Ruby
They played right in the palm of her hands.
Punny royalties. She thought smugly.
He was a strong and greedy soul. The rogue wolf was the perfect candidate.
Lust had been his downfall. He certainly had a big dick to enjoy and she did. Thoroughly. She had him for breakfast and spat out his bones.
Her lips curled cruelly from her lustful thoughts. Rest in burning pieces asshole.
Deep peels of laughter echoed in her ceremonial chamber were cut off suddenly when her mind focused on her mission.
Ruby would make sure he will be reincarnated into someone better. Deadlier. He will be her weapon and her protector.
Her ultimate killing machine.
The ritual to give birth to his soul would begin tonight while the moon was silvery-white and the dark sky hugged the hues of twinkling stars.
With the d
LucasHe gently grazed his rough thumb on his soulmate's bluish cast circling faintly on her delicate skin.Anna Marie. She looked so tired -- only a few hours of sleep for her while she was in his arms. He held her all night to dispel her nightmares. It had help -- only just.A surge of protectiveness calling forth hand in hand with extreme possessiveness surged through his veins. It took an effort to hold it down - tamping his impulses. Muscles tensed and protested. The drive to lock her on a castle until the danger had passed was a serious thought. One he was really considering. How?How to convince her that he needed to keep her with him. Safe. All the damn time.Lucas had known her independent streak all along and he didn't want to step on her dainty toes and or step around it. Yet he must. It was his needs roaring to be addressed.Their bond was stro
Anna MariePleasure.One word. Eight letters. He, the Dragon King, her mate, had given her that and more.So much more. Faith. Trust. She didn't know she was capable of giving credit to those words, to a strong male. A dominant and autocratic one at that. To let him touch her body and pleasure her until she screamed. It was like falling from the sky, confident and sure -- knowing that someone will catch her. Unfettered joy. It's like tasting freedom after such long imprisonment.She shuddered at the memory. This time in pleasure. More. Yes, more indeed.After their glorious morning, he carried her to the shower and proceeded to clean every inch of her sated body. She tried to tempt him to give her more -- he growled playfully and promised her tonight.She grinned at the thought. Then sobered instantly when she realized they had reached the infirmary where
Anna MarieLucas said tonight. She was excited yet nervous. He had vowed they will consummate their bond after the mating ceremony --not before.So what could they do before then? Assuming he had the patience to explore MORE with her.Rie had faith in him though. He wanted her. With his experience...Scowling in the dark --glaring at the ceiling-- she didn't dare to finish her thoughts. It was too disturbing. But...Does he have a lot of experience? Her mind blanked. Refusing to dwell on his past. Did she even satisfy him today?She blushed. He came. A lot and all over her. Did that count? She glowered. Wishing she was not so naive and scared. Maybe she should explore websites. -Not my cup of tea.--I miss him.-She hasn't seen him
LucasThe birds chirping merrily and the slight breeze of a late morning woke him up from a deep contented sleep. Rie left the door from the veranda, they both preferred the fresh garden air in the morning to the air conditioning.Lucas inwardly frowned and his entire body stilled --realizing something was not right, hoping he was wrong-- without opening his eyes, he gingerly patted the cold space beside him, realizing it was empty, he bolted out of the bed in a heartbeat.Anna MarieWhere was she? He tilted his head to his left. No running water in the shower and her walk-in closet was empty. He was about to search for her when he realized he wouldn't get much further in his silk boxers.Impatient, he entered the bathroom for a quick shower, and in 10 minutes, he was dressed for the day and navigating the
Anna MarieShe listened with half an ear and thought of her youngest sister, Mish. How would she react? Did she see him when he arrived? Goddess! She hoped not. If she knew her sister --and she knew her very well since she was the one who took care of her when their mother died-- it's either she will freak out or she will faint. That will not be a good start.Anna was nervous as well. She kept glancing at the door. Good manners prevailed them from leaving the room. Esmeralda was a very important guest, the head of the High Council."Sweetheart, we will deal with whatever it is later," Lucas murmured on her temple and squeezed her hand. She nodded. Giving her attention back to the most important topic --saving their lives."I have placed some of my people along the borders and I have sent some of them to spy on Councilman Re
