36. Made of glass

last update Last Updated: 2023-08-12 08:26:18

To them, Aakifahlynn knew it would be good riddance if she turned up missing. But for her, it would be freedom. She was not worried about this Ayacque because she had a plan.

But Aakifahlynn truly felt like she was not welcome here. This was not her Kingdom. It was not the home and safe haven she'd thought it once was.

These were not her people. They were ALL scheming against her.

But why? Her own kind, nonetheless.

Aakifahlynn was never meant to be there amongst those snakes. She classed them like she did her Ayacquean enemy, serpents. They deserve to pay. ALL OF THEM!

Soon, Emperor Demarion Dracul gently placed her in the vehicle's front passenger seat as if she was made out of glass, went to the driver's side, got in, and took off.

The Emperor hated that he could never use his abilities here. There was some sort of resistance. He surmised it must be a spell because this would undoubtedly have made things easier for him...Every time.

So here he was without his strengths and powerfu

    Aakifahlynn went through the motions for a good fifteen minutes, and once it was all said and done, her mind, heart, body, and soul were freed from the shackles of the mate bond that kept her standing still for far too long and threatened to do the same this time.She would not have it. She refused to feel this way for a man who treated her like her mate did. He killed her, and he did it in a sneaky way. The after-effects left Aakifahlynn drowsy, her eyelids heavy. She struggled to keep them open, her blue iris disappearing as they rolled back occasionally, then focused again as she battled.But it was a fight that she was losing even though she felt empty and light as a feather. Suddenly she slumped back on the seat, unable to stay up and wanting to give in to whatever it was.This sudden tiredness overwhelmed her. This process had taken every last bit of strength Aakifahlynn had left after the night that she had. And it was a sweet slumber that beckoned her.Aakifahlynn almost hit

    "Exactly, the same Aakifahlynn that hasn't the slightest clue of what's really going on," Duke Chapman added to the King's words. However, he was interrupted before he could continue."And what about the now vacant Elder positions?" The Vampyre, Viscount Everald Ferguson, ardently enquired. He knew the absurdity of accusing Aakifahlynn of this. Besides, he was more concerned about the Eldership.He asked what was undoubtedly on everyone's mind, but none dared to bring it up. And as Viscount Ferguson braved the room, the rest suddenly had so much to say, chiming in.Duke Chapman took the opportunity to respond, "Gentlemen, surely we have more pressing matters to discuss." Duke Chapman was convinced he was a shoo-in for one of the elder positions. After all, he was a werewolf. If history was proof of anything, he would say he was indeed a sure thing as one of the werewolves in the council and a Duke.Only an Elder was higher in rank."I would say the stability of the kingdom is also of

    Jairus's eyes closed as he leaned his head back on his chair and lived in that moment again, also adding to it, picturing in his mind's eye what he would do when he got her back.Jairus was irked at how Aakifahkynn had been brushing him off when all he wanted to do was live in her. But she had never brushed him off before.And there was that voice in the back of his head whispering that he was never that aggressive in his sexual approach towards her either. But he simply chose not to acknowledge it.When he got her back, he would treat her better, that's for sure ...Jairus no longer had the urge for Taisiya like he now did with his wife…"Aakifahlynn, Aakifahlynn, Aakifahlynn, that is all I hear from you... I cannot take it anymore," Taisiya had shouted and stormed out, leaving him sitting behind his desk in his study that day.Then she had been in the hospital since the night of the ball, refusing to see anyone. He allowed it. No one needed to know his intentions. The doctor said sh

    Taisiya held out because she had exhausted herself soon after her stunt to spy on Aakifahlynn and Jairus. Being invisible was no easy feat, and she was pregnant.She'd started to spot and was ordered to rest and lay off from exerting herself. Taisiya knew these twins would get her where she needed to be, so she listened to the Doctor.Then, her babies were more important, and what was waiting a few days? She'd told herself after one week or two, she would be able to do some light magic to strengthen her hold on Jairus.Taisiya had come too far for anything to sully her plans now. She could no longer wait that long and did not have to.Taisiya had also used magic after the Doctor's warning to kill Aakifahlynn after the following night of Aakifahlynn's seduction.Jairus had started to lie to her, and she realized how much her influence was failing. So not thinking clearly or rationally about why they kept Aakifahlynn alive, to begin with. Taisiya was suddenly consumed with ending her li

  • Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain   41. Cut her to her core

    Aakifahlynn stood on a rock, trying to balance herself and avoid falling into the raging dark waters. Her long blonde hair wrapped in a tight bun slightly loosened, causing tendrils of hair to escape their confines, and whipped around in a frenzy with the velocity and vigorous movement of the sea breeze that threatened to topple her over along with the body she carried.The noisy, aggressive waves roared as they thrashed against the slippery, broken-down slabs of walls and rocks. Aakifahlynn quickly braced herself and tossed the warrior in as far as possible, which was not far at all. He barely made it off the rocks. Then she stood there and watched as the waves did the rest. Thankfully, the waves literally scooped up the warrior.It was not that Aakifahlynn was weak. She was simply feeble in her rushed decision to throw the warrior out in the sea like this for the sea creatures to devour. Actually, she was contemplating a proper burial under the moon for him.But she did not have

