Zira’s POV “Moving quarters?” “Hmm, it’s something we can’t avoid forever. Let’s say we would stay here till the Charity Ball is over. In the meantime, we would have Martha build a protective spell in the King’s quarters. I already had them renovate it back then,” Although I was a little unwilling, what he said made sense, and I found myself nodding in agreement. “Just let me know when it’s time, I would spend three days there and make sure that Zira is safe when she is in there.” “Can you check through the quarters later to be sure he didn’t cast a spell in any area?” I watched as the both of them talked, and I couldn’t help but get frightened about Keith. The whole time, I had thought that he was the one brother that we could work with. But now, it was starting to seem like he was the worst of them. A part of me couldn’t help but wonder what would have happened if my Blue’s ability hadn’t awakened at that moment. “Hehe, my abilities have never been asleep, I only c
Ronan’s POV “Master,” Laura said as she curtsied with a waist-bending bow. “What’s the matter?” Even though she used to work for me and I trained her, since she started working with Zira, this was the first time she would come to me personally. With the recent developments around, I couldn’t help but suspect that something had happened that needed my attention. “There’s no proper way to say this, but I suspect that Prince Keith has some obsession or interest in the Queen.” My brows arched with surprise. “What made you say that?” “The last time he came here with Lady Ella, the most significant thing I noticed was Lady Ella’s scent. It was a lot similar to my Lady’s scent.” “It’s possible that you didn’t pick on it but the Queen’s scent is very unique and special. I had once asked her, and she told me it was something she made herself.” “Also, I could tell from Lady Ella’s dressing and speech that she was trying too hard to be like my Queen, so I sent some of the lower-rank
Zira’s POV The days passed swiftly and soon, it was time for the Socialite Charity Ball. Unlike every other ball that had been held in Eliza. This was starting from early in the morning, in fact, we had made it start from as early as seven in the morning. I had three outfits planned for the day and the first one was a matching pair with Ronan. The knee-length white dress fell like waves around me. However, every wave of it was lined with gold making it a mix of the two colours. It also had golden flowers embroidered on it. It was beautiful and regal in every way. “You look like an empress from ancient times,” Laura commented with bright eyes. Like all the girls, they were all dressed delicately and beautifully. I had given them day offs and they had instead insisted on getting invitations to the ball. I knew they were doing it so they could assist me and like everyone that worked in the palace, they were going to have two days off after the ball. “King Ronan is outside
Zira’s POV It was hard to not laugh after hearing Ronan’s words. But if anything, they had been enough to make him keep quiet. After the gathering of the donations was done, as planned, the first banquet started. The men enjoyed themselves, eating and chatting merrily while the ladies acted restrained and courteous. “My Lady, gossip is spreading around about Lady Ella. The dress she has on today is the same dress that you had worn to the first banquet you held.” Julia’s voice rang out in my ears and I looked down in her direction. Although they were palace ladies, as none of them had been picked by their husbands as the main woman in the house, all of the princes including Antoine didn’t have any woman beside them. However, beneath each prince, there were seats placed there for their women. Lady Ella was three levels beneath me and I couldn’t see her dress well but even then, from the back, I could tell that it was the same dress I had worn back then. “She doesn’t have hal
Zira’s POV Raphael and everyone from the team had to be described as excellent. When we got to the top floor, everyone was already seated in their allocated seats. “Sister-in-law, indeed, no lady can come close to your excellence,” Keith praised with a smile that made shivers rush through my spine. “You are exaggerating, Prince Keith,” Liliana, a lady who worked directly with Raphael, was in charge of this floor and stepped into the centre. “If you already noticed, this time around, we have done a seating arrangement that is not only based on title and position but also your marital status,” she started, and many people looked around. Unlike the down floor, two long tables were facing each other. One was for married people, while the other was for single people. Following my instructions, Keith, Antoine and Lucan were all arranged with the unmarried people. Lady Ella was the first to speak up, “Then you must have made a mistake. Not only is Prince Keith, not a bachelor
Zira’s POV “As long as he would have you.” As I added this Laura giggled beside me while Ronan’s face had a similar smirk. “The first mistake you made was daring to offend my mate and forcing her hand. Your second mistake is wanting to be my woman.” “Do you think a woman like you has the qualifications to lay in my bed?” Ronan’s voice was cold and I could feel how tightly he was holding himself back through the mate bond. “Scram!” Four guards rushed forward and dragged her out of the place. “If you don’t know before, it’s only good that you know now. In this life, this King would have only one woman.” Not just the crowd, but even Liliana was unable to pull herself from the oppressive air that Ronan was giving off. Unable to stand it anymore, I moved my hand from his thigh upwards. Even while touching him, I still teased unsung the mind link, “I’m not offended, if you don’t calm down, the people here are going to die from not being able to breathe.” Ronan gave me a sid
