Derek’s POV

“Come now Derek, we all need to talk. We will stay here in the house, but not in here. Gary will stay with her and make sure nothing happens. She shouldn’t be able to get out of the cage.” He sighed as he left the room, waiting for the rest of us to follow. I didn’t want to leave her, but I knew I had to because I needed to know what the hell was going on here. Asher went to the kitchen.

“Coffee anyone?” He asked.

“Sure, we will all have one.” I said back to him. Sitting down on the stool at the island bench, the others copied what I did.

“So, your mate has been poisoned with a rare concoction that Roxy has only ever heard of it once. But this is where it gets really complicated now.” Asher said as he paused, taking a sip of his coffee. I couldn’t move. I needed to know what we had to do.

“Roxy is very talented in lets say potions. She is the best healer in the kingdom. I trust her with all the lives in the Kingdom. She smelt the poison. She doesn’t even know the name of i

    …POV “Asher, I will be back in a few hours with a visitor, Elder Alaric. He is one of the original vampires Asher he has offered to come and help. He needs to know which Elder gave up their blood to do this.” Roxy’s voice came through the phone. “Rox, if that’s what it takes to save her, then bring him, but remind him that he may not feed on any of our members unless they are willing.” “Noted King Asher. I dislike werewolf blood. Funny taste. I feed outside the city limits. I will be fine for a week. But from the sounds of it, your friend Sophia does not have that long. We are waiting for Elvenia to bring her blessing.” The vampire elder's voice came through the phone. His voice rang with authority. If he was on the originals, then he was thousands of years old at the very least. This was going to be interesting. Hopefully, we do not offend him in any way, I was thinking to myself. “King Asher, I can hear your thoughts and yes, from a distance away as well. Your mind is very clear.

  • The Lycan King's Broken Mate   Elder Alaric POV

    Elder Alaric This whole thing wasn’t adding up. Whoever had made the vampire-blood-enigma had something against this poor girl. The last time an Elder gave away their blood for this drug, we placed them in prison for a thousand years. For a vampire to be placed in a prison with no blood for a thousand years sends them crazy. Many of them would die, but only elders survived this. To give this poison to a Lycan/werewolf or any other creature is the worst law you could break. The punishment for doing so is death. “Elder Alaric, sorry, but Asher just sent me a text saying that Sophia is dying a lot sooner than we think. Derek is dying as well.” She sighed. I had come across Roxy before in my travels. She intrigues me. Such a calming soul. She will do anything to help someone. That is why she has travelled and learnt about herbs and how they can heal. This girl is smart. She has huge potential. “OK Roxy, how about you shift and I will run. It will be a lot quicker, my child. Elvenia is

    King Asher’s POVWe were a mess inside. Derek was on a bed in the lounge room because there was no other room in the house that we would be able to fit another bed and all the equipment that we needed. “Derek is here knocked out, but Sophia is in the room upstairs. She is still knocked out. Well, we can’t be sure, but she is acting as if she is.” I sighed. I needed this headache over and done with.“I will go and get the girl. The rest of you need to clear the room out and help Roxy get the equipment we need. You have ten minutes.” Alaric ordered each of us with the tasks that he needed us to do.“Are you sure you can get her, Alaric? We covered her in silver?” I asked him, afraid that he would get hurt. “Thank you for your concern Asher, but I have built up let’s say a little tolerance to silver. I will be able to handle her. She won’t be able to hurt me so easily and I need to see whose blood is in her body.” He explained to me. Nodding my head, I would not disagree with him. We w

    “Your brother, fuck Alaric. Is it him behind this?” I asked him. How the fuck was it about his brother? This wasn’t good at all. What if he didn’t punish him?“Asher, calm down. I have not seen my brother since I punished him last time. But after I tasted Sophia’s blood, I can confirm that it was Nikolas. Now I do not know why the hell he has done this? Or who he is working with? But I can swear to you all on my life that I will find out the people behind this and kill them all.” He declared there was something in his voice that sent chills down my spine. I wouldn’t like to be Nikolas right now.“I don’t get why they have targeted Sophia? I mean, is there something special about her that we are missing?” I asked.“Um, well, there is something. But it really isn’t our place to tell anyone. But if you think it will help you, Alaric, then I will tell you and take the punishment later.” Lars spoke up.“What is it, son? We need to know what we are working against here.” Alaric told him.“S

  • The Lycan King's Broken Mate   Kill Them All

    Derek’s POVI was alive. I couldn’t understand how the fuck I was? That nightmare had seemed so real. Holding Sophia’s lifeless body over and over had woken me up from whatever dumb state I had been in. I don’t give a shit what she did, because I know it wasn’t her. She is my mate, and I had left her alone through all of this. I was the worst mate there was. “How much do they know, Alaric? Did any of my guys explain to you about Sophia?” I asked him through my thoughts. I had met Alaric a long time ago. When I was little, he had helped my father with a few rogue vampires that had been causing trouble for the Kingdom. So after that, every so often, he would come to check up to make sure nothing had been happening. Plus, having him there, his scent was all over the kingdom, scaring away the rogue vamps. “I told them everything. They had a right to know. Yes, Lars told us all, and he said he would take the punishment for telling his Queen's secret when it wasn’t his to tell. But like I

