After Sei finished comforting me from the aftermath of the trainwreck of reality that hit me, I finally got enough strength to go freshen up in the bathroom while he spent some time by himself. Just like me, it was pretty clear that his mind was in shambles and he was probably waiting for Silas so they could discuss the problem.Silas did eventually return while I was still soaked in the large bathtub. I could hear his deep voice. It made me feel all sorts of things. Hearing him saying my name was the best part of all... Although I did not like it when he lost his temper. He seemed to do that a lot too."We need to comfort her." Sei said. I stepped out of the bathtub and wrapped a towel around my body, listening to their conversation. I had no doubt that they knew that I was listening but I didn't care. I needed to hear what Silas thought about this whole thing."What's wrong?" He asked softly, the sound of his footsteps heading towards the closet. "She think she will die.""We won't
When dinner ended, the twins kissed me goodnight and everyone else went their separate ways for the night. I was stuck with Sapphire for a couple of hours and I felt a tad bit uncomfortable with her."Oh stop being so tense, I don't bite." She told me for the third time. We were standing outside, sorting out the area where the competition would take place. Sofia was busy inside with the food, maids and other stuff.I relaxed my shoulders, giving the vampire a tight lipped smile. Her telling me that she did not bite was not helping at all because I knew from the marks on Damien's body that it was not true. As much as I would like to question her about him, it was not my place to do so. I'm already disliked by the first wife, it's better to stay in Sapphire's good books.I might need her someday."I'm okay," I told her, looking around the large empty field. The moonlight shone brightly, allowing me to see everything clearly. "What are we here to do?""I'm here to command people to decor
It took only a couple of minutes for Sei to get me from the spot I was standing on outside. By then, the screaming had ceased but still kind of haunted my mind when I went to bed. I wondered what Alexander did to those girls and if they were even still alive. Silas groaned softly, turning his body to face mine . His arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer to his cold body. His skin just lightly glimmered in the dark, reflecting the gibbous moon that shone through the window. "Why aren't you sleeping?" He asked me softly, rubbing my hips soothingly.As much as I would like to keep what Sapphire said a secret, I learnt the pretty hard way that it wasn't going to end well."Sapphire said something to me that got me thinking." I whispered to him. "Was she drunk?" Silas asked me, slipping his hand underneath my shirt."Tipsy, I think. She said that there's a chance that Alexander may be my soulmate." I said quickly, closing my eyes tightly and bracing myself for the Silas bomb to
"Welcome, leader of house Valedria, leader of all vampires." Sapphire greeted, bowing her head respectfully. A tall man stood proud, red eyes staring down at her with a small smile. His equally red suit was ironed and fitted to perfect, multiple badges and ribbons on it showing the man's status and power."Sapphire, how are the demons treating you?" He asked, looking around the dining room while running his hand over his slicked back black hair. All of the guests had finally arrived while the twins and I were in the bedroom and Kaiser had to come and get us again. Fortunately he didn't barge inside the room or else he would have walked in on a lot of nasty things going on.Like me and the twins making love.I blushed hard at the thought of the two men working their way with me. The way they caressed my body and touched all of the right areas. It was like they knew my body more than I did, and they made me feel undescribable pleasure.If I had known they would do that to me, I wouldn'
My stomach plummeted to the ground when Sofia excitedly announced that the remaining five contestants were about to fight to the death. My eyes darted between the twins and Alexander and my brows furrowed in worry. This was not going to end well at all."If the contestants wish, they may surrender in the middle of the match, meaning an automatic disqualification. The last one standing wins the crown." At that moment, the vampire leader, Valedria placed a black box on an empty space on a table and opened it. Gently, as if he were holding a fragile talisman, he pulled out a beautiful black crown. I stared at it in awe. I have never seen one such as that, it was absolutely stunning. My heart thumped loudly in my chest when he reached back into the box and pulled an identical one."For the new queen, should there be one." Valedria said, placing it carefully next to the other. I looked at the field, watching Alexander staring at the crowns with a large grin spread out on his face. The t
