Be My Mate

Sabrina's POV

"You didn't have to do that." I say to Aiden, who walks in to my room, looking disheveled.

He looks at me for a few seconds before pulling me in for a hug.

"My father is too chicken shit to want to play god of this realm. Yes he loves the power but he is not smart enough to come up with whatever coup they have planned. There has to be someone in the shadows pulling the strings." Aiden confesses.

We pull away to look at each other.

"Well, Hunter will find out soon and then it will be war. Things will get ugly and I'm the moon goddess, of the earth realm. I don't have control over this realm as they'd like to think." I say. Actually afraid of what will become of this place once the two families go to war.

I'm not stupid to not know the impact that family has had on this realm. Some people will fight for them, die for them.

"Don't do that. You are just as important as your father or brother. You have as much pull as all of them and that is why everyone was against your ascension." He tells me.

I smile at Aiden.

"I mean, I know I'm like royalty here but my work is not with this realm but down there. My father is the ruler here and he will kill every one right now to protect his family and I'm sure your father knows that so what could they possibly have that could get my dad to step down again?"I ask, walking all the way to the window.

Evan walks in carrying a tray with tea. He places it on my side table and then bids us goodbye.

"I'm having Evan and the elders work their magic. They can spy on the realm and I'm pushing my ball to tomorrow so I can have everyone in the room to get a feel of their energies." I say, taking my tea in hand and walking back to the window, looking out.

Aiden comes to stand beside me.

"And what will you do when you get what you're looking for?" Aiden asks me and I remain silent for a second.
