LIRA'S POV
I wondered in he dark forest seeming to follow a figure which looked like a woman wearing a white dress.
"Hey wait up..stop, its not safe for you to wonder of like this here...Heyy, I'm talking to you.."..The figure just continued walking deep into the dark, making me follow it. I thought about going back but stopped as soon as the figure turned, showing its face to me.
"Aunt Sarah?"
She smiled and tilted her head to the side, instructing me to follow her.
"Hey, Sarah, where are.."before I could finish my question, in a flashed the scenery changed, and we were now in a battle field. Men in black armour and warewolves were fighting, slaughtering each other mercilessly. I gasped in horror as a man plunged his knife through a young girl's throat who was running away from the scene. I felt my heart stop when I heard the scream of the young girl, before I could comprehend what was happening, I saw a young boy, with black raven hair and exotic blue-grey eyes being pulled away from the scene by a blonde haired woman. Before she could get him inside the huge castle, an arrow flew from behind and went into the back of her waist. She sputtered blood and fell to her knees. The little boy screamed at his mother to get up. He pleaded but only to be dragged away and howled to a warewolf's back. He screamed in horror as a man plunged a knife into her neck.
Wait..Those eyes, Killian...
I gasped and jolted awake. I quickly scanned my surroundings. I sighed and wiped the sweat that covered my forehead. I got out of bed and groaned in pain, feeling my muscles complaining in pain. It felt like I was running through out my dream, literally.
I slowly padded my way to the bathroom. I turned on the shower, got undressed and entered the steamy waterfall. I sighed in contempt. I grabbed the body soap and started cleaning myself. I got to my neck and gasped in both pain and pleasure as I touched his mark.
"You're awake"..
"What the fuck..who said that?"..I looked around only to find myself alone in the shower.
I quickly got out and wrapped myself in a black towel.
I don't know what's going on but this is freaking me out..
I got out the bathroom with my towel still wrapped around my body. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings which is why I didn't notice Killian who was seated on the now made bed. I gasped and took a step back. He chuckled and stood up.
I watched as his beautiful body moved towards me. He was wearing black ribbed jeans and a grey tshirt with long sleeves. His hair was a little messy giving him that rough side I like.
He looks so good, I could just eat him up..
He smirked and pulled me into his chest.
"I'm glad you think about me that way little human.. but now is not the time because in a few hours you'll be introduced to the whole kingdom"
"Huh..?..think about you how?"..He smirked.
"Never mind that. Samantha will be here in a few minutes to get you ready for your coronation, which is in.." he pulled out his phone
"Two hours from now". My eyes widened and I pushed him off me
"What?..and you're telling me this now?."...
"..I don't..I'm not ready..I don't even have something to wear.. I.."..He grabbed me by my waist and smashed his lips with mine. The kiss was filled with passion and adoration. My heart fluttered and he smiled into the kiss.
"Hush sweetheart. I've got it all covered. You're ready, you just don't know it yet. I believe in you, don't worry about anyone tonight, just think about how you'll be able to help me around the kingdom and how good I'll be looking and how you'll just eat me up". With that he left me there, gawking at his back.
How the fuck did he know that..I didn't say it out loud did I?
My thoughts we cut off by the door slamming open revealing a grinning Sam. I smiled and before I could comprehend what was happening, I was pulled into a bone crushing hug.
"Umph...hum...human body here..".She here..".She quickly pulled back and chuckled.
"Oh..I'm so sorry...I just missed you so much". I smiled and pulled her into a hug, trying my best to crush her only to earn a sweet chuckle from her.
"Nice try. I know you missed me too". I grinned and nodded in return. To be honest I really did miss Sam. She's the only person besides Sarah and Mark who understands me.
"Now before we cry our hearts out about how much we've missed each other, lets get you ready for your coronation your highness".. I smiled at her as she pushed me to sit on the bed.
She pulled out a bag which contained makeup. Before I could protest she cut me off
"I know I know, you don't like makeup but I'll just apply minimum, to enhance those pretty eyes and lips of yours.
She pulled out a red mate lipstick and applied it on my lips, a mascara for my eyelashes. She continued adding eyeliner and a few eyeshadows to as she put it "give me that dramatic look".
Once she was done with my makeup, she started focusing on my hair. She didn't let me see my self.
She then pulled out a package that I never noticed was there. She opened the box and pulled out a beautiful navy dress. She smiled and ushered me to wear it. One the dress way on my body, I realised that I wasn't wearing any underwear.
"Hey Sam, I'm not wearing anything underneath. I think we."
"Nope..we're not taking it off besides we only have 15 minutes left before your coronation and we're giving Killian easy access"..She grinned mischievously and I groaned in embarrassment.