    Derek’s POV Jerek shifted in his beast form, taking a stance. Someone lunged at him, but he snapped the lycans neck in his mouth, almost ripping the beast’s head off. Asher was in a dance with his father, but neither was attacking the other. Zac and Lars had taken out a few lycans already. “Back up towards Asher. We need to make sure they don’t attack him from behind.” I ordered them through the link. Within a few seconds, we had our stance around Asher. There was no way anyone was going to get him. They outnumbered us. It seemed his father had a bigger following than Asher thought. “BACK DOWN FATHER, BEFORE YOUR THROAT IS RIPPED OUT.” Asher’s Lycan roared. “You think you can take me? Your out numbered. The others that took off are about to be caught.” His father's beast laughed. What the fuck was he talking about? “Derek, you need to leave me and save Sophia.” Asher linked me. “No way in hell. I trust Brooke and Alaric. She is safe with them. What is the plan here?” I linked him

    I could sense that Asher was staring at Derek, guessing that he was warning him. Asher truly was special. He was nothing like we all thought he was. The saying don’t judge a book by its cover came straight to mind. He was warm and caring. I know what he has had to sacrifice, and it was truly not fair. Every part of me was aching, but I was putting on a front. Everyone had been strong for me and now I needed to do the same for them. Looking down at Brooke's body, my heart missed a beat. My best friend had died trying to save my sorry ass. How the fuck was I meant to live with that? Her scream had awoken me from the cage that I had been caught in for nearly a year, a prisoner in my own body and mind.“Asher, if you need any help to clean this up or handling anything, please let me know. But I would like to take my best friend back home and plan her funeral with the Queens.” I said to him. Honestly, I didn’t want to leave him alone with what had just happened, but Brooke deserved to be b

    “Soph, we have heard some much about you. We will get to know each other soon, but I would really like to get my mate home. From the looks of it, they are all in shock. Do you mind if I pop over tonight?” Lar’s mate said to me, I could feel the hurt she was holding back trying to be strong for her mate. That was something that we were all doing at the moment.“Of course, our door is always open for you.” I said to them as they wrapped their arms around their mates, pulling them away to take them home. Which left Tim taking Brooke’s body away. Derek stood there watching as his friend's body was being taken away. Before I could stop him, he shifted, giving Jerek full control.“Jerek stop.” I begged him, but it was too late. He had Tim by the throat, growling at him like he was about to rip his throat out.“Sophia, it's ok. Don’t move or say anything. He will calm down, just give him a second.” Tim’s voice said in my head. Doing exactly what Tim told me to do, I didn’t move.“Where are yo

    The darkness had consumed me, but I felt a hand grab mine, causing my eyes to open. I had been to this place before, but I couldn’t remember how. Looking at the hand touching mine, I saw her for how she really was, a goddess truly touched by the moon.“Do you remember how you got here, my sweet Sophia?” Her voice rung regal.“I am having some trouble, Selene. It seems that my mind is trying to stop me from remembering.” I was confused as to why. She stopped in front of me, still holding my hand, her other hand touching my cheek.“Will you allow me to show you?” She asked me. Nodding my head yes, I knew there were people waiting for me somewhere. Light shone from her hand and every memory that I ever had from when I was a baby right till my death flashed before my eyes. I saw all the love, all the hate. I gasped as the last memory stopped.“Will they be ok Selene?” I asked her.“Sophia, my child, would you like me to show you the future they have, or would you like to stand over all my

    Why did he always assume that it was me? No matter what I did, he always thought it was me and I was tired of it. Here I was, accepting my fate to die so that they could live. Asher felt the pain he had just caused me. He was about to say something when I stopped him.“How dare you assume it was me? You always do this to me, Derek. I am sick of it. You ridicule me even though I accepted my fate so that you could live. I Sophia reject you, Derek, as my fated mate.” I said, and the bond snapped from me. The warriors gasped behind me.“You want to know where my mate is? I don’t know because I just rejected him. Even in death, he still chooses to believe the worst in me. As for my mate, you already know, Asher.” I told Zakari it wiped the grin off his face.“But you can’t have them both as your mates? It’s not meant to work like that.” He scolded me. The mate bond with Derek was broken by my side, but it wasn’t for him. That’s why I hadn’t said the rejection correctly, because I didn’t ne

    Jarrod’s wolf was killing him slowly. His paw was on his head so that he couldn’t shift. Angus wasn’t even squirming. It was like he was welcoming death.“DO IT JUST KILL ME.” He screamed at us. He really wanted to die, but why should he? After all the pain he had caused me and countless others, death was the easy way out.“Jarrod, stop, don’t kill him. That would be doing him a favour. Chain him in silver.” Jarrod’s wolf cocked his head sideways. Asher disappeared and was back a few seconds later. Angus was now chained in silver and chained to the tree. Jarrod had shifted back.“What the fuck Sophia.” He said, coming straight at me. Asher stepped him in front of me and Jarrod stopped where he was.“If you touch her, Jarrod, I will rip you to pieces.” Asher’s voice was calm, and that’s what the scariest thing was.“I wasn’t going to touch her Asher, relax, but I want to know why she won’t let us kill him?” He questioned.“He wants to die Jarrod, we would be doing him a favour. See, we

