Kanyon swiftly directed his attention towards Jessica, meeting her gaze. "Kanyon, did you hear what I said?"Jessica asked. "I said I want to taste you." Her hand lowered down to his shaft, and she took it in her grip and gave it a squeeze. "I heard you the first time," he murmured, closing his eyes and appreciating the sensation of her hand stroking him. "Is that what you truly want? There's no need for you to do that tonight." Jessica used the middle of her hand to smear over the cusp of his dick, catching some of his pre-cum. After that, she lifted her palm to her face and licked his essence from it. "I am sure," she remarked with a cheeky grin, prompting Kanyon to grunt and widen his eyes. His pupils glowed when he watched her swallow his juice. "OK," came his smooth reply. He then positioned on his knees at the both sides of Jessica's head. Lying on her back, she raised her hands and caressed his thighs. Kanyon's height was making things a little difficult, so she perche
Kanyon licked at her neck, numbing it as best as he could before sinking his teeth into her skin. Jessica screamed and wailed, with tears pouring down her face and snot running from her nose. She pleaded with him to stop, eager to get off him. But Kanyon's powerful arms held her down on his shaft, his teeth tearing at her flesh, marking her. Then he felt it, her body relaxing as her arousal got even more intense. He took his fangs out of her neck and used his tongue to cover the cut with saliva to stop the bleeding. He quickly manoeuvred himself so she was lying on her back, and he was on top of her. She was moaning using her hands to claw at his back, pulling him in, wanting him to pump inside her. Kanyon grunted as he pulled out and slammed inside of her. "You belong to me!" he said with a deep voice, withdrawing and then thrusting back inside her. "Mine!" He roared, feeling Jessica's muscles fighting against his thrust. He felt the warm liquid drowning his cock as Jessica came on
It had been a few weeks since King Kanyon had left the Graceland pack. The king's guards and doctor had been doing a marvellous job at turning the pack around for the better. The omegas were finally getting the respect and care they deserved, but Luna Magda couldn't give a shit about the other people in the pack. She had been drilling her daughters like they were at boot camp, but she wasn't pleased that her daughters were still not losing the weight she wanted them to in order to look thin and fit for their potential engagement to the lycan king. "Margret you haven't lost a single pound! What have you been eating?" Magda roared. "The ball is under three months away, and we leave in a month since we are going by carriages." "Mother, it's not me but my wolf. No matter how much I starve myself during the days, she eats three times the amount she normally does when I take her for runs," Marget whined. "I don't wanna hear any excuses, you disgusting pig!" she shoved her daughter
Victor Eclipse, son of Beta Vernon Eclipse, was pleased seeing how great his pack was doing all of a sudden. He especially couldn't wait to attend this ball that was being held in the next couple of months in the kingdom of Lycania. He sat at the breakfast table with his family, something they hadn't done in years since they mostly had their meals in the grand hall with the pack. Due to the ongoing renovations of all buildings from the pack house to the library and hospital, many families now found themselves having meals at home. He watched as his eldest sister picked at her plate. "Sara, why do you look so sad?" he asked her. "I'm not sad, little brother. I'm just thinking about finding my true mate," she sighed. Her parents looked up at her with sorrowful eyes. "Honey, but with your condition, do you think your mate will want a woman who cannot give him children?" Her mother, Sally, stated. "When I was younger, I thought he wouldn't, but now I'm thinking a lot more
Sinbad was worried about his mate. In his hundred of years of living, he had never seen or heard of anything like this.'We must do something. We can't lose another mate. We just can't,' he whimpered. 'Don't worry. We won't. I will not let this happen. We'll find a solution to whatever problem this is,' Kanyon replied to his beast. Kanyon spent the rest of the night tossing and turning in the bed, unable to sleep. So he stayed awake all night so he could keep an eye on Jessica. She was slipping in and out of consciousness, mumbling gibberish. It was like she was having a fever dream. Kanyon knew her body must be exhausted after her mid-transformation. The left side of her body shifted halfway into a wolf while her right part had transformed halfway into a Lycan. With the two creatures fighting for dominance, the pain was too much for Jessica, so she passed out. Then her body turned back to its human form. Kanyon and Lucy rushed her back to the king's chambers to attend to her. The