Zira’s POV Even after I was dressed in the light blue sparkling dress, I could still feel my pussy throbbing from the intense pounding it had just gotten from Ronan. As we walked into the hall, I kept feeling like someone or maybe everyone might have heard my scream as I orgasmed some minute ago. Unlike me, Ronan is composed and just looking ahead as we walk back to our throne seats. Raphael and Liliana with the help of four guards walk to the centre with three tables that are covered in linen. “We hope that everyone has enjoyed themselves so far,” “The rules for the auction are simple. You aren’t allowed to auction for your own donation. Also, the highest bidder takes the item home.” Together with the finance team, every product had been sent for value assessment so that we wouldn’t sell them at a loss or too high a value. Surprisingly, some people had even donated items that had been around for thousands of years and passed from their families. My family didn’t have an
Zira’s POV I wasn’t surprised that the Charity Ball became the highlight of every conversation for the next few days. If anything, I was glad at how successful it had been. But there was no way I had been prepared for the additional work it had brought my way. I had to deal with the finance aspects and handing over the funds to the right department. Also, I had to keep my eyes on how things were going in the northern cities while Ronan was preparing for our trip to the other kingdom. I was a little excited about seeing what the other people like us looked like but I was also worried about us being the youngest there. “You have four more meetings arranged for today,” Julia informed me as she placed her tablet behind her. “Four meetings? I just finished two meetings!” “There’s a meeting with Lady Irene, there’s one with Lady Ella, there’s a meeting with the welfare team for the North and finally, you have a snack break with Lady Martha.” “Why do I have a meeting with La
RONAN’s POV"Zira ...I have said this before but I am so madly in love with you that sometimes, I just don't know what to do at all. I don't want to lose you. I want...I want to spend the rest of my life with you!" I told her. Zira smiled. She teared up a little but then laughed and shook her head. "I. I love you too, Ronan, more than you can ever imagine. I love you so much."My heart swelled. I had never felt this happy in my entire life. "You've just made me the happiest man in this life."Zira laughed, then leaned closer to me, staring at me straight in the eye and then at my lips. "Do you want a kid?" She asked with a sensual whisper.I smiled, but I was stunned by her words. "What?""A boy or a girl?" Zira whispered, biting down her lower lips as I tightened my grip on her waist."Both?" I asked, raising a brow."You sure?" Zira asked."Four?" I asked with wide eyes, and Zira burst into laughter."Are you being serious right now?" She asked."Well, you asked first, so yes," I
RONAN’s POVI ignored him and turned to Keith. "As for you, Keith, you are banished to Alva. You are never to leave there for the rest of your life, and if you do, I will kill you!". I said to Keith. Keith sneered at me. "Don't think that you won because you are the strongest Ronan! You only won because you hated our father and didn't let him affect your life!"Keith sneered at me."Yes! It's only because you stayed away from him! Otherwise, you would have ended up like this! You are no different from us!" Lucan told me. I shook my head at their reasoning. "You are right. I hated our father. And wanted nothing to do with him. But you see, I am not here just because I stayed away from me. I am here because I strived hard not to be like him. I hated that man and wanted nothing to do with him, and I made sure to make changes in my life. The rest of you just decided to take the wrong path! You deserve this!" I said.....It took me the entire day to deal with all of the remaining issues
RONAN’s POVI walked over to Miles, preparing to fight with him. I hated it when he said that I was not fit to be the Alpha and I wanted to prove to him and everyone else that it was a lie. "You don't have to do this, Ronan! He is just trying to rile you up on purpose! Don't fall for his trap! Miles already lost, but he doesn't want to admit that he has lost!" Zira called out to me. I knew that this could be a trap, but I am past the stage of caring at this point. I need to put him in his place. It was a long and hard fight between the both of us, and at some point, I thought that I was going to lose, but then I managed to knock Miles out. He tried to get him, but I pinned him to the ground, breaking one of his legs and then ending the fight with me as the winner. Miles glared hatefully at me, probably because he knew that he had lost. I am now the winner, and there is just nothing that he can do about that. I leaned in closer to him and whispered, "Do you now believe that I am
