Vampires hunt and kill with no respect for the secret of the supernatural, causing chaos and destruction, bringing the attention of humans and other supernatural species. Needing order in the Vampire world four young Pure Blooded Vampire brothers, Sargon, Orion, Vladimir and Corbin King, rise above all others, they work their way across the land with cutthroat fierceness, using a cruel viciousness bordering on a barbaric approach they restore order and became the first Vampire Kings of Kings.
After a few centuries of protecting the Vampires, other supernaturals and the secret that is their existence, each of the brothers took a mate, creating their own bloodlines while still bowing to the oldest; the Royal King Bloodline,
Sargon King - being the oldest carried on the Pure Royal King Bloodline, the bloodline to only mate with a Pure Blooded, as according to Vampire Royal Law - Recently changed allowing the current King - Nathaniel
Orion King - mates with a human servant, creating the Deimos Royal Bloodline. Then takes a chosen mate but couldn’t have any other children.
Vladimir King - takes a chosen high noble, Pure Blooded vampire mate creating the MoonKing Royal Bloodline
Corbin King - renounced his Royal Bloodline after mating a human turned Succubus creating the Callisto Royal Bloodline. They had 2 daughters. The final Succubus of the Pure Callisto Royal Bloodline is killed by her lover in a fit of jealousy 1200 years after the first Succubus, Eleanor, was created.
After what happened with King Corbin and his creation of the sub-species; the Succubus and how dangerous they could be if given the chance. King Sargon along with his remaining brothers and a vote from the highest kings within the supernatural order known as the Supernatural Council ruled that the inter-mating of species was forbidden and any offspring resulting from such a mating would be put to death along with the weaker entity of the couple responsible.
At the time of the ruling, Sargon heard and then met with the young, up-and-coming Lycan Prince, Erebus. After meeting him, he saw the same ruthlessness and cruelty in the young Lycan Prince as he had in himself at the same age.
However, Erebus still had to prove himself worthy of the position King Sargon was about to offer him. It didn't take long for Prince Erebus to prove himself. King Sargon smirked, knowing that he was right in his assessment of the Lycan Prince. Sargon, then with the approval of the Supernatural Council, enlisted the services of young Erebus to enforce Sargon’s new Royal Law.
Even after his ascension to King, Erebus continued his oversight of inter-species-mating. Unfortunately, the power of being King and the power that enforcing that law provides goes to Erebus’s head, and he eventually sees himself as something close to the Moon Goddess.
Causing a large rift of hate and an endless war between the WereWolves and the Vampires.
----------CORONATION - Nathaniel
“I Prince Nathaniel King do solemnly and sincerely in the presence of our Moon Goddess profess, testify, and declare that I am faithful and that I will, according to the true intent of the enactments which secure the succession to the Throne, uphold and maintain the said enactments to the best of my powers according to law. Goddess of compassion and mercy, I serve thee, I give grace that I may find in thy service perfect freedom and in that freedom knowledge of thy truth. Grant that I may be a blessing to all thy children, that together we may discover the ways of gentleness and be led into the paths of peace.“
I hold my flinch as my father slams the Royal Family sword down into the floor next to us. He then removes the Kings crown from his head, steps closer and places it on mine as he says,
“With the placement of the Vampire Royal Crown on your head, you accept all responsibility and take the mantle of Vampire King.”
I shiver as the crown touches my head and a wave of new power flows through me, pulling Cole to the front.
>COLE...
I then stand, wrap my hand around the Royal Family sword, pull it free, lie it over my open palm and bow to my father, who returns the bow of respect.
I then turn and face the crowd in front of me, still holding the sword flat for a moment before I slide it along my palm, allowing my blood to coat the blade. Then, as my blood soaks into the blade, adding mine to the ancient Kings before me, I let out a loud hiss and lift the sword to the sky. My hiss is soon joined by more hisses, howls, whistles and cheers.
I lower the sword to my side and look over to the side in surprise as I see King Noah approach. I follow his movements so that when he stops in the same spot, my father is just standing in. I am facing him with my back once again to the crowd.
