Vampires and werewolves have been at war for centuries. In an attempt to make peace, Alessandra, the vampire princess, is wed to the Alpha Emperor of the werewolves, Xavier. All her life, Alessandra has grown up learning that the werewolves are barbaric in nature, a far cry from the elegant vampires. What happens, though, when Alessandra realizes that this is far from the truth? Their relationship starts off rocky with misunderstandings about each other, but through time, a bond slowly builds as they encounter and overcome obstacles together as king and queen, alpha and luna, husband and wife! When a cult started by an ancient vampire attempts to sow discord between two kingdoms, can Alessandra and Xavier maintain peace between both races? Or will their kingdoms fall into war and ruin, dragging their budding love down with it? — [Excerpt] When the guards declared the groom's entrance, everyone's attention turned to the door. I felt a hammer on my chest. Here comes the barbarian, I thought. I was looking away, lowering my gaze. The man entered the wedding hall. I felt like my intestine would come out of my mouth. The sudden gulps of the guests were not going unnoticed in my ears. What caused the guests to respond like that? Was the man that hideous? I lost my zeal to look at him. With a heavy heart, I kept looking away until he stood in front of me. Slowly, I glanced at the man standing in front of me. My heart was pounding so hard that I felt like it would burst. I gasped. There was no way he was the alpha lord and the groom of tonight's wedding. The phenomenally handsome man from earlier was standing right in front of me. Up close, he was multiple times more attractive. Barbaric man? Who? He was radiating such royal energy that even the noblest vampires were intimidated when he entered. My husband-to-be.
Indeed Lady Evelyn was upset about my bonding with Xavier. However, there was something else bothering her.
"Lady Evelyn, is it because of what your butler did that you are keeping him out of sight today?" I asked. "When exactly are you planning to stop? You crossed all the limits this time. I only came here to warn you that you should not do something like this again. You will only end up hurting yourself like this," I said calmly.
Evelyn frowned at me and said, "Lady Alessandra, are you not here only to glorify your win over me? You snatched everything that once belonged to me. Now you have even separated my most loyal subject from me. What more do you want from me? Are you playing jokes on me right now?"
I tried to fathom if Lady Evelyn was trying to mislead me with her drama again. But her eyes were honest.
Lady Evelyn seemed to be in pain. And it was definitely not because of Xavier.
