Rain's P.O.V.

I started getting nervous When Zion told me our ride was waiting. I didn't realize we were leaving the castle. Then it dawned on me that was the reason he asked my mother about the cloaking spell. I tried asking him if we were leaving the castle, but he only said it was a surprise. But then he asked if I trusted him, increasing my anxiety and nervousness. Of course, I trusted him, but my intrusive thoughts were getting the better of me.

"My love, I need you to trust that you will be safe with me." He says, and I suddenly realize my intrusive thoughts are making him and Ryker panic.

"I trust you, Zion. I'm just scared. I don't want to risk our plan being exposed." I say as I wrap my arms around his waist.

"Everything will be fine. I promise." He tells me as he kisses my forehead.

I decide to push my thoughts to the back of my mind and focus on the good in his surprise for me. I know he would never endanger us, and he'

    Zion's P.O.V. After our picnic with Jessica and Orian and explaining that the members of the supernatural council knew of her survival from the poisoning, she seemed to be unsure of herself. Fortunately, I had another surprise lined up for her when we got back to the castle to help lift her spirit a little more. Pulling into the castle garage, I park the Jeep, help her out, and explain that she was of the utmost importance to me before leading her into the grand hall where all the orphaned pups, Annie, James, Sam, Odett, Evan, Orian, Lady Ezmerelda, Stephanie, Joshy, and Jessica are waiting for us with milkshakes, snacks, and movies that Jessica says are her favorite. We had a night full of movies and food with the people she cares for so deeply. I saw her smile more than she's smiled since all of this started; she seemed genuinely happy to have everyone around, to feel truly seen and loved without the responsibility and pressure of

  • The Orphaned Queen   Speeding Up

    Zion's P.O.V. When we woke up this morning, I planned on having a nice breakfast with everyone close to us. Unfortunately, I immediately noticed how much weaker Rain seemed and how much bigger her belly had grown after waking up this morning, even though she said she felt great. Everyone else noticed it as well when we walked out of our bedroom. While everyone was busy gawking at her, I sent a link to Doctor Jameson that he might need to check her out. He told me he would be here soon, but Rain told me that Dosha told her we needed to move up the council meeting before he could arrive. I didn't hesitate to get Orian to call the council members to get them here as soon as possible. While Orian was handling the calls, Jessica and Lady Ezmerelda helped Rain to the couch so that she could sit, and I asked her if Dosha was awake. Her answer made Ryker whine in my mind, but the fact that she was in and out was better than being aslee

    Rain's P.O.V. After Dosha alerted us of Douglas making his move and Odett's shocking news of talking to the twins, Zion left me in our suite with Jess, Odett, James, and Evan in a hurry to announce to our warriours that we are expecting the council members, the current leaders of the species, and their warriours tomorrow. "Are you ready for breakfast?" James ask. "I'm really not hungry. I feel nauseous." I say, trying to hold back from puking. "If you're sure, I'll let Annie know that we'll be skipping breakfast and having an early lunch in a couple of hours so Zion and Doctor Jameson won't kill me for letting you go without eating for too long." He says, making me laugh. "So, have you told Zion about our little online shopping spree?" Jess asks me. "There's nothing little about it, and no, not yet," I say while laughing. "It's a good thing he doesn't care about how much money you spend because we spent a small fortune on stuf

    Zion's P.O.V. While sitting in my office with Sam and Orian, discussing the ins and outs of the upcoming meeting with the supernatural council members and the current leaders and housing said members, leaders, and all their worriers, Orian mentions that it may be a good idea to contact the three other Alpha Kings to see if they have been receiving the same attacks from the so-called Rouge King. I give him the green light to make the calls while Sam and I focus on where we will be housing the incoming warriors. After an hour or two of getting everything settled, Odett comes rushing in, giggling as she carries a plate of cookies while being escorted by Evan and James. I laugh as she quickly puts the plate on the coffee table and lunges for me with arms wide open. She moved so fast that I barely had the time to catch her as she continued to giggle. She's definitely gotten faster, thanks to her training. "Hello, Princess. What brings you to the o

  • The Orphaned Queen   Boxes

    Rain's P.O.V. When Annie walks in pushing the trolly with our lunch, the delicious smell instantly reaches my nose, and my stomach starts to ache, begging for food. She handed everyone their plates before telling me I had extra protein and veggies, which I am grateful for since I missed lunch. Then she sits at the table with Odett, and we all began to eat. Suddenly, Zion asks about the online shopping spree where Jess and I spent a small fortune on things we need for the twins and a few surprises for Odett, making my body freeze at the mention of it. I didn't expect him to find out about it this quickly, and I instantly became nervous. Is he going to be mad at me when he finds out we spent almost thirty thousand dollars on everything they will need for the first six months? "Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag now!" Jess links me as she laughs, having way too much fun with this. I narrow my eyes at her in an attempt to shut

