Moonlight Musei hope everyone enjoyed these chapters. Something was brought to my attention today regarding people who are re-reading my books are going back and leaving spoilers on previous books. Please don't do this. It spoils the books for people who have just stumbled on my books and are reading the books for the first time. I hope going forward everyone refrains from doing this. Thank you

The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness 84. Cousins
~ RAIHANA ~Kataleya returns to the hall with Kiara and Skyla but without Uncle or Enrique. I still haven’t told Uncle. Seeing her determination, I don’t know what to do. How do I pretend that I don’t care how she feels and that I should do the right thing when I can’t.Her will and love is admirable. I sigh softly, closing my eyes as I reach for my juice.“Are you ok?” Raven asks, touching my arm as she turns from her table, concerned.“I am,” I reply with a small smile as Liam turns too. His piercing gaze makes me look away. He had already asked me at a previous meeting if all was ok with me and I had lied.I had been tempted to tell Liam so I could get permission to contact Jayce, but when I didn’t tell Uncle; I decided against it and settled on waiting until today.Goddess, what do I do? How do I get her alone without anyone suspecting anything?After a while, I spot Kataleya, Skyla, and Azura heading towards one of the exits and I smirk internally.Got you.We’ve all been that age

~ ENRIQUE ~“Make it quick, I don’t have all day,” I say, smoking my cigarette as I stare ahead into the night sky. I’m no longer that kid who was helpless, the one who had hopes in a certain king, and as I look across at him, I can see the change in him from back then.His hair is littered with grey, age has left its mark with the frown lines on his forehead, the sharper jaw… That’s just how life is…Age. Inevitable of who we are, it will always catch up with us.But seeing him like that is also a reminder that he is not a god, but a man who had tried. Yeah, it hurts, it will always hurt, but I also acknowledge that perhaps he really didn’t have a choice… but it doesn’t mean that pain goes away.Kataleya’s words she spoke that night, words I know she’s never shared with anyone else. The thoughts that sometimes crept into her mind about her father and what happened back then. But she’s foolish for thinking it. After all, she is a woman no one can forsake… willingly.“My daughter is fuc

~ ENRIQUE ~When we re-enter the hall, the Lycan’s final words that he had said to me through the mind-link he could form with other alphas replays in my mind.‘I hope you do the right thing.’The right thing? But what is the right thing?She’s nowhere in sight and I can’t help but search the crowds for her as I take a seat at our table again. This is it, the last few hours to see that beautiful smile.I’ll make sure I defeat those crawlers for her. I’ll destroy them and make sure they never hurt her.I turn sharply towards the door as I see her enter with four other women of her family. Her eyes are downcast, her long hair falling over her shoulder and her hands are locked in front of her.A vision of pure beauty.She suddenly looks up through her thick lashes as if sensing me watching her. Our eyes meet, and I swallow hard, looking away.She really did just make her way into my life, somehow passing through the walls I created.“Hey, did everything go ok between you and Dad?” she ask

~ KATALEYA ~I hurry through the halls, trying to find where he went. But the powerful magic, the auras and the number of people everywhere mess with my sense of smell, yet I still manage to pick it up once I’m out in the hall and follow it down the hallway to a bathroom.I knock on the door, calling out to him. He doesn’t reply and I try again.“Enrique?” Panic is beginning to rise within me as I try to hear something, but the walls and door are too thick. I can feel it, something is wrong.I hear the guards talking amongst themselves. “Something shifted. A breach of security? Check east, top floor… round the back…”“Secure.” Someone murmurs.“False alarm.”“Just stay alert.”“Enrique!” I call for the tenth time. “Enrique, answer me or I will break this door down, I swear it!” I try to keep my voice down, but it is difficult.The door suddenly opens to reveal Enrique, and he almost knocks into me. His buttons are pulled open and his hair and face are wet. He braces both hands on the d

~ KATALEYA ~“I love you too. You are my world, Enrique.”He breaks our eye contact, his gaze falling to my lips as he slowly leans down, and tugging my head up, presses his lips against mine.Soft, sweet, seductive… that’s how he tastes.Slow… deep… intense…, that’s how this feels.Sparks waltz through me, and my heart feels as if it will explode. He doesn’t move his lips, as if trying to imprint the feel of my lips into his memory.His heart still drums wildly, and I feel the slight tremble in his lips as he takes a shuddering breath and he slowly pulls away leaving me feeling lightheaded.“And you are my life, but perhaps in another situation… if I was not who I am… perhaps we could be.”Huh?He takes a small step back, his eyes hardening despite the emotions I see in them.“Do it now,” he commands in English and my gaze snaps to our surroundings, and just then a witch who I know by face steps forward from the shadows. She’s quite powerful and in a position in the coven here in Amer

KATALEYA ROSSI: A LOVE TO CLAIMThe Rossi Legacies Book 6~ KATALEYA ~The aftermath is always silent.Whether it is a battle, an argument or the spiralling of one’s emotions, it ends with complete silence.But it’s simply outward silence because the storm within me cannot be suppressed. It refuses to be silenced.When my powers subsided, I was instantly taken away, in hopes that no one noticed. But that type of power cannot be hidden. It wasn’t. Many people felt it and it’s the worst possible time for it to happen.At the summit of all places!I now sit on a sofa in one of the upstairs rooms, in a drawing room. The crown, shield and sword belonging to the Asheton Queen- me, sit beside me as I stare vacantly at the patterns on the Persian rug.Aunty Raven, Winona, Delsanra and Mama are here, whilst the rest are handling matters. I’ve seen most of my family, but Dad is one of the few who had to handle the mess I made.“It’s going to be alright, our Asheton Queen,” Delsanra says as she c

~ KATALEYA ~It was a short while later and Dante had finished meeting everyone and is now sitting between me and Mama. There’s a glimmer of worry in his eyes and that unease I was feeling earlier returns. “You look worried…” I ask quietly.“I didn’t think you’d come into power so soon.” He smiles faintly at me, that smile that I wish I could see through.But my brother is an enigma. No matter how hard I try, I will never be able to see into his mind. But I can sense when his emotions are in a storm, and right now they are…“Is that a bad thing?” I ask quietly.He doesn’t reply, simply shaking his head and Leo sighs. “It doesn’t really matter what was meant to be or what isn’t. That shit is constantly changing, anyway. That’s why I prefer logic. At least that makes sense. Let’s just focus on what we need to do from here.”“Ah, speaking of, you’re taking your place pretty well. So, when’s the official coronation?” Dante asks with a smirk.“I hate planning that kinda shit, but the sooner

~ KATALEYA ~“Ahren!” Delsanra exclaims as Rayhan’s eyes glimmer a brilliant bottle green.“Is he for real?” he mutters, irritation laced in his voice.Ahren yawns before he smirks. “Real as can be, and in the flesh.” He winks.“This boy…” Rayhan’s jaw ticks and Dad shakes his head.“Stop stressing your parents out. Now what the fuck are you doing here?” he asks, frowning at him.“Not to mention the rules you have broken,” Mama Mari adds, sighing.“I’m here to volunteer to go to PR with Kataleya,” he says, yawning again. He’s teleported far… that’s clear from how tired he suddenly is.“I will go with you too, Kat,” Skyla says, her eyes flicking back to Royce as she caresses his jaw before kissing him deeply.“Sky, you don’t need to,” I say softly, knowing how often the two have to be apart for work and running their packs.“I want to. And I know Zu would want to as well, but she does have the kiddies to think about,” Skyla adds, glancing over at Azura, who nods.“That’s true,” she says

~ 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

~ 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

~ 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
