NATHANIEL...I straighten as Julian walks away, I look at Noah, he shakes his head but smirks knowing that no matter what he says to me now I will not change my mind. I then walk out of my office and down through the castle hallways to the front doors.I stop at the top of the steps and look over the males and females standing before me. I clasp my hands behind my back and nod my head before walking down the steps and over to where Victoria is standing holding the door open for me.I nod to her and say as I get in,“Julian informed you of the new destination?”“Yes, Nat. You expecting resistance?”“Yes.”She nods to me with a slight smile on her lips, she always did love a good fight. Once inside the SUV, I am soon joined by Noah and King Kevin. I look to the driver and smile as I nod at Griffin, letting him know that we can be on our way.As the SUV starts moving I look at N
GABRIELAI take a sharp breath in, my instincts as an Alpha and a Royal tells me to step up and do something and just as I'm about to do just that, the small courtyard is flooded with vampires. As soon as the vampires show themselves, I feel the pull from Allistair, Lance, Karlene and Genevieve to do their duty and protect me, but I quickly open my link to them."No! Don't move, don’t show them cause to believe we are anything but clan members."I felt their reluctance and doubt, but they listened and backed off, however; they stayed in close proximity. As the panic of the clan members around me began to rise even more, I knew I had to calm them so they didn’t get either themselves or me killed. Not wanting anyone to do anything stupid, I open my Royal link connected to the clan and say with Mila’s authority in a gentle tone.“Everyone, CALM! Don’t move, don’t fight, stay quiet and do as they say.”I let out my own slightly relieved sigh as the panic seemed to die down a little. I the
Romeo...Vlad’s spy within Nathaniel’s castle informed us that one of the Royal family had left, and had been given permission from Nathaniel to travel and find her place within the kingdom. Nicholas still wanted to murder Alaric for his treason and abandonment, as he couldn’t find another to take his place, especially after Vlad moved the operation to location 66.6.Not long after relocating, Vlad called all the humans of the S.D.E. into one of the many ballrooms of the broken-down castle we now called home. I was a little surprised when most of them took the news that Vlad wasn’t actually human well.I had expected to have to kill some of them, Kolby and Duncan, two of them. However, they seemed to be okay with it and even relished and thrived in the freedom of knowing, accepting and continuing their assigned work. Kolby even found that after working with Archer and Draven during the war, he liked being out in the field, and liked doing his interrogations and punishment when their f
ROMEO...I Have no intention of sparing her, as the humanity and mercy side of me died with my human. I turn my head just a little, look at Gabriela and smirk as I continue to dig my claws into the female's neck before pulling them back quickly and ripping her throat out allowing her body to slump to the ground, making her hand fall from my arm. I feel a wave of sadness and guilt come from Gabriela as she collapses to the ground and sobs,“Rosalie…”I then move quickly, crouching down in front of her before gently placing my fingers under her chin and applying a little pressure, making her look up at me. I smile at the power, fire and defiance that shimmers in her eyes behind the tears, that she is refusing to allow fall. Kolby is going to have so much fun trying to break this one as neither mine nor Vlad’s Royal aura will work on her as her own aura is extremely strong.I hear Kolby walk up behind me before stopping next to me and saying.“So, is this the little Royal rabbit we have
VLAD...The next week goes by quickly and I am once again sitting at my desk when one of the burner phones in the top drawer of my desk rings again. I open the drawer, pick up the phone and place it on the desk as I answer it and place it on speaker. This time I speak before he can.“What do you have for me?”“The King is leaving the castle.”“Really? Where is he going?”“He’s been talking to some of the WereShifter Kings and the high councils. He is planning on visiting some of the hard-to-convince and more independent high councils within the Forbidden Mountains.”“This is good…”“Your Highness, if I may? Most of the Prides within those Forbidden Mountains are made up of warrior females and a slightly corrupt Elder High Council. The warrior would make a tremendous addition to your army and the High Council member would be an asset if you can get to them first.”I smile. “That is a v
VLAD I watch as he turns on his heels and walks back out of my office, after he has left I hiss low at him even though I have told him again and again that I am a Royal and that he should be addressing me as such he still insists on calling me boss. I look over at Romeo as he shakes his head and says through our link honestly,“If he wasn’t one of the best at what he does, then I would have drunk him dry years ago…” “You still can…” “Nope. Poisoned blood, remember!?!” I know it was probably a stupid thing to do, but he was the best interrogator I had ever come across, especially for a human, some of his methods were questionable but that is another thing that I liked about him, so I used him as my guinea pig for a protective serum for selected humans against Vampires and Demons, killing the Vampire or the Demon or any supernatural that drank blood if they drank too much.However, there are other ways to kill him without touching his blood.I smirked, knowing that he would take car
