“Where you able to find out anything about who attacked me?” I couldn’t help myself but ask.“Did they get away?” “The assassin was captured”, Oti said as I continued to look at him.My attacker had already been captured. Of course, King Roman said he would. Even if he didn’t, I doubt the prince would let them get away with such disrespect on his intended even though we both know it’s a false title.“Did you recognized who it was?” I asked even more curiously.“He is still under investigation but I can tell he was hired even though he still hasn’t given anything up yet” he explained more and I was left nodding before he stopped abruptly to stare at me.“I will make them pay, I don’t care who has tried to hurt you but I will make sure they regret every bit of their decision to hurt what’s mine” he said darkly and I was left stiffen with a mortified blush over my skin.I remembered his declaration back at the banquet and now, I struggled to come up with something to say as I lifted my
Before I could asked him what he wanted to do next, he parted my legs before positioning himself between them and I was left gasping, anticipating the stab of pain.“You need to relax, love or it’s going to hurt more than you are anticipating” He said quietly and I gave a nod, totally bracing myself.He hesitated for another second before he began to push into me, gently yet steadily.I yelped at the fire of pain that came with every bit of his advancement. He paused and I exhaled another breath before he plunged into me once again, this time with precision and I couldn’t help but cry out and then whimpered over and over as I completely tensed all over him painfully.“Fuck, you are so tight” He cursed u set his breath as he pulled out just about enough to plunge back in again, this time as deeper as he could, causing me to sigh out with pleasure.Prince was really big within me as he paused for me to catch my breath, probably waiting for me to adjust to his size before he began to mo
I was led into the Prince large study once again with Agnes closely behind.Prince was standing in front of five male guards all dressed in their official regalia. I couldn’t hear what he was speaking to them but he stopped and turned to face me once he noticed my presence in the room.His beautiful grey eyes held mine I was left feeling light headed as I continued to walk towards him before he reached out a hand and take mine.“Iris,” Prince said simply before turning to the five male I now recognized to be humans. Humans were built but not as large as the werewolves. They are slightly smaller and their features less aggressive as compared to their shape shifters superiors.“These are human guards I have personally handpicked and I want you to look at them carefully and pick one. He will be your personal guard” He said sharply with a nod towards them and I hesitated for a second, my sight entirely focused on him before turning to look at the men just briefly, not even at their featur
“Which one is me?” I asked Logan excitedly.“That one” he said pointing at one of the stars lined up in the dark sky above us“That brightest one” Logan added before turning to smile at me as we lay in my parent garden late in the night.It was dark into night but the stars were shining brightly at us, making the garden bright.I chuckled with amusement as his reply. “Which one is you then?”“I’m the one right next to the brightest one that is you” He looked at me, his smile getting wider and I reached out and pinched the bridge of his nose fondly as we both chuckle even more.Those moment seems just like yesterday as I was left staring at Logan’s face.He was standing not too far behind me, quiet like a shadow yet his eyes was watching me just as fiercely.My eyes burned with tears, a strange heaviness hanging on my chest as I continued to stare at my best friend now turned guard.“Logan?” I took a step towards where he stood still, my voice barely audible as I blink the tears away t
“Prince!” I exclaimed when I realized it was him.“What are you doing out here?” Prince asked as he came and stood beside me while Logan straightened immediately with a deep bow at his presence.I was suddenly lost for words as I stood with my head lowered, my hands clasped together.“Why is she out here by this time“ He said with a glare at Logan and he quickly lowered his head as well but before he could explain, I quickly replied.“it was my fault” I began and he turned to face me, his eyes soften a bit.“I thought you would be asleep by now only for me to return and find the room empty” He stated, his eyes narrowing back at my flimsy piece of clothing hidden behind the heavy coat on top.I felt his finger under my chin before lifting my face up to look at him.“Speak, Iris. What happened?”I swallowed back the lump in my throat. “I’m sorry, Prince. I couldn’t sleep so I asked Logan to bring me here. I didn’t realize it was late into the night already”I heard him sighed then follo
Prince turned me on my back to face him, his eyes dilated with beads of sweats scattered around his broad chest before he pushed into me once again and then began to rock into me with great determination as he stole my breath all over again and with each twitch and shutter my body made, Prince sighed with deep contentment.And then suddenly, he grasped my hips rather firmly before he began to pound into me more violently before leaning into me entirely and gasping with release.I held him tightly to my chest as he spasmed against me, pushing deep into me as he did rather possessively.When he was done. He stayed above me as he looked down at me with something in his eyes.“You’re mine, Iris and no one can have you this way except me” His words sounded light yet heavy with meaning.“Okay” I smiled with amusement, reaching up to run my hands through his hair.“We should wash up” He said after a while, moving back to stand on his feet before adding.“We can do it again in the bathroom”“
