Hi everyone, I hope you enjoyed this update, I have looked at the previous comments which is very mixed. I am not sure what way I will go, but I won't be able to do a big update and then follow with a few chapters through the week as well. It wil have to be one or the other. I am currently leaning to just posting 1 chapter a few times a week. But I will keep you posted. As you can tell part 1 of Kat's book is almost complete and we are close to the end of Zade's book as well. But once I get a proper idea of what I should do regarding update's i'll keep everyone updated. I am trying to get into the mindset where I was a year ago but life happens and it's easier said then done.
~ 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
~ 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
~ 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
~ 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
