The Hidden King and I Chapter 33
Ash’s point of viewWhen we get back to the house, Dylan goes straight to his room, Ash walks into the kitchen, and I follow behind as I say."Ash?""What, babe." He replies with a frustrated sigh."You couldn't have stopped Areon from doing what he did to me; you were locked up in a cage."He runs his hand over his chin as he replies. "I know; I wish I could have stopped him; I will never forget what I saw that night, and it kills me that I couldn't do a thing to stop him.""I know, baby." I whisper as I wrap my arms around his back, feeling him sink against me as I rest my head on his muscular back, I whisper,"You need to speak to Dylan; he thinks you blame him for being expelled, and he did what any decent human would do; he stopped that girl from being attacked."Ash turns around, pulling me into his arms as he says. "I know, baby, he did what I couldn't."I lean up to kiss his lips as I say."Don't you dare blame yourself, Ash. You are the one who got me away from that monster,
The Hidden King and I Chapter 34
Ash's point of view.After spending the evening at Stan's house, we come home and make love, every time with Anna gets better. I've never felt this way before, but God do I love this woman; she makes me happy, and she's so much happier in herself now the Vampire curse has been reversed; it just makes me fall in love with her a little more.Dylan has managed to put the past behind him, and the two of them are best friends these days; it's good to see the bond they share; they are like brother and sister. I guess you could say that we are our own little dysfunctional family, and it somehow works.I pull her into my arms. For once in my life, feeling contented, she sighs before she whispers quietly. "Ash, do you find the strength that Dylan processes strange for a twelve-year-old boy?"Fuck!......I don't find it strange because that boy is exactly the same as me. All my life, I've been fitter and stronger than anyone around me; that includes Bear, who is a seven-foot freak of nature. As
The Hidden King and I Chapter 35
Ash's point of viewShe said yes, and I feel like the happiest man in the world. Tonight has been a strange night, a night full of mixed emotions. I let those emotions get the better of me as I just blurted out those four little words."Will you marry me?"In my head, I had planned to do things so differently, but she said yes!"You mean it?"I ask as she giggles, "Of course, I mean it, Ash, I cannot wait to be your wife." I chuckle as I say. "I'm sorry, I never meant to ask you like this. I wanted to make it perfect."She wipes away her tears as she whispers. "Ash, I'm glad you asked me tonight; you opened up to me tonight and told me things that nobody else knows, even though it was hard for you to do. To end this night like this is perfect."I grin before walking over to my bedside table and finding the ring that I have been hiding away; I walk back over to Anna, taking her hand in mine before dropping to my knees as I say." My beautiful little Anna, will you make me the happiest
The Hidden King and I Chapter 36
Ash's point of view. We pull up outside the Fire pit; Dylan goes to run off to the training rings, I shout out. "Dylan, before you get kitted up, can we have a word with you and the guys. Anna and I have some news that we would like to share with you all." He lets out a frustrated sigh before he replies. "Sure." I chuckle as I help Anna out of the car, thankful I'm not a teenager anymore. We head inside; Bear is in the main ring with a group of youngsters. I'm amazed how well the big guy has settled here. The kids love him; that's once they get over the initial shock at the size of him. He nods his head as we walk in, and I shout out. "Have you got a minute, buddy?" "Yeah, sure." He replied before leaving the group of kids with one of the other fighters; he jumps through the ropes before making his way to us." "What's up, Ash?" He asks as I reply...."Let's just grab stan; then we can have a drink." Stan is in the bar area, going through the stock; he grins when we walk in. We
The Hidden King and I Chapter 37
Anna's point of viewI watch, smiling as the three of them hug it out, I'm glad Ash has good friends, and I know these two will never let him down, and Dylan and I will always be taken care of because of Ash.These three men will always look out for us.After Ash shares a joke about his Vampire Pet owner being a bit of all right, he grabs hold of me and pulls me into the hug, and I find myself eloped in the middle of these three huge men. I've never felt as though I've belonged anywhere for a long time, but this feels right. These guys are my new family, and it feels good to have a place to call home.We end up having a few more drinks, celebrating our engagement, before Ash gets one of the other fighters to take us home so that he can leave the car at the Pit. Dylan has decided to stay for a while with Bear and some of the other fighters. They will probably end up staying in a couple of the bedrooms upstairs.We know that Bear will look after him.Ash always has rooms ready for any
The Hidden King and I Chapter 38
Anna's point of viewWe're just finishing our breakfast when Bear rings to let us know that he's bringing Dylan home, telling us that he thinks it's time to speak to him about his strength.I agree with Bear; the sooner Dylan knows, the sooner we can help him understand this.Ash nods his head in agreement; although I know he's finding this hard, he knows the implications that come with this power, and once Dylan knows, it will change his life forever. Ash worries that telling him now is someone going to take a part of his childhood away.Probably because he's been there himself, but Ash had to go through this alone; Dylan has us now, a family, He wont have to deal with this alone.I put my arms around Ash's massive frame leaning my head on his chest as I whisper. "It's going to be okay, Ash, Dylan, has all of us now; we will help him to get through this."He nods his head as he whispers. "I know, baby; it's just that I know how hard this is going to be on him."I lean up and kiss his
The Hidden King and I Chapter 39
Ash's point of view.With the help of Anna and Bear, I finally pick up the courage to tell Dylan my story; at first, I see the admiration in his eyes, but that admiration quickly fades to realisation, and when I get to the final part, fear. The feeling I know too well is the fear of the unknown, the fear of realising that you're not the same as everyone else; there is something different, something that's a little inhuman.I pull him into my arms as I say."We will get through this, kid; you're not on your own anymore; we're all here to help you."Then my heart breaks as I watch him fall apart in my arms, Dylan has built walls around him all of his life, and it's hard to forget that he is just a child.I should get it, though, because I've been in the exact same spot where he is right now, only I did it alone, but Dylan won't ever be alone in this. He has me and Anna and Bear, who I know from experience will help him to get control of his fears, and then lastly, there's Stan, the best
The Hidden King and I Chapter 40
Ash's point of view. We spend most of Saturday in bed; what can I say? My little queen is insatiable, not that I'm complaining. I love it. Dylan has decided to have a sleepover at the Fire pit with Bear and a few of the guys. I think it's good for him to get away from the pair of us for a while and mix with the younger lads down at the Pit. I know there's no need to worry about him, not when Bear is around. And tonight, he has his fight; I've matched him with a very capable fighter. Although he doesn't know it yet, tonight is more about seeing if he has learnt to hold back rather than winning the match because I know he can win, but will he hold back? That's what I need to see. The fighter in question, Skid, has been told to goad him and try to get a reaction from him. We need to do this. We need to know that he's ready to face the world and ready to go back to school on Monday. We can't have him beating the shit out of the other kids at school; yes, he got away with it this time

