Calliope's POVOH MY STARS! Today is the day! I think I'm gonna have a panic attack! I've been dreaming and dreading this day for the past month! When Anastasia told us we were the next Royal couple at our mating ceremony, I could hardly believe it. But when she informed us we needed to have a freaking coronation, I almost fainted!I've spend hours preparing and my girls have been in here primping me up. I don't know where the girls came up with this dress, but its gorgeous. It's a light lilac color that fits tightly at the bodice and practically falls off my hips, swirling down to my toes. It shimmers, and sparkles like my mate mark, with gold sprinkled over top. I couldn't have picked a better dress.I have no idea where the guys dragged Trey off too. The poor guy didn't look any more ready than I was... but at least he was composed and didn't look like he was going to pass out at any moment.It seems like forever since our mating ceremony, but it's only been a freaking month! And no

"How is that going?" Candi asks, adding milk and sugar to her coffee before taking a sip and letting out a sigh. She's so damn cute, even when drinking her coffee! How the hell is this fair? How am I supposed to resist her when she turns her adorable charms on?"Slow," I admit. "But we are working it out. Hopefully we'll be able to have it all settled by this afternoon. We are halfway finished with the project already, and I'd hate to leave it the way it is."Normally a build like this would take years, but with magic it tends to speed up the processes. We have what we call weavers, they take elements and 'weave' them into things... Like clay and rocks and they become castles. Of course they need to be compensated, along with the materials we need. Nothing in life comes for free.Not even when you are dealing with magic. It always comes with some sort of price. And looking at the long list of supplies and help we need for this whole thing, I wish we had a money tree growing in our bac

Fox has been really supportive of everything. He never brings anything up about the whole fight we had, and me ditching him for her. I'm pretty sure he feels just as guilty as I do about forgetting Candi. But I think he is just glad to have our bond back. She did that for us. She gave us back our bond that I broke, unknowingly.I grab a coffee from the pot and look over at the plans laying on the kitchen table. I've got blueprints, and letters, project proposals and invoices, all stacked up and ready for our meeting we will be attending in a couple hours. It's going to be one hell of a long day.But Trey knew exactly what he was doing when he asked Fox and I to start the committee for this project. That guy is smart! He will be an excellent King, with his quick mind. He can come up with solutions fast, and having Levi as an advisor... Damn, they will make an outstanding team.We are designing a whole community surrounding a castle. It is a major project, but nothing we can't handle. T

Colt's POVMy life the last couple months has been nothing but hectic. I'd been just a normal college student for the last two years, and then the Council and the Guard asked me and Fox to watch the girls. They didn't give a specific reason, but they said something bad was coming.So, Levi, Trey and Jaxx all decided to go to school online and spend more time watching the girls. Not that any of us were complaining. A lot was revealed from us taking care of our little enchantlings... And a lot of drama ensued!The first issue we had was Amir. That prick almost killed Calliope. It's a good thing Trey killed him, or he'd be in a world of hurt. But that isn't even what started the whole damn thing. Anastasia gathered us together and told us something was poisoning the magic.First Calliope went with Trey to the Hollows and found a cave with a magic rune, and she broke it. Then Nadia and Knox when find the source for the animals dying... It almost killed Dia in the process. Then Phoebe and

Let's just say Jaxx was pissed off! He came to see us, storming through the hospital doors. He gave them an earful and had them on cleaning duty for the next month... as soon as they were released.But Jaxx has healing magic and could've healed them if he wanted to, but he didn't. He wanted them to think about the consequences of doing dumb things... not his actual words. The guy was cussing up a blue streak! Man, I didn't even know some of those words existed!However, my mate took pity on the boys and healed them... Thankfully neither of them had to get naked to do it, or I'd have some major issues with it! There are some instances where you have to get naked for a fairy to heal you. It's really intimate, but not always necessary.We run down the mountain and slide into my car, speeding all the way to the hospital. This is not the first time we've had to do this, and I'm sure this is not the last time... But I will be happy when we can finally stay in one place and not go back and f

"There are children out here!" she argues, trying to wiggle away from me, but I'm not letting her. I love the spark of mischief in her eyes. She's had a hard couple months, and what I really should do is sweep her off her feet and drag her home so I can give her the attention she deserves... But I'm not doin' that yet."Dance with me!" I demand, pulling her close to my body. I can feel the heat of the body pressed up to mine. My baby is so warm... even in the rain! Her short blond hair is dripping down her shoulders, and her bright blues eyes are sparkling as I lead her onto my imaginary dance floor. I start humming as I sway to the beat.I twirl us in the rain, and chuckle as she giggles. We sway to our own music. She looks so gorgeous right now. I wonder if she knows how much she means to me? I wonder if I've told her how much I love her lately."Nadia, do you know how much I love you?" I whisper. My girl is perfect. She is the only one who can soothe me and turn me on at the same t

Portia's POVHOW THE FUCK DARE HE? Doesn't he know we were meant to be together? Didn't he know that merger he was supposed to sign was about him marrying me?