    Zion's P.O.V. Having lunch with the family was nice, and after eating, we all sat around talking for a bit when I realized Rain had spaced out for a while. When I asked her what was wrong, she told me how worried she was that our people wouldn't forgive or understand why she went into hiding. She even went as far as to call herself a coward, which made Ryker angry at the fact that she was thinking so low of herself. I wish she saw what everyone else sees in her. I tried convincing her they would be understanding and have faith in our people. I also linked James to see if he had devised any plans for her re-emergence celebration. He said he was still working on ideas and that he would call Mia and Morgan to help him, Sam, and Jessica with the plans. Rain gets a notification that all the packages from her shopping spree have arrived, so Orian and I make our way to the front gate to retrieve them. "Some of these boxes are m

  • The Orphaned Queen   Can't Lose Control

    Rain's P.O.V. After the guys and my mother left, Jess and I stood in a daze, even though Jess seemed calmer than me. What could have happened that was so bad he had to lock down the whole Kingdom? I know he said he would tell me soon, but I was curious, so I kept asking James questions, but all he said was that he didn't know either. About an hour later, Evan and Odett were done with the cookies and sitting on the couch across from Jess and me. We gave up on dealing with the twins' clothes and bottles until we knew what was going on, so we sat there talking and enjoying a cookie until I heard footsteps approaching the front door, making my body go ridged. "What's wrong?" He asks me. "There's someone at the front door," I say, making James, Evan, and Jess stand up and take defensive stances as Odett climbs on the couch beside me. Suddenly, the door opened, and Zion and my mother walked into the suite. I launch myself off th

    Zion's P.O.V. After getting to the suite, I got Stephanie and Evan to take Odett down to the kitchen to eat dinner while we waited for Annie to bring up our food. While eating, I eased into the conversation I needed to have with my mate and other half. The talk with Rain was going so well, and she was taking everything in strides and even asking the critical questions when suddenly I made the stupid mistake of trying to tell her what to do. I didn't mean to make it out like I wanted to keep her locked up in the castle like a prisoner. I don't want her anywhere near the battlefield, but I also understand her urge to protect our pups and people. This Kingdom is just as much hers as it is mine, and I know she will do anything to protect our home. The moment I knew I fucked up was when she started losing control of her emotions, making the lights flicker, the glasses shatter, and the table shake. She bolted from the table and into our

  • The Orphaned Queen   How It Ends

    Rain's P.O.V. Opening my eyes, I look around to find someone has laid me down in our bed next to Zion. He's covered in bruises and has bandages wrapped around his chest and down his left arm. I try to reach over, but I realize my body is sore and stiff, and I can barely move. "Oh, thank Goddess, you're awake." Jess gasps, walking through the door. "How are the pups?" I ask the first thing that crosses my mind. "All three are safe and sleeping. Lady Ezmerelda is in the nursery with the twins, and Odett fell asleep watching a movie with Sam in the living room." She answered while walking over to my side of the bed. "Is Douglas dead?" I ask, slowly starting to remember everything that happened. "You leveled everything in the area. Orian found you unconscious, covered in blood, but he didn't think it was yours. He said it smelled like Douglas and his minions. You didn't even have a scratch on you." She said with a smile, helping me to sit up. "How is everyone?" I ask

    Rain's P.O.V. After recovering from whatever hit me, I turned to see a female who looked so much like Lady Lena that it threw me off. Zion is just as surprised as I am, his face mirroring my surprised expression. Then I realized that the restraints that held Douglas in place were released, letting him recover and stand beside the lookalike as a group of his rogue army stood behind them. "Who the hell are you, and why do you look eerily similar to a dead woman?" Zion asks after he shifts back to his human form and takes his place beside me. "You must be talking about my twin. That foolish bitch refused to leave that weak coven and decided to go against me. She got what was coming to her." She said with a cackel. "I even offered to take her with me after I kidnapped you, but she refused and even tried to fight me. She might have been our parent's favorite, but she was weak, always letting everyone fight her battles for her." "You're

  • The Orphaned Queen   Unknown Woman

    Zion's P.O.V. After Rain's speech, Mia suggested opening gifts, so Jessica and I helped her up and started walking towards the chair designed like her throne where all the gifts were. Midway through the walk, Rain started feeling some pain and leaned over on me. When I asked if she was okay, she said she was. I knew she wasn't telling me the truth, but I decided to ignore it and keep walking. Unfortunately, she doubled over before we could reach the chair, grabbing her side. I quickly picked her up and noticed liquid running down between her legs as Odett called for her in a panic. I yell for Doctor Jameson, knowing he's here somewhere. He tells me to get her to the suite when he reaches us, but I know he wants her in the makeshift delivery room. I rush through the crowd in a panic, thankful that they made a path for us, and up the stairs to our suite where I lay her down on the bed, only now noticing that our friends followed. Do

