Klaus:
I tightened my arms around my wife who stirred in her sleep as she got another nightmare.
It’s been the case since we finished the war. She’s been too shaken up about it to even speak of what happened, but I could easily read her mind and see what she saw.
The visions that were in front of her made her feel like everything she chose to believe in as she grew up was a lie. The fact that she had sent Lorenzo to kill her father didn’t go unknown or unspoken of, which made their already broken relationship hit an all time low this time. The queen refused to look at Kiara, even when she learned of her daughter’s pregnancy, the queen had refused to come and be by her side.
Now my wife was in her last month. It’s been three months since we found out of the pregnancy, and with her carrying a hybrid child inside her, the pregnancy was a lot faster than most. But that only meant consequence…
With my wife’s we
It’s been years since anyone has seen or heard of the hybrid king that they began to believe that he had lost hope in the girl being born.King Leonardo and his wife, Queen Annalise had made sure to be careful about who entered the palace and who didn’t, making sure to hide their daughter from all eyes, in fear that the hybrid might hear of her being born.The beautiful princess grew as years went by, and she grew more curious with every passing day, she wanted to learn what was beyond these palace walls, why she was never allowed to go out to the palace garden unescorted when it was simply their home, but of course she got no answer, no one would even look at her to explain what was going on, why they were hiding her, and what they were hiding her from, not that she expected them to anyway, she was far used to being ignored by her family by now.“One day, I will learn what is beyond these walls, and when that day comes, no one is going to stop
Kiara:“Princess, you know the rules” mother said looking at me, I sighed, despite it being against the rules as well, a princess was never allowed to sigh.“Mother! I am eighteen, I can’t stay locked up forever” I said getting frustrated, it was impossible how they thought that locking me up was okay, my curly brown hair bouncing as I walked behind her in her study, our emerald green eyes met and she shook her head wanting me to stop with the subject, but I wasn’t going to, not until I at least got what I wanted this time.“Kiara, no” mother said sternly.“Mother, please” I begged looking her in the eye “Lorenzo will be with me, and as will Giovanni, why won’t you allow it?”“It is not safe for you out there!” Mother snapped before pinching the bridge of her nose and composing herself and taking a deep breath looking at me, my eyes wide as I stared at her, co
Kiara:I ran out of the palace as fast as I could, though I was careful not to be seen.The door however, was a little rusty and was a little hard to unlatch, but I luckily managed to do it without opening it too wide, slipping out of it, then closing it enough for me to reopen when I needed to go back before running out as fast and as far as I could.It took a while, but I was suddenly met by the city lights which made me smile as I saw everything around me up close, I had always seen them from my chamber’s window, but never in front of me.I didn’t realize that I was standing in the middle of the road until a car honked its horn at me causing me to jump in fright and blush at the man who was driving, he shook his head at me and I quickly walked to the side walk and smiled as I watched the beautiful night sky, the lights, the different shops, couples, everything seemed surreal that I feared waking up in the palace, and this being nothing but
Klaus:I watched as my future wife, mate, ran out of her palace as fast as she could and smiled.It took her long enough to do it in the first place as I had expected her to run away a long time ago, but then again, she was still too young and innocent for that kind of thing.She stood in the middle of the road admiring the view of the stars and the moon in the night sky, something that she did back when she was in her chamber, therefor to see everything she was seeing right now up-close only made her smile.I walked toward the bakery which was on the side of the road and noticed that they were making a fresh batch of dessert, I looked at my mate once again before vampire speeding toward the bakery and looking at the man who smiled upon seeing me clearly not noticing that I vampire sped toward his door.“Good evening sir” he smiled at me.“Good evening” I smiled back, I looked at my mate once more to find a car honkin
Kiara: I woke up with a smile on my face. I was in my chamber. Tucked in bed. In my jeans and black long-sleeved shirt. Hold on… What? “Princess, it’s time to wake up” I heard Emily walk inside my chamber, I tucked myself under the blanket hiding my outfit only for my eyes to widen when I saw a paper beside me under the blanket, the same familiar cursive writing on it catching my eyes. “Princess?” Emily asked looking at me tucked under the blanket, I quickly grabbed the small paper and hid it in one of the pants pockets before muttering sleepily. “Just ten more minutes Emily” I said as I usually did, I knew that she’d walk out as she always did when I asked for them, they usually came to wake me ten to fifteen minutes earlier than I was supposed to be up anyway. My smile widened when I heard the door close as Emily walked out and I untucked myself from under the blanket to open the note, biting my bottom
