last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Antionette's POV

A knock at my door startled me from rolling dough for the fresh loaves I planned to prepare for the week. I had become quite the homemaker during this time.

"Phillip?" I asked realizing he was out of breath. "Are you alright? What are you doing here?" I asked. "Sorry, I wanted to surprise you, but I fear that I was being followed. I tried to lose whomever tailed me," he replied pulling me into his arms. "Are you fucking serious? What if they're looking for me? You led them straight to me!" I panicked. "Calm yourself, woman!" He said shaking me. "I promise I wouldn't have come here if I was surely certain I was not followed," he assured me. "I would never endanger you, my love," he added stroking my cheek. "Okay," I said leaning into his touch. "Take a seat. I'll make us some stew. Shit! I ran out of goat," I sighed. "I'll get some from an old friend. I'll be back," he offered. "I don't want to fight with you. I will be gone for some time to help Alpha Queen Octavia.

    Alpha Queen Octavia's POV "I cannot possibly fathom why you felt you could come in here and make fucking demands after everything you've done!" I snarled at Beatrice. "Lincoln! Your brother, Edmond’s corpse isn't even cold and you're allowing your bastard to rule in his place!" Beatrice said earning a harsh growl and my fingers wrapped around her throat. "YIELD!" I commanded making her wolf whimper into submission. I hated making wolves yield to my will. It was always best to have loyal followers because they WANT to follow me. “Let her? She earned this right!” my father snapped. She looked up at him horrified. How could she possibly believe she still held any leverage in this kingdom?"I-I..." she tried croaking out before I dropped her to her knees where she didn't dare meet my eye. "Beatrice, if I were you, I would tread lightly," I heard my father say over my shoulder just as Essex walked in. "She is my daughter!" Beatrice cried. "She is the bitch who ruined lives!" I growled.

    Essex's POV "Hey, I really am sorry you know," Tavi said from behind me. She sighed heavily when I refused to turn to face her. Instead, I tried to divert the conversation.“It is beautiful out here besides the blood-stained grass," I spoke. "The coming rains will wash it all away," she replied grabbing my hand. I looked into her eyes. It wasn’t often that my mate showed her vulnerability; always keeping a barrier up even with me.“Your father, what's he like?" She asked for the first time. "He's intimidating, but honorable," I replied. "Then why are you upset about our meeting of each other?" She asked. "It's not my father I fear that will make things bad for us all. It is my brother, Nimrod. He's the same reason I do not show my face in the shadows. He's somehow convinced a lot of vampire kind to consider me an abomination,” I explained.Tavi frowned but allowed me to continue.“Nimrod's intentions are never good. We thought mating him with royal vampire blood would water down hi

    Lawrence's POV "Come here, she-devil," I said to Karly. "What do you want?" She asked with an attitude. I stared at her like she grown a second head.“Sorry, my father...I mean, Lord Sheldon has been giving me shitty patrols all these months being here. l think he's punishing me and rewarding the dumbass, William. It was my idea to tail Phillip and drag him here and what do I get? NOTHING!" She explained. "Who did William say he was with when hit Phillip over the head?" I asked quizzically. "Why? Would you like her to sit on your face too?" She scoffed. "Erm, no. I was wondering if it were the same she-wolf from the village. She seems oddly familiar. What did he say her name was?" I asked annoyed. "Ana...Ally...Anna...Annais or some crap like that. Is she an old fling?" She asked with a hint of jealousy. Well, I’ll be damned. She was really jealous.“Karly, you are mine to berate, fuck, and drink with. I don't have eyes for another. It's been months and you still don't trust me," I

