I patted Aidinth on the back as he caught his breath. I said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked." He stopped and put his hand on my cheek, "My Princess, I have been waiting for you to ask me that. Nothing would make me happier. But next time you ask something like that, would you mind waiting until I don't have food in my mouth?" I laughed at him, "Of course. I didn't even notice you had taken a bite." He said, "After we get Kayda's trial out of the way, we will take a trip. You will need to be taught to fly. We also need to get my dad's permission to change you." I said, "Okay. No problem." When we finished our food, we all stood and walked around town a bit more. I noticed that there were already kids playing in the park that I had created. One mother yelled, "Thank you Princess!" I smiled and waved at her.
We went back to the car, and I just laid my head back and said, "I think that might have worn me out a little more than I expected." He smiled and said, "I thought it
Thank you for reading. If you liked this chapter, please leave a gem. I would also love to read your comments.
Aidinth and I started to stand up, but Aidinth said, "Dad, you never answered our original question." King Uther smiled and said, "Of course, the answer is yes." Queen Chumani said, "Yes to what?" King Uther said, "Chloe would like to be changed. Just like you did." I said, "You weren't always a dragon?" She laughed and said, "No. I was a Lycan before. That's why it has been so easy to accept you as princess, my dear." I smiled, "I had no idea." She said, "Let's take a walk." She and I walked with Trina and the girls behind us. I said, "Do you not want me to change?" She chuckled, "Oh heavens, no! That's not why we are walking! I would love for you to change. You just need to be aware of some things that will happen when you do." I laughed, "Okay. I would love this kind of talk. I feel like I'm flying blind; no pun intended." She laughed and said, "I understand. When I changed, it was forbidden for a wolf and a dragon to be mates. Uther and I kept it secret until he changed me. it w
He carried me to our room, and it's just as I remember it. I am totally exhausted, to be honest. I just didn't want to admit it out loud. I would like a shower, but I really am too tired for that. I get undressed and get in bed. Aidinth slips in beside me and I snuggle close to him. "Mmm," he says, "I have been missing being able to be this close to you to hold you." I kiss him sweetly and say, "I've missed you holding me like this. That hospital bed felt lonely. I love you, Aidinth." He smiled, "I love you too, Chloe, more than you could ever imagine." I nodded and was out like a light. It seemed like I had just closed my eyes when a bright light appeared before my eyes, "Hello, my child." I smiled, "Hello, Selene. So, you're the reason I was too tired to shower." She laughed, "Yes. I am. Your mate will be joining us in just a moment." Aidinth appeared next to me. He was looking around and I tapped his shoulder. He looked at me, smiled, and said, "This isn't a dream, is it?
After dinner, we sat in the sitting room with King Uther and Queen Chumani. We were looking at more of my visions, when I saw one that made me smile. I realized that I had been having visions of myself for years without even knowing it. It was my crowning ceremony. I don't know when I had this vision, but I can tell from the quality of the drawing that I was very young. It's a picture of King Uther, Queen Chumani at his side, crowning me, with Aidinth at my side. King Uther is placing the crown on my head. I look at the other people in the sketch, and I notice a child, smiling, in the front row. It's Kimber. Now I know she is going to be just fine, as long as she listens to her doctors. King Uther shows another one to me. It's a place I do not know, with dragons flying all over the place as something floods the ground below. I look closer, and it looks like a volcano is erupting. I said, "I know this isn't here. We do not have palm trees. Could it be Florida or Hawaii?" He s
