Lexi’s pov

“Lexi, meet Ríoghán Crinan, the king of the European vampires,” Johnathan announced and I quickly curtsied, causing the king to chuckle.

“I can see why Lennox was enthralled by you, lass. You're a unique creature. Now please give me my son's heart,” he demanded with his outstretched hand and I shook my head.

“He asked me to keep it with me. It was his last wish on this earth,” I asserted boldly and watched his blue eyes narrow.

When he tried to compel me I grinned and shook my head.

“It won't work on me, Your Highness, so if that is all I will excuse myself and retire to my bedroom. Oh Johnathan, did Jessica take Kieran with her,” I asked.

When he nodded I grinned and prepared to exit.

Just as I was about to open the door the man in sunglasses stepped in front of it. I heard the vampire king offer Johnathan twenty million dollars for the purchase of me, I assumed and I growled sourly.

The audacity of him pissed me off.

Turning around in the room I squeezed the stone in my

    Lexi’s povFollowing the King's scent, I approached his closed door tried the handle, and discovered it was locked from the inside.Stuffing the heart stone into my pants pocket I gritted my teeth feeling that perhaps keeping it was foolish and I should have given it to the stupid vampire king.Growling bitterly I began pounding on the door.I can hear Nathan shouting at me from the other end and turning to look at him I shouted, “They took Kieran!”“Hold on I am coming,” he shouted back as he came running and the door opened to Ríoghán gazing down at me.“Give him back,” I cried and saw him just grin and tell me NO.Nathan wrapped his arm around my waist and snarled aggressively at the king.“Give us back our son!”“Give me back MINE,” Ríoghán asserted and I widened my eyes understanding what he was doing.“Your son asked me, he begged me to take his heart, sir! Our son has nothing to do with this. I took Lenny's heart and I didn't want to,” I cried out.Nathan held me as I began to

    Lexi’s povWalking beside Nathan my legs felt weak and my hands were starting to shake.“Are you going to be alright,” he asked me in concern.Side-eyeing him I opened my mouth to respond but only a gasp of air came out so I closed my mouth and nodded.“I have to do this for Kieran,” I finally growled out.“I am going in with you, so don't fret, Lexi. I don't want him fucking you either,” he snarled causing me to grin slightly.“Thanks for that," I told him with a snort.We arrived at the door and Nathan knocked firmly.The door opened and Ríoghán answered looking at both of us with a snide smile.“Please come in, both of you,” he said kindly, making me eye Nathan suspiciously.“I feel that you both misunderstood what I was implying," he added as he glanced back at us both.Nathan squeezed my hand as we followed him into the sitting room.Ríoghán offered us a drink and I declined as well as Nathan.With all of us sitting in the room the king clapped his hands together and chuckled sli

    Lexi’s povI drank an entire bottle of liquor and had overindulged. My eyes were closed as I rested against the top of the bar.Suddenly feeling my cheek getting tapped I growled in irritation.Opening my one eye a crack I can see Reese glaring at me.“What,” I mumbled as I lifted my head and wiped the drool off my mouth.“I wished to ask you about what is going on, lush. Everyone downstairs is in a frenzy,” she said in exasperation.Glancing around the room I see that I'm all alone beside Reese “Where is everyone?”Reese shook her head and snorted.“The boys are downstairs with their dad and your mom in the office discussing your father and it was getting insanely loud,” she said with crazy jazz hands.My lip curled and I chuckled.“That's because the vampire king mentioned that my dad was a king,” I snickered.Putting her hands on her hips she glared at me.“Well was he?!”Shrugging I explained that I highly doubted that since I grew up in a run-down trailer and my mom lived off he

