Cayden's POV

To just simply call her beautiful would not be enough. Looking in to her eyes was not enough, I want

her near me, in my arms. She has taken up space in my head, consuming my thoughts.

For so many years I had given up on love or even the sick idea of it but here I am, welcoming it back in

to my life. This sneaky little fire cracker, came in to my life for her own selfish reasons and I should be

consumed with anger that someone would try con their way in to my kingdom but I couldn't be more

intrigued.

That same curiosity led me to a whole new world, meeting the very woman that led to my mother's

curse, to my curse and only to have her daughter steal my cold heart. Risking my rule, my kingdom just

to have her in my life, to have her with me as my queen.

I didn't want to manipulate her in to coming here but I had no other choice. I will not force her in to bed

with me, I'm not that desperate. Maybe I am desperate but I'm not the monster everyone thinks I am. I

will not violate her like that, I just need her to feel what I feel or at the very least, give me the chance to

show her how I feel inside amd hopefully the vampire side of her will fall for me.

For what I have done, she will forgive me eventually. I just need her vampire to recognize me as her

king and to recognize herself as much queen.

"So, where did our people go?" Josey asks me and I smile.

I loved hearing her voice and when she said our people, well...

"They are here." I say pointing at the castle, the castle ruins.

"So they all burned to death?" Josey asks me and I chuckle.

"No, they are underground. I have an underground lair, built for when I meet gorgeous women who trick

me in to letting them be queen only to spy on my kingdom." I say and Josey smiles.

She quickly looks away from me and looks at what is in front of us.

I walk past her and she follows. We walk all the way around the castle and a few feet ahead, was a

small cottage. I open the door, letting Josey walk in first.

"Well, this is not underground." Josey points out and I nod my head yes.

"I agree with you there." I say before walking to a bookshelf, moving the shelf to the side, revealing

stairs that lead underground. I look up to a smiling Josey and I return the smile.

I walk in first, leading the way until we get to a door. I bang on it three times then two times and lastly

just once. After a few seconds, it opens.

A few men stand by door, bowing their heads in respect at me and making way for us to get in.

Josey looks around, seeming impressed by the layout of the place. I gently grab her hand and lead her

away from the commoners who looked on with interest. Women start making their way to me but I

ignore their advances, shocking them.

"This is like a castle underneath a whole castle. It is amazing!" Josey compliments.

"That was the plan I was going with when I was advised to build this. Who knew it would actually come

in handy, stopping your people from making vampires an extinct species like dinosaurs." I say and

Josey growls.

"Don't forget you kidnapped newborn pups." Josey reminds me.

"Touchè.." I say in response.

I open the door for Josey, letting her walk in to my private room first. I close the door behind me as she

looks around.

There was not much to the room except for a king size bed and two couches with a coffee table. The

room had a small bar fridge which had blood bags in them, I take two out and throw one to Josey.

The whole room was brightened up by the white sheets and white leather couches, by the lamps

around the room and now, Josey. Who was standing in the middle of the room and even in this small

room, she looked beautiful.

"We should be out there, trying to find a new castle for you and your people.." Josey says and I lift my

eyebrow at her.

"The castle is ruined so where to from here? We can't stay here forever you know. Also, don't tell your

people about your time up there." Josey says to me.

"Won't even mention it. Rest up, we leave by nightfall to our new home. They were just waiting for me."

I say as Josey plops herself on my bed.

"Where is Thomas?" Josey asks and I shrug.

"Somewhere out there." I say as I sit on the couch, opening up my blood bag before I drink it all up in

one go.

Josey was still looking at the blood bag when I got my second bag out. They didn't give me any blood

in that prison and I was slowly losing my mind.

I fed a little on Josey's mates but she didn't need to know that.

"Are you going to drink? At least we didn't have to kill anyone for the blood." I say and Josey shakes

her head no.

"No. You didn't kill a weak defenseless human for it and I'm glad. I just think it's cold so I'll wait until it

warms up." Josey tells me but I knew she wouldn't touch it.

She still had her human side, no thanks to her wolf. That damn wolf kept her in check, being her

subconscious and reprimanding her when necessary. I wish I had that to be honest but after my first

taste of blood from a warm body, I was a goner.

My sister could not feed on a human too, she preferred the bags. The blood was donated and nobody

had to die in the process but we take donated blood, taking from the ones that will need it at some

stage so in the end, we do kill them... but what do I know?

"I came here to give you the chance to show that you love me. You don't have much time unless your

plan was to just drink blood with me and bond with my vampire?" Josey asks and I smile.