I wake up the next morning with a prominent ache between my thighs. We spent half the night tangled up in each other making love in several different ways. At times it was hot, at times it was gentle, there were other times it was rough. I lost count of how many times we made love and I definitely lost count of how many times he sent me over the edge. I tried to get up, but Aidinth held me tighter. I look at the clock and it is six-thirty. I would really like to be at the hospital by eight am, so I try to lift his arm off me, when I hear, "Trying to get away from me so early, sweet mate?" I laugh and say, "I'm trying to get to the bathroom so that I can take a shower. I would really like to be at the hospital between eight and eight-thirty. She is supposed to go back for surgery at nine." He said, "Okay. I will let you up on one condition." I eye him suspiciously, "What's that?" He said, "You have to let me take a shower with you." I said, "Have I said no to that offer yet?" He laug
Aidinth took the doll to the shop owner and asked if this was done intentionally. She said that she had a bunch made to celebrate the new Princess. She started to apologize, but Aidinth said, "Do not apologize for this. They're amazing. Chloe, these would be a likeness of you, in doll form, that the little girls in our family can have and hold for generations. I picked one up, signed it, and gave it to the shop owner. I said, "You're welcome to keep it or sell it. It's fine with me, either way." She hugged me and said, "I will keep it. Thank you, Princess." Aidinth bought five of them, while I added an extra one for Kimber. I shook my head at him and said, "What are you going to do with these?" He said, "I'm holding on to them until our children and grandchildren are born." I just laughed at him and said, "Okay, so what do you want to do for lunch?" He said, "How about we go to the town cafe?" I said, "There's a cafe here?" He said, "Yeah, and it's pretty good." I said, "Let's go."
When I got off the phone with King Uther, I asked for her name, the mother's name and the little boy's name. I wanted to be able to tell her that everything is going to be okay. I said, "Hey! Queen Eden! Can you help me please?" I asked the little girl to come here for a moment and Queen Eden appeared. The little girl, Tanis, and her mother, Hydra, were in shock when they saw an angel. I picked up Tanis, and said, "Queen Eden, I would like you to meet Tanis and her mother, Hydra. Ladies, this is Eden, Queen of the Angels." Tanis said, "Do you know my cousin, Ladon?" Queen Eden smiled, "I do know him. He just arrived in my kingdom two days ago. Is his mother here?" Hydra said, "She will be here in a second." Just then a woman with a tear-stained face walked up to us. She saw Queen Eden and fell at her feet. "I am so sorry!" Queen Eden helped her stand and said, "Belinda, you have nothing to be sorry for. Ladon knows he did the wrong thing by trying to fly without having his d
When we got the hospital, Aidinth and I walked into Kimber's room, and she was sitting up and smiling. I said, "There she is! How are you feeling, sweetheart?" She says, "I'm feeling okay. I might get to go home tomorrow, but I won't get to go to back to school for a week." I said, "Well, at least you're going to get to be home, and eat soup and lay around and watch TV all day." She smiled, "Yeah. I kinda wish I had a TV in my room." I said, "When you're not feeling good, your own bed is the comfiest place there is, isn't it"? She smiled, "Or in my daddy's arms." I smiled, "You are correct on that one. I lost my daddy when I was your age, but I still remember feeling so safe when he hugged me or held me." She smiled and nodded. "Prince Aidinth and I have something for you," I continued, "First, we have this." I gave her a gift bag, and she pulled out the Princess doll. She hugged it tightly and said, "She is beautiful, and her dress is my favorite color!" I said, "I knew this doll w
I covered my mouth with my hand and started crying. Aidinth rubbed my back and pulled me close. Tanis handed a tissue to me and said, "I knew you would cwy, becauthe you love uth all. Tho, I had a tithue weady fo you." I laughed through my tears and lifted her to my lap, "You are the best medicine for a sad moment. Do you know that?" Tanis nodded, "When my mommy is thad, she always wants me on her wap." I laugh, "You are such a treasure. Do you know if you're an Omega? I don't mean what people call the lowest of the low, either. I real Omega has the power to calm people." Her mother nodded her head. I said, "I see. Well, Tanis, it looks like you and I will be getting together a lot when you get older. We need to make sure you are trained with your Omega powers. Okay?" She nodded. I looked at Hydra, "Should we go see Belinda's widow? I suppose we should make it a double funeral." It was then that King Uther and Queen Chumani walked in. Queen Chumani said, "Please tell me she