While walking to the Blue Room, Cameron held Reniece's hand and earnestly requested, "Reniece, I need you to promise me that you'll be on your best behaviour." "What? Are you afraid I will embarrass you with my experiences?" She rolled her eyes, yanking her hand from Cameron. "Actually, I want her to be herself today," Kanyon grinned. "I can't wait to see the looks on their faces when they find out she's my sister and mated to you." The king patted his best friend's back. "Ah! I see," Cam chuckled. "I think this will be fun. Maybe this will get April off my ass." "Who the fuck is April?" Ren urged. "Is she one of your skanks, Cameron? I swear to the Moon Goddess, I will gut you if you don't start telling people you're taken." "Taken?" Cam repeated. "Does this mean you will stay here?" Cameron challenged her. "Please tell me that you will finally let me mark you?" "Fuck no! What type of princess do you think I am?" Reniece glared at him. "But if you marry me first, maybe I
For the next couple of days, Jessica would train hard in the mornings, and then at nights Kanyon would reward her by making love to her for hours. "Woman, I don't know how you do it!" Kanyon blew out an exasperated breath as he rolled off Jessica. His wife wanted it every hour on the hour. He almost couldn't keep up with her. "I'm telling you, I feel great. I've never felt more powerful in my life," Jessica admitted. "Are you sure you're feeling OK?" He doubled checked. "The mark isn't bothering you or anything?" "No it's not. In fact, I barely remember it's there." She ran her hand over her mark. "So the numbness is all gone?" Kanyon asked. Jessica took a seat on him, straddling his hips. "What's with the twenty questions? I told you I'm fine." "You say this now. But when the full moon comes —" "KANYON! I SAID I'M FINE!" Jessica's voice boomed. Her fingers instinctively clutched his neck. He didn't move an inch, yet he felt her claws stabbing at his skin. As the
"Jessica, baby. I'm right here," Kanyon held down Jessica’s hands so she didn't hurt herself while her body continued to seize. He waited for the shaking to stop then quickly scooped her into his arms and placed her on the couch. Cameron and Reniece were by his side, helping in any way they could. Ren removed Jessica's shoes from her feet while Cameron fetched a towel to wipe the sweat off her forehead. "This is happening because of her Lycan and wolf, isn't it?" Cameron asked, and Kanyon nodded his head. “Oh man,” he said with a heavy sigh. "Twinkle is one stubborn little thing, but she's also a tough cookie. She'll get through this.”Cameron rubbed her forehead. "Holy Moon Goddess!" he exclaimed as he quickly pulled his fingers away from her skin. "What's the matter?" Kanyon sought. "She's burning up, and I'm not talking about your typical fever. Her skin literally scorched my fingers,” Cameron sucked on his fingertips to cool them down. Kanyon glided his hand over her fa
The land beyond the northern ridge was unrecognizable.What once was fertile farmland had turned to ash and bone. Smoke curled from still-smoldering fields, and the wind carried the iron stench of blood. Birds no longer sang here. Even the crows kept their distance.Kanyon led the charge, his beast just beneath the surface, itching to break free. DJ rode beside him, stoic as ever, though his knuckles were white against the reins. Behind them, a hundred of the kingdom's best warriors moved in formation, senses sharp, weapons drawn. The silence of the land disturbed even the most hardened among them."Your Majesty," Cameron said, eyes scanning the horizon. "Luxair Valley's gone. Burned clean through. No survivors."Kanyon didn't speak. He couldn't. His chest was a cage of pressure, tightening with every step closer to the truth. This wasn't the work of mindless beasts or rogue packs. This... this was war. And whoever had started it, they knew the kingdom intimately.He had a sinking fee
The night air was thick with mist, curling like fingers along the crooked streets. In the distance, lycans howled, but here, near the edges of the kingdom, the shadows moved differently—heavier, hungrier.The Baktu glided through the mist like smoke, her form barely visible to mortal eyes. Where she passed, streetlamps flickered and dimmed, casting long, twitching shadows over the cracked pavement.Her target stumbled out of a dingy bar, reeking of ale and regret.Cory.Once a proud man, now reduced to a shell of himself, unshaven, bloodshot eyes, clothes rumpled. He lurched forward, muttering slurred curses under his breath. Constance followed silently, savouring the desperation that rolled off him in waves."Oh Jessica," he muttered, lifting a bottle of moonshine wrapped in a brown paper bag to his head. He still obsessed over her. Still pined for what he had lost—and would never reclaim on his own.Cory kicked a broken bottle down the sidewalk, his boot scuffing the asphalt as he s
June's hands hovered above Daniel's broken body, magic swirling at her fingertips. Her lips pressed into a hard line as she tried spell after spell. The lights flickered, danced—and fizzled out, but nothing else was happening. She felt drained and she felt like giving up. With a frustrated grunt, June finally sat back on her heels. She wiped the sweat from her brow and looked at them all."I can't summon Opal," she said heavily. "Her magic... it's too strong. It's like trying to leash a hurricane with a fishing net. She'll feel the attempt and shake it off."A heavy silence fell over the room."The only way to get her here is," June added. "To go to her and convince her to come to us. The only thing I know is she lives on Mystic Mountain."Ariel tightened her arms around herself, staring down at Daniel, whose pitiful, animalistic whimpers were growing weaker by the second."Mystic Mountain..." Jessica murmured, exchanging a worried glance with Kanyon.DJ's jaw tightened. "Then we go.
