Chapter 23
Days pass and it's a few days of princess Arcadia's coronation, from now one she would formally be called Queen Arcadia after the special day, and as usual there would always be schemers who want to take the kingdom from her.
"Pull your form up boy!" Xerxes throws a stone at the young lad and it hits him in the torso, he winces but he still holds up his position, balancing rocks on his arm and being made to stand on a foot,"You don't have to throw stones at me!" He bites back, his black hair was already sticking to his forehead due to the sweat,"I would throw more than stones so straighten up!!" He barks and the boy is made to readjust himself according to what his master wants from him, "now that's better. If you want to be the Queen's best man then you must be prepared for anything and everything, nothing must happen to her while you're still alive." He feels the daggers in his heart, how he wished he would've saved Octavia that dayChapter 24His land was burning, there was fire everywhere, he did everything to put it out but the fire couldn't be quenched, all his men had been slain and he had no idea where his Betas were, they just left him to die.He has no strength left to fight so he begins to hide and cower away, that was until he was found by his worst enemy,"Are you running away from me now?!" She makes fun of him as she pulled him out of his hiding place, she settles herself comfortably in his upper torso, she instilled fear in his heart as her fangs were dripping blood, "don't you want me as a mate anymore?" She cocks her head playfully before laughing like the bloodthirsty demon she was."Stay away from me!!" He more of begs than commands, he was scared of her,"Awwwn, is the big bad alpha afraid of me? I'm just a woman after all." She inches closer to him so he could suffer the stench of stale blood, he pushes her off him and runs as fast as he could only fo
Chapter 25After hearing what Sativa had to say about the soon-to-be Queen of the north, Mace was more than determined to make sure he proves her wrong. He entered his palace at Dawn and he sights Czar first only because he was coming to him,"It seems you're up early master, earlier than usual, you should be resting and not training," Czar shows his concern but the look on Mace's face caused him to change the course of direction of his statement, "did something happen?""What can you tell me about Arcadia? Have you been watching her like I asked you too?" He walks ahead and Czar trails him,"Yes I have been watching her carefully, her coronation is in two days, my spies have said she has a lot of enemies, no one wants her to become the Queen since she's an illegitimate child." His report is said with half a smirk, "are you planning an attack on her again? Are you sure you're ready Master?""If I wait then she would begin to win the fav
Chapter 26"Master, info has it that the coronation would be at an all time high once the sun sets, I think that would be the best time to attack." They discuss as they walked round the garden, the workers making sure it was neat and beautiful,"And?" Mace was expecting him to say more which he complied,"The princess is going to be crowned by her father, at the centre of the throne room and then led to officially sit on the throne with everyone present. They would be surrounded by a large number of people so it would be easy to kill her through our spies." Now Mace was liking Czar even more,"I don't want her dead, I want her brought to me then I would end her myself." He eyed his blade and imagined her blood dripping from it as he severed her head,"That can also be achieved but there is an issue." He takes his time as he stared at a maid, curvy on all sides and her exposed thighs brought him a wave of deep pleasure, "master, what do you th
Chapter 27"Is everything alright with you two?" Asher had to be concerned with the way she requested his presence,"I think it must be important, start with the techniques I taught you yesterday and I will be with you soon. Do. Not. Slack. Or else." He warns before jogging up the stairs to his room, Asher shakes his head,"What he doesn't see can't hurt him." He smiles sinisterly before going to have his 'training'.He opens the door to his room to see Sheila pacing up and down with a worried expression on her face,"Please could you close the door? No one must hear what I'm about to tell you." He nods and does her bidding, locking the door,"I hope all is fine but I know it isn't with that look on your face, is it one of our officials? What have they planned this time around?" He wanted to see how they would get rid of them,"It is more than that, it started when sage Mazi ordered one of the maids to burn down this scroll," she shows him
Chapter 28The sun was already making it's way to the sky and it would be time to commence the day of the coronation, the party would be in full swing but the duo hadn't solved the mystery yet,"Sheila, I think you should be with Arcadia at all times, and tell Asher not to leave her either, I would do this on my own." He rolls the scroll, "take care of my daughter, don't let anything happen to her."She nods and turns to the door, "would you be fine by yourself?" She knew it was a lot to handle but with the determination in his eyes, she knew he would be able to handle it. He nods and she walks out, going to her room to get dressed in the prettiest attire she had.As much as she wanted to lock herself in her room and cry about the love of her life, she had a duty to fulfill; to kill everyone that opposes the Queen."So today is her Coronation," Mace was dressing up as he spoke to Czar, who had been with him most of the time ever since Loki put his st
