Introduction

«Perteneces a los Reyes Demonios. Vienen a por ti. ¡No puedes estar con ningún otro hombre que no sea Sabrina!»


Los primeros recuerdos de Sabrina de su infancia, desde que tenía cuatro años, son ver a su madre realizar varios rituales mientras se sentaba en círculo y miraba como un perro leal. Innumerables veces su madre le recordaba su destino, que era ser la reina predistendida de Ashrea.

Veinte años después, Sabrina cree que tiene la vida perfecta para ella: un trabajo bien remunerado, un novio y un futuro brillante en la industria de la prensa en la que trabajaba.
Las palabras de su madre fueron olvidadas y vistas como una divagación descabellada.
No fue hasta el día en que dos hombres parecidos a dioses aparecieron de la nada afirmando que eran sus compañeros e iban a reclamar lo que por derecho era suyo: su novia demoníaca.

Chapter 1

Durante toda su juventud, lo único que podía recordar vívidamente eran los rituales y los encantamientos que se vertían sobre su frágil ser.

Otros niños tenían recuerdos de infancia que probablemente consistían en ir a parques de atracciones, fiestas de pijamas, campamentos, pero el caso de Sabrina era el contrario.

Su infancia no fue nada de eso y no tuvo la oportunidad de socializar mucho con sus compañeros de juego.

Nunca se le ocurrió que fuera un gran problema el por qué su madre la mantenía alejada de las experiencias divertidas normales que cualquier niño de su edad debería poder disfrutar.

En lugar de ir a los parques de atracciones o acampar, recordaba vívidamente a su madre llevándola al sótano cada noche.

Se sentaba en medio de una imagen en forma de estrella roja mientras su madre cantaba canciones que ella veía como extrañas y recitaba letras extrañas para ella.

Se le ordenaba repetir después de su madre, quien luego procedía a bailar de una manera tan extraña pero intrigante.

Este extraño ritual continuó durante más de catorce años.

Su madre siempre le recordaba a Sabrina su destino predestinado de sentarse en el trono de Ashrea, junto a sus dos reyes demonios.

En esa etapa de su vida, Sabrina lo encontraba intrigante y cautivador.

Para ella, significaba que iba a ser como una Barbie.

Se casaría con un príncipe encantador y viviría feliz para siempre, pero qué lejos estaba de la realidad de todo eso.

Ahora, veinte años después, era una joven de 24 años llena de vida, con un trabajo bien remunerado y un buen apartamento también.

Las palabras de su madre ahora le parecían un montón de desvaríos insanos.

Escuchar a su madre hablar de su matrimonio con seres míticos frente a sus amigos siempre la exasperaba.

Pero su madre se mantenía firme y le recordaba que los reyes demonios vendrían un día a reclamar a su novia.

SABRINA

—Mamá, ¿puedes dejar de hablar de toda esta mierda ya? —mi tono tenso le respondió a mi madre, quien había comenzado una de esas conferencias sobre seres míticos.

Yo era la joven aquí, pero parecía que ella era la niña. ¿Cómo puede una mujer adulta pensar en todas estas cosas?

Quiero decir, ¿cómo pudo crear todas estas fantasías en su cabeza hasta que se volvieron tan reales para ella?

Era una mala cosa que nunca llegué a conocer a mi padre, pero ahora mi madre se estaba convirtiendo lentamente en una lunática.

Cuando me mudé de su apartamento, esperaba que sus teorías insanas disminuyeran y probablemente pensé que solo necesitaba espacio, pero claramente mi madre se estaba volviendo loca.

Confieso que de niña, me emocionaba con lo que ella decía sobre mi supuesto destino de unirme con dos seres míticos. Incluso se lo conté con orgullo a los pocos compañeros de juego que tenía.

Y ahora me doy cuenta de que fue un gran error de mi parte porque la mayoría de mis amigos de cuando era pequeña me veían como una loca.

Ahora soy mayor y mi madre sigue gritando esos mitos delirantes surgidos de Dios sabe dónde.

—Pero es la verdad, hija. Ellos vienen por ti —respondió calmadamente.

Maldita sea.

Lo que más me irritaba era lo tranquila que parecía. Cualquiera que entrara en nuestra conversación pensaría que yo era la loca.

La que se estaba volviendo loca sin darse cuenta de que mi madre aquí era la que se estaba volviendo loca.

—Mamá, por favor, para. Todo esto que dices no es real. Parece que tendré que llevarte a ver al psiquiatra —suspiré.

Sus rasgos se crisparon en un instante y se levantó de un salto del sofá marrón café hundido en el que estaba sentada.

—No necesito un psiquiatra, Sabrina. Solo estoy tratando de prepararte para lo que viene para ti: tu destino como reina de Ashrea —se defendió mi madre.

Solté una risa falsa al escuchar sus palabras. —Madre, mira lo que estás diciendo. ¿Puedes escucharte? Estás delirando. Realmente pensé que mudarme te ayudaría a dejar de contar todos estos cuentos de hadas inventados, pero parece que tu condición solo ha empeorado. Quiero decir, mírate —fruncí el ceño, mi mirada helada haciendo contacto con su aspecto desaliñado.

Su cabello rubio estaba despeinado y desordenado. Su ropa parecía desgastada y tan rugosa. Estaban arrugadas y arrugadas como si nunca las hubiera planchado.

Incluso toda su sala de estar estaba desordenada. Mis ojos observaron por todas partes. Desde la pintura descascarada hasta las cortinas polvorientas, las ventanas agrietadas y los sofás desordenados que tenían restos de papas fritas sobre ellos.