She pulled me towards the giant mirror and I gasped in amazement. The dress hugged my curves in the right places. It had an open back which ended just above my hips. The material was smooth and the two open slits on the sides of my thighs made it more sexy. Heck I felt sexy..
"Wow..is that me?..I look hot"..
She just rolled her eyes
"Well duh..I know I'm good." I chuckled and shook my head.
"Yeah, cocky like your cousin..you're definitely related to him.". She smiled cheekily.
She grabbed my hand and we made our way outside the house. A black car was already waiting for us. We got in and the driver drove us to the royal packhouse. The driver pulled behind the castle, to avoid anyone noticing my presence. Apparently, I wasn't supposed to be seen until the coronation.
She sneaked me into the huge castle and I found myself in Killian's room. She left me at his door. I pushed away all my nerves and knocked softly, pushing the door open after a few moments. I was met with the same dark and manly room that I've come to love. The room was dimly lit with candles making it look like a scene from a novel.
I took a deep breath and made my way towards the king sized bed.
"Killian..are you in here?".. I was met with silence. I looked for him in the bathroom then the closet but there was no sign of him.
What the fuck is going on?
A knock at the door rang in the room, making me walk towards the door to answer it.
"Ah..hello your highness"
I blinked a few times trying to
remember the man who was currently smirking at my door..
I gasped in shock
"You.."
His smirk grew and he bowed in respect. I quickly pulled him up for a bone crushing hug.
"Ohhh..well I wasn't expecting that, but okay..". He genuinely smiled at me
" I..I never thought I'd see you again..I'm..I'm glad because there's a lot I want to thabk you for". He chuckled
"No, don't ..there's no need for you to thank me..I was merely protecting my brother's mate..". I smiled at him and hugged him again, unable to contain the happiness that was washing over me. I couldn't believe he was here, the man who saved me from the woman who gave birth to me. Because of him, I'm alive today, he saved me and brought me to the love of my life. I'll be forever greatful to him.
"Nonetheless, I still want to thank you..so thank you for saving my life that day." He grinned and intertwined our fingers and guided me towards the hall which led to the coronation room.
"Well since you've thanked me, I can just say, it's what I do best"..ahh cocky, just like his little brother ..I rolled my eyes playfully.
We approached a huged double door that led inside the room, which I assume was filled with a lot warewolves ready to judge how weak and pathetic I am. I felt the panic setting in. My hands felt sweaty and I swallowed the lump that threatened to block my throat.
Jacob must've noticed my panicking because he suddenly stop moving and turned to face my fearful face.
"Hey, calm down princess..Don't worry they'll like you. Even if they don't, fuck them because they don't have a choice but to accept you as our queen and Killian's mate.". His words went in my mind but still wouldn't calm me down. I was about to turn back when I heard his voice again.
"Calm down little human. I'm always here with you."
In an instant I was calm. Jacob noticed this and smirked
"Well, seems like Killy has his ways, as usual". I stared at him in confusion.
"Huh?.."
"Never mind, its time". With that being said, the double doors opened, revealing a hundreds of people waiting for my arrival.
"Don't worry you'll be fine.. good luck princess"
With that he left my side and disappeared to the fields of people. I slowly entered the room, which was now quiet. All eyes were on me and that was what made me more nervous. The crowd parted, making a passage for me to walk forward.
I just hope I don't fall
"You won't fall, lift up your eyes mate".
My eyes snapped towards the stairs that led to the top which had a throne. My eyes locked with his blue-greys and everything seized to exist. I couldn't take my eyes off him. He sat there like the king he is, all gloomy and handsome. His raven hair was nicely styled, having a black crown, crafted with navy stones, matching with the color of my dress. He slowly stood up, never breaking eye contact. It felt like it was just me in him in the room.
My eyes roamed around his muscular body, which was covered in white dress shirt along with a black tailored Armani suit. Fuck he looks so hot..
He smirked, seeming to understand my thoughts
He graciously glided down the stairs. With each step he took, it felt like eternity. I wanted him close, so close that I'd be abled to feel him onto me. My feet were moving on their own, guiding me to him. His smirk was evidence that he knew just how he affected me. He moved so close that he was just a breath away. My heart felt like it was running a marathon. I had to crane my neck a bit because of his height. He looked even more beautiful up close. His eyes traveled all over my body, leaving a trail of heat where they traveled.
"You.. you look beautiful mate". He said. This was the first time I ever heard Killian stutter. I was shocked but decided not to show it. I smiled and thanked him. He intertwined our hands together and guided me to the throne, where he sat me down. He then moved to stand on my right and Mike then stood at the left, with Sam, who was now wearing a beautiful red dress, matching with Mike's tie, who was wearing a black suit. He smiled at me.
Two elderly men appeàred from the crowd, one carrying a black crown adorned with navy diamonds and the other carrying a knife on one of his hands and a small bowl. They bowed in respect and the one in the blue robe cleared his throat.
