Princess of Faerl 10. First Glimpse
*Alaric POV* Seeing my baby for the first time since she was born overwhelmed me. At that time the plan had already progressed to my wife and Scott’s pretend relationship ending. We only needed it long enough to conceal her birth and for no one to think I was the father. My wife came up with the plan and she was so convincing that I almost severed our fated bond over it. She didn’t warn me first to get the most genuine reaction she could get out of me. It took me a month after they “broke up” to hear her out. I almost missed my chance to hold my child, just once. Home is a magical place. It has a literal living, breathing magic essence that brings the rivers, trees, and all of nature to life. There were very few Fae, or magical beings, that didn’t prefer to live here. Humans tended to believe Fae meant fairy, or that what they deemed to be mythical beasts, weren’t magical. But Fae is all those that belong to the world of Selene and magic. Our architecture, for those that prefer build
Princess of Faerl 11. New Arrangements
*Alaric POV* “Scottie and Stacie, you will need a full blood test done for us to find out your genetic composition. That way you can be prepared. Scott, I’d like for you to get one done as well. That way we can find out your full connection to the Fae world. We couldn’t do it sooner for Elentari’s safety, but I feel like there is more here than meets the eye. You weren’t chosen by random.” The gears in my head are turning and cranking quickly. We lead them up the cobblestone drive to the front of the buildings. The guards standing at attention open the gates for us. Their eyes were the only part of them that could be seen, but they were wide with surprise. The Kingdom knew my wife disappeared at some point and we almost lost our bond. The rumor of pregnancy went around but we refuted it using the living registry as proof. There was no child on record, so the rumor was put down. The castle knew, though. A room had appeared that none could enter. Her name was written in a beautiful, flo
Princess of Faerl 12. Overwhelmed
*Elentari POV* Everything had been so overwhelming. Each minute it seemed there was something new to learn. I take in the sights and sounds. The castle is huge. I’ve never seen a building so big. The vivid colors and picturesque scenery has me enchanted. Stacie starts asking me about my drawings and I realize she’s right. I did draw this place. It felt like home. Like it was calling out to me and knew me. “Welcome home!” Serenity pulls me into the Zone. “You’ve finally made it! We’re all here again!” She’s so bubbly, I almost can’t stand it. “Fully energized, eh, Serenity?” Arashi has a smug look on her face. “She’s always like this when we return after being gone for so long. I can’t remember how long it’s been.” “Four hundred fifty years, eight months, two weeks, and three days,” Lucinda replies dryly. “And that was for a very short time.” Silk takes her turn to speak. “If our task is no longer viable with the physical body we possess, we return to Selene. But the four of us
Princess of Faerl 13. The Meadow
*Elentari* I yawn and walk towards the far corner of the room where there is another door. I open it and it’s much more my style. A full-size bed with a black comforter that has the triple moon goddess symbol on it. This makes me smile. I take my shoes off and curl up in the comfy bed. Out of habit, I call out, “Echo, set an alarm for 3 hours.” To my surprise, I got a response telling me an alarm would wake me. Of course, my echo was with me. I’d be lost without it. Sleep overtakes me quickly as I've been up for over 24 hours. No sooner than my eyes are closed, I’m in the middle of a huge expanse that has various themes around it. One was a meadow with beautiful flowers, another a forest with beautiful lights and bright colors. A third had cliffs and caves with a gorgeous waterfall. The last one was a library with books that I couldn’t see the top of. This was amazing. I slowly walk around taking in the breathtaking view. I hear large wings flapping over my head and look up. A brilli
Princess of Faerl 14. Dad's Got a Girlfriend!
