The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 22. From the Past
~ RAIHANA ~“Here… I can feel something here,” Delsanra murmurs. I nod, looking around at the ground, which doesn’t show any signs that it was once a witch graveyard. There is nothing that shows signs of witchcraft, as if someone didn’t want anyone to know.We begin taking out our supplies, working quietly with only the sounds of nature and the ominous silence of this place surrounding us.“Ri.”I look over at Delsanra, seeing the concern in her eyes as she observes me. She has been the sister I never had ever since she and Rayhan found one another. Since the beginning, we were inseparable. After Chris, she is the one who knows me the most.“Are you sure about this?” she asks me.I nod. “I am, but if you don’t want to, I don’t want to force you -”“I’ll do what I need to. This isn’t about me. I just want to make sure you’re sure about it.”“Yeah, I am. Thanks, girl,” I say as I finish sprinkling some ash and herbs on the ground. Delsanra is lighting the candles as she places the crysta

~ KATALEYA ~There are certain defining moments in life when you question every decision you have made, leading to a specific moment. For me, this is one of them. Every single thing we were trying to avoid has happened. We weren’t able to prevent or stop it.The entire place is plunged into darkness as turmoil breaks out.The man standing above me is as handsome and sexy as he has always been. From those beautiful, sexy hazel eyes, straight nose, and kissable lips that are equally charming as they can be mocking. But it is not my Enrique whose mind is there.Yet despite that sickening truth, and through the shrieks of the crawlers, and those fighting against them, I remember one thing that Azarakh had said. That he could take on any form.Yet here he is, channelling the darkness within Enrique to be here. No matter what he said, it’s obvious he needs Enrique as some kind of tether to be on this earth, and that is something I won’t allow.Around me I see everyone who can fight, battling

~ KATALEYA ~Before he can even react, I have broken free from my binding. The black tendril shrivels up from the intense power of my aura as I tangle my fingers into his hair and tug his head to the side.I’m sorry for doing this without your vocal consent, Enrique. My canines elongate and, not wasting even a second, I sink my teeth into his neck.I have dreamt of marking Enrique in a million different scenarios, as we made love, as we promise ourselves to one another, on a Blood Moon, on the beach… even after a small argument, but never in a thousand years did I think it would be like this.Azarakh’s enraged roar almost splits my eardrums, but I keep exuding power.A wave of darkness pushes against me, mixed with rage. Followed by white-hot pain that rushes through me as his claws, both his natural ones and those of the bionic hand, cut deep into me causing splintering pain to dig deep into my flesh. But I do not move back, not caring that I’m bleeding or that he has his fingers full

~ ENRIQUE ~I don’t know what happened. All I remember is how sick and disgusted I felt knowing I was hurting her, resenting myself for not being able to protect her and keep her happy. That and this anger I felt when I sank my teeth into her neck.I marked Rhea. Then it was followed by excruciating pain, and then everything went blank. I came to, feeling as if I had been drowning, and then I awoke with not only my hand, but even my prosthetic buried fucking claws deep into Mi Reina’s hips.I have hurt her. I could feel her insides against my fingers, see the blood on my hands and on the floor around her, soaking her beautiful dress.She was pale, and although she was in pain, she was only concerned about me. Once again, I had hurt her, and she only cared for my wellbeing.As I step away from the hospital, watching the doctors and nurses discuss how much blood she has lost, reading out her vitals and the doctors throw orders to the nurses, I feel numb.I didn’t want to leave her, but I

~ ENRIQUE ~ The crawler had finally been moved to the dungeons, with hopefully a prison secure enough to hold him. Royce, Raihana, Delsanra and I formed it together. Seeing them perform spells, I almost felt I understood them. I was told I could perform magic without the need of spells. That is something I have yet to try when my mind isn’t consumed by turmoil. Now we see if the cell holds. However, aside from hissing and shrieking, we got nothing out of him. Raihana suggested we wait for Kataleya to wake up since Azarakh has conversed with her before, but that she will continue to try to get it to speak. I want to head back to the hospital but there’s still so much pending. “Jose, get the car. I need to visit the family of the deceased,” I order. “Alpha Enrique. I need your permission to allow me to question Hugo, with magic, if needed. He has lied, or at least kept things from you and us,” Raihana says. I frown, “What do you mean?” “You don’t need the Ash Stone to control th

~ ENRIQUE ~ The next was a devastated mate who had felt the pack-link break and had gone into labour earlier than she should have. The worst time for someone to learn they have lost their mate. She had already known he was gone. I won’t forget the look in her eyes as she clutched her baby daughter, asking me why he died. I hit send, sending the plans I want put in place to secure any future attacks on the power lines to Jose, who would get me the supplies needed to create a barrier around them with some parts that needed to be made to keep them accessible when needed and ready for me. I will have to work with the electrician on that as soon as they are ready and the current wiring is all fixed. ‘Elena, how is she?’ ‘Same as she was twenty minutes ago, Alpha.’ ‘I get it,’ I answer through gritted teeth. ‘Sorry, Alpha. I know you’re worried, but we are doing what we can and I spoke to her sister. Her mother will be flying out soon. She is the blessed wolf. She is a healer.’ I

