Once Nathaniel had watched Victoria drive away with his mate surrounded by a full team of his elite warriors, he pushed his personal feelings aside just as his father had taught him and swapped into what his father had aquatically named 'The Official Royal Mode'.Nathaniel didn’t bother to grace Princess Xana with another audience after the meeting with her High Council, knowing that he needed to collect more information before anything else could be done.However; Nathaniel mind-links two of his elite warriors who specialise in infiltration and information gathering and assigns them to remain in the Ashmane kingdom to be his eyes and ears while he continues his investigation and visits to the remaining Prides.Nathaniel doesn't wait as he opens his links with Noah, Kevin, Julian and the rest of his elite warriors, "Moving out in 10!" Nathaniel then cuts the links, enters the castle walks up to the guest room, grabs his travel bag and returns to the front entrance. He walks over to
Andy groans as he fights off the darkness, places his hand on his head and opens his eyes. He slowly sits up wondering what the hell just happened as he scans the area. His eyes land on two of his team members who are lying on the ground close by.Andy shakes his head and slowly gets to his feet doing a full scan of the area surrounding him, catching a glimpse of another flash of white light before it disappears. The flash of light making a wave of anger go through him as his memory returns and he only sees the three destroyed SUVs when there should have been four. He lets out a low growl when he realises that the missing SUV is the one they were after.Andy ignores the aching in his body and moves quickly, shifting into his cheetah, Brutus allowing him to investigate and search the wreckage for any clues. Brutus uses his senses slowly making his way around the carnage until he circled where the final SUV had originally landed. Brutus stops as he catches the scen
I wasn’t really needed on this trip with Nathaniel and the others, however, I was always willing to help and the calming spells I used on Hunter and Cole proved to be helpful and then the protection spell Nathaniel asked me to place on the SUV that was taking our Queen back to the Kingdom I was more than happy to oblige.I was a little exhausted as I continued to travel in the background, the help that Elder Chi gave me to help me connect to my Romeo had me sleeping but not as our encounters within our dreams were becoming more and more heated.He still won’t talk to me even though I can feel the deep want and need within him, I also feel his underlying fear that once he starts talking to me I will not be real and that I will not only disappear but it will prove that all this is just a dream. Elder Chi did give me one warning and that was to be careful because if the desire within the dreamworld proved greater to both more than the reality then there was a possibility of becoming tr
I watch Carrie cringe, shrug off Lacey’s arm, pick up the tray and walk over to Beta Karl. He steps aside and allows her to move past him, however, I don’t miss that she tenses even more when he places his hand at the base of her neck and walks with her away from the kitchen.Wanting to know exactly what he had in store for the Omega, though from Lacey's comments before Carrie followed him, it wasn't hard to work out what was going to happen. I walk into, through and out the other door of the kitchen following them. As I follow them I open my link with Julian,“Julian. We may have a big problem within this Pride.” “What have you found?” “I think all the females here including the Mane are being abused.” Julian goes quiet and I continue to follow the Beta and the Omega, I slow my pace behind them when they reach a hall that is full of doors. Carrie stops in front of one of the doors, as Karl steps to the side and then slightly in front of her to open the door.Carrie seems reluctant
So knowing I had to stall though like I said to Julian I could kill them both but I won’t for now unless they give me no other choice. Steeling myself, I take a deep breath even though it hurts, straighten and pull back from him a little so that he is only just touching me. I then stamp my foot on his, step back a little more and throw a punch at his jaw.He lets me go and stumbles backward a little, I then turn just in time to dodge around Karl’s arm as he tries to wrap it around my waist from behind. As my movement stops I am standing in front of Carrie as Karl ends up standing next to the other male, he smirks and chuckles,“Oh, how I love a female with fight…”The other male now recovered from my jab to his jaw makes a show of lowering his hand and rearranging himself as he growls,“Goddess she is making me even harder with that defiance shining in her eyes…”To make sure that any damage I
I step around Nathaniel and up next to the Mane who looks at me with what seems to be pleading eyes, begging me not to do what I was about to do. I feel my magick stir within me as I step slightly away from Mane Aya and chant,“Earth, Air, Fire, and WaterElements aid me now.Cleans this space,Show what’s unseen,Let it be revealed,For all to see.” I continue to repeat this until the air around me seems to shimmer, shatter and then disappear. I then hear a deep growl come from behind me as the sound of flesh meeting flesh, soft screams of pain and whimpers of fear fill the air around us.I watch as Nathaniel scans the cells closest to us, I follow his gaze and put my hand to my mouth to stop the bile that wanted out at the sight of a different Beta male holding a female to the floor as he pounded his cock into her hard and fast.I look away closing my eyes for just a moment before they snap open at the power I feel coming from Nathaniel. My hands go to my head as I feel him finally
I know that something happened to Victoria’s convoy heading back to the castle as I had felt Elizabeth’s fear come down the mate bond, however, other than that she didn’t seem to be hurt and her life tether to me as both her mate and King hadn’t even flickered.So, as much as I wanted to abandon what I was doing and race to her side, I knew that Victoria could handle anything and once Griffin got to Victoria’s side he would make sure that they were okay. They would let me know if it was serious.Pushing the personal stuff aside, I walk up to the Mane of the WildPaw Pride. I listen as she introduces herself and then invites us inside. Hunter could tell that Aya was very young to hold the position of Mane, though he didn’t know as of yet why she had taken over the leader role so young. Something to inquire about as the meeting progressed.Hunter was on full alert, as was Cole when Savannah opened our link.“Something isn’t right here, Nat.” I nod my head slightly toward Savannah, as ev
Savannah was trained not only by Julian and Victoria but also by Phoenix and Noah, so even though it only took us a few minutes to get down here, those males should be unconscious by now.Julian and I approach the door but we don’t enter, we just stand there and watch. I feel Aya step up behind me and suck in a shocked breath before whispering in a slight panic.“Aren’t you going to help her, Your Highness?”A smile pulls at my lips as I watch Savannah move, wanting Aya to see Savannah’s self-confidence and that she didn’t need my help, I say. “Hey, Sav. Do you need any help?”“No thanks, I have this…”I frown as she answers me, allowing her attention to waver just a little and allowing him to make contact with her cheek. Hunter and Cole push to the front a little, wanting to help, however; they know that they can’t interfere, as we watch her get back to her feet.I missed what he had said to her but I chuckle at her interesting description of his maleness and the fact that he won’t
