Their whispered conversation, hidden behind seemingly casual nods and gestures, was a clandestine negotiation of their shared resolve to depart.Michael glanced around the room, observing the faces and sensing the atmosphere, while Anthony's jaw clenched slightly, indicating an inner turmoil.

The electric charge of her presence fueled a tempest within, a potent mixture of longing and primal attraction that surged through every fiber of my being.I could still remember the potent allure, the desire, the intoxicating pull that had driven me to the edge of restraint to totally insanity.

Micheal’s POVI was sitting down watching Elena and Sophie who were already engrossed in lively banter, their laughter echoing through the room. It was as if they'd been friends forever, it was insane they had just meet few minutes ago.The jovial atmosphere would have been contagious, if I wasn’t too shock on what exactly was happening today in general. There laughter filling the space with warmth, even some of the guards had a smile on their faces and that was because Elena's infectious laughter and Sophie's quick wit created an easy camaraderie that was hard to miss. Sophie leaned in, talking in whisper and no Matt how hard I tried to hear what they were saying it wasn’t working.

I had taken Sophie first to her room and got a few hits from her when I was carrying her. She finalized lay her head on her bed and fell asleep , I kissed her on her head goodnightand went to close the window, looking outside noticing how the moon hung like a glowing orb in the indigo and the stars beautified the sky, it was beautiful night, I closed the window and step out of Sophie’s room.Walking through the hall, seeing Anthony with Elena I walked towards him him, he held Elena in his arms. Her was still laughing but not as loud as before murmuring words that had no meaning or made no sense.Elena’s state was far from coherent; her giggles intermittently disrupted by hiccups.As we got close to Elena's room, a sudden puking noise broke the silence. Elena threw up all of a sudden, making a mess on Anthony’s shirt with the unexpected vomit. Anthony l
Elena’s POVI woke up to a strange yet comforting sensation—something was different. The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. As my eyes fluttered open, confusion washed over me. I found myself snugly tucked between Michael and Anthony, the two people who had become such integral parts of ruining my life.I lay there motionless for a moment, my mind racing to make sense of the situation. I couldn’t remember getting into the car, I could remember dozing off in the car, leaning on Anthony ‘s Shoulder, while Micheal held my hands and meeting someone new, I could place my head on who it was, that was all i could remember.Did I sleep with Anthony and Micheal?The realization hit me of what could have happened which making my heart race a bit faster.

Anthony’s POVThe lavish splendor of the palace's dining room glimmered beneath the soft illumination of crystal chandeliers suspended from the intricate ceiling. This was the sort of setting where every gathering exuded a royal elegance. Tonight, however, held a different air. I stood near the table's head, anticipating a meeting of great importance – a rendezvous with our mother, Nancy, whose absence from our lives had seemed like an eternity. Looking around, I absorbed the grandeur of the room, its impeccable setup suggesting the significance of the moment. The doors swung open, as Micheal strolled into the dinner room, with his hair shattered and only a pair of joggers with Sophiebeside him laughing at one of his silly jokes.“ what?!!”, Sophie yelled at me but held her head in pain “ Getting drunk side effects”, I smiled and she rolled her eyes and sat down “ Why you shirtless?”, Alfred asked as he entered inside the dinning room and goes towards the fridge to get a drink.“
Anthony’s POVMOTHERThis was the longest meal ever, it seemedlike time had stoped and the food was never finishing and wasn’t enough and everybody was silent, if you listen very well you could hear the sound of our breath and even closer the size of their hands."I heard that you two have taken up a mate, where is she?" Her question hung in the air, tinged with a hint of concern after stealing glance at I and Micheal.My heartbeat quickened at the mention of Elena, she was now a vital piece of our family puzzle. "Maybe is hiding away from,, Mother," I replied, trying to conceal the unease I felt about Elena's delayed arrival.Without Elena around, my thoughts drifted back to last night and this morning, hoping she wouldn't feel too shy to join us. Her late arrival made the already tense atmosphere even more uneasy. Nancy was demanding yet expectant, I wonder what she had in place for Elena, I secretly wish that she didn’t come.The doors creaked open again, and a hushed silence fell