Hundreds of different coloured eyes looked back at us, at me, with different emotions. Shock, pity, disgust, anger. There was a lot but not one of them were what I wanted to see. I had done it, the one thing that I was not supposed to expose, I did. I did it during the worst time too, where every single creature was here, surrounding me. They knew it now. I was human and this human was in a relationship with two of their hybrids and falling for their vampire. This is beyond terrible.The silence that stretched through the whole place was deafening and it made matters worse for me. I preferred it when all of these scary creatures growled and spoke, then at least I would know what they were thinking.Right now, I had no idea what they were thinking...'lets kill her?' 'eat her?''make her a slave?''kill her mates?'All of the possibilities ended with me being six feet under, whether in a coffin or in a sewer after I was eaten and excreted out. I was a gone woman.Valedria stood up,
"So you just want want us to go back there unarmed and kill Valedria? He's the most powerful vampire on our island." Silas said, shaking his head. "We need a better way, so we can protect ourselves." I told them, sitting down next to Alexander. "We have a lot of creatures on our side. Our parents..." Alexander started before the door opened, Sei walking in with a face full of rage. He glared at Alexander hatefully, "you mean our parents." He spat.Alexander furrowed his brows, "Goliath and my mom—""He's not your father. Your father is trying to kill us!" Sei spat, making me stare at Alexander in shock.Valedria is his father...Why am I not surprised?"Yeah well, Goliath isn't your father either. Your father abandoned you for his pack." Alexander answered with gritted teeth.Okay, this isn't good at all."He showed up at the competition and didn't do so much as to blink at you or Sofia. He just sat there amongst the other heads and smiled proudly. No wonder his name is Nazi." Alexa
Silas and I got back inside and I immediately headed to the kitchen. I had not eaten anything since we left the island. I needed a bunch of energy. In all honesty, this situation with my parents was difficult to even think about. I haven't spoken a single word to them ever since I finished college and cut ties with them for good. I wanted nothing to do with the both of them. They were in love, just not with me.Last I checked, which was over five years ago, they had a great relationship. They often went on dates together when they weren't at the military base. They bought each other presents and had luxury getaways whenever the opportunity came. In the mix of all of that romance, I was born. I was an unplanned baby, a mistake. My two parents never failed to remind me that everyday.From when I was just a toddler, I picked up the sense that I was not favoured. I never got what I wanted, only what I needed. My parents intended to raise a genius, that way I could get some sort of schola
"What exactly happened that's making you panic so much?" Alexander asked, pulling the door of the carriage open with a small yawn."I think your mother tried to speak to me through mind link. I don't know how but I heard many voices screaming for help. I think something has happened back home." I explained, tying my hair back. I looked into the distance, the pale moon just barely lighting over the land.As soon as Sei had asked me what was wrong, I rushed up and packed everything. Silas woke Alexander up, and he was not pleased to be interupted from whatever he was doing in his room."What if you were dreaming?" Alexander grumbled. I glared at him as I shoved my bag inside. "What's with you? Clearly you don't want to leave."Silas smirked, "He's sad that I walked in on him pounding into his little human."I shuddered when the image formed in my head. I did not need to know that.Alexander frowned but didn't say anything, keeping his eyes on the ground. I pursed my lips and suddenly re
Sei took a deep breath and held Elder Norabi's hand. I bit my lower lip in anticipation. This would be the moment of truth. Sei was going to walk out of these packlands holding someones hand. Was it mine, or Daffodils?I looked at Daffodil, seeing her as nervous as I was. Her leg bounced up and down continuously. Sei looked at her and she gave him a smile that was meant to be reassuring. It wasn't, she just seemed even more worried.I would also be scared if I were her. Without Sei, she had no reason to live in the palace. She only lived with us because he was her boyfriend. She would have to find her own place to live. She would be by herself."Sei, may I look through your memories."Sei nodded, "Yes."Elder Norabi closed her eyes for a few minutes, humming in understanding. "You've been through a lot with your brother. It is no surprise you're so confused with everything.""It's been a journey." Sei said with a nod. "Even looking back at my own memories, I still can't believe it.""
