Hunter informed Queen Ella and Prince Stephen when the location gem was ready, and they both planned to visit the east by the end of the week. Saturday arrived sooner than Queen Ella and Prince Stephen expected, so they went to the east. When they arrived, they were greeted with surprised looks from the servants and guards, which was to be expected because Queen Ella had not been to the east in ages and Prince Stephen had not been to the east in over thirteen years. They were both taken to the waiting room so Queen Elena could be informed of their arrival before being taken to the throne room to see her. "Nothing has changed since I left," Prince Stephen muttered to himself as he scanned the waiting room. "Will you be okay seeing her again?" Queen Ella inquired, her gaze fixed on Prince Stephen which is filled with concern for the young Prince. "It'll be fine, Aunt Ella," Prince Stephen assured her, gently squeezing her hand. A guard walked into the throne room quickly to inform
Two days later........... "My Queen, we're all set to go find the girl." Talia said as she knelt in front of Queen Elena, who was sitting on her throne. "All right, leave now so you can get there before midnight and have the element of surprise."Queen Elena gave the order and Talia rose to her feet "Yes, my Queen," Talia said as she left the throne room, and they began their journey from the east to the territory of the Red-Moon Pack. Adrian was unaware that Talia had betrayed him yet again. Talia and her men waited in the shadows for one of them to leave the castle so they could attack and capture Serena, while Adrian was to be brought in alive or dead; it didn't really matter, but Thorne preferred him dead. Adrian, who was still scouting the grounds for Serena, didn't notice any of Talia's men because he was too preoccupied with his current task to detect their scents or movements. When he came into their line of sight, they ambushed him and fired a couple of wolfsbane-laced bul
"How do you expect me to believe you? When I'm unsure of how to verify your identity, warlock," Serena inquired, hoping to find a way to flee and return to the cabin without him following her. "You shouldn't be afraid of me because if I wanted to hurt you, I would have already done it." Serena's anxiety was not alleviated by Prince Stephen's statement. "I can't go with you because someone is expecting me to return, and if anything happens to me, it won't end well for you," Serena said, hoping to scare him away. "Oh I know, I don't want to cross him, so your protector Adrian can come with us. My Aunt just wants you to be safe." Prince Stephen tried to reason with her, but he didn't blame her for not trusting him; he was a stranger after all. "If you choose to come with me, my Aunt, your Aunt will explain everything, so I will be here by midnight waiting. If I don't come, I'll have my answer." Stephen said as he vanished right in front of her, despite the fact that she had been a witc
He lowered his head and gently pressed his lips against hers. He sensed her reluctance, her anger, so he took it slowly, teasing and pulling tenderly at her lips, careful not to lose control with her because he needed to take it slowly in order not to push her away from them with his impatience. His hands caressed her luscious curves, which had captivated him since the first time he saw her. As he deepened the kiss, a deep rumbling sound arose from his throat, sounding somewhat like a growl. He softly bit her lips as a small moan escaped her mouth as he drew her closer, his hand moving to her hair, pulling but not too hard that it hurt. Serena responded by opening her mouth, allowing his tongue to explore her mouth, eliciting small moans from her. He then broke the kiss, allowing them to breathe, his desire filled eyes meeting hers. "I know he hurt you, but give us one more chance and we'll spend the rest of our lives proving how sorry we are, my little hybrid mate." She smiled as
"What do you know about Adrian?" Serena asked before Adrian could respond, a smile spreading across his little protective mate's face. Gosh, how did he get so lucky? Adrian thought as he took her hands in his, gently squeezing to show him she was grateful for asking on his behalf. "You finally chose to speak, I thought you were going to make your mate do all the talking," Queen Ella said with a smile on her face, "you truly look like Tiara, you're like her exact copy which is not biologically possible." "I could, but I don't want to; he isn't comfortable around people of royal status, so I'm speaking on his behalf; as for looking like my mother, I've already taken a lot from her; why not take her looks as well?" Serena jokes, but Adrian knows it wasn't a joke; her statement had a double meaning. "I see, moving on concerning your mate, I only know why his pack was killed," Queen Ella said, and Serena felt Adrian's hand tighten around hers; she looked up to him with concern in her eyes
When they returned to the cabin, Serena excused herself to go take a shower because she needed time alone to collect her thoughts. Will her alliance with Queen Ella and Prince Stephen truly help her exact her mother's revenge on Queen Elena? Will they also assist her in bringing down Thorne, who has a connection to Queen Elena? Because Adrian, too, needs closure for what Thorne did to him and his pack. Serena let out a small sigh as these thoughts passed through her mind. As she stepped out of the shower, she wrapped a clean towel around herself. Maybe she shouldn't be concerned; everything will fall into place if it's meant to be. Serena left the bathroom and went into her room to change into something more appropriate. She wanted to dress up a little, so she wore a red blouse and a black lace skirt that ended just below her knee. She looked in the mirror and was pleased with what she saw. She exited the room to join Adrian in the kitchen, who was preparing dinner at the stove. "You
