Zaika's pov

"I was so worried about you, bunny!" Sasha cried into my chest.

"I am fine and appreciate your concern but really think you should release me and go back into our home," I mumbled. Raising her blonde brow at me questionably, I grinned.

"I'm nude sister," I said candidly and watched her eyes glance down my body. I had covered myself but her eyes stayed on my hands.

"Little pervert," I mumbled sarcastically and she slapped my clawed arm causing me to wince.

"You are injured!" Sasha gasped. I grabbed her arm and neared her ear.

"Meet me in my room and I will tell you everything that actually happened,'' I growled. She nodded her head with wide eyes and hurried to the patio yanking my arm. I shifted into Einar and nudged Sasha's side. Glancing at my large wolf she smiled and ran her fingers through my thick fur. Einar gave her face a big lick, covering her with drool.

"Gross Einar," she giggled while stepping up the stairs.

"The female is truly precious but her wolf is a stubborn bitch," Einar growled in my mind.

"Don't call Aspen a bitch. Tell me what you mean," I inquired mentally.

"Her royal Dire wolf will only join herself with another royal or her equal I'm sorry to say. The royal Dire's are a breed unto their own. They are also known to interbreed to keep bloodlines supposedly pure," Einor huffed. Narrowing my wolf's eyes I glanced at Sasha. My chest hurt from Einar's words. I would never be in a position to claim her as my own. We both headed straight into my suite. Trotting past her I went inside my closet to shift and dress. Glancing in the full-length mirror I looked at the claw marks still present on my bicep. The injury wasn't healing and was an angry looking red which was unusual. Normally I healed quickly. Slipping a t-shirt over my head and chest, I exhaled deeply and went to where Sasha was sitting. Giving me her full attention, Sasha's eyes looked at my arm and her eyes narrowed.

"Who clawed you?" She questioned curiously.

I told her about releasing the rogue pups and Gallum shooting one. Also about the female Alpha.

"So that was the dead child they were burying?" She asked curiously. I nodded my head and explained that the rogue female Alpha wanted her child back and came for his body.

"She asked for the name of the killer and I refused to tell her so she clawed me," I stated bluntly.

"Let me get some antiseptic for it and a bandage." Leaning back on the cushions I watched her go to the bathroom for supplies.

"Maybe leaving with the king's guard will dampen my feelings for her and help me let her go," I said sullenly to my wolf. Einar gave me a low growl in response because he loved her the same as I. Sasha came quickly to my side and began to examine the odd claw marks.

"These wounds aren't like anything that I've seen from another Dire. Are you certain she is a wolf?" She asked me plainly.

"I didn't see her wolf, only saw her in her human form," I replied. Sasha frowned as she put the antiseptic on my skin causing me to hiss.

"Was she pretty?" She questioned curiously. I side-eyed her and grinned.

"Why are you jealous?" I laughed. Feeling her smack my injury again I growled roughly.

"I did not find her attractive but I am certain that others might think so," I snapped, causing her bottom lip to tremble.

"I'm certain that you will see many attractive females at Vossler's palace," she mumbled sourly. Shaking my head, I closed my eyes and wondered what she was trying to get at.

"I'm going for training not to find my mate if one even exists for me," I stated harshly. Sasha glanced up at me and frowned.

"I love only you, Sasha but I am unworthy to be yours in that capacity," I said briskly.

"I know," she said sullenly then added, "I must wed someone equal to me and who my father agrees with. Being a royal Dire wolf has its downfalls. Even my wolf is a stubborn bitch and sticks to the royal creed." Nodding, I watched her continue to wrap gauze around my bicep.

"Are you still innocent or have you been with someone?" She asked brusquely. My eyes widened at her.

"No, have you?" I responded. Shaking her head she told me that she hadn't and wasn't interested in sex. I started to feel uncomfortable about the topic and told her I needed to pack for my training. A hard knock sounded on my door and Sasha went quickly to open it. My father was standing there looking worried.

"The prince is missing with his rifle. The guards said he ran off after the rogues and was picking them off one after another. Can you go search for him? His father called and wanted him back home,'' Ivan said firmly. Rolling my eyes I nodded as I stood.

"I will go search for him," I grunted in irritation.

"I will come with you!" Sasha offered and I told her no.

"You remain here where you're safe," I said firmly cupping her cheek. I ran my fingers through my hair as I walked past Ivan. He stopped me by grabbing my arm.

