Stuck between the Royal Wolves Chapter Thirteen
NIKOLAIIt took longer than I would have liked for my breathing to go back to normal after the woman had made her request.I allowed myself to take a deep breath, stilling the shift of my wolf bubbling to the surface as I collected myself, careful to keep my face neutral when It was all I could do not to take her right then and there.“You know what? Never mind, I-I’m sorry to have bothered you, what was I thinking? I’m only a common girl, surely I can't ask that I share your bed,” Raya whispered as I watched her shoulders fall, a pang of regret twisting in my chest.I had taken too long to respond, and it was now obvious that the woman had mistaken my surprise for offense.Could i risk it really? Bringing my mate into my royal chambers without an official announcement was not a crime, but something told me the woman might think it deceitful, the council would not be pleased when they learnt who else she was mated to.I knew for a fact that Igor wasn’t.And there was the matter of wha

OLIVIA BURNSThe Stone City Alpha werewolf was not the man I remembered him to be. “Olivia you bloody fool!” I hissed, snapping my nightgown back into place and slumping back into the soft covers of the bed. It was one of the good things about visiting the Stone Castle. Alpha Nikolai was not stingy with his gifts, only his affection.The love I had managed to win years ago, before I went and ruined it by sleeping with that bloody chancellor who had thrown me out on my ass when he realized I was as much use to him as a talking donkey.“It is the life of a show woman Olivia, you have to accept the fact that men would never grow to love you, only see you as a passing attraction, something sweet they could have a bite of, before they went home for a proper meal.” My mother’s voice came again in my mind as I remembered the way her lips pursed sadly after she was done talking, turning back to the mirror to reapply her blood red lipstick. The same kind I had stowed away in my bag.I had bee

RAYA BANKSNikolai had still not come to see me by the time the sun blazed dully in the sky and I gave up waiting by the window side.What time was it? I must have been sitting by the window sill for hours, looking down at the line of tin-armored guards that marched up and down the stone pavement of the lot when the knock came on the door.“Miss Lady? Prince Nikolai urgently requests your presence at the royal dining hall. I’m here to help you dress,” Judith whispered, her eyes seeming to me to be wider than they usually were.I hopped down from the high gold stool, following obediently behind the muscled woman and stepping out my clothes, into the tub where she threaded her fingers through my hair.I could get used to this, the easy life at the stone city castle was nothing compared to life back in the village.I felt the void in my mind that I had fought hard to keep closed bursting open as I thought back to the evening I had been shuffling home from school.”Lady Artemis,” I groane

ALPHA TOPH“Your Majesty, please!” Odessa screamed before I let the back of my hand crack loudly against her cheek so that her head whipped violently to the side and she fell back, groaning.The coffee-toned woman with broad shoulders and even broader hips was one of my newest conquests, one of the Main City maidens Hagrid had managed to kidnap from my father’s palace.It was lucky that I had found the woman when I did, I was talking business with my father, something I tried not to make a habit, when Odessa sauntered in, tray in hand.I was instantly smitten when she leaned over, thrusting the round half-moons of her bottom out to me like she was challenging me, so that I struggled to control the tent in my trousers.She’d vanished from sight the next day, coming to live in the maiden houses of my castle so that i used her whenever I wanted. It was how I liked my women, how it had always been until Raya Banks got away.“Please,” She whispered again, the shudder of her frame shaking w

RAYA BANKSGoosebumps rose on my back and neck as the handmaiden marched me outside the maiden chambers , and I saw the ornately decorated hallway for what felt like the first time. There were rows of small fitted fluorescents on the high ceiling of the passage, the stone walls slanted in thin columns at the top so that the draft from outside blew through the space.“Well if it isn’t the runaway,” A snotty-faced woman chipped, the glazed coffee tone of her collarbones catching my eyes.If I didn't know any better I would have sworn the woman was one of those high-bred werewolves that spawned from a half-Lycan breed.“Oh Anya, don't scare off the kitty just yet, she hasn't gotten used to your crazy. Hi! I'm Lori, we're old maidens, consorts of the royal palace.” The shorter woman offered, waving at I and I felt my hand shoot up in return.”I’m Raya, Raya Banks,” I whispered, tucking my hair behind my ear shyly.Anya scoffed, flicking her long, auburn hair over her shoulder and saunteri

NIKOLAIThere was silence in the royal diner banquet for what felt like the longest time before the sound of a chair scraping across the floor broke the spell.My heart thudded oddly in my chest and I was aware of the way Olivia’s hands were splayed across my chest, the heady feeling of the wine I’d had earlier sloshing around in my head so that the world around me blurred slightly at the edges.I saw Igor rise from the table, looking dapper in his oil-black silk suit and crew-cut blonde hair as he jogged over to the empty chair and pulled it out for the woman, who whispered her thanks.Why hadn't I thought about that? Damned Igor with his annoyingly good charisma. I shifted uneasily, taking Olivia’s hands away from my chest as murmurs of dissent rose on the table.She hadn't stopped making her come -on’s at me, batting her ginger-colored eyelids and bumping my thigh with her toes under the table as I fought to hold back my grimace.”Who do we have the pleasure of meeting Nikolai?

RAYA BANKSMy heart thudded loudly as blood rushed to my ears, making me sag against the hard chest of the sandy-haired man who had come up to stand behind me.“Careful Raya,” He whispered, all trace of his usually playful personality gone as his sea-green eyes bored into mine, before I gasped again, jerking my hand away from his grasp and stumbling toward the stone towers of the maiden chambers.Nothing, I was nothing to him? What about last night? The forehead kisses he had given me when he thought I’d been sleeping, and the way he looked at me like he couldn't wait to have every inch of me writhing under his touch.“Shit!” I heard the Prince’s low cursing before the sound of feet rushing to meet me had me increasing my pace. I must not have been walking fast enough, because the feel of a hand pressing into my shoulder made me turn to face him, taking in his concerned face and the look of shame in his eyes before I let my tongue loose.“Don’t fucking touch me!...Your Highness, I thi

RAYA BANKSThe low humming of the air conditioning wormed past the static that had filled my ears before I became aware of the hands on me.“W-what did you just say?” I managed to choke past the lump that had grown in my throat, struggling to hold down the rush of nausea that had risen like bile in my throat as the world tilted around me again.“Hold on to her!” Igor’s voice sounded from somewhere above me and I managed to crack an eye open to see Anya’s pale face before the prince’s distinct baritone made a rush of warmth roll up my neck.“What the hell is going on here?” Nikolai’s angry bark sent shivers of trepidation through my back and I inhaled a frantic breath as his large hands spanned my waist, before crawling up my back and pushing the weight of my body up to cradle his chest.I tried to imagine how we would look to the maidens who were letting out small gasps as my body swayed from his movements, to see us through their beady eyes.The dark prince with his midnight-black ha
