Lyra
I am not quite sure when it happened, I mean the exact minute but i dont hate myself. I don't like myself either, I am just me. Spoiled youngest daughter of Russian vampire king Kirill, or as I call him Papa. I am just over a hundred years old, well 106 actually, and I just hate what I was born into.
I have no want for power, no need to be better, my sister Evanka and brother Vladimir have that sorted. My brother will eventually take over from our father and my sister is already tied off to some guy from the Spanish noble family . Nope, not me. I would rather be banished than sold off for the sake of a treaty.
In my fathers eyes I should act properly like a noble princess. I mean what kind of noble feeds off a fucking human. I mean we are the number one predator, we are faster, we are stronger and well we are made to take what we want first on the food chain.
That was a joke, as soon as the world became aware of the supernaturals we became like second class citizens, registered and tracked like fucking crimanals. I was sent to this god forsaken country to have time out and learn how to control my temper and sexual appetite.
That bit made me laugh, i mean i like to fuck always have its built into us. To be brutally honest I haven't been satisfied in that department for quite some time. I hate this fucking country, I mean land of the free, that's a joke in itself.
I was shipped to my mothers old nest, that's what we call where we live. It is much like a pack that the wolves live in. My father is a powerful man in Russia with a lot of businesses and if I was a male I would be allowed to run them but as a female he wants me to be settled down as a doting wife.
Well lets just say that's how this situation ended up happening. Deciding to rebel against my own family and set up in competition was not my best idea but it was fun to watch them try to figure out who I was. Until I let my guard down one night while fucking someone i shouldn’t have and they snooped when my back was turned.
Well it was fun while it lasted, proberly not worth the consequences of being sent to this place. My father sent a guard with me, Nickoli, at the moment I am getting ready to go out to play on my new motorbike.
I have been getting lectured for the past half hour on how I should not be driving a motorbike, it’s not proper, and how my father had purchased a range rover for me. Give me strength this fucker is worse than my father, that will be the last time i fuck him.
As I continue to get ready I tune him out as I put on my signature bright red lipstick in the mirror, I step back to take myself in. I am 5 '9 with a slim frame, small waist and nice hips. My porcelain white skin and short black hair in a sharp bob and red eyes makes me stand out.
Black skin tight jeans, black vest top, long black boots and black leather jacket. I am ready. Turning to leave I pick up my helmet, I almost make it to the door before Tessa my mothers elder sister catches me. Fuck, she is worse than either my parents, she lost her shit yesterday when my bike was delivered.
I do get a slight satisfaction out of pissing her off, stuck up bitch.
“Lyra, where do you think you are going? ”She demands from the lounge doorway. Rolling my eyes I spin on my heels.
``Aunt Tessa, you look lovely today” I try, it always worked with my mother.
“Cut the shit Lyra, I am not my sister. That crap wont work , where are you going? ”Fuck this bitch is hard to deal with.
“I am going out on my new motorbike, I'll be back before dawn." She narrows her eyes at me, but before she can say any more I shoot out the door. I know I'll pay for that later, so I better make it worth it; I think to myself.
As I take in the brand new shiny fireblade motorbike a thrill runs through me and I can't wait to feel the freedom of riding a bike like this. Some of the maids had mentioned a bar not too far from here that supernaturals own and drink in.
They did say mostly wolves but right now I just need to let my hair down so to speak. Feeling my bike roar to life has my excitement kicking in, never know i might find someone half decent to fuck . Never have I ever done a wolf, might be fun even though we are natural enemies.
Spotting the bar was easy, it was the only thing on a straight road for around thirty miles. There was a huge amount of motorbikes outside, mostly choppers and Harleys but hey bikes are bikes right. Wrong Lyra, the minute I walk into the bar I feel the shift in the air.
Wolves, only wolves are in this bar. Well this should be fun i think as i walk towards the bar, shit these wolves are huge and sexy as hell. I can feel all the eyes on me even the women are checking out the stranger. I have never been into females but even i have to admit these shifter females are hot as hell.
The bartender was a huge guy with a sharp eye and covered in tattoos, with a scar running through his left eyebrow.
“How can I help you little lady?” He says in his gruff voice.
