ARTHURIt seemed to Arthur that Mila had slapped him. He never had met a girl who didn't desire him! He was the alpha - well, to be alpha, and he was the next in line for the throne. "But she does desire you," Sebastian spoke in Arthur's head simply. "Maybe a little too much," Sebastian added."But then why is she walking away," Arthur moaned as he saw Mila walk towards Tony."I think she wants you to choose," Sebastian spoke reasonably."How can I choose her over Chloe?" Arthur grumbled. "I mean, yes, I like her, but I have already accepted Chloe as my mate. We are set to tie the knot in coming years.""But Chloe is NOT your mate," Sebastian shouted in Arthur's head, making him wince.Mila turned suddenly as if she knew about Arthur's dilemma and pain, but after giving an appraising look, she looked away."I want her," Sebastian moaned."Yeah?" Arthur gave a snort of a laugh, "Join the club!""Choose her," Sebastian beseeched. "She is not even a wolf, what would you do? Fuck a hum
MILA Mila felt a tingle of laugh as she saw Arthur's confused expressions. "What do you mean by their protection?" Arthur asked with comical expressions. "Oh, you are safe, if you that's what you are wondering..." Mila laughed loudly now. "Him," Mila turned and pointed at Tony, Arthur too looked at him, "not so much..." "What do you mean?" Arthur asked very seriously. "Can I tell you a secret?" Mila hesitated. "Always," Arthur spoke quickly. His immediate reply boosted her confidence but she still hesitated. As she bit her lips, pondering over how much she could trust him, he grabbed her hand and spoke earnestly, "I would never betray your trust. I cannot express in words, but believe me, you, you mean a lot to me..." Mila sighed as she stared at his fingers on her wrist. "There are very few people who can touch me, you know," Mila smiled, wrapping her own fingers on his hand. He looked down at their hands and smiled. As their horses bumped and expressed their irritation by jum
They galloped at top speed and Mila halted only when they were on the outskirts of it.To the outside world, i.e. normal people could only see dense fog. The aura around the place was so solemn and dark that no one dared enter it. But Mila could see through – all thanks to Grace, and so could Arthur and Tony.“What is this place?” Arthur wondered, stopping beside Mila and gazing inside. Her glowing eyes could see everything. The dark, the vines, the perilous paths.“I see something move,” Tony remarked and Mila noticed that his eyes were glowing too.Mila followed Tony’s gaze and saw what he was seeing. Up ahead the path, around ten feet inside, a red flower was blooming and shrinking every few seconds.“What is doing this?” Arthur wondered.“Magic,” Mila whispered as she climbed from her horse. Arthur and Tony followed suit.“You both should wait here,” Mila spoke, and while Tony nodded due to the enchantment, Arthur’s face turned furious.“I am not letting you go inside alone,” Arth
MILAMila moved out of the fog with the precious flower in her hands. Arthur was lying still on the ground and Tony was crouching beside him."He is still unconscious," Tony muttered as Mila knealed beside Arthur."Not unconscious," Mila sighed as she placed her palm on Arthur's cheek, "just asleep."And as if he was waiting for her touch, Arthur stirred."What?" Arthur woke with a start. "What happened?""You lost consciousness," Mila smiled."What happened to you?" Arthur asked, abashed. The horror in his wide eyes said more than enough. Mila touched her face and felt her fingers get moist. She had blood all over her body."You are hurt," Arthur snapped as he sat up straight. "You need a medic, where does it hurt?""Nowhere," Mila smiled.But Arthur was not willing to listen. He was already on his way to his horse. Mila grabbed his hand and stopped him."Listen to me," Mila insisted but Arthur was babbling something. "Please listen to me, my love. Do you have a moment to hear me out
