I hope you liked this chapter. I would love to read your comments.
I turned to Grandma Gabi, “Can we talk outside for a moment?” Grandma Gabi and I walked outside and I stopped her, “Sebastian found the house. The baby girl is still alive. They are rushing her in. She’s an omega.” Mom smiled, “That’s why she was quiet and didn’t move. She knew, instinctively, that she needed to do that. We should wait until I see her and treat her before we say anything to Jessica.” I nodded, “I agree.” Grandma Gabi and I walked back into Jessica’s ER room and she smiled, “Well, Jessica, here is what I think we need to do. I need to put you in a room of your own. You will be right next door to your mama. Okay? You will probably be in that room for the next couple days. I want you to be able to heal your ribs and your leg. I need to keep a close eye on your kidneys too.” Jessica smiled, “Will I be able to visit my mama soon?” Grandma Gabi nodded, “I hope we can take you to see her tomorrow. I need to keep a close eye on her tonight. Okay?” Jessica nodded, “Thank you, D
Sebastian must have gotten a mind link because he suddenly appeared in front of all of us, “Everyone touch each other. I’ll teleport us to the hospital.” I put one hand on Sebastian and another on Grandpa and we were in the hospital. The babies’ guards were fighting off a huge man. He was yelling, “I want my mate and kids!” I ran to stand between them, “What makes you think we will give them to you? Your mate is barely alive because of you. You don’t deserve them.” He tried to swing at me and I blocked his punch with my arm and used the palm of my hand to push his septum up into his forehead. He grabbed his nose, “You bitch! Who are you to keep them away from me?” I laughed, “You don’t know who I am. I am Princess Adele Renault and you are under arrest for assault and battery, child abuse, attempted murder and unlawful imprisonment.” He looked startled by this, “What are you talking about? I didn’t hold anyone against their will. My mate is my property. I can do whatever I want with he
It has been two weeks since Nevaeh woke up and she is up and around now. She and all of her children are now out of the hospital and living in a suite that is just below our floor. They have all become beloved residents of the castle and Queen Lori has taken a liking to all of them. She is constantly holding at least one baby and seems to live for helping Nevaeh. Jessica’s guard, Fara, has become very attached to Jessica, and the feeling is mutual. Jessica has decided that Fara is her “very best friend on Earth”, in her words. That description always makes Fara smile. Nevaeh decided on Jacara for the baby girl’s name, which is a name that I totally fell in love with. Today is going to be a difficult day for them, because it is trial day. Today is the day that Nevaeh and Jessica will have to testify against Baine Crawford. We were able to take Nevaeh to the dungeons a few days ago, because she wanted to reject him, formally, so that she could break the bond before he started getting pu
Valyn, who had been standing between Baine and Nevaeh, grabbed Baine by the throat and lifted him off the floor then put him back in his seat. I smiled at the idea that the asshole got his ass subdued by a woman. He did not look happy about it either. Nevaeh gave him a smug smirk and turned back to King Quincy, “Can we start, your majesty?” King Quincy smirked, “By all means. Can you give me a detailed description of the events that led to you coming to the castle?” She nodded, “I can, your majesty. I have been mated to Baine for seven years. We were not fated mates, but we were chosen mates. Everything was fine for the first two years. At least until I had our first child. When she wasn’t a boy, he accused me of cheating on him, that I didn’t know how to make a baby correctly. He was being totally stupid, just because our daughter wasn’t a boy. He started hitting us when Jessica was only six months old. I don’t know why it started, but I do know that he had started cheating on me, bec
It has been one month since Baine was sentenced to death and he is still alive. There are still people who are waiting to take their turn carrying out the daily beating portion of his sentence, so King Quincy is making sure he stays alive. Baine is wasting away to nothing after only being fed a slice of bread each day, his back is shredded from being whipped daily, and his face is almost unrecognizable. I go to the dungeons daily to see if he is still alive and to estimate how many more days he will be able to withstand the beatings. He has been begging me to kill him each day, for the past three days and I have taken great joy in telling him I will not put him out of his misery. King Quincy wanted him to suffer. This morning, he begged me, once again, to kill him through swollen and bleeding lips and no teeth. I shook my head, “Nope. You are staying alive as long as possible. I bet you didn’t know just how hated you are, did you?” He shrugged, “Do I look like I care?” I laughed, “You
