THANATOS
I am done, if this fucking pup was going to hurt my mate, then I will show him who the fuck the true Alpha was.
The moment Morgana put those soft lips against Sage's, my anger snapped. It disgusted me when Kian kissed her, but it disgusted me even more to see my mate kiss this bitch!
"Kian... Thanatos…" Sage whimpered, staring at me.
"You heard what I said! She. Is. Mine! And if Kian cannot be fucking man enough to admit it, then I will!" I hissed, I grabbed her by her neck, wanting to rip her to pieces.
‘Thanatos don’t! You can’t tell her about Morgana!’
‘WHY?! ASHAMED OF HER?!’
‘No! I don’t want to risk her in any way! If anyone finds out-’
‘Fuck off, I'm fucking in charge here!’ I hissed back, slamming my walls up.
I hope he enjoyed the fucking treatment. He was a fucking dick. If he couldn’t accept mate, then he didn’t deserve mate! She was mine!
"I-I’m sorry, Thanatos…" Sage whispered, look

KIAN "Anything but that." I said quietly. "Let me go." She hissed. I closed my eyes. "Anything that doesn’t include you leaving or staying away from me." I said, my eyes flashing as I looked at her. I didn’t miss the sharp, calculating look in her eyes. She was thinking it over… "I’ll tell you… tonight. But promise me you will give me what I ask for." She said coldly. I hesitated. Only a fool would promise something fucking blindly. ‘Agree, you fucking idiot.’ I didn’t trust her… but I had fucking hurt her enough… "You have my word." I replied coldly, clenching my jaw. She turned her back on me, and my gaze dipped to her ass. Frowning, I looked away, I had hurt her when I didn’t mean to. Whatever she asked for, I’d give it to her as long as it meant she wouldn’t leave me… "Stay here for today. You need to rest." I said quietly. Not waiting for a reply, I left the r
MORGANA The moment he left, I began to ponder what to ask for... What would be beneficial for me? I wanted more than just my freedom, I wanted revenge for my father’s death… I needed a lot more… I was pacing the bedroom floor when a knock made me look up. "Enter." The door opened and Delta Oliver stood there with a glass of blood, and from what I could smell, it was Kian’s... My heart skipped a beat at that. "For you, Lady Morgana." He said politely. I raised an eyebrow. Lady? Since when did he address me so kindly? "Thank you." I said, taking the glass. "Please close the door after yourself." I wasn’t in the mood to entertain anyone. He left me alone, and I sat down on the bed, staring out the window. What do I ask for? Him to cut Sage from his life? Oh, as much as that was tempting, I needed to choose something beneficial. I wanted nothing more to do with him or his beast. I sighed, sip
MORGANA "The King said to get changed, tonight you will dine with him." Those were the words the Omega girl spoke before she asked if I needed help getting ready. I had declined her help and had decided to get ready by myself. I hadn’t been able to go down to the courtyard for more blood, but it was fine, I needed to be careful, and so I spent the day searching this part of the castle. Although most of the doors were locked, I still had a look around. I hadn’t managed to find the keys to the journals much to my disappointment, but I still had this room to search more thoroughly. Wherever that annoying Alpha had hidden them, I’d find them. I knew what I wanted from him, so I decided to use my allure and looks tonight to keep him distracted and hope he’d agree to what I was asking. I knew I had a hold over him with the mate bond, and something told me that if I wanted, I would be able to bring Thanatos forth. Unlike his human counterpart, he was
MORGANA I glared at him, knocking his hand away, hating the tingles that he left on my lips. "Don’t touch me." I hissed, slamming my fork on the table as I pushed my chair out and stood up crossing my arms. "Morgana." His deep voice was low, I did my best to ignore the way it made me feel. I turned my back on him, right now I didn’t want to see the arrogant jerk. I felt the heat from his body behind me and I quickly turned around, raising a finger in warning. "Don’t touch me." I warned. "Morgana, can we talk? Man to woman, without our race, rank or anything else coming in between?" He asked quietly. "The Alpha King wants to talk?" I scoffed. "Please." I narrowed my eyes at him. Now what game was he playing? "Talk, I'm listening." I said, moving away from him and perching on the windowsill, crossing my legs. Resisting a roll of my eyes when his eyes trailed over my legs, his eyes flashing gold.
