I paced the halls, first downstairs, then upstairs, and back up again. Chewing on my lips as I waited for information about Crimson.

“How could he just disappear?” It’s a stupid question, one I already know the answer to. I just never thought, and apparently, neither did anyone else, that crossing through the gateway with the stone would take him somewhere other than back to Eririat.

“No word yet?” Gillian passes by chasing the cubs who are tormenting her daughter. Poor Alice dealt with so much due to them. However, she did have a knack for telling them what to do, and to everyone’s surprise, they listened.

“No,” I shake my head, then hold it between the palms of my hands, ready to tear my hair out.

“It’s Kolby, he could find his way out of anything. I have faith that he will turn up.” I appreciated Gillian's words of encouragement and comfort, but they didn’t help.

Pulling my hands down over my face I rub my tired eyes. “I hope so.” I was waiting for news, any news whether it ca

So sorry for the late post. The plot thickens. So is Yggdrasil good or bad? Travis said he knew she was with Aodh, maybe she is, but isn't on his side. Maybe she is on her own. Can Tawny hide Seneca from the dark army? Will Crimson make it back to Eririat camp in time for the big showdown?

  • All The Queens Kings - Book 8   Bonus Chapter – The Past and its Future

    TALA3 months after defeating AodhThe vehicle jolted, jostling me back to reality from where I stared out the window. Slowly I turn my head to glance at Fergus. Rogue, as everyone else calls him, sat quietly. He too staring out the window. Unlike me who was lost in thought, even from this angle I could see his eyes darting from one tree to the next concentrating on eyeing potential threats.For some of us, the battle left us at ease knowing the realm's greatest enemy had been defeated. For others it only strengthened their insecurities, leaving them in a state of constant alert. Like Fergus. I don’t think his mind will ever leave the state of battle. Not just because of facing Aodh and his dark Army but also the past of when he was a slave under the rule of Vargr.Some experiences never leave a person. Though my own are with me constantly, I never let them rule my emotions. Tucking them away as memories and not dwelling on the past.He was mentally scared. Always in a state of high al

    LAMIA Five years later Casting my eyes upwards into the blazing sun I smiled to myself upon hearing the sound of children’s laughter as they splashed by the lake. We have come a long way in these short five years. Lyric and Damon had brought the age of technology back to the realm, building more communication towers across both continents. Damon’s family helped the second continent to rebuild by way of bringing materials and educating others on the infrastructure of building homes. Rhett, now king of MacTire until Angelica came of age, along with Leneve, joined forces with our new council headed by My father, Mike's father, Abner Brooks, and Crimson. The Changelings had found their place amongst the council as hunters and advocates for shifters and humans. Every kingdom offered an incentive to humans and shifters, offering a loan to those who started businesses in a bid to boost our economies. Oil refineries were open and thriving, and underworld beasts were still present as wer

    LAMIAThe older shifter sits perched in a tree above my head. Her green eyes, which match mine, now hold a cosmic glow, and she has an ethereal look about her.Like a child full of energy, she hops out of the tree, landing in front of me.I suddenly feel sorrow when I realize I will never see my pups jump and play. Never watch them climb a tree or find their mates.Palming my face, Ascena looks at me with pity. “I would say it is good to see you again, but I was hoping I wouldn’t have to. You defeated Aodh but at the cost of your life Lamia. I had hoped things would be different this time. For you and Inanna.”“I would do it again if it helped save our realm.” I bow my head unable to bear the thought that I wouldn’t see my Atman, my friends, my family, ever again. But I meant it. I would do it all over again if it meant a future not just for the realm but for my pups.“Come,” Ascena beckons. I follow her to the edge of the lake where she bends to the dark water's edge, sticking her fin

    TRAVIS/JANUSEven with my newfound godly powers, I wasn’t fast enough. Everything happened in mere seconds, yet those mere seconds were an eternity. Watching what unfolded before my eyes and not being able to reach Lamia was crushing to my soul.Immediately after Ashe and I reached Regis Rock, she saw Mathias and went to his aid. My sights were drawn to Yggdrasil and Leneve battling it out with their magic.When Mathias flew up from the ground and took off at high speed, I was right behind him. I could almost see the fear and panic in his eyes as he rushed towards Aodh to rescue Lamia. By this time, Kellen, Mike, Hunji, and Rhett had already joined the effort to take down Aodh.As I flew towards the fight, I could see the dagger stuck in the underworld god’s chest. Right then I knew what Lamia was going to do, or at least try. It wouldn’t be her if she didn’t do something that could endanger her life.“Lamia no!” I shouted, leaping through the air to reach her, Mathias and I neck and

    LAMIAI felt him before I saw him. My Atman rushed to our aide, more powerful than even when we had re-bonded.I felt the god inside him pulsing, his aura emanating from him like waves of authority. When my eyes caught Mathias, the aura of Arcas surrounded him as a brilliant blue hue of light. Like a barrier or shield.Behind him, also running at inhuman speed was Travis. My hope soared at the thought of defeating Aodh. I felt like we suddenly had a chance again.As I swung at the giant god with more gumption than only moments ago, my own aura rising and pushed out as I felt the inner goddess connect and strengthen me. I noticed Mike, Rhett, and Hunji jump in on the action. Each of them wielding their weapons and attacking Aodh with abandon.Hunji pulls Kellen out of the way, giving him the chance to recover and get back on his feet.With the four of us fighting against him, Mathias and Travis coming to aid our efforts, Aodh began to become confused with so many skilled and strong fig

    MIKEMy fingers curled tightly as the force of electrocution sparked through my body. I was immobile, rendered useless by my own power Aodh had turned against me.The feeling of being electrocuted over and over was excruciating and I couldn’t break out of it.“Think Mike, think,” I say through the gripping pain with each thrust of electrifying light that sparks across me.This was my gift; how could it be my demise? I shook the thought from my head, I wouldn’t go out like this. Not this way.The sound of snorting and growling from Demon dogs and hellhounds could be heard coming closer. I tried to lift my head, to see just how close they were as all my senses had dulled from the torturous current that flowed through me. High above I could see the outline of large flying birds, circling the battleground. They had their eye on someone, but I couldn’t see who they were going to attack.If I didn’t get out of this hold, I was in, I was going to be dog food. Literally.My eyes shift to my le