ARTHURThere were only a few things that Arthur enjoyed thoroughly in his life - fighting, unleashing Bash and running around with his pack, spending time with his mother and now this... This, the way this incredibly tiny human was wrapped around him, this, the feel of her body, the scent of her hair, the soft but firm grip of her hand on his arm, this was something that now precedented everything else in his life.Mila's eyes were closed and she had her head on his chest. Oh, how much he wanted to jump from this horse, tear away the armour and clothes that were a barrier between them, and make her his own. But it has to wait... "Maybe longer than you think!" Bash's sarcastic voice rang in Arthur's head."Oh, shut up," Arthur growled.Mila's head jerked up and she blinked at him. "But I am not speaking," she looked offended."Oh, not you," Arthur couldn't help but smile affectionately at her."What then? Are you talking to Tony?" Mila narrowed her eyes."I thought you were raised bet
MILA"Stop," Mila ordered as she saw the boundary of Arthur's city loom ahead in the darkness."What happened?" Arthur asked, suddenly pulling the reins of the horse, bringing it to a halt."I think this is close enough," and sliding down from his horse, Mila gained distance from him. As she was about to move away, feeling sad from the distance, she felt a tug at her hand. Arthur had grabbed her fingers.She looked back and saw the same look of sadness reflect in Arthur's eyes. They had spent the entire day in each other's company, cherished some incredible moments, but now it was time to get back to reality. And the reality was too bitter to bear. Arthur was someone else's mate and Mila was nothing but a mere human girl who was his servant of sorts."I don't want to part ways just yet," Arthur spoke heavily."My lord, it is time..." Mila's voice was a mere whisper. The dark had fallen and she could see sentry up ahead.As she took back her hand and walked away, Arthur jumped from his
ARTHURRaul Collins, aka the Alpha, aka Arthur's father had the most bemused expressions on his face. And Arthur didn't like this look... no he didn't like it at all. Arthur knew something was cooking up in his father's head and it would not bode well for anyone."Why are you happy, father?" Arthur asked seriously."Why are you so frantic, son?" the Alpha asked back, though in a mocking tone."You answer me first," Arthur asked with narrowed eyes.The Alpha huffed and sat straight up. They were in the the hearing chambers and he looked around to check their audience. It was quite early in the day and only Arthur was there. "Why did you call he so early here, father?" Arthur stressed.The Alpha sighed but it was not some thoughtful sigh, instead one that said the Alpha had something vicious on his mind. Arthur loved and respected his father a lot, he had even fought and won wars on his say so... but Arthur also knew his father was overly ambitious and with growing time he had turned m
ARTHUR"Let her be," Bash screamed in Arthur's head as he rushed after Chloe. "It is kind of good, let her believe it. And then we will be free of her!""Shut it," Arthur growled back. "Are you forgetting how powerful Chloe's family is? Chloe can have Mila murdered in her sleep.""And are you forgetting how powerful Mila is? She is a weapon!" Bash continued."It would be better for everyone if that remained a secret," Arthur muttered as he quietly followed Chloe to her chambers.Chloe was about to snap the door shut in his face when he reached her."Listen to me," Arthur started but Chloe just growled at him. "Let's get inside first," he insisted and Chloe moved aside.The moment he closed the doors, Chloe flung her hand and slapped Arthur squarely in the face. He was so takenaback by this action that he just stood rooted to the ground for a moment. He only moved when Chloe fell on the floor sobbing harshly."Never," Chloe spoke between her sobs, "Never had I thought you would betray
