His Royal Mate 1
Chapter 1AriaI tumbled down into a cacophony of sound and heat. Lava bubbled from the Genesis Pit I had voluntarily jumped into, spitting up from the depths and searing my skin.I was determined to unlock the mage within me. While I was driven to take that jump, falling into molten lava with the magma burning every inch of my body suddenly felt like a bad decision as pain seared every nerve. I was buoyed on the sounds of screaming and song.The wailing came from people who wanted me back among the living, and the songs came from those who were already dead. A vision flashed before me, but it wasn’t my life I saw. It was their memory of the moment Warlord Zonas marched his troops into the Onyx Rah kingdom. People fled their homes in distress as the Crypt Claw soldiers fought Onyx Rah’s Royal Guard. Black wolves battled fiercely to protect their people and their homes, but the Crypt Claw army were too many in number and too ruthless in temperament to defeat.As my bones cracked and br
His Royal Mate 2
As I exited the pool, I shifted into my wolf and was surprised to find that she, too, had been made more beautiful by the ordeal. She was black with a trail of blond diamond fur patches down her back and on the tips of her ears and paws. She was massive, much bigger and stronger than before.I could feel magic pulsing through the air as it filled my body with an undeniable force. I’d unlocked my mage, yet beyond that, I carried with me the power of all those souls who had perished. I was their voice, their beacon, and their chance for resurrection.I wanted to tell Lex I’d found my mage, but then I remembered I’d jumped into the pit with him screaming and wailing for me to stop. He must’ve thought I was dead. I had to get to him and let him know that not only had I survived, I was thriving in a way I’d never thought possible.I looked around me to find a way out. Magma and lava flowed everywhere. Above me, in a pool of bubbling lava, was the Genesis Pit. The air was hot and thick with
His Royal Mate 3
Chapter 2LexAria was alive! I couldn’t think of anything else, just the fact that she had survived the impossible. She’d jumped into a pit of molten lava, and come out moments later looking more radiant and beautiful than she ever had. I wasn’t thinking of Sire Vanoire or Polonius watching us, nor was I considering that my brother was right there beside me; I knew Cheyenne would be thrilled for our reunion. I’d kissed Aria with reckless abandon, grateful to see her alive. Now, we faced a sea of angry expressions and had to contend with the fact that we were actually on the run from Polonius and his men.At the moment, I didn’t care. I had Aria back, yet she was different. Not only was she more radiant, but her aura and light seemed brighter, like she was becoming a beacon for her people. She exuded such an immense amount of power, I could feel it electrifying the air.She had changed. While I didn’t doubt she still loved me, I couldn’t help but wonder if things going forward would b

“Surely not behind her this very instant,” Polonius said with a laugh, looking pointedly around us as if the threat of Navarrian armed forces wasn’t a deterrent.This sent Aria into a rage. Having just obtained her magic, she had little control over its use. With her fury boiling over, she yanked her hands free from Polonius and launched blasts of fire and wind at him, making him jump away from her before being burned alive.The heat radiating from Aria destroyed dilapidated buildings and overgrown trees, proving the great magnitude of her magic. From the blazing flames, a being started to take shape. Monstrous and dangerous, the fire creature grew to an unfathomable height. Since Aria’s mage didn’t have the means to temper her magic, she quaked in the throes of rage, infernos spurting and popping around her. The monster she created didn’t know who was on the right or wrong side of the argument and likely would have killed everyone had Sire not stepped in.“Aria!” Sire Vanoire called

Aria stiffened a little in my grip, but the tension in her muscles quickly released. Whatever objection she’d tempered must have passed.“My dear brother, Aria clearly doesn’t need anyone’s protection,” Cheyenne said with a laugh. “However, I relish the chance to learn more about leading our troops and honing my fighting skill. I’ll fill in for you for as long as you need me. Father now trusts me enough to sit at his table and participate in his chamber meetings in the great salon,” He gave a proud smile. “They’ve been riveting and very informative.”A pang of jealousy stabbed me. Only months ago, I was the only Redveign heir to sit at my father’s table and be privy to his chamber meetings where vital issues relating to our kingdom were discussed. While it hurt to think I was no longer able to sit by my father’s side and weigh in on crucial matters, I couldn’t think of anything more important at present than Aria’s health and well-being. Both were being compromised by her transformati

“I told you,” Lex scolded Sire.Sire Vanoire lowered his arms and caught his own breath. “I had to see the extent of her raw magic,” he said as if doing so was absolutely vital to my existence.“She needs to rest. She’s just been burned alive, and all you can think to do is try and fry her again?” Lex was both exasperated and incensed.“I have my reasons for doing so,” Sire said, regaining his strength.“We need to eat.” Lex glared at him. “You brought us to your home, and as reluctant as I am to be your guest, I must ask that you provide us food and a place to rest. Polonius backed down too easily today. We can’t expect him to relent that quickly. He will return. At any moment, he and his Crypt Claw warriors will become our biggest problem. We can’t face them starving and fatigued.”“Of course not,” Sire Vanoire said condescendingly. “This way.”Sire Vanoire walked to his front door, and it magically opened. Once we were inside the room, my stress dissipated with the warmth and pleas
His Royal Mate 7
“I wish Amadeus was teaching you and not Sire. He didn’t tell you about being your father because his love for your mother was forbidden, however, I appreciated that he still sheltered you. I would much rather he be your guide,” Lex sighed and dunked his bread again.“As would I, but he’s being poisoned and controlled by Polonius. He can’t help me, but soon, very soon, I’ll rip him from that monster’s clutches. Polonius is going to pay for all he and his family have done to the Midnight Moon Pack.” Anger warmed my ears and tightened my throat at the thought of Polonius' grandfather killing all of my ancestors and trapping their souls in the Tombs.“Revenge is never a good motivator, Aria,” Lex said, feeling the need to counsel me for some reason.“I agree, but liberation, retribution, and restoration is,” I said with a smile, easing the mood and eating more. “As long as Sire Vanoire’s goals align with mine I don’t see anything wrong with letting him teach me what he knows. He’s a very
His Royal Mate 8
I dipped myself into the water and met his raging cock, my legs straddling him. He leaned in and kissed my lips, and my insides electrified with the familiar taste of him. I had missed him. His fingers danced over my flushed skin, making my nipples hard, sensitive, and needy.“Let’s never leave this bathtub,” he whispered into my neck. “I want to suspend time forever.”His breath was warm and soft against my overheated neck. I writhed on his erection, wanting him inside me as I bit down on his moist skin. The bone of his clavicle lodged softly in my mouth before I licked his shoulder, wanting to devour him.“I don’t want to stay in this bathtub,” I countered. “I want you to take me to the bed and make love to me there.” I curled my fingers around his cock and tugged on it slightly, hardening him more. “Forever.”“Yes, my queen,” he barely breathed.After finding a bar of scented soap and various bath oils, we made quick work of lathering up and scrubbing the dirt, dust, and blood from
