So it's true. I am their mate! Can I really be so lucky? "Don't bother celebrating. We do not intend to make a detestable human servant our queen." Angel Fenris states, his voice laced with disgust just like the last time we met. His rude words hurt me more now than they did yesterday. The full moon must have heightened my emotions. "Surely you did not think that you're befitting in any way to sit by our side. A beautiful, virtuous princess is the least we were expecting our future queen to be. You're not fit to be her shadow let alone take her place." Angel Garren angrily expresses. The ache in my heart surge. I was warned not to snap or raise my voice when talking to them. Yet the urge to do so is overwhelming. * * * * * For the mighty angel kings of Lunacrest, only the most virtuous of women will do. After growing tired of waiting for a virtuous mate of pure heart, the triplet angel kings have decided to device a contest to find the most virtuous of all royal women to be crowned their queen. According to the rules of the contest, each of the beautiful princesses is to be hosted in the palace of Lunacrest for a duration of five days while her feminine virtues and loyalty to the angel kings gets tested. But what will happen when the angel kings discover that their fated mate is a lowly human servant with no royal blood? Keira is surprisingly the wisest and the kindest of all women. No woman of royal blood can match her virtues. But will the angel kings realise her value or will they be fooled by the faked grace and elegance of her beautiful mistress?
View MoreI am curious about what she seeks, but I am not really excited to meet her again. My love for her died a long time ago. I halt at the open door of the less opulent palace drawing room and see her seated on the most elegant couch while sipping a glass of wine. She got a confident posture, like a queen seated on her throne. I see no remorse in her eyes, so she isn't here to say she is sorry."Why is my daughter taking so long to come? Hasn't that old servant gotten to her chambers yet?" she asks the two young servants in the room. "Sir Henry is as fast as everyone else here, m'lady. I am sure there is a reason her majesty is taking her time," one servant answers. "The wait is getting tiring. Hurry, fill my glass," she orders and the servant walks forward to fill her glass with more wine.I almost forgot how prideful she used to be. Yet gettin married is the only thing she has ever accomplished. But maybe she did achieved much more while away from us.I stride into the room and she f
Keira's PovA knock jolts me awake but something heavy pins me down against the soft mattress beneath me. Garren sighs as he rolls away, allowing me to sit upright. Conrad pulls me against the hard muscles of his bare chest and showers my face with kisses until I pull away and roll out of the bed.Fenris is still asleep close to the left edge of the bed, his face buried into a pillow. I am sure he is having a hard time breathing but is too deeply asleep to feel it. Conrad takes hold of his arm and roughly flips him over, causing him to wake.Last night after we returned from the battle they asked me to share my bed with them and somehow I was too tired to argue. We had a great dinner to celebrate yesterday's victory while the soldiers and officials had a feast in the large hall. We secretly returned with the darkstone wrapped with my father's thick coat because none of us could hold it with bare hands. It's now locked up in a secure room in the basement, and only Fenris shall keep t
Keira's Pov"I wish to grant the angel kings their powers back and give my daughter her own powers," my father makes the wish. But it's two since he asked for both the powers of my mates and mine. The stone glows brightly, gaining the attention of everyone. My father's wishes have been granted, meaning my mates are powerful once more. And I should have some powers, though I can't tell what they are.The soldiers halt in their tracks, and Lyna seethes in range and shock. "How dare you?" she yells at my father. "Hurry! Cut his head!" she orders all the warriors on their knees. They all rise and rush forward, but Garren casts an illusion of extreme pain into their minds and they fall down screaming. Lyna frantically glances at her own stone, desperate to make a wish. But Garren makes her feel the false pain as well. She falls to the ground, wailing. But just like before, the darkstone remains in her grasp. "Lyna . . .use the stone! Save us!" her father yells while writhing in pain
Keira's PovNot even our enemies saw this coming as they look even more terrified than I am. They are now Lyna's subjects, just like us. "With her stupidity it should be easy to trick her into making the wrong wish now that she is letting us live," Garren says in a low tone. Her own father is on his knees beside Lady Doria, I don't think fooling the princess will be that easy this time. She must have learned that everyone seeks to manipulate her.Her eyes turns to glare at us and I can see the sense of pride that has returned to her heart. She dismounts her horse and strides towards us. "You, my disloyal servant, dared stab me in the back," she snarls, halting in infront of me. I do not remember betraying her even once, but I guess she needs someone to carry the blame of her failures. I am not doing that though."The way I remember I helped you become the queen of the wealthiest kingdom and you stabbed me in the back," I boldly respond."I knew you were waiting for the right to ti
