She is the Royal queen. He is the chieftain of barbarians. Guess who rejected who. He left her on her knees, heartbroken. She begged, she cried, she howled for him to come back but she also rose. Despite a broken heart, she rose to become the fearless queen she was. 7 years have passed and the queen of Avalon is admired widely for her beauty, strength, and intelligence. What nobody knew is that their queen was harboring a secret void- a heart untouched by love. She makes the ruling look easy with her practiced elegant smile. But it is not, especially when there is an army of vampires rampaging through the nations, killing werewolves for power. Now they had set their eyes on Avalon. As the horde of vampires threatened her land, she faces a daunting choice- form an alliance with the most feared clan to defeat bloodsuckers- the unconquerable Barbarians, or watch her realm crumble. The barbarian chieftain- a force of raw power and dominance- agrees to help but on one condition. He wants an heir from his mate in return.
View MoreShe took her position in the bed and he stood between her legs. This time it felt different. They both were restless; one to get it over with and another to do it without holding back. She had to be the most innocent picture of seduction. His fingers itched to savor the smoothness of her skin. He yearned to overindulge in her charm, longed to ride the seductive curve of her mouth. He pressed his cock at her entrance and pierced into her at a slow pace. She clenched the sheet. No matter how gentle he gets, his cock was too large to let her breath in peace. Everytime, it felt like she was being impaled with a rod. Soon, they started moving to the rhythm of his thrusts. The room echoed with wet noise as he sped up his pace. He leaned over her and stared at her face. Her lips were slightly parted as she took shallow breaths. Her eyes were shut, her long dark lashes kissing her skin. A stray lock lay across her face. His fingers itched to touch it. "Let me touch you," his voice hoarse
A round table was set on which Rosalie, Ryker, and Helena sat. The maid set the plates. Rosalie watched as Ryker pulled his mother's plate near and sliced her meat into small pieces. Lost memories resurfaced. He used to do that for her too as he didn't want her fragile fingers to exert force. "How are you doing here, Rosalie?" Helena asked, gripping her attention."I am doing good..." she stated with a hesitant smile. She further added, "People here have started to accept me, I guess. I teach children in the morning and then attend meetings. In the evening I practice sword with Antonious."Ryker picked a piece of meat and fed it to his mother and after that, he put one in his mouth. Rosalie wasn't surprised. Helena was too weak to eat on her own. "Antonious?" Helena asked. "Yes, he is my guard. A very nice person," a scoff came from somewhere. Rosalie ignored it and went on admiring Antonious much to someone's annoyance. "He is a bloody traitor," Ryker piped in, glaring at Rosa
The next day she did her routine of teaching children. The strength of children had doubled over days. The parents were starting to trust her. She taught the kids and attended the meeting. Ryker looked angrier than usual. She didn't feel his gaze on her, not for once. He had disregarded her presence completely.That night after waiting for a while for him she decided to retire to bed. She was sleepy but couldn't sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, Helena's face would flash through and she would end up crying in grief. She latched the door and was about to lay in her bed when a knock came. Her heart thudded loudly thinking about the person behind the door. He had come. She steeled her spine and walked over to the door. After unlocking it, she opened the door. Confusion lit her face when she saw the maid standing before her. " Hadar wants to see you in his house," the woman relayed the message. She gave her a nod and turned towards the house. Ryker was pacing the hall when she en
Her mind went blank as she gaped at the woman who once epitomized life in utter shock. What had happened to her She wouldn't have recognized her if not for the tattoo on her saggy cheekbone. She looked lifeless. Her chest tightened in grief. Her heart refused to believe it. This can't be her. Tears flooded her eyes and she clamped a hand over her mouth as a sob threatened to break free. "Who..who is it?" the old woman croaked out. She shook her head but couldn't speak. "Ge..get me the water," Helena grunted weakly. Rosalie whipped her blurry gaze around in search of water. It was kept on a table beside her bed. she hurried over to the table and poured a glass of water. She bit her teeth to keep herself from crying as she helped the woman and made her drink the water. A sob escaped her anyway. "Who..who are you?" Helena queried. Rosalie couldn't speak and just continued to stare at the woman with grief-stricken eyes. Seeing her like this was tearing her heart out. "Rosalie?" the wo