The Hidden King and I Chapter 85
Anna’s point of view.And that is how I became the Queen Dragon, and although the day has been perfect, and we are married under the Moon Goddess, I know it’s not the kind of wedding Ash really wanted, but thanks to Cookie and Stans's wife Linda, I have my own surprise for him when we get back to the bunker.We say our goodbye to the moon goddess after she whispers to me,“The Queen stone must be carried with you at all times; as soon as it sees the light, it will expose your Dragon powers, but the stone can also be used to call me to you; if ever you need my help Anna, you can call me through the stone.”Thank you, Moon Goddess, I whisper, before she disappears back into the night sky. Ophelie looks at me as she says, “We have prepared a feast for our King and Queen.”We follow the witches back to their lair as the wolves part, leaving an aisle for us to walk through. Ash squeezes my hand as he whispers, “I know it’s not the kind of wedding you wanted, baby, but I am so happy to hav

Anna’s point of viewSo, it is the following morning, and we are oft to Eden Forest once more, only this time for the first time. It is for a joyous occasion because today is the day I get to become Ash’s wife, Mrs Ash Willaims, Queen of the Dragons.Who would have thought it possible all those weeks ago when all I ever wanted was to be a normal person, and now all I ever need to be my King’s side, The Dragon King, the true king of the people, the man who will end this war and set humanity free.You couldn't write this shit, could you!I smile as we pull into the outskirts of the forest. The forest is decorated in green ribbons, and when Darius and his pack come to find us, they each wear a green, collar the colour every one associates with The Dragon King—Emerald green, just like his beautiful scales.I hold Ash’s hand as the wolves guide us to the witch's lair. Ophelia is the first to greet us with a warm hug, as do the other three witches.Darius leads Ash away as Ophelia ushers me
The Hidden King and I Chapter 83
Anna’s point of view.After the breakfast of Dragons, we head outside again, only this time we have Bear and Cookie with us; it’s time to learn the art of fire breathing.I watch as Ash and Dylan each take the gem that turns them into their Dragons, and yes, they are still as magnificent as they were this morning; I have to laugh as when Cookie see the size of Ash’s Dragon, I swear his eyes popped out from his head.Yes, Cookie, he is impressive! Both in Human form and in Dragon form.I somehow end up being the mediator between the two Dragons and their two best friends; Bear raises an eyebrow at this, and I shrug my shoulders and smile. How can I explain something that I do not understand myself? After a couple of hours, Ash lets out a long sigh * I can’t do it; it’s not working**It will, Ash; we must keep trying* I reply, trying to sound confident for his sake when, really, I have no idea if this is ever going to work. All I know is that for the Army to penetrate the underworld, t
The Hidden King and I Chapter 82
Anna's point of view.After many hours of talks with the high witch of Eden forest, it would seem that the only way to open up the underworld is by fire, and it just so happens that we have two huge Dragons on our side, Two huge inexperienced Dragons who must both learn how to fly and breath fire, Dylan is quite happy for once that he has a little more experience than Ash. and I smile as I watch the pair of them together,We are standing above the waterfall today, out in the open. Yes, it may be dangerous, but Ash hopes that no one knows of this place, and when a dragon needs to learn how to fly, then it would be dangerous to be seen.So here we are…Dylan stands above the waterfall, and I must admit I feel a bit anxious as I watch him. Ash unwraps the Dragon Heart Gem, and within minutes, two magnificent Dragons stand before me, Dragons whose scales shimmer in the early morning light. They really are a beautiful sight to see.Dylan looks to Ash as he says, *Just let your wings unfold