    Lexi’s pov“Do we need to attend dinner,” I asked Nathan.Hearing his chuckle I assumed that meant a yes as I rummaged through my pile of clothes.Feeling Nolan's eyes on me I looked up to see him pointing at a cream-colored dress and tilted my head.“You would look stunning in it and since you're staying the night with me tonight I can help you remove it,” he grinned. Looking over at Nathan I raised my brow.“Weren't we going to discuss our son?”Nathan nodded and said,” We are but someone wants to impregnate you.”Snorting, I rolled my eyes.“It should happen spontaneously, Nolan,” I muttered sourly.“Oh, it will be slow and subtle. I will seduce you and have you begging me to slide my big cock into your damp hole,” he growled huskily.Glaring at him with a curl of my lip I laughed.“That sounds horrendous, Nolan. Can't we just make sweet love,” I asked him with a raised brow.“Well as much time as you have been spending with Nathan I figured that you enjoyed a rough tumble in the s

    Lexi’s povClenching the stone in my palm I turned to see Nathan pushing the crib toward his bedroom.“What are you doing?” I asked him with my eyes narrowed.“Well, dear heart, I figured we can talk with the royal pains in our asses tomorrow and tonight I will watch my son so you and my brother can get your freak on,” Nathan said with a smirk.Nolan shouted excitedly, “Thanks, bro!”I laughed watching them high-five each other then squealed in laughter when Nolan lifted me around my waist.Being swung in the air I asked Nathan if he was sure we should wait to speak with the vampires.Nodding his head he huffed and glanced at me in Nolan's arms.“How about I just go to their room and inform them tonight? I will as long as you both promise to keep you moaning and groaning to a minimum so you don't wake Kieran,” he asserted.I side-eyed Nolan and smiled at him nodding.“I won't start thrusting until I hear you return,” he snickered and Nathan rolled his eyes.“Just let me get him situat

    Lexi’s povRunning up the stairs I felt my heart racing as I hurried to my bedroom.When I entered Nolan was rocking his nephew in the rocking chair and lifted his hand for the bottle.“I saw Nathan in the kitchen,” I mumbled softly and he nodded.“He woke up again and came out cursing me, just like old times,” he sighed.Shaking my head I lowered my eyes from his and slumped my shoulders.“When I get finished feeding the pup I will go through the library and see if I can find some information on how to revert a vampire compulsion. I can't stand to see you looking so distraught,” he huffed and I grinned.“It can wait until morning Nolan, but thank you for offering your assistance,” I expressed and he smiled and nodded.Oh, by the way, you're going to be a daddy too,” I added and he gave me a heart-stopping smile.“Good thing I'm practicing then huh?”I went to his side and opened my arms to take Kieran from him.“Let me finish feeding him so you can go to bed, I haven't spent much tim

    Lexi’s povAfter showering I dried myself and braided my hair as I gazed at myself in the mirror.“Did Vukas, Nathan's Lycan, speak with you at all,” I asked my wolf.“No, he was standoffish and didn't try to acknowledge me,” she whimpered.Sighing I exited the bathroom and walked past Nolan and plopped down on my mattress.Sticking his head in the room Nolan asked me if I was going to go back to sleep.Lifting my head I laughed and said, “Yeah.”“Well goodnight I am going to head to my dad's library,” he replied and my interest peaked but my exhaustion claimed me.“Wake me if you find anything pertinent,” I yawned hearing my door latch close.Turning to my side, I covered up and was soon sawing logs.When I woke the next morning I was surrounded by open books and Nolan sitting cross-legged with reading glasses perched on his nose.Rubbing my eyes I glanced over at him and grinned.“Wow, you look so distinguished in glasses,” I commented and he peered over at me and grinned.“Find any

    Lexi’s povWhen Nolan and I returned from our outing in town the mansion was full of the Alpha's guards. I waved at Freddie and he nodded his head at me but was busy so he didn't stay to chat.Sitting at the dining table I took out the purchased supplies and asked Nolan for the stone so I could begin creating a pendant.“You think your father is going to fill the passageways,” I asked Nolan.He shook his head and explained that they were useful for the werewolves and needed to remain clear in case we needed to use them.“Do you know where they lead,” I inquired curiously and he chuckled.“What I heard is that the caves run all the way to the …oh shit,” he growled.“They go to the mountain caves don't they,” I groaned and he rubbed his eyes while nodding.Johnathan, overhearing what we were talking about, shouted out to his guards to go into the passageways and cover them the entire way to the mountain.They responded with a begrudging, “Yes Alpha,” as they separated and went in diffe