  • The Orphaned Queen   Chaotic Birth

    Rain's P.O.V. I stood quietly in the peaceful darkness that I'd become accustomed to and waited patiently, thankfully not feeling any pain. I didn't have to wait long as soon the brilliant silver light erupted, and Dosha and Selene emerged as the light dimmed, and I could feel their warmth radiating off of them. But soon, I notice the grim look on her face, and the peacefulness I had felt melts and gives way to caution. "Hello, my dear daughter," Selene says. "I have come to bring you a warning." "A warning about what?" I ask, my stomach in knots as panic sets in. My first thought is that something is wrong with the twins. "The twins will be fine, do not worry, my dear. I will watch over them as I did with Odett. I came with a warning about Douglas." She says, and my heart stops for a moment. "He knows that you are about to give birth and thinks that you will be in a vulnerable state. He is planning to make his move now." "S

  • The Orphaned Queen   The Celebration Of Resurrections

    Rain's P.O.V. When Zion opened the double doors to the Banquet Hall, I was shocked, to say the least. Everyone was talking, speculating what this gathering was all about, and then complete silence followed by gasps as everyone's gaze met Zion and me as the doors opened. I place my hand on my belly as Zion leads us into the crowded room. Everyone now has faces of relief and tears of joy streaming down their faces as they bow while we make our way past them and to a table set up for us. I feel an overwhelming sense of love and confusion pouring off of everyone in the room. As we reached our table, we were joined by the others in our group, including Morgan, Mia, and Nick, as well as King Arnald and Beta Mark. Zion pulls out a chair for me and helps me lower myself into it before he addresses the crowd. He goes into detail about the reasons for my disappearance while also apologizing to everyone for keeping them in the dark about the

  • The Orphaned Queen   The Traitor

    Zion's P.O.V. I woke up this morning and felt something different in the air like something would happen soon, but I wasn't sure what that would be. I asked Ryker about it, but he wasn't sure either. Orian linked me to let me know that everything was ready and that everyone would start showing up in about an hour or so, but that he needed to see me in my office for an important matter. I told him that I would be down soon and quickly linked Jessica and Lady Ezmerelda to ask them to help get Rain ready while I went to handle a few things before the shower and celebrations began. As soon as I told Rain that we needed to get moving and that her sister and mother would be helping her get dressed, she started getting emotional, which I know is from the hormones. Thankfully, I saved myself by explaining that she wasn't fat, just very pregnant. That worked, and just in time, since Jessica and Lady Ezmerelda arrived the next second,

    Rain's P.O.V. As soon as my head hits the pillow, I fall asleep, but opening my eyes, I'm surrounded by nothing but black, and I know exactly what's going on. I found the light silver glow and walked towards it before hearing the comforting voice of the moon goddess, Selene. I can't help but smile as she comes into view before panic starts, knowing that we only have a meeting like this when something terrible has happened or will happen. "Hello, daughter. I'm glad to see you in such good spirits," Selene said with a smile of her own as she reassured me. This is a good meeting. There's no need to panic. I've come to inform you of my plans for Odett's future." "What do you mean? Won't she be the next Werewolf Queen?" I ask her, my voice thick with confusion and fear. Was she planning to take Odett away from me and Zion? I don't want to lose her, but I know that Selene will always make the best decisions, and there's nothing I can do or

    Zion's P.O.V. After Luna Morgan, Mia, and Nick's arrival, I quickly linked with Orian to suggest we give them time to catch up with each other. I say that, but in reality, I wanted to save myself and the others from the headache their squeals would cause. Don't get me wrong, I love the excitement in my mate's voice, but there are too many females in this suite at the moment. Orian agrees but thinks we should take Nick with us. "Do we have to?" I ask. "Yes, remember he was the one that drove them here. I imagine he's heard enough and needs a break." He responds with a laugh. "Fine," I tell him with a huff before turning my attention to my mate. "Well, ladies, King Arnald, Beta Mark, Orian, Sam, Nick, and I will leave y'all to the planning." We left the suite and made our way to my office on the first floor. Once in my office, I offer everyone a drink, and they accept. Orian pours everyone a glass and hands them out as we s

    Rain's P.O.V. After returning to our suite, we all sat around and ate lunch while conversing about different things. I noticed Zion and Orian suddenly got quiet, and when I looked over, I could tell they were talking through the link. I automatically got nervous, thinking something had happened, but then I heard someone approaching the door before there was a knock. When no one moves, and Zion helps me up from the couch, asking me to get the door, I grow suspicious but still make my way to the door anyway. I notice no one is talking, but I know Zion wouldn't be put in harm's way. As I open the door, I'm hit with Mia and Morgans's excitement and their high-pitched squeals, and I can't help but let out my own squeal. "What are y'all doing here?" I ask them in disbelief. "We're here for your baby shower," Mia says while looking over my shoulder at everyone. "What baby shower?" I asked, whirling around to look at Zion. "Ask Jess
