Reed bows to the king and he laughs and hugs him.- Welcome nephew. Your aunt is very happy to see you again. How are your parents?- My father is busy with my older brother. Papers are something my brother hates.The king laughs.- I'm lucky my beta loves this shit. I end up doing almost nothing.- Sir, that's not true. I only help with non-important things, such as payments, orders, invoices.- And all the boring parts of dealing with queries and problems that arise in the packs. Conflicts, etc., that is, almost everything.Reed laughs.- Exactly what my brother wanted.- Your father is a great alpha. I don't say it because it's my family. Your brother will be too. – the king says, putting his arm around his nephew's shoulders. – let’s see your aunt. She's in the living room chewing her nails. Only because she's stubborn and isn't here with me.- The aunt looks like my father. She would be his equal if she were not my king's mate.They go to the living room, and along the way, Reed
When everyone enters the dining room, Reed is greeted with joy. Everyone present knew Reed and liked him, despite also knowing the antagonism between the prince and his cousin.When they sat down at the table, silence settled. The looks Julius gave everyone made them uncomfortable. Julius had done it intentionally. Always focus on his plan. Everyone was starting to eat, but the queen wasn't able to put up with that silence and started talking to Reed. After a short time, everyone started talking again, leaving Shane and Julius in silence.- Don't you agree Julius? – the queen asks, but Julius hasn't paid attention to anything that was said there.- What do you want me to agree with, mom?- By the Moon Goddess. But you're not hearing anything?- Conversations with this asshole? No, I'm not. I don't have the slightest interest in any conversations that involve him.- Julius! He just arrived. what the hell? We are all gathered here and you are full of spite. Do you think this is worthy o
When the sun rises, Julius is too anxious to stay in bed. He gets up, does his morning rituals, puts on his tracksuit, and opens a link to Shane.“Bro, are you still sleeping?”“To "still" sleep, I needed to have slept at all. I can’t stop thinking about what you’re going to do and Lorena.”“I'm ready to go train a little. Maybe it would be better to start this conflict on the training ground.”"Wait for me. I’m almost ready.”After 15 minutes, Shane knocks at the door and enters Julius' room.- Are you going to train too?- It would be suspicious if I was just there to watch.- Reed should be on the training field. Let's start this charade once and for all. I bet my dad is there watching Reed train.- My father and your mother too.They leave the room, go through the kitchen, eat something quickly, and go to the place where, since the sun had risen, hundreds of would-be warriors were training.Julius sees his father, the beta, and his mother sitting and enjoying the training.- Just
Lorena was still hours away from reaching the palace. She had gone most of the way without being able to get Shane's out of her head, and his taste of her lips. That left her confused. She had loved Romeo for so long. She had never had eyes for anyone else. What was so special about that idiot? He said she was his mate. She was human, she had no destined mates. But did being a werewolf's mate mean she now had one?Lorena continues walking and quickens her pace. She was tired and hungry, but she wanted to get to Romeo as quickly as possible.She was so distracted by her thoughts that she didn't even notice she was being watched. Red eyes had been following her for some time, hidden in the shadow of the forest trees. The figure did not have good intentions. Liliana was an easy prey for him.When the sun begins to hide behind the horizon, despite not being able to see it, thanks to the magic that covered it, Liliana knows that she is close to the palace. She smiles happily and runs the re
- Open the door. – The king shouts outside Julius’s room.Julius sitting on the bed looks at the door but says nothing. His father tried to open it, but the door was locked.- Julius, open the damn door immediately. I want to talk to you.- Are you going to use your commanding voice on me again? The Voice you swore you would never use on me? The voice that wasn't meant for a son?The king sighs.- Please Julius, open the door. we need to talk. – he says in a calm tone.- I'm lying down and have no plans to leave the bed or the room in the next few days.- Julius, don't act like a little pup.- I'm confused. Sometimes I'm an adult. Other times a child. Until you decide what I am, we have nothing to talk about.- I'm your father, Julius.- As my father, I ask you to leave me alone. I'm not going to open the door and I'm not going to leave my room for as long as I want. Now if you want to command me as my king, I will open the door, but you will no longer be a father to me. You will simp
When silence settled in the packhouse, Julius knew the time had come. Shane had entered his room a few minutes ago, with the excuse that he was there to close the window and curtains, collect the key, and lock the door, but they both knew he was there because he was afraid it would be the last time he saw Julius. The idea was torturing him. If things went wrong, how would he face the pack, knowing that he collaborated in that madness? How was he going to look his father in the eye and be close to the king and queen? Everything was so complicated.- I'll bring you news about Lorena when I get back. – Julius says, looking Shane in the eyes. – “If I come back” – he thinks, but without verbalizing. - Lycaon is already waiting for me a few miles away.- Yes. He said it would be too suspicious if you were caught crossing the border together. He said he was carrying two bags. I still can't get it into my head that he invented shift-resistant backpacks.- He had 900 years to think about all t
