Epilogue Part 1
SEVERAL MONTHS LATER… (A few weeks after the epilogue of Leo & Azura’s book)
SKYLA.
“You got the drinks?!” I shout to Kataleya.
“Check!” She calls back. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Exams are over and I’m finally free!
Ok, not so much as we’ve begun working on a new training programme called the Elite X. 1
Training has been upped in the academies and in packs, but the Elite X, a name chosen by
Azura, our future sexy bad-ass queen is an entirely new ball game. 1
The Elite X will further the training of warriors from around the country, those who excel in their fields or have graduated from the academy at the top of the charts in training, fitness, and power.
This is the future.
We are the future.
There is a war coming, and the truth is we will have to face it when it does. We don’t know when and we don’t know exactly what we will face but we will prepare and be ready for it.
I am one of the first ones working on the programme and will be one of the leads in the facility. There’s more to my job than just that, I will be one of the head trainers, something I wasn’t expecting to be
offered.
There’s a lot more both Royce and I need to do. We are now the bridge between the two kingdoms.
Everything happening here, we are trying to implement it over there in the US but the thing is, this is the centre point where everything will go down.
Here, in England, that’s something that Dante confirmed.
So, I guess we better be at the top of our game when shit goes down.
Currently, Royce’s uncle, Catherine’s brother will continue to run the American pack, but he does not have children of his own.
With the importance the Solaris Bloodline.
Packs put in their lineage, it only makes sense. that those that hold the strongest traits of the Solaris Bloodline continue to head both packs.
With Royce as the Solaris king, he is the embodiment of the first Solaris wolves ever created and everyone has hope that our kids would be too.
Yeah kids, so fucking weird when Edward said that, but Royce and I agree there will be no kids for a while.
I mean, I need time with him, just him and as much as I know we need to continue our line… I don’t want to bring a child into a world that might get fucked.
Yeah, that’s a thought I am going to keep to myself. I’ll have kids when this shit is over… if I fucking make it.
I won’t be sworn in as Alpha until his uncle steps down. He’s currently happy to run the pack for a while and both Royce and I aren’t arguing with that. It just means there’s not as much work on our heads for now.
However, we had a celebration over there.
I met the pack as their future Alpha and their Queen. The Solaris court was all there too, and it was a fuckin big thing and I felt like a damn queen, it was weird as fuck.
When the time comes for me to head that pack, we will rotate between both places. Right now, the Shadow Wolves needed our attention.
Charlotte’s going to attend the academy next year, and Catherine; well, she spends her time between here and Azura’s pack. Uncle Marcel and Winona had twin baby girls and Catherine loves to be there for them too.
Royce is great with his nieces, and I won’t lie – seeing him with them did make me feel weird as fuck wondering what he’d be like if we ever had a kid.
Ri is doing ok, I mean, as good as you can without your mate. Tatum is transferring to
Midnight Academy rather than staying up at Moonlight Academy, which is closer to his
home. At least this way he’ll be with friends. 3
Alessandra and Heaven will go there too,
although the way it’s changing makes the severity of what is coming even more real.
Right now, there are six of us who flew out for a little weekend away and Corrado and Phoenix are left with Winona, Catherine, and even
Mama Red is down there to help out. I heard even Mama Mari went down.
I guess they’ll have fun with each other as a company too.
“Song’s on call!” Azura shouts as she struts. into the villa kitchen wearing a royal blue bikini. Her lips are a gorgeous glossy nude and she’s got her nails to match.
We booked this place for a weekend away and tonight we are hanging out by the pool and having a barbecue. It’s just six of us, Leo, Zu, Kat, Dante, Magic Fingers, and myself. 4
I think we all needed it. Recently, something. weird as fuck happened up north in the Scottish. Highlands. It’s kinda creepy, but hey, we dealt with Apophis. This is something we’ll deal with too… 5
Despite the warm weather, thinking about what happened sends a shiver down my spine.
Something new is out there… something that is killing people.
All those who are found dead hold a look of pure terror on their face, and their bodies hold no signs of being attacked.
The locals say it’s the Baobhan Sith, a demonic woman who robs the souls of all men. We doubt that, but then again with the amount of new shit that is coming, we can’t be sure, no one is left alive to tell their tale. Only a few weeks ago, an entire pack house was found dead. 11
Dad and Leo had to relocate the rest of the pack and clear the area and although it’s being watched, no clue was found nor did the one behind it ever show again.
“What is she saying?” I ask as I walk over to Azura and look at her screen.
“Hey…” she says smiling at me. 1
“Hey girl, how are you doing?” I ask.
“Great, almost ready for my date.” She answers, blushing.
I glance at Azura, who smirks. “Mhmm, give me all the deets later.” She says.
I smirk. “Yeah, we need to know.”
