I Will Protect The Duke This Time Novels & Stories

"Yeah. But he could be worse." She rolled her eyes. "Don't mind him, River. If he really wants to fight with a woman, I'll give it to him. He is getting on my nerves, also. I’m not scared of his muscles or his position in this kingdom. I fear no one. Nothing holds dear to me anymore." I sighed. "Dawn. You don't have to fight." "I will if it means protecting you, River. You are like a sister to me. You saved me from Master Henderson. I will forever be indebted to you. Anyways, Beta Valentine will be back in a minute, and we have to move fast. Let's look for the secret door."

They inclined their necks in submission. I dialed Jackson’s number and called him to the lodge. “Find her…” I growled. “Or I am going to kill every guard out here.” Duke wanted to go on a killing spree. He wanted to come out and hunt for his mate. ‘You lost her!’ Duke accused me. ‘I want her. Go get her!’ I grew restless with each passing minute. When the first guard walked in with negative news, fury exploded. I wrapped my fingers around his neck, lifted him in the air, and hurled him against a wall. The wall cracked on impact as the guard screamed and fell on the floor, unconscious.

And information gathering is an easy task. "But in your case dad, you won't die not fighting back. Our responsibility is our reason to fight. That's why I'm pretending to be a human, to know why we must protect them. And I had found one, and I learned it the hard way, at the cost of someone's life too." Sebastian seems amused at her answer. "So it's settled then, master." "Wait, what's settled?" Daniel butts in from the conversation. Cass looks at her father, while Daniel was looking at Sebastian, demanding an answer.

Duke falls to the ground, totally unaware but he rolls over and hits me on my face and I let go, falling. “Now you want to play? Good, I love a good play time,” he sneers. I crunch into a fighting stance and smile. “oh you have no idea how much I have been holding back from doing this,” I smile and he starts to look unsure. “Don’t worry little duke, I will take you to Lana, and you can be with her forever.” And then run towards him. my torso slides on the floor, arms keeping me steady as my legs lock around his neck.

“Yes, you aren’t looking at this rationally; it wasn’t her fault. She was in shock, as many of us were. It was a natural reaction, and Duke knew that. That’s why he was keeping such a close eye on Colton. “He knew that she wouldn’t be watching, and he took it on himself to do it. He loved her, you know? He told me so. She was like one of the guys to him. “My point being that he protected those he loved. He was fiercely loyal and you know that. He chose to trade his life for hers, and I’m proud of him for that. He did what he thought was right. I believe it was the right thing to do as well. The question is, are you going to waste this opportunity? Are you going let the person go that your br

Almost immediately, the duke then lifted the king and threw him as far away as he could from the queen. With agonizing eyes, Greg tried to help Lucianne sit up as gently as possible, and when he heard a disgruntled growl and saw Xandar getting back up again, shifting as he did so, the duke barked out his order to his followers, “WE SWORE ALLEGIANCE TO THE QUEEN, NOT THE KING! PROTECT HER AT ALL COST!” Christian came over, and Greg pushed aside his reluctance to speak to a Blackfur and told him, “Stay with her.” He then joined his people and shifted to stop his idiotic cousin.

“You poor lady, having to stay with a freak.” She instantly hopped off the horse and stood by the duke's side, glaring at the man who hit her, “What did you just call the duke with?” “How dare you harm my duchess!” Yelled Duke Raziel at the man. Lady Vienna was about to launch and unsheath her sword but Duke Raziel grabbed her arm and ordered, “Huxley, take her inside and control this crowd. I have to go to the guild. Make sure to protect her.”

Ryan was instantly silenced, his mouth opening and closing like a fish gasping for air. I looked directly at Marcus, the man I had once thought I loved more than life itself. "Marcus, I came down here not because I can't bear to leave you, but because I wanted to say some things to your face. Things you need to hear." Marcus's eyes filled with desperate hope again. "I, Catherine Blackwood, am a Duke's daughter who was beloved and cherished from the moment I was born. But because I was blind and stupid enough to fall for you, you trampled my dignity into the dirt and let a servant lord over me like I was nothing."

"We are the only ones who have the right to open the door of our master's car. Please step aside." When a mere security guard grabbed Hunter's hand, Hunter felt very angry in his heart. He controlled himself and said with a smile, "Of course, their protection is the most important thing." Hunter stepped back two steps. When the security guard opened the car door, Xavier and Duke got out of the car. Seeing the Duke, Hunter clenched his fists in anger because it was not the person he had been waiting for. Duke was wearing a realistic mask and had a stick in his hand, so Hunter thought it was his crippled murderer grandson, not the great businessman Duke Winters.

"If you would excuse us." The kingsman – Edmund – bowed too. First to the King, "Your Majesty," then to the Duke. "Your Grace." When he turned to them, he said. "My Ladies, this way, if you please." The Duke stepped closer to her and whispered. "Do not take his words to heart; he enjoys the misery of others." She nodded impulsively. He tapped her hand and squeezed her thumb for a brief second. Beth raised her eyes to look at him, holding his intense gaze. "You are safe here."