“Vodka, please” I almost laughed at the look of surprise on his face, proberly my accent.
“Coming up” He says as he places the glass down in front of me and free pours the clear liquid.
“Long way from home” He says more as a question than a statement. He seems friendly and if i wanted a place to escape to this place can't hurt.
“Staying with family” I say with the friendliest smile I could muster.
“We don't normally get your type in here, but welcome I am Jerad” He says as he offers me his huge tattooed hand. I take his hand and grin at him.
“By my type you mean Russians?” He barks out a laugh that has me properly smiling.
“Lyra, I am Lyra. Pleased to meet you Jerad." He smiles at me showing his white straight teeth, his dark hazel eyes sparkle with mischief as he takes his hand back.
As I make myself comfortable on the bar stool I take in the bar and people that are in it. The place isn't fancy and it's a far cry from the places back home but I do like it. It’s full of mostly men, a few females not many.
There is a pool table in the corner, two guys are deep in concentration focusing on their game. The two females with them seem to be keeping an eye on me. As I go to take a sip of my drink I raise it to them with a smile. I guess they aren't quite as friendly as Jerad.
Turning back to Jerad I notice him in conversation with a guy at the other end of the bar, I can tell they are talking about me. No shock there then, It’s in peoples nature to be curious. Once the guy at the end of the bar stands up i can get a better look at him, he’s a wolf i can tell he is ranked by his aura.
Not an alpha, possibly Beta or gamma. He’s huge messy blonde hair and blue eyes, he’s easy on the eye but not my type. Jerad put a drink in front of me, I gave him a questioning look. He just points to the guy who is now making his way towards me.
I turn in my bar stool to face the now seriously close stranger, who is looking at me as if he could eat me. Pardon the pun, I know vampire’s eat humans ha ha. He just stares down at me with lust filled eyes .
“Can I help you?” I ask with a smirk on my face, before I take a drink. He squints his eyes at me for a minute as if sizing me up.
“Sure you can help me out Princess” he says in a deep voice that on any other day would have made my panties drop but the sound of being called a princess pissed me off.
“I ain't no princess” Is all i say as i turn back to the bar and my drink. I can feel the heat coming off him as he steps closer
“I seem to have upset you. My apologies, I am Atlas” Putting my drink down i turn back to him, look him up and down in the same manner he did me .
“Well hello Atlas, I am Lyra” I say lingering on the R with my thick Russian accent .
Maddox I have felt completely unsettled lately, my wolf Chaos keeps telling me he can feel something is coming. I have spent the best part of a week trying to avoid my father as he keeps trying to push me to take Una, the daughter of an Alpha from another pack in the area as my chosen mate. Una is nice but far too timid for my liking and boring. She is pretty i guess but if i am honest she really isn't for me. I need a female who will give it back to me, not a yes female like her. I am trying to get through the paperwork for a construction deal I have been overseeing for the family company. My parents keep pushing for me to take the Alpha position but I am not in a hurry. The thought of being stuck behind a desk instead of being out on the Harley is enough for me to run and keep running. I am now twenty four, Everyone keeps telling me to find my mate. I mean is it that bad i don't want my mate i like my life as it is. I definitely do not want Una. Chaos refuses to mark anyone
Lyra Well ante this interesting i thought as the incredibly strong aura hit me before he even entered the bar. I mean if I thought Atlas was sexy I was not prepared for the arrogant Alpha Maddox that just walked towards me with a frown on his seriously sexy pouty face. I feel Atlas’s energy shift so I know straight away this is his Alpha. The 6’4 muscle bound, tattooed scowling Alpha was sexy on a whole other level. His hair is shaved on the sides with brushed back black hair on top, sapphire eyes that are hooded in this black thick lashes, strong jaw with just the right amount of stubble to leave a shadow has my panties wet. Well I'll be damned, why the hell have you never considered a wolf before Lyra, i think. His sheer contempt for me has me smiling, do not mess with me boy. I knew I affected him from the moment he walked in, even if that at times pissed him off. I notch that as a point to me. The minute he took my hand i felt it snap, my fucking tie, this sexy as Alpha wa