I frown a little, knowing that they can’t see me. However, Noah has a small smirk pulling at his lips and with me being so close, I was the only one to see it. Not yet understanding but seeming to know I return to my knee in front of him, I feel as Hunter pushes me back and takes total control.
>HUNTER...
I keep my head bowed as a low growl rumbles through my chest at the feel of the Royal aura coming off of Noah and even though I know he isn’t, it feels like he is challenging me as he then looks over my head and growls,
“I am King Alpha Tobias of the Royal MoonCrown Kingdom… I am the nominated High King of the WereShifters, as my father was before me and his father was before him. We have waited for over two thousand years for the true Shifter King to return.”
The rumble in my chest dies, as even though I had felt it the moment I had shifted during the war, I hadn’t really grasped what that meant. I keep my head bowed as he then continues.
“I hereby with the WereShifter Kings present as witnesses tonight, I ask you, Hunter King, do you accept the gift and burden that the Moon Goddess has bestowed upon you?”
I smile as I feel the Full Blood Moon shining down on my back, and what feels like a soft feminine hand on my shoulder. I don’t fight the shift as I start to shift and growl,
“I Hunter King accept!”
As the shift completes, I raise my head to the Full Blood Moon and let out a long, loud and powerful,
“HOWL!”
I shiver a little as I feel even more power slide through me as each King lifts their head in a howl or roar to sanction their agreement and support. When my howl finally lowers and ends, my shift starts to recede and for the first time, my Royal Suit is still intact.
My father and Noah then stepped up either side of me and said,
“We present to you KING NATHANIEL HUNTER COLE LIAM KING!”
The area is then filled with howls hisses, whistles and cheers, I smile and again lift the Royal Family sword lying it on my open palms again and hold it out in front of me toward the crowd and bow my head for a moment as I whisper,
“Moon Goddess, I sure hope you have made the right choice with me…”
I smile as I feel that same feminine hand on my shoulder once more and somehow know that she believes in me. I lift my head as I lower the sword and say.
“This is a celebration. Have fun…”
I take a step back, allowing my father and Noah to step slightly in front and face me, as soon as I hand my father the family sword, he excuses himself, leaving me with Noah, who smiles and says,
“Come, I’ll introduce you to the High WereShifter Council…”
Whoosh… Crack… Smack… Whoosh… Crack… Smack… Drip… Whoosh… Crack… Smack… Drip… Whoosh… Crack… Smack… SCREAM!… I tried to hold in that scream but as the iron-infused leather whip that’s now laced with a weak version of our Prides Deaths Door serum lashed at my sore, bloody and damaged back, cutting into more of my skin as Graves pulled it back this time, I just couldn’t.He always dips the whip into the Deaths Door serum for the last two lashes knowing that if I haven’t screamed yet I soon will. The Deaths Door serum is just that, it is a mix of Azalea, lily, Mistletoe, Rhododendron and Sago Palm which are some of the most deadly natural plants to WereCats.At full strength it’s very painful, extremely deadly and only used as a last resort, however, a diluted version is used to coat some of the punishment whips just to add a little more burn and a little more pain. The antidote is usually not needed but given a few hours after punishment has been served just to ingrain the lesson
ElizabethFlashback cont…I whimper again as he pushes me chest-first against the punishment pole. He let go of my hair only long enough to grab my wrists, force them above my head and connect the iron shackles. I scream as the iron burns and the metal digs into my skin as he tightens them making sure that I can’t slip my hands free.He then steps back and to the side. Tears stream down my cheeks as I turn my head to watch as Mane Beatrice walks out of the Den, freshly changed with Nala and Chloe and the entire Pride walking behind her. Again I tried to say that I was sorry, however, she didn’t want to hear it as she whistled calling the rest of the Pride to the centre of the village. Once everyone is encircled around the village centre she looks at Duke and says, “Expose her back.” Duke’s stern stone face mask cracks just a little as he looks into my eyes. Being the only Father figure I have known, I know that Duke doesn’t want to do as she says as he steps up behind me once more
