He woke in a feminine room. A frilly comforter covered him and a pink canopy hung over the bed, along with a noticeable feminine cat scent. Pushing back the cover, he stood quickly. Not caring about his nakedness, he walked to the door. He needed answers, and his growling stomach needed food.

Opening the bedroom door, he tripped over a feline on the floor in the hallway. His wolf almost burst through his skin with the need to kill the cat scrambling from beneath him. Before she could slip and fall due to three legs, she changed into a young woman missing her left arm.

Fuck. Even he couldn't kill a one-armed woman who was little more than a child.

"You must be hungry." She sounded exasperated.

"Are you my guard?"

"If I was, I think you've healed enough to eat me. Hmm, I like the thought. Why don't you have a bite?" Now she sounded outrageously flirtatious.

"You're a child."

"I'll be eighteen next month."

"I like grown women."

"You probably like women with two arms."

"I don't

    Under the hot trickling stream of water in the back corner of the cave, Nicolas scrubbed himself using a bar of strong soap. He then shaved his beard and considered shaving his head, but decided to wait to see if the delousing medication worked. The filthy water splashed off his body and fell between rock crevices to the side of the shower area. When he finally felt clean, he jumped into the bathing pool. The back section was at least five feet deep. The pool wasn't as warm as the hot spring that fed the shower, but he welcomed the cooler temperature. For months he'd lay in his own sweat.It was hard to pull his body from the pool, but his stomach eventually growled and he wondered how long he'd spent cleaning himself and thinking about Zenya's tears. One minute wasted on her was too long when the revenge for the entire Eastern Clan rested on his shoulders.He couldn't allow her emotions to soften his heart toward his enemy. Obviously, he wouldn't be killing every cat he could sink h

    Vorlyk took the gnarled hand into his and pulled Madayah onto his lap. He kissed the mutilated side of her face and ran his hand over the smooth side. His entire body relaxed when she leaned in and kissed him.Nicolas felt their love deep in his gut. He cared about Franklin, loved him for the wonderful person he was but could never give the vampire what he wanted. Nicolas hoped to someday find a she-wolf mate to share his life, and Franklin, his best friend, understood that. He often teased Nicolas that he, Franklin, would be the gay uncle to wolf pups. Nicolas's heart squeezed, and for the first time in months grief shadowed his thinking more than revenge.Zenya's voice broke into his thoughts. "You need to ignore them when they get like this. It reminds me of Amy and Marcus."Nicolas managed a wry grin. "At least the walls here are stone."She laughed, and Nicolas absorbed the beautiful sound, letting it lighten his anguish. He chuckled out loud when she interrupted the clinging

    Preparations began immediately. Madayah was in charge of readying food and water. Everyone would carry a backpack. Zenya needed to speak with Nicolas privately, so he followed her through more rambling turns. They stopped in a large room holding gym equipment.She turned to face him. "I thought you might want to shift before we start out tomorrow.""Thank you. It's been months.""I'll give you privacy."She turned to walk away, but his chiding words stopped her."You think I need privacy to be wolf?""Well, no, I just thought you might not want a cat around.""I think it's something I need to adjust to because tomorrow it's going to be thrown in my face whether I want it or not.""Fine then, shift."He was already removing his clothing. She stood watching.Everywhere on his body that hadn't been healed by a vampire after being tortured held a scar. He relished each one because they reminded him of what he'd lost. Not the marring of his body, but the maiming of his soul. He tu

    It was the first time he saw all the she-cats at once. They were a sadly endearing group, juggling infirmaries and animosity with a quiet strength weaving in and out of their personalities. Getting them out of cat territory would not be easy.Esta was the cat referred to earlier as the Amazon, and she didn't hide her hatred of his species. She appeared to be the only cat without some kind of physical problem. Everyone babied Sheeba, but she batted their hands away when they tried to help her do anything. Nicolas thought that her blindness wouldn't be as hard to work with as Talya's missing limb. Zenya explained that Nikka didn't speak but that she was tough like Esta.Desi and Corla were sisters, and both had burns that covered much of their bodies. They refused to look at him, and quietly ate their dinner, sitting side by side, while physically leaning into each other.Vorlyk kissed them softly on their cheeks when he joined them for dinner. He looked deceptively youthful for a cla

    It seemed like only minutes before it was time to go. They all quietly picked up their gear. Nikka and Esta changed to cat while Desi and Corla handled the two extra bags. Sheeba placed her hand on Talya's shoulder and their small group was ready. Nicolas and Zenya took the lead, wielding machetes with Vorlyk taking their flank. Nikka and Esta spread out and worked the perimeter.They didn't take the same trail as when Nicolas arrived, and Zenya explained that if the cats came for them it would be from the front of the mountain, so they were going down the side. It was slightly longer, but safer.It was still dark when they hit the clearing at the bottom of the mountain. They entered the jungle with the first rays of light coming over the horizon.They traveled another two hours when suddenly Vorlyk was at his side. "Our guards just communicated that three cats are about half a mile ahead. Do you want to take care of them with Nikka and Esta?"Nicolas removed his clothes and placed

