Chapter Fighter 121
CHAPTER 019
Lucas and I walked outside into the cold and I looked up at the night sky, trying to see if it was going to start snowing soon. But it didn't look like it. I think there was still another few days, a week at the most before it started. Lucas walked out right behind me and I could tell that he was really pissed off. But he was trying to calm himself down.
"I'm sorry about that. I just hate these stupid little stunts that Hazel does. She plays games all
the time." Lucas said.
"It has a lot to do with me as well. She doesn't like me and she would have loved to ruin any good time that I was having." I said.
"I can't wait to get out of that house and not deal with her anymore." Lucas said.
"Yeah. I can only imagine what it's like to live with her."
"Hey. Let's not let them ruin tonight. Let's go and get some desert." He said.
"Sounds like fun." I said.
So we walked down the road for a bit and we went into a cafe and we both got a hot fudge
sundae and sat at a table talking again.
"So, I do have to ask what is your favorite part of the castle?"
"It would be my bedroom. It's really the only place where I get true privacy." I said.
"That's fair enough. Is it true that your mother's step mother and step sister work there?"
"They are unpaid workers. The way they conspired with Wesley to take down my mother was unspeakable. So, she thought death would be an easy way out for them. So she gave them a worse punishment." I explained.
"What about Wesley?"
"He was killed. Mom wasn't letting him go loose just so he could try and come at her again with new enemies or so he could make someone else's life a living hell." I explained. And he nodded his head.
"That sounds fair enough. I mean, Wesley was a real bastard. Him and that woman killed a lot
of innocent human women to try and replicate your mother. That's just sick." He said. And I nodded my head with wide eyes.
"And they eventually realized around the time my mother killed them was that she is one of a

kind and she can't be replicated." I smirked. I was proud of what my mother could do.
I was proud that she is who she is. I mean, she's the most special person to me and she has done so much good for werewolves. She really did use her powers for good. Not for evil. "Well, despite my fears of your mother, I am actually looking forward to meeting her." Lucas
said.
"Why are you scared?" I asked.
"Your mother has a reputation."
"Well, she's also a really awesome person when you get to know her." I said.
"She raised you, so I don't doubt that." He said.
I put my head down, trying to stop him from seeing me blush.
The rest of the night went by perfectly and he drove me back home and even walked up those
very many stairs to get to my house and kissed me goodnight.
Only to be interrupted by Jacob slamming the door open and scaring the both of us.
So Lucas left pretty quickly after that and I glared at Jacob as I walked past him and upstairs to my bedroom.
But before I got there, I heard him and Lexie laughing about it. He was just trying to mess with
Lucas and I didn't think it was funny. I don't want him to scare Lucas off like he does to all of Chloe's dates.
When I got changed and washed my makeup off, I got into bed and Chloe came in and laid on the bed next to me.
"How was it?" Chloe asked.
"It was pretty great. Even with Levi trying to ruin it." I said.
"Oh no. Is he really playing it like that?" She asked.
"Unfortunately. He is. But Lucas handled it by screaming at Levi's accomplice. It was Hazel. Who just happens to be Lucas' cousin." I explained and Chloe started laughing.
"Oh my goddess. What a f*****g mess." She said.
"I know. But what am I supposed to do? And besides, Levi is the one that just dug his own grave here. He knows that Hazel has a crush on him, she wants to be with him and he used
her tonight to interrupt our date. So, he's the one that's going to have to handle that backlash from her." I said.

"Oh no. She'll still be pissed at you." Chloe said.
"Yeah. But she's never actually been game enough to do anything to me. She knows who I am. so I guess she's never been game enough to fight me." I said. "Well, that's a good thing. Because I heard that b***h is completely unhinged. Even if I do go to
a different school." Chloe said.
"I know." I said.
Chloe ended up sleeping in my room with me, like we always do whenever they stay at the castle and we stayed up talking for a while but I knew that I had to get some sleep. It was the weekend but I had a big day tomorrow. There was no getting out of it since mom
wasn't here.
So the following morning I got up and I got dressed in a white sweater, gray track pants, socks
and sand shoes.
I left the castle and I ran down the stairs and I ran towards the back of the castle, through the forest on the side of it until I got to the canal that led out to the ocean.
I started running along the side of the bank so I wasn't running on the rocks and I followed it
all the way around until I reached the very edge of the canal and I could see the whole ocean
out in front of me.
I jogged all the way back home and I saw my guards that had to jog along behind me if I went for a jog, who looked like they were having trouble keeping up.
I laughed and teased them as I passed them on my way back to the house.
When I got there I had a shower and I did my hair and applied a little bit of makeup.
I walked to my wardrobe and I got dressed into a white blouse with a bow around my neckline, long burgundy pants and a matching burgundy jacket with black pumps.
I walked down to the dining room and sat down at the table. I was the only one there until Anna, the royal coordinator came into the room and handed me a day planner.
I opened it and started looking through it while the cook brought in my breakfast.
"Are you serious? I have to do all of this today?" I asked.
"It's mostly just meeting and greeting people in the village at the bottom of the stairs." She
said.
"It doesn't seem like that's all I'm going to be doing." I said.

"Well, I will be there with you to take notes. They are going to just express their concerns and you basically have to think on your feet. Tell them how you're going to fix them." She said.
My phone vibrated on the table so I put the book down for a moment to look at the message.
LEVI - I'm really sorry about last night. I hope I didn't upset you too much.
"Can you please give me a minute?" I asked.
"Sure." Anna said, leaving the room.
So I called Levi's number and he answered immediately.
"I know that you two agreed that this is what we were going to do. I'm fine with this arrangement. You both want to see who I like more and that's fine. I can understand that. But maybe there should be some ground rules. Like, no interfering in each other's dates. And definitely don't show up with Hazel." I insisted.
"Of course. It won't happen again."
"Good."
"So, do you have plans tonight?"
"I don't know yet. I'm attending to royal duties today and I don't know how late I'm going to be." I said.
"That's fair enough. But it is Saturday night. So, how about we make plans for 8pm and we just go from there. Let me know if you're finished or not." He said.
"Alright. I can do that." I said.
"Great. I'll see you then." He said.
I hung up and I smiled to myself as I started eating my breakfast and I called Anna back to have a look at the day planner again.. Comments