Chapter 29.He didn't know what to say; yes or no? But he wanted it, his heart was telling him to accept her proposal."Yes...." She is delighted at his answer but he still looked worried, "but I do ask one thing of you; That we do not rush this, I don't want us to make a mistake at the end of the day." His eyes avert from her gaze and though his words hurt her, she has to agree that he was only trying to be careful,"Very well, but you wouldn't limit me too much now would you?" Her hands travel to his lower region and he is highly nervous, "I would still have rights over you." She tugs at the hem of his trousers,"Your majesty!!" He jumps a distance away from her as he did he best to hide his embarrassment, "I said we should slow down!! Wh-wh-what are you doing?!" He coughs to revert back to his deep voice and not the highly pitched one that he used previously.She laughs him to scorn, "I'm still your Queen and if I wish I will do with you as I plea
Chapter 30Arcadia had been dolled up, she was excited that she would be crowned the Queen of the north, how she wished her mother was here to see her.She walks down the stairs with her best man, Asher, and he took pride in the beauty of his Queen. Everyone had gathered and the throne room was full. And so were Mace's men, waiting to attack and slay their target.They walked down the red carpet together and flowers are thrown at them to welcome them, she turns to him and she couldn't hide the smirk on her face,"Why are you smiling?" He bends to whisper to her, and she giggles to herself, "you're such a mystery your majesty." He shakes his head before stopping half way to the throne, "I believe this is where I leave you." He bows and excuses himself.She stands at the middle of the throne room, waiting to be crowned the Queen. The sage walks up to her and puts his hand on her head, she takes a small bow out of respect and smiles at him,"
Chapter 31All heads turn to see who challenged Beta Azeah, everyone froze as they saw Xerxes wearing his father's robe, a black fur robe that had been designed with diamonds and gold silk, he saddled his father's sword; the death bringer by his side as he held the scrolls and pieces of paper in his hands.He took his time to climb down the extravagant stairway and walk towards them,"She is your child, she doesn't deserve to sit on the throne!" Azeah spits at him while Xerxes rolled his eyes,"Have you forgotten that I am royalty??" The sudden revelation shocked everyone except for those who knew, her eyes began to shut and Asher rushes to hold her before she collapsed on the ground,"Be careful my Queen, I know you're shocked but pull together." He encourages her but her heart was already breaking,"What else did they hide from me?" She was pained to her bone, so many secrets,"I am the first and only child of king Fang and king Magnus wa
Chapter 84. He pulls out of her and puts her on her knees, pulling her closer to him, she looks back to see what he was doing, eager to have him in her again. He injects himself into her and she moans loudly at his entrance, her moans get louder when he starts thrusting deep into her, hitting her pleasure spot."Ahhh!! Mace ahhhh!!" She gripped the sheets as he held her hips in place, slamming into her poor cookie and ripping it apart with his vein-y muscle, hard and rough was how he was giving it to her. It was what he always wanted, and her moaning only made his dreams come true, "oh please Mace!! Oh Mace!! Mace!!" Already screaming he pulls her up by her hair so he could kiss her and massage her tits,"You're loving it aren't you? You're so dirty aren't you? My queen," he groans in her ears before he forces her head down to the bed and fucks the living Daylight out of her. She screams in the sheets as her orgasm came over and over again
Chapter 83.This period was especially naughty since the women would be on heat and do their best to find their males with the use of heir pheromone. It was Octavia' s favorite day of the month. It was just mid-day but the preparations were in a full swing, everyone was getting ready to celebrate, every single person had the chance of finding a mate. "I might get lucky with a girl you know." Conan whispers to his brother and Asher mocks him with a laugh, "No offense but I think you're meant to be single all your life." His Savage remark makes Conan's mouth drops to the floor, he had the worst brother ever. Sheila was dressing Loki up in something prestigious, it was a royal attire for the most esteemed soldiers of the kingdom and he looked gorgeous in it. He desperately tries to make his hair smooth but Sheila kept roughening up. "I like it this way." She smiles seductively at him but he didn't like how
Chapter 82"Xerxes, go to Arcadia, apologise to her, I'm recovering already." She does her best to convince him to go speak to his daughter, it had been three days and he had refused to see Arcadia after she defended Mace,"I want to stay with you." The tears choke his voice but she manages to pull him into an embrace, and he sheds tears for the first time in quite a while, "Arcadia has broken me completely." He sobs uncontrollably,"Xerxes, she is your daughter, she would hurt you from time to time. But," she takes a pause, "I have a feeling she is Bewitched."He raises his head in shock, "what?! Charmed??" It sounded do off to him but Octavia had noticed that her daughter was not the same anymore, she nods her head slowly, "could that be why she is defending Mace with her life?""I believe so, she does not even know she is under a spell but it feels like true love. I am weak and it would take me time to break the spell,
