All Chapters of Bride of the Sea-King Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

LyraMy husband is not even undressed yet, and I’ve already let loose an explosive orgasm. I guess that’s what happens when I hold back for weeks, always getting started but then backing off, afraid I’m going to scream his name so loud it echoes all over the forest, while my mother and sister are lying there horrified in their tent.Yes, I guess that’s what happens when I hold back what I really feel.But not anymore. I’ve barely stopped quivering from it when I grab his arm and pull him toward me, tugging at the button on his pants. I guess he’s decided I’ve had enough, or maybe it’s that he’s so stiff he’s about to burst, so he can’t play hard to get anymore.His manhood just about spills out of his pants the moment I unbutton him, and he is just inches away from where I want him. I take it in my hand, and it’s almost like a rock, it’s so hard. I guide him over to my entrance, and he doesn’t stop me, not when I rub it against my wet entrance.He doesn’t need much convincing after th

Cassian‘What the hell is going on?’ I demand in the mind-link. It’s the first time I’ve been able to speak to my Beta in weeks.It’s been a long trip back from the Winter Realm. I was hoping our first sight of land would bring relief. Instead, a rage of panic is building in me. We’re not close enough to see whether the smoke is coming from the castle or somewhere in the city.Either way, that bastard Assanan is going to pay.‘They barreled through our defenses like Titans,’ Turgan replies.I don’t need any explanation to know who ‘they’ are.‘The north end of the city is in flames,’ he continues. ‘We evacuated all residents into the safe zone before the invasion began, so there are no civilian casualties.’Lyra hears all this as well, and she looks at me with relief in her eyes. But I’ve caught the one word he’d emphasized. ‘Civilian....’‘Yes,’ he tells me, pausing before continuing. ‘We lost three thousand warriors in the initial assault. Cassian, it’s like their warriors are made

CassianGlancing around the room, I notice one face missing among the council members. An ache forms in my gut, wondering whether he was one of the thousands lost in battle.“Phelan has gone to the safe zone to guard your mother,” Darragh explains, reading my concern, as usual. As one of our eldest councilmen, he knows me well, from far back in my childhood.Relief floods over me. Though Phelan is getting older, I am certain he would give his life for my mother’s safety. They have known each other for many years and have developed a fond friendship of late. They both share the grief of my father’s loss—Phelan as my father’s former Beta and my mother as his queen and mate.Sometimes when Phelan is near, my mother even seems more lucid.“Congratulations on your marriage to our Luna Queen,” Darragh continues. “I have no doubt she will enrich our communities with her leadership.”Cheers of agreement ring out around the table. They all seem sincere. I know that in my absence, Darragh has e

LyraThe room shakes, and everything surrounding me fades into a searing bright light. I want to cover my eyes with my hands, but the amulet won’t let me pull my right hand away. It has locked on with a death grip.“Cassian!” My voice doesn’t even sound like it’s coming out of my throat. It echoes through the light, bouncing off the corners as the room starts to spin.I don’t see him anywhere, and I don’t even feel him anymore.And just as quickly as it started, the spinning comes to a halt.But we’re not in the room anymore.I’m aware of the birdsong first, high-pitched, casual chirps surrounding me. It’s then that I realize I’m in a forest, thick with green shrubbery and bright purple orchids growing from giant ferns. A stream trickles by me, crystal clear, its creek bed lined with polished gemstones.“Freyja?”“Do not be afraid.” It’s Freyja’s voice, but it sounds so far away, until I turn and find her standing right beside me, her shimmering robes brushing against the forest floor

LyraI watch Cassian run down the hallway, feeling like a fool standing here with my mouth half open. What just happened? What about all that talk of us working together to overcome this threat? It’s my biological father attacking us. I’m the one who must use the amulet.Why in the world is he shutting me out?“Luna Queen.”Healer Elara’s voice is quiet, and I turn around, having half-forgotten she was here.“If you’ll allow me to draw the blood,” she says apologetically, “I can begin the tests. It is perhaps better to have this information about your health now, for the baby’s sake.”The last few words convince me. “Of course.”I follow her back into the exam room and roll up my sleeve. A thousand worries pass through my mind, so many I don’t even feel the needle when she inserts it into my vein.I just found out I was pregnant. This should be one of the happiest moments in our lives. Granted, there is a lot going on in the kingdom and we don’t have time to celebrate as a couple. We’
