Author's POV:
"We want all the maps of the Fated Kingdom especially the ones that lead us towards the Eastern Mountain." Zackarya stamped the scroll ordering the General as he shook his head in agreement.
"Can I ask why the Eastern Mountains sir?" The General asked as they felt the need of going towards the Eastern Mountains. They had a treaty with the people of their Kingdom that we would not dwell in their matters. Even the merchants of the Fated Kingdom weren't allowed to go there.
"Because we are going to start a war with them. You can go now." He ended up the conversation as the General left with dumbfounded expressions.
The meeting with all the advisors came to an end as everyone was shocked that he didn't celebrated his victory and started working already. Dark Spades came in the Fated Kingdom yesterday and they started working already as if they were preparing themselves for a war.
Eastern Howls living behind the Eastern Mountains were letting the people of Fated Kingdom peacefully as long as they would not interfere in their matters but now the general was anxious that Zackarya would destroy this peace as if he came here only to start a war with the Eastern Howls.
"They are trying their best to save the Queen. If she is dangerous then they should let us kill her already. Why save her?" Conner came inside sitting beside on the chair at his right side. They were left alone in the meeting room as everyone was gone after hearing their assigned duties.
"They can't stop us. We can kill the Queen whenever we want. I don't believe in those rumours. Also this is the general who is trying to save her." He took the sip of his wine as he was looking at the map placed in front of him. First he had to make the Fated Kingdom secure as he ordered Conner before getting up. "First find out that all people living here are actually human beings or not. We should have the record."
"Fine. But what if the rumours are real? If she is really dangerous then we should send her to the Eastern Howls as a weapon. She could destroy them." Conner asked turning around to look at him standing beside the door.
"Then the late King must have used her for attacking us. That means she isn't more dangerous than us." Saying that he vanished behind the doors.
"Point." Conner turned around looking at the map shaking his head at Zackarya’s statement.
Zackarya was moving towards the dungeon as he had culprits there. He just wanted to take a glance at them and he would be able to see what they knew about the Eastern Howls. He was the alpha as he had many abilities that others didn't have.
His steps were smooth as he stopped instantly sniffing something. It was the aroma of food but there was something else with that too which attracted him. He followed the scent as he reached the backside of the castle as behind it there were few rooms and a vast wild forest.
He glanced at the rooms as he finally reached one. The door was metallic and unlike others it was guarded by a large lock. There was a small window beside the room that made him more curious. The heat was still there as he had never felt it before except the age when he reached puberty that meant he was ready to meet his mate.
Within a swift he easily removed the lock as he felt something inside his chest. The door opened as at first he saw a room clad in darkness then a small fragile figure standing at centre of the room. The sunlight coming from behind him was falling directly on her face as he just took a glimpse of her hazel eyes when she lowered her head.
At first he thought it was because of the respect she was giving to him as a King but then he felt she was hiding her face.
He started taking steps towards her waiting for her to raise her head so that she could see him but she was so stubborn to listen to the King's command.
"At first I thought you are dumb but you are deaf too I guess." He stated with his blank expressions on his face as he was gritting his teeth out of habit. He was also annoyed by the nerve of this fragile form to make him wait.
The moment she raised her head her eyes started scanning him from head to toe as he was used to these types of stares from the woman. Sometimes they had admiration, sometimes lust and sometimes they were scared of him or mostly they were scared of him.
He had an urge to listen to her voice as he persuaded her and she did making him become furious as she was in average clothes and she was telling him that seeing her could be dangerous. She was scared while seeing in those grey eyes as she started looking everywhere else but him while taking a step backwards.
Her chin was wobbling a little along with her lower lips as she was at the verge of crying. Looking at her clothes and everything he came to the conclusion that she must be one of the staff members hired for the well being of the Queen.
He glanced at her lips as they were cherry colored perfectly shaped as her cheeks were also flustered. Her hairs were same as the colors of eyes as she was indeed beautiful. But he never liked fragile girls as he always wanted his mate to be strong and confident and here she wasn't even looking him. Even her voice was soft and melodic that could barely reach the ears of an average human being.
She spoke again as this time it made him to show her position because she was trying o make him scared that was a little amusing to him too.
"N-no one is allowed h-here." She was constantly stepping backward as those grey eyes were sending shivers to run down her spine. She hadn't seen many people in her life as she was seeing those piercing grey eyes for the first time in her life.
"I own this whole Kingdom now..." He grabbed her neck in an instant making her eyes go wide. The first ever contact of a living being."...and now I own you too." His eyes were getting hungry. He felt the heat between them rising. She was his mate. The heat increased the moment he touched her.
F**K! She is a human.
He was the Alpha male as he couldn't afford to manage a human mate. It could bring consequences for him but he could make her his slave. His eyes were absorbing her every feature keenly that he could barely feel Conner coming towards the room.
"Isn't it the Queen's room? Where is she?" Zackarya looked at the girl in his hold then at the room as it was looking like the room of someone belonging to the royal family. He glanced at the food placed on the couch as even the food was indicating that the room belonged to a Queen.
The steam from the food was still evaporating that meant the Queen was here before he could enter the room. He also wanted to see why people were so scared of seeing her face but she ran away, he came to the conclusion.
"We should ask her about that Conner. Take her and find the Queen she must have hiding in order to not show her face.” I released my mate from my hold as Conner came forward to grab her elbow. He would take out the information about the Queen on her own as he was also curious for finding out how many of the rumours about the Queen were true.
The moment Conner was about to drag her out of the room she immediately grabbed the handle of the door as if she was scared of stepping outside.
Zackarya didn’t have time for this as he left from there shaking his head. He had to take a tour of the Kingdom to see the people.
