Ronan’s POVIturned to Miles, who immediately stood at attention, ready for anything; hiseyes bled with the fury I was sure mirrored in mine. I could barely controlmyself. My heart beat loud and fast as I tried to think about where my matecould be.Fuck!“Gatherall the guards and meet me at the throne room right this instant.” I snarled athim and did not wait to hear him communicate telepathically with the otherguards as I stormed into the throne room. In the next second, Miles stalked inbehind me, and the room was filled with guards from the palace.Ilooked every one of them in the eyes, watching how they shivered and loweredtheir heads in respect and fear of me. I knew I should do something about theAlpha Suppression that I had let out, but I could not bring myself to do it atthat moment.In alow and dangerous tone, I informed them that Zira, who is my companion and willsoon become your queen, had been abducted from the palace. “You will doeverything to find her and br
Zira’s POVPainlanced through my weak body over and over again, my bones were turning to mush,and I could feel it; I could feel it.Oh,goddess! Was I dying? I did not want to die! Not when I had just met my mate orwhen things could improve for me.I beganto cry, or at least that’s what it felt like, as I was unsure what exactly Iwas doing.Please!I begged the moon goddess. I could not die now. I feltmy body soak in blood, and I had already written myself a goner when I heard aroaring sound somewhere really far away. For a moment, I thought I had pickedout my name in that inhuman roar.Wasthat the reaper? Had he come to take me to heaven or hell? Wherever?Butinstead of fear, I felt relief wash over me unconsciously. It was certainly notthe reaper then. Suddenly,I noticed the smoke that poisoned my wolf, and my lungs stopped, and in thenext second, the chains that were tightly bound around my wrists, causing greatdiscomfort and pain, were also removed. Then I was being
ZIRA’s POVI hearda whimper somewhere around me, and I was not sure if it was Blue or me.As soonas Ronan’s lips slanted across mine, I lost all my senses, and without thinkingtwice or thinking at all, I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled himcloser, kissing him back.Hiskisses were urgent and desperate, and they made me so hot all over; they mademe want him all the more.Ronangrowled as his hands came up, one wrapped in my hair, holding him close to me,and his other hand held my neck still in a very hot and possessive hold.Iwhimpered once again; this time, it was all me, pressing my hurting breast intothe firmness of his body with my core molten and wet.Hissoft, warm lips caressed mine as he pulled me closer, earning me a small gasp.Using that opportunity, Ronan slipped his tongue to stroke mine, and I almostdied of shock as a wave of sinful butterflies fluttered around my stomach andheart. My palm closed on his chest, feeling the soft but very frantic thud ofh
Zira’s POV“I wantyou so much that now I can not live without you, Zira.” He told me, and Ibelieved him because I knew it was true; there was no way he would be able to lieto me like that; I felt it in me as surely as it showed in his eyes. “Do youunderstand me, Zira?”Reliefwashed over me, and I smiled at him; I nodded, unable to talk at that moment.Our mate bond was complete, and I was so happy.Hisarms relaxed a bit from his chokehold, but he did not let me go; he pressed adeep kiss to my lips, sucking at my tongue again before pulling back to look atme. “What made you think I would not want you?” he asked like it was the mostincredulous thing on earth.Heleaned in to kiss me again, and as if he could not help it, he pushed hisrock-hard pelvis against me, grinding slowly.My coreheated up again, and I bit down hard on my lips as pleasure washed over me.“Hmm?”He asked again, urging me to answer him as he nipped at my lower lips.“Y…youlooked...” I started fumbling aro
Zira’s POVMy bodythrummed with a satisfied hum. I ached all over, but it was the sweetest ofaches.“Ohh…”I groaned, finally rousing out of the sleep that I had fallen into hours ago,exhausted from all the ‘hard, hard work’ that Ronan had put me through. All hisregal and elegant image collapsed last night when he had made us go round afterround and was still not satisfied.A smilestretched at my lips as the memory came back.Mated?!I couldn’t help but burst into laughter.We weremated, finally, and it had happened in the sweetest ways; it consumedeverything that was me. My fingers curled as my hands stretched to find theowner of the scent that filled my nose, the steady beat of his heart told methat he was somewhere near me.It wasalmost overwhelming to feel Ronan so intimately inside me, in my heart, in myhead, everywhere.I feltcomplete, and it scared me so much, even as it made me glee with childishhappiness.Myfingers met with rock-hard abs, and my smile widened; I
Zira’s POVA fewhours later, I kept on dozing and waking when Miles finally stopped hisinsistent knocking on our door, and Ronan stopped having the strength to tellhim to fuck off.Currently,both of them are seated in the room, with Miles holding files, rolls of papers,and scrolls while facing the king, who is wearing only a duvet wrapped aroundhis toned body.Ronansat by the edge of the bed, his left hand massaging my feet under the bedabsentmindedly while he listened to the court matters that could not wait.For themillionth time, he glared at Miles, “you just had to bring court matters intomy fucking room.” Milesbowed in apology, but his lips stretched into a smirk. “I am sorry, my lord, itjust could not wait.”WhenMiles had been about to enter some hours ago, even though I was tired, I hadoffered to get up and find something to wear, maybe give them some privacy, butRonan had insisted that I didn’t need to leave the bed.Instead,he had tucked the bed sheets so high
Zira’s POVExcitementcoursed through my veins as I ran down the palace hallways, my gown lifted tomy ankle to make running easier.“YourHighness, you have to be careful!” a very worried Laura called out behind me asshe ran after me. Of course,I ignored her with a chuckle as I kept going down the stairs; the maids andpalace workers took one look at me and quickly moved away from my path.Later,I told myself I would berate myself and worry about why the queen-to-be ofEliza was running around the palace halls without any poise or elegance.Later.Butnow, I had to run.Afterthree whole days in bed, Ronan finally agreed to leave and face court matters,leaving me with enough free time to wander around the castle as the wholepalace prepared for the official coronation and our mating ceremony.Thefirst day when I had been idle and had gone to see the preparations going onfor the ceremony, It didn’t take me long to figure out that as the king’sprospective queen, I was forbidden
Zira’s POV“It’sgoing to get even more stressful,” Laura told Sandra as she complained for thethird time today. “What?Is this what being queen is like?” Ichuckled and then paused in my steps so that the distance between us would bereduced.“It’snot that bad; Laura is just teasing you,” that was a lie. My few days in thepalace were all I needed to know: managing Eliza was a heavy responsibility. On somenights, after Ronan felt I was fast asleep, he would stay up working on severaldocuments and things that were going on. He alsohad to make sure enough income was coming in from the human countries in ourcontinent. It was a lot of work, and I couldn’t wait to help him handle some ofthe things in the capital and the palace itself. But fornow, I had to endure the long walks needed to get everything for my Royalwedding ready. Sometimesit still felt like I was in some dream and that someone was going to pinch meawake very soon, and I’ll be back to enduring watching Killia
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