I walked out of the breakfast room with Agnes hurrying after me and down the hallway.My eyes burn with tears but I wouldn’t let it spill. Why am I even upset? I have no idea but one I know was in the fact that Lady vena wanted me to feel this way.Logan saw the look in my eyes but before he could ask if I was okay, I spoke up first.“Would you please lead me to the garden?”“of course, miss Iris” He said with a bow and began to lead the way.Logan led us through the large corridor and into the garden and I was finally able to breathe without feeling like I was being suffocated.“I’m sorry, Iris. You missed out on breakfast because of me” Agnes said quietly beside her and she turned to face her.“You don’t have to apologize for anything because it wasn’t your fault. There was no way I could have had breakfast knowing someone I care about haven’t had food”“Oh, Iris. You really are different” Agnes said before wrapping her arms around me and I let out a sigh and hugged her back before
I looked away from his face, not able to see the rage in his eyes any more. I took a deep breath and began to explain.“We were at the garden earlier and Logan_”“_He did what?” Prince seethed dangerously and I flinched.“He didn’t do anything, he only h_”“_hurt you? Did he attempt to hurt you?”“What? No, Logan is my friend, he would never hurt me” I exclaimed sharply before I could stop myself and his eyes narrowed.“A friend? West?” He repeated incredulously and I realized what terribly mistake I have made referring to him as my friend.“I see, so you two have gotten close enough to be friends” He said with a thoughtful nod before lifting me off his lap and back on the bed.I watched in confusion as he moved to the door and pushed it open and called at Logan and soon enough, he walked in and stood before us.His eyes darted and met mine briefly before it darted away and back at the Prince.“My fiancée tells me you two are now friends. Is that true?” Prince demanded furiously.My h
Epilogue I pulled up my hair in a neat bun and glanced at my reflection one last time before I began to hurry around determinedly in search of son Nelson. I needed to get ready so I tricked him into hiding so I could search for him and so far, he is still in hiding and now I have to pretend to search him out even though I already know where he was. I waited a moment, listening for his breathing from around the room. “Found you!” I cried out laughing when as I revealed his small form hiding under the table, the skirt doing a really poor job in hiding him completely. Instead of trying to run, I pulled the child into my grasps in an affectionate hug and began to tickle him, causing him to laugh and giggle. “Let play again” Nelson requested sweetly, lifting his chin up to look at me pleadingly, his eyes, one grey and one crimson. His vampire side was far more suppressed so that he didn’t hold fangs and can walk under the sun without a protective ring like I did. Nelson was thankfull
Since my family arrived, I had spent most of my time with them, trying to catch up with things that had happened at home after I was taken. Turns out most of this villagers felt betrayed by what my parent did while most still sympathized with them, after all, they also know what it feels like to loose their children to become slaves.While we talked about all that had happened behind me, we also talked about my life here in the palace and all that had transpired this past few months before their arrival. The welcoming ball was scheduled for two days after my family’s arrival, mostly to give them time to rest and adjust to the new environment and surprisingly, my parent adapted rather quickly.The next night was a bit of stress as u was being fitted for my dress. A gold dress with jewel of diamonds that Otis had gifted to me specially for the occasion.Once I was ready, I thanked my maids and then stepped out into the hallway. Henry was there, standing before my room diligently. I fl
It has been a week since Prince Otis became the king. He has been so busy with palace affairs that I barely ever saw him. So, after eating breakfast alone that morning, I decided to go see him in his study and just as I had imagined, he has a desk filled with paper work.At my presence, he seem to pause for a moment as he beckon on me to go to him. I hurried to where he sat behind his desk and he pulled me into his arms, a relief sigh escaping my mouth quietly.When we pulled a little bit apart, he reached out a hand to my still flat stomach and rub gently on it.“How are you and the baby?”I smiled, “We are doing good”“I’m sorry I couldn’t join you for breakfast”He said and I nodded before I lean in and brush his lips with mine before leaning away.I shrugged before replying, “I know you have work, your Majesty” I said teasingly and he chuckled before pulling me completely to sit on his laps.“Your family is coming” he stated simply and I hesitated, wondering if he was honest.“My
