Penn pulled away slightly. 

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“I have to calm down or I’ll mark you.”

“Do it.”

Penn’s glowing green eyes widened before lunging for my neck again. Still he fought off the urge. 

“Zelda...if you don’t mean this, I can’t take it back.” Although we were talking, his thrusts stayed at the same pace. 

“I said I was yours.” I moaned. “So take me Penn.”

I wasn’t scared this time. Penn wasn’t Cedric. I was giving him permission. He loved me and this would show the world that he did. 

Penn’s hand slipped under neck, tilting it up. The glowing in his eyes was brighter than ever. I closed my eyes as he leaned down.

I held him tightly as his teeth fully penetrated my neck. I tried to focus on the pleasure of making love as opposed to the pain of his bite.

    Operation Matchmaker was in full effect.Penn and I didn’t tell anyone about our plan, because frankly we didn’t think they could handle such a plan. We were going to get Prince Mako and Princess Ria alone and talk the other up. Their egos were so damn big, we knew for sure that would work with them. Who doesn't like to hear how attractive and smart they are?Mention how attractive they are and maybe sprinkle in a lie or two about how the other mentioned something nice about them. Manipulation and lying were not good, but if it meant we would get to continue our journey, I would say we shouldn’t rule it out.Princess Ria would be our first target. I felt she and I kind of had a connection. We were both women in positions of power. We were practically best friends.“I have to say, I’m surprised that you wanted to speak to me Empress,” Princess Ria admitted. “I wasn’t sure you liked me very much.”

  • The Empress and the Alpha    Double Date

    I was preparing for the double date when there was a knock on the door. I was desperately hoping it was Penn, but I was disappointed to see Cedric walk through the door. Any and all feelings that I previously thought I had for him were gone completely. Erased by my bond with Penn. It was so relieving. Of course I was still worried about if he won the trials and having to be his wife. Having his children and watching him destroy Uquix. That was not a life I looked forward to at all. “Can we talk?” He questioned. “Make it quick.” I stated. “I have to get ready for my date.” “Why did you let him mark you?” “Because I love him. The only reason I didn’t let him do it sooner was because of you.” “Because you still love me?” I laughed. “No, because you scarred me. When you bit me, you changed the course of my entire life. I was afraid of what Penn’s bite would do. But last night when we were making love

    We had to help Prince Mako back to the water. It was harder than we thought and he ranted the entire time.“I should have known it would never have worked out with that wench! Rude, ungrateful temptress! She knew wearing that bra would draw me in! She planned this the entire time!”“I don’t think that’s true.” Penn stated. “She really did like you. But then you called her family deceptive and untrustworthy. Women don’t like that.”“She called my family petty and horrible.” Prince Mako shot back.“And was she wrong?” I asked.“Well...I suppose not, but my family didn’t start the feud.”“Maybe they did.”“No way!” His tail flailed in anger.“Stop moving or we’re going to drop you.” Penn said.“Can you move faster? I would like to give that diabolical woman a

    Those fuckers!Those manipulating scheming fuckers!Oh they were surely going to pay for this. I would not be manipulated into breaking up with Penn. I was going to get them back.“I can’t believe they’re working together just to take me down.” Penn shook his head. “I’m so powerful.”“Yeah you are baby.” I whispered.I watched as they went back to their rooms before we made our way to ours.“So what are we going to do about them?” Penn questioned.“We’re going to give them exactly what they want.”“We’re going to break up?”“No, darling, but you will find me in a compromising with Hunter and attack him. Just don't’ really hurt him. He’ll regret teaming up with Cedric after that.” I laughed.“How doesn’t Hunter realize that this works in Cedric’s fav

    There was silence in the room.Sitting at the table was me, Penn, Prince Mako, Princess Ria and Count Orman.“Um, Princess Ria, why don’t you speak first. What was your family told about the Laikens?” I asked.She took a deep breath. “Well, I was told that the Laikens betrayed us decades ago. We had this pearl. Pearl of Ura. It was a family heirloom bestowed upon us by the Goddess herself. One day it disappeared. The Laikens were seen stealing it from our castle in the night. Still they refuse to admit to their crimes. And thus our alliance was broken.”“Okay...Prince Mako what did you hear?”“That exact story, except it was our Gem of Xaxtar. Just as Princess Ria said, the gem was bestowed to our family. Our gem disappeared in the night, never to be seen again. And of course someone saw the Zales commit the crime! That’s the real reason there is no alliance.” Prince Mako

