Violette POV
I thought back to when I was captured. The alarms were blaring, and people running and screaming. “Princess! You have to hide, the lycan King and his men are here to kill us all!” My maid Lillian screamed. We’ve been best friends for as long as I can remember, and this is the second time I’ve ever seen her so frightened. It immediately made me feel horrible, and wish to do everything I can to make her feel better. Except this was important.. far more important than I or my safety. “Not without Sylvia and Dominic.”I pleaded. I knew if I didn’t get her to see reason, she’d fight with me to get me to go to the secret room. “Surely they’ve hidden by now, Princess. Please! My duty is to serve and protect you!” She pleaded. Just then I heard the sharp piercing screams of little Sylvia. My feet took off before my brain could even register it.. I ran down the hall and followed her screams the best that I could. I stopped at the doorway to the music room and ripped the door open. There were two men pulling at her hair and dress. They had her pressed against the wall as tears poured down her small face. Without thinking, I pounced on the man who was reaching under her maids dress. “Get away from her!” I growled. I leaned forward and bit his ear off. Blood filled my mouth and poured out everywhere, his screams filled my head and not a single thought could pass through. “Stupid fucking bitch!” He growled. I went to shift into my wolf form when I felt a sharp prick in my arm. “Uh uh, no shifting, mutt.” The other man laughed. I found myself pinned under the first man, his ear had slowed bleeding and began the healing process. Stupid Lycan healing. “And what do we have here?” The man growled. He sniffed up the side of my face before smiling. “You smell.. high ranking..” he purred. “N-no..” I shook my head. “Don’t lie to me. I know.” He said. He pinned my arms between us and shoved himself between my legs. I began kicking and screaming frantically, someone has to be around.. surely.. someone will help me. In one swift motion, he ripped the front of my dress, exposing my undergarments and cleavage. “Get off!” I screamed. “Princess!” I heard Lillian’s voice. No! If I wasn’t pinned down.. well now he knows who I am. “Ohh.. so I have the Princess here..” the man moaned. He pressed his erection against me and I cringed. “What? A low-life omega Lycan disgusts you, does it?” He asked. His hand struck the side of my face and my ear rang. My skin stung like it had been stung by 10 bees and I looked at the floor gasping in air. “Get off of her.” Lillian lunged at the man but ended up being tackled by the other. He slammed her head into the wall once and let go. She smacked the ground with a hard thud. Her eyes were closed and her breathing was steady, thank goddess. I looked at Sylvia who was curled up against the wall, her eyes fixed on me and the man on top of me. “Run.” I mouthed. She looked between the two men before getting up and running as fast as she possibly could. Everything would have gone perfectly okay, had the second man not shifted to his Lycan and chased her down. He shifted back to human form and began dragging her down the hall. “No! What are you doing with her?” I growled as I thrashed under the first man. “Oh, Normans just gonna have his fun while I have mine in here.” He purred. “No! She’s 15! She’s just a child!” I screamed as tears began to fall down my face. I tried so hard but whatever they stuck in my arm had me feeling weak. I’ve taken small doses of wolfsbane every day of my life so whatever they gave me was too much for even a normal wolf.. If I can’t shift.. maybe I can still use my claws. “Oh, she’ll be okay. Break her in a bit.” He laughed. I filled with rage and pulled an arm out from between us and with all of my strength, I shoved my hand into his neck. I wrapped my fingers around his warm and wet throat and yanked on it as hard as I could. His eyes widened as I ripped his throat from his neck and blood spilled all over me. I closed my eyes and mouth as his blood covered my face and hair. His body fell on top of me and little gurgles came out of his mouth. “Fucking pig,” I grunted as I wiped my eyes and mouth with my non-bloodied hand. My skin covered in goosebumps and my hair stood at attention when a cough interrupted my thoughts. I tilted my head back as far as I could and spotted about 6 men all dressed in black with small spatters of blood here and there. Their scents hit my nose and I knew.. they’re not from my kingdom. My eyes met with the one in the middle. The aura screamed powerful and I just knew I was staring at the Lycan king, Viktor. Butterflies filled my stomach and.. at the same time I wanted to run and hide.. or even attack him. -Take that as you will.