"You're right. The plan is to win you over but I say you take the time to rest. I promise once we get up

there, there will be no stopping me." I say as I make myself comfortable on the couch.

Waiting for the time to come where Josey accepts her place by my side.

Soon my love. Soon.

Sabrina's POV

"Anthony, I don't trust the way Josey was so eager to go back with Cayden. After what he did to her

mates, I mean hours ago she hated him and almost killed his sister but now she was more than happy

to go back and finish her mission." I say looking at Anthony who was still smiling from hearing me call

Hunter something else.

"So? Maybe she just wants to finish her mission." Anthony says and I shrug.

"Maybe. Maybe that's the reason but I can't shake the feeling that we are wrong so I need you to to

follow them." I say.

"You want me to spy?" Anthony asks and I smile sheepishly.

"I need you to spy. Make sure Josey is still alive and well too. I can keep an eye on them here but I

need someone on the ground too." I say and Anthony let's out a sigh.

"I better not get caught. I still have to meet my true mate and here you are sending me off to be

vampire breakfast." Anthony jokes and I roll my eyes.

"Is it not nightfall soon there?" Mother asks.

"Yes. The time that they wake up.. oh how hungry they will be." Anthony says before disappearing.

"Mother, I need you to go back and check on father. Make things right with him and his wolf, I will try

find a way to reverse your fake mate bond and maybe give my father another chance at love. True love

but until then, you go say your sorry." I say looking at my mother.

"And Hunter, I need you to arrange my school attendance. I'm ready to be the moon goddess, the time

for playing is over. I need to grow up and take my rightful place." I say and Hunter smiles.

"I'm on it." He says before walking out.

I nod my head at mother, who then disappears off.

I walk out of my office and straight for the recovery room to pay Cherisse a visit.

She was awake but I'm sure it will take sometime for her to heal and for the bone to reattach itself.

Josey man.

"Hello Cherisse." I say as I sit down on a chair next to her bed. She looks at me then looks away.

"Where is my brother? And I need blood." Cherisse says in a bratty voice.

"Your brother is back on earth." I say and Cherisse looks at me.

"He left me here?" She shouts out and I nod my head yes.

"What is his obsession with that damn wolf?! He is barely thinking straight." Cherisse thinks out loud.

"I was hoping you would give me answers to that." I say

"Cayden is obsessed with having a child, needing an heir so if he believes that Josey is capable of

providing him with what he needs then he will go as far as compelling her to do what he wants."

Cherisse tells me.

"I thought a vampire couldn't do that to another vampire..." I say. I am shocked at this revelation, I

thought Josey was safe from compulsion.

"Yes, I can't do it to another vampire but Cayden is a special kind. He is the first of our kind, walking in

the sun and all. This is why he is our king, his abilities know no end and every damn time, he surprises

us. We almost killed your sister's mates, do you honestly believe she would willingly go back with him?"

Cherisse says to me and I start to feel nauseous.

"This explains her eagerness to go back with him." I say and Cherisse chuckles.

"You just handed my brother exactly what he wanted. With Josey, he has all that he needs to give him

children that will rule the world." Cherisse says to me.

"We can't let that happen." Cj says behind me.

"If he compelled her, I'm not sure what we can do to break it." I say and Cj walks up to me and

Cherisse.

"Then we kill him. We kill the vampire king." Cj says and Cherisse let's out a gasp.

Josey is mated. She can't possibly go through with this right?

The elders rush in carrying Chase and Clayton, who looked worse than before.

"What happened?" I ask and the elders look down, afraid to answer me as my power was released.

Evan walks in right after, looking grim.

"I'm afraid Cayden did not turn them. He fed on them, decreasing the silver in their system but after

some time, the silver creeped up on their hearts again. I'm afraid this time, they don't have much time."

Evan tells me.

I walk out of the recovery room, grabbing CJ's hand and we head back to earth. I follow Josey's

essence which leads me right to a cottage door.

Anthony jumps out from hiding.

"I thought it was my mission to spy on Josey." Anthony jokes.

"It was until I found out that Cayden used compulsion on Josey. I will not let my sister be tricked. If

Cayden wants my sister, he will have to win her heart without any manipulations." I say.

"Will her wolf let her?" Anthony asks and I shrug.

"She's compelled, her wolf is powerless to that." I say before breaking down the door and throwing a

ball of fire in to the cottage.

Four men rush out but the sun was still setting, turning them to ash within seconds.

We watched the cottage catch fire for a few seconds before the whole cottage was drenched in water.

