Dimitri has yet to fill me in on what was going on and I was beginning to freak out. Since he got into my car and I have been driving around Los Angeles aimlessly because I was instructed to not stop, he has been talking to himself as if he was losing his mind.
“Dimitri you are going to have to tell me what is going on at some point because like it or not we will have to stop for gas soon,” I said trying to gain his attention.
“Let us go on a date.” He said out of the blue.
“What? What do you mean let us go on a date? Right now? No. Tell me what is going on first. Stop beating around the bush.” I scolded as I stopped at a red light.
I shifted in my seat and turned my body to face him.
“Come on, it will be fun. Plus, it might give us a chance to talk. You know, catch up on how the weather has been lately.” He joked nervously and scratched his head.

Destined to Reign Avoiding the Inevitable
Adelina Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)Well, I felt like an outsider. I watched as Isla walked away, leaving Dimitri and me alone together. I hated him so much right now. He was going to ruin all of my plans.“What are you doing?” I asked him sternly.“Stopping you from destroying that girl’s life. I know what your plans are, and I need you to stop lying to her. Or else I will tell her everything. Do not think for a second that I do not have my suspicions about what really happened to her parents. I will discover where you are hiding them, and I will bring you to your knees.” Dimitri warned and all I could do was chuckle and shake my head.He was bluffing. There is no way in hell he could be onto what I was really planning to do but his suspicions are going to mess with Isla’s head. She is so naïve.“Tell me what you know and maybe, just maybe, I will tell you whether you are right or wrong.&rdq
Destined to Reign The Calm Before the Storm
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I stood impatiently by the door while Adelina tried to find ways to prolong my stay in the house this morning.“Okay, at least take some food with you instead of spending money. You really need to learn to save sweetheart.” Adelina pointed out and I rolled my eyes.“I am okay. I will manage at work today.” With that, I opened the door and left the house before she could utter another word to me.I got into my car and made my way to the office. Los Angeles traffic was the usual today, but I learned some shortcuts throughout my journey back and forth to the office, so I got here within an hour. I made my way to Dimitri’s office immediately.I should have brought him breakfast this morning. Damn.I thought to myself but shrugged it off.If he happens to be hungry this morning, then I can take that as an opportunity to take him out to breakfast. I checked the schedul
Destined to Reign Unveiling the Dark One
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I figured that while I am here in the palace alone, I should do some investigating. First, I had to ensure I was home alone. I walked around the palace, opening every door and checking every room to make sure Adelina was not there.Can fairies turn invisible?I pondered. It may sound like a stupid question, but I could not be certain about the abilities of a fairy. Especially one that has been appointed the title of queen of all fairies.I had been walking around for about an hour at this point. This place was so big, and I have not even covered the rooms upstairs yet. Though the rooms on the second floor are only bedrooms and bathrooms and I highly doubt Adelina would randomly occupy a guest room or bathroom when her room itself is like the size of my house back in the human world.I sighed from tiredness and walked into the kitchen to grab myself an energy drink. My human form was really unfit and that i
Destined to Reign Run Isla! Run
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I wanted to manifest my vampiric side but did not know how to. I have only manifested that part of me by accident whenever I got too angry or felt murderous.With knees weakened by fear, I continued to walk deeper into the room toward the nerve-wracking sound.What I found was simply gut-wrenching. I wanted to throw up, but at the same time, I was too horrified to muster enough muscle spasms to regurgitate my dinner from last night.“M-mum...dad?” I rushed over to their limp bodies to inspect them.I immediately checked for a pulse on both of them.“NO NO NO NO NO!!!! THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING. PLEASE WAKE UP. PLEASE!!! PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE ME!!! MUMMY!! DADDY!!! SAY SOMETHING!!” I screamed repeatedly at their limp bodies.Soon enough, I felt a weak pulse on
Destined to Reign Damsel in Distress
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I do not think that Adelina has noticed my absence as yet. I mean, why would she? I have not been gone for long and there is little to no indication that something is going on. That is, unless she goes to the dungeon and notices that my parents were moved, and my father was fed water. Probably not smart on my part but I could not help it. I could not just leave my father to suffer as much as he did before he died. I had to do something. It was the least I could do for abandoning them.I was finally out of the forest; I found my car and I immediately got drove out of the area. I knew to myself that I could not go home because Adelina would be expecting me to go there. I did not have any friends or family to turn to, so I was stuck. Maybe I could go to a hotel, but I did not have that kind of money. I worked off and on for Dimitri but never worked enough to actually get paid.That is also another thing that has been weigh
