All Chapters of RISEN: THE LYCAN PRINCESS: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Asteria D´AngeloWith everything ready, Stavros took us to the royal portal, and we stepped into it with our royal cards. Zane´s was brand new, and I loved the way he proudly presented it. Knowing that he got to experience what a real family, real love, security, and happiness were would bring me comfort if the mission fails.I laced my fingers in his and smiled. The royal portal in the vampire realm took us to one of the safest areas in the realm, close to Sergei´s castle. I looked around and saw a cab. I raised my hand, and the vehicle stopped."Where to?" he asked,Zane looked at me and he smiled. "Can you take us to The Crimson Velvet, please?" I said, and he nodded. "Fancy hotel..." he said, and we nodded. "Not from around here..." The man locked eyes with me in his direction, and Zane noticed. Zane hissed, and the man then looked at him."She is not even a vampire," he said, and I rolled my eyes. It was not rocket science that I was not a fucking vampire, starting with my lack o

King SergeiEverything in this realm is interconnected, and I can feel the energy of the place. I have tried to live in peace for the last century, and when Helia showed up, my entire life and the energy of this place were renewed. The only thing that plagued my mind and filled it with nightmares was Scarlett, not knowing what happened to her, even when I had searched for her, she vanished into thin air.I came to terms with the fact that my sister was long gone, that any search and rescue efforts on my end would be futile, because deep down, I couldn´t feel her... not anymore.Scarlett, my baby sister, the Princess of this realm, and the hope for our bloodline, vanished... and even when I looked for her for many years, the reality that she would never be back sank in after so many futile attempts. Now I have learned to live with the void and the questions. Whatever happened to my sister, whatever happened to her mate, is a huge incognita that I will have

Asteria D'AngeloBy lunchtime, we got a call; it was Sergei's driver picking us up. I answered the call, and minutes later, we were heading down to the lobby."Your majesties," The older-looking vampire greeted us. And by older looking, I mean ancient. Vampires age at a very slow pace; they can live thousands of years and look in their prime. Well, this one certainly has seen better days.He opened the door, and Zane gave him a slight nod."Your Majesty, you are a Lycan princess... King Sergei asked me to drive you around during your stay, and maybe you could accept vampire guards to protect you," he said, and I smiled."I appreciate the offer, and I will discuss it with the king during lunch," I said, and he nodded.Zane laced his fingers with mine, and we remained silent for the rest of our drive. The castle was not too far away from the hotel, so there was no need for chit-chat. The vampire realm had a gloomy beauty very particular to the

King Sergei The moment I scented his blood, I knew it. He was not an ordinary vampire; he had royal blood, my lineage. The moment I tasted a drop of his blood, I could go back several years and trace the type of life he had lived, where he came from, but the only thing I could see was white walls, lab coats, and a simple bedroom that was more of a cage than a bedroom. I had to know, I had to see it for myself, so I took another blood, before I could come to the present, the more blood I took, the further into his journey I could go. I took another drop of blood, and then I saw her, my sister, and her mate... I could go as far back as two generations, but I had enough evidence: Zane was Ziva and Zion´s son, my nephew, the heir to the vampire kingdom. What happened to my sister? I focused, and then I saw it... one night, hunters, Zion died protecting his family, and Ziva and the child were taken away... My stomach

Elisa D´AngeloAsteria left for the Vampire Realm with Zane, and the first night I spent with my mates at the cabin was intense. Somehow, I wanted to take things slowly, and yet it felt right to be with them, in more intimate ways than just kissing or holding hands.It felt right, but also deep down, I was still trying to cope with the idea of being mated to so many men. All of them from different bloodlines. Could it be that I am the woman who will reunite those three bloodlines? I have no idea,After the intense night and the even more intense morning. My mates prepared a bath for me and allowed me to have a moment to regroup. They could feel I was confused and vulnerable, and somehow they were attuned to me in such a way that they knew when to pull back and slow down.My body felt different, having so many hands touching my skin, eliciting all those sensations that sent me to heaven and back, had left my body tender and sensitive unexpectedly.
