Aren't you guys surprised?!😉 Who else ships Voyra and Helix because I do✋🏽😝
Hello, it's BONI I want to inform you guys of my current break. Don't worry, I am definitely going to complete this book. It's my precious baby. I got writers block, so I decided to take a short break to garner ideas for the rest of the book. The thought of rushing the ending doesn't sit well with me, so I decided to take a break. Right now, I'm in the process of writing out chapters of good quality, which would lead to a perfect ending to THE NORTHERN KING'S TRIBUTE. I hope to have the same amount of attention and love to THE NORTHERN KING'S TRIBUTE once I start updating again. Muah💋
The afternoon sunlight filtered through the wooden beams of the stables, casting a soft glow on the hay covered floor. Ilena hummed softly to an old Thane song that she used to sing along with Oana. She ran the hard brush against the soft white coat of the seven months old horse that Dreg had gotten her within the first weeks of her coming to Sulcar. The horse grunted, munching on the juicy hay while flicking its tail lazily. Ilena admired the delicate beauty and a thought popped into her mind. “I just realised that I never gave you a name....” she murmured. The young horse neighed lightly, with its mouth filled with hay. She chuckled and nodded. “Okay....forgive me for that, how about I call you Daisy?” Daisy went on to munch on more hay without care while Ilena giggled to herself in awe from the cuteness. Three days since the Luna ball had taken place and it had become a routine for Ilena to visit the castle stables where she could be alone to her thoughts. Dreg
Ilena could barely sleep. The weight of last night’s encounter with Kaheal sat heavy on her chest, making it difficult to find rest. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw his crimson gaze and felt his unwelcomed presence too close to her. She stood at the window of her chamber, watching the first rays of dawn stretch over the dark forest. Dreg had not left her side, pacing the chamber restlessly before finally settling at the edge of the bed, his broad shoulders tense. The rage he held inside him simmered dangerously beneath his skin. He had sent men to thorough search the land for any sign of the rogue bandit Alpha but he was long gone with only his stench lingering in the air. A deep growl rumbled from beneath his chest. “He infiltrated my land, the main castle.....stood before my mate to threaten her.....” He clenched his fist with claws drawing blood within his palms. “This would not be left unanswered.” Ilena glanced back at him and let’s out a short gasp fro
Ilena shook with fear, gripping onto the railings until her knuckles turned white thinking of a million ways to escape this terrifying situation. Kaheal grinned wildly, his large sharp canines peeking out from his lips with joy of seeing his beautiful woman that he had been watching for weeks now. “W-who are you?” Ilena asked shakingly. He took a step closer. “You look beautiful under the full moon, my love.” Her heart stuttered from the sick pet name, she took several steps back yo create more distance between the both of them. “Y-you didn’t answer my question......” Kaheal chuckled, placing his right hand on his chest. “I am Kaheal, leader and king of the rogue bandits.” Ilena could feel the blood draw from her face, making it pale with fear. How was it possible that the leader of the rogue bandits was in the main castle of Sulcar and nobody has been alerted? She trembled. “W-Why are you here? What do you want?” He inched closer, now only a few inches from
The carriage ride went smoothly but Ilena’s heart held a certain kind of anxiety in them but she didn’t want to dwell too much on that and just concluded on being nervous to greet nobles. The soft hum of the harmonious instrument could be heard a few feet away from the castle. Sulcarns and foreigners all dressed in their best outfits chatted with each other. Their carriage stopped at the entrance and the Dreg led Ilrna out, hand in hand like the caring mate he was. Nobles whispered and watched the royal couple walk through the parted sea of crowds. Immediately, guests swarmed them. Complementing their luxurious royal attire that suits them, a few brought up business but Dreg dismissed the conversation smoothly. Ilena was bombarded by noble females who came from afar, she was asked questions after questions that almost made her dizzy. All she could do was smile and nod politely from over stimulation. The mates had separated and now Ilena had excused herself to get a chala
Dreg walked into the chamber and noticed Ilena who sat at the window edge, staring straight into the night sky with an unreadable expression. He frowned with concern and walked closer. “Ilena...” he called out. She blinked out of her thoughts, turning to glance up at Dreg. “Oh...forgive me, I didn’t seem to notice your presence.” He reached over, caressing her unruly curls out of the way. “You seemed lost in thought....what is in your mind?” Ilena mused in thought before speaking up. “Letters of replies from the Luna ball invitations I sent out came today...” He nodded, taking a seat at a small stool beside the large window. “Did anyone write foul words?” She shook her head. “No....I had sent out an invitation to Elia.” His brows rose in surprise, its been twelve years since Elia had left Sulcar after a huge fight with Alene regarding her freedom and almost being mated off to a widowed male from the lycanthrope lineage. “We always send letters to her every year