Destined to Reign Mate to the Rescue
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I slowly walked toward the door, and I opened it. I did not want to aggravate her any more than I may already have.Adelina stood there with disappointment written on her face.“What are you doing here Isla? I thought you had work today. I would not have pegged you to be the type to lie about your whereabouts just so you can have some alone time with your boyfriend.” She scolded and shook her head in disappointment as she stepped inside.Oh, so she does not know that I know about her secret.Play it cool Isla. You can get through this.I took a deep breath and walked toward the living room to take a seat on the couch. This was really my weak attempt to seem nonchalant but really my heart was in my a*s.Alessandro Petrov (P.O.V
Destined to Reign Attack of Isla
Alessandro Petrov (P.O.V.)Unfortunately, I was currently stuck in traffic as I made my way over to Isla’s house. I wonder what was going on over there. She sounded so scared that I felt shattered from the inside out. I needed to get over there as soon as possible but I could not do that because I was stuck in traffic.Deciding that I might just get to her faster on foot, I parked the car at the side of the road, not even paying mind to the possibility of being towed or ticketed for illegal parking. There was not much forest around this area, so I had to get off the highway and walk a bit until I could be deep enough into the forest to shift into my wolf.After approximately ten minutes of walking in a straight line aimlessly through lots of bush, I figured that I was hidden enough to shift into my wolf, so I did. As I landed on all fours, I howled loudly to signal to any wolves nearby that there was danger. Any werewolf can decipher from
Destined to Reign Challenge Me if you Dare
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)“Now you see, in a time like this, if only you knew how to use your necromancy ability, you would be able to kill me in a second without even moving a muscle. Let me teach you to use your powers. We can be a team. I can show you how to be great and powerful. You do not have to be this weak.” She said gesturing to my body and scrunching her face in disgust.“When are you going to get it through your thick skull that I do not like you nor will I ever like you. There is no way I will ever work with you or stop fighting to get away from you.” I spat at her bitterly.Nothing I said seemed to have an emotional impact on Adelina. She was dead set on having me and trying to manipulate me to do just that. Whether I became an alliance willingly or by force, she did not care. I held every intention in my hear

Destined to Reign Back Where We Belong
Hunter(P.O.V.)When we finally reach the Clan, it was already past midnight. The journey was peaceful; my mate had fallen asleep on my back. My mom has also remained unconscious, but the soft breaths I heard on the way confirmed that she is been sleeping. Dad mind linked everyone to stay inside, saying that we retrieved their Queen, but she is sleeping so they can see her after she wakes up. I see Theo and Liam get out of the house to help us with our mates.The rest of the guys leave to their respective houses, seeing that everything's fine now. Theo helps get Skye off my back, so I can shift, while Liam helps mom. Dad shifts and we carry our mates inside. Skye wakes up in my arms with a start, gasping in shock when she sees me. I feel her body tense, as she glances around the hallway."Shh, little mate, you are okay. I am taking you to my room so you can rest. Well, after we get you clean." I smile lovingly at her, not showing her how pi

He is desperate to get to hismate and soon the other guys join him.I glance at the unconsciousgirl in my arms then carefully carry her away from the mayhem.Theamount of bruises on her body is concerning, but the only thing thatcatches my dark side's attention is the smell of male's seed coming from herbody. I notice a trail of dried white substance on her thighs,confirming my fears. The blood between her legs tells me she was forced.I will kill the fucker who did this to her.I carefully lay mymate by the tree then take my shirt off and put it on her. She is onlywrapped
Destined to Reign A Rescue Mission
Skye (P.O.V.)No, not again. Please God no.I am so tired and fed up of going through this. How can a father do this to their own child?It is disgusting.I never understood why some people would willingly have children only to mistreat them later on in life. In my opinion, it takes a different type of person to do something like this to their own flesh and blood. To the persons who have justified my father's actions in the past by telling me that he was depressed and how much he missed my mother, go fuck yourself. People lose their loved ones all the time. Not because I may look like my mother means that I am her or gives him any right to violate me.He is a disgusting man, and he deserves to die. I really hope he does.And I know it is said that you should not wish bad upon others or wish death upon others because karma will get you, but I do not care. At least if I die, I will not have to endure this lifelong pain and suf
Destined to Reign Captured
