Rayna was fantastic as she fought, and I couldn’t help but notice Lucas standing back looking almost afraid as we fought and used the power of our swords. I couldn’t help but grin at his fear as I fought these guards. Then as Rayna and I were next to each other our backs touching, something happened that even amazed us. A huge group of guards surrounded and came at us from every direction then there was a powerful glow radiating from us then a sudden burst of light and flames came out from us and wiped the men out at one time.Lucas was staring at what just happened in fear, and we now turned to face him. He was slowly backing up towards the door in hopes to escape. We knew we couldn’t let him, so we suddenly knew what had to be done, and we both lifted our flaming swords, and holding hands we pointed it at him as he raised his hands to shield himself he cried out. “No, no… Noooo!!” was the last words we heard as the flames and an enormous flash of light vaporized him to nothing.When

PREFACESince our reign on Kaihu, it has taken a little over a year for the people to adjust from the dark spell over them. Just when we believed all was finally at peace and beauty restored, a new threat arose to threaten our royal family from another world.As we are talking about Peace with the Queen from the world Amadoria, others who are against the peace talks began a group so large; they were setting off bombs around all our worlds and killing innocent people. The first one happened at my nineteenth birthday celebration, seriously injuring my mother. We have got to join forces and stop this new threat before it destroys us all.~Rayana Karver Rowen, Queen of Kaihu1 THE QUEEN“Race you!” I said to my mother as we went flying on our tayrens. My mother has a beautiful gold tayren with a silver mane and tail called Mystique, and we have spent time flying as often as we can. I never knew my mother was an advent flyer until the first time she and I went flying together.It is so goo

My mother led me to a room with a big screen on a wall. “Sit here,” she said as she indicated a seat facing the screen. I watched my mother walk to the back of the room and pick something up from a table then walked back and sat next to me. She clicked a button on the device that looked like a remote, and the lights dimmed.“I feel like at a movie theater,” I said smiling. “Where’s the popcorn?” I laughed as I sat anxiously.My mother smiled back and did something on the device when on the screen, I saw a man all smiles and holding a toddler.I stood up and walked closer, then turned facing my mom. “Daddy?” I asked her and saw her nod. I turned back to the screen and stood there watching my dad as he played with me on his knee.“One day my sweet girl, you will rule your own kingdom.” He was saying then he hugged me, “Just not too soon.” Tears began to roll down my cheek slowly. “I love you my little Rayana.” A young woman walked into frame, my mother. Then my father stood and placed h

Derrik and Kristana finally came in, and Derrik asked, “How is Shannon?”Kristana looked over at me and came over placed her arm around me and sat me down with her and held me.Bryden answered, “The doctor is operating on her to stop the bleeding. She is pretty bad.” Now he got up and began to pace restlessly.“Oh, you poor sweet girl. No wonder you are so distraught.” Kristana said holding me to comfort me. She is a beautiful woman, and I am so glad to have her as my mother-in-law.Derrik sat down in a chair not far from where Kristana and I sat on a sofa. “How many people were killed and injured?” Galen asked, sitting on the chair next to the fireplace.Bryden stopped pacing and turned to look at Derrik. “There were fifteen deaths some were from the orchestra others on the dance floor. And as for the injured, the toll is still climbing.”“What happened?” Bryden asked.“The military has been doing some investigating right now. All they know is the blast came from the area where the g

A week later Bryden and I were inseparable. He helped me walk until I could walk with less pain. He stayed and even slept on my bed letting me cuddle as I slept. The doctor has said I was doing good and healing fast for as severe as my injuries were.Today I am finally up and dressed and sitting at my table in my room with Bryden. We were discussing wedding plans. We feel it should be small sweet and intimate. And of course, Bryden will be crowned the new king of Valaisha.“Are you okay taking on all the responsibilities of King?” I asked sipping my drink.“When I asked you to be my wife, I knew the responsibilities that come with it. I am ready as long as we rule together.”“I love you.” I smiled, “I love saying that.”“I love hearing it.” He leaned over and kissed me. “I love you too.”“The doctor says I should be well enough next week. I have been thinking why wait? Look how long it took us to be together finally.”“You don’t have to convince me. I completely agree with you. Let’s
