Stormee Adalwulf
After an after-dinner quickie and quickly getting ready, Al, Enzo, Ralph, and I headed towards the club. It was packed, as usual. Al looked delicious in his navy jeans and a tight black button-down shirt with rolled sleeves. I wore another dress, this one more fit for the occasion: a mini sequined golden jumpsuit with a deep plunging v-neck.
People looked at him, especially women. They stared at his delicious wide frame and tall height. His short hair, in a messy look, made him look manly and enticing. Guys looked at me, but when Al wrapped his arms around my shoulders and tucked me into his side, he made them back off... while the women glared at me and kept staring at him.
Enzo and Ralph moved around like fish underwater. They made their way to a new section in the club, and beside a red rope was a bulky man who opened
AelfredThe following day, all the Alphas aligned with the Supreme King arrived. Romeo was still the king of their realm, along with being the ruler of every other realm. Romeo didn't intrude into the specific ruling of every realm, but he was the link between realms. He was the one that solidified a union among all the species.Today, they were hosting the Alpha Summit. Previously, people were running around preparing everything to greet their honorary guests. The servants, or, as Stormee calls them, Omegas, were busy cleaning, preparing food, and setting up different snack areas, resting areas and such.Stormee has corrected me several times about the term servants. She has made it clear that the basis of our people... the hardworking men and women who do all the labor, must be respected and treated with dignity. In the werewolf realm they call them Omegas because that is the last letter of the Greek alphabet, but in our realm, they are servants or slaves, and
Stormee AdalwulfThe first part of Alpha's meeting went smoothly. I knew my mother and father had more than enough experience to neutralize the cocky Alphas and create a suitable environment for negotiations to thrive.Aelfred was impressed with the various conversations the Alphas held and how the Betas handled the negotiations behind closed doors. For the system to work, the relationship of trust between Betas and Alphas must be blind.By lunch, we were all together in the dining hall. "I must say, Romeo... this is so enlightening..." Al said, and I nodded."We try to include all the core issues concerning packs: security, education, health services, financial support, sustainability, and trading. Then we put special affairs on the agenda, which means we open the floor for the specific needs a certain pack might have," Dad said, and Al nodded.Mom has set up a special buffet arrangement for lunch. As usual, it was vast and delicious. Werewolves t
Stella AdalwülfI have never felt more exposed. Seeing Tony attack Stormee triggered something within me. The nasty and bitter memories of him and Brad trying to hurt me were too vivid to overlook.Stormee´s question brought me back to a cruel reality. Even when I have always tried to bury those awful experiences in the back of my head, they remained there, pestering and rotting. I buried them instead of working on them... and right now, pretending I was okay would be futile because my daughter is an excellent character reader, and she has seen through me."He tried... twice..." I muttered, and I could see a storm brewing in her eyes. She was pissed and wanted to take action."Does Dad know?" She mumbled,"He saved me the first time, and then the waking up of my elemental powers saved me the second time," I said, and she laced her fingers along mine."Mom, let's go..." She said, and I followed her in auto motion. It's been a long time since
AelfredWe returned to the conference room where the sessions were taking place. It was more an auditorium than a conference room because hosting an assembly of over one hundred Alphas required such a venue.I was surprised when I first entered the area. It was within the premises of the Packhouse. It was conveniently built at walking distance from the main dining hall and the gardens, where the Lunas gathered around break tables to have small conversations about issues that needed addressing in their packs. Because some Alphas didn't have a Luna, the places required for them were smaller than the ones for the Alphas, and despite that, they also had a unique auditorium to hold their sessions.The areas were designed with the Alpha summit in mind, and all complexes were functional and well-distributed. It was a shame that Alpha Tony's actions tarnished such a good organization."Are you ready?" Romeo asked me, and I nodded. This was when I would get the re
AelfredI was amazed by how Romeo handled the entire situation with the Alpha, who disrespected my mate. I thought it would be a he-said, she-said type of situation. Still, it turned out he had the security tapes with audio proving he was at fault. Stormee tried to shove him away politely, but he insisted. He was harassing her and even trying to take her away to do whatever he had in mind.It was hard to see, but at the same time, I was proud that my mate handled herself graciously under such circumstances. I am sure she must have some experience shoving away assholes. Werewolf males are entitled and don't take a negative answer graciously... Elven males are more tamed. We treasure our women and respect them to the extent that we feel they are superior to us. They are not in the hierarchy but biologically. They are bright, gracious, soft, and beautiful. They are also strong, resilient, and powerful. Our women hold more power than our males. And biological
