The trap we knew

Tilly P.O.V.We land in the lower of part of the capital, Rue pointing to the palace with a sad smile. I know what she means; we need to get to the castle to get to the bottom of this mess. We move into a shadow as footsteps approach from behind us, and a group of 6 royal warriors runs past, weapons out. Up ahead the sky is filled with fighting dragons, some with the royal emblem on their armor, some with nothing, and again some with an emblem I don’t know. Rue follows my gaze to the sky and sighs. “Volkov is trying to overtake the throne by force it seems. That is his family’s seal.” She says, shaking her head. “Are you sure it’s Volkov and not someone else from the family trying their luck now that he has been exposed?” Oloron asks, looking at Odomu. “We don’t know, honestly. They just flew in, in hordes, and started attacking. The Queen, bless her soul, is mad. Sorry Princess.” He looks at Rue, who shakes her head again. “And no one knows where Crown Princess Vecura is? We have

Finding a way

Tilly P.O.V.We stay in the room with Rue’s dead mother overnight, Rue keeping a silent vigil at her mother’s side, Elias beside her, his hand always on her back or holding her hand. Oloron quietly explained how he was able to use his magic to fill the void the dragon enchantress was making, but he had no idea it would be this volatile. None of us are without scratches or what’s worse, and Elias is worst of all. He still has deep cuts and wounds that refuse to heal no matter what Oloron does or how much his wolf tries to help him.At some point during the night I noticed how pale he was and wanted to have him lay down, but he refused to leave his mate's side, even when she told him to go and rest. He stubbornly stayed by her side, saying it’s not so bad, and we should focus on a plan instead of him. He is right, but I’m worried, and I keep making mistakes. We’re in this mess because I didn’t ask Oloron to check the door for magical traps, and Elias is deeply wounded without anything

I, spy (Part one)

Miriam P.O.V. After my little interaction with the irksome Beta of Gold Moon, I teleport back to the Nocturn court, needing to speak to Henri urgently. If they crowned Athena, why wasn’t I informed immediately? They know I must know when things happen so I can act accordingly, and if Henri just let that bitch take over MY throne. I take a deep breath outside the door before knocking. They don’t know who I really am, nor that I have a rightful claim to the throne, and they do not need to either. It’s going to be the surprise of the century when I take the throne for myself, sitting as a reigning Queen of all, but first I need to make sure Henri still tells me everything, and along the way he is going to be eliminated along with his stupid family. When I don’t need them anymore, they are dead. A servant shows me into the living area as usual with a blank expression, and I cross my arms when Henri and his wife just greets me lazily. They ask me to sit down, and I’m offered a cup of te

I, spy (Part two)

Miriam P.O.V.I open the door to the waiting chamber, looking to see if there’s any servants waiting for me or the family. There isn’t, so I slip out and quickly make my way through the room and out the next door as well. In the grand hallway I take a deep breath, clapping myself on the shoulder for my genius thinking, and start walking in the direction of the library. I need to see if I can catch Lilith in the act of betraying her family, or maybe even spread some more rumors now that I’m here. I keep my head high, the way I’ve watched young noble women do for so many years, and my composure tight as if I’ve got important things to do. At the end of the private wing hallway I run into Drake, who looks like he has something else on his mind and doesn’t notice me. I walk around him, trying to make sure it stays that way, but he stops midtrack behind me and for a second I think he is going to call me to him and ask what I’m doing there. He doesn’t and I do not look in his direction be

Stepping up

Tilly P.O.V.Rue leads us out into the hallway, in through another door across the way and through a secret passway, grabbing my hand and asking me to trust her. I do, and she leads me through the penetrating darkness in the secret tunnel with expert ease, and long practice. “We used to play in here, and later I realized our nannies made up the games so we would know the secret tunnels and ways as the back of our hands. Curi knows them as well as I, and we were learning Hall about them when everything changed.” Rue quietly explains as the floor suddenly moves upwards. She opens a door up ahead of us and the early morning wind throws my hair back, shaking the old smell of the tunnels from my clothes and body. I look out and see that we’re at the top of a tower, and when I look at Rue she gives me a small smile and shifts into her dragon. It gets down on its paws, making a sort of stair for me to climb on. I swallow carefully before I slowly make my way behind her wings, grabbing onto

