Kalistas POV
Breakfast with mine and my new Kings family was like a dream come true. Although i almost tore my brother a new one after he let it slip i walked in on my parents once when i was very little. I had to laugh though after my King told me he did the same thing at a year older than i was when i did it through our link. He said i was born lucky anable to see or hear them. He said it was traumatic but i just laughed more. My laugh was stiffled after i felt everyone in the room tensed and froze. I turn to my maid and she links me before i get the chance "My queen your mother is screaming!" Deluka and i rush to her and as we get closer i stumble and fall as i realize my fathers scent is completely gone. I'm doubled over as the pain from losing him hits me in the most overwhelming way. My king and mate gentley picks me up and carries me as i sob into his chest. "I'm so sry my Queen." He says in our link sadly. I'm unable to respond as my emotions overtake me and i sit there with my mother crying over my fathers body and the energy that day in the palace was sullen and dreary for the remainder of the day. I cried myself to sleep that night after having cried most of the day. My King held me and shed tears with me as he felt pain seeing me in pain. By the time i lost myself to sleep my eyes burned and my nose was raw from the amount of times it had been whiped with tissues. My pain was nothing compared to my mothers though.
Queen rejent Aryas POV
As the mate bond broke i knew my mate was gone forever and the scream that left me due to the bond breaking shattered any glass near us. I dont even know when my children joined me as we all mourned my mate and their father. But my wolf was so overwhelmed by the end of that accursed day i almost lost control of her. I thank the goddess the drs sedated me enough to sleep a dreamless sleep that night. As i woke i wrote wat i could on a peice of paper near my hospital bed and linked my queens maid to retrieve it and bring it to her. With that i had the dr sedate me again as my wolf was starting to panic again in my head. This will be impossible to heal from. And my wolf will never be the same again.
Delukas POV
This morning i woke to my mate and Queen curled into the tightest ball beside me in our bed. Her face was swolen still from the tears she cried losing her father yesterday and her eyes had dark cirlces. I mind linked the servants in the kitchen ordering them to have breakfast brought to our room so she could eat in bed. My small but strong mate was a so fragile right now and i had to pick up the slack for her. As i step into the shower i mindlink the elder who officiated my coronation. "Elder Corden, can you please tell me what needs to be done for the King rejents funeral?" I ask in a firm tone. "You need not worry my King, everything has been taken care of for his late majestys burning tonight." He says confidently back. Burning? They are going to burn his body? I think to myself after stepping back in the bedroom towel drying my shaggy hair. When i look up to see my mate slowly eating her breakfast in bed. I want to say something but instead i sit back in bed next to her and eat my food. Her eyes look somewhat hollow and her hand shakes with every spoonful of food brought to her mouth. "Hold mate!" Ryker says in my head. "And say what Ryker? How do i comfort her when i still have both my parents?" I ask not wanting to make her feel patronized. Ryker whimpers in my head as i take a bite of food and its as if my body moves of its own accord placing mine and kalistas food trays on the bedsite table and embracing her taking in every partical of her scent that my nose can take in one breath as she crumbles in my arms tears flowing sobs echoing through the room. "My Queen i couldnt begin to know the pain you feel if i tried but im here to do whatever i can to make this barable for you to get through." i say in our link and it was like anything she was holding back won the battle breaking the levys and the river of tears raged from her eyes. I held her till she had nothing left then joined her in the bathtub and cleaned her as thoroughly as i could she was a shell of her formerself and though i had no idea how to comfort her i knew I'd help her through it if it killed me. "Dygo. You're gunna hate me but on the Goddess im almost literally drowning here. I need your help. Your the only person i can ask." i say in a link to my best friend as i lay Kalista on our bed in fresh clothing and her eyes look even more hollow than before. With that Dygo opened the door without knocking and i let out a growl. "You could have knocked what if i hadnt been finished dressing her?!" I yell at him. "Hey you asked me here do you want my help or not?" He said shrugging. "You're gunna say no anyway" i tell him annoyed "You want me to connect with her over Sheza right?" He says matter of factly and i freeze. Thats the first time he said her name since she died. I wonder if he still blames himself. I only nod to him in affirmation and he points at the door. I growl at the idea of him telling me to leave my mate when shes like this but he tells me i have no choice if i want his help. I gently give my mate one last tender kiss and look at him "She's my Queen first and your mate second Deluka. I'd sooner hurt my own mate and you know that'll never happen." He says knowing i was about to say something. I left the room and walked down the stairs to the first floor and was confronted by my family along with Kalistas siblings and Mesenti. After i was able to settle the siblings down i explained the situation as best i could looking up at that bedroom periodically hoping my mate is ok.
