JACKSON What a crazy fucking night… At least it was a story that we could tell our pups one day. Oh well. The craziness was over with, and now I had my delicious mate in my grasp. I had to share her all fucking night, but the only one that I would share her with right now was Zeus, which he agreed with. We had been putting our own personal touch on this magnificent suite. It had brought my girl so much happiness when Cali showed us the things that people had been able to secure from her family. She did not know yet, but Ziyah would be creating pictures from her memories. It was just like what she had done with the memory cube. Vampire hearing was far more sensitive than our hearing, therefore their soundproofing was of the highest quality. That helped since Nellie had moved into her own room in the suite. There was no way that my little mate would ever be able to keep her voice down when she was drowning in her own ecstasy. I loved how vocal she was about her pleasure both verball

IMEELA My mates did not disappoint me at all with their thorough worshipping. If I did not know that I had been the only person that Jackson had been with then I never would have guessed it. There was an art to his seduction and the way that he could command my body, making it sing to the tune that he desired. Jackson was always so calm, cool, and collected. However, it was such a magnificent sight when he let loose and lost that control in the bedroom. It was like his passion for me was all-consuming. That was an amazing thing to know. I was not someone with an ego, not generally, but I did feel smug about that. The first thing that we did when we pulled ourselves out of bed was to go for a run. Zeus was even faster now and kept up with my top speed. It made sense though because just like my mother had gained the same speed as a Precoza after coronation, so did they. I would venture a guess that Jackson’s fighting speed would be similar too, but I was not entirely certain since h

JACKSON The uptake in his heartbeat gave him away. I had seen the almost familiarity when Bane stepped up beside him, but I did not think much of it at the time. Was she recognizing him from those three weeks in Bane’s torture camp? He better pray that it was not or else he would learn the true meaning of torture. “I’ll give you one chance to spare some of the pain you’ll receive. What’s your real name, and what coven are you from?” she asked him in that same calm voice. That voice might make these idiots believe that they were not in danger, but it was actually quite the opposite. It was when she had that specific calmness that she was coiled tight, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. He was obviously a complete idiot because he just looked defiantly at her. Either he did not believe she would do anything or refused to give her the upper hand. Well, she did have the upper hand, so he would not be able to give it. She picked up a dagger and slowly walked around the table u

IMEELAIt was amazing that he had been able to pick up the mental links between Bane and the others. I had never heard of anyone being able to do that before. The most likely cause was due to Hecate’s blessing of identifying threats.He threw the daggers with such precision that his increased strength did some serious damage.The curved dagger glinted in the light, making the nameless asshole pale completely.I was glad that he caught the lie because I did not know about the Pramble coven. Zeus told me that it had been Kade who destroyed him with the use of his handy shadows during their first feeding room infiltration.Why was he hiding his identity so much? Was it because he was a corrupt piece of shit? Perhaps his coven leaders were the same way as well. There was no telling.The blade only had to make one slice before he caved.“Sylvester Claymore of the Crimson Moon coven,” he said through gritted teeth.My eyes narrowed, hearing the coven’s name. I had come across this coven’s sc

IMEELA I prayed that we got there in time before anything happened to them, and I prayed that they were still at the cave. There was no telling what all Bane or his lackeys had put them through. He was a sadistic sonofabitch after all. Venus and Roman accompanied Raul, Jackson, me, Santiago, Valeria, and Carmen to the cave. Thankfully, Raul knew where to go. I knew the grounds of our Palace and estate, but I did not venture out beyond that when I was a child. Jackson threw his cloak around us when we were about a mile out. It would keep us hidden, but we still needed to tread carefully because it did not hide the sounds of our presences. Off topic, this area was gorgeous. Thick woods surrounded us with a collection of beautiful trees. Their leaves were a variety of colors, adorning both the trees as well as the ground. Birds chirped high up in the trees while the sun streamed through the treetops. Chatter from up ahead caught our attention. Our steps slowed so that we could creep