My badass Beta

Athena P.O.V.We’ve been waiting for news since the shadows told me they arrived safely at the Capital. Caspian has been trying to keep me occupied with different tasks, and smalltalk, but my thoughts keep going back to my Beta and her group and what is going on. I wish I was there, and at the same time I also know the time I spend here with my people, with the vampires, is really valuable as well. They seem to have accepted the fact that Caspian has chosen me, and most meet with open faces and smiles. Even when we announced that our main base is going to be in the Umbral Moon pack, and Drake and Iloni are going to be governing the throne for us there. A lot of courtiers came back with questions about being able to take up residence in my pack, and I told them I was working with the High Council about expanding my pack area to create more space for living arrangements, but as for now we only have space for some, not all of them. They seemed to understand and said they would visit a

Vecura the first

Athena P.O.V.Rue turns slightly red, trying not to look like a deer caught in a headlight. I must give it to her, although she seems kind of embarrassed, her excited energy does not vanish, she just composes herself, and launches into a questionnaire for the elderly lady instead, until her sister once again stops her. By now the entire plateau is laughing or giggling because of her happy nature, and the tension has eased considerably. “Please stop kneeling. I thank you for all your help. Without you I don’t know if we would have survived.” Vecura says, helping the elderly lady to her feet. “If I must ask your name?” “My name, my Queen, is Eslina, and I’m the headwoman of the Cilestra tribe. It was our pleasure to once again aid the reigning Queen of Draconia.” The girls exchange a look, then look back at Eslina. I also wonder about the name she gave the dragonlands. It makes sense considering what their Capital is called, but then again, I don’t think, and from the girls' confused

The price of life

Caspian P.O.V.The moment Athena lands in the dragon lands I know where she is and send word to our people in the nearest tribe. We have worked silently, but hard, to establish contacts in different hidden dragon factions since we rescued Rue and her people. It’s been one step forward and two back, but the groups have been resilient with their search and steady in their diplomatic approach when meeting with wild dragons, and then they send word they had made contact with a tribe called the Cilestra tribe, and another came right after that they had been welcomed by the Illumi tribe, and another again right after that - in total we made 8 contacts and all 8 welcomed our people into their homes to hear us out. I knew the Cilestra tribe would be the closest from memory, as I had studied the map over the dragon lands the most out of Thena and I. She and I were the only ones knowing we were doing this, not even our parents had been involved in the decision this time, both of us feeling lik

Here, there, everywhere

Athena P.O.V.The throne stops blinding us, and Vecura pants a little on it, but otherwise she seems alright. I’m about to walk forward to congratulate her when my matebond shifts, my heart clenches painfully and I lose my breath completely, going down on my knees. My hands are on my chest, my eyes closed too hard it hurts, and I see Caspian going through a portal looking thing, but the surroundings are not familiar, but familiar anyway. I can’t quite place it when Alessa howls in my mind, growling he has gone through the entryway to the wolf spirit realm. I gasp to breath normally, the pain settling to a beating ache in my heart, the matebond pulsing. I scream at him internally, and only get a vague response back, showing he is too far away. For fuck sake! I can’t fucking leave that man alone for more than 5 minutes at a time or he will die on me, or do shit like this. I swear when I get a hold of him again, I’m chaining him to me for good, and he HAS to go where I’m going. No more

Nothing but; fuck (part one)

Caspian P.O.V.Athena disappears from the wolf spirit realm with Elias, and I stand back with the weirdest feeling coursing through my body. Behind me a wolf growls, and when I turn around, Alessa is standing there, her eyes glowing faintly. She shakes out her fur, coming to stand protectively beside me as a wolf spirit slowly walks towards us. The wolf turns around as Alessa warns him with a low rumble, showing her teeth. “What’s going on? Why didn’t I go with them?” I ask, looking down at my body in confusion. ‘Not here. Come on.’ She says in my mind, walking up to the entryway. ‘Hand on me, and follow quickly.’ She continued, her voice strained. I do as she says, following her through the entryway with my hand in her soft lush fur. The portal part of the entryway glides over me, but it feels like it’s trying to hold me back this time. It’s not possible though, the journey back to the meadow going slower than the way inside because of the resistance of the entryway. “I can’t wa
