Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 17- Unleash the Beast
Lachesis’ POV “Where is your head sister?” Clotho asks, her worried gaze focused on me. “We do not have time to dally. We must find a way to return Jamari from the Fae Realm quickly before it is too late.” A tendril of fear emanates from Clotho at those words. Whether it be from fear of Levi, the King of the Demons, or out of fear of something terrible happening to Jamari while in the Fae Realm. Not that that is likely to happen if the future goes the way that I have seen. If everything goes as planned Jamari should find her way back to us within a week. But I can’t tell my sisters that, they would be furious if they found out what I did. “What have you done Lachesis?” Atropos asks me quietly, her narrowed gaze focused on my face. Uncomfortable under her intense gaze, I squirm in my seat, avoiding looking her in her eyes. Clotho stiffens in her seat beside me, her gaze now focused on my face as well. “What is it Atropos?” She asks, not giving me the chance to defend myself.
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 18- Where Are We?
Jamari’s POVLachesis’ words keep running through my head like a broken record. ‘Morgana, dear. Could you come over here for a moment?’ Is something wrong with my baby? My hands instinctiely move to protect the tiny bundle quickly growing within my womb. Nothing can happen to my sweet baby. Morgana’s warm hand stays covering my stomach as a frown begins to form on her face. That can’t be good. Why is she frowning like that?Power swells all around us, moving in squiggly lines from each of the Fates and headed in our direction, meanwhile a fourth tendril of power makes its way towards us from the window. My gaze follows the tendril of power until my eyes are met with the sight of a Raven sitting outside on the window sill. What the heck is going on?My final thought before I am plunged into darkness, drowning in the intensity of it. Anxiety begins to build up within me, choking me with fear. The feel of Morgana’s hand still resting on my abdomen is the only thing that keeps me from g
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 19- Showdown Between Mates
Lucern’s POVWhere the hell did Levi and Kenji run off to? We need to be finding a way to get Jamari out of the Fae Realm before one of the creatures there tears her apart. My steps falter as I get nearer to the entrance to my Castle. Two bloody men come sauntering up the courtyard scaring the servants in and out of the Castle. Dozens of terrified vampires quickly run in the opposite directions of the two men coming closer to where I stand in shock.Is that Kenji and Levi? What in the bloody hell happened to those two? Were they attacked while walking around the Castle or the surrounding forest? My eyes roam over the distance in search of what threat Jamari’s mates might have come across. “Move.” Levi orders when he reaches where I stand just inside the open doorway. My brow raises in question at his brusque tone. “What has got into you?” I ask, not moving from my spot. My arms wrap around my chest as I study both Kenji and Levi in turn. “I said, MOVE.” Levi repeats, his voice rai
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 20- The Power of an Angel
Jamari’s POVSix more creatures of a smaller size exits the trees on either side of the big one and stops beside it.The sound of their shrieks threatens to buckle my knees beneath me as fear washes over me from the sight. How will I get us out of this alive?‘I am here with you Jamari.’ Rieka’s soft voice floats through my mind, sending a calming aura over me. Power floods my system as I pull on Remiel’s power stored within my body, instinct telling me that his power would be the most effective in this situation. Lightning crackles in the air around us, causing the creatures to still as they glance at me wearily. A golden light emanates from my skin, lighting up the clearing around me enough for Morgana to get a look at the creatures standing around us. A gasp of fear and disgust floats up to me from Morgana’s hiding place behind me. ‘The larger creature must be their Queen.’ Rieka tells me as we study our opponents for weaknesses. Their skinless bodies glisten in the light comin
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 21- You Selfish Witch
Jamari’s POV We need to find a way to get out of the Fae Realm quickly before this High Queen Mab of the Unseelie Court learns of our presence within her Realm. If there are more creatures out there like the giants I just saved then there could be dangers at every corner. I must do what I need to do to ensure that I make it back to my Kings quickly. “You should not have risked your life and that of your child’s like that.” Morgana’s disapproving voice pulls me out of my thoughts and back to the anger that I felt earlier at her interruption. I turn on Morgana who stands just outside of the tree trunk, her arms crossed over her breasts in irritation. SHE is irritated with ME! My anger fumes inside of me, begging to be released on the woman that has made my life more difficult these past two months. “YOU should not have interfered in something I was handling.” I tell her coldly. “I had everything under control until you called out for me and put them in a frenzy.” My eyes glance d
