Stuck between the Royal Wolves Chapter 136
NIKOLAIThe wind whipped my hair violently about my face as the horse galloped down the dirt road to the villages.“Seven hells,” I growled, feeling my fangs snap together in anger as my eyes trailed over the haunting landscape of the stone-walled village.“Saints! It's a bloody massacre!” Gallagher hummed from his horse beside me and I swallowed thickly, the sharp fume of smoke clogging my throat and latching on to my nose hairs like little rabid insects.The dark grey fumes rose from the settlements like some post-apocalyptic volcano and my heart sputtered in my chest as I pumped my fist high in the air, ordering the soldiers to dock the horses as we neared the village gates.“Gallagher! Round up the survivors, the sentries take them back to my castle! The rest of the infantry! Follow me!” I thundered, shifting into my wolf and pounding through the broken gates hanging off their hinges, immediately getting slapped in the face by the carnage.I slowed, trotting on my hind legs as I l

Raya BanksMy heart sped up the second I caught sight of Nikolai’s midnight-black horse speeding through the trees before shooting past the gates of the castle as the battlement guards up on the walls cheered and hooked appreciatively.“He's here! Quick! To the chambers! I'll run down and see where that scallywag redhead is!” Ymir cheered excitedly from her perch beside me, slamming her binoculars down on the window sill with enough force that I feared it would break.I leaped down from the window, glancing about the room in a panic and patting down my dark hair in the mirror, trying to ignore the red that was currently stinging my cheeks.“This is going to work,” I whispered to myself, just before the old maid poked her curly white hair through the door, hooking her thumbs up to signal me.I hurried down the stairs with my gown in my hands, feeling my breath hitch in my throat when I broke out into the dark, open foyer, mumbling a greeting back at the guards that bowed at me.Why did

RAYA BANKSI turned my body this way and that in the mirror, unable to help the smile that lifted my lips when I saw my full, reddened cheeks in the mirror.I was wearing a blood-red off-shoulder gown that matched the hazel of my eyes and hugged my curves tightly, spreading into a low poof at my waist. Ymir had put white lilies in my hair and I could still smell the sweet, airy nectar in my nose.“You look like an angel Raya,” The old woman whispered as tears filled her eyes and I smiled coyly at her, pushing my delicately curled hair back with my hands so she could see me smiling at her.Saints! What would I have done without the woman? She was everything I had ever asked for in a mother and more, and I still couldn't get over how well everything had played out.“So? How did it go?” Ymir whispered, tightening the white sash on her gold, royal brocade that was studded with small gold beads before settling back in my bed to stare up expectantly at me, wiping a small tear from her eyes.

Alpha Toph“Get them in! All of them! Move move!” Gobar roared, the long black snake of the rubber whip he held in one hand whipped through the air to lick at the naked backs of the villagers that were chained to the carriages.I felt excitement spread in my body as adrenaline coursed through my veins, making the hairs on my back and neck rise as blood lust crowded around my eyes.“Please! Please help-” A familiar scratchy voice boomed in my ear after I heard the sound of chains as hands clutched around my ankle.“Y-Your Majesty!” Hagrid’s gaunt face stared back at mine in shock and I felt a surge of annoyance ride up my back before roughly shaking off his hold.“WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOU? YOUR MAJESTY?” My old chief assassin panted, scrambling away from me like I was covered in shit. I looked down at the leather monkey suit I had on and the neat dress pants with nice leather shoes.I brushed a hand through my hair before grinning back at the naked man sitting with the rest of the vi

Olivia BurnsThere was something wrong with me. With the baby. I could feel it.“Congratulations again on your betrothal Miss Burns, I must say having the royal heir from the Main city castle walls has been long awaited.” One of the council wolves boomed, his small, sharp pointy teeth flashing as he grinned at me and I forced a smile back onto my face.I felt Nikolai stiffen beside me and swallowed through the thick cobweb that had stretched tight around my windpipe.I would not fool myself by thinking I had the King’s love when it was obvious to everyone that I didn't.Someone had poisoned my afternoon tea and he hadn't even cared! “Thank you,” I breathed simply, making to snatch up the wine glass before catching myself just in time and reaching for the orange juice box instead.Careless, that was what I had been since the king’s public engagement with me. I felt a shudder run down my spine as the wolves discussed the three cities before Nikolai spoke and the rest of the table fell

NIKOLAI“Raya! Wait, please, listen to me!” I growled, jogging up behind her hourglass figure before placing a hand on her shoulder to stop her.“Don’t you dare! Don't fucking touch me.” Raya shrieked and my gut clenched painfully when I saw the tears streaming down her face as she sobbed.“Please Nikolai, just don't, after what I saw I don't think there's anything you can tell me right now.” She hedged, her frail neck tight with muscles as her small chest rose and fell with rapid breaths.I scanned the environment, feeling my heart skip a beat when I noted the guards and groundskeepers that were watching us curiously, snapping their eyes away when our gazes locked.“Not here,” I hissed, hooking my hand through hers and dragging her along, ignoring her feeble tries to break out of my grip.“Ugh! Let me go!”“Enough Raya!” I thundered, watching her beautiful tan face widen in surprise before her eyes hardened and I added a hasty “please,”.“Just listen to me okay? It wasn’t what it lo

