Sage Duke Novels & Stories

Duke's voice brought me back from my wandering thoughts. " Huh.... what did you say?" I asked " I asked what your name is?" He repeated " ....oh Aiden, .. Aiden Hart " I replied firmly I watched as he stretched out his hand towards me. This action made me widen my eyes in surprise. What on earth is Nora teaching this kid? " I feel like we're going to be good friends........but only if you are good to my mother. My name is Duke Simmons, can I call you uncle Aiden?" He asked

I know exactly why he makes this call. “Hello, and no.” My attitude is very clear. “Nyx, are you sure you don’t want to join us at the party? There’re a lot more young girls here than last year.” Duke’s excited sound can be heard through the phone. Duke is only twenty, an age excited about everything, especially the mate thing. He stops at nothing helping me find my mate. “You said young girls.” I put stress on “young”. “So what? You’re also young.” Duke insists.

Rion, lounging comfortably on the sofa, looked even more amused. “And what exactly do I think?” Roxanne let out an annoyed sigh before replying flatly, “You think I like Duke Lunnart.” Rion chuckled again. “Sister,” he said casually, “duke is only a temporary title for Killian Lunnart. Once the Grand Duke dies, he’ll inherit Grand Duchy Lereg… and you’ll become the Grand Duchess.” Roxanne stared at him for a few moments before looking away again. “No matter what,” she said quietly, “all of that will eventually be in your hands. Grand Duke Lereg’s support will belong to you.”

“We were here first. According to the rule, you both are not supposed to be here.” Rule? What rule? Duke takes one step forward, getting in the Sullivans’ faces; “Both of you are playing with fire and you know it. Leave. Now.” “And what if we say no?” Sage tone sparks with challenge. “I see you’ve become quite bold.” Bhyron snarls. “Need I remind you of what happened the last time?” Sage smirks, but to my relief, he steps back. When he looks at me, his eyes brim with pure evil. The kind that makes my stomach tighten with nervousness.

It was the Christ the King celebration, and he was to chair the fair trade and the commissioning of the grotto that followed the procession, until Fabian appeared with news he had assumed he had dealt with temporarily. “What still holds her death? Why does she still roam the manor?” He stopped in front of Fabian to ask, even when he had been told the reason a thousand times. Fabian just stood in the darkness of the room, staring back at Edric and wishing he could control himself. “I am so close to being the next duke, so close to sitting on that seat of power and dining with the king,” he said aloud as he resumed pacing the room again, not caring if anyone overheard him.

Ashley’s POV I woke up and didn’t see Duke on the bed, he wasn’t in the bathroom, or even in the house. That was when I remembered him telling me to turn on the TV in the morning. “My name is Daniela Austin, and today I’ve got some big and surprising news for you all. As of yesterday, we knew Santiago Alberto is the CEO of the Apex Silver Company, well, today, the real CEO of that company just revealed himself. His name is Duke Vandercage.”

He'd never actually voiced his new title to anyone yet, it just seemed to be an odd thing to say out loud, and it brought home the godawful fact that his father had indeed died and that his life was now full of enormous responsibilities. "Yes, I am the 11th Duke of Shettleham, and I need to get home to comfort my mother and see to my guests, who I might add, includes your boss, the Chief Constable. Would you like to phone him?" Jasper held his phone out with the chief constable's private number showing on the screen. "No Sir, I don't think that will be necessary. Do you have a lock for the bike?" Jasper nodded and pulled the pillion seat up to retrieve the heavy bike lock and secured it to t

I shook my head, determined to end their delusions. “W-What is she saying? Were you so mad at my son that you came up with those words? Don’t worry, I assure you he can man up. Duke has no harm, he’s just a flawed guy. I promise.” Sara gave me an awkward smile. I was about to counter her when Duke confidently grabbed my hand, urging me to sit down.

“Duke, I’m not here to play games. Your company is on the edge. A single misstep could cost you everything—your shareholders, your reputation… even your position as CEO.” Duke’s lips pressed into a thin line. “I built that empire. I don’t need charity from the Harpers.” Alexandra’s smile widened, just enough to be dangerous. “Charity?” she echoed, voice silk over steel. “I think you’ll find that pride has a very short shelf life when your empire is crumbling.”

"Sir?" "Clear my schedule. I want the entire week of Country L’s Brilliant City University graduation free." There was a pause. "Yes, sir. That’s about five weeks from now. Shall I assume we’re flying there?" Duke tapped the surface of his desk thoughtfully. "Yes. And prepare an offer for her, employment at the Fleming House of Hope. The highest package we’ve ever extended. Housing. Research grants. The works." "Of course. Shall I include a diplomatic envoy?"
