Hello my readers Fiona here and I want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who’s reading this book. But a little note for you all to consider. I am a doctor and I work long hours. Writing is sort of therapeutic for me; a way of clearing my head of all the awful things I’ve seen everyday at work. I work at one of the busiest hospitals in my city and trust me, I pray nobody sees some of the things I see. I started this book on November the first and today is the eighteenth of December where I’m at. There are already 58 chapters and I’m about to update chapter 59. The book has only been on the app for 48 days. So you guys do the math. I do give two chapters per day sometimes. I can’t believe they’re people complaining about updates when I update everyday given my schedule. When I come home from work, I spend three to four hours writing a chapter. Then I go to sleep. When I wake, I spend another hour editing to the best of my ability before upload. Not to mention I have an household to take care of before heading to work to do my 14 sometimes 16 hours shifts. Some of us on this app can’t rely on writing to pay our bills. If I could write all day, I would, but for now 1 chapter per day is all I can do. Having people complain when I’m working so hard already makes me feel like I’m not doing a great job and it’s very discouraging. But again, thank you all for your support.
~Love, FionaMaster Cameron was sucking on his fingers like they were the private parts of his mate. "This chicken is some of the best I've ever eaten," Cameron mentioned as he fought the urge to lick the curried gravy clean off the plate. "It's a Caribbean speciality," Magda grinned as she watched the lycan devour his meal. King Kanyon however, was only sipping on the cheap red wine they were serving. His views kept scrutinizing each one of their faces. It was easy to read these people, they were shallower than a kiddies pool. His beast could sense the sexual tension between the alpha and his daughter-in-law. The two sat facing each other, and with each bite alpha Conroy took, his tongue flicked out to lick his fork in a suggestive manner while his gaze remained fixed on the she-wolf's lips. Kanyon was disgusted by this behaviour. Since the she-wolf was sitting two seats away from him, it wasn't difficult to smell her arousal. Kanyon would sense the Luna watching him, but every time he
"Jessica?" Magda's voice was heavy with rancour. The Luna couldn’t believe her ears. That servant-omega-slut? "You're saying you'll forgive my husband's debt if you could have her?" The Luna threw her head back in her seat and laughed. What kind of curse was this? That bitch was dead, yet her name and memory still haunt her. "What is it with men and this girl? Tell me because I don't get it," she continued, laughing her head off. "Magda, have you gone mad, woman?" Conroy snarled. "Be quiet and shut your mouth." "I should shut my mouth?" Magda squinted at her husband. "How dare you tell me to shut my mouth? This is my pack. I was born and raised here. My father ran this place like a true leader and so did his father and his father before him," Magda let out. "This is your fault, Conroy. Your spending and gambling habits are the reasons for all of this," she snapped, and Conroy slumped in his seat. "Don't look so surprised. You think I don't know about your gambling addiction?" Magd
'You sly motherfucking fox,' Cameron's voice boomed inside Kanyon's head. 'You're a damn genius, your majesty.' 'I know,' Kanyon answered through the link as he waited for the werewolves to finish catching their breaths. "I don't have all night," he hissed. "Are you taking this deal or not, Alpha Conroy?" "I—I don't know what to say," Conroy sighed. "Is either you make a deal with me, or Ozzy here will wreak havoc on your pack and kill a lot of people. You don't want a bloodbath, do you?" He questioned, seeing the panic look on the alpha's face. "OK. I guess if this means I can save my people, then we have ourselves a deal," Conroy exhaled. "Wait a minute, father. You're just gonna hand over our pack like that?" Cory snarled. "Cory, try to understand. This is not just the best way, but it is the only way to ensure our safety," Conroy explained. Cory slumped back in his seat, gritting his teeth while he folded his arms at his chest. He felt like his father borrowed money
