My father is King Ezekiel Lennox, the only ruler of the human race, and my mother was Joyce, daughter of Alpha Roman of the now-extinct Midnight Clan; I am half-human and half-wolf, but the wolf gene never developed in me. Therefore, I was only human; my older brother Ulysses was the one who had the wolf gene set; he would be the next King; he was the pride of my father.
Humans and werewolves have lived in harmony for many years, both in the human kingdom and in the Clans; this is thanks to the alliance between my father and the Alpha King Omar Black. Still, the years do not pass in vain, and my father is no longer that proud and fearsome man he was before.
Everything changed when my older brother Ulises and my mother were killed, some werewolves that we call exiles (without pack or rogues) got into the castle at night, my mother died when facing them, she was a great warrior, she taught me to fight and to use the bow.
And my brother died trying to defend me; I was 12 years old when that tragedy happened; he was the next in line to my father's throne, with only 18 years, he lost his life that day.
But the men of the royal houses, Dukes, Counts, Princes, and even the Alphas realized that now my future husband would have the throne secured and become the next absolute King.
However, they did not count on the fact that I am not a damsel in distress waiting for her Prince Charming, I do not intend to marry just anyone, and I am not even interested in the idea; I prefer to be the queen and rule alone, I do not need a man who is ordering me in my ear.
After that night, I swore that I would never need anyone to defend me; I would grow up to be a strong and independent woman. For 8 long years, I dedicated myself to that promise I made to myself when I lost my brother.
There was only one problem, the Alpha King Omar Black, my father and he were old friends, they knew each other very well, the Alpha fell ill, and a few days later he died leaving his son Magnus Black as Alpha King at only 18 years old, he is 6 years older than me, I don't remember him very well, he and my brother were great friends, but when Magnus died, he moved away from us, and I never saw him again.
He became a respected being but reckless; he was practically a barbarian; they say he has a harem of women in his clan, waiting to satisfy him.
So many years have passed, I no longer remember his face and 8 years can change anyone, but one of my friends who was present before him, says he is extremely attractive, his black hair and gray eyes, with a penetrating gaze, she told me that when he approached her, his aura was shocking.
I think they exaggerate, but that doesn't matter to me because he is a brute, and as such, I don't care in the least.
I am a brave and strong warrior; everyone knows it in my kingdom, everyone knows it, I know how to fight with the sword, and no one can beat me with the bow. My beauty is unmatched, and that is why all the nobles and alphas throw themselves on me. Still, I am not an easy woman, and no man can tame me.
"Your highness, we are ready, the guests are arriving, and your father requires your presence'." "Enrique, remind me again why I am doing this," I said as I looked in the mirror and looked at my outfit for tonight.Enrique is my cousin; his parents died the day of the attack on the castle. Since he was the only son of my father's brother, he stayed with us, to he is like a brother, we grew up together. He is one of the most outstanding warriors of our knights, and he is practically my personal guard."Alright, where do I start, if you want your father to take you seriously, to let you be the future queen of Galandria and not have to marry a stupid knight or alpha, who only thinks of having you as a damsel to show off, fuck you and as a baby machine,
When I was in my room, I went into my closet, took out some black leather pants and a red blouse that covered my chest and exposed my back; I decided to tie my hair with a ribbon and put on my high black boots.I left my bedroom and went down the service stairs that led to the kitchen; everyone was very busy, so I could leave without anyone noticing; I went to the car area and saw Aime's black Audi, I entered carefully, and she was already waiting for me."! Wow, you look spectacular; you want to kill someone with a heart attack because you will have many eyes on you tonight; of that, you can be sure, and I thought you didn't want the attention.""I don't care, I just want to dance and have fun; these 3-day events make me very nervous and anxi
"Gina, where are you from? Where can I find you beautiful," he said as he kept kissing me. My defenses were down; I couldn't believe I was losing myself in the caresses of this Greek god, which I would never have done in my five senses. Still, the strange thing was that I was in my five senses; I was allowing this to happen, and worse, I was enjoying it too much.I opened my mouth, but no words came out, only noises and moans, " I am Georg........." I said, ready to reveal my true identity. Still, the door opened, and the light from the hallway blinded us both, bringing me to the reality of what was about to happen.I looked at the person in front of us, and it was Aime; her face was one of concern, and she was pretty pale; I stared at her, knowing s
The combat tournament was about to begin, as I walked next to Aime, I could enjoy the decorations, you could see the flags with the shields of the royal houses and the wolf clans, people running excitedly talking about their champions, the shouts of enthusiasm when they were introducing each of the competitors.Even though I hate this kind of events, the truth is that seeing my people excited and enjoying the festivities was something I wanted, I kept walking, and people bowed and greeted me with affection.I have always tried to be kind and respectful with them, that has earned me to be very popular with them, my family for decades has seen for the welfare of our people, even before ours.Finally I arrived to the area where the fights would take
I woke up in the room assigned to me; I was visiting the Kingdom of Galandria; the King was an old friend of my father, and after he visited my Clan, I accepted his proposal and invitation.I am choosing my outfit for today; it has been so long since I have been present at the tournaments here. It has been 8 years since the last time I witnessed one of them, and I remember it as if it was yesterday.Galandria had one of the best champions, the fastest and strongest, the future King before the tragedy where he lost his life. My great friend Ulises, I remember the anecdotes of our fights and conquests; no woman could resist us when we were teenagers.I remember his sister Georgina, she was a little girl the last time life was 12 years old; I wonder
When I saw Enrique's hurt, fear gripped me, fear of losing him like I lost my brother. Still, I was determined not to let Kenzo kill him, he stopped at nothing, and I know how badly he wanted his champion status back.I arrived at the dais where my father was and listened to ask Aime about me."Where is my daughter?" he asked angrily."Here I am, dad; I just went to see Enrique," I told him and raised my hand for the mediator to approach the dais."The Duke of Lennox will withdraw from the fight due to the seriousness of his injuries, make the announcement and let's end this once and for all," I said and returned to my seat. Still, I couldn't help but see how Kenzo looked at me smiling; t
I woke up sore and saw in front of me that man who tried to take my place in the fight, I tried to get up and saw how the doctor was leaving, and my armor was on a chair."What happened here?" I asked as I stood up, confused."Nothing, that you are now the champion of the combat tournament, congratulations," said that man, and fury came over me."I told you not to take my place; that trophy was not won by me; I will not accept it right now. I will go to the king and confess everything," I said. I was determined to leave the tent, but that man grabbed my arm tightly."I understand that you are furious, but I am sure that you did not want Kenzo to win, and neither did I, besides for the king and his daug
FLASHBACK 5 YEARS AGOWhen my brother Ulises and my mother died in that tragedy, my father changed with me; he became more protective and even adopted my cousin Enrique since he had been orphaned, and the idea of him living with us did not displease me.I always saw him as another brother, years passed, and I continued training with the bow; as my mother taught me, Enrique insisted that I should also train with our warriors and learn to defend myself.Dad refused because he told him that I didn't have to do it; he would always protect me. I trusted that this was true and that it could happen to me; surrounded by people who love me, I was in no danger.A year ago, my father invited the Alpha of West Rock