Kiara:The best part about going to a ball was getting ready for it, note the heavy sarcasm, which of course mother would be scolding me for if she heard me, but luckily, she can’t read my mind.At least I hope she can’t.Anyway, back to subject, I had been trying on dresses since eleven in the morning, settling for a cream ball gown, chiffon covered the whole dress giving it a beautiful bridal texture as the sleeves which were draped around my upper arms, though keeping my neck, collarbones, chest, and arms exposed, tight around the waist and then it would loosen all the way to the ground.The heels I chose for the evening were matching beige heels, though they wouldn’t be visible under the long dress, I still had to choose them carefully as my feet may be exposed for whatever reason that may occur and I had to be at my best appearance.Taylor was making my hair, fixing its natural curls into more defined ones as she insisted tha
Kiara:“PRINCESS KIARA OF PATRAVIA!”They announced my arrival to the ball, and I stood at the top of the stairs, standing elegantly as I eyed the guests carefully, Patravia, the kingdom where I have grown my whole life, but never had the chance to visit or see.It was odd thinking about it, I read about my kingdom all the time, but had it not been going out two nights ago, I would’ve never had the chance to visit the kingdom, and see what it really was, how the people were, and who they were, in my eyes, only the palace servants and other royalties existed, I’ve never seen any commoners, well, that changed now, but of course no one here knew that.I went down slowly, careful not to trip on my heels, and also giving the ones who were watching a show, I had been trained how to go up and down these stairs so many times, how fast I was supposed to go, where I was to look, which was in front of me, no matter who stood from the guests,
Klaus:I looked at the guests who lowered their gazes when they met my intense one, not caring that they had nothing to do with the princess being upset or hurt, just the fact that they saw what they did, the way they did annoyed me, and I made sure to show it.I followed the princess’s scent and heartbeat out of the ball room to find her in the hall close to the door as she wiped her eyes from the tears that fell out of them, slowly making my way toward her, not wanting to frighten or annoy her more than she probably was, I slowly took her hand in mine stopping her from wiping her tears and doing it myself, she involuntarily leaned in to my touch, her body taking over her senses before her mind could process the mating pull.“I apologize for what happened” I said honestly, my eyes meeting hers in a soft gaze, her once emerald green eyes now bloodshot red from crying, I didn’t like the sight, it had my wolf howling as my fangs and canines

Kiara:I never understood what my parents feared when they said that the world outside the palace was a dangerous place. I always wanted to go out and explore. I hated being locked in the palace for years. Well, at least until I saw what I have today.To say that getting mother out of the palace was hard wouldn’t be an understatement. However, I wouldn’t lie when I say that us leaving the palace didn’t seem like the best idea at the moment. People were on the verge of eating one another, literally.How it happened was something that I couldn’t understand. I knew that the kingdom had its issues when I was here. However, I never expected to see what I was seeing today, nor did I expect to see the terror that I was currently witnessing.It was like poverty had spread all around the kingdom, and now all they saw and wanted was to kill one another for the smallest loaf of bread. Had Caspian not stopped four of them, they would’ve
Klaus:I glared at the man, my brother, who stood beside the dragon. His eyes amused as he watched the people flee, fear could be seen in their eyes, expressions, and even their body languages. Never had I imagined seeing my brother being this evil. Growing up, the man had the heart of an angel. I will admit that we have been harmed, the humans have not left us alone for years. But that didn’t mean that we had darkened, the man’s heart completely died and he had lost all senses of humanity.Having sent my mate to the human world. I feared what was to come, and I knew that there was no way for me to handle it if anything happened to her, nor would I be able to focus knowing that she could be in danger at any given moment. At least in the palace, having Lorenzo and Caspian by her side, I would know that she would be somewhat safer than she would ever be here in the kingdom, even if she was with the bastard she called a father.“I see that your pe