King Kanyon spent a few minutes talking to Alpha Daniel. He wanted to know how Jessica was doing. The alpha told him she woke up for a few minutes, and that she asked for him. Kanyon informed him he'd be back in a couple of days. He was nearing the end of his call with Lucy when a knock interrupted him at the door. His lycan senses told him who it was. "You may enter," he called out. Cameron pushed the door open and stepped inside. He gently closed it behind him and walked up to his friend. Cam saw the worried look on the king's face as he sighed. "What's bothering you?" Cam asked him. "Everything," he sighed. "Being here among these people is only making my rage worse. It's taking everything in me to keep myself calm." "I know what you mean. I feel the same way," Cam confessed. "So how'd your talk with Lucy go?" "Everything is in motion. She assured me that she would email the documents so I can handle business in the morning.” "Good because I want to get going from thi
Cory's body was weak and in pain as the King withdrew his claws from the back of his neck. Kanyon had hit a nerve due to the boy's thrashing. No matter how hard Cory tried, he couldn't shake off the king's hold. Kanyon wiped his hand on his clothes and backed away from him. "Cameron, take him away now before I murder him," the king seethed. He saw everything that happened between him and Jessica. Even though she had told him everything, and it made him and his beast angry, seeing it with his own two eyes was making their wrath worse. They wanted to skin Cory alive. Kan was finding it difficult to cling to his humanity. "Now Cameron!" he barked. "Right away. Your majesty." Cory lost consciousness and was slick with sweat. Cam grabbed him by the arm, threw him over his shoulder then carted him off to his chambers. 'The Alpha and Luna will be pissed when they find out what we did to their son.' 'I don't care Sinbad. That slimeball had sex with Jessica, knowing he was goin
Chrissy was dashing through the forest in wolf form. She kicked up chunks of mud with each stride as her paws sank into the terrain. 'How could Cory do this to us?' her wolf, Tia, asked. 'We are the daughter of an alpha.''He's an asshole. That's why,' Chrissy groaned. 'I can't believe I ever loved him. All the empty promises and false hope he gave me. I was so naïve to believe him. I should have married Alpha Bruno. At least I'd be swimming in a sea of gold right now.'She followed her instincts and let her wolf take her down to the lake. The place that she and Cory would meet in the past and have sex. Her wolf began to slow down. The air was thick with the scent of passion. 'What's wrong, Tia? Do you pick up something?''Yes. I hear moaning, and I smell lust and pleasure all around me.'The wolf lay flat on its stomach and advanced slowly toward the nearby bushes. The wind was telling her the scent was coming from the lake. Tia was quiet as she crept behind the shrubs. Her yellow
"Can you believe what we saw last night?" Cameron chuckled. "As a matter of fact, I'm not surprised. After everything I've learnt about these people, nothing is too heinous for them to do," Kanyon explained. "Lets just take a look around and get going. I would rather not stay here another night." "Yes two nights here is enough." King Kanyon and Cameron added another night to their visit so they could tour the pack. The high-ranked quarters were lavishly decorated, and it pissed them off to learn that the omegas didn't dine with the rest of the pack. In fact, they would get the leftover foods that the high-ranked wolves didn't eat. “Ah, there you both are,” Alpha Conroy acknowledged. "I wish you could stay a few more days. My wife and I plan to host a celebration for our twentieth wedding anniversary in the coming days.” Cameron and Kanyon exchanged glances before speaking to the alpha. "I'm afraid we can't do that. We have to leave today," Kanyon answered. "We have lo
Cameron didn't feel like going to Osbourne's castle. He thought Kanyon was too lenient in offering forgiveness. A century ago, Osbourne themed up with his brother and tried to have the King overthrown. He wanted to be the king himself. But they were tried for treason where his brother was locked up for eternity, and he was exiled to this place. ‘Are you sure about this, your majesty?’ Cameron asked through the link as the guards guided them inside the castle. ‘Yes. We won't stay long. I'm going to get his signature on these documents, and then we'll make our way back to the Warmblood pack. Alpha Daniel says Jessica is doing well.’ ‘Great and have you talked to Anna?’ Cameron wanted to know. The king shrugged. ‘Come on, man, she's carrying your pup. I know you smelt the truth on her.’ ‘I tried to block that out, but I guess I'll have to face it head-on. I can't shake off the image of Jessica's reaction when Anna said she was having my child.’ ‘That girl has been through too
