I smiled, “Thank you. My little sisters are definitely the best. I am supposed to have my four female warriors with me in the office. They are under the king’s order to keep everything I tell you confidential.” She smiled, “I am under the same order too. It’s good to know all this. Shall we get down to why you are here?” I nodded and my mom smiled, “You go ahead. I will be here with the girls when you get out.” I nodded, “Thank you. I’ll be back as soon as possible” I walked into the office and it didn’t look anything like what I had imagined. As soon as I walked in, I saw a desk with a chair across from it. I turned to the right and found a huge, puffy sectional couch with tons of throw pillows scattered all around it. I looked to the left and there were several of the giant bean bag chairs for adults. Those looked like fun. I made a note to look for one of those for my room as Carrie Roberts asked, “Is it not what you expected?” I laughed, “Not really. I was just expecting a couple o

Micah’s POV After mom’s appointment, the mom and our sisters went to the counsellor’s office and our dad took my brothers and me to his office in the castle and we met with grandpa. Dad explained to King Parker, “Dad, Adele received a text this morning from an unknown number, so she asked Micah to open it.” I then growled, “I took her phone from her and brought it to dad. I was beyond livid. It was a picture of a dead woman with ‘You will be mine’ carved into her back. Then another picture of the front of her that said ‘submit’.” Grandpa growled, “What are we going to do about it?” Dad explained, “We started a text conversation with him. We told him that she will never submit, but we were acting like her. He has asked her to go out with him and we have set up a meeting place. We told him that she won’t let him mark her until she can trust him. He offered a date tonight so that she can get to know him. We told him we would meet him this afternoon at a public place and we wouldn’t go an

Bridget POV I saw Dune get out of his vehicle and I made the phone call to Prince Luke. I put my phone on the table after locking the screen. I had my earbuds in, so as soon as he sat down, I made sure he saw me take one out, “What do you want?” He smiled, “You already know what I want, Adele. You are my mate.” He reached out to try to touch my face, but I backed out of his reach, “You are not touching me until I know, for a fact, that you are my mate. So far, I’m not convinced. You’ve already obliterated my trust in you.” He growled, “A lot of that wouldn’t have had to happen if you had let me mark you.” I shook my head, “You see, that’s where we think differently. My actual mate would have never thought about trying to hurt me. My real mate wouldn’t have even thought about locking me in a room. So, you see where I’m going with this.” Dune looked at me with a blank expression, “You will see. I am your mate. But, if you want to trust me before I mark you, so be it. Let’s have dinner.

Adele POV When I walked out of Carrie’s office, my mom looked like she was ready to kill Carrie after she saw me. Apparently, it’s not a good idea for my mother to be waiting in the waiting room after I have had a particularly tearful therapy session. She jumped out of her seat, “What did you do to my baby?” I laughed, “Chill out, mom. Your baby needs to do some screaming and crying to get over the shit she’s been through. This won’t be the last time I come out looking like this, either. So, you will need to either get used to it or don’t be here when I come out. I don’t have to go outside this castle to get back to our wing. I can do it with my bodyguards.” Mom nodded, “I get it. I will get out of mom mode during and after therapy sessions.” We scheduled next week’s therapy session, then we walked back to our wing of the castle. When we reached the main area of the castle, Grandma Zara ran to me and wrapped her arms around me in a tight hug, “Oh, my sweet Adele! How are you?” I smil

We all stayed in our wing of the castle that night, with Bridget getting her own room. I gave her a set of my pajamas, just in case he appears in her room in the middle of the night. They have my scent on them as I had held them against my neck. I wanted to make sure she would definitely be mistaken for me. She recognized the reason for this right away and chuckled, “You may not have any scent left by the time we get him.” I laughed, “I doubt that.” We said goodnight and I went to bed. After a night full of nightmares, night terrors, and sitting up against my headboard, rocking myself while hugging my pillow. I finally decided to get out of bed and get a cup of coffee. Leaving the lights off in the living room, I sat in the chaise lounge next to the window and stared outside with my cup in hand. I was trying to get my head straight before everyone got up for the day. I was able to sit there and get two cups of coffee in my system before mom got out of bed. She filled a cup with coffee

We went home that day, after Lizzy and Emily came back from school. The castle had arranged for me and Bridget to have identical cars. Since she already had a black Corvette, I received one exactly like it. I smiled widely at the car and hugged Bridget. She asked, “What was that for?” I laughed, “For not owning a station wagon!” Everyone around us laughed as Bridget and I got in our cars, laughing all the way home. As she followed me home, she was taking note of how to get there from town all the way while I was trying to take it slow enough for her to be able to remember the way we were going. When we got home, I suggested she use my closet to put her clothes in so that my scent will be on everything she wears. I sighed, “I know it’s a bit creepy right now, but we are dealing with a really creepy guy.” She agreed, “Tell me about it. There are so many things that he does that we have to watch out for. Don’t let him touch me, don’t turn my back on him, and the list goes on and on.” I l

Later that night we were all sitting in the living room, joking around when Bridget’s phone dinged. I looked at her and she stiffened, “That’s my ‘Adele’ phone.” She unlocked the screen and gasped as she handed it to Micah. Micah’s face turned bright red and his jaw clenched as he handed it to dad. Dad looked at it and growled, “Boys, Bridget, let’s get to the conference room.” I stood up and dad growled, “I don’t want you in there yet, sweetie. I know you want to know what’s going on and we will tell you. Just not right this moment. We need to work through the anger first. We can’t add your emotions to the already volatile mix right now.” I nodded, “Okay, dad. I trust you guys.” I moved to sit next to mom and put my head on her shoulder, “When is it going to end?” She sighed, “Trust me, baby girl, they’re working on trying to end it as quickly as they can. I’m starting to think we need to call in the alliance. I keep getting a feeling that all of this is just a distraction for somethi

It was funny, to me, that Micah chose that exact moment to knock on my bedroom door. I opened the door and Micah’s hair was messed up like he had been running his hands through his hair. I asked, “What has you so wound up?” He let out an exasperated breath, “We are calling in the alliance. Bridget, I need you to use your ‘Adele’ phone to cancel your lunch date with Dune.” Bridget immediately picked up the phone and texted Dune, “I’m going to have to cancel our lunch today. Maybe another time.” Then she asked Micah, “Should I say anything about the dark warriors outside our house?” Micah looked at me, “Well, sis, what would you do?” Bridget got a text from Dune, “Why?” Bridget asked, “Adele, he’s asking why. What should I tell him?” I responded, “Tell him I’m not leaving my house with his buddies hanging out around my house and watching me for him.” She texted, “I’m not leaving my house with your pets hanging around, watching my every move.” Bridget read her reply to us and I laughed as

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

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
