A novel of An Encounter chapter 3
"You don't believe I'm your mate fine here's a evidence!" Rhegar pulled her to him,his fangs came out and he sank them into her shoulder immediately.
kaira gasped out feeling every thing in her body shut down,she suddenly felt her skin tingle with coldness coming from no where.
rhegar pulled away letting go of her, he had to before he lost control.
"what....what did ..did you do to me?" kaira staggered backward.
"it's called mate bond" king balem said.
.Kaira touched her neck feeling the mark there.
"Why did you do thay?!!" she shouted, it wasn't healing meaning it was sealed now.
"Don't you understand?, if he wasn't your mate it would have healed my now kaira ?!" her mother said.
"I don't accept this alliance ,I don't accept you!" she pointed her finger at his face.
"I'm sorry but you have to", rhegar muttered stepping towards her.
"Listen I didn't mean for any of this to happen like this but I really need you to accept this alliance my kingdom is at stake please" he whispered .
kaira glanced at him hands still on her neck ,she looked at her father then to her mother.
"This may be your opportunity to leave the castle kaira" her subconsciousness spoke.
"Fine I accept!" her statement shocked them all.
"just like that?" sybil had to say.
"yes if he's really my mate then I accept" she said again.
"Thank you" rhegar sighed out he looked to his grandfather who smiled at him.
"Then it's settled ,king balem our daughter is yours to take !" king argon announced.
kaira smiled shortly, she walked to her father.
"Are you happy now?" She asked.
"it's for your own good" king argon said.
"The chariots are outside, we leave for thegaran tonight to arrive tomorrow" king balem stated.
"Won't you at least rest king,you've come a long journey " queen malisa suggested.
"No dear queen, we came for a purpose and its fullfil dear kaira accepted the alliance we can leave now!" He said..
kaira frowned hearing that again.
she glanced at rhegar shooting killer daggers at him.
"Well then, if you say so,kaira come!" her mother stood up walking to her.
"You finally did one thing right" she whispered to her.
kaira scoffed walking out on her.
"If I knew she was going to create a scene I wouldn't have come grandfather!" rhegar muttered beside him.
"She's the right queen you need rhegar, be patient with her okay?"he told him.
rhegar sighed also walking out of the place,he made his way to where the chariots were waiting.
kaira stormed into her room angrily ,she rushed to her mirror checking the mark.
"it looks beautiful!"Phoenix grinned.
"Shut it!" she snapped.
"kaira!" her mother called stepping into the room.
"I know you're happy so don't act all sad and buttery with me" she frowned facing her.
queen malisa sighed walking to her she took her hand and made her seat on the bed.
"you think I don't know why you agreed to this alliance so quickly?" She began.
kaira remained silent looking anywhere but her mother eyes.
"You my daughter kaira whether you display notorious behaviours or not,and I know the only reason yoj accepted is because you know you'll get the adventure you want" her mother said,kaira blinked starring at her now.
"Thageran is a wonderful land and I know you'll make a fine queen for them, I know you might not accept everything all at once but for the sake of I and your father if you have any ounce of love for us..." Her mother trailed.
."I love you mom" kaira muttered, no matter how strong she acted she loved her parents more than anything.
"And I love you my darling" she soothed her hair.
"You're the bravest girl make this adventure memorable " queen malisa smiled.
kaira smiled back ,she sighed getting up.
"Weren't yoi going to help me ,I'm going to be a queen soon!" she giggled ,her mother smiled pulling her into a warm hug.
"I'm going to miss you" she muttered.
"I'm not going to miss you you punish me to much" kaira chuckled.
..... Rhegar sighed out once again, he wasn't ready for marriage but here he was.
"Are you really going to make a total stranger your life partner rhegar?" he demon spoke.
"you have to rhegar,you're doing this for the kingdom and she's not a stranger she's your mate ", his angels said otherwise.
"king rhegar?" James called from outside.
rhegar blinked coming back to reality he looked out seeing him.
"I'm sir James, a friend of kaira" James said.
