• Their Princess to Take    Chapter Nine: Begins With a Kiss

  FinnOne of my gifts begins with a kiss.Actually, I don’t have to kiss someone to make them sleep, but it is more powerful, and dare I say romantic, and my kiss has gotten me out of more trouble and situations than I could ever count. She was fighting. I could see her struggling and losing. My heart sank. With the fire illuminating her features, I saw her wild blonde hair, profile, and could hear her voice. It was her. I remember the first time I met her years ago in my dreams. ***I stumbled into my room and heard the softest sound and saw a lump under my dark black sheets. There was no way my bed was crying, which only made me wonder who the hell would have dared come into my private chambers to hide. I could feel the anger flood me.I strode into the room, only to realize that something felt off. My body didn’t feel the same. Neither did my clothes. Before reaching the bed to snatch off the cov

• Their Princess to Take    Chapter Eight: We Have Rules for a Reason

  MarcusAbsolutely, none of this should have happened. We have rules for a reason. The bargain said in her seventeenth year, Aileen would have come with us. It’s not like any of us were excited about fighting for her as a wife, but it was expected.Instead, we are all here with her. My heart and soul was in the arms of my brother, as we all referred to each other. It nearly destroyed me a few nights ago when I told her goodbye, but there was hope I would find her.I was torn between my duty and my desire. In all of my centuries, I had never experienced that pull to another. One of us had to marry Aileen, and my father wanted it to be me. He said I was the best candidate to replace him as king.I had no idea that the woman I was in love with, in my dreams, was Aileen’s sister. She had been there the whole time, and I’d never noticed her. She had never been a clear sight, just a blur in the background when we looked in on Aileen

  TorrinIt was a chance of fate that we were on the Earthside of the portal. We had no intention of coming until the day Aileen would be coming back with us, but a seer secretly told Kieran that she could hear a Banshee wailing on the other side. Banshees constantly wail for humans. They pronounce a death is coming, and only those with the sight or another power can see or hear them on earth.We never hear them call for a human’s death. We seldomly hear them at all. For one, it is rare since the Fae are, for the most part, immortal, though we do enjoy slaughtering each other during battle. Secondly, during war, there is so much death that it comes out as one single constant noise. With the secret warning, the four of us decided to cross a little earlier than planned. After last night’s dream, I had my own plans, and I had a feeling my brothers did too. I had to get to my darling dream, Queen. Than

• Their Princess to Take    Chapter Six: Twisted Fairy Tale

  GwenThat was a twisted fairy tale. Who would tell someone a story about Faeries, Witches, and an unbreakable arranged marriage before bed? That was just mean. Aileen was overly dramatic again. I love my sister, but she was so serious all the time. I wish she would lighten up and let me in. I would keep her secrets. She thought she was so smooth, but I knew she had a boyfriend, a charming one. I saw him on her phone a while back, but I didn't say a word. I wanted her to tell meWait, she did tell me.I could feel the sun warming my skin. I wanted to roll away from it. Ouch. I pulled on my arm to shield my eyes from the light, but I couldn't move. I tried the

  AileenGwen finally finished packing, and we got in the car. She huffed as she put on her seatbelt. I should have tried putting a ward or some type of protection spell on the car before, but I didn’t have the time or energy. I am a young and inexperienced witch if that’s what you want to call it. My powers are from nature and have mostly to do with my emotions.Over the past few years, I’ve mostly channeled energy and learned to control my Feelings. It was amazing that once I knew magic was in me, it would burst out. Mostly I accidentally kept setting things on fire. Besides playing with fire, I could heal people. Not bring back to life from the brink of death, but minor aches, pains, and ailments. Healing and protecting went hand

• Their Princess to Take    Chapter Four: I'm Just a Girl Whose Fate Was Decided Long Ago

  Aileen "Gwen." No response, as my sister's large blue eyes stared into her closet, I feel like she has been staring for twenty minutes. She has a dazed expression and seems far away. "Guinevere. Listen. Mama and Daddy left, and I can feel that we have not much time, finish packing your bags. We have to leave.""We shouldn't." Her face is serious."What just happened. Where did you go, Gwen?""My closet. We should stay in tonight. I feel a storm is coming. Check the weather app. Don't you feel it in the air? Static and electricity."
