Note: This chapter has sex between two men.
Soren POV
I woke up feeling my pulse burning, and my body was weak, as if I'd lost the same amount of blood I'd used in my vision. I took a deep breath, struggling to open my eyes and pay attention to my surroundings, and the first thing I noticed was that Victor wasn't there.
I fought against the weakness and after a few minutes I managed to get up, the light in the room was low, in a dim light and that helped me. I walk to the bathroom, look in the mirror and my skin is paler than usual, my lips have a purple tinge and I can see some veins appearing under the skin.
All this is an indication of how Bond is working, making me much more human. Even at this moment, my appearance is that of a human who
Note: Chapter with mentions of pedophilia.Hoff POVWorking with the Necromancers isn't an easy task, but it's something I was attracted to from the first time I was offered the opportunity. After all, it's much better to walk around freely and have access to powers I never thought I'd reach.Klaus was a good ruler, he usually left me free to do what I wanted, as long as I kept my part of the border safe, didn't get in the way of politics in general and left the big packs alone.That's why many feared me and tried to stay as far away from my clutches as possible. After all, anyone who crossed my path didn't have a happy ending, but one full of pain and suffering.In fact, one of my favorite shows w
Note: This chapter contains strong torture scenes.Hoff POVI spent two hours talking to my mate, explaining to her how the werewolf kingdom works, since she isn't one herself. My Lycan was thrilled to be near her, and that was enough for me to endure the conversation, as I certainly don't have that much patience.As soon as I left the room, I had their meal delivered, as always, only women were allowed to be around. I don't want to pollute my mate's mind, I'll teach her everything she needs to know, everything she needs to do to make me happy.Being next to her is torture in itself because I can't help imagining the various positions in which I'm going to possess her, imagining her on her knees with my cock in her mouth... Her lips begging me
Soren POVI feel the blood invade my mouth and I put my hand against the wall as I balance myself to stand up. Something is wrong, I can feel the power around my body and my own blood is fighting against it."Have I been poisoned?" I asked quietly, unable to believe that something like this could be happening.Absolutely no one had access to my food, everything was done on this floor and the House of Carnations was responsible for inspection."Soren!" I heard Victor's voice echoing in the distance.I tried to raise my head, but I just leaned against the wall."What kind of spell or poison have they put on me?" I asked, almost voicelessly.
Klaus POVI can feel the chains that bind me, the same ones I use to keep Ghost in the back of my mind, which means that this time it's me who's trapped. I can hear the words he says and his feelings, and it's desperate not to be able to react to anything.How could he let himself be taken in by Soren and Victor? Ayla was ours first, no matter how much Ghost rejected her, I never had that! Apart from the fact that I taught her how to feel pleasure, I took her off Julian and Hoff's hands!How could Ghost keep bending over? It was pathetic, and that's why he's so weak without me!I finally heard what I needed to, that soon I would be free, without this necklace to help Ghost control me, I would be able to fight! Surely Ayla would be mine again!
Soren POVEverything was ready, my power with Ishtar's was enough to cleanse Ghost of the corruption that was inside him and his human part was practically dead. Klaus had made too many mistakes, and the weight of his guilt had simply made him disappear.If he ever comes back, it will be to see a changed world where he will have to bear the consequences of his actions. Ghost bowed, even though he knew he might have something to do with Ayla.Whatever happened in his mind, it made him realize that to stand in my and Victor's way was to be defeated and forgotten and his loyalty to Ayla was too high for him to do something like that.In a way, I feel sorry for Ghost, for everything he's been through and I know I have a part in it, because I taught Klaus how to
Soren POVBefore I could realize it, Victor pulled me close to him and I saw a strange hand emerge from the ground, trying to hold me down. It's not like the undead we've seen before, no, this is something much worse, something unholy.To make sure that nothing like this would happen, I created a barrier beneath our feet, so when we walked and this time the attack hit directly on the barrier, I shuddered with each hit, instinctively not wanting to see what exactly was attacking.I swallowed because I knew that this was made of living people and that somehow this monstrosity was trapping the souls of the people who made up the monster. Victor looked at me, confused, not believing what we were seeing.I closed my eyes and began to concentrate on the Light, se
Note: This chapter takes place as soon as the characters separate!Ghost POVAs we advance, I can hear the sound of battle, howls, screams, and the smell of blood intensifying, and those who approach are stopped by the small group that surrounds me.It's not that I can't fight, but I'm saving my energy because I know I'm going to need all my strength to be able to face Hoff. One of the important things for someone with my title is that the two parts are in balance, or at least exist. With my human part gone, it's as if I've lost half my power, but that's the consequences of the choices Klaus has made and there's nothing I can do to help him now.It didn't take long for us to get to where Hoff was, and it couldn't be a better place than t
Soren POVI shook my head, trying to clear the confusion taking over my mind.'Let me take over.' Strïth asked me.I just agreed, without saying anything and I can feel my body changing, increasing in size, as the Shadows and Lights begin to dance around us and I look at the one who betrayed me."No!" I hear James' voice. "Don't let him finish!"Then I feel the Necromancer's hand on my back and the pain is intense because he is interfering with my energy, my soul. This, together with James' ability, is enough to make Strïth lose his strength and I return to my human form.Several chains made of this black smoke surround me and Victor too, I see him trapped
