The Rogue King & His Lune (The Hybrid Series) Book 14

Chapter 3: Pain & Death

(Trigger Warning, SA)

Before the Civil War

Roman

I had built my army, and it was time to take them out; I sent a witch disguised as a refugee to weaken Aidan with a spell; if the others were linked, they would be able to weaken them with him. I need to separate them for now; I sent people to attack Kyan's Kingdom so he wouldn't be able to help Aidan, and I did the same to Drax's mate's pack, so he would be more inclined to help Ryker and Lora. Toffe should be with Sophie, and the men are on their way there as well; Elijah's vampires will be attacked as well as the Fae Kingdom to distract everyone so I can take out Aidan. I walked over to my condo after receiving a notification about the cargo there; I saw a young Bear, and I smiled; this would stick it to King Barron. He never even missed her, as my men waited to see what my next move was.

I was pounding into a Bear Shifter as she was bent over on my bed in my secret condo; she will be one of the whores, when I'm done, my men can have their way with her. She was a young virgin, we kidnapped her last night from the Bear Kingdom; she hasn't shifted yet, probably young, but her p***y is tight. I drowned out her screams and pleadings to stop, "f**k, she was tight," I thought, and I held her hip, thrusting harder, trying to reach my climax. Her legs shook, so I choked her and then turned her around; she was a crying mess, her eyes red and full of hate. I pulled her to the center of the bed and forced myself on her again until I reached my climax and then ordered my men to take turns so she could work the w***e house after the war. I left the room as the screams got louder and went home to see my wife and son; tomorrow will be the end of the Supreme Three.

Esmerelda put our son to bed, and I rubbed her baby bump; she was pregnant with our daughter, and I kissed her lips, and she pulled back and said, "You stink of sex." I felt her anger, but I pulled her to me and said, "It was a future slave, I was just testing the merchandise," and she said, "Then take a shower, I don't want to smell s*x if it's not us. " I slapped her firm ass and did as she asked, we lay in bed thinking about being the powerful rulers we are meant to be. Emsi was worried and asked, "What if you die in the war?" I looked at her and said, "Then you continue my vision, build it for our son and bring those assholes down for good," kissing her soft lips. She promised me she would, and we cuddled together, falling asleep until the sun came up, and then it was time for the war and our future.

Day of the Civil War

After I was standing in front of Aidan, I felt my leg break as I saw Drax next to me, he kicked me in the knee and said, "That's for spitting in my face," before smirking, circling me and Aidan. I knelt with one leg as the other one was broken, and I saw the marks on Aidan's and Drax's heads glowing, showing the marks of the Supreme Three. I said, "Just two of you now," laughing as my leg started to heal. Ty got up and said, "You just slow me down for about two minutes," before spitting the bullet out of his mouth at me with so much force that it shot me in the arm. I screamed as it was laced with vervain and silver, "f**k, that s**t hurts," I yelled; I saw his mark glow on his head as well, watching his wounds heal at this point, the fighting had stopped, and the rogues were surrounded by magic, and then I realized there was a magic circle around us.

Drax said, "No one gets in and no one gets out," before smiling at me. Aidan just looked at me and said, "Why did you do it, Roman? We trusted you and loved you like a brother." I didn't know what to say; I had betrayed all of them, I wanted power, I wanted what my father had promised me before he died. I was furious that Aidan had the means to spare his life but didn't; I started to laugh and asked, "Why not? I deserved to be King, not you," and felt a punch to my gut, making me kneel, Toffe said, "Kneel to your King b***h," and that didn't end well for me, but I knew it was my end anyway, I wanted to go out with a bang. I didn't beg him for mercy because you could see it in my former friend's eyes; they were going to end me, and I had no one in my corner to back me, so I smiled. I looked at Michael and saw how vicious he could be; he was the silent brother, and I smiled.

My wolf was furious that we were surrounded and refused to submit defeat to Aidan and his lackeys; we would rather fight to the end. Looking at my dead witch next to me, I was ready for this fight; I looked Aidan in the eye and said, "Finish it," and he was ready. Cayden came forward and said, "Roman Barnaby, former Alpha King and the current Rogue King has been found guilty of attempted murder of Supreme Gamma Female, Addison Cloudwater, countless rapes and murders of your people and let's say war crimes, you have been found guilty and punishment is death, you will be executed in battle by the Supreme Alpha, Lycan King, Alpha of all Alphas, Aidan Stone." I looked at him and said, "You will be the one dying today," before I pulled a dagger from magic and stabbed Cayden in his side, then I charged at Aidan wanting to kill him.

