I have lived in this cabin since I was six years old. On my first day here, I don't remember much of what happened, but I remember my mother dragging me to my aunt and uncle's house.

As my aunt said, trauma often conceals memories that are too painful to bear, such as those that are from childhood. As I remember it, everything was chaos, there were many wolves running around everywhere. When I was a child, I remember my mother

I am not able to remember her face any longer

dragging me to my aunt and uncle's house.

"Get the princess out of here as soon as possible! She should be taken to the cottage which is hidden in the forest. Esther, if we don't show up at the cottage by the time you arrive, it means we have died."

"I don't understand what you mean, sister! The thought of leaving you is too painful for me! I would like you to come with me, sister!”

"Obviously, Esther, you know that I cannot do so, as I am one of the most skilled warriors here, apart from you and your mate, and my mate as well.

As the King and Queen of the pack, we cannot abandon the pack at any point in time, and we need you to save Ashina from being killed. My aunt and uncle argued about whether we were allowed to use magic, and we escaped through narrow, dark tunnels.

As I watched my aunt falling to her knees while holding my mother's hands, she cried, "Please sister, please come with me. We are twins, our hearts are tied together. We have never lived apart. I need you; how can I live when I know that you may die a horrible death."

As far as I remember, we escaped, there were a lot of dirty and dark tunnels, and my aunt and uncle, along with a few royal warriors, were arguing about the fact that we were not allowed to use magic. An effective magic tracker can capture the essence of magic and trace it back to us through its essence.

As you can see, the tunnels were narrow, and they were built thousands of years ago. There was a lot of dust, and it was dark. I believe we would not have been able to see our way out of these tunnels if we weren't wolves. Only the Royal family and the Royal guards knew about these tunnels.

Getting from where we were living to where we are now: has taken our group several weeks through the tunnels. Our group had to make sure anyone who was going to follow us was confused by the scents we emitted. The scents we emitted could also be masked with the spray we had on hand.

Among the escapees in our group were two shadow walkers, four royal warriors, and my aunt was a were/witch and her mate, but there were not that many of us. There was also my baby brother who was only a couple of months old, as well as my nanny and her mate, who lived with us as well.

There may be a reason they were so concerned about me getting back later in my life to save the royal kingdom. Only people born with Alpha blood can inherit the throne, but for some strange reason my brother was not born with Alpha blood. In light of the fact that both of our parents were Alphas, this didn't make sense to me.

As soon as we climbed up the mountain of a northern frosty mountain, we found the cabin built into the rocks of the mountain. It was the land of the winter dragons in this part of the world. My parents were friends with the King and Queen of the winter dragons, and they gave them this house to use as a retreat for their vacations during the winter months.

Under the cabin there were tunnels that ran under the floor, and we entered the cabin through the basement. The front of the cabin looked small, but once you walked inside, you could see that it was indeed made to be a packhouse due to the size of the building. At the time,

Even though I was still considered a princess, my aunt was also considered a princess, and my brother was considered a prince. Located on the fourth floor of this building you will find the residences of the royal family. During the night, our nanny and her mate slept in a separate room between my brothers' room and my own room. What I am saying is the whole fourth floor was for us royals.

However, I no longer feel like a royal. In present day, my uncle disappeared going to find supplies, my aunt died of sorrow without her sister and her mate. My nanny and her mate where still with us, but she was more like a parent then a nanny. The guards are no longer four of them. There is only one warrior left.

When a warrior leaves for the outside world where the packs reside to get supplies meant to help wolves, they never return. The shadow walkers are the only ones that leave and return. They cannot be seen as they do hide in the shadows. They have both found their mates and have children, whom they are training to be shadow warriors. They will not leave me because their sole purpose is to make certain that no harm comes to me.

According to my personal opinion, it has been too many years since this happened, and the kingdom no longer exists. There is an excellent job for me in the dragon kingdom where I have a lot of responsibility. I have a couple of friends, and it is true that a few of them bullied me because I wasn't a dragon shifter. Due to my inability to fly, I was not able to train to fight in the air.