THIRD PERSON Much to Nathaniel’s disappointment and agitation, as soon as they entered and made their way along the trail through the Forbidden Mountain, they had no choice but to stop at the first Pride. It was either stop and negotiate or slaughter the entire Pride and that was something that neither Nathaniel, Noah nor Kevin wanted at this point in Nathaniel’s new leadership.They take the time that Nathaniel knew that they didn’t have, to talk to the Mane of the Pride and the council member that resided there. After using the diplomatic approach of a king, a lengthy discussion and then a show of Hunter's Royal power and aura, Nathaniel managed to reason with them and get them to agree to give his way a try.This happens with the next Pride and the next. However, after stopping at each one, they leave with a loyal new ally. Unfortunately, the longer it was taking to get to the Vapor-Moon Pride, the more Hunter and Cole were getting agitated
SCARLETT “… NATHANIEL! …”I sit up as I scream his name, my breathing erratic, body covered in sweat, tears streaming down my cheeks as shock and fear still runs strong through me. Before I even get a chance to get myself back under control, my body goes ridged, my back arches, my head tilts back, and another scream is forced from my lips…VISION - THIRD PERSONOne last lash and she would be his. One last lash that was all he needed to give her. He pulls back the whip, swings his arm forward, allowing the whip to strike her back one last time. She screams one last time at the contact, extreme pain exploding through her small battered body.His cock goes painfully hard as not only was that the last of her punishment, but her scream was music to his ears. He drops the whip as his hands go to his pants, undoing them as he steps up to the female connected and hanging from the cell wall in front of him.He doesn
50 years later...NATHANIELI smile as I stand looking out the window of my office watching My love waddling around the backyard playing with our four youngest Vampups.I scan the rest of the backyard and my smile widens at how brightly it is decorated, ready for tomorrow night's full moon celebration.As I watch the youngsters play, I think about what we have achieved over the past 50 years and I am relieved that just like when Father had done the public punishment with the rogues all those years ago, the public punishment and display of King Blade did what I had expected and wanted.With everyone working together, especially the females, we managed to rebuild over half of the Prides that were disbanded and destroyed during the King’s war.As with most supernaturals, there are always members who try to push, bend, and outright break the laws. However, with the alliance with the MoonKing, AshMane and the other shifter kingdoms we have managed to reduce those members to a minimum. How
I don’t bother with shoes as I walk back into the bedroom, link my arm in Kyria’s and enter the receiving room. I pull her over to the small table that has the lunch tray on it, I guide her to sit down, I giggle as she shakes her head saying,“Lizzy, no I’m meant to be doing that for you… You’re the Queen…”“Ky, I may be everyone else’s Queen but I’m still your sister and that means that I can spoil you just as I used to…”We both start laughing, as she sits down I push in her chair before turning the tray on the table so that her plate is in front of her and mine is in front of the empty seat. I step to the side, sit down and remove the covers from the plates.We both lean forward and take a deep breath letting out a low moan of food pleasure at the aroma of the food. We both pull back laughing again before picking up our forks and digging in, glad the food has taken her mind off what she had asked me.Once we have finished the food, we move out o
I startle awake as I feel something skimming up and down my arm. I tense as arms tighten around me before I notice the sparks running under my skin. I opened my eyes to look straight into bright green ones that soon flickered with gold and red. I let out a soft sigh as I relaxed and whispered,“Good morning.” I feel his chest vibrate as he tightens his arms around me, answering,“Good morning. My love.”Before I can react he has pulled me up, rolled me over so that I am now lying on my back underneath him and he has settled himself between my legs. I let out a low moan as he pushes his hips forward sliding his cock slowly inside me.Pressing his lips to mine in a dominant kiss he soon increases his thrusts harder and faster, building the pleasure inside me until it is exploding inside me and I am screaming his name. As my body shakes and shudders he increases his thrusts again building the pleasure again quickly so that as I scream aga