    “Now, wait a minute!” I laughed. “No. I-I didn’t tell you to do all of that!” I exclaimed.“Well, we know you didn’t tell us to, but you sure did inspire us to.” Prince Mako smiled. “You said we could have a great love story.”“Yes, I suppose I did, but I thought you would be ruling together against all odds.”“We’ve been forced into ruling by our families. We never had a choice. I mean the only reason I ever really wanted to rule was because I didn’t want Prince Mako to. Because my parents told me I had to beat him. But I never wanted any of this. I want to see the world. Know what’s beyond the horizon.” Princess Ria whispered.I sighed. “I understand that, Princess Ria, I do. I guess I’m just shocked. I mean I was supposed to help The Slumbering Reef get a ruler. What now?”“It has its ruler in Count Orman.&rdq

  • The Empress and the Alpha    Aleni

    The walk so far had been quite nice.Maybe because I was deliriously in love and feeling Penn’s hand in mine was giving me a rush of emotions. I finally felt content. Maybe Moxdea was actually right and this would be the easiest part of the journey.Maybe I was the only person who felt that way. The others seemed to be arguing behind us. I heard hushed whispers and angry tones. What was even going on?I didn’t bother turning around to look. I was determined to have a nice time!“Zeke you said I could be with who I wanted to be with!” Posy exclaimed.“He’s an Aleni!” Zeke declared.“So is your fiance!”“That’s-that’s different! He wasn’t Aleni when I fell in love with him!”“That doesn’t stop you from having sex with him all the time! You’re even considering marrying him after all he’s done! He betr

    The bed was shaking furiously as I came out of my sleep.“Zelda! Zelda, wake up you won’t believe it!” Penn had never sounded more excited.“What?” I mumbled.“Babe, it’s snowing! Like literal snow is falling from the sky! I’ve never seen snow before, it’s so amazing!”“Snow?” I shot up excitedly.Like Penn, I had never seen snow up close before.We got dressed quickly and ran outside.What the fuck?!Snow was cold as shit! No one ever told me that! They said it was fun and soft and you could make three balled men out of them. But never did they mention it was freezing and unpleasant on the skin.I was not at all prepared for this.“Oh that’s cold!” Penn cried out. “But it might not be if…”I watched him shift into wolf form. Penn’s wolf seemed to enjoy the s

    My body felt a shock at once. Electricity flowed quickly and then expelled itself out of my body. Was I going to die again? I wondered as I fell to my knees. I breathed heavily as the last of the lightning left. I paused to make sure I wasn’t going to die again. “Zelda!” I looked up and saw Penn running over to me. “Penn!” He scooped me up in his arms and held me tightly. “I thought I lost you!” “How relieved were you?” I joked. He set me down and kissed me. “Very relieved. But now you’re back and I’m miserable again.” I kissed him again. “Are you lying to an Empress? That’s a crime.” “And what would be my punishment?” Penn smiled down at me. “You have to marry me…for real this time.” “You sure I can’t just take death?” I laughed as Zeke ran over to us and embraced me. “Tell me that’s the last time you almost die!” “No promises. I think it’s over now, though.” I smiled.&nb

    Posy’s POV I hated her. Why did she do this? Why would she kill herself just to save the rest of us? Why wasn’t she selfish and logical? Why wouldn’t she just let us die for her with honor? Because Empress Zelda Xanatheal was a great leader. No one even cared about Cedric the moment Zelda hit the ground. The Aleni had been struck down and we had no one left to fight. We only wanted to see Zelda. I got to her first. I cried out upon feeling how limp she was in my arms. “Zelda?” I screamed. “Wake up Zelda, now!” She wouldn’t budge. The boys had transformed and put on their pants. Penn dropped to his knees. “Zelda?” He choked out. “Zelda, please wake up. I need you Zelda, please.” He was sobbing as he hugged her lifeless body. Hunter tried to comfort him, but he just pulled away and wailed. “I can’t live without her!” Penn cried out. “I can’t! How do we bring her back? Someone

