"Vasilios! This is no time to jest," Nymeria said.
"Mother, I am not joking," Vasilios looked determined. His eyes flashing.
"Rhiannon is my mate, I had known it for quite some time, but.....", he waited for some time." I wanted to make sure that, this is what I wanted."
"Preposterous!" Nymeria muttered.
Rendall raised his hand to quiet the court.
"Vasilios, can you please explain?" The king asked.
Vasilios explained the circumstances under which he had to bring Rhiannon.
Elios observed the series of event with a smirk. He didn't even have to make any effort. Vasilios had walked into his ruin himself.
"Your majesty, if I may suggest, isn't taking a human mate forbidden for the Alphas?" Elios said from his seat.
Vasilios knew this would happen. The courtiers followed the laws superficially, none of them had read and studied the book
Rhiannon opened her eyes and blinked in confusion. She was wearing bed cloth which she didn't remember putting them on.Then she spotted Vasilios next to her on the bed, she wasnt even in her room. Did something happen last night? She didn't remember anything.Adding to her shock was the fact that he was completely nude, his blanket was wrapped around his ankles. She couldn't help herself, her gaze roamed the sharp edges of his toned muscles, trailing down his abdomen to his morning erection, so unabashedly masculine."Do you like what you see ?" He purred, suddenly opening his eyes.She nearly screamed and jumped back moving a little out of his reach, a blush radiated from her face, embarrassed at being caught ogling the naked Prince. "Would you cover yourself please?" She said turning her back on his smirking face.He laughed, "You need to relax a little - I could teach you.""I'm su
A week had passed since Rhiannon had arrived in Arcadia, she spent most of her time with, Vasilios, Arios, or her Omegas.She had not seen the king and the queen since the day she was declared as Vasilios's mate, and thankfully Helena had not bothered either.Rhiannon had gone through every book in the library reading up about werewolves, and the mate bond.How mates could communicate mentally and even transfer their life energies to each other when needed. She wondered how Vasilios felt, she being still a human could not understand that depth, though she loved him.Standing in front of the mirror one night, Rhiannon opened her robe and gently touched the rune below her navel. She has tried deciphering it through the library books but she couldn't find anything."We'll get rid of it soon. " Vasilios called."Vasilios you can't just walk into a lady's chamber
Authur's eyes narrowed as he looked at his daughter. The feeling of fear and disgust ran through him."She assured me that you were not like her, " he muttered."Father please..." Rhiannon pleased again."Do not call me your father!" He snapped."Your mother was a disgusting creature. When I met her I thought she was a lady. But which lady throws herself so wantonly." Arthur paused."When I found out that she was a shapeshifting wolf, I left her. Unfortunately, she was already pregnant with you."Rhiannon clasped Vasilios's hand tightly, it was only due to his comforting presence she could sit through the narration."What happened to her?""I left her of course, however, she came pleading one night to take you in. Her people were not happy, they would have killed you. I have enough honour to not abandon my blood. So I took you in."Vasilios sc
Rhiannon and Vasilios looked at the witch expectantly."Your mother Elana was an Alpha wolf, she married your father, after leaving her people, her pack. But your father abandoned her for his ambitions. Her pack was not happy with your mother getting a human mate. So they hunted her down to kill you. ""My parents were married?" Rhiannon asked surprised."Yes, but your father kept it a secret." The witch replied."That means I am not a bastard!" Rhiannon said a strange feeling of bliss entered her."As per the rules of Arcadia, you are anyway not a bastard. We don't consider anyone a bastard. If a wolf has found its mate, they are considered a couple," Vasilios explained."The only way to save you was to hide your wolf nature and keep you among humans. So she came to me, for the spell." The witch said with a sad look."You were the one to cast the spell on me!" Rhia
Vasilios emerged from his tent after an hour. Rhiannon was in deep sleep, and he hoped she would sleep through the change."Your Highness, I am sorry for the earlier intrusion, I heard the howl, congratulations on your mating, hope you get blessed with many pups." Beta Lucas said.Vasilios smiled at him," thanks Lucas, hopefully, she will experience her first turn soon."Rhiannon slept through the entire day. Her body burning with fever. Vasilios, rubbed her palm, as Lucas brought some more water. He had stripped her naked and she was sweating so badly, he contemplated simply ducking her in the lake.As the night approached, Rhiannon opened her eyes, her head felt like it weighed more than it should, but she forced herself to look up at Vasilios. He had a look of concern on her face. Rhiannon knew that the change was starting. She felt feverish and wanted to be out."I want to be out," she said.