Nathaniel keeps his thrusts at a hard but steady rhythm as Elizabeth’s body shakes and quivers in his arms Cole retracts his fangs and starts to suck filling his mouth with her addictive blood before swallowing it down.As Nathaniel feels Elizabeth’s orgasm slowly calm and then start to build again he increases his thrusts harder and faster slowly losing the steady rhythm he had set as his own release builds. Nathaniel swipes his tongue over the two puncher holes in her neck sealing them but leaving them for everyone to see.Cole and Hunter extend their fang and canine mix so that as Elizabeth screams out her release, Nathaniel howls out his release shooting jet after jet of his seed inside her, they sink their combined fangs and canines into his mark.Flooded with an extreme amount of pleasure from the combination of his remarking and the intensity of his release, Clara and Matilda extend their fang and canine mix and sink their fang and canine mix into E
Elizabeth relaxes even more and a soft moan escapes her lips as Nathaniel slides one of his hands up from where he had them resting on her lower abdomen. Skimming his hand up over her breast, up her neck, spreading his fingers as he cups her cheek from behind allowing him to move her head and deepen his kiss.Without thinking or breaking his kiss, Elizabeth lifts her hand to his cheek while turning in his arms. Nathaniel growls as his hand leaves her cheek to slide down her back and pull her tighter against his body.Getting lost in the pleasure Nathaniel takes a couple of steps forward making Elizabeth step back until her lower back is leaning against the balcony railing. Nathaniel moves his hands to her waist as he pushes his body harder against hers making a whimpered moan escape her lips.Sliding one of his hands down over her hip and her thigh until he finds the slit in the skirt of her dress, sliding his hand onto her bare skin. Elizabeth shivers and tense
As Nathaniel and Elizabeth get closer to where Blade is restrained, Elizabeth is flooded with fear even though she knows that he can’t touch her again. When the barricade of the suppression collar Graves had placed on Elizabeth was removed Clara and Matilda were filled with rage as they were hit with the memory of what was done to her.They see and feel everything that Graves, Blade and Silas have done to Elizabeth without them there for protection. As soon as Elizabeth is filled with fear Clara and Matilda push her back as they take control.As Nathaniel and Elizabeth stop in front of Blade Matilda growls over the link,“I would bite his cock and balls off for what he did to us but I don’t want that disgusting thing anywhere near my mouth…” Clara agrees with her as Nathaniel, Hunter and Cole all chuckle. Clara then lets go of Nathaniel’s hand extends her claws and sends a hard slap across Blade's face leaving four deep gashes along his ch
Elizabeth keeps her eyes on his as she nods her head. In the short time she was at the castle she had learned a lot about the running of a kingdom and that sometimes rulings and punishments had to be decided and executed even if they didn’t want to.A small smile pulls at Nathaniel’s lips as he skims them over hers and whispers,“Let’s go.”Nathaniel pulls back and steps to Elizabeth’s slide slipping her hand into the crook of his arm and then leading her out of the chambers, through the castle den, out into the courtyard and into the waiting SUVs to take them to the Pride’s main town.Once there Nathaniel helps Elizabeth out of the SUV and then leads her over and onto the makeshift stage that was erected overnight. He steps to the front and looks out over the members of the AshMane Kingdom and Prides.Nathaniel scans all the prisoners on their knees with their hands shackled behind their backs in front of him before his eyes land on Blade shackled
Asthe sparks spread across her cheek and the smell of Oakmoss, Patchouli and Vanillasurrounds her and fueled by Clara and Matilda’s desires to reconnect with their mate, all the nightmarish images and feelings from the past few days disappear as desire floods her. With their desire clouding her mind Elizabeth moves closing the small gap between their lips.As she presses her lips to his, her body moves so that she is straddling his lap with her arms around the back of his neck. Nathaniel’s arms instinctively wrap around her body and pull her in tighter against him as he deepens the kiss.Nathaniel slides his hand down her neck along her collarbone, skipping her chest to slide down her side, stopping momentarily at her hip before continuing down along her thigh, stopping at the edge of her night slip dress. As his hand sits on her bare skin, his fingers moving mindlessly the haze in Elizabeth’s mind starts to clear making her tense.The desire, the sp
Nathaniel woke first having both Hunter and Cole practically purring in his head at having their mate back safely in their arms. Cole’s fang’s tingle with wanting to taste her but Hunter growls at him,“You can’t, you saw the feeding mark. You might scare her if she wakes to your fangs embedded in her neck.”With a low hiss at Hunter, knowing that he was right and backs off. Nathaniel sighed knowing that seeing the feeding mark on her neck and with feeling the consequences of the mate bond being betrayed he knew what they had done to her and would have to work to get her to trust him again.Yes, Nathaniel, Hunter and Cole all knew that it would be them that would have to earn her trust again, after what she had been through. The feeling of betrayal hurt but after seeing his mother, father and twin sister go through it, he knew what he needed to do.Leaning over and taking a deep breath of her intoxicating scent Nathaniel sighs again as he pulls back and s
