Aminda

When we landed on the helipad, a black mercedes was waiting for us. I was taking the surroundings with avid eyes. Kian looked at me amusingly. I probably looked like a kid on Disneyland. Everywhere was a blur of activity. Wolves shifting and running, Werewolves sparring. It was a small city within the forest. The rows of houses had the same appearance from outside. They were 2 stories with porches and well neat lawns. The mansion was something out of a fairy tail. Where mine looked more like Dracula's castle, this one looked more like a Disney castle. The manicured garden here had roses in every color and a big fountain in the middle. Aunt Marilla ordered our gardener to only plant black roses from Turkey. I turned to my left to find Kian staring at me.

"Do you like it?" He asked with a smile.

"I love it. My place is more gothic." I laughed.

"We're going to meet my parents now." My handsome man uttered. What, am I thinking, he could never be mine.

"Alpha King Korin and Queen Luna Annabel?" I asked, and he nodded. He seemed pleased that I did my research.

The car leaves us right at the entrance of the castle. River excuses himself and leaves elsewhere. Kian holds my hand to give me support and reassurance, but I'm not nervous. Years of living with Aunt Marilla and Alister would either break you down or make you stronger.

I walked with confidence by his side, holding hands. My Louboutin heels were clicking on the marbled hallways of the castle. The inside was even more impressive than outside. the walls had exquisit paintings, probably worth millions. Magnificent sculptures were potitioned on some corners. Aunt Marilla had put 2 gargoyles at our entrance.

We stopped by a door, the King's office, no doubt. Kian kissed me, making my heart flutter. He knocked before opening the door. The king was sitting behind his desk. He had a tailored suit that fit him like a glove. He looked very young and fit. His light brown hair was very much like kian's. A blond woman was standing next to him, Luna Annabel, no doubt. Her classic Channel suit and the pearls she was wearing made her look like the epitome of elegance and refinement.

Kian kissed the palm of my hand, making me lean slightly on him. Before we arrived, he asked me to let my mark show. He wanted his people and his parents to see it. I did when I shouldn't even be here. I'm just delaying the inevitable. I can never become Queen Luna. He looks at me adoringly before addressing them.

"Alpha King, Queen Luna. This is my mate, Aminda Bettencourt." Both of his parents winced at my name. His mother's face upturned just like the haughty witches of the Council.

"A witch, Kian." The Queen Luna says nervously and a little breathy. "Kian, you deserve someone like you. A ranked shewolf with whom you can share—."

"What makes me so unworthy to be Queen Luna?" I asked her, fully knowing that I wouldn't be accepting to be Luna, but feeling offended nonetheless. Kian grabbed me by both shoulders, pulling me against his chest.

"Mom, I didn't bring her for you to insult her. I came to introduce her to you. If you're not going to accept her, you will lose me as well." Annabel gasped. She looked hurt, and King Korin didn't like that.

"That is enough, Kian!" He boomed. I'm actually glad you brought her, so you can both see for yourselves why you can't be together." The King dropped an ancient book on the desk. Dust flew on the air. "Oh my." The Queen Luna complained. The king pointed to a page that dated from several centuries ago.

"Here! Do you think you're the first royal witch and royal werewolf to be paired? There have been many over the centuries. Every time they tried to make it work, it ended in tragedy, do tobq curse. The children of the Goddess Hecate were never meant to mix with the children of the Goddess Selene.

I glanced at the pages as he flipped through them with unhidden contempt.

"Tell us about that curse, King Korin." I asked softly. He sighed and motioned us to sit down. We all did and waited for him to begin. He rubbed his face and straightened up.

"Centuries ago, the witches and werewolves lived in peace. There was never a romantic interest between them because the werewolves always found their fated mates between the shewolves." He turned another page and took a second look at me and at Kian. His eyes widened.

"The curse started with these two." The woman on the old book had silver blond hair and violet eyes, just like mine. The man was so similar to Kian as well. King Korin continued.

"She was a princess among the witches. Very beautiful, they said. Hardly any men could resist her. The young witches envied her, and they decided to dare her. They told her she could never get a werewolf to fall for her charms. She had grown vain and accepted the challenge."