KIAN I couldn’t fucking lose her. The moment she was ready to walk away, I couldn’t stop myself, I needed her and so I promised her something which I knew was going to throw the entire fucking summit into chaos. But… She was worth it. We had a fucking messed up start, but I couldn’t fucking continue. Each day my resolve was breaking and I was pushing her away. If she wanted to be my one and only, officially, then that was fine… I didn’t get women; it wasn’t like I was going to cheat on her. I would deal with the Alpha’s and the backlash this was going to cause… Yes, the timing was fucking off, but if this could solidify the treaty between her kingdom and mine, it may ease the council's wrath. ‘She is strong.’ Thanatos growled encouragingly. ‘I know, she’s already fucking broken me down.’ ‘I have a complaint.’ Thanatos grumbled as I stripped out of my clothes, shifting into wolf form. ‘You always fucking do.’ ‘Mate, looked so se
KIAN Her words rang in my head, I turned to her sharply. "There’s no proof you are." I said coldly. "I am, I haven’t had my periods and I have been feeling really nauseous!" She exclaimed, coming over to me. "Just give it a few weeks, you will be able to hear the heartbeat!" My heart was thumping fucking hard. ‘No… I don’t care… We cannot go against our fucking promise to mate!’ Thanatos growled. ‘I know. I fucking know…’ But that was my pup… I stepped away from her, frowning as the news swirled around me like a fucking storm. I couldn’t hurt her, I couldn’t do this. Not to Morgana. "I will support you through this pregnancy, raise that child as my own… but I made a promise Sage, I can’t fucking break it." I said quietly. It was at that moment that I realised no matter what was fucking thrown at me, I’d keep my word to her. "Kian, we are having a baby!" Sage sobbed, grabbing hold of my arm.
MORGANA His words made heat travel through my body. As much as I hated him, I couldn’t deny that he held an incredible pull over me. He knew it too, just how I knew I had a hold on him. It was a two-way thing. Riddled with our egos, our emotions, this bond and our hatred, we were stuck in this constant battle of wills and desire. It threw me off knowing he had told Sage he wanted me. He was openly admitting to what he desired. I didn’t understand him at all. He was cold, yet hot. He was a jerk, yet at times he could be... dare I admit it, charming. I hated him, yet I wanted to be in his arms. I wanted to see the darkness in him, yet I wanted to be his dirtiest fantasy too. He consumed me like an addiction I should never have tasted, one I couldn’t refuse. His lips met my neck once more and I bit my lip. My core throbbing. His hand around my throat tightened for a second and I was very aware of his cock against my ass. If he wasn’t so damn sexy
MORGANA I walked alongside Kian as we headed towards the summit, a place where women did not usually attend. It shocked me how this kingdom's power was completely in the hands of men. Today was a large summit, many of the visiting Alpha’s Beta’s or Delta’s would attend as well. I knew something was up from the way Kian’s Beta and his two Deltas that were attending were exchanging looks as they flanked us. "You know, it’s rude to mind-link when someone else is present." I stated, giving them all a sweet, dangerous smile, one I have been told looks quite creepy. That was the aim though. I wore a red high collared top with fitted sleeves, paired with black pants and heels. My hair was in a fish plait and although I wore some eyeliner and red lipstick, I kept the rest of my face make-up free. Small studs were in my ears and the huge ring Kian had given me sparkled brightly on my finger, something all three of Kian’s men noticed. He had given me bl
JUST OVER TEN YEARS LATER. KIAN "Xendaya!" Niko called to his younger sister. His hazel eyes were full of irritation as he glared at his sister, at ten he was already a strong big boy. He had patience when it came to his sisters, but Xen tested it often. I turned hearing her mischievous laughter. She was eight now, but she was her mother’s replica. Despite Xendaya having hazel eyes and hair that fell in waves, she had the very same mischievous smile that her mother had, and she was always up to no good. "I didn’t take it!" She denied. Lie. "Daddy, Xenie did!" Morwenna stated softly, blowing her hair out of her face. My little six-year-old petal, with her doe red eyes and soft black curls, she was the only one who was definitely a vampire. Needing blood from birth, whilst the other two seemed more wolf, but until their shift, we wouldn’t know. "Xen, what did you take?" I asked, frowning as I put down my paintbrus
MORGANA The night had been magical. Not once did Kian leave my side; his hands constantly touching me, caressing my waist, brushing his knuckles down my bare arms and back, or resting on my behind. Kissing my shoulder, back, neck and lips. His compliments didn’t fail, his eyes on me and me alone. Even when other single females approached to ‘congratulate’ us, it was clear their eyes were on MY mate. But even then, Kian only bothered with me, and I knew some of these may have been women he had slept with, but it was in the past. He was mine now. The room was decorated in gold and red, with the Clair De Lune roaring wolf on the black and gold banners hanging above. The large chandeliers glittered brightly, whilst candles and flowers decorated the entire hall. Food had been served in a luxurious seven-course meal, and alongside it, there was a bottle of blood that I knew was from Kian the moment I tasted it. A few Va
MORGANA "Is it to your liking, my lady?" The Omega asked as I stared into the mirror at my reflection. Tonight was the night of our official celebration. It had been two months since the war had ended and things had changed for the better. Life was finally returning back to normal. I was dressed in a luxurious satin rich maroon coloured dress. It was strapless with the bodice being sheer with lace work on the breast area. The satin skirt was fitted to the knees before it flared out with a trail. A thick lace embroidered border trimmed the entire trail, and around the hips was a wrapped pleated layer of satin that trailed the ground as an additional layer. My make-up was smoky on the eyes and my skin was glowing with a soft shimmer, covering my entire body with it. My lips were coloured a deep matte maroon. My nails were glittering gold too. I wore a large diamond necklace and earring set. On my wrists, I wore diamond bracelets on both
