SERAPHINA POV
I walk with Leo willing because the thought of any of these people touching me, makes me sick. We exit the woods and head to one of the hotels in the nearby town. They have observably been here for a while, the room Leo threw me in was a mess, they never did have any respect for anything at all. I'm just glad they were ordered not to touch me, even though it would be a lot harder now with all the training I have been doing.Once he leaves, satisfied that I will not go anywhere, I lock the door not trusting any of them to not just come in even with the order in place. I head into the bathroom to have a shower, after I brush my teeth and try to get my hair to behave I climb into the horrible hotel bed, knowing that tomorrow will be the start of my life of hell.I didn't get much sleep, I wish I was at the castle laying in Dominic's arms, all warm and safe. In the morning there is a knock at the door, I was already up and dressed. I openedSEBASTIAN POVI felt it.. I'm sure Phoenix felt it too, having the blood bond with Seraphina means we know where she is but we can also feel if something happens to her. And the more emotionally attached the people involved are the more they feel. I know Phoenix feels some things from her but I got to know her and spent more time with her, I was with her from when she woke up from the attack and we became fast friends. I ment what I said when I told her that my loyalty is to her, I may be the third to the king but she is my queen.I felt it again, Seraphina has just been slapped twice. I just hope she can hold on long enough for us to get to her. And there he goes again, man my head hurts I can't imagine how much pain she is in. After one more hit it disappears, which means she is now unconscious."Dom! We need to do something! Its already started and she is unconscious already." I say as I walk into the meeting room.Dominic looks up at me as I enter the
SERAPHINA POVI hurt all over, I don't know what happened but when he returned he was in a fowl mood. I refused to kiss him again and it just set him off, I think he broke a couple more ribs. He also pulled out his favourite knife, the one with the silver edge which means the half a dozen cuts he put along my stomach and chest will probably scar. I couldn't do anything but scream, in the end I passed out.When I woke up I was cleaned and so was the bed, and he was sleeping with his arms wrapped tightly around me again. I couldn't move and it wasn't because my hands were handcuffed, they actually weren't. But you add his weight to all the injuries he has given me over the last 12 or so hours I am just too sore to try. He opens his eyes as I am laying there, "Good morning Darling""Don't call me that... I am not your darling!" I rasp out through a rough whisper because at some stage during his last punching session he actually nearly strangled me."Now! Now
DOMINIC POV"Dominic?" I hear Sebastian whisper and look over as he stands from the chair he has been sitting in for the last 30 minutes, the next thing I know is he is sinking to the floor."SEBASTIAN!" I yell and I am at his side within seconds, stopping him from hitting the floor as he passes out. I look up at Phoenix and see he has tears just glazing his eyes so I know this has to do with Seraphina and the blood bond, not Sebastian himself, as he would never show this sort of weakness in a room full of other clan leaders.I pick him up and move with Phoenix to a guest room that is close by. I put Sebastian on the bed and turn to Phoenix "Explain?" I say calmly"Its Seraphina sir! Seb is a lot closer to her emotionally as he is the one that has spent the most time with her. Therefore the blood bond he now shares with her is a lot stronger then the one she shares with me. I can only just feel the pain she is in but Seb he can feel everything. His connec
SEBASTIAN POVMy body feels like it has been through a blender, I ache all over and I wasn't the one it was coming from. If I feel like this I really don't want Seraphina to tell me exactly how much pain she is in. Luckily she is a werewolf and she heals really quickly, only a couple of her ribs are left but that was only because they were the most damaged.After Dominic walked out of the room with Seraphina, Phoenix and I got to our feet and went over to the Werewolf Alpha King. "Sir! We would like to thank you for helping us get our queen back." We bow as a show of respect. "So what happens now?""All of you have to stay very alert because Angus and Leo got away, they are now rogue wolves and they will want vengeance. Wolves that want or need vengeance are twice as bad as a normal rogue. I will send out a couple of teams to hunt them for a little while but just know he will come for her again and he will do it with no care as to the consequences.""Than
SERAPHINA POVIt has been a couple of weeks since I have been back, I have been training again which I now have to be careful with how hard someone hits me because Sebastian can feel all of it. Its just good that it doesn't come into affect when I'm with Dominic.These weeks with Dominic have been great, he is taking things slow and making a real effort to make up for his treatment of me before Angus tried to make me his Luna again. We have had a few dinner parties with the Werewolf King Noah and I even convinced them to make and sign a peace treaty making it one of the most important days in our history.The security for the castle and surrounding areas was increased and training for everyone was increased and intensified. With Angus and Leo still at large we had no choice but to be alert. I wont lie I am terrified, I know I will never be able to last another encounter with him. And I don't think Sebastian would be able to stand another round with him either. W