IMEELA “There are other vampires there, but you will be safe. Our coven consumes donated blood or those who are willing and free of coercion. We don’t tolerate abuse of any kind. We also have a few other humans who live there and a few other supernatural species,” I explained. Curiosity took the place of the wariness in her eyes. I looked around and saw that the others also seemed curious. The toddler slowly waddled her way over to me and lifted her arms up. Who was I to resist such a cutie? She settled on my hip and smiled at me. God, she was so adorable. Curly black hair, light blue eyes, and the prettiest ivory skin tone. She looked like a little angel. “We don’t know her name, but we’ve been calling her Joy,” one of the females said, smiling softly at her. “Joy is a beautiful name for a beautiful girl,” I said, kissing her forehead. Jackson did warn them that the two guards were apprehended outside and could not harm anyone. They were a little apprehensive but still followed

JACKSONWe had prepared everything as much as possible for our dignitary visits.Since they would be traveling, we had ensured that there would be rooms prepared for them. Thankfully, the rooms for them were in the visitor’s wing, which was away from our humans and Fae friends.Not everyone who would be coming held the same ideals as us. This caused a precarious balance that we needed to handle. It needed to be done firmly, however we would not know how to properly balance that situation until it occurred.There were bound to be people determined to challenge our positions for different reasons.The biggest one was that many did not want the Precoza reign to be reinstated because that put them on a leash. Those who broke any of the laws that would be outlined within these visits would end up being punished.Secondly, they would see me not being a vampire as a slap in the species’ face or some shit like that. Not only would it be the very first time that the Vampire King was not a vampi

JACKSON I could not agree more. Something that I had noticed from the moment that she decided to reclaim her birthright was that this right here, this precarious game of balancing politics, was her domain. She would be the ultimate winner. If I did not know any better, I would say that it was her gift. Perhaps it was. Imeela was most certainly a motherfucking Queen because she welcomed the challenge, thriving within it because she knew how to wield her words as weapons to disarm, to stun, or even to strike. Her response had him grinding his molars. However, it had the Duchess giving my girl a quick smile of approval. Perhaps she did not hold all of the same ideals as he did. Imeela would end up discerning that during their visit. He then turned his attention to me, thinking that I would be an easy target. Well, bring it on then. “What makes you believe that you can rule over a species that is not your own?” he asked me. This was a question that I had been prepared to answer, know

Design of Fate Author's Note
To all of my amazing readers, I am happy to tell you that “Destined Alpha of Change” is now officially up on the app and ready to begin being read. Now, onto other important matters. First and foremost, I would like to thank you for how much support you have given me throughout these books. I love reading all of your comments, whether they were negative or positive, and use them to help shape the story as it evolves. Jackson and Imeela’s story was one story that I could not begin to write. I know that not everyone was thrilled during Theo’s story when Jackson took Brynn’s side after the rejection. However, it just showed the type of man that he was. The one who would help protect those who needed it, just like he did with Brynn. One thing that many of you had mentioned was that you enjoyed the species integration seen throughout this book and the Fated series. We will see the byproduct of that during the Legacies of Destiny series. Kalen’s story will be the first one, followed by

They were warnings of what was to come. A single person was going to be the spark that ignited the fire that would destroy everything that I held dear. It would lead to countless graves. The peace that our world experienced would be wiped away, leaving nothing but pain and chaos in its wake.The only way to prevent this was for me to identify the supernatural that was aiding him. My visions only showed me this one path to potential success. Yes, I said potential. If I succeeded, then it would save everyone and everything. However, it could very well be my demise.The plan unfolded where I would create my own trap to catch his attention.

EMILIOMy mind was a complete mess right now. I had a sleeping Princess cradled in my arms as I ran, searching for somewhere that was safe enough to rest.‘It is your duty to keep her safe. Run and do not look back. There will come a day when she returns here to avenge us, but it will be when she is older. We have every faith in you when it comes to protecting one of the most important gifts that we have ever been given and will never be able to express just how much we appreciate it. We have always loved you like a son, so let me give you one last piece of advice. Do not harbor guilt for leaving instead of fighting alongside the coven because you are protecting the future of our kind. That is the most important mission that has ever existed.’Those were his parting words. As much as he said not to harbor guilt… it was easier said than done. Instead of focusing on that, I focused on the fact that it was my duty as her personal bodyguard to always do what was necessary to protect her.J