Anna MarieWhen Lucas asked her to dress warmly because she will be riding him tonight --she had imagined herself perched on his scaley dragon's back and him flying above the clouds, under the moonlight.Romantic, right?Yes. If the expectation was met with reality.She was riding his back alright, only he was running like the wind in the forest separating his estate from Xander's. Hate to imagine the state of her brown locks when they arrived at his mansion. She swore she will strangle him if she found out her hair was beyond redemption.And how could he carry her without breaking a sweat? These supernatural creatures had amazed her since day one. Well, except the villains. She shuddered at the thought of Zachary."You okay there, sweetheart?" Lucas's deep rumble was carried by the wind."Doing swell dandy fine," she muttered. Disgruntled
LucasHe would gladly trade all his riches, all his gold, his diamonds, and his life for the woman in his arms.From now on his world will revolve around her. They were one. Their souls and heart were entwined. He had gladly merged their souls. He never felt freer, more overjoyed beyond comprehension.Consummating their bond was not part of his plan. All he wanted was to propose and confess his love. Her giving of herself to him was unexpected. Yet, with no regrets, they indeed had their mating ceremony.His Anna Marie had become the official Dragon Queen.No matter, he will still arrange an official mating ceremony. He wanted to give her everything. He wanted to see her walking down the aisle in white.For she was still the innocent beauty despite him being buried too deep inside her a while ago. The memories stirred his cock. He ignored it. Rie would be
Anna MarieShe had never felt so burning hot in her entire life. Every inch of her body felt like it was simmering from the inside. Only Lucas's touch had soothed her. Icy baths helped extremely.Rie was drifting between sleep and wakefulness. Uncaring of the time. She was in a dream world and she had a task to accomplish. Something vital. It had to be done and it had to be attained.Her head thrashed on the pillows, her eyes clenched shut. Needing answers to survive."Sweetheart," his soothing voice was a balm to her soul. She whimpered."Luc," she murmured raspily. "Water."She could feel his arms surrounding her and he supported her body, guiding her to recline on their bed, a few seconds later she felt the glass on her lips. She took a grateful gulp of the icy cold water."Slowly, my queen." He whispered. His lips on her hair. Sighing,
Anna MarieFour Weeks Later"Chef, the rack of lamb, medium rare is on the pass, waiting for your approval." Her new sous chef, highly recommended by chef Nicolai from ICE was brought in to fill Indali's temporarily vacant position.-What's her name again? Joana. Oh, right.-"Thanks, Joana. And make sure we have enough ravioli for tonight. And check my baked lasagna from time to time." Rie went back to plating her delicate dessert for the evening. Aside from that she also prepared Lucas's favorite.Greek donuts with luscious dark chocolate ganache and cherries. Yum. Plus a surprise.This made her nervous. It was expected to happen though. So it wouldn't be much of a surprise for everyone but she would love to see her mate's reaction when she confirmed the news."Chef, a VIP is requesting your presen
UnknownSon of a bitch!He failed once more. And his most powerful ally, Ruby was incarcerated. Councilman Rexin was facing trial and death.A fucking mess this was.He had gained a lot of treasures from the raids but it was not enough.He had to come out soon and fight. Damn with keeping his identity a secret.He had a weapon. One that would rock the Queens's world. They had no idea the kind of nightmare coming for them.Faith and alliances will be tested.All the careful planning will come to fruition with HER help. And she will help him. The woman had no choice.She was his to command.It's time to give her a call.Eager as always, she answered on the first ring."My love?""It's time for you to join me.""Wher
LucasBeing coddled was one of the things he hated the most. He was an alpha male. The King of Dragons. The ruler of magnificent and ancient beasts.A puny in his queen's arms.So much for his dialogue. One look from her, plus her not-so-subtle threat that he was sleeping outside their bedroom if he didn't comply with her wishes made him strip in a flash and let her bandage his healing wounds without so much as a murmur.Damn! The Goddess had given him a tyrant for a mate. And he was eternally grateful. He wouldn't have it any other way.Heavy lidded eyes watched her nimble fingers tend to him, stirring his urges. Her touch was so soft and delicate he quelled the urge to shudder in pleasure.A celebration of a different kind forming in his mind."Maybe if you could sponge bath me?" He suggested innocently.Narrowi
Anna Marie"No!" The distress in her voice carried through the black clouds above.Thunder and lightning illuminated the blurry ground below them. It was no longer flaming and she could no longer see Zachary's melting body.He was naught but ashes now. Though she didn't care what happened to that fucker. Knowing he was dead was enough for her."Little chef," the man she was holding for dear life whispered his plea once more. "We are going to fall.""Then we fall. Together. We die together, Lucas. I am with you all the way." She whispered with conviction, tears blurring her image of him, her eyes never leaving his.If this was the price of their love then so be it."I love you, little chef. Forever."He was saying goodbye. His glowing dragon's eyes were dimming. His heart, beating alongside hers was slowly fading.