VamirOnce Aelfred and Stormee left, it was time to put our plan in motion. I knew that Audon would approach Sary soon because he was breathing down his neck.It was as simple as her telling me when he would show up and me showing up in time to lure him into trusting me. It would take a lot of restraint and control, but I needed to do this for my mate.A day after Aelfred and Storm left, Sary called me, and I immediately created a portal and made my way to our home. The bastard dared come into my home and ask anything from my mate. My blood boiled, but at the same time, this must be done. I have to do it."What is going on here?" I walked into the room with lazy steps and with a mean attitude.Sary smiled softly and said, "Honey, you are back. My father stopped by to visit." She said this sweetly, and Audon smirked in triumph.The cocky bastard believed Sary was at his mercy. Fucker. He might feel he is winning, but the joke would be on him
VamirSary and I were pleased with our performance and will try to wrap up this plan tomorrow. We understood that in this circumstance, less was more. He had to be utterly uninterested in his plans and schemes. We were not there to gather information but to have lunch with my mate's father.If we had crossed the invisible line between being interested and trying to gather information, we would have ruined our progress yesterday at dinner.Earlier in the morning, I called Al, but his phone sent me a voicemail. He has been busy with this plan's economic part and saving the realm from financial ruin. I hope he does well because we do need the reprieve of knowing our people will be provided for.When I arrived at the office, I saw Myriad and Blass. We had a productive meeting and then went to a soundproof conference room to discuss the undercover mission."I think you and Sary are doing a superb job," Blass said, and then Myriad sighed,"I don't
SarulaI saw my mate stiffen his back when I pulled out the report. My father's eyes brimmed with delight when he read everything I presented. It was a report from a smaller company, one of the little ones that is saving our asses currently. Of course, I tweaked the numbers to show him how much trouble we were in.I have dealt with him my entire life. He is a narcissistic man who will only relax and open himself up if he believes he is holding the high ground. So, I chose to present the number that would paint in his mind the idea that the realm would start suffering shortly. This would allow his plans to create chaos, allowing him to plan a coup to overthrow Aelfred efficiently.He is after the crown; he wants to be a king. All of this began when the former king left Aelfred under his guard. He tasted the power and what it was to have people do as they wished. He felt the backlash when Aelfred turned off age and started calling the shots alone. He has spent man
AelfredStormee´s presentation was a success overall. Once the session ended, Galabriel and Aerin monopolized my mate's attention. I could tell both women were mesmerized by Stormee.Elrond stood beside me, his head held high and his demeanor proud. "Your father would have been proud of you," he said, and I looked at him. He was one of my dad's best friends, and unlike Audon, he mentioned my father quite often. It was as if, by saying this, he strived to keep his memory alive."Do you think so?" I asked, and he nodded."I know so.""Aego was my childhood friend..." Elrond sighed, "He would have wanted you to be happy," he said, and I nodded."I am happy..." I sighed, staring at my mate, unable to form words to convey that happy is a word that falls short where she is concerned."He was, too, with your mother..." Elrond said, and I gave him a court nod."Audon is not happy. Beware of him," he said, and I took a deep breath
Stormee AdalwulfThe impressive double height and double doors before me made my insides churn. I took a deep breath, and Aelfred looked at me. "Are you ready?" I slowly nodded and gulped down the nerves and the feeling of vomiting. I am a freaking princess... now a queen... I can do this!I gave him a small smile, and he chuckled. "Relax. You already know the nastiest of the bunch. " He leaned forward and kissed my temple. I chuckled, and with that, he eased my nerves.He nodded to the guard, knocked on the door, and announced us as if we were entering a medieval court. People stood up to greet us. I wrapped my arm around Al's, and with steady footsteps, keeping my chin up, I descended the broad aisle.I could see people looking at me with curiosity; some scoffed, and others regarded me with respect but not fondness. I wouldn
AelfredAfter talking to Vamir, I knew what had to be done. Stormee is my mate, and nothing stops me from making her my queen. Our traditions and laws are very ambiguous about this particular matter. It is considered a blessing that the king mates with his fated mate; it is regarded as good luck and prosperity to do so.Never in a million years has there been a mating between an elven king and a werewolf princess, and that is where the void in our traditions and laws resides. It is inferred that the queen must be an elven woman, but it is not written. I could see the divided opinions, but I must yield their will to accept Stormee as their ruler for my realm, happiness, and mate.Storm is a bright young woman with modern ideas. As the law states, she is a true blessing in my life and the lives of our people.She has been busy with Eiry, supervising the orphanages, schools, and playgrounds. Sary has been dealing with a pharmaceutical company, and she comes
