The First Heir Novels & Stories

Afraid. Gabriel stood closest. I met his eyes. “I go first.” He didn’t speak right away. “You shouldn’t—” Max started. “I will,” I cut in. “This place answered me. Not you. Not him.” I reached up and touched Gabriel's cheek for a moment before turning back to the stairs. “I’m still the heir,” I said. “Cursed or not.” The words settled into the stone. Silence followed. Heavy. Respectful. Gabriel nodded once.

He shakes his head like he can't believe it. “Yes he did and at first I wanted to do exactly as he wanted but with recent happenings, I had another idea.” I tell him. “What recent happenings?” He asks me. “Well after my grandfather died, an heir needed to be named, the pack didn't even know that I was alive yet and I wasn't going to deceive myself that I could do it, I mean I wasn't my mother, I hadn't trained and worked all my life to become Alpha, I had no idea what it entailed, but still an heir had to be named. So I made Fealian the heir but Eric was going to rule in his place until he was ready.” I explain to him.

"He never remarried. Just raised me and built his empire and waited for me to come back." "He was waiting for you to finish your test." "How did you know about that?" "I make it my business to know things." Adrian leaned forward. "Your father made a deal with you three years ago. Hide your identity. Marry for love. Smart test." "I failed the test." "You passed it. You learned what you will not accept." He reached across the table, took my hand. "David Chen is an idiot who did not deserve you. But his failure taught you standards. That has value."

Because of what the connection whispered next. The Lost Heir has returned. The words echoed through every part of me. Lost Heir. Not Eighth Heir. Lost. Which meant... The Well Keeper had told me the Seven Heirs were one family. If there was a Lost Heir... Then someone hadn't been added to history. Someone had been erased from it. The hooded figure slowly lifted one hand. The sky above the throne darkened. The fracture across the heavens widened. And a voice, calm enough to chill the soul, carried across impossible distances.

She was desperate. This matter will be discussed privately. No one is to speculate in the family chat. A reply came almost instantly from one of the senior branch elders. It ceased to be private when a false heir was introduced into the bloodline. Another elder added: Mooncrest must verify the report in person. Then the patriarch of one of the branch lines, who rarely spoke at all, sent the message that changed everything. Bring the physician who handled the original examination to the Vale estate tonight. This will be settled before witnesses.

But at the same time, I become wary about the future. My father just said I was the heir to this family. But I do not know anything about the underground world. Also, I’ve almost died twice now. The necklace. I left it back in the other house. If I’m allowed to pack my clothes. I’ll keep that necklace and ask what is it really about. I don’t think it’s just a normal necklace that Hannah wore.

Nick asked as he held her by the waist. Celine put her arms around him and smiled up at him "It's a yes and will always be a yes Nick, I love you more than life it self and I will always want you and little Alice and more children to come"She said "I love you my crazy heiress"he said softly "And I too"Celine sighed as she gave him her heart and soul completely.

Zach wanted them to know that he wouldn’t be taking a back seat in the breakdown of their relationship and her being a highly profiled offspring of the one they’d been searching for years to capture and kill. “So, it is true then what we’ve been told about your destined mate?” This statement was directed by the same pack member who’d spoken with Alex. It was obvious by the wording he choose that he wasn’t questioning who she was, but indicated that he, as well as the rest of the pack, were aware of her heritage.

Osric smiles proudly, after kissing my stomach he stands in front of me. “Wouldn’t our first be heir to Blood Moon?” I question, looking back at Embry who finishes my braid that holds tight against my head. “Because you’re an Alpha your first born is heir to your pack, our second child will be heir to Blood Moon. You’re going to change this pack for the better, and once you’re done here, you’re going make bigger changes among all the packs,” Osric chuckles deeply while scooping me up into his arms.

She wasn’t about to let some small-town girl walk away with the life she was supposed to have, the life that belonged to her and her son. Her son. The thought of him made her grip the glass tighter, her knuckles whitening with the force. He was the key to everything. He was Alexander’s firstborn, the rightful heir to the empire Alexander had built. And yet, Alexander had dared to try and hide him, to keep them both in the shadows while he played house with that insignificant girl.