When we reached the training room, we joined in the last hour of training and watched as the women improved greatly as each minute passed. I was certainly happy with what I was seeing when Sebastian whispered in my ear, “Is there rate of improvement making you happy?” I laughed, “How’d you guess?” He replied, “It’s making me happy too.” I smiled, “You can definitely tell which ones have a reason to fight.” He agreed, “You have that right. Would you like to speak with them before they leave?” I nodded, “I would.” When training was done, Onyx announced, “While you cool down, Princess Adele has a few words for you.” I stepped up, “Hey ladies! I have to say, I’m very impressed with your fast improvement. I want you to know that you are all the first to learn these moves. Even the warriors have not learned these moves. I wanted you all to have these as a way to throw an abusive mate or family member off guard enough for you to gain the advantage, if they started abusing you. I noticed th
It has been two weeks since Crystal moved away and she couldn’t be happier. She called us the night after she moved to the new town and told us that Alpha Abel is her mate! They are taking their time, he wants to be sure she trusts him before they mark and mate each other. She has already started warrior training and is super happy with it. She and I are starting to become friends and I am so happy to see the confident woman she is becoming. The other woman who wanted to reject her mate, Katie, was able to do just that the following day. We were able to get her and her child new identities and moved them to another town that is thirty miles away. She was able to get a job as a bookkeeper for the pack and is very happy just concentrating on giving her daughter a better life. I am so happy for her each time we speak. Meanwhile, we have been watching the training classes and the great improvements each class has made. Now that we have a comfortable schedule for the women’s classes, I as
When they landed, I noticed that their hands were all forced to stay straight at their sides. The man in front was a tall, slim, man with long brown hair and brown eyes. I noticed that his eyes looked sunken in and his complexion pale. The men behind him looked like death warmed over. They were all skinny, eyes sunken in, and pale complexions, so I knew something had happened to them that was making them waste away. Possibly a rejection. The man in front stood there with a smirk on his face, “So you figured out a way to find me. I have to tell you, though, this isn’t all of my army.” Queen Lori laughed, “The rest are probably in our dungeons.” Queen Winnie added, “Or they aren’t very committed to your cause.” Yahir responded, “No, they are just good at hiding.” I laughed, “I guess we will find out.” King Quincy had some warriors grab them, “Take them to the dungeons and guard Yahir diligently.” After the guards took them away, Queen Winnie raised her arms again and cast the spell agai
My quadruplets are five years old now and we have added five more children to the family since then. We had a set of triplets when the quad was two, and then a set of twins last year. To say I have been busy would be an understatement. My triplets, Eddie, Cade and Damien are quite the handful. I’ve tried to get Sebastian to intervene, but he just says, “They’re just boys.” My twins, Allie, short for Allison, and Emma turned one today. We had a huge playground installed at the castle and our kids just love it. We are giving all the kids in our children’s age groups the day off from training so we can celebrate the twins’ birthday. As we watched all the kids play, Joshua asked, “Mom, does the quad have to be here?” I laughed because all the kids in our quad are way more intelligent and mature than they should be. By the time they were three all four of them knew how to read and were highly skilled on the computer. I sighed, “But don’t you want to wish the twins a happy birthday?” He ga
Sebastian and I have been officially on the throne for three months and I am now miserably pregnant. My belly is absolutely huge and Sebastian loves watching me waddle everywhere I walk. I, on the other hand, seem to be nesting. I got all of the blankets for our little ones crocheted and I have been doing a lot of extra cleaning lately. I was cleaning the bathroom when Sebastian reminded me, “Babe, we have staff that do that. You don’t need to. If you want to do something for the babies, why don’t you crochet some more stuff. You could make little booties or hats for them. I smiled, “I think you’re right. Thank you.” I grabbed some yarn and a hook and sat down on the couch. I got up almost immediately and started walking away. Sebastian asked, “What’s wrong?” I sighed, “I have to pee… again.” He chuckled, “It’s almost over, babe.” I smiled, “I know.” I got to the bathroom and felt a gush of water. I knew I hadn’t peed, then looked down at the puddle under my feet. I walked back to the