Trigger Warning: This chapter mentions r*pe and inc*st.Skye(P.O.V.)I tried to separate my mind from what was actually happening to me in this very moment. I tried to zone out like usually would on any other given day. When it happened the first time, I was traumatized. When it happened the second time I was furious...but when it continued to happen after time and time again of trying to escape, I knew that this would simply become my new life. I was no longer sad, or depressed. I was no longer traumatized - okay maybe this is the definition of trauma but I felt numb.I was finally numb to the pain and betrayal I felt all this time but what was so different this time.As much as I wanted to not be able to think or feel, I could no longer control it. Is my brain really trying to get me to confront my problems now?If so, then it really has some messed up timing.Of all the things I should b
Destined to Reign Unexpected Trouble
Twenty years later….Hunter (P.O.V.)"Hunter!"I feel fingers poking my cheek, but I try to ignore them.If that mystery person knows what is good for them, then they would not be trying to wake me up from my very relaxing slumber. As I tried to ignore the intruder from waking me up, I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to drift back into the dream I was just having. It was fresh in my mind and though the very sweet slumber that I was having felt nearby, as the little nuisance continued to bother me, I could feel it drifting further away from me.Great, now I am about to be grumpy for the rest of the day. I wanted to wake up fully to push the assailant away and maybe lock my goddamn bedroom door which I really thought I did do last night, but I know that if I force my tiresome body off this bed right now, I will be forced to actually murder someone today and I
Destined to Reign A Family
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I do not know what I was expecting but it was not this. Things were really bad at the clan and I could have sensed it when as soon as I got to the borderline and I think everyone felt it. The air felt tense and quiet and as soon as we got to Ambrosius's land I can feel everyone's stress and worry.Call it motherly instincts I guess.I sort of felt bad for them. Though, the situation was kind of disappointing. Ambrosius should have put his clan first. After all, he would not have great strength and power without them or their loyalty to him. However, that was not the case. He neglected his duties as an alpha and instead of thinking about the clan's needs, he got selfish and simply found a Queen replacement. A clan does not need a Queen unless she is capable of uplifting the alpha and the clan. Had he thought about this and the needs of his people, he would not have taken that skank in.What is even worse is that s
Destined to Reign Taking Over
Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I do not think that I can completely hide the fact that the thought of seeing Ambrosius again is making my heart race a million miles per minute. Since I left the clan and vowed to never go back since everything had happened, I got busy and never gave Ambrosius a second thought. I kept my mind on building a clan of my own and finding something secure and stable for myself. Something that I can call my own.Something that could not be taken away from me without a fight. A lot of fighting.But now as I prepare myself and his son to return to his clan for a visit, I could not help but think about how things could have been different. Had I not left the clan, how would have my life turned out.I mean I left and made a name for myself. I got stronger than ever and even built a family of my own. Loyal friends turned to family.I guess this is another case of 'everything happening for a reason.'I needed t
Destined to Reign Reuniting the Destined Mates
Shane (P.O.V.)It has been five years since our Queen left the clan and I can honestly say that it is like she left with the heart of it. The clan has never been the same since she left and it had everything to do with the alpha. Our leader, nature's chosen leader, has fallen since that God awful day Queen walked out on us. The clan felt betrayed to some point when she left because it was like watching a mother figure give up on you and even though we knew it had something to do with what the Alpha did, despite the fact that it angered all of us, we kind of had no choice but to side with him regardless.That is unless we wanted to choose to go rogue and then join her clan of Deads. Which is something that we will never do of course. Part of being in a clan is being loyal no matter what. In instances where the alpha of that clan does not respect their clan members, practices a dictatorship type of leadership, or promotes fear instead of respect for obed
Destined to Reign Years Later
Five years later...Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I think that I have been doing well on my own since I left Ambrosius. Or at least that is what I have trained myself to believe, I do not need him or the Clan. I have been alone all of my life. Betrayal, loneliness, and pain is all I know, and it has become something that I have accepted. It is a part of me. It made me the strong woman that I am today. So much so that I now give orders instead of taking them and following them.This is nothing new.It was bound to happen eventually you know. This is who I am. This is what I had been trained all of those years to become.A Queen.A monster.How could anyone love someone like me. At this point it is kind of impossible. At least that is how I feel. It is how I