    Phillip's POV"Hurry it up! We must show the new Lady our progress!" A guard said, hitting me over the back with his whip.It was usually not permitted because I needed my strength to guide the others to make the finest weapons for an inevitable war, but lately the guards have gotten rather impatient with us."Keep your pants on!" I growled back, earning another slash.It wouldn't break me. I had a family to get back to; two in fact. I'd hoped they hadn't forgotten me after all this time. I've seem to have lost track of how long I've been here. I never see sunlight. It's always cold here. When I'm permitted outside these walls, it is only snow and cold winds."Don't destroy our workhorse, guard," a familiar voice said, making my skin crawl. "Olga?" I asked, recognizing her from the Kingdom of Klaus.Although I recognized her, her beauty shined through unlike it did back in the Kkingdom."Hello, Phillip. I prefer Lady Donyale so much better," she cooed. "I don't understand," I said dum

    Rose's POV "Look at his little chubby cheeks!" I cooed, pinching my sister Taysia's pup. "He's so chubby. I think I should not eat so much meat,” she replied, sounding self-conscious. "You are beautiful, sister. Hey, Duke Sayid doesn't suspect the pup not being his, does he?" I whispered. "Not at all. He's convinced little Sayid has his eyes," she giggled. "I still can't believe you gave your pup his name," I said, shaking my head. "He's my true mate, Rose. I love him with all my heart. He is good to me. I think it was meant to be this way. After what Lex did to me...I feared I would never conceive. He was such a monster, and I was blinded by the love I had for him. He haunts me still," she began to cry. "The son of a bitch is dead! Let it rest, sister," I urged. She continued to sob uncontrollably making me extremely impatient.“You don't understand. I see him every time I close my eyes. When I'm on top of Sayid, I see Lex's lustful glares boring into me. I cannot shake him. Someth

She was absolutely perfect for me.It's been nice being around my mate, Jamela. We were dispatched to our future kingdom these last few months. With Tavi and Essex ruling all the lands, things have already begun to prosper. It's been over a year now, and they are unmarried but equal. Too bad we were heading back for the possible bad news. "What are you thinking about, mate?" Jamela lazily asked. "How much has changed within only a year," I answered. "Come to bed, Alpha. Your Luna requires your immediate attention," she whispered in my ear. "What am I getting out of it?" I jokingly asked. "Undeniable satisfaction," she purred, straddling my lap. "Sounds like a fair deal," I groaned, feeling her grind on me. "You're quite an easy target," she giggled, inserting her hand inside my trousers strok

Jonah is such a good and robust pup. Jubilee did well by them all. "You must think I'm a horrible mother," she sighed. "No, you are one of the strongest she-wolves I know. I will take good care of Jonah. I swear it," I replied. "Don't make him love you more than me," she joked. "How could anyone love anything or anyone more than you?" I said unintentionally. "Take care of yourself, my lord," she replied, ignoring my comment. "Where will you go?" I asked. "How will I ever find you? How will I know you're in trouble?" I asked. "I'm going someplace safe at least for a little while. There is something I must do," she assured me. "If you should ever need anything, I will always be here for you," I reminded her. "For that, I am grateful," She bowed before disappearing. McKenna left my study to bid farewel

    Alpha Queen Octavia's POV Antionette's mother, Beatrice, made her argument to the elders about Antionette receiving asylum. Last I heard, Beatrice had found her daughter another suitor. I'm not sure if it is true, but it disgusts me either way. It's been a long time since she's revealed the truth about Lincoln's father and her true lineage with Lady Donyale. Now that my mother finally knows, it seems that things will get better. "Are you nervous?" Tilly sleepily asked. "Emmm, I just want to stay in bed," I said groggily. "Hurry yourself, my Queen! Violet and Vidalia will be here any minute now!" Quinn chuckled. She had way too much energy for my liking this early in the morning. "You all look dreadful," Violet said, bursting into my quarters. "Do you see this, Vi? They all slept over and didn't bother to invite us," Vidalia laughed. "KeepIt down, ladies," I said, putting the pillow back over my head. "Oh, get up! Today is your lucky day! You're marrying my brother. Get up, my Q