Kian squeezed my hand as his dad proceeded with the story.

"She put on her prettiest dress and decided to go to the forest on a full moon. During full moons, young werewolves would gather at nights looking for their fated mates. She managed to catch the attention of one of those young wolves, and the next thing you know, they were making love passionately at the edge of the river. A young shewolf who came late scented her fated mate for the first time and followed its scent. She found him entangled with the beautiful witch, and she rejected him then and there."

My heart sank, and I felt sorry for them.

"Of course, the young wolf who happened to be their prince blamed the witch and accused her of bewitching him. His mate didn't forgive him but was forced to take him back by the Wolf King. The witch was punished by her mother, the Queen Supreme for fornicating with a werewolf. She was forced to marry an old warlock as a consequence."

"Sounds so unfair that the prince just received a slap on the wrist." I huffed.

"Apparently, but no. His mate never forgave him. She withered away with pain. She was ashamed that her mate had laid with a witch and didn't wait for her. Eventually, the wolf prince and the witch princess seeked each other out secretly. Every day, the young shewolf writhed with pain whenever the prince was absent. They never knew the cause of her pain because unfaithfulness among werewolves was unheard of. One day, she decided to follow him. She found the prince and the witch in their passionately lovemaking. She cursed them then. She told them they would always find each other on every life, but they would never be happy. Instead of love, they'd create war among their people."

Kian got up abruptly.

"Surely you're not believing this nonsense dad! Even if it was true, this was centuries ago."

The king looked at me directly. "Why don't you ask your aunt why she never married? Her hair is now black for all the dark magic she has used, but it used to be silver blond. Just like yours."

"What happened to the Wolf King from 3 centuries ago?" I asked the king. 3 centuries ago, was when my aunt became queen. The king flipped more pages until he found the right one.

"3 centuries ago, Wolf King Killian never found his fated mate. Eventually, he passed the throne to his nephew, King Korey, which was my grandfather. My grandfather would tell us that rumors would tell he indeed found his mate, but it was a witch. That he was rejected brutally on the spot. That she told him she would never be with a mutt." Annabel gasped. That sounded like Aun Marilla quite alright.

"Is there any way this curse can be broken?" Kian asked hopefully.

"If there is, there is no record of it. You need to make peace with it."

My heart thuded. I already knew that we were not meant for each other, but it still hurts. Kian glanced at me, his eyes clouded with indescribable emotions.

"It's fine, Kian. It is what it is. We both have a duty to our people. I can't abandon mine. The people who would stay in my place can not be trusted with power."

Kian turned to me, cupping my face, caressing the mark on my neck with his thumb. My insides melt with his touch.

"Are you seriously not going to fight for us? Aminda, please. Don't give up on us without even trying."

His handsome face reflected his frustration. To be with him, I need to get rid of Alister first. Alister would hurt him, the first chance he gets. I need to become Queen Supreme to protect him.

"Have you been even listening, Kian? Son, sometimes there are things that aren't meant to be! I will never let you become King if you try to present this witch as your Luna!" King Korin's words were final. Just like my decision. I'm sorry, Kian. Maybe in our next life. I stepped away from him, and with my heart shattered into pieces, I banished.

    Aminda There's a void in my heart that keeps growing every time I'm away from Kian. Is this why my aunt embraced the darkness to fill that void somehow? If this it's going to be my life without Kian, I will turn crazy. As I walk through the gardens of my home, I think of Kian's picture-perfect one. I picked a couple of black roses and placed them in my arm. I will put these instead on Mother's vase. They actually smell good. Male voices came from the entertainment room, and I soon recognized Alister and his nephew Specter. Alister smirked as soon as he saw me. "There you are, Rabitt. When will you learn not to ditch your security?" "It's good to see you, Alister. Now that I'm 18 and don't need a guardian anymore, I think it is about time you divorce my mother and leave this house." Alister's eyes flashed in annoyance. "Tut tut, Bunny, is this the way to speak to your step, Daddy? What will my nephew Specter think?" My eyes darted to Specter's bulky form. His beady e