*Elentari* We left the room arm in arm, followed by Tanz. The pixie went across the hall and knocked on the doors of Dad and Scottie. I was shocked to see dad in a lilac polo shirt. It was almost poetic. He wore black slacks and black dress shoes. His hair was neatly combed, and I could tell he felt something was up. Scottie had a cream-colored polo and the same type of pants and shoes. “Damn...” I mutter, “I stick out like a sore thumb in this family.” Shaking my head. The three of them laugh and we retrace our steps following Tanz. She directs us down the stairs and through a series of hallways. I felt like I’d need a map to get through this place. We reach the dining hall. Belle and Alaric are already there, standing at the head of the table, casually dressed. I was suddenly very happy I didn’t change. The seats to the left of Alaric were empty, while standing next to Belle was the woman I saw in my dream. Wearing the outfit I saw her wearing. The only difference was her hair was
Princess of Faerl 15. Our New Beginning
*Scott Sr* When we left dinner, my mind and body were on fire. I never understood the fate bond as Belle didn’t teach me about it. She had always said she couldn’t see a bond for me. I always assumed I was a normal human and most humans don’t have fated mates. I’m not sure why I suddenly had a fated, but I wasn’t going to miss this opportunity. Lyssandra never loved me. I was a tool to her. Someone to use and throw away. This woman is breathtaking. Her doe-like eyes have me in a trance. Her smile warms my heart. Her smooth skin draws me in. I follow her as she reaches for my hand. My body reacted with a fiery need that I was convinced would consume my body. ‘It’s okay to want her.’ I thought to myself, but I didn’t initiate that thought. I bit my lip trying to figure out where it came from as the voice didn’t sound like my own. When people have thoughts, it sounds like themselves, right? At least mine always had. She turned towards me, smiling all the way to her eyes and I felt a bit
Princess of Faerl 16. Our New Beginning (Con't)
*Scott Sr* “Scott, more please. I need more.” She begs me. I groan against her core, slipping another finger into her tightness, my tongue still moving on her sensitive button. “Oh Goddess yes!” She screams. I feel her walls start to spasm as her breath becomes erratic and fast. I swear I can hear her pulse. Her core quivers tightening as she screams and her sweet liquids drown my mouth. I wiggle my fingers a bit more as I stand, removing my boxers. She moves to wrap her slender fingers around me, but I shake my head, leaning her back. I pull her legs up so her feet are on my shoulders by my head, lifting and moving her to the edge of the bed. I tease her, dropping myself against her button, eliciting more of the sweet sound my ears love. Just when I think she couldn’t drive me any more crazy, she does. Her eyes are pleading me to take her as I play with and pinch her rosy nipples. Her hand snakes down to rub her button as I position myself in front of her core. “You’re sure about thi
Princess of Faerl 17. After Dinner
*Elentari* Once dinner was over, Dad left with Alisee, his expression completely smitten while she held desire in her eyes. I blushed and turned to look at my ‘new’ parents. I did not want to think about what my dad may or may not be doing with Alisee tonight. Scottie and Stacie opted to return to their rooms, letting me have a quiet moment with the people responsible for bringing me into this world. It was strange to me. I only knew their names and nothing more. “Elentari, you must have so many questions. Before we dive in,” Belle and Alaric had guilty and sad expressions, “We wanted to apologize that we haven’t been there for you growing up. All we wanted to do was protect you, but malice still found you.” Alaric’s voice shook as he spoke. Belle had gentle tears rolling down her cheeks. “I do not blame you, really. I mean, it may take me a while to call you mom and dad. But I’m sure we’ll get there. For the most part, I had an average childhood. Lyssandra never beat me or starve

Princess of Faerl Teasers for the Series!
*Epilogue* The sleep was deep. It was meant to be. The safety of the subconscious allowed for growth beyond measure. The females would need sleep to aid them, the two tied by their mate bond more than the other. Those two will sleep for no less than a year. The other girl will sleep on and off for a week or two at a time. She doesn’t realize this yet, but it’s what must be done. Some that are to train her can only do so within her subconscious, The new deities will change the entirety of the universe as we know it and those that are unknown. A chilling wind crosses the brow of the sleeping girls, two in the meadow, one in a castle, but they all felt it. Power would be theirs. The power of three. The king and queen-to-be had a lot to learn as well. They didn’t know they would be taking over. Their confidence in themselves was shaking. Hopefully, they would realize they were meant for greatness and not insignificant. The previous generation held worry in their hearts alongside p
Princess of Faerl 82. Slumber
*Elentari*I was walking through the galaxy, stepping on thin air. My hair seemed to be made of the stars with nebulas within it. A shimmery glow surrounded my body and my skin became the deep void of the night sky. I felt a strength I had never known. Visions flew around my head. Beings from my life books, voices that felt familiar. Small pieces of knowledge became encyclopedias and volumes worth of knowledge. I saw strange beings with various colors of skin, different types of dragons, fae, vampires, pixies, itches, warlocks, werefolks, and ones I don’t have the words to describe. Each being spent hours pouring information to me. Histories, lore, policies, pantheons and so much more. It felt like weeks without a break. So many thoughts and new things to learn. Raza showed up as well, departing the histories of her people, explaining the blood of Bronzetail. They were the last line of Raza’s direct descendants. It made so much more sense now why she was targeted. Funny enough, no one
Princess of Faerl 81. Waited so Long
*Selene*She didn’t know it, but she hasn’t been using any of my powers for months. Everything she has accomplished has been under her own strength and goddess powers. She had no idea how strong she had become in such a short time. It made me proud. All of my children were born with their powers, so it wasn’t much of a learning curve for them. But Elentari started from scratch and was thrown into a world of peril, expected to perform flawlessly. She had been asleep for a couple of days. I suspected she would be for a few more days. Bringing someone out of a god induced sleep without direct permission was unheard of. Zeus didn’t fight us, waking him, but he didn’t aid us either. It was the most amazing feeling to be in my lovers arms again. It had been so long. The dream state was nothing compared to the real thing. His kisses made me melt. Our children came to visit, a couple at a time. They hadn’t seen him since he had been placed into his sleep state, so they were naturally taken
