Amara's POV

It's done it's finally over, no more having to worry about the Demon wolf throne. All these years I've been waiting to finally have the throne and I've got it now and even better with my mate. My mother would be so happy to see me with my mate. I stare at Ryker as he shouts orders to one of the new assassins, we were at the training of the new weres and were watching how they were progressing but this one particular assassin just kept failing at all his fights. 

It's been a full month since the take down of the old Demon wolf and I've never felt better. After the fight Ryker and I took my ex dad's body to hide in the pacific we chose the small island country of Fiji cause it had a huge spread of green and buried it in one of the forests there that was covered entirely by bushes. We also took that opportunity to complete our mating and Ryker marked my as we stayed at one of the hotels there for a two day trip for our selves before coming back to take the Demon throne together. So since we decided to rule together we performed the ceremony together by the end of it somehow the Demon wolf symbol imprinted on both our necks, located on the lower right cause our mate bites were on the left side of our necks. For the head of the old Demon wolf's body, we left that to Adrian to bury and he decided to go directly opposite and hid the head somewhere up Canada in the mountains. The only ones who know this information about the exact location of the body parts are just Ryker, Adrian and I and we're keeping it that way. 

"Again" Ryker growls out in annoyance as he walks back from the ring and stands beside me, he's growl pulls me out of my thoughts.

"Demon King and Queen" one of the top assassin's Eli comes to us rushing from out of no where.

"What is it Eli?" I ask as I stare at him blankly hoping inside it was news about the escapees.

"We still do not have news about the escapees but we've interrogated Ricky the  assassin that was left behind and he has given us information..." Eli stops and looks at me with a worried expression.

"Well what is it?" I ask back annoyed from being impatient as Ryker gives Eli a hard glare for taking his time.

"It's worse than we thought" Eli stated

"Spit it out mutt" Ryker growls making Eli look down in submission over Ryker's dominance.

"They are going after him, they know where he's head is" Eli states in one go.

Ryker gives out a loud growl and I shake in rage. This is too fast, it's just been a month and they really want to continue with this. When I get my hands on those who betrayed us they will pay. So the assassins that escaped were the ones that had pledged their allegiance to the old Demon wolf. They were spared and were given another chance but we found out they were plotting something and imprisoned all of them to torture them making them die slowly that was until somehow some of them escaped which isn't surprising cause I taught them. Anyways one of them couldn't escape due to the amount of wolfsbane in his system so he was left behind and this wolf just ratted his group out on their plans and it's not good. They want to resurrect the old Demon wolf my so called 'ex' father.....

"Get Adrian now! Tell him to call a meeting and to get all the top assassins to meet us in the throne room" I state to Eli sternly and turn to meet Ryker's eyes. 

"Dismiss" Ryker claps his hands twice before he calls out to the new assassins while the were still in the middle of a fight. They stopped fighting and turned to bow to us before they all walked away followed by their instructor.

"I knew this was going to happen.... I had a feeling, I just didn't know it was going to be this soon" I turn towards Ryker.

"Everything will be alright Amara. You don't have to worry about anything. We can do this together we've done it before and we can do it again even if he comes back a thousand times I'll take him down with you a thousand times more" Ryker says as he grabs a hold of my hands and stares into my eyes with nothing but promise shinning in them.

"Ryker it's not that. It's just sometimes I'm tired, I'm tired of having to worry about things that worth my time. have you ever thought of leaving this life? Just the two of us?" I stare back at him as I watch him process my words slowly

"You wanna leave this life?" Ryker asks with an arched eyebrow

"That's the thing. I want to but I don't know, that's all my mother wanted for me." I say looking away thinking of my kind hearted mother, all she ever wanted was for me to be safe and happy. 

"I wish it were that simple my love" Ryker giving me a kiss on my forehead while he gives me a look of no hope on that topic.

"But for now we have your father's assassins to hunt down" He says as he pulls my hand and starts walking towards the castle.

"Yes and there will be no mercy" I smirk thinking for tearing the limbs of the assassins who wish to betray us, they will regret this I thought as I walk hand in hand with my mate. 

A promise, a promise I thought I would be able to keep. But that's the sacrifice you have to pay when you're born into a world like mine. Promises aren't meant to be kept all the time and leaving the assassins' business is just a dream. You either live this life or you die in this life you can never leave. It runs in your veins like blood and no one can drain it out.

*The End*
