Stuck between the Royal Wolves Chapter Forty Five
RAYA BANKSI felt the Alpha’s needled fingers hook painfully in my hair as he jerked my head closer to his face so that I noticed the way his skin lacked any pores, the marbled porcelain contorting with hate and displeasure.“Answer me, wench, I will not have a man who whores around in MY own Castle! Do you understand me?” Alpha Toph bellowed, the wind from his mouth brushing harshly over my face so that I had to squeeze my eyes shut, feeling tears drop from the squinted corners as I tried to reach the iron grip he had on my hair.“Y-Yes Your Majesty,” I cried, feeling the sizzle of hair tearing from my scalp as he shoved me roughly to the side, making me stumble and fall on my ass, my legs splaying embarrassingly in front of everyone who cared to swing their head to the side to watch.I tried to still the wobble in my lips as something bitter burned in my chest while I jerked my hand away from the floor behind me to wrench the gown that had ridden up downward, catching a few of the l

OLIVIA BURNSI gasped loudly, feeling the air that had been building in my chest pass through my lips as the world came into focus around me.“What the hell,” I groaned, whimpering and clutching my sides where a dull throbbing had started, my eyes widening when the memory of everything that had passed rushed back to me.I was alive, with all my extremities.I smelled the dark Prince before his deep voice filled the room, the scent of our wood and male musk. He smelled rich, powerful.“Your Highness, she’s awake!” A woman’s wispy voice came from somewhere beside me so that I craned my neck to catch the large frame of the Alpha leaning against the doorway, moving to his feet at the woman’s words and crossing the room to meet me in seconds.“Nikolai,” I gasped, making my voice fainter than I knew it could have been and holding my eyes like the frail vulnerable woman that Nikolai so loved to protect, my hand reaching out weakly to twine with his before he pushed my shoulders back into the

NIKOLAI“What the hell are you going to do Niko? Are you planning to let the woman stay here? Permanently?” Igor whisper-yelled, jogging beside me to keep up with my long strides as we stormed across the sunlit stretch of hallway, the smell of wet earth coming from the stone walls muting the thoughts that threatened to overwhelm me.I sighed heavily, resisting the urge to roll my eyes back into my head as exhaustion seeped into my pores, making the darkness I fought to press down in my head and stretch a little more.What was it going to take for a man to get some peace and quiet in his own damned castle?“I don't know Igor, can we just focus on finding that damned Shadowling?” I seethed, watching the blonde rogue’s eyebrows raise dramatically before his midnight-black eyes fitted away from me and he clapped his hands together, contrite.Thank the freaking saints.I didn't know what game the moon goddess was playing, throwing a Shadowling at me when I was fighting for my mate. A mate

RAYA BANKSMy legs are cramped as I squatted over the window, splaying my cotton-bound lady parts for all who cared to see.Alpha Toph had made it so that there was no way to leave the Castle without arousing suspicion. I ducked to avoid the wash of brilliant fluorescent light that spanned the windows above my head, flooding the dark room with its white glow so that the brown furniture appeared black, before the searchlight’s beam passed over, and I climbed up to the window’s balustrade again.“Freaking hell,” I cursed under my breath, squinting at the gloomy arch of the Castle gate that was lined with metal-played guards standing unmoving on each pillar, the silver of their armor catching the flash of thunder that broke suddenly as a deep rumble shook in the sky.I shimmied the window open silently, swinging one shaky leg out and gnashing my teeth when the gust of the chilly wind swept goosebumps up my legs. I whimpered, pressing my face into the cold stone shingles of the wall as t

ALPHA TOPH”Take her to the dungeon Hagrid, where the other maidens are,” I growled testily, watching with delight as the woman’s eyes widened with fear before she doubled her efforts, fighting against the bulky frame of the guards that had pinned her right little body between them.Bloody hell, I loved seeing a woman struggle more than anything else, they were always the most...exciting. I swallowed the thick drool that had pooled in my mouth, fisting the hardness in my trousers discreetly as the guards carted her away and I followed behind.“You won't get away with this Alpha Toph! Nikolai would come to get me! I know he will!” Raya’s frantic screams sounded in the foyer as I turned to wave dismissively at some of the brown-nosed council members that had stopped to stare at the debacle. “I highly doubt that mi amor, seeing as my brother is set to be wed to the lovely Olivia Burns, retired whore as she is...a suitable bride for the bastard.” I guffawed, gloating in the silence that

RAYA BANKSI wrapped my arms around myself, a shudder passing through me as the chill from the cold floor seemed to seep through my thighs to squeeze at my heart.I felt heat roll up my neck to warm my cheeks as I tried to scrub out Alpha Toph’s pre-cum from my face, the slimy goo sticking stubbornly to my dress as I fought the wave of nausea that shot up my throat when the tangy smell hit me.I felt disgusted, my lips curling bitterly so that I wanted to scrub every inch of my face on the stone until the skin peeled. The man darkening the cell gate was still looking at me, I could feel his pale eyes boring through my clothes to chaff against my skin like rough hands.“What do you want? Haven't you guys done enough already?” I screamed suddenly, not trusting myself to look at his scary eyes and cutting my eyes instead at his linebacker knees that were almost bigger than my head.My heart twisted violently in the silence that followed so that I risked a glance at the thunderous express

ALPHA TOPHThe throne room was quiet when I ignored the straight-faced guards outside to throw open the huge double doors and watched as the click of the overhead lights turning on until the whole stretch of glass ceiling was illuminated.“Playing hide and seek are we?” I tutted, pleased to hear my voice carrying loudly in the table-strewn space.Nothing. Silence.I felt a scowl deepen the grooves in my forehead as I sneered, my heart suddenly hammering against, my ribs as I stormed into the space, letting my eyes roam over the jutting pieces of furniture and round tables on the sides before I looked up to my skull throne, the bones jutting from the silver and catching the light of the moon so that it almost looked like the padded metal seat was on fire.“Come on now, Gobar, aren't you too old for games like this?” I raved, the tingle in the back of my neck buzzing harder as I began to wrench the white sheets violently from the seats, peeking under the tables and chairs like a madman

NIKOLAIThe stone of the castle battlement seemed to give under my feet as I sat hunched, unmoving in the night, allowing the bright yellow beams of my wolf’s eyes to roam over the quiet silhouette of trees.“Where the hell are you Igor?” I growled under my breath, feeling my heart fluttering wildly in my chest as the case of a distant owl grated in my ears.The man should have been back from his scout to the Burning City by now. What the hell was taking so long?I could feel the whirl of the castle sleeping behind me, the loud snores of the Keep guards rising like train whistles in the night so that I ground my teeth uselessly against each other.Had he been caught? The thought left a bitter taste in my mouth so I inhaled sharply, knowing Alpha Toph would no doubt call for a public beheading of the intruder.“Shit,” I grunted, leaping back down into the castle and feeling more irritated that I couldn't leave. I was trapped here, with an army of residents that saw me as a god, and a w

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

158Raya Banks“Nikolai! 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. My fault! It was all my fault. I had let my best man turn into a trait