    The others listened silently when Zenya told them what happened to Desi and Corla.Nicolas saw their grief, but he also saw their quiet acceptance.This wasn't right. Women should not be this beaten down. No one should. Talya was the only one to let tears run down her face. The others grieved silently while they continued their journey.During the next hour, thoughts fired rapidly through Nicolas's brain. He reached for Zenya's hand and pulled her close to his side. "Did you hear Desi scream when you slept?""No. She was too far away.""I heard her scream.""That's impossible.""I need to speak with Vorlyk.""I'll keep the front position."Nicolas checked on the women as he made his way to the back. No one complained, though they gave him curious looks, each worn out, but determined to keep a steady pace. "I need to speak with you," he said when he got within hearing distance of Vorlyk.Vorlyk stopped walking and waited for the others to get out of earshot. "What's the prob

    Without Desi and Corla, keeping watch required each of them to increase their guard time. They were exhausted. Talya and Sheeba noticeably dragged their feet and made too much noise. They slept during the heat of the day, and at one point veered off course for more than a mile due to a large group of cats coming within a few hundred yards of them.Every day in the jungle took its toll. They had to make it out of cat territory before Zenya contacted Amy. They knew they were close, but Nicolas also knew it was even more dangerous now. They passed a few settlements and then the settlements became towns and the jungle disappeared. They could only travel in human form during the day, but they pushed on. The vampire had no more trees to shelter him from the sun and his steps faltered. Finally, miles of desert stretched before them and Zenya made contact with Amy.She spoke out loud after several minutes of silent communication. "Amy and Marcus are sending vehicles to pick us up, but we nee

    Troy and Bernard, in wolf form, accompanied Samson for the walk to the broken-down huts. Nicolas shouldn't have been surprised when Esta in all her petulance stepped forward first. Vorlyk immediately appeared by her side and placed his hand on her shoulder.Smart vampire.Zenya stepped out from behind the pair, and before anyone could stop Troy, he attacked. Esta went into instant fighting mode against Bernard while Vorlyk grabbed Samson holding him immobile. For a vampire not accustomed to fighting, it was a wise move, but Nicolas didn't have time to think of that until later. He went for Troy, grabbing him by the scruff of the neck and throwing him several yards away.Nicolas placed his hand on Zenya's shoulder while looking at the other she-cat trying to kill Bernard. "Esta stop." He put every bit of alpha command he possessed into his voice and then turned hard eyes to Troy, who was picking himself off the ground."What the hell has gotten into you?"Between breaths, the wolf

    VedaWe hear the music before the lights come into view. The party is outside on the large patio at Dmitri's house. Nikka decorated with white sparkling lights and paper lanterns. The music is unknown to me, which isn't a surprise. Technology is not my friend and I prefer the peace of the forest.Dmitri's voice echoes over the music. "Welcome, Veda, Witch from the line of Josephine, mate to Tyboll, and new member of the bear clan."The music shuts off suddenly and I can do nothing but return the formal greeting. "Thank you, Black Demon Bringer of Death, mate of Nikka, Liege to the bear clan."A restless mumble from the bears fills the night. Have I said something wrong? Tyboll's hand tightens on mine. Nikka appears slightly shocked before she steps forward and wraps me in her arms. "What have I done," I ask her silently."You're fine. He just hasn't used his full title in centuries," she replies into my mindI turn to Dmitri, who looks at his mate with a soft smile. "I am sorry,

    TybollShe shows me her circle of herbs - explains about upsetting the balance and using all the Goddess's gifts wisely. I listen. Part of me is terrified and the other in awe. To live separately from everyone to hide your secrets takes great sacrifice.She understands my need to examine what I've learned. She heads to the cabin to cook while I go running as bear. She holds no fear that I will give away her secrets. We are mates. Her secrets are mine.I close my mind from Dmitri as I think about all Veda has told me. I shouldn't have been surprised when the largest bear of our clan blocks my path a few miles from my cabin. The Kodiak, alpha to the greatest clan, stands in front of me. He is also my brother by blood and like most brothers, we have our differences. This situation will be no different."Tyboll," his snarly voice rings through my head."Alpha," I reply pleasantly."You don't fool me. You are mated to the witch. Did it occur to you that I should be informed of this?"

    VedaTyboll's new rule works. Less talking and more sex. This is one demand I am incapable of dismissing. We are stretched out on the bed with me lying on top of him. His fingers run up and down my back while he breathes into the hair against my neck. Where he bit me is sore, but I wouldn't dream of complaining. It feels right. Being in my mate's arms is right. I whisper a silent thank you to the Goddess.Tyboll answers. "You're welcome."I roll my eyes, but don't bother correcting him. I'm actually thankful to him, too."Come on, woman, we're taking a bath." He lifts me as he stands. I'm cradled in his arms and feel incredibly safe. And loved.Does he love me? I'm careful to keep this thought from drifting into his mind. Nikka told me how to do it. I just need to practice. He doesn't respond, so I must have been successful. Tyboll lowers my feet to the floor when we're in the bathroom. I watch as he leans over and turns on the water. His back and thighs are muscular and sexy. His