"Be careful, they are an unruly lot," he growled low, causing me to grin and nod my head.

"Is the king and his men alright?" I asked and he nodded. Heading back downstairs I remembered the smell of cattle blood in the air prior and figured I'd check on the livestock. When I went outside the king's guards were mulling about and I questioned them if they'd seen the prince. One informed me that he had heard gunfire coming from the east. Gritting my teeth, I thanked him and ran towards the clearing. Pacing myself as I ran, I called out for Gallum and didn't get a response. Shaking my head I ran about a mile further. The scent of blood was thick in the air and Einar told me it was Gallum. Feeling fear for my friend I combed through the tall grassy field as I followed my nose. Even though we had different opinions on things I would never wish him harm, I thought.

"Gallum!" I shouted again and heard a muffled voice from my right. Separating the tall grass, I found the prince.

"They stole my rifle," he muttered hoarsely. I grimaced at his shredded legs and blood loss.

"Come on buddy, I'm going to carry you back," I mumbled sullenly. Lifting his arm I pulled him over my shoulder to piggyback him to the chateau. Gallum whimpered, "I cannot feel my legs." I swallowed uncomfortably and side-eyed him.

"They are pretty fucked up, but we will get you fixed up," I stated.

"Oh Sasha can be my nurse," he mumbled smugly. I snorted, knowing that he would be just fine if she was on his mind.

"Knock it off or I will dump you in the creek," I growled sternly, making him laugh and wince.

"I think that pup I killed is haunting me, that and some huge redhead bitch. She clawed me up and stole my rifle. She told me I should suffer so she didn't shoot me outright. What do you think she meant?" He asked me. Glancing over my shoulder at his confused face I shrugged.

"I'm not sure, she sounds like the same one who clawed my arm and it isn't healing as it should but doesn't look as bad as your injuries do," I mumbled as I thought about it.

"She is half demon and infected you both. You are part demon so it neutralized the poison in your body," Einar informed me. I furrowed my brow as I walked.

"Are you telling me that Gallum will not walk again?" I asked Einar in my mind. He remained tight-muzzled. Shaking my head I felt bad for the prince even though he had brought it on himself it would be hard on him. After walking in silence, I could hear Gallum's labored breathing and quickened my steps. There was no way in hell I was going to let him die on my back. My muscles were aching by the time I saw the chateau.

"Need some help here!" I shouted out to the king's guardsmen. Several rushed toward me and pulled Gallum off my back.

"Take him to the suite upstairs, second door on the right at the start of the hallway. I will show you the way," I heaved out. A was surprised to see Bryce coming toward me.

"Due to the attack, Vossler told me to inform you that you can come later for training after everything has been resolved here," he said firmly. I nodded my thanks as I followed my friend being carried into the chateau. I ran up the stairs ahead of them to open the door to my room and directed them inside. Gallum's eyes were narrowed watching me.

"Lay him on the bed," I ordered. Sasha came quickly inside the bedroom and hissed seeing the prince's injuries. After the guards left I started removing the scraps of torn fabric from his flesh.

"Let him squeeze your hand sister, as I'm sure this is very painful for him," I sighed in regret. Gallum glanced at Sophia and curled his lip slightly. Pausing with a piece of bloody fabric in my fingers, I tore from his blood skin and grinned internally at his eyes going toward the ceiling. Ivan entered with Boris and cursed seeing Gallum's state.

"I am crippled, I can't move my legs," Gallum said sternly, trying hard not to show the devastation I knew he felt. I watched Sophia reach out and brush his brown bangs from his eyes and frown.

"You cannot fault her for her compassionate nature," my wolf growled firmly in my subconscious. Gallum's yellow eyes darted her way and softened as he watched her.

"He cannot have her, she is mine!" I replied to Einar in my mind.

