Raven's POV "Osric!" I call out through the link, when something in the sky catches my eye as a large object blocks the sun. I shift, feeling uneasy, and pull Gunnar and Roan close; we are outside enjoying the fresh air with Liliana, Freya, and their pups. "I'm with Gideon, what's wrong Raven?" Osric questions, when my eyes widen realizing the large object is a fucking dragon. "Osric! Embry! Jonathan!" I position myself in front of my family, as the large black and gold dragon lands in front of us in the large field we are have been laying in. "Raven!" I hear my mates, my heart racing in my chest as I focus on the giant, lizard like, reptile in front of me. The dragon is almost the size of the pack house, and the gold edges of his scales glisten under the sunlight when the creature stretches its wings before folding them against its body. "Who are you?!" I demand, forcing my aura out over the dragon, knowing they're shifters like lycans and werewolves. "Raven, get back!" I feel o
Raven’s POV"Then you may have her, you will deliver Dagon a message for me. If he harms one hair on my sister's head or touches Freya, he is as good as dead. I will surrender myself, make sure to tell him to be careful what he wishes for," I watch the dark-haired woman's eyes widen when I throw her to Draig, like it is nothing. In all honestly it is an easy decision, he deserves justice for his mate, I know the pain of feeling your mate die and I am not about to deny him justice and revenge."Kitty, can you help Mum take all the kids inside and help keep a close eye on them?" I request, glancing over to see her and Nikki picking up Gunnar, Roan, and Anarchy as Mum grabs Aiden."Already on it, we have Raulin securing your suite for us to watch them, Phoenix, Rhys come," Kitty reaches out for Rhys' hand, making him shake his head."Rhys listen to her as if she is me, we can trust these people," Draig reassures his son, then looks to Kitty and Nikki who both nod."Now!" Draig growls, gr
Raven’s POV"What do we do now?" I ask when everyone is dressed. Unsure of what to do next, I look to Osric then Ryder as he stands beside Vaari and shakes his head."What do you mean, what do we do now? Are you kidding me Raven, you just put Gideon in his place like a child throwing a tantrum. You know we need to go after Freya and Liliana! If you don't go after my mates, I will do it myself!" Ryder growls, stepping closer to me, Osric cautiously pulls me behind him and growls at Ryder."Don't you dare take your anger out on Raven, she is doing the best she can and right now, she is the best chance of getting them back safely," Osric scolds Ryder, as Jonathan's hand slips into mine making me look up to see Embry standing protectively on my other side."I've never seen such insubordinate subjects, nor such protective kings of a queen who acts as a king," Draig comments making my mates growl while I smirk, finding his comment amusing."Raven is anything but an ordinary queen. Lycans ar
Raven’s POV "Mumma Raben is you weally going to bring Aunty Lily and Aunty Fweya home by staying wid da bad man?" Phoenix looks up at me with worry filled eyes, as I notice Rhys watching me get Gunnar to latch. "I will do what I have to in order to bring them home, it’s what I would do for any pack member, especially my sister. Dagon won't be able to hurt me," I explain, when Mum stands up and places Roan in my arm as she begins to fuss. "Can you move my dress so she can latch on as well?" I ask, sliding Roan down in my arms so she is at the right level to nurse. "Of course, here." Mum pulls the shoulder of my dress down, so it exposes me for Roan to latch. "Thank you, how are you doing Rhys?" I question, seeing him look around the room as he shrugs at my question. "I'm sad about my mom; I've been showing Phoenix the ABC book," Rhys answers, holding up his book, then looking down at my daughter in my arms. "I'm very sorry about your mom, I made sure to let your dad deal with the
Raven’s POV“Come here, both of you sit down with me. Let me see Anarchy, I can hear her sucking on her lip wanting to nurse,” I sit up so Jonathan can sit behind me again. Osric grabs Roan from me and begins to pat her back then sits on the bed next to the lounge.“Osric’s right, you better come back to us in one piece. I don’t think I can handle three more babies without any of you.” I watch my mates faces as they realize I’m telling them I’m pregnant with triplets.“Three?” Embry’s brow furrows as Jonathan sits behind me after placing Anarchy in my arms, and I nod my head. “Gideon did say children,” Osric watches me as I get Anarchy to relax and latch.“How do you know, you’re not very pregnant?” Jonathan asks while running his fingers through the long parts of my hair.“Ow, her fangs are sharp… Mummo told me when I saw her in my realm.” I wince feeling Anarchy’s small fangs sink into my nipple so she can feed on blood while nursing.“I imagine they’re like little needles. Better g
Maturity Warning: Sex, BL, MMMFJonathan’s POV“She’s going to kill you if you sneak out tonight.” Embry watches me as I start the shower, trying to distract my mind from worrying about Freya and Liliana.“She might, but I don’t know if I can walk away from Raven, again. Yeah, she knows I’m going and she’s ok with it, but to walk away when I know she is carrying our pups…” Embry cuts my rambling off as he shoves me back against the wall and presses his lips to mine.“Shut up, you will give her tonight. All of us together, one good night before you bring the rest of our family home. You’re not just coming back for Raven or our pups, you’re coming back for Osric and you’re coming back for me. If something happens to you, I swear, Raven will be the least of your problems.” Embry growls at the end of his declaration, as his chest heaves making the corner of my mouth turn up into a smirk.Seeing Embry like this stirs my arousal, causing my cock to come alive desperate with need for my mate
