Sterling looks at his young friend with his mouth open. He can't understand what he says. The scents that reached his nostrils were powerful and came from all directions.Victor and Silver don't know whether to go to him or let Aurelius get closer. But Sterling's lack of response keeps Aurelius standing by his father's side.Sterling tries to identify the smells that mix and starts to panic. At that moment, his parents approached him.- Calm down Sterling. You've never smelled things before and you're overwhelmed. Breathe evenly and calm your heart. Let your wolf help you. – Victor says.Sterling tries to calm his heart and normalize his breathing. After 58 years without any major news, it was all extraordinary. Did he hear well? Did Aurelius say he was his mate?He finally calms down, while his father caresses his back. Breathing normally, he isolates Victor's scent, which is so faint and subtle, that it surprises Victor that her son smells it.- I don't know the name of your scent,
Vlad's secretary appears lurking in the doorway of Orfeus' room.- Sir, everything is ready. The General wants to speak to you.Vlad gets up and Orfeus looks at his father and his untouched drink.“Fuck, drink that shit before you leave.” – he thinks.Vlad was about to put the glass down, but then he kept it in his hand.- I'll take it with me. As for you, you are free again. I'll remove the guards.Vlad, with the glass in hand, leaves his son's room, dismisses the guards, and follows his secretary.When they arrive at the throne room, the secretary asks:- Do you want me to keep your drink until my lord finishes the meeting?Vlad looks at the drink and then at the secretary. He needed a drink, but he wasn't going to drink at the moment.- It's of the best quality. You can drink it if you want. I don't want it anymore.Vlad hands over the glass and enters the throne room, leaving the secretary outside.The Secretary's nerves were so upset that he didn't even hesitate. He drinks the en
Vlad was furious. The time for the departure to attack the mutts' pack had arrived and no one had been able to find Orpheus. It wasn't enough that Romeo was in an uncertain part, either by his own will or kidnapped by the mutts, now Orpheus was missing without facing punishment. Vlad knew that much of Orpheus's fault for being like this was his, but deep down he also knew that he was ambitious and had a bad character.Apparently, he had a son who wanted him dead. No, a son that had tried to kill him. There was no crime more heinous than trying to kill the king. How could he forgive Orpheus, simply because he was his son?The orders are explicit, no one sleeps until Orpheus is found. Secret passages, old hiding places, closed rooms, closets, whatever it is, everything must be seen and searched, to ensure that he wasn't hidden there. Vlad knew it was impossible for him to have left the palace. Even with his super speed, he hadn't had time.That his secretary had died was another headach
Flashback- Sir, Claudius is here. – the beta says at the entrance to the door of the king's office.- Make him come in quickly. I'm in a hurry to talk to him.The beta moves aside for Claudius to pass, but when he goes in to close the door, Aethelwulf says:- Alone!The beta freezes looking at the king. It was the first time he had been asked to leave a real meeting. Once again, the man's already wounded heart shatters. He leaves and closes the door behind him, without saying a single word.Claudius looks at the king with a horrible smile on his face. The man was scary, even without doing anything about it. His shaved hair and his skull tattooed with a skull, the absence of an eye, and the scars he had, probably made with silver, made the evil energy that the man emanated, intimidate the bravest.- Welcome, Claudius. I have a mission for you.- Well, I imagine you didn't invite me to have tea.- Sit down.Claudius advances and sits opposite the king. He crosses his legs and leans bac
Romeo runs to the bathroom, almost knocking over Julius who was coming in with a tray with a glass of blood. These first days of pregnancy were hard for Romeo. He couldn't take anything in his stomach, and since he was limited to drinking blood, Julius didn't know how to help.He puts down the tray and runs after Romeo, who, leaning over the toilet, tries to vomit the nothing he has in his stomach.Julius kneels beside him and rubs his back to calm him, but the effort of vomiting on an empty stomach makes Romeo anxious.Julius helps him get up and takes him to the washbasin where he washes his mouth with the most unhappy look in the world.- I've never been sick in my life. I didn't know that pregnancy was worse than being sick.Julius smiles and kisses him on the cheek.- I'll ask Baltazar to ask the doctor if we can go there.- It's not worth it. This should be normal.- Yes, it must be, but you only eat blood. We, the werewolves, when food doesn't sit well in our stomachs, we try s
- Mother?With a giggle in her voice, she replies:- I'm not your mother, but you and all of your kind are my children.- Moon Goddess?- Yes, it's me Lycaon. - He looked around, but he wasn't in his room. He didn't know where he was and didn't recognize the dense forest.- Don't try to understand how and where you are, Lycaon, because this is a simple dream. The forest only exists in your mind.- So I'm dreaming? Are you just a dream?- Yes, you are dreaming, but I'm not a dream. I used your dream to communicate with you.- What do you need from me, my Goddess?- There is no other way to say what I need to say to you. I can only be direct. I want to inform you that your time is near. You lived longer than any other of my children. I aimed for you to put an end to this war and save the love generated between Julius and Romeo.- Like between Lysander and Airon?- Yes, but we both failed with them. That love that I created started a war that destroyed many things, including the lives of
Orpheus had heard the royal troops leave and knew that his father had remained in the palace. He looks at the digital clock he had inside the hiding place and sees that the sun is about to set. With most of the troops gone, and few men looking for him, he knows it's time to follow his plan. Find Romeo, kill him and the mutt, and disappear to live luxuriously.What he left behind he could always come back to pick up in a few years. No one had ever found that hiding place and no one would ever find it. Especially now that he had locked it inside. The wall would simply be a wall on the other side.He takes the backpack he filled with money, gold, and diamonds, takes the last meal he would drink from inside a bag, and very slowly he advances through the untouchable tunnel that he had only crossed once, the day he discovered the exit of the passage.He walks for more than an hour, and when he finally reaches the iron staircase that leads down from the tunnel to the cave's roof, he carefull
Orpheus arrives in the city, it has not yet dawned. He was tired and needed a place to sleep. Sleeping in the forest wasn't something he wanted and he would never do it if he found a damn hotel with 24-hour service.Luck seems on his side, and he, using a false identification, unknown to his father, which he kept for his adventures among humans, stops at the reception.- Good evening sir. – the suspicious receptionist says.Although Orpheus was wearing branded clothing, his appearance after the long miles he had run was not the best.- Goodnight. I want your best room.- The best room, sir?- Are you deaf by any chance? Yes, your best room.The receptionist narrows his eyes and looks him up and down. At least the part of Orpheus he could see over the counter.Orpheus began to lose his patience, but he didn't want to do anything that would jeopardize his plan.- How it will be? You get me the room or you call your manager. I'm starting to get impatient. I haven't slept yet and I'm tire
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