It turns out that we did not need to wait long.Alpha Nazari's mother arrived sooner than we expected, way before dinnertime for the rest of the pack. That was great news for me because I didn't want to overstay my welcome."Goodness, I had heard that our queen was beautiful but this is far beyond my expectations." The old lady said, smiling widely. I thanked her for the compliment with a grin, and held her hand in respect. I nearly stumbled back from the amount of power I felt from her. She was very old, even needing a walking stick to help her, but she had the strength of an alpha. "Thank you so much for getting here so soon. I'm sorry if we caused you any inconvenience." I said softly. She waved my words off, "Nonsense! I'm glad that you came by. My name is Norabi, but everyone calls me Elder. I was the packs luna before my son and his wife." "It's lovely to meet you." I said honestly, "I'm sure you already know me and Alexander. This is Sei." I said, turning to show her Sei, wh
Morning soon arrived, and the strange horses made their way back to us. We got up, ate some sandwiches that had been packed for us and freshened up by a nearby stream. When all was packed and ready, our journey to the packlands continued.Another day later, we finally arrived to the Alphas territory. To say it was beautiful was an understatement. It was nearly as perfect as my very own palace.The land was flat and clear of trees, except for the surrounding packlands. Many cute cabins surrounded the area and in the middle of the massive piece of land, stood a mansion I would have never been able to afford back on earth.Our carriage pulled up in front of this mansion, and a tall man walked out from the long double doors to greet us. He wore a fitted grey suit, and his dark hair was pushed back. I could feel power radiating from him, and by how Sei looked at him with hatred, I knew exactly who this was."Alpha Nazari, it is good to see you." I greeted, shaking his hand. His grip was al
Silas threw the tent at Sei and turned to dig for another, his eyebrows furrowing after a few seconds. "Huh," he said softly and turned to the rest of us."There's only one tent." He said. Alexander untied the horse-looking creatures and let them go, "Go hunt and rest. Be back here as soon as morning arrives."The creatures huffed and sprinted away. He sure had a lot of trust in those things. What if they decided not to return?Sei looked at Silas as he untied the tent, "Well, we'll have to share this one. The rest can try and fit in the carriage.""It should fit at least five people." Daffodil stated. Sei nodded, "People, not supernaturals. We are much bigger than human men. I think only three of us will fit, that's only because Akielia and Daffodil are already small in size."So, two guys had to sleep in the carriage together."I'll be sleeping with Akielia." Silas said, reaching for the tent. He snatched it from Sei and started setting it up. A flash of thunder caught my attentio
I watched outside my bedroom window as a carriage was loaded up with our belongings, preparing for our departure to the Nazari Packgrounds. My eyes moved back down to the map in front of me. It was a two day trip in a carriage with two horses, and almost a week long trip on foot. Half a day on a car. "I miss my Porsche," I mumbled. There was a number of things I missed about my old life. Such as the delicious food I left behind, and the pretty fashion we were exposed to. I definitely took those for granted. Here, I was expected to dress like a queen in big uncomfortable dresses, tight shoes and perfect hair. Only when I was training, could I wear something more comfortable. Let's not even get started on the food here. The most normal thing they have is blue potatoes. The door opened and Alexander walked in. I hadn't been sleeping in here, and I knew that everyone else had noticed. Surely, everyone was aware about Silas and I, and I had no doubt that the Heads would want to meet u
"You know, I mean it when I say you didn't cheat. Maybe in human terms you did, but in supernatural laws, you didn't." Silas said to me, peering at me.It was the next morning since Silas and I escaped to go to the lake. I was fully recovered and spending time outside to get some fresh air. Silas was with me as a bodyguard...And my lover."How so?" I asked him."We didn't decide to break up. When two mates verbally agree to become a couple, they kind of seal their bond. A verbal agreement doesn't strengthen or weaken it. It just acts as a seal, the cherry on top. Like when humans get engaged, they seal it with a ring." Silas explained. I nodded in understanding."You and I never broke that seal, meaning that even in my death, you and I were together. Unless we both told each other that we were broken up, we are together." I pursed my lips and wondered why Sei didn't tell me. He never said anything about breaking a supernatural seal. Did that mean he was still my boyfriend, too?"The
"Where have you been?"I stared at the crackling fire in front of me, my hands held out towards it as I warmed up my body. Alexander crossed his arms at me in expectance, but I didn't look at him. I didn't want him to detect my dishonesty."What do you mean?" I asked him after clearing my throat. "I've been here."He looked around my office before stepping closer to me. He fell on one knee to reach meet my level since I was sitting on the floor, wrapped in a thick blanket. I was finally starting to warm up, and I could feel my powers slowly strengthening.I guess extreme cold is my weakness."I checked this place a million times." Alexander pointed out, his eyes turning black. It usually happened whenever he was hungry, but I knew that he was still full after he had fed from that human he was so obsessed with. I wonder if she's transferred to the wolfpack yet.I wanted to speak to her."Are you deaf? She said she was right here." Silas said from the corner of the room. Alexander and
"Four, five!""One, two, three, four, five!""One more time.""...two, three, four."I felt a continuous pressure over my chest, my body immediately responding as I felt everything I had consumed leave my mouth. I turned to the side as water ran through my throat, and I threw it all up. I coughed loudly, my senses slowly returning to me. I could feel a warm hand running over my shoulders, attempting to comfort me.I opened my eyes, seeing nothing but darkness. "My rose, are you alright?" I heard Silas ask me quickly. I was lifted up and placed against a solid chest. I had no doubt that it belonged to him.A gust of cold wind stroked my drying skin, making me shiver."Her lips are blue. We need to get her back home immediately." I heard someone else speak. I also recognized the voice, but I was surprised to hear him here."Sei?" I asked weakly. I barely saw him kneel in front of me and he held my hand. "I'm here." He said softly, brushing my wet hair off my face."What happened?" I ask
