I had wanted nothing more than to spend the morning cuddled up to my mate using our aura and touch to help her heal and recover, as everyone does once they meet. However, unfortunately, with what I was in the middle of I didn't have that luxury, so I instead spent the morning walking the castle talking to some of the warriors and serving staff and all seemed to have a good report for the Princess.I then make my way down into the kingdom’s Pride. I walk the Pride and unlike the smaller Prides, this one is like its own little town similar to some of our bigger clans and a lot of the werewolf territories.I enter a few of the stores and as with the servants and warriors within the castle they too have nothing overly bad to say about the Princess herself or the way she oversees the Pride, though a couple of her high Council members were questionable.I spoke to a few of the older members who remembered what it was like under her father and they also agreed th
I cut the link and make my way down to the floor below. I send out my senses, find what room they are in and walk up to the door. As I knock and wait Victoria tugs our link, and I open the connection.“Is there a problem, Vic?” “No, Nat. I just wanted to know, what you wanted me to do. Your mate noticed the differences in your eyes and asked about them. Did you want me to explain about you to her or did you want to do that yourself?” I think on this a moment and believe that it would probably be better coming from me, I answer her,“No, that’s fine, I will tell her.” Just as I cut the link with Victoria the young female from the day before opens the door, the giggle seems to die in her throat and her smile slips from her face as she sees me, bows her head and whispers,“Your Highness…”I smile as I ask, “Are you feeling better?”“Yes, much better, thank you. Please come in.”She bows a
I don’t miss as Kyria’s face pales and a small wave of fear comes off of her at the mention of the two Beta warriors of their Pride, however, I will have to address that a little later as I ask my next question.“Why the need for dominant female warriors? From my understanding, all female WereCats are extremely good fighters no matter what their rank.”“True. However; Our Pride isn’t your standard Pride, most Pride's are made up like a WereWolf pack, consisting of both male and female members, as you have no doubt seen within this Pride. However; unlike WereWolf packs, Pride warriors are 95% females, as they are more agile and fierce than most males of our kind. Now, Vapor-Moon Pride is classed as a warrior Pride, we specialize in the training of strong high-ranked female warriors that other Prides can acquire by trade.”“Trade? Willingly?”“Most trades are done with the agreement of the warrior as they have to relocate to the new Pride and transfer loyal
Elizabeth... I am startled when I don’t hear her soft feminine voice but his deep masculine and powerful voice behind me,“What’s going on here?”I don’t lift my head as I hear the Princess speak softly,“I was just welcoming this young cub to my kingdom…”“Why is she on her knees?”An unexpected shiver ran through my body at the low growl and hiss that seemed to accompany his now slightly aggravated tone. The Princess doesn’t seem to be fazed as she answers sternly,“Well, it seems that the Pride she was brought up in taught its members the meaning of respect and how to show it to those of higher rank…”“This is not necessary.”“Well, here it is…”A very compelling and powerful aura surrounds and then passes over me before settling on the Princess standing in front of me. Seeming to be protected by that powerful aura I feel it shimmer and hear him growl out something, again it skips over me as it makes the whole room gasp and whimper including the Princess.I then see the edge of th
Kyria and Duke walk behind Nathaniel heading to the dining room. While Kyria still tries to get her emotions under control, Duke pulls her to a stop so that she doesn’t walk into Nathaniel’s back as he stops in the dining room doorway.Kyria takes a sharp breath in as she then steps to the side and looks into the room to see what has the male in front of her stopping so suddenly. Kyria is surprised at the vastness and elegance of the room, she is even more surprised when she scans the room and her eyes land on who she believes could only be her Princess, though she is not dressed in her standard Royal attire...It isn’t until the King starts talking that Kyria realises that there is someone at the Princess's feet and it doesn’t take her long to work out that it was Elizabeth. Wanting to go to her side Kyria takes a step forward but is stopped when Duke places his hand on her arm and holds her still as he whispers,“Not yet.”Kyria listens and watches as the King releases his aura seem
Nathaniel stripped out of his casual Royal suit, folding it and placing it to the side not wanting to have to replace another one when he returned home. He then shifted, passing control over to Hunter who picked up his boxers and took off running.However, not wanting to be too far from their mate he stuck to the trees close to the castle. Hunter was surprised when he picked up her forest and ocean sent, telling him that she was now outside the castle, curious he made his way to find her.It didn't take Hunter long to spot his beautiful mate leisurely walking through the trees. Keeping his senses open, he quietly followed her not wanting to frighten her even more than he already had. As soon as she had sat on the grass, Hunter knew he should walk away, however, the pull to her was strong and he couldn’t stop his paws from moving him closer to her.As Elizabeth let out a low moan at the fragrance of the flower she picked up, Hunter dropped the boxers from his mouth and stepped even clo
Xana stands at the window in her office and watches as the King strips and shifts. She is surprised at how big his wolf seems even from here.She looks down at the atrocious attire that he had someone replace all her beautiful and comfortable Princess attire with. Though she shouldn’t have been surprised considering what she had tried and that he was also part Vampire and they were a little more conservative on their attire, not having to shift when their Vampires came forward.Letting out a long sigh, Xana turns away from the window as soon as the King disappears into the trees and walks over to her desk. She sits down and picks up the phone, punching in a few numbers and then waiting for it to be answered. It is answered on the third ring,“Your Highness.”“Neo. Return to the Den.”“I still have work here…” “I know, just return.”“As you wish.”Xana leans forward and quickly presses the receiver button allowing her to make the next call, again it is answered within three rings,“S
I wake with Elizabeth still wrapped securely within my arms, though she had turned over at some stage during our sleep as she was now lying with her back pressed hard up against my front. I take a deep breath filling my senses with her intoxicating forest and ocean scent, I let out a low groan matching Hunter’s growl and Cole’s hiss.Unable to fight it I lift my head and skim my lips along the bare skin of her neck. I smile a little when she lets out her own seemingly sleepy strangled moan, the sound going straight to my cock making it throb painfully hard.I try to ignore the throbbing of my cock as I feel the tingle of Cole’s fangs wanting to extend and lengthen. I lose the fight and they lengthen, I skim my lips up her neck to her ear where Cole whispers,“May I taste you, my love?” Herbody seems to tense though she doesn’t pull away from me, I almost miss as she whispers,“Will it hurt?”Cole hisses as he doesn't