    Lexi's pov We were at the dining table in Adalyn and Darius's new home finished with a superbly prepared dinner done by Darius's chef. Darius was currently out on his back porch sharing a blood bag with Olivia while my daughter sat with them. The three of them had become inseparable since my daughter's wedding to the bloodsucker. Olivia was even calling them Mom and Dad which tugged on my heartstrings and theirs as well. Kieran was running around after his brother Elliot who had matured quickly like him. They were wrestling with each other in the living room. Patting my full belly I smiled at my two mates and said, “ Our lives are better than I could have ever imagined.” “You don't have any regrets,” Nathan asked me. Pausing to think about it briefly I nodded. “Just a couple. Not finishing school and not getting the chance to rub all of this in the faces of the assholes in my old pack,’’ I sighed. Nathan's cell phone rang and he got up to take the call. “You

    Lexi’s pov Heading into Kieran's room I quietly rummaged through his dresser to find a pair of elastic waistband shorts and a t-shirt. As I went past his new toddler bed I could see my son sleeping peacefully and smiled. "He's such a good boy,” I murmured and saw his lip curl up in his sleep. Tucking the cover around him I pecked his cheek and headed silently back to my room. Entering the bathroom I see Olivia attempting to wash her hair and not having success with all the tangles. “I can comb out the knots and braid it for you if you like,” I offered and she peeked over at me and said, “Yes, please.” Getting on my knees next to the tub I told her that I would help her rinse her pretty hair. “It is like yours and my mommy's,” she commented with a frown and lowered her saddened eyes. “Were you at the fire in the caves?” Her eyes shot up to mine and froze. “How do you know?” “My father and my dear friend Lenny were staying there too,” I said softly. “That's my Po

    Lexi’s pov After checking that the upstairs mating sounds had stopped we made our way to our bedroom. Showering with both my mates I laughed at Nathan commenting on how Darius's prowess was weak compared to him and his brother. “There's two of you and only one of him so I would take your bragging down a notch,’’ I teased. Kissing each of them in the shower was thrilling for me and I savored each of them for their own uniqueness as I rubbed my bare flesh against theirs. “Well I think we should make some creaking of our own,” Nolan suggested and I grinned slightly, feeling a bit randy myself. “Let's move this party to the bed,” Nathan said while nipping my shoulder. Giggling coyly I nodded and held each of their hands as I backed up to the mattress. “Get you sweet ass in the middle and we will come up on each side of you and dry you with our tongues,’’ Nathan added as his glowing eyes traveled up my nude body I scrambled quickly to the middle and awaited them.

My throat grew tight and my eyes damp on such a special occasion.We had traveled pretty close to the waning scent of our pack's urine marks when a new scent filled the air causing my hackles to rise.“It's humans that are trespassing on Jonathan's pack lands,” Nova whined.Nudging my daughter on her side, she turn

    Lexi’s pov Going back downstairs and heading to my mate's I could see Darius's eyes following Adalyn while I presented her to Nolan.“Hello father,” she said to Nolan who was glancing at me and Darius.“Hi daughter, come here and give me a hug,” he said firmly.Nathan came to my side and said, “Darius asked us for advice on courting a female, and Nolan ripped him a new ass hole telling him that he should have allowed her to grow up normally,” he snickered.Nodding my head I glanced at Darius and saw the worry in his eyes.“The poor guy has no idea how to win his mate's heart,” Nova whined in my head.“Mates don't mean automatic love,” I muttered back to her.“Nope they'll need to discover that love themselves,” she sighed.“I'm going to take Adalyn out after dinner for her first shift and run our wolves since I'm certain that she is also a moonless shifter, like her father and me,” I announced and all eyes fell on me.Darius Cartwright looked angered and was shaking his head at me.