He reached the stairs as he found the General coming towards him. He smirked seeing him as he was waiting to present his Queen and kill her in front of him as he as trying to avoid the topic of discussing the death sentence to the Queen. It would be a huge surprise for him.
Zackarya knew that they kill the Kings and Princes as they make the royal women their slaves or they marry them. He didn't have any intention to marry and he didn't want The Queen with according to the rumours, some bad luck as his slave.
"I have sent all the maps in your office sir but as a general of the army I want to know about this war. What's the purpose of starting a war when we are living peacefully?" The General asked as he was in his forties with grey hairs and built-up body. He was strong and brave that's why Zackarya decided to make him his General too.
"You are not the only general here. The General for the werewolves’ army would be here soon and then we would start working. For now you can take a break from your work. I think my men have injured you badly." Zackarya patted general's shoulders from where he was injured as he bit his lip to stop him from wincing. Zackarya's smirk grew as his second general was indeed strong and brave with high sense of toleration. He would be of great help.
"I f**king love you." He said as he finally made her laid down on his chest. The sun was peeking through the window as now he was the witness too about their sinful actions like the moon and stars. "You didn't let me sleep." She pouted as her eyelids were heavy and she was dead sore from everywhere. He bit her everywhere. Her nipples were numb because of his assault as she couldn't feel her legs anymore. She felt like her soul had been sucked out of it. "Trust me you didn't need sleep." He said referring towards the moans the whole night. She enjoyed every bit of it especially when he took her against the wall. She just turned beetroot as she snuggled her face more into his bare chest. His chest was hard rock but she found it more comfortable than her feathery pillow."Is kaz here too?" She suddenly remembered as she asked out of curiosity. Amber pulled the same stunt as her. "No Amber has been abducted." He said and she swiftly got up looking at him with wide eyes but she soon rel
The sun rays were falling on her face as there wasn't any shadow provided by the curtains.Her hairs were tied in a bun a few flicks touching her cheeks and neck. The crown of her mother was sitting on her hair in all its glory going perfectly with her golden gown with embroidery of black stones on them. The stones were shining black as they were the most expensive beads due to the rare color found in its kind.These days the color of her heart was also the same just like black pearls. "People like you now." One of her maids said walking behind her. She just shook her head at it's been five days and eighteen hours since she had laughed. Since he had left. Since she was all alone despite being crowded by so many people. They were coming back towards the castle as she held a meeting with civilians to know about their problems and their views about her. She was ruling her own Kingdom now—her Fated Kingdom. People were no more scared of her and she could consider that as victory and th
He never bears lies and hates liars. You can say kill them...She remembered. Mana once told her but she never thought that she would ever be exposed to him. She decided to tell him when the right time would come but fate wasn’t on her side on this. Fate had given her the biggest blessing by giving him to her. By letting him open the door of her cage. But it also had made her suffer the hardships too. Everything comes with sacrifices and she believed in that but she would never sacrifice Zackarya and she hoped for that. She couldn't win against the will of fate."We will talk about it. I'll tell you everything. What do you want right now?" She asked again feeling her heart beating against her cheek. He hummed and his chest vibrated. "Stay here." His large rough hand caressed his back. He must eat something but he wasn't letting her move so she gave in and melted inside him willingly.There was an eerie silence between them as Zackarya eyes were closed. He was just taking in her sweet
Zackarya was already bleeding inside out and everything happened so suddenly that the last thing he looked at was Amairah and the last thing she looked into his eyes was broken trust for her. She broke him by her single lie. No matter if it was small or big she lied to him and made everything brittle between them."No..No...keep your eyes open." Amairah moved over to him. She patted his face but he couldn't keep his eyes open. He could never handle such a strong stroke of a witch. Amairah was screaming to open his eyes but he didn't and then he laid their lifeless with his eyes closed. "Look I would listen to everything you say. I would never tease you. I will let you do everything with me but don't do this Zackarya. My heart is sinking. Your kitten's heart is sinking. Your kitten will die too please." She was crying as she grabbed his jaw but no response came. Her tears were falling down on his face but he wasn't even flinching."Ahah!...I am the King of Dark Spades now. I waited for t
Fire. The whole castle was burning into ashes. The flags of Dark Spades were on fire getting in contact with the wave of fire. The flowers of the garden that Amairah prepared with so much heart were now turning into black sand as everything was eventually reaching its end. Zackarya got down from the horse as his face was devoid of any emotion but his heart was contended. Everything was going to be his plan and his people were safe too. "Haven't anyone told you that it's f**king ill-mannered to just f**k in someone's house without permission." His deep baritone voice echoed in the hall where his lifelong enemies were present. He didn't own any throne as he used them whenever there was a grand ceremony. So the king was just standing up on the stage looking at him but he was amazed looking at the three witches. They all shook his head at the General waiting for them with the soldiers at the upper aisle. He was looking all prepared.The two of them were the wizards with colourful hairs
We are under attack! She was too stunned to speak while Zackarya didn't even flinch after hearing that. His eyes were just fixed on Orester who was drenched in blood while it was oozing out from his different wounds on different parts. Zackarya raised his hand and a soldier standing beside him abruptly gave him his sword. Zackarya walked forward with his hawk-like eyes fixed on Orester. Everybody was looking at them as Orester had his eyes fixed on him with worry, pain and concern on his face. "Did you enjoy it?" Amairah’s eyes widened when he raised his sword against Orester's neck. Orester first looked at him with horror but gradually a smirk appeared on his lips. "Zackarya what are you doing?" Amairah asked as the sword was digging into Orester's skin. "He is the traitor." Kaz answered with his jaw and clenched and murderous eyes fixed on Orester. They all just looked at him with shock except the one who already knew. "What?" Amairah was in utter shock as she trusted him. He
