I healed as many as I could until I felt drained and dizzy. With each person I tunneled power into, I could feel

something leave me, I could feel a part of my essence being stripped away but I couldn’t stop. I knew that I was meant to heal them, it was my fault they were in this position anyway. Whoever this witch was, it was me they had a problem with and not the innocent pack members. The least I could do was to ensure that no one died

because of me.

I wasn’t sure how I managed to ride back to the palace and not slip off my horse. I could barely hold on and I had to lie flat against it. By the time I arrived, I noticed Kevin pacing around the stables. He saw me and rushed over almost as if he had been searching for me.

“Your majesty,” he whispered. “Where did you go? I have been looking for you for an hour now. Are you alright?”

He helped me off my horse and I nearly slumped to the ground. If not for him grabbing onto me to hold me up, I would’ve fallen. He was clearly concerned, I knew that much as he looked me over for any obvious signs of

injury.

“What do you want me to do, your majesty?” he asked. “Do I take you to the prince?”

“No,” I ground out immediately. If Ryker saw me like this, he was going to be pissed. I had at least until later this morning to keep my secret. “Can you help me to my room please? I don’t want anyone finding out about what happened here tonight.”

He pursed his lips but nodded and led me into the palace. He made sure to take the lesser traveled halls which meant a longer walk but I didn’t mind. It was a battle to keep my eyes open but I somehow managed to do it. Once we got to the room, I almost moaned in relief. My bones hurt and there was something in the center of my chest- a burning feeling that I could not get rid of. Kevin didn’t want to walk into the room but it was obvious that I couldn’t go in on my own. He led me to the bed and gently helped me into a sitting position but I couldn’t even hold that for long before I flopped backwards.

“Thank you,” I whispered and he nodded. He didn’t leave immediately though, he stood there in the center of the room watching me carefully.

“Are you sure that you are alright? It would not take long to get the prince here.”

I didn’t want this, I just wanted my pack to be happy. I turned away from the mirror, lay flat on my back and closed my eyes. I couldn’t stop what I had already done. The past was in the past.
