Harlan, Declan, and Blair come up to me when I hear Elijah’s screams rip through the room. My head snaps up to find him ahead leaning over someone. I run toward him dropping to the floor next to him to find Jolie passed out on the ground. Her skin is a sickly white, her chest rises but her breathing is coming out in shallow bursts. Elijah’s hovering over her screaming out, trying to get her to respond. But she lies there still. I freeze, my body clams up.
“Tie me to her, Dara. Let her take my energy,” Elijah pleads, shaking my shoulders. My eyes snap to his, I break out of my frozen state.
“Are you sure you want to do that?”
“Yes, hurry up we’re losing time.”
“Place your hand on her chest and close your eyes,” I order Elijah.
He gently places his hand over her chest. I take his other hand and reach over Jolie to grab hers. As soon as our hands touch my breath catches. She’s cold as ice, she’s used too much magic today bringing down the Slayers and with me breaking through the ground. She overdid it. This can’t be it. She needs to be awake; I need her. We need her.
My breathing slows, my magic right there awaiting my command. I recall Jolie teaching me this spell at one of our training sessions.
“You’ve got this, Dara,” I hear Blair whisper into my ear.
My magic trickles through my palms going into Elijah and I repeat the spell over in my head.
Transfer thee, take thee strength. Transfer thee, take thee power. Transfer thee, take thee power…
A cloud of magic pours out from me going into Elijah transferring into Jolie as I keep repeating the spell over and over again. How will I know when it’s time to stop? Will there be a feeling? I prayed that something will happen for me to realise. Pushing my thoughts aside I keep going trusting that I’ll know when to stop until I hear someone scream my name.
My hands drop and my eyes peel open to find Jolie awake, sitting up but she’s yelling, screaming out Elijah’s name. Her words are muffled, I can’t hear properly. Everything happens in slow motion, as I watch Jolie yelling over Elijah who now lies deadly straight on his back unmoving. She looks toward me saying something, but I can’t hear her my ears are ringing.
What the hell have I done?
Blood pours out from his nose and his eyes are rolling back. His body starts shaking and my heart breaks when he stops, and I see him take his final breath. Jolie falls apart. She jumps on him pushing her magic into his chest trying to bring him back. Moving up to join her we both try to bring him back but it’s too late he’s gone.
Jolie lets out a loud animal-like growl just as my ears pop.
“I’m so sorry, Jolie, I didn’t mean for this to happen. He wanted me to tie himself to you, to save you,” I say pulling her into me. She tries to pull back but then she falls apart crying on to my shoulder.
“Why did he have to do that,” she sobs, her voice breaking.
“Because he loves you, Jolie.”
We stay like this for minutes until Jolie pulls back wiping away her tears. She lifts up my chin looking me deep in the eyes.
“He’s not gone, not really. I feel him here with us, with our parents. We will make them proud, Dara, Silvia is now ours.”
Her words hit close to home and I can’t believe that James is really gone, and Silvia is now ours. No one will ever have to suffer again, not in this lifetime. As long as I’m ruling Silvia with my warriors, we will all live in peace.
Oliver leans over me offering his hand. He pulls me up and my warriors surround me. I look to each of them, we all look pretty beaten up. Cuts and bruises line our bodies, but we are now safe. No one else will have to be sacrificed.
“Ready to go and rule Silvia, my queen?” Harlan steps forward bowing in front of me, followed by the rest of my warriors. My heart rate picks up.
“Tsk, get up we rule together, as one,” I say raising my voice glancing at each one of my warriors. Jolie, Declan, Blair, Oliver, and Harlan smile joining me. We get out of the massive hole that’s now in my walk-in closet.
I move toward the double doors, opening them I move through the bedroom out into the courtyard. Stepping forward, I hear loud applause, looking down I find all the villagers smiling and applauding. My heart bursts at the sight. They are now safe, with us.
Jumping effortlessly over the boulders my feet land on the ground and I start running through the crowd not stopping until I’m a kilometre outside of the castle grounds. I look around and my eyes light up, falling to the ground my hands touch the lush green grass.
Birds sing, bright purple and blue flowers fill my eyes as far as I can see. I laugh, screaming to the sky in joy.
Silvia is back. My beautiful Silvia is back to its vibrant self.
My warriors join me, and we come together in a massive group hug.

Two months later
The sun flickers through my curtains, holding back a yawn I stretch out my arm hitting Declan in the head. Whoops. He groans, grabbing my wrist he pulls me over so I’m snug against him.
“That hurt, my queen.” His husky voice washes over me.
“Want me to make up for it?” My eyes light up as he pushes his hardness into my belly.
“You also kicked me in your sleep, I need some making up too,” Harlan whispers into my ear, bitting down on my earlobe.
He grinds into my back, his hand moving down my thigh. My body shivers, Declan lifts my chin my gaze meeting his.
“Stand up now. You’re wearing far too much,” Declan commands just as Harlan spanks my arse. I groan, jumping up on my bed. Lifting the bottom of my lace nighty, I slowly move it up my body, stopping just below my breasts.
