Everyone was gathered in the lycan throne room discussing a plan of action to find Jessica.“What I don’t understand is why would Torvald release Jessica only to abduct her months later?” Wynn raised his opinion.“It does not make sense, I agree,” Deacon said.‘Jovita,’ hear Jessica’s mind link and looked at Deacon, who felt Jessica’s fear a split second before it went away again.“Why is she mind linking you and not me?” Deacon questioned.“It is a trap,” Juno said, having heard Jessica’s plead for help through Jovita.“What does Torvald hope to achieve?” Deacon questioned, frustrated.***“What is your plan? Why did you compel me to abduct Jessica the moment I have her alone?” Michael spat.“It took you long enough,” Torvald said. “You may go and tell them that if they want Jessica, they have to send only her parents.”“What do you want with her parents?” Michael questioned, making his way out of the room that was part of a bigger mansion where Torvald has been hiding, using the hum
“Please be safe,” Soroya cried, saying goodbye to Ondrink.“You have nothing to fear. We are seventeen shamans and nine Shamikas. He does not stand a chance,” Ondrink assured her with a kiss. After agreeing to a plan, Deacon and most of the higher council went ahead to surround the location where Torvald was holding Jessica captive. Jovita cried in silence on their way to where Torvald wanted them to meet him, her mind raising with bad memories.FLASHBACKThe door opened and a tall, strong-looking man without hair walked out with an unconscious woman over his shoulders. “You can take her in.”“Go inside then,” the maid said, and Princess Jovita fearfully obeyed.“Come, hop on to the bed,” King Torvald said, padding his hand on the bed, licking his lips, catching the scent of the wolf, enticing him.Princess Jovita jumped onto the bed against her will and before she even had a chance to be scared, the King sunk his teeth into her neck.‘How is this even possible? Vampires cannot drink
They walked up the stairs to the front door of the mansion, the door already open, Michael leading the way. In the living room, the family of the mansion was having dinner as if nothing was wrong, clearly compelled."Brother, you may leave and tell Deacon to take the higher council and leave or no one will make it out alive,” Torvald said, making it clear that he knew that Deacon and the higher council were around.“The two of you don’t bother trying to mind link anyone,” Torvald chuckled. “Follow me, Jovita. Juno, you enjoy a meal with my lovely host.”Juno tried to ignore his request but was not able to. He put his hand on his chest and realized his shaman necklace was already off.“Looking for this?” Torvald chuckled, holding up two shaman necklaces.Juno took a seat at the table and watched Jovita take Torvald’s hand. Torvald kissed her hand, his eyes on hers. “I have been waiting a long, long time to have you again,” he said, sending cold shivers down her spine.Torvald led Jovit
‘Jovita, my darling. Can you shift and attack him? Is Jessica, ok?’ Juno tried to mind link Jovita but got no response. It reminded him of about a century ago, when they were in the same situation. JUNO’S FLASHBACK CONTINUE Prince Juno went silent for a moment. “Princess Jovita?” She forced her eyes open and looked around her, hoping that he will see what she was seeing, bruised woman and wolves. She looked at the buildings and the entrance of the compound, the mountains, that were barely visible with only the moonlight that brought light to the dark earth, trying to see as much as possible. Jovita heard the voice in her head and wondered who it was. ‘Is that Prince Mano?’ “I don’t think I am getting through,” Juno said to them, but then he gasped for air. “This is bad.” “What do you see?” Ondrink asked. “Nothing. I have not already seen myself,” Princess Jenny said, tears flowing down her face. “Shh, something is happening,” Prince Juno tried to focus. Princess Jenny also lin
‘Think Juno, think,’ Juno thought and returned to his memories, searching for any clue on how to get out of this situation.JUNO’S FLASHBACKBy the time they arrived at the castle, the day walkers were already asleep.“It is important. I am sure they won't mind being woken up,” Prince Juno said.“Trust me, you don’t wake them up for anything,” Shysie said, coming out of nowhere, wondering what was so urgent, suspecting it had something to do with Princess Jovita.‘Well, they don’t seem to recognize me, so perhaps it is something else,’ Shysie thought to herself.“Perhaps the Vampire King could be of help?” Shysie suggested.“That might actually be a good idea, as it is your kind. We are seeking help against,” Prince Juno started to explain.“My kind?” Shysie interrupted, knowing what he was about to say, but played dumb.“A nest of vampires and hybrids has abducted Princess Jovita and a few other lycans. Most likely Prince Mano as well,” Prince Juno explained.“What? How do you know t
Torvald led Jovita out of the room, and it got her thinking. ‘How stupid we were back then to think he was the one that saved me.’FLASHBACKPrincess Jovita put her head side to side, filled with fear, hearing the voice of the enchantress. She does not remember anything that had happened to her and how she got to where she was. She does not understand why she can’t find her voice and was too scared to open her eyes.“Princess Jovita, I am King Torvald, and you are saved now,” King Torvald untied her after the enchantress left.King Torvald picked her naked body up and felt her wrapping her hands around his neck. He speeds back to the castle and arrived before daybreak.“It was overwhelming, but I managed to save her. I will have to hunt down the vampires another time. She is in a poor state,” King Torvald said when he walked into the vampire throne room where Princess Jovita’s family was waiting, never leaving to get sleep.“Jovita!” Princess Jenny exclaimed, crying and snuggling her
