The Vampire Kings Slave Mate

Chapter 42: Mary

Nikolai and Kade had been extremely busy since the day of my coronation. The only time I saw Nikolai was at bedtime but when I awoke he was always gone. Nikolai had told me they were preparing for the

Alphas’ Summit. Nikolai had sent a letter to every Alpha advising them that the location for the Alpha Summit was changing, now everyone would be meeting at the palace. Nikolai stated that he wanted all the leaders of the different supernatural races to meet his new Queen, and that he couldn’t afford to leave the castle, not so soon after the rouge attacks.

Yeah, that’s what the coup that the werewolves had started was now being called, a rouge attack.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) Alpha Ash claimed that not a single wolf from his pack would’ve attacked the King’s castle, and since there wasn’t concrete evidence to prove that it was a direct attack from Ash, Nikolai had labeled it a Rouge attack. As King, Nikolai could have condemned Alpha Ash to death the night the wolves had attacked, but Nikolai wanted to be a fair and just ruler. He wanted to let the other’s know that they could trust him, he wanted his subjects to follow him, not because they feared him, but because they knew he had their best interest in mine. If Nikolai had killed Alpha Ash that night it may have caused another war, which Nikolai was trying hard to avoid.

“I still think he should have killed him the night of Queen Mary’s coronation after he threatened her.” Dru stated.

The four of us, Draq, Dru, Nevaeh, and I were sitting in the kitchen discussing the upcoming summit over a cup of coffee and some fresh bagels.

“If he killed him right then and there, the others would have suspected that what Alpha Ash was claiming was true.” Replied a very annoyed Draq.

He and his twin brother had been discussing what to do with the Alpha non-stop. They both wanted to be the one who ended him. Not that I blamed either of them; they’d been tortured to near death under the instructions of the werewolf Alpha. Unfortunately for them, I had already claimed Ash’s life. His life would end by my hands and my hands alone. It was under his command that the human’s were treated like vermin, it was under his command that the humans were kidnapped, raped, beaten, and slaughtered. He saw humans as objects and not as living beings. As the Alpha of the humans, it was my responsibility to keep them safe, and the only way I could ensure their safety was by getting rid of their biggest threat.

“Earth to Mary!” Nevaeh called waving her hand in my face.

“Uh, sorry I was lost in thought, what’s up?” I asked looking around the table at my small group of trusted friends.

“I was just telling the guys that Kade had told me, that he and Nikolai were discussing a new law that they were planning on introducing to the Council members today at the summit and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what that law might be.” Nevaeh stated looking around the table at all of us.

“I’m not sure. Nikolai has been very tight lipped about the entire thing. He doesn’t want to let me

know what it is, just in case the council rejects it.” I reply, then I look to Draq and Dru, “You’re his advisors, when you’re not my personal guards, has he told you anything?”

The sensation was similar to what it felt like when Nikolai teleported us from one location to the next, but it wasn’t quiet the same. Even though it felt like the world was swirling around me, it
