MiaIt was good to be back home. I had become the baroness and had also set some structures in place that wouldn't make me be there all the time. As hard as it had been, I had finally found people that I could trust to work for me over there and send reports to me.I couldn't live there forever as much as mum, Durian and Sloan wanted me to. They wanted me to get married there to another titled man and make babies for the throne, to keep the title alive in the alive. I was sorry to disappoint them but I had already gotten my mate and even though we would be making babies, they wouldn't be living there as well. They would also rule from afar as their mother was currently about to do.Even if I wasn't in a relationship, I didn't think I wanted that kind of life that the only reason I was going to be with a man was to give birth to kids who would carry on the throne and title of being a baron or baroness.Giving birth to kids only to ensure a continuation of the family line was a burden I
MiaDamn. Shit. Fuck. All three rolled into one and it wouldn't still have been enough for the emotions running through me. I felt guilt, annoyance and more guilt thrumming in my veins. We shouldn't have been too tired. We should have checked the letter.We had all slept off the moment we got to our rooms and didn't wake up for hours. Even the food that had been made for us had to be warmed up before we could eat it as it had gotten cold while we were still sleeping.John had finally come back home, told us he went for a drive as he was bored at home and we had all eaten dinner. We had then remembered the letter and it was then that we had gotten the shock that we hadn't been expecting.The messenger who had brought the letter had been right. We hadn't needed to think long about who had brought it. Even though it had not been addressed at the outer part, we had known who sent it the moment we opened the letter."From your once crazy fanged friends." Quinn had read out as soon as he op
MiaIt was a wonder how relationships can change actions. When we were coming here for the first time to look for Albert, we had been stopped by the border guards, drilled so much that we had to wonder if we were coming to steal from them or to get back what had been stolen from us.Now, it was different. The guards were there but it seemed like they had been waiting to welcome and usher us into the land. They smiled and bowed the moment they saw us, fussing all over us that it was uncomfortable.One of them reached for the bag in Quinn's hands and it took his quick reflexes to keep him from getting it. He didn't have to do that. We were fine on our own and could carry our luggage ourselves. It was just one bag that all our stuff was in and that wasn't too much of another. Moreover, we were both supernatural beings. Why did they have to pick up after us as if we were tired?"You are welcome back, sirs and Miss." One of the guards said, with a slight bow.I noticed that there were six
QuinnEthan was right. The food was delicious. I could feel my mouth watering already the moment we stepped into the dining room. He hadn't been lying when he said he had told his men to go all out and they had done so.His subjects really loved him and respected his orders. Now that they all had put the past behind them, they were with joy treating him as the king they had once loved and respected.It would have been a fairy tale if it hadn't been for the attacks by unknown sources that they were facing and didn't know what to do with it. I sighed as I looked at Ethan, hoping that this could be resolved as fast as they could. He was trying to be strong but I could see that he was really bothered by the events that were going on. His eyes were filled with fatigue and worry though he tried to soften them with his smiles.I snorted. He had to try harder. He couldn't fool me. He was in pain and he didn't have to hide that from us.What was the problem? That was all I could wonder and thi
Quinn"Do you know Ava is pregnant?" Mia asked as we got to the house we were to stay in. It was the same one we had stayed in when Rudolph got out of prison.I was glad that they didn't give us another house. We were already comfortable here and wouldn't have to start worrying about getting comfortable in another house.I looked at Mia and smiled. Her face was lit up with smiles as she spoke. She must truly be happy for her friend. I looked at her belly and imagined how she would look like when she was pregnant with my child. Even though she would be round with our child, I knew she would be beautiful still.Mia continued talking and chuckled. "She says she wants it to be a boy so Ethan would have an heir as soon as possible but he wants it to be a girl. He says he wants a beautiful princess who looks just as adorable as she was. Aren't they both cute?"I smiled. The only thing that was adorable to me was her and the smile on her face. I could watch her all day long and listen to her
ScorpioJasper walked angrily into my room, his expression furious and he glared at me with venom in his eyes. I arched my eyebrows at his rudeness but I wasn't angry.Jasper was my friend but he wasn't one to misbehave to me on that ground. He was one of the men who knew how to set the boundaries between friendship and duty when I had become the king of the land. He wouldn't have done what he had done without a reason and I was curious to know what that reason was.I wanted to know why he had dared to barge into my room without knocking. I wanted to know why he dared to look at me with those blazing, furious eyes when he knew that he could be punished for it. I didn't think that I had done anything to offend him to make him not care about the consequences of his actions. I didn't think that he was acting rashly as well. He wasn't someone like that. He was one of the most cool-headed people I knew. For him to have done what he did, he had thought of it for a long time before making hi
Ethan"Where would you like to have the training and how would you like to have them? Should the men be trained in batches or all together?"I was in a meeting with Rudolph and the male werewolves. Quinn smiled and handed a piece of paper to me."I already drafted out how everything is going to be, your highness. I think you should take a look and see that you have nothing to worry about. You are in safe hands."I smiled as I checked the sketch he had made. It was so detailed that I didn't need to ask him questions. I was glad that I had asked them to come to my aid and I realized at that point that I had made the right decision."Have you seen that there is nothing to be worried about, your highness?" Jack grinned."I know that now." I smiled and nodded. "Thanks for making my heart be at peace.""Thanks for trusting us with this responsibility." John smiled at me.I waved my hand, showing him he didn't have to be so formal with me. I was glad that he hadn't bowed to me. That would ha
QuinnIt was a drill. A hard one. I could sense that the men were tired but I wasn't about to stop. I wasn't about to let them go. I was angry, not at myself, not at the men or at their leader but at their enemies.What nonsense! I didn't think someone could be as daft as that, asking that someone on give up up his wife to save his people. I didn't think anyone could have dared to say that and expect that he would listened to. Did he truly think that Ethan would do that and he would get what he wanted?If someone asked me to give Mia up, I would kill the person a thousand times over before I thought of doing that. That was to show that I was never going to do that.I thought that anyone who became kings or rulers were the wisest of a clan. That was my first time ever of meeting someone who was dumb and I was both shocked and mad.I didn't know what else to do except to geek pity for the people that he was lord over - he would definitely lead those people to hell with his bunch of wron
