ANNALISE... My body is aching, but it is a good ache. I want to tell him that I will be missing it this morning, but when I look at him, I just know that he wouldn’t accept me saying no. I sigh and say, “Okay, give me a minute.” I step back and close the door, I then walk over and into the closet. I walk past the dresses that I was going to wear today to one of the drawers. I open the top one and pull out a sports bra and pull it on. I then pull out a pair of panties and slip them on, still amazed at how comfortable they are. I then open the next drawer and find a pile of black training tops. I grab one and pull it on over my head. I then close that one and open the next. I am surprised and shocked when I find jeans in all different colours, not realising that Nicolas or Fredrick would allow me to wear jeans. Because when one is a sex slave, a skirt or dress is required as you never know how or when your services will be required and wearing jeans or any type of pants doesn’t all
ANNALISE... Douglas moves slowly from in front of me as Vlad approaches and then crouches down, taking Douglas's spot in front of me. He then says in that same soft relaxing tone, “What do you mean, special ones? What are you talking about? Luna.” Douglas clears his throat and answers Vlad's second question first. “Alpha Randall marked Annalise as a sex slave. Beta Angus of the Nightstar Stalkers pack somehow found out and then arranged for her to be kidnapped. We only found and rescued her from his possession a month ago.” I don’t miss the flicker in Vlad's eyes as he seems to fight his wolf and his anger that is mostly contained, but coming off of him in very small waves. He then takes a deep breath and repeats his first question as he looks at me. I take a deep breath, too, keeping my eyes down as I whisper, “While I was with Beta Angus, he used me to help him get what he wanted. He would specify that I was to be the one
THIRD PERSON… "Who did that?" The guard bows and replies, "His Highness! He came down earlier. He was in a right mood. When he left, I had to go in and just double-check that he didn't kill him. The doctor has just left. He gave him a shot to help him heal as the Succubus hybrid Alpha Nicolas sent in practically drained him of all of his life energy." Vlad nods his head and walks out of the dungeon, knowing that the pain he had wanted to inflict on Alpha Randall could not be done, as giving him the beating Vlad felt he deserved would have killed him and everyone was informed of Alpha Nicolas’s promise to the Luna Candace that after his punishment Alpha Randall would be returned to her and the Lupin Nightstalkers pack. Still feeling the anger running through him and Ernest pacing extremely restlessly in his head, Vlad needed to find a release. Now most males would go and find a willing female or male or even one of each, depend
ANNALISE…After walking around inside the castle for most of the day, I duck into one of the offices and pick up a pen and a small pad of writing paper. I then ventured outside, as after the incident with Douglas and Vlad, I didn't really want to be around anyone. I walked around until I found a beautiful little flower garden. While sitting in amongst the beauty, knowing where I am about to go in my mind is dark, I pull out a pen and paper. I write down all the Alphas and Betas that Angus had put me in the sleeper room with, starting with Alpha Delmor De Boule and Beta Sid Wolffang. I shivered a few times as I wrote the names down and quick flashes of what they did to me go through my mind. I have to look up at the surrounding beauty a few times to remind me that I am no longer there, that they are no longer there.I know Douglas told me to take my time, but I don't want to dwell and remember what each Alpha and Beta did to me in that small sleeping room.
ANNALISE…Fredrick looks down. It’s my turn to slide my hand onto his cheek and apply a little pressure, making him look at me again as I say,“What is it? Is it that I was a sex slave? That I wasn't a virgin and that I am already mated to Nicolas?”“No, no. It's not that. It was nothing to do with you. You are everything I have ever wanted. When you woke after the full moon, you told me a little about when you got together with Randall. However, this morning, you were talking in your sleep and you told me everything about your first time with Randall and when I didn’t let you sleep after I marked you... Well, I felt like I was no better than him, forcing you to continue when it should have been your choice.”“Fredrick, you didn’t force me to do anything. I loved every minute of what we did and the only time I was a little disappointed was when I woke…”“Why?
