Mateing is a pain.

Mother's Meeting

    My mother enters the meeting room, looks at me and gets mad. I look at the head board member Mr. Berry then to the rest of the board member's Mr. Volt, Mrs. Camo and last Mrs. Burn.  The board members have their mates and my sister has hers but 'father' Harold might be losing his, as for my brother Gage and I we don't have our mates, yet but that day will come when we will find our mates. I look at Harold feeling sorry for him. Emily is now sitting in the middle of the room, she looks at the board members ready for anything to be thrown at her and she can say what ever she needs to stay queen. 

The head board member Mr. Berry starts the meeting, "Queen Emily do you know the reason why you are in this meeting trial?" Emily say's "No Mr. Berry but I do have a good idea why, it is because of my daughter Tearza is telling lies about me with no proof of any thing she is saying." I look at her then to the board members hoping they don't believe her. Mr. Berry looks to Harold, "King Harold please stand and talk about why this meeting trial is happening." Harold stands up and walks to stand in front of the board members hold a bag of stuff, "Of course Mr. Berry, what I have is proof of some of the things my wife the queen has done and being lying about." Emily looks at me pissed, but does not speak. 

    Harold opens the bag and pulls out a book, and flips to page 56, "I have Proof in this book that my wife Queen Emily has cheated on me and got pregnant for this man. Its says 'I had the best night last night with Darrel but now i am worried that I might get pregnant with his child even though I was not in heat.' now does that sound like a loyal wife or a good queen to be by my side?" Harold flips to page 68 "Now here is the worst part i found out in the book, 'Today I found out I am pregnant but it is not Harold's baby it is Darrel's baby, so now I must lie to Harold and make sure he never finds out." Harold flips to page 103 "Today I gave birth to a daughter that I don't want she is a mistake because she is not Harold's child." 

    Mother starts crying, Harold flips to page 145, "Tonight after everyone is asleep I'm going to have the town wizard visit me and make it so I will only get pregnant by Harold unless something happens to him or he finds out and gets me banished from this land." The board members look at Emily then to me, I feel scared that I might get banished to thanks to Emily. Harold looks at me, "I still like to think of Tearza as my own and since I am on her birth papers even though I'm not her real father she is my daughter and I don't want her to feel like she will lose anything do to her mother." I smile at him, Emily pops off "How do you know that is my writing and not Tearza's writing?" Harold looks at Emily, "I know it is your writing Emily do to I have notes that came from you and the writing matches. and I have read some letters from Tearza that I found in your bed side table." Harold pulls out a letter that I had sent to him so him and I could talk. "Her writing don't match the book at all." 

    Emily looks at me then says, "What if he wrote it matching my writing to make me look like that bad person, she is the one that left when she turned 18 and never came back till today when I went I found her working building a house for a family." I raise my hand like a student in class. Mr. Berry looks at me, "Yes Princess Tearza." I stand up, "Yes I was working on building a house but you took a sword and held the couple that I was working for at sword point and yell my name to come out and to top that you scared Harley which is 5 years old, she ran to me crying her eyes out scared." Emily looks at me even madder then a few minutes ago. "She is lying now I didn't do that, I walked in and yelled for her that is all I did." 

    Harold looked at the guards, "Guard Ted and Guard Rob where there, and Ted told me that you did take his sword and told him and Rob to stay outside till Tearza comes out then grab her and put her in the wagon and don't let her move at all just like a poisoner." Emily looks at me then to the guards mad. Mr. Berry looks at me, "Okay that is it, what else proof do you have on Queen Emily Harold?" Harold pulls out a few more things from the bag he is holding. "Here is proof that Emily was cheating on me with other men as well." I look at Emily then to Harold confused. Emily looks at Harold, "Where do you find all that?" Harold looks at her, "I looked in your office and found secret hiding areas for all that you where hiding from me and our kids." 

    Emily looks down, "I was hiding the letters because I don't think that Tearza need to talk to our kids at all the way she has been acting is not ok. And I didn't want her talking to you honey because you aren't her father and I didn't want you to find out because I knew i messed up by having someone else's kid." Emily starts crying. Mr. Berry looks at all the proof, "So Queen Emily why did you cheat so much after you had Gage and Beth?" Emily looks up. "Because Harold got so busy with the pack and work that he has not been paying attention to me so I looked for the attention I wanted." I looked at her then thought 'Sl*nt' I then look to Harold feeling his sadness and hurt. I want to say something but choose not to speak. 

