~ ENRIQUE ~

“Who is that?” Jose hisses as he grabs me by my shirt and yanks me into the fucking kitchen.

“My luna,” I reply in a deadpan tone.

Carlos snorts, clearly upset. “You mean you lost our real luna?”

“Or he really has got a bad habit of going around and declaring every woman he meets his luna,” A third scathing voice says and I frown, glaring at the cabrones as the woman reveals herself.

‘What is she doing here?’ I ask icily as I lean against the counter.

‘Well, we invited her. Besides, right now her logic makes way more sense than yours does,’ Jose snarls through the link.

‘I think everyone’s logic makes more sense than Enrique’s,’ Carlos adds unhelpfully.

‘Shut it,’ I snarl.

‘He isn’t wrong. Where is Princesa Kataleya, Enrique?’

‘With her family,’ I reply before looking at Marie. “You should tell your father that I’m taking another luna, but the deal stands. You can pick one of these cabrones as your partner and that will suffice as an allegiance. Might even be ideal to get o

Enrique infuriates me. He always wants to do things alone when he should be using the help of his people to find the answers, team work. The guard’s men will probably trick him into not getting the stone.

    ~ KATALEYA ~I felt restless for the entire flight, this trip has become more than Enrique and I… and although I want to get through to him, Dad’s words echo like a reminder or maybe a warning that this trip isn’t about me but to find the answers and to figure out how to stop the Crawlers. To put an end to everything that shouldn’t be happening.“We’ll be over Puerto Rico in a few minutes, ladies and gentlemen.” Li Sheng’s voice comes over the speakers. We are in one of Leo’s private jets.Raihana glances up and nods, although Li Sheng can’t see that. She applies another coat of lip gloss before she takes a deep breath, screwing the lid on and putting it away.“Alright, let’s do this.” she stands up,“I could try to teleport us two at a time?” Ahren offers.“No, not from a plane that’s flying at this speed.” Raihana dismisses.“I agree with that, Ahren. What have we said about teleporting?” Delsanra says as we all stand up. “It’s dangerous and can mess with the balance.”“What? It’s no

    ~ KATALEYA ~“I don’t need worshipping, I just…” I trail off as I gaze out of the window. She’s right though. Once we put a plan of action in place the rest will fall into place.“The witches are calling you to the lounge…” Ahren whispers from behind us, making us both jump and Sky growls at him.“You asshat, stop doing that!” she growls as he chuckles. “And I don’t think they’d like you calling them like that.”“They are witches, though, aren’t they?” he smiles innocently, but there’s a devious glint in those large eyes. I shake my head as he walks around the room slowly. “This place has a strange feeling to it. This entire island does.”Does it?“What do you mean?” I ask curiously.He shrugs, “I don’t even know myself.” He taps his chin but shrugs again. “Yeah, I got nothing.”I stand up, pondering on that as we make our way to the lounge. I stop at the door to see Raihana standing with her hands on her hips, having cleared the centre of the lounge. The table and sofas are pushed bac

    ~ KATALEYA ~Those dreamy yet somehow sharp eyes are on me waiting for an answer, that angled jaw and plump perfect lips melting my resolve. Almost as if they know they can work their seductive magic on me.And as much as I want to fall into his arms and melt into his kiss… I cannot.“As much as I appreciate Alpha Enrique’s offer, I will have to decline. It’s clear he doesn’t need our help and we will do fine without his,” I answer softly, yet clear.Skyla gasps, clearly not expecting me to refuse him.Enrique’s eyes glimmer. “Then neither will my men.” His gaze sweeps over Carlos and Jose.“Isn’t that a petty move?” I ask.“We both know you’re being stubborn for what I did,” his voice is almost a snarl, but he’s trying to remain calm.I raise an eyebrow. “Oh? Well then, I guess we are both petty. Also, how do you expect me to allow you to stay when you can’t even treat those around you with respect?”I hate that I’m doing this publicly, but I have tried to do this with love and patien

