Marquess Raid Novels & Stories

His words left dread dropping to their stomach as Xaden ran to Maya, holding her shoulders with urgency in his words. “We have just been raided. We’ve been found out. And now, Maverick and Derek are leading Korak’s army, and they are here.” They found them! . . . . .

Getting betrayed by your kind was mind-boggling. "Even if you have intermediaries you must have an idea of how they operate," I said "Erm. I only do research work, nothing else." He insisted "There has been a recent attack on a small pack around here, my betas mate was kidnapped but luckily she escaped," Mark growled and the prisoner moved backward pinning his back against the wall. "There is a rumor that they are camping some miles from here, we want to attack but we need the element of surprise and some information before we do that."

"Blackwood, you've given me a lot of problems. But this is where it ends. Xander's jaw tightened as he stepped in front of his family. "Leave them alone if you want me." Marquez gave a gloomy laugh. "After everything you've done, do you really think I'd let them go? No, you are all going to die now. A thunderous roar erupted in the air as Marquez lifted his hand to notify his troops. The assailants were blinded by the searchlight of a military chopper that swooped in. Marquez's troops were swiftly overcome by soldiers who rappelled down with their rifles drawn.

They didn’t even use vehicles, at his command they began marching out to battle, weaponry at the ready. Jude and I kept towards the back as Marc rallied his troops. The alliance would love to hear of a member declaring war for personal gain…what was he thinking. Putting an alliance at risk of corruption doubt because he wanted Kaia. Kaia…why did he damn think he could marry her…he obviously hadn’t been in talks with Beckett for long...she was still married to Than. We keep walking until we come towards a dense woods, Marc shouting back to us that the contested pack lands were on the other side of the woods.

The air was thick with tension, and I could feel the hostility radiating from both sides. One of Rowan’s men, clearly the leader, stepped forward with a hard expression. I recognized him from the day when Rowan had marked me forcefully. He was standing on the side with a grin plastered on his face as he saw me screaming in pain. “Alpha Darius,” he said and bowed to him, while glancing at me. “I am Gamma Mark. Alpha Rowan has sent me as his emissary. We’ve come for Liana,” he said. “Alpha Rowan demands her return.”

Not even my own mother. They said I was traumatized by the father's death. Delusional. A liar. They thought he had no reason to kill father and an assassin must have done it. And when I kept insisting, they called me cursed. Mad. The Mad Prince of NightWalker. And when I became king they upgraded the title to the Mad king. I never forgot that betrayal and I wore the title like an armour. I watched. I waited. And on the day of my coronation ceremony, I drove a dagger of my own into that traitor’s chest—this time in front of the same Elders and Pack members who once mocked me.

It took Mark and his troop a few more hours to reach us. The soothing effects of the brandy wore off just before he marched into the courtyard. My body was so tense I could barely move to greet him. Grateful for their presence, I positioned myself between Jack and Drake for support and comfort. Without any pretense of civility, Mark immediately cut to the quick. “You have something of mine. I’ve come to get it back,” he said in a demanding and arrogant tone.

"If we're on the water, then we're vulnerable, so the boat has the power to get us far away from any threats very quickly, and if there's any we can't outrun, then Captain Wales and his crew are more than capable of fighting off any threats. He's an ex SEAL. So are his crew." "Wow," Mark murmured. This was serious stuff, he realized and he sat quietly considering it all for a while. If what Jasmine said was true, and even if he ended up returning to his normal life after a few days, he'd still be a target. Mark's life had well and truly changed. He still didn't know if it was for the better, but it was certainly going to be different.

Branded. Take that, Mark

“If that is the case, then as a friend to you, Marquess, I should also inform you of a rumor I heard concerning you.” Marquess turned and faced Alicia, face filled with worries of the unknown. “…Rumor? Of what…?” “I came to the knowledge that Marquis Pless has built up quite a number of debt due to his gambling… high enough to the point where the mansion can be taken at any time.” Marquess Pless’ mouth turned to a full circle. Momentarily stunTed, her face grew gravely pale. “Wh… what are you saying? Where did you hear such a strange rumor…?”
