His Blind, Deaf Queen

chapter 14

Dygos POV

I wasn't thrilled about opening up about this to anyone, least of all my Queen. But looking at the state she's in has me more worried than i thought I'd ever be for another wolfs mate. She just stares at the wall like the world is burning around her and she's accepting the flames to engulf her with it. "Here goes nothing." i thought as i took in a deep breath. "My baby sister died." i said in a mind link to my Queen. She didn't move much but she blinked a couple times i guess i brought her out of her own thoughts. "Sheza was 5 when it happened." I said again. And Kalista blinked a few more times. "And its my fault." This time she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and i knew she really could hear me. "I was 15 and hated babysitting her for my parents. But i had a responsibility for her as the oldest and i never took it seriously." Her eyes grew soft and i continued. "My friends wanted to go do something stupid. Geez i dont even remember wat it was anymore." I say scratching the back of my head like an i***t. "Rogues attacked that day. And while my other siblings knew where to hide for safety, Sheza Hadn't been taught that yet. And i wasnt there to protect her. I was off with my dumb friends doing dumb s**t cuz i was a dumb teenager." She somehow managed to shed a tear for me but this was the part she needed to hear. "My parents never looked at me the same after that so i left and never looked back. I was 17 when i stumbled onto some farming land and saw a young wolf take his old man down in a fight and i thought it was awesome at first. But then i watched him help his old man up and something in me just snapped. I took off running making a b-line full force for this guy id never met in my life and before i knew what had even happened he had my pinned down on the gravel and my lip was busted open. I guess i was crying cuz he said 'boy i dont know who broke you but i promise it Wasn't me. Now you can either stay on the ground under me hurting over it or you can join us for supper and tell me all about it after over a few bears. Ur choice.' And i never thought he was serious till i said option 2 and he actually got up off me and put his hand out to help me up. I was stunned at first but took his hand and i tell you what his moms cooking was terrible but i was starving. I ate 3 servings and threw up about half of it." Kalista giggled alil i couldn't believe it was working. "That night he and i got drunk and i told him sobbing about what happened to my sister. He punched me in the face harder than ive ever been hit. But then he pulled me up off the ground again and hugged me like he knew he was my life support. He said 'dude i don't know your name but if i can trust you with my siblings and you can let go of the hurt by working that anger out all day every day on this farm and make something of yourself you have all the family love support and teachings you will ever need right here on this farm you got me?' i think i tried to punch him back and wound up ony back again. He held his hand out again for some reason and i took it again for some reason.

From that night on i was responsible when i had to be and laid back the rest of the time. But i never forgot his promise to me and he never let me feel like none of that promise was true. Four years later i sent that guy off to be in the kings royal army and he somehow became your mate and my king by the end of the week."I said softly. "You gotta let him in kalista. He cant help if you don't." i said finally taking a step toward the door. "Did you ever go back?" She asked in a small voice. "Go back where?" I asked. "Your parents. Did you ever see them again?" She asked. "He contacted them about a year later and laid it all on the table for them either they move and have a fresh start on some land right outside of his land or his parents take me in permanently and they aint my parents anymore." I told her. "And?" She asked like the suspense was killing her. "And ive been living with them ever since right outside my best friends family farm." i said chuckling. "Thank you Dygo." She said giggling. "I'll take my leave now. I got a mate wondering wat im doing alone with her best friend." i say with a laugh. "Yes you should go and please have Deluka come back." She said with a small smile. I smiled at her smile and left the room to see everyone bombarding my friend with questions. "Good goddess." i thought to myself.

Queen Kalistas POV

My darkness was strong. I felt like i was floating in a sea of the blackest black there ever was and couldn't see my nose infront of me. I couldn't hear anything but the words "He's gone." ringing on repeat in my head in my mothers voice. After crying everything i had in me my mind went numb. i was on autopilot. While i could pick up on my mate caring for me and bathing me i couldn't utter a word to him. I couldn't even thank him. It was like my mind shut down completely and everything i noticed was like ghosts flowing through me. But out of nowhere i heard someone else talking. "My baby sister died." Baby sister? Wat? Is that Zeno? Does he mean Leena? No thats not Zenos voice. "Sheza was 5 when it happened." The voice continued. Sheza? Do i know anyone by that name? "And it was my fault." Wait is that Dygo? It has to be. But I can't help but wonder why he is telling me this.

Zenos POV

I know he's the King now but im struggling to trust him. My father is gone and my sister, my queen is in shambles and my mother is in a drug enduced coma. How do i even begin to put my family back together? I think to myself as Deluka explains my sisters condition do us. "She's done this before." i said look at mesenti. "Yes. She became very closed off after i told her the King and Queen discussed giving the crown to Zeno or Leena." She said concerned. Deluka looked up at the door to his and my sisters room for the umteenth time and i was starting to get annoyed. "So why r you down here instead of up there helping her?" I ask upset that he let his friend alone in a bedroom with his mate. "i Can't help her yet Zeno." He said with a sigh. "Why not?!" I yell getting angry now. "She has to want his help dear." Delukas mother spoke up. I look at her with tears in my eyes clenching my fists when Deluka put his hand on my shoulder. "She won't accept help she doesn't want Zeno. But Dygo will be able to help her want it. He's a good wolf who's put himself through hell. And when he's ready he will tell u all how. But for now i trust him to help ur sister. And that's all i can ask of him at this point." Mesenti took a deep breath in and i knew she was having trouble being away from her mate. Meaning Deluka was also struggling. We sat in the den and started asking wat the rest of us can do to help when we heard a door open and shut. Mesenti stood first to great her mate as he came down the stairs. He took her in his arms and looked at Deluka. "She's asking for you." Dygo told him and he looked at the rest of us and told us to direct our questions at Dygo for the time being. And ran up the stairs.