Ty sealed the circle, so I couldn't escape as Michael and Drax healed Cayden, Aidan was dodging my hits, and he hit me in the stomach, forcing me back to the edge of the circle. I saw that Ty and Drax opened the link to all in the Kingdom watching the fight; I was losing a lot of blood as I slowly healed, but this fight was to the death, and my heart filled with rage; he couldn't win this. He looked at me as my heart rate was fading and I said, "Lora was such a good f**k," and Drax ripped my throat out as the blood spilled everywhere. Aidan changed back to his human form as he looked at me, and I knew this was it; Troy had died a few moments ago, I was weak, and my vampire went into the background. I finally felt remorseful; Aidan, Drax, and Ty were my best friends, and I loved Toffe like a son. I mind-linked him saying, "I'm sorry, Aidan," and I lay there, closing my eyes, seeing black.

Back at the Rogue Kingdom

Esmerelda

I was waiting for the outcome of the war, and I was nervous; I was feeling his pain through the bond, and I was worried, I was thinking about the power we would have when I felt the pain of my mate dying. I screamed in pain as I felt it when the bond snapped, my son started crying, feeling his dad die, and it forced me to miscarry our daughter. I sat there in a pool of blood numb, I was angry, I was furious, and I would get my revenge even if it took forever, the Rogue Queen would rise, but first, "I will find a way to kill all of you, one by one," I vowed, starting with Addison and her family. I made a promise to the man I love, and I will fulfill it; I need to recoup and call on who was left, most generals died in the war, and some men switched sides for asylum from my wraft, I will call my servants to get the doctor and to keep my miscarriage private until I recover.

Three Weeks after the War

I was ready to get everything in order, and I called on my loyalists; they had bent a knee to me after Roman, but it wasn't easy since they had never had a Queen running Rogueland. I had promised them that my son would take over eventually, and they agreed; I looked at the list of men we lost and said, "We need more men in our army for when I need them." I looked at Roman's former bodyguards and smiled; I walked over to them and said, "You are my guards now." I dismissed them, except Jerrod, and looked at him in the face as he kept his head straight and said, "Go to my bed chamber and remain there." He bowed and left, I smiled becasue he looks like he would give me a good f**k, something I will need going forward because I refused to mate anyone else who may try to steal my son's birthright.

Later, I saw Jerrod standing by the window looking out; I closed the door, and he turned to me, asking, "Why did you ask me here, Your Majesty?" I smiled and said, "I want you to be my lover, no one will know until I am ready to tell them and if you make me c*m, I will make you rich just by being loyal to me, now who else has your heart or stays in you bed?" He looked at me and asked, "Can I refuse, Your Majesty?" I smiled and said, "Yes, you can, but I don't think you want to," and he pulled me to his chest and planted a kiss on my lips. It felt good being kissed so passionately, and I pulled back, took my dress off, and he undressed; I loved seeing his toned body and the tattoo on his chest, it reminded me of a sacred pack. I will look into it at a later date, his c**k sprung free, and it was clean, pretty and huge, I bit my bottom lip, loving what I saw, and then he took my panties off before first burying his head between my legs, then his c**k and boy, he did not disappoint.

Geoff

I woke up to the good feeling of Roman and Axel being killed in the war; I wasn't there to see it because of my injuries, and I looked at my bandaged ribs and washed my face. A nurse walked in and said, "You can leave, the doctor has released you," and I nodded and asked, "Who runs Rogueland since Roman is dead?" She looked around and whispered, "Esmerelda took over, but no one wants her," I said, "f**k," folding my fist in anger which surprised her. She smiled and said, "You don't like her," and I said, "No, is it that obvious?" She said, "A general like yourself, I assume, don't care about those roaches; you seem trustworthy, so let me inform you, there is a rebellion, there are private meetings, I am part of it; if you are interested, call me at this number," and she wrote it down. I smile because maybe things are looking up for me to be part of something big; I will kill Esmeralda, even if it's the last thing I do. I close my eyes and say, "I will avenge you, Meri, take good care of our pup wherever you are."