Alpha TophHot...I was hot all over, hot like the cursed day I dropped out of my mother’s heaving behind.I ground my teeth together and kept my hands mashed firmly in front of me, already sweating in the nasty guard uniform the blonde man had found for me.“How much, bloody longer is this going to take Igor?” I hissed at the man who had a blanched look on his face as we stood under the overhang of Raya’s chambers, waiting for his knows what!“Listen to me Tophas, you need to calm the fuck down okay? It...it took a lot for me to bring you here today!” He snapped, his pea-black eyes flashing in the silvery light of the moon as his harsh whisper does in the space around us.How easy it would have been for me to swing my hands and snap off the bastard’s head like a damned pinata, but no...I had to stay focused. I had to get the bloody stone from Raya Banks, one way or the other, and the fool was crucial to my plan.“No one knows you're here, my damned neck is on Nikolai’s bloody guilloti

Alpha Tophas“Please! Please, let go of me!” She whimpered, and I watched her face redeem with panic as I swung her slender little body over my broad shoulders and made my way down the sturdy vines.“Tophas! Shit!” Igor hissed frantically as the woman’s loud sobs echoed in the foyer and I whirled around to face him just as her tempo increased, probably thinking that the blonde man was her ally and that he would help her.“Bloody hell! What the fuck do you think you're doing Tophas!” He chewed, flailing his hands beside himself in frustration as his eyes narrowed dangerously as I smiled again.“Please! Is that you Igor? Help me! Somebody help me! I'm being kidnapped!” Raya screamed again and I watched the man’s heart sputter and die in his chest as I swung the maiden happily from side to side, making sure my shoulder bones dug painfully into the meat between her ribs.“Shut her up this instant! ARE YOU TRYING TO GET US KILLED?” He howled and I let the woman go promptly, watching with m

Raya BanksI hadn't stopped glancing anxiously through the wide carriage windows after we left until my breath caught in my throat when I saw the looming buildings of the castle up ahead and leaned back in my seat, suddenly feeling my pulse jump.“It's okay Raya, I'm here...I won't let anyone hurt you.” Nikolai growled and I felt something warm unravel inside me at the possessive tone of his voice.I nodded, searching his stormy gray eyes once more before looking out the window again at the wet plains of the fields off to the sides.And Olivia? I wanted to ask, but something stopped me and I shook the thought out of my head, resting on his shoulder instead as the giant gate of the castle creaked open and I marveled at the cheers that boomed and erupted.“Holy shit,” I whispered and my cheeks warmed to hear Nikolai laugh beside me. Gosh, I never wanted him to stop laughing! There were rows and rows of ruddy-faced wolves holding large bouquets that they threw like confetti at the carri

NikolaiThe voices, by Jove! The rush of shadows and voices crowded into my head as I wove the moonstone around my neck must have made me mad!I roared, feeling my rage amplify and baring my teeth with bloodlust as I turned my body to see Alpha Toph charging toward me like a bat straight from hell.“You bloody prick! I'm going to annihilate you once and for all!” He bellowed, his lumpy muscled frame flying into the air before I surged forward to meet him halfway, almost stumbling when Raya’s soft whisper carried to my ears.I love you, I love you, I love you. I inhaled sharply, throwing everything I had into the fight as our bodies slammed meatily together before we landed heavily on the floor and I pushed against the bracket of his arms. His disfigured eyes stared at me from behind the barricade with such hate and venom that I threw away all the guilt I had swirling inside me.“Not if I kill you first.” I sneered, jamming my knee into his sides and watching him crumple in on himself

Watch out!” I shrieked loudly, feeling my gut wrench with fear as I saw the king get knocked down by Alpha Toph’s hulking frame.“You let a woman be your weakness again Nikolai, it's almost as if you never LEARN! Wasn't Olivia’s betrayal all those years ago enough for you?” Alpha Toph gurgled in a voice that sounded like rushing water and I felt chills wash over me as I tried to struggle to my feet before one of the shadowlings slammed their heavy foot flat on my back, knocking the breath out of me.“No!” I cried out, winded, and stretched a hand to the huge gray wolf that was being mauled ferociously by Alpha Toph’s half-human, half-beast frame. A trap! The beast had set a trap for the king and now he was cut in between. I knew almost immediately what he had planned to do but there was almost no way to warn Alpha Nikolai as he crossed the field to rescue me.Had I been his weakness? How did he find me? It couldn't have been that long since I was kidnapped an

Olivia BurnsIt was the silence that haunted me the most now. The empty hours from dawn to dusk and everything in between, just me and the shadows, and the shadows and me.“You rest up now Miss Burns, His Highness will be back to the Stone Castle in no time.” Meredith’s calming voice rang, making me snap my eyes to her pale oval face that had lifted into an encouraging smile.“Enough, I'm positive ill turn into one of the meadow fishes if you soak my stubs any longer.” I hissed impatiently, feeling my heart squeeze when the woman only smiled, snatching up a dry, white towel from the rack before wrapping my tender feet in it and toweling me off.I sneered at the unhealthy size of the swollen lumps as she massaged them into a reasonable size, and I stirred uneasily in the low plush stool that had been placed in the sunlit room.The King had ordered renovations for me, giant blue ceramic pots with fake gold flowers at the corners of the room that hid the shadowlings from my sight.

