48 Two More to Go
Victor POV
I wake up wrapped around my beautiful mate. I still sometimes feel like I’m dreaming. The goddess is truly amazing and I will be grateful for her blessings every day of my life. I can’t believe that a few weeks ago we were living outside the castle and now we are part of the kingdom. I wish my sister got to experience this with us. Lia was such a beautiful person inside and out. It breaks my heart that she will never get to find her mate or have pups. A soft kiss on my shoulder brings me out of my thoughts. When I turn to Esme, I can see her love for me but also sadness. She is feeling my emotions through our bond. She places her hand on my face. “I wish I got to know her better. I’m sure we would have been great friends. I’m sorry that you lost her because of those evil people.” I take her hand from my face and place a soft kiss on her palm. “She would have been so happy that we were mates. She always said how kind you were. I think that’s why she didn’t think twice when she accepted the mission of taking Luna away from the kingdom. She thought it was you asking her.” I can feel Lyle pushing to the surface. “She will pay today and then we will do everything we can to live the life that Lia would have wanted us to”, Lyle says. “Let’s go shower. I want to see how everything went last night at the ceremony for Jade’s sister”, Esme says. I press a soft kiss on her lips before we head to the shower. Needless to say, it’s not a quick shower and that is perfectly fine with me. Once we are both dressed, we head to the private dining room. William is seated with a woman I can scent is a human. “Good morning”, William says. Esme has the biggest smile on her face as she looks between William and the woman.
“Esme and Victor, this is my mate, Gwen. Gwen is Maverick’s mother.” Esme releases my hand, squealing as she runs around the table. She wraps Gwen in a hug and I can’t help but laugh at her enthusiasm. My mate is truly the sweetest, kindest woman I have ever met. “Congratulations William and Gwen”, I say, and they both thank me. “Sit and join us, Luca and Jade will be joining us shortly”, William says. We sit and plates are placed in front of us by one of the kitchen staff. The food is always amazing and I dig in. Brooklyn and Sherman walk in with Luna a few minutes later. She is a precious little girl and I’m glad that the evil f**ks in the cells didn’t accomplish their goals of getting rid of her. I will never know how someone could try and hurt a pup. I know that I would lose my mind if anyone ever tried to hurt Esme or our future pups. Esme smiles and I realize she is listening to my inner monologue through our bond. She squeezes my hand and I smile back. The door to the room opening again gets everyone’s attention. Luca and Jade walk in with huge smiles on their faces and take their seats. Before I can shove another bite of food into my mouth, Jade’s scent change invades my nose. Her scent is that of a pregnant wolf. I whip my head in her direction and she winks at me.
Jade POV
After we leave the hospital, we head to the dining room. Luca and I can’t wait to tell everyone what we learned during the ultrasound. When we enter the dining room and I see Victor, I know he will be able to scent the fact that I’m pregnant. I know I’m right when I see the look on his face. Luca takes my hand in his before he turns back to everyone at the table. “Jade and I have an announcement to make. We found out yesterday that we were having a puptchling.” Everyone looks at Luca like he has lost his mind. We were talking about names last night and we decided to call them puptchlings instead of peanuts. “What does that mean exactly,” William says. “Jade is expecting and we are having twins.” Gwen, Brooklyn, and Esme all jump out of their seats and run over wrapping me in a hug. William’s laughter gets my attention, “So you plan to call my grandchildren puptchlings because they are hybrid dragon wolves.” “Pretty much”, Luca says, and William laughs harder. It’s so good to see the change in him. He is happy and though it may take time, I know that he and Luca will have a stronger relationship now. They both deserve that after everything they have been through. Luna is sitting on my lap while
we finish having breakfast. I wish we could just spend the day with our family and in this happiness, but today is the day we deal with the two traitors in the cells.
After we finish breakfast, Esme kisses Victor and walks over to take Luna from me. I walk back to our room and grab two of the truth serum vials from my top drawer. I rejoin Luca, William, and Victor. We make our way down to the cells. The guards bare their necks when they see us and step aside. Monica is sitting in the first cell. When she sees Luca she smiles, but after she notices me, her eyes turn cold. “This is all your fault, you mutt. You turned him against me.” Before Luca can say anything, I step forward. She has been given a serum to suppress her dragon but I know Luca doesn’t want me to be anywhere near her. I am close enough she can hear me but far enough away that my mate won’t lose his mind. “You are a delusional b**ch. He was never yours and now, because of what you have done, you are going to die in this cell. Luca and I are going to live our lives with our children and be happy” I say placing my hands on my still flat belly. Her eyes go to my hands and she screams. “You can’t be.” “Oh, but I am with twins.” Luca wraps his arms around me from behind and kisses my head. “Love, I think Victor is ready to be done with this evil b**ch.” I step back and take Luca’s hand. “I don’t think you need to even waste the serum on her Jade. Her father didn’t trust her to keep her mouth shut,” Luca links me. “I agree, she is useless and the world will be a better place once she isn’t in it.”
I turn back to Monica. “Monica, you have been sentenced to death for your attempt to kill the future Queen of the Dragon Kingdom and for the murder of Lia Conlon.” “You are not queen. You have no right to sentence me.” I laugh “the moment I mated and marked my king, I became Queen. Victor Conlon will carry out your sentence.” Her head whips in Victor’s direction. His eyes are black as night. The guard opens the door and Victor steps inside. She begins to scream and attempts to get away from him, but he quickly has her pinned to the wall. “I wanted you to suffer but now I realize that I don’t want you to breathe the same air as the people I love for a minute longer. A loud crack is heard when he snaps her neck and drops her body to the floor. When he walks out of the cell, I wrap him in a hug. “Go to your mate. We will finish the rest.” He pulls back “thank you Jade.” He looks at Luca and something unspoken passes between them before Victor leaves.
