The King of Caspian Ramiro
Chapter 20 - Ramiro Penelope It was surreal how amazing yet utterly terrifying it was being so high up above the world. I felt invincible up here, and as Ophir glided through the sky effortlessly, I found myself getting lost in the world around us.The further we went, the fewer dragons we encountered until we were the only ones flying in the vast open sky. The sun shining brightly above us made Ophir's black scales glisten. He was a truly magnificent beast, probably the most breathtaking creature I had ever seen. But he was also the most terrifying creature I had ever had the pleasure of encountering. Still, despite his frightful appearance, I wasn't afraid of him. Instead, I felt a swift connection with him, one that made me feel highly protective of the giant beast that belonged to my mate. Ophir let out a low hum that reminded me of a cat's purr. The comparison had a smile spreading across my face. My stomach let out a rumble, a reminder that I had skipped breakfast this morni
Last Updated : 2022-12-04The King of Caspian Unexpected
Chapter 21 - Unexpected Garren By the time I had shown Penelope the rest of the village and got her settled into her room, the sun had started to set, and I knew that tomorrow would feel even shorter than it did today and that after tomorrow it would already be time for us to return to the castle and all the threats and problems that were waiting for us there. But even with the distraction of the people here and the problems back in Caspian, I still couldn't drown out the words Penelope had said to me when we first got here, right after I had basically told her I didn't want to go. The close contact with her seemed to make my mouth work faster than my mind and I knew that if I wasn't careful I would only make all of this harder on the both of us.The hurt that crossed her emerald eyes still made my chest feel tight and my skin itch with anger. Not anger towards her but towards the cruel hand that fate has dealt us. It was why I had found myself behind the bakery, cutting wood as th
Last Updated : 2022-12-07The King of Caspian Challenge
Chapter 22 - Challenge Penelope It felt as though the world around us faded into nothing as I stared into Garren's silver gaze. His eyes held me hostage as they swirled with a hint of the deepest violet, beckoning me closer. His words made my heart flutter no matter how much I wished they wouldn't, how I wished that his presence didn't consume me entirely whenever he was around. Yet, I couldn't deny the pull in my chest, the kind of pull that filled me with want and need every time he looked at me like this. Like he wanted to steal me away and never let me go again. But I knew it was too good to be true, even if my heart refused to believe it. A throat-clearing shattered the moment between Garren and me, bringing us both back to reality. My cheeks heated from embarrassment as I pushed myself out of his arms. I could see the reluctance in Garren's eyes before he released me. My body slid down his tone chest as my feet made contact with the solid ground. I turned to find all the you

Chapter 23 - Enough Garren The job of a King was to ensure that his people felt self and protected all while keeping order. It was a gruelling task, one I wouldn't wish upon my greatest enemy. The hours were long, and the days were tiresome. I didn't want to be back here sitting on my throne in front of my people so soon. Not when I had planned to have one more day of solitude with Penelope. But all of that was shattered the moment Zeke stepped through the portal and destroyed any shred of hope I had at having one last night lost in the possibility of what life with Penelope could be like. As I sat in front of my people and listened to their outrage and confusion about the rumours of my mate that had spread like wildfire throughout the capital. I knew then that a life like what we experienced in Ramiro, where everyone accepted Penelope so quickly, was impossible. Another reminder of why I had to find a way to get her to leave without breaking my promise of asking her to, or worse,
Last Updated : 2022-12-13The King of Caspian Persistence
Chapter 24 - PersistencePenelope A faint ringing somewhere in the distance threatened to pull me from my dreams. The dream where I was currently reliving the moment Garren's lips met mine, the world around us fading to nothing as fireworks ignited within my veins. It felt as if the world started and stopped with us. Garren tasted even better than I could have ever imagined, the sweet taste of peppermint and sugar brushing across my tongue as I tasted him. I swore I could still taste him on my tongue and that I could still feel the swelling of my lips after only a few moments of kissing him. Erasing the bitter, broken memory of that night in the alleyway and replacing it with the memory of the fire that burned deep within my chest at the mere thought of kissing him again. The ringing grew louder, shattering the dreaming world as I was forced to wake. I rolled over toward the edge of the bed, running my hands along my bedside table until my fingers brushed across the noisy culprit. I
Last Updated : 2022-12-17The King of Caspian Duty
Chapter 25 - DutyGarren Twice I had lost myself to the pull of the bond, and twice I hadn't cared what that meant for Penelope and me. Consequences be damned; now that I had a taste of Penelope, I wouldn't be able to stop. It was a dangerous game, the constant fight between my heart and my head, but it was one I was willing to play, knowing that time wasn't on our side either way.She was a siren with a call explicitly designed for me. The way she defied my orders and continued to push when I told her to stop drove me insane, but it also made me want to do other things to her that I hadn't wanted to do with any other female before. Penelope may be a werewolf, but she has the heart of a warrior and the spirit of a dragon. She was a walking target that filled my chest with both pride and worry. The stubborn bullheadedness was bound to get her into trouble, and it had. I was still fuming with rage, the loss of control driving me mad. After promising she wouldn't, Penelope had gone a
