Romans & histoires From Substitute To Queen

The crowd, filled with reverence and loyalty, bowed their heads in acknowledgment of Capo’s words. “My dear people,” Capo began, his voice resonating with authority, “I have always believed that our strength as a family comes from the women in our lives. While my beloved wife may have tragically departed, fate has blessed us with a new queen. Margarita, the protectress of our legacy. I entrust her to your care, to be shielded and cherished as you would protect your king.”

His sharp eyes snap to mine, but before he can reply, the king waves the queen away. “No, not a member of the Vilkas family by blood… but still a part of this family. I would like everyone to look towards the miracle of your chosen queen! Luna Princess Evangeline Vilkas is our true queen, the ruler who will ascend my throne when I step down!” Alpha Ambrose says clearly. The shock on their faces is something I won’t ever forget; Celia’s face has dropped, and I can see the shock and jealousy that’s written all over it, but it’s Sinclair’s face that makes my gaze falter upon him.

As a Don forged in gunfire and blood, he knew exactly what would happen to me after that push. The entire world mocked my foolish devotion, painfully clear in the cold rain of that night. I finally understood. I was Serena’s substitute. His plaything. Everything except a human being. Yet I no longer cared. If it meant getting my daughter back, I would do anything. I stumbled forward and took that cold, trembling little body from the masked thug’s hands, clutching her tightly against my chest. The warmth we shared in that moment—mother and daughter pressed together—was the last comfort I had left.

Sarah hurriedly pressed the answer button and shot Adrian a look, signaling him to be quiet. “Hello?” On the other end of the line was her assistant, Clara, her voice brimming with urgency. “Sister Sarah, please come back right away! The CEO from headquarters has suddenly arrived, and we’re supposed to submit the contract as agreed!” Sarah’s expression turned serious, her pretty little face full of determination. “I’ll be back at the office right away. Wait for me!” Sarah hung up the phone and was just about to turn around to tell Adrian when he suddenly wrapped his arms around her from behind. He rested his chin possessively in the crook of her neck, his elegant jawline tickling her collarb

The kingdom, veiled in mystery and magic, embraced its new ruler with a promise that echoed through the moonlit night—a promise to safeguard the wisdom, the legacy, and the extraordinary destiny that now rested upon Jette's shoulders. In Lupine Sovereignty, under the moon's benevolent glow, Jette stood as the Queen—a guardian, a sovereign, and a custodian of the lupine legacy that transcended the boundaries of the ordinary. The realm pulsated with the magic of recognition, and Jette, now embraced by her lupine kin, prepared to lead with a heart attuned to the symphony of the extraordinary.

"Nice to meet you, Maria." Maria smiled back at me. "It's nice to meet you too, Queen," she said, "I've heard a lot about you from Roberto." I felt a twinge of discomfort at her words. I didn't want to be Roberto's Queen, I didn't want to be here at all."Please call me Cassandra," I corrected her with a kind smile. Maria nodded. "Of course, Luna Cassandra," she said, a small smile on her lips. "His Majesty would be angry with me if I didn't address you correctly."

“Is the agency keeping the rights that comes with the Masked Queen, are we going to have a new Masked Queen now that you’re leaving, do you know who it will be?” Letting out a snort, she replies. “Wow hawk-guy, looks like there’s a lot on your mind.” She chuckles and I force a small laugh along with her. “No, they’re not going to have a new Queen. It was a hard, long, and gruelling fight but I was able to retain the rights of the Masked Queen. And yes, at some point I will reveal my identity but right now, it’s not that time.” “F**king wow!”

It is not good if he is always the one who gives in. Deianne keeps on walking back and forth inside the bathroom in their bedroom. She had already changed her clothes and removed her make-up. She should have gone downstairs, but her feet couldn't just take her to go out of the bathroom. She is too tense and anxious. When she agreed to be the substitute bride for her twin sister and for her parents, she was aware that the Montañez would eventually demand an heir. But she never thought that it would happen this fast. She thought that she could at least stretch the time to at least a year until Daniella comes back (hopefully, she is found) and Daniella would be the one who would bear the child,

“The Watchers promised isolation.” “The Watchers promised containment,” he corrected lightly, gesturing to our respective cells. “And here we are, most thoroughly contained. They are brilliant logicians, but terribly literal. They separated the constants. They just failed to account for the variables.” He leaned forward, his gaze intensifying. “And you, my dear, are the most fascinating variable of all. Sze.” Hearing my name on his lips felt like a violation. “You know me.” “Oh, I feel as if I know you quite well,” he said, his smile turning conspiratorial. “The Storm-Bringer. The Queen who chose love over a throne. One half of the legendary Sze-Kairi Paradox. I’ve been an avid follower of y

"For disrespect to your Luna." "Bring her here," I demanded. "Now." Twenty minutes later, the guards escorted a disheveled Cassie into our home. She looked between us frantically. "Alpha! Luna wants to exile me from the pack!" Ethan's face was a mask of conflict. "Cassie, you need to apologize to Selene. She is Luna of this pack." Cassie's eyes widened in betrayal, but seeing no support from Ethan, she dropped to her knees before me.