    Kian I was trying to be civil and not cause any more issues between witches and werewolves, but when I saw Aminda on the back of that asshat's bike, I saw red. I wanted to slam his stupid face on the floor and teach him he shouldn't even look at what's mine, let alone touch her. I grabbed Aminda by her arm as her friends and the three men left on their bikes. "You're holding me too tight, Kian!" Her cheeks were flushed, and her nose was scrunched. She looked adorable when she was mad. I wanted to bite those pouty lips. "Are you even listening to me? Let go, Kian!" I loosen my grip, but slightly. I already knew her tricks. "So you can do your disappearing act like always?" She squints her eyes at me and scoffs. "That's right Aminda, you won't be leaving this time until I'm done talking to you. If anything you can move us to a more private place." Many of her classmates were hanging around curiously. She blew some hair from her face, and without notice, we disappeared. I felt a pu

    Aminda I landed in another part of the forest, dropping on my knees instantly. I had to leave. I couldn't bear seeing him in pain. Regret clawed at my heart, but it was Father's life in the line. I will figure out how to get rid of Alister without harming my father, and then I will be able to take Kian back. I only hope it won't be too late by then. I just knew he wouldn't just leave home and wait for me to solve my problems alone. He was a knight in shining armor, a savior , a man of his word. Only deception could have driven him away. I hollered to the top of my lungs, and I cried like I had never given myself the luxury before. Not even when I thought Father had died. In my world, if they see you as weak, they'd step on you. I laid there staring at the already dark sky, contemplating my future and my options. The chili wind and my lack of clothing brought me back to reality. I disappeared from the forest and strutted inside my home naked as the day I was born, with my high heal

    Kian 4 Years Later I remember the night that started everything like it was yesterday. Aminda swearing herself to another man and for what? For power instead of love? I can't believe she'd do that to us. I sent her a message with her friends. I wanted us to elope. I would have abdicated the throne and ran away with her, but she didn't care. She chose to be Queen. Now she's showing her true colors. Werewolves have been prohibited to step foot in Verona city, with orders to attack and apprehend if they're found in witch's territory. Rumor has it the new Witch Supreme is more evil than the latter. "Oh, there you are, Kian." Fiorella sauntered inside my office like she owned the place. I was made to take a chosen Luna soon after Aminda's ascension. Fiorella is Luna, but just in name since I never marked her, and I never will. My mark still adorns my evil witch mate, and I have no plans to change that. Every time when she sees it, she will remember me. "Kian, I'm talking to you." F

    Kian It was weeks later that I finally managed to get all the right people on board. A letter was sent to Aminda requesting a meeting with her. Werewolves, vampires, and humans signed it. They were all restless after Aminda showed no interest in continuing the alliances. She is the most powerful among the leaders, and even though the vampires and the humans live farther away from the witches than us Werewolves, they were still wery of her. Rumor has it that she killed all of the elders of the council and appointed new ones to her likeness. River, my beta who found his mate three years ago will accompany me. He was still kissing his mate Piper, unable to detach himself from her. As I was annoyingly waiting for him by the car. She was heavily pregnant. Otherwise, I would've yelled to River to hurry up already. She had him wrapped around her little finger. Must as Aminda would've had me if we were together. Maybe soon, I still have hope. "Be careful, Ri, they say that witch is pur

    Kian Her eyes were hypnotic. I almost creamed my pants when I saw her in that tight as hell suit with a whip in her denty hands. So fucking sexy. "State your Case," she says. The only case I'll have once this meeting is over is a case of blue balls. "Why don't you talk first, King Zibor? You all look like cat got your tongue." She laughed. Goddess, even her laugh was sexy. Zibor twitched on his seat. He was probably boning over all that magical blood of her and her sexy body. Zibor stood up as she lay back in her chair. "My Queen. The vampire community was truly devastated when you decided to end our centuries old agreement. For centuries, vampires were granted free pass to Verona City without any issue. Your Aunt Marilla and I..." "My aunt and you, that is correct. Verona City has a new queen. It's only fair that new alliances should get drawn. What do the vampires have to offer us? I know for a fact how vampires get their kicks by drinking witch blood. The younger and the mo

