(Author’s POV).The Queen had ordered both side of the Werewolves pack to stand down and end the war that was going on for many days. Most Wolf packs had kneeled to her and submit to her command.But, there were some who disobeyed her words and continued hunting for Nikolai. Those were the ones from Regalia and Purple Mountain Wolf pack. Each had their own purpose in wanting Nikolai to face death.He was nowhere to be found since the fall down the cliff. The war had nevertheless continued after that fall, which then causing hundreds of Werewolves’ death.All for the reason that the Queen could have avoided. But, she had chosen not to.Perhaps, she was wrong.The Queen had named Devon Knight as the interim King of Werewolves after the death of Vlad Wulfgard, Nikolai’s late father. Devon did not last long. Death came to him in a most horrific manner.He was murdered.Since then, the Queen had not found his replacement. She did not see any with the potential to lead the many Wolf packs
(Ashley’s POV).I hated the country Xevia. It was just too cold for me. Extremely cold during the winter.Not wanting my son to come with me where the war was said to still be going on, I had left him behind with Ivan’s family. Of course, Teddy was happy to see Crystal again. The look of Ivan seeing his daughter hugging my son was priceless. Ivan was very protective of his daughter. Nikolai once told me that.Cindy was left behind too to protect my son. She knew well on what to do if things went wrong. After confessing everything to Cindy on who I really was, it took her awhile to register that in her head, that she was working with a Princess all these years.Cindy had always dreamt to be the designer for Royal family. It was her dream and I may be the one to fulfill that dream of hers one day. She had also written a short note for me to hand it over to Drake, if I met him in the woods of Xevia.“How long more?” I had asked Ivan who was leading the way deeper into the woods with thi
(Author’s POV).Hearing her words had made Nikolai’s desire for her heightened. He pulled her head down gently by her neck and planted a demanding kiss on her trembling soft lips, not caring if that kiss would hurt her lips, grazed by his sharp teeth. “Your lips are dry. You need to keep hydrated”“Shut up, Nikolai. You are killing the mood” She pouted but did not push him away, which had only made him pulled her closer to his body, as their kisses intensified. Her sweet tasting soft pillowy lips were the cure to the pain he was feeling for days.Ashley kissed him back as she moved to be sitting on top of Nikolai. Their bodies pressed together, breathing heavily with their lips locked into a passionate kiss.Slowly, she removed her thick jacket and heavy boots. It made them both laugh as her jacket got stuck around her neck, “A little help here”He then helped her remove the remaining of her clothes with kisses planted on her bare skin. The sound of her heart pounding loudly could be
(Ashley’s POV).I did not know when I fell asleep. We were making love endlessly all night with Nikolai sucking the energy out of me. I felt drained and tired.I could feel some warmth covering my body. I knew it was him doing his best not wanting me to freeze to death in this awfully cold country. My head rested on his arm as he wrapped me closely on his chest.With my eyes still closed, I could hear his heart beating calmly. He was still asleep. Alive.I could not remember much on what happened after he bit me, marking me to be his. It did not hurt me as much as I thought it would be. Just a little tingling sensation down my spine. He kept his word in doing it gently.But, I guessed things got heated up after he tasted my blood. I could feel him stronger and firmly held me on the bed by my wrist, not wanting to let go of me. I let him devour my body, as I could feel he was healing fast after he had marked me. He had pumped his seeds inside of me and I had lost count on how many tim
(Nikolai’s POV).I woke up from my deep sleep, hearing what I thought to be Gloria’s voice in the woods. She was warning us about something. I sensed danger.Ashley too woke up, looking tired after we made love, repeatedly. I smiled at her looking ever so beautiful waking up next to me. She was only covered with my shirt with nothing else underneath it.Marking her made me stronger but seeing her tired face, I sighed, “Sorry, honey. You must be exhausted. But, we need to go now. Get dressed, you need to keep warm”She nodded with a frown. Slowly, she sat up on the bed next to me looking around for her clothes. I had collected her clothes on the ground and placed it on the bed. “Wait for me here. I’m going to check on what is going on outside”I kissed her cheeks and put on my trousers and jacket on before I left the room. Ivan met me at the door with Drake behind him. I whispered my words not wanting Ashley to hear us, “Did you hear her? Where is Gloria?”“I heard her calling your na
(Nikolai’s POV).Sweat stung my eyes with tiny drops of snow slowly freezing my body. All around me was covered with white smoke. I did not know where it came from. The smoke came to us which looked like an advantage for us.It was the work from a Witch. But, who did it?It could not have been Ashley using her abilities. She would have been far gone with Drake driving her out from danger.The smoke was choking the air out from our lungs. It tasted bitter on my parched throat. Perhaps, someone did not want us to cross out from the smoke. Was it created to protect us?I wondered as I looked around, searching for Gerald.“Nikolai” I heard his voice calling my name in a singing tune. He was somewhere close, I could sense him hiding behind those thick trees ahead. He was getting nearer to us.Gerald’s movement was quite easy to predict.The sound of gunshots was heard next. Loud and deafening. I shield myself behind a tree and send instructions to my army to proceed with the next course o
(Author’s POV).‘BOOM! BOOM!’The sound of radiant light was heard shooting at the targeted opponent. The bright light broke through the dark woods of Xevia. It was setting men and women on fire or sent them back hitting a tree that would break their bones.It was a sight feared by many. A sight that was painful to watch, with blood splatters filling the white thick snow on the ground. Berry red coloured blood cover the attackers body, making her look like a demon walking on earth.She had no fear seen in her blazing red eyes. Just lust on killing those that was along the way for her to reach one man, Gerald Regalia. He was the man who she knew had thrown the metal rod on Nikolai’s back.Walking on the thick snow, the fire in her had melted the ice while leaving burning flames at the tracks behind her. Men and women moved aside to give way for her to reach that one man that she had eyes focused on, “Where are you going, you coward?”“Who are you calling a coward? I’m not afraid of yo
(Author’s POV).Loraine was shielding fire shots coming from Erique who had invaded Ashley’s body. She did not want to hurt Ashley. But, the longer she fought Erique’s powers, the weaker she got.“Ashley is indeed powerful” Loraine whispered to herself and chanted a spell of protection from the spirit of her ancestors. “You will not win, Erique. Release her and fight me, down under”Erique laughed and shook his head, “Come on, Loraine. I just got back. I know you needed someone like me to spice up your life. Were you bored while I was away? You know, you are not the type that would sit around at home taking care of your family. This war is what you need. Power. Strength. Don’t lie to me, Loraine. I know you love it”“Oh, shut up, Erique. This world will not be yours. I command you to go back to where you belong. Begone evil being!” Loraine then used all the powers she had stored on her hand and blasted white light to Erique to defeat him.He fell backwards to where Loraine had planne
