Omission: Part One

I'M A KING.
A PROTECTOR.
IRREVOCABLY HERS.

Since birth, I've been surrounded by the enemy-those who wish to destroy the essence of my kind's existence, but have failed to at every turn. For greed. Because of ignorance. And while I've vowed to drive a sword through their hearts and display their heads outside our royal grounds, I will never harm her.

A divine rule etched into the very magic that flows through my veins, even if she's the daughter of the man who murdered my parents. Even if her people aren't to be trusted.

Yet there's one truth I could never deny:

This lovely little doll is mine.

One look into her warm violet eyes, and my world stops. She's where I begin and now end-the prize at the end of my battles. Who I will kill for.

"Mate."
