2022-03-09 11:50:57At 4:15 a.m. Lucianne dashed to the front door when she heard a light tap. She and Xandar asked Mrs Parker to babysit much earlier this morning so that they both could spend a few hours together.
Lucianne got the picnic basket while she heated up some of the food that she and Xandar prepared the night before. After Xandar stuffed the picnic blanket into the basket, they left through the backdoor, shifted and made their way to the freesia field.
Xandar still carried her across the river, and when they reached their destination, they made their way across the field of flowers and placed the basket under the largest acacia tree, their usual spot. After shifting back, they set up the food and drinks.
When Lucianne was satisfied with the arrangement of everything on the picnic bl

Whatever Xandar just said was not just ‘terrifyingly overwhelming’. It was monstrously torturous, heartbreaking and soul-crushing. It was basically the strongest cocktail of all his fears combined into a single scene. Lucianne’s hands reached out to stroke his cheek and shoulder, ensuring him that she was right there in front of him, that she was his and only his, that they weren’t apart and never will be so. He leaned into her hand and kissed her palm before she asked in a small, encouraging voice, “How did you fight it?” He managed a smile when he explained, “For a while, I didn’t think I could. My instinct was to pounce on Greg, who was holding you a little too close for my comfort…actually, I prefer if he didn’t hold or touch you at all.” His grip around her instin

One of the perks about being the queen was that Lucianne could be fully trusted to take suspects and criminals out for however long she wanted. It wasn’t advisable or customary because of issues of safety, but Margaret’s case was, of course, different since she was working to get pardoned. There was no way she’d try and hurt Lucianne, and even if she did, Lucianne’s Authority would stop her. After they got into the car and began talking about Stella, Lucianne insisted Margaret call her ‘Lucy’ like everybody else before their conversation continued. Lucianne drove them to an outdoor café with potted plants here and there and a water feature for a wall that had the most invigorating sound. After placing their order for slices of cake and cups of coffee, they thanked the waitress and got down to business. Margaret was pressing her f

Lucianne chuckled and shook her head without hesitation as she answered, “No. I can think of more than a hundred things wrong with myself and I’d love to tell you all about it but we’d probably be here for days!” Margaret was encouraged to laugh in response because she felt less alone. “Don’t take this the wrong way but I’m glad you said that, Lucy. It’s never going to be easy to be happy with who we are, is it?” “It’s never going to be easy to be unhappy with who we are either, don’t you think?” Lucianne turned the question around with a smile. That got Margaret thinking, and when she realized what Lucianne was trying to tell her, she smiled wider and said, “I’m starting to think that Tate lied to me when he said you were only a Gamma. Either that, or you have a hidde

After Lucianne settled the bill, she drove them to Annie and Christian’s home. The guards let her in and told her that the duchess was at the other end of the villa with her guests. “Perfect. Thank you, Frederick,” Lucianne uttered with a smile, and the guard tipped his cap in response. Lucianne drove across the estate and parked right in front of a single-storey building that was detached from the villa. Lucianne got off and Margaret followed her. When Lucianne's hand was inches away from the doorknob, her ears perked up. She left the door alone and began walking around the building when she said, “They’re over here, actually.” The moment they reached the back, Margaret gasped at the gorgeous greenhouse. It

The defense ministers, Margaret and her mavericks, Lucianne, Xandar and Christian reached the Den. Chief Dalloway, who was escorting Kate, looked at the duke, as if asking him an unspoken question. Greg got the message, and pointed at the only chair at the side and said, “Over there, Chief.” Despite being surprised that this duke actually addressed him politely, he complied. Kate was confused. What was happening? And why did she have to go first? None of her friends knew what this was about, not even Margaret. But Tate knew, and it was killing him and his wolf to not say a thing to their mate. Lucianne even had to discuss with Xandar for two whole minutes before deciding whether they should tell Tate. Even n

Greg's answer made everyone even more stunned. Lucianne gritted through her teeth when she asked Kate, “Earlier, you told me that you didn’t know where the discretus who invaded Blue Crescent was supposed to take you. Now, the trace is showing that your boyfriend is from the Forest of Oderem. Are you saying that you didn't know where he was from?" "No." "Then how are these two contradictions both the truth?” “My boyfriend wasn’t going to bring me to the forest first. He said he needed permission to do that, not just the leaders’ but also the forest’s permission. I was supposed to go to a transit location. And he said that if permission was ever refused, we’d just live somewhere else.”

As soon as the vigils returned to vampire territory after the investigation of the hut and hideout in mid-afternoon, they made their way to the castle once again. Outside Pellethia’s study, Duica took a deep breath, knocked twice, and waited.“Who is it?” Pellethia’s familiar voice came from inside.“It’s VIG 001, Your Majesty.”“Come in, Duica,” came the reply.Duica was surprised. That was the first time the empress had said his name. Dominic nudged him and teased through their mind-link, ‘She might have a favorite after all!’After Duica rolled his eyes, he opened the door and Pellethia, w

Maddock spoke softer when he continued explaining, “Lady Luisa and Heros Pas were assassinated for what your late father deemed to be treason, which many couldn’t imagine how. Rosalie was never a royal aid or anything close in the first place. That decision did not help with the tension with the lycans at all. The untimely death of Heros Pas, one of the most prominent lycan officials, was one of the strongest propaganda used by their kind to instigate hate and encourage the wolves and lycans to kill us.”Pellethia refuted, “Rosalie was closer than a royal aid. She was practically family. My father did what any ally would have done - avenge her death. As for Lady Luisa, wasn’t she a close family friend of yours, Maddock?”“She was, though I don’t see how that’s relevant.”