Besides, what can a piece of paper do when fate is on the line?And he fucking called the cops and hauled me away! I was naked! He didn't even give me the dignity of getting my clothes back this time! He just shoved me about like a piece of shit! I'm worth so much more than that!I'm not stupid. I'm more than aware he has a restraining order out on me. But that doesn't mean I'm not trying to change his mind! All he can do is call the police and have them haul me away over and over again. I'm goi

It seems like I'm not the only one spoiling for a fight. I can feel him drilling holes into me, but he doesn't know what he's just done.I stop in my tracks and finally look him in the eyes. "Since when the fuck do I answer to you? Last time I checked, I was the fucking boss, and I'm allowed to take the day off. Justin was here-""THAT'S THE FUCKING PROBLEM! HE WAS TRYING TO DO MY JOB! I'M THE DAMN FOREMAN! NOT HIM!" he rants.Just then, because some version of hell apparently loves to watch me suffer, Portia saunters up to me, and coos. "Hunter! I missed you yesterday! I've been looking for you everywhere! No one would listen to me!" she pouted.And that was it! I fucking lost it."YOU KNOW WHAT?" I stepped out of Portia's grasp and get right in Mark's face. "YOU ARE FIRED! JUSTIN?" I shout.And just like he'd been waiting in the shadows until I called him, he jogs up to me. "Yeah?" he smirks looking between me and Mark. Then he glares at Portia. "You need something boss?""SEE?! I'M

Hunter's POVLast night I spent two hours just sitting with Chelsea. Just talking about our families. She grew up in an average household. Nothing extraordinary. Her dad, Blake Nicholson, was a financial advisor, and her mother, Trisha, was a secretary.She also told me her mom had discovered she had ovarian cancer when she was two, so she didn't have any siblings. It had been a really hard time for her family. She hadn't gone into remission until Chelsea was in school. She was so proud of her mother for fighting so hard... I wonder if that's where Cheslea gets if from?She told me she was lonely as a child and always wanted a big family because of it. Not that she blames Trisha. She loves her mom and is so happy to have her in her life. She counts every day as a blessing.We talked about her schooling and how far she's come to achieving her goal. I'm not surprised when she told me she wanted to work with Kindergarteners. She has the patience and that special energy for it."I've alwa

"Chelsea is sick too?" Sandy asks shocked.Did I not tell her that? I think back, and I can't remember if I told her or not. If I had told her, we both forgot. But she knows now. And she looks guilty."Yeah, been asleep since we came home from the park yesterday," I sigh in frustration. "She's got chills, and she's sweaty. I've been giving her cold medicine because I'm not sure what else to do."Sandy reaches out and stops me. She searches my face for a long moment, and my heart pounds in my chest. Why the hell do I feel so naked in front of her right now. It's like she can see right through me.I don't know what she sees in my face but see looks satisfied and nods her head. "Okay. Tell her I wish her a quick recovery," she says with a soft smile before Tinsley shoves an apple slice through her lips. "You two have a good night. I'm sure Tins will be asleep by the time your done with her," she teases me.I just smirk. It doesn't matter how sick she is, my baby sister always has to teas

Hunter's POVI've been trying to keep Tinsley entertained while taking care of her Mommy and her nanny. She's been chirping my ear off."Ce-Ce pway wif bwocks, Hunty?" She asked handing me one of her precious yellow blocks."Sorry, Tisny, Chelsea is sick," I sigh dramatically for her."Mommy pway wif bwocks, Hunty?" she tried again, handing me a red block."Sorry, baby girl. Mommy is sick too," I sigh again, adding the red block to the tower for her."See Mommy?" she pouted.I knew she'd been missing Sandra and I didn't think I'd be able to keep her away for much longer. To be honest, I didn't think it was fair to keep Tinsley away from her mother, but I'm trying to keep her from getting sick, and Sandy from stressing.Sandra has been getting better... sort of. She's awake more and she's been taking the medicine Dr. Sanders gave her. She should be fine and on her feet in another day or two. She won't be completely better and ready for work for another week.But it's Chelsea I'm really