    Harold looks to us kids then to  just  , "Then why didn't you just tell me you wanted me or ask for my attention?" Emily looks down, "Because I didn't want to bother you working or dealing with your pack problems." Harold looks to the board members, then nods his head. Mr. Berry looks at the others. "We need to meet in the back room to talk." They all stand up and walk to the back room. I look down, I feel eyes on me I know who it is so I don't look up at all. Harold puts his hand on my  .   . I look  .   him, "Tearza it will be fine." I kind of smile at him. 

    Just then the board members come back in and sit down, "Queen Emily so we have talked about all this, and the agreement is you are no longer Queen nor Harold's wife and you are going to a cell till the next trial held in you week to see if you are to be   banished   or aloud to stay in town, but not aloud back to this castle."

    Emily starts yelling all  "That is not fair at all. I am the queen you can't take that from me! Nor can you put me in a cell." Harold looks at Emily, "Yes they can and they are doing so because I said they can." Emily looks at him pissed, "Why would you do that I am your wife and your Queen." Harold walks to her, "You are not fit for that title queen anymore and as for my wife, No because you cheated on me. But to be clear your not even my mate!" 

    Everyone just looked at them shocked and confused. Emily starts crying, Harold looked at the guards, "Take her to her cell and make her change clothes." The guards walk to Emily and help her up then they walk out of the room. Harold thanked the board members for the trial then he walked out. Gage, Beth and I got up and followed him out. 

    ****

    It's dinner time now so Harold, Gage, Beth, and I are at the table waiting for dinner. Beth looks down, "What will happen to mother?" Harold clears his throat, "Well kids please don't get mad, but she will mostly likely get banished from this town and never to step back here unless she want to be sentenced to death. But I want you kids to know that I did love her tell she cheated on me with multiple men." I look at Harold, "I wont be mad but to be honest ill be happy if she gets banished because what she did to you Harold and what she did to me and told me every time she was alone with me." 

    I look down remembering what she has done to me. Beth looks to me, "What did mother do to you?" I look at her sad, "She always made me stay quiet about everything I knew about her and always told me that I was a mistake child and she wished she never had me at all." I didn't notice but Gage and Beth saw a tear fall from my eye, while Gage wiped the it away. 

    Just then dinner was severed, It looked yummy, it was my favorite spicy breakfast burrito's. "How did you know this was still my favorite?" I look at Harold who just smiled. I smile back, "Thank you I haven't these since I was last here before I moved out because I was 18." I dug in enjoying it slowly. I ate 4 of them while Beth ate 2 Gage ate 3 and Harold had 2 and a half. I look at them and smile happy to be here with them. I look out the window then I stand up fast. "I am sorry but I have to go but if it's ok I will come back later." I look at Harold for an answer. "You are always welcome here this is your home to, but why do you have to go right now?" I look back out the window, "I have to take care of something but I need to go now sorry." I walked out leaving them confused. 

    I got far enough away then I teleported to the woods not far from my house. I just start running, about a few moments later I shifted and keep running. I felt free, calm and relaxed but I also felt sad. I know I should tell my family but I feel like I can't just yet because all that is going on back at the castle. I am not sure where I was headed but Lilly knows because she was headed somewhere more north. Lilly stopped out of no where. and sniffed the air, then the air hit me. 'Mate, is near but is fading fast.' Lilly turns and runs fast as she can. 

    Two hours later we shift again, almost near my house. I smile at my house then I look down feeling sad, I should get back to my family at the castle. I teleport back to where I was when I teleported from the castle. I start walking back to the door of the castle but before I got there Beth was asleep in a chair waiting for me to return home. I smile at her then I pick her up and carry her inside to her room. I wrote a note for her telling her, that I was back and carried her to bed so she don't freak out. I walked back to the living room and fell asleep on the the couch watching the food channel.