Elizabeth We move slowly through the basement and into the small side room that is my sleeping quarters. It really wasn’t a very big room, there was just enough room for a small military-style cot up against one wall, a small trunk that sat at the end of the cot which is where I could keep what little clothes I owned and in the corner on the other side was a very sorry excuse for a bathroom. There was a toilet and a small open shower which only ever had cold water even though the hot water service thingy was just outside the door on the other side of the basement, I just wasn’t allowed the luxury of hot water. I’m sure that this room was originally used as a clean-up after the warriors would interrogate those who entered the territory without permission.Kyria helped me over to the shower, I stood with my hands and forehead leaning on the tiles as I nodded my head slightly telling Kyria to turn on the water. I hold in the scream but let out a whimper as the cold water hits the new w
SCARLETT It has been five years since the war against the S.D.E. and other than the vague report of Romeo being seen over the last few months life returned to as much of normal could be for us. I toss and turn as the flashes of the vision plays in front of me.Hidden within and below the mountains,Within a prison cell, a male with a whip and a sinister look in his eyes,A girl hanging from her wrists, bloody and beaten.The Shifter King's mate… She must be saved…Death, destruction, bodies and blood everywhere.It can't be avoided this time.The War of the Kings is coming...The vision then changes and becomes clearer as I walk the over the new battlefield, I fight and kill all that attack me there’s no saving them this time. I watch as the last vampire to attack me falls to the ground with her heart still in my hand. I then look around me and see Griffin, Mother, Father, Josephine and Zachary all doing the same...Fighting for their lives.The battlefield then moves and I am standi
NATHANIEL I wake and sit up from another restless sleep. I look around and sigh. I swipe my hand down my face and slip out of bed. I walk into the bathroom and use the toilet before washing my hands and splashing my face. I exit out of my bathroom through my room and over to the balcony doors.I open them and take a deep breath of the fresh air as I walk over to and lean on the railing. I look out over the castle, over the town and out past the forest to the forbidden mountains and marvel at how much things can change in just a few years.It has now been five years since the war with the S.D.E. and my father handed over the throne to me…With the wave of power that Hunter had released that night during the war, we had unintentionally announced to the world that the Lycan King had returned. Something that I now believe would have happened at the coronation with the passing of the throne, not in the middle of war had my mother not nearly diedThen when all the allies had left after the
Nathaniel With wanting to get to the bottom of the unconfirmed reports I knew that I had to make good with the WereShifter High Council, so I first went and visited all the Kings on the High Council that were at the coronation, it took a little while to show some of them that I wasn’t like the last Lycan King and that the safety, security and overall happiness of the WereShifters was what I was striving for. Once I was able to convince them of this, they each then pledged their alliance and loyalty to me, even though it was not something I made them do or was expecting however once they had, all exchanges with them then went a little more smoothly.The last three weren’t at the coronation and were proving a little hard to get a hold of, so I arranged with Noah to have them come to the King Castle under an open invitation. I was then surprised when I got a link from the front gate telling me that Noah was awaiting entry.A little confused as Noah knows he can just enter whenever he
ROMEO Once Vlad had me perform the Ancient Blood Oath, tying my life to his I could feel that not only was he indeed a Vampire Hybrid but he was of the Royal Bloodline and not just any Royal Bloodline but one of the oldest. Just like mine, only his felt more, more pure like he was one of the ancients.I stand at the edge of the small town and watch as my team finishes its job. Gianna has already been through and taken the ones that I have deemed worthy of entering into one of Kolby or Devlin’s training programs. Thanks to Vlad’s and my Royal influences and the control devices from Ajax, they haven’t had to use the crude method they used to break me.Due to this crude training, I haven’t heard or even felt anything from my human since the time I heard that female call to me. I also haven’t heard that female again, though I do have the pleasurable dreams where I am in the company of that amazing female witch, I fuck the hell out of her until she is screaming in pleasure before being pu