" Ain't you getting too friendly with him?" he hissed, his nostrils flaring. "You are trying me, ain't you? You are doing this to get a reaction out of me. But listen one thing, princess, I am not that easy to provoke. And when I am provoked, I am the worst," he warned her dangerously through his clenched teeth. His unwavering cold glare pinning her to the spot. Rage surged through her being at his claim. She returned his glare with her own. The constant noise of door rapping couldn't break the tension swirling in the room. Anger rolled off them, thickening the air. She held his glare as she opened her mouth to speak. " I am free to be with whoever I want just like you are," her voice had hardened. She continued... "You have absolutely no say in my life. You chose Riva and so I also have a right to choose whoever I want. You will have to play fair, Ryker," she seethed, maintaining their eye contact. Yes, she was spiteful. If he can choose anyone then she is also free to choose
"He can cook his own fucking food," Ryker spat, sounding irritated. "He is still looking for a place to stay and as he is always guarding me, he gets no time for himself. I was going to cook lunch for us but then you invited me over," her tone was even as she explained. He didn't like the fact she was going to cook for him. And why the fuck she was calling him and her as "us?" They were two separate individuals who couldn't be brought together not even in a fucking word. If anything, it only irritated him more. The woman looked at them confused, not understanding what to do. "Please, call him in," Rosalie motioned for the woman with a kind smile. The woman nodded before walking away. The scowl plastered over Ryker's face was a dead giveaway that he didn't approve of Rosalie's decision. But he kept quiet because he knew if he denied then this annoyingly stubborn woman would refuse to have lunch with him and he wanted to keep her in front of his eyes as long as he could. Time and t
Ryker had agreed to her demand but he still had his doubts about Antonious. The man had betrayed the whole clan by sharing their secrets with another clan. The man didn't even care to defend himself when his dirty deeds came to light. Ryker should have killed him but instead only banished the man from the clan. Now he was back. With what intention?He had no idea how she managed to force "yes" out of him but the deed was done. He couldn't back out on his words now. But he can't also let her be alone with him. The thought kept him awake the whole night. And also a regret. Why did he let his emotions take over him? He had vowed to never show her emotions. The next morning he sent for Rosalie. He was going to keep her with him as long as he could. That way, he would also be able to keep an eye on Antonious and protect his future heir. Yes, his future heir. That's the only reason he wants her with him and away from Antonious. It had nothing to do with his possessive nature, he assu
"You want that thug as your personal guard?" his tone was cold and disapproving. The man looked on the verge of bursting into flames. "I am surrounded by thugs," she pointed out, fixing him with a sharp glare. His eyes narrowed into a slit, his lips tightened into a thin line. She perhaps enjoys riling him up. "You know what I mean. He is not to be trusted. I will never allow this," he refused outrightly. Antonious wasn't to be trusted. "First, I am not asking for your permission. I am telling you," she started, her shoulders squared and chin high."Either Antonious will be my guard or I'll have no guard. Secondly, who is here to be trusted?" she folded her hand and asked, insinuation evident in her tone. "I'll have a word with Clovis. He will guard you. I trust him," Ryker responded, dismissing her demand. Clovis was his most trustworthy man. He initially thought of putting Adgar on the job but he couldn't. It had a lot to do with Adgar's earlier attraction to Rosalie. Even thou
"He saved you?" Ryker turned towards her. "Yes. He saved me from the rogues. Where is he?" "Chained up in the dungeons," Ryker answered flatly. Her eyes turned wide in shock before narrowing in anger. "Why have you chained him up? He has saved me," she snapped. "Now I know," he retorted. He thought Antoious was lying.Rosa heaved a sigh. "Take me where he is. I want to see him," she stated and began getting down from the bed. As soon as she moved, the throb in her head grew into a hard hammering. Ryker was quick to block her way with his giant frame. His eyebrows furrowed together. "You will not see him. He is dangerous," he refused her in a stern tone. "Whether he is dangerous or not, it is for me to decide. Now move," she told him just as sternly. There was no way she was going to let her savior endure another minute of torture as she stood alive. "Why do you never listen?" he clenched his fists tight, his frustration shining through his hardened eyes. Rosalie let o
