[Avisa’s POV]Shock. I cannot make out what Dean was thinking, but I could feel the anger he felt.This stupid mate bond, I had felt the hate he felt when Anne hugged him, his anxiety when I left the room.He always acted like he had no emotions, but this man had so many emotions.Emotions I myself was having trouble handling.“What did you say?” he growled, “what did Penelope do to my mother?”Anne was filled with shock, “I…. I…… I was just trying to get a rise out of her.”“Don’t lie to me Anne, what did the queen do to my mother?” This mates sharing emotions thing doesn’t sit well with me.“I…... I…...”I rolled my eyes at her sorry state, she must be lying to make me angry, but still, she could be telling the truth.“What happened to the previous queen?” I whispered my compelling words, one of the best features of being a siren.Vampires couldn’t compel other vampires and mates could compel mates, but sirens could compel anyone with their voices.She started blabbing about how the

[Dean’s POV]A war? This time? What is that evil witch thinking?“Okay Aloe, breathe have some water,” Avisa is busy calming the elf girl down.Wars are not foreign to shapeshifters; we have had our fair share of wars.But it was said that wars were banned after the end of the blood war, the Goddess had restored peace to all shapeshifters.Every shapeshifter has been given their own place where they need not cross over to the other territory, thus preventing wars.“What do you mean they want to start a war? There is no species that has angered vampires since every shapeshifter is in their designated area.”“Don’t yell at her,” my sweet mate growls. I am never going to get used to her being this casual with me.But was this casual? I still did kill her mother and she hasn’t even asked me about it.How? Everyone knew her mother was the most powerful being in all the oceans. Why? She doesn’t think I am a cold-blooded killer, does she?“Well, the queen said they want power, and to get pow

[Avisa’s POV]Was this some sort of joke? What did I just do? Why did I even do that?My father’s back was now against me, he was getting ready to leave the room.He wants to kill him. I know my father hates this union so much he would kill my mate here.And I am supposed to hate him, I do hate him, I hate this man.“Are you okay,” Dean’s voice rings, his grey eyes shining with nothing but sincerity.“You killed my mother, and now I am stuck with you for life. How do you think I feel?”“I asked you Avisa!” he yells, “ I asked you if you were serious about us bonding and you said yes.”His voice now gentle and delicate, “I…… what did you want me to do, Dean? You are my mate.”He looks at me both angry and confused, “the same thing we agreed to do.”“Wow, so you wanted to reject me so you can go mate with that Anne chick?”The way I pounced on him probably confirmed what my father has always talked about.Greed, I was a greedy woman, “you are mine Dean Stoker, you hear me,” I growled at

[Third person POV]The waves roared and the seas cried. It was unheard of. In all their lives, this was an abomination.“What? The princess is mated to the man who killed her father?”“That unruly princess! Surely, she is no longer fit to be heir.”Elder sirens complained when the news that the princess had found her mate, may rejoiced.The man or woman was supposed to keep her grounded, keep her from her rebellious ways.But it seems the kingdom was doomed from the moment she was born.“Aran is still going to be king; he is strong and very mature.”“You think the king will allow that? That man who can’t see his daughter is nothing but a bad pimple to this kingdom.”“She should stay with the vampires; she clearly fits the criteria.”But if the princess is not to take the throne, who will? Many didn’t trust Aran was strong enough after the humiliation he suffered recently.They had never had a weak ruler, even the previous empresses were strong, and the current king, who was the first

[Third person POV]Metropolis, a city with dreams and secrets, a city burying a lot of history, history that has suddenly started glowing as a new historical event is about to happen.“Princess Adelina, the roots of the dead tree are glowing,” a distraught cry enlightens the enchanted forest.For the first time in a thousand years, the tree that was deemed dead after the blood war has awakened.“What? Why? What is the Goddess thinking?” all the elderly mythical shapeshifters of the enchanted forest grumble.“What is going on? Why did the dead tree glow?” the fairy princess asks.“It is to prepare for blood shed,” one of the elders said, “it also prepares for the death of a kingdom.”The princess is both bewildered and terrified, though shapeshifters in the enchanted forest are more mythical creatures than they are shapeshifters, and they rarely go to wars and their kingdom is never challenged.It was worrisome, because though it was brief, she befriended Avisa, who went on to rescue h

[Third person POV] Dylan rushes to the king’s office, today seems to be gearing up to be a bit more chaotic than usual. “Your Majesty, a word,” Dylan says. “We are busy here mage, you will have a word with him later,” Kyrtos interjected. “But your majesties, this concerns both of your kingdoms,” Dylan says. “What is it, Dylan?” “Well, the prince and princess have mated,” the sudden silence that hits, it is clearly the calm before a storm. Kyrtos could feel his blood boil, this is not how he thought this would go. He knew his daughter was one to hold grudges, she would have killed Dean the moment he gotten close to her. “How?” he asks in disbelief, “how is that possible, they were busy fighting just now.” “I am not sure how myself because they had told me they would reject each other during the blood moon,” Dylan says, he is trying to act shocked. But if he is being honest, he is not surprised they bonded, he is just surprised they took that long to do so. When the Goddess pa