Maddox I have been awake almost all night and the one time i managed to fall asleep her fucking face appears. I would say it was a dream but it felt so real, she was sitting with her legs spread while I feasted on her perfect pussy. “Fuck” I groan as i throw the covers back and get out of bed, i think a cold shower is needed. Forty minutes later I arrived at my office to find a rather smug looking Atlas with two steaming hot coffees, I knew there was a reason I had him as beta. “Who pissed in your porridge?” he asks with a chuckle as I snatch the mug from him. Shooting him a do not start look he holds his hands up in surrender. We spend most of the morning going over construction business. By afternoon we had been joined by my Gamma Dollar. We had quite a few rogue attacks lately and we needed to deal with it . “So boss, I hear we had ourselves a little russian spit fire in the bar last night?” Dollar says while wiggling his eyebrows at me. I turn to look at Atlas who has a sh
Lyra The rage that is running through me at the moment is almost palatable, the red haze at the corner of my eye has me taking a deep breath. Nickoli is standing next to the car my father had purchased in the hope of me using it. I don't pay him any attention as I put my helmet on, throw my leg over my bike and take off. Arriving back at my aunt's nest I get off my bike and wait for Nickoli to catch up. The moment I see the car on the drive I slip the dagger I keep on me at all times out. It was a gift from my father for my one hundredth birthday. Watch him get out of the car he looks nervous and so he should. “Nickoli, i am sure you know i am furious you spoiled my fun tonight” He shifts from foot to foot. “Princess, I..” He gets no more words out as I stab him in the neck and watch him fall to his knees, he won't die but he will bleed out and suffer until I decide differently. “Lyra!” The screeching irritating voice of my aunt. Rolling my eyes I turn to a red in the face
Maddox As I sit with these two clowns I keep playing the interaction between Lyra and this mystery guy. The way he called her Princess it was definitely not a pet name, who the hell is Lyra? My Beta and Gamma decide to go to play pool so I decided to ask Jared. “Jared.” I called the bartender “Yes Alpha” “Tell me what do you actually know about Lyra?” At first he looks confused but then. “Well Alpha all i know is what she has told me. She is staying at her Aunt's nest, Tessa i am sure she said. She has an overbearing father and brother but she never elaborated on anything else Alpha” Tessa, Tessa why is that name sound familiar, I must enquire or put Atlas on to it. She most certainly has pricked my interest even if it is just to avoid her. My wolf is laughing at me, damn animal. —---------- Another sleepless night, tossing and turning even after a run in my fur allowing my annoying mutt to take control ended up on the border to the nest Lyra is staying in. Chaos wanted to see
Lyra I have felt uneasy since the call with my Papa, Vladimir has been trying to call me but will i fuck take that call. My pompous ass of a brother can fuck off with his ego and self importance. My Aunt has been giving me nothing but shit for the past two days, leaving Nickoli on the drive to bleed out wasn't my best move but who cares. Her husband is nothing but a wet wipe if you ask me, she speaks to him with nothing but disrespect and he still looks at her like she is the best thing ever. Makes me laugh when I think how quiet and timid my mother is compared to Tessa. I Have felt a pull to the moody Alpha and have deliberately kept away from the bar. I have felt his wolf near, I spotted him two nights in a row at the edge of our land. What a magnificent animal so large, I was itching to run my hand through his black silky looking fur. Deciding to head into town for a drink and avoiding the bar I just hop on my bike and fire it up, Nickoli gives me a look from the door but
Maddox I watch her walk out the wine bar and my wolf is furious, wanting to rip Una to shreds for daring to stake a claim on us. “Maddox, can we eat now she has left?” That disgust in her tone is not lost on me. Spinning around I glare at the pathetic female sitting looking at me and for the first time I see what Atlas sees in her. Her fake innocence looking with her big eyes and slightly pouting lips, how she bats her lashes too many times. Looking at her I wonder how I never noticed before. “No, I have things to do” I say and turn to leave when she speaks again. “Maddox you're leaving because of that vampire? My father will not be happy” Closing my eyes i take a deep breath so as not to completely flip out. “Be careful how you speak about her. Is that a threat Una?” I ask as I lean over her. Feeling slightly better when I see her start to shake and fear enters her scent. “Do not push me Una, this whatever this is in your head you think is between us is most definitely no