- I stopped looking and tried to shove off the man, I pushed him as hard as I could until finally, he hit the ground with a thud. I stood up quickly and grabbed the front of my dress with each hand trying my best to hold the top together. Though, I wasn’t doing too well because my hands were now slippery from the blood so my cleavage was everywhere. “I need to get into that room right there.” I pointed at the room Norman pulled Sylvie into. Her muffled screams were heard through the awkward silence and I did everything I could to avoid the King's eyes. “I don’t take commands from you.” One of them growled. “Please, she’s just a child! He’s trying to rape her and you’re all being bitches, just standing here doing nothing!” I growled. They all stared at me with scared looks on their faces because I just called their King a bitch.. and the second I saw the look on his face I knew I’d never see freedom again. I knew he wanted me. I knew I was now his prey. “Take her.” He growled. No! No! Where’s my Father? What about Sylvia? What about my people? “But King we’re here for..” “I think the Princess will do just fine.” He growled. “Princess?” One of the men said questionably. Of course, he knows. Just like how I knew exactly who he is. We’re royalty. We all know when we are near one another. Two men marched forward and grabbed my arms. My arms struggled against them, still holding the top of my dress together as best as I could. “Don’t fight them, and they won’t be as rough. Little princess.” The king said. For a moment it seemed as if his features filled with anguish.. as if he didn’t want to hurt me, but he didn’t feel he had a choice. “Stop! Leave me alone!” I growled. They ripped my arms back and my dress ripped even more. Goddess, fuck! There was no holding this damned dress together, is there? “Asshole!” I growled. I snarled and my fangs shot out. The man jumped back, but then laughed as if I didn’t scare him. “Please.. just help her, I’ll do anything!” I begged. I was now looking directly at the king. Somehow, I felt I might be able to persuade him. Even if it meant giving myself to him. He sucked his bottom lip into his mouth as if he was thinking about it. His eyes glazed over as well as the rest of the men, and without a moment of waiting they all turned towards the door and busted it down. “What the..” his voice cut off with a loud crack and Sylvia’s whimper could be heard from the room. “Let’s go.” The King said. “What no? We have to take her! We have to help her! To help them! You slaughtered my men, my very good men, and for what? Some rivalry between our kingdoms?” I growled. He stopped walking and turned around, getting in my face and grabbing it tightly in his hand. My skin filled with tingles of excitement but it also filled with pain. Pain his hand was inflicting on me. “Your father started this. It wasn’t a deadly war until he spilled blood. Now, I’m just getting even. but this.. this is even better.. ” He said as he walked up to me. “Now I will have his beauty of a daughter.. I will make you submit to me in ways you’d never imagine.” His eyes shifted to my open chest, my cleavage poked out for the whole room to see even with dried blood on it. His eyes flashed obsidian for a moment before they turned back to their cold heartless ones. It was as if he was fighting with himself not to take me right here.. right now. To take my virtue. “Someone give her a shirt. Grab the other girl and let’s go.” He growled. “Wait..” I looked at Lillian who was still passed out on the floor. “Please..” I pleaded with him. His face was emotionless and empty, but he nodded his head and one of the men walked over to Lillian and threw her over his shoulder. He was showing hints of kindness.. even without being obligated to do so. “What are you doing just standing there?” The King's voice interrupted my thoughts. I shook my head and looked at him standing in the doorway of his office.Violette POV “I now pronounce you husband and wife. King Viktor, you may kiss your lovely bride.” The minister said. Viktor didn’t hesitate to pull me into his arms. He placed a hand behind my neck and the other on my lower back and pressed his soft lips against mine. “I love you.” He whispered against me. “And I love you.” I smiled. He picked me up and spun me around as the room around us cheered happily. “Now, per the requests of the King, I will be crowning Princess Violette as our Queen, now.” The minister said. He walked up to me and I kneeled. “You will make a great Queen, lady Violette. Long may you reign.” He said as he placed the crown on my head. He held his hand out for me but before I could grab it, Viktor growled. “Mine.” He growled. The minister chuckled nervously as he backed away. Viktor held his hand out for me and I grabbed it. The crowd burst into laughter and cheers at the sight of their new Queen. “Should we run? I can’t wait to get you out of this gown.”