AudonI can do it again; nothing is stopping me now. My plan worked perfectly, and I have been carefully planning and executing it for a lifetime.It all began with broken dreams and unfulfilled expectations. Aego was my best friend; we were part of a high-ranking elite of students. We were decisive and capable, and when King Faelyn grew old and had no descendants, the council invited all elite students to participate in the trials.The Royal Trials were an ancient tradition that allowed the ruling king to find an heir without a direct descendant. King Faelyn was my uncle; I believed he would first look into his bloodline, but instead, he ordered the council to summon the people to participate in the Trials.It was the first time I felt the pain of betrayal deep within my soul. My own family, my uncle, would rather have a stranger ruling the realm instead of his blood. But I knew I was capable, and I was among the summoned elites who had the opportunity t
AelfredVamir asked me for a day off, which was an oddity. I wanted to know precisely what was happening but wouldn't dare intrude into his business. It sounded like a personal motive. Thus, I refrained from bothering him with my curiosity or questions during the entire day. But today was a different story; he was back, and I was ready to dig up what had happened. As his king, I worry about all my subjects, but as his friend, I am particularly worried about him. He and Sary are mates doing an undercover job that might take a toll on their personal lives... I need to ensure that this mission does not take away from them what they have built for their future."You are very pensive," My mate wrapped her arms around my waist."Just thinking about Vamir..." I blurted, and she pouted,"And I thought I occupied all your thoughts," She said, and I chuckled."Of course, you are my first and last thought of my day... you have been for an eternity..." I pecke
SarulaVamir is a fantastic man by the gods—one I don't deserve, but he makes me worthy of him. His sole presence, love, and the tenderness with which he treats me—all of him—makes me want to improve. His words and attitude made me feel he thinks highly of me and believes in me.I can't, and I won't let him down. Not now, not ever. The way he explained the damage Audon had caused, the way he tenderly explained how Audon had used forbidden magic on me. A magic that is not permitted to practice because it causes irreparable damage, a magic that always asks for a price... He used my mother's blood as a price... he used my mate's blood to break the bond and to destroy me."I won't force you to stay," he said, interrupting my thoughts and returning me to the present.My body trembled. The idea of losing him, of leaving him, terrified me. It was a paralyzing feeling that made it hard to breathe."Vamir..." I said, tears running down my
Vamir I could feel Sary´s turmoil and pain. It broke me to my core to hear all her fears and to find out what Audon had done to her. A female elf is as strong as her mate is, and I am second in strength to Alfred. Then, the rest of the realm falls behind us. I am capable enough to keep her safe from Audon and his schemes. I am her second chance, mate; that was a surprise, especially because when we became intimate, she was untouched; what the fuck happened there? I don't get it, but the way she shivered like a leaf told me it was part of a harrowing part of her past. I saw her withdraw from me, but as soon as she leaned on the bed and gave me her back, I pulled her into my chest. She must know that I am not going anywhere; she must feel how much I love her. She is my one and only mate, and I am he
Sarula"It's a good thing you are on this side of the team," he said, an innocent joke that made my blood freeze. My mind reeled, and I tried to compose myself quickly."Of course..." I smiled.This has been so hard. I have lived my entire life under my father's rule, seeking his approval and searching for his love. He always gave me crumbs, bits, and pieces that had me floating in the clouds. He knew how to play me. I was like a little dove: I will immediately go for the crumbs once you pull out the bread.I have tried to distance myself from him, but reality has hit me hard. I got the job because he wrote a reference letter which I owe to him. I have proven myself capable. Smart enough to handle the pressure of helping the queen and king rule the kingdom and maintain its balance. I have proven myself time and time again, but the feeling of betrayal runs deep within me.I feel like I am betraying my blood. When my father asked me to double-cross t
VamirI was sitting on a couch with Sary in my arms, cuddling. A fire warmed us, and soft music played around the area. We held a cup of cocoa, comfortably chatting and enjoying each other's company in silence, when we heard a loud bang on our door.I placed my mug on the wooden table before us and kissed Sary on her temple. "I am going to take that one..." I sighed, knowing who might come in here, thinking he could disturb us in the middle of the night."Are you sure?" Sary asked me, and I nodded."It will be fine..." I leaned down and pecked her lips.I walked to the door, and once I opened it, a fuming Audon barged into our place. "All right, you can come in..." I said sarcastically, and he looked at me."Don't you see how grave things are?" he barked, and I nodded."I know who would have im