    ~ ENRIQUE ~I found it, the place where the chupacabras are entering our world, but it’s not that simple. A crack in the veil is not something I can just easily close and glue shut. It simply looks like a slight blue in a tiny spot. It’s not that big, so these chupacabras are just about squeezing through or it makes me wonder are there chupacabras that are larger?The tear itself looks harmless, just a slight glaze that reminds me of a heatwave. I can see the water beyond it. But the moment I attempted to somehow try to seal it shut, the pressure I am met with is immense, whilst the crack didn’t get any smaller.Although the guardsmen are using their powers to protect me, they will not assist me in anything more because, as Benigno, one of the guardsmen said; ‘You must possess the Ash Stone for our absolute obedience.’Yeah, I fucking need it to put the redhead in her fucking place.She’s quiet, talking when she needs to, but at times there are traits that remind me she is indeed not h

    ~ KATALEYAI stumble back, my heart skipping a beat at the way he holds my arm making sure I don’t fall, his power surging forward, and I don’t know if I’m just somehow more heightened to his power but I can feel the difference within it, it is not just a powerful aura that belongs to an alpha but one that is intertwined with the very threads created with magic and fire.My eyes blaze as Enrique raises his other hand, a blast of blinding power throwing the chupacabra back where it lets out a strangled blood curdling scream before it incinerates completely just as another one pushes out from the crack.Enrique turns, but this time I beat him to it. Raising my hand, I send a wave of light surrounded by glowing petals at the monster. A move that looks more beautiful than dangerous, but the moment it touches him it is torn apart, and I look away as bits of the monster fly everywhere.No! I wasn’t trying to do that! Oh, that’s gross!I am trying to hold back my powers but I’m still overdoin

    ~ KATALEYA ~“How- how is that even possible?” I know he can’t be Enrique’s… or his father’s? No… I’m certain all three are dead… and at that time, back when Enrique was little, Hugo was there… so someone before Sebastian Escarra. “Enrique’s grandfather’s?”He looks a little surprised before he smiles, “You are a clever woman, My Queen.”“So, I’m right?” I ask in disbelief.He looks down at the dug-up earth and smiles a little. “Not exactly but close. I was a guardsman of his great grandfather’s, usually, we die with our king of course, and with the djinn, their life was shortened, but even then, we do not live past our king unless he commanded us to fulfil a duty that outlived him.”“And he asked you to watch over his family…” I say slowly.Hugo nods, “Yes, so I did what I could, simply taking care of the family and offering guidance and support for the Escarra kings and their families… and although the djinn was defeated, it left a devastating impact on Alpha Enrique.”“I see… But I

    ~ KATALEYA ~It’s much later, yet Enrique has not returned. Soon the pack members begin returning and there is nothing we can do to keep them away for any longer without alerting the guardsmen or Enrique. The chefs needed to cook, too. I missed helping and I stopped in to say hello to them all.“You should head back, Sky. I want to stay a little longer,” I say quietly when I exit the kitchen.She raises an eyebrow but doesn’t question me, which I appreciate since I want to do a little searching upstairs in the closed-off quarters.Since I can’t be sensed, it will be better if I go alone. I know Enrique wouldn’t like me to go there, but we don’t have time to waste, and since he isn’t back I can make use of my time and try to locate the Ash Stone. We have to start somewhere.Going upstairs, I quietly sneak up to the unused area of the packhouse.Planting my hands on my hips, I look around.Right, so anything that contains a rock could be the Ash Stone, so I’ll begin by separating those t

    ~ ENRIQUE ~I smirk as I slink away from the stairs, not wanting anyone to sense me. Seeing Kataleya get her sassiness on is fucking hot. I like it when Mi Amor gets all possessive.My smirk fades as I ponder on her parting words.A stone… I don’t have any kind of stone… and there is no stone that means anything to me.But even as I think that, there’s one that comes to mind. My heart races as I pause, I need to check it out. Although I have touched it a few times over the years and I’m assuming that I should have felt something I still want to be certain.Maybe something is missing. It’s worth looking at again.I head to my office, lock the door behind me, and walk over to the shelf where the box containing the necklace she gave me long ago used to sit. It’s something that I’ve always held onto although I have tried to hate it with everything I have.I scan the shelf remembering I had moved it, turning - I glance at my desk, about to walk over to it when I stop, cursing as I run my fi

    ~ 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

    ~ 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

    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

    ~ 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

    ~ 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

    ~ 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.

    ~ 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
