SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 68: THERE'S NO NEED
A year later...Elena's POVIt has been nearly two years we've raised our little girl and unexpectedly welcomed our baby boy just months after our heist."Grab Guinevere so I can nurse, Godfrey," I said passing off our eldest. "We have such a good life since we left court," my mate, Gavin cooed. "Yeah," I dryly said thinking about the betrayal it took to get here. "Are you okay?" Gavin asked. "I miss Ruby. The guilt is still there from what I did to her," I sighed. "Me too but look where we are now. We finally have that family we always wanted, land, and werewolves that don't know who we truly are," he pointed out. "Yeah, could you imagine if we had hid out in Tirado like Angelica told us to? We would have been found out, bound to horses, and ripped apart by the limbs," I cringed thinking of the sight. "I'm glad we disobeyed her advice too. I'm not sure if she would have cared. The evil bitch only cared to rid a bastard child from its mother, her daughter. Although, it is clear that t

Essex POV"Join me in a bath, will ya?" I asked Rose the moment she sashayed into the washroom. "How could I ever refuse you?" She smirked undressing herself. "Feed me those strawberries," I ordered her once she sat next to me in the warm water. "I have a strawberry I would love to feed you," she giggled. "I would love to indulge but we must save something for our future wedding night," I replied deflecting. "Whenever that is," she murmurred rolling her eyes. "Rose, when the time comes for us to wed, I want it to be special, okay?" I reminded her reassuringly. "I know," she blushed. "When we get out I will oil your body and I promise to take good care of you afterwards," I said kissing alongside her neck. "Okay," she shivered stepping into the bath.I held true to my word and oiled every inch of her body. With my every touch, there was a body part that reacted. She was aroused, but my mind wandered to Octavia. I pretended it was her that lay underneath my body as I dug deep into her s

Rose's POVThat was it. The moment I feared for so long. There he stood with some she-wolf who clearly rejected his advances. She was his mate. How could he bring me all the way up here only to chase a bastard? My heart was breaking. On the long ride home the next day I hadn't uttered a word. Even after catching him in the act, I was too shocked after I witnessed what happened. He did not want to speak with me nor I him. Essex had no clue why I had a sudden shift in mood until we made it back to my family's palace."I cannot believe you would do this to me, to US!" I exclaimed. "Rose, you know I would never hurt you intentionally," He said trying to grab my hand but I pulled away. "You're lying! You're a fucking liar, Essex! It's been four years!" I reminded him before throwing a plate at him. "Calm down! I found my mate! What would you have me do if you found yours? Huh?" he asked. "I found my mate but I still chose YOU!" I shouted. "Are the rumors true then? Was your mate my brothe

Ruby's POV"Mother! You came!" I desperately called out. "Ruby? Why have you sent a message by a servant?" she asked appalled. "Do not think of yourself so highly that you cannot meet your own daughter! I need your help," I pleaded. "Why would I help you? You are a traitor and a murderer," my mother spat. "With everything you took from me, you owe me! Why haven't you let me see my daughter, Vidalia? I entrusted her to you and now you keep her hidden from me after everything!" I whisper shouted. "I owe you nothing! You have disgraced this family over and over. I will NOT let you drag me or Vidalia down with you!" She snapped back. "I would choose my words carefully," I said inconspicuously pulling my knife out from my belt.I backed down once I spotted my little brother, Lex step from behind a tree. My mother retreated back toward the palace."Now, now, sister. I know she could be a hand full but killing her would only place an even bigger target on your back," Lex smirked before pulli

Queen Antionette's POV Flashback... Carol showed up a little while after I made it to the border. I could have murdered her, but I needed her if I was going to kill Vincent for good. Besides, I couldn't prove that she had betrayed me, but she would be my slave! "How did you escape?" I asked out of breath. "I don't remember. I woke up on the back of a cart covered in these," she said point at a gash on her forehead and cuts on her arms. "Let's get home. How did he know we would be there?" I asked trying to sound helpless. "I-I don't know, my queen, but he will pay for this," she grunted. "After all Vincent has done to us, he should die for this. He did try to have you and your mate killed," I reminded her. Her body went rigid, but she gave no other indication that she knew what was going on. When the time came, I would have to murder my best friend, Carol for being a traitor or so I thought. Present day... "Have the drapes been dusted, puff pastries warmed, and floors cleaned?" I

McKenna's POV "What's his problem? Did you finally tell him off?" Jubilee joked. "It is nothing to be concerned about. He may not be on board with our entire plan, but he will get there," I replied pecking his lips. "I love you and I want you to know if there is anything I should know. Please don't keep it from me, okay?" He asked. "What about you? Is there anything I should know before I am hit in the face with it?" I asked. "Now is not the time for it. I promise that after we get what we need during the coronation, I must tell you my secret," he sighed. "And you'll tell me yours," he added kissing my forehead. I watched him load our horses with everything we needed. He didn't know what I was hiding and I have no intentions of telling him that I loved both him and Lincoln. It's too painful to even consider the possibility of it. I would never admit that to myself or anyone for that matter. I bear his mark and will forever remain loyal to him until the day one of us dies."Long day?

