Kayda. I opened my eyes briefly, gaining consciousness as I was being slightly tossed around in the back of some van. The floor was hard and cold beneath me. I could feel the vomit rising in my throat, but before I could worry about the nausea, I felt another wave of drowsiness hit me as I fell back into darkness. When I next awoke, I could feel humidity hanging heavily in the warm air. I was now lying on a soft surface that smelt clean and kept. I forced my heavy eyelids open and took in the room. There were large windows showing off the night sky, but I appeared to be looking out over the inky black sky that met the dark depts of what looked like a sea. I moved closer and noted my window hung over a steep and high plunging cliff. The room had a Mediterranean feel, and the floor tiles were terracotta in appearance. I had woken in an expensive dark wood four poster bed. The wooden bed frame had figures carved into it. At first glance, they looked like gargoyles, but I noticed on

Eoin. I snapped my phone shut after Ash's disturbing news. This was a lot to take in, but the main concern now was that Kayda was missing. My mate was taken from within Palace boundaries, and both Jagger and I were fuming. I was going to track down whoever took her and tear them limb from limb. Not only was my mate in danger, but my pup was and as the future King that was intolerable. No one should dare to insult me by risking my mate. I had James order the plane be readied for immediate departure. I apologised briefly to the elders on the council and begrudgingly to Lord Alpha Anthony Turner before I left. I'm sure my desperation was evident to them, but no one dared question me as Jagger swirled dangerously close to the surface, and my royal aura was uncontrollable. They could all feel my wolfs anger and knew to keep their thoughts to themselves along with physical distance. We pulled up to the plane on the runway, and I quickly got out and raced up the steps. The warriors followe

Kayda. The girls began to eat with no hesitation. Dana chatted to the blonde girl happily as the red head stayed silent, casting me the occasional sympathetic smile. I spooned some pasta onto my plate and began to eat, finding the food was surprisingly nice. Once finished, Dana and her friend, who I knew was called Britney, stood and, with little acknowledgement to me or the other girl, left the dining room chatting happily about a television show. "I wouldn't worry about Dana and Britney they have been here so long now that they're comfortable with the idea and brainwashed to believe life is good here." the red-haired girl spoke. She was a natural redhead judging by the unique colour to her hair. It was curly to the point that it was almost unruly and fell in a mass down her back. She had piercing blue eyes and freckles sprinkled over her face. "How could anyone except this?" I asked. "Well, we're treated well like princesses. In fact, we have the best of clothes, a pool,

Eoin. Once Danny had landed a few blows that Jagger and I both agreed were deserved, my father and Adam hauled us apart. "You can't just get a dragon shifter pregnant and piss off on council business. being away from you could kill her and the pup." Danny sneered. "I didn't know, did I? This wasn't part of the plan." I yelled, throwing my hands in the air. "She doesn't even want kids she's said so over and over. I had to endure a contraception talk between her and Dottie so this wouldn't happen." Danny added as I nodded. "Yes, well, it bloody failed, didn't it." I spat. "Do you think I was thrilled to find it out from Ash. She hadn't even told me when she was kidnapped, but none of this matters right now. All that matters is that we need to find Kayda with a bit more urgency and now factor in that she's not strong for long." I sighed as my Father and Adam nodded. "We need to talk to the rogues we captured." my father added as everyone agreed. "Then you need to break

(Warning some triggering topics discussed and touched on) Kayda I opened my eyes again to the same sickening feeling. This was happening far too often for my liking. I was certainly vulnerable locked in this fortress with the master as one of his pieces of treasure. The idea was ludicrous and made me even sicker at the thought and that the girls here excepted this as anything other than insane. I was lying on the bed in the same Mediterranean style room as before. I slowly sat up, whincing at the throbbing in my head. The split on my lip was healed, and I ran my tongue over where the lip had been damaged to find it smooth. The only sign now of the injuries existence was the dried blood on my chin and smeared on my cheek. I looked down, horrified to find I was now dressed in a ivory night dress, meaning someone had removed my dress whilst I was unconscious. The feeling of helplessness that I was unaware of who had been touching me really ate away at my soul as I hugged my arms acro

Eoin. Madame Lux, the Royal Pack resident witch arrived in my father's office not long after we had made our way back up from the palace cells. She walked in smelling of herbs and spices as usual and in her long flowing colour explosion dress that she usually wore. She had always had links to my grandfathers pack the Pearl Moon Pack, but after she helped my parents defeat the witch that killed Sage's mother, my father granted her a cottage in the palace woods. She had the full protection and respect of the werewolf community now whilst she dabbled in some magic in her semi retired state. She did spend a lot of time with Sage, teaching her to use her magic and brew potions. "Alright, lover boy." she winked at me as I groaned inwardly. Madame Lux also had a knack for reading the future, but she never gave anyone information that could change the course of fate. She evidently knew who my fated mate was. Sage entered soon after clutching books to her chest. She looked tired and her e

