Fallen Royals: A High School Bully Romance (Bad Boy Royals of Kingsbury Prep Book 5)

by Rachel Angel

  “Enough humbling yourself. It doesn’t become you. It doesn’t suit your personality. You’re a girl of fire and wind. That is unique to you, so that is one of your strengths.”

  “You have a lot of potential. Untapped,” she said, holding out my hand. “Lots of energy.”

  “Can you teach me to reach my potential?” I asked. “I’m a fighter so this isn’t just a hobby for me. It’s my living and who I am.”

  She smiled. “It is good you realize this already. Yes, you are a fighter. Not a quitter. And you seem honest. There is good chi coming from you. You will not abuse your power once you reach your potential.”

  “I hope not,” I said.

  “You have some power and wealth in your past. Even your present, yet you have not once used it in a dark and horrible way.” She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them, surprising me as she said, “Yes, Tempest, I will take you on as my student.”

  “How did you know my name?” I asked.

  The shop keeper laughed and said, “You’re famous. Plus, I knew of you earlier because of the kind of martial arts you practice. It is a small world amongst martial artists. I know of your teacher in San Francisco. His style is apparent in your training.”

  I blinked. “This meeting was meant to be.”

  “Call me Master Lee,” she said. “Doctor Dana Lee here in the shop. I’m a practicing Eastern medicine physician and pharmacist here too.”

  “Wow, so accomplished,” I said.

  “Nah, for me practicing medicine goes hand in hand with training in martial arts,” Master Lee said.

  “How did you end up on Arcadia?” I asked.

  “My family has been here for centuries,” she said. “We came over as pirates.”

  “Interesting!”

  “I’ll tell you about it over tea someday,” Master Lee said. “But for now. I think you might want to get going so you can use the medicine I gave you to treat your friends. And this jar here…take this once a day to boost your strength and energy. It’s bitter so take it with some honey or rock sugar in a drink. It’s an ancient and special concoction people like yourself have been drinking for centuries.”

  “Thank you,” I said and headed out the non-descript shop.

  I made my way to the tram taking me back up the mountain to Kingsbury Prep.

  From just meeting a sample of the people in town, I could tell the island was special. The people here were special, each with their own unique family histories.

  What could have set the ones who attacked the K3s and Ricky last night?

  Why was there a resentment towards the royals that created such a mob?

  Whatever it was, I needed to dispel it, break it down. After my dream of being the Kingmaker Violet, I knew I had a history and personal connection to the castle and to this island somehow besides being a Kingsbury.

  Now after meeting Master Lee, I was certain I was meant to be here.

  Chapter 10

  Tempest

  I rushed into Kaz’s huge house with my packages and headed to the kitchen where the new cook Camilla, a grandmotherly woman, was preparing a meal.

  “Can you make a nice chicken soup with these herbs?” I asked.

  “Sure, honey,” Camilla said. “Just let me know what you’d like to eat, and I’ll make it!”

  “Good,” I said. “This soup has some herbs that’ll help the blood circulate better and build new ones.”

  “Oh good,” Camilla said. “I was beginning to worry about those boys. They need to eat healthier. They’re still growing and after their injuries, they need to get better.”

  “I’ll help you plan their meals,” I said. “I think I know what they have to eat to get better, and I know what they like to eat, too.” I brought out the chocolate cake and the cupcakes. “These are for later, but for now. Soup first, then some of these, too.” I showed her a list of ingredients and recipes, and she nodded.

  While Camilla was preparing the meals for the guys, I went to check on each of them.

  First, I visited Ori, who was lying in the bed he slept in while staying over at Kaz’s. He was sleeping as I walked up to him and pulled down the covers, preparing to put the ointment I received from Master Lee on his gashes.

  I pulled down the covers, revealing a fully naked and hard Ori. I had to catch my breath seeing his beautiful body with its colorful tattoos of mountains, streams, and trees. His muscular and lean body with the amazing tattoo work was a work of art. He was lying on his back and I had to get to his shoulders to put on the ointment.

  There was the matter of turning him over so I could reach his back. I reached over to try to turn him over, but his arm went around me, pulling me down so my face was now on his bare chest. “So cold,” Ori shivered, still sleeping.

  I tried to pull the cover over him, but he adjusted me like a blanket over his body until I was completely flushed against him. And my lower half was lined up with his.

  I felt his hardness against my core. I was straddling him in this position. I could feel the heat of him on my skin.

  It was intoxicating being this close to Ori and not think of all the arousing times we spent making passionate love to each other. With my nose against his chest, I could smell his manly scent of musk and cinnamon. I wanted to lick him and taste him.

  “Tempest,” I heard him whispered my name.

  Was he dreaming about me or did he know I was on top of him?

  I looked up daring to see his face.

  He was staring down at me, his light blue eyes caressing my face. “What a nice surprise,” he said, smiling.

