All Chapters of Rogues and Royals: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Adam’s POV“Where to, governor?” The hackney driver asked as I sat the princess down in the seat.“London. I know it’s a bit far, but I’ll triple your rate if you get us there within the hour.” I knew it would be impossible to follow us by scent in the busy city, all the other rogues and bodies of humans would make even the best of trackers feint. I’d take another cab when I got there to about a few blocks from my den and then I’d be home free.“Alrighty then! Buckle yer britches!” The driver grinned as he gunned it, burning rubber and pulling off like the devil was on his heals. The road sped by and the drugs were in full effect now, making my head turn and spin as the lights danced by. “Were you at some fancy dress party or what have ya?”“You could say that.” I answered him, the princess lulling her head onto my shoulder and letting out the most unloads like snore ever. “And this one went and got herself sloshed; so I thought it best to get us home.”“Yah? Wedding then? Explains th

Adam’s POV My gaze traveled over the Princess and settled on her wrist, the stone winking at me from its golden cage. I saw her face get beet red with indignation as she huffed and crossed her arms. “How dare you think I’d sleep with you after that?” “What?” I did a double take and then chuckled, shaking my head and sighing. “Like I said, treasure, I’m not that type of male. I was insinuating the stone.” I pointed to her wrist, watching her eyes go wide. “I’d rather you take me back there than give you that.” Her voice became ice cold, her eyes narrowing at me with anger. “Fated mate or not; that’s never going to happen.” “You realize they were planning to kill ya?” I asked her. “Kill you and capture the Goddess apparently.” I shrugged a little, seeing her start to panic a little. “Leave it with me and I’ll get ya home safe and sound. They don’t know who I am, and the stone will be in safe hands.” “Ha! Yah right.” She gave the shackle a tug again, not making me budge even a

Ada’s POV“Is a tour! These us the backways cross London and all; ya see tons of great sights here!” He beamed at us, his eyes turning from Addison to focus on the alley again. “Right up ‘er is a private club that all’th young pups come to.”“Does he really think we’ll fall for this?” Grace snickered through the link, trying to hide her grin.“We need to be on our guard; we don’t know how many are there. And he seems confident, so I’m guessing we aren’t the only ones he’s done this to.” Addison opened her clutch to get ready, the driver still not expecting a thing.When we got closer to the building, he accelerated all of the sudden and aimed for a garage door that swung open, males waiting on the other side with collars and chains. “Sorry, ladies; but yer toll is due!” The driver snickered. We waisted no time though as Addison punched him square in the face as she pushed open her door forcefully, slamming it into the first male by us.Abby opened her door as well and pulled Grace alo

Adam’s POV I heard a knock from downstairs at my front door and dried off, wrapping the towel around my waist and opening the bathroom door and heading out as the steam from my hot shower billowed around me. The princess was sitting on the bed and not looking at me at all, her face flushed and her hands in her lap. I took a look around and noted the top drawer of my nightstand was slightly askew and the whole thing off by a couple degrees. “Like what you found?” I grinned at her, seeing her face turn a shade darker. I kept condoms and some magazines in the last drawer, something I was sure she happened to find. “Don’t know what you mean.” She mumbled as I chuckled a little. “Sure you don’t, princess.” I turned from her and pressed the button on my com system I had near my door, checking my front camera. “Dublin; come in and help yourself to some food. I’ll be right down.” I buzzed him in from there and let my towel drop to the floor, putting on clean clothing and watch

Adam’s POVI watched her take a hesitant step outside of my bedroom as the chain from her wrist trailed behind her. “Come on, the coffee’s gettin’ cold.” I turned from her so she wouldn’t see my slight smile; or the bulge in my pants. I hated to admit it, but seeing her in my clothing did something to me. It was like I had claimed her and she accepted in a way.I picked up my phone and pulled up my security app, changing the password as she joined me. “There. No more getting out for you.” I placed a cup of coffee in front of her, watching her eye it with distrust. “If I was gonna kill ya or somethin’ else, I’d’ve done it by now.” I pointed out to her. She gingerly took up the glass and took a sip, making a face. “What now? Is it not sweet enough for the princess?” I chuckled.“Actually, I take my coffee black.” She sipped again, this time trying to hide her distaste.I reached over and took the cup from her hand, giving her mine. “Here. Take m-“ I noticed the charred skin on her finge
