Revenge On The Moon Goddess ~ Sapphire Lake Series

My name is Braya Ryan Wyatt, I am a hybrid. My father is a Lycan and the King of Shifters, and my mother is the Vampire Queen in the human realm. I'm the eldest of the triplets, so I will be the next queen. I have a brother Beau Scott was born after me, and last but not least, my sister Brier Michaela. We will turn 18 in a few days. My parents are throwing a ball for our birthday party. Personally, I just rather have a small get-together, but being royalty, we don't really get that choice. At the age of 18, we get to find our mates or beloved so everyone wants to be invited from Alpha's of Werewolf packs, Dragon's from Thunders, Vampire's from Covens along with some Fae and other supernatural. My Lycan Azzlynn is very excited about this whole thing. She wants her other half right this second. Guess she will have to wait just a little longer. Our Royal Pack is located in Southern Oregon. There are plenty of trees, lakes, and rivers around that we can let our Lycan out to run. To protect our pack and coven, we had a witch put a spell on our land, so it just looks like a bunch of trees. If hikers happen to come across it, they will just go up the mountain and down the other side, not suspecting they've found a pack and coven. People wouldn't believe them anyway. For humans, we are just made up stories that they've made movies out of and aren't even remotely true. I'm sitting in my room when my mother Lynnlee bursts in like a hurricane. Sometimes, she acts like a 3 year old who had gotten into sugar for the first time. She hands me a list of RSVPs for the party, and she knows I'm only interested to see if one name is on the list. I scan over the 4 page list, and at the very bottom is the one name I wanted to see. Alpha Beckett Harrison. He has been my crush since I was 5 years old, and I'm praying to the Moon Goddess that he is my other half of my soul. "You did that on purpose, didn't you, Momma?" I said. She just laughs and shrugs her shoulders and once again leaves like the hurricane she came into my room with. I fall onto my bed, squealing that Beckett will be there. He is already 18 and has taken over his werewolf pack, the Silver Moon. Now I really need to look my best for the ball. We have dress designers coming to the castle to design my and my sisters dresses. We could go out into the human town and get a prom type dress, but unfortunately, with being blessed with a bigger chest and a very tiny waistline, it doesn't work for my sister and I. Brier and I decided to have our dresses designed separately, so it will be a complete surprise to what the other one is wearing. Beau has it easy. He just has to have a tux and will take 2 minutes to do his hair with some hair products, and he's done. Lucky him! Brydjet is who is designing my dress for the ball. I picked out a sapphire color that has silver threading in the lace as a nod to Beckett. My dress has just one sleeve and a thin strap on the other side. It has 2 slits on either side of my legs, so when I walk, you can see my legs. I picked silver sandals with kitten heels because I'm already tall and don't need the height with stiletto heels. Let's be honest those had to be designed by a man because no female would have designed those, especially a human. They'd fall and break their necks. If I could get away with wearing my vans, I'd do it in a heartbeat. My momma, on the other hand, would kick me in the ass, and my daddy would just laugh since he has a massive collection of van tennis shoes. I'm now looking up hair styles to look the best for my dress style when I hear a knock on my bedroom door. I know it's Beau by his scent and how he knocks. He says it's his special knock. I open the door, flicking my wrist from my bed. I love having vampire gifts. Beau comes in and hands me what I assume is a birthday card and open it up, and the color drains from my face. Inside is a note saying YOU WILL BE MINE NO MATTER WHAT. I sniff the card, seeing if I can pick up any kind of scent, but there is none. Everyone has a scent, even humans, so I'm very confused and even more concerned. Beau knows automatically that there is a problem and mind links our parents and sister. I just sit there trying to calm Azzlynn down. She's screaming, " I won't mate with anyone who isn't the other part of our soul." Security will be super tight that night of the ball, so no one is dumb enough to try something then, but what happens after the ball is another story. This has to be a supernatural because no human would dare be so bold, and the card came to the castle, so they'd have to know it's even there in the first place. My parents and sister show up to my room, and without saying a word, I hand the card to my daddy Bentlee. His face turns red with anger, and you can see the vein in this forehead pulse. He starts yelling and speaking into mindlink to his team and grabs my momma's hand, and says, " Call your father right now. We need all the help we can get!" If my Grandpa Dracula is coming to help you know, this is a real threat. Well, so much for a fun ball. Maybe we should just cancel the whole thing I'm thinking to myself. Everyone just leaves, not saying a word. I know that Beau and Brier will be out training. That's what they do when they get upset. Goddess help those warriors because they will need it. Hours latter I'm still in the position on my bed just looking at the wall when a knock on my door can be heard. I flick my wrist, and the staff wheels in a cart. I forgot I hadn't been down to have lunch or dinner, so I guess my family thought I needed to eat something. Anna Dove says, " Your mother sent this up for you, and you need to meet her and your sister in the castle spa tomorrow morning to get ready for the ball. Your Grandparents have just arrived, and they are updating them on what's going on. Princess Braya, you'll be just fine, I just know it." I thanked her for her kind words. I ate my steak and special salad that I love. I took a very long shower, hoping it would help me enough to get a good night's sleep. I can't look like I have bags and dark circles under my eyes for the ball. I finally crawled into my bed with my fluffy soft cow printed blanket, and my worst nightmare came true. I tossed and turned all night long, not getting a wink of beauty sleep!
