To my Lovely readers, I hope you've been enjoying Fated to the Queen. I love bringing these characters to life for you, and I know you will enjoy the twists and turns I have planned. Writing has been an excellent outlet, and I'm glad to get some exposure here. You are all wonderful to give my book your attention, and I appreciate your support. I hope you noticed the author's note if you read the last two episodes, 16.1 & 16.2. If not, here's a more in-depth note. On Friday, 6/23/23, I encountered a problem. Sadly my Word doc was corrupted somehow, and I only have my G****e rough draft outlines for the following eight chapters of my book. I have been working day and night to fix this issue for days but making little progress. I could only put out one chapter so far, and you just read it. I am heartbroken as an author, taking it one step at a time as it's all I can do. It is hard to stay positive when over ten-thousand words are erased in one file. I hope you are patient with me

Kimarhi - Afternoon Summit Day Two The morning was wonderfully filled with hugs from my mates. I did love our cuddle pile as we slept. I felt warm and loved. My heart has never been so whole, but I still sense something is missing. I stand in the shower now, letting hot water pour over me. At first, my mind and body were focused solely on Lorcan, but now Xim has joined us. I’m worried; I cannot give them the attention they deserve. But they are mine. As long as we can be together, I know we will all be happy. The thought of my mates makes my body shiver with pleasure, and I take my hand to my core and ease my needs. I'm surprised my mates didn't come stomping through the door to help. During breakfast, I got to meet Lady Reika, my new handmaiden. She intrigues me, being quite lovely and attentive. The men did enjoy watching us work together, and it’s been a while since being with a woman. Lorcan has no issue sharing, and Xim is open to our bond. Perhaps I can convince Rieka to joi

It is not very becoming of a Queen. I shake out my nerves taking Lorcan and Xim’s hands in mine. I calm down enough to continue. “I feel the same sensations as I do with our King. Have you ever heard of such a union.” my voice whispers like someone’s listening in. Sir Tavers is quiet, not upset, but definitely thinking. He gets up and walks around to me, slowly offering me a hug. Lorcan and Xim release me to him with care. “Congratulations again, my Queen,” Sir Tavers says joyfully. “I know this is strange, having two fated, but it feels so right somehow,” I say when he pulls away. “I’m sure it does. I will research this for you at once.” His tone is soft but shaking. “I know you will, and thank you.” After a moment in his arms, I feel much better. Everything seems more straightforward and meant to be. He isn’t judging or questioning this. “Sir Tavers, I officially present my fated mate, Xim of the Nomads.” “Nice to meet you, and welcome home.” “I’m happy to be here,” Xim’s c

“My Imagyn!” I feel Kimarhi’s soft hand on my face as I fade and pass out from the shock. A bright white light begins to spin with a whirl of colors; purple, gold, blue, and fire red. The shape of a white flower appears from its center, blooming right before my eyes. I feel complete happiness as arms reach in and around to embrace me. I'm finally home and loved. After some time, I come out of my haze. I can feel the soft plushness of a bed below me and wonder if all that was a dream. I also sense the warmth of a body, as if I am lying on someone’s chest. I smell him so clearly now. He smells like home, musky, and woodland perfect, and I know it’s Xim. I can tell he’s talking, but I’m still groggy and can barely register what he’s saying. “She is still asleep. What happened? Lorcan nor I had this reaction!” Xim sounds frantic. “Imagyn must be tired from her travels,” Queen Kimarhi’s whispered voice made me listen more closely. “Yes, let’s make her comfortable. For now, she needs r

Kimarhi "I'll get her a bath started. Helena, our clan doctor, will be here soon," I say calmly, stroking Imagyn's hair. She's asleep again after having what looks like another seizure. I must be extremely calm for all three of them as I feel like crying. I don't think this is how meeting your mate is supposed to go. "What's wrong with My I'm a?" Xim's pleas are heartbreaking, and I can't answer him. He's holding her so close and tenderly. I want to scoop her up, but I stay back to let him comfort her. "I'm not sure, but we will do all we can to help her, My Xim." Lorcan is trying desperately to calm Xim. He has a hand massaging Xim's neck and one cupping Imagyn's face. I must leave the room before I start crying. I run a warm bath for Imagyn, and I can't help but think we hurt her somehow. Finding Lorcan was less intense, but it still felt great. Meeting Xim, he was almost catatonic because of an internal battle about Imagyn. But he warmed up to Lorcan and me quickly. Imagyn's
