanted to leave his main office but Princess Shiveena blocked his path.

"Big Brother! You know, we will always want what's best for you as your siblings. So if this what makes you happy then fine … you have our support but please do not shut us out of your heart." Princess Shiveena sincerely expressed her genuine concern for their older brother.

The Alpha King hugged her younger sister.

And he realized … his grieving heart would take longer before it can truly move on and forget the pain ... from his devastating loss.