    Alpha Queen Octavia's POV "MATE!" I called out but he wasn't there. The place had been cleaned of the wetness of blood long ago. It wasn't until Phillip and Elder Adalwolf turned the corner clean shaven and no longer covered in dirt with that I realized some time had passed. "My Queen!" Phillip and Adalwolf said in unison. "W-Where is my mate?" I frowned. "Your Grace, he has returned to the palace some time ago when you did not return after the war of the North," Phillip explained just as Antionette paced in with their three pups. "H-How long have I been under?" I hesitantly asked. "Many, many, many moons, my Queen," Antionette spoke up. I noticed the crazy stares I received. Was my appearance off? They seemed stunned in a sense. Other than that, I couldn't believe Antionette, the hateful traitor even bowed to me now. In my stead of frustration, I hadn't realized that my belly had swollen a great deal from its usual flat state. That would explain the odd stares from those in fron

    Alpha Queen Octavia's POV Darkness. So much darkness. The screams of agony. Unrelenting suffering. The silence was almost deafening all of a sudden. The echoes of the dead could be heard surely to the land of the living, but more present than the skulls that lay in piles that surrounded me. I couldn't see Donyale in the shadows, but her cries of terror could now be heard. I was pulled to the underworld with Donyale with the help of Alpha Queen Lenora and D'Laurentis' blood mix. I felt their power radiate through me. My wolf, Gemini followed her commands without question. "What have you done, stupid girl?" Donyale said stumbling from the pit of darkness. "Saved my family," I replied subconsciously rubbing my belly. Still in a warped state. "YOU STUPID BITCH!" She called out. "Do you really think that mutt in your belly will survive down here? It's already dead!" Donyale shouted. I rushed her with the anger that filled me. Her words tortured me, but physically her power matched

    Oliver's POV The bodies were falling from the towers and from the horses that bounded prematurely. Blood spilled in the dirt and shadowed the fortress walls. As our shields went up, so did the spears and arrows that shot in our direction before being taken out by the warriors we left at the perimeter. "Stay at my side!" I ordered Jamela. "Go get her!" She demanded of me before I was attacked at the side. "GO!" Jamela demanded before throwing off the rogue that thought he bested me. I trudged through the crowd fighting off massive rogues with red eyes and a stench that reeked of the dead. Alexis was nowhere in sight. "This way!" Jamela said leading the way. "Her scent," I said finally catching on. "Mate!" My wolf whimpered at the smell of her blood. She's undoubtedly hurt. The scent took us in the direction of the kitchen. "THERE!" Jamela shouted through our mate link. Too many guards to count charged in our direction trying to prevent us from crashing what looked to be preparin

    Queen Octavia's POV I was restless to say the least. My dreams kept me up in my subconscious. "I need you to listen to me," the familiar voice of Alpha Queen Lenora spoke. "You're in the underworld. How is it that you communicate with me?" I quizzed. "We are bonded by true blood. Listen to me! You must drag Donyale to the underworld. It awaits her arrival. She's cheated death far too long. It must happen during the night of the red moon," Alpha Queen Lenora warned. "I need help. D'Laurentis is not being cooperative. There's got to be another way," I replied. "I'll meet you halfway. Listen to your wolf. Gemini will know what to do. Just do as I ask and the rest will come to you. DO NOT HESITATE," she warned just as I was being shaken awake from my nightmare. Every night I had a visit from Queen Lenora. She showed me things. It was almost as if it were snips from the past. Most times I could not hear what she would say. It was hunting. Lady Swan convinced me to want to listen. I some