  “I was just trying to put ointment on you when you mistook me for a blanket and pulled me on top of you,” I blabbered.

  Ori’s lips curled up into a wicked grin. “I mistook you for a blanket? How would I do that? You’re nothing like a blanket. For one, blankets are flat, and you are definitely not flat.”

  I laughed. “Ori, you joker. Were you awake this entire time, but pretending to be asleep?”

  “Partly,” he said. “I was until I felt the covers come off me. You know, I’m a trained fighter. It’s hard for me to be completely sound asleep. I sleep lightly.” He pulled me up so he could look at me face to face. His light eyes stared into mine, reminding me how handsome he was with his full lips, high cheekbones, square jawline, and white hair. The White Night. His hand reached up to touch my face. “Tempest…I can’t believe I’m touching you right now. It’s been so long.” He pulled me in for a tight hug, wrapping his arms around me while kissing my cheeks, my nose, and finally my lips.

  I kissed him back, remembering how well my lips fit with his.

  “God, I missed you,” he said, kissing me more passionately. “I don’t ever want to hurt you again. I don’t want to be without you again.” We kissed for a while, not wanting to break away from each other.

  “Ori, I don’t ever want to take out my revenge on you again. Don’t ever make me punish you like that again.”

  He kept his eyes on mine. “Never.” Then he was kissing me like a man starving. “I swear to you, Tempest, you come first to me. I love the guys like brothers, but when it comes down to it, I’m so miserable without you. No brotherhood could take away that misery.” He kissed my eyelids, my cheeks, and my mouth again. “I’m so in love with you, it’s not even funny. I know you were behind the rumors about me taking substances for the fights. I should be angry at you for that. You ruined my fighting career, little girl. But somehow I’m not angry at you. I care more about how I can fix what I’ve done to you than my fighting career. I care more about getting you back into my life than anything else. You can do whatever to me, and I’ll still love you.”

  “Ori, you know what you and the guys did really gutted me,” I said, leaning into him.

  “I know, Tempest,” he said. “Biggest mistake of my life to go along with the bullying. I’m so sorry. I didn’t want to do it, but I was too much of a coward to step away from it.” He kissed my cheeks and sa
id, “I’ll make it up to you even if it takes the rest of my life, Tempest. Just tell me what I have to do.”

  “Ori…I had my revenge on you already. I’m not vengeful and cruel. I think you’ve learned your lesson, but I will let you know what I want from you eventually.”

  “Okay,” Ori said. “I promise you I’ll try my best to fulfill your wish.”

  “For now, I want you to get better. Turn around and let me put this on you.”

  He did, while surprising me with a flip of his own, pining me down on the bed while he moved on top of me. The air between us suddenly became so hot as I could feel him hard against me. “Oh Tempest,” he gulped. “God, I want you.”

  I kept staring into his eyes. “I want you too, Ori.” I closed my eyes and arched my back, getting closer to him.

  He took that as a sign to go ahead, and with a groan, he tore off the buttons of my blouse, pulled the front clasp of my bra apart, letting my full breast spill into his eager hands. His thumb was immediately rubbing my nipples until they pebbled, and his hot mouth was on them, licking them, sucking on them. His mouth made their way down from my breasts to my core where he feasted on me, devouring me like he couldn’t hold back.

  “God I missed your taste,” he groaned. “Tasting you is like eating ambrosia, Tempest. You’re exquisite.” He closed his eyes savoring each lick after deliberate lick. Each stroke brought me closer to climax until he plunged his fully aroused and thick dick into me, thrusting into me, riding me until we both screamed out our names as we came together.

  He brought his arms around me and held me so gently afterwards, caressing my face with his, and nuzzling his nose against mine. “I love you, Tempest,” he said. “More than anything. Now I know. I didn’t deserve you before as a spoiled royal brat prince. I was too arrogant to fully appreciate you. But now having been kicked down several notches by you, I know who’s really in charge.”

  I smiled. “Really?”

  “Really.”

  With that, I swiped open the jar of ointment and carefully spread it on each of Ori’s wounds. I got out of his bed and placed the lid back on top of the jar. “I’ll be back with food soon. Just go back to sleep and let the medicine work on you.”

  He smiled appreciatively at me. “You don’t have to take care of me like this, Tempest. I can get a nurse…”

  “No, I want to. This is the Tempest Treatment…for only the guys who deserve to be in my harem.” I smiled sweetly. “Guess you’re back in.”

  Ori’s face lit up with the biggest happiest smile. “Oh Tempest, that’s the best medicine I’ve ever taken.”

  Chapter 11

  Tempest

  I went looking for Ricky, wondering which room they would have stuck him in, knowing how they viewed him as the outsider, the commoner like me, and worse…the ordinary guy who stole me from them.