(Beware some triggering topics mentioned discussed and occur in this chapter) The Master POV. The girl was stronger than even I had anticipated. I knew as a dragon shifter that she was going to be strong physically, but I never anticipated her being so fiesty and mentally strong. Her resolve and nerve were impressive but also oddly a turn-on. I had never been attracted to a girl for her mental strenght for me women were there to serve a purpose to men, to bare heirs, to pleasure men and to do as they were instructed to do. However, in the few minutes I had spent with this unusual creature, she had actively fought against me, and that was an unexpected turn-on. My aura alone normally has a sinister power that usually makes people bow and bend to my will. I had felt Kayda's power when she had struck me and knocked me into the book shelves in front of the other girls, and it had caught me off guard. She was now locked into her quaters while the doctor ran her blood test for me. I nee
The Prince's Flame 29. The Sirens
Eoin I had been awake most of the night. It may have been a total figment of my imagination, but I could swear I could feel Kayda and her wolf Flame reaching out to me and Jagger. It was like I could feel the mate sparks faintly on my skin and like little lightening bolts in my mind, but it gave me no information or any new comfort that I was any closer to finding them. I stared at the printout of my pup scan that Ash had handed over the original printout to me. I could tell he was guilty that he had been there and I wasn't, but I didn't blame him. Kayda always had a bond to him, and I dare say even now she trusted him above me, this should be worrisome to me, but for some reason, it made sense, and even Jagger accepted their relationship. I trusted Ash above all and was glad that Kayda had him to lean on whilst I was off busy being King. We had made some terrible mistakes in not telling people we were mates, and it may have cost me my mate and pup, but I couldn't indulge in self pit

Chance How could my old pack have become this. In some ways, it was now no better than a slavery camp. I had gotten myself out but now quilt ate away at all those I had left behind to endure. My parents had given their lives trying to protect the pack from evolving into this. How money, greed, and one poisoned Gamma tainted a weak Alpha. That was what was the worst thing here. An Alpha should always be above everything and do what is right for his pack. It didn't matter how hard or dangerous it was. That was what the Alpha did. The Gamma , who had killed my father and taken his place, was so clearly not a true born Gamma. A Gamma was the one person who ensured the packs future, he answered to the Luna and the pups of the pack. A beta was fierce, tough and the brutal extension of the Alpha, to a Beta an Alpha was the only thing that matter but a Gamma would kill his Alpha to protect the Luna and the Alpha's heirs. The Gamma worked with the packs survival and future in mind and never o

Eoin. I spoke to James, who was now stationed in the mafia who were suppying the drugs to the street, I had to place him there to help. I couldn't stop the drug trade, but I could clean up the tainted supply, and sending James was my best option. He had been working with the Don there, and they seemingly had a good bond now. This was going to take at least six months, and I was already missing my best friend, but I was taking over more of my father's role, and the paperwork was mounting. I also had my mate Kayda, who was very close to having our pup and that no doubt was going to make me busy. Ash and Chance were returning from Chance's old pack with the whole higher ranked wolves and a lot of casulties. I had just approved a helicopter to fly a critical young woman on a ventilator in, and I knew the clinical was going to be stretched. I had put out a pack call through Gamma Andy for some of the elder ladies in the pack with warrior training to report to the clinic and she was s

Ash. Chance was doing a fantastic job, and Kayda was blowing my phone up, checking on him. Between her and Eoin, I had barely enough time to carry out any of the duties required of me. Anthony was a wise warrior and very observant, to be honest I felt he was one of those wolves the moon goddess blessed with a special power as he had a way of reading people and what they needed. He had discretely attached himself to Gamma Chance as a silent support always on Chance's right shoulder offering silent support, and it allowed Chance to stand tall and shine. The Beta here was really up to a lot of criminal dealings, and it appeared the Alpha was aware, but he wasn't the connection or organiser of their dirty dealings. The Alpha, Gamma, and Beta families in the pack were all filty rich, but the pack itself was dirt poor. The pack memebers weren't treated well, and they were all struggling on some level. We had uncovered some evidence that the omega's in the pack were working in the pack hous
The Prince's Flame 57. Peanut Butter and Chocolate.
Kayda I searched through the cupboard, looking for the large jar of peanut butter I knew I had stashed there, as Dakota and Andy sat at the kitchen island. I huffed under the gowing weight of my baby bump as the girls chatted. They were so transparent, to be honest. The investigation had been in full swing on the so-called master and I had spent yesterday giving my official statement in front of the council. Eoin was required to attend every day, and I knew they didn't want me alone today after reliving it all yesterday. Under normal circumstances I would scoff at the thought of me losing my mind or being upset by the events of yesterday but seeing as I was heavily pregnant and thus a little unhinged I was happy with the distraction. I thrumphantly grabbed the jar and struggled to my feet. "Goddess, I can bench press twice my weight and am generally freakisly fit, but carrying this pup around is one hell of a workout." I grumbled. "Well, I don't think you should be doing prolonged