LucasHe gritted his teeth. No one, no one owned his queen but him. They belong together. Forever.Wanting to finish the fucker once and for all, he commanded his beast to calm down and promised him retribution soon."Give us the children first. We have fulfilled our end of the bargain." Esmeralda demanded, raising her arms."Okay, little sister. I have no use for those brats anyway." Ruby clapped her hands and several slaves appeared with the pups.The powerful priestess immediately took the crying babies, soothing them. "I'll be back, Ruby." She warned before she vanished with her precious cargo."Lucifer," the gothic beauty enticed in a sickly sweet voice. They all felt like gagging when she tore the front of her black dress revealing her pale body with generous curves. "Claim me." She beckoned."No, bitch. You will never be my qu
Anna MarieThe hours spent making love had not eased the heavy emotions in her heart. By late afternoon, they decided to join their guests at the library. Hands joined and clasped tightly. She was afraid to let him go.To her surprised, Esmeralda and Lucifer were waiting for them.Anna Marie blushed. She didn't mean to be late. She and Lucas shared a bath then well..."Your Majesty, I am glad you heeded my advice." The priestess inclined her head. Though her face was unreadable, her palest of green eyes showed hope.Out of character, which surprised the lady, Rie closed the distance between them, embraced her tightly, and bussed her cheek.It took a few seconds, however, Esmeralda recovered and patted her back like a loving mother. A soothing sensation slithered down her spine. Anna Marie was grateful to the priestess.Then her attenti
LucasThey had yet to hear from Ruby, the evil mistress of the Dark Angel. Everyone was on edge. The realms on high alert.Esmeralda and Lucifer were due to arrive in the afternoon. And from there, they will have the whole night of planning until the exchange.Watching his Argetlam's tired face, he grimaced. Her transition had been tough and now they were facing the biggest challenge yet."If we could all retire for a few hours until Esme and Lucifer arrive?" He suggested to his friends. The ladies were about to protest but their men nodded in agreement. They too felt the need to take care of their mates.Before Rie could say anything, in a practice move, he swooped her in his arms, with a nodded to everyone in the library, who also had their ladies in their arms, he bade them farewell."Lucas," she squirmed. Her eyes flashing in annoyance.
AlexanderThe Lycan KingFuck! He shouldn't have left them. The events leading to this moment had been part of their enemies' plans. Creating a diversion compelling his presence so they would have the opportunity to attack the main house while he was gone.Anna May. His pups. His sister.-Alexander!Uncertainty course through his body, wishing he could run faster. Almost there, from the treeline, he could see his roof and smoke surrounding the perimeter. Lots of it. From the blast. He growled savagely.-I am coming, baby.No response. All he felt was pain. His heart squeezing. He knew then and there they lost something precious.-Be strong, my queen. I'm coming.A heartbreaking scene welcomed him when he entered their estate giving rise to his lycan's howls
Anna MarieFuck! There were too many of them. Wide-eyed, fear rolling in waves all over her body, she trembled."Lucas." She mumbled. Her throat was parched from the overwhelming scene below her. Alexander's wolves were being eaten by the hideous creatures. They were writhing and crying out in pain.What could she do to help them?Her sisters. The pups!-Be brave, my queen. He needs you.Her dragon spirit. She was his heart and his strength. He needed her. Just like she needed him. And she was no longer an ordinary human.It was so freaking hard but she commanded herself to relax. A herculean task. Taking deep and slow breaths, the beating of her heart began to slow.Anna Marie felt her strength arising. Energy. The source came from deep within her. Channeling her power to her beast, her round thighs tigh
