Cayden

We have finally located the witch, she had been hiding in the forbidden valleys according to my sources and we are trying to find a way in to get her, since Roman's death and Kyan was crowned King, things have looked up for the Kingdom. He mated and married Lexi who is now Queen Luna and has a five-year-old daughter and two younger sons. His oldest son Ian is training to take over as King when it's time. King Aidan has taken his place on the Supreme Throne over the Eight Kingdoms instead of seven along with Beta Drax and Gamma Ty, Toffe ended up being the Supreme Delta, he was their fourth Supreme that they had been looking for all along. There was a split between the Bear Shifters and regular Shifters, now the Kingdoms are Fae, Elf, Bears, Dragons, Witches, Vampires, Werewolves/Lycans, and Shapeshifters.

There are also other territories but Aidan has not contacted them unless he needs to, this would include Oceania which houses all sea creatures, along with the Sirens or Mermaids, and Demorand, the underworld which houses the Demons. I was fascinated about the Demons as they have not touched foot in Ravena for centuries and honestly, if they are Demons, I assume they are also Angels lurking around but no one has ever seen one. Lily' has another son and daughter who is six and four respectively and Michelle also has six-year-old twin daughters and a four-year-old son. Aidan loves all his kids and has connected with Kyan on another level, you can see the love he has for him, Kyan loves his father and meets up with him as regularly as possible to spend time because they missed out on so much when Aidan was killed.

My relationship with Allison is more business than anything else as she has no memory of us and our bond, that was the side effect of the spell and Bradley surprisingly is a good father to my daughter. I keep tabs on them as my six-year-old is so much like her mother and is a very bubbly child, I'm worried about the impact it will have when she finds out Bradley is not her dad. No one knows who my daughter is besides those involved in the secret identity of my daughter, she is safe from my enemies that way. The war did eventually happen after Roman escaped from his prison with the help of his former mate Esmerelda and his loyal subjects joined him and became rogue, he established his title as the Rogue King. He plotted for about eighteen months before attacking the Kingdoms and a war ensued. He was able to breach Aidan's territory with the help of Dark Witches and Fae who went rogue, I did not like my Fae turning their back on us but it happens sometimes. Aidan was waiting and they battled to the death, Roman had at one point attacked Lily almost killing her in front of her infant son.

I watched Allison drop our daughter off at school heading to the store that she opened with Bradley, Bradley is usually the one who works as she prefers to be a stay-at-home mom. I visited her and invited her to lunch on occasion as I needed to make sure she was safe until the time was right and I could have her back, have my family back. My soul is empty without her and my heart feels like something or someone is missing, but I stay grounded by running my kingdom and business while looking for the witch to make things right. Erik really outdid himself with this witch and I wish that he was alive so I can kill him all over again for this stunt that he had pulled. The council is holding out hope that I mate soon but I will not be rushed. Michael has really stepped up on days I don't feel like myself and our third in command, Omri, has proved himself valuable to the crown and a worthy husband to our sister. Michael is working from home today as he claims he is not needed in the office, I tried mind-linking him but he is cut off so I decided to head over to his apartment.

Michael

"Omgggg, right there, don't stop! I'm cuming" was all I heard as I was thrusting into Emerie's pussy balls deep as she cum all over my dick, it wasn't easy for us but we got mated after the war. I kept thrusting trying to reach my own climax as she bit down over her mark pushing me over the edge as I emptied my seed in her womb. We both smiled and kissed each other before we heard our daughter, Arielle start crying after being awakened from her nap. Emerie got dressed and we heard her stop crying, it got silent, and we ran over to her room to see Cayden giving her a bottle and singing to her. Emerie smiled and said, "I got it, My Lord," before taking her from Cayden and we left the room. He said, "I didn't want to interrupt you guys," but I see the sorrow on his face every time he is around kids, missing his own daughter and Allison. He, however, has gotten stronger since the bond broke in his own way, mentally, he will miss his mate and daughter.

He filled me in on what was found about the spell cast on us and I was ready to get this over with, I'm tired of my brother missing what was meant to be his if Erik had not intervened. He also said, "If the mission fails, I would have no choice but to take a chosen mate," and I froze knowing that he was serious. I asked, "Who would you take?" He looked at me and said, "Fehmir's daughter," I was shocked but not surprised as he was one of head the advisors to the Kingdom pushing this and he finally got the council to do his bidding. I vowed that Cayden wouldn't mate with her, Fehmir only wanted power and would get it through his daughter once she was Queen. I don't trust Lord Fehmir or his gold-digging bitch of a daughter, never did, they are more power-hungry than anything else and she on the throne would be chaos.

Allison

I have been living happily with my husband and daughter for a long time, he is everything I would want in a mate, I know we had a rocky past in the beginning but I was able to forgive him and move on. I fell back in love with him when he helped my mother when she fainted at Frogger Forest years ago, turns out he was my fated mate all along, I don't know how I missed it but I'm glad we found each other. My daughter loves her father and I am grateful, Bradley always puts us first, and since, I chose to stay home and raise our daughter, hiring Lissa had been nice, she was a godsend when I needed the help. Sometimes I feel like something is missing but it probably just means I need rest as my husband often says.

I have become good friends with my mother's friend King Cayden from the Fae Kingdom and he has helped out a lot in investing in our business. Lately, I started having dreams about him and it's not awful dreams but dreams about picnics and dinner dates, I don't know why I am dreaming about another man when I love my mate and husband. Last night I had a wet dream about him and I ended up having hot steamy sex with Bradley. I invited him to lunch to find out what was so fascinating about him and talk about the business of course. We want to use his shipping company to handle our stock demands, I was getting ready to leave home and I had this flashback about mating Cayden, I marked him, it felt so real but the vision went as fast as it came. I dropped my phone and when I picked it up, another flash happened, showing me and my mother in Frogger Forest when she passed out and I saw him for the first time, but wasn't that how I met Bradley?
