So I skipped the smexy part because I am terrible at it. Lol happy reading!
Bellona PovIt has been a week since our blissful reunion. Now I am fully back at the office. I can’t even imagine the pile of paperwork I have to handle, but thankfully I have Silver with me. I have been teaching him his duties as a king. I have not fixed a date on when he will be crowned, though, but it has to be before the annual ceremony. He will follow me there as my mate and king. We got to the office and wow.“You guys did this?” I asked, turning to Axel and Daniel. “Yes, since you guys have marked each other, technically it means he is our king, so we had to do this,” Daniel said. I smiled, looking at the office. It usually used to be one table and two chairs in the front, but now it’s gone. It’s now a much bigger conjoined table with two black chairs in the back of it and 4 for the guests. They redecorated the office with brown curtains, a red couch, and a cupboard filled with books. Spacious and professional.“I like it. What about you?” I asked Silver.“It’s nice,” he said
Bellona PovI stood in front of the ballroom that was filled with so many people. Today is a day of celebration, as the werewolf kingdom will finally get their king. Everyone is quite excited and the entire kingdom has been celebrating. I invited people, including the past alphas and lunas, and for the people who can’t make it to the ceremony are either watching from their homes or they are outside, whichever way we are all happy. I smiled as Daniel walked in wearing his new golden armor that signifies he was the new head warrior of the werewolf kingdom. Everyone started murmuring as he walked towards me. They were either murmuring because of his shiny golden armor or because of the tons of other warriors matching behind him. When he got closer, he kneeled in front of me and everyone quieted down. I took the bowl and knife and stood in front of him.“Repeat after me,” I said. “I, Daniel Jones,” I said. “I, Daniel Jones,” he repeated. “Promise to keep the werewolf kingdom safe and a
Bellona PovWe are done with the crowning and now everyone is just having fun. Mother left immediately she crowned him and so many were clearly disappointed. They wanted to see her more. But she had to leave. The next time they would see her is the next crowning ceremony which is not coming in the next fifteen years. King Atlas and his wife walked over to us and I was happy to see Princess Elma and her other half and kids with them. They look so happy and relieved and honestly; I am happy for them. “Congratulations, your majesties,” he said, bowing along with his family. We also bowed slightly. “Thank you, King Atlas. How is your kingdom?” I asked, smiling. They smile and you can see how genuine the smile is. “Things went back to normal after you left. We have had no vampire attacks except one time, but the powder she made chased them off and since then things have been peaceful,” he said. “That is really good news,” I said. “Yes, it’s all thanks to you and your kingdom. And the
Bellona Pov“Where are the pups?” I asked, standing up. Dean, Archie and Zira are not in the swarm of pups playing around on the dance floor. Silver also stood up, and it seemed everyone heard me over the soft music playing because everywhere was suddenly quiet. “Oh no, where did they go?” Lillian said, running to the dance floor, worried about lacing her tone. I carried my big ball gown in my hand, running down the small staircase. Silver followed behind, but I couldn’t sniff them out because everybody’s scent was just everywhere. “Spread out and find the princes and princess!” a guard yelled and there was an uproar in the ballroom but I just ran outside, my heart beating twice as fast. Nobody better touches them or somebody is going to die horribly and I mean it. But how can they just disappear with no one knowing?“Let’s look this way,” Silver said, holding my hand. I followed in the direction that he said, with Lillian and Kyle behind us, but it just seemed we were running in a
Silver PovI stand up from the lonely bed, once again I wake up to no mate beside me. It has been two months since the pups mysteriously disappeared. Yes, two agonizing months and a lot of things have changed. By a lot I mean Octavia. Yes, for some reason I prefer to call her Octavia. I feel Octavia is a cool soft name, and that is who she really is; it is just the world who has hurt her beyond words. That is why she now bears Bellona, but she will always be Octavia. After what happened, the annual ball was canceled. It couldn’t just go on because she wasn’t coming, and that just tells everyone how important she is, how powerful she is. The elders never listen to anyone or bend the rules for anyone, but immediately they heard her pups were missing. They called off the ball, a ball so many kingdoms have been preparing for. They even sent their condolence and in hopes we find them soon. Honestly, I was stunned by their care towards her, but I should not have been surprised. Octavia is
Bellona PovI cried, just rubbing my stomach. I can’t believe I am pregnant again and with three pups, but their brothers are not here to witness this. I want my pups so badly. My life is just so incomplete without them. “You are carrying pups, ‘’ Silver’s shocked voice said, making me look up at him. We both look terrible and it’s the effect of our pups. I didn’t realize we were both grieving, I thought I was the only one grieving because I thought I have been there for them since forever but they are his pups too and I know my actions must have hurt him but he never said a word. I looked down, feeling so guilty. I am a terrible mate, of course he also misses them.“Hey, what happened?” he asked. The care and worry in his voice just made me want to wish the ground should open up and swallow me. “I am sorry,” I whispered, still looking down. “I should have understood you were also grieving. I hurt you, Silver. I am a terrible mate,” I cried, putting my face in his chest. He breathe