ROMEO Mane Nari bows her head to me as she sends a glare over towards her Alpha Warrior. No doubt he will be given a lecture once we leave. I smirk at him as I then step up to her, grab her hand and lift it to my mouth as I say.“Good, because it would be such a shame to let my King know about your little Pride here. I’m sure he could find lots for your warriors to do and I can assure you that they will not be doing much fighting unless he deems it so.”“Again, my apologies, Your Highness…”I chuckle as I step up to her and slide my hand on her cheek, I feel the shiver run through her at my touch and lean in skimming my lips on her opposite cheek as I whisper.“It’s good to see you…”I then pull back and say. “My males would like the pleasure of some of your females and you will be well compensated for their use as always.”I haven’t told Vlad about this Pride yet as she has yet to deny me or my males the females of her Pride for services, as to the disgust of the male in front of
As Nathaniel enters the hall he opens his link with Alexander.“Alex, 500 warriors at the ready. 2 of my elite teams and 5 team heads in the training field in 10.” “Immediately. Your Highness.” Nathaniel cuts the link as soon as Alexander answers him, knowing that the warriors he asked for will be standing ready and waiting when he walks onto that training field. Nathaniel heads up to his chambers, opens the outer door and walks through the entry and sitting area to his bedroom.Nathaniel has to suppress the growl that Hunter has travelling up through his chest at the impact of Elizabeth’s scent mixed with his while being combined with the lingering scent of sex within the room.Still feeling quite calm Nathaniel walks through the bedroom and into his closet, quickly changes into his Royal fighting suit before pulling out his small mission duffle bag. He stuffs in a couple of essential items of clothing before walking out of the closet and into the bathroom where he picks up his tra
Julian and Victoria made their way to the location that Savannah had given them, they stopped at a couple of Prides along the way, asking questions and doing a quick search but coming up empty making them move on to the next one.Little did they know that as they approached the Shadow-Claw Pride the next morning the SUV carrying Alpha Ken’s messenger pulled up in front of King Castle. The warrior Stan gets out of the driver's seat and walks up the front steps to where Griffin is waiting.Memphis does a quick Angel scan of the warrior in front of him before handing control back to Griffin finding nothing hostile. Griffin turns his back to the warrior as he says.“Follow me.”Without waiting for a reply Griffin heads into the castle and leads the warrior into Nathaniel’s office. As soon as the warrior has entered past Griffin, he says gruffly.“Wait here. His Highness will be with you soon.”Griffin backs out of the office and closes the door. He walks a little further down the hall and
The Shadow-Claw Pride convoy travels uneventfully toward the AshMane Kingdom Pride when Alpha Ken gets a link from one of his warrior scout teams sent out earlier that morning to set up watch.“Alpha, an unmarked Royal SUV heading our way. Instructions?” “Which Royal?” “Unsure.” “Take it out.” Ken knew that if it was heading in the opposite direction to the way they were heading then it was most likely one of the other Kingdoms and if it was unmarked as his warrior scout had reported then it must be a messenger. Everything is quiet until his SUV slows to a stop, Alpha Ken opens, steps out and approaches the scout standing off to the side.“Report.”“A messenger, he was carrying this.”The scout passes Ken the envelope, Ken takes it and looks at it closely noticing it is sealed with the other new king’s royal seal. Getting back into the SUV Ken opens the message without damaging the seal and reads over the contents.Kyria shrinks back in the seat next to him as his aura strengthens
When I had finally fought off the effects of whatever he had injected me with I instantly felt the distance and the weakness of my connection to Nathaniel as I sat up in the bed and looked around the room he had put me in.Though it wasn’t his private room in Vapor-Moon his scent was everywhere so I had no doubt that it was his. I try to feel Clara and Matilda and let out a sigh of relief when I feel Clara stretch her body under my skin and then feel Matilda slide her calming presence over my mind as I realise now she has done that many times, I just didn’t know it was her.Feeling dirty, from the short time I could feel Graves’ arms around me, I crawl off the bed and head into the bathroom for a hot shower. I try not to take too long not wanting Graves to come in and try to join me. I step out of the shower, grab the towel hanging next to the shower and dry off.I wrap the towel around me and then step close to the door, I let my hearing expand and listen into the room making sure th
