Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 41
BELLAMY “You and Kenzie are great. There’s nothing we wouldn’t do for you. We have all thought of you as a brother since we met you and began working with you. We wouldn’t be anywhere if it hadn’t been for your involvement. Yes, I flirted with Kenzie, but I didn’t mean anything by it. Your mate is beautiful inside and out. We will stand with you both until the end,” Derek said. I gave them all an appreciative smile and nodded my head. I had not anticipated such sentimentality from Derek, but it made me proud of the young man he has become. He was only seventeen, but he had faced so much adversity growing up that it was hard for him to connect with people. His father was an abusive asshole who used him for his magic. Derek had the ability of suggestibility. It was not like Markov’s power. When he tapped into his magic, he could sway someone into doing something, but it was not compulsion. It was just a suggestion. Those with weak minds would fall easily into his traps, but those who
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 1
KENZIEWas it just fate that caused twins to be polar opposites?There was me, Kenzie, who was the responsible twin that kept to schedules and did not make life hard on others. Then there was Luca, who did not even know how to tell time and made my life all about keeping his ass in line.“C’mon, Luca,” I said, tossing a pillow at his head. “Uncle is coming back today, and he always brings cool shit. Get the hell out of bed.”I tore his covers away and immediately realized my mistake. I turned away and walked out of the room while slamming the door behind me.I hated when he slept without clothes on. There was no rhyme or reason for when he did it, so I never knew what to expect. Sometimes I thought he had grown up and stopped acting like a prepubescent pup, but that was too much to ask for.Twins were not all that common in the shifter community because a shifter’s pregnancy was more stressful on the mother’s body than a human pregnancy, so carrying twins could be dangerous. However,
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 2
BELLAMY I watched as Kenzie left from the room without even being able to look at me as if she was ashamed of what I witnessed. There was nothing at all for her to be ashamed of. My eyes turned back to Luca who looked after her with a worried expression. That alone scared me. “What’s in the vial?” I asked him, holding up the empty one. He took the vial and needle from me and disposed of them before washing his hands. “It’s not my place to say. Sorry, Bel. You know that I would if I could. It’s for Kenz to decide if she wants to tell you,” he said, sitting on the floor next to me. I always respected that about Luca. He never told other people’s business. However, I wished this one time that he would choose otherwise. Especially with it being about her. “Is she okay though?” I asked. I would be lying if I said I did not care. Kenzie had always been on my mind. The past year was filled with constant thoughts, dreams, daydreams, and so on all about her. Those thoughts were glorious
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 3
KENZIEI was nervous about going out of the castle, but it was not because of the action but because of who I was going with. Only Bellamy could make me nervous. The happiness on his face when I agreed made me smile.“Would you like to portal or just stroll? It’s about a twenty-minute walk,” he said, looking to me for my preference.I was not used to people asking my opinion on things, so it was a nice change of pace.“I’d rather stroll and talk if you’d like,” I said, praying that I could keep my blushing at bay. It was great being close to him like this because I missed him like hell when he was gone.“I’d like nothing more. What would you like to talk about? Ladies choice.”I stopped and planted my hands on my hips. He just raised a single eyebrow in response. I could see the amusement etched in his eyes.“That’s not how this works. I offered an option. You chose the option, therefore it’s your responsibility to carry out said option. C’mon, Bel,” I huffed.He crossed his arms over
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 4
KENZIE After a long shower, I was able to push away the dining room scene. I just sighed and shrugged it off. It was not worth my heartache anymore. Getting out of the castle felt absolutely thrilling. Sure, I had been out with Papa, but that did not compare to going outside the gates with Bellamy. I knew that guards followed us, but everything was perfect. It was the first time that I felt normal in a long time, so I had a lot to thank Bellamy for. We spent time at the café and grabbed some food before we headed home. Females approached him and flirted quite a few times, but he simply kept his focus on me. It made me feel special if I was being honest. I realized I truly enjoyed spending time with him. He was intelligent and hilarious. He held this confidence that did not come across as egotistic but as sexy. I liked him for so many years that being able to actually spend quality time with him was damn near a dream come true. Our conversation went very smoothly and did not feel a
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 5
BELLAMY I watched Kenzie leave, and my heart broke with how much pain was in her voice. I never should have left. If I had known that she dealt with this on her own … “Is that how she really feels?” Luca asked while she retreated. What was I supposed to tell him? Either way, he was going to get hurt. However, his hurt did not bother me as much as hers did. He needed to know the truth because Kenzie was right. I was beginning to understand why she had always been a topic not often discussed with my parents. Why would her family treat her so poorly especially given Aunty’s upbringing? It did not make any sense. “Yeah, she does. Try seeing it from her perspective. Everyone is allowed to go about and do whatever they want to do. Whatever their whim is. Has she even visited one of the packs?” His shoulders slumped, giving away the truth. I knew that Luca loved his sister more than anything. I could not fault him for the upbringing their parents chose for them. That did not mean that I
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 6
BELLAMY Instead of being pissed, she just looked hurt. That made me even angrier at them than I had been already. I knew what the Delzet did. Dad said that her parents told him that it helped to focus. It proved that they lied to him, and that was a low blow because Dad was their family. Then again, so was Kenzie, and I saw what they did to her. Dad would not have been okay with taking her magic away. He had always helped me embrace mine and instilled in me that it was part of who I was and that I should never be wary of it. “What haven’t they lied to me about?” she asked softly. She held up her other hand, and I matched her movements. Her magic felt like a gentle massage as it danced along mine. I closed my hands around hers. Her eyes flashed between both the colors of our magic. “That’s new,” I said, taking my hands back before clasping them to hers again. The colors flashed again. “Never seen two sets of magic mix together like that.” “Why are you willing to help me?” she ask
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 7
BELLAMY “Thank you,” she said, kissing my jaw. Just like that, the tension in my body released. I still could not believe that she was here with me. I had not expected this turn of events when I finally decided to head back there. I led her further into the bedroom and smiled as she looked around excitedly. I put a lot of effort into making my apartment my retreat. I spent a lot of time traveling around, so I wanted to ensure that I enjoyed it when I came back here. Thank fuck for portals, or I would never see home. “Why does your magic calm me?” she asked curiously. I placed her bag on the bed before turning around to her. It was definitely a great question, yet even this was out of my wheelhouse a bit. That was certainly saying something because I thrived in increasing the size of my wheelhouse. “I’m not entirely sure. I’ve never had that reaction before. The bathroom is right though there,” I pointed to the door across the room. “I’m going to get a little bit of work done whil