Maturity Warning: Sex, BL, MMMFJonathan’s POV“What are you waiting for?” Osric purrs in my ear, then nips at my mark while releasing my cock and guiding me forward. “Just admiring the view,” I admit, watching Raven’s chest moving with each breath as she squirms in Embry’s grip, clearly wanting more attention.“Jonathan,” she whines with a pouty lip, making all three of us chuckle at the desperation and desire we see in her eyes and feel through the bond.“I’m right here, you’re so beautiful with Embry holding you open and ready for me.” I press my chest against hers as my cock slips through her wet lips against her clit making her gasp.I reach down between us and grab Embry, then tease her with his cock, making both of them whimper and groan in anticipation. “Do you want Jonathan and I to take you while Osric takes Jonathan?” Embry growls at me, slipping his cock between her lips resting just against her entrance.“I want my mates,” she whimpers with her head lulling against Embry’
Jonathan's POV"Da Jon can I brush your hair?" Phoenix looks up at me from the floor when I walk down stairs. I smile and nod when I see she is sitting with Rhys coloring. "Yeah, why not," I nod, walking over to the couch and sit down."Yay, Rhys do you want to help?" Phoenix wrinkles her nose while jumping up excitedly. "Ok," Rhys shrugs with a look of confusion before Phoenix darts out of the room."What is she doing?" Kitty looks at me quizzically when she walks through the door with Aiden in her arms sucking on a piece of melon. "Phoenix is probably getting a brush, I told her she could brush my hair before I go to get Liliana and Freya," I move over so Kitty can sit on the couch with me."Oh, she looks very excited. How are you doing, I know it can't be easy having Raven so stressed out?" Kitty watches me with a sympathetic look as I watch Rhys move over and sit in front of Aiden making silly faces at him. "She is, we're all worried, we know Dagon will use Freya to get the inform
Raven's POV 17 years later "Rhys, Draig, it is great to see you, I'm glad you came when I sent word," I greet Rhys and his father at our front gate. "I came as soon as I got word of what happened to Roan, how the hell did something like this happen under your nose?" Rhys demands in a deep threatening tone. "Rhys," Draig hisses at his son's lack of respect. "No, it's quite alright Draig, he is her mate and I would rather see him protective of my daughter than not care at all. My mates and I wondered the same thing; Jonathan tore apart the young man's mind, then killed him after finding he raped her to shame her for being a better warrior. He was hoping to break her, thinking she was a threat to his position among the guard. He got Roan alone when she was expected to be out riding," I explain while leading our way through the stone corridors towards our chambers where Roans quarters are. "Who was meant to be with her?" Rhys growls when we reach the stairs that lead to our chambers. "
Osric's POV Once Raven is face to face with Dagon, I slam my sword into the ground creating a barrier around them keeping everyone out, and more importantly, them in. "No, you have no choice but to face your past," Bane forces his way forward and speaks through me. It has been a very long time we have waited to watch Dagon face his proper punishment. "Once Dagon is gone, there will be no more fighting, if you wish to continue to threaten our world be prepared to live in a dark cell for the rest of your short life before you are executed! This war has been going on for far too long, and it ends now!" Liliana calls out above everyone, who slowly stops fighting to watch Raven and Dagon, to see how this battle will truly end. "Lower your weapons if you wish to survive past this battle! Now!" Ryder orders, stepping up behind his mate. "Lace your hands together behind your heads and kneel for my people to take you in," Ingvar adds, before motioning for his soldiers to cuff those who surre
Raven's POV "Ready?" Osric asks, once he has tightened the last buckle on my new, black dragon scaled, armor that Draig brought me as a gift. "I think so, this armor is incredibly light and flexible," I mention while twisting and turning to test how comfortable I am in it. "Good, it's been spelled to move with your body, to shrink and stretch with your shift. Lycan form, wolf form or human, you will stay in your armor it'll adjust to your body; Draig recruited mine and Phoenix's help," Osric confesses, I turn to face him and wrap my arms around his uncovered torso that shows of his beautiful tribal tattoos. "You are incredible," I whisper before standing on my tip toes and kissing him. "Is everyone ready?" I watch Embry walk in as he adjusts his kilt while tucking in his white tunic. "Yes, Eya and Bjorn have the little ones in the safe room, where Thane, and an entire company of guards will be stationed to protect them," Jonathan answers, adjusting his cuff links when he appears beh