Angel Garren's PovI try making the beast feel agonizing pain, but it doesn't flinch. It keeps charging, it's forked tongue darting in and out of it's mouth. "My powers doesn't work against it!" Conrad says in a voice filled with worry. "Neither does mine!" Fenris huffs.Lyna was probably telling the truth. Our powers doesn't work on her monster. It leaps into the air after getting close enough. We all manage to jump away before it's claws land on us. It's incredibly fast despite it's massive size. Which means we may not have a single advantage over it.I draw my sword as it turns and lunges at me, one of it's front limbs reaching out to grab me. I dodge it's strike and leap forward to sink my sword deep into the flesh of it's chest. And just like when we tried using our powers, the beast doesn't flinch from pain or loss of life. Instead it's claws grab me from the back and hurls me several metres away. I luckily don't fall on a rock. I stand back immediately to see the beast lun
Keira's Pov"Stay here with the stone. You must not move towards the enemy no matter what happens," Conrad says, watching my eyes like he doesn't think I understand. "I won't move forward farther," I assure.He pecks me on the forehead before striding forward. The affectionate gesture his repeat by Garren and Fenris as the follow, leaving my father and I standing at this spot that will be barely visible to the enemy.I watch as their wings disappear as they stride on. Finally the enemy hordes come into view ahead of them and my heart races with fear at the sight of the monster that is on the lead. It's a huge, grotesque creature.Lady Doria, Lyna and her father ride horses behind the beast. They lead a team of the most wicked alphas with their armies matching behind them. My mates were right to say that without their powers Lunacrest would be immediately invaded and conquered. Their envious enemies are numerous, and probably too formidable now that they got the dark stone. They see
Keira's povI step out of the doors of the palace in my dark boots and the dreamstone in hand. My enchanted blade also hangs from the belt of my pants.I scan the spacious palace grounds for my mates, expecting them to be on horseback's, ready to go. My eyes go wide in shock at the sight of them standing next to my father, shirtless. They all have their pants and boots on, but none wears a shirt. Several female servants gawk at the flawless figures while keeping a distance. I wonder if my mates lost their minds just when we are about to get attacked. Or they are flaunting their beauty one last time because they are expecting to die. I hurry to where they stand and notice that they also got swords hanging from their belts. They remembered everything but not their shirts."You're going to fight halfnaked?" I question hysterically."Your mates just chose to fly to the eastern border," my father tells."You . . . can fly?" I stutter gazing at the smiley faces of mates. "Why else would
Keira's PovFenris holds my hand as we walk into the opulent dinning room. But a few things appears to have changed.The grand oak table that stretches the length of the room is set with my favourite foods, roasted meats, spiced stews, and freshly baked bread. It's like the dinner was prepared to please me.My seat is unoccupied at the end of the table, and in front of it is what looks like a book placed on a plate. Burning candles are placed all around it in a heart-shaped pattern.I am supposed to eat a book?Conrad, Garren and my father sit at the table. Their anxious smiles make my heart throb. This doesn't seem to be an ordinary dinner. "Come on," Fenris pulls gently on my hand and I realise that I had halted to study the room.We stride forward towards my seat. Fenris pulls it back so I can sit then walks to his. I look at the things laid out in front of me and notice that what I had thought to be a book is in fact a cake made in the shape of a book. The words, Will You Marry
Angel Fenris's Pov"What do you think she saw?" Conrad asks, flopping down on the couch beside Garren."I would only know if I can read her mind," I reply. "She seemed happy though. And that's what matters." For the first time our mate looked genuinely happy while in our company. So whatever she saw must have been delightful. Pushing her to tell us what it was will make her think that we actually took her to the fountain to find out about our own future. Then she will be disappointed."Do you think she will accept to marry us now that we made her happy?" Garren questions. "We can only find out if we ask her," I answer, feeling optimistic. "That sounds risky. What if she refuses?" Conrad argues."Let me be the one to ask her first. I will go to her room and actually fall to my knees this time," I say. My brother's scowl in disapproval."Hell no. You're incapable of negotiating with a dog let alone our wise mate," Garren refutes. He is right about my inability to listen to others a
PrologueMany years ago, the Kingdom of lunacrest had many enemies and was plagued by war and death. When the king died in battle, people say that his distressed queen had an affair with an unknown Devine being while seeking help to end the war and suffering of her people.She gave birth to three immortal sons, popularly known as the triplet angel kings of Lunacrest. With their might they conquered the enemies of Lunacrest and oversaw the rebuilding of the Kingdom. Both human and werewolf kings of the neighbouring kingdoms gladly paid homage to them. For many years, none of the angel kings has ever showed interest in marriage or relationships, but four weeks ago messegers from their kingdom spread out word that a contest has been set for all the royal ladies of the surrounding kingdoms to compete for the chance to be the queen of Lunacrest, married to one or all the three angel kings.