He approached her and placed his warm hands on the waistband of her skirt. Serena moaned at the contact of his hands against her skin, making him grin at how responsive her body was to him. He reached for the zippier on the skirt, slowly pulling it down, letting his fingers graze her skin as the zippier went down. The skirt fell to the floor, and he reached for her hand to guide her out of it before picking it up and throwing it on the nearest surface. Serena stood motionless, watching him slowly remove and discard his shirt before returning his gaze to her. She squealed as he drew her closer to his body, pressing her breasts against his bare chest. Serena could feel his erection and the size of him pressing into her inner thigh. His breath brushed against her lips, almost kissing her, and his hands caressed her back. He then slid his hands down her back to her ass and gently squeezed before lifting her up and allowing her to wrap her legs around his waist. "You have such a beautif
"My Queen, no one has heard from Talia or the men in two days; should we send more men to find them?" Elena's advisor inquired. Queen Elena had told them that Talia and her men were on a surveying mission, so it was a surprise that they hadn't arrived by now, which made Queen Elena worried that something had gone wrong with their true mission. "No need for that, Belinda; I'm sure Talia and her men are safe and will return to us soon." Queen Elena said in a calm tone to assuage the advisors' concerns, but she was far from calm; Talia should have returned by now, or did the girl or lycan manage to overpower her? But that would be impossible because Talia was a very experienced and powerful witch and a mere beginner witch or no name lycan of a dead race couldn't have gotten the upper hand over Talia. Queen Elena pondered, but she was interrupted when a guard rushed in. "My Queen, My Queen, a few of the soldiers have returned, but they are all badly injured, and captain Talia isn't with
After the war had ended, everything slowly went back to the way it was before, Elena and Killian were dead, their armies destroyed and Killian’s research facility were all confiscated. There is a saying that goes: scars fade but Adam’s death will be a scar that will take a while to fade. Even if he lived his life doing a lot of bad things in order to save his sister and wanted to actually atone for his sins and this was the only way he knew how, dying In order to save anyone else from dying at the hands of Killian’s lycan minions.Adam's coffin was buried in the cemetery from fallen heroes even if his body wasn't able to be found by the order of Queen Ella, and no one objected. When Anna was told of her brother's death the little girl broke down and all she said was, "At least he did it for a good cause."Princess Lisa was able to calm her down and they were both brought to attend Adam's funeral but it was also a time of joy because the two girls were happy to see that everyone was aw
"How far are they ahead of us?" Lucian asked one of the guys, who were turning away from the handful of luczns chasing them, if they killed one two more would appear, they came at them like a never ending stream of water"Two miles…not much more than that," Adam responded as he turned to throw a fireball at the incoming zombies, not only did they have to deal with freakishly strong lycan, they also had zombies to deal with."Don't this fuckers get tired?" Stephen yelled over the chaos."Apparently not," Lucian muttered, stopping to ripped the head off a zombie that had approached him."Serena needs to get rid of Elena soon, because the lycans her getting closer," Adam said as she threw another fireball at a zombie.A howl came from a distance as the group turned back to see a group of lycan approaching them"Fuck! they found us!" Stephen yelled "You don't need to fucking yell we can see them!" Lucian yelled back glaring at Stephen."Someone is grumpy—" Stephen muttered under his breat
Elena and Killian headed for the west after days had passed, the scientists had perfected the serum and his lycans were ready to be dispatched, some guards from the east and north that were loyal to Elena were present at Telford getting ready for war."The day has come for us to finally take our revenge on our enemies, dear Elena, and we will be victorious!" Killian grinned with evil relish as they got into a carriage with the lycans and soldiers following behind them.Queen Ella had already received news that Elena and Killian were there, her army was ready, it was a mixture of vampires, lycans, mages and Queen Ella’s men.Queen Ella approached the podium to address the army, "I thank you all for joining me in this, let's charge and give the people the justice they deserved" Queen Ella said as the army erupted in cheers.An hour later…Adrian, Serena, Adrian and Lucian were in the front row of the army as their gaze fell on Elena and Killian who had already arrived."Everyone of you
