ARIAIt's been a few days after my coronation as the Luna and Queen of Cosmos kingdom. Everything has been easy going and smooth so far. I was still learning a lot on how to fill the empty spaces and provide a good governance for my people and it hasn't been unchallenging. I was still yet to pick members of my court. The delay was inevitable seeing as a Luna's court has never been established. I planned to take some matters off Adrian's hands and make things easier and stress free for him, especially since he has been planning this peace treaty among the neighboring clans. We, the werewolves wanted to become one. "Luna?"I looked up at Morris, her voice sounding distant from me. I was dressed in a purple morning dress with different golden embroidery designs. My hair was braided in a french style and my lips were lined with the charcoal dust. "You hardly touched your breakfast. Is the food not to your liking again?" I looked at the table filled with different appetizing meals in a
ADRIAN"My lord, we have disturbing news." I was in a meeting with all the Alpha's of the neighboring clans. We were working on a peace treaty amongst ourselves, the werewolves. It was important to achieve this development as it took months to have it come this far. The meeting has been going on for hours, trying to sum it all down to one factor each clan was comfortable with.My study was suddenly swung open, the noise making me look up immediately at the intruder. Every subject knew not to disturb their Alpha when I was in the middle of an important meeting. It had to be terribly urgent if Gregory acted this way. His face was slightly disturbed and his eyes looked unsure as it danced with fear. His face was white and he was terribly perspirating.That's when I felt the fear seep into my being and grip my heart. Gregory wouldn't look like this if everything was alright. Something was terribly wrong. But what? The sudden realization that I wasn't unmated or mated to an uncaring Veron
ARIAEven with the pain, shooting deep in my veins i could still feel the shift in Adrian's demeanor. It was immediate and so much visible on his face. He said her name with so much disbelief, his eyes plain and his lips slightly parted. I narrowed my eyes at him and waited for angry words, a strong reaction from him regarding his former mate but Adrian was just...quiet. He looked around, as though he was looking for a way out of the room and tapped his shoes on the hard floor. Everyone was quiet as we waited to hear his words, his command to take Veronica into custody and make her answer for her crimes but he was silent. "No." After a lot of seconds passed by, this was the word he could utter to me. To the guards. This word, I didn't expect. I tried to sit up on the bed, to get a much clearer look at my mate, who just denied my claims without reason when I felt the sharp pain grip my chest again. I groaned and laid back immediately, my breathing low and puffy. "It's not possible.
ADRIAN"Adrian, look at me. Does it look like I did what she's accusing me of?" Veronica's eyes were glassy and her loud voice was softened to a low tempo. Her eyes were red and her skin was the whitest I've even seen, for the two years I've been with her. I am a happy man. I now had the most beautiful mate that blended well with my characters and desires. Most of all, I was going to be a father. I remember clearly, with Veronica, I crossed out the probability of having a pup soon. Veronica didn't want to be "fat and ugly" yet. She wanted us to wait, hence the reason she drank the bitter herbs every morning after I've been with her after a night of passion. Has it ever been a night of passion with her? More like I was desperate for a release. Anything to make my heavy cock soften. Most times I had to arrive at my pinnacle myself while she laid on the bed, unmoving, waiting for me to finish. But with Aria, I now know what it feels like to have a female. I am now complete and whole. And
ARIAONE WEEK LATER"My Queen. Please calm down." There was no way in hell I would calm down. No. I couldn't take this, not at all. Not after hearing what Adrian has done yet again. He had the nerve to deny my claims and then let Veronica go scott free? He couldn't do anything to her for what she did to me? Why was she residing in this palace? I am the queen of this kingdom, not she and I have the right to have my peace and sanity. The evil witch tried to kill me and Adrian does nothing? I felt my heart ache at the sadness happening in my life,. My own mate, does nothing for my own safety? What was happening? Was she slowly putting him under a spell? I just couldn't wrap my head around the situation but I had a permanent solution. Banishing her out of this kingdom. My chest still hurt from the healing wound but I was healing fast. Fast enough to do this right now. Seven nights ago, Adrian had the nerve of lying to my face. He had the guts to tell me he dealt with her and today I f
ARIA.Words couldn't express how I felt, am feeling right now. Where did I go wrong? What did I miss? Adrian was warming back to her? I am his real mate, through thick and thin so what was the problem? I knew going on this part wasn't going to be all smooth and speedy but not something like this. Something as embarrassing like this. I couldn't stop the warm tears from rolling down my cheeks. I was useless then. He saw me as nothing. Weren't Alpha's supposed to be protective of their mates? Why is Adrian different, protecting Veronica from his mate instead of protecting his mate from Veronica?"Aria."I didn't want to hear his voice. I didn't want him close to me. I cringed from his voice and increased my steps, walking to the sanctity of my bed room. "Aria." He called again, his thick voice sounding desperate. Now he sounds desperate? My hands shook as I remembered the sick smile on Veronica's face when Adrian gave out his firm order. She wasn't surprised by his words. This was why
ADRIAN I watched helplessly as everything slipped out of my control. One minute I had everything in my palms and the next, the power wasn't mine anymore. The anger that had built up in my chest was too toxic to keep. I roared and swiped the contents on my study table, icluding the lit candle that glowed in the dark. The orange flame kissed the carpet and in a second, it breathed it's flame to it and came to life. I watched as the carpet burnt rapidly, my mind, a thousand miles away. Dull voices sounded in my ear before the guards apleared in my eyesight. They stumped on the fast burning flame with their shoes a few times before it became dark. I heard sound of rustling before the study lit with a bright orange light from the torch at the far end of my study, adjacent to the doors. I didn't look up to the guards, neither did i say a word to them. I wordlessly left the study room, my steps weak and faltering. I didn't know when it got to this stage. It was all my fault honestly.
