“We talked about this,” she sighed, “it’s too risky now.First, we need to weed out all the traitors and win that war once and for all.”

“I know,” he chuckled, “but don’t blame a man for trying.”

“AS soon as we are ready, I will give you as many pups as you like, ” Riannon grinned at him.

“Boys, girls, strong, beautiful and smart like them…”

“Mummy,” he interjected before she had a chance to say anything.

“No, worries, Ria, you only motivate me to deal with our enemies faster.So that I could have you all to myself.”

“I want this too,” she stopped, and he pulled her into a warm hug, kissing the tip of her head.

“I don’t like how they turned everything upside down with Zack’s absence.They say that we had something to do with it.And something tells me that when we find

Zack, we find the culprit as well.The one who was commanding the rival army during the last battle.” she nodded.

“We’ll get them all, Ria.I swear to you.”

“I am worried for Bridgit as well,” she confessed all of a sudden.

“when she left, we were in contact.But she doesn’t reply to my messages anymore.I don’t know where she is and if she is okay.”

“That one is harder” her mate brushed circles with his hand over her back to try and reassure her.

“Bridgit is a werebear and none of them is currently on our side.”

“I know,” Riannon agreed, “but I can’t help but worry.”

“We will figure something out,” he assured her and pulled her hand so that she followed him into their new home.

“One day all our friends and family will meet here, and we will have a feast.”

“Sounds promising,” she let out a little laugh when he lifted her in his arms right before the doors.

“That is a promise,” the lycan king chuckled.

“Everyone who is dear to us will be here.Savvy too.I will even tolerate her future husband.”

“Just behave at their wedding,” Riannon snorted, knowing that this subject was still painful for her mate.

He missed his little sister a lot, even despite her calling him almost every day.

“l am sure that we will get the invitation really soon.”

“I am surprised it’s not here already,”

Gideon rolled his eyes.

“He wanted to marry her for so long.”

“You wanted to marry me too, but it still took us some time to prepare for the wedding and the coronation.” Remembered very well how they were only allowed a little private ceremony with their friends and family before the big coronation and a huge reception, where they were talking and shaking hands for most of the day.

But Gideon knew that he would never forget how beautiful his bride looked back then in her elegant sparkling champagne dress.

How her eyes sparkled and how the wind was blowing strands of her hair.

He would never forget what he told her before the priestess of the Moon

Goddess on that day, when they were standing in the inner garden of his palace, holding hands and surrounded only by their beloved, who were their witnesses.

***

“Riannon, I swear to love you and to protect you with my life as the most precious thing that was given to me by the higher beings.But I also swear to treat you as my equal, never less.Because The Moon Goddess knows it, you deserve this and so much more.You are my heartbeat, you are every breath I take, you are the blood in my veins and the essence of my existence.And I can’t imagine my life now without you.I tried it and I am never getting back to that.Today I take you as my wife, my Luna, my Queen and my equal partner, ready to spend all my life with you.Will you accept me?”

“Yes,” she smiled with tears glistening in her eyes.

“Gideon, I swear to love you and stay with you until the day I die.And possibly even after that.”

She gave him a little smile at these words, and he everything that you do.I have never loved anyone the way / love you and no one ever gave me what you give to me every day.Now I know that this is how it should be.I promise you my love, my devotion, my loyalty, my respect.I promise to hold your hand even if the whole world is against us.I love you so much…and I take you as my husband, my King, my equal partner and the love of my life.Will you accept me?”

“Yes,” he nodded and even before the priestess could announce it, he pulled her into his arms and covered her lips with his.

They explored the new house together, paying special attention to the training grounds, where Gideon planned to train his wife.

Her abilities were still not known to them.

She was getting faster and stronger every day and could match any lycan that he knew.

Even himself.

But something was telling him that this wasn’t the limit.

Riannon knew that too.

Too often Onyx was disappearing again, and she was aware that her wolf was spending time with none other than the Moon Goddess herself.

When she was asking her about what was going on there, Onyx was giving her the most vague answers, saying that she would tell her everything when the time came.

However, her dreams were getting more and more realistic.

Disturbing even.

For in her dreams she saw a battle.

A battle that hadn’t happened yet…loved every room that she planned personally with their architect.

But she appreciated the bedroom the most.

Riannon was exhausted but she never wanted it to stop.

Gideon was trailing his tongue over her inner thigh again, which made his intentions about what he was about to do next very clear.

He wanted more.

More of her, more of their life as husband and wife, as king and queen, more of the happiness that they felt when they were together.

Ria felt how her strength was replenished with every kiss he left on her body, every touch, every tease.

They were two halves of the same whole and, as mates, they were giving each other strength.

She laced her fingers into his hair to give him a push in the right direction when a sudden urge to empty her stomach overwhelmed everything else that she felt.

“Wait!” she muttered and pushed her confused husband away to run to the bathroom.

“Ria, what’s wrong?” he was worried now, and he was even more worried when he heard her throwing up.

His phone ranged and he recognised Savvy’s personal ringtone.

“I am fine!”

Riannon let out an apologetic sound and stood up to clean herself.She had no idea what had just happened.She had a stomach of steel and never…

A sudden thought occurred to her, and she started to try and remember when was the last time she had her period.

She was so her hand instinctively rubbing her belly.

“He did what to my sister?!”

Gideon growled loudly and Riannon sighed.

Apparently, nothing was going according to their plans…
