Flower Queen
Page 22
Triena guessed there was enough products out there to keep them trading for a while before they’d turn on her. That was why she kept the Peacekeepers, but first she was going to screen them, with the help of Braklen and his newly developing skill with the Energy to make sure they were going to support her. Them. The new twelve.
She placed her hand on her belly. There was also something else. A potential growing inside of her, a little seed that she guessed could carry on the legacy they were building together. Triena looked at Braklen. He was uncomfortable in his new role, as if he wore clothing too big for him. But, he stood next to her, willing to step up to the challenge.
Braklen adjusted his crown. “I don’t know if I can get used to this.”
“You will,” answered Triena. She knew what Braklen meant. They’d been through a lot together, focused on the only goal of destroying the Queens. Now, with the old Queens gone, Triena realized this was really just the beginning. There was so much more to do.
Together. There was that word again. It sent shivers through Triena’s body. We can work together now. She enjoyed the fresh, vibrant energy vibrating between them. They’d found their peace with each other, worked out how they each fitted together in life and their future.
The door to the receiving chamber opened. The officers of the Peacekeepers marched in.
Triena held her head held and turned to Braklen. He smiled, adjusted the crown on his head and reached for her hand. His warmth calmed her. Together, we can do this.
He squeezed her hand. Yes, we can.
Together.

Kristie comes to the Royal Adelaide Show every year with the sheep. This year will she return with more than just prizes? Or will she steal the heart of a man as well, and snag the love of her life?
Kristie Johnson plans to run the family farm one day. As the only child, she lives with her parents and struggles to get them to see that she can make her own decisions and that she is a grown woman. Then, she meets Tully Row, a dancer performing at the show and she turns to him for a few days of fun. Instead she finds herself falling for him, especially when she finds out he’s a country boy himself.
The youngest of three sons, Tully was forced away from the farm he loved to the city to make his own living. He started dancing and was given a gig at the Royal Show. His family are at the show with the milking cattle and they spend more time arguing. He feels unsupported by them, and can’t get them see his performances. Kristie is a distraction, an enjoyable distraction at first, but then she steals his heart. Their shared lust turns into something deeper and more special between them.
Can both of them stand up to their families and follow their hearts to begin a relationship and their lives together?