    Derek was going to be back in a few minutes. I could feel his aura getting closer through the mate bond.“As much as I want to stay here in your arms forever, we have to clean up. Derek will be back in a few minutes.” I whispered into his ear. Luckily, I wasn’t going to be alive long enough to worry about upsetting both of my mates. After we had a shower, which turned out to be a little longer than we thought because we couldn’t keep our hands off each other, we went downstairs. Derek walked through the door, instantly coming to the both of us and pulling us into a hug.“I am glad that the both of you were able to have that time together, but now I must talk nothing but seriousness.” He was hiding something in his voice that I couldn’t decipher what it was. He moved away, looking at the both of us. “Marcus and I have been talking, and we have come up with a plan. I am sorry, but I must leave both of you. I can’t stay here and watch you die, Sophia. It is selfish of me I know but on

    Asher’s POV“The cost of this is your life, isn’t it?” I was choking on the words as I tried to get them out. “You both know this has to happen. I don’t know when it is going to happen, but I know it will be soon. It is the only way to keep our babies alive.” She told me her voice was not her own, she sounded other worldly. I knew this was coming, but I didn’t expect it to be so soon. I needed time. I could fix this. My heart was being ripped from my chest, falling to my knees. I was struggling to breathe. Her touch on my shoulder warmed my body, but it still didn’t take away the fact that she was going sooner than we thought. I had only just got her.“There is a cabin in the woods on the other side of the kingdom. You both should go and spend the night together there, please. I beg the both of you. We all need this. Sophia, baby, I love you, but you need to love Asher as well. Asher, you need her. Spend the night with her, make it worth it.” Derek said. He had sat down on the other

    Asher’s POVKnowing what Derek was asking me to do was taking me away from our plans to stop this. But I couldn’t bring myself to leave. Sophia had suffered some much pain in her life times. And I couldn’t be the cause of more pain to her.“We need to stay with our mates and babies, Asher. If our mate has to die and all we can do is to be there for her, spending the time that she has left to make her happy, then that is what we will do.” Ivar ordered me.“I know, but the pain is too much, Ivar. How are we meant to keep going with knowing what is going to happen? And we know that Derek will do whatever he can to die as well after she does. I can feel it Ivar, he is not going to stay here on this earth if she isn’t here. This is why I am scared to finish forming the mate bond with her. We can’t afford to do that. We have to be the strong ones here for the sake of the twins. They are going to need us. We are their family.” Ivar was right, he always was, but I couldn’t help but feel I was

    Derek’s POVWhen Asher told me to get Tim because the babies needed to get out, I don’t think I have ever moved faster in my life. Within minutes, we were back in my office carrying all the equipment that Tim required. She was in pain. I could feel it, but again she was blocking it through the mate bond, trying to save us from pain.“Soph, baby, let the pain through. We can help you take it.” I tried to explain to her, but she screamed, the pain in her voice causing me to fall to my knees. She was going to die and I wouldn’t be far behind her. The babies would have Asher. I just can’t be in a world which she isn’t part of. Jerek had heard Soph and Bria talking about what has happened in their other lives and there is no way that I was going to let her go through this shit by herself. We had to keep it to ourselves because I know she would make us swear to stay with the kids, but I wouldn’t leave her again.Asher backed away to let me in to take her hand. He had every right to be here

    Sophias POV“You already know about this, don’t you?” There was no point beating around the bush.“Know about what, child?” He looked at me, confused.“He doesn’t know Soph, I am the only one that does. Although I suspect that Asher’s beast knows about it, but he hasn’t told Asher yet.” Bria confirmed with me.“Sorry Alaric, seems you don’t know, but I think you need to know because I need you to look out for my babies.” My voice sounded firm even to me. My strength was building, and I had a feeling that my babies were going to be here soon, so I needed to start putting plans into place.“What are you talking about, Sophia? Something is changing in you. I can sense it. What is happening?” He sounded concerned, which in all honesty he should be, because I had just accepted my fate that I have to die.“Alaric, I have to die.” I stated to him.“No, you don’t. We are putting plans in place so that nothing will happen to you.” “No, Alaric, that is not what I mean. My fate has been set, a

    Sophia's POV“Soph, did you just feel that?” Bria was on high alert.“I did, but what was it?” I asked her.“Someone wants to hurt us, but they need us alive. We need to always be at arm’s length to these guys, just like Asher told us.” She was right. There was no way that we were going to be out of their sight. Automatically placing my hands on my stomach, I felt one of my baby's move towards my hand. “They love us all so much already Soph, but they are growing at a rate of three times quicker than a normal pup would. I would honestly guess we have less than a month before they will be here, so we must do everything they tell us tonight.” Bria commanded me this time. The way she was worried had me worrying, too. Both Derek and Asher were watching me with concerned looks on their faces.“Soph, what is it?” Derek asked me. He really was in tune with us ever since he had woken up from the despair that he had been in.“Let’s just say it is a feeling, but someone wants to hurt me, but th