Kiara:“Klaus, there’s no way…”“Kiara, please don’t argue with me this time. Go back to the human kingdom. It is a lot safer for you there…”“Klaus, no. I won’t leave you…”“Kiara, this is life or death. You are with child and I will not be able to focus with you here…” Klaus cupped my cheeks and kissed me gently “Caspian, Lorenzo, guard her with your life. I will come and get her when everything is done”My eyes widened when I saw that he had put the teleportation amulet around my neck and having ordered it to take us away, the amulet started glowing making me shake my head. I watched as my love ran out the window before everything blurred and I was suddenly in the middle of the palace’s throne room. Mother’s eyes widened when she saw me and my hands shook in fear. Father was nowhere to be seen.“Kiara?” Mother
Niklaus:“Did she speak?” I asked Lorenzo who had just sucked Rosetta dry.He was in charge of this task after his brother’s death, knowing that nothing would avenge him for the death of his brother except this. I assigned him to do this, he knew that Verone’s death would be on my hands, as I couldn’t give him that, I offered to allow him to kill the one person who Verone would die for, and though Lorenzo was initially against it. He was not one to lay his finger on a woman, he knew that this was the closest thing to killing Verone that there was.“Not a word. I’ve killed her twenty-eight times already, the woman just keeps coming back to life and says nothing as she smiles and waits to see what I have on my sleeve for her. She would taunt for a while, but she knows the fate that would hit her eventually” Lorenzo said and I nodded looking at Rosetta who was coming back to life once again, this time the woman seemed
Kiara:“Baby girl, you need to sit down” Niklaus whispered to me and I shook my head at him pacing around the people who were in need, everything was a mess. The people who have managed to escape the terrifying events that happened were either coming to their senses after the shock they’ve been through or healing using vampire blood. The people were petrified and despite not wanting to show it, I was too, and I was well aware that my husband could feel it too.Everyone around us has lost their homes, most of them have lost their families and loved ones. I couldn’t handle the situation that we were put in, what I saw, the people’s screams and cries filled my ears and the vision of the fire haunted my mind the second I closed my eyes. Niklaus has been watching me for the past hour trying to stop me, but all his tries went in vain. I needed to keep myself distracted before everything that happened hit me. As I knew that this was no time or pl
Niklaus:“I see that your mate left” Rosetta said when she caught sight of me. I raised an eyebrow at her when I entered the ballroom and her blue eyes met my own, she looped my arm with hers when she saw me approach her “aren’t you going to greet me, my king?”“I can tell that you’re still as observant as you always were” I said glaring at Rosetta who rolled her eyes on me, she smiled at the guests who were leaving. Their eyes looking at our joined hands for a second before they bowed and walked out of the ballroom fearing me noticing their eyes.“Do you really believe that she’s safe because you made her leave the palace Niklaus?” Rosetta asked making me frown in confusion, I could tell that her tone was nowhere near being normal. I glared at the woman whose lips twitched up as she tried fighting back a smile “have you already forgotten who I am and what I’m capable of?”
Kiara:“ALL HAIL QUEEN KIARA!”I walked out the door as Lorenzo announced my arrival to the guests who attended the gathering that we were having. Grace was already with the guests who stood up and bowed to me when the announcement was made. I smiled and nodded at the to rise before going to sit in my place beside Grace. The ball was enchanted to bring out couches where the ladies were to sit. However, these couches would be disappearing when the ball officially began.Fixing the dress I was wearing as to make sure that it wasn’t wrinkled, the dress was royal green. My sleeves reached my elbows as my chest and collarbone were exposed. The dress reached my knees and I wore stockings beneath it covering my exposed legs. A simple crystal necklace hung from my neck reaching my breasts. It was one that Niklaus made for me, specifically for this ball. He urged me not to take it off even when I would be going to Lorenzo and Giovani, I didn’t que
Niklaus:“It is impossible that this king doesn’t have a weakness” I snapped at Ian making Kiara jump at my sudden loud tone. I knew that she didn’t like yelling, but this man was getting on my nerves. We have been trying to find something to kill him with, anything to reverse the spell. But nothing was working.“He is your twin Niklaus” Ian reasoned and I glared at him. Kiara took my hand in hers and intertwined our fingers seeing how tense I was.“Screw the bloody day that I was born with that thing called a man” I said angrily.“Why not try to find the witch who put the spell on him in the first place?” Kiara asked slowly.“Tried that Queen Kiara, the woman has been killed a long time ago. Verone feared her trying to break the spell. Therefore, he killed her long before she tried anything” Ian said answering Kiara.“But why would a witch make a spell on a man to
