Sorry I have taken some time out of updating this book , I am trying to finish my other book The King and the Golden Wolf so I can give this book the attention it deserves . Thank you for reading . MM xx
Prince Kurat It has been two days since Nari went missing. I am sick of everyone saying she ran away . I know Nari would never leave me ; never . I haven't slept or eaten since she went missing , my beast is out for blood . He is unsettled , the only time he calms is if I sit in her room . Her scent is still strong there , I miss her . I know something bad has happened to her , she's still alive but I know she is in trouble . Today that fat ass hole of an Alpha is back to chat with my father about Shivia and me possibly getting married . Well that will never happen and I swear to our goddess I will pay him back for his threats and demands against my father and our kingdom . Who does he think he is making demands of? I have been avoiding the other females , even though I know for a fact that little bitch Nyx is lying to me about Nari . The only people who believe she never ran away are my mother and my brother Ratnik . My father is just looking tired and I know there is somethin
Prince Kurat “So , is someone going to tell me why our big brother is such a dick ?” Gideon asks as soon as he returns from settling Mystique in his room . Ratnik and I had been sitting in the private lounge drinking some of our fathers bourbon . The golden liquid was going down nicely . Ratnik stood up and poured Gideon a glass before joining us again . “So?” he pressed us . Letting out a deep sigh Ratnik starts with a frown . “ Brother , he has been getting worse . He honestly thinks he is the king already .” Gideon just nods as he takes a sip of his drink . “ So same old shit then” he says with a small laugh and a shake of his head . “ Still not allowing you to deal with the army and warriors?” he asks with a raised brow . “ Pretty much” Ratnik smirks while refilling our glasses . Gideon turns to me with a look I can't quite place . “ Mother told me about Nari brother , how are you holding up?” I just looked up, catching his eye . I am sure he can see the storm or pain
Nari I am pulled from the slumber with a sharp kick to my stomach . The jerking movement sent a searing pain to shoot through my shoulder blades . Suckikng in a deep breath and breathing out through gritted teeth , I look up to come face to face with Conrad, my childhood tormenter . His smug face makes me want to wipe it clear off his face . “Wake up princess” he says with his brown teeth and disgusting breath turn my empty stomach . He drags me up by the upper arm and the pain has me seeing black dots . I have no idea how long I have been here or where I actually am , but I know one thing I need to get out of here . I hear a female chuckling from behind him and I close my eyes ; shit , I thought as I recognised the female as my other childhood tormenter . Mrs fucking Lightly herself in the flesh , i roll my eyes as i hear her talking to someone else who must be outside the door of the room i have been living in for the past few days or however long . I don't even have time to t
Prince Kurat I am struggling to keep my breathing under control as I gather my thoughts and make my way to meet my brothers . The minute I burst through the doors to the dining hall Ratnik and Gideon stand up , I know my aura is surging around me . Almost everyone in the dining hall withdrew and left the space as they were finding it hard to breathe as my aura pushed against them . “Kurat , what is the matter brother ?” Gideon reaches me first . The pain clenching my heart is making it hard for me to speak or form proper thoughts . “ LEAVE” I heard Ratnik instruct the few who were still in the dining hall to leave . Gideons female came over and asked him something in her own language to which he answered and she sat back down . “Kurat , can you tell us what has happened?” Gideon asks while gripping my shoulder as Ratnik kneels in front of me . Gathering myself I take a few deep breaths. “Shivia , It was Shivia she got Nyx to set Nari up” I manage to say as the realisation
Prince Kurat The desperation to get to Nari was increasing as we followed the tracks of Varn’s car. Lucky for us he was the only Alpha still arrogant enough to use a limo . The man really thought he was something special , no wonder his daughter acted as she did . We had been running for about five miles when the tracks seemed to turn off onto a dirt road . Slowing up I link my brothers to keep an eye and ear out for anything . ‘ Something feels off Kurat’ Ratnik says through our link . I know what he meant. I could feel that there were eyes on us . As the wind slightly changes I catch a whiff of blood , fresh blood . Looking at my brothers I know they caught it as well . Turning in the direction the tyre marks are heading but more importantly the smell of blood seems to be coming from that direction . About two miles up the track I can hear the sound of a vehicle coming towards us . Signalling to my brothers we all step back into the shadow of the tree line as the car comes
Prince Kurat By the time we arrived at the castle I was fighting with my beast , not to go in hunt of those responsible for the state Nari is in . The minute we arrive in front of the infirmary , we are met with a flurry of nurses and doctors . Growling at the nurse who tried to take Nari from my arms , she just looked at my mother who smiled and shook her head . There was no way I was letting her out of my sight . Looking at how fragile she is and still deathly pale , I knew I was acting possessive but I didn't give two shits . I have been going through hell and by the state of the female in my arms she was in hell . Reluctantly I agreed to allow them to check her but only if I was in the room . I had convinced myself if I took my eyes off her she might disappear . Gideon came by to check on Nari with his female mystique , she had offered to stay with my mother and Nari so my brothers and I could talk in private . Even if I really don't know this female, she never gave off any
Prince Kurat I must have drifted off , I could feel this soft sensation like someone was running her hands through my hair . It was nice , soothing . I must have been exhausted , my head is on the bed and my body is aching as I try to move. I realise where I am and my head shoots up . It’s dark outside and the room has a warm light cast from the moon coming in from the window . She looks like the Goddess herself as my eyes land on her beautiful odd eyes . She looks tired and still pale but she is awake , she tries to speak but her throat is dry and she points to the water sitting on the table at the side of the bed . I slip my arm behind her shoulders so she is sitting up , I totally forget how bad her back is until she hisses in pain “Shit sorry baby” I say in panic . She shakes her head and gives me a smile that warms my heart . After a drink she lays gently back down with her eyes closed . I can't help myself , I take her hand and kiss her knuckles , relishing in the sparks .
