The Hidden King and I Chapter 19
Ash's point of view.Forty-eight hours until we go to war with the Vampires.I wake up early, knowing we have a lot to get through in these last couple of days; I slide out of bed, so I don't wake up Anna before slipping into the medical room for a fresh bag of blood; thankfully, the draining system is working a treat and now I'm always in front with the blood. Not that Anna would ever go hungry, as she has a room full of men willing to go out hunting for her.I smile as I hook the bag up to the drip. Anna doesn't even move. I've never known anyone who sleeps like her, but then again, most of the guys in my life are ex-military, and it is normal for us not to sleep well. I leave the room as quietly as I can, leaving her sleeping; for once, I beat Bear, and I chuckle as I make a start on the breakfasts for all the guys.A minute later, Bear is by my side as he cracks a full tray of eggs on the griddle. Humming to himself as he flips them over with his spatula."You're in a good mood th
The Hidden King and I Chapter 20
Ash's point of view.After sharing a sexy shower with my little Vampire, we fall into bed exhausted, especially as we've also spent the day getting everything in tip-top condition; Anna joined us as we oiled the weapons in the underground storage. No one asked her to help; she just likes to keep herself busy. It helps to take her mind off what's coming. I know how worried she is about me facing the King.I hold her tight, afraid of letting go; Anna wraps her legs around me, making sure that I can't let go, cherishing every minute of our time together over the last couple of days, neither of us knowing what tomorrow may bring.Twenty-four hours until D-Day. When I wake up in the morning, Anna is already awake, watching me with those beautiful eyes, and I chuckle as I say. "You know it's creepy to watch people when they sleep."She giggles as she replies. "Especially when you're a Vampire."I pull her towards me, so I can kiss her sweet lips as I say. "You are the least scary Vampire in
The Hidden King and I Chapter 21
Ash's point of view.After we eat dinner with the teams, Anna and I head into her bedroom, where we spend the evening locked in each other's arms as we watch a couple of films. She is still pretty pissed at me, but I think she understands my reasoning. I need my focus 100% on King Areon with no distractions, and Anna is a massive distraction in the best possible way, of course. I can't and won't take any risks with her safety. There is no way the King is ever going to lay his hands on her again.When the final movie is finished, I slide into bed, pulling my sexy little lady alongside me. I need to get some sleep as we have an early start in the morning, forcing my mind to close off; I drift off, feeling content as I hold her tight.I can feel the restlessness in Anna, though, and I know she is finding this hard. I've never had anyone worry about me before, and it makes me more determined than ever to get back home safely.I get up after a couple of hours of sleep, checking my watch. I
The Hidden King and I Chapter 22
Ash's point of viewI watch as the monster stumbles around the room, he reaches under the bed, obviously looking for something, but thanks to the smoke bomb, he can't see a dam thing.I grab the back of his neck, pulling him to his feet; as Bear looks to see what's under the bed, he pulls out a gun. I laugh as the smoke clears, and the fucker gets a look at my face. A couple of guards come storming into the room; Bear quickly takes them out with two silver bullets straight through the heart. The King's mouth drops to the floor as he says."Take what you want; just let me go. You have my word that I won't take any more human life."I laugh as I reply. "This isn't about you; this is payback for Your Wife...Queen Anna."His face falls as he growls. "Where is the little bitch?"My fist connects with his face before he has time to react; he raises his fists to come at me, but I'm ready as we go round for round; Bear takes a seat, kicking back as he enjoys the show. He gets a couple of chea
The Hidden King and I Chapter 23
Ash's point of view.I throw my little Vampire Queen over my shoulder, much to the delight of our audience; she lets a surprised gasp before she reaches down to grab my ass.The little Minx.I love this carefree side of her; she is no longer the same broken woman she used to be, that's for sure. We head off into my bedroom, and I throw her into the middle of the bed, where she lands with a giggle.We spend the night making love, a craving for each other that I cannot even begin to describe. Anna is insatiable, but I think a lot of it is down to her emotions running high. She's been so worried for me, and then she stood tall and faced the King, fuck, was that hot.I keep my promise. I don't want to sound big-headed or anything, but I definitely make her breathless many times.By the time we are finished, though, she's not the only one breathless. I pull her into my arms, afraid of letting her go as tomorrow we will make the trek back to Eden Forest to see the high witch, and the though
The Hidden King and I Chapter 24
Ash's point of view.The high witch Ophelia leads us to a large clearing in the forest, where a large flat stone sits at the centre. I hold Anna’s hand tight. I'm feeling sick with nerves. God only knows how she’s feeling. I whisper in her ear. “You make sure you come back to me Anna; I need you.”Before I bring her chin to mine as I kiss her precious lips, wiping away the tears in her eyes as she whispers back. I will, Ash, I promise you."Ophelia walks her over to the stone; before helping Anna to lie down, she places a silver star on her chest as she whispers. "This is the magical Eden Stone. The moon Goddess will show her face soon.”As the moon appears in the gap in the trees, the star begins to light up with the reflection of the moon.The witches form a circle around us as the moon begins to darken Ophelia, and the rest of the Eden Witches form a circle around Anna. The witches chant inside the inner circle, Anna Closes her eyes as Darius and his pack of wolves in the outer ci
The Hidden King and I Chapter 25
Ash's point of view.I carry Anna through the bunker to her bedroom, gently placing her on the bed and removing her shoes before sliding in next to her and pulling her into my arms as I whisper."Please come back to me, baby; I love you so much, you promised me a future, but now we can have our forever, Anna."I say it over and over again, but still, she stays still with no signs of waking up until I finally fall asleep with her in my arms. It's been a crazy and stressful day, that's for sure. When I wake up in the morning, Anna is still sleeping; I stay with her telling her how much that I love and need her and how I can't wait for our future together, marriage and a family. I want it all with her.Bear knocks on the door before popping his head around the corner as he says."Here, Son, I've got you some breakfast.""Thanks, Bear", I reply with a sigh; he puts a tray down on the side table, looking over at Anna as he asks. "No sign of her waking up yet then?""No, nothing." I reply.
The Hidden King and I Chapter 26
Ash's point of view.When we wake up in the morning, I get the shock of my life. Anna is awake before me; it's like she has a new lease of life now.I smile as I turn to look at her as I say. "Why are you awake so early?"She giggles as she replies. "Sorry, I didn't want to wake you; you were sleeping so peacefully."I chuckle; our roles have been reversed."I've never slept in bed this long." I say as I look at the time; Anna giggles as she says, "You must have needed it, but then again, we did use up a lot of energy last night."I laugh as I ask. "So why are you awake so early?""I'm starving." She replies..."Can you believe it; I am actually fucking starving; please tell me you have some bacon left.'She asks with a grin." Yes, we have bacon left, and sausage and eggs and beans and tomatoes and black pudding."I say with a chuckle as Anna dives out of bed, throwing on one of my t-shirts that covers her to her knees, and she's out of the door before I've even swung my legs off the
