The dilapidated house reeked of blood stench and it didn’t take a genius to guess what might have taken place here. Connor’s appearance from one of the salvaged rooms didn’t leave much to not guess either. “This isn’t a hunting ground,” I gritted through clenched teeth. Despite his ‘help’, I didn’t really warm up to this nocturnal creature. I knew better than to become friends with this Kind.
Connor shrugged, brushing off some dust from the left cuff of his grey coat. “What am I supposed to do? I was thirsty.” He smiled, showing his teeth where the blood of whatever he had hunted was still visible. I shot him a pointed look. I didn’t have the desire nor the time to reprimand him or argue with him.

DamianI tried very hard to concentrate on the task at hand. The car ride was anything but pleasant. A four-seater occupied by a wizard, and two elite vampires and I. The Elites spoke non-stop about palace politics and whatnot and tried to include me in their conversation, but I refrained from joining. The wizard guy, however, was tolerable, and it was a blessing to get the passenger seat.“Shouldn’t the Queen abdicate her throne?” one of them, probably Bryce, raised the question. I leaned back in the seat and trained my gaze out of the window. “Hey, why would you even think that?” the other Elite, Griffin, I think his name was, snapped. I didn’t comment and neither did the wizard guy whose name I had already forgotten. My thoughts wandered back to Celie’s texts. What on earth did she want to tell me? The jo

Myra “The weather is good today, shall we go out somewhere?” Vi suggested, sounding far too enthusiastic and pretending to be more than that. I let the cold ice of the popsicle melt into my mouth, the orangish taste leaving a sugary and tangy aftertaste, while the warm summer breeze left drops of sweat on the nape of my neck and folds of my skin. “It’s almost afternoon. Where do you want to go?” I took another bit from the popsicle. The rapidly melting ice trickled down my thumb, leaving a sticky mess in its wake. Vi pondered for a while. “Let’s visit the nearby convenience store.” I scoffed. “That’s a place to visit?” Vi made a noise at the back of her throat. She stood up suddenly making the stagnant swing sway. I listed sideways and immediately uncrossed my legs and [planned

Myra “What? He kicked out Eric?” I couldn’t believe my ears. When I walked into the training area, I caught the tail end of the conversation about Eric and Jamie shaking his head. “I didn’t realise he would take such a bad turn.” And when I asked who, they stalled for a while before Vi divulged everything in one breath. “But…why?” I was flabbergasted. Andrew didn’t seem like someone to kick someone out. Vi gave a sidelong glance towards Jamie, whose nervous gaze darted towards Brandon, who didn’t even look at me, but somewhere above my head. “We don’t know,” Jamie said all too quickly. I frowned. They won’t tell me the reason and I knew that they were fully aware of the situation. I turned around and left, deciding to go straight to Andrew. He was, unfortunately, not in the study and that woman who roamed ar

MyraIt was refreshing to watch the treeline become smaller and smaller as we approached the town. “Roll down the glass, breathe in some fresh air,” Jamie said, looking at me through the rearview mirror. I complied. The air was truly refreshing, not hot or painstakingly cold, just gentle on the skin. It carried a mixture of scents - mud, dirt, dried leaves and a faint smell of baked goods.“Put on some music,” Vi suggested from beside me, opening a bag of chips. She offered me, which I generously accepted. “Hey, give us some too.” Jamie pouted. “I packed some in your bag,” Brandon murmured. Jamie 'aww’d at that and smacked a loud kiss on his mate’s cheek. I was amused at how Brandon’s ears turned red. The man was a buff guy, scary to those who may not know him, but one fond look or a

Damian My feet carried me to the entrance before I could rethink or reevaluate my decision. I saw the surprised looks of Ryan and alpha Leo when they sensed my arrival. “What’s up?” Ryan asked, baffled. Before I could even reply, Violet was in front of me. Her lips curled into a sneer. “Leave. Now.” Her eyes flickered from their normal violets to black. My gaze darted towards my Ryan and Leo who were staring with twin expressions of astonishment. Alpha Leo regained his composure before Ryan. “Hey, speak to him respectfully, young lady,” Alpha Leo tried to intervene, but Violet didn’t pay any heed to him, staring me down with open hostility. “I was just curious. No ill wills,” I murmured, even though all I wanted then was to rush to Myra and see if she was okay. Violet’s jaw ticked. Ja
Omega Turned Royal 57. Staying Back
Damian I think Celie was actually surprised to hear my voice. “I heard what Ryan told me and I will see what I can do to stave off this suspicion. And by the way, I am calling you to tell you that the memory lock of yours isn’t working. It’s more harmful than you had imagined, so I am staying back at Ivy Ville where Myra and I think I will show my face to her.” I didn’t mean to sound accusing or annoyed at Celie’s methods but at the moment it was becoming difficult to not to do so. I heard her sigh. “Did she have any attack or something?” “She did. Apparently I left my ring at her place and I don’t even remember when which I guess triggered her memory or something else I don’t know but her friend Violet showed me the ring which Andrew had given me before.” I was basically stating what I suspec