Chance. Tye Alpha looked so nervous as he regarded me closely. "Is everything Alright Alpha?" Ash asked a small ghost of a smirk playing on his lips as Anthony stood just behind my left shoulder, ensuring I looked menacing and powerful to the group before us. "No Your Highness, I am sorry it's just that I had met the Royal Gamma Danny Moore previously and was unaware he had retired." the Alpha stammered as Ash raised an eyebrow. "My brother, the Crowned Prince Eoin, is currently in transition to the King title, and Gamma Chance here will be his Royal Gamma moving forward. Also, as I am sure you are aware, Gamma Danny's daughter was kidnapped by someone you associated with, so who I introduce as the royal Gamma should be the least of your worries. " Ash responded, allowing his aura to seep out. "We are here as advised to gather information and pass possible judgement on any dealings." he said so matter of factly. The Alpha and Beta stood firm, but I could see the Luna sway
The Prince's Flame 55. Karma
Chance Life is a funny thing. Just when I was on my knees with nothing to live for, I was captured by the King and most likely facing death for the diversion I caused in the future Queens kidnapping. However, King Emmett knew I didn't smell like a rogue, and when my story came out, he had taken pity on me. Madame Lux had used magic too, and whatever she foresaw in my future saved my life. I was given a new start along with my new name, Chance Hope. My old name, Sebastian Wilkes, had died with my mate and son. I was no longer the man I had been. The thirteen year old future Gamma, whose parents were slaughtered in a fake accident by a power-hungry Alpha who knew my father wouldn't abide by his dirty dealings and mistreatment of the pack was gone too. In his place stood the future King Eoin's royal Gamma, a title that held me above any Alpha and the ultimate respect to my father, who was a proud Gamma. His blood was in my veins, and it was now the royal gamma blood line. I knew wherev
The Prince's Flame 54. Andy's True Love
Andy I took my coffee out onto the wrap around porch of my new home, Chance was at early morning warrior training. He had with the help of Eoin, and the King designed this home for us to share. It was an elevated house like a cabin up amoungst the trees. I adored it. We lived about half a mile from the palace, and I could see it in the distance along with the tall building of the city in the other direction. I adored living amoungst the trees, and it gave me a sense of freedom I had lost. I loved my tree house but I doubted you could call a four bedroom house supported amoungst numerous trees a traditional tree house thats why Chance and I had named the house "New Leaf" in reference to the term "turning over a new leaf". I loved my new life here with Chance, and I had become friends with Sage and Dakota, who was a bear shifter, and the Prince consort Ben's sister. Kayda and I had become closer , and my relationships with Britney and Dana had become even stronger. When we were in the
The Prince's Flame 53. The Dragon Empire
Eoin I had managed to get the nerve up to tell Kayda that Dracos was in the palace cells. I wasn't afraid she was going to be afraid or scared. I was more worried she would stand up and rush to confront him. Kayda was as firey as her her fire dragon and red coloured wolf. However he materanl instincts were firmly in full power, and I was so happy to see her being content to allow me to deal with Dracos. I wasn't sure I could handle him in a room with that creep ever again. But as I watched her move around the royal baby shower with dignity and grace, my pride for her grew. She became a stranger to me in the moments she oooed and awwed over the tiny baby clothes and items with as much enthasium and joy as she used to have when she stood in the shadow with Ash at these events laughing and joking sarcastically. I now found myself watching her from a distance as she glowed but no longer with hidden desire and teenage angst but now with wonder and pride. Ash came up next to me and leaned

Kayda Life had certainly changed for me, I was now the future queen of the werewolves. Thankfully, whilst Queen Charlie had ladies maids and such, she lived a much more down to earth life. She had set the standard for dressing herself, cooking for her mate or family, or attending the pack dining hall. She had no real airs and graces in her own home and that I liked. However, I didn't complain to help with housekeeping and laundry. I wasn't a complete glutton for punishment. The first scary thing had been when Eoin had handed me a credit card to his accounts and declared that what was his was now mine. I had protested as he sat and nodded. As a gamma's daughter, I had access to my own decent finances, but Eoin had said I was no longer a Gamma. I was a Luna and a Queen. I had gotten over my worries when Sage and Rori took me to the baby store and well I picked up alot of really cute baby stuff, I had worried about the cost but when I told Eoin he smiled and said "not too bad." I had sh