Violette POV “You may kiss the bride.” The pastor said. Cedric pulled her in for a kiss and the crowd went crazy. Little Colette cooed contently in my arms, Viktor holding my hand tightly. “The tiara suits her well.” Viktor said. I gave him a smile. “It does, doesn’t it?” I asked. He nodded in approval. “We should go, the fireworks are about to start.” He said as he got up. I’d just announced Lillian as the ruler, and she’s already made a change. I love it. I walked over to Beatrice and Sylvia. “Let me take her. You both go enjoy the fireworks.” Beatrice said with a smile. I handed Colette to her and she quickly took off with Sylvia. “Ready?” He asked. I nodded. “More than ready.” I said. We followed Cedric and Lillian out of the main door along with the crowd of people. As if on cue, the fireworks began. Viktor pulled me to the front of the crowd as we watched.. a bright smile plastered on his face. “I love you.” He said softly. “I love you.” I replied. I cupped his face
Violette POV “Oh, Princess.. I’m so glad you’re awake.” Lillian ran up to the bed and held me tightly. “She’s no longer a princess.” Viktor said. Lillian pulled away and looked at me, then her eyes widened. “Your father.. now you’re the Queen of Dubois werewolves.” She said. I let out a shaky sigh. “After the coronation.. yes.” I said. “And that will be tomorrow.. if you’re up for it. They want to make you Queen as soon as possible.” Viktor said. I looked at him and nodded. “How will we take care of two kingdoms.. they’re so far apart.” I said. “We.. we will probably have to appoint someone to do so until our pups come of age.” Viktor said. My eyes drifted to Lillian. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?” She asked. “You could do it.. right? Just rule in my stead until our pups can take over?” I asked. Her eyes widened and she shook her head. “Violette.. I don’t know..” she said softly. “Who else? I trust you so much.. I know you will do right by my kingdom. It’s no
Violette POV Where am I? What happened? My mind flashed with memories and my eyes shot open. My pup.. where’s my pup? My hands rolled over my empty belly. Where’s my pup? “Viktor? Viktor!” I cried frantically. I heard quick footsteps and a door opened, Viktor ran out of his office and over to me. “Violette? You’re awake! Goddess.. I was afraid..” he cupped my face and looked at me. He doesn’t seem to have gotten much sleep. His black hair was tousled.. his dark bags under his brown eyes.. “What happened? Where’s the pup?” I cried. My fingers kept running over my empty, flat belly. I curse werewolf healing. “She’s okay! She’s perfect Violette.” He said softly. He wiped my tears away with his thumbs. “She?” I asked. “You don’t remember?” He responded. “I do.. but everything after my.. Father is blurry.” I said. He visibly tensed at the mention of my Father. “You.. remember what happened? That you.. killed him?” He asked. I nodded. “Where is she? I want to see her.. I need
Viktor POV “I’ll kill everyone if she’s not okay!” I growled through mind link as I followed her scent. Loren and several others followed closely behind as our claws dug into the earth. “It was Boris! We couldn’t find him anywhere and servants said they saw him leave in the direction of your chambers. It has to be him.” Enzo bellowed. I felt a sharp pain in my cheek and growled.. she’s being hurt! I have to get to her.. I have to get to them.. I ran as fast as I possibly could.. I could feel her fear.. her pain.. being marked linked me to her, same with her mark.. I searched for Arthur.. but he was nowhere to be found. I knew.. I just knew when I couldn’t find him that he was after her. After half an hour of running, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and tumbled to the ground. “Ah!” I growled as I shifted back into human form. I held my stomach but there was no blood.. Violette.. I gathered myself but felt rage like you wouldn’t believe.. hurt.. pain.. sorrow.. what is happe
Violette POV “Look at my daughter.. finally able to do things that are necessary,” Father said as he walked towards me. His white hair flashed brightly in my sight as the rest of him was blurry. I let out a scream of pain as another wave of contractions rolled through me. “You know.. after all these years.. I can’t believe you were strong enough to survive two attempts on your life.” He said. I tried to move away from him as he walked towards me.. but I was just too weak.. “Fuck you,” I growled. “That’s no way to treat your father.. I took care of you. Made you who you are.” He growled lightly as he kneeled in front of me. “Why.. are you doing this?” I asked through my heavy breaths. My gown was soaking in my blood.. I tried to hold my hand against it but I don’t think it is doing much. “You know why, my sweet daughter..” he said as he tried to reach for my face. I jerked my head back and held the blood-soaked, silver knife between us. He let out a chuckle. “You won’t.” He sai