    I stepped towards Cedric in horror. “You killed your father?” I asked shakily. “We both know he deserved it.” “What are you doing here?” “Oh, was I not invited? I’m sorry, I figured maybe my invitation got lost in the crystal mirror.” He feigned innocence. “Cedric, why are you here?” I cried. “You look so pretty in your wedding dress…and I’d make the perfect groom. Everyone’s already here Zel, let’s just do it.” “No, no! We had a deal, Cedric, you swore. Don’t do this!” “Ah the deal…yeah I thought about that, constantly over the last month. I don’t like it. I didn’t go through all of that shit to end up without you. So…the deal is off.” Cedric was many things, but he wasn’t usually a liar. The only thing he had ever really lied to me about was killing Astris and it only took him a few moments to reveal that lie. He didn’t believe in lying, he thought it was a waste of time. He was fine with being rut

    “Holy fuck!” I exclaimed. “You’re serious?!” “Very serious,” Penn said nervously digging into his pocket. He pulled out a stunning ring with a gorgeous blue gem on it. “Is that the -” “Gem of Xaxtar from Prince Mako, yeah. I know it was supposed to be a necklace, but I think it would look better on your finger. Posy helped me make it.” He smiled. “So? Can I be your Emperor for life?” “Yes! Of course! Absolutely!” I screamed. Penn got up and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around him tightly, absolutely elated. This was everything I ever wanted. I saved Uquix and I was going to marry the love of my life! He slipped the ring on my finger and I admired it. “It’s huge!” I exclaimed. “Isn’t it?” Posy asked. “I knew you’d love it!” “I can’t believe you didn’t tell me! I mean look at me I have soot all over my face and clothes!” I laughed. “You look beautiful,” Penn assured me before kissing me aga

    The lava immediately stopped flowing as golden light shot out the Shadow Precipice. A stunning woman walked out of the light even though there was no ground to stand on. She was stunning! Her long golden hair flowed behind her as the gold light danced off of her dazzling brown skin. Her white eyes were terrifying and yet so warm. She stood between Cedric and I as though trying to decide who the winner was. She turned to Cedric and my heart dropped. I really had lost. But I gave my best effort and everything that I had. I did my best, even if it wasn’t good enough. “You gave a great effort,” She said to Cedric. Suddenly it was just the woman and me. Cedric had disappeared. “Empress Zelda…you are the winner of The Four Trials of the Forsaken Apex.” Wait, I recognized that voice. “Moxdea?” I asked. “Yes, Empress, it is I. In my true form. You have released me from my duty by completing t

    We started climbing up the volcano slowly. We figured we should take it slow before things got out of control. The constant rumbling made me incredibly anxious. The volcano could erupt at any point. “Nervous?” Cedric questioned after a few moments of silence. “What makes you think that?” “You’re not usually quiet unless you feel unsure.” “Well...yes I am a little nervous but only because everything we’ve done these last few weeks has led up to this moment. Are you nervous?” I asked. “Yeah a little bit,” He admitted. “About what?” “Losing. Imagine I betrayed my kingdom and killed hundreds of creatures just to lose.” “Wow that would be really embarrassing for you,” I snorted. “Oh shut up.” “What else happened in your weird dream when we went in the quicksand?” I questioned. “It was so strange, but I was really happy. You were my wife. We wanted babies. I thought you we

Hopefully he could come back and spend more time with Nova and really get to know her.“It was an honor and a privilege to meet you, Empress Zelda. Please come back any time and visit us.” Nova stated.“She will,” Cedric assured her. “She’ll be back as my wife. Who knows, maybe we’ll make a baby here.”“Everytime I stop being disgusted with you, you give me a reason to be again. Congratulations, it’s really a talent.” I declared.“You’re so in love with me,” He grinned.“Anyways, Nova, you are welcome to Gynem any time, really.” I hugged her.“I know my son is a nuisance sometimes, but I would love to have you as a daughter-in-law.&r

    There were shouts of panic ringing in the air.As Penn and I were surrounded, I tried to see where the third dagger went. I quickly found out when Hunter started wailing. It was sticking out of his arm, so at least he wasn’t in immediate danger.“Save Zelda,” Penn said hoarsely. “Please, her not me.”“No save Penn first,” I breathed.“Zelda, you’re the priority!” Posy cried.“Royal Vizier Posy, as Empress of Gynem I order you to save Penn first!”Talking with a dagger in my stomach was not easy or pleasant, but I had to get my point across. Penn needed to come first.“What happened?” Zeke ran over to us. “Zelda, no!” He dropped on his knees next to me. “You’re going to be okay. Oh Veone, that’s a lot of blood!”“It’s okay, I’ll be fine.”I didn’t completel