"I want to trust you with her,I've always protected her since we were kids and now she's leaving please promise me you'll keep her safe "he said so emotionally.
"kaira looks like someone who can protect her self though u mean she held a knife to me not too long" rhegar stated.
"That's it,I need you to protect her from herself ,shes an irrirational person who needs people around her so no matter how stubborn she gets please don't ever leave her" James muttered.
rhegar sighed understanding him "very well then I promise I'll never leave her,even if she wants me to" he stated.
"Thank you " James smiled.
"sir James?" kaira called walking to them,her mother stood beside her sybil behind her.
. "My princess I came to bid you farewell one last time" he said.
kaira smiled she wrapped her hands around him hugging him tightly.
"You're the bestfriend any girl would ask for" she smiled.
"he's hugging mate!" blade snapped.
james pulled away " be good okay?" he muttered.
"I'll try" she smiled,she faced rhegar and her once smile turned into a frown.
"bye mom, bye dad ,bye idiot" she waved at them.
"I'll help you " rhegar stretched his hand forward.
"I can help myself" she muttered climbing into the chariot.
The rider immediately started the horses and like that they left red keep...heading to thageran land.
The whole trip was put on silent mode ,kaira didn't even say a word all through she kept looking out capturing the nice views the moon brought.
the silent stabbed rhegar hard in the chest he wasn't comfortable with it at all.
she treated him like he didn't even exist.
."can we at least get to know each other since we'll be married soon?" he finally spoke up.
"you should known that before coming to forcefully make me yours" she hissed out..
"I didn't make you mine, I only made it clear to you that you are mine, if you weren't that mar...", he pointed at her neck.
"who asked you to even bite me in the first place did I tell you I wanted evidence!" she faced him now.
"You had a knife to my throat,who even does that " He stated.
she went silent not having anything else to say.
rhegar sighed slumping into the chair tiredly ,he closed his eyes shut trying to get Amy form of sleep.
~ NEXT DAY;THAGERAN LAND ~
Rhegar his eyes to the morning sun,the rider was still riding but he knew they were already home..
he looked over at kaira and sighed she was still sleeping, her hair covered her face,her breathing moving it around.
Out of impulse he stretched his hand forward removing the hair from her face,he smiled starring at her beautiful face.
"She has a pretty face but deadly agenda lies behind this face" rhegar chuckled.
he immediately moved away seeing her Bart her lashes.
she finally opened her eyes ,she looked at him suspiciously
"We've arrived your majesty!"the rider announced
Guards immediately trooped to the chariot opening the two doors.
"welcome your majesty" they bowed ,kaira starred at them stepping out ,she adjusted her gown taking a good look at the Palace.
"It's huge" she wowed in awe.
She breathed in taking in the scent of a new environment.
rhegar walked to her "Come on" he muttered heading straight, she immediately followed close to him.
"oh wow,she's beautiful!"
"her skin is so shiny!"
"She's more beautiful than any girl In the land"
"She's the fairest of them all"
Those who saw even a glimpse of kaira chipped awe struck by her radiating beauty.
"Greetings your majesry" the guards bowed, rhegar nodded, they opened the the and he stepped in.
"Greetings my queen!"They bowed to her also.
kaira stepped into tje room and was welcomed by vulturing eyes, lots of them.
"All raise to welcome his majesty and future queen kaira of red keep!" The Royal announcer declared.
kaira flinched feeling rhegar hand holding hers ,he led her forward.
"Greetings your majesty,future queen kaira of red keep!" They all greeted.
kaira just stood watching carefully,a lady came forward she was dressed in very rich cloth and the extra large crown on her head.
"is she the one?" queen jezebel asked starring at her.
"Yes jezebel ,she's the next queen of thageran" king balem stepped in.
"she does look like a jezebel?" kaira mumbled ,she yanked her hand away from rhegar.
"Mkther please prepare her for the ceremony " rhegar said,queen jezebel nodded.
"Come on kaira" she touched her arm.
kaira nodded letting her take her away
"What are you all standing for the mating ceremony is in one hour someone get the priest!" king balem ordered.