KIAN The following morning, I left Morgana with my journals. Not something I wanted to do, but… she’s mine and if she wants to know my past, she has the fucking right to. I just didn’t want to be around before she discovered all my fucking secrets, especially my doubts and my doodles. I was trying to remember everything I’d written, when I froze. Wait... I'm sure there were some passages about Sage. Fuck! Before I could even get up from my office chair, there was a knock on the door and Kai stepped inside. "You called for me, Kian?" He asked. I ran my hand down my face, massaging my jaw. The chances she’d read those chapters were minimal… right? There were several journals, I better make this fucking quick. "I did, take a seat." I said, motioning with a jerk of my head towards the seats opposite. "I know things have changed between us with time... Our priorities and decisions shaped our future and it, in turn, made us take different paths… but
MORGANA We had won! A trumpet sounded, along with the howling of wolves ringing in the air. I knew for miles around it would be heard, resounding our victory. The fae seemed to realise what had happened and began to fall back. Kian shifted back, motioning for our men who were chasing the fae to stop. Yet his eyes didn’t leave mine. My heart thumped seeing him, completely fine… alive... We had made it. I knew he was probably angry at the reckless move I had pulled but when Reuban had pulled me from the thick of the battle, I had shouted at him that I needed to go back. That was until I saw Kian’s wolf in the midst of the fire. I rode on his back until I came to where Kian was fighting the final of the four commanders. The idea had come suddenly to me, and seeing the opportunity I had gone for it. "That was fucking crazy." He growled, his eyes flashing, as my stomach fluttered. "But…" I blushed faintly, realising he was completely naked
KIAN Bloodshed. In every direction, people were fighting. Bond after bond was snapped as I lost men, knowing that with it their mates would soon die too. I ripped through a Fae, we were winning but… We needed to defeat the commanders, the four Fae princes, because we were still losing far too many. I was battling one of them right now, growling as I ripped his arm off before my claws sank into his body, tearing him to pieces. The sun was beginning to rise in the sky and morning was close. Pain suddenly shot through my back and my heart pounded. ‘Morgana! Where is she?! She’s hurt!’ I shouted through the link to Reuban, trying to control the fear that filled me. ‘I'm getting to her! Her brother’s joined the battle, Alpha! He killed one of the four commanders! The Ice Prince! ’ I was shocked that he actually did... For Azrael to turn around, that was no small feat. ‘I'm trying to get to her! She’s back up! Her brother is-
AZRAEL I was turning away when I heard Morgana shout, I looked back sharply as I sat upon my horse, staring through Olen’s Arch. I knew Morgana no matter what she wore or if her face was covered. She always held the grace and power of an Araton Royal; the way she held her swords, the way she fought and the way she struck down her enemies. She was one of the finest swordsmen of our kind. She was doubled over, gripping her waist as she fought off a Fae. Jaylen, the dick I was talking to and one of the four fae princes, raised his hand, motioning for them to storm through the arch that no longer stood where it once did. Morgana… "Your majesty, We need to go!" One of my men called out to me. I hesitated, staring back through the arch. I turned away, my heart racing as a memory from long ago flashed in my mind. (FLASHBACK) "Brother! Brother, look what I caught!" I glared down at my little sister. She was almost ten now, and
Morgana Night had fallen, Kian and I were seated with Azrael and Anastasia having dinner, although it was only Kian who had food considering how scarce it was in the kingdom. Kian looked at his plate of rabbit meat with some vegetables, compared to the food in the Clair De Lune kingdom, the three-course meal was very small. He didn’t comment on it and simply ate, I appreciated it. He already knew the situation of our people, and I knew he would be willing to open trade negotiations. We had in fact been discussing everything since Uncle’s death. The truth was out, and luckily, both kings wanted peace despite their clear dislike of one another. "You need to call this off. Tell the Fae you will not ride into battle." I said, very aware of Kian’s strong arm brushing against my bare one and resisting the urge to shiver in pleasure. "They aren’t so easy to simply say no to, not when we have already made an agreement… One that uncle kept advising me was the
KIAN Something was wrong. The moment I felt her storm of emotions through the bond, I left the room; grabbing some poison, antidote, and a long sword from her collection. I followed her scent as my emotions filled me like a storm. Not caring for the guards who started shouting and chasing me. "I need to find Morgana!" I growled, ripping them off me as I let my nose lead me, trying to calm the worry and fear that were gripping me for her safety. ‘Mate is in danger!’ Thanatos thundered and I could feel him trying to come to the front. I rushed through the doors where her scent was strong and several guards were gathered, clearly looking for something. Morgana’s scent was strong here, as well as the overpowering smell of blood. I took in the scene before me, the entire floor was practically covered in blood mixed with shattered glass, and several guards were searching the room. "What the… Who are you?!" One of them asked. I raised the swo