NIKOLAIShe was RIGHT THERE, a few feet from me before he snatched her right out of the air. So close, and yet, so far away.“It doesn't have to be this way Tophas, my mate has no business in our rivalry, let her go.” I deadpanned, hearing the din of my voice as it caught in the wind whipping about us before my brother’s uneven face jerked into an excited smile.I could hear the thud of my heart beating and was aware how fast my breaths rushed out from my chest and yet, I could do nothing but stand and wait. No sudden movements.“But you lie, brother, Raya Banks is my mate too don't you reckon?” Tophas growled, slamming one thick paw that looked like the fingers had been snapped all the way back against Raya’s full cleavage.“Please!” Raya’s desperate wheezes twisted at my heart as I held out a hand, stopping Gallagher’s copper-colored wolf from morphing out and tearing forward. I could sense his agitation, because it was double in my gut, watching the woman I loved so much desperatel

Raya BanksI couldn't stop the shudders from running through my body before the sound of wolves laughing heartily in the distance reached my ears.“Oh God, oh God, help me,” I panted, squeezing my eyes shut and clamping my lips firmly to keep from whimpering when what felt like a tongue licked at the underside of my ass from the stone.The damned thing was alive! Like the stack of bodies in the corner of the room! Wolf zombies, immobile now, no doubt until the dark shadow king Gobar wanted to command them!“A feast! We shall have a feast!” Alpha Toph’s voice boomed in the distance and my body automatically stiffened, still as a rock.It had been some time since he left and the hearty yellow beam I could see beyond the cave opening flaps if I angled my head right had now turned a smokey gray. Dusk. I had to get out of here fast, I couldn't hope on the King any longer, he may as well have moved on with his betrothed and heir and here I was slaving away, holding out hope and waiting for

Alpha TophMy tongue pressed against the uneven ridges of my teeth as I fiddled with the lock of the shadow king’s secret compartment.I had caught a glimpse of the mammoth beast leaving the small shed, the spot on his neck where the blood moonstone hung bare. I knew then that Gobar had to have been hiding it here. He never wore it to hunt.“Come on!” I gritted through clenched teeth, feeling my eyeballs sting as the sweat rolled down from the cliff of my forehead.Everything had begun to feel weird, it was hard enough to feed without tasting the worms from the inside of my mouth in the blood.If I could just get my hands on the dark moonstone I could stop the transformation and have SOME chance of killing the shadow king.Yes! I had to kill him, there was no way in seven hells I would have gone through all the pains to settle for being his eternal stooge!The numbers I tried to spin on the lock didn't make any sense and it was beginning to get dark. I glanced around quickly, catchin

Meredith The Maid“MEREDITH!” My name, I answer it with pride when my mistress calls, but she does not call today. “MEREDIFFTH!” My name, whenever the mistress was in one of her moods and couldn't stand to get the words out nice and proper, her shrill tone seemed to shake me to my very core.She was in one of her moods again as I led her away from the King’s horses, holding the blubbering countess by the hand and helping her climb the stairs until we were behind the safe walls of the familiar quarters.“What time is it Meredith? I haven't had my afternoon tea and all that screaming has made me rather, famished!” Miss Olivia exclaimed and I caught my tongue between my teeth before I could tell her she had taken her lunch already. Thrice.“Of course, I'll send for it M’lady,” I cooed softly, lowering her onto the plush cushion of the high bed and propping her feet too before smothering her with the rich red duvets that had been layered on the foam.“My Merd, what would I do without y

NIKOLAITime seemed to stand still as I swung the silver sword in a neat arc, striking the stretched meat of my best friend’s neck and feeling the sword spasm in my death grip before cutting cleanly through the bone and clanging up to my shoulders against the hard rock of the dias.My heart pounded wildly in my chest as the brightly colored room blurred in my vision for a moment before I caught the lapse and blinked everything back into focus.The silence was so loud that my ears rang from the nothingness, not a breath, not a word, nothing but quiet. I watched Igor’s blood-spattered head roll quietly down each stone staircase until it toppled in a neat circle and stopped on the floor.I was breathing fast, and heavily, with my fingers shaking on the hilt of the executioner sword I still held tightly in my hand and yet I couldn't manage to shake it off.It was like a part of me had died the moment I held the blade.
