Savage snarls reverberated through the air, drowning out all other sounds. Clumps of fur were ripped and thrown in all directions, a gruesome dance of carnage as blood sprayed through the air. The hungry frenzy showed no signs of relenting, as teeth gnashed and sharp nails raked across fur in a primal display of violence.

I wanted to help ... maybe I could use my gifts I got from Darren? But the searing pain brought me to my knees. I cried out in pain. It felt like my stomach was being ripped apart. Everything blurred in and out. The room was muffled momentarily. As my hearing came back, I realized I didn’t hear the sound of fighting anymore. I glanced up to see a pile of lycans laying on the ground. Standing next to them was Lyle’s brown lycan. He turned and looked at me.

Our eyes met as I let out a shuddering breath. The pain was like nothing I had ever experienced. I thought Alfred’s infidelity was bad, but this was far worse. I rested my cheek on the cold stone floor, watching as

    We had been glued together for three days. Three blissful days of divine exhaustion, heavenly pleasure, and private time that left my body completely content. We had finally parted, and it felt like a piece was missing. I was used to the constant feeling of having him inside me and already I missed it.We slept for hours, until the afternoon sun finally stirred us back to life. I rolled over to look at my incredibly sexy mate to see his concerned eyes were already looking at me.“What is it?”“After a heat cycle, there is a high chance of you becoming pregnant. It isn’t just the constant sex. You’re also more fertile.”I immediately felt insecure. Why was he looking at me like that? Did he not want to have children with me? Was it because he was afraid of passing down his curse? We had talked about children before, and he always said he was happy enough just having me. I had thought it was because of my miscarriage, but maybe there really was more to it.“I already assumed this was a

    Darren and I had just finished eating when the door to the dining room opened up.“Lyle!” I jumped up from my seat and ran over to him. I gave him a big hug, ignoring the grumbles from my protesting, jealous mate, gods I love him. But Lyle was becoming someone special to me. As if he were a brother too. He might have started to go into rut, but he was fighting against himself. It wasn’t just for himself and his brother, but for me too. I appreciated him.“You trying to get me killed?” Lyle chuckled, giving me a small hug back. “I know it’s been a few days, but are you okay?”“Yes. Thank you for protecting me. Even when you went feral, you were still struggling and I just wanted you to know I appreciate you.” I watched as he grinned, rubbing the back of his neck.“You are going to make me blush.”“Okay, that’s enough.” Darren’s voice sounded annoyed as he got up from the table. He came up from behind me and I felt his arms pulling me to his chest. He snorted air from his nose in a pouti

    Lyle was completely on board with my brilliant plan and everything was ready. Now it was time to invite the guest of honor.“Cleo.” I smiled as I waved her down. I could see her eye twitch, but she plastered on her disgustingly sweet smile and walked over to me.“How are you feeling?” she asked.“Much better now. And after the few days I spent attached to my mate, possibly expecting a pup.” I noticed her eyes widen as she smiled. Her smile now almost looked like a snarl as she struggled with herself.“Well, isn’t that lovely?”“Yes, we are both excited. But you know how you offered to help me before with lessons? I would love it if you could help me today.” I noticed she almost seemed to be gritting her teeth.“No escort today?” she asked, glancing behind me.“I had to ditch him, so we have to hurry. I was hoping you could show me the prison. I know there is a role where the queen is supposed to pardon and read them their last rites. I was hoping you could show me this process.”“I th

    “Oh, I forgot. I met a younger boy on the servant stairs. I think it was Cleo’s mate’s younger brother. We need to go find him. He looked upset because he couldn’t find his brother.”“Already took care of it. I had Rodney find him and tell him not to worry, that his brother would be out in a week.” Lyle beamed at me.“Well look at you … on top of things.” I giggled as I looked over the railing. I stared at the setting sun with a small sigh. “Darren has been gone all day.”“I did the best I could, but there are some things that require his sole attention. Plus, he had to speak with Ivan, too.”I pursed my lips together as I remembered the werebear. “There’s a problem, huh?”Lyle came and leaned his elbows on the edge next to me. “We don’t know that for a fact.”“Lyle!” We whipped our heads around to see Tim coming up to us. “You won’t believe this. Darren controlled his temper!”“What?!” Lyle’s eyes popped open wide as I listened intently.“Yes, just a bit ago in his meeting, there was