¿Qué demonios estaba pasando con mi madre?

—Mamá, ¿puedes ver lo desordenada y desorganizada que está tu habitación? Vamos, mamá. Por favor, deja de lado todos estos mitos fantásticos y ensoñaciones —supliqué desesperadamente.

Vi cómo sus ojos se llenaban de lágrimas. Luchaba con todas sus fuerzas para no dejar caer una lágrima, pero su cuerpo la traicionó y algunas lágrimas traicioneras se deslizaron por sus párpados.

—¿Por qué no quieres creerme? —sollozó mi madre, enterrando su rostro en sus manos.

Exhalé bruscamente y la atraje hacia mi abrazo. Ella sollozaba en mis hombros, sus lágrimas manchando mi camisa.

—Mamá, ¿cómo esperas que te crea cuando te ves tan desaliñada? —susurré en un intento de calmarla mientras pasaba mis manos por su espalda.

Ella se sonó la nariz y se apartó de nuestro abrazo.

—Me creías cuando eras pequeña —respondió en voz baja, con dolor en su tono.

Podía sentir su voz temblar.

—Eso fue porque era solo una niña, mamá. Era una niña pequeña que ni siquiera sabía distinguir el bien del mal —dije suavemente, acariciando las pálidas mejillas de mi madre.

Ella abrió la boca para hablar cuando mi teléfono sonó de repente, interrumpiéndola de inmediato.

Metí la mano en uno de los bolsillos de mis pantalones y saqué mi teléfono.

Una sonrisa se formó en mi rostro al ver quién llamaba. Era mi prometido, Henry.

—Hola, cariño —me reí y giré la cabeza, alejándola de mi madre.

A mamá nunca le gustó Henry. Cada vez que llevaba a Henry a conocerla a petición suya, siempre le daba la espalda y comenzaba a contar su historia loca de que yo estaba destinada a dos reyes demonios.

Estaba realmente cansada de que Henry intentara convencer a mi madre de que él era el hombre adecuado para mí.

Yo sabía que lo era y estaba bien con eso.

No quería que tuviera que demostrárselo a nadie más.

Desde el rabillo del ojo, podía ver que las facciones de mi madre se descomponían mientras Henry y yo conversábamos.

Ella apartó la mirada de mí y se desplomó de nuevo en su sofá.

El sofá crujió bajo la presión de su peso.

Para ser honesta, todo este apartamento necesitaba una renovación, pero mi madre estaba demasiado ciega para verlo. Todo lo que le importaba era demostrarme que estaba destinada a estar con dos seres míticos.

Ni siquiera uno, sino dos.

Ni hablar. No soy polígama.

—Está bien, cariño, estaré en tu casa a las siete en punto —concluí nuestra conversación.

Le lancé un beso por el teléfono y terminé la llamada.

Mi mirada se dirigió a las facciones enojadas de mi madre.

Exhalé y me froté la frente.

—Es por él y esa otra chica, ¿cómo se llama? Sí, Sharon. Ellos son los que no te dejan ver la verdad en lo que digo —mi madre gritó frustrada.

—Ni se te ocurra, madre —repliqué en respuesta a sus comentarios injustos sobre mis amigos.

—Henry y Sharon son literalmente los únicos amigos cercanos que tengo. Son los que no se asustan con tus historias locas y raras sobre mis supuestos maridos demonios. Literalmente ahuyentaste a todos mis amigos con tus cuentos aterradores.

El aire en la habitación parecía aumentar con la tensión mientras mi madre y yo nos mirábamos, un silencio inquietante se apoderaba del ambiente.

Intenté estabilizar mi respiración errática, cerrando los ojos e inhalando profundamente antes de exhalar lentamente.

—Creo que tendré que llevarte a ver al psiquiatra, madre —susurré lo suficientemente alto para que me escuchara.

—¡Cómo te atreves! —gritó mi madre de inmediato, levantándose de su sofá.

—Es realmente por tu propio bien, madre. Reservaré una cita, ¿de acuerdo? Tu condición se está saliendo de control. Tengo miedo. No quiero que te vuelvas loca en las calles de Nueva York, madre... —me detuve, tomando sus manos y acariciándolas suavemente.

—Eres la única familia que tengo, madre. Ni siquiera tengo un padre. Por favor, por tu propio bien —intenté razonar con ella.

—Una vez que reserve la cita, te lo haré saber, ¿de acuerdo? —añadí.

Ella inmediatamente retiró sus manos de mi agarre y me lanzó una mirada fulminante.

Recogí mi bolso que estaba sobre la pequeña mesa de tocador en el centro de la sala y me dirigí hacia la puerta.

—Perteneces a los Reyes Demonios. Vienen por ti. No puedes estar con ningún hombre que no sean ellos dos, ¡Sabrina! —podía escuchar a mi madre gritar su habitual cuento delirante, pero no le presté atención mientras avanzaba.

Mi madre era la única familia que tenía. Nunca supe quién era mi padre y, pase lo que pase, todavía amaba a mi madre.

Una firme resolución se apoderó de mi rostro mientras me dirigía a mi sedán estacionado.

Mi madre definitivamente necesitaba ayuda y me aseguraría de que viera a un psiquiatra.

Soft hot lips find the shell of my ear and he whispers, "You think I don't want you?" He pushes his hips forward, grinding into the back of my ass and I groan. "Really?" He chuckles.

I'm an ordinary waiter, but I can see people's fate, including Shifters.
Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm.

I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species.

I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate.

Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother.

“What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it.

“Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain.
