I walked to the last cell, and there was a man and woman in it. I said, "Well, this must be the wolfsbane couple." Conri said, "Yes, it is. I recognize her. Nico said that she was with a guy." I said, "So, anything you would like to contribute?" The guy said, "I didn't do anything to you. Would you please let me go?" I laughed, "But you didn't try to stop her, either did you?" His face paled, "I was afraid to. She is Abel's mate!" I said, "There is one way to verify that." I asked Nyla if she has the ability to talk to her wolf, she said, "No, you still need to get momma." I called mom and asked her to come to the dungeons. When she got there, I said, "This guy is saying that she is Abel's mate." Mom said, "No, she isn't. Her wolf says she is his mate." Then my mom's eyes went wide, and she started laughing, "Dude! Did you seriously throw your mate under the bus to keep yourself alive?" My mom and I started laughing while Conri said, "You know what you did is a major offense in any

Queen Winnie said, "I have verified that it is Dahlia that he is working with. She's not good at black magic, but she knows enough to make life harder for people. I really don't think any of the others would give him the time of day. Black Magic Witches are very self-centered. If there is nothing in it for them, they have no use for it. It is very rare that they participate in anything outside of their coven. I left a message for a contact of mine in that coven, to see if they are participating, just in case." I smiled at Queen Winnie, "Thank you so much!" She said, "Did you send a couple extra lightning bolts for me?" I nodded, "Straight to the nuts." All the guys grimaced, but she smiled, "Thank you." I looked at everyone and said, "That was the guy who shot me." I heard a resounding, "OH," of understanding, then applause. I smiled wide and bowed to my audience, from my chair. We spent the next four hours planning our defense, when Queen Carina walked out. She came b
I laughed all the way to our bedroom, because Conri was in a huge rush to get there. I said, "You can take your time. I'm not going anywhere." He said, "The way things have been going lately, I'm not taking any chances." I laughed harder as we got to our room. I opened the door and he wheeled me in. I said, "I would love a shower first." I wheeled myself into the bathroom and noticed a seat in the shower. He walked behind me and said, "I know this is not easy for you. I wanted to try to make it a little easier for you." I immediately started crying quietly. I suddenly realized what a life-changing event this is. I can't help but wonder if Conri is going to bored with me. I was quiet long enough that he moved to stand in front of me. He saw my tears and immediately lifted me out of my chair and held me closely. He said, "I will never get bored with you. Stop thinking like that. You are my life; my everything. There is nothing I would rather do than take care of you... Forever." I sai
I said, "I've been wanting to do that too." I went to the dining room, and Lupe met me with my protein shake. I said, "Lupe, you deserve a huge bonus for doing this for me." I took a drink and said, "Is that white grapes?" She smiled, "It is. Do you like it?" I said, "I love it. I just never thought of it in a protein shake. It's awesome!" Conri took a sip and said, "Can I have one too, Lupe?" She smiled, "Of course, Prince Conri." She walked to the kitchen and came back just a little while later. He took a drink and said, "This is really good." We finished our breakfast and went outside. Conri was pushing my chair through the grass, when we came to a stop on a hillside. I said, "First, I should check my lightning bolt strength." I levitated a huge boulder and asked King Fenris, "Do you need pea gravel for anything?" He said, "We always need it for something." He mind linked to get a truck near where we are. I levitated the boulder over the bed of the truck and struck it with a larg
I said, "King Uther, as much I love that idea, we really don't have time for it now. If it gets really bad, I will levitate myself." He said, "You're right. We don't have time. Let's get going." Conri picked me up and King Fenris carried my chair into the castle. I said, "Where are we going? I can't fight from in here either." King Fenris said, "I have the perfect place that you can fight from and be able to see everyone." He and Conri kept carrying me up floors, until we got to the attic. He opened a hatch door, and there was a huge flat spot on the roof. I said, "This is perfect! Thank you!" Conri said, "Trina and I will stay up here, to fight alongside you and to protect you." They put me in my chair, and I immediately started noticing them coming through the woods. I started sending lightning bolts into trees, making them explode, sending shards into the hearts of the hybrids and the eyes of the wolves. There were screams of pain, then there were tons of bats, everywhere. Blaze
When Conri and I went to the dungeons, the Fae High Court wanted to come with us. As we walked down the first row of cells, we couldn't help but notice they were packed. Queen Winnie came down and said, "Hmm. Just a little overcrowded. Let's do something about that." She stomped the floor and two more rows of cells appeared. Then she teleported some of the prisoners to the new cells. I said, "Thank you, Queen Winnie. You know, you all should be thanking her too." All I got was growls in return. "Oh dear," I said, "A bunch of ingrates. No worries. You won't have to worry about space for long. So, who wants to be the first to talk? I will make sure those who talk will die the fastest. Those who remain stubborn will have slow and agonizing deaths." I looked in the cell farthest down this row. I said, "I'm going to take this cell-by-cell. If you tell me any kind of information about your pack, I will make your death quick and painless." I looked in that cell and said
I've just finished training with Conri. It has been a week since the war with Abel and his minions, and I have taken a lot of great steps since then. I got the okay to eat solid food again four days ago. We celebrated with lasagna and garlic bread. I'm looking forward to our steak dinner tonight (I had to work up to that). All week, Conri and I have been working every night experimenting with positions, and every morning sparring and coming up with new fighting techniques. I've been trying to incorporate magic where I can too. That pisses Conri off a little, because he can't defend himself against it. I always find it funny. I have also started my physical therapy three days a week. Conri absolutely refuses to leave me during it, because the therapist is a male and he has to touch me to do the stretches. I always roll my eyes at him. This particular morning, Conri and I are just finishing up our training, when Queen Nina walks in. She says, "Today is your crowning ceremony,
Conri POV When those doors opened, I had the perfect view of her. Good Goddess! I am the luckiest Lycan on Earth! She is being pushed down the aisle by Chloe, with her arm in my dad's. She looks so regal and beautiful in that color. I need to remember that color for the future. Dad pushes her up the ramp to the stage. One of the Elders, Adoff, will be performing the ceremony. When Ashina is in front of me, I smile, "simply beautiful." She mouthed the words, "Thank you." We both turned to face Adoff, and he smiled as he said, "We are gathered here to celebrate the crowning of our new Princess and I know I speak for everyone when I say it's about time." Everyone laughed for a moment, and he continued, "We are all so honored to have a bold, brave and loving Princes
Ashina's POV Conri and I are on the stage, staring out at the crowd. The ceremony went great. I do wish I could've walked down the aisle though. Maybe I will get to surprise Conri by walking down the aisle at our wedding. "Don't worry, girl, I got you," Nyla says, "There is a lot of damage and it's a lot like trying to rewire the Pentagon." I said, "Okay. I trust you. I will just do my best to keep my legs strong." As I'm finishing this thought, I hear a pop. Nyla says, "In the balcony." I look up and find him, still aiming. I neutralized him and another shooter. I refuse to let this mess up our evening. I will deal with this shit tomorrow. I finally get to change into my other dress. I go to my room with my security, my mom and Lupe. When we get there, Trina s