King Kanyon sat down at the head of the table while he conducted this meeting. “Cameron, is the Graceland kid still lurking around the town?” Kanyon inquired. “You mean Cory? Yes, he’s still being a creep. My informants told me he has been spending most of his time in the crafts shops,” Cam chuckled. “Why the hell was he still here?” Kanyon gritted his teeth. “I don’t know, but as long as he doesn’t come near the castle, and near Twinkle, I’m good,” Cam added. “Is there anything you’d like to add, DJ? Do you need any help with anything?” Kanyon asked DJ. “No. I cannot think of anything right now, but if I do, I’ll let you know,” he stated and the king could taste the sorrow on DJ as the young Alpha spoke, but he kept his composure. DJ's voice didn't crack once. “So Annabella is really gone?" he asked, leaning back in his seat with his palms resting flat on the table. "I'm sorry, man. I know how much she meant to you," Cameron rested a palm on DJ's shoulder. "Thank you, Master
“You will not have either of us!” Jessica exclaimed in a fit of rage as she confronted the being possessing her cousin. "Let me help you rephrase that,” it smirked. “I cannot have you — yet," Constance put emphasis on the word ‘yet’ which made Jessica angrier. Constance felt Ariel's soul fighting for its body back. "It looks like my time here is running out. Even though I know you've been warned already Queen Jessica, but I think I will warn you again. Mistress Paloma says Alpha Daniel's soul already belongs to her, so if you do this spell and bring him back to life, then there will be grave consequences.""What kind of consequences?" June asked. "The bad kind," Constance let out. She felt Ariel pushing her out now. "I will go now, but one of you has to break the seal." June walked up to her and used her foot to break the circle. Ariel began to throw up what looked and smelt like tar. Jessica sprinted to her side and held her hair away from her face. The tar transformed into black
The lamb baaed and bleated as the entity possessed it. The poor sheep's eyes rolled over in its head as the scent of death and despair stained the air all around. Little by little, its face twisted into something ghastly, an abomination between a human and a demon. "Who are you, and why have you come here?" June asked as she stepped up to the animal who was bucking and chewing at the bars of the cage. The iron bars sizzled and burned the creature's tongue. It hissed and scurried back into the centre. "Saltttt!" the demon spat. The tone of the voice told June it was a woman. The three mages swallowed hard. They had never witnessed anything like this before. Luna Ariel was in a corner with her heart beating like a war drum, rethinking this whole resurrection thing. Queen Jessica, however, could have sworn that the creature's voice sounded familiar. "State your name now and tell us why you have come here?" June barked once more."I came for," the lamb paused as it cackled then slow
As midnight drew near, the palace took on a dark and eerie atmosphere. Jessica and Ariel quietly made their way to the south side of the building where Lucy's chambers were located. With Lily's support, Jessica discovered how to turn off her mindlink so that Kanyon wouldn't pick up on anything she preferred to keep a secret from him. This decision wasn’t easy for her. She felt awful keeping this from her husband. Jessica squeezed her cousin's hand harder as they made their way down the path. "Don't be nervous," Jessica whispered. "I truly believe everything will be alright.""I wish I could be all mellow like you, but I can't. My mind's racing with all the ways this could play out, and I have no clue what to expect,” Ariel sighed. "I understand, but try and be positive,” Jessica kissed her palm. “Now chin up because we're here," Jessica stated as they settled on Lucy’s welcome mat. The queen tapped on the door, and Laura opened it for them. “Get it,” Laura ushered them inside qu
"Resurrection spell? Isn't that considered dark magic?" Ariel swallowed hard. It seemed like everything in the room was spinning. When she was younger, she was always taught that if you fooled around with dark magic, it could cause you to lose your soul. "The darkest of dark, Luna. But our queen here doesn't seem to understand how dangerous this is,” Lucy huffed. “So Ariel, I will need you to step up and be the wise one. Alpha Daniel was your husband, and even though we all miss him and believe he didn't deserve that fate, the choice lies with you. If you tell Jessica that you don't want this, then she cannot continue with this madness. Take your husband's body home and give him the proper burial he deserves. Don’t let her taint his vessel like this.” Lucy eyed Jessica sternly. "Lucy! Watch your tone," Jessica hissed. “You act like I’m going to use a knife and carve into Daniel’s body.”“You might as well do that,” Lucy rolled her eyes. "Ariel, don't listen to her,” Jessica sighed.