Ayla POVEvery step I take away from the imperial bedroom, my heart races, this is a dream come true, and I still can't believe it's really happening. A part of me is afraid that it's all just a dream and that I'll end up waking up on the cold floor of Julian's pack.The aisles are full of flowers that are typical of spring, as this was the first thing I decided, that the theme of the wedding would be the season when most flowers bloom.In addition, of course, to having the flowers from each of the houses, even those that bloom at specific times... Ishtar had already helped me with this, making sure they were all bright and at their peak.I stop at the window to see how happy everyone is, with the music echoing even as high as I am. Most of them are my subj
Ayla POVThe days passed in the blink of an eye, even though I felt weaker with each passing day, as the amount of auras weighed heavily on my shoulders.The potions that fairies give me are very strong and every time I take them I end up sleeping for the whole period, so I started taking them every morning, as soon as I woke up, because it added to the strength that Ghost was feeding me.It was only because of this that I was able to spend the afternoon and part of the evening with my guests and so many races had arrived, the Castle was lit up with so much happiness and so much diversity.Gradually, everyone got on board with the theme of the wedding, "Spring". The flowers have been hand-picked because they symbolize what we are, there are all the flowers
Victor POVSeeing Ayla interact with the rulers of the Faerie Kingdom is history in the making, and I'm sure the other Kingdoms will be more afraid of how gigantic our Kingdom is becoming.The alliance with the Kingdom of the Fairies is something very unexpected, as well as important because their magic is just as powerful as that of the Kingdom of the Wizards and the Witches. It means that in this war we are taking several more steps towards victory.These revelations add to what Ghost has told us. Of course, we're not happy to know that others can see how our bond is doing and that worries me because when the Kingdom of the Wizards and the Witches arrive, it will be very clear and that will make us targets for attacks.My mate's sadness resonates in my ch
Ayla POVI could feel something different as I approached the Hall of Thrones and when we entered it became clearer why there was music in the air, something like what I've heard in some Soul stones, but this one is different.There are so many different voices and I don't understand what they're saying, but I don't need to, because I can feel the emotions they want to convey and as I looked at the Rulers it became clearer that the music came from them and was made for them.The pain is hidden behind happy, fast notes, with a lively beat that the other fairies follow instinctively, and it's almost impossible to perceive the undertones of sadness and melancholy.The voices want to cheer up their Rulers after a sad event, and I can connect with that because I
Victor POVI let my aura flow towards Soren so that he calms down because Ghost is right and Soren hates it when he's challenged. No matter who it was."You're right, Ghost," I said before Soren could say anything. "We really need to decide on the next in command. A lot of decisions have been put on the back burner by all the situations we've been through."Ayla is feeling guilty because she knows that Ghost only did what we asked, and she thinks she could have done more to help him."But this isn't the place for something like that. I'll arrange a meeting in the afternoon with the Heads of Houses and also with the leaders of the strongest Packs in your Kingdom." I continued speaking.Ghost looked at Ayla intens
Ayla POVI wake up and realize immediately that I'm not in the imperial bedroom and the smell of Ghost is everywhere, enveloping me and my heart squeezes because I had hoped this wouldn't have to happen and I couldn't hold back the silent tears that started to flow.I'm feeling so miserable, simply because I'm not strong enough to regenerate on my own. Then I feel a blanket being placed over me, the smell of Soren and Victor is there, and at the same moment, I feel better.It's as if I had betrayed my mates before, but now it's as if they are embracing me and understanding the situation. In parts, I can't believe I have such good and understanding mates.I lay there for a few more minutes before getting up and looking around; the room has a medieval style a
Ayla POVThe days have passed and more and more I feel my body aching and hurting when I take the potions, but at least I'm managing to withstand the auras of the various types of creatures and beings that are arriving to take part in the wedding.Of course, I don't meet all of them, just the most important ones for now and always in the Hall of Thrones, because there I feel much stronger, and I'm not so affected by the auras.Of course, I'm sleeping more and so the surrounding security has doubled. I always have a few soldiers around me when Victor and Soren aren't around. Even with Ghost present, everyone agreed that this extra security would be better.I didn't pass out in any of the encounters, but I was always drained at the end of them. This shows how
Ayla POVThe meeting to choose the flowers was kind of fun, as there are many types and many ways to create bouquets, and it was a bit difficult to choose the ones that made the most sense for the wedding.Of course, there can't be too many magical flowers, as that would add more weight to my aura and probably hurt me more, so I decided on just two flowers around the Castle that mean many things, the Smeraldo and Selene's Tears, even though we have few Tears, it's still an important flower.The two flowers will even make up part of my bouquet, and it's going to be beautiful, I never thought my life would change so much. After all, I was a mere slave, with no prospect of anything but dying.Living only to serve others, without ever uttering a sound or a word
Soren POVThe meeting with the Heads of House was extremely boring, one of the few things I hate about being Emperor, as these meetings can often go on for days, as each one wants to be better than the other and have the upper hand.Although each House had its function within the Kingdom, the Heads always wanted to have a greater influence. Even more so with Skyler's problem, I need to put someone else in charge of the House of Poppies, but the person I choose will be my third-in-command.For a while now, I've been thinking about putting Ghost as my third-in-command and choosing another leader for the House of Poppies, but the problem is that this is going to cause some strife among my subjects, whether they're Heads of House or not.I know the Lycan race w