Savannah gave Julian and Victoria the general area within the Forbidden Mountains where Elizabeth should be. Victoria stepped up in front of Griffin, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him down so that she could press her lips to his. Wrapping his arms tightly around her waist he whispers over their mate link. "I love you. Be careful." "I will..." Victoria paused as Griffin deepened the kiss making her lose her trail of thinking and melt into his hold and letting out a low moan. his soft chuckle in her mind brings her attention back and though she doesn't stop kissing him she slaps his chest and continues. "Watch over our King. I love you, my mate." Griffin pulls back sliding his hand onto her cheek as this time he speaks out loud,"I will protect him with my life undue to you, my mate."Feeling her mate's emotions Skylar made her way to and entered the war room and straight into Julian's arms, whispering,"Can I come with you?"He pulls her in tight against him as he
After taking a shower to remove Nala’s scent from his body after releasing the pent-up frustration that Kyria had caused by fighting back so well, he headed to his office.Ken sits down at his desk, moving some of the paper files he was looking at to the side. He opens his laptop, preparing to get some other work done. He frowns as an emergency alert flashes on the screen. He opens the alert and reads.‘Mandatory meeting :All Pride Alpha’s, and Beta’s to attend.AshMane Castle.Nightfall tomorrow.’Sitting back in his chair, Ken sighs, wondering what could be so important that it required a mandatory meeting of all high Pride males. He didn’t want to leave the Pride for more than he already had. Nala wasn’t a problem anymore as the twin cubs grew nicely in her belly, but now that he had his little Omega, he didn’t want to leave her until he had her at least submitting a little to him and had impregnated her with one of his cubs.Ken sighed as images of his little Omega dancing in the
Graves smiles as they have only been back for a few hours when he hears the commotion from the guest room in which Alpha Ken had placed Kyria. Before they arrived at the Full Blood Moon Ball, Alpha Ken had said there was a rumour that the soon-to-be Queen and her lady-in-waiting had been training under the Royal Commanders.Graves wasn’t scared of his runt fighting back. A small smile pulled at the sides of his lips as he thought about breaking his little runt again. However, even though his little runt was awake and yelling out a storm to let her out, he had yet to enter his room where he had locked her in.Smirking to himself, he looked down at the obedience collar in his hand, he had bought it a while ago knowing the spirit Elizabeth had and that he knew that she wasn’t a WereCheetah but something else he figured that he might need it to keep her loyal to him.Graves smiled as he got to his feet and made his way over to his room. His body was curled tight and his cock throbbed pain
Nathaniel sits in the conference room overlooking the forbidden mountains, only half listening to what is being said around the table in front of him. When Julian had tugged on his Royal link, Nathaniel wanted to ignore him, he didn’t want to leave the bed, didn’t want to leave his mate alone, especially after the magnificent time they had had together over the phase of the Blood Moon.However; Julian didn’t let up, he kept tugging on the Royal link until he gave Nathaniel a headache and he had no choice but to answer him. They had made a lot of progress in the Forbidden Mountains and the Prides within.Nathaniel’s mind wanders to Elizabeth. A small, soft smile touches his lips as an image of Elizabeth flashes before his eyes. He sighed inwardly, she was beyond beautiful in all three forms and Nathaniel couldn’t believe how lucky he was to have the Moon Goddess give her to him as his mate.Nathaniel lets his mind wander to the images of her rare black spotted Leopard and how it will b
When Kyria wakes, she finds it hurts to move as pain slices through her head and body. She closes her eyes to fight the tears that try to escape. Taking a deep breath, she remembers what happened and tilts her head back to take a look at her wrists. It only takes a moment for Kyria to realise that she’s on a different bed and that her wrists are bound and secured to the bedhead.With fear and panic now running through her, she ignores the pain running through her body from Alpha Ken’s beating as she struggles against her bonds. When she realises she can’t break them, she uses her bound wrists to pull herself up to huddle up against the bedhead.Once she calms herself down and can breathe a little easier, Kyria takes the chance to look around. The room is not small, but it isn’t as big as the one in the castle or the one she originally woke in. There are no windows and the walls seem to be made of clay, not brick or stone.Kyria looks down at herself and notices that the simple sundres