What a ride we have had in these last ten years. Aidinth and I are still blissfully happy with each other, and our kids are amazing. We are still being called to areas around the world to host anti-poaching campaigns. My favorites have been to China, to protect the pandas, and to Africa to protect the wild cats. I fell in love with the wild versions of these animals. The werebears and werecats have been trying to protect themselves as well as the full blood version with a fierceness that I have not seen anywhere else. Mainly because they were getting desperate. Aidinth and I went there and ended up calling Luna Abby in for reinforcements. The poachers for these animals are willing to kill and die for the money they expect to receive for the parts they keep of these animals. It’s crazy and stupid. Money should never be the driving force behind what we do. These poachers do not get it though. We had a lot of poachers locked up in those areas. They won’t be getting out any time soon ei
Six weeks later, we are at home, and I am downright miserable. I am waddling everywhere I go, and Aidinth, somehow, still thinks I'm cute. Today, we have company. Both of my brothers came up to visit and brought Sergio and his wife with them. We have been having a blast. Luna Abby came up yesterday with Alpha Damien and told us that the anti-poaching event in Alaska went great. So far, they have locked up one hundred eighty poachers. They think some may have chosen to get out of poaching altogether. We were all absolutely thrilled at that news. Today, Adrien and Julien came over to meet Sergio, Zaiden, and Allen. They all went on a walk around the woods, and we visited while Luna Abby and I cooked dinner. In the middle of cooking dinner, I felt a warm liquid rush down my legs. I whispered to Luna Abby, "I think my water just broke." She looked at my feet and said, I think so too. She smiled, "Let's get the doctor. Okay?" I nodded and she grabbed my phone. I logged in and she
Saturday morning, I woke up and jumped out of bed. I am so excited about this Pow Wow. I love them so much! Aidinth has never been to one, so he has no idea what to expect. I am super excited, so as soon as I’m done in the shower, I get dressed and walk downstairs. I decide that I want to make Indian frybread, after I finish making breakfast, to set the mood for the Pow Wow. As Aidinth and I are eating breakfast, Luna Abby calls to tell me they are in the building and there must be five thousand people there. I was floored. She said that King Uther made it, along with a few of his warriors, and Gryphon plans on showing up with a unicorn and Pegasus. I chuckled, “Be on the lookout for Sid. You know how he likes to make an entrance.” Luna Abby laughed, “Oh yes he does.” We finished talking about the arrangements, and the plan for the presentation, then we ended the call because she had people approaching her to introduce themselves. I smiled, knowing the event is in good hands
As we sat on the couch eating snacks and laughing at movies, I couldn’t help but wonder what is happening with Luna Abby. I’m sure she is still flying or driving, but it’s eating at me. Aidinth pauses the movie and smiles at me, “You can’t get out of Princess mode, can you?” I shrug my shoulders, “I’m just wondering where they are. That’s all. I know Luna Abby will keep me informed. She’s amazing at that. It just bugs me.” He pulled me close to him, “Do you need to go bake something?” I laughed, “You know me so well. I may need to do that. Let’s finish watching this movie, then I will think about it.” That is when my phone rang. I answered on the first ring without even looking to see who is calling, “Hello?” To my relief, it was Luna Abby, “Hey Princess Chloe, I have Alpha Damien, Gideon Begay, his mate Willow Begay, his brother and second in command, Denali Begay, and his mate, Isla Begay.” I put the phone on speaker and said, “Hello everyone, I am Princess Chloe Bergeron