[Fiona’s POV]People around ran to help me up, while I saw this woman look at me before grinning, pulling away from the hug.“Oh… sorry, I didn’t mean to do that, you are rather weak,” she teases before laughing mockingly.“Who the f*ck are you and what the hell did you do to my girlfriend?” Heath seethes, balling his fists angrily.She is definitely not expecting this reaction out of him, because she jumps back terrified.“Heath, it is me, Mimi, you can’t say you forgot me,” she reasons, “I…. I was just so excited to see you. I didn’t mean to hurt her.”“Mimi from where? I don’t know any Mimi,” Heath says, “and please refrain from manhandling me again or there will be hell. A matter of fact, I am surprised you are still alive after hurting my girlfriend.”I chuckled evilly, Heath had a past. I knew that when I met him, but his past had nothing to do with me, so this woman had no right to try and bully me.“Can we not waste our energy darling, I was about to win,” I teased, not paying

[Fiona’s POV]Gabriel really did a good job picking this hotel. It was homely, the elderly couple that greeted us at the reception and everyone who showed us to our room.They were both friendly and welcoming, and it made me happy.“This place is cool,” I say happily looking around, it was not a five-star hotel.It was a few stories, built with every architectural care needed.“Yes, it is,” he says, his face is clearly genuine, it might not be a five-star golden heights, but it is enough for me.I am still in awe of ho protective Dean had acted, the way he stood up for me really turned me on.“I will never get over of seeing you stand for me,” I tell him, he grins.“Well, I will always stand up for my woman, because she is the best,” he giggles before taking my lips.He mumbles something under our kiss, but I am too engulfed in the dirty thoughts of him inside me to even care.Taking a chance with Heath Duncan was the best idea ever. This is the best vacation ever.“Ugh……. Not this ag

[Heath POV]My bad ways coming back to bite me, but what made me angrier was how this man was so okay with insulting her.Fiona looked at him with shock, but soon sighed heavily.“May you please repeat what you just said?”My anger was evident in my voice, “well…... um…. Sir…. Last time you came here with someone you requested separate bedrooms.”“And? This time I have told you specifically, I need one room since I am bringing my GIRLFRIEND with me.”He is shocked and rather embarrassed. He bows his head in shame before saying, “I apologize sir, I will get your rooms at your request.”That is not good enough, the way he looked cocky after saying his first words bugged me.How dare he feel so confident in insulting his Fiona?“You are apologizing to the wrong person,” I firmly said.His face is shocked at first, he looks at Fiona with so much contempt, I loudly scoff at his reaction.“It is fine, Heath, he doesn’t need to.”“She is right. Why don’t we just get on with our day,” the way

[Fiona’s POV]With Selby’s father gone, it was time for Heath to commit to his promise to take him on a vacation and commit he did.“Vegas? I had always wanted to go to Vegas, how did you know?” I squealed happily, a man who does his homework is my type of man.“I am close to your friends, plus there is so much that could happen in Vegas that could be good for me.”I rolled my eyes at that, since his conversations with Mr. Green, he had been a nuisance, “I am not marrying you in Vegas Heath.”A beautiful laugh fills the room, he is so beautiful when he laughs, it makes you want to just smile at him.“Come pack your bags, Vegas isn’t going to explore itself,” he says, and I rush to our bedroom, “careful, you might fall.”This is the best gift ever, travelling the world. I have put that on hold since I started working. Each year I always tell myself, it is not time yet.But now, this feels right, travelling more. Maybe I should start now, stop worrying about work and travel more.I coul

[Heath’s POV]Paint, the moment he pulled his trigger, cold paint hits my face, he smirks before saying “alright boys, let us have some fun, while the ladies hang-out.”“Um…… sir, don’t we have to change to a more…...”Lucas’s attempt to reason with Mr. Green is cut shot by a big red ball of paint on his suit, “come on let us all start with our teams,” Mr. Green says ignoring Lucas.Hot-headed and stubborn, that is how Fiona described him, and though he infuriated me, I still needed his approval to marry Fiona.We are grouped with one of his old friends and the rules are set, we are all given paintguns with clear instructions on how to use them.“Okay kids, let us see what you have,” he mocks. I hate how effortless he seems. We haven’t even started, but I can already see us losing.And losing we did, again, and again, and again, “come on Heath we are not winning this, can’t we just give up already.”“You know if we give up, we are not getting the blessing to date/marry his daughters,

