Klaus:
“Easy” I told Aiden who was flapping his wings as he flew, he was barely a few feet off the ground, but he was managing his flaps more flexibly now that he was six months old, Kiara was sitting on top of a rock cross legged as she watched the little dragon fly.
“That’s it little one, try going to Kiara” I encouraged Aiden who rose a little higher, Kiara smiled and stood up, taking a step back, watching as the little creature approached her slowly, his flaps quick as he tried raising himself higher to reach her, Kiara kneeled down and extended her hand as he reached her, nuzzling his head on her hand, she cupped the little creature’s face and kissed the top of his head.
“Good job” Kiara smiled, I vampire sped toward her, wrapping my arms around her waist, lifting her to stand “hi”
“Hi” I chuckled leaning in to kiss her, she wrapped her arms around my neck deepening the kiss, I p
Kiara:“Well, Niklaus, how about you show me what you can do?” The man said looking at Klaus. Niklaus pulled me to stand behind him, his body tensing as he looked at the man who was suddenly standing in front of us, a smirk on his face. I couldn’t help but frown as my hands shook, this being the first time I’ve ever encountered anything like this.Children from around us hid behind their mother, fear in their eyes, fathers and young men kept their women or children well hidden behind them, protecting them from this man who was smirking a calm expression on his face despite the fear he knew he was radiating. Niklaus kept his hand in front of me, telling me not to get closer. I didn’t move from behind him, knowing that whatever we were about to deal with right now was nowhere near being sane or normal.“You finally came out of your hiding place” Niklaus said calmly, though I could tell that he was nowhere near being calm.
Niklaus:“Niklaus, who is that man?” Kiara asked as we entered the palace, the guards and maids bowing at the sight of us entering, Ian and Grace walking close behind. My anger could be seen a mile away, everyone in the palace was making it obvious as they kept their eyes down avoiding my wrath. Of course, I just saw the one man who was my sworn enemy and he dared approach my mate and kingdom. I could hear my princess’s racing heart as she followed me through the halls of the palace not answering her question, as my mind raced. I couldn’t even process how that bastard managed to enter the kingdom without getting noticed by the guards. How was it possible that I didn’t notice that he was there in front of me? I didn’t even catch his scent, and he was right in front of me. Hell, he even dared speak to me, and I didn’t even know that it was him.“Not now, Kiara” I warned walking toward our chamber, slamming the door sh
Kiara:I woke up feeling fatigue.My body felt like a thousand tons were walking over it, though I couldn’t help but smiling when I saw Niklaus softly running his fingers through my hair, my neck feeling a bit sore as his teeth were dug deep in my neck last night as he claimed me as his. His emotions had gotten the best of him when it came to King Verone’s state, and I was having a feeling that it was due to being sexually frustrated, the idea of the king being here was not just as bad as him being in the same room as my father. However, I wanted him to remember that he was the strongest of the kings, everyone should be fearing him, not the other way around.“Good morning my love” Niklaus said softly, his lips touching mine gently, the kiss he gave me was much different than the others, his eyes filled with love making my heart swell.“Morning” I said smiling as he pulled away, his finger ran over my collarbone, then up
Klaus:“You will protect my mate with your lives, do you understand?” I ordered looking at my guards who were in the throne room “while I’m inside this throne room, until Verone leaves, Kiara is not to leave the chamber”“Yes sire” the guards said at once, I nodded dismissing all of them before taking a deep breath trying to control myself. Kiara was not aware of Verone coming to the castle. I couldn’t see him out of the castle, it would be risking many people’s lives, however, I couldn’t risk the fact of him and Kiara being in the same room. If I knew Verone, then I knew that he would do his best to annoy me using my mate. He would sense and see my annoyance of him being here, and he would be using it to his advantage.But, I sadly needed to negotiate with him, especially after forcing his heart to grow back. He could come back for Kiara, he could come back to annoying the people, to trying and killing
Kiara:“Aiden” I scolded the little dragon who was jumping on top of the dresser. No matter how many times I scolded the little creature. He grew more stubborn as he grew.“You know that I won’t break anything” Aiden said looking at me with his big blue eyes. His eyes had stopped shifting in color and were now a dark royal blue, his scales were as black as night. A person couldn’t see him if he decided to sneak on him in the dark.“You know that I don’t like you getting on the dresser Aiden, whether or not you were going to break anything” I said scratching the little creature’s head, he leaned in to my touch, purring, and closing his beautiful eyes “now, get down before I get angry”“You’re acting like a mum” Aiden said jumping down making me laugh, he was growing faster than I had anticipated, I hadn’t even expected him to learn our language so fast. But acco
Niklaus:“What is the story of Verone? Who is that man? And why is he after your throne?” Kiara asked slowly. Her eyes stayed on mine as she watched my expression carefully. She wasn’t judgmental. I could tell that she was simply trying to understand, her hand held mine and she slowly intertwined our fingers letting me know that she was by my side, that she wasn’t going to judge or leave me.“He’s my twin brother Kiara” I said slowly waiting for her expression to change but she didn’t. Her eyes were as gentle and loving as they always were, and if I were not mistaken, they were even softer as she waited for me to continue with answering her questions “him and I were close long ago, we fought for the same cause, which was against the humans who were hurting our people. But Verone went too far, he wanted the people to submit to him, he was merciless, he lost his humanity, he started killing children for simply being h
Kiara: “You are upset with me” Niklaus stated wrapping his arm around my waist from behind and pulling me to his chest. My body involuntarily leaned into his touch despite my sadness of him hiding what he knew from me. “You hid something from me when we promised one another to be clear towards each other” I said in his arms. His arms tightened around me and he kissed my cheek from the back before softly turning me around to face him. His arms remained around me as he leaned in to my lips “Niklaus…” “Shh princess, allow me to explain why I did it first, then you have all the right to be angry with me” Klaus said softly. His lips connected with mine and a vision of a forest appeared in my head making me pull away from the kiss but Niklaus kept his arm wrapped around me, nodding as he encouraged me to kiss him. Slowly and carefully, I wrapped my arms around his neck, connecting our lips. The vision of the forest cleared itself in my mind and Niklaus tigh
Niklaus:“I will expect no excuses Lorenzo, Kiara is already a nervous wreck right now. She needs to be guarded at all times. Otherwise, we’ll find her trying to go to her mother” I said looking at Lorenzo who nodded at me. He knew Kiara more than I did. She would put herself in danger to protect her mother. Even in her worst states, even when her father put her life in danger, the two threatened her, locked her, hurt her, Kiara did nothing but protect her mother through everything making sure that the woman was never harmed by the man she called her father. It saddened me that I couldn’t help her sooner, I knew that I should have gotten her out of the man’s palace. But I also knew that she would have never come with me if she did.“But sire, if the princess decides to leave, what would I be doing to stop her? You know that she has grown a lot stronger, she will challenge King Leonardo” Lorenzo said stating a fact that I knew w
