Bonus chapter for this weekend as Rori and Ben's story ends this week. King Eoin's sizzling romance is next in The Prince's Flame.
Rori. Since it was confirmed I was pregnant a few mere hours ago, I now felt it was so obvious. I was suddenly always starving it had to be psychological, right? I grumbled to myself. I was looking in my parents' fridge as I dug around, moving all her cheese. It would have been so simple if I shared my mother's pregnancy obsession with cheese, but sadly, I did not. I looked up with an excited expression when I scented Sage enter. "Sage." I called as I launched myself into her open arms. She giggled under my weight as she hugged me back. "Doughnuts?" She asked as I gasped. "Yes, thank god you're a life saver." I sighed as I grabbed some mugs and poured the freshly brewed coffee. "So what's been going on with you?" I asked through a mouthful of sugar glazed doughnuts icing that was now smeared across my lips. "A lot." Sage sighed. I paused my chewing. "Oh?" I said, encouraging her. "There's a guy." she sighed. "Oh, a guy?" I concealed my smile. "Anyone I know?" I asked. "No, h
Ben"Isn't it perfect?" my mate cooed as she showed me the finishing touches on our cubs nursery. The pack was alive and buzzing with the news. We had spent the last few months getting our own house in Big Paw Pack ready, and this was the last room my mate had completed. She had taken extra care in picking every item that went into this room. She had pondered over every detail with amazement and happiness. "It's amazing." I agreed, but I was looking at her and not the room before me. I know it's a cliche, but my mate glowed, her red hair shone as it fell loose over her shoulders. She was wearing a pair of soft leggings and a soft off the shoulder beige jumper. Her rounded bump was now in full bloom, and I now fully understood the words I had heard her very own father say that he himself never loved his mate more than when she was carrying his pups. It all made sense to me now and despite the initial shock at our news, my now long since healed black eye from her twin brother when he fo
Rori.(One Year Later) I watched as Teddy wobbled towards my laughing parents as they bent down to greet him. His chubby little hands out stretched to be picked up. He had only begun walking a few days prior right in time for his first birthday. My father was holding my now nearly one and half year old brother David, who was just as eager to see his little cousin. He reached for me as I scooped David up, and Ben and I note fussed over him as my parents did the same over their first grandchild. Eoin and Amira were next through the door with Amira carrying a large blue paper wrapped gift with a large silver bow. I greeted and embraced them warmly. Ash, my younger brother, arrived with my sister Victoria perched on his shoulders along with his best friend Kayda. James barreled in moments later with some random girlfriend he was passing the current week with. My aunt Daphne, Uncle Max, came next with their kids along with Danny and Dottie and their youngest Scarlet in Danny's arms. Once A
Rori.I leaned casually into my locker applying a thin layer of cherry red lip gloss using the mirror I had taped to the inside door, as Sage leaned against her own locker next to mine her eyes scanning the hallway for anyone of interest whilst she held her book to her chest like a protective shield. Sage was a rare shifter being half wolf, half witch and today she had turned her long blonde hair bubble gum pink with her magic powers. Sage was almost a year and a half younger then me but we grew up together as part of the Pea's. The Pea's was an originally cruel name given to us by the other children years ago to tease us as we had grown up together in a pod sheltered from alot as we were all Royal blood and heirs. It however stuck and now while we all attended the Royal Academy together we embraced it to spite the other students. I was Her Royal Heighness Princess Rori Catherine Sinclair daughter of the legendary Green wolf and direct descendent of the Moon Goddess Charlie Tudor the
Ben. She had kicked off her trainers and placed her feet up on my dash. I instantly couldn't think of anything but her beautiful, toned, skin kissed, golden legs. I asked her to take her feet down but as usual Rori refused and continued on with her rant. I sighed what she was saying about me controlling her hurt me but I couldn't help it no matter how I tried. Seeing her earlier in the pink and black sports bra and black training shorts that hugged her curves had pushed my resolve at least when I got her into my hoodie my Bear backed down when he knew our scent was on her. I had always cared about Rori but last summer when I had turned nineteen and she had come closer to gaining her wolf it all suddenly changed. I suddenly dreamed about her at night, her scent of warm pancakes, honey had a new floral scent addition of Peonies that now tormented me. The day she showed her new unexpected womanly curves in a pale blue bikini had been seared into my brain. It was clear she still viewed
Rori. I dodged my mother's best friend Danny who was talking to some Palace gaurds as I slipped by. I sighed as I made it to my bedroom and leaned against my door. I let out the breath I was holding before I froze my mother's scent hit my nose. "Hello Rori." She said as I looked up to see her sitting on my bed watching me closely. "Mom." I smiled. "Where were you?" She asked softly. "You know you can go out Rori but I also only have one rule here and that's you need two warriors with you. I try hard to give you a normal life but there are conditions for your safety because I cannot change the fact that as a Princess risk hangs over you." she continued as she gathered me in her arms in a hug.I sighed I knew she was as fair as she could be given our unique situation but my mom had an odd definition of freedom."Mom I didn't go far. I was just with Ben." I added hoping being with Ben would make her worry less. "I know I can smell him all over you." she muttered as she stroked my ha
Ben. When Rori left me in the academy parking lot I wasn't sure what to do next. Kane was wound tighter then I ever remember him being. Eoin approached me with Sage and Ash in tow as he stopped and joined me leaning against the car door. "So did you get my sister to school in one piece or did you two fight and and she is now power walking here in anger alone?" he smirked as I paused not knowing what Rori had told him and how much he knew. "My father saw you two leave together this morning." Eoin added."Right." I muttered. "I got her here fine." I sighed grabbing my back pack and blazer. Normally it was Eoin I spoke to about this kind of stuff but I wasn't sure he would appreciate my current feelings about his sister. We walked to our first class tactical training and the subject of Rori wasn't mentioned again until we arrived in sparring. I changed into training gear in the locker room but having forgot my phone I doubled back and as I silently entered the changing room there I hea
SageI sat on the academy lawn with Ash, Dakota, Kayda and Daisy eating lunch in the warm sun. The older half had vanished which was not unusual nowadays, while we all usually hung out alot there were days when they felt things were going on that we were too young for. It infuriated me but usually Rori would relent and tell me anyway. As we got older the age gap stretched and we found ourselves being protected by older siblings and friends more and more. It bothered me and Ash more then anyone as we grew up in the Palace with the twins, and Ben. we were the ones in-between the two groups as my half sister Kayda, Dakota and Daisy were a year younger then us but still apparently Rori, Ben, Eoin, Arthur, Amira and Morgan were out growing us a little. However Ash and my sister Kayda were together always totally inseparable trouble makers.I spotted Arthur suddenly appearing on the far end of the lawn using his siren call he called me luring me over to him no one else noticed as I drifted
