Yesterday I could barely breath but Fiona and I talked for hours. I told her the truth about Maggie, how I fell for her and thought she was my other half. Fiona knew the story for the most part: she knew that Maggie was beautiful, powerful, and cheated on me with Rian after I declined the title of King. He swears she was his soulmate and I swore she was mine.
Fiona has been by my side the entire time and not once asked for Liam since I described the pull the Maggie and how it differs to the pull to Evelyn. I know she is now doubting her mate and it's my fault, but Fiona deserves her true Leanan Sidhe*.
Rian's witch is an old crone. She might have some link to the druids but she's a traditionally trained witch. No psychic abilities, just a lot of herbs, spells, and sage.
The witch comes out of the bathroom, sage, eucalyptus, and dried flowers

Evelyn's POVI have no idea how long I've been here but the longer I stay trapped in this nightmare the weaker I feel.She is waiting for my will to fight to go; for my light of hope and life to dim. That's when she will take over my body. That's when I know that I will no longer be Evelyn, I'll be a host for Maggie."You are a child of the goddess Danu. Do you know what that means? You are part faerie. Your mother spoiled our great bloodline." I hear her laughing but all I see is darkness. "You can't fight forever half-breed."But that's where she's wrong. I've learned a lot while Maggie tortures me. Danu has made herself known to me. The moon goddess has shown me favor too. My maternal ancestors of druidesses have left me for dead. I assume they are on Maggie's side. I'm tainted. Not worthy of their power.

The bright full moon is high in the sky, almost as blinding as the sun to my sensitive eyes.I hear chanting and music playing.My body feels weak, tired, and very cold.Maggie.She must have won. The chill on my back is my sign that Danu, Selene, and I lost. Her frozen heart beat out my warm one."Come home fear shidhe, Hush my child, not a whisper pass your lips,Let your heart go dreaming of your lovers kiss.Deep in your heart the merriment grows,A sliver of silver now starts to show.Follow it to the river, see the stars above and the dew below.Bask in Selene's glow, your heart filled with wild joy,&n

Jacques is a genius. This gown is all about illusions. It gives an illusion of a neckline, golden detailed tattoos down the arm on such light fabric it's hard to see even when it's on me. The dress is detailed from head to toe with Swarovski crystal embellishments, especially on the bodice. They glitter like the rainbow whenever I move or the light hits me. The bodice is tight and the rest flows out. He used lilac purple and a rose gold to give it an umbrae effect. It's absolutely stunning.I love that he picked a shade of purple. I know it's a regal color and I look good in it. My fair skin makes the top of the dress and the sleeves look like I've been dressed in only golden shimmering embroidering pieces and crystals."Jacques, this is unbelievable. I can't thank you enough." Or praise him enough, which I can tell he very much likes even though he says to stop gushing over him."You

I stand behind a red heavy dropped silk curtain waiting to be announced. My parents just made their way out and from the noise level it sounds like everyone in Manhattan is here."Try to breathe miss." Violet fans me with a copy of the invitation. I'm sweating so much I might as well not have spent 6 hours getting my hair and make-up done."I can't do this Violet." My heart is pounding in my chest like a drum. I'm sure many supernatural beings already have located me before I've entered the ball."Miss? They called your name..." that's all I hear before Violet shoved me. So unlike her!A beautiful male faery escorts me out onto the platform where the makeshift thrones have been placed. They look identical to the ones in the throne room but this place is ma

Fiona's POVI refuse to leave while my brothers and my best friend are obviously in so much pain. The ball is gorgeous and my pull towards Liam is strong but I have to stay away.Maggie. What an old bitter crime?! She spells the room, our mate bonds, curses her own bloodline - who does that?!A self-centered psychopathic bitch.We've left the ball to head to our rooms but Oisin looks so devastated. I can't leave him alone right now."Liam, why don't you go ahead of us?" He had been a few steps behind us, keeping his distance since the day Oisin left him out of the conversation in his room. He grabs my waist and pulls me into him. His scent is as intoxicating as ever and his hands gripping onto me is strong; bringing back memories and a feeling of familiarity. "Liam, not now." He growls but let's go and nods.

