Leia's POVThe sigil Xavier had used worked, as Kai no longer needed my help to stabilize. His hazel gaze, now back to normal, fixed on me, even as restraints continued to secure him. "Kai," I said cautiously. His eyes flickered in recognition."Leia," he murmured my name affectionately. I moved closer, but Xavier halted me."Remember, he's fooled us before, acting normal before attacking us with his dark power," Xavier reminded me. Upon hearing this, Kai's eyes widened in shock. It seemed he didn't remember."What?" Kai blinked, dumbfounded. "I didn't do that, did I?" he questioned, his tone filled with disbelief."You did, Kai," I whispered."I don't remember, but I can assure you I'm in control of the power now," Kai declared."It's hard for us to take your word and remove the magical handcuffs," Xavier responded sternly. "I can't risk Leia getting hurt.""Xavier, please, let's take off the cuffs. We should trust Kai," I implored. Xavier looked at me, sighed, and then made his deci

An assortment of flogs, chokers, plugs, and differently designed handcuffs graced the room, some of which I couldn't even name. Leather bras and thongs were abundant, with ropes, canes, and an array of other tools that I was unfamiliar with. Chains hung from the walls, paired with leather-coated cuffs."What exactly is this room? It's extremely kinky. Were my mates into the BDSM thing?" I mused aloud."You've stumbled upon our secret." Kai's voice made me jump, his smirk a mis
Leia – POVI saw Susan crying, her face a mess of tears, and I noticed Xavier and Reo looking at her with concern. "What's going on?" I asked, my voice filled with alarm. Susan was sniffling, her body wracked with sobs."Leia," she choked out, and I rushed over to hug her, trying to calm her down. I looked to Xavier and Kai for answers, my heart pounding in fear."Jennifer has been arrested and put in prison," Xavier said, worry etching his face."Why was she arrested? What did she do wrong?" I asked, my mind spinning."Jennifer aided the Black Moon Pack, the one held responsible for the death of Witch Queen Veronica," Susan stammered, barely able to get the words out.I couldn't understand it. "Why would Heather do such a thing? Wasn't Jennifer a Rogue witch? How can she hold her in Prison when she was the reason for Jennifer's exile?" I asked, confusion and anger mingling in my voice."I know, but Queen Heather had warned Jennifer never to aid anyone in war," Susan answered, her voi
Leia's – POVI checked the backpack to ensure I had filled it with everything, confirming that all essential things were packed, and then buckled it closed. Walking downstairs, I met the worried gazes of my mates, though their concern was hidden behind calm faces. Susan looked at me with hope, silently begging me to bring her love back to her."I am ready to leave," I announced."Leia, please be safe and come back home to us," Xavier implored, as he hugged me before Kai could. I hugged him back tightly."I will be fine," I assured him. Xavier pulled away from the hug and kissed my lips tenderly, causing me to melt against him like I always did. Breaking from the kiss, I turned to see Kai waiting patiently, a new display of patience from him. He hated to be second in showing his love to me."Take care," Kai whispered, kissing me with an intensity that made my head spin, a whirlwind of love, care, and worry mixed into it. Breaking from our feverish kiss and catching my breath, I had to
Leia's POV"Are you seriously asking us to assist you in rescuing a woman branded as a traitor to the witch lands for aiding the Black Moon pack?" Jess questioned incredulously."Yes, that's correct. I will compensate you generously for your help," I replied earnestly."Besides being a witch, there's something unique about you. I sense a faint trace of a wolf from your aura," Dian said, sniffing the air around me. I felt an odd sensation at her action, but I maintained a steady facade. I pondered whether I had made a mistake in conversing so openly with these women. My mind was brimming with doubts and questions."I believe you already know who I am," I said confidently, assuming they recognized me."Indeed, we do. You are the Luna of the Black Moon and Blue Wood pack—the most powerful woman, possessing dual magic elements," Jess stated, locking her gaze with mine. "I find it intriguing that you sought us out, given your unfamiliarity with our kind.""I had a strong gut feeling that y
Leia's POV"Recheck the guest list," Venia confidently instructed, referring to the pseudonyms she had used to register us on the guest list.The female security guard scanned the list, then apologized with a bow, "I see the names mentioned. I'm sorry for stopping you ladies like this. Please forgive me.""It's okay," Jess responded sternly. We walked in, donning masks for the masquerade party. We blended into the crowd, and I glanced at my wrist, revealing a map visible only to me. The mark on the map indicated Jennifer's location in the dungeons. Jess skillfully manipulated a lock, gaining us access to another building wing. Meanwhile, Venia and Dina kept watch, prepared to handle any backup.As we ventured further, my heart raced. The spiraling staircase we descended felt ancient, lit only by magically ignited torches. "We'll soon encounter a large group of security. Be ready," Jess warned.I nodded in agreement, feeling the daggers concealed beneath my dress. The sound of approach
Leia – POV"Explain. What did you find out, and what is Queen Heather planning?" I demanded. Jennifer glanced anxiously out the window, noting the security guards advancing on the hotel."I believe the Rebellion group has been caught this time," Jennifer whispered. "We need to teleport and fast." I clutched my backpack as Jennifer conjured a vortex. Moments later, we landed in an old wooden house that appeared long abandoned."Leia, while I was imprisoned, I learned that her resentment towards me wasn't solely because Veronica died in your realm. She despises the power you wield and feels threatened by it because—" Jennifer stopped abruptly, conjuring a piece of paper with magic."This is Queen Veronica's will. She modified a clause stating that if members of the clan become displeased with any of her descendants in power, Leia Agnor can either assume the role of Queen or appoint someone else," Jennifer read aloud, then handed me the document."Why didn't you present this earlier to t
Leia – POV"Remove her handcuffs. I'd like to hear her side," Queen Heather commanded. At her order, the female guard unlocked my wrists. I retrieved a piece of paper from my pocket, glancing at it for reference."I need to correct the narrative that's been spun by your queen, Heather," I began, meeting her gaze. "The late Queen Veronica made an alteration to her will. She added a clause stating that if the citizens of this realm are dissatisfied with her lineage's rule, I have the authority to step in and nominate a successor." I watched as Heather's face contorted with displeasure. "Jennifer was an influential witch, and she was close to Queen Veronica. Jennifer knew about this clause, and was summoned by the Council of Witches to validate it, providing evidence she possessed. But, when she arrived at the council chamber, five members of the witch council were found dead, and she was falsely accused of the crime. They further tarnished my reputation by claiming I had ordered Jennife