Ariel didn't stop running until she reached the far end of the hallway. She had Dante wailing against her chest with one hand and the other holding her phone. Her hands shook so badly she almost dropped her phone as she fumbled to call DJ."Come back here. Now," she gasped the moment he answered. Her voice cracked with panic. "Please — it's Daniel. Something's wrong!"She hung up before he could say anything.Seconds later, DJ came tearing around the corner, his face pale and panicked.He skidded to a stop in front of her, reaching for Dante without hesitation."Take him to Reniece," Ariel choked out, handing the crying baby into DJ's arms. "Don't let Daniel near him. I have to get Queen Jessica and King Kanyon!"Without waiting for a response, Ariel spun and ran. The corridors blurring as she pushed herself faster.She found the King and Queen in their sitting room, hugging. It looked like they had made up after that heated argument earlier. They broke apart the second they saw Arie
The guest suite was too quiet. The kind of silence that pressed down on Ariel's chest and made it hard to breathe.She sat stiffly on the edge of the sofa, nervously twisting the hem of her sweater. Across from her, Daniel shifted in the armchair, his movements stiff, mechanical, wrong.His eyes, which were once so warm and so full of life — now looked hollow, like windows to a house long abandoned.DJ grinned from ear to ear, then he clapped a hand on his father's shoulder."Man, it's good to have you back, Dad," he said, his voice thick with emotion.Daniel smiled weakly but said nothing. His gaze flickered between DJ and Ariel, confusion and unease poorly masked behind that ghost of a smile.Ariel's heart squeezed painfully.He didn’t remember me. Nor did he remembered their son.But worse than that — worse than the empty look in his eyes was the smell.It wasn't fully vampiric, it lacked that sickly-sweet pungency, but it was there.Lingering in the air. Just wrong and unorthodox.
The heavy doors to their quarters slammed shut behind them with a deafening boom. Jessica flinched at the sound but refused to cower. She stood her ground as Kanyon paced in front of the fireplace, the muscles in his jaw ticking furiously. Yes, he was upset when he found out that Jessica dabbled in dark magic to bring Daniel back to life. But this, finding out that Constance is now a Baktu made everything even more detrimental. The temperature in the room felt hotter than the flames licking the hearth, the fury rolling off Kanyon in suffocating waves."You went behind my back," Kanyon growled, his voice a low, dangerous rumble. "You. My Queen. The one person I should be able to trust above all others!"Jessica crossed her arms defiantly. "I did what needed to be done, Kanyon. You don't understand—""No! You don't understand!" he roared, whipping around to face her. His eyes, usually molten gold with warmth, now blazed like wildfire. "You brought back a dead Alpha using forbidden mag
"King Kanyon!" Daniel bowed. "What is going on and why am I here?" Daniel strode over to the king while he finished buttoning his shirt. "Alpha Daniel. Is that really you?""Of course it is, Your Majesty. Is this some kind of April Fool's joke?" he scoffed. "I wish it was," Cameron mumbled. "What's the last thing you remember?" Kanyon asked. "Well, Sofia and I had just celebrated our twentieth wedding anniversary. First, we wandered through the park, then we ran a bit in wolf form, and after that, we went to bed. The next thing I knew I was waking up on that table over there," he finished, pointing to the mage's gurney-like table. "Father, that was over ten years ago," DJ spoke up. "Mom has been dead for fifteen years."Daniel's eyes landed on the tall, muscular man that just called him father. He looked like his son, but a way more mature version. "DJ, is that you? But you look so old. And Sofia is not dead. She can't be." "I'm thirty-five now, Dad, and yes, mom is dead." "How
"Cameron, what's going on? Everything started shaking, and I thought we were having an earthquake," Ren rushed into her husband's arms the moment she laid eyes on him. His gaze wandered to Theodore, who had a terrified Falcon in his arms."No, it's not an earthquake." He kissed the top of his wife's head before spreading a viral message through the pack link, urging all castle residents to get to their bedrooms, lock their doors, and widows then fortify the entrances with Moon Petals. He instructed the guards to secure every entrance and exit in the castle with Moon Petals as well. No one should come in or go out. "Are we under attack?" Falcon asked as he sank his face into Theodore's chest. The vampire prince held his mate tightly, stroking his shoulder for comfort. "No, but someone is doing something inside the castle that they shouldn't be doing," Cam let out. "Everyone stay close together and follow me. We're going to Lucy's chambers."******"Your Majesty," one of the nannies b
King Kanyon sat down at the head of the table while he conducted this meeting. “Cameron, is the Graceland kid still lurking around the town?” Kanyon inquired. “You mean Cory? Yes, he’s still being a creep. My informants told me he has been spending most of his time in the crafts shops,” Cam chuckled. “Why the hell was he still here?” Kanyon gritted his teeth. “I don’t know, but as long as he doesn’t come near the castle, and near Twinkle, I’m good,” Cam added. “Is there anything you’d like to add, DJ? Do you need any help with anything?” Kanyon asked DJ. “No. I cannot think of anything right now, but if I do, I’ll let you know,” he stated and the king could taste the sorrow on DJ as the young Alpha spoke, but he kept his composure. DJ's voice didn't crack once. “So Annabella is really gone?" he asked, leaning back in his seat with his palms resting flat on the table. "I'm sorry, man. I know how much she meant to you," Cameron rested a palm on DJ's shoulder. "Thank you, Master
