Bride of the Sea-King Alpha Warriors
OscarMy adrenaline races through my veins as my paws drum against the ground, my eyes locked on the wolf who is about to attack one of the other warriors, a Royal Guard rookie like me who is too busy dealing with the other enemy in front of him to notice he’s being flanked.The cool breeze licks at my fur as I make a final leap toward the enemy, my claws extended and my fangs aiming for his neck. Luckily, he’s so convinced he’s being sneaky that he hasn’t noticed me, and I knock him over as I land on him, my fangs quickly sinking into his carotid artery.It’s not my first kill, not by a longshot, but I’m still not used to the coppery taste of blood on my tongue. I only keep my teeth in long enough to do the job before releasing and jumping back, watching the enemy wolf’s blood pool on the grass beneath him.Hank, the rookie whose back I had, shakes off his own kill with wide eyes. ‘I didn’t even see him,’ he tells me in the mind-link.‘That’s why I stepped in.’ Hank is a competent wa
Bride of the Sea-King Alpha All in a Day's Work
MaggieDusting was the easy part, except for the twenty minutes I’d spent trying to find a ladder so I could finish the “ceiling” part of “floor to ceiling.” It turns out there was one in a storage closet in the room.But now it’s time to mend the curtains, and I can’t even find a flaw in any of them, certainly not on the ones Marion nodded toward when she gave me the assignment. None of the other curtains look damaged either, so I head back to the long ones that open to the terrace to check them over again.Finally, I find a small tear in the hem. I wouldn’t even notice it had I not seen the two threads jutting out just slightly. So, I get out the mending supplies and get to work, glancing up at the General’s grandfather clock just to realize I only have about an hour left before sundown... to scrub the washroom and get the warm water brought up from the mysterious kitchen, wherever that is.What will they do to my family if I don’t get this done in time?I shake my head, deciding I
Bride of the Sea-King Alpha In the Service of the General
MaggieAfter such a long ride, and since I wasn’t prepared to go anywhere when they took me in the first place, I feel filthy inside this lovely home. The furnishings are all new, mahogany wood, I think, glistening with a mirror-like shine.The fabrics in the curtains and upholstered furniture are the finest I’ve ever seen, though that may not be saying much since I’ve never been inside anything but a country farmhouse.Even the scent in here is luxurious, something like clean linen, only crisper, maybe with a hint of citrus.Whatever it is, it doesn’t calm my nerves or lighten the rock in my stomach as we make our way down the massive hallways.Who are these people? Why do they want me here?Finally, we reach a set of double doors that the man pulls open. The parlor is just as well decorated as the rest of the house... and it’s huge.But I don’t get a chance to notice much of the décor because the people in the room draw my attention. A man stands by the marble fireplace, his temples
Bride of the Sea-King Alpha Journey to an Uncertain Future
MaggieThe carriage jerks roughly as we travel along the dirt and gravel roads. The two men who came to take me sit out front leading the horses, and I can hear them laughing every time we hit a pothole, knowing I can’t see out front and have no way to brace for it.But I don’t care. My mind races, trying to figure out why my parents and Matthew hate me so much that they’ve... given me away, apparently.I think of all those nights sitting with my mother, sewing dresses and talking about my future. I’d never questioned whether she loved me, the way she sat next to me and patiently showed me how to keep the stitches straight, or the look in her eyes when we spoke of my future mate and the children I wanted.And my father....Maybe it was my imagination, but he seemed to favor me as the only daughter in the family. Even though he’d been adamant about not wanting me to work in the barn, I’ll never forget the day he walked in to check on me.I was just finishing the shoveling, then I worke
Bride of the Sea-King Alpha In the Service of the Alpha King
Oscar“Mother, I wish you’d stop worrying.”She’s pacing around the kitchen aimlessly while the breakfast meat chars. She’s normally a fantastic cook, the best in all of Oceana, but with her nerves rattled, it’s difficult for her to focus.She doesn’t answer, and I step over to tend to the meat. “I’ll be fine. I’ve survived many battles already, you know.”“True,” she says finally. “But the Royal Guard? You’re likely to face many more dangers.”“All warriors face danger,” I argue. “It’s what’s expected when we need to defend the kingdom. You agree that Oceana needs a strong defense against the current threats?”She only answers that with a frown.“Father trained me well,” I remind her. “Did he not serve many years and survive many battles?”“He did,” she says, and her tone tells me she remembers well every night she lay waiting for him when he was off at war.I’ll admit she has reason to fear. There has been more trouble lately, especially from our neighboring Forest Kingdom. Their Al
Bride of the Sea-King Alpha Starving
MaggieMy heart tears into shreds as I set the nearly empty dinner plate in front of Darren, my youngest brother. I can only give him half a roll so that we have enough for the entire family and will still have some left over for breakfast.He’s the only one who will be getting an egg tonight. The Alpha King’s men left us only one hen, and her egg production has reduced significantly since she found herself alone in the barn.I was out there yesterday, in the barn. It was the first time I’d put on my boots in exactly two months, since they took away our beautiful horses. The wind had picked up, and it whistled as it passed through the cracks in the barn walls, reverberating through the cold, empty building.The stall of my favorite horse, Pearl, seemed to echo with the ghost of her presence. She’s so beautiful, a pure snow white with a mane that’s nearly silver, especially when it sparkles in the sun.I wouldn’t have minded if she had gone to the royal court had her purpose been to le