    **** 

    The next morning Beth woke me up, "Sis wake up it morning time, We have some thing to talk about today." I woke up but I keep my eyes closed, "What do we need to talk about? What time is it?" Beth laughs, "We need to talk about what room you want when you sleep here and talk about my wedding, It is 9:35am." I open my eyes and look at her, "Your wedding, when is that? And what do you mean what room for when I sleep here?" Gage walks in at that moment, "What she means is, If you don't want to sleep here sometimes you can still sleep at your house but have a room here in the castle. Her wedding is in two day."

    I look at them both, "So you guys already thought that in case I don't want to be at my own home I can have a room here at the castle. You guys are so thoughtful and wonderful." I smile at them, that is when Harold walks in with his morning coffee. "Good morning kids, Hope you all slept ok." Beth and Gage nod , I just sit there and thing how to answer Harold. Harold looks at me, "Tearza what's wrong? Did you not sleep well?" I look at him, "It's not that but I need to tell you guys something but not sure how to say it." Beth grabs my hand, "Just say and if we are confused or have questions we will ask." 

    I look at her, "Ok well you guys only have one main power, well that's not me I have multiple powers and gain more if I watch other use their powers. Werewolf, vampire and witch." I look down and pull my hand away. Harold puts his mug down, "What do you mean but werewolf, vampire and witch?" I look at him, "I mean their powers of anything, spells, make people do what I want by tell the truth, or do something that I need done that I don't want to do or I can't do." Gage looks at me shocked. "Meaning you have done some bad things sis?" 

    I look at him, "No not technically I have not done anything bad, just made people tell the truth about things and had people do things that I couldn't do but before I did make them I had asked them first." Harold looked at me then to guard Ted, "So is that why Ted said about the whole sword thing after you said Emily did that?"  I nodded, "Yes because I know Emily don't have powers." 

    Harold looked at me confused, "What do you mean she don't have any powers?" I look at him then to Beth and Gage, "She don't have any powers because her powers where taken when she was younger by a witch that she meet when she was 13 years old." Beth looks at me now, "How do you know that Tearza?" I make a book show up on the table, "Read pages 34, 35 and 36." Harold grabs the book and reads it, then looks back at me shocked. "How has she been using powers then?" I look at the clock, "Well its not her it's someone else that is always near her that has that power." 

    Beth looks down, "I have helped her and so has a few of the servants." I pull her into a hug, "It is ok she had you do it for a reason. She tried to make me use my power to help her but I never used any power near her so she thought I didn't have any powers." I looked at Beth the Harold then finally to Gage. "I made her believe that I didn't have any powers, but I always had them." 

    Harold stood up grabbed his mug then walked to the kitchen. I look at Beth then Gage, "What did I say?" Beth grabs my hand, "Nothing just he has thinking to do now so he is going to fill his mug then go to the study room." I look the way he left to the kitchen, "Does he do that a lot?" Gage stands up, "Yes he does but its nothing to worry about. Now you to have fun talking about your wedding Beth. Tearza when you go to pick a room please let me know so when you do stay I know what room in case I need to every talk I will know what rom to go to so I don't have to search very hard." With that Gage walks out toward his room.

    I look at Beth, "So what about this wedding of your do you want to talk about?" Beth smiles and starts, "Well first my soon to be husband and mate is Prince Sebastian Nicolae Fogle of Duncan. He is two years older then me, and oh boy sis he is a fine a*s man. He is the alpha of his pack." I smile at how she brightens up about talking about him. Beth then looks toward the kitchen, "Do you want some breakfast?" I get up to those words and start walking to the dinning room table. 

    I smile as the chief brings eggs bacon hash browns and pancakes to Beth and I. "Thank you chief for this yummy looking food!" He smiles and nods his head. "Enjoy princesses. If there is anything else you would want please ask me." I smile at him then I look at Beth, "So anymore things you want me to know about your wedding?" Beth swallows her food, "Yes one more thing about that, Can you be my maid of honor?" I choke a little on my egg, "You want me to be your maid of honor, well I would be so happy to be sis."

     Beth gets up and hugs me. "That's great to know by the way, your dress will be sky blue, while the others will be in green dresses." I smile at her, "Ok so you have my dress ready for me to try on after we eat?" Beth nods and sits back down to finish eating. I take a drink of my cup and notice that it is my favorite, cream soda with cherry's in it. "I can't believe chief remembered my favorite drink!"
