The Blood Moon Curse

Chapter 11

It was nightfall when Minerva and her extra witches arrived at the palace. She brought a total of four extra witches and two warlocks with her, to stay with us. The kids had been fed, bathed and put to bed. So, it was only Robert, Quinn, Amelia, and I, meeting with Minerva and the new witches. Robert stepped forwards, as they all piled out of the cars, and welcomed, “Welcome everyone, for those of you that are staying with us, our maids will show you to some rooms for you to stay in. They are rooms near Myles, Harper, and Hazel’s rooms. If you would like anything to eat or drink, please ask the maids and they will bring it to your rooms. Minerva, if you would follow us into my office, we can discuss what you have found.”

“Yes, that would be for the best. But first introductions. These are Felix, Hugo, Catalina, Octavia, Meredith, and Gloria,” Minerva nodded, as each of them waved when she spoke their names.

“It is a pleasure to meet you all, the maids here will show you to your rooms so you can rest for the night,” I smiled graciously at them.

We made our way up to Robert’s office, while the maids attended to the new witches and their bags. There was a strange silence amongst us all. Upon arriving at Robert’s office, we all took seats around his desk, before Robert spoke, “So, what have you found out, Minerva?”

“I found out a lot actually. That monument you saw them constructing in the meadow just past your border with their land, they need it, to be able to perform the spell. This curse only ever happens once, so the spell can only work on his third birthday. After that, it can never be performed again. So, this is a once in eternity opportunity for them, which means they will pull out all the weapons in their arsenal to get your son. As long as we can keep him safe for this Blood Moon, he will be safe. But the bad news is, if they do get him, and perform the spell. Then, not only will your son die, but millions of supernatural creatures will just cease to exist, or those that are lucky enough to survive will be enslaved. I know they will change the outcome of the war, so that they will win. The outcome will result in the destruction of the human world as well as the supernatural world,” Minerva explained, which she found out.

“This is not good news at all,” Quinn whispered under his breath, but loud enough for us to hear.

“This monument, what if we send in a strike team to disturb the construction of it? Could it delay them long enough,” I suggested.

“It could work but there are numerous problems with executing a plan like that,” Minerva replied.

Robert nodded, “I agree that there would be numerous problems, it is highly likely that this would be a suicide mission. Think of how many dark witches have been seen heading to that meadow, and how many more are pouring into the meadow by the hour.”

“It would be heavily guarded. Even if, by some miracle, we were able to get close, how would we be able to destroy it? What is it even made of,” Quinn added.

“From what I have found out about the monument, it has to be made of wood and by hand. So it wouldn’t be difficult to destroy it, but it would be just as easy to rebuild it.”

“What about a spell? Could you do a spell that would cause damage to it,” I asked.

“That is a good idea, the only spell that I can think of that could cause significant damage to their monument.”

“What is the spell? What would it do? And, what would you need to do it,” Robert questioned.

“The spell would cause an earthquake, but I have one problem,” Minerva took what I can only imagine was a dramatic pause, that or she was thinking about what she needed or about the problem.

“Well,” Robert pushed.

“I need earth from the meadow, so that the earthquake is directed there by the spell, or it would just cause an earthquake right where we sit,” she explained the problem.

Robert rubbed his face with his hands, another possible way of causing disruption to their plans requires us to cross the border, so yes, I can understand his frustration. If it is the only way it can be done, then we need to do it. We need to do anything we can to destroy or delay their plans. If we can, we will be able to protect our son. I suddenly had a thought.

“Is there a spell that can make you invisible temporarily,” I asked.

Minerva nodded, “Yes! Why? What are you thinking?”

“What if one Lycan and one witch go to the meadow, using that invisibility spell, the Lycan can be in beast form and carry the witch at a great speed to collect the soil you need to do the spell,” I explained my idea.

“It might just work,” Minerva approved of my idea.

“And which lycan do you suppose we send on this mission. That has a great risk of death if caught,” Robert retorted.

“I will do it,” Quinn offered.

I stood, shaking my head, as I spoke, “You will not do it, because I will.”

“You most certainly won’t,” Robert growled.

“One, I am immune to magic. Two, I am the fastest here, and I have powers,” I bit back.

“Exactly, you are immune to magic, the spell won’t work on you,” he asserted.

I looked at him, before looking at Minerva, and asking, “What about an extension charm, so anything the witch touches with her hands becomes invisible too?”

