The True King
The keen gazes of the men in the Receiving Room were locked on them.
Knowing how vicious King Liam could become when he didn’t get what he wanted they were quite worried about seeing such an explosion from their newer king.
Gray said nothing. Merely looking at him.
“Leave us!” Malachi announced.
The men and women of the realm scampered from the room.
Once the door closed, Malachi blew a long breath of relief. He swayed slightly.
Gray instinctively caught the thinner man under the arms. “Sit, My Friend.”
He guided Malachi down to the steps.
“You haven’t found her?” Malachi let Gray help him as he asked in a softer tone.
“I did but she’s not ready.”
“To come here?”
“Yes.”
“You don’t have long, Jackson.”
“I see you’ve gotten much sicker.”
“I can’t keep pretending to hold this throne for you, Jackson.”
“I know. But I’m thankful you have.”
“I promised you. For a

“Is there anything I need to know about the Realm before I leave?” Gray asked reluctantly. Knowing he never liked the answer. “Any troubles we’re having?” “Yes.” Malachi drew a long breath, as if what he had to say would be difficult. “We have one very large problem.” “What?” “The clever Ice King to the East is assembling the Mountain Mob to make war on us.” “Archer?” Gray asked incredulously. “Apparently he intends to have the Eternus Realm as was promised.” “He will have it.” “But he doesn’t know that.” Malachi countered. “You insisted that no one must know of this deal, you and I have made.” “Because they would watch for weakness between you and I.” “I’m aware.” Malachi said evenly. “However, he believes that you are a traitor to the Eternus, by serving me.” “Oh, I’m sure that’s not all.” Gray said keenly. Malachi gave him a quizzical look. “I’d presume he got word long ago that I kill
Spark An Old Friendship
“It wasn’t you that was threatening her.” Lionel clarified in his whispering voice. Always a bit shy. “I knew that going back to Pyre would crush her.” “But to challenge me? I thought we were better friends than that.” “We are. I just can’t stand to see her suffering. I do love her, you know?” “I know.” “That’s your fault. You knew what would happen when you sent me to protect her.” “I know your loyal, who else could I send?” “Do you know how it kills me somedays?” “I know.” Gray confessed guiltily. “Can you know her, and not love her?” “I would be the wrong one to ask.” “I mean, before she’d fully become the Spark? Is it only her magic that makes her like that?” “Irresistible?” “Yes.” Lionel confirmed. “It wasn’t for me.” “You were kind to me, and I truly thought we were friends.” “We are.” “Then why put me in a position to torment me so?” “Because
Spark Don't Touch Me!
I cast a look at John’s thin back on the darker horse ahead. Wondering if he might have some answers. I decided on asking him when we stopped for dinner. He’d already mentioned we were going to have to. I’d insisted that I’d be okay. But my growling stomach had given me away. Damn it. John had kindly said he, himself was greatly hungry and would need something to warm his belly in order to risk the perils of travelling in the dark. Which I’d told him would be essential if we wanted to stay ahead of the Pyre Army Ahead of Gray. I knew what the Pyre Army would be doing. Travelling all night. I knew how relentless Gray could be. We were dismounting just outside of a small wolf village. It was so sparse that at first, I thought it might not be inhabited. But we climbed out of the ravine next to the creek and arrived near a square boulder. Able to overlook the whole village.
Spark A Blind Wolf
The little blue-eyed wolf girl shot me a crushed look. “Because I’m broken?” Blind? I was instantly contrite for yelling at her. Knowing she couldn’t possibly understand my real motivation. “You’re not broken.” I corrected her. “There’s nothing wrong with you. The fact that you have such a challenge and have been able to overcome it, makes you twice as strong as everyone else.” “I can’t see and barely hear.” She argued. “Do you know what a pack of wolves does to those weaker than the rest?” Slaughter them. Yet, they hadn’t killed her. But now, if I had to guess, I’d bet she lived in that house outcast from the others. “You seem to hear me.” I pointed out. She paused as if realizing that surprised her. “What are you?” “People say I’m a Spark.” I explained. “It must be incredible to be so special.” She murmured wishfully. *** Reimus and Verias had retraced
Spark The Gallion Alpha Knows
Lionel’s scent was stronger. Which had Gray a bit alarmed. Knowing that whatever the Gallions would do to them, they’d double upon a stray wolf intruding in their camp. Gray rushed past the square boulder and toward the ravine where he found, Lionel backing along the creek. Knowing that being any closer to the travelling pack would be a grave mistake. “Where is she?” Lionel chittered twice and bopped his head up and down. Giving a short growl. Gray nodded. Easily speaking the language of the beast that consumed half his genetics. He clambered back up the ravine and aimed for the stable. Only to come face to face with the malicious face of the Gallions Alpha. “What is the Commander of the Pyre Army doing intruding in Gallion territory? I thought the Eternus King and I, had a sound truce.” There was clear contempt in the Alpha’s expression. “You do.” Gray eased back. Knowing he needed more distance between himself and this man to
Spark Threats in the Water
“Orin, please! Gray is here!” “I did what you asked.” “Not spilling into me?” I asked askance in panic. “It was all you did.” “I could’ve given you young.” “And trapped me forever.” I braced the foot I had on the trough. Fighting desperately. But I weighed to little and Orin was too powerful. He stretched his other arm over the side of the trough to reach beneath my skirt. Pushing the fabric up to caress the inside of my leg. “No! Orin!” I yanked wildly. He was able to reach a pawing hand toward my crease, stretching a finger to slip into me. “Ahh.” He moaned in pleasure at finally getting to touch me so intimately. Sighing in lustful relief. He rose from the water. It poured off him in trickling streamers. Revealing his long hair and the shape of his sharp features and deeply inset eyes. His tight mouth and narrow lips. His slender, almost frail chest and narrow hips with the jutting member erect. The w
Spark Not to Others
He couldn’t save her. Not without hurting her himself. He had to rely on Lionel to do what he could not. It sickened him that Orin had just hurt her. Close enough he could’ve ripped the man apart. Literally torn his shoulders from his spine. But he could do nothing without unleashing either part of him that would hurt her. Eternus or wolf. “Dammit. Dammit!” He swore. Shaking his head at himself. His entire body quaking with the urge to change. “It’s a dangerous thing, isn’t it boy?” The Gallion Alpha drawled. “To be a wolf so close to your mate?” Gray blew a long breath and twisted his head from between his outstretched arms to peer at the man below one elbow. Still unable to move without risking changing. “You wanted to kill that mage.” “I wanted to rip out his spine.” Gray confirmed. “If you’d have gotten close to her in this state,” The Alpha gestured to his length, “you’d have mounted her.”
Spark First in a Long Time
“Then you’d be the first innately kind person I’ve known in a long time.” “Oh? Who was it before?” Jackson. Was the immediate answer. “Someone I thought I knew. Turns out, I was wrong.” “What happened?” “He killed my family.” “Why?” “I don’t know.” Maybe because he wanted me? But that made no sense because I was already promised to him. I didn’t really know why he’d done it. That wasn’t something I liked thinking about. Because realizing that he might’ve killed everyone I knew for no other reason then because he felt like it, was terrifying. I’d thought we were all like a large family. I was wrong. How could he do that to us? In all reality, it hadn’t benefitted him. It had taken him from being successor to the throne to Commander of an Army. But he’d always said he didn’t want to be King. Ma