    “I think she deserved worse. Much worse.” Darren growled as he sat his pen down.“I’m not saying she didn’t, but I felt this was a fitting punishment. Plus, it also offered an innocent man his freedom. What they decide to do from here on out is up to them. But Cleo will most likely be pregnant now. She will no longer be able to be a Waiting Lady and will be forced to leave. She will have no choice but to either live with her mate or go back to her family. And if her family is anything like her, they will not welcome her with open arms.” I had thought about it a lot, and I decided I would give her the choice. She can now choose to be happy with her mate and embrace her new life, or she can live a miserable life. In either case, it got her out of the castle, and that was all I really cared about.“It’s clever.” Ivan leaned on Darren’s desk. “This way there isn’t any trouble with the nobles, but it also solves a problem. Honestly, I am very impressed. Well done.”“Thank you!” Yes, I was

    It took two weeks for all the species representatives to arrive. Two anxious weeks while the neutral village of Lyionette remained under the vampires’ control. I knew Darren didn’t like waiting to act, but at the same time, this was bigger than one village. What was being formed right now was a unity for the future.Ivan had gone to get the last representative. I didn’t know we were missing anyone, but he said this person was very important.I glanced over at Lyle as he walked me down the hall. “Should I really be attending this meeting? I feel like I’m not the crowned queen yet, so it might not be appropriate.” I listened as Lyle laughed.“Two things, ‘princess’,” he said, winking at me. “One, you’re the king’s marked mate, and we’re just waiting for the formalities to make you the official queen. And two, Darren wants you there ... he needs you there. I think you’re one of the most important people to be there, to make sure Darren doesn’t lose his temper and cause a war among all th

    Amber eyes were on me as the Vampire King made his way toward Darren. He looked as if he was in his thirties, but I knew this man was actually centuries old. He walked right past Darren and stopped behind my chair. I turned sideways in my seat to see him extend his hand to me.“My name is Finn, and—” He raised his brows up expectantly.“Allissa,” I answered, taking his hand politely. His thumb pressed against my fingers, as a smile spread over his lips.“Well, talk about coming full circle.” He grinned. I glanced at Darren, not understanding at all, but I could see that he was confused as well.“You’ve touched her long enough.” Darren pulled my hand away, giving Finn a warning look.“Of course, I mean no harm, but I find all of this very intriguing. I’m sure some of you do as well,” Finn said, looking up at the other representatives. “For those who know ... and I can see quite a few of you do.” His eyes landed on the fairy man before resting back on me.“Know what?”“Darren, have you

    His tongue attacked me urgently as his hands roamed over my body. The electric sparks were everything. How could anyone reject their fated mate? Who would deny themselves of the wonderful sensations that only they could bring?! He brought out a side of me that I never knew was there. And the best part? The sex was ALWAYS amazing. I would never get enough of him, and it was an amazing feeling to know that he was my partner in this life.“Ally, I don’t know what to say. I can’t believe what my family did. I am so sorry—”“Dare, don’t.” I panted against his lips. If this man only knew what was going through my mind. I wasn’t thinking about the stupid past. I was thinking of all the ways I could play with his dick right now. “You are a great king and—”“I shouldn’t even be in this position.”I giggled. “You were always meant to be my mate, and because of that you were always meant to be the king.”“Everything that happened to you—” He frowned, shaking his head. “Your life would have been