When Sebastian and I got to the hall entrance the doors were closed and they were waiting for everyone to take their places. While we waited, I looked around us. There was a man behind Sebastian who was highlighted in red. With one hand, I conjured a dagger of ice. Just as he was raising is hand with a dagger of his own, I threw my dagger at him and it pierced his eye and went into his brain. He instantly fell backward, dead. Sebastian looked at me, surprised, “Was it a highlighted one?” I chuckled, “He was literally seconds from plunging a dagger into your back. I’m just glad I saw him.” He smiled, “I’m glad you did too.” Just then, the doors opened and we locked arms. I guess I was gripping his arm a little tighter than I meant to because he mumbled, “You are cutting off the circulation to my hand, love. Relax.” I chuckled as I loosened my grip on his arm, “Sorry, babe.” He chuckled, “No problem.” When we got to the stage, we walked up the steps and stood in front of King Quincy and
I woke up the next morning with my first thought being, “Holy shit! Today is Coronation Day!” I didn’t even take a second to stretch before jumping out of bed and practically running to the bathroom to take a shower. After taking my shower, I went to our closet and put on a sundress until it was time to get ready for the event. I went to the kitchen and poured myself a cup of coffee and sat in my favorite chaise lounge chair by the windows. I hadn’t been there long when my mom walked in. She poured a cup of coffee for herself and sat at the other end of my chair looking out the windows, “Are these the same kind of windows we have?” I nodded, “Yep. I like the idea of me seeing out, but no one can see in.” Mom agreed, “I always liked that too. Are you ready for your crowning ceremony?” I smiled, “I am. I was nervous at first, but Queen Lori told me that I’ve been doing the duties of a queen since I got here.” Mom laughed, “Being a queen is no different than being a luna. You are the moth
We spent more time than we originally planned in town and we had so much fun. After more baby shopping, Sebastian took me to a bakery that also sold ice cream. I ordered a jelly donut and a scoop of cherry ice cream, while Sebastian went with the classic apple turnover with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I reveled in the taste of my sweet treat and Sebastian laughed at me. I shrugged, “What? It’s good.” I filled a fork full of it and held it to his lips. He took a bite and smiled, “I guess you’re right. I never thought of that combination.” I smiled, “Now, I just need to learn how to make jelly filled donuts. I already know how to make the regular ones.” His eyes went wide, “You know how to make donuts?” I laughed, “I do. Would you like those for breakfast tomorrow?” He replied, “Probably not tomorrow. We should eat in the dining room tomorrow morning with it being coronation day and all the guests we have coming.” I looked at my phone and gasped, “Guests! My family is probably at the c
I woke up this morning, stretching and enjoying the sunlight streaming into our room. We have been moved into our wing of the castle for almost a full week and I have been thoroughly enjoying being able to cook for my mate. Once in a while we invite his parents over for dinner, just to see how they like being out of the castle and to consult with them on small issues. I got out of bed and headed to our kitchen to grab a cup of coffee. I moved to the chaise lounge by the window and sat there, looking outside, while I drank my coffee to wake up for a bit. As I sat there, I had to think about everything that needed to be done today. It’s the day before our coronation, so my family will be here today. I’m so excited to see them. As busy as I have been, I still miss them. I finish my first cup of coffee and sigh as I get out of my chair. I went to the kitchen and started making the biscuits for breakfast. As soon as they were cut out, I started making the sausage and bacon. When the sausa
It has been a week since Yahir was captured. King Quincy had sentenced him to death after one week of taking fifty whip lashes daily. Today is the day he is put to death and I am looking forward to it. His mate’s parents were sitting in front of us and I placed one hand on the mother’s shoulder and my other hand on her father’s shoulder in a gesture of comfort. I released a small amount of my omega waves and they visibly relaxed. The mother smiled at me, “Thank you, princess.” I smiled, “You’re very welcome. This may get a little gross. Let me know if you need more.” She smiled, “Thank you.” Just minutes later, Yahir was brought out, his entire backside, including the backs of his legs, was covered in bloody slashes. He was led to a wall, his arms spread out and wrists cuffed to the wall. His ankles restrained to the wall with his shackles. King Quincy sat in his throne and one of the warriors stepped forward to face us, “We are here to witness the execution of Yahir for the charges o