Nari The information from the doctor has my brain on overdrive , especially the part about me being a hybrid . Gideon pops back in with his female friend who I get to meet . She is a tiny little thing with a very noticeable aura , it's strong but friendly . He black braided hair is down her back and her green eyes stand out against her dark skin . She is extremely beautiful with a thick accent and what looks like tribal tattoos down her neck and arms . I feel at ease with her straight away , almost like a kindred spirit . She seems at ease with me as well , I do notice she is a bit more tense with the men . Ratnik has popped in a couple of times , mostly to discuss things with Kurat . By the evening I was exhausted , the nurses had been in to change my dressing on my back . They had confirmed the silver and wolfsbane was now out of my system and hopefully all going well. I should shift tomorrow when the moon reaches its peak . Kurat had been trying to reassure me all day that i
EpilogueNariAs I stand and look at myself in the full length mirror I know it’s me but the change in me is unbelievable. I have curves, my eyes are bright and my skin holds a glow it never had before. Having the baby took its toll on my body, Arculus was a big lad. I can't help but smile when I think of my boy, he is getting more like his father everyday. Thinking of his father causes butterflies in my tummy, at times I still can't believe I am mated to the dark prince himself. My Kurat, who would have thought that the same guy who I slapped is the same man I now can’t live without.My hair has grown a bit, it’s now long enough for an updo. My tiara sits tucked into my fancy updo, my father told me this was the very tiara my Grandmother wore for her coronation, the same Grandmother who died trying to save me. Reaching up I touch the beautifully designed crown that sits atop my head, I wonder as my fingers graze the emerald stones if she would be proud of how I grew up? I wish I cou
KuratWe have had so many strange things happening since Gideon left, our borders have been getting hit. Someone is clearly looking for the weakest point. Kendrik and I have been running the fence line together at night before bed. However this is the first time they have managed to breach the wards my mother and Mystique had put in place. The minute the pack alarms sounded I knew this was going to be a nightmare, but keeping my mate and kids safe is all that matters.I am so glad Ratnik is now here, he is one of the best Generals of our time, his hand to hand combat is amazing. Saying goodbye to Nari was hard but I know both our fathers are with them and my mother is incredibly strong and will protect them.I have been shouting orders through the pack-link to our warriors, shifting into my Lycan as we get a mile from the border. The air changes and my Lycan starts to growl, the pack-link goes quiet. Turning from side to side I realise both my brother and Kendrick are in their Lycan b
NariNo, No, no this can't be happening I think as the baby starts to cry clearly being woken by the alarm. My room door bursts open and the girls rush in with wide eyes “Nari, what's happening?” Hada screams as Psalm and she clings to my legs.“Hey, don't panic, we will find out what's going on” I tell them hoping I sound braver than I actually felt. The knock at the door comes as a guard shouts “Princess Nari, we must take you to the bunker at the King's orders” He calls through the door.“Get the door please, Hada” I say as I scoop up the now screaming Arculus and head to the now open door and two guards that are waiting. Gavin, my normal guard stands and I hand him my baby as I take Psalm in my arms and follow them down the stairs.We met my father, and Kurt's parents at the bottom of the stairs. Mama takes the baby and Tynan takes Hada and we follow my father to the back of the palace where the bunker is located. Trying Kurat again I am met with silence and my worry is hitting a
NariIt's been almost two months since Arculus was born, he is such a good baby and the joy he brings to the palace is unbelievable. The girls have been amazing with him, Hada is a proper little mother with him. Psalm is the cutest, I find her talking to him when she thinks no one is looking.My father has surprised me with being so hands on with him. He refers to himself as Pop Pop. He likes to take the baby walks in his pram around the gardens so I can get some rest or do some more training. Mystique and Gideon left about ten days ago, seemingly they have a lot to prepare for. My heart goes out to my best friend. She has so much to do before facing her father. I know she is powerful, but the fear in her eyes will never leave me.Kurats parents are arriving back this afternoon with Ratnik. We need to arrange the Royal offering, this is much like the human version of a christening. We offer up our young to Selene and pray for their safe journey through life until she welcomes them bac