They all left immediately.
"Why must you rush things grand father she just got here let her at least settle in" rhegar sighed ,everything was happening so fast.
"no kiddo it's going right why delay good things like this ,go get ready you need to look good for your bride " he smiled..
kaira was led into the queen's quarters she sat as told and watched as up to 20 maids walled around her some picking dresses some picking the shoe..
"may I my queen" a maid tried touching her hair..
"No you may not,don't touch my hair !" kaira said.
"What's in your hair kaira,you're going to be my sons wife you're going to have to act and dress like one" queen jezebel said.
"just for tonight kaira you'll put this people In their place soon" she said inwardly.
"Fine you can make my hair" she sighed ,the maid immediately placed the comb on it.
queen jezebel smiled "good" she loved submissive people.
2 hours had gone by but kaira was yet to arrive, rhegar sighed the tenth time he looked over at the entrance but no trace of her..
."my King the auspicious time is due to pass" the priest muttered.
"make it stay a little more please " rhegar answered.
he came down but his grandfather blocked him.
"Your bride isn't here and you also want to leave no way" he stated.
"Why isn't she here" rhegar snapped getting pissed off.
"She's coming.." king balem trailed just like he said,kaira stepped into the yard adorned with flowers.
she was putting on a blue gown her hair tied up in a perfect bun ,she looked gracious.
"She's here go back" king balem said.
She took the first step then another one till she reached rhegar.
"may we all raise to our feet?" the priest began .
kaira looked at rhegar for a second then looked away, she tried her best not to do anything ....yet.
"Do you princess kaira of red keep take king rhegar of thageran as your husband to be bounded for eternity?" he asked.
kaira thought for minutes not knowing what to say her silence bothered the crowd.
"you'll make a fine queen!" she remembered her mother words.
"yes I do" rhegar finally released his breath.
"and do you king rhegar of thageran take princess kaira of red keep as your wife to be bounded for eternity?" the priest asked again.
"yes I do" rhegar answer was fast.
"Your hand princess kaira " the priest said,kaira brought her hand forward,she let him cut her palm with the knife,he did the same with rhegar and made them hold hands.
"kneel" he said,they both knelt In front of him.
"As your blood mix, so does your souls,from today you both become one ,you belong to each other forever ,I bless your union today, and to all whoe are witnesses to the joining of King rhegar and princess kaira,I hereby pronounce you husband and wife" He proclaimed.
the congregation clapped in excitement "all hail the king and queen "
"hail!".
"all hail the king and queen!"
"Hail!" They kept chanting.
At that moment it pouted out from the sky.
"Rain!" king balem smiled looking up.
"All hail queen kaira!" the chanting changed.
rhegar smiled seeing the way his people jubilated ,it kept pouring and pouring none stop.
"It's just rain why are they over doing it" kaira scoffed.
"we have to complete the ceremony your majesty " the priest said.
rhegar nodded ,he moved back and shifted into his wolf.
blade moved close to kaira bowing in front of her.
"You're supposed to get on him my queen" the priest said.
"I know I know" kaira nodded.
"but I don't want to" now they all faced her.
"it's tradition kaira ,you get on rhegars wolf and he rides you round the Palace the pack following!" Queen jezebel said.
"I know all that but I don't want to do it" kaira said the same thing .
rhegar had to take control again.
"you have to do it its not a choice " he said.
"let's make this wedding fun, I'm going run you're going to chase me let's see if you can match up to my speed" kaira smiled.
"this isn't the time for games girl!" Queen jezebel snapped.
"are you ready king?" kaira winked at rhegar, she shifted into her wolf immediately.
Like the speed of light she jumped off the altar running out of the place.
"Who did you bring into my Palace rhegar?" queen jezebel questioned.
"what are you waiting for rhegar ,go after her" king balem stated.
rhegar sighed heavily he shifted into his wolf running after kaira.
The crowd watched confused at them.
"is that how the ceremonies works?" one asked.
"With all due respect my King, these isn't how the ceremony goes" the priest said.
"I think I like this method better" king balem chuckled.
