Camille entered the place she used to call home. Ten vampire warriors accompanied her, even if she tried to avoid it. Unfortunately, Xavier was adamant about her safety. He could not go with her this time as some of the lords on their new lands were not thrilled about the new rules. Yet his main concern was his Queen's trip. Who knew what was waiting for her in the witch's coven? There was no way he was going to take this risk. That is why those vampires were here with her. Camille looked around in utter shock. Was it the same place she remembered from her childhood? It was never full of life or the most cheerful, but now it looked like a ghost town. A few witches were wondering here and there, and none of them cared about the new arrival. Camille looked at her companions, but most of them just shrugged their arms. The witch motioned to the warriors and headed to the place that most likely would be occupied. She was not mistaken. When her group came closer to the main hall, angry
Two years later. Katherine was exhausted. Since she became the Queen, a lot of things have become a blur. For the first few months, days were not long enough to deal with everything. Greg was supporting her as much as he could, to the point when she was worried about him. Her mate was a vampire, but sometimes it seemed like he was overworking himself. Neverending meetings with lords and Alphas were draining him from all his energy. King Marcus could not be more right. It was not a task for one person. Katherine, on the other hand, was meeting with Lunas and vampire royals who wished to meet their new Queen. Of course, not everything was perfect. From time to time, she crossed paths with women who found her not suitable for her role. Most of them belonged to the higher vampire class. But Katherine was not the one to be easily intimidated. She wastes no time to show them their place. After that, as the Queen and Alpha, she was generally loved and respected. The most surprising thing
Katherine was looking at her newborn baby. She instantly fell in love with this tiny creature, who was now holding her finger tightly. - I am so proud of you. - Greg whispered, kissing her sweaty forehead. It was a long and painful delivery, but his Queen made it without complaint. Now, both of them were rewarded with a magnificent baby. Like her father, the girl had dark, fluffy hair and bright blue eyes. Her parents watched her, looking at her surroundings for the first time. - How will you name her?- Greg glanced at his bride. - I have not thought about this. Any ideas?- Katherine replied, not taking her eyes off the baby like it was her whole world. - You did the whole hard work; you should pick the name. I am sure it will be beautiful, just like our daughter. - The vampire King replied softly. Now, he had two women to love and protect with his life. Katherine remained silent for a while, thinking intensely. - What about Isabelle?- She finally spoke. - I love it. - Greg rep
- That's a monster, and we need to eliminate it. - Patricia said, thinking about her son's daughter. - Nothing like this should ever be born.Solomon watched his sister walking around the room. Since she came back, the Queen was fuming. - What do you want to do about that? - He asked without an interest. This child meant nothing to him as the vampire lord had more significant concerns than some hybrid. Since he lost everything, his life has been like a never-ending nightmare. Solomon used to live in luxury without bothering about anything. Now, after King Marcus stripped him of his title, he lived like an animal hiding in caves and woods. His old lands now belonged to Xavier, who became the King. There was nothing left of Solomon's glory, and that was painful. That is why he stayed by his sister's side, counting for some unexpected turn of events. But to his disappointment, Patricia was now obsessed with some child. - This is an abomination. - The old Queen mumbled, making her broth
Water was slowly breaking into her lungs, making it impossible to breathe. She was fighting against the ones holding her under the water, but she had no hope of winning it. Rejection and striping of the title were too much to handle. Her wolf, Lucy, was long gone, broken after what her mate did to them. Maybe it was better like that. At least she was not feeling what was happening. The vision became a blur because of the lack of air. Yet, she was still able to see his face. The one which she loved, touched, and kissed for years. Right now, it was contorted in a grimace while he held her tight, not to comfort her, but to kill. And the other one, but it doesn't matter anymore. She only wants to look at him. The one who betrayed her the most. Her mate. There is no more strength left. Her hands are slowly losing their grip and slipping down. The lungs are full of water. There is no air in them. When did her life fall apart? Why did she miss all those signals? They took everything, no
Katherine slept for most of the day. It looked like her body needed rest to regain strength after returning from the other side. She did not complain, as the sleep released her from all the thoughts invading her mind. She finally felt energized in the evening, ready to plan her next moves. If she was going to save her life, position, and pack, she always had to be one step ahead. Katherine underestimated her enemies, and this mistake couldn't be repeated. Soon, her husband returned to their bedroom, bringing food for them both. - I can't wait for tomorrow's visit. - Sean said when they sat at the table, enjoying a meal. His wife remained silent, focusing on her plate. - What is going on, honey?- He asked, touching her hand. The sparks shot up her arm, and she looked at it surprised. The woman forgot how it was to feel those sensations a long time ago. They were getting weaker and weaker as they parted from each other. One day, they disappeared completely. - Nothing, I am just th
There she was. Slender viper, which slowly crawled into their lives. Camilla. She stood beside her father, offering them her sweetest, welcoming smile. Only Katherine could notice it was not reaching her eyes. They were cold and calculating. - Welcome to our pack. - She spoke softly, stretching her hand. Sean quickly took it, kissing it gently, making Camilla blush. Katherine stood next to her husband, feeling like her blood had started to boil. ~Was it that early when he got interested in her?- She wondered. Seeing her husband could not take his eyes off the woman before him was painful. - It is nice to meet you, Katherine.- Camilla finally looked at her. - Luna Katherine. - She corrected the woman in front of her. Katherine would never do it to anyone, as she did not care about the titles, but she wanted to set the boundaries here. They were not equal. - Apologies, Luna, you are right. We do not know each other well enough to skip formalities. But I hope soon we will become
Camilla closed the door to her room and sat in her favorite chair, facing the window. She was watching like the dark clouds were slowly covering the night sky. It was getting darker and darker with every passing minute. The storm was coming, and you could hear the thunder in the distance. In an hour, the battery will be in full swing. Perfect weather, actually describing what was happening in her soul right now. The woman sitting in the dark was livid. The first part of her plan didn't go as planned. The Alpha and Luna of the Red Moon Pack left her pack, even if she did everything for them to stay. Camilla prepared herself for this meeting a long time ago. She has chosen her targets very carefully. The young leaders of the big pack are wise but without years of experience. Alpha was craving for the allies, as the times were tough recently. Many more miniature packs were long gone, thanks to the constant attacks of the rouges, vampires, and other bloodthirsty species. Life is brutal,