    Aminda I knew Kian was going to be here tonight. That's why I decided to enter with an invisibility spell. The moment I saw him in the crowd, I lost all composure. He was as handsome as ever. His chiseled jaw with that stubble reminds me of how it felt every time he was face deep between my thighs. All those masculine features of his sent pools of warmth to my groin. His brilliant blue eyes were searching for me, and somehow, they would always pinpoint to my location. I just wanted to straddle him, run my hands through his hair, and kiss him with all my might. Then I remembered he had a Luna and the monster of jelousy tore through my body. When I asked him why he didn't bring her. He looked straight into my eyes and said his Luna was here. It almost made me lose my don't give a fuck façade. Right now, as he stopped me from leaving, his strong arm surrounded my waist, and with his other hand, he held my head in place.

I fought the need to open my eyes in case it was just a dream and I didn't want to wake up. Fuck even in my dreams she was too good! I tightened my grip on her head as I thrust my hips fucking her mouth with indomitable need. Her mouth worked wonders with my cock, deep throating me at times. Soon jets of cum spurt from my cum. I knew her mouth would've been overfilled had she been real. Without letting go of her hair, I opened my eyes as I panted for air. Piercing deep purple eyes looked straight into my soul. I tightened my grip on her hair even more, and I yanked her up, making her land on my chest. "Are you even real?" I asked as I stared at her like a lovestruck teenager in front of his crush. She was fucking stunning. She was completely naked, and her hair and body were dripping wet. I stared at her round perky breasts as she

    Aminda "Look what we have here." An eerie voice made me open my eyes. My surroundings were different. Everything looked eerie. The place was incredibly cold, and screams of people being tortured were piercing my ears. I heard a demonic laugh at my side, and at the same time, I could feel it everywhere. I was trying to use my powers, but down here, I had none. All of a sudden, I heard a boo and an entity appeared in front of me. A man demon, covered in tattoos up to his bold head and face. There was not a single place that was not covered by the greenish ink. "To what do I owe the pleasure?" He bit his bottom lip, then he licked his lips with his pierced tongue. It had two small hoops on each side. He tilted his head and laughed again. His laugh was evil. He was looking at me like I was a bone, and he was a starving dog. I knew who he was. I had been warned by Aunt Marilla. "What do you want in order to let me go, Orcus?" I said, trying to steady my voice. He looked at me in

    Kian 'Aminda!' I called her desperately through the mindlink. Two witches began to draw a pentagram, big enough for her size. They put black candles on each of the five points and lit them up. 'I will reveal myself if you don't tell me what's going on, Aminda!' She stood in the middle in nothing more than her tiny underwear and bra. 'Don't Kian. No matter what you see, don't reveal yourself. You don't want them to accuse me of treason, do you? Just watch. Everything is going to be alright.' She tried to sound calm, but her voice sounded a little shaky, and Alister's paled semblance wasn't reassuring. She stretched out her arms while the two witches started to draw symbols on her arms, legs, and stomach. Alister raked his fingers through his hair and paced around the room like a maniac. Aminda lay in the middle of the circle. The witches started chanting, and the symbols on Aminda's skin began to glow. Black shadows appeared and circled around her. The air chilled inside the

I was still shaken. All of this was unreal. Lance didn't deserve this. I want to find out who did it and what their motive was. But in order to do it, I need to use black magic. There are consequences, though. If I keep using it, there will be no way back, but I have to if I want to save him. "There's no way I'd leave you alone after what happened. Princess, you're still in shock. You need me. Please, say that you do." He kissed my forehead and held me tight. There was no denying it. I really needed him all the time. I nodded, with my head still buried on his chest. "We'll figure it out together, Aminda." I teleported us to my home. That night, I slept in his arms. It was only then that I could ever sleep with his arms around me. I needed him like I needed air. Kian was still in the sho

  • The Alpha King and The Witch Supreme    24. Who Did It?

