last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Jamari’s POV

‘Did this fake bitch just say what I think she said?’ My body moves before I can register what is happening. The feeling of my body flying through the air as I launch myself towards where Sabina lays on the floor staring up at Lucern with lovesick eyes. ‘I will rip her still beating heart from her chest.’

Something grabs hold of my waist before wrapping their strong arms around the slender area and pulls me close to a hard body. Howard’s scent invades my senses as my enraged mind refocuses on what is happening in front of me. A hand moves up to clamp over my lips in a warning to be quiet.

When Howard drops me back to the hardwood floors, I swirl around on him in anger and glare at him. He gives me a sheepish look before turning his attention back to Sabina and Lucern. Letting out a huff of anger, I turn myself back to the bitch as well, plotting out her slow demise in my head as I watch.

Lucern stares at her quietly, disbelief clear on his handsome cocoa features. His bo

  • Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 1- Temptations Kiss

    Lucern’s POV “You are so beautiful, my Sweet.” My eyes watch in aww as goosebumps appear across Jamari’s skin everywhere my fingers touch. I slowly run my fingers featherlight down her neck, over her collarbone, and lower to where her two perfect handfuls rest, exposed to my gaze. She looks up at me with half hooded eyes, lightning crackling within their deep blue depths. My breath catches in my throat as I admire the naked perfection spread out beneath me. Fiery red hair spreads out around the most beautiful face I have seen in any of my many years alive. Jamari’s almond shaped eyes close as a moan moves past her kissable lips when my fingers trail down to one taunt nipple, continuing with their gentle explorations. My head dips down to take one pert nipple into my mouth, my tongue swirling lazily around the tasty treat offered before me. A sultry moan fills the space around us, urging me to continue with my introduction to the prize that could be mine, if only I would claim it

    Jamari’s POV A gasp leaves my lips as I sit straight up in bed, panting in an attempt to catch my breath. Levi and Kenji both jump up from both sides of me, their eyes searching the darkness for a threat. They both relax back on the bed beside me when neither man finds anything amiss within our room. Levi’s arms wrap around me from my right, his hand absently begins to rub my growing belly as Kenji settles back in the bed to my left, his hand soon joining Levi’s. We lay in contented silence for a few before Kenji dares to break the quiet. “Was it another dream?” He asks, lifting himself up on his elbow so he’s able to look down at me. A regretful sigh moves past my lips as I close my eyes and lean my head against the headboard behind me. “I’ll take that as a yes.” Kenji says, moving his hand up to stroke my cheek lovingly. “Do you want to talk about it?” Levi asks, also lifting himself up to his elbow to stare down at me, causing me to feel as if I was a deer stuck in someone’s he

    High Queen Titania’s POV (The Fairy Queen- The Seelie Court)“Your Highness.” Alette’s frantic voice floats into my bedchamber as she makes her way closer to my rooms. A glance at the clock hanging on the wall causes a frown to form on my brows. What is Alette doing running through the castle halls when everyone should be asleep?“Your Highness.” Her high pitched voice sounds once more, drawing closer to my rooms. A heavy sigh leaves my lips as I move towards the door leading out to the hall to stop my lady in waiting before she wakes up the whole Royal Court. The last thing I want to do this late in the day is deal with their whining over being woken up. Before my hand can close over the door handle, the door comes flying towards me, narrowly missing smacking me in the face. “Your High-” Alette’s words die in her throat when her startled gaze meets mine behind the door. Alette freezes in place, her tiny wings buzzing furiously in the air to keep her afloat as she waits for my tempe

    Lucern’s POVMy body stiffens as I jerk to look at the woman laying beside me. “Morgana?” I ask, still not believing what my eyes are so clearly telling me. “Who else would I be, my love?” She asks, raising one eyebrow in question as she looks up at me from her place on the bed beside me.A frown forms on my brows as I try to wrap my head around what the devil was happening. I was sure it was Jamari that was in bed with me. Though, now that I think about it with a clear head, it is probably a good thing that it wasn’t Jamari that was in bed with me. I do believe that having her even once would be enough to tie me to her forever. “What is on your mind Lucern?” Morgana asks me, concern crossing her features as she sits up in bed to get a better look at me. Her silk nightgown falls back over her exposed breasts and stomach at the movement, catching my eye momentarily. Morgana was a beautiful woman and once upon a time would have been enough to hold my interest for the rest of our long