I couldn’t even sleep as planned, My mind was replaying everything that had happened. I kept wondering what my mother looked like at least I know her name was Katherine maybe prince can tell me a little bit about them.I made my way into the bathroom and filled the bathtub before shrugging out of my cloth and slipped inside. I spent my time washing up in the bath before returning to the bedroom to change into something else and into bed once again.I couldn’t lie still as I rolled over on the bed instead of trying to go outside and meet the sun as it was still high up in the sky. More hours passed by before I heard the door crack open and Prince walked in. I sat up sharply, my heart hanging in my throat.When the prince hesitated by the door, I quickly got out of bed and began to approach him carefully. I took a step closer and stood before him as I looked into his eyes. They held something familiar. Something I had seen before but before I could speak, he beat me to it and spoke up f
“Unbind and bring her out, it’s time to go” The King ordered and one of the guard unlock the shackles around my feet binding me to the chair as well as my hands and I let out a relief sigh before I was pulled back on my feet.Still feeling weak, I crumbled to the floor before I felt two strong pair of hands grip my arms on either side and lifted me back on my feet to follow king Roman out the door.With two guards holding me on both side with enough force to cause bruises, I wondered how strong did they think a vampire actually was. On my way down the halls, I spotted a few people I recognized. Agnes was among them as they a good staring in horror as they saw us pass by.My heart raced in my chest as I looked for the Prince but something in my heart felt that he was far away from me as I was on my own. I felt afraid when I thought of the Prince, my chest feeling tight and breathless.I was escorted out of the building and into the carriage wapiti outside with the king following from b
King Roman took a step closer and then reached out a hand to grasp my chin but I pushed away before he could but that didn’t stop him as she grabbed my face roughly before turning me enough to get a better look at my neck.“You have healed just fine. Not bad at all” he said before his hands dropped from my face and I let out a groan.“So are you going to tell him what my kind ever did to you or not? Since you had every single one of them killed then it must be pretty bad I suppose?”“Hmm” he said simply before turning away.“You have always been curious so I’m going to tell you a story" king Roman said.“During my young days, I became friends with a vampire king, we would do things together, go places together and even fight our bullies together. We were so inseparable that my parents and his tried everything they could to break us but it didn't work”“We grew up to the age of marriage and got married to our respective spouses and even had children. Then that was when he showed his tr
Iris POVMy eyes widen as they start to advanced further with their blades towards us and I dropped to my knees in response before they'd reach me.Just as I did, Prince quickly transformed into a large beast diving over me and attacking the guards coming towards me. I looked back up to see bloodshed around me, guards screamed at a single bite and prince was large enough to tower over them as he stood protectively over me.Heads and limbs were torn off from their bodies and their blows were bouncing off the Prince fur as he paws slide between them, none of them his match.I wanted to stand up, to run away but I couldn’t move and if I could, I wouldn’t be able to leave Prince behind. Suddenly, a much powerful roar in the room was heard and I dove to the ground wincing as I heard the new beast collided into Prince wolf and then I heard a high pitched cry as Prince was hit with the attack painfully.“Prince” I cried out, lifting my self at last from the ground and towards Prince collapse
(Otis POV)There an intense heaviness in my chest as I stood beside Lady Avril at the center of the arena surrounded by guests and of course, my father the king who was sitting at his spot, his cold eyes not so cold at the moment but glistering with what I could only term as joy.I bet this moment has been in his imagination longer than anything he has ever thought of. Everyone else has a look of fulfilled expectations on their faces.Not once did I imagined that my life would turn out like this. I don't want to marry the woman standing beside me but I had no choice. I wanted to stop the wedding but couldn't. I can’t even look at the face of the woman is who is about to be mated to me. I know she was happy and full of smiles and didn't even care about my expression nor feelings. She just wanted to be called my wife and be the next Queen Luna. My eyes searched around the hall, hoping to see Iris but she was nowhere in sight. When I got out of bed this morning, she was still asleep.
Iris POV. With slouched posture and head lowered, she continued to stared at the floor quietly. Her hands fidgeting with the hem of her dress even more. From the frantic beating of her heart, I could tell she was nervous about something. “Agnes? Do you really know where I can get my bracelet back? If you do please let me know. I really need to get it back” I asked again before lifting her chin up to stare into her eyes and in them I saw guilt, so much guilt and regret as tears had start to pool in them before spilling across her cheeks. "I'm so sorry, Iris. Please forgive me” She cried, holding on to my hands but I couldn’t say a word as I was pretty much taken back by her unexpected reaction and she continued. “I didn’t mean to take it” she said quietly, her voice barely a whisper. I didn’t even know how to react. I knew she was the only one that had access to the room but I didn’t imagine she had taken it. What could have been her reason? “Why did you take it? Did you know who