- So you're the famous Julius who left my nephew breathless? – Delilah said with a provocative look.Julius blushes slightly but meets the vampire's gaze.- And my lady is Romeo's famous aunt.- Oh, by the gods. Call me Delilah. – she says, rolling her eyes. – I'm not that old.Skyler snarls and earns an icy glare from Delilah.- You don't look a day older than 25.Skyler snarls again.- That's because she was mummified. When she was born, dinosaurs still walked the earth.Lycaon can't contain his laughter, and Delilah throws a vase at him. Lycaon puts down his head and saves himself from some pain. Skyler isn't so lucky, as she kicks him in the leg.- Ouch! Stupid witch.Julius couldn't help but laugh. Yes, he was in the presence of a vampire, the sister of the man who wanted him dead, and some damn old guys, and yet everyone seemed to behave like toddlers.Lycaon decides to stop all that confusion. They had a lot to do. The pack could discover Julius's absence at any time, but they
Julius almost sobs with the pain that tears through his chest. A small whimper leaves his mouth, and he turns to go back to the tunnel.He had waited too long. Romeo had given up waiting. He shakes so much that he can barely walk. Between the knife, he felt stuck in his chest and his eyes stinging from the tears he was trying to hold back, he could barely breathe. He needed to get out of there and finally cry or I just collapsed on the floor. When he reached Lycaon, the wolf would collapse… or he die.Romeo turns his face to the window, and when he sees Julius, he thinks he is still dreaming, but Julius shakes so much that it makes Romeo's senses wake up.- Julius? – he says as quietly as he can.Julius stops but doesn't turn around.- Julius? – Romeo repeats, lifting the blankets and getting out of bed.In less than 1 second, Romeo's arms surround Julius' waist and his forehead rests on the strong back of the man he loves and feared he would never see again.Julius still doesn't move
40 years later, Richard, the king of the werewolves, and Blessed, his mate and queen, enter, hand in hand, the grand palace that the three species built together. It was a magical and beautiful place, built by the hands of werewolves and vampires and hidden from the world by the magic of white witches. Wonderful flowers and trees that seemed to come out of fairy tales beautified the entire exterior. Witches, vampires, and werewolves made up all the members of the new kingdom. Still, the number of hybrids that existed there had never before existed in the same space, even before the war that separated them in the past. Two big werewolves who were copies of each other followed behind the king: the beta twins, sons of Shane and Lorena. Julius and Romeo, who reigned the werewolves' throne for years after transferring the royal pack and the kingdom to their eldest son, moved to the vampire palace, where they now reign after Vlad's retirement. They were already in the palace and got u
Two months after the peace treaty was signed, Julius and Romeo sat in Baltazar's living room with all their friends. They would leave that same day. First, they would visit Vlad in his palace, which terrified Romeo a little because the damned vision he experienced twice was still engraved with a hot iron on his chest. They would then travel to the royal pack, where they would live. Aethelwulf and Elena begged too many times for them go camo home, and they complied, despite doubts about what the other members would think. One thing that rested Julius was that his father had dedicated days to looking for his old general and everyone who accompanied him. He found them weakened and living like rogues in an isolated, sparsely fertile area. Aethelwulf surprised everyone when he humbly asked the general for forgiveness and repeated it with everyone who followed the general. The general and his companions agreed to return to the pack and settled well in their old homes. The general had
- Good afternoon. To what do I owe the honor of your visit? – Aethelwulf says without losing focus on all the men.One of the newcomers removes his helmet, with his back to the king but facing his passenger. Aethelwulf sees him helping the other guy, and when the man turns around, Aethelwulf falls to his knees.Julius was in front of him with a child in his arms. After Romeo removed his helmet, he returned the pup to Romeo. The remaining bikers took off their helmets and remained silent.Elena runs and throws herself into her son's arms in tears. Vlad didn't move for fear it was a new mirage. In the end, Reed was there.The beta and his mate, who is back in the royal pack with the twins, run toward Shane and throw themselves at him, causing him to guffaw at the impact.An irritated cough is heard, and Shane leaves his parents to pick up the twins so Lorena can get out of the sidecar.- Mom and Dad, this is Lorena, my mate, and Peter and Paul, our pups.Mere seconds were all it took fo