~ LIAM ~ “Nothing...” Raihana sighs as the crawler simply hisses at her again. “Well, seems we won’t be getting answers from him. So shall we talk now?” “What is it? I told you I had something to do. That’s why I left.” “Yeah, but we were meant to stay together, especially at such a moment. Kat is…” I sigh, I don’t want to blame her, this isn’t on her, but maybe things could have gone better and no one might have died if we had them both here too. “Are you accusing me of Kat’s state? Couldn’t you guys handle it?” Raihana asks sharply, her eyes flashing with hurt. “I wanted to help her; we needed answers.” “No, I am not, Raihana. I’m just saying-” “I’m done with this conversation. I don’t answer to you.” “You kinda do. I was put in charge,” I say, blocking her path, my eyes glimmering. “We all know I was sent to make sure everything went smoothly. Do you want me to report your actions to Alejandro?” Her eyes flash as she steps closer, glaring up at me. “Don’t threaten me.” “I’

~ ENRIQUE ~“What did you just say?” I ask, staring at Benigno, my eyes simmering with rage.He bows low. “Mi Rey, it is as Antonio confirmed. We are sorry, but Hugo is nowhere to be found.”“Keep looking, I want him found!” I snarl. ‘Jose, send a team out to find Hugo. I need the hijo de puta to be found and brought before me!’‘Understood. I will deploy a large number of warriors to make sure this is done,’ he replies.I punch the wall beside me, glaring at Benigno. “So how about you start from the fucking beginning? Why did you conspire against me? Why did Rhea play me as if I owed you something? Why did Hugo say the very fucking same? I am not like my father, but I assure you if you cross me, I will fucking kill you,” I snarl.He bows low, placing his forehead on the ground. “I ask on the behalf of my guardsmen and myself for your forgiveness, oh mighty king. We only wished to protect you and your bloodline. Please understand, we did this for you. May I speak freely?”“Yeah, I want

~ SIENNA ~I shouldn’t be here.Everyone knows I got in because of who my dad is – was. Everyone knows I failed the entrance exams, but I was enrolled by order of the King.A favour and a curse.I was doing fine, until Dad left me, left us. I can no longer concentrate without the panic and nightmares plaguing me, threatening to devour me alive. I can no longer harness my powers without the turmoil and pain inside suffocating me. It’s alive and I have lost the tether of control over it.“Alright! Everyone here is going to be put into divisions!” A loud voice tears me from my thoughts. “For the next six months, you will work together, and some of you may be put into these very divisions upon graduation! So work well together. Each group will be made to balance one another!” the Strategy Master shouts, his voice booming across the large hall.I shrink into my hoodie, wishing I wasn’t here. I don’t deserve to be here. Everyone knows it. All I do is hold people up and if I do let my powers

~ ENRIQUE ~A short while later, we are sitting at our table as several people give short, heartfelt speeches when I hear faint voices on the wind. One sweep of the area and I notice who is missing from the tables of Kataleya’s close family.Sienna Rossi, the daughter of Rayhan and Delsanra, there’s an urgency in her voice.“…I want to know.”Whoever she’s talking to isn’t giving her the answer she wants. I scan the area around, but I can’t seem to find who else is missing.“I can’t,” comes a low male’s voice that is far too quiet to recognise. “Sorry.”I frown slightly as silence falls and scan the area. Where are they?Sienna’s ability when night falls makes it harder to pinpoint her anywhere.‘Everything ok?’ Kataleya asks me through the mind-link.‘Yeah. I just heard Sienna talking to someone, but I didn’t really hear anything much,’ I tell her.Her brow furrows ever so slightly, but she simply nods.A lot has happened over the past few years, and it has changed Sienna in many ways
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness Epilogue Part 2
~ ENRIQUE ~“I do.”Those words leave her lips, sounding better than I had ever imagined them to.“I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride.”I’m kissing her already, my lips claiming hers with passion and love as everyone cheers.We slowly part and I look down at her once more. She looks beyond breathtaking. Like the diosa she is…My gaze rakes over her breasts and I can’t help but smirk faintly. ‘Now that is a view I can devour,’ I murmur huskily. She looks breathtaking in the gown she’s chosen.And I’m happy she’s let my favourite girls get some show time. I love a good view, and this is one of my favourites.She blushes lightly as she looks up at me through her lashes. I take hold of her chin, gently tilting her head up once more, and I simply admire her.Her hands are on my chest, sending a soft crackling tingle through me, teasing me with the promise of pleasure only she can offer me.“I love you, Mi Amor, more than life itself.”“And I love you, more than anythin
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness Epilogue 1
Over three years later.~ KATALEYA ~I gaze in the mirror, my heart racing at how I look.I’m wearing an embellished luxurious champagne-coloured wedding dress. The entire bodice and skirt are covered in crystals. It’s fitted to my hips and shows off ample cleavage. The skirt flows out, and despite the weight of the crystals on it, the several layers beneath it keep the volume intact.My tanned skin shimmers and my makeup is soft yet glowing, complimenting my dress. My hair is styled in loose waves, pinned high up where a tiara sits, keeping my long veil, which flows past the trail of my skirt, in place.I’m wearing a diamond necklace and earrings that match my tiara. One that Raihana now adjusts with my veil.“Now you are my kind of bride,” she says, a small smile on her face.“A tad extra and extremely sparkly, you mean?” Alessandra remarks from behind us. She’s already ready. Her smoky eyes and glossy lips compliment her skin tone, and she’s wearing a dusky pink dress. The same shad
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 87. Mi Amor
~ ENRIQUE ~Fifteen minutes later, I have her out of the bath and on the bed with towels beneath her. She’s on her stomach, a pink blush colouring her cheeks.A towel is wrapped around my own waist, and a bottle of oil is in my hand. One that I now pour into my hands before I start from her shoulders, massaging them slowly and sensually. Making sure to run any knots out.The lights are dim, the ambience in the room sensual, but it’s the look in her eyes and her naked body beneath me that fucks with my head, the intense sizzling chemistry between us fuelling that intoxicating heat.But tonight, she’s a canvas that I will work on…My other hand tangles in her hair as I tug slightly, holding her head in place as I work the back of her neck.She sighs softly, relaxing into my touch. I then run my hands down the centre of her back, making her gasp as I massage her. I then trickle some oil onto her voluptuous ass. She bites her lips as I run my hands down her ass. My fingers slip between her
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 86. For Her
~ ENRIQUE ~The bathroom, which has also been newly decorated, now holds a large deep bath, one that is now full of bath milk and petals. The delicious smell of shea butter, cherry blossoms, and coconut mixes together in a pleasant concoction.“My love… you did this for me?” she whispers.“You’ve been working hard.” I smirk, “So I thought we could start with a bath and massage before I put you to work again.”She blushes as I place her down and the moment she kisses me, my hands grip her hips; her clothes incinerate, freeing her breasts from their hold. She gasps as she stares down at what’s left of them.“I like you naked,” I murmur, as I step back and remove my own shirt, and she instantly grips my belt, making quick work of it. She’s gotten faster, having improved over the last few months, and she loves to strip me naked as soon as she can.My naughty, dirty, little perfect angel.I wrap my hand around her throat, squeezing slightly as I run my tongue along her lips. “Delicious,” I