    I had no clue who or what I was looking at. A small, delicate person? Or something more like a fairy? The figure was small, no taller than a child, but it radiated an otherworldly power that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. Delicate, translucent wings fluttered behind her, her skin as white as ivory. She wore a white, shimmering gown that flowed around her. Her face was impossibly beautiful, with high cheekbones and almond-shaped eyes that seemed to glow with an inner fire. But it was her expression that truly captivated me. A fierce determination and cold detachment that sent a shiver down my spine.The way she was staring at me almost looked aggressive, which made me defensive.“Who are you? What do you want with me?” I demanded, injecting as much authority into my voice as I could muster.“I haven’t decided yet.” Her voice was cold as her eyes fixated on mine.“You haven’t decided who you are, or you haven’t decided what you want with me? I asked you two questions

    “Is this really necessary?” I pouted as I felt the heavy robe draped over my shoulders. It was not only heavy, but I felt like I was in a sauna.“It’s traditional. All of the crowned royals wore this robe.” Lyle’s blue eyes sparkled in amusement as I grumbled. “The weight represents the burden of leadership. Besides, you look rather fetching in it. Like a true queen.”“A sweaty, irritable queen,” I muttered, but then a realization came over me. “It’s never been washed … has it?”Lyle boomed out a loud laugh. “No, it’s not washed. It’s only worn for a few hours for the ceremony, and—”“I’m caked in a stranger’s sweat.”“Darren wore it last.” Lyle smirked at me.“It doesn’t have his scent.” I sighed, staring at the mirror. There was still no message from Darren. He knew I would be worried, and I knew he would reach out to me as soon as he could. I knew he was alive, but that was the extent of it. How bad were things for them right now? “It feels weird to be doing this without him here.”

    My first night away from Darren was torture. I tossed and turned,missing his warmth next to me. I was so dependent on him. Every day away from him was going to be hard. I knew that, but I guess I wasn’t fully prepared for the loneliness. I was missing a piece of me, and I couldn’t be whole without him.Lyle stayed with me until the early morning hours, trying to keep my mind off Darren. He put on movies and told me stories. But as soon as he left, Darren was all I could think about. How was the battle? Was he resting? Did he get hurt? So many questions, and there was no way to get answers. I had to wait for him to contact me.I looked at myself in the mirror as I finished applying my lip gloss. Today, I was going to be crowned queen. I didn’t look like a queen … I didn’t feel like a queen. I was just me. I wonder if all leaders felt like this?“This is as good as I get,” I said to myself with a shrug, looking at my reflection. I opened the door to my bedroom and there was Lyle, leaning

    I was surprised as we walked through the tower. The place was beautiful. It was well decorated and had every luxury. I mean … lock me up with Darren in here and I could stay forever. The punishment of being here was two things: shame and freedom. Other than that, Winifred could easily live a comfortable life here. And maybe that was an option. But if she had been brainwashed, then there was a chance to reunite their family.As we entered the grand room, my eyes landed on a group of maids meticulously cleaning every nook and cranny. The sunlight peeking through the windows was dimmed by the richly colored tapestries that adorned them, casting an eerie glow over the space. The only source of light came from the flickering flames of the fireplace, where Milo sat in a lush red armchair, his gaze fixated on the dancing embers.“Dad, have you eaten anything?” Lyle asked as he approached him. Milo didn’t respond and simply kept staring at the orange glow.I grabbed a chair and pulled it up be

    “It’s my father. He’s depressed, and I don’t know what to do. He isn’t eating. Issy. He is taking this thing with mom so hard. I’ve never seen him like this.” I could see the pain in Lyle’s eyes. He also looked tired. I was sure it had been a heavy burden on him, running the kingdom in a time of war.“I’m here to help. I’m not going anywhere. As you can see, the little pup is growing quickly. I think I’m a bit farther along. This happened before I went into heat, even though Darren used precaution. Unless, because we are both powerful lycans, things have sped up?”“All lycan pregnancies are different, but royal pregnancies have always been unpredictable. And you are the true royal … I’m guessing that has a lot to do with this.” I listened as he sighed. “How is Darren?”“Getting ready to head into Catata as we speak.” I pursed my lips together. “I want to be by his side.”“I do, too,” Lyle admitted. “I’m glad you’re here. I can use your help. There is also one more thing … and I hate t