NICOLAS… Indulging in Annalise’s body until the early hours was the best thing ever. I gently slide my fingers over the skin of her shoulder, loving the sparks that spread up my fingers and my arm, joining the ones settling in my chest. I want to indulge a little more, be inside her once more, and have her screaming my name one more time, but I know that once I start, I won’t be able to stop and I really need to head back to the pack. I lay there for a while longer until I get a tug on my link for Randolf, “Alpha, I know you want to stay here with Luna Annalise, but we really must be going.” “Okay, Randolf. I’m on my way.” I tighten my arms around Annalise and smile when she lets out her cute, little morning moan. She smiles as she opens her eyes and looks at me. I pull her up a little more so that I can capture her lips with mine, giving he
NICOLAS… I rub my hands up and down my face. I already miss Annalise. I open the door and get out, I stretch and then walk into the packhouse. As usual, everything is still running perfectly. I walk into the kitchen and grab myself and grabbed Randolf a plate, filling it up with what was available. I smile a little at the looks some of the Omegas and other staff were giving me, but one thing that Annalise has reminded me over the past week is that just because I am the Alpha, it doesn’t mean that I deserve to be waited on. Katreena brought me up better than that and I had just fallen into the role when Father had given me it as that was what the old Alpha of the pack had in place and then after losing Hana, I just didn’t care anymore. I walk out into the dining hall and smile as I see Randolf sitting in his chair. He chuckles as I approach with the plates in my hands. As I place his plate in front of him, set mine down on the table and then sit down. He smirks as he says, “Okay,
NICOLAS… I look around at those around me as I am standing in the middle of the pack centre once more with my pack surrounding me. I take a deep breath and say, “Okay. I am going to make this simple. It is going to be a quick yes or no question. Does everyone understand?” “YES, ALPHA!” “Okay. Those that are in favour of relocating to the Royal Nightmoon Infernal pack territory raise your hands now.” I smile as their hands rise like a wave through the centre of the pack. I look around and do a quick count, realising that all but a few have voted. I then say, “Thank you. I think it is unanimous the Romulus Guardian pack will be relocating to the Royal Nightmoon Infernal pack territory. Now those that don’t want to relocate, that is your choice. However, you can still relocate with the pack, or you can relocate to another pack or become rogue.&
ANNALISE - FLASHBACK CONT’… Amity gives me a sly smile as she sees what I did. She then turns her attention back to the coming of my pups and says, “Now Luna… Annalise, I need you to take a deep breath and push with the next contraction.” I do as she says and follow her instructions as she gives them. After what seemed like forever, I slump back against Nicolas after my last push and our first daughter slips from inside me. Amity pulls out a small set of scissors and cuts the cord and then picks her up as she says, “Congratulations. You have a daughter, an Alpha female.” She passes her to me as I relax into Nicolas. When she opens her eyes, I smile and I don't know how I knew she was his as look back over my shoulder and say, “Our beautiful Danielle.” Nicolas smiles and closes the small gap and places a soft, short kiss on my lips. When he pulls back, Dominic approaches very slowly and says, “If I may, Luna?” I look at him, confused, until another wave of pain shoots through m
5 years later…ANNALISE…The years have been good. Anyone would think that being the Luna of two packs and the Queen of a kingdom would be hard and tiring, however; for me, it has been busy but fun and rewarding.Like now, I have a little quiet time, so I am sitting on the swing out in the backyard of the castle, sliding my hand over my swollen belly while watching Fredrick and Nicolas going through some of the playful training moves they came up with. It was the only way they could convince our daughters to pay attention to each of the lessons they tried to teach them.As I watch them, I remember the night that they were born…The night of the Full Blood Moon Eclipse…**FLASHBACK**I had been feeling a little off when I had squirmed and crawled out of bed early this morning. I just couldn’t stay sandwiched between my two mates any longer. I feel a small ache in my lower back and give it a slow rub as I walk into the bathroom and set the shower going. The warm water of the shower and
ANNALISE... I smile as he then pulls me into a tight hug, and I hear two low growls from the males that step back up beside me. As Fredrick pulls me in tight to his side, he says, “Back off Father… Annalise, as you have probably guessed or known, that is our father, Chase.” I giggle again as Chase bows to me and grabs my hand, placing a kiss on the back, earning him another growl. He straightens and chuckles as he returns to his seat. Fredrick then says, “And this lovely female is my mother, Nicolas’s stepmother. Katreena.” I look over, and my eyes go wide as she says, “It’s nice to finally meet you, Annalise. You ran off so quickly the day I visited Nicolas, he didn’t get a chance to introduce you…” I lower my head and whisper, “I…I… I was nothing but a slave then…” Tears fill my eyes as I remember that day and how I had thought that she was his girlfriend or lover or mistress with how they had walked down the hall so close to each other and then had eaten privately. It wasn