    Jamari’s POV ‘Do you think I ruined our chances of having him for a mate when I…’ Rieka cut off her thought with an exasperated sigh. ‘I was just so tired of waiting around on him.’ She tells me softly. ‘I know Rieka.’, was all I was able to say as my mind drifted back to the incident Rieka spoke of from a month ago. *Flashback to 1 Month Ago* “He is never going to agree to be my mate.” I cry out as I plop myself on the luxurious bed I’ve been staying in for the last month here in the Vampire Realm. “Everytime he sees me he runs in the other direction.” A pout forms on my lips as I lift myself up in bed and cross my arms under my aching breasts. Being pregnant is no fun like those lying mothers like to tell me. My feet and back aches, my boobs feel like someone is constantly grabbing them, and I pee like a hundred times a day. What could possibly be magical about this? The pout on my face deepens as my thoughts drift away from Lucern and onto my pregnancy. My hand unconscious

    High Queen Mab’s POV“You wished to see me your Majesty.” Ice, the Elf leader of my Dark Hunt soldiers says, placing one hand over his heart as he bows to me. My eyes drift over his attractive frame, not for the first time wondering if he might make a suitable donor for future strong children.Letting out a reluctant sigh, I let that thought die like the countless times before and straighten in my seat at the table situated in my room. Ice would father fine warriors indeed, but then the loss of his skills would be a waste when I inevitably had to kill him once our children were born. Ice’s movement as he rises from his bow draws my attention back to him and the reason I have called him here. With one final perusal of his fine body, I remove thoughts of bedding him from my mind. “We have a need for strong soldiers in the near future.” I tell him. Ice’s eyes meet mine knowingly as he waits for me to give the command. “Gather your brothers.” I tell him, rising from my seat by the windo

    Lucern’s POV“Have you ever heard of the Wild Hunt Lucern?” Count Adrian asks, drawing my attention out of my thoughts about running into Jamari in the hallway while leaving my room and back to the meeting I called in order to avoid her. Not that calling Count Adrian from his bed to meet has helped with my wandering thoughts. Jamari is still the top thing on my mind and it is taking every fiber of my control not to storm out of this room to find her.“For Gods sake Lucern. Why would you pull me out of my bed with-” His words die as he searches his brain for the name of his latest conquest. A frown mars his face when he is unable to remember the name of the woman waiting for him in his bed. After shaking his head, he continues. “Why would you call me here if you’re just going to ignore me?” He asks, sitting back in his seat with his arms crossed over his chest. Not many people would have the nerve to speak to me in this manner, but Adrian is like a brother to me and doesn’t fear me a

    Lucern’s POV“No one is here.” A disappointed look appears on Sabina’s face as we make our way into Howard’s hidden office that only a select few people are able to access. As we look around the large room, we find no one in sight, but I can sense my mate’s scent somewhere in this room, so I know she is here. Before I can call for Jamari to let her know that I can sense her in the room, Sabina suddenly throws herself at me. Her body drapes over mine, sending confusion through my body as she grabs hold of me tightly. The scent of blood fills the room, causing my nostrils to flare as I seek out the scent. Shoving Sabina to the side, I look around the room in search of where the scent of blood could be coming from. Sabina whimpers from behind me, drawing my attention to her direction. Blood flows from her stomach, coating her hands as she presses down on the wound that has blood flowing out of it like a river. My senses go on overdrive as I search the room for the unknown threat that

    Jamari’s POV“I have brought you here to offer you a warning.” My body stiffens at Howard’s words as a feeling of dread settles in the pit of my stomach. Howard motions for me to take a seat on one of the couches in the sitting area, a serious look taking over his features as he follows me over and takes a seat on a couch that faces the one that I sat on. “I am not the only one on the council that feels that Lucern has made a mistake by taking you as his Queen.” Howard says, an apologetic look pulling at his features. “That was of course before I realized that you would be an asset to the Vampire Realm.” He says, earning a snort from me in response. “I know that does not mean much now, but I do hope you will give me the chance to earn your trust.” A gentle smile appears on Howard’s face as he looks over at me. Even after everything that has been said and done by him recently, I can feel deep in my bones that Howard is telling the truth and that he means me no harm. And if that wasn