An angry Josey walks out, giving me the stank eye.

"Why?" She asks stomping her feet towards us.

"Cayden did not turn Clayton and Chase, he only fed on them. They are dying Josey." I say and she

shakes her head no.

"I'm here on a mission. If this is some sick twisted plot to get me to walk away from my mission, then

I'm sorry. I am not going anywhere!" Josey shouts out.

Ouch. Why does she always think I I nothing good for her?

"You think I would come here, torch this little cottage and lie about your mates dying just to get you to

drop this mission?" I say, annoyance clear in my voice.

Cayden walks out, in changed clothing.

"Tell her." I say and he smiles, placing his one arm around Josey's waist.

"Tell her what?" He asks me and Cj growls.

"Tell her that you didn't turn her mates but fed on them instead. You needed to feed on them to get the

energy to use compulsion on her." I say and Cayden chuckles.

Josey falls to her knees and screams out in pain.

'Chase is gone, your Serene highness. He has left us.' Evan says to me through mindlink.

Josey continues to scream as tears fall on my face.

"What's happening?" Josey asks looking up at me.

"Josey, Chase is dead." I say and Josey shakes her head no.

Cj kneels down in front of Josey and pulls her in for a hug. Anthony releases his power.

Forcing Cayden to drop to his knees and to bow his head. Anthony walks up to Cayden, pulls him by

his hair and punches him on his face.

Cayden turns blue, alerting us of his power but Anthony maintains his grip on Cayden. Seemingly

unaffected by Cayden's icy nature.

"I didn't properly introduce myself. I'm Anthony from the first werewolf family and you just killed a

member of my family." Anthony says before he himself, emits a coldness that one feels when touching

ice.

Anthony.

I was finally witnessing one of his powers.

Cayden's eyes bulge out before Anthony throws a ball of fire back in the cottage, where loud screams

could be heard before the entire cottage blew up.

Anthony punched Cayden again before throwing him to the ground. He walked in to the cottage, that

was engulfed in flames. Even louder screams could be heard as the fire became stronger.

Anthony walks out with a frozen Thomas, throwing him on the ground next to Cayden. Cayden gets on

his knees to check on Thomas but before he could touch him, Anthony rips his head off.

"The next time you plot to kill my family, make damn sure you have nothing to lose." Anthony says

before grabbing Cayden by the neck and disappearing with him.

Josey screams out again as Evan tells me about Clayton. Cj tries to comfort her but it was no use.

I help them both up before taking us back to the castle. Josey runs to the recovery room as Cj and I

follow Anthony's scent.

It was not the first time I see Anthony fight but it was the first time he showed such emotion. The first

time I witness such a power.

I had forgotten my brother was the heir to the first family throne. He would take after my father and

obviously had to be just as strong, if not stronger.

We are twins.

He had to be born with powers and it was clear I needed better training on my abilities. Anthony,

trained by Hunter, just proved that I needed to go to school so I can better use my gifts.

While Hunter sorts out my school stuff, my main focus right now is Josey.

I don't know how we are going to move past this and I don't know how to approach this.

Cayden was back in his cell, unconscious. Anthony was standing there, looking at Cayden and fuming.

"Let me kill him. Please." Anthony asks me and I don't respond.

"I think we should kill him. Goddess knows what other plans he has up his sleeve." Cj advises and I

remain quiet.

Did he really have to go that far to get Josey? Was it really necessary?

I would have been more okay with him just using compulsion but killing her mates?

"No. Don't kill him." Josey says from behind us. We all turn around to face her.

"I know why he killed them. He did everything to get to my vampire. He did all of this to awaken her, for

me to feed." Josey says to us. Her eyes red, showing her vampire's presence.

"He wanted me to come in to my new self. With my wolf weakened, the vampire in me finds strength.

You will not kill him as I am his and he is now mine." Josey says and we all just stand there, stunned.

Could it be? Cayden outsmarted us all and killed her mates to kill her wolf? But her wolf was still there,

just weak from losing her two mates.

Although now, if Josey's vampire is stronger when Josey's wolf is weak, she will never allow the wolf to

heal.

What have I done by allowing Josey to turn?

Arianna comes running to us, she was visibly shaking. Cj pulls her in for a side hug as Arianna grabs

my hands.

"The war is on. Josey will have a son, a half wolf and half vampire with abilities. The only one that can

defeat him is Adrastos, I believe that is why we had the vision of your son being the only one to win this

war for all of us." Arianna says.

What.The.Fuck!?