My human form earned me respect because I can defeat any dragon in an actual hand-to-hand fight, even if it were in its dragon form, on the ground.

Almost eleven years have passed since we came here, and it is hard to believe that time has gone so fast. It seems as if it has been a long time since then. My little brother is now eleven years old and besides what he learns about werewolves from our nanny and the shadow warriors, he attends a dragon school and understands most of the ways in which dragons behave.

In order to show their respect for my parents, who may or may not be dead, the dragon King and his queen trained me to fight, and they taught me how to be a monarch in their honor. I just wonder why this is so? It is likely that my parents have passed away, and there are weeds growing through the kingdom.

One of the dragon princes who is the future king of dragons likes me romantically. He is cute, however according to my nanny I need to wait for my mate. Again, what is the point, I live among dragons, and I have grown to love it here. This is now my home.

At home on the days off from my job and school, I spend hours studying about werewolves, hierarchies and how to be a shadow warrior as well. It is my nanny and the warriors that give me training like I would have received if I would have lived in a pack, as if my parents trained me. When I was thirteen, they talked me through the process of shifting into my wolf for the first time.

In order to find a mate, dragon shifters must turn eighteen years old before they are able to do so. Currently, the eldest son of the Winter Kings is nineteen years old, and he visits me whenever he has the chance. In addition to being tall and broad in the chest, he has sapphire eyes and white hair like the snow on his head. Despite being a beautiful man, he is also a very masculine man.

It was a year ago. I remember the pain just like it just happened, I walked upstairs. I was early to meet my dragon prince early. I had tested out of high school, and I thought I was in love with him. He had wanted us to take our relationship to another level. I had kept saying I wasn't ready, how were we to tell his parents if we had taken it another level. He was even afraid of that, his parents looked at me like I was a daughter to them.

I ran upstairs quickly; I was certain that I was in love with him. I was going to run in and strip off my clothes. When the door flew open, my eyes could not believe what they were seeing. All this time I thought he loved me too. There he was balls deep in some blonde. I couldn't see her face, just her hair displayed upon his pillow under him. They were about to finish by the moans that was going on. He didn't see me as I turned around and left, while silently closing the door. A couple of hours later he strolled up to my home, I was sitting on the porch. I know he would wonder why I didn't come to his house.

I watched his beautiful white hair, which shone silver in the sunlight. I wanted to cry, yell, scream, and throw things; However, I cannot show weakness.

I watched as his feet pad up the stairs and sat next to me on the wooden swing, which was held by metal chains from the porch ceiling. I turned to face him, he tried to grab my hand affectionately, I withdrew my hand out of his.

"We need to talk; you have a true dragon mate that you will be in love with. I believe that we should quit playing around about being in any type of relationship. I have decided to save myself for my mate, and you should save yourself for your mate." I look up to see his expression on the last part of what I said. I saw him wince, and then cover his expression quickly.

He replies, "But I am in love with you, you would end us just like that." I could feel my heart break even more from his lies. How easily he says the word love. Like true love has no meaning.

My heart was breaking, and I had to keep it together before it shattered into puzzle pieces that would be hard to put back together.

Using a cold tone to my voice, "I don't love you! Please leave." I turned around and walked back into my house. It was then that I kept preparing to leave and find my destiny.

As a result, even though he tries hard to see me, I avoid him now even though he tries so hard. It is impossible for us to take this any further since we have different paths in life to travel, and just thinking about leaving him breaks my heart, and I cry at night on my pillow as I think of him.

Is it true that I feel love for him? The answer is yes, I do. Is it true that Iam in love with him? I am too young to know the answer to this question. The truth is that I am not his mate; he would have discovered this when he turned 18 years old. There is no way he will be able to become a successful future king if he has a chosen bride.

As I approach the age of eighteen, I am aware that the time will soon come when I must take my own journey on my own to save my Kingdom and to find the man who will be my future king. It is common for many of my friends to dream about becoming a princess and finding their true love. It is nothing more than waiting for my heart to be broken that makes it so painful.