Damian Vi shot daggers at me, warning me silently that if I turned, there would be consequences. I wanted to challenge her, but I was strangely hesitant. What if something happened to her if I turned? But then again, she would be in a bad state without me as well and wouldn’t be able to go on for much longer. “Just a patrol guard,” Violet muttered as she walked past me, giving me a sidelong glare before walking up to her friend. “Let’s go. I am starving.” I could hear the feeble protest of Myra , inquisitive as ever, but Violet herded her away. “You shouldn’t have come outside in this weather,” I heard Violet scold her mildly. “It’s not a problem,” Myra replied and soon their voices turned fainter until they were almost incoherent to my ears. I remained standing where I had been for a long time, like a coward, dumbass who couldn’t even face his
Omega Turned Royal 59. His Confession
Myra “Violet…” I mumbled tentatively but her angry gaze was not on me but on Damian. I was keenly aware of his hand on my waist, the icy touch a constant reminder of the closeness and the heated moment we just shared before getting interrupted. I felt a dull ache behind my eyes. Violet got up and yanked me hard. I would have almost collided with her and gotten free from Damian’s hold had he not been holding my waist in a vice-like grip. What happened was my forehead bumped into his chest and I was completely encircled in his hold. I tried to pull away but he didn’t let me. I couldn’t see where he was looking but it was definitely at Violet. “You are misunderstanding me,” he murmured. “Oh really? Well, where the fuck am I makin