Rhiannon looked at the stack of gowns on her bed, in the wardrobe, and few more which were being brought in by several omegas."All these have been sent by the queen?" She asked Emily."Yes, my lady," she responded.Gloria her omega, held out a purple gown with black trimmings. "My lady, this would be perfect for you. It will bring out your green eyes."The gown was indeed lovely, and quite bold for what she was used to. It had a deep V neckline to show off her cleavage and deep back which almost reached the small of her back. It was lined with semi-precious stones on the edges. It hugged her every curve with a slit on the side, to give a tantalising view of her legs when she would walk."I will wear it," Rhiannon said, instantly liking the dress."An excellent choice my lady, you will be the centre of attraction." Emily gushed."Well, that's the aim, isn't it?" Rhi
Rhiannon stiffened as she stared at the ring then back at Cedric's face.She was about to say something when they were approached by Helena. She was dressed in a golden off-shoulder dress which had a thigh-high slit on the side. She looked beautiful as always. Rhiannon didn't like the fact that Helena was taller than her."Ah! Helena, I am sure you have already met my daughter Helena, my lady." Cedric said.Rhiannon blinked and simply nodded."Well, I will leave you two here, I need to catch up with few people," he bowed and left Helena standing with Rhiannon.Helena appraised her through her heavy-lidded eyes then plucked a grape from the platter."You must be delighted with all this isn't it?" Helena said.Rhiannon didn't respond, she was still rattled by Cedric's totem ring."Vasilios won't stick around for long, once he is done with you he will
Vasilios hurried through the corridors, looking for his father. When werewolves party, they party hard, which was obvious from the drunken revelry going on in the ballroom, the courtyard, and pretty much everywhere in the castle.He was glad that his beta and the warriors were alert and doing their duties well. He sent a team of betas to score the forest for any new or unknown scent and rechecked the castle security.While he was busy supervising the security.He saw a pack of wolves running out into the courtyard going for a run in the woods, which would be followed by a chase and mating.He wished he could have
After three years -Alfred the 19-year-old duke of Allendale, looked out of the carriage window. It had been 3 years since the war. Three years since everything changed for good.
Rhiannon examined herself in the ornate gold framed mirror as she waited patiently for the summons.She hardly recognized herself anymore. She ran her hand over her ridiculously intricate hair bun and then tugged on a hair tendril which was left fashionably loose.
Vasilios ran through the familiar corridors. The same corridor where he had run and played several times as a child, however now it was full of warring wolves, splattered with blood and bodies. Those childhood memories would forever be marred with blood and death. He had to complete two things now, rescue Rhiannon and kill Elios. Preferably, in chronological order.He sliced through few e
"I always knew you would sell him off, bitch!" Helena glared at her.Rhiannon narrowed her eyes; this was a good opportunity."Really? Says the person who sided with Elios to overthrow the love of her life!" Rhiannon replied sarcastically.
Elios was sitting on the throne; he could feel the surge of power. The authority which came with it. He still remembered the moment Alpha power shifted to him. It felt ethereal.Getting rid of the king and his minions was easy as he had been building up on if for years. His dream of building Arcadia of pure blood wolves was almost near. Once he caught the heirs to safeguard the throne, everything would be well.
"Rhiannon I am not sure about this anymore," Vasilios said while pacing restlessly in their chamber.Rhiannon sighed," we have been through this Vasilios, this is the only way."He inched closer," I have changed my mind."She turned to face him, leaving the belt which she had been trying to tie around her waist."And why is that?" He tone was slightly humorous.He was close to her now. Holding her waist, he turned, looked deep in her eyes.
Rhiannon could not understand the purpose of visiting the vampire king. Other than getting permission to kill the roughs they did not achieve anything. She asked Vasilios her query.
As the battle plans proceeded. Vasilios sent Arios and Samara towards the South Mountain pack, to convince his uncle to ally with them.Arios carefully tucked a purse filled with precious gemstones which were to be presented to his uncle, Alpha Randwick.Everything comes for a price. To wage a battle of such grand scale required money. Being the underground city Enegup had mines full of gemstones. Vasilios had been surprised by its potential. All these years these rich resour
Rhiannon ran towards the center of the clearing to Vasilios who was smiling broadly at her. His wounds were already closing, thanks to their amazing healing power.Unabashed, she hugged him tightly.