Unknown Pov“How is she?” I asked.“Out of control, as usual,” she said. I hum, playing with my necklace.“She is really vicious,” I said, walking to my big window. Honestly, I did not expect her to go so crazy. I have seen her kill people and when she does it, her eyes are so dark and cruel. They send chills down my body. I have never seen someone’s eyes as cruel as hers. I am cruel and I kill, but she has no humanity left in her. When I watch her kill, I always wonder if she feels guilty? How can she kill with no feelings? I don’t even want to know what she will do to us when she finds us out. That day can never come, so I will continue to watch her every step.“Malcom, I don’t want to do this anymore,” she said from behind me. I turn to her and I can see the fear in her eyes, but we have started this and we will finish this.“You have no choice, Anastacia. You have put yourself into this mess and you will complete it,” I growled, making her flinch.“She will kill us, Malcom. If she
Bellona PovIt has been another month since my pups went missing. Absolutely three long and stressful months. I have stopped killing vampires and rogues; the kingdom is no longer on lockdown and we have all gone back to training. Everyone is weary of me. The only people not weary are Silver, Lillian, Daniel and Axel, but the rest of the kingdom is very scared of me. If I pass them, they just start shaking. I don’t care if they fear me that much. They should know that no matter how I lose control, I will never attack them. I don’t feel bad though. I still remember my pups every day and sometimes I cry about it, but Silver has been there, and he always consoles me. I know I will get my pups one day. I just wonder when. Another thing is my pregnancy. Everyone is quite shocked I am pregnant and the worst thing is 2 weeks after finding out I became big. I look like I am about to pop them out, but that is not even happening in the next 3 months. The pups have been active, and they have
Five Years LaterBellona Pov“Hayden!” I yelled, running around the house. I heard soft footsteps running around the dinning.“We do not have time for this. The ball is in a few hours!” I yelled, running around the dinning. I saw Hunter running to the hallway, but before he could move, I froze him. Then I turned around, and I saw Hayden and I also froze him. I breathed out in relief, walking to Hayden and Silver came inside with Dean. “They are not dressed yet?” he asked, shocked. He and Dean left us like 2 hours ago to make sure things were okay in the ballroom. He thought when he came back they would be dressed, but those two are the most energetic pups ever. Archie was not even that troublesome, but these two always make sure to keep me on my toes.“They have been running around since,” I said, carrying Hayden.“I don’t want to celebrate my birthday,” he whined.“Well, you have to. That is why you are a prince,” I said.“No birthdays,” he said, trying to sneak out of my arms.“Hayd
Third Person PovThe breeze blows gently against the high walls of the werewolf kingdom, the soft rain beating down the earth gently. It was a full moon tonight and everyone was in their homes, cuddled up with their mates and families. The night has been a long night for the people staying close to the palace as their queen has gone into labor since early morning. Everyone is worried and anxious as the queen cries of labor bounced off the palace walls. Werewolves’ births don’t usually take this long, but she has been in labor for more than 12 hours and, as each hour goes by, her screams are becoming more painful and filled with agony. Asher, Lillian and the pups are outside of the ward, and they are all pacing nervously. She has been in labor since and none of the child has come out, when the pain became unbearable for her Misha appeared. It’s like she just knew her struggles and she has been here since, helping her with the childbirth.“Why is it taking so long?” Bellona breathes
Third Person PovIt’s been a few hours since the war happened in the vampire kingdom and they are yet to be back. The time should be around 6 in the morning. Silver and the pups had freshened up, and Lillian cooked for them. They are waiting for Octavia to come back but Silver is itching to tell her about Asher but he can’t because she has to see him herself. She asked of Zira but he told her she was with Axel. He wondered what her reaction would be to Asher, but Silver knew it wouldn’t be good. “Why are you acting weird?” Lillian asked for the 100th time, looking at Silver puzzled. She noticed her brother has been pacing away quite a lot and also stealing glances at her.“I am not,” he replied. “Why are you looking at me weird, then? Is Zira okay?” she asked, looking at him. Silver shook his head, and Lillian cursed herself. She should have just followed them to the war, but Octavia didn’t allow her. She didn’t even allow her near the conference room when they were discussing the w