"Your highnesses, royal betas, alphas and Lunas. We are gathered here to crown her majesty, queen Lira the rightful mate to the true alpha, king of warewolves."
"..Without futher due, please step foward your highness". Killian helped me up and to the two elders who were standing a few steps infront of the throne.
He then started chanting in native tongues. He then took the knife and reached for my right hand, which I gave without any resistance. I was determined to show them that I wasn't scared, that I was prepared and ready to be their queen. I wanted them to know that being human didn't mean that I was weak.
He sliced my palm and then collected the blood into the bowl he was carrying. He chanted a few verses the nodded for Killian to slice his hand. He did the same thing then mixed the blood together. He then turned to face me.
"Now you will drink from this secret bowl. This will strengthen the bond between you and your mate, as a king and a queen to warewolves."
Well shit..I didn't prepare for this..what if I throw up?..oh no..I. I don't..
"Lira, calm down. You'll be fine. I'm here, just focus on me". His voice appeared on my head again.. I decided to follow Killian's advice and then went ahead and took a gulp of the blood. I felt the taste of the liquid. I felt it coming back up and quickly swallowed it. I blinked a few times and then I felt it. All the emotions came in and hit me likre train. I regained myself before falling on my face. I felt more connected to all of them. It was like I could feel wheir emotions, which was weird because I wasn't a warewolf. I had so many qiestions but decided to ask them later because now was not the time. I turned to faced the crowd, it was so silent that I almost forgot that there were people watching this.
They nodded in appreciation and respect. I had to supress a smile because I was happy that I met their standards..well at least I hoped I did. I moved to sit on the throne.
The second elder approached me and bowed in respect, he then placed the crown on my head and turned to face the audience.
"I now present to you her highness, queen Lira of the warewolves".
The crowd cheered and clapped in appreciation.
I then stood up from the throne and moved to stand where Killian was, with him now taking my place at the throne. He interwined his hand with mine and faced the crowd.
"Wow..so this is everyone huh? I thought you were joking when you said there's many of your kind..Look at this crowd, its just wow..". He smiled cheekily
"This place is too small to hold every warewolf in my kingdom. The people you're seeing here are the ones on higher ranks, alphas, lunas and pack generals. They're the only ones allowed to attend the coronation. You'll meet all of my people by visiting the packs. " My eyes widened in astonishment. Wow.. just how big was his kingdom? I didn't notice that he was no longer on his throne but was now infront of me.
"Come on, dance with me". I smiled and placed my hand on his and followed his lead. He lead us to the ballroom, which was occupied by couples who were either dancing or socializing. They made way for us, bowing in respect.
He placed one of his hands on my waist and the other on the small of my back. I gasped, feeling the tingles erupt from my stomach. I placed both of my hands on his chest and felt his body shiver from my touch. My heart fluttered, it made me happy that I affected him just as he affected me. Our eyes locked and my breath my knocked out of my chest. Those eyes always take my breath away, hypnotizing me, keeping me under his spell. He started moving and I followed his lead. I never felt like this and I don't think I'll ever will. Every moment with him felt new and better than before. We could just be sitting and I'd fall deeper. I realized a long time ago that I was a goner, nothing would make me want to stay away from him. He was the drug that I loved getting addicted to. I wanted nothing more than for us to be like this, forever, in each other's arms.
The dance lasted for a few minutes. We decided to ditch the ceremony. As we left the hall, he hoisted me up his shoulder because ny feet were sore from those six inch heels Sam made me wear.
It only took him a few minutes to reach him room. He placed me on my feet once we entered his room. It was past midnight, the moon illuminated the room. He turned my around. His hands started roaming all over my body, leaving heat everywhere they went. His lips connected with mine. The kiss was soft and sweet, driving me crazy because I was hot with need. His lips left mine and moved to my neck. He left open mouth kisses, moving to where he marked me. The moment his lips touched the mark, I couldn't stop the moan that came out. His hands caressed my ass. He was getting me all worked up and he knew it.
"Killian, I need more..". He smirked and and turned me around, making my back to now face his front. He ribbed off the dress and I heard him take in a sharp breath. I mentally thanked Sam for convincing me not to wear any panties.
"...So beautiful..". He turned me around and slammed his lips onto mine. He bit my lower lip, and I granted him access to my mouth. His tongue danced with mine in an erotic way. This kiss was hot and passionate. I felt my core tighten, releasing a pool of wetness down my tighs. I fumbled with his shirt, which got discarded in mere seconds along with his dress pants. He was now only in his briefs while I, in my birthday suit.
"You're Mine.. and I'm going to fuck you like you've never been fucked. I won't stop even if you beg me to.".. He growled and pushed me onto the king sized bed....