~ ENRIQUE ~‘Do your guardsmen have emotions?’ Carlos asks through the mind-link as we sit around eating at the same table.He’s glancing towards Rhea and Benigno. Marie and Jose are also seated with us. Right now Kataleya and Marie are discussing something about the indoor pool, and clearly Carlos took the chance to mind-link.‘I don’t fucking know.’ I shrug.‘Enrique, tell me… you should know, they’re your guardsmen.’ He almost pleads.I pull Jose into the conversation. ‘Carlos here is wondering if the creepy woman over there has feelings,’ I tell him mockingly.Jose smirks. ‘Just ask her. I mean, if you had women at the club back then, you might not care so much about the feeling side.’‘You two are horrible! Jose, I won’t hesitate to tell Marie how you were,’ he threatens him, making me smirk.‘Yeah, cabrón, don’t hurt his feelings.’ I snicker.‘She knows what I was like. I slept with her on a visit to her island, remember?’ Jose counters arrogantly. ‘You won’t tell our Queen Luna
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 84. Playful Moments
~ KATALEYA ~I smile gently at them, ruffling their hair. “Can you two play together nicely? We’re one big family, remember?”“But he doesn’t play the game I want to play,” Alejandro protests.“He likes to play hitting games.” Pascal pouts.“Yeah, and you're just a scaredy…” He trails off looking at me and I look around.“Why don’t you both play ball or one of the board games?” I suggest, pointing towards the game area that is set up for the younger kids.“Hmmm… ok.” Pascal smiles at me and Alejandro nods before they both run off together.“We’ll behave, Luna!”I smile as I watch them. Everyone treats me like I’m a treasure here. It makes my heart feel so full…“You’re good with kids,” Enrique remarks as he takes my hand and pulls me to my feet, kissing my lips deeply.I clutch onto the cotton collarless shirt that he has left several buttons open on, caressing his chest with one hand as I kiss him back. Before I step back, he picks up the glasses he had placed down and offers me one.
The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 83. Home
~ KATALEYA ~“I am starved.” Carlos rubs his stomach; his shirt hangs open, reminding everyone that despite his personality he is as ripped and muscled as the best of warriors. But I think he’s trying to please a certain redhead who stands to the side as silent as the shadows. The pack members are beginning to adapt to the presence of the three guardsmen.I hide my giggle. “Are you? Oh, would you take this over to Rhea? She’s been standing there for a while,” I say innocently.“Oh, sure.” He quickly takes the mocktail I’m holding in my hand.‘Don’t encourage him,’ Enrique says through the mind-link, although he’s standing with a group of the younger warriors. There’s a couple who will be going to take the entrance exams for the academies in England. I hope they get in; Estephan is a little young yet, but he is showing a lot of promise already.Leo passed two decrees that night. One; the age of the students in the academies changed. The academies will now start from the age of 16 and up