    Lexi’s pov “Don't laugh at the scantily clad Lycan God, Lexi,’’ Darius snickered and I giggled at him.“What is up with the barbarian outfit?”Shrugging he said he didn't have a clue but only that it covered him the same way when he shifted into his human form.“Doesn't leave much for the imagination,” I mumbled, causing him to nod.“Sköll is a notorious lady's man,” he commented, being surprised I blurted, “I can't see how. It doesn't look as if he's packing much underneath his leather.”Putting his long finger to his lips he gestured with his eyes before standing up straight and greeting the God.“Introduce me to Luna,’’ I heard a demanding voice bellow.Turning I was face to face with a furry chest that smelled like a wet dog.“Luna Lexi, this smelly fella here is Sköll the Lycan's God,’’ Darius said teasingly, irritating the huge brown-furred Lycan.“Piss off Cartwright, I'm filling in for your smitten arse,” Sköll growled.Lifting my hand in greeting Sköll lifted it to his muzzl

    Lexi’s pov “What did you see?”Nathan looked back at me and said, “They were talking with my father and when he saw me he waved his hand at me indicating that I should go, which I did.”Huffing I growled sourly and looked down at my two pups.“I want to speak with them,’’ I asserted and my mate's both told me firmly No.“Why not? They're never going to stop bothering us! Let me explain to them that I have no interest in overthrowing anyone and wish to live in peace,’’ I whined.Watching them eye each other in the front seat I saw Nolan nod. Nathan turned to me and said, ‘’If they come to our house then you can speak with them but if they don't I don't want you to try and search them out, alright?!”“Fair enough,” I agreed as Nolan pulled onto our drive and continued up to our house.“We told Lily to prepare a room for the children and she said she would but for now there are two bassinets in our bedroom and two downstairs in the living room,’’ Nathan informed me.Thanking him I giggl

    Lexi’s pov “Where is he? Lexi, hello!?” Nathan asserted, waving his hand in my face.Frozen from what Nova told me I was blanking out from Nathan's question about our son.“Kieran is with Reese playing with Mila. He stayed the night there,” I said softly.Nodding, he smiled and said, “Oh that's right, I forgot I have been so busy lately. I just wanted to introduce him to his siblings.”Yawning, I glanced over at Nolan holding his son and Darius holding Adalyn.“I'm going to sleep,’’ I mumbled on deaf ears and laid back.“Three pups is enough wolf so I can accept the Goddess's decision,’’ I told Nova with a thought.“The Moon Council is sending another vampire to check on Darius's progress,” she whined and my eyes flew open and turned to see Mister Cartwright's jaw tense.He reluctantly laid Adalyn down and ran his hand down his face.Seeing me he said, “I will be in trouble for not complying with my assignment…and will be punished.”Furrowing my brow I glanced at Nolan and Nathan.“D

    Lexi’s pov two months later Sitting at the kitchen table I was watching Darius sucking on a blood bag and grimacing at him enjoying it.“How come you can be in the sun? I've forgotten the reason,” I questioned him.Peeking at me over the plastic bag he detached his fangs and wiped off his mouth.“I'm like you Miss, a descendent of royalty and royal vampires can endure the sun,” he answered then bit at the bag again.“How are you drinking that,” I asked curiously since he normally fed in private.Removing the bag yet again he sighed.“My fangs are like tiny straws and suck up the liquid. There are two miniscule shafts, one to consume and the other to convert,” he explained and I was intrigued.“Why do you turn to ash when you die?”Darius chuckled and shook his head as he eyed me.“Didn't you learn this in your pack school?”Shaking my head I told him that I didn't graduate due to the bloodsucker's attack.”Nodding he grinned.“We turn to ash so our corpses aren't taken and examined b