Ryder's POV The vampires were easy to convince to host the summit, once they realized Liliana and I were fair to their people. They quickly learned that we wanted to lead them with respect and kindness and in return gave us the same respect. Yeah, there were a few rebellious types but we dealt with them when the time came. Ulric and Gregor agreed to share the position as my second in command and have helped me navigate being king. Without them I would have floundered finding my footing, but once I earned the respect of the kingdom things came naturally. Learning that Freya didn't plan to rule with the same iron fist and fear as her father helped, it gave voices back to those who had kept silent for centuries. Shortly after getting our kingdom in order, I recruited Ares and Phoenix's help to find the hybrids and their leaders. We found small pockets of hybrids among packs, covens, in rogue communities and among humans. They were afraid when found but eventually came around, thanks to
Maturity Warning: Sex, BLBenjamin's POVHelping King Osric has been an honor, and for the most part, easy. The lycans and werewolves are happy to follow their kings' and queen's position on fighting Dagon. King Silas, king of the rogues, was the hardest to find and convince out of all the wolves. I don't blame him either, he's watching over many of our people who have been born outside packs, and aren’t welcome because of prejudice.In all honesty, the witches have been the hardest to convince, even with Helena and Phoenix helping smooth the way. It was only when Osric joined us, revealing Odin, that the leaders of the covens began to trust us. Phoenix enjoyed being around the witches and made friends with everyone she met.Nine months later; July 15th, the day before the summit."Daddy, wake up!" I hear yelled as I roll over in bed, hearing Ares still snoring beside me. "Papa! Make Daddy get up, we need to go to breakfast, the witches are coming!" Phoenix climbs onto our bed and beg
Ingvar's POVNine months I was given to gather the support of the human realm and that is the time it took to convince my government that the lycans, werewolves, vampires, dragons, witches and hybrids were real, and not a threat.In the beginning, my leaders thought it was a joke. I was bounced around from superior to superior to plead my case, it took me bringing in King Draig, Alpha Benjamin, his pup Phoenix and Lord Gregor to meet the Finnish Prime Minister and President with me, for them to finally believe the reality of our situation.Once I was able to properly plead my case, not only did I get the full support of my nation, but all surrounding nations who were aware of Dagon’s broadcast. During their own investigations of the supernatural species, they discovered many were peaceful and few were aggressive. Other nations were already aware of supernatural species and live in peace with them. They were thrilled to help garner permanent peace and end the threat many of them were w
Draig's POV Trying to gather the clans together to fight Dagon, has been a monumental task to say the least. The dragons aren't afraid of him, but they should be, they didn't see the magic his followers wielded or the control he has over them. Honestly, I'm not sure I would have believed it if I hadn’t seen it firsthand, I still can't believe the smug look on his face when he faced Osric. It didn't matter how I explained the danger to each clan, they still had a hard time believing me. It wasn't until I captured one of his sycophants, with the help of Alpha Benjamin and Ingvar, that they finally believed the power Dagon possessed and took the treat seriously. Even with proof, my people were still reluctant to participate in the summit, they thought we should stick to our own but eventually gave in, sending people form each clan to the summit with a reserve of warriors. The plan Ingvar suggested to Kings Osric, Embry, Jonathan and Ryder was for the dragons to be on the outside, trap
Liliana's POVWalking out onto the landing at the top of the stairs that lead to the courtyard, with Anarchy nestled in my arms, I can hear cheering. Peering out I see warriors surrounding the center mat where I see Ryder duck under a woman's foot when she tries striking him with a round house kick."Look, Daddy's showing his warriors what kind of man he is," I speak proudly. Pulling Anarchy higher up, I face her towards the training grounds and let her back and head rest against my chest and shoulder. "And he is doing well." Freya walks up behind me with Aiden in her arms as Alana stands behind on her other side."Watch how they both move, she's very well trained," I comment, pointing out how graceful both Ryder and this woman’s moves are; it's like watching a dance. "Rayna has been trained by Gregor since she was a girl, she's the only woman here who is properly trained, she can beat any man here except Gregor, Ulric and Christian," Alana explains, as I continue to watch Ryder shift
Ryder's POV "Gregor, I had planned to talk to you later but now seems like a perfect time. I plan to overhaul the training program, I want to open training to women, children and everyone without a title, everyone will train. I also wish to break down daily training, mornings will be for children as the first part of the school day, afternoons will be introductory training for women and those who have had no access to training, evenings will be for intermediate adults, and there will be a second group in the evenings for elite skilled warriors who will now be called Deltas," I explain, Gregor and the trainers who have gathered all nod as they take in the changes. "I will not have anyone in this castle defenseless nor will things be separated by status. Eventually we will be integrating hybrids into the kingdom and we will fight to defend them." I earn disgruntled chatter among some of the warriors at my mention of hybrids. This time I let Christian stand to face me when he speaks ou