Evelyn's POV"Wake up!!" I hear the tapping of a walking stick on the floor.I don't remember falling asleep."Who are you?" An elderly woman sits on my bed with an ethereal presence."Comfy. You summoned me. Why are you on the floor?" She looks a little like me if I were 100 years-old. "It's rude to stare you know. I might be old and dead but I can still see clearly." I get the feeling she doesn't mean just your normal vision.Summoned? My spell worked?! "I'm sorry. I did that spell days ago. Why now? How did it work? Holyfuckingshit it worked!" I stutter excitedly as I try to collect myself. I sit myself up against the door so no one will bother us. "Thank you for being here.""Didn't have much o

When we walk out onto the patio I see my father is discussing business with his right hand man, Nyx. He's a dark faery. I've only seen him from afar, but being this close to him I can feel his pull. He immediately notices us and tries to step away but my father offers him to stay and we are formally introduced."Nyx, this is my daughter, the Princess Evelyn.""It's a pleasure to meet you." He bows. His eyes are vivid green that grow dark as he looks me up and down. His long tangled raven black hair doesn't move when he lifts his head. I want to rustle it up. His eyebrow one quirks up like he knows what I'm thinking. His tight black outfit has a lot of unnecessary zippers I want to play with, I can tell my eyes have roamed a little too much when my father clears his throat.How can he give off such a bad-boy vibe and be so beautiful?He starts to laugh. "What's so funn

We played tag in the gardens under the warm sun; it felt so freeing to play like a child. I couldn't help but feel happy around Nyx. Which made me feel guilty because I knew of 3 of men I was stringing along.He crashed into me while I was deep in thought. "Why so sad Princess? Do you need someone to cheer you up?" The grassy knoll was soft and although Nyx laid on top of me I felt like he wasn't forcing himself upon me. "Princess, you know you can tell me anything, right? I work for the royal court, my loyalty will always be to you and your family." His finger tips traced the outline of my lips. Lust was clouding my judgement and I couldn't have that. Not right now."Nyx, this has been fun. And I haven't laughed like that in years. I nearly wet myself!" I giggled and his eyes lit up. "But you know I have other suitors and 1 of them is way out in front. I don't want to lead you on, or anyone else for

Sconces lined the hallway. Meadow green carpet lined the floor and a mural of a bright sunny day was painted as far as the eye could see. It all smelled new and was a bit overwhelming to my senses. That's probably why I didn't notice the Oisin watching me from the doorway up ahead."So you've made your decision?" I jumped not realizing he was so close to me."Don't scare me like that!" He laughed which was music to my ears. Uncrossing his arms I could see he was shirtless with water dripping from his head. He must have just showered. Sweatpants perfectly fitted. They must be new; I missed the old ones that hung off of his hips from being so worn out."Evelyn, keep your thoughts about my new wardrobe to yourself." He was listening. "Fiona would be very upset to hear you don't approve of my new sweats. She got them in blue, black, grey, dark green, and whatever other color she could find." He smirked. "I do have forever with you so at

Liam and I kept each other company, laying low in the compound. Since I was "murdered" by my father he thought it best to keep me hidden.He starting feeding and sleeping regularly, getting himself back in tip-top shape to see his beloved Fiona, while I sat wondering if I was making the right decision. I had time to change my decision."Are you ready to see them?" Liam knew this wasn't going to be a happy reunion until I had mated with my true love."Oh, totally. What could go wrong?" We both laughed nervously.We heard cheering and knew that the three vampires we loved most were home.Goddesses, help me. Let me make the right decision.This had to work, Maggie couldn't win. My father couldn't win. My mother couldn

Evelyn's POVI woke up in Fiona's room, Liam was sleeping on the couch. We snuck in since I am supposed to be dead. How fucked up can one family be?It could have been hours or days since I had showered and lay my head on Fiona's side of the bed. I couldn't wait to see my best friend, my sister.Tears threatened at the corner of my eyes and as soon as one fell, the dam would crack and the hot tears wouldn't stop until there was nothing left.Sitting up with the pink sheet held up to my chest, I cried silently. The tears rolled down my cheeks leaving tracks behind for the others to follow. It wasn't until I chortled, trying to hold back my melancholic melody, that Liam woke up."Fi?" He seemed to have forgotten what was happening. It took him a moment to wake up and come back to reality. It was like watching a kid g

Rian's POVMy patience was waning. Yes, we had to get home to Liam and Evelyn but I wanted to detach the King & Queen's heads from their bodies.If not, I declare war.Oisin was following his heart, something I didn't have the ability to do. I have a clan to protect and lead. As King I can't just fall for every lass that gives me butterflies.And Evelyn gave me butterflies. She gave me hope that my eternity of existence wasn't going to be the same everyday. That life wasn't just about blood and lust.As soon as her shitty excuse for a mum came back to the land of the fog, I went to see her. I wasn't planning on falling for her. She was only a teenager. She was stunning. Which is why that step-dad of hers had to die.