Aidinth and I sat on the couch, napping, laughing, and watching TV for the rest of the day. Once in a while, I would step outside to check on the wolves. It is so good to see their pups thriving. It feels good to know that I had something to do with that. The white pup has learned to camouflage himself on his own now. The only time he doesn’t is when he is going in our garage for the night. He knows that he is safe in there. I woke up this morning seeing much more sunlight than I am used to seeing. I looked around and realized I’m still on the couch! Did Aidinth leave me down here? I started to get up and found that an arm had a vice-like grip on me. I’m sure it’s just to keep me from falling off, but I really need to pee. I tapped his arm, and he instinctively loosened his hold, without waking up. I walked upstairs to our room, and did my business, then took my shower. I dried myself off and walked to the closet. I put on a pair of maternity leggings and a huge t shirt, bec
Wow. The last three months have been a whirlwind. It has been three months since the event in Louisiana, and it was a major success. The local humans have joined the game wardens in keeping an eye out for poachers. Sergio has discovered that it’s mostly people who come in from out of state that are poaching. The locals who were poaching got caught very quickly after the event. Their own family or friends turned them in. It was nuts for them for a little while, but things have settled down a lot for them. Right now, I’m sitting with Aidinth at the doctor’s office, waiting for my doctor to come in the room. As she enters, she smiles, “So, would you like to find out what you’re having today?” I smiled, “I would love to know, so we can prepare.” She brought the ultrasound machine in, but it didn’t look like the same one she usually uses. I asked, “What is different about that machine?” She explained, “This is a high-definition ultrasound. If we can get them in the right position
When we got to the airport, Aidinth watched the guys unload the car with wide eyes, “Was there anything left in the store?” I laughed, “I couldn’t help it! They had all my favorite clothes in every size that I’m going to need.” He laughed as he wrapped his arms around me, “It’s fine, my love. I know you need them.” Then he put his hands on my belly, “They did seem to triple in size overnight.” I nodded, “I know.” We got on the plane, and I sat down. I took a deep breath and suddenly felt a little flutter in my stomach. I put my hand on it, and it happened again. This time, I could feel it from the outside too. I must have had a weird look on my face, because Aidinth asked, “Are you okay?” I smiled, “More than okay.” I motioned for him to sit down, and he did. I took his hand and put it over the spot where the baby was moving. His eyes glistened with unshed tears, “That is the coolest thing ever. That’s my child in there.” I nodded and he kissed me tenderly, then he said, “Things are
As we made it to town, I started noticing kids just walking around town. I asked Queen Judia, "What's going on with the kids? Why are they just walking around?" She shrugged her shoulders, "I really don't think they have much to do. They are in town, because it's more boring at home, and there is no school today." I asked, "Do you have a fairly large area that I can use to give them something to do?" She said, "We have a park, but it's not that big. It's mainly for the little ones. But it is big enough to add on to it." I smiled, "Why don't we go over there first. Seeing these kids like this is really bugging me." Queen Judia laughed, "Let's go." When we got to the park, I agreed that this was mainly for little kids. I smiled, "Let's give the bigger kids something to do." I suggested, "First, how about an obstacle course?" The kids gathered around us, and I greeted them all, "Hey guys! I'm about to improve your park, so there is something for you all to do. First, how
When we got back to King Mateo’s castle, we ate a late dinner, and sat outside in lounge chairs by the water and just enjoyed each other’s company. We had been talking and laughing until I heard a hiss, and a ball was thrown into my lap. I laughed as King Mateo shook his head, “Chloe, you have spoiled him beyond belief.” I laughed at Hugo, “Youaren’tspoiled, are you, Hugo? You just love me.” Hugo nodded his head and made a hissing sound that sounded like a laugh. Everyone laughed at what he did. Queen Judia laughed, “Chloe, you make him do things that I have never seen him do.” I laughed, “That’snothing. Watch this.” Then I looked at Hugo, “Can I hug you, Hugo?” He nodded his head and I levitated him to my eye level. I was petting his face, and said, “I need a hug. Is that okay?” He nodded and I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him. Aidinth chuckled, “I never thought I would be jealous of an alligator.” I put Hugo down and tossed the ball f