Octavia's POV "Hurry your ass!" I shouted at Aiken. "Don't lose your britches! I'm coming!" He called out. "Jamela probably thinks we were kidnapped by now since we haven't shown," I said rolling eyes. "I'm here. I'm here," he grumbled throwing his bags over his shoulders. "So glad you could make it," I said rolling my eyes again. "Thanks to you I had an extra three weeks of torture. Remind me why you volunteered to stay longer again. Wait, your ego," he laughed. "Hush that filthy mouth of yours. I did no such thing," I laughed. Both Aiken and me were excited to set out for revenge. Leaving Foxchase was enough to put fire up under us. This place was no easy feat, but it made us better. While we were here, Aiken filled me in on his mother, Carol's betrayal. Now, the Queen knows he is not dead. She hasn't uttered a word of this to the elders though. I'm wondering why, but she never does anything without an agenda. It clearly benefits her somehow. "Aiken, be nice to the others," I war

Oliver's POVBefore the coronation…"GUARD!” Alpha Lex of Tirado sounded off.He did this when he felt there was an in enemy threat lingering near. Alpha Lex was extra jumpy today for some reason."I expect the four of you to protect my betrothed upon her arrival to Klaus today," his voice boomed.We all nodded in agreement. I was the first to volunteer when the Knight commander gave out assignments. I guess I know why he's jumpy now. Apparently, he's slowed down his monstrosity to appropriately mate with my sister. The thought sickened me because I wished to kill the bastard and his brother, Essex for hurting my sister."No funny business! Alpha Lex will have your heads if anyone of you even look at Lady Octavia," the knight commander said before leaving us in the hall.I knew what my role was. My mother and fathers had it all figured out, but whatever Octavia planned to do was still a mystery."You four must be the new knights," Octavia said with a mischievous grin. "Yes, my lady,"

SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 100: I WANTED IT TO END
Octavia's POVThe hours ticked by but mentally I was absent from the present. I missed Jubilee. He was my father, a best friend, and a teacher. If he were here he would tell me to get my shut together. But he’s not….I sighed before heading to check on Violet. "Are you going to be okay?" I asked Violet. "I cannot believe Killian hurt you in plain sight. What do you think triggered his anger this time?" I asked exasperated. "I know Killian attacked me because he was pissed to see me with Oscar again, but I think it had to happen. I no longer have to carry Lex's pup. I know I shouldn't be happy for such things, but I was going to end my life once the pup was born," she confessed. "What?!" I asked in shock. "Yeah. I was going to walk off of the cliff or drink too much and drown myself. There were endless possibilities and I thought of them all," she shrugged. "Well, I'm glad you're okay," I said rubbing her forehead. “Me too, thanks to my little sister, Vidalia," she smiled. "Yeah, I'm
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 99: IT'S A SETUP
Alpha King Vincent's POV "It's been a long time," I heard a familiar voice say. It was the voice of someone I would kill before the night was over. "Elena! You bitch! How dare you show your face around here! Where's my pup?” I growled catching her by the throat. "D-Death is imminent. You reek of it," she croaked. "Is that a threat?" I asked nearly crushing her wind pipe just as I heard the ripping of flesh behind me. I tossed Elena to the ground. I placed my foot on her neck so that her face stayed buried in the dirt. "NO! There’s no fucking way!" I shouted over the thunderous cries of Lex's mother and a disappointed growl from his father. How is this possible? There's no way her wolf should have been able to defeat Lex's. Black magic! That's the only reason this would happen. That's it. She’s a WITCH! "Somebody has killed our warriors in the dining hall!" I heard Lawrence growl just as I heard screams erupt in front of me from Violet who looked to have been injured. "KILL THEM
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 98: ON MY HONOR
Octavia's POV"When does your father return?" I asked Essex. "I heard word was sent a few days ago where I'm sure he's been held up with one of his whores," he replied rolling his eyes. "And your mother is just okay with that?" I asked annoyed. "I think she tries not to think about it. Regardless of what you may think of my mother, she has always done her best to raise us alone while my father fought in wars, chased whores, and beat her. She's not perfect, but I will protect her until my last breath," he sighed. "As I expect you to. How did you turn out to be...YOU? Lex is a manipulative little cunt, but you seem more honest. Why did you give up your claim to the Kingdom of Tirado?" I asked. "My father convinced me to do so. The Kingdom of Cassius would be a good move for the kingdom of Tirado. If only I had known Rose’s father never intended for me to take over. Apparently, I wasn't good enough to follow him or my father. I trained harder, ran faster, and became smarter than them bot
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 97: YOU'RE GOING
Taysia's POV "You're going and that's final!" My father shouted at me. "Father, I cannot go back to Tirado. Alpha Lex hurt me!" I cried. "You set yourself up for what we he did! Are you upset that he chose the bastard over you?" My father growled. "NO! I swear it doesn't matter! Duke Sayid is my mate!" I protested. "Then what is the matter with you?" He snapped. "Father, do not make her go back. He is a maniac! Tell him what he really did to you!" Rose interjected. "Well?" My father asked and I shook my head in shame. My father stormed out enraged, but not before mandating that both me and Rose be there for the challenge. "You should have told father that Alpha Lex shoved the same disgusting pole he beats his horses with in your lady River! What are you afraid of? Shame? Embarrassment? He should be the one feeling those things! Not you!" Rose said furiously. "I know! Okay! I cannot face him. My mate is off on a mission so I cannot confide in him. In his letter, he says what he wen
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 96: WHY CAN’T YOU UNDERSTAND?
Adelina' POV"When are you going to tell him?" Romeo asked. "Not now, Romeo! You're stressing me out!" I shouted. "Talk to me! Is this about your parents?" he asked. "Can you both stop yelling? I'm trying to focus on my painting," Romeo's sister, Vidalia interrupted.Vidalia and I had been friends since we were pups. Lately, she's been a shell of herself. All she does is paint, train, and pottery ever since she split off from her parents."No! I mean, yes! Romeo, I want to be with Oliver. Please! Why can't you understand?" I asked frustrated. "Addie, I love you. Why can't you see that?" he asked. "I know," I grunted pushing past him. "If I may," Vidalia spoke up again. "What's stopping you from accepting Romeo as your mate? You're carrying his pup and your actual mate, Lawrence is running for his life. Not to mention, your true mate, Oliver if I understand it well, has accepted your rejection. I'm certain he knows that you're not carrying his pup by now," Vidalia explained.She paused
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 95: HIDDEN AGENDAS
Alpha King Lincoln's POV "Did you work him up?" I asked Violet. "Of course I did. I found the Tirado Crest as requested. It was right where his mother said it would be. Why do you all need it?" She quizzed. "It used to belong to Alpha Queen Lenora. I cannot believe it is in such good condition," I smiled. "Octavia should wear it for the challenge," she interrupted. "Precisely," I agreed. I'm sure Octavia would welcome this gift. Once Lex lays his eyes on it, I only hope it would be a reminder that he should not lead any pack. My thoughts momentarily stopped as Oliver and Jamela barged into my quarters. "My apologies, your grace, but this is urgent! Tell him what you told me," Oliver ordered Jamela. "O-okay. Klaus has been over run with Vincent's warriors!" she blurted. "THEY DID WHAT?" I roared slamming a nearby table to the ground. "UNFUCKING BELIEVABLE!" I growled sounding the alarm. Within a matter of seconds, Beta Felius came running into my chambers followed by Gamma Julius.
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 94: EVERYBODY HATES YOU
Alpha Lex's POVOn my way to my study, I nearly toppled over the she-wolf, Jamela. She scowled as I smirked at her trembling stature. I for one couldn't wait to see Alpha Santak. He would easily kill her with his bare hands. Too bad he's a part of Vincent's plan to take Klaus. I was happy when he whisked the Duke away too. If I'm lucky, he will die in the inevitable war. A look of disgust crept to my face the moment I spotted Octavia's parents, but I couldn't resist engaging."I see you two are wishing your sweet daughter luck. It's a good thing too because she's going to need it," I chuckled, but Alpha King Lincoln had me pinned to the wall in mere seconds. "How dare you address me as if I'm your equal, pup! You may roll around with scum like Vincent, but you must know he was never born to be an Alpha even if he shares the blood line. A true Alpha doesn't hold the red colored eyes like a rogue!" He growled cutting off my circulation.When he released his forearm from my throat I fel
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 93: TURNING BACK
Jamela's POV "Are you ever going to return?" Elena asked over supper. "Eventually, I have to face him," I sighed. "You didn't kill Lily! Stop letting your father, Alpha Santak get into your head," Elena snapped. "He has everyone searching for me like a maniac, but I'm not giving in that easily. I just need proof that I didn't do it," I explained. "Well, Oliver will understand. He could even help. I'm certain that he would," she reasoned. "His hands are much too full," I said dismissively. "Very well, stubborn little she-wolf. I hope you don't eat your words one day," she said clearing the table. I'm not sure why I returned to Foxchase. It could be that I knew Octavia would always know where I was or at least assumed. Maybe Oliver would come and save me from my terrible reality. Elena helped settle me in, especially after I updated her with the awful truth of the kingdoms going to shit. I wasn't sleeping, such as a night like tonight without having horrendous nightmares. Elena final
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 92: FEELING DISGUSTED
Violet's POVKillian had yet to sense me near. I was carrying a pup for Tavi's now husband and I felt disgusted. I had no desire to set eyes on Oscar. He would be disgusted with me as I was with myself, but I needed to face the monster he had become."I'll escort you down," Oliver said grabbing my hand. "Me too," Quinn joined grabbing my other hand. "Did you manage to rescue my pups? Killian is here. He would never suspect," I said frantically. "Calm yourself, please. Aiken, Tilly, and a few others have already departed. It shouldn't be long now," Oliver responded. "Thank you," I whispered. "There's no need to thank us. You are not well. We must get you the help you require. Staying held up in that small space isn't exactly helping. You should be here with family. Alpha King Lincoln has pushed for your removal of you as the kingdom of Koda's Luna and freed from your marriage for your mental state. It was easy to convince the elders seeing as Killian's mother admitted that she would fo