    Kian Blinded by rage, that's the way I was when I saw my mate rubbing her body against that stupid Lance. Sometimes I forget she doesn't have a wolf. Werewolves' jealousy increases tenfold where our mates are concerned. My anger only diminished after our bodies became one. I hated myself for angry fucking her, but I couldn't control myself. I shouldn't even have attacked Lance. We weren't allowed in the city still. Aminda and I haven't even signed the alliance. Sirens started blaring all of a sudden. Someone must have reported me. "Kian, you need to leave. The council's guards are ruthless. I can definitely protect you, but you haven't signed as an ally yet, and we can't declare ourselves as mates either. This is all my fault. I'm so sorry!" She grabbed my face with both hands and gave me a quick kiss. I pulled out of her and put her down. "I am not going to run. I'm a king, and you're their queen. I'll talk to them. Is not like I killed him." She shook her head but didn't argu

Said Deandra as she filled our champagne flutes. Half spilling it as she shakes with laughter. I missed them, too. We had never separated since kindergarten. "I can't believe you ditched us for so long, and we forgave you so easily." Said Bessa with a pout right before she took a big gulp of her drink. "We literally thought you were being possessed by darkness." They both stared at me. "You morons should be greatful. I did it for your protection. I was new to the throne. I needed to learn who to trust. I wasn't going to present my weaknesses to everyone on a silver platter. You're my sisters." They both hugged me. "Okay

The sounds of her claps made me aware of her presence. So regal and perfect in every way. "But your son looves this witch whore, King Korin." She made the most adorable pout. Everyone else was frozen except for us. Her catwalk style of walking made her look so enticing. I stretched my arm waiting for her. "Witch Supreme." Father harrumphed. "This is a family matter if you can excuse us." He avoided looking at her. How can he be so rude to her? He knows he is my mate. He knows my wolf, and I would tear anyman for less than that. "Oh, but I'm the main topic of your family's little...discussion." She linked her arm to mine and pressed her soft curves to me. Mom hugged Fiorella protectively, glaring daggers at me. Aminda winked at them. I pressed my nose in her hair to breat

    Aminda Lord Gray, he was indeed hadsome. A man of many secrets and with particular hobbies. Even though he was devastated about losing Elana, he didn't show it. He looked so composed standing there, with his elegant three piece suit. After so many centuries of living in this world, he's probably used to losing loved ones. "Lord Gray. It was the right thing to do." He plummeted on his chair. He wasn't that unaffected after all. "She had just arrived from her country. I married her in Scotland and brought her here the very next day. I am a ruthless man to my enemies, but not to my wives. We were getting to know each other at first. I hadn't even touched her until recently." He sighed. "You know the vampire king would've raged war against you if you kept refusing him to take her. He's been waiting for his true mate for centuries. Only his mate can bear his children. Now, he would mate her and make her an immortal. An immortal just like us." His eyes met mine. He knows, I know.

    Kian Aminda walked past Gray without sparing him a glance. She had a smirk the whole time, her eyes locked with mine. I was smiling broadly at her, too. Her beauty was undescribable. If Gray's wives left everyone here awestruck, Aminda's beauty sucked the life out of everyone present here. She was the type of beauty that provoke, envy, jelousy, and possessiveness, depending on the beholder. "King kian." She said seductively. "I didn't want to pass this chance to meet my usurper." Fiorella's eyes went wide in disbelief. I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Aminda gave Fiorella a once over. "What a downgrade." She pouted. ""You...How dare you witch?!" Fiorella spat. She had grown accustomed to being treated like royalty, and here she was now been looked down upon. Aminda put a manicured hand on my chest. Her nails were painted black with silver little crescent moons and stars. She lowered her eyes seductively. She had a little diamond pasted on each eye lid. I couldn't wai

My hands itch with the need to touch her supple skin again. I checked myself in the mirror one last time while I put my diamon cufflinks on. This black tux was made exclusively for the party by a famous human designer. The only thing souring my mood is Fiorella. Dad insisted that we arrive together. He's going with mom on a different car, as well as River and his mate Piper. As I descended the stairs, I could see everyone waiting for me. Fiorella was standing next to Mother.