Queen Elena Gotham“Bloody hell, are they fucking trying to wake the dead?” The man’s voice in my ear growled and I tried to bite down on the laugh that bubbled up inside me.The noisy grind of saws and breaking concrete made me screw my eyes open with a satisfied yawn and my lips formed a smile at Michael’s husky voice.“Good morning my love-” Anthony growled before pressing his lips to my head, the amusement twinkling in his eyes as I blushed furiously, untangling my body from their twinned limbs.It had been almost three weeks since the war and the birth of our son, Aiden Gotham, and Carla’s daughter Yulga.Anthony and Michael had moved me fully into their grand chambers and Gotham’s rebuilding was slowly coming together, with double the size of the men and cannons we had before.“Your Highnesses! The royal mistress’ carriage is ready,” A guard’s voice boomed in the hallway and my shoulders tensed immediately as I sucked in a breath.Shit, I had almost forgotten we were supposed t
Michael GothamAdrenaline shot through my body like liquid dynamite and I knew deep inside me part of it had to be the curse working.It felt like a rift was opening in my head as my wolf shifted into place, my muscles bulging until there were plate-sized grooves in my shoulders and biceps before I charged at the flood of beasts, taking out a decent chunk of them by swinging my long sharp claws in a messy arc.“Who dares to invade Gotham?” I roared at the beast’s approaching and the frail line of guards between us with their shields up. Fuck, with most of our firepower soldiers injured I knew the string of guards would be no match for the colossal beasts that were pounding their way towards us with thick white drool dragging at the corners of their mouths.“Markov! Eyes on the gates! We need to stop that thing from getting any closer!” I thundered at the gaunt wolf who flashed his fangs in understanding, knocking down more the the beasts when they got too close.I flew at the beast a
ANTHONY GOTHAM“What the fuck was that?” Michael’s harsh voice rasped and I snapped my head up in time for a woman’s haunting scream echo through the dark woods again.The thick line of blood smeared around Michael’s jaw from the carcass he bit into looked garish with the silvery moonlight beating down on us between the thick pine trees.What the hell was any woman doing out here by this time?And why the hell did it sound so familiar? A bolt of unease rips through my gut when the woman’s screams comes again, closer...more desperate.My feet are moving before I can stop myself just as I hear Michael curse behind me before his heavy footfalls tear through the space.The sight of a large beast on top of the red-haired woman made a bellow break from my throat as I watched the Cove beast’s eyes snap up before he flashed his fangs at me and disappeared.Those eyes…shit! Alfred? “Are you okay Carla? Bloody hell, what the fuck were you thinking coming up here by this time?” I roared, cuppin
Carla WinehouseMy belly felt like a volcano pit about to erupt as I glared down at the dark-haired woman who watched me back with a stony expression on her face.“You are not allowed in my chambers, Carla Winehouse, how many times do I have to say it for it to get through to your thick skull-” Elena spat acidly, her bright grey eyes narrowing dangerously as I fought to keep the shock from showing on my face.My heart started its harsh mechanical grinding in my chest and it was all I could do to keep from leaping at her.Who the hell did she think she was?I stalked toward her slowly, waiting until I was only inches from her stupid perfect face to snap my claws around her neck, surprised when her hands shot up to squeeze my arms.“Just because you’ve been away for however long you have Elena, doesn't mean that anything’s changed in this palace,” I growled, tightening my claws around her neck before flicking her wrist away when she beat at my chest and shoved her into the wall.The rag