Looking down, I find both Declan and Harlan watching me with hungry eyes, Harlan’s tongue slides out as he licks over his bottom lip. My thighs clench together. Oh my God. Declan’s hand moves up my leg slowly as I keep pulling my nighty up, the cool air touches my nipples just as Declan cups my pussy. He gently rubs his thumb over my clit through my underwear. My legs wobble but Harlan grabs my ankles holding me in place. Lifting my nighty over my head I let it drop landing over Harlan’s face. He chuckles, discarding it over the side of the bed. Declan’s thumb rubs over my clit back and forth. My knees buckle as I try to clench my legs together, I fall down to my hands and knees on the bed.
“Can’t handle my torture, babe?” Declan appears below me, moving my arms apart farther. I shrug, leaning down on my elbows caging him beneath me. My ass lifts into the air and I glance back at Harlan wiggling my ass in his face. He smirks, smacking me hard against my left cheek.
Turning back to Declan I lean down, our lips almost touching.
“I thought Declan ordered you to strip. What the fuck are these still doing on?” Harlan growls, lifting up my underwear he lets it go, so it bites into my skin.
“You better do something about it then, I’ve been a naughty girl,” I tease, finding Declan’s lips. I moan into his mouth as I feel Harlan rip my panties off. Harlan’s mouth finds my folds, his tongue flicking my clit back and forth. Fucking hell. My hips buck, Harlan holds me down and continues to torture me. But fuck me, it’s so good.
Declan finds my breast, his fingers flicking my nipple. Harlan places one then two fingers inside me moving them back and forth until he reaches my G-spot. My legs clench together, and I moan into Declan’s mouth, pulling back I take Declan’s bottom lip between my teeth. Looking into his eyes they are almost pitch-black; he looks primal as he growls out my name and my hand moves down his chest finding his underwear. He helps by wriggling them down. I scream out Harlan’s name, my legs start to wobble, and I let go. Harlan pulls his fingers out covering me with his mouth, lapping up all my juices. He pulls away giving me a hard smack to my arse.
I pull back leaning back on the balls of my feet, Harlan moves next to Declan. They both look up at me, Harlan’s eyes are on my breasts and Declan’s are on my dripping wet pussy. How th
e fuck did I get so lucky.
“Stand up, get off the bed then lean over the bed on your elbows. Arse in the air,” Harlan orders, biting his lip.
I do as he says jumping off the bed, my eyes meet his as I lean down on my elbows resting on the bed and my arse in the air. The boys share a look, Harlan winks at Declan. Declan army rolls off the bed coming up behind me. He moves back for a second; I hear his bottoms hit the floor then his back against me. His warm body pressed against mine. Harlan appears in front of me his mouth lifts into a smirk.
“You hungry?” he growls, removing his underwear. His cock springs free and my eyes light up. I lick my lips.
“Always.”
“Fuck you’re hot.”
Declan’s cock rubs against my pussy before he plunges into me, I fall forward right into Harlan’s cock which is now positioned in my face. I look up to him smiling, the fucker’s got skill.
Declan grinds into me hard and fast and I take Harlan in my mouth. Licking and scraping my teeth down his length, back and forth to the rhythm of Declan smashing into me from behind. My legs wobble and I let go just as Declan grunts and Harlan explodes into my mouth. I swallow every drop, pulling back letting him go with a pop. I fall down on to my chest, exhausted. Fucking hell, my warriors knew how to treat me like royalty.
The door flies open followed by laughter.
“Ooh, what do we have here? Am I missing out on some fun?” Oliver’s cheeky voice fills the room. I’m too tired to move so I stay where I am sprawled out on the bed my legs dangling over the edge. Oliver spanks my arse and I yelp.
“You better be ready for me later, vixen. I’ve got a fun game to play,” Oliver teases, placing his hands around my belly he lifts me up.
“Of course, can’t wear me down. You know this,” I say looking him up and down. He’s dressed in black lightweight running shorts and that’s it. His chest glistens with sweat over his muscles. I lick my lips in appreciation. Fuck, that’s hot.
“Come on, Dara, we need to get ready for the party.” Jolie walks in, she stops shielding her eyes with her hand.
“Fucking hell, warn a bitch before I walk into this fuckery.” She groans walking backward out of sight. I laugh, throwing Harlan his underwear.
She’s right though, we need to get ready for tonight’s party. It has been two months since we took back Silvia and tonight, we are celebrating just that. These past two months have been the happiest of my life. We took up residence in the castle. There were enough rooms here to fit my warriors, Kayla, and Alaric. It gave us all the privacy we needed to do as we pleased.
Kayla and Alaric lived within the castle in their own quarters—they needed the extra room since they would be adding to their family. That’s right Kayla’s six weeks pregnant and I’m going to be the best aunty ever. My heart warms at the thought of her bringing a life into our messed-up family. We will all welcome the new addition with open arms.
We no longer have to live in fear of what’s going to happen next, if we are going to make it through the day. We now took each day as it came, no stress, no worries in the world. We just made sure everyone in Silvia’s happy and everything ran smoothly.
I’m now Queen of Silvia along with my Kings and Queen, Jolie.
We may have lost some people along the way, but they are with us in spirit, they celebrate with us and will live on knowing that Silvia is now safe.