    Zaika's povWatching my daughter vanish with her mate a huge weight lifted from my shoulders. The royal guests shook my hand and gave me their congratulations on retiring at such a young age. Sasha was giggling at me and standing at my side."You make it hard for me to keep my composure, little lady," I whispered to her, making her laugh more. Our son came up and slapped me hard on my back giving me a big grin so I wouldn't lash out at him."Are you and mom leaving right away?"Creasing my brow I glanced over at Billy giving him a questionable look."Do you want us out of your life so quickly? Why is that?" I inquired as he shook his head and snickered."I am just looking forward to visiting you on your island oasis and bringing along Gerald for some skinny dipping," he admitted. Sasha shook her head and hissed," Not on my beach you're not prancing around nude with your mate, Mister!" I chuckled at the disappointed look on our son's face as my father came back from speaking more with

    Zaika's povAfter watching my father fix the mated pair I felt a sense of great relief. The love of my life and I could forget about all the wolf nonsense and enjoy a cocktail on the beach or so I had hoped for.Justin grinned as he passed me to go search for the Moon Goddess and Calli came to stand with Faelon and me. She looked happy and I was glad it worked out for her."Don't have any pups until I'm in my forties," I huffed.Both my father and daughter chuckled at me. Putting my arm around Calli's shoulder I suggested that we go back to the ball. When we entered a commotion was happening in the center of the room. Justin was growling as his Lycan, and arguing with another just as impressive beast. It was somewhat comical seeing that they both were still dressed in their dress suits. The Moon Goddess had her head bent, shaking her head in disappointment. Calli exhaled sharply and rolled her shoulders letting her black wings unfurl as she headed toward the fray. "Guess I better joi

    Calli's povFrustrated beyond measure at the stupidity of the male species and that of the Moon Goddess herself I stormed into my mother's suite to prepare for my future on my terms."How dare she think to dictate to me about my love life!" I growled sourly in my thoughts to my wolf. Char remained quiet as my mother approached me in concern."Calli, sweetie, are you here to get ready?" She asked curiously."Yes and also I'd like Monica to do my hair. I'm not ashamed of my back slits any longer. It's what I am and I will embrace it," I asserted. Nodding my mother brought out my backless gown."I have a lovely necklace that will match perfectly with this gown. Come and let's get you dressed!"Seeing that she was already wearing her dress I assumed the ball would be starting soon and my gut hurt. The Moon Goddess informed me earlier that she would tell the reaper that I was his intended. That grinds my gears. I disliked Atlas and wanted nothing to do with him. My soul belonged to Justin

    Zaika's povHeading to my office the staff rushed past me with big smiles on their faces. The palace staff were running around excited over the dance that was being held. Since I informed them I was tripling their normal pay and they were all invited as well, they were being super vigilant with the arrangements.Focusing on the day's work I turned on the computer to sort through the several emails I'd already received. A few minutes later Sasha came rushing into the office in a tizzy."I can't find our daughter, she isn't in her normal room and no one has seen hide nor hair of her!""Well since Justin's family is staying in his old room, maybe she chose a different suite to stay the night in," I offered and she chewed on her lip."Are you going to be in here working all day? The day is special and you should be enjoying it with our guests. Leave your work and join me to find our children," she suggested. Turning off the computer I stood and smiled at my mate."Have you asked Billy if

    Calli's povWatching the reaper walk past me I tucked my wings around myself. The scent of my mate was still lingering in the air and my heart was racing in my chest. Knowing Justin was seeing me like this was heart-wrenching.Clearing his throat, Justin stepped closer to my back. When he ran his fingers through my feathers a moan came out from me unwillingly. I felt myself getting damp as his fingers continued to explore the monstrosities coming from my back. Jerking my feathers from his grasp I turned and growled at him. The large male just smiled."They are as soft as they look," he said in amazement. "Thanks, I guess. I just want them gone," I muttered bitterly as I stood and crossed my arms. "Did you read my diaries?" Side-eyeing him I shook my head."No, just your academic books," I said softly. Justin exhaled deeply and reached out for one of my hands. I watched him under my lowered lashes to see him having difficulty with his words."I'm sorry for what I said about the reap

    Calli's povMy tears finally ran dry and I couldn't weep any longer. My father stood over me shaking his head."Why don't you come to dinner and eat," he said firmly. Glancing up at him I shook my head."I'm staying here and will wait for Justin. He may return for more of his belongings. Have my meals placed at the broken door," I growled."Do you want to speak with your mother? She is still planning to have a ball, Calli. Maybe you will meet someone else," he suggested. I knew he was trying to help but my heart was shattered and I felt like I was dying."Okay Dad, please go. I will be alright," I responded, giving him a half smile. Grinning back he walked away and I exhaled deeply. Looking around Justin's suite I decided to study the male's interests and also read his books. "Maybe he will admire my mind if he can't trust my words," I mumbled determinedly."He is a big dumb lumbering ox of a man and old to boot," Char growled sourly in my mind. "Yep, I completely agree," I sighed.