Jovita wondered how the rest of her life would be on the arm of Torvald and reminded herself that he was not a monster all the time.FLASHBACKOnce the door was shut, King Torvald pressed his lips onto Princess Jovita’s. Princess Jovita felt appalled and wanted it at the same time.“I can smell you; you are ready to receive my child, my little wolf,” King Torvald said, gathering the nightdress, and pulling it to her waistline.Princess Jovita wanted to push him off her but at the same time, she wanted him. ‘Why do I feel I love this man but at the same time I hate him?’Conflicted, she wrapped her arms around him and allowed him to touch her body. King Torvald kissed her and gently explored her body, unlike the violent way he treated her at the compound. He stopped for a moment and sped over to his bedroom door and locked it.On his way back to his bed, he took his clothes off. “I will make love to you, my little wolf,” he said, smiling, knowing she does not remember what he did to he
“Get out of my house!” the man shouted the moment he was released from the compelling sending both Torvald and Shysie flung out of the house through the front door that they came in.“What have you done?” Torvald spat at Shysie when they hit an invisible wall.Ondrink could not believe the timing. “Just in time.”“I got you, you bastard,” Deacon laughed, even though he was filled with anger.“I didn’t do anything. It must be something the shamans did,” Shysie defended herself, wanting her bread and butter on both sides.“Let Shysie go. She has nothing to do with my actions,” Torvald said, wanting Shysie free, knowing she will be his only hope of escaping again.“I know, since she is working with us,” Deacon said. “Shysie, you are free to leave.”Relieved, Shysie stepped out of the spell wall but not before winking at Torvald, that went unnoticed by everyone around.“Ondrink, go inside and wipe the family’s mind clean,” Deacon ordered. “Shysie, you go clean up any traces of the superna
Every year, when Prince Deacon left for a few days for the higher council, Emily will not follow. When he did not return on his last visit, she got worried and went to find out what was up and if he was ok. Even though she was heartbroken that he found a mate again, she was happy for him. A bit cross about the way he went about it, but nonetheless she was glad that he had a fated mate. Word reached her a few weeks later that his mate Jessica was abducted, and she came to the rescue. She did not expect for her and Deacon to end up making love again, but they did. When Deacon claimed Jessica a few months later, Emily was broken up and ended up in Prince Mano's bed. Present day. (Read Chapter 179 for a recap) After Prince Deacon stormed into Prince Mano's room and caught them in bed together, followed by Prince Mano attacking Prince Deacon, Emily decided to leave them to it. “I am not doing this,” Emily said and left the room. Emily went to her own room, which she has not been in for a
"Why would he betray me? How is he even alive?" Prince Deacon asked, not believing that Kerraelas betrayed him. 'I don't know why or how. I knew he was not dead, but I don't know why he gave your parents the information,' Wynn mind linked. "My mother killed, -never mind, I see he is still alive." Prince Deacon was about to tell Wynn that his mother killed the Shaman but then he saw in Wynn's mind that they made contact. "Where is he?" Prince Deacon asked, wanting to know where the shaman was. "I told him to go to the nearest town North," Wynn said, finally able to speak. "Guess he didn't listen," Prince Deacon said, pointing at the wolf they both recognize as the Shaman in full wolf form. The shaman finally regained his strength and managed to complete his shift. Wynn took the backpack off his back and took out his spare pants and threw it at the Shaman. The Shaman shifted and put the pants on. "I think the neighbor just saw me do that," the Shaman said, looking at Princess B
Two of Queen Lana’s guards ran into the house and force him outside.“Let me die with her!” Prince Deacon demanded, trying to get back into the house.In the distance, you could hear the fire brigade. Prince Deacon knew that there was nothing saving the house or Emily now.The Shaman pretend to be dead for as long as he could and started to crawl out of the burning house, towards the kitchen, hoping that it had a back door like all houses.With his hand on his throat, he started to run through the backyard before climbing over the first wall. ‘That b*tch, I have been serving here for over a millennium and she just tried to kill me as if I am nothing? I will end her,’ the Shaman vowed, ‘but first I need to survive; I need to find Wynn.’ The Shaman went rogue the moment his throat was slit so that Queen Lana and the pack will think him dead.The shaman took out his phone and called Wynn but he was barely able to speak so he put the phone down again and tried to type with one hand while