LyraWatching this huge Alpha stutter and blush as he tries to show me how to play pool . Bending and rubbing my ass against his bulge in his tightly fitting jeans , knowing I have this effect on my tie makes me hungry for him . As he leans over to show me how to position my hand on the table , I get a hint of his blood as his jugular vein is a mere inches away . He smells delicious , the thought of sinking my teeth into his neck as he fucks me senseless is driving me to take in a deep inhale , without even covering it up . Maddox freezes for a second , the low growl in his chest tells me his wolf wants me , my arousal affects him . Turning my head slightly so i can look him in the eye at this close proximity , has his heart rate spiking and i can't help but smirk when his gaze drops to my lips , to make it worse for him i lick my lips . The door to the bar slams open and it is as if someone had poured ice water over my Alpha; he practically jumps back as though touching me burns h
LyraStepping off the jet in Russia felt bittersweet, good to be back in the homeland but it no longer felt like home. Aleksei’s first trip to Russia and I know how excited the elders are to meet the future king. Something I have made clear can and will only be happening if my son wishes to take the title. Carlos steps off behind me, proudly holding Aleksei. Two days ago at our ceremony Maddox and I had announced that Carlos was appointed our sons personal guard. *Flashback*I smile at my Alpha as he takes the podium, we had a surprise announcement for the pack. “I know we all want to get on with the celebration, but I have a very important thing to do as one of our pack” Everyone goes quiet with just the slight murmur of those trying to guess what is going on. “My Luna and I have been going over this since our pup was born and we are excited to announce that we have appointed a personal guard for the future heir of the Red Mountain Pack” Maddox looks over at me and holds his hand
LyraI stand in front of the full length mirror just staring at myself, my mind plays over the last year and the time with Maddox. From the fact we both were determined not to accept each other to being completely obsessed with each other to having our son. Our son, he is perfect from his chubby little cheeks to his big red eyes.Willow took both Aleksei and Kameal out for a walk while I got ready. Today is my Luna ceremony and I can't wait to officially be the Luna. I know it’s just formalities as I already do everything a Luna should. If you asked me a year ago if I would be leading my people I would have laughed. I have never wanted to rule, not to mention lead a pack of wolves but here we are and I would be lying if I said this isn’t where I belong. These people have shown me more love and acceptance than even my own parents. Willow treats us all the same; she has become the mother we never realised we needed. She would have made an amazing Luna, even though she says she is happy
MaddoxLyra has been running on low for a couple of weeks now, she won’t allow anyone except us to watch Aleksei. His aura is extremely strong and can easily affect anyone within his vicinity, especially if he is upset at the time. I am just glad the pup is quite a happy little thing, or we would all be in for a rough ride. I can't help but laugh at this thought. I hope Lyra manages to relax for a while. She really is an amazing Luna, even though she is exhausted she never turns away anyone who needs her, or even just a person to listen to them. Willow has been showing both Lyra and the Doc what their duties are and how the pack has been getting run. Of course Lyra and I have already started to change things especially when it comes to those in charge. The thing with my Queen is she is as deadly as they come but her heart is huge and she feels every single person's emotions. This is exactly why the situation with the Omegas really affected her so much that she sank so much of her mo
LyraAleksei is four months old. I swear he is the best baby, he never cries. Watching Maddox with him makes my heart swell with love. The little King is obsessed with Chaos, as soon as his Father shifts into his black wolf Aleksei gets excited. Watching him pull at Chaos, and the huge wolf looks like he is so in love with our baby. Our commitment ceremony and wedding are being combined, tomorrow is the big day. Kalsea is so excited she has been non stop planning with Evanka and Willow. I have been stuck in my little bubble with Maddox and our son. The love for my boys is at times overwhelming, I haven’t let Aleksei out of my sight. We have been learning as we go with Aleksei, he can feed off both blood and normal food. Maddox said he can feel his wolf spirit, at his age it is unheard of in normal wolf children. His aura is very strong, if he gets upset only Maddox and myself can get near him as his aura is too much for anyone else. Willow has been desperate to take him to give me a