Chapter 81"I'm fine mother, it was just a scratch." The morning had come and they had managed to defend themselves against the parasitic demon wolves, Octavia had refused to leave her daughter's side and the excessive doting had gotten on Arcadia's nerves."It is clearly not just a scratch, you could have lost your foot Arcadia!!" She is so worried about her but she didn't see it as a big deal,"Mother please, I'll be fine, Mace is here to take care of me." She points to her new lover who was leaning on the wall, she eyes his carefully, she had observed that she had been getting closer to Mace all of a sudden.It felt too off to her, and what she saw last night was even more unsettling. She came to aid her daughter with her injury and she saw Mace in wolf form, he had the same dark appearance of one of the demon wolves but the only thing he had different was his eyes.She guesses anyone could have that appearance but his
Chapter 80."Loki!!" He runs at the speed of light to find his brother and he sees him trying to pick food for his stomach, he wasn't picking but he was stealing instead. He gives him a hard slap on the back and he chokes on the corn he was eating,"What now?" His is angry and Mace chuckles deeply knowing fully well his brother does not like to be disturbed when eating,"Your charm works!! Arcadia is in love with me!!" He is ecstatic, and the smile on his face is oddly happy,"Well that's a good thing but this happiness of yours is what is confusing me." He chews his corn in low-key suspicion, Mace punches his chest,"It means our plan is working, she can't say no to me or to my touches, I was able to feel her skin and not bleed to death." And Loki chokes on his corn,"You touched her?!" He gets some water and eyes the entrance to make sure none of the cooks saw him stealing food, "it is that potent?" He didn't believ
Chapter 79.Morning came and there had been more news about the demon wolves attacking anyone they see, it had put Arcadia in a difficult position as her people came t her begging for help, seeking protection from their Queen.But everything was amiss.Xerxes and Octavia had gone to investigate the matter and were attacked by a few wolves but made it out as she used her powers to defend the both. It was a side of Octavia he had never seen and she had a lot of explaining to do; majority dating back to her past.She had to set up charms to ward off the demon wolves with the scent of roses which they found offensive, it was the major reason they kept attacking the town as most of the people living in it were of the rose clan."That is the last one." She ties it gently to the biggest tree and she runs the sweat off her brow, she feels dizzy for a while but her husband is behind her to catch her, "thank you so much, it's been a
Chapter 78"Arcadia??" He called out to her but she didn't open her door, he pushes the door open but he notices a weight blocked it from opening fully, he slides himself through the small space and sees his daughter unconscious on the floor, "Arcadia!!" He lifts her up and drops her on the bed, she moans lightly as she struggled with sleep, but alas, it had left her when he carried her,"Father?" She rubs the sleep out of her eyes, "what is the matter?" Blue eyes stare into blue eyes but he was troubled,"I saw you on the floor, I thought something bad had happened to you," he was filled with fear after what Octavia said Sativa told her, "I didn't know you were sleeping.""It is okay, I fell asleep actually," her eyes scan her room but he could see the we're swollen, like she had been crying, "father I have a question?" He nods in approval for her to speak, "what are the qualities of a good Queen?" And this was when self doubt
Chapter 77Octavia is pacing round the room while Xerxes leaned on the wall, they were discussing the matter of the demon wolves and what Sativa had said about Arcadia."I think we would just kill Mace, he is causing too much trouble for my daughter." His suggestion makes her freeze to give him a hard look,"Did you not hear me when I said that the sage said that Mace is her Mate??" She goes off on him but Xerxes rolls his eyes,"Sativa is old, she can always make a mistake and not even know it." He counters and this makes Octavia groan loudly,"I've known Sativa since I was born, she gave me my name as she was an elder, she is blessed by the goddess, she can't make a mistake and travel a great distance to spill nonsense Xerxes!!" She took is personal and this irked him,"I want the best for Arcadia and Mace is not the best!!" He fires back and things went down south, she rubs her temples in frustration,"Are you sayin
Chapter 76Her eyes enlarged to the size of a frog's, "my Queen!! How old are you?!" Her question makes her erupt in laughter, it was so loud that Xerxes heard and when he saw her laughing he felt annoyed. He had been waiting for hours for her and she was having fun with Sheila, he was worried sick that something might have happened to her."I'm not so old!!" She pouts cutely, "I knew your mother, she was....a character...." She remembers the disturbance of a life time she got during her youthful years, Sheila sighed sadly, she missed her mother, "she was opportune to give birth earlier than I did. It's been close to four decades since the war against demon wolves, it has been long and it hasn't been long.""Octavia!!" His tone booms and gives her quite a fright, "I have been worked up since you left!! You didn't take any soldier with you, you just ran out!!""I took Sheila." She is quick to point out to hide her mistake,"Actua
