All Chapters of Stolen: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Viktoria’s POVFriedrich as a hybrid was an incredible creature, but he suddenly had a very short temper, which could be a problem if we didn’t get him under control. His red eyes also told us that he might also be an ancient like I was. We were waiting for the latest test results the morning after his twenty-first birthday party and I was getting impatient. I needed to know if he was an ancient or not. The doors to the lab opened and the doctor was still reading through some paperwork when I demanded an answer.He explained a bunch of scientific things that I didn’t understand and didn’t want to understand before I frowned.“He had some of the same characteristics in his bloodwork that are the same as yours, but like with any child, he also shares some characteristics with the king.” He looked at Fynn, and I demanded his attention again when I asked him what it meant. I could have strangled the man when he shrugged. He said that all they could say at the moment was what he told us an

Fynn’s POVTime felt as if it was dragging by and the closer, we got to the time when we could open Viktoria’s coffin, the weaker my wolf seemed to get. I had to spend more and more time in the vault so he could just be near her. He hated the fact that she was basically dying in there, slowly, and no matter how many times I tried to explain that she couldn’t die, he just wouldn’t listen. He was heartbroken and I couldn’t do much more than just hang around the vault to try and soothe him. I knew that as soon as we woke her, he would be okay again. We just had to hold on until then.Two weeks before the date we planned to open the coffin, I collapsed in my room. One of the guards rushed in and Friedrich and Victor weren’t far behind. I explained that I couldn’t reach my wolf anymore and that it had been two days since I heard from him. The time had come. We had to take the chance of releasing Viktoria or I wasn’t going to see another day. I was so weak that they had to carry me to the v

Viktoria’s POVMy father was just as hesitant to hand over the crown to Friedrich as Fynn was. They both felt that my son was still a bit young to take on such an enormous responsibility, but I disagreed with them. Our young prince had been through more than most in his young life. He had experienced things people his age should not have and, in my mind, it was time. I understood that my father saw me as the chosen one and whatnot, but I believed that I had played my part in changing things in our kingdom and it was time for Friedrich to step up.After weeks of discussions, it seemed that the privy council agreed with me. I would forever remain their so-called ancient, or at least until we could find a way to unlink our people, but it was time for a younger, more energetic couple to take on the duty of ruling the kingdom. It was time for the last phase of our transition into the modern world. I believed it was the right decision and it might have taken some time to convince my father

Viktoria’s POVWaiting for the witch to get back to us was driving all of us insane, but at least we had the coronation to keep us busy and when the final day arrived, I almost couldn’t wait to hand over the damn crown! It wasn’t about the responsibilities so much as that it was heavy with all its jewels and gold! Friedrich was coronated as king and Melissa as his queen and they looked absolutely stunning as they walked out onto the balcony to wave at our people.Little Freya was growing at a similar rate as Friedrich did when he was this small and I could only hope that I would be there for everything this time. If we could unlink our people from me, I wouldn’t have to take any more naps … At least, that was what I was hoping for. Again, everyone partied until the early hours of the morning after the coronation. We had just climbed into bed when someone knocked on the door and a worried-looking guard walked in after Fynn refused to get out of bed and I had to call out for whoever it

Viktoria’s POVGetting the old pack house ready was an enormous event for our people. Most of the vampires had never even seen the old pack house and were curious as to what it looked like. Wolves got the chance to show their mates where they grew up and it was pretty informative for the vampires to experience a world so different from ours in the kingdom. Fynn and my father set up a team of teachers who would move to the pack house permanently so they could teach the children whatever it was they would need to know in the human world, and Fynn made sure that all the subjects they decided on covered everything he knew they would need.I knew that in time those things would change, but it didn’t say anything to Fynn. He was so happy that everything was finally happening. That our people, both vampires, and wolves, could move freely between the two kingdoms and the pack house. It had been his biggest dream for this to happen and there was a time when he thought it would never be possibl
