Nathan:
My eyes widened at the sight of the King of the Sea, in the enchanted forest.
In the five years I’ve been here, the king has NEVER made himself visible for any of us to see, though I sometimes knew that he paid his sister a visit, he never bothered show himself to us, he never needed to.
“King Deniz” I bowed lowering my head, knowing the consequence of challenging a king like himself, it was worse than choosing death, the nature kings and queens, even Queen Alaura, who was the nicest and kindest of them all, was known to be vicious when disrespected, my heart raced as I looked at my mate who was now probably having a mental battle of her own after seeing her father, the man who she had never seen in her life, standing in front of her.
“You have taken well care of my daughter, Prince Nathan” he said softly, I rose and wrapped my arm around my mate who instinctively leaned into my touch, hiding in my embrace from the ki
Kiara:“What have you found out? Maybe I can help you…” Queen Beatrice asked smiling at us, I felt the blood drain from my face as I looked at the woman who could have been betraying her mate and kingdom, the way she stood there speaking to her son so calmly, the possibility that she was innocent was there, but why would the King of the Sea be lying about a matter like this one? Especially to the prince about his mother.“Nothing mother, it concerns my mate and I, don’t worry your head about it” Nathan said softly, looking her in the eye, he slowly cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead before taking my hand in his and pulling me inside with him, the queen raised an eyebrow at us but didn’t comment on what Nathan said.“Nathan?” I whispered, but he didn’t answer as we both walked toward our chamber, his eyes fixed in front of him as he had a mental battle of his own, knowing that he was being forced
It had been years since the prince had found his mate, and he had to admit that he was the happiest he’s ever been, his princess had given him more contentment and love than he’d ever thought possible.“Love” Nathan smiled at Kiara who was cradling their baby beside the child’s crib, sitting on the chair beside it, despite the prince and his princess being together for five years, they weren’t in a rush about having their first child and were always cautious whenever being intimate, but after they got married a year ago, they both decided that they were ready to become parents and they were lucky to have their first daughter, Lilian, a few months ago.“Morning” Kiara smiled at her husband and mate who just woke up, she had been awake for an hour already, Lilian needed to be fed and decided that it was a proper time to start crying, when the sun started rising and Kiara didn’t want to wake Nathan as he had stayed up
Nathan:“Where is my beautiful niece?” Elijah asked taking Lilian from Kiara who giggled being excited to see her uncle, Kiara laughed and kissed her brother’s cheek before hugging Nina who was standing beside her husband, their twin son and daughter standing beside her, they were now almost three years old.I kneeled down and kissed Jasmine then Jasper who laughed when my scruff tickled his cheek, I lifted him in my arms as Kiara carried Jasmine in hers, hugging her and kissing her forehead.“No love for us?” Ashton asked entering the dining room, opening his arms for his niece who Kiara had put down to run into her uncle’s arms before Grace hugged Kiara, I put Jasper down cupping my beautiful sister’s cheeks and kissing her forehead, Ashton wrapped his arms around Kiara hugging her tightly.I hugged both Elijah and Ashton after Grace took Lilian in her arms “where is Mayla?” I asked only to feel my p
Kiara:“Don’t worry darling, no one will know of this conversation” I told the old woman as I left her house, it was one of the many houses that were afraid of King Ned, the werewolf king, finding out about our conversation with them, I couldn’t blame them, the last time the king found out about his people seeking for his son’s help, they paid the price with their lives, or their loved ones lives, they didn’t want to go through that pain again, and I couldn’t force them to, but they needed help, and us knowing what they needed was the only way we could provide it.“Princess, it’s getting dark, we need to head back before anyone sees you roaming the street at night, you know how it is when women walk around at night in these kingdoms” Daniel said looking at me, I nodded as he was indeed right, it had been two years since this land lost its safety, the people were no longer safe to walk around or speak as they p
Nathan:“WHERE ARE THEY?” We heard yelling in the castle, I looked at the princes who all frowned in confusion, motioning for the girls to remain seated as me, Ashton, Elijah, and Sebastian stood up to face my father who stormed into the throne room, rage drawn on his face.“Who the bloody hell do you think you are?” King Alexander, who walked inside behind father followed by King Louis, all of them having the same anger in their eyes.“Great, all we’re missing is King Midas, and we’ll have a battle between the kings and their children” Elijah commented sarcastically “we should be asking you what the hell do you think you’re doing? And how dare you barge into our place the way you did?”“Do not forget your limit Elijah” King Alexander warned.“I do believe that you are forgetting your limits, your majesties, this is a home, and none of you have the right to storm in
Kiara:“Why is all this happening?” I asked no one in particular once we reached The Enchanted Forest and were inside my and Nathan’s house, Queen Idalia and Queen Alaura sitting on the couch in front of Nathan and I, King Deniz and King Zephyr sitting on the dining table with Elijah, Ashton, and Sebastian, while Grace, Nina, and Celine sat in front of the fireplace with Jasper, Jasmine, and Mayla, it was one of the rare times where we saw the kings and queens in one place, Queen Alaura’s enchanted forest wasn’t a place where they would usually gather up as they had their differences with the queen since she was born, them blaming her for the death of their mother who passed away giving birth to her, but right now they were throwing that aside for some reason.“Because dearest niece, you have declared war against the kings of the kingdoms” King Zephyr answered me, his silver eyes looking into mine as he spoke, his hair was made
Kiara:I wrapped my arms around Nathan, who was looking at the fires which were dancing in the fireplace, from behind making him sigh in contentment and lean into my touch, his chest slowly rising and falling as he breathed before he turned around to face me, his eyes meeting mine.“Want to tell me what’s gotten my love’s mind racing?” I asked him softly, my finger running over his chest making him chuckle.“Where do I begin? The fact that we were forced to flee our home, father and the other kings on for our lives, or the fact that we are at war with the kingdoms” Nathan asked giving me the best smile he could muster “the list could go on”“I know my love, I was trying to lighten up the mood, I’m sorry” I said giving him a soft smile, he sighed and wrapped his arms around me hugging me tightly, I hugged him back, laying my head on his chest listening to his soft beating heart, knowing that
Nathan:I smiled as I looked at my mate who was asleep in my arms, her body worn out from our long night, she collapsed after our last round, her body no longer able to take any more of it.I looped my fingers through her soft, long curls, smiling when I heard her sigh in contentment muttering an ‘I love you Nathan’ in her sleep, she was too cute for her own good it always amazed me.“I love you too my sweet beauty” I whispered to my sleeping beauty, knowing that she couldn’t possibly hear me in the state that she was in, but the fact that I could say it freely to her was something that I loved, she was my beauty and was the one person who brought me sanity through all the hell battles I was going through with my parents who were forgetting every bit of humanity they ever had, it saddened me that they’ve reached to this point, being blinded by a throne which was literally a chair, fearing that I might turn like them one day, I