Trigger Warning almost at the end of the chapter!Third Person Pov“Missed me?” he asked, the familiar smirk still on his face. Bellona could not believe her eyes, no she refused to believe what she was seeing. I must be dreaming, she thought, pinching herself hard, hard enough to sting her to the bone, but she was not waking up from the dream. She closed her eyes, hoping they were not playing tricks on her, but when she opened it, he was still standing in front of her.“Asher,” she whispered, her voice filled with shock. The last time she saw him was in the cell and the next thing she heard of him was he was dead. Was he alive all this while? But she noticed another thing. He has changed, his hair is darker and longer. His ears are longer and sharp, he is taller and muscular. What shocked her was the giant black wings behind him. Instead of hands, he had claws and two long and fat horns sitting by the two angles of his head. His aura is also dark, like death, and when she smelled him,
Bellona PovIt has been 6 days since the death of Daniel. After Lillian was done with him, the warriors burnt his body and I think everyone respects Lillian better now. Well, that is the thing about us. To earn respect, you have to prove it and Lillian has proven herself of that respect. I did not tell Silver about his last words because I feel it’s irrelevant. He is already dead, so it’s better everyone move on from the betrayal and I think we all did because nobody is talking about him again. I stand in front of the mirror, looking at myself. The time is 4 ‘0 clock in the evening and we are about to move because we plan on attacking them in the night. Am I happy about this attack? Yes, I am. And why am I happy? Because in a few hours time I am going to kill a certain king and I don’t care how it will affect our kingdoms, he bit more than he can chew so he should expect the consequences.“We are waiting for you,” Silver voice cut me out of my thoughts. “Can you help me with this am
Bellona Pov“Yes, Daniel is a spy working for Malcom,” she said. My mouth hung opened in shock. Daniel? A spy? That can’t be possible.“Misha, are you sure? Daniel has been working for me for a long time,” I said. “He is working for you and also not working for you. He is part of the men that were working for Marcus. His loyalty lies with him,” she said. I tried to think of one time Daniel’s behavior was suspicious, but I can’t even think of one. He always seems like the protective big brother, but he has been betraying me all this while? My mouth opened and closed and no words came out. But I wanted to know something.“He also knew about the kidnapping?” I asked, feeling betrayed.“Yes, part of the people who suggested it,” she said, and my heart broke into pieces. This is the ultimate betrayal. I cared for him and treated him like a brother. I gave him whatever he asked of me, as long as he asked, but how could he betray me like this and he did it so well I didn’t even suspect him
Bellona PovWe entered her hut and took our seats in her special room. She sat in front of us and looked at Silver.“Glad to finally meet you,” she said, bowing a little. We both look at her. She doesn’t know him before. She must have just heard of him. “Glad to meet you too,” Silver said politely. She smiled.“Do you want to see your pups?” she asked. “Yes, we will love to,” I said. “Okay, face the mirror, ‘’ she said. I faced the blank mirror, and she flicked her arm and they appeared in the mirror. I smiled as I looked at the three of them. They are sitting on the bed, playing. They are surrounded by so many toys and they look healthy. I breathe out, relieved. They are perfectly okay and I can’t even see any injury to them.“Told you that picture was fake. They don’t even look like someone kidnapped them. They look so relaxed,” I said, smiling happily.“Your pups have been raining hell on them, especially Archie,” Misha said, and my smile widened. I expected nothing less from the
Bellona PovIt has been three days since I got back and not much has changed but today, however; I am on a mission to find Misha. The seal is enchanted, so if she can help me get the location, that would be awesome. Then I will get my pups and also rain hell on Orion. That plan sounds simple, but I know it’s not. I just hope Misha won’t start with her ridiculous game. I am a pregnant woman, so I hope that will stop her.“You ready?” Silver voice cut me out of my thoughts. I adjusted my gown, would have preferred to wear trousers, but I am bloated so nope.“Yes,” I said, walking out of the closet.“So, will your witch friend find the seal?” he asked. “Yes,” I replied.“How long have you known her for?” he asked, taking something off the wall.“Thousands of years? What is that?” I asked, looking at the iron log he pulled from the wall.“It’s a sword,” he said, bringing it out of the iron case. I looked at the sword, it looks lightweight and small, but the blades are looking incredibly
Bellona PovI chuckled, looking at him.“Me? Why would he want me after I turned him down millions of times and I think we all know I can’t just be tamed,” I said, rolling my eyes.“That is what I thought, until he sent this,” he said, giving me a picture. I looked at it and it was the pups. They were tied up in a chair and three vampires with long canines were beside them. I looked at their faces and it was red and swollen, like they had been crying. They were also bloody like they had been beaten. But something about this picture doesn’t add up. “This is quite interesting,” I said, looking at the picture. I can feel shocked faces on me. I looked at Zira and her eyes were blue, but I knew it is red. Archie can’t be tied up. He has powers and I know he can defend himself. Dean looks beaten and worn out and his eyes look bigger and red in tears, but the Dean I know has smaller eyes and he won’t cry outside no matter what someone does to him. I rolled my eyes, burning the picture.“Why
