“Alright, let´s focus,” I said, after we all laughed about the little mishap on Urien´s ID pass.
“Everyone in places,” Angie said over the communication channel, and I had to bite my tongue from saying something corny. Something that would be only for her, but with so many ears listening, I wouldn't hear the end of it for about a century.
I walked into the building, Urien following me one step
Charmaine TyenZiva gave me a sly smile, and I knew she would try something. Dante didn´t need a warning, nor a heads-up; he noticed too.“Alright, we will begin,” I said, placing my hands over her cold ones. Dante gave me a knowing look. He would not get in there; he didn´t want to know whatever trap Ziva had been planning.I nodded and allowed my energy to sip into her. My soul reading hers. Oh, boy! Ziva was a piece of work. I could see how she wanted to make Zane and Asteria bad before the vampire society. So, she could be the logical succession option. I could see how Zion was not interested, and she was the one pushing him to do something he did not want to.I saw how she was trying to hide her mate bond, and how she wanted to push something my way.I smirked; whatever she wanted to, would backfire. I allowed her to see where she was coming from. I felt a deranged energy coming
ZivaI have been worried, Zane is different with me, and I am certain that it is his mate, the Lycan princess, who is changing his ways.He was a boy when we were separated, but I used my powers to be with him as much as I could. Yet, when my strength caved, he was left alone. Now, she is the one close to him and completely blinds him, turning him against us, his parents.He is a vampire, and she is a Lycan. There is no universe where that union is meant to be, yet Sergei is in favor of new blood in this realm. My brother is losing his touch, and my son could be losing his mind. There is only one way to save this realm. I need to gather the conservative focus behind me. I am the only one who can restore the system to its former glory. Sergei became open-minded and lax in his ways; he has a mate who is not a vampire. Just like my son, they don't belong here. I, on the other hand, know the laws and traditions. My fated mat
DanteI smirked, and Charmaine rolled her eyes. “And you volunteered!” she said, and I laughed. After all these years, after everything we have been through, she is still as possessive as ever.“It was ages ago, I was a teenager, and she refused to marry me…” I explained, trying to make her see that she was not important to me.“And you clearly rushed to intervene in a situation no one called you on…” she sighed, and I chuckled.“Jealousy doesn't look well on you,” I said, and she pouted.“I am not jealous! I am pissed,” she said, and I laughed.Yes, I am a fucking demon king and thrive on this shit. In fact, it is making me fucking horny. “Come here, woman!” I said, and she took a step back, shaking her head.“You can´t fix this with a kiss,” she mumbled, below hearing volume, but I got it loud and clear
ZaneI saw how Uncle Sergie stopped in his tracks. I bet he was not expecting me to talk back, to take a stand. When King Maximus pointed out that, indeed, I was right, he couldn't answer.“Maximus, things are more complicated than they seem.” Uncle Sergei looked at his long, pale fingers.“Explain them then… we might be able to help,” King Maximus said, and Sergie sighed. He looked tired, almost defeated.“I am done with my reign, I know I am tired, and I can't keep up with the political game or the pressure…” he sighed.“You have always handled the matters of the reign with a controlled calm that is unnerving,” King Maximus said, trying to figure things out.Then I noticed how he was rambling, not going to the point. This was more than a political game; it was a personal matter. Does my mother have something on him that could ruin him? Is that what is
ZaneThe following day after training, I headed to the lab. Iris and Evangel needed more blood samples, and I wanted to leave them set for the day. Then I returned to the barracks in time to prepare for a friendly visit to my uncle. I dressed up in my usual formal black suit with a black button-down; I needed to look confident, poised, and ready to take over. The visit was long overdue, and I needed clarity on what I would be dealing with. I also needed to learn how to handle this type of situation, so with King Maximus on board, I decided to take the whole conversation as a learning experience. Observe and listen.“Are you ready, son?” he asked, and I gave him my best confident smile. I was not optimistic at all, but I am going to fake it until I make it. There is no other way to do this. I have too much to learn and so much to experience. Most of my life I had spent in captivity, and during that time, I learned to lie low, to w
ZaneWe gathered around the table, the room full of the most powerful men in every realm. “So, you wanted some advice,” King Maximus said to me, and I nodded.“Yeah, I know that Matei wants us to be strong so that we can lead, but I am nineteen, in a world of elders. I was raised in captivity, and I have no idea how things work,” I sighed, feeling lost and a bit defeated. I was drawn a short hand in life, and when things seem to pick up, I realize things will get harder than ever.“My mother, at the gala, did things that worked against my mate and my image.” I sighed, and it was hard for me to describe all the things she did to Asteria.King Maximus looked at me with a stern, pointed look, but he didn't react, like the other three D'Angelo males. I saw Dominic take a deep inhale. I bet it was hard for him to know her little cousin had a hard time at the Vampire Gala. King Dante