    Jamari’s POV“Some might call you foolish for letting Howard off so easily, my lady.” Nodding my head in agreement, I walk out of the door without looking around at the disapproving faces of the rest of Lucern’s council members. I had originally come in search of Lucern to see what had gotten him so upset all of a sudden, I was not expecting to walk into a council meeting that was about me. “She is right, my lady.” The sound of Howard’s unexpected voice pulls me out of my thoughts, startling me slightly as I jump in place, my hand moving up to grasp the base of my throat in order to calm my nerves. An apologetic look appears on Howard’s face as he moves off of the wall that he was reclining on. “I did not mean to startle you, my lady.” Howard stops his forward movement a few feet away from me, nervously moving from foot to foot as an internal struggle appears on his face. “What is it?” I ask him curiously. Something is clearly bothering the old Vampire and with the way things ended

  • Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 134- Not So Foolish Queen

    Lucern’s POVSilence moves around the room as everyone thinks over Jamari’s question. Removal from the council has never happened before, not in a situation like this at least. There have been times in history where members were not rechosen for the role of council member, but no one has ever been removed mid-term like Jamari is suggesting. Council members, as well as other subjects, have been sentenced to death for less than what Howard has been accused of. Most rulers do not take too kindly to their subjects speaking ill of themselves or their mates. “You do not wish for Howard’s head, my lady?” Sabina asks, an intrigued look on her face. She leans forward in her seat and places her chin on the back of her joined hands. Her brow lifts in interest as she stares over at Jamari and waits for her response.I lean back in my seat and watch as Jamari squirms in her seat, uncomfortable as ever with being the center of attention. Her gaze moves over my council members until her eyes land

  • Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 133- Did Someone Say Treason?

    Lucern’s POV “Don’t do something you might regret for me, my King.” Jamari’s whispered words echo around in my head as I struggle to regain control over the bloodlust that had slowly taken control over my actions. It is not often that I allow myself to get so enraged that the bloodlust takes over, it was something that I learned to control at an early age. Adrian steps up to stand beside Jamari, amusement glinting in those eyes of his as he looks between the two of us. Whispers begin to fill the quiet space all around us, Jamari’s presence soothing the fear that had my council members as still as a statue only moments before. Jamari lifts up her right hand and places it on the arm that belongs to the hand that is still currently squeezing the life out of Howard. Disgust takes over my face as I retract my claws from his neck but do not release my hold from around his neck. Within seconds the deep gashes around his neck has healed enough to stop the flow of blood from continuing to

    Lucern’s POV“Sire, when are we going to unlock the Vampire Realm? Many of our subjects are complaining about the lack of freedom, and the subjects that are trapped on the outside of the Vampire Realm are starting to get antsy.” The circle of my council of advisors nod their head in agreement at Rudolph’s claim. Count Adrian leans back in his seat, his eyes surveying the older men that sit around us in the conference room that is usually used for conducting business. “Would the people rather we come under attack?” Adrian asks, his brow lifting in challenge. The council at least has the decency to look embarrassed that they had forgotten about the threat. “Has the threat not been subdued?” One of the men speaks up, a glint of mischief blatantly clear in his eyes. Howard is the one council member that I would love to get rid of. He never misses an opportunity to cause issues for me within the Realm and I still have not figured out what his problem is with me. I am the rightful heir t

    Jamari’s POV“Are you sure that this is a good idea?” Kenji asks the same question that has been asked a hundred times since I told my mates that we need to get into the Fae Realm. “What if us unlocking the Fae Realm is what sets the events that you saw into motion? We can’t be hasty with our decision making.” Kenji’s words make me pause my speed reading of the spell books that Lucern has available in his massive library. A frown scrunches up the corners of my eyes as my brows draw together in thought. My eyes move up to find Kenji’s worried gaze. “I have to be there for him Kenji.” Sorrow fills my words as I am once again reminded of the scene that I watched play out before my eyes. Lifting my head for the first time in an hour, I look around in search of my Demon King whom I have given strict orders not to leave my side until we know for sure that the vision of him dying in that clearly does not come to pass. “Where is Levi?” I ask, sniffing the air to see if I can catch his scent