ADRIANFuck it i was horny. So horny I couldn't sleep. I sighed out and positioned myself in the center of my bed, my back against the comfortable covers and stared down at my angry cock, shoiting upwards, against my muscular stomach. I always take pride in sleeping naked but today, the cold against my bare skin did nothing but arouse me more.It was still very much in the middle of the night and i wasn't Aria's best person right now but i still needed her softness for my relief. I groaned as my cock jerked, shiny white liquid leaking out of the tip at just the mere thought of her. I would have to get my relief myself then, seeing as my mate wasn't in my bed nor arms. It was as though Aria disconnected herself from me these past few days. How could I explain to her that everything was for her? How could I tell her Veronica had poisoned her with the rarest of poisons, which was slowly manifesting itself in her being without her knowledge? A poison whose antidote was very rare to come
THREE YEARS LATERThe door opened without warning and all of us looked up at the rude intrusion. We were having a lovely get together. Finally after years, Morris graced the Cosmos kingdom with her appearance but of course, she was here with Maddock and her pup. Right now, we were having a lovely breakfast on the balcony, takng tea and enjoying different flavours of cookies, having fun, sharing stories. The twins governess had a very angry expression on her face. Her white gown was stained with what appeared to be various stains of liquid, maybe tea or pomegranate juice? I sighed out and placed my head in my gummy hands. Good heavens what did they do this time? I was even almost afraid to ask. This was my what, third governess this early year? Everyone knew about the twins reputation. Some experienced governess straight up declined and asked for indulgence. It was almost difficult to get my children a governess because of their escapades."Not again." I groaned lowly. There was so mu
ARIAEverything happened in a rush. One minute I was laying down completely satisfied with a smile on my face and the next I was surrounded by multiple maids with towels in their hands. Adrian lifted me off the bed while the white sheets were removed and replaced with disposable ones. All through these months, at first, I was excited for the pup that grew in me, then I became impatient with it and the heaviness and now that it was finally time, my body shivered with fear. This was real. I was going to give birth. Now. I groaned and twisted in pain. This wasn't like the menstrual cramps that occured during every moon blood flow. This was far worse. It started like a normal pain, just cramps before my lower abdomen became achy and the cramps increased with time. I screamed so loud, my head was everywhere. This was unexpected. I groaned and writhed from Adrian's hold."Its best you let her walk." It was Ferris's voice but I was yet to see her. Or maybe I saw her but hardly knew it was h
ARIASEVEN MONTHS LATER It's been several moons of bliss. Cosmos kingdom has been molded into a kingdom we have always dreamt of. The castle walls were renovated, we had more guards, more successes, refined maids. We joined forces with the lycans some moons ago so we had some lycan men in our lands and some of our men found their own peace and happiness in the Kingdom of Ver. As destiny would have it, some of our men were mated to Lycan females and vice versa. We had formed a strong bond and a really good ally. I had formed my own cabinet as Luna and took some of the matters off Adrian's desk and everything went smoothly as it was supposed to. Not of recent though, all I did these days was sit by the window, enjoy the fresh air and scenery."Luna, do you need anything else?" It was Francis, the old man's son. He has been with us for about six moons now. He was trained first before I chose him as my personal guard. He sure did look like his father, just a better and stronger version
ARIA"My Queen, you need to wake up." I rolled between the sheets and peeked one eye open. The room was bright, had too much sunlight . I closed my eyes immediately and snuggled more into the covers to sleep some more but that voice still spoke, loudly this time. "Aria. You need to eat. You've been in bed all day." I groaned at the intrusion and opened my eyes at its full length this time. Sure enough, the curtains were drawn back and the room was filled with the sun rays, bright and hot. Probably afternoon. My eyes landed at Ferris and yes, she looked liked trouble, with her hands on her waist and a towel tied around her waist. The maids were behind her, each looking down at what they held in their hands, towels. Ferris stood in front of them, her eyes narrowed to slithers at me. I giggled and stretched my body lightly, groaning loudly as I did. My whole muscles protested and ached at the action. I stilled as the events of yesterday night came flooding through my head. Indeed ye