BELLAMY “If our guys are going to be a part of this, it’s not fair to keep everything from them. They need to know what’s at stake with Markov and us,” I told my gorgeous mate. We had just finished a shower. Well, and shower sex. Sex with Kenzie was better than I ever could have imagined that it would be. The fact that she truly wanted to try things with me made me love her even more. I could not wait to return the favor and let her try out one of her fantasies on me. It would be very pleasurable for both of us if I knew her at all. “I agree. They need to know about the kidnappings, the Council, and our marks. How do we go about this? You know my fathers will want to ensure they’re up to the challenge and scare the shit out of them. Plus, they need to also know about the prophecy.” Hmm. They could be like our very own Squad One. I liked that idea. It served Blood Moon very well since the pack had over 155,000 pack members. It was divided up into eight sectors which were essentially

KENZIE“Mom, it’s good to see you. What’s up?” I asked, answering the door to her.Mom smiled and gave me a hug. She asked if we could talk for a moment. Bellamy excused himself with a kiss to both our cheeks. I loved the fact that those two had always been so close.I doubted that I would ever get used to him being mine. No matter how many times he kissed me, I still wondered if it was a dream. Understanding that we were mates made me understand why I always thought about him growing up and especially once he was gone. We would never be able to make up for the time we lost together, but we had now and forever to make the most of.“Nae told me about this party you will be attending and will be right here. I asked Luca to send us Beatrice as well. We really like her, by the way.”The other two showed up, and I was not entirely certain what they were going to say. Mom said that she and Aunt Nae knew about the party. Would she try and talk me out of it?“So, you know about the party?” I
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 38
KENZIE “You knew,” Luca accused, pointing at me with an arm around Beatrice. I had never seen my brother happier than he was the moment that the mate-bond clicked into place. On the outside, Luca showed that he did not care much about finding his mate, but it was an entirely different truth on the inside. My brother longed for his completion, but I knew that he was worried about leaving me alone. We understood things about each other that others never would because of the bond that we shared. “Who do you think told Nonno we had to throw an impromptu coronation? I sure as hell didn’t need it. Marnie clued Bel and I in when we went to jailbreak her. She said it was the only way to save you two. No idea why knowing the mate thing matters, but we like her too much to let her die,” I told him. He stared me down for a whole thirty seconds before he nodded and pulled her closer. “Thank you. I like her too much for her to die as well.” She stared at him like he was crazy. Ah, yeah. Well,

