Chapter Fifty-Eight: Mated and Marked Part Three Kiara's POV: I was somewhere between nirvana and wolf heaven, dreaming of the perfect life for me and my mates, when a shiver of excitement tore through me, waking me up. I felt something warm and wet on my nipple, making me arch my back and moan. Kayden's whiskey and musk scent was potent in the air. "Such a good girl, so responsive to her king's touch," Kayden whispered as he nipped my nipple. A jolt of excitement went through me at being called his 'good girl.' Shit was this some praise kink I had.He nibbled, sucked and bit. Licking around my areola, his tongue pointed as he made slow sensual circles around the area as his rough palms rubbed up and down my thigh getting so close to my pussy but never touching it. My hands went to his hair, gripping his luscious locks in my palms as he devoured my breast. I pushed my neck up and stared right down at my mate as he looked back at me with hooded eyes as he kissed the valley of my b
Chapter Fifty-Nine: Luna Queen Kiara's POV: Arm in arm with my mates, Kayden on my right and Jayden on my left, we descended the grand staircase, heading towards the dining room. The hallway was alive with vibrant chatter and the clinking of glassware. I felt a flutter of anticipation stir in my stomach. My heart pounded in my chest as we neared the dining room, the beautifully carved wooden doors opening to reveal a large, bustling room filled with people who were dear to me. The long mahogany table was set with an array of delicious foods, the aroma wafting through the room, making my stomach rumble in delight. My parents, Alpha Albert and Luna Clarise, sat at the end of the table. My father, tall and broad-shouldered with an aura of authority, had a soft smile playing on his lips. His eyes twinkled with paternal pride as he beheld his little girl, now a woman and a queen. My mother, beautiful as ever with her honey-blond hair and soft, compassionate eyes, had a
Chapter Sixity: Luna Queen Part Two Kiara's POV: The weight of the upcoming announcement made my stomach churn with nerves. As we walked towards the royal council chambers, my hands felt clammy against Kayden and Jayden's. The grandeur of the marble corridors and the echoing footsteps added to the anticipation. The flickering torches casting eerie shadows on the walls did nothing to alleviate the tension building up inside me. Sensing my nerves, Kayden looked at me, his eyes filled with warmth. He squeezed my hand gently, drawing my attention towards him."Kiara. We want you to know that we would choose you a thousand times over anyone else. Council lineage, rank, nothing matters more than you." he said, his voice smooth and calming. The sincerity in his voice was unmistakable. I glanced at Jayden and found the same sentiments reflected in his eyes. "You are our mate, our queen, we believe in you, and we love you," Jayden added, his voice resonating with conviction.His words,
Chapter Sixity-One: Can't Have Favourites Kiara's POV: Before I could voice my concerns, Kayden stepped in, placing his arm protectively around me. His action wasn't overly possessive but just enough to draw Christan's attention away from him and back to me. "Christan," he started, his voice neutral yet carrying an underlying sternness. "Your focus should be on assisting our queen. You report to her, not us." The brunette's face flushed a delicate shade of pink, her eyes widening at Kayden's comment. However, it was the brief flicker of disappointment in her eyes that caught my attention. It vanished almost as quickly as it appeared, replaced by a professional mask. "Of course, Your Majesty," she said, her voice trembling slightly. Her gaze darted to me, a subtle condescending look on her face. "I apologize if I gave the wrong impression. My services are entirely at your disposal, Queen Kiara." She said with as much fake enthusiasm as she could muster up. The way she said m
Chapter Sixity-Two: An Evening of EleganceKiara's POV: As consciousness returned, my eyelashes fluttered open to a sight that stole my breath away. Hanging gracefully from the wardrobe door was a gown that sparkled like a multitude of stars against the velvet night sky. I lifted myself from the plush bed, the satin sheets whispering against my skin. Drawn to the gown like a moth to a flame, I stepped closer, my heart pulsing in rhythm with the growing excitement.The gown, shimmering under the soft, warm glow of our chambers, was pure white, decorated meticulously with thousands of tiny diamonds. Their combined luminescence sparked an iridescent radiance that was hard to look away from. The bodice was intricately stitched with silver threads in a pattern reminiscent of celestial constellations, while the skirt flowed down like a waterfall of liquid silk, gathering into a modest, elegant train. It was a gown straight out of a fairy tale, one that was designed for a queen.My fingerti
Chapter Sixity-Two: Alpha Francis Black Kiara's POV: With a final squeeze of my hands and a shared nod, the grand doors swung open, revealing a breathtaking spectacle beyond anything I had ever witnessed. The ballroom was a sea of vibrant colours, ornate chandeliers throwing a shower of glittering light onto the gleaming marble floor, painting a scene straight out of a fairytale. As we made our grand entrance, a hush fell over the crowd. The murmurs died down, replaced by awestruck silence as hundreds of eyes turned to us. The magnitude of the moment washed over me in a tide of exhilaration and nerves. Bathed in the radiant glow of the chandeliers, we descended the grand staircase, our entrance marking the beginning of the evening. Kayden's grip on my hand was comforting, a solid presence grounding me amidst the whirlpool of emotions threatening to overwhelm me. Beside me, Jayden's hand was a warm, reassuring pressure at the small of my back, guiding me through the crowd. The cro
Chapter Sixity-Three: Goodbyes Are Hard Kiara's POV: The grand ballroom, once filled with the sounds of chatter and laughter, was now reduced to a gentle hum as the crowd started to disperse. I watched as the room began to empty, leaving only my family and Kayden and Jayden's parents. My heart was full, and it felt like it would burst from the sheer amount of love and joy I felt. My parents, Albert and Clarise, and my brothers, Kelix, Phoenix, and Helix, were all there, their eyes shining with pride and happiness. And alongside them, the Alpha Kings' parents, Rowco and Diana, who were now my parents too. The realization hit me hard; this was my family, my new extended family. And despite the overwhelming sense of responsibility that came with being Luna Queen, it was moments like these that made it all worth it. Rowco and Diana were the first to approach me, their faces filled with warmth. Diana, a woman of grace and strength, looked at me with a loving gaze. "Kiara," she began,
Chapter Sixity-Four: Aiden's AngerKiara's POV: Aiden's cold demeanour struck me like a lightning bolt, his steely gaze boring into mine. The atmosphere around us felt heavy, the tension thick and palpable. His face was hardened, his jaw taut as if he was grinding his teeth. Aiden, my childhood friend, the boy-next-door type, was mad and hurting.My heart pounded in my chest as his gaze flitted down to my neck, resting on the mating marks proudly displayed there. His blue eyes darkened considerably, filled with a cocktail of emotions I couldn't quite decipher.Seeing him like this, so utterly distressed, was unsettling. The usually cheerful and carefree Aiden was nowhere to be seen. In his place stood a man burdened by a whirlwind of emotions."Aiden…" I began, not entirely sure of what I was going to say. But he cut me off before I could even finish."Kiara, look at me," Aiden's voice was firm, yet his eyes were swirling with raw, unfiltered emotions.I complied, locking my gaze wit