MystiqueThe minute the little king was born I felt it, the power, the connection, the prophecy has been put into motion. Gideon felt it, we both woke at the same time. I have known for a long time what was expected of me, what my father tried to stop from happening.The second Arculus was placed into my arms, the twines of fate were already at work. The power coming off this little bundle of pure joy was stronger than even mine. His aura was strong with the same purple glow of his mother.He is the first of the four, the king to the north. This means if we go by the Prophecy the king to the south is next to be born. Judging by what Bastet told Nari the date has been chosen, that also means he knows where I am.The day Gideon stumbled into our Tribe I knew he was mine, that the Goddess’ had got together and somehow decided to save me from the life of hell I had lived since the day I was born.Gideon was powerful, he intrigued my father. That's why he allowed him to stay on our lands, t
NariArculus, or the little king as everyone calls him is such a good baby. He was born at a whoopin 12 lbs 4oz. He is the image of his father, except this white stripe through his hair. I just love him, I am still in my baby bubble.I haven't had the chance to talk to anyone about the visit from the Goddess. I feel like I really need to tell Mama, she is the one person who knows so much about magic and everything to do with it but I feel like there is something she isnt telling me but i'll talk to her when we are alone.I have been breastfeeding but if I am really honest, I don't think I have enough milk. My son is a big boy, a big hungry boy just like his father. Speaking of his father, Kurat should be home soon. I just lay the pup down when a knock at the door has him wake back up; fuck.Cradling my son to me I go to the door, pulling it open. I almost cry at the sight of my best friend. “Mystique! Oh my, I can’t believe you're here. How did you?” I grip my bestie with one arm as I
Queen EulalieSince the moment Tynan and I arrived in the northern Kingdom we have both been busy. Tynan has been working with Ezekiel and Kurat, while I have been fussing over Nari. My first grandchild is giving his poor mother a hard time.The first time I saw her when we arrived I was shocked at how big she was, her tiny frame. I spoke to her doctor the second day I got here, they honestly don't think she will be able to deliver the baby naturally. In true Nari style she is determined to try.Three days ago while I was checking on Nari, she was sleeping so I was quietly tidying around their room when a small tug, at my magic. It was him, my first grandchild, he has magic and because it’s the same as mine it was drawing it from me.I couldn't stop myself from smiling, he recognised me by our family bonded magic. He is a strong little mage like his uncle Gideon. Gideon started like this, little tugs on my magic. His brothers hold a little but Gideon is powerful, more than he even real
NariPoor Kurat is a mass of nerves, since I was put on bedrest. He has refused to leave the immediate grounds or be any further than ten minutes away. We have just arrived at the hospital, Mama is dealing with my stressed out mate. I am in pain but I also know my Lycan is taking the brunt of it. Getting taken to the delivery suite I was seriously shocked at the changes that has been made. I look at the nurse, she just smiles at me “Your father, your majesty” She says. I just smile and allow her to help me get changed into my gown ready for the little king’s arrival.I can't help but smile at my mother-in-law when she winks at me from behind her son. Kurat takes the seat at the side of me, taking my hand. The pain is coming every few seconds, I am working through my breathing.Within ten minutes I was ready to push, the doctor had checked and I was now fully dilated ready to push. Even with my Lycan taking the brunt of the pain I was really starting to struggle. The need to push was
Prince KuratNari was put on bed rest last week as she is massive and our pup is due any day now. My parents have been here for the past week, my mother has been fussing over Nari. My Father has been working on creating a stronger alliance with Ezekiel, It goes without saying that we have each other's back but for the sake of the elders they are having it all documented. I won’t lie, I am terrified of the thought of our pup being here, just as much as I am excited. I watch Nari take everything that has come her way and she never moans, or feels sorry for herself. And when I say she's huge; I mean she is massive.I have settled into my life here, Ezekiel is a great teacher. He has taken me under his wing showing me all the way this kingdom works. I think he is more excited about the pup’s arrival than anyone else.The girls have settled into the school, they have mixed age classes so they don't have to be separated. This helps as they really don't like to be apart. They have been help