Omega Turned Royal Epilogue
{3 years later…} [Myra] The day begins like any other. The castle is now our permanent abode. Every day hasn’t been filled with roses and peaches. There has been a number of ugly attempts of invasion, and there have been attempts at assassination, but somehow we have persevered. I make my way to my office where I know a tonne of paperwork will be waiting. But I sense my mate’s presence instead as I approach my office. As expected, he sits on one of the vacant chairs, flipping through a file. “I thought you needed to leave for another Pack/Nocturnal meeting.” I walk over to him and lean down to kiss him nonetheless. He abandons the file in favour of pulling me on his lap. I loop my arms around his neck and nip his bottom lip. “I did, but the alpha and the luna also want you to be present,” he murmurs against my lips. “Huh? Why?” I ask, pulling away. He shrugs. “I guess you are more popular and amiable than I am. At least that is what Celie reports.” I giggle at that but it i
Omega Turned Royal 89. The Role of a High King
[Celie] “Looking at him won’t change the inevitable.” I am startled by Andrew’s voice. I am not this oblivious. However, today can be exempted considering the whirlwind of stuff that happened and culminated to this day. I shoot a mild glare at him before turning back to look at the King who will probably be a memory when the sun rises next. “Go bother Alexandra,” I mutter as I lean back on the couch, a glass of deer’s blood in my hand. My taste buds have adjusted to the smell and taste miraculously. Alexandra said that it will take a while before I can go back to having ‘human’ food. I can’t wait. Instead of doing what I suggested and going to Alexandra’s room, he takes a seat beside me. My heart doesn’t flutter but I feel a knot form in my stomach. His presence has always done that. “How do you feel about your new position?” he asks. I shrug. “I’ll manage. I will give Damian a hell of a time.” I am not even kidding. That man will pay for what he did today. Only because today
Omega Turned Royal 88. An Omega Becomes a Royal
[Damian] King. The Vampire king. That is what the former King uttered while placing the crown on my head. The weight of the golden crown and the powers seep into my skin as Elder Lana reads the decree, the responsibilities that entail the role. My eyes wander to my parents who look proud, to Melissa who stands grinning and towards my werewolf friends, who smile when our gazes meet. My gaze wanders to my mate, who is more nervous than I am even if she appears to be calm. She stands poised and beautiful. Mine. Possessiveness curls around my dead heart. The echo of these emotions has increased ever since she became my mate. I wonder once again what my earlier self would have felt if he got the chance to become the King. If he was given the chance to rule with his mate? But it is rhetorical, isn’t it? Because we are the same. Myra’s eyes flicker to mine when she senses my gaze on her. Her eyes widen infinitesimally before her cheeks tint pink when she looks at the intent behind my gaz
Omega Turned Royal 87. The Nocturnal Wedding Pt 2
[Myra]Jamie fills the silence with his non-stop chatter and it is a welcoming respite. Viola sits beside me in companionable silence, occasionally replying to Jamie’s quips with her own retorts and sometimes joking. It’s a short journey and yet it feels stretched out. I feel sweat trickle down the nape of my neck, trickling down the spine. I shift a little and Viola immediately turns her attention towards me. “Should I crank up the AC?” Jamie asks, glancing at me through the rearview mirror. I nod. “That would be great.” The make-up is a water-based one so one less worry about sweating away the hard work Viola had done. Out of the blue, another image crosses my mind like a memory long-forgotten. I see the glimpse of a castle at night and realise that Damian and suddenly I realise that what is now Andrew’s mansion, used to be our temporary home centuries ago. My throat closes at the thought. My fingers flex around the handle of a clutch purse. “Are you okay? Your heart is terribly
Omega Turned Royal 86. The Nocturnal Wedding. P1
[Myra] What can an omega dream of in this Supernatural world which strictly follows hierarchy? Maybe finding a mate who is loving, or living a life without being beaten into submission. But becoming a Royal? Becoming a Queen? Maybe not. At least I did not have any such dream. I dreamt of a loving mate, a life free of slavery. But that is not what I got, not at the beginning at least. My parents left me or rather were forced to leave me behind while their lives were sucked out. “What are you thinking?” Violet asks me with a light pat on my shoulder. I blink out of my thoughts and shake my head. It’s nothing serious after all, not anymore. “I swear, this dress was probably waiting for you,” Violet mutters as she straightens whatever crease was still visible even if a little. My gaze flickers back to my reflection — the red gown goes well with my pale skin. The sweetheart neckline and the off-shoulder straps, highlight my collarbone while the cinched corset style of the top makes my
Omega Turned Royal 85. The Unwilling Candidate
[Celie]“Nope. Not happening,” I shake my head vehemently at the proposition. What the fuck is this senile bloodsucker even saying? Elder Lana or so I reckon looks me up and down like I’m some sort of untouchable and lowly being. They wouldn’t be doing that if they knew how I defeated their revered High Queen. “Why?” Damian counters on behalf of the King. I shoot him an icy look. Does he not get it? I am a newly transformed hybrid and someone who basically destroyed their mental albeit delusional image of a Queen who had never been someone they thought her to be, and he wants me to ask why. They will never accept me even if they comply with the King’s wish. “I think this girl is right, Your Highness,” Elder Elisa says primly, as if it pained her to agree with me. I scoff inwardly. Like I care, asshole. But the King shakes his head, slow but firm. “I have given my verdict. She… defeated the Queen. She saved me… I am grateful to her.” The voice is feeble but sincere, which is why I d
Omega Turned Royal 84. The Next Ruler
[Myra] I have never seen such mayhem. The covens were either hurling verbal insults at Celie or simply running to get their information across to their Elders. Celie has managed to create a barrier even though she didn’t want to. If I am not wrong, it’s not easy to get hold of Elders. Usually, they either roam different parts of the world after serving their covens or packs or clans, or they simply go incognito which simply means that one won’t get hold of them until they want to. Some still stay back and act as the advisor or are simply there as a helping hand, someone who commands respect. There are a few and I bet the people who have gone, have gone to these few, who crave power, more power and try to keep the leaders of their concerned pack or coven or clan in check. “Bloodsuckers and their stupid dead brains,” Celie muttered, “Oi. You are one of them now,” Damian shoots back without any heat.“As if I wanted to be one,” she retorts and gives Andrew a withering look which the ma
Omega Turned Royal 83. The King's Account
[Celie] I rush out of the throne room. I don’t bother with whoever follows me, too pre-occupied and curios and not to mention basking in sheer joy in knowing that my potions and medicine still work, even though it hasn’t been that long. I am swifter than I used to be which is the only good thing about being a bloodsucker. I can hear multiple footsteps behind me but I don’t bother with them. What is important now is to see the King and what he has to say. When I enter, the King is already sitting up, looking less pale, less like a ball of flesh and bones and more like a vampire albeit too fragile to look menacing. I come to a halt and bow. “Your Highness.” I hear a few begin to whisper as they stand slightly afar, wary but curious. Alexandra and Andrew step forward, creating somewhat of a barrier between the crowd and me. “You did an amazing job,” Andrew says in a low tone, his voice filled with awe.. I ignore his praise and the effect it has on me. “You wanted to speak with me?” I
Omega Turned Royal 82. Not Enough Evidence
[Myra] We were near the castle gate; we spotted Kaia at the gate and it was like déjà vu as she came running towards us. “Everything is a mess!” “What happened?” Damian asks. “Celie was treating the King after I brought her the ingredients required. But then someone barged into the room and, looking at the king, they began to call the others. Everyone thinks that we are bluffing, and the King is still in that same state. We exchange a worried glance before hurrying towards the Queen’s chambers and I can only gape at the sight as I spot Andrew and Alexandra standing guard, their expressions menacing while a vampire, Caleb I think leers, “Oh c’mon, you want us to believe that this is the dead King? That shrivelled up thing?” Another she-vampire, agrees in a nasal tone, “He is right. You can’t really feed us such bullshit. Why did you get the news and we did not? And why should we believe you without proof?” I glance at Damian and find him looking pissed at the hubbub. We are ab