News of what had happened at the council headquarters had spread round the whole region and the whole world had shook; Elena and Killian had killed every last one of the Council members and every species demanded justice for their leaders' deaths.A representative of each species were summoned to the north by Queen Ella. She was going to reveal Serena’s identity and ask who would follow her and fight Killian and Elena.Some representative arrived apart from the Elf, Fae and Fairy regions, they were to fucking proud to proud to accept help from anyone.So the son of the vampire King had arrived, the lycan delegate who was against the throne, the Prince of the mages and Some North delegates.The guest were ushered into the throne room by the Royal guards and everyone was present, Adrian with Serena by his side, Stephen with Belle by his side and Adam who was standing in one corner observing the guest."I welcome you to the west,'' Queen Ella said as she looked down at the crowd."It's a
Council annual meeting…. Elena was the first to arrive at the council headquarters, it was the day of the annual council meeting and Killian had informed her how the plan would go. They would kill each council members from the weakest to the strongest and strongest of them all was King Alexander the vampire King, he was known to have multiple abilities, the the second on the list was Elena because she was the Grand High Witch, the third on the list was King Damien the mage king and Queen Seraphina the Elve Queen and finally Killian and Sabella the fairy queen where ranked last.Everyone was already seated and they were waiting for Killian, Elena took her seat beside Sabella, she was one of the nice rulers, Elena sounded her bubbly personality annoying."Queen Elena, we weren’t expecting you to come with all that had happened" Seraphina said, staring at Elena in disapproval."I have a right to be here Queen Seraphina, even if there is an investigation going on, this isn't your regu
After their meeting was over Adrian and Serena went to their room after eating dinner. Once they were in their room Serena wrapped her hands around Adrian placing a quick peck on his lips Then He bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly—and still that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. "Serena, I want you" Adrian whispered. When she still said nothing, he brushed his mouth against the hollow of her temple. He traced the line of her cheekbone, his lips were against hers. "Make love to me Adrian, I want you too" she said before reaching up to wrap her hands around his neck and pulling him down so their lips could meet. He kissed her gently, carefully, but it wasn’t gentleness she wanted, not now, not after all this time, and she knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then his arms circled her, gathering her against him as he deepened the kiss, as the
Belle didn't even know when the tears started falling from her eyes, he didn't deserve all he had been through what type of mother would do that to her own son, so this was the reason he left the east and came to the north. Belle, who was still in tears, watched as the scene changed.She was now in a small room and when her gaze scanned the room she found Stephen standing in the at the corot the room staring at the wall, he looked like a lifeless zombieSeeing him like that killed her, he looked lost."Stephen," Belle called out but got no answer."I know it hurts, I know you are in pain, but the people you love are hurting because you are in pain, they miss you, I kiss you bugging me, calling me doc, we all need you to wake up" Belle said as she took steps closer to him."You know before I came to the castle, I had a little sister, she was so energetic and loved everything life had to offer" Belle sighed before she continued, "But she fell sick when she turned six, nonone knew what w
Then a knock came from the door and Alison came out of a room, Belle guessed it was her bedroom, as she opened the door shocked crossed her face..“My queen---" she exclaimed, surprised that she had come to her cabin. Elena push through the door and walked into the modest living room. Her nose turned up as she assessed the simple decor. She scoffed silently. “There is absolutely no need for pretence, Alison. I know you must hate me and wish me death---"“My queen----" Alison gasped in dismay. “Shut up and let me speak!” Elena snapped in contained rage. Alison swallowed. A little disappointed that the other woman had not come to make peace. She had been hoping that one day she would come around, and accept her relationship with her son. But it appeared it was nothing but a pipe dream. “I have come to offer you, your last chance at redemption, and if I were you, I will think well before I push further, the mother of a man which you have stolen!”“I'm sorry that you feel this way ---"
Belle then woke up in a dark forest surrounded by large pine trees, the forest was as silent as a graveyard. "Where the fuck am i?" Belle whispered under her breath as she studied her surroundings, as she walked through the dark forest last thing she remembered was going to Stephen's room to see if what the figure that visited her dream said was true.Was she truly the only one that could break Stephen’s curse as she was lost in thought a bright light appeared and she was immediately transported to a cottage in the middle of nowhere, she could hear voices coming from the next room so she decided to investigate.When she got to the next room, she saw a younger version of Stephen standing in front of a woman she didn't know he was smiling with no care in the world, thus was the first time she had ever seen him smiling like this."Come on Alison, I would love it if you would meet my mother, you are very important to me and I would like to introduce you to her" Stephen said as a worried