LUCABeatrice was the most gorgeous woman I had ever seen before. I stupidly thought that I beheld true beauty before, but it was a cheap imitation.“Are you ready for this, Lu?” she asked, looking at me with those doe eyes that always pulled me in.“As long as you’re on up there with me. You’ll stand with my parents,” I told her, placing a chaste kiss on her lips.“I’ll be there to cheer you on.” She gave me one last hug and went to stand in line.Nonno and Leonidas were first. Then my parents. Kenzie and I were behind them, and the rest of our people were behind us.I was fairly nervous which was hilarious because I did not really do nervous. I was always a more go-with-the-flow type. It drove Kenzie absolutely insane which was one reason why it became part of me. I absolutely loved my wombmate, but I was sworn to a lifetime of tormenting her.“Welcome! Thank you for joining us this morning for this impromptu coronation of our Alpha heirs. Alpha Prince heir Luca Venscothi and Alpha
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 36
LUCAThis was a very impromptu coronation, so I knew it would not be a huge fanfare which was perfect for me. Many people would want the attention of the adoring crowd, but that was not how we were raised.Our parents and Nonno ensured that we understood it was a gift to be in the position that we were. It was not our right but our privilege. Our duty was to always be the leaders that our people needed.It took a while for our people to heal after what Selene had done. It was still hard to hear about what she did and the hand she had in Mom’s torment, but like the badass that Mom was, Selene got her ass handed to her on a silver fucking platter.My fathers clasped a hand on both shoulders and smiled at me. They were the best fathers that I could have ever been blessed with. They always put Mom, Kenzie, and me first. They hurt Kenzie, but she moved past it, and so did I. They fucked up, but they owned up to that and were trying to right their wrong with her.“Son, we’re incredibly prou

LUCAI woke up before Beatrice did, and I was happy for a little time to observe her beauty. She was the most gorgeous woman I had ever seen before. Yes, there was a little age gap, but we both looked to be about the same age anyways. The numbers truly did not matter to me. Hopefully they meant the same to her.I felt like my heart had stopped when she showed up to the auction. I could not take my eyes off her and even called my fathers for advice. I knew I liked her, but I was not certain if it was reciprocated because she was sexy, intelligent, and was a powerful witch. What was I? Yeah, exactly. None of those things. Well, I was smart but not intelligent like Kenz. They told me to ask her to tell me about herself, so I did.She told me about her family. Her brother had died, but she did not want to elaborate, so I did not push. Then she told me about her daughter who mated with a guard here in Aedrul. That was cool. I offered to take her on a tour while she was there, which she eag

BELLAMYKenzie led me back to her suite. I knew that she had something on her mind, but it was something that she was trying to work out as well.Her fingers kept going to my mark before biting her lip. I could use Marnie’s power to dive into her mind, but I would not break that level of trust with her. It was something that I would never do.She pulled me into the bathroom and hopped up on the counter. I slid in between her thighs.“What’s on your mind, gorgeous?”I pulled her hair back over her shoulder and kissed it before kissing my mark. I smiled as a shiver overcame her.“Why do our marks look different than other people’s marks? I thought it was just the magic, but I’ve seen marks between shifters and witches, shifters and shifters, and so on and so forth. Why are ours unique?”My brows furrowed as I worked through what she said. It was something that I had not really paid attention to either. Take Aunty’s and Uncle’s marks for example. They were matching silver rings. It was t
Enchanted Dezantre Chapter 33
BELLAMY Kenzie was truly my equal in all things. She just kept surprising me left and right about her desires and her needs. I would always give her anything she asked for. For her to say that my darker side is alluring would have ended in another round entirely. How did nobody make the connection between the orphans and Aedrul like Kenzie did in no time? I had no doubt that she was right about it all. If we could prove that this was a habit and regular occurrence, then it would be one further nail in Markov’s coffin. I was trying to figure out why he would take kingdom children but soon realized a possibility. If he could separate them from their homes and families, he could mold them into whatever he wanted them to be. He could release an army into Aedrul that nobody would suspect with his compulsion. I shared my thoughts with Kenzie, and she agreed while punching a wall. Wrong time to be aroused, but that was hot. I loved the fire that was inside of my mate. “Well, we can figur