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 22- Magical Reserve Running Low
Morgana’s POVIf I do not find a way to replenish my magic stores soon I will be nothing but a step above a human. Defenseless and useless in battle if we come across more creatures here in the dark forest. Things have been quiet during the last two hours of our walking aimlessly through the forest, but that could change at any moment. I can not sit back and rely on Jamari to protect me from the dangers of the forest. She is heavily pregnant afterall. My eyes search for her in the darkness, the silhouette of her standing beside me the only thing I can make out of my surroundings. With my inability to see in the darkness surrounding us, I have been forced to latch onto Jamari like a small child holding on to their mother. It has been a long time since I have felt so helpless and I have decided that I do not like it one bit. But how can I restore my magic here in the forest?I should have used one of the giants that Jamari saved to fill up my magic before they scurried off into the da
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 23- A Kiss to Remember
Morgana’s POV“So if we kissed it would help restore your magic?” Jamari asks, her voice sounding husky to my ears.I spin around in shock, my eyes searching Jamari’s for any hint of jesting. Not finding any, I nod my head in answer. My body moves on its own, drawn in by the aura surrounding Jamari, tempting me to take what I want from her. Jamari hestites when I draw closer to her, causing a smile to lift the corners of my lips. Boldness rushes through me as I reach out to run my hand down her cheek. Tingles move from my fingertips, up my arm, and straight down to my pulsing core. Arousal rushes through me from the simple touch of my hand, causing heat to pool between my thighs. Such a strange reaction for my body, even if it is desperate to get the magic that it so desperately desires. A gasp leaves Jamari’s lips, causing them to part as her tongue darts out to moisten her lips. Moving in slowly so as not to startle her, I gently place my lips on hers in what was supposed to be a
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 24- Secrets
Jamari’s POVMy eyes still glued to Morgana as she runs her hands over her body, I make my way to a boulder sitting beside the hot springs that allows me to still have a full view of her. I set my clothes down on the boulder before pulling my t-shirt over my head and pulling it down over my bulging stomach. My still drenched leggings are the next to get pulled on. My tongue clucks in annoyance as I pull the wet garments up over my skin. A shiver moves through my body from the cold of the night biting at my wet clothing. Letting out a resigned sigh, I carefully seat myself on the boulder before turning to look back at Morgana in the springs. Her eyes lock with mine, a smouldering heat evident in her silver eyes. A new shiver moves through my body, but this one not from the cold, as her eyes roam over my body. Heat envelopes me, drying the clothing sticking to my body, leaving me in blissful warmth. A sigh of relief leaves me. Morgana nods her head in satisfaction before turning to c

Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Book 3 Coming Soon
I have decided to end book 2 where it is. Thank you all for your continued support and positive reviews. I will be starting Book 3, the final book in the series, soon and will have it up by next month. I am currently dealing with a family emergency that might make my planned timeline a little longer than I would like so please bear with me as I plan out how to end Jamari's journey. The next book will introduce the last of Jamari's mates and will bring everything that has happened in the last two books to a head as well. I am so grateful to everyone that has stuck by me throughout this journey and I am anxious to see what is in store for Jamari and her mates. All my love, Heidi Monath
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 138- Loyalty
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 137- Careful Who You Trust pt. 3
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
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 136- Careful Who You Trust pt. 2
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
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 135- Careful Who You Trust pt. 1
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
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 132- Give Them What They Want
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
Alpha Queen's Reluctant Mate Chapter 131- Short Leash
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