As he gently took the baby girl from her mother, everyone braced themselves for the deafening screams that would usually follow. But what came next was just soft coos as Enora leaned against her uncle’s shoulder, resting her head there with a soft smile. After a few quiet moments, Greg glanced at the child before looking back at Xandar and Lucianne when he questioned, “What did you two feed her this morning? What sorcery is this?” Christian had a theory, which he shared as he walked over to Greg, “Maybe she’s starting to warm up to us. Let me try.” As soon as Greg reluctantly detached Enora from his shoulder and the baby realized that she was going to a different adult that was neither one of her parents, she screamed and started tearing up as she pressed herself again

The ceremony to return the title was held in the abandoned castle next to the Forest of Oderem. Pellethia had an unexplainable feeling that it had to be there, as did Lucianne. When the servants went to have the place cleaned up, all praying that they weren’t going to encounter anything out of the ordinary when they did their job, two among the sixty cleaners entered a room on the highest floor that was covered with a very thick layer of dirt and dust. When the two servants assigned to clean this particular room opened the windows to let in some air, a dash of breeze came from the forest and blew at a part of the dirt on the floor, making the poor servants flinch before instinctively holding each other as they quivered in fear. When nothing happened for the next few moments, they slowly released their hold of each other. Th

Gerella walked gracefully down the aisle, and while all eyes were on her, her sights stuck to her groom who looked like he was close to tears as he beamed at her. When she reached him, he offered her his hand to help her onto the platform. The music stopped, and the guests took their seats once more. After the marriage officiant recited from the Scriptures of Matrimony, he announced that it was time for the exchange of vows. Toby began, “Ella, from the moment we met, I knew that my life was never going to be the same again. Not only can I now boast about being the only one among my friends to get the most beautiful hybrid for a wife, your mark practically gave me the license to also gloat about being able to see a discretus when they cannot. You have no idea how much fun I’m going to have lying about a discretus’s presence when we’re training.”

7 weeks later “I’ve actually already had two. They taste pretty good.” Toby told Lucianne as they stood by the table with the trays of cupcakes. He then added, “I’m glad she decided to start a business out of this. Her baking skills are fantastic!” Hailey made those cupcakes. She was now a probationary kindergarten teacher on weekdays and a baker on weekends. She and the other mavericks still worked for Greg, but they were free to indulge in their hobbies and passions when they didn't have maverick duties. Some even pursued career paths that earned a salary the 'normal' way. Jade opened a cyber café which attracted lots of youngsters, and Hailey baked cupcakes or made pastries to sell to Jade’s customers. She offered him a small percentage of her earnings for his space. Some even came in just to buy her baked goods.

After Margaret managed to compose herself, she cleared her throat, looked into Tate’s eyes that held so much love and assurance, and began reciting her own set of vows, “Tate, when we met, I thought that our bond wasn’t going to last. I thought that a rejection would follow, from you or me, or even from the both of us. You haven’t the faintest clue of how relieved and happy I am that I’ve been proven wrong. Very wrong.” “I was wrong to think that our bond is a mistake; I was wrong to judge you based on the title you inherited; and I was wrong to think that you could never love me the way I didn’t know I needed to be loved. Never in my wildest dreams could I’ve imagined falling in love again, and never did I think it was someone as perfect as you are, Tate. I held so much hate from my past, carrying it throughout my life, even scaring away a few acquaintances with my untamable inferno, yet y

The Alpha of White Blood got cheers and claps even before the bride emerged. He was pleased to see that his pack members were not giving the vampire guests odd looks, and he was proud that, when he raised this matter with everyone weeks before the wedding, they seemed more excited and welcoming than reluctant and disapproving. What surprised him most was that the vampires didn’t sit at one place, but were scattered among the wolf and lycan guests. The Alpha wanted the integration but he definitely didn’t expect to get it this soon. Tate took a good look around to commit the sight before him to memory - the memory of his closest friends and pack members here to celebrate his and Margaret’s special day. When his eyes fell on Lucianne, she linked, ‘Margaret’s more t

3 months laterAlissa was pulling Gabriel by his arm through the rows of white, yellow and beige flowers in a nature park where Tate and Margaret decided to have their wedding ceremony. In the sea of White Blood pack members, Alissa finally found the creature she was looking for.“My Queen, this is Gabriel, my second-chance mate and husband. Gabriel, this is our queen.” Alissa said with the widest smile that Lucianne had ever seen. Alissa and Gabriel tied the knot two months ago in the marriage registrar’s office, with only the attendance of her triplets, Gabriel’s brother, Greg, Hailey, Desmond and Ivory.Lucianne smiled warmly at the nervous-looking man in a tuxedo. “Well, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you, Gabriel.

Alissa’s furrowed brows and puzzled eyes shifted to the door, and her defensive instincts kicked in. She extracted the hard drive from her laptop and slid it into the custom-sewn compartment in her jeans. Reaching for the loaded gun and heading for the door, she tried to guess who that could be. The property was bought under an alias. Her landlady never came up in the last ten years she stayed here. Greg and the others usually gave her a heads-up before dropping by.She looked through the keyhole to see if she was able to get anything from the slit. All she saw was a sand-color shirt. She was also picking up a delightful yet somewhat familiar scent of oak and rain. The knock came again. She pressed her ear to the door, where she heard a heavy sigh before something was placed on the floor as the footsteps retreated.Alissa waite
