Kiara:
I waited outside with Daniel and Diana, holding Lilian in my arms as she fell asleep a while after we went out.
It wasn’t until Celine came out running toward me like her life depended on it that my eyes widened and I realized that them still being inside didn’t mean that they were enjoying their time, no, it meant that they were eating one another apart.
“Kiara, you need to go inside, Nathan is going to do something bad…”
“What?”
“I’ll explain everything later, but we need to go inside and stop Nathan before he ends up shifting and attacking King Alexander” Celine said looking at me, my eyes widened and I handed Lilian to Diana whose eyes were wide.
“Diana, should anything stir and you see that it is dangerous to stay, go back to the castle” I said looking at Diana who opened her mouth to speak “Daniel, they’re in your care”
“Princ
Third Person Point Of View:“Why did you tell them Alexander? We needed them on our side, now how are we going to do that now” Queen Beatrice asked the king angrily, her eyes glaring at her lover, Princess Delilah was standing beside the king who wrapped his arm around her, holding her close to him.“I would not have let the princess lay her hand on my daughter, if you would have allowed it, I wouldn’t have, she’s lucky that I did not break her hand when she raised it, but her older brother saved her anyway” King Alexander said looking at the queen, the queen had to fight back rolling her eyes, she knew the rules about being a queen and a royalty lady, she must be disciplined despite not wanting to, she did not approve of what had happened between her children, but she could not blame them, she would not admit it loudly, but she knew that what she was doing was wrong, but she had her reasons for hating being with King Ned, he might h
Nathan:I never thought that reaching the castle could mean heaven to me.I had witnessed the worst thing I could ever think of, my mother was a mistress of the vampire king, she had a daughter from him too, a daughter who father had raised for seventeen years, had taken all her mood swings, had cared for, tutored, and loved, he gave her everything he could, and yet, she was not even his daughter.How things had reached to what they have was not something I could understand, it hurt me, a lot more than I could’ve ever thought, losing my father first, finding out that mother was a cheater, finding out that through all these years she didn’t even care about her husband’s relationship, I didn’t even want to know what else she was doing behind everyone’s back, this was way too much for me to handle, I didn’t even want to think of anything else.“Diana, take the children to their nurseries, let them bathe and go to sle
Kiara:I woke up to Nathan drawing patterns on my lower back with his finger.“Good morning beautiful” Nathan said softly, obviously noticing my change of breathing patterns as I woke up, Nathan’s arms tightened around me before he kissed the crown of my head.“Morning” I whispered laying in a more comfortable position beside my husband, having been laying on top of him, literally, I laid down beside him before laying my head on his chest, his arms not loosening around me “when did you wake up?”“About an hour ago” Nathan said softly, I pulled away to look him in the eye, dark circles had formed under his exhausted eyes from crying, he had cried himself to sleep last night, though for some reason he refused to let me go as he slept, it was as if he was afraid that I would be running away, and thankfully, Lilian got a full night of sleep last night, she didn’t wake us up when we fell asleep.
Nathan:“You and your wife have completely lost your minds” Celine said glaring at Kiara and I, she held her belly with her hand, which was growing in size by the day as her and Sebastian’s child grew inside her, the baby’s heartbeat was calm despite his ranting mother who was trying to compose herself for the sake of her child.“Do you expect us to leave the king to do what he’s doing Celine, or do you expect to sign a treaty?” I asked Celine raising an eyebrow at her, trying to read her expression which not only looked annoyed, but worried.“Bloody hell no, I do not, and will not stand by you if you do so” Celine said looking me in the eye, I raised an eyebrow at her, as did Kiara “they killed the two kings Nathan, your father, and mine”“Pardon?” I asked frowning, Grace tensed as she looked at Celine who avoided our eyes, my own eyes widened as I heard the words that left her
Chapter 81Nathan:“Prince Nathan!” Daniel said walking inside the throne room, he bowed to all of us before straightening to look at me “the guard woke up, he is asking to see you”Daniel’s words had my eyes widen as I felt my heart race in anticipation, wanting to know what had happened when father had died, what had happened to the man himself, how he was shot, how the kings had died, what mother had done, all these questions swarmed my mind making me feel like a heavy weight had been thrown on top of my shoulders.I looked at Kiara who nodded at me to go, she knew that I wanted to listen to whatever the guard had to say on my own, she respected that and I was happy that she did, Grace walked toward me and I raised an eyebrow at her, but she raised hers at me making me fight back shaking my head at her, but she didn’t bother waiting as she walked toward the door of the throne room, clearly letting me know that she wa
Kiara:“Well, you can’t expect us to sit here and do nothing” Nina said the second we were sure that everyone was out of earshot.“Very funny Nina, have you never met us?” Ashton asked the girl who smirked raising an eyebrow at him, wanting to know what he had in mind.“We may be royalty, but our old ways won’t simply change because of a stupid title” I said sitting cross legged on the chair which I sat on looking at our eldest brother who was smirking, his eyes holding a hint of amusement “what Elijah? Tell us, which stick is shoved up your bum?”“None, but I do find it amusing that you are all calm in front of your husband or wife, and now you’re planning on doing something ‘behind the scenes’” Elijah said raising an eyebrow at me making me smile and shake my head.“You do know that none of them is thinking straight right now and that they need our hel
Nathan:“Don’t you even think about it Kiara” I snapped at Kiara for suggesting that she and her siblings to leave the kingdom to go and see King Deniz, my eyes widening at her as she looked at me, her eyes somewhat avoiding mine as she knew that I would not approve of this, how could she even think of something like this when the kingdom was literally on the verge of war.“Nathan! Come on you know that the king can help, he can suggest something, plus we’ll be in the kingdom of The Sea, it’s not like we haven’t been there before, and you know that it is safe” Kiara said looking at me as I paced our chamber, I glared at her making her shy back, knowing that she was asking me for something that I would not be approving of, especially at a time like this, no she wasn’t my prisoner here, I would never treat her as so, but if her safety was on the line, then she was not going anywhere.“I said no Kiara, don
Kiara:“Why the hell not?” Elijah snapped at me when he found out that I wouldn’t be joining them to go and see King Deniz, after what had happened last night, how broken Nathan looked, I was NOT going to put him through any worry or pain about me leaving him or about anything happening to me.“Elijah, he doesn’t want me to go, and I won’t pressure him when he’s in this much pain, please don’t ask me any more questions on the subject” I said looking at my eldest brother who frowned in confusion, me, Elijah, Ashton, and Nina were all sitting in my chamber after Nathan had left to tend to his duties of the kingdom, the peace treaty was yet to arrive, but he had things to take care of, and he wanted to keep himself busy instead of thinking through the whole day.Elijah got up and nodded at me to follow him, I raised an eyebrow and looked at Nina who nodded at me to follow him to the veranda which I did, Elijah w
