All Chapters of The Empress and the Alpha : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Penn pulled away slightly. “What are you doing?” I asked.“I have to calm down or I’ll mark you.”“Do it.”Penn’s glowing green eyes widened before lunging for my neck again. Still he fought off the urge. “Zelda...if you don’t mean this, I can’t take it back.” Although we were talking, his thrusts stayed at the same pace. “I said I was yours.” I moaned. “So take me Penn.”I wasn’t scared this time. Penn wasn’t Cedric. I was giving him permission. He loved me and this would show the world that he did. Penn’s hand slipped under neck, tilting it up. The glowing in his eyes was brighter than ever. I closed my eyes as he leaned down.I held him tightly as his teeth fully penetrated my neck. I tried to focus on the pleasure of making love as opposed to the pain of his bite. I th

I was preparing for the double date when there was a knock on the door. I was desperately hoping it was Penn, but I was disappointed to see Cedric walk through the door.  Any and all feelings that I previously thought I had for him were gone completely. Erased by my bond with Penn. It was so relieving. Of course I was still worried about if he won the trials and having to be his wife. Having his children and watching him destroy Uquix. That was not a life I looked forward to at all. “Can we talk?” He questioned.  “Make it quick.” I stated. “I have to get ready for my date.” “Why did you let him mark you?” “Because I love him. The only reason I didn’t let him do it sooner was because of you.”  “Because you still love me?”  I laughed. “No, because you scarred me. When you bit me, you changed the course of my entire life. I was afraid of what Penn’s bite would do. But last night when we were making love

Those fuckers!Those manipulating scheming fuckers!Oh they were surely going to pay for this. I would not be manipulated into breaking up with Penn. I was going to get them back.“I can’t believe they’re working together just to take me down.” Penn shook his head. “I’m so powerful.”“Yeah you are baby.” I whispered. I watched as they went back to their rooms before we made our way to ours. “So what are we going to do about them?” Penn questioned. “We’re going to give them exactly what they want.”“We’re going to break up?”“No, darling, but you will find me in a compromising with Hunter and attack him. Just don't’ really hurt him. He’ll regret teaming up with Cedric after that.” I laughed. “How doesn’t Hunter realize that this works in Cedric’s fav

“Now, wait a minute!” I laughed. “No. I-I didn’t tell you to do all of that!” I exclaimed. “Well, we know you didn’t tell us to, but you sure did inspire us to.” Prince Mako smiled. “You said we could have a great love story.”“Yes, I suppose I did, but I thought you would be ruling together against all odds.”“We’ve been forced into ruling by our families. We never had a choice. I mean the only reason I ever really wanted to rule was because I didn’t want Prince Mako to. Because my parents told me I had to beat him. But I never wanted any of this. I want to see the world. Know what’s beyond the horizon.” Princess Ria whispered. I sighed. “I understand that, Princess Ria, I do. I guess I’m just shocked. I mean I was supposed to help The Slumbering Reef get a ruler. What now?”“It has its ruler in Count Orman.&rdq

The bed was shaking furiously as I came out of my sleep.“Zelda! Zelda, wake up you won’t believe it!” Penn had never sounded more excited. “What?” I mumbled. “Babe, it’s snowing! Like literal snow is falling from the sky! I’ve never seen snow before, it’s so amazing!”“Snow?” I shot up excitedly. Like Penn, I had never seen snow up close before.We got dressed quickly and ran outside. What the fuck?!Snow was cold as shit! No one ever told me that! They said it was fun and soft and you could make three balled men out of them. But never did they mention it was freezing and unpleasant on the skin. I was not at all prepared for this. “Oh that’s cold!” Penn cried out. “But it might not be if…”I watched him shift into wolf form. Penn’s wolf seemed to enjoy the s