“There you are. What is that face for?” Prince Deacon asked, when he came into the room, Emily standing with just a towel around her. Prince Deacon had a bunch of red roses in one hand and a guy that looked in his mid-thirties next to him.“Go wait downstairs,” Prince Deacon ordered the guy.“I am not hungry,” Emily said, knowing the guy was to feed on.“But today is your feeding day,” Prince Deacon said, laying the roses down on the vanity table before turning to Emily, and putting his hands on her shoulders, “what is wrong?”“Just thinking about how you have no children and deserve to have children,” Emily said, her eyes sad. Emily decided not to tell him about Wynn’s phone call, knowing he will just make them go on the run and she does not want him to spend his life on the run.“Do you want children?” Prince Deacon asked with a frown.“Does it matter since I can't have any?” Emily asked.“We can get a surrogate,” Prince Deacon reminded her of the time period they live in.“Forget I
The year 2000 and something “I thought you were dead,” Queen Lana said, sitting up on her royal throne when she saw an old acquaintance. “Kerraelas, old friend,” King Makens said, standing up from his throne to greet his Raven friend that looked as young as he does. After the embrace, King Makens signaled his servants to come closer. “What do you want to drink? Are you hungry?” “I am not staying long,” Kerraels said. “Where have you been all this time?” Queen Lana asked. “Does it matter?” Kerraels asked. “What brings you here? A warning? What has your foresight shown to you?” King Makens asked, looking at the serious expression on Kerraels' face. “I have seen many things to come,” Kerraels said. “I heard someone sighted you,” Queen Amirah said, walking in, Prince Andre at her side. “Queen Amirah,” Kerraels said, taking her hand and kissing it. “Prince Andre, how is hybrid life treating you?” Kerraels turned his attention to Prince Andre and shook his hand. “It has its perks
Princess Freda realized that she will have to hide out for a while and birth her children first before attempting to find Emily so she slowly made her way to the nearest harbor to board a ship to Europe and from there it was slow and hot, uncomfortable journey to Egypt. Even though she knew it was risky staying at Queen Zuberi’s palace, she didn’t know where else to go and luckily for her, the palace still carried Gabriella’s spell. Princess Freda was well taken care of by Queen Zuberi’s servants, none of them knowing that Queen Zuberi was dead and she thought it best not to enlighten them, for the sake of her twins. A few months later she gave birth to two healthy babies and instead of finding Emily, she decided it can wait as there was a raging human World War Two going on and the last thing she wanted is to get caught in the crossfire leaving her children without a mother. She was not sure if they were like King Lowe or King Thorvald and knew it will still be a few years before she
‘No!’ Princess thought. ‘King Thorvald is bringing Phoebe over to you,’ Princess Freda mind linked King Lowe desperately. ‘What?’ King Lowe mind linked her back as the door to his cell opened. “She is ripe. Try not to kill her, you don’t want to upset your mate,” King Thorvald laughed, ripping Phoebe’s made-shift dress off her, making her gasp. “Don’t do this,” King Lowe pleaded, smelling Phoebe, feeling his animal instinct ripping through him uncontrollably as he shifted into his werewolf form as the moon reached the tower. “Go on, have s*x with him,” King Thorvald compelled Phoebe before leaving. “No, stay away,” King Lowe yelled. ‘Please control yourself, think about me, please don’t hurt her,’ Princess Freda pleaded in a mind link. ‘She will have to kill me,’ King Lowe mind linked Princess Freda back. ‘There must be another way,’ Princess Freda pleaded. "We claimed each other. Is our bond not strong enough?" 'On a full moon, werewolves can't control themselves,' King Lowe
“How are my two love birds doing?” King Thorvald asked, walking into the cell. “She needs a bed,” King Lowe said, referring to Princess Freda that already looked uncomfortable with her swollen belly. “Whose babies do you think she is carrying? Mine or yours?” King Thorvald asked, putting his ears to her belly, listening to the two babies’ heartbeat. “Get away from her,” King Lowe growled, fighting against his restraints that have been secured to the wall again. “Come,” King Thorvald compelled Princess Freda to follow him. “Where are you taking her?” King Lowe demanded to know. “Didn’t you just demand a bed for her? I am taking her to a bed, my bed,” King Thorvald chuckled. “I am going to kill you!” King Lowe shouted. “Not if I kill you first,” King Thorvald said, grabbing Princess Freda from behind, holding her in a chokehold, and rubbing his hands over her belly, “if these babies are yours, I will no longer have the need for you.” Princess Freda doesn’t fight him, knowing if
King Thorvald went back to the castle and straight to the tower to give Princess Freda the bad news. “Someone is coming. You have to leave now,” King Lowe pleaded with Princess Freda. “What if this time they notice you are not chained to the wall?” King Lowe asked. “What does it matter? I can still break my chains,” Princess Freda said. "Besides, I am compelled not to try and escape. That is why I have to wait for my friend so that she can bring me a shaman necklace,” Princess Freda said. The door opened and King Thorvald walked in with a big smile on his face. “Bad news. I have found Phoebe.” Princess Freda hung her head in defeat with no response. King Thorvald walked over to her and took her arm, bringing her palm to his mouth before sinking his teeth into her. After drinking his fill, he ripped her dress off her and wiped his mouth with it before turning to King Lowe, “Perhaps now you won't be able to resist her.” “He can not even reach me, you moron,” Princess Freda spat, n
