Chapter 90

The next few days, everyone was on edge. When learning about Sophia's brother, Sebastian, it was understandable. I stood on one of the balconies looking over our city below. I let out a sigh. Why were they doing this? Why me? I couldn't understand what they could possibly want with me, other than the prophecy of me bringing all kinds of magical beings together. I was lost in my thoughts when Melissa began talking to me.

"Have a plan?" She asked me.

"No, I don't. Do you?" I looked over at her.

"Yes, but also no." She let out an obviously stressed laugh.

"How are your people getting along?" I turned to face her more.

"They're doing well. Your people have welcomed us all with open arms. I know that is difficult to do but they trust their King and Queen to do right by them. They know you wouldn't have allowed us to be here if we were dangerous." Melissa gave me a warm smile.

"Good, I am glad. You're right though, I would never allow anything bad to happen to my people. Well, as long as I can help it, anyway. I would fight tooth and nail and risk my very own life if it meant my people could live happily and comfortably." I looked down below with a small smile on my face. I saw all three of my boys laughing and cutting up.

"That is admirable and makes you a great leader, and an even better mother." Melissa reassured me and lightly patted me on my back. "Come on, let's discuss our nonexistent plans. Well, better yet, let us make some plans together on how we are going to handle this whole situation. Other than the main plan of ending them." She offered me a warm smile and I nodded my head.

We walked together into my office and I sat behind my desk and looked across at her. "So, what are we going to do now? How can we go about this successfully and with as many lives intact as possible?" I thought aloud with a frown now on my face.

"Hmm.." I heard the soft sound of Melissa in thought.

"Whatever we do we will need to wait until Miranda is fully changed." I looked at her.

"Yes, yes we will." She agreed and cleared her throat before continuing, "But, that is not to say that they will wait for that change to happen. They could be surrounding us now as we sit here and speak. We do have people who can cloak us, shield us from others when we don't want to be seen. But then again, maybe they're losing followers and wanted to seem more powerful. I wish I knew who I can still trust that is on the council ." Melissa sighed.

"Well, let me give Miranda a call really quick to make sure everything is normal there." I picked my cell off of the desk. I went to her contact name and pressed the call button. The phone rang five times before I heard her voice at the other end.

"Hello Avalynn! Is everything okay?" She seemed happy to have received my call and it caused a small smile to tug at the corners of my mouth.

I am here with Melissa." I pulled the phone away from my face and tapped the

I found out he had murdered a bunch of humans in a small town and I guess they took him to be locked up. He's out though, so this is not good. Maybe I should hold off on my transition.
