The coronation seemed to Serena like a hazy dream. She drifted from one thing to another, accepting and thanking, pasting a smile on her lips as the crown was placed on her head. The crown felt heavy as if weighing her down with the responsibility it signified. All the while, Dorian’s fingers remained firmly interlocked with hers.    Alpha Gavin did not get much support after Dorian's announcement. Everyone agreed to his proposal. The reassuring smile he shot at her was enough to quell her anxiety for the time being. She tuned out half of what was being said in the ceremony. The piercing sound of applause and cheers made her realize that Dorian was being crowned. And then it was she who was being conferred with the most prestigious title.    The crowd was ecstatic and this feeling was contagious. She vibrated with joy and a

“What the hell are you speaking?” Sedona frowned at the guard. Dorian tried not to throttle the guard. Newly appointed Alpha king and everyone were testing his patience. He curled his fists, reigning in his wolf. The other guard had bowed and was oozing nervousness. The one who was accused was unrepentant. Instead, he glowered at Serena, ignoring both Sedona and Dorian.    Serena, on the other hand, felt numb to her core. How could someone accuse her of killing her mother when she was the one suffering? When someone else had tortured and killed her?    The guard sneered, “I speak the truth. Why else would she disappear? Do you know how much the Augur had to suffer? How much he grieved and mourned for his daughter. Only if this wench wasn’t born.”    “Why?” Ser

Kai was incredibly satisfied and so was Dorian. The ground shook slightly as a golden glow formed in between Serena’s palms. Dorian’s gaze swept across the room as every person’s face had turned from arrogantly proud to absolutely pale. His gaze switched back to his mate. Her eyes were now the color of molten gold. Dorian’s gaze flickered to the person who was soon going to be at the receiving end of Serena’s wrath and supremacy and with cruel satisfaction, he saw how he was trembling. Although it was so minute that someone else might miss it. But not him. He took a peek at everyone’s mind and the majority of them were regretting their decision to support this old piece of shit. “The destruction rune shines brightly and hangs perfectly over your head, Augur,” Serena murmured. Her voice wasn’t the timid, shy one, but it oozed confidence and honestly. Dorian smirked when he heard several sharp intakes of breath and gasps. Even Sedona who had now dared to stand up but kept

  Lips and tongues tangled in a fiery and feverish dance. Dorian pressed her closer against the door, moulding himself almost as he cupped her nape and deepened the kiss, lips coaxing and insistent. The mark tingled, making Serena shiver in pleasure. One of his hands, trailed down, caressing the swell of her left breast, her flank and finally settling on her hips. He squeezed the supple flesh gently. Serena’s head became a ball of cotton while her heart was drumming crazily in her chest. However, with shaky fingers, she began to unbutton Dorian’s dress shirt, while her mate started the process of unzipping her dress.    “Bedroom,” Serena gasped with all the remaining sanity she had as Dorian pulled away with a sharp nip on her bottom lip. The Alpha king readily complied. She yelped when he picked her up, but she didn’t waste time wrapping her legs around his waist. Encirclin

Serena rushed to her father who collapsed on the floor as soon as Jordan let him go. Jordan watched the reunion with baleful eyes before his gaze settled on Dorian who was staring back at him with open hostility. The Alpha King’s gaze flickered to the former Fae King momentarily before they went back up and remained settled on Jordan. “What happened? Are you…are you hurt? Oh my gosh, what happened to your wings?” Serena bombarded the two fae men with question after question as she continued inspecting her wounded father. Vulcan felt too tired to speak, the teleportation having taken much energy away from him than he had fathomed. “I think we should move him to the guest room. I’ll call Viviane.” Dorian proposed. Jordan who had been silent until now murmured his assent. Dorian helped Jordan to pull Vulcan up and practically dragged him to the room because the older man was in no condition to walk, even with help. Serena’s heart clenched as he watched the once regal ki
