In the beast society, it wasn't new for the alpha to have several wives other than their mate. Unlike the blood tribe women who could only bear the child of their mate, the beast clan members can get pregnant after having sexual intercourse with their opposite sex. This became a tradition in the Wyslien Kingdom, thus anyone with a pretty face could either become the alpha's woman or a sheer servant.
Mathew Solic cared a lot for his younger sister, Azrene. He would always be willing to give whatever she desired as long as he could make her happy. Azrene's mother was one of his father's lovers who was initially brought as a slave, a mere human with a lovely face whom his father loved the most. When their parents died, he inherited his will and became the alpha among the alphas of the beasts. Other than that, they left him with nothing but his younger sister. The prettiest lady in the entire kingdom, someone that every noble beast meant sought after despite being
The sweet-savory taste of blood in Latina's taste buds made her roll her eyes. She sipped on it with excessive thirst. Her eyes glowed in the dark, cold room as she sank her fangs deeper in her victim's skin, allowing the liquid to flow out and fill her mouth. She felt warm by drinking his blood. It pumped her nerves up. Latina seemed energized. She inhaled the air with the metallic scent of blood to fill her nostrils. It was like having something she never had before and it was giving her exemplary sensation. "Ah!" she exclaimed as she threw her head back, tossing her long black hair. With her burning eyes, she stared at the man in front of her. Licking the edges of her lips, Latina caught the guy's terrified face. "You're a vampire!" Mathew roared, pressing his palm on his neck where Latina dug holes with her fangs. "Damn it!" Latina went back to her senses when she felt a hand covering her mouth. She looked up a
The moon, on its highest peak, shone its mild light. Underneath the thin clouds, a midnight battle took place in the kingdom's heart in the south. Beast soldiers and guards surrounded the intruder, keeping their numbers up as the young knight got them one by one. Wielding his flame sword against anyone who got near him. "How naïve," a redhead alpha said, leaning on the pillar while striking a pose. "A kid like you has no place on the battlefield. Go home while I'm still being nice to you," he suggested. Seth smirked and slit the beast soldier's throat in a second. "Naive you say, why don't you save that for your useless men?" he mumbled, clearing his path towards the alpha by taking down his guards in one blow. "Leo," Mathew called the werelion when he exited the palace. "Be wary of that kid, he's got some skills." Leo curled his brows on the werewolf's reminder. "You're thinking too highly o
In the Eastern region of the empire, rumors have it that a village of witches existed. But without any specific evidence, the said tittle-tattle remained as hearsay. "Ow!" A loud groan echoed in the midst of the night. Even the crickets paused for a bit and peeped when the lady's head came out from the crack on the ground. "Ugh," Latina groaned when her skull hit a hard object. She lifted her head and could barely see the moon in the sky from a small hole up above. Tall trees surrounding the area and the hard thing that hit her was a huge tree root. "Impossible," she muttered. They were going down all the way, yet they emerged from the ground. "Argh," she flinched when Azrene bumped into her. "That was fun," the girl exclaimed. She pushed Latina when she adjusted her position. "It's weird, why did you stop? Is there no exit?" Latina shook he
The forest went foggy as the temperature dropped, slightly frosting the tree leaves and causing unexpected snow in the middle of summer. Latina noticed the sudden changes, cautiously, she put her guard up. Running away came into her mind but considering the fact that she was not familiar with the topography, she hesitated. Besides, she was not alone. If she does something that may place both Azrene and herself into danger, their effort on running away from the kingdom would be wasted. The boys led the way, and they followed while the old woman walked silently behind them. The ladies could feel the intent stare from the back, they knew that they were being watched. "Aren't we supposed to run away?" Azrene whispered, pulling the sleeve of her robe. "The old woman said they're having a feast. Don't you think they will eat us? Even the boys were hunting for meat in the middle of the night," the girl continued. Her voice, after trying so hard
Latina was speechless, not sure of what to say, she drifted her eyes elsewhere. “Wait, you just said that this Marco kid died eight years ago and never left your village even once. Are you sure that Latina came and drank his blood while he was still kicking?” Azrene asked, confused. “Tsk, honestly we need to leave as soon as possible.” “You’re avoiding the question now!” Latina unconsciously covered her hand on Azrene’s mouth. Wrapping her arm around Azrene’s waist, she lifted her without getting rid of her hand on the girl’s lips. She gave a signal to the boy to lead the way. “Stop struggling,” Latina whispered to Azrene’s ears. The latter nodded her head. “Let me carry you until we reach the village. It’s safer to leave fewer traces.” “Quick,” the boy flicked his head to the side. There was a giant tree with beautiful orange leaves sparkling in the moonlight. It stood
The buzzing of people in the capital was endless. Merchants were making do of the remaining time before midnight to sell their goods. Shoppers were everywhere, visiting each store, purchasing what they needed, not minding the time. The steeds tied on the trees on the sideways were making sounds, unsettled by the loud commotions around. Wagon wheels hitting on the bumpy road was added in the not-so-pleasant harmony while the bugs and other insects composing their piece made the sounds more incomprehensible. “So many patients,” Claudia complained. Sitting on a comfortable seat in Rupert’s office with her legs crossed, her thighs were visible on both sides with the long skirt she wore, thanks to its three-feet-long slits. She plopped her left elbow on the table and lounged her cheek on her palm, playing a pen on her other hand, Claudia sighed. “I should have come with the lord earlier. Invading the Wyslien Kingdom seems more interesting than staying in this borin
“Want some more?”Rupert’s question echoed in Claudia’s ears. She wouldn’t deny the fact that she was enticed. The man had a charming face and in good shape. Despite being an infamous banterer, Rupert was one of the few bachelors in the capital that every lady wished to notice them. His booming business gave him additional points in ladies’ standards. But Claudia’s standard was way too high, for a pure-blood like her, having a true-blood mate was enough to boost her pride and walk around with her head up.“Nah, I rather buss a bottle. We agreed to drink, not to make out,” Claudia responded. She rested her back on the table when Rupert’s grip loosened. Grabbing a bottle beside her, Claudia chugged it down while laying down. The wine dribbled on her neck down her chest but she felt hot. As for the reason why; she preferred to blame it on alcohol and not because of someone else who kept staring at her while she d
The growls and grunts were gone. The presumed to be storming massacre to the vampire intruder turned against the beast tribe. Their battle cry ended when droplets of death fell from the sky, causing numerous casualties and a huge amount of corpses scattered all over the place.“We let our guards down,” Leo growled, laying on his chest. If not for his strength, he might have died along with others.Mathew didn’t respond and strutted up instead. There was an inexplicable feeling inside him that he couldn’t shrug off, drawing all his focus.“Sire! I have an urgent report!” A servant from inside the palace came scrambling, he bent his body to pay his respect when he saw the alphas. That was when he realized that there was a bigger problem while he was guarding inside.“Fool! Look around you,” Leo roared at the servant. “Is there anything else that&r
