The War of Two Queens (Blood And Ash, #4)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

“Come on, Isbitch,”

OMG his nicknames!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

He hesitated, his head cocking to the side. “If you only knew how many times I’ve heard that,”

I hate this fucker with every fiber of my being

My voice lowered, became softer and colder…and smoky. “Not a single thing. It’s horrifying, the inevitability of it. The knowledge that if you still have a soul, it is surely bound for only one place. Deep down, you must be so afraid.”

Vicious!!! I LOVE ITTTTT!

There was a pause. “You sound a lot like…her.”

I miss her!!!!!!!

His voice roughened, and he dropped his forehead to mine. “He was and still is a part of me.”

Awwwww!!!! Feeeeeellllssssss!!

And I held myself still until I was confident that I wouldn’t do something rash and very unbecoming of a Queen. Like stab him in the face.

Lolol! Fuck that… it’s very becoming! lol

“I don’t give a damn about leadership right now. It’s you that I’m concerned about,” Valyn said, and my head jerked toward him. “You are the Queen, but you are also my daughter-in-law.”

Awwwww feeeelssss!!!

“No, she didn’t know me.” He folded the gauze, covering the wound. “Or at least that’s what she remembers.”

Wait what???

Another name was yelled. A third daughter. A second son. Siblings. Names were shouted to the needled branches, echoing around us as Emil’s and Kieran’s expressions hardened with each name yelled. There were so many names that they became a chorus of heartbreak and hope, and when the last one was cried out, my heart had withered.

Awwwww feeeellllssss 😭😭 all the babies!

“That wasn’t exactly what I’d had in mind when I said that, but Reaver’s…going to be Reaver.”

Yea he is lololol

“Seventy-one,” Kieran stated. “There are seventy-one that are…”

Woooooowwwwwww

“Why does the Consort sleep so deeply when Nyktos doesn’t?” Reaver looked down at his apple, not speaking for several long moments. “It’s the only way to stop her.”

Cause she’s bout that life and will end the world…..

“Um, it’s a book Perry found in the ship cabin you and Cas stayed in, actually.”

Lmfaoooooooo!!!! This book haunts her!! Hahaahahaha

“‘A first daughter, with blood full of fire, fated for the once-promised King. And the second daughter, with blood full of ash and ice, the other half of the future King. Together, they will remake the realms as they usher in the end. And so it will begin with the last Chosen blood spilled, the great conspirator birthed from the flesh and fire of the Primals will awaken as the Harbinger and the Bringer of Death and Destruction to the lands gifted by the gods. Beware, for the end will come from the west to destroy the east and lay waste to all which lies between,’”

The are gonna FUCK SHIT UPPPPPPP!!!!

“So nosy,” Kieran murmured.

LMFAOOOOOO!!!!!!

I zeroed in on her word choice. She didn’t say that I wouldn’t escape. Only that I wouldn’t get into the capital unnoticed. That was strange.

Is she helping???

Spinning around, I’d already grasped the dagger at his hip by the time he registered that I’d moved. I slammed the blade deep into his chest and into his heart. A flicker of shock widened his eyes as he looked down at the hilt of the dagger.

I fucking love how someone is ALWAYS stabbing this idiot!!

“I’m the first daughter,”

Wait…. First daughter???? Hmmmm

“Nope.” Kieran loomed over us, forcing his forearm under Casteel’s chin. “That’s a nope.”

Lololol

Kieran said nothing as he pulled away, and the strangest urge to reach out and stop him swept through me.

I need this SOOOOOOO bad!!!!!

I met him halfway. One or both of us staggered a little as we collided. His hand trembled as he clasped the back of my neck. The knot of emotion in my chest grew as I held him as close as I had Poppy, and in that silence, I thanked the gods—sleeping, dead, or whatever as I dropped my forehead to his shoulder.

Awwwwwwwwww 😭😭😭 FEEEEEELLLLLSSSSSS

Kieran palmed my cheek. “You got me. You got Poppy. You aren’t alone. We’re both here. Always and forever.”

Fuck I love him!!!!

“Good.” He looked at me with bright eyes—eyes that pulsed with eather behind the pupils—as he clasped the back of Poppy’s head and bent, kissing her forehead. He rose from the bed. “I’ll be waiting.”

“To give you this dick!!”

I slid my hand over the soft flesh of her ass, slipping a finger between the cheeks and into the tight flesh there.

Getting her ready…..

I jerked back as an image took hold—one of the women I’d seen in those strange dreams or memories. The one I’d believed to be the Consort. She had hair so pale it reminded me of moonlight. My heart started pounding.

Hmmmmm

Seeing the two of them together, holding each other so tightly, brought a wealth of warmth to me.

It’s totally gonna happen!!!

“Just so everyone knows,” Reaver said, “I’m not cleaning up this mess.”

Fucking Reaver…. Hahahahahhahahaa

“There really aren’t words other than that my reasons for agreeing to the Joining have very little to do with Cas being a King or you a Primal god and everything to do with the love I have for both of you.”

😭😭😭

“You’re excited about this, aren’t you?” “Hell, yes, I am.” He lowered his head to mine, his voice low when he said, “I cannot wait to feel your fangs on my skin.” Warmth crept into my face.

Only him lololol

“It’s just that you’re beautiful, and I’m, well…” He trailed off, and I’d never heard him so thoroughly rattled. “I’m trying to behave…appropriately.”

Oh. My. GOD!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

Kieran and I were attempting to behave appropriately. Apparently, Casteel wasn’t.

Hahahahahahahhhhaha!!!

Hahahahahahahhhhaha!!!

Kieran slept behind me.

Love!!!!!

“Fuckboy is awake,” Kieran muttered as Callum slowly climbed to his feet.

OMFGGGGG HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA

Delano shuddered.

God fucking dammit!!!!!!!! GOD FUCKING DAMMITTTTTTT

Delano. Naill. Emil. Hisa—

All of them?????

back, and I realized then that I was crying—sobbing

sobbing really—as

Same!!!!!

“Her name was Sotoria,

I can never remember this woman’s name

“If I knew the answer to that, do you think I’d be standing here?” Nektas questioned,

Lies he knows