Princess of Faerl 80. Operation Endymion
*Elentari*The next day, Selene brought the offenders before Adalith. Such a thing had not been done before. A mere mortal being sentenced by the Creator of All. It was unthinkable. Word spread like wildfire that a shifter tried to frame Apophis Bronzetail for the murder of his eldest child. Krysta was sentenced as an accomplice. The shifter was identified as a servant of Chaos, unworthy of a name. His sentence was to be stripped of his shifter powers, whipped for 365 days, 5 lashes per hour, then executed by Dragon Fire. He would not be allowed rebirth, forever in the void. Krysta was stripped of the name Bronzetail, forced to reclaim Bluewind. Adalith stripped her of her magic and sent her back to her coven to be punished by the coven mother. Selene added to her sentence that Krysta would never be able to bear children or a mate mark. She would never be allowed a partner at all. If she tried to defy this punishment, she would be subjected to Dragon Fire and her soul never to be re
Princess of Faerl 79. Off with His Damn Head
*Aranelda*I stormed to the dungeons. This person was going to pay and pay dearly. I wouldn’t imagine who could do this to her. She knew it was going to happen too. She did everything she could to make sure it wouldn’t impact us. There was no way it wouldn’t though. My fiancée is laying in a coma. My mate was near death. The ones in the dungeon right now were the cause of it. Apparently my father had beat me down there, but I wasn’t going to be stopped from exacting my own brand of justice. “Apophis, what did you do??” A shrill woman’s voice flooded my ears. “Why are they talking as if you have a different wife and a daughter?” The words were dripping with self preservation. “Why are you pretending you don’t know who my wife and daughter are?” The man spat back. “Dad, who are these pathetic beings that are arguing with each other?” I let the disdain fall from my every word. “This,” He pointed to the woman, “Is a creature that identifies herself as Krysta Bronzetail and insists she
Princess of Faerl 78. Blood of the Coven
*Elentari*We arrived at the Bronzetail Manor, but we weren’t in a luxurious room as I expected to be. We were in what looked like cells. Eliza laid on a cot, her hand holding her throat as she propped herself up against a wall. The man I thought was her father held a blood soaked knife in his hand and was hurling insults at her. “You’re a worthless wretch. No good comes from having female offspring. Blessed of Raza… what foolishness. You couldn’t get the prince to yourself so now all you’re allowed is death. I have to pick up the pieces from your whorish ways. Loving a woman, are you kidding me?? You’re ridiculous. Worthless.” He spat at her. I raised my hand, freezing his in midair. Hep reached out his hand and retrieved the weapon from his hand. “Mr. Bronzetail.” I spoke aloud, using the full force of my authority. “You are sentenced to death for the attempted murder of Eliza Bronzetail. You will be escorted to the Royal dungeons by Hephaestus. Your act has been witnessed by myse
Princess of Faerl 77. Party Time
*Third Person*The party was in full swing, the entire world was introduced to the newly christened Duke and Duchess of Faerl. Of course, Stacie wouldn’t stay a duchess for long. Scottie beat Aranelda to the proposal, though. He stepped out onto the dance floor, Lily on his arm, as the DJ turned down the music. “And now, your new Duke of Faerl, Scott MaComb Jr would like to have everyone’s attention.” He held a microphone in one hand, clearing his throat. “So, I’m not good at speeches, so I figured I’d try and make sure I did this first. Sorry, Aran.” A few laughs went through the crowd. “Lily, you’ve felt the mate bond in full force for the last year. I’ve only had the pleasure of feeling it, in its complete glory, for less than a day. I have to say, there is no better feeling in the world than holding your hand. I know for our kinds, this is not the tradition. You mark, and mate, and whatnot. But due to my upbringing, I thought I was a human all along, which I now know is a fairyt
Princess of Faerl 76. The World Ends With You
*Aranelda*It was just after midnight when I woke Stacie up. I could feel her distress through the bond. At least, I thought it was Stacie’s. I rushed to her room, finding her thrashing in her sleep on a tear soaked pillowcase. “Stacie, wake up!” Her sobs flooded my ears. She rolled over onto me, clinging for dear life. “Love, what is wrong? Tell me what is going on? Why are you so upset?”I could barely understand her words, something about Eliza, her not wanting to let go of the bond, that she was in danger. It was that moment that my stomach dropped. Kali was talking about Eliza. I couldn’t worry my mate with that though. I tried to soothe her as best I could while trying to calm myself. It would all be okay. The goddess wouldn’t let Eliza die, would she? “It’ll all be okay.” I promised her. I was promising myself just as much that it would all come to a happy conclusion. ‘Deep breaths in, slow exhale’ I kept thinking to myself, hoping it would calm both of us if I was able to cal
Princess of Faerl 75. Feeling Heartbreak
*Stacie*The spa day was wonderful, but having to spend that much time with your “ex” is exhausting. I don’t care who you are or how much grace you have within you. I took the day in stride, but I hoped tomorrow would be a better day. Heading out of the spa and back up to my room, I felt the all too familiar presence of the most beautiful woman in the world behind me. “What do you need, Eliza?” I asked without turning around. If I looked at her I might just crumble. “Need?” She repeated quietly. Her tone was different, somewhat alarming. I felt her still, even though we rejected each other. I wasn’t supposed to be able to feel her, but here we are. Her grief and guilt floods over me. “I’m not sure what I need. I don’t know what to do. Have you ever been so dedicated to someone that their wants always came before your own and you never truly thought about yourself, or your own happiness?” Her question hit a cord with me. “I hid who I am for far too long so I wouldn’t have to be in th