ANGUS POVMy darling is looking good again."Soon darling, soon."SERAPHINA POVI got ready for the date, I was even more nervous this time. I just hope it is as good as our first date. This time I was waiting in the sitting room for Dominic to come down, the meeting ran a little late so he is now running a late. I was sitting in one of the chairs near the window watching the woods, it was only there for a second but I was sure I saw 2 sets of wolf eyes staring at the castle. I shook of the feeling of being watch and turned just as Dominic walked into the room."My Lady! You look even more beautiful then I deserve." he bowed and kissed my hand."Thank you My King..." I have noticed that he always blushes when ever I call him that. "I have a gift for you, Happy Birthday My King!" I give him the box"My Lady Sera! You didn't have to get me anything, having you in my life is the best present I could ever want and have."I give him
DOMINIC POVI slowly came awake with my arms wrapped tightly around the most wonderful lady I have ever met. I look down at her and see that she is awake and looking at me, I kiss her softly and whisper "Good evening My Lady!""Good evening My King." she smiles"How are you feeling? I didn't hurt you too much did I?" I ask now looking into her eyesShe stretches as much as my tight hold allows her to and whispers "I am a little sore but in a good way and it was nothing that you didn't make better by increasing the pleasure you were giving me."I know I lost some of my control and that makes me feel a little guilty but hearing her say that made it a little easier to bare. I kiss her again and listen to the mix of moan and growl coming from her, this makes me smile and deepen the kiss even more. I turn us so that I am on top of her again, I slide myself inside her and move, slowly increasing her pleasure. I move my kisses to her neck and down to my m
ANGUS POV'Dam it!' I curse as I throw a few punches at the tree that's in front of me. I wanted her to myself, I wanted to be her first but that darn vampire beat me to it. I am going to have fun when I do finally get her, I don't know which way to do it though. I could kill him in front of her and then make her mine or do I make her mine in front of him and then kill him or make her mine in front of him for the rest of my life. Such a hard choice but then if I do the last choice then he can suffer and watch as I share her with Leo, now that would be a wonderful torture.Leo and I have been running in and out of their territory, looking for any weaknesses. We found one the other day and managed to get close enough to the castle that I was able to see her through one of the lower windows, she was dressed in that beautiful black and purple dress she picked up the day I got here. I watched and waited, I was hoping that there would be an opening for me to grab her but as
SCARLETT POVI stand on the balcony to Phoenix's room; I have been spending most of my nights here with Phoenix since just after my tenth birthday. Being with him helps with my nightmares. I have also known since I was little that Phoenix was my mate. My wolf and vampire have only ever agreed on one thing, and that is him. I have loved him for the longest time, but I won't tell anyone as they all just see me as a child. I also know he loves me too, but with the gentleman, he is he will honor the promise he made to my parents when I was a baby and that is he will not do anything with that love until I am of age. He walks up and puts his arms around me and whispers into my ear, "Butterfly, what are you doing out here? And what are you thinking about?""I had another nightmare, and I was just thinking about you being my mate while I was watching the blood moon. Are you okay? Do you need to drink some more?" I smile as I move my hair away from my neck to give h
DOMINIC POVCaleb fades to the back of my mind, allowing me full control again. I smile to myself as I feel my body come alive again, even after everything Caleb had just done, Seraphina runs her fingers mindlessly over my chest, I let out a low hiss as the soft sparks of pleasure from her fingers runs through me, she stops and looks up at me, "Dominic, I am sorry I couldn't stop him from..." a tear starts to fall down her cheek,I put my hand on her cheek and wipe away the tear as I say "My Lady Sera, I do not blame you. Teresa has been adamant about how much and how often you would fight and keep fighting no matter what he did. That you would even stop him from using her whenever you could, you would take twice as much just so she wouldn't have to.""It was my duty as a queen, whether I am her queen or not, but more importantly, she became my friend and I just couldn't let him hurt her any more than I could let him hurt Sebastian.""My lady,
DOMINIC/CALEBPOVAs soon as the mate bond broke and Seraphina became Lilith in wolf form, the power and responsibility of me being king returned as the one I passed it to was no longer able to fulfill that duty. I was okay to start with but I haven't been myself lately; I have been out hunting a lot and when I find a rogue; it doesn't matter if it is vampire or werewolf. There is never much left of them after Caleb is finished. I know the blood moon is coming. I feel the pull of it, the pull of power, the pull to power, to kill while drinking and taking any power I can get, but I have been fighting it as much as I can. I nearly failed last night. Caleb nearly killed a rogue werewolf that had wandered into our territory by drinking from him, but I managed to pull him back at the last moment with a beautiful memory of Seraphina.I heard a commotion yesterday afternoon but didn't really take any notice of it once I heard Phoenix yell "STAND