    Aakifahlynn sighed and continued her inspection.The beautiful furniture is royal, rich purple with intricate gold highlights.The luxurious couch set to her right was purple with gold trimming and feet, paired with a gold iron frame and glass at the top center table, with a mini bar area, a small fridge, and bar stools to finish the look. It did not go unnoticed to Aakifahlynn that she was in a room decorated in her favorite color, royal purple.Her searching, curious eyes slid past that and saw that there were double doors she assumed to be the exit. Straight ahead of her across the room was another double door, which Aakifahlynn thought was the closet because she believed the single left door was the toilet. Before that, a table with chairs, purple seating, a small desk with books and parchments scattered about, and an office chair were partitioned. The walls were painted in a warm lilac-colored pallet with gold moldings.The ceiling was the same lilac, and the two gold and purpl

    As such, Emperor Demarion Dracul was prepared with the facts. He strolled over to a small table in the room they were all in, took up a few parchments of paper, and gestured it toward Aakifahlynn, his eyes never leaving her.'Why was Jairus so eager to find me?' This was a surprise to Aakifahlynn. She was in her thoughts.Aakifahlynn absentmindedly walked towards him, her blue eyes never leaving his. She now focused on him and looked for any sight of dishonesty, but she found none. Nonetheless, what she knew about the Ayacqueans outweighed her judgment.Too much was going on, so she must proceed cautiously and be suspicious, keeping her guard up until the end, and victory was hers or proven otherwise.Taking the small stack from Emperor Dracul's hand, Aakifahlynn's eyes widened at what she held: a sketch of her, offering five thousand gold coins, which is five hundred thousand dollars, to anyone with information about her, leading to her safe return.Her already widened eyes widened

    "Oh, this is a surprise. I was expecting somewhere less..." Aakifahlynn gestured to her surroundings."Lavish." Emperor Dracul finished for her, his hands behind his back."Yes, I mean, I held out hope you were not taking me to the dungeons, but this?" Her hands rose and fell back onto her lap as she gestured to the room and environment.At her words, The Emperor hid his look as if she'd slapped him in his face. He would never dream of letting her stay in the dungeons.Emperor Demarion Dracul knew he had to tread carefully with how much he disclosed and how soon. And he would continue to hold out despite his advisor and second-in-command's warnings...But the bottom line is he would never let her stay anywhere less than his palace. "The Emperor had spoken. You and your family are safe and welcome here as long as needed."Aakifahlynn blinked, then blinked again, "I must thank the Emperor. When can I meet him?" Demarion was taken aback for a moment. She was always so relieved at hearing

    Jarrod had all but pledged his life to the man, grateful to him for saving it. The same was true of her parents. She understood why they were faithful, but they were all missing the 'why' in this situation. Aakifahlynn's mind was a whirlwind of confusion, unable to grasp the true identity of the man they all revered.It scared Aakifahlynn, not knowing the 'why' of Demarion's actions in saving them. This could be more sinister than they all thought or imagined. And what did her parents do? Blindly worship him.Now that she saw and understood where her parents stood on the matter, she would drop it and let the chips fall where they may, but that does not mean she would suddenly let her guard down. No way, no how.The rest of the day went by pretty quickly—it was almost a blur. Aakifahlynn had left her parents and visited her garden, where she'd started growing flowers for her scented soaps.She checked on the progress even though she knew they were already being taken care of, thanks

    Perhaps this dinner was a stroke of luck. Aakifahlynn's primary goal was to avoid Demarion and direct all her focus toward the families present.This annual ball and fundraiser can be the start of her getting close to the Emperor. And if she was being honest, Demarion did mention this to her weeks ago, but it may have gone in one ear and come out the other. She was too busy with her 'kill list,' the people she sought revenge on for past wrongs.Since then, she'd already decided she would not attend, and she knew him getting her parents involved would be a way to get her there. So you know what? She would dress to kill, wine, dine with the elites, and maybe find herself a wealthy man. She rolled her eyes inwardly at her last thought as if."Fine, I'll think about it," Aakifahlynn said, not wanting to suddenly give in."Come on, Aakifahlynn, pleaseeee do it for me." Her mother's plea echoed. Aakifahlynn was not ready to give in so quickly, but she could not resist her mother."Okay, o

    Aakifahlynn quickly flew off the bed. After eating, she brushed her teeth, showered, and dressed for the day. She wanted to return to visit her parents to tell them where she really was yesterday and give them the news about Jarrod, her father's friend, and Alpha, who was presumed dead.She knew her father would be thrilled that his old pal was indeed alive. However, she did not want Demarion to know about that development just yet, simply because she wanted to keep some things to herself. Goddess knows how much Demarion has been keeping from her.Aakifahlynn also planned to keep busy because there was a gala soon, but she had no intentions of attending.Meanwhile, last night was the most restless night Demarion had experienced, and he had been around for centuries, so that's saying a lot.And it was not because he slept by Aakifahlynn's door; that had been his norm since she arrived. No, that was not it.He was happy that Aakifahlynn was safe and sound. He'd gathered that she must ha

