Noah and I step back and watch as all the Beta males are escorted down the stairs and into the cells before their wrists are shackled and pulled taut. Once the last Beta male is secure and the cell door is closed and locked, Noah and I make our way out of the dungeons.As I ponder this I look over at Noah, he looks at me with concern. I go to say what’s on my mind and confer with him over what to do. However, as we exit the dungeon door, I clamp my mouth shut as I look up and see Alpha Charles leaning on the side of the tunnel with a small knowing smirk on his lips.Unfortunately, I don’t have anything on the Alpha as of yet, though we all know that he is probably in charge of everything that happens. However, if Cole is right and the Alpha here has put a slave mark on Mane Aya then it will be near impossible to get the information out of her as she will feel obligated to protect him.Ignoring the Alpha I turn with Noah still by my side and make my way to Aya’s office. Not wanting to
Dream…I open my eyes and look up at the bright full moon above me. I hear a soft male voice on the wind and sit up to look around. I don’t see anything but the empty field and the evergreen trees surrounding it before the male voice gets louder.I get to my feet. I look down as I straighten and I realise that I am wearing a beautiful silver slip evening gown and as I look around again I am no longer in the field but in an elegantly decorated Ballroom with an open roof.I smile once I’ve done a full circle as I know where I am. This is the open ruin ballroom that Queen Seraphina and Queen Serenity decorate for major events, especially the full moon gatherings.I scan the room again and my breath catches in my lungs as my eyes land on the most gorgeous and handsome male I have ever seen. He walks up to me and bows before wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me into his body, as soft music starts to play he starts us dancing.This feels different to the dream-walk I normally hav
Once I had opened myself up to the connection I had made with the Ancients of my bloodline the regeneration of my Magick didn’t take long, however, it wasn’t the large influx of power like during the spell so it didn’t overwhelm me and after a while I was able to get to my feet without feeling weak. Unfortunately, I will have to meditate like this a few more times before my magick returns to normal.I sigh as I pick up the tray and return it to the kitchen before sitting at one of the counters at one of the Omega’s insistence. After a moment or two, he places a plate of food in front of me, smiles shyly and then returns to his work. I watched him puzzled until a slightly older Omega approached me, refilled my glass of juice and whispered,“He was one of the ones you and the King saved in the dungeon. They are all glad to be out of there and back where they are meant to be working. He is shy and was expressing his and everyone's thanks for what you did. Some of the older and more brave
Aya takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly before continuing, “That day Alpha Charles showed me his true colors…”Aya froze, the terror and shame coming off of her now was so thick, I could almost believe that it was my own. A feeling runs through me, informing me that the day she confronted him was the day that everything changed for her and the Pride. Sobbing softly with tears slipping down her cheeks, knowing that she wouldn't continue if I didn't help her again, I lightly touched her shoulder and whispered,“Flesh to fleshBone to bone.Vein to vein,Heal, relieve and regenerate.” I watch her take another breath and slightly relax. Nathaniel opens his link with me and says,“Is there a way for her to tell us and not have to relive it?” What he is asking is something similar to dreamwalking only we will be witnessing her memories instead of visiting her dreams. I nod my head and he asks.“What do you need?” “We will all have to open our mind links, keep them open and con
Third Person. We watch...Aya watched from her desk as Charles entered her office. She was surprised when Beta’s Karl and Samuel entered after him and closed and locked the door behind them. Shaking off the strange and uneasy feeling that ran through her and her cheetah Cassie she motioned for Charles to sit.Aya looked down at the paperwork in front of her gathering her courage before looking up and locking her gaze with Charles as she said,“Charles, there seems to be something going on within the Pride. Some of the lower-ranked warriors have bruises and there is a fear spreading throughout the Pride that wasn’t there before. Do you know what’s caused this and why?”Charles doesn’t answer her, making her squirm under his more intense gaze. Aya falters, though she covers it up by getting to her feet and walking around her desk to stand in front of it before returning her gaze to his and asking.“What have you done to my Pride, Charles?”Still not answering her and not expecting it,
With his green eyes flicking with gold and red, Nathaniel can’t suppress the low rumbling growl which is followed by a low hiss as he tries to get himself, Hunter and Cole under control as Savannah’s calming spell fades with her consciousness.From the reports he had been receiving and reading he knew that something like this was happening but to see the evidence of Alphas that were meant to protect participate in the unthinkable right in front of his eyes, it made his anger pliable.A whimper from the female in front of him has him fighting Hunter, Cole and the rage building inside him a little harder.Once they are all finally under some sort of control, Nathaniel looks over at Julian to find that he also seems to be fighting with his Vampire, Conner, for control as his eyes flash red. Knowing this is not the time for Conner to surface, Nathaniel lets out a small amount of his Royal aura focusing only on allowing Julian to get control over Conner and push him back but unfortunately,
Charles then watched as Aya and one of the other new faces entered Aya’s office a little while later. Though he didn’t know what they discussed or did with how long they were in there, he smiled to himself when he saw the new male leave Aya’s office with the mysterious female unconscious in his arms, believing that whatever they did they did it well.Charles had seen the controlled lust in a few of the visiting warrior's eyes, however fleeting it may have been as they patrolled the tunnels and the Pride’s territory. When the male had left, Charles had only caught a glimpse of the male that had remained within Aya’s office and smirked when he identified King Noah’s new second. He hadn’t had much to do with the Royals since they arrived wanting to keep a low profile, especially after the fiasco in the dungeons. Confident in himself though he hadn’t seen much of Noah’s new second Charles knew that if the second was among those lustful guards, then he had a high chance of convincing him
I sigh as I lean my forehead on Kyria’s hand which is in mine. Prince Victor assured me when he had finally come out of surgery with her that she would be fine. The accident had broken her spine and her ribs, unfortunately, part of her broken ribs had done more damage than first thought.He informed me that not only had a bit of rib cut deep into her lung but a small shard had snapped off and found its way into her heart, so every time her heart beat that small sliver of bone was cutting and scratching doing more damage.Kyria was strong though and after hours in surgery and though she hadn’t woken yet, she was now sharing a private room with Dad slowly recovering.With permission to use the private bathroom and having meals provided, I haven’t ventured anywhere from this private room wanting to be close to my family just in case Kyria woke and they required anything.I lift my head from her hand when I hear movement, a sigh and then a chuckle from the only other bed in the room.“Izz