ANNALISE… She smiles as she turns the screen to face the three of us so that we can see the two images. Tears sting my eyes as I then turn and look at my mates. A small smile tugs at my lips, seeing the shock on their faces. My attention is brought back to Amity when she asks, “Would you all like to know what you are having?” I smile and say before she can, “Daughters. We are having daughters.” Amity looks at me with shock as she says, “That’s right. Annalise, how did you know?” “Amity, I am not stupid. I did a research paper at school on my family history and found that there were only females with the occasional male born to the 2nd or 3rd daughter of each new generation. So now that I know that I am a descendant daughter of the Moon Goddess, I realised a few weeks ago that any pups I had would be daughters... Would be females.” I turn my head and look over at Fredrick and Nicolas, as I don’t know if they have thought about this. Tears sting my eyes as I whisper, “You do rea
ANNALISE… I couldn’t believe that they had included a nursery/reading room. With the teddy still in my hand, I walk back over to them and wrap my arms around both of them as I try not to cry. Fredrick places a kiss on my shoulder and whispers, “Come, we haven’t finished yet.” I pull back and they both step back. Fredrick slides his hand into mine and leads me out of the nursery and over to another door. He stands in front of it as he says. “Now we know that there are going to be times when you have had enough of our overbearing presence, so we made this chamber up for you. It is for you and you alone. If you decide to invite one of us in well, then that is your choice. Otherwise, it is off-limits to me and Nicolas.” Fredrick then steps to the side and opens the door, allowing me to walk in. True to his words, they both stand outside the door as I move and look around the chamber. Nicolas says once again from the door,
ANNALISE…When he pulls his head back, we are above the surface again. I look into his eyes and he is laughing; I hit him on the chest as I giggle.“You bastard, you scared the shit out of me…”He continues to laugh as he says,“Sorry sweetheart.”I wrap my arms back around his neck and place a kiss on his lips. When I pull back this time, I look around and say,“Where is Fredrick?”I let out a surprised scream as two hands grab my waist and pull me back out of Nicolas’s arms. The hands turn me as his voice rasps into my ear.“I’m right here, sweetheart.”I giggle and hit his chest, as I did with Nicolas, before placing a kiss on his lips. Sparks flood my body as he growls low and wraps his arms tighter around me and deepens the kiss. When he pulls back, he leans his forehead to mine and whispers,“I love you.”I smile and whisper, “I love you, too.”I then look over my shoulder before turning in Fredrick’s arms just a little, allowing me to see both my mates as I say,“I love both of
NICOLAS… I feel a shiver run through Annalise as she tightens her arms around my neck. I tightened my arms in response, still with my attention on Fredrick, knowing that this was bad. I whisper, “How?” “The dungeon guards alerted us to trouble. When I got to the doors of the dungeon, I could hear fighting and growling coming from the cells. I all ran down, only to stop dead at the cell. The fighting had stopped, and you were just standing, but we couldn’t believe what we were seeing. Douglas, Arnald, and Vlad joined me just after. We were brought out of our shock when Annalise screamed. I had Vlad take her to her room and told him to keep her there. We then tried to enter the cell, but as we did, you turned on us. Raoul had shifted, and his eyes were glowing pure gold with a significant swirl of silver running through them. I tried the link, but it was blocked, and every time we made even just the smallest of movements, Raoul would growl low
ANNALISE… I place my hand on his cheek, and it isn’t long before his eyes snap open, and I am staring at the gold, silver, and red swirl of Raoul’s eyes. His chest vibrates with the primal growl he lets out before wrapping his arms around me, one going to the back of my head, the other around my waist. He pulls me into a hard, dominant kiss. I let out a surprised squeak into his kiss as he flipped us in the bed. When he pulls back, we are both breathing heavily. He leans his forehead to mine and whispers, “I would never intentionally hurt you…” I smile and bring my hand back to his cheek as I say, “I know. I love you, and I understand now what you were trying to do. I came back for you.” I close my eyes and allow Misty to come forward and share control. Raoul lets out another low growl when I open my eyes, and I know that they are mixed with Misty's violet colour. I feel Misty extend our canines, and I smile as I watch as R
ANNALISE… I don’t know what made me do it, but he had saved me, so I felt the need to save him from whatever they were doing to him. Almost as soon as I removed the IV, he began to stir. I smiled as I reached over and placed my hand on his cheek. I then jumped when his eyes snapped open and locked on mine. He moves quickly, getting off the bed, wrapping his arms around me, and walking me backward until my back hits the wall behind me. I whimper a little at the impact, but I can’t take my eyes off the golden glow with the silver and slight red swirl. He slides his hand into my hair and grabs it, pulling my head back just that little further before he smashes his lips to mine in a hard, dominant kiss. Even with the slight twinge of pain, I melt into him. He soon breaks his kiss and trails his lips down my neck, making me shiver. I close my eyes and let out a low moan as his fire spreads through me. His