    The next few days were busy. They created a new strategy and decided they would head to Catata after the naga arrived. From there, they would continue to push into vampire territory, going in aggressive and hard. They intended to launch a full assault with the sorcerers and fairies, then come in with the muscles. They had created new enchantments for the soldiers and protection spells against the demons, pulling up the old archives of what they used before and adding to them. The element of surprise was now gone, and they were better prepared. Hopefully, this meant no more heavy losses for our alliance.My nights with Darren had been pure fire. His lips touched every inch of my body. He whispered how much he loved me over my skin, as if he were trying to engrave the words on my body. Our lovemaking had always been passionate, but these past nights … there was an urgency, a desperation that left me breathless.“Thinking of me?” Darren whispered as his arms pulled me to his chest.“I was

    “I—”“I asked you to stay with me,” he growled against my hair. I could feel the small tremble in his fingers, which showed me how upset he was. “Dammit Ally, do you know how worried I was?!”“I didn’t exactly go gallivanting off into mortal peril. Unlike some people I could mention. Now you know how it feels to wake up and the other isn’t there.” I lifted my chin up at him and poked him in the chest. I felt the gentle vibrations of his tired laugh as he let out a sigh.“You win.” He yawned and I grabbed his hand, dragging him back to bed.“You should be resting.” I pushed him down and he pulled me on top of him. He rested his hands on my hips and looked at me pointedly.“Did you have to pee? I would have walked you to the—”“No, I didn’t, but if I did, I wouldn’t have woken you up for such a silly thing.” His eyes looked at me expectantly and I knew he wasn’t going to go to sleep without an answer.“I smelled my old pack, and I went out in search of it. Bastian is here. I guess he bro

    We all decided to walk back to camp, in case there were others that needed our help. Darren had his arm wrapped tightly against my waist. He was exhausted, since he hadn’t slept and had gone straight into another battle.“Are you okay?” I asked, his green eyes flipping to mine with a smile.“I’m fine. Nothing a little sleep won’t cure.”“We’re going to be staying at the camp for a few days to strategize. We’re also waiting for the naga to join us.”“Why haven’t they arrived yet?” Darren growled, his annoyance evident.Dayanara’s lips quirked into a smirk. “Ah, yes. Their general is currently...indisposed. Molting, if you can believe it. They’ll join us when he’s finished shedding his skin.”I wrinkled my nose at the mental image. “Charming.”“Nature isn’t always pretty, darling,” Dayanara quipped with a wink.Finn glanced back to look at me. “How is Ivan holding up?”“I think he’s pretty shaken up over Anton. He’s trying to be strong, though,” I answered, Dayanara nodding in agreement.

    Dayanara’s tongue clicked as we soared through the sky. “Witch, hmph. I am far beyond a simple witch.”“Umm, where are you taking me?” I asked, sensing she didn’t mean me any harm.She turned her head, a smile on her lips. “You don’t strike me as the type to wait for her mate to return. How about we go find him?”I could have kissed this woman. My smile widened, and I felt tears of gratitude prick my eyes. “Thank you!”“I couldn’t stand seeing your worried face any longer. I heard you’re pregnant. Don’t worry, I will keep you safe.”“It isn’t like I can’t fight now. Darren left without me … I would have gone, too,” I grumbled. “Last night, I decided it would be best for me to return to the Lycan Kingdom, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t have fought today.”“It’s difficult.” Dayanara sighed, turning her head slightly. “It’s a tough choice to step back instead of fighting. You’re making the right choice for your family. I’m sure your mate just wanted you safe … just like you want him sa