ARIAI moaned out my orgasm weakly , my body shaking and my eyes becoming foggy. This was the what? Fifth orgasm I was experiencing? Adrian never stopped for a moment to even take a breath. He fucked me like a starved Alpha that has just been released from its confines andd he kept taking and taking from any part thag he could. He latched his mouth on my left breasts and sucked on my pink rosy nipple. I arched my back weakly, my nails digging hard into his shoulders. All this felt so good. Adrians cock was still in me, his cum leaking out of me, staining the sheets as he sucked my breasts and massaged the other with his hand. He groaned and pressed in deeper into me, his cock becoming alive. "I can't stop, Aria. I can't...I want more." He groaned as he plunged deeper with his semi erected cock inside me. I writhed and wound my legs around him with difficulty, the pain shooting down my legs but I could bare it, Adrian was much deeper this way. Adrian was pounding into me in no time
ARIAI don't know how Adrian managed to calm me down just enough for the mating ceremony to take place. No, I didn't get to suck his cock. A loud knock had interrupted our sacred moments and we had to get ready for the mating. It was like a beast was unleashed and it now had to be calmed down. I found out that I wasn't ready for whatever it is, the mating ceremony. I wanted to lay in bed all day with Adrian's cock in my mouth while I rode out multiple orgasms till I was all dried up. In my opinion, I never accepted his rejection and even though I felt the intense pain of separation, I don't think it was to the maximum but Adrian remained thick in his decision and so did the minister apparently. The minister advised for another mating ceremony and another marking. At this time, I had a lot of Adrian's mark on my neck. I looked at the new minister with annoyance as he readied the bowls and sterilized his knife. Adrian stood beside me, his arm around my back in support, one I didn't n
ARIAThe physician gently proded my stomach in examination. He was at it for several seconds now. Even though Ferris had assured me I was still with child, I held my breath and still waited for his confirmation. I watched as he scrunched his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes on my healing branded mark before he looked up at me. His fore and middle finger pinned down on my arm for seconds before he smiled brightly at me. The answer was confirmed. I looked at Adrian immediately, who stood proud and tall with his feet apart in a different shirt than he was earlier. He appeared to be fancily dressed in his tight black breeches and brown boots. His eyes were dark as it caressed down my naked skin. That look, I knew too well. One of longing and need. "Congratulations Alpha Adrian. The Luna is with child." The physician lifted his hands and nodded his head with courage, that same bright smile still on his face. "Cosmos, shall be having an heir in due time, soon, I believe."Adrian had a very p
ARIAI sat on the bed with my feet dangling by the side, my palms caressing the sheets whike my eyes looked around the chambers as I patiently waited for Adrian with a beating heart. I wondered how he would react to my injuries. Some rumors, I heard, long ago, that Alpha's don't appreciate women with scars. Is that why Adrian wasn't by my side when I awoke? No one cared? I sighed. All good things, I hoped. I looked down at my flat stomach and lightly touched some parts. A gloomy feeling clouded me. I knew I had lost my baby. The branding, the stiches, the hard labor, the weakness and hunger, no. My pup was long gone. Even though I didn't recall any bleeding, I ruled that it was probably a memory I couldn't recall. My heart twisted in pain. I craved for a child, desperately. I wanted to birth Adrian a pup, a male, give him security that his line shall continue but somehow, I keep loosing my unborn pups. I just got to know about the pregnancy for a short while and I secretly was grat
ADRIAN"My lord. The clan head awaits for your arrival." Gregory's voice sounded farther than he was to me. My head was clouded with thoughts. Even as I held the pen loosely around my forefinger, I had barely gotten anything done this entire morning. My right palm cupped my cheeks as I stared into space. I had been thinking about Aria. It's been a fucking week and there was no improvement from her. This wait was the most difficult thing I had ever done. Being as impatient as I was, a week ago, I held the new physician by his collar, dragged him to my chambers and demanded he give me an update about her health while holding a dagger at his side. I was that desperate. The poor man had shivered in fear at my obvious act of monstrosity before raising his hands up to his face and begged for mercy. It took several minutes for the shit head to calm down before he took a good look at her. He didn't give me the news I wanted but at least I got relief. The physician confirmed her pregnancy w