[Fiona’s POV] I wake up late in the afternoon, with the day to myself. I have woken up once to see Heath go to work, go back to sleep, and wake up again in the afternoon. It felt a bit good to not stress about work for the first two weeks, but it feels so depressing to stay home and do nothing. I hear a soft knock on the door which is followed by another loud and aggressive knock. I can deduce who is at the door already because I hear Mrs. Green say. “Selby don’t knock like that, poor Fiona must be resting,” she scolds in that soft and loving tone. “Mom, welcome,” with a warm hug, we greeted each other. “Wait till I tell you what dad did,” Selby says angrily. “What did he do?” I asked. I ushered them in as I caught up with what had been happening while I was asleep. “Come on stop exaggerating, your father would never do that,” Mrs. Green says, “he is probably getting to know them.” “He kidnapped them mom. How would you explain him buying a gun first thing this morning?” “I a

[Third person POV] “Father, I…. I am sorry I met my biological grandmother, and he told me about….” “Shut up Kaiden,” Zoey says angrily, “how dare you meet that man.” The boys were confused by Zoey and their father’s reaction, they felt a chill down their spine as their father glared at both of them. “Father?” Kaiden says, “I am sorry, I know you love mother, and her cheating is……” “Who is cheating?” their mother asks in a drowsy voice. “No one, go back to sleep I will discipline the boys,” their father says angrily. “Father, I think it is better to just tell them the truth,” Zoey says. “What truth? What are you talking about?” their mother asked. “Kaiden decided to meet Ellen Mule,” their father says in a growl. They had never felt so sacred, it was clear they knew about Ellen Mule and his family, it was clear they knew Kaiden was not a Beckett. But what hurt more was how their mother looked at them with fear, how tears started rolling down her eyes and how her legs gave o

[Third person POV] Kai was very uneasy, with the way Kaiden was acting, their parents probably had a good reason to not tell them about this. Well at least he hoped, he felt like his brother was making a premature decision with this. But Kai didn’t want to decide for Kaiden either, he didn’t even know how Kaiden was supposed to feel. Meanwhile the two women kept giggling as Kaiden was transferring money to them, it made Kai’s skin crawl because it felt like they were just using him. “Okay, now let us go rescue your father,” Crystal says happily, Kaiden frowned. “No, I will contact you soon, I need time to think,” Kaiden says making Kai heave a sigh of relief, at least he was not being reckless. “Oh… why is that?” Layla asked confused, “are you having second thoughts?” Kaiden looked at them deflated, he felt like these two women wanted to suck all his energy dry, he would have not mind helping free his father if everything didn’t seem too suspicious. “I want to think about it,

[Third person POV]Kaiden Beckett alre4ady known as the next CEO of Beckett Inc, and still with all the pressure the media and everyone has been putting on him since Zoey left for Italy instead of preparing to take over the company.It was clear who was going to be the CEO now, he was going to start an internship at his father’s company after the end of this year, before going to business school.Kai in the other hand was in the school basketball team, he was doing great, one would say he was the star of the team.He graduated high school valedictorian and his parents had been proud, Zoey couldn’t make it to the graduation, but she sent him a gift to commemorate his graduation.He started with the internship later that week, it was a bit challenging than he had hoped but he enjoyed every new lesson he learned.He decided to take a year working for his father before he goes to business school.One day he got a call from an anonymous number, he ignored the call many times but it just ke

[Third POV] Palma’s plan was very simple, to make Zoey embarrass herself at the party so everyone can hate and bully her. she already knew a few girls that hated her. Palma’s plan was simple, she was to have her team create an environment that was easy to humiliate Zoey, and after that she would be the new queen Bee. Meanwhile, Zoey’s parents were happy that she was finally going out, the boys had already started doing sleepovers with their friends whilst Zoey just preferred being with her grandmother, it was as if she knew their time was limited. “It is okay honey, you are 18 already, you can go to the party,” her mother says happily. “Yeah, it will help you relax,” her father reassured, “how about I take you shopping for the party?” With the help of her father and her friend Palma, Zoey was able to prepare for the party, it was her first party and she hoped it went well. Nathan’s home was quite beautiful, she liked the way he had decorated the home for the party. “This is n

[Third POV] Zoey Beckett, though she is the daughter of two of the most prominent figures in the country, she had never felt like truly a Beckett. She wasn’t as artistic as her mother, she did appreciate art, but a different form of art. She didn’t want to be a successor of her father too, yes, she was her father’s child, but she always felt like the family company was better suited for Kaiden, who was interested in the company. Kai was not really interested in the company, maybe it was because of the trauma he experienced 5 years ago, but he changed. She had hoped he would be a bit interested in long life and having fun, but he had become very dim. And now he she is contemplating if she should choose art school or business school, she knows her father would be like, “choose whatever you like’ but what she likes is not even on the roster. And the teachers could be so judgmental, they already have the mentality that given she is the oldest she will inherit the company, it makes h

It was a mistake; I didn’t mean to.”“Hey…” Clayton says trying to get to his son, but h was stopped by a police officer.“Sir, you are not allowed anywhere near the suspect,” the police officer says, getting attention from both Wayne and Kaleah.“What……” Kaleah sa