    Tyboll"I've listened to you shout for an hour now. Calm yourself, bear."I hear the end of patience in Dmitri's voice. I take several deep breaths and try to do as my liege says. It isn't easy. I keep thinking of meat. Each time I do, I feel nauseated and my anger rekindles. To never eat meat again is not going to happen. I've run out of things to say anyway and throw myself onto the large couch in Dmitri's front room."I knew this happened last night. Your blood smells even better than bear. You now have witch blood running through your veins." He holds up his hand. "Do not blame me for my silence. You were in no condition to have this conversation. I also needed a night to think on what needs to be done."My stomach twists painfully. "You cannot reverse it is what you're saying?""No, I cannot. I'm not sure if you will actually want it reversed once you know your capabilities." He continues before I can object. "The difference between you and your mate is that I trust you."I

    VedaThat did not go well. I didn't think it would, but I held onto a small amount of hope. I know eventually he will come to his senses. Right now, though, I am left in need. Staring at his bare chest and wanting to run my nails over his muscled flesh almost made me beg. The man might be stubborn, but he is gorgeous.As a mated pair, I know at this point we should be having so much sex that we are both sore. I've made plenty of tinctures to alleviate the soreness so mates can continue without a break.A lot of good the knowledge on how to make such a tincture is now. If I'm not running from Tyboll, the stupid man is running from me. It's strange because after the thought of Tyboll becoming a witch settled, I wanted to celebrate. I am not alone. I can share the sacred knowledge with another. I do not need a child. I will no longer be alone with the great texts.Tyboll might not like it, but the gift bestowed by the Goddess can only be undone by her. No vampire can help him. I decid

    TybollI wake from what feels like a winter hibernation. I'm starving and the rumble in my stomach only enhances my need for food. Something smells wonderful. I'm naked in my bed and vaguely recall my illness the night before. I remember Dmitri coming to the rescue. I also remember my thoughts that Veda poisoned me again. Unlikely, because I ate nothing before going to Mandy's. She is a witch, though, and there's no telling what they're capable of.My nose leads me to the kitchen. Veda stirs a large pot on the stove. I peer over her shoulder to see what has such an amazing smell. Without looking at me she speaks, "Clothes or I will not feed you, bear.""Humph." I wrap my arms around her and run my nose down the side of her face and stop at her neck. "I could eat you, woman, and I'd start right here." She stops stirring the pot. I can smell her arousal. I bite down gently on the skin holding my attention. "How did you know I'm not dressed?" I breathe against the mark I've just left.

    VedaStupid hare-brained bear, I mutter as I look the other way, pick up the slab of nearly raw meat, and toss it out of the cabin. Serving cooked meat was the hardest thing to do while I worked at the diner. The only blessing was that Becky didn't prepare the blood-dripping horror I just got rid of. I look through the kitchen and there are no vegetables. I settle on bread and cheese, though I'm no longer hungry. I just know I need to eat."You stay here or when I find you I'll lock you up," were the last words Tyboll yelled before he left.I thought about challenging his dictate, but right now I am too tired. I finish my meal and walk outside in the opposite direction from the barely cooked meat. My hope is that a wild animal will take it away in the night. This is what I did with all the meat given to me over the years by the bear clan as payment. My mother accepted their offering and then gave it to the wildlife, so I did the same. Maybe I should have said something, but politene

    TybollThe feelings running through me are impossible to comprehend. It took hours to drive to Dmitri's club and another hour to track Veda's scent and find the diner. The closer I came, the more insistent an inner... well... buzz intensified. When our eyes finally met, I felt as if a mountain had crumbled over me. I fought collapsing at her feet. I knew it was her witch's power and wondered if she cast a spell that made it difficult for me to come close to her.I continued thinking this until her lips met mine. Now we're on the floor and she's wrapped in my arms. Words that turn me into an utter pussy slip from my mouth and I don't care. If it bothers her so much that she leaves me, I won't call her woman. Though, she is. A beautiful woman."I can hear your thoughts," she sighs against my neck. "Maybe the word woman is not so bad." She lifts up slightly and stares at me. "I've never done this, Tyboll. I've had very little interaction with anyone. I never thought to have a mate. You

  • Fang Chronicles   Chapter 259: Part 7

    VedaWhy is the pull to a mate so strong? I pour over the great texts expecting the answer it usually offers. Nothing. I've read sections about mating, but they don't offer a solution to the problem.Mating is a bond that only death can sever. A witch's power is not stronger than the bond and a witch shall not interfere with a mated pair.Blah, blah, blah. My mother told me not to mess with a mated pair. I understand this. But now I'm part of a mated pair. I need answers about a witch mating and there is nothing.A witch will take a human male into her body. A female child will form from this union. You will know the time to search out your human. Do not call the power of your beast when in the human's arms. Control your beast or bear the consequences.It's too late for that. Tyboll and I allowed our bears to rise when we mated. Now I feel Tyboll pulling my power from me. Can he feel it? He must. The texts are written for a human and witch. Not a beastkind and witch.