Evelyn's POV"Did I take too much? Evee? Oh shit Fiona's gonna kill me. I'm such an ass."I tried to keep a straight face but Liam's accent and worry over his beloved Fiona made me giggle."WHAT IN THE BLOODY HELL! EVELYN!?!?!"It was finally night time and he was back to his old self... almost. There was still sadness in his eyes and a wariness about him."I couldn't help it! I've told you time and time again that I'm fine. I'll let you know when your feeding becomes too much. And I'll talk to Fiona."He was out of the hole pacing back and forth in his bare feet. "Like hell you will. This is between me and my mate." At the word mate he stopped and sank down, his thighs sitting back on his calves. "But maybe she isn't mine.""Liam, that's ridiculous. You know that right? I'm going to to pick my true mate and break this stupid curse that my crazy ancestor put o
Middle Land Chapter 38
Violet's POVThe King has gone mad. He sentenced both his daughter and his Queen to death by beheading.When I first heard Nyx's voice in my head, I thought I was going mad. It's not everyday someone just pops into your mind and starts talking. And it was no secret I had a crush on him so I thought maybe I'd gone crazy.He said he was going to ask Maeve to pose as the Princess and that everyone should look and act normal while all was in chaos.If only Nyx had told me that Maeve had agreed to his plan I would never have gone through with it. Once we successfully separated from the Princess, we had Maeve in a convincing glamor with what I was told was a protection spell made up of a bundle of dried herbs that she stashed away in her dress. If only they would have told me, maybe I could have saved her. I most certainly would have taken her place.Arriving at the Kings study we heard wailing and

Oisin's POVWe all sighed a breath of relief knowing Liam and Evelyn had escaped. But why would the King, her own father, want to kill her?Rian didn't care why, all he could see was red. I understood how he felt but her father just found her, it made no sense.The castle was buzzing saying the princess's execution, and apparently the Queen was in a cell in the dungeon.We needed more intel but with the guests left over from the ball fleeing from the castle it was hard to go towards the fire while everyone ran from it.'Oisin? Prince Oisin?'What the fuck? Who was talking to me telepathically?'Nyx, a friend of the Princess.''What do you want?''Only to help. We can't talk here.'I guess the question was writte

Nyx knocked on the door not soon after I had finished some soup. Knowing him he chose his time wisely. Post shower, dressing, and food so Violet wouldn't have a reason for avoiding him.Violet opened the door for him and immediately blushed. She even curtsied for him! Maeve and I tried hard not to laugh. Nyx, dressed in faded black skinny jeans and a black v-neck t-shirt, looked mouth watering as always. He bowed his head to me and to Lady Violet! It was adorable how he was doting on her."Hello Princess, I hope I'm not intruding." He made his way over to a couch in my sitting area. The night sky above us and a hint of balmy fog in the air."Never. Are you here to see me or maybe someone else..." I continued to sip at my soup with a sly knowing smile."Unfortunately neither your Highness. I'm here on behalf of the King. He requests your presence immediately." Nyx looked uncomfortable, his hands kept moving while his

I paced back and forth in my room waiting for Maggie's mom to show up. I had summoned her right after I left Oisin standing alone in the ballroom."Maybe she doesn't want anyone else here, Princess, maybe we should leave or hide." Maeve made sense."Good idea. Stay close though." I continued to pace as the day wore on. The sun was setting again and I had hoped to be able to see Oisin and Fiona tonight. Maybe with some answers or strategies.What did I do wrong? Why is she not here?"Because I have better things to do. I'm not your mum and not at your beck and call."Finally!"Why wouldn't you want to be at my beck and call?" I felt a twinge of hurt.The old woman sat on my bed the same as last time.
