This book is coming to a close soon. However, there will be a sequel called "Enchanted Dezantrea"
EMMA We had quite a large group going with us today, but Barachiel was already aware of it and assured us that there would be no problems. I was not naive enough to think everything changed overnight, so to speak, but I did know that there was positive change already taking place. Here was to hoping that we had a good trip. “Ready?” I asked as I looked around the group. Everyone nodded their heads eagerly. I could not help but chuckle at their enthusiasm. I opened the portal, and we all stepped through it. I heard the pups gasp, and it warmed my heart. I loved how excited they got with every new experience. The guards looked surprised with our large group, so I left them and took my mates up with me to talk to the guards just incase they were hostile like before. “Commander Valecostina,” the guard on the right said. “At ease. Actually, it is Venscothi. That’s my birth name,” I said with a small smile to set their nerves at ease. They both nodded in understanding before opening th
EMMA Barachiel came over to me when he showed up. The Commanders still had not arrived, but everyone was relaxing and eating some food. Nae was showing Ethan and Brian all the cool things that our place had. He leaned into my ear and whispered, “I need to speak to you and your mates in private right now.” The urgency in his voice chilled me. I turned around and linked our mates to follow us. There was one place I knew for certain that it would be completely safe to talk freely, so I led them into my office. “This office is completely soundproofed. What’s going on?” I asked him. Barachiel looked very distressed which was something I had yet to see from him over the centuries we fought alongside one another. He was always the epitome of calm and controlled. “Madelina was not alone in dealing with the Nokaura. She did not have all the names, but she did mention that one of them had to be higher up in rank. Those she did name were actually the ones who became her guards like Richard.
EMMA “I have a special guest coming to train with us today,” Q said with a devious glint in his eyes. I was not certain if I should be concerned about his intention or not. Q was a very mischievous person who loved to mess with people. “Who would that be?” I asked. He chuckled and zipped his lips. I set him with my best no-nonsense glare, but he saw right through it. I had a soft spot for the big guy, and he knew it. Q turned to the door as a woman stepped through. Who was this? She was as tall as Xander and had thick muscles that showed her strength. Her brown hair was styled in small box braids, but her eyes gave away her identity. They were the same seafoam color as Q’s. “Princess, it is my honor to finally meet you. My name is Leticia,” she said, bowing her head to me. “It’s my honor to meet you, Leticia. If you punch your brother in the arm, you can call me Emma,” I said with a smirk as I looked at Q. She did not even hesitate as she turned around and punched him really ha
EMMA When I was a pup, I believed in fairytales because there was something incredible about the impossible becoming possible. There were no rules because even the most outrageous outcome could become reality. None of my lives had ever been easy. There was a lot of pain, heartache, and helplessness woven into the threads of each one. With every victory as a Gaisreen, there were many failures that I also had to face. It was not just Pelsent that I felt helpless to the Nokaura. They kept me and tortured me each time. I did not care about what they did to me because it did not matter. What mattered was the torture I had to witness with their other prisoners. Nokaura were the worst evil this world had ever seen. It felt like an impossible task to destroy them, but we could never give up the fight. It was our duty to ensure that everyone is protected from them. This was why it was my duty to defeat Asry. I would one way or another. He could never be allowed to survive. We decided on lea
KAI Things had been going really well with training lately. Zane and Leonidas were both impressed with my progress. I learned how to use the fire both defensively and offensively like Doll had been able to in the beginning. I also learned how to intentionally direct it outwards. Today I had been working on how to intensify the heat index of the fire like Doll had done during her last fear. I loved being able to wield magic. It was unlike anything else I had ever experienced. I also had two great mentors. It made me feel like I was actively able to contribute something positive towards our goal of taking on Asry. “Kaiseus,” Leticia shouted out to me as she ran into the room. She was breathing heavy and looked very freaked out. “What?” I asked. My stomach dropped because she was working with Doll. “She needs you. We were working like normal. Q asked her to describe something about the Nokaura, and it was like a switch flipped. We cannot get through to her,” she said quickly. She to
EMMA My mates had always been the best gifts I had ever been given in life. They were everything that I could ever want and everything I could not live without. They saved me time and again, and I was incredibly blessed to have them by my side and loving me with all of their hearts. Early scared me tremendously. We were working on verbal commands because they were incredibly useful. Leticia and Q were both ecstatic with how well I was utilizing them. Q simply asked if Nokaura were able to control my body instead of only restraining me. That question led to the memory of my first capture becoming crystal clear. There were many things from my past lives that I wished I could just forget. However, that was not how things worked because that would make life too easy. Q felt horrible about it because I knew him well enough to know that he was very protective of me. He made a great big brother. I pulled him aside after supper to thank him for always watching out for me. I made sure to ex
EMMA The slumber party went over really well. Everyone enjoyed the chance to just hang out with our very large family. Brody was very sad when Nata had to leave, but she promised him that she would see him again. That perked him right up. Today was planning day. Barachiel, Kestian, Py, and their mates were coming to help out as well. I was happy with that because they would be great to bounce ideas off for Nae and me. I had been contemplating some sigils that everyone could benefit from. Barachiel was an absolute badass when it came to helping me design and modify sigils. I pushed a large coffee cart into the War Room while my boys brought in some breakfast for everyone who would be present. We all needed fuel, and coffee was the best kind there was. I chuckled as I looked around the room because everyone perked up when they saw their morning refreshments. We passed out the coffees to everyone and put platters of donuts and muffins along the table. “Hey, Brody. What are you doing
EMMA “You ready, Brody?” I asked. He nodded, so we opened the door to the bakery. Today was a special day. It was a surprise baby shower for Bellamy. We all put a lot of time and effort into making sure today would be perfect for Rachel and Ezra because they deserved it so very much. Brody and I were coming to get the cake, grab the special gifts that we ordered, and make sure everything was all set. Brody came along because he loved seeing all the magic in Aedrul but also since he could see beyond the magic. That and he was the perfect little helper. Phoenix, Q, and a few of the Guard accompanied us. It reassured Papa that we would be safe while also reassuring me that they would be able to help in case Lenora decided to be an idiotic bitch. “Welcome Princess and everyone. It is great to see you again,” Leanza greeted us. Leanza was one of the stylists who came out to help for the Luna Ceremony. She worked both as a stylist and owned her own bakery. It was a no-brainer on who to