FIFTEEN YEARS LATER “Oh, no… not again,” someone thumped the door. “Mom… dad… you are causing thunder again. What are you even doing?” Mila, who was pinned under Arthur, and was crying loudly as Arthur pounded himself hard inside her, bringing her to the precipice of bliss, did not respond. “Control yourself,” Arthur scolded Mila as he continued to move inside her. “I am about to come,” Mila cried. “Come for me, love,” Arthur too closed his eyes and moved violently, and Mila knew he too was about to find his release. “Mom… dad…” the pounding continued. “Don’t stop!” Mila cried, as her body quivered and Arthur felt her spasm as her orgasm hit her with full force. Arthur moved a few more times and fell on top of her. He knew Mila had climaxed, just went he did too. “When would you learn to not lose it,” Arthur scolded her as he wrapped a towel around his waist and walked up to the door. He removed the cushioning charm from the door and walls – which made the room sound proof – a
ARTHUR & MILAOnce Mila and Arthur were sure about the terms of the alliance, they called for the alphas - Canon Lapiz, David Keplins and Motif Rivera. David and Motif signed without even reading, well, they were under the control of Mila fully. But Canon read through the document and discussed every point in detail. Canon was not worried about his son, he knew that if Canon would survive these terms, his son, Martin Lapiz – fated mate of Chloe – would also survive the terms.“By the way,” Canon grinned as he signed, “this is very one sided. No where it is mentioned what kind of protection you would offer?”“I think she saved your kingdom from Shana, that is enough,” Arthur spoke gruffly.“She is yet to save us fully. Shana’s men are horrible, why else was able to control everything!” Canon pointed.Mila nodded and willed Shana to call for all her men from across the kingdom while Mila visited the dungeons where Canon wants the men to be held.“You have a roomy dungeon,” Mila sighed a
ARTHUR & MILA“Help me, and I swear my fealty to you, Mila – Daniels – Sharpe – Collins. Lapiz kingdom is yours,” Canon Lapiz’s voice boomed in the halls.“Eh!” Arthur spoke as he looked around, “Looks like you have some renovating to do,” he laughed.“With pleasure, Arthur,” and Canon extended a hand.Arthur did not take it though. He looked down at Mila and asked, “Are you okay?”Mila rubbed her neck and twisted it to gain some movement. “Wow! That collar is horrible. It was like I can register everything, think what to do, but then puff, the thoughts would erase from my mind.”“Whoever created this –” Arthur started.“Must be very stupid,” Mila nodded as she looked for the collar, but Rah was holding it.“I will keep it safe until you decide what to do with it,” Rah assured.Arthur and Mila nodded in unison.“Chloe, go back to your room and take your mate with you,” Arthur ordered. “David, you should go with her and discuss what you both want to do. We will support you in whatever
ARTHUR“And where are all the girls of your kingdom,” Mila demanded finally.Shana looked at Mila and without even blinking, without even taking her eyes off Mila, Shana jerked her head. Before anyone could react or even comprehend what had happened, a few men appeared at all sides, Arthur, Motif, David tried to fight them but they were suddenly overpowered, and a collar had been placed on Mila’s throat and her mouth was gagged and her arms were bound.“Enchantress,” Shana laughed as Mila’s eyes glazed over and her knees buckled. As Mila fell to the floor, Shana whooped with joy and literally jumped on her heels, clapping merrily. “A were enchantress,” she added as she walked up to Mila.Arthur tried to fight off the men but couldn’t. He felt ashamed. He was ambushed and he could not fight. His whole attention was at Mila and the anger that was rolling off her had him fully distracted.Now he was forced to submit because not one, but four men had spears pointed at Mila, and though he
ARTHUR & MILA “How would we know if it is time to go back,” Arthur asked as he twirled Mila’s red hair in between his fingers. “We cannot know here,” she laughed as she lay back in bed and stared up the sky. The peace and quiet of the moor was impeccable. “Oh, I could live here forever,” she groaned as she got up to get dressed. “Me too, I know you have your responsibility but I am sick and tired of worrying about others. I sometimes feel that I just want to worry about myself and my loved ones, that’s it. No people, no clan, no kingdom, just you, me and my father…” Arthur spoke as he didn’t even bother moving. “Where is it coming from?” Mila asked surprised. “You love your people,” she added. “You literally disowned me for your people.” “And I cannot apologize enough for that lapse of judgment,” Arthur spoke earnestly and Mila knew he meant it. “What changed,” Mila shook her head. “Why do you want to shirk your responsibilities now?” “Maybe it is because of my recent death expe