Luca POV
As I watch Jade deal with Monica, pride swells in my chest. She is truly an amazing mate. I plan to talk to her about having her coronation in two weeks. She will always be my queen, but I want the whole kingdom to celebrate my mate. That is what she deserves. Once Victor leaves, we head to Timothy’s cell. He looks so broken and I smile knowing that it’s about to get even worse. Jade hands me the vial and my father pulls a syringe from one of the drawers. Once I have filled the syringe, my father and I head inside. I was glad when Jade agreed to stay outside the cells. I knew she would never agree to stay with Esme but I appreciated the compromise. I turn my attention to the ba**ard chained to the table. “Just kill me and get it over with” he spits out with all the venom he can muster. I laugh before I slam my hands down on the table in front of him. “I say when you die and I’m not done getting information from you.” “I told you I won’t tell you sh*t.” “I remember what you said but that’s the beautiful thing about my new family. I don’t need you to do it willingly” I say as I show him the syringe in my hands. He starts to thrash against the restraints and I laugh again. My father grabs hold of him and I stab the syringe into his arm. Once I’ve pushed all the purple liquid into his skin, I step back.
I can see him trying to fight against the serum. I pull out the chair across from him and take a seat. “Now let’s play twenty questions.” He starts to shake his head and purse his lips. “Besides your b**ch of a daughter who is dead, by the way, and those four council members, who else are you working with against me?” He struggles but after a few minutes he has no choice but to give in. “Madelena and Wesley” he says and I see my father stiffen out of the corner of my eye. “What exactly is the end game Timothy?” “They want you both dead and control of the kingdom.” I laugh “Wesley may be younger than my father but he would never be made king. The kingdom would never accept him.” “Do you think that you’re Madelena’s only hatchling” he says with a smirk. “If you are both dead their hatchlings will be next in line for the throne” Timothy says and I feel my control slipping. My aura darkens and I know I shouldn’t let Jade see this side of me, but right now I can’t stop myself. I walk over to the cabinet and pull out a dagger. I grab a vial that is full of a potent serum that is like acid on a dragon’s skin. I dip the dagger inside and walk toward Timothy. His eyes get big and I drag the blade down each of his arms.
He screams and it is like music to my ears. “Where are Madelena and Wesley right now?” He manages to stop screaming long enough to tell me that they have a cabin outside the kingdom’s territory. I slam the blade into his hand and Sebastian roars as he pushes to the surface. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
My breathing is heavy and I’m ready to slam the blade down into his other hand when I feel love and peace wash over me. I turn and Jade’s eyes are on mine. I pull myself from the depths of darkness. “Luca, go to Jade. I will finish him and then we will deal with Wesley and Madelena.” I look into my father’s eyes and nod. Once I’m outside the cell, Jade wraps herself around me. She buries her head in my neck and her scent surrounds me. I carry her out of this hell and back to our room. I walk into the bathroom and we manage to undress without letting each other go. I step inside the shower with my beautiful mate in my arms. “Jade” I start to say and she cuts me off with a kiss. She pours all the love she has for me into this kiss. She doesn’t see me as a monster. I’m so grateful that she loves me even in my darkest moments. She pulls back staring into my eyes. “I love you, Luca. Nothing will ever change that.” “I love you, Jade. I will spend the rest of my life loving you and the lives we have created.” I set her on her feet before I go to my knees and press my lips to her belly. “I can’t wait to meet you little ones.”
Madelena POV
“Lucy, get your brother ready now. We will be leaving in twenty minutes.” She takes Liam’s hand and rushes from the room. She knows better than to question me. I never wanted more hatchlings but we needed to have an heir for when we take over the kingdom. We will have control but Liam will have the title. He will do whatever we say because we have made him weak. He knows what will happen if he doesn’t listen to Wesley. He is only fourteen now, so that will give us time to make sure the kingdom fears us before he takes the title. I wish he was born first, but of course, we had to have a girl. Lucy is seventeen, so at least we had a slave to take care of the house and Liam. I never wanted to be a mother, but I would do anything for Wesley. The goddess truly f**ked up when she mated me to William because the only man I will ever want is Wesley. The door opens and my handsome mate steps inside.
“Are you ready to go and get what should have been ours from the beginning Maddy?” I stand and walk toward him. “I have never been more ready. If I know my son the minute he sees the two brats, he will let his guard down completely. William made Luca weak and now it’s time to eliminate the so-called king.” He slams his lips down on mine and I feel it in my core. A noise brings us out of our lust. I look toward the hallway and Lucy is standing there. I can see that she heard everything and she is looking at us with a look of shock. I walk over and slap her across the face, knocking her off her feet. I grab her chin and make her look into my eyes. “You will keep your f**king mouth shut or I will kill your precious Liam.” I see tears in her eyes and I know she won’t open her mouth. She acts like she gave birth to the little ba**ard. “Good, now move your a**.” She rushes to her feet and goes to get Liam. Once we are all in the car, we drive to the gate. I smile knowing that we will soon have everything we have ever wanted.