    Aakifahlynn was still cloaked, and Demarion was wearing gloves, so she did not experience the full effect of his touch. And yet, for a second, she lost herself in his eyes, and her eyes fell to his lips. Then, she moved up to his eyes again and licked her lips.Her face suddenly moved closer to him.At Aakifahlynn's apparent intentions, Demarion wasted not another second; he had been waiting an entire lifetime for this again; he instantly closed the distance between them, his head swooping lower to meet her as she tiptoes wrapping her arms around his neck and kissed him.It quickly became hungry and heated, his hands moving down her back, caressing her waist, pulling her flush to him as he sat on the table, she between his legs.She grabbed the hair at the nape of his neck and slid her hand up, massaging his head. Her fingers ran through his hair as they melted in this passionate kiss, and they both moaned in pure pleasure.However, Aakifahlynn had been fighting this for the last few

    Yes, she was cloaked. She had thoroughly cloaked herself so Demarion could not keep such a tight hold on her.And even though Aakifahlynn saw the errors of her ways because her father could not feel her through their bond, she would blame Demarion.It was his fault. "How could you?" Aakifahlynn shouted, her voice shaky with rage, not giving him a chance to respond. His gaze bore into her, so Aakifahlynn felt as if she could not breathe under his intense gaze.She continued anyway, refusing to let his allures get to her, "What gave you the right to raise such an alarm?""Why would you provoke such a raucous that would cause my mother and father such pain? They thought I was in serious danger and that something was seriously wrong when I only wanted to get away from you and your lies." she snapped.Her words, a cascade of pent-up emotions, not letting him get a word in.Now, she was breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling. "Aakifahlynn?" Her mother's gentle voice called out to h

  • Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain   73. Feared the worst

    Demarion had come by earlier, but now it was dark out, and Aakifahlynn was still nowhere to be found. This was a bit unusual. And the fact that Demarion was worried, Aakifahlynn's mother was now.By Mrs. Arwen's response and stricken look, Demarion got his answer without even asking. They still had not seen her since. "Guards," Demarion shouted.There were guards at almost every post. How could Aakifahlynn slip past them, and neither of them saw her? "Yes sir," the nearest guard came almost at a run, "sound the alarm. Our Empress is missing." Demarion orders.Those words about 'his empress' flew over Mrs. Arwen's head as she was now stricken with fear, being consoled by her husband, Aakifahlynn's father, Mr. Ludwig Arwen. She had left the door wide open, and Danica walked in to get them up to speed. She mentioned her brief conversation with their daughter earlier today in an attempt to reassure them that she was certain Aakifahlynn was just fine. Demarion barked a few more orders

  • Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain   72. She does not remember me

    Demarion sighed. He did not mean to come off so aggressive, he thought for a moment. There were many reasons why he was holding off on bombarding Aakifahlynn with all the information he had about their past lives. "Because she never believes me at first, always... and always tries to escape me. Which always led to her death before I could." Demarion's voice cracked, and when he regained it, it trembled. He fisted.He was tough and mighty, powerful and feared by many; however, this one woman could bring him to his knees without even trying."Before I could even hold her in my arms and show her how much I loved her before she could ever love me, I simply cannot risk her life like that this time; I won't." He declared.Danica's heart ached for her brother. " What if you are wrong, and she does believe you this time?""Why would she? I haven't been completely honest with her, and it's damned if I do and still damned if I don't.""You should not think like that. This time, it is different

    Aakifahlynn spun around, looking everywhere, wondering what was going on. She then shouted, asking Jarrod if he knew what was happening and if anything like this had ever happened while he was there.Jarrod thought momentarily, then told Aakifahlynn that the last time this happened, Demarion's sister was kidnapped, and they locked down the empire.They did not make it far with her.Aakifahlynn shouted, and Jarrod heard her when she said, "The emperor went through all this for the disgraced emperor's sister?"But before he could correct her and tell her the Emperor was not disgraced, nor ever was he. It was like an alarm went off in Aakifahlynn's head—the thought of her parents struck her. She needed to know if they were safe, her concern overriding everything else."Oh my goddess, my parents," she shouted over the blaring again. And an excited Jarrod, forgetting all about the Emperor, almost jumped up and down, jumping out of his seat, "Oh Goddess, my dear old friend is here." His e

    Aakifahlynn was sorry she missed the opening but was too busy recovering from draining her strength after healing folks at a hospital and then having to recuperate. Nevertheless, she told him not to let her absence keep him from moving forward in their adventures; she would show up when she could to check on things.Plus, Aakifahlynn preferred the surprised visits; keeping him on his toes is always better. However, she must admit he still had that eagerness to help in any way she wanted after their encounter that faithful day she visited the Stygian.Nevertheless, Aakifahlynn learned that Taisiya does not exist, literally. She was found washed ashore at the age of sixteen with no family.And this Jarrod had confirmed as he lived it. He was there when Jairus brought her home. Taisiya had woven a web of lies throughout her life, leaving a lingering mystery about her true identity. Even Spencer, who had his men gather all the intel, was unsure. But he went on to explain his spy's find