Last Updated : 2022-12-20The King of Caspian Haze
Chapter 26 - HazePenelope It was as if all rational thought left me whenever I was around Garren. Like my brain turned to mush, and the bond had taken over my ability to function. Though Kyra was still on guard about our mate, she didn't seem to fight the bond as much as she once had. And it seemed that Garren had fallen prey to the bond just as much as I had in the short time we had spent together. It was why my mask had slipped ever so slightly when Garren had informed me that his mother would be taking on training me every spare second I had left. It was a short lap of judgment that had me hoping that once my training was over for the day, maybe, just maybe, I could steal some time away with Garren, not to jump into a relationship but to give myself a chance to know the male who had been so willing to push me out to save me from his people all while denying himself the happiness he too deserved. In the short time I had been here, I had learned rather quickly that Garren would s
Last Updated : 2022-12-23The King of Caspian Impact
Chapter 27 - ImpactPenelope "Again," Mildred commanded. I raised my bow without complaint, notching another arrow and lining up my arms until I was in position. I stared at the target taking in the direction the gentle wind blew around the last of the dying leaves and the feel of the chilled air against my face. I took a deep breath in through my nose and out my mouth. With one final inhale, I held my breath, releasing my hold on the arrow as I slowly released the air from my lungs.The sharp whistle of the arrow whizzing by my ear was the only proof that I had given it enough power to hit my mark with a hard impact. An impact that would have been strong enough to pierce through an enemy's heart. My arrow cut through the air at full speed ending with an audible thud as it hit the bullseye. I didn't give myself time to admire the shot, raising another arrow and firing it into the next target and then the next, and the next. Each target was farther than the last, but my aim held tru

The King of Caspian Epilogue
Epilogue. *Two Weeks later*"You mean to tell me you learned to do this in six months? Six months!" Hilary panted, dropping the arrow for the sixth time. She leaned down, picking it up with a frustrated growl. I let out a chuckle shaking my head. "Yes, but I was just as terrible as you were in the start, and I only got better because I was forced to spend twelve hours a day training." Hilary scoffed, aiming her arrow at the closet target once again."Plus, you're a werewolf. Which, by the way, is fucking mind-blowing. I don't think I'll ever recover from your weird magical family heritage." Hilary continued."You'll get over it eventually." I teased.Hilary released her arrow, flopping on the ground halfway between her and the target. She tossed the bow on the ground, throwing up her hands. A few warriors who had decided to watch the spectacle unfold snickered, earning a glare from my fearless partner. "I give up. Can we do that sheering thing back to the castle? I think I'm over
The King of Caspian Love
Chapter 56 - Love Penelope The return to my room was a hazy dream. I barely remembered walking there, let alone getting myself cleaned up and into bed before passing out. But I had done all of that at some point, considering a soft knock at my door was now waking me up.I knew at least a couple of hours had passed by from the darkness of the sky above. Garren had reassured me that I would be left alone until it was time for me to get ready for our big debut as king and queen this evening. My family had surrounded me after the battle, pulling me in for hugs, ignoring the blood and dirt covering my entire body as they congratulated me and told me how proud they were. Though my mother did threaten my life if I ever entered something so dangerous ever again, my father and brothers both agreed. Balor, on the other hand, decided to give me a few critiques that earned him a scolding from his brother and sisters. My body wasn't as sore as it was after the battle, but exhaustion still clung
The King of Caspian Slayer of Monsters
Chapter 55 - Slayer of Monsters Garren The preparations for the battle were a strenuous six long month headache that involved endless amounts of planning, enduring countless meetings and trying to steal as many quiet moments with my mate as possible. But no amount of preparation or training could prepare me for what I was forced to witness eight now. Ophir was just beneath my skin, the urge to shift almost overwhelming me as I watched Penelope fight for her life.Everything was in her favour until Delmira shifted, then all hell broke loose, and Penelope went from having a chance to win the battle to being mere seconds away from it all ending. The spell I had made with Solace started to kick in, but I was afraid I was already too late. The pain in my leg and side slowly grew as I siphoned her injuries—enough to help her heal and fight but not enough to kill me. I could take any damage away from her except a strike to the heart or through the head. My magic healed me just as fast as
The King of Caspian Battle