  Knowing they wouldn’t have given him a regular bedroom, I went to the room they had fixed up for my playroom, the California room, which the K3s had fixed up to look like the interior of the silver Gulfstream trailer I lived in with my little sister Lily.

  Bright California beach colors filled the room, along with picture postcards of the beach, sunsets, ice cream. Fun colors. Fun themes. I had loved that room, which was a birthday surprise for me from the K3s.

  I opened the door and was greeted with a hand grabbing my shirt, pulling me in and pinning me to the wall. Immediately, I fought back, grabbing the palm of the hand, and twisting the thumb so he would let go. Keeping a hold on the hand, I twisted it along with the arm to loop painfully behind my attacker, pushing it up until he was crying out, “Please let go. I give up.”

  “Ricky?” I cried out. “What the hell?”

  “I thought you were one of the guys or their servants,” he said.

  “Why would you be trying to fight them? Weren’t you all attacked by the townspeople together? Why are you on defensive with them?”

  “Well, they wanted to kidnap me before the stoning happened. To ask questions about you, I could only guess. The townspeople going down from Kingsbury back to their homes in town saw them and began calling names. The townspeople saw the K3s forcing me to go with them so that’s when the mob attack against Kingsbury started.”

  “Because they saw you being kidnapped by the K3s?” I asked.

  “Yes, that was why,” Ricky said.

  “So, did the K3s get to ask you anything?” I asked.

  “No, we were attacked by the townspeople before they can, but now I’ve been stuck with them all this time, even being moved to stay in this place.”

  “Kaz’s house,” I said. “And this room…it’s the room they fixed up for me as my birthday surprise. It was really sweet.”

  Ricky looked around. “They did all this for you? With their own hands?”

  “Yup, they know how much I value things when they make it themselves. They could have just snapped their fingers to get other people to do it, but instead, they did this for me.”

  Ricky blew a whistle. “They really did care for you. The details, the craftsmanship. Someone put a lot of love into building you your special little haven.”

  “Kaz, Ori, and Hunter,” I said. “That’s who. Stepping in here just reminded me of that.”

  Ricky put his arms around me then, pulling me close to him. He kissed me and said, “A lot of people love you, Tempest. It makes me feel more secure knowing you are so well-loved. I’m jealous of the K3s of course, but I’d rather they love you than hate you like before.”

  “So you’re so benevolent, aren’t you? Ready to share me with the Princes, are you?” I asked, putting my finger up against his hard chest.

  He pulled me close and nibbled on my ear, growling, “I’d rather have you all to myself. You know that, Tempest, don’t you or should I remind you?”

  He lifted me and gently placed me on the leather sectional in the middle of the room before kneeling down and running his hands up my inner thighs. His fingers reached underneath my panties to twirl and rub against my nub, driving me insane with need. “Oh Ricky, just fuck me now.”

  “Don’t you want more foreplay, honey?” he asked, licking his lips. “I want to eat you so badly.”

  “Oh, if you must,” I huffed.

  He bent down and as his hot wet tongue touched me, I jumped. His mouth was on me, licking me and biting me, pushing against me so I wanted so much more of him. “I want you in me now,” I panted.

  He stood up, unzipped his jeans, and let his massive dick out. He was by far the largest most well-endowed of all my guys. “Want this?” he asked.

  “What do you think?” I fired back.

  “Yes?”

  “Damn yes,” I moaned in frustration as his fingers built me up to near climax.

  He rammed into me, sending me into a frenzy, and kept thrusting until he was exploding with me.

  I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him, still trying to catch my breath. “I can’t get enough of your hidden talents,” I said.

  He kissed me hungrily and said, “I can’t get enough of you.” He put his forehead against mine after he pulled slightly back and said, “Want me to stay here with you or do you want me to go back into town. I’ve recovered enough where I think I can walk back. Still sore, but…”

  “Stay,” I said. “You’re getting the Tempest Treatment,” I started rubbing his cuts and bruises with the ointment. “You’re part of my harem after all.”

  Chapter 12

  Tempest

  I walked into the room Hunter always stayed in when he was at Kaz’s. I didn’t find him in bed, and was about to walk out of his room, when a warm hand touched my arm.

  I turned around to find Hunter standing right next to me, his hair wet, and his body clad only with a towel around his waist. “Hunter,” I said breathlessly. I could feel the warmth of his freshly-showered body heating me up. Even with gashes on his shoulders and back, he was one of the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen. His chocolate brown eyes devoured m
e from head to toe.

  “Tempest,” he barely whispered. He was staring at me like he couldn’t believe his eyes. “What are you doing here?”

  “I came to put some ointment on you, to take care of you,” I said, barely above a whisper. I swallowed. Hunter was like sex on legs. I couldn’t think as he grabbed my waist and pulled me into him in a tight embrace.

  “How very sweet of you, Tempest,” he said, resting his chin on top of my head. “But I have to get going.”