LyraBlissful pain free darkness, where am I? Where is Maddox? As this thought hits me I feel a wave of panic run through me. My baby, is my baby ok? Shit! I need to get back from wherever this is, I need to get to them. Open your eyes Lyra! I scream at myself. It's funny the minute I start to feel parts of my body I know I am on my way back. First the tingling in my hands and feet, then the rest come to life. That’s when I hear him, my Maddox. He’s calling my name, I am calling back to him but nothing is coming out. I hear the pleading in his voice and it breaks my heart. I am coming my love, just hold on. Then the searing pain explodes through me and my eyes fly open.“Baby, your back” Maddox says as he peppers kisses all over my face, before I can answer him another pain knocks the breath right out of me. Sweat runs down my face as I try to gather my thoughts before another scream rips from my throat. “Lyra, Lyra listen to me” Kalsea says cupping my face and all I want to do is bi
LyraEverything has been steady Maddox and I are just back from Russia, it’s the last time I can fly before the little king arrives. The nest has been thriving, we spent a month there making sure everything was set up and ready for Evanka and Kammi to return. The gifts that the clan has been handing in for both Kameal and my pup as Maddox calls him is so heartwarming. There is a more relaxed atmosphere, they have accepted Maddox and that makes me proud of my people. Dollar has been over for quite some time with Demitri and he has been accepted into the clan. My people are doing better unfortunately two of the council men have been removed and replaced, but this is all in the good of our clan moving forward and healing.I am huge, my swollen stomach is bigger than Evanka was when she had Kameal and I still have six weeks left. I love how attentive Maddox has been but it is driving me crazy, I feel smothered. Willow has been amazing. She threw me a baby shower before we left for Russia
LyraIt has been a few weeks since Archer was shot and Maddox’s parents were returned to the pack holding cells. The pack has actually started to heal from what has been going on, especially the Omegas. The new housing project is looking good and the school building is almost finished. The sense of community is amazing, the pack is now working as one as a team, as a pack.I know Maddox is stressed about his parents and what to do personally. We all know what would have happened if It was my choice, but my Alpha isn’t quite as ruthless as I am. Demitri and Dollar left for Russia a few days ago so that Kammi can return to Evanka as she is nearing the end of her pregnancy and Kalsea didn't want her flying so late in her final trimester. The little king I am carrying has been kicking up a storm, I swear he gets excited when he hears his fathers voice. I would be lying if I said the pregnancy was going smoothly, being sick everyday and the tiredness is unbelievable. The truth is I wouldn
Maddox Today is the day of my parents' trial. I have hardly slept, I lay awake cuddling Lyra’s tummy talking to our pup. I have never felt so grateful more than I do every time I look at my mate, she really is my light. She stirs in my arms before her stunning red eyes blink up at me “Have you not slept?” She asks as she leans up and pecks my lips. “Don’t worry about me, you just keep growing our pup” A beautiful smile crosses her face at the mention of our pup. She reaches up and runs her hand down my jaw, earning a growl of appreciation from Chaos, my wolf loving the touch. “You know we can postpone this if you aren’t ready” She says while placing small kisses to my bare chest. Closing my eyes I allow the feel of her in my arms to bring the peace I need. Shaking my head “No, let's just get it over with” I lean down and kiss her deeply enjoying the small moans of pleasure she makes. Pulling back I look down at her “Besides, we have our Alpha and Luna ceremonies to look forward to,
LyraI have been home for a week now and Kammi, Luca and Masimo went to sort out the royal nest. My sister is nothing but a ball of hormones, I am glad I don't seem to have them. I am not as far on as Evanka, her baby bump is very noticeable. She begged me not to send Kammi to Russia as he is her support, even though her husband is in the cells beneath the packhouse. At this moment I am actually waiting for her to come to my office. I have many things to discuss and her husband is one of them. There is a small tap at the office door, I shout come in. Evanka is really glowing in this pregnancy and actually thriving here in this pack, she has taken to helping set up the new homes for the Omegas. For the first time in years she feels like she belongs. I hate that I will need to send her back but she is the only one I trust well except my men.“Come sit, we must talk” She nods and sits, I hate how submissive she is. “First of all, what are your plans for Maximus?” Her eyes go wide as she