“Yes, that could work, because the magic is being used on a witch, not directly on you. We should try it out before you go to be sure. But, we will have to make sure that the witch keeps one hand on you at all times,” Minerva said.

Robert growled, “No, you are not going. You are my wife, my Queen, my mate, and mother to my children. I need to protect you, to keep you safe.”

“Robert, this isn’t about protecting me, it is about protecting our son. This could delay the dark witches, and if it works, it could delay them long enough for the Blood Moon to pass, which will not only keep our son safe, but will save our world and the human world.”

“Fine, you have to test that it works first before you go, and you must do it under the cover of night,” he grumbled.

I smiled, like he actually ever say no to me or stop me for that matter. I do love that he tries though, it just showed how much he loved and cared for me. It still turned me on a great deal, when he tried to be that protective over me. Now, we just needed to see which witch or warlock would join me on this mission.

“Who would do this kind of mission out of the good witches or warlocks,” Quinn asked.

“Harper is best at invisibility spells, and extension charms,” Minerva replied.

I nodded, “I will speak with her tomorrow morning, then hopefully we can start practicing, her holding on to me, and me being about to carry her. We also need to make sure she can gather earth with one hand still holding on to me.”

“Minerva, it is getting late, do you wish to stay with us for the night, or will you return home,” Robert inquired.

“If I may stay the night, that would be great, but my driver will need a place to sleep as well.”

“I will have a maid show him to a room.”

Quinn and Amelia rose from their seats, as Amelia said, “We can show you to your room, Minerva, before we ourselves head to bed.”

I smiled at Amelia, she was making it so that Robert and I could be alone. We gave each other slight nods. Minerva smiled, “That will be wonderful. Goodnight King Robert, Queen Violet.”

“Goodnight Minerva, thank you for bringing us that new information you found,” I replied to her.

Once they had left the room, I turned to Robert, and smiled, “Are you alright?”

“I would be much better if the woman I loved didn’t challenge me in front of people.”

“I am also your Queen. I must challenge you to put you on the right path. Besides, you were the only one against the plan.”

Robert pulled me in front of him. I was now, leaning on the desk facing him, as he sat in his desk chair. Because of our height difference, we were the same height when he was sitting down in that chair. He buried his head in my neck, inhaling my scent, as he placed gentle kisses on my neck and mark. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, as he continued.

“If you keep being bossy, then I will just have to show you how much more dominant I can be,” he growled lustfully in my ear, just before his canines elongated and he bit down on my marking spot.

It sent me into an orgasm, all on its own. I immediately felt myself getting very wet between my legs, which he must have known because he dropped to his knees, lifting my dress up and ripping off my lace thong. He did it so quickly after my first orgasm, that I gasped in surprise, as he plunged his tongue inside me, lapping up my juices. Moans came flowing out of me at that point. I knew he was going to bring me right to the edge. When he did bring me right to the edge, he pulled away as I heard him undo his zipper, before slamming every inch of himself inside me. His thrusts were fast and hard, which brought us both very quickly to our climaxes. My walls clenched around his long thick shaft, as he released his seed within me, which left us both screaming each others names.

As we came down from our highs, Robert pulled out of me and sorted himself out, while I sorted myself out. I smirked, “You know if you keep getting like that after I boss you about, I might just have to do it more often.”

He gripped my waist, and pulled my body straight against his, before he said, “Everything you do turns me on, and trust me, in the past five years it has just gotten worse.”

“Good, I am glad. Now, why don’t we go get to bed? We have a lot to do tomorrow. We will need the distance between the palace and the meadow where they are constructing that monument,” I replied.

“Why would you need to go the distance?”

“To make sure I can run as fast as I can that distance with a witch on my back, and we need to make sure the spell lasts that long. So, we will do practice runs on our packland tomorrow, in the dense part of the woods.”

“Good idea. Right, let’s make sure you get some sleep.”

Robert wrapped his arm around me, as he led me out of his office and to our bedroom. Once there, we both stripped out of our clothes, Robert remained in just his boxers, while I slipped into one of my silk chemises. We both climbed into bed, Robert laid on his back, pulling me closer, so I laid my head down on his bare chest. Robert placed a gentle kiss on my forehead, before closing his eyes and falling asleep. It always amazed me how quickly he could fall asleep. With the sound of his heart beating, I was able to fall asleep quite quickly too. Sometimes I wished things would stay like this forever, no more battles or threats to my family. I knew that wouldn’t happen. One can dream though.