ARTHUR & MILA Arthur’s smile was the only thing that Mila needed to breathe properly. “Oh, Arthur,” Mila cried as she fell to his side and kissed him on his lips. “I love you,” Arthur spoke to Mila, “I love you so damn much!” Mila blinked as she pulled back. “Are you talking to me in my head?” Mila thought as she stared at Arthur. “I guess I am,” Arthur grinned broadly. “So, our minds are linked again!” Mila felt embarrassed as a very naughty image flashed in front of her eyes. “Yes, because I just saw that,” Arthur grinned as he sat back. Rah rushed to assist Arthur, but Arthur did not need any help. “How do you feel?” Rah asked Arthur seriously. Arthur stood up and spoke, “Different but quite good.” And he smiled. Mila’s heart swelled with happiness as she saw Arthur well and happy. Arthur stared at her with same affection. “Umm, why do I sense I am missing out on something,” Rah spoke tentatively as he stared at the pair. “Nothing,” Arthur grinned. “Tell me everythi
MILA Arthur’s eyes flicked open but they were blank. “Arthur,” Mila cried in shocked surprise and withdrew her hands from both Arthur’s body and the wisdom tree. At once, Arthur’s body – which was levitating in the air – fell back to the ground with a thud and his eyes closed again. “What just happened?” Raul Collins demanded as he rushed close to his head and touched Arthur’s face. “He is not awake, Mila, he is not awake.” “But why is still glowing?” Rah asked in alarm. Because Arthur’s entire body was still glowing a bright burning torch. “I don’t know,” Mila spoke, feeling scared now. “Osho, what is happening?” she looked at Osho in alarm. Osho too was looking shocked. It was as if something new for him too. And these expressions scared Mila more than anything else. “What is happening, Osho?” Mila demanded. “I don’t know, my queen,” Osho muttered. “But you are all knowing, you have seen the past, the present and the future,” Mila spoke in shock, “How do you not know!” Os
MILA “Can I go and visit Arthur?” Rah asked Mila tentatively. She was literally dragging her feet as he walked back to the kingdom. Mila nodded. “Where is he?” Rah asked expectantly. And without any explanation or answer, Mila slashed the air with her hand and they saw Arthur lying unconscious on his bed. “Son,” Raul Collins cried as he crossed the portal and hurried to his bed. Rah and Ajax followed. Mila started at Arthur’s limp form for a moment, then followed. As the portal closed behind her, she stared around. “Arthur, wake up son,” Raul Collins shook Arthur but it made no change in his condition. “He does not look hurt,” Ajax spoke softly. “Not superficially,” Mila spoke, stony faced. “I healed his wounds and cuts that Motif made, but I am unable to wake him up.” “Why is it?” Rah asked. “You can cure almost anything, why is it you cannot heal him?” “I don’t know,” Mila sniffed. It seemed like her entire being was dying with Arthur. “You must be devastated on the insid
MILA “Mila,” Rah spoke warningly. “War is not the answer to the problems!” “They all accompanied him here, didn’t they?” Mila roared. “They all jeer when he kills.” “Look at them, Mila, look at them,” Rah spoke imploringly. “Why don’t you check with them, if they really are loyal to Motif. You are supposed to unite all nine kingdoms, you are supposed to be their queen. Your first act cannot be annihilating them all.” “Mila,” Raul Collins spoke with a sad sigh. “Rah is right.” Mila glared up at Motif and though he was unconscious, he twitched mid air. “Incendi,” Mila whispered. “NOOOOO!” Rah screamed as he saw Motif’s flesh catch fire. Suddenly Motif was awake and was writhing and wailing in pain. Everyone retreated as flecks of fire rained down on them. Even Mila’s shirt caught fire but she did not wince. She was feeling the savage pleasure hearing Motif’s screams. “Mila, no!” Raul Collins spoke softly. “You are not a killer, Mila. Don’t go there. Arthur does not want you to