LOLAI had been different my entire life. Not being able to hear anything made life hard. That was why Mom taught me ASL and how to read lips. It did not always help, but it did help sometimes. Mom and Dad were my only sources of consistency, but even that did not last.We were always moving around. They never told me why, but I had the feeling that it was because of me. Dad was a special kind of vampire, and Mom was an Elemental dragon. I might be young, but I understood what that meant for me.Sadly, we could not outrun every danger. Vampires caught up with us. Mom and Dad fought them off with everything they had. They took down many of the vampires. Then something hit my head, and I blacked out. I came to and saw my parent’s dead bodies next to me.My heart broke because I was all alone now. They would never be able to tell me another bedtime story. I would never ride on Mom’s dragon form again. There would never be another opportunity to tell them that I loved them.Lost in my sadn

JACKSON At the same conference as Epilogue 1 – I could not be any prouder of Lola as I watched her get everything prepared for her presentation. She worked her ass off to get to where she was at right now in life. Nothing held her back, and nothing slowed her down. It had been hard for her at first because she desired to be independent, but not everyone could communicate with her and vice versa. My amazing mate was the one who could break through her barriers and encourage her to get right back up. I had never seen Lola happier than when Ziyah had given her the hearing aids that she created for her years back. Lola was born deaf, so she never had the opportunity to hear people speak to her or around her. She never had the ability to listen to the sounds of nature. While she could not do anything for the second part, Ziyah had been able to fix it to where the words were picked up by the devices and then sent as a mindlink. A lot of attention to detail was found in how they worked.

IMEELASix years later –I checked my appearance one last time just to make certain that I looked presentable for the supernatural conference that we were attending.The pencil dress came to my knees. The top was white with a notched neck and three-quarters sleeves. The bottom was black with strips of black and white crisscrossing the waist. My hair was pulled into a low side bun with my newly designed diadem.Honestly, I hated wearing the crown in public, which this conference was, but our normal diadems were not official enough, according to our Cabinet, so we designed new ones that were more official looking. They were more pronounced with the Precoza crest designed within it.I opted for a natural look with my makeup, so it just highlighted my features. Luckily, my mates did not care if I wore makeup or not because it was not something that I cared about either.“You look beautiful, Mom,” Zion said from behind me.I turned around and smiled at my handsome son. He was as tall and bu

IMEELAZiyah had called me earlier and said that she had something special for Lola that should help the most with her deafness.Lola was a blessing in disguise when we first met her. She had been through so much in her short life, but it proved that she was strong and resilient enough to soldier on and keep going. Her biggest hurdle in life was learning to navigate being deaf in a supernatural world.There were many shows and movies out there that show how easy it was to overcome that hurdle and still live a completely normal life. That might be how it worked for humans, but it was extremely dangerous for supernaturals. Our world was a chaotic one where we always had to look out for the dangers hiding in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.Lola was so fucking strong that it made us incredibly proud of her. She had learned how to read lips with damn near perfect accuracy. She was also learning how to defend herself against any attack. Zion took it upon himself t

JACKSONThree years later –I chuckled as I watched Amira and Cyrus playing tag with Zion outside.Imeela rested her back against my chest. It was a very comfortable Spring with the sun shining down on us.Amira was a pro at this game already because of her gift. She could use her shield to essentially cloak her just like I could via casting. This, however, also hid her scent, breathing, and heartbeat. Thankfully, Ziyah was able to put a block on it so that we would always be able to find her even if she was cloaked.Emery was practicing her dance routine off to the side where she would not be in the way. The girl was really fucking talented. I had never liked ballet before, but I watched every routine she had and got swept away in the emotions that it evoked each and every time.Zion fell to his knees and gripped his head, crying out.We were next to him in an instant. Zion had a high pain tolerance. He broke his arm last year and did not scream or anything. He whimpered, but that was

JACKSONI was currently sparring with Santiago. He was a great opponent because his training and heritage really made him really fucking lethal when he wanted to be. Thankfully, he liked me enough to allow my continued breathing.It only took training with vampires for about four months before I could keep up with them entirely speed wise. Strength was a different matter because there was a biological difference between our species. However, sealing the bond with my girl gave me additional strength. I might not have been able to deck a vampire quite as hard as another one could, but it did not matter. I just had to be more strategic on when and where to hit. However, the blessing of strength that Hecate had given to me at the coronation and also the boost from being crowned King put me as close as possible to being at the level of vampires.My fist connected in an uppercut, causing Santiago to fly up and backwards with his ass landing on the ground.He just laid there, panting heavily.