    Lady Donyale's POV "My lady, the prisoners have escaped!" One of the imbecile guards alarmed me. "WHAT?" I asked trudging to their usual holding cells. "They were here, but it looks like they had been digging that hole for some time. Someone must have helped them knock down the rest! There's no way we wouldn't have caught it!" The imbecile explained. My hands were around his neck and his body a heap of ash by the time I finished strangling him. I needed a blood sacrifice that would please my worshiper. An elder would have elevated my power beyond this world as it always has. "WHERE IS THE ELDER AND MY BLACKSMITH?" I shouted in anger. "Auntie, surely you have traitors amongst us. I say we sacrifice them!" Beatrice offered. "Don't be an idiot! If I knew who the betrayers were they would be dead already? GET ME A SACRIFICE AND FIND THOSE IDIOTS!" I ordered her. My anger rose by the second when a solution was not brought before me. The rage I felt barreled through the walls of the for

    McKenna's POV The night rushed on to midnight before we knew it Nimrod appeared, but his father did not. "What is the meaning of this? Lincoln asked. "It appears that he felt the need to appear to the werewolf Alpha Queen. I guess she called upon him," Nimrod replied almost sounding unaware. "Octavia?" I asked. "That's the one," he said snapping his fingers. "How do we end this?" Antionette asked sounding just as desperate. "My father's blood would surely be needed. Other than that, I'm not sure," he shrugged. "LIAR!" Antionette barked. "Don't you think I would have ended her long ago if I could. I helped her cheat death, but that was a witches doing who's now dead. My only job was to steal my father's blood and believe me that wasn't easy. The witch, Gertrude did the rest," he said agitated before leaving us in our thoughts.. The wheels were rolling in Antionette's head. So, we let her be. Gertrude had been a very good friend of mine in this life. It made me wonder if her granddau

    Antionette's POV "Phoebe! You stop that at once!" I shouted at my daughter. It was no use. That little she-wolf was just like me when I was younger. My youngest, the twins were unruly, but in the cutest way. My life had been quiet. Although, many suitors have tried to court me. I never felt them to be genuine. They wanted a Queen or what I used to be. Either they were widowed, ugly, or fat. In my heart I just knew that Phillip would return to me. "My lady, we have company," my nanny, Ana said out of breath. "We never have company," I said grabbing my pitch fork from the wall. "You'll never believe who it is, my lady," she gulped. I took one step out of the doorway and wanted to swallow my tongue. "What are you both doing here?" I asked clinging tightly to my pitchfork. "I was granted asylum! You cannot just march to my doorstep trying to imprison me in front of my pups!" I added glaring at them. Lincoln and Mckenna looked at each other in confusion before speaking up. "We need

    Taysia's POV "WAKE UP!" I heard Lex's voice boom in my head. "What is it?" I asked pretending to have been asleep. Truth is, I've barely had a wink of sleep since my pup disappeared and I ate my sister. Served on a silver platter by kitchen omegas under the orders of Alex and Lady Donyale. If I had known…."Today is the day Lady Donyale will announce that I'll subsume the North with you as my Queen," he proudly said kissing my forehead. "It'll be just like old times," he cackled. "I would like my parents to be present at our wedding," I whispered. "We will invite the whole damned kingdom!" He boomed proud of his victory. "I'm sure you will," I murmured standing to walk toward the washroom. "Oh, don't be like that. I thought we had fun last night. Do I need to teach you how to obey me again?" He whispered in my ear. I shook my head in fright. His idea of teaching me a lesson always led to pain and blood that drizzled down my legs for days. Lex was a monster I never realized I knew.

"I don't remember much. Our camp was attacked. I went to fetch fresh water for our casualties before I was hit over the head with something HARD. I woke up here," I replied. "I'm so sorry, but I'm going to get you out of here," she replied. "H-How did you know I was down here?" I asked. "I'm a spy. I heard rumors about a prisoner. I went to the main dungeons, but they were all the same. It's when I began trailing Karly. She's not as clever as she thinks. Here, take this. It will help weaken the wolfsbane in your system faster. BuShit! Someone's coming," she panicked before I heard the clanking of the cells that kept me bound. I stuffed my mouth with the remnants of the moon flower Alexis had slipped me. I felt my strength being renewed little by little. My chains were heavy, but not as much as