Michael GothamMy mouth tasted like a rat had curled up and died in it when I came to.“Michael? Can you hear me?” The rogue’s scratchy voice made me drop my fangs instinctively.Just how close was the motherfucker to me? Bloody hell if I didn't know any better I'd have sworn he had a crush on me or something!My eyes rolled around in my head before I dared to open them, the black pinhole of my vision slightly easing as I glanced around the dark room and realized I was hissing.What the hell was up with that?My veins felt like they were filled with molten lava and it was all I could do not to claw at the beautiful woman that strutted into the room only minutes after.“Could you get me more of this Markov? Please?” I whispered when he hesitated, still cradling Elena in my arms and watching his gaze flickered between the two of us before he snatched the blood bag from my hands, muttering curse words under his breath.“I'm not your fucking butler Gotham, get your own fucking blood next
ELENA GOTHAM“M-Michael?” I gasped breathlessly, inching hesitantly toward his cold face before I saw his lips twitch and I shot across the room like a freight train from hell.“Careful Elena! Heck! The baby!” Markov’s scathing hiss was quick behind me but I didn't care as I wrapped my hands around Michael’s hard body, marveling at how much bigger he had gotten.It was like he had changed overnight! “Oh my goodness! Freaking hell, you’re alive! You don't know how happy I am!” I managed to choke through the tears that were now streaming down my face.“I can see it,” Michael grunted and I pulled back to see the ghost of a smile on his face, noting how the dark circles around his eyes were gone.It felt too good to be true.“W-what herb is this? Did the nursemaids put you on some miracle moonshine or something? Heck, this feels just like one of Alaric’s experiments-” I chuckled unsurely now, my hands shaking on his chest before Michael’s hands circled mine, the sight of his black veins
ELENA GOTHAMThe soft chirping of the birds outside made a smile spread across my lips before I screwed my eyes open with a lazy yawn.The sun fell in yellow slants through the thick grey floor-length curtains and I allowed myself a contented squeal.My entire body felt pleasantly sore and I pressed my fingers to my lips as memories of Anthony and me last night flashed through my mind.I had never imagined my little seduction would work so well with a baby between us and my body throbbed as the memory of his need and longing washed over me again.I wasn't going to lose Anthony now or let that Carla wench play her silly little games in Gotham anymore.“Emily!” I screamed, yawning as I shuffled out of bed to splash cold water on my face, eyeing my straight black hair that parted around a slender oval face in the mirror.My breath caught in my throat when I saw how swollen my lips were from my husband’s kisses and heat fanned up my neck to my cheeks.The muted sounds of soldiers parading
ANTHONY GOTHAM“God I've missed you so fucking much-” I growled, groaning as pleasure shot through my body and goosebumps skittered over the bulk of my arms where I had pinned her hands against the wide wood bed frame.Elena’s porcelain face contorted in pleasure and pain as I nibbled at her lips, plunging deeper into her pussy and forcing back a shiver when she flexed around my cock.“I've missed you too Anthony…I thought…FUCK! I thought I'd never see you again-” My Queen panted, and I relished the way her breath caught in her throat when I rolled one pink rubbery nipple between my fingers, watching the way she arched her back into me.My entire body felt like it had gone up in flames and blood pounded in my ears as I plunged faster and faster between her splayed legs, allowing my eyes to squeeze shut as her moans grew louder and louder.I was almost sure the creak of the bed hitting the wall could be heard from a mile away as the sound of my balls hitting the soft round moons of her
ANTHONY GOTHAMI charged into the room faster than a freight train going off the rails when Elena’s scream tore through the palace.“What the hell?” Markov hissed, wide grey eyes swinging to face me before we both shot off.“Shit,” I hissed, my heart thumping with every step.Was Elena hurt? Was the palace under attack?! I felt my breath hitch in my throat so violently that nausea rolled through my body.Hurt and terror thrummed in my chest as I broke through the double doors, catching Elena just as she flew away from my brother’s pale body, her grey eyes wide with fear.“What the fuck is going on?” I roared, my voice harsher than I would have intended when the woman’s teary eyes met mine.“It's Michael…he…he-” Elena hiccuped, whipping her head from side to side before I caught her in my arms.I couldn't help the way my heartbeat spiked in my chest and held her in my arms reflexively. What the hell was she doing? I didn't like admitting that seeing her so heartbroken scared me, and c
