Desperate Duchesses Series นิยาย & เรื่องราว

I couldn’t hold back the chuckle in my voice as I spoke, pouring us a hearty glass each from the bottle of whiskey I’d grabbed when I leaned over the bar. She scowled at me, downing her drink. It was a good thing I’d known her as long as I had and that we were as close as we are because otherwise she’d have killed me by now, second or not. An hour and lots of drinking later, I watched her pull out her phone, put it on speaker phone and dial someone, stalking back towards the chapel as she did. Fishnet, Duke and Rogue. THE DUKE “We need to find the guy,” Duchess’ voice was low, homicidal. Even with the crackly line, I could tell just how pissed she was. “At this point, he just deserves a kick

Eynas assisted his queen in her seat. Astra put her face to his face. She looked at him and smiled. "I'm fine" she mumbled and turned her redhead in front of her broods. "Let's welcome, the first heiress of the Erasmus Kingdom!" She growls. "And I declare war among dragons and humans! We will restore our dragon power, the Heart of Magic from them! Scream for me! Scream!" Astra made an extreme growl and all of them made a rumbling sound.

Said the Duchess Sarah's Pov - And now I have understood that the man is actually Rubia's father in the novel and the woman is Rubia's mother, along with the butler Gerome who took care of Rubia when she was young... This place is the Charleston Dukedom. "So, you are the Duke of Charleston...?" asked Sarah "Yes, and this is my wife, your mother the Duchess of Charleston Dear." Answered the Duke Sarah's Pov - The man seemed to have silver hair and blue eyes and the woman had pink hair and green eyes. Honestly, they were down to earth beautiful! But, right now… All I want to do is sleep. I will leave the thinking for after I wake up. If I do. TO BE CONTINUED...

“Nothing is more important than family, Ian. Nothing beats family.” I groaned inwardly. I was more than aware of the fact that the purpose of Desire’s whole act was for her to get enough talking time with me. Even with nearly ten years below me, she took pains to lecture me on whatever she sincerely felt I needed to know. And I could bet there was a lot I needed to know swimming about in her head, right now. “Are you set?” I asked, getting up. “Sure.” “Ian, who’s the lady?” She asked, immediately we stepped outside the house. “Desire, lets do the talking in the car.” I said, resignedly.

“Impressive restraint back there. I almost thought you’d break your little toy in half.” Lucifer’s voice coiled in my mind, sharp with warning. ‘That’s no toy. That’s his duchess. A bargaining chip… or bait.’ Draven’s smirk deepened. “Come inside, Vladimyr. Or should I bring your mate back out for another round?” The duchess flinched under his grip, and for a heartbeat, I saw something else in her—fear sharpened into a silent plea. My stake was still slick with my blood. My rage burned hotter than Lucifer’s shadow.

The music behind me was too soft, too elegant for my mood. Below, the nobles danced like the world was theirs. Inside, Gloria Wintermellon smirked like her spine was carved from ancient entitlement. And me? I was trying not to electrocute the palace chandelier because where the hell was Alaric? Then—footsteps. Slow. Heavy. Familiar. I didn’t turn. “If you’re coming to explain why a duchess in emeralds just claimed you like a family heirloom, don’t bother.”

“Because even if the Moon goddess has a cruel sense of humor and gives you a wolf, no Alpha will ever want you. Especially not Volvo.” The name alone sent a tremor through me, “I don’t want your Volvo or whatever you call him.” “I can see it in your eyes. Your stealth desires to make him choose you,” She paused, “Wait a minute. Why am I wasting time with you lunatic. I can stake my life that no Alpha can accept an omega as mate, not the less a cheap, cursed ghost.” I tried to hold my feet in place as the words pierced my chest like a cursed blade. I remained silent to avoid a slap from those itching hands of Amelia.

Babi ordered her usual sandwich “I will never get enough of this sandwich. I just love it.” Franchesca said with a delighted mood. In a short period Babi and Frencheska have become really close to each other. They have developed a bond that every girl needs in her life. Babi knows and everything about Frencheska like how her past boyfriend ditched her and how she took her revenge. She is no simple girl who loves to treat people with the sham shit they deserve. She is a tall blonde girl with beautiful green eyes and short bob hair.

I said to her, expecting that it could be changed. “Every maid dresses like that, that’s how they want it.” She said. We toured around the beautiful mansion. She showed me the pictures of the family and their names, which I am not supposed to forget. I also got introduced to other maids and servants in the mansion. They came back from college angry, they seemed to had been annoyed today. “This is a good time to introduce you to them” the head housemaid said to me at the quarters. “They’re upset, is this really a good time?” I asked. She nodded and we went to their rooms. First we went to Nate’s room but he wasn’t in his. At Jack’s room, Nate was there with him.

My dragon clawed around the base of the tree wanting to finish the job. “Why are you here?” As much as my hunch told me they were looking for Odessa, I didn’t want to believe it. Maybe they were hunting someone else. “Some slave to the Duke in Vamparia,” he rasped. “Please let me go.” I snarled, my fire burning into my neck. “What slave?” I pushed. “A girl named Odessa. She is the Duke’s old blood bag. She is supposed to become the duchess. Taking her as a mate,” his breathing labored, spat out blood from his mouth. Blood pooled at the base of the tree, surely a gash in his gut.