But I can't let her. Not yet, at least. If she reaches me, I'll never make it. I need to at least attempt to go slowly the first time. The last thing I want to do is hurt her... I need to show some type of restraint."Not yet, Baby Girl," I growl, taking her nipple into my mouth. Damn, she tastes like heaven. I lick the nub and suck the soft flesh deep in my mouth. Oh! I want so much more...She whimpers as she presses her breast against my mouth. She's so sensitive... My girl knows what she wants. And I'm gonna give it to her.I slide one hand down between her thighs, feeling her slick causing me to shudder. And grab her wrists with my other, holding them gently above her head.She struggles against me, but she's soon distracted by what my fingers are doing to her. I circle her clit, not touching it. Just teasing a promise of what will come."This is not fair," she pants, writhing at my touch."Trust me baby, if I let you touch me, this would be over way too fast. I want to enjoy you

I watch as he drops like a bowling ball, holding his gut, groaning like he's dying. He's not... I could totally make it worse. I could'a gone for the jewels... but like I said, I was playing nice."Alright, Baby Girl. Let's go get your stuff," I say pulling her away from her father and down the hall to where I know her room is... I know... I have issues. But good news, she'll never be in this room ever again after this!Roxie looks behind her in disbelief, and I just chuckle. Bastard deserved it after all the times he'd hurt my girl."Roxie?" A woman coming out in a bathrobe asks, standing in the door of a darkened room."Yes, mama," Roxie says quietly, not looking her in the eye."Where have you been?! We needed you! You can't just go off and leave us..." the woman rants."Actually, she can. You see, Roxie is 21 years old. She doesn't need you any more. You might need her, but that isn't her fault. She is completely capable of living without you and your dead beat husband. I'm taking

Kurt's POVIt's been two weeks since I almost lost my Roxie. Her stitches came out today. I was so relieved. She says she is fine, but I don't know if I believe her or not. I'm still being careful around her wound.From what I've heard is Brax is being charged with murder and attempted murder, along with a long list of drug and weapons charges. I hear some of the guys will be charged as accomplices to whatever the hell they had going on that I didn't know about.Braxton could be looking at life, and I'm glad. He treats other's lives like they don't have any meaning. And they do. Every single one. Even druggies have mothers out there somewhere who care about them.In a strange turn of events, Ian started dating Maggie. I've never seen the guy so happy, and Roxie is happy for her best friend. I guess Ian moved in with her since Rox has been staying with me.So much has changed in my life in such a short period of time, my head is reeling with everything. I lost my best friend. I finally

"I know. It wasn't your fault, Kurt," I try to reassure him. He needs to know I don't blame him for any of this. If it was Braxton who put me in here, then it is Braxton who is to blame.The next moment his lips are feather light against mine. The kiss is soft and sweet. I savor his taste and the need pulsing through me. I want him to keep kissing me forever. I moan into his mouth before he reluctantly pulls away and looks down at me with a look so sincere I can feel it touch my soul."I know I don't deserve you, Roxie. But I'm going to spend forever making it up to you. Braxton has been arrested and he will never come near you again," he promises, running his nose along the length of me. The touch is so intimate and sweet, it sends longing running through me.A knock breaks our moment apart. A middle aged doctor comes in wearing a long white coat. His eyes are kind and his smile is professional but sincere."Miss Andrews, it's good to see you awake. I'm Dr. Matheson. How are you feel

Kurt immediately grabs a cup of water and holds the straw up to my lips. I take long sips, quenching my thirst. I didn't know how thirsty I was until now. When was the last time I had something to drink? I can't even remember..."How... how are you feeling?" He asks, cradling my face with his warm hands. It feels so good to have him touching me. I lean into his touch and close my eyes for a moment, just enjoying his strong hands."I don't know... I'm sore... and I'm tired..." I respond, sighing before blinking my tired eyes back open to look into those soulful brown eyes. He looks like he lost his whole world and now it was given back to him as a most precious gift.He nods. "I'm so sorry, Baby Girl. I wish I could take it away for you." I watch as he tries to control his emotions. But he can't hide them from me. I can see them playing out across his face. He looks so broken right now... even more than when I found him in my car escaping the cops and he'd just lost Jason."What happen

Roxie's POVThere is a soft rhythmic beeping in the background. What is that? It doesn't sound like my alarm clock... Is it someone's phone? Are they ever going to pick it up?I'm so confused. Where am I? I don't remember anything... All I know is the darkness is starting to fade and with it comes a sharp pain in my side. I don't like it at all. Did dad do something to me again?I groan. Why do I feel like I've been hit by a Mac truck? I feel weak and sore. I feel like I'm trapped between awake and asleep, and the sleep is trying to pull me under again... but I need to wake up! I need to know what is going on...I blink my eyes open with superhuman strength. I didn't know when my eyelids gained a million pounds. I can barely make anything out in the haze. Everything is bright and blurry.The first thing I notice is Kurt. His head is laying beside me. His hair is disheveled, like he's been running his fingers through it. How long has he been here? Why is he here? He doesn't look very c
