Chapter 7

Rhydian is jogging down the corridor when he spots me.

"Maddy! Where were you?" Before either of us can say anything more, we hear footsteps coming closer to us. I grab Rhydian by his color and drag him towards an empty room.

"Maddy! What the hell, I cant find you all morning and when I do your dragging me by my shirt! What's going on?" his tension in his voice rises and blackness starts to pulse through his veins. Guilt pangs through me and before he can get anymore upset, I hug him tightly around his waist. I had learned big news that would affect my future, I had spent my night thinking so much that sleep was the last thing on my mind, and now I've upset Rhydian. My emotions build up and tears burst from my eyes, crying into his shoulder.

He hugs me back and we just stand there for a while, not saying anything.

After a while he whispers so gently in my ear, "I'm here for you Madds, tell me what's wrong."

I take a deep breath and begin explaining "I couldn't sleep last night so I decided to go for a walk. I walked towards the library and saw a light there. Next to the light there was an open book, about the queen of all Wolfbloods. I didn't think anything of it until I saw the portrait. It looked exactly like grandma. That's when she came out of the shadows and told me she was queen."

He looked at me confused.

"Is that it because if it is, I'm confused to why you're so upset?"

"No, here was a note in the back saying 'her daughters daughter will do the same as she.' That's me Rhydian! That is my future. I will be queen whether I want it or not!" He hugs me tighter and calms me down before he speaks.

"How did you not know this before?"

"No one told me! Not my mum, or my dad, or even Grandma! No one! They should've told me, it's my future they're taking away!"

"But its in the future, not right now," he spoke soothingly. "You can forget about this until your Grandma… well, you know. And I have a feeling that wont be for a while," we chuckle to ourselves.

"Thanks Rhydian, for everything" I can feel him smiling.

"Your very welcome."

I stand there still hugging his torso.

"Rhydian?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you" the words slipped off my tongue. I worry how he will react. This relationship had been very sudden. I close my eyes and hope for the best. He slips his arms from around me and holds me at arms length. I just look at the floor. He slips his hand under my chin and lifts my head up.

"Maddy, look at me."

I look into his gorgeous blue eyes.

"I love you too," he finally whispers back.

He wraps his hand round the back of my neck and crashes his lips against mine. He is the one to break the kiss and my stomach rumbles.

"Come on, lets go get breakfast," and we walk hand in hand to the dining hall.