Skyler's wolf constantly screamed in his head, but the now-called Sky ignored it or didn't even hear it.Since entering the mist, Skyler had barely left the bed where the fairy queen kept fucking him at every opportunity.Skyler looked happy, but his wolf knew he was simply under the influence of fairy magic.He didn't know how much time had passed, and he didn't even realize that he hadn't just fucked the queen but that a large number of fairies had already used him, and another large number were waiting their turn.The fairies got pregnant from the fuck he gave, and their little bodies gestated so quickly that some of their daughters were already born.In a few days, all the fairies would have spawned new fairies thanks to him, and when they no longer needed him, they planned to do to him what they had done to all those before him.Despite owing her life to Skyler, fairies were not what the childhood tales of humans said they were. They were selfish and cruel beings who only thought
The guard smiles and sneaks out, leaving the two alone.- I, I what? I asked you a question. What did you say?Vlad smiles. Yes, he was annoying, shy, sensitive, and cute as hell brat, but he had a fire in his heart and blood.Vlad approaches Rafa until he is almost glued to him. Rafa shudders when Vlad reaches out but is disappointed when he grabs the trolley handle and drags it back to Rafa's room. - What are you doing? Please give me that. I'm leaving. Give me that.The guards behind Rafa move away when one pushes the other to get out of there.Vlad opens the bedroom door without ever looking back and enters the room. Always making a fuss, Rafa angrily enters behind him and throws his backpack on the floor.- Crap. Because you're king, you can't force me to stay.Vlad turns and passes Rafa. When he thinks he will leave without answering, Vlad closes the door and turns to the boy.- You asked what I said, so you must let me answer.Rafa blushes again but huffs and sits on the bed w
When Vlad enters the palace, the first thing he does is ignore the secretary, who “hovers” over him excitedly, wanting to know the next step. - Where is Rafa? - Who? – the confused secretary asks. - Idiot. – he says, making the secretary flinch. – Rafa, the boy who was in my room. - Oh, sir, I'm sorry. I'm very excited about the news and wanted to know if it's true and what I can do. - Yes, that's true, but where is Rafa? The secretary frowns and smiles inwardly. It's really true. Vlad is in love, and that makes the secretary happy. Nothing is better than a happy and passionate king to make his life go well. - I didn't see him, sir. It's probably in his room. The king turns his back and heads towards the back of the palace. As he is about to pass the door that separates the royal part from the servant part of the palace, he hears: - I'm glad he returned before the king noticed he was missing. You two are incompetent. How did you let him get away? If the king knows, you are no
When the first rays of sunlight come through the window and hit Julius and Romeo's faces, they open their eyes. Looking around and at each other, they didn't realize where they were or how they had gotten there.- Julius, oh Julius. - Romeo says, clinging to his lover.- Goddess, Romeu. My love. I was so afraid I would never see you again. - Where are we? – Romeo asks. - It looks like our bedroom in Baltazar's pack. - But it can't be. Us… - I don't understand either.They look at each other and smile.- No matter where we are. We are together.They cried and hugged each other. - I know no one could keep us apart. Not even our gods.They kiss, and it is the most beautiful kiss they share, They get up and go to the window. - It looks like Baltazar's pack. What's happening? Did I dream it all? – Julius asks. – I was trying to stop our parents’ fight. I killed myself in front of them. You were there. - Yes, and I killed myself too. I drank the vervain. - Yet we are here. Alive
When Rafa arrived, all hell had already broken loose. He looked at the man from behind a tree without anyone seeing him. He wanted to run to Vlad and get him out of there, but strangely, his body was paralyzed. His tears fell uncontrollably, seeing everything that was happening in front of him.Powerless, he saw everything without being able to do anything.Minutes passed without anyone daring to move.The guards and warriors faced each other, expecting that the kings would attack again or order them to fight at any moment, but nothing happened.Aethelwulf crawls until he can touch Julius's body. Then, like he did when Julius was a little pup, he cradles him in his lap.Vlad looks at him.Neither seemed to want to face each other again, but the fight was not guaranteed to be over. Neither one nor the other expected that outcome.In their minds, they would face each other, one of them would win, and in the heartbreak of losing his dad, the lovers would return home.They must have kno
- Tell me, did he go after Vlad?- Elena, he only took 20 men. It's not precisely the exact number for a battle.Elena holds out her hand with one of her embroidery pieces, she finished some time ago.- Look at this.Without fully understanding what she wants, he takes the cloth and looks at the drawing.- Beautiful, like all your embroidery.- Don't be an idiot. I know embroidery is not your cup of tea. Please look at the drawing and tell me what you think it is.The beta does what she says. He opens the cloth and looks carefully at the drawing. It was magnificent; it looked like a perfect painting. On the fabric, a figure lies down, probably dead, while two men throw themselves at each other in a bloody fight.The beta tilts his head, looking at the details, and turns white as plaster.He looks at Elena, then at the cloth, and without strength, he falls to his knees.Worried, Elena kneels in front of him.- I always knew you were special, Elena, my Luna, my queen. Your embroidery ha
