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