PHOENIX POVIt has been six months since Seraphina/Lilith disappeared, King Noah keeps us updated on her whereabouts through Patrick and Ethan but they haven't come back in this direction since they left, she seems to be heading for and hanging just outside Noah's kingdom.Josephine, Scarlett, and Teresa have been looking after the triplets, while Sebastian, Theodore, and I are keeping an eye on Dominic. When Seraphina or Lilith didn't come back after a few weeks Dominic went looking for her for a couple more but come back without her, Nathaniel tells us that the thin thread of the claim bond is still there so there is still a possibility of getting her back but I'm not sure if that is even possible now as even Dominic and Caleb have slowly become cruel again giving up on the love they once shared. I'm sure his heart is slowly freezing again and if that happens before Seraphina and Lilith come back, I'm afraid our king will be lost and Nathaniel, even with how
DOMINIC POVPhoenix runs out of the room and I hear him run down the stairs. I take this time to crawl out of bed and put some pants on. As I come back out of the closet, Phoenix comes into the room with Noah walking quickly behind him."Hey! Dom, what seems to be the problem?""I made a mistake, a really big mistake..."That is when he looks at me. "Dom! Your mate mark....""Yes, I know, Phoenix told me.... but that isn't the only problem. I think Seb needs your help in the bathroom."Noah walks over to the bathroom and opens the door. As soon as it is opened, out jumps Lilith in her wolf form. She tilts her head as she looks at Noah; she does a low growl and looks at the broken door then looks to the balcony; she tilts her head again and runs out onto the balcony, then jumped over the rail."NOOO!" Caleb and I yell as we run to the rail and watch as she lands on her paws, looks up at me, howl
LILITHPOV"No Sera, My Lady...""Sorry, Caleb but she is gone, you really broke her that night, the fighter in her that had fought for three weeks straight, fought to come back to the vampire she loves with all her heart, to the mate she had spent her life looking for but was not expecting or believing she would find, to the love that had kept her going through everything. Only to find it was no longer there, that she was alone again..""What about everyone else? Nix? Seb? Theo? Jose?""They had their own duties to do, and you rarely allowed Sera out of your sight. You wanted her nearby for your... What did you call her? What did you make her from that night on? Oh! That's right! Your pleasure slave, not your queen or your Lady, but a slave. You saw it as she had given herself to you, given her life to you and you could use her however and whenever you needed or wanted. When all she wanted was the love you origin
DOMINIC POVOnce I was back to my full strength, I traveled with Noah and Serenity into my kingdom. I left Noah and Serenity talking to the others while I went to find Seraphina. As I walked into our room, I heard what I guessed was one of the triplets, so I went into the adjoining room and checked on them. I don't even know their names or who is who. I pick up the girl that is whimpering and give her a cuddle. Once she has settled again, I place her back into her crib and quietly leave the room.I glance around our room, looking for Seraphina. When I feel a cool breeze come from the balcony doors. I slowly make my way over and that's when I see her. She is leaning against the rail watching the blood moon. I can feel the pull of the blood moon, but it is not as strong as it would normally be because Caleb is blocking me out. It allows me more control than I would normally have. I stand in the doorway, take a deep breath, ready for anything my lady deemed suitable, and
LILITHPOVI run back to the castle with Patrick and Ethan flanking me. When we made it to the edge, I found my dress and shifted. I exited the woods and waited for Patrick and Ethan to join me after shifting themselves. I laugh as they come stumbling out of the woods holding all but their basketball shorts, which, of course, they were wearing. As they reach me Patrick gasps"Your Highness, you are just too fast..."he gasps "Your eyes, your Highness, they are still gold??""Yes Patrick, Sera needs some time by herself, so you have to put up with me..."He smiles and bows, "Always a pleasure to be in your company Queen Lilith.""You guys can go now. I think some of the other staff are having a party celebrating the blood moon. You two should go join them. At least some of us should have some fun tonight."They bow at my dismissal and head back
SERAPHINA/LILITHPOVOnce Caleb disappeared, I spent that night in Sebastian and Teresa's room, and then I moved back into our room, settling the triplets into their room next door. The others are loving having babies around again. Scarlett is the most help. She is like a mini mother. She has made a strong bond with both Chrysta and Gabriela.I am missing him; I know he hurt me but there must be a reason behind it, a reason he did what he did, there is still so much about vampires that I do not know, I think I will go to the library and start reading up on what I should know and not just about being a mate to one but about being their queen as well. Something I actually should have done years ago. I am in Dominic's office at the moment going over a few last-minute requests from different staff concerning the blood moon tomorrow night, a few of the requests have been about whether we could hold another mixer ball like we did last time, I gu