The Hidden King and I Chapter 81
Anna’s point of viewWe stay locked in each other’s grasp until I shiver in his arms; Ash gently places me down as he whispers.“Let’s get you out of here before you catch a cold baby,” I have to giggle as he passes me a towel hidden in some nook in the cave, and I whisper, “You think of everything Ash”“Everything except spare clothes, I must remember that for next time,” he chuckles. as he hands me his boxer shorts and t-shirt. Once I'm dry, I slip into his t-shirt, which drops to my knees, before pulling his boxers on; he looks at me as he says,“I like you in my clothes; everyone knows that you are mine.”Which makes me giggle as I say, “I think they all know I’m yours by now, Ash.” He smiles.“You were always meant to be mine, Anna,” he says before taking my hand as he leads me back along the narrow ledge to the balcony, which is thankfully still empty, and we step back through the gate unnoticed. We're not so lucky when we get inside, though as all heads turn to look at us, I c

The Hidden King and IChapter 80Anna's point of viewAsh and the rest of the guys keep their promise and enjoy the whole weekend off. It is a weekend of fun and friendship, relaxation and happiness. It's good to see the atmosphere like this. It would seem they all needed this, but when Monday morning comes around, it's all back to business and back to planning the next step of this war with the Demons.Ash is up at the crack of dawn as usual, and after a quick shower, I join them in the kitchen as I help prepare the breakfasts for the troops; it's not an easy task when you have a few hundred mouths to feed,I join Bear at the stove, and Dylan and Cookie lend a hand, too; Cookie seems to be a good influence on him. He is not your typical moody twelve-year-old anymore; he is mature for his age and fits in here with all of the other guys. I have heard him talking of his girlfriend, though I do think he's missing her.I know that Ash and Dylan, being the powerful Dragons they are, will b

The Hidden King and IChapter 79Anna's point of viewI wake up in the morning still wrapped in Ash's strong arms. I let out a sigh of contentment as I watch him sleep; he looks so peaceful when he sleeps, I giggle as I try to slide out of his arms; he lets out a groan but doesn't wake up, After using the toilet, I'm tempted to slide back into the bed beside him, but when I get a whiff of the bacon cooking, there's no way I can; it has been weeks since I've been able to eat properly my stomach grumbles as I follow the smell to the kitchen where I find Bear at the stove, I immediately grab some food as I help him to cook breakfast for the troops, it feels like I've never been away from the place, Bear grins as he says,"Boy, is it good to have you back, little lady?"I smile as I reply; it's good to be back, even though I feel as though I've never been away.He laughs, "Yeah, it must seem a little strange." "More than a little strange," I say with a giggle,"First, I find out that m

The Hidden King and IChapter 78Anna's point of view.I wake up in Ash's arms as usual, but when I open my eyes and look around the roomI notice that I am no longer in the hospital or at the bunker.I turn my head to Ash, he smiles when he sees me awake, and I whisper,"Where are we, Ash?""At Eden Forest, in Ophelia's house."I frown; what the hell! I do not remember being here, and I don't know why we are here. And I listen quietly as Ash tells me everything.I'm carrying the Dragon heir….Ash chuckles as he says,"I know it's a lot to take in. God, I wish you could have seen everything that happened today; I wish you could have seen our baby the way I did; it was beautiful."Bear's deep voice calls from the doorway."About that" He hands me his phone before pressing play; it feels unreal as I look at the screen and watch myself. I'm lying on Eden Rock. I remember it from last time, and I watch as the witches chant and the wolves howl; the most beautiful white lady appears above
