Ambrosius Selinofoto (P.O.V.)

“Corpus levitas Diablo daminium mondo vicium. Corpus levitas Diablo daminium mondo vicium. Corpus levitas Diablo daminium mondo vicium.” Edith chanted.

The room got dark for a second before the lights turned back on. The temperature dropped significantly, and the room seemed to have welcomed a dark presence. I could feel someone standing behind me, but I refused to turn around to see who my friend was. I may be a vampire, but I know my battles. I stood still, even being afraid to breathe. I could only be thankful at this moment that I am not actually alive and that I only breathe as to not freak people out.

My eyes drifted to where Edith stood, and I watched as she pulled something out of a bag. It looked like a snake. It wiggled in her hand and hissed at her. She places it on one of the metal tables and began to chant again but this time it was something different.

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I will not lie when I say that Alessandro and I almost had sex that night. I mean it was expected as that is something that almost always happens when a man gives a woman a massage. I think if it were not for the fact that I actually fell asleep it would have happened, but I was turned on regardless of that fact. However, I valued the very deep sleep I got out of the massage, so when I felt his hands lingering in certain areas or straying to the forbidden parts of my body that I warned him about, I pretended to be asleep until I eventually did fall asleep for real.The next morning after that, I hoped he would not ask me about that night or even mention it. I had hoped that he would not be under the impression that just because I let him give me a massage is an indication that I have forgiven him for what he did or that he was making progress with me. I appreciated the massage and him helping me clean the house, but it is what

  • Destined to Reign   Hired Preparation

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I was awoken from my very deep slumber by consistent banging on my door. It was not coming from my bedroom door but rather the front door to my house. I rolled over in my bed and tapped my phone as to check the time. My eyes were still glued shut from the sleep that was just taken away from me. I struggled to open my eyes and when I finally won the battle, I was blinded by the light on my phone screen.It was five o’clock in the evening. Hmm not bad. I had expected to wake up at nightfall, to say the least.I had gotten a day off from Dimitri and his annoying theatrics so I did what anyone would do. I spent the night binge-watching vampires and werewolves fight while I finished a bottle of wine. I guess I stayed up a bit too late because I went to bed around nine o’clock this morning. When I finally got to crawl into bed I instantly passed out. The warmth, the comfort, the welcoming feeling my bed offered&he

  • Destined to Reign   Getting Ready for the Event

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)I turned on the shower and while I waited for the water to get hot, I went ahead and began to brush my teeth. When I got done with freshening up my breath, I undid the bun in my hair and stepped into the shower. I would assume that the hairstylist needed clean hair to make me look like a princess for the night.Today is the day of the charity event. After Dimitri told me I had to make an appearance and that I had no choice in the matter, I had been overthinking the event and thinking about the worse possible scenarios that could play out while I am there. Supposedly there would be an auction, where actual women would be bet on by old creepy men and would be forced to spend a night with them or go on a date with them. It is really up to the creepy old men on what they want to do to the women. Damn, that sounds bad. It is not anything sexual but more of a companionship sort of thing.When I learned about the details of th

  • Destined to Reign   Going Through the Motion

    Alveric Valentine (P.O.V.)Ever since Laila and Orin woke up, I have been monitoring their progress as well as their vitals. They still have not recollected their memories but that would take a while. I did not tell Dimitri about our progress with the bodies because I felt like that would conjure events that even I am unaware of. Edith has proven her usefulness but since the guardians had awoken, she has also proven just how useless she could become. I know she was looking forward to leaving this place with the guardians in tow but each day I sought to make the guardians better, I hoped their memories would come back so that I could warn them; so that they can fight this battle on their own successfully.However, I could not say for sure that they would recover any time soon. They were so confused about everything that we had to hide all things that indicated anything out of the ordinary like supernatural things that would freak them out. That meant ke

  • Destined to Reign   The Auction

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)As soon as I grabbed Dimitri’s to exit the limo, I heard gasps all around and the murmurs began. I knew Dimitri was notorious for riding solo so I could only imagine what people were thinking right now. There was no way I could pass as his sister because I had red curly hair while Dimitri’s hair is a dirty blonde dyed black.When I had successfully exited the limo without tripping on my dress or stumbling as I got to my feet, the cameras began to flash in my direction. Every other female that was currently at the event probably hated me right now for stealing the spotlight away from them. I was not used to this sort of attention, though, I knew I did get this attention when I am in public all dressed up. This sort of attention is different in the instance that it is blatantly in my face. It is like a form of catcalling except everyone wants to take a picture of you to show you off to the world.I chuckled as

    The man cleared his throat once again and then started.“The first item up for grabs is a beach house on Paradise Cove Bluffs. The house comes with five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a hot tub, a garage to fit three cars, an indoor gym, a pool, and a theatre room. The original asking price is fifteen million dollars, but I bet you, you can get it for cheap here. Do I hear any bids?”And it is then the auction started and proceeded to go on without a hitch. The houses, cars, and other items that were up for sale were all so beautiful. At the moment I wish I was rich enough to purchase some of them.I nudged Dimitri who sat silently the entire time just observing the room go wild over some of the things being auctioned.“Why are you not bidding? What is the point of attending an auction if you are not going to spend money?” I asked him. Rolling my eyes at him as he finished his third glass of champagne.He smirked at me as he plac

  • Destined to Reign   Auctioned

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)Since I left Dimitri sitting by the table sulking over matters that do not concern him, I have been with Alessandro. Unlike Dimitri, I did not feel out of place. Dimitri acted like a snob during the entire event, or rather the portion of it that we have witnessed thus far. In comparison, Alessandro was the total opposite. Not only was he wise about what he wanted to spend his money on and what he thought was worth a purchase, but he also spoke about ways to make money. He was not acting as though he was so rich, he did not need to work ever again, instead, we walked throughout the building talking about investments and the stock market. You would think this would bore me but no, it really helped me to gain an insight into Alessandro’s world where I saw right through the public image of just money, and I got to

    Isla Kalashnikov (P.O.V.)“Get up there, before I make you. You work for me, and you have to do as I say. You are nothing but an object to women. Do you think I do not see you dressing up for attention from men? You want the attention that badly that you always have your body on display. Look at what you are wearing. Your breasts are on full display. Now get up there and do not embarrass me.”I was stunned. I could feel myself on the brink of crying and I did not want to move. I was both scared and hurt. I found myself just looking at Dimitri in disbelief.I slowly got up from my seat and made my way to the stage. I stood in line with all of the other girls. I felt so out of place next to them. They were the typical trophy wives or trophy wife wannabes. They seemed really excited to be here. They were all giggling a lot and fixing their hair and makeup despite the fact that they were on stage in front of hundreds of people I simply s

    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

  • 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

    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