ZIRA’s POVMiles glared at Ronan, and I could tell that he was shocked and upset to see that Ronan was back. I was feeling a whole lot of emotions watching Ronan. I wanted to jump into his arms and hug him, I wanted to yell to everyone that doubted me that I wasn't wrong. I said that he was alive, and he really did come back alive. But I did not have the time to do any of this. Right now, there's a war in front of us. A war that we were starting to lose.A guard tried to attack me from behind, but I immediately turned and kicked him away from me. There were tears in my eyes as I fought out with the guard. I was happy and sad at the same time, and the tears just kept flowing. "Ronan, you should have just died! Everything was going perfectly fine! We had a good thing going on! Why did you have to come back?!" Miles yelled at Ronan. Ronan smirked as he approached him. "A good thing? Miles, you are just a thief who wants what doesn't belong to you. You were never supposed to sit on th
ZIRA’s POVMartha shook her head. "I didn't see it myself because I was too scared of going in," she said. "I think that we should give it a try, Kyle. We can never know," Peter said. Kyle sighed. "Fine. We are going to check. I just hope that it's there" Kyle said and the both of them left together."I just hope that they find it. We will be able to defeat Miles then," I said. Mom glared at me. "Can't you just leave this alone? Do you have to go this far?" She asked me. I nodded my head. "I have to go this far, Mom. I just can't ignore it. I can't ignore what he's done! He's controlling the Entire Kingdom! Everything in this Kingdom will be destroyed in just two years if we don't stop Miles now!" I said. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself. "Mom, I trust that Kyle and Peter are going to find the spell. The spell is going to be broken soon, and there's going to be a war. I am not going to walk away from it. I just need to know if the both of you are going to help me!" I
ZIRA’s POVA spell that made it impossible for everyone to either shift or use their abilities! I laughed to myself. If Miles thought that this was going to stop me, then he had better think again. The good thing was, I knew this spell, and I knew how to break it. But first, I have to find my cousins and tell them about it. They need to know what is going on! .....I entered Maria's room and saw my mom pacing around the room. She glared at me as soon as I walked in. "I almost thought that you weren't going to come back! Why can't you just listen to me? No matter what I tell you, you have already told yourself that you're not going to listen no matter what! What is wrong with you?" She asked me. I wasn't in the mood to listen to her scoldings. "Do you know where Kyle and Peter are right now? I need to tell them something!" I said. I haven't seen him since they said they were going to take care of Antoine on their own. "Are you even listening to me? Miles could find you, and then
ZIRA’s POV"I am tired of falling about this Maria. I am not going to leave, and that's it!" I said. I was upset listening to her talk, so I walked out of the room. "Where do you think you're going, Zira? What did I tell you about staying away from Miles? Don't you listen to anything that I say at all?" She asked me. I pretended not to hear anything that she said and walked out. I know that I will have to see Miles and confront him myself at some point. I just can't keep running away from it. I have to face it. .....I was standing facing the palace's garden when I felt someone walking up to me. My heart was beating fast against my chest. I already knew who it was without turning back. It was as if I was waiting for this moment. "Who are you?" He asked. I turned to face Miles with a big smile on my face. "Are you surprised to see me?" I asked him. If my mom or Maria could see me right now, they are going to say that I am looking for death, but I know that I just can't ignore
ZIRA’s POVI turned to face my mom and frowned. No matter what they tell me, I am not going to believe that Ronan is dead. I know that he's not dead because I can still feel the mate bond between us. If I could not feel the pull, then I'd accept that he is indeed dead, but as for now, I can still feel as if he's alive, so there's no way that I am going to accept what they are telling me. "Are you even listening to me right now?! Zira! You have to leave! Miles is the one in charge now! He's not going to let you leave if he finds out that you are still alive! Are you sure that you want to take that chance?" My mother asked me. "Mom, I already told you. I am not going to leave. I have to at least wait for the full moon festival," I said. "Why do you have to wait for the full moon festival....don't tell me that you think he is still alive?! Zira! You need to stop being delusional! He's no longer alive! They killed him! Ronan is not coming back! I know that this is a lot for you to tak
ZIRA’s POVWe walked back into the city to realise that everything had changed. Antoine and his guards were still in my cousin's custody. My mother and I decided to go back to the palace to find out what had happened while we were away. Immediately we entered the palace, we went to look for Martha. She huffed me immediately when she saw me. "Zira! I thought I had lost you! I thought that I would never see you again! Thank you so much for coming back! Thank you!" She said to me, I hugged her back because I was happy to see her. "I thought that Antoine had won, but my mother and cousins showed up. I am just happy to be back!" I said excitedly. "I am just happy that you came back! The Kingdom...the Kingdom is not what it was when Ronan was alive. Everything.... everything has changed!" Martha said. "What has changed? I could feel as if the Kingdom was in trouble when I walked in. Everything was just quiet!" I said. Martha nodded her head. "Yes.. that is because it has changed. M