"Lucy, are you still mad at me?" Lily asked her sister as they stepped into the portal door. Lily tried grabbing her sister's hand, but Lucy flashed her off. Laura had already gathered the sages and candles needed for the spell and was sitting on the floor by Lucy's bed, waiting for her two sisters to return. Zap!!! The door appeared and Laura tasted the bitterness between her two sisters as they stepped out of the portal. "Did you guys get all that we will need?" Laura asked. "Yes, and we had to kill two trolls to get the toes we required," Lucy gagged as she scraped the goo off her hand and flashed it on the ground. "So how did you do? Did you get everything else?""Everything except the witch's blood.""Where are we going to get witch's blood from?" Lily sought. There weren’t any witches in the kingdom. Laura looked at Lucy."No! I cannot ask June to be a part of this," Lucy shook her head. "It's just a little blood," Laura added. "It's not like you're gonna ask her to help pe
“Forgive me for what I am about to say,”Lily blew out a breath as she stared at the woman in front of her who was asking her to perform a forbidden spell. “Are you out of your freaking mind, Your Majesty?” she yelped. She was shocked by what the queen was proposing. “That's some serious dark magic, Queen Jessica.”“I know, but maybe if you teach me how to do it like how you've been helping me with spirit summoning, then maybe you won't have to get involved,” Jessica pleaded her case. “You are smart enough to know only a mage or a witch can cast such a spell, so there's no way I'm letting you do that. And what if you died? The king would have my head and then maybe my sisters’ heads as well,” Lily scoffed. “You're not letting me do this?” Jessica snickered at the mage as she repeated her words. "If I command you to do it, then you will do as I say. Am I not your queen?"“Of course, but —,”"Then it's settled. You will gather the ingredients for this spell and I will stall Kanyon and
The mysterious foe spoke softly. "Give me the child, and I'll let you live.""No! You can't have my grandson," Daniel answered. "Very well then. I guess you won't live to see another day." King Kanyon and Ariel understood the impending danger, but as they hurried towards Daniel, a purple mist enveloped them, obscuring their vision and dulling their senses. Before the elders managed to secure her wrists, Priestess Constance opened her eyes. Her cackles now sounded like nails on a chalkboard. Her eerie, haunting voice sang out like a dying canary. The elders had to place their palms over their ears to stop their heads from exploding. Hearing her husband's sorrowful wails, Ariel screamed out in fury. The wicked man thrust his arm into Alpha Daniel's chest, tearing out his heart. The alpha dropped to his knees and, even with the huge hole in his chest, his fingers held firmly onto the baby in his arms. As her husband took his final breath, Ariel sensed a burning ache in her heart f
The sky got dark as grey clouds came out of nowhere, blocking the view of the sun. Just a small stream of golden sentinel illuminated the clearing, where the air crackled with tension. Kanyon experienced a surge of adrenaline as his heart pounded in his chest like a war drum. His eyes shot to his people, who were running and scrambling to get to safety. The King was still knelt by Anna's side as his eyes watched the two creatures circling the priestess, their muscles coiling beneath matted fur.Kanyon almost couldn't keep up with her fast moves. And her movements were lethal alright. She was ripping through his guards like they were paper. In a split second, she tore the two beasts' heads off. With blood dripping from her fingertips, she turned to face the king. "Let me go King Kanyon or I will kill my way out of here," she cackled. "You know only you and maybe a few members of the council have the strength to stop me. So if you will not fight me, then call off your men, or you ar