Chapter 54 - BattlePenelope"Breath," Mildred whispered as we approached the ring where mine and Delmira's battle would take place. It was huge, made of stone like almost everything in Caspian. It reminded me of the gladiator arenas back in Roman times, except this one was three times as big to accommodate such gigantic shifters. I had never seen the arena before, apparently all by design to keep me from freaking out, or so Garren told me this morning before leaving to finish the rest of today's preparations. "I am." I ground out. Lira let out a breathy laugh but quickly stifled it as I glared at her. I was on edge, nervous about the outcome of this battle. The same questions circled my head again and again.Had I improved enough? Did I have enough time to train correctly? Was this all a fool's errand? "We have this, Penelope. When we were together, we're unstoppable." Kyra encouraged, trying her best to mask her nervousness too. I took another deep breath as we entered the long
The King of Caspian Closure
Chapter 53 - ClosurePenelope Home, that's what my pack territory should have felt like as I entered through the portal into the Bloodstone territory. Now though, the place where I had grown up, where I had trained and dreamed of helping grow one day, felt anything but that. Almost like it was a distant memory, one that was dulled compared to the memories I had clung to in my head for the last six months. I may have lived in Vancouver for the last four years, but even still, it had always been my place to come to when I needed an escape, to regroup my thoughts and rebuild my confidence for the road ahead. Now though, I felt like an outsider looking in, and the outcast feeling seemed more evident as I walked through the familiar streets searching for my parents and brother.Everyone seemed to stop what they were doing to stare at Garren and me, all casting wary glances in our direction, some even whispering not so quietly about who my mate was and what had happened between us. Gar
The King of Caspian Dragon Heart
Chapter 52 - Dragon HeartHunter Life was a gamble; that was what I had learned in my early youth. Unfortunately, the truth of that statement was made abundantly clear when the war started, and I was hit on both fronts regarding the loss of loved ones and comrades. First, the death of Garren's brother and then my parents, followed by many, many others. I shut down after the war and closed off everyone as much as possible. I was as unpredictable and mean as Falkoor and thought it safer this way.I believed shutting everyone out kept me in control of the demon within. Only trusting Falkoor when Garren was around to help command and keep him in line when I lost control. But it did the opposite. It put my friends and our people at risk of an outburst. So today was meant to change that. The last few months had pushed me to open up more. It forced me to let more people into my circle and ease the grip on my dragon.When Penelope arrived, I thought she wouldn't last more than a week in ou
The King of Caspian Risks
Chapter 51 - RisksPenelopeI stared at Opal, my eyes narrowing as I focused on her movement, from how her chest rose and fell to how her fingers twitched, looking for any tell that would give me a hint of her next attack. Except with the twins, it was never that easy; it was like staring at a wall and waiting for it to speak. Their years of training made it almost nearly impossible to predict or detect anything the sisters were going to do.Opal and Odessa were as trained as one could be, putting even the most trained warriors within the capital to shame. Opal's copper hair dancing in the wind was the only thing that moved as she stared us down. The constant state of unease when fighting her made Kyra anxious. "Steady," I warned Kyra, her presence just beneath my skin. "I know, they're just so-" unpredictable was what Kyra was just about to say when Opal struck. I twisted away from her sword just as Odessa attacked from behind. Two people at once. That was how far I had progressed
The King of Caspian Sacrifice
Chapter 50 - Sacrifice Garren One week, somehow, time seemed to slip by faster than I had ever experienced before. It got lost in the stolen moments with Penelope and in the long and strenuous days of dealing with the council when I wasn't watching her train. The snow had started to melt, the air becoming warmer as it delivered the promise of spring. And with it, a reminder of the battle that we had been training her for was fast approaching.Penelope didn't sleep in her room anymore; somewhere in the last few months, she had made my room her own. I couldn't say I didn't enjoy it; I honestly couldn't remember what it was like before she filled it with her scent and warming presence, and I didn't ever want to. I never realized how much I would love this, love her until I had her, and now I knew that I had to do everything within my power to ensure I got to keep her. It was why I was here now, the last place I wanted to be ever after five hundred years; I hadn't been able to look at
The King of Caspian Distractions
Chapter 49 - Distractions PenelopeIt was strange walking into a room full of humans, all of them none the wiser to the shifters that lived amongst them. I had no idea what this event was for, but I assumed it was for another one of Balor's clients. He was always selling himself, constantly marketing, working an angle to gain new clients and make more deals. Going all out to impress the richest of the rich, and tonight was no exception. An orchestra played on the stage; people danced on the dance floor. Tables littered the rest of the room, While people filled the seats, eating the tiny expensive hors d'oeuvres while discussing their next business ventures and big vacation. Staff walked around with trays of champagne and food. The three giant chandeliers above us twinkled against the crystal jewels as they hung effortlessly from the vaulted ceilings. Ribbon also hung from the ceiling; performers twirled and fell from the long silken ribbon as they entertained everyone who watched.