Atlas had found out he was mated to Song back when shit went down with Apophis, but because she was a witch, she didn’t even know. A few months ago, he told Azura and asked if he had her approval to pursue Song. 25
See? So damn cute, like who the fuck asks for permission? 1
Well, Azura approved and although Song has been taking it slow, they’ve been making good progress.
“How long does it take to get drinks?” Leo calls.
I roll my eyes. “Not as quick as it takes Azura to climb a ladder!” I snicker. 3
Azura smirks before Song giggles. “I won’t keep you guys! Say hi to Kat for me, send pictures of the food and stuff, miss you guys.” She says.
As much as we would have loved to invite her, it’s not fair on Dante either, as he has to really work on pulling his powers in whereas with us, the spells and the necklace are pretty much enough.
“We will,” Azura says before we end the call.” Right, let’s get our sexy butts out there.”
I nod as I look in the mirror. We girls had just gotten ready as the boys had headed outside to get the grill set up and stuff.
I’m wearing a sexy black bikini, with bling rhinestone accents to the straps and in the centre of the top. It’s a thong bottom with the same bling buckles on the side. I have a green smoky shadow on, an ombre pinky nude dark lip and black nails. I look fucking fine.
“You and Royce better not sneak away,” Kataleya says as she steps into the kitchen, giving me a small smile.
“No promises,” I say with a smirk.
She’s looking gorgeous too in a teal one-strap swimsuit that hugs her sexy curves. There’s a sequined strip around her waist and she’s wearing a leaf print matching sarong on top.
Her hair is open, and she’s wearing subtle shimmery make-up, small gold hoop earrings. and just like me and Zu, she’s got her nails done.
My gaze falls to the necklace that she always wears around her neck before I look up at her.
Little Boy Hook must be a big ass hook now… She’ll leave soon… This trip is important for us all because she plans to make that trip once the holidays are over. 3
She smiles at me before Azura takes one last look at herself before she turns. “Alright, I’m ready.”
We head out together, Kataleya happy and comfortable since it is only our own men out there. She leads the way out with the drink tray.
I step into the back garden of the villa, appreciating the purple-pink lights, the smell of the food cooking and the desserts.
But immediately my gaze falls on my man, who is wearing white swimming shorts, his hair open. He’s at the grill, but the moment I step out, his attention falls on me.
His eyes blaze blue as they drink me up. Azura’s already in Leo’s arms. He and Dante are in swimming trunks, too.
‘Like what you see?’ I ask as I saunter over to Royce. He swallows as he closes the last few steps between us and tugs me into his arms.
‘I always do… you look beyond sexy…’ he replies through the mind link. His voice sounds. possessive and rough before he grips the back of my neck and kisses me. His tongue plays with mine, his arm tightening around me, his hand resting on my ass.
‘Mmm, that’s it…’ I murmur through the link, my core clenching. I can feel his dick against my stomach, and we all know I love playing with my favourite sword. 1
He forces himself back and I can’t help but smirk, knowing he’s getting turned on. Leo and Azura have just parted too, and I look over at Dante and Kataleya, who are making the burgers.
“Finally, you guys are done,” Dante says as he glances up. He’s wearing his shades, a smirk on his lips.
“Not feeling left out, are you?” I counter.
“Not at all. I enjoy the calmness in my life.
without a psychotic female.” 6
“We aren’t psychos.” Azura growls before she tilts her head. “Actually, yeah whatever, we are and proud to be.” 2
“Besides, not every girl is the same, Dante.” Kataleya reasons with a smile.
“Yeah, Dante.” Azura chirps in as she tries to sneak up on him.
The moment she pounces, trying to jump on his back, he instantly crouches down, grabbing her elbows and tossing her over his head, sending, her flying into the pool. 4
Leo snickers, as water splashes everywhere and Royce flicks his finger, stopping the water from drenching the food.
“Dante!” Azura shouts.
“I didn’t actually do anything. It was all you.” Dante responds as he tosses an olive up and catches it in his mouth.
I snicker as Royce pulls me close as he goes back to flipping the meat on the grill and Azura climbs out of the water.
“What you snickering at?” She growls at Leo.
“I’m not sure. I think it was the crazy psycho who just ended up in the water.” He replies mockingly. 1
“Listen to me, Blue Eyes, who you calling psycho-” he cuts her off by yanking her close, wrapping his arms around her and kissing her hard. After a few moments, he pulls away, looking into her eyes, as she runs her fingers. along his chains.
“Regardless of that shit… You’re my psycho.”
He whispers huskily. 1
He sure knows how to calm our Westwood Devil.
I lean into Royce, resting my head on his muscular shoulder, and look up at him. Without any heels, our height difference is more prominent, and I can’t help but admire his chiselled jaw from this angle.
His scent is like a drug, one that calms and soothes me.
The contentment and happiness I feel in my life are immeasurable, and that shit is because of him.
I never thought I’d have this in my life, nor did I ever fucking feel I needed it until enter Reign, my fucking king who brought my entire fucking world alive.
