Usually, meetings with the other leaders of the realm were as boring as hell. Well, except for the routine rivalry among some of them that would end up on binge drinking, but on this occasion, inside the fae realm, it was particularly special.
Ehnrelil had closed its doors centuries ago. The last time I heard it accepted someone not fae was in the funeral of their previous king, King Alduin. After that, they had closed their realm to outsiders under the new rule of the widowed queen, Queen Adna. I was just a young wolf back then, hopelessly needing company.
As to why she did so, nobody knew, but rumors said it had something to do with the dead king's brother, High Elder Geraden.
Now, as I wondered, why would she welcome us again? There must be a backstory to this invitation and I couldn't wait to uncover it.
I sat next to the King of Sattus—the only man in the me
< Aero >I couldn't deny it, Ehnrelil boasted a beauty unlike any of the kingdoms I had come to visit. Just as I remembered, their ground looked like silver bricks. Their sky, a neon color of orange, blue and pink. Their houses were invisible, only arches of flowers and leaves gave clues to its existence. There were a variety of greenery in every corner I looked, all mixed up with the kingdom's glowing quality. There were waterfalls everywhere and with these waterfalls came mists that surrounded the greenery. Such was its sight, but a sight I couldn't stomach that long.I was itching to go back to my own world, but due to royal duties, I had to stay until the crowning of Ehnrelil's new king. The way Queen Adna and High Elder Geraden gave me looks of contempt earlier didn't warrant any of my respect, but again, to show face, I had to attend the ritual.But while waiting for that to happen, I decided to avo
< Aero >It was after lunch when I decided to return to the castle. I would have been earlier if it wasn't for the constant ache on my wrist mark. It was aching last time I was in Ehnrelil and when I arrived in my manor too. The ache was tolerable then, but it was worse last night, enough that would hinder me from getting a good night's sleep.The ache however subsided now the closer I was to my castle; or to be more specific, the closer I was to her. This was indeed the same when we were far from each other for the whole month: me in Phanteon while she was on Earth.That said, I was able to finally solve one of the mark's mysteries and that would be its fucking purpose.I got to hand it to whoever or whatever power created the marks on our wrists. It definitely made sure we, newly weds, stay close. In short, avoiding each other was futile.And hell, that was obviously a
< Serena >I kept my cool. I kept myself as accommodating as I could despite all the people surrounding me asking for my advice, for my supervision, and for simply my presence. With their king and prince both absent, they needed another royal to guide them and despite me being fake, I was the closest fit for the position.As a result, I received many praises from the victims and the Alphas alike the entire course of the day. I appreciated it, but what I really cared about was their happy faces and the light of hope in their eyes.I got those when the king and I delivered the last batch of fire victims to their quarters. They were my validation that I did my job right as queen.Now, with me alone with the king—riding him even—I finally had ample time to think how grateful I was with his presence.Honestly speaking, I never expected for him to help me or even to return so e
< Aero >The moment I arrived in the hot springs of Mount Thersa, that's when I realized I made a mistake. Over the dark horizon, the snow moon was taking form, beckoning me, mocking me with its crescent shape. Hell, it was day one of its phase and I was already too late to notice it.I wouldn't have brought Serena here if I did, but the deed was done. What was left now was to have her swim in the hot spring and leave the place. Stat.To remedy my problem, I told her an hour of swimming was enough. Normally, I'd be immune to its first and second phase unlike the other weres in my kingdom, so I deemed myself safe. I could behave, keep my hands to myself.For now at least.As the Alpha King, my sense of hearing was already superb, but I felt it was more sensitive now as Serena, naked for sure, continued to swim, creating splashes and waves like a nymph, and it was damn teas
< Serena >"Then, I'll kiss you back."I flung my arms around his neck and pulled him to me. He followed my lead and claimed my lips once more.As promised, I reciprocated his ardor. Our tongue sparred. Our mouths molded. I couldn't breathe properly, but again, I didn't care. He was my oxygen. The longer we kissed, the more alive I felt.I couldn't really describe how good it was to finally set my desire free. From my sexual dreams with him to the real yearning from deep within my heart, I was certain I was on the right path. Never mind the fact that we were in different worlds. Never mind the fact that he was a werewolf and I, a human. Never mind the fact that he hated women. We both wanted each other and that was enough.His hands moved to cup my breasts. They were already aching to be attended. With his thumbs, he pressed my nipples again and rolled them in an excrucia
< Aero >What was intended to be an hour of swimming turned to an all-out intimate tryst until midnight. The snow moon’s first phase didn’t influence me. It was all me. All my accumulated desire for her freed in one night.As a man who hadn’t touched a woman before, I was half-crazed, half-tempted to fuck her the whole night long, but I reminded myself she was a human. She was easily breakable, so preciously fragile, so I settled for four...four magnificent love makings: three inside the cave where I usually spend my time after court meetings and the last one, on her chamber.The hot spring cave was my little solace. Now, I had shared it with another and with a woman, her, no less. I couldn’t be more happier.On our second, I stripped myself of the confining pants and soaked boots. Fully naked, I took her under the waterfall, in a hidden area where a slab of rock slanted. Warm water rushed behind he
< Aero >Transporting myself inside the war room, a deep scowl was already etched on my face. Elijah was already sitting in one of the chairs of the oval table, dressed still in his travel clothes. Agotta, or the realm of the witches, was a fifteen-day ride by horseback and five days lesser when traveled in wolf form. There were two gates through it when a visitor wishes to cross. It cuts the travel time in just a day, but even then, it would still cost the traveler tired muscles and a whole lot of migraine.That was exactly the second reason why I didn’t want to visit that place. The first was simply because that realm was filled with women. The first and last time I visited Agotta was with my father when I was young. Like Ehnrelil, I couldn’t stomach how glimmering and bright their world looked.Elijah had volunteered to be my vassal when dealing with the witches and I was under the impression he had enjoyed each of his visi
< Serena >Once King Aero left, I went for a bath. True that I would have preferred him with me, but of course, I couldn’t be selfish. The kingdom needed him and as their fake-now-turned-real queen, I got to practice sharing.Looking at myself in the mirror afterwards, I couldn’t keep myself from sighing. There were lots and I mean lots of hickeys all over my body proof that what happened to us last night was real. Proof that I yielded to him and to my desires. Finally.Making love with him felt so good, so right. So complete. I could never regret giving in to him. He was more than I could hope for in a lover.The hickeys too were proof that he submitted to me—a woman—and proof that he could change. I doubt he’d place the same respect and high regard for the rest of the women in his kingdom, but I was a promising start. He could change for the better.In high spirits, I d
