My Soul and My Mate

Reinventing

Mother was heartbroken, her mate bond exponentially multiplied tha pain. Knowing she would never hear him in her mind, never hear his voice outload. Never smell his scent again. She used to always tell me dad was her morning coffee, her shot of energy to begin the day. His smile and his easy going personality won her over in an instant. They had a love story for the ages. They were best friends growing up, dad even became a Knight to protect her. He was there for every heartache she went through and she was there for every heartache he caused.

Mom has beautiful black hair with deep brown eyes that can look into your soul and stop you in your tracks. She is 5ft 7 with a body any one would kill for. She is kind and loving, strict and reserved. Dad was the opposite, blonde hair with deep green eyes, 6ft tall, muscles for days, and a smile that could make you love him. Truthfully he was charmer.

It took him years to finally admit defeat and to acknowledge my mom as his mate. Mom knew the instant they turned 18 he was the one, she gave him time and space to make peace with knowing he would become King. As soon as they found out they were mates dad asked for space. He told her he would be faithful but unlike her he wasn't raised to be a royal. My mother who from a young age was taught to be graceful, obedient, and quiet, never raising her voice but never allowing anyone to disrespect her, was always meant to be Queen. She did just that, make peace with his future, to become a man that warriors would follow, to become a man a Queen would be proud to stand beside. He fought with the warriors, treated them with respect, taught them to see him first as a man, then as a warrior, then King and lastly as a loving father.

He was in love with his queen and the princess she gave him.

Mom was an amazing queen, always graceful and ready to listen to her pack.

Honestly I do not think mom has ever even said a swear word. Even when dad died she took it with such grace, I cried and screamed for days. I wanted the world to swallow me whole. Their connection was so deep we all knew it was meant to be long before their births. They complimented each other and it was like they needed no words to communicate. They felt each others feeling through the mate bond, but it was more than that, it was as if they were one soul, one heart.

That also meant the pain she felt was horrible when my father died. I never saw her break in front of anyone, but I heard her crying every night for a week. Then she stopped, when I asked why, all she said was, " He made me promise to move forward, become the Queen he knew I was. To not allow myself to be weak at a moment our pack would need strength. I have to rise, along with you and our pack, i have to move on. I am reinventing who I am without him. He left me the best part of him, and its you my love. I will be strong for us until it is your turn to be strong for us."

In that moment I knew soon it would be my turn to be the Queen and to lead not just by strength, lead by example and lead with my heart. I would not allow anyone to harm my pack again, that also meant I would not allow anyone close to my heart. I do not think I could ever be able to handle such pain with such grace. I would be the Queen they deserved. I would earn every loyalty, I would earn every scar, and I would earn every respect of every person in my Kingdom. I will make you proud dad.

5 years ago I watched my hero, my father, my King be taken from me. Today I stand strong, reinvented and respected as an Elite warrior in our Kingdom. I stand beside my mother, proud to call her Queen. In 3 more years I will make my oath as Quee. and rise to lead. I have 3 years to prove myself to the world. Lunar Kingdom will continue to be the strongest, wealthiest, and nurturing pack in the world, one led by an Alpha Female, a true Queen.
