His Mate Her Savior Chapter 23: Madelyn
Wow. I keep thinking it and it keeps feeling completely inadequate to how I’m feeling, but I don’t know the right word. Cayden is intense, but everything he says resonates deep inside me, like he’s awakening something that was asleep and is now coming to life.It’s scary to know that he would kill someone, that he doesn’t even have to think about it. But it’s also a heady feeling to know that he would do that for me, without ever thinking about it.I’m not sure how, after such a short amount of time, but he’s made me feel safe in ways that I never have. That’s not to say that the violent side of his nature doesn’t scare me, it does. But the loving side, the side where he tells me everything that I mean to him, is addicting. I’ve never known any man, any person, who spoke like that. Unlike Alpha Alec, everything about Cayd says feels truthful, feels right. I feel like that piece of me that is awakening is drawn to him like a magnet, like it would hurt to be torn apart from him.So, when

Goddess save me from younger, annoying sisters.I race upstairs, trying to connect with first Reagan, then Malin or Quinn, and finally connecting with my mother.‘She’s fine, Cayd. We aren’t going to hurt her,’ my mother says. But I can see Madelyn through my mother’s eyes and I can see that she’s overwhelmed walking into the room with everyone already there.I rush to pull on a shirt and the concern for my mate has my erection falling away quickly. I couldn’t help that. Madelyn touching me, exploring my body in such a sweet way had my body responding.“Sweetheart, your heart is beating as fast as a hummingbird’s wings,” I hear my mother say as she takes my mate’s hands. Through our bond, I feel her pushing her calm into Madelyn. I see my Aunt Grace and Aunt Cara step up to her, smiling at her and each putting a hand on Madelyn’s shoulder, adding to my mother’s calm.“You’re very brave for talking to us. Brave for helping to make sure that this doesn’t happen to anyone else,” Aunt Grac

I thought sitting in Cayd’s lap would make me feel self-conscious and uncomfortable, but it was actually very calming, especially when Baron would purr. The gentle vibrations and rhythmic feel of it is very relaxing. I was a bit surprised that no one questioned how Cayd and Baron were acting toward me. They didn’t give him questioning looks or make comments about me being in his lap, or Baron’s purring, not even Reagan.After everyone agreed that they need to figure out how Alec knew I was in foster care, the conversation switched to Alpha Alaric and how he approached me and Angel. I watched, impressed at how Angel answers their questions.“Mom used to be on the council,” Cayd whispers in my ear. Angel must hear him, though, because she turns and smiles at me before continuing. Actually, as I look around the room, I realize that all of them, everyone in this room is impressive.It makes me sad to think that I have nothing to offer someone like Cayd. He says I’m his mate, but what if he

Watching and listening to Madelyn as she got excited over Meadow’s witchy lights might be one of the highlights of my life. She may not be wearing my mark, but I can feel her excitement and how relaxed she is around me. Her willingness to lean against me, to hold my arms around her, has something deep inside me relaxing.That is, until she asks about me staying the night with her. Then I have a very different feeling running through my body.‘She’s not ready to have sex, stupid,’ Baron says.‘You don’t know that,’ I say, but I’m pretty sure my wolf is right. It honestly doesn’t matter. Just her asking if I’ll stay close to her means everything to me.“Um, I don’t have any clothes to change into or sleep in, though,” Madelyn says.“You can sleep in one of my shirts and I’ll talk to Emlyn about getting you something to wear,” I tell her. I’m so excited for her to stay the night at the pack. I know it’s scary for her but I’m so happy that she’s enjoying herself enough to want to stay.‘Ca

I feel like my heart flutters every time Cayd kisses me and his family is just so sweet. My necklace, my very first necklace, is beautiful and one of a kind.When we get back to the table, I see nearly all of their noses go up in the air and several of them frown.“Are you alright, sweetheart?” Angel asks me.“Yes ma’am. Just…a bit overwhelmed.“It’s Angel’s kids. It’s not mine. Mine are delightful,” Grace says, making the others laugh.“Mother, no one has ever called any of us delightful. Well, maybe Emlyn, but definitely not me and certainly not Emerson,” Riley says.“I am damn delightful, thank you very much,” the big man at the end of the table says.“Said no one, ever,” Riley says.“I think you’re delightful, baby,” Quinn says, and it almost sounds like a purr.“Thank the goddess for mate bonds,” Riley says.“Here! Here!” the entire table says, making everyone laugh again.“So, Madelyn, tell us all about yourself,” Malin says.“What do you want to know?” I ask, looking around, see

I can tell that Madelyn thinks that her ‘humanness’ is the opposite of what I want or need in a relationship. It makes sense. When I look around the table at my family and our allies, everyone is powerful. But I’ve always been different. My sisters are Guardians, so it was always a given that they’d be powerful and it’s not that I’m not strong, but I’ve never had to consider being an Alpha. I have two older brothers ahead of me to take that position.So, I could afford to be the softer brother, the fun brother. And I love that role. I’m glad that I don’t have the stress and responsibility that Rich has hanging over my head. That’s not to say that there isn’t stress in the idea of being our company’s CFO. I know there is a big expectation, especially from Rich, that our company will continue to fund the pack and keep it wealthy and financially sound. But I wouldn’t have done well with a mate who was as powerful as my sisters or the other Guardians. And I wouldn’t have done well with som

Wow does this man know how to kiss. Looking back, Alec only ever kissed me here and there and never, ever like this. But then, his motivation was different.With Cayd, it’s like…like he can’t get enough of me, like he could kiss me forever and it wouldn’t be enough. His mouth is so warm, his lips so soft and firm, that I’m pretty sure I could kiss him forever and it wouldn’t be enough for me either.When he pulls back, we’re both panting. He rests his forehead against mine with his eyes closed.“I never hated having to breathe more than I do right now,” he says making me laugh.His eyes open and the sage green of Cayd’s eyes are rimmed with the darker green of Baron’s.“I love that sound, though,” he murmurs softly.“What sound is that?”“Your laughter. It’s a soft, sweet sound, just like you.”“Are you saying I’m soft and sweet?” I ask.He nods, tilting his head and coming in for another kiss. “Definitely sweet.”I let Cayd’s strong, sure arms hold me up, because the longer we kiss, a

I knew Madelyn would consider me saying no to sex a rejection. I know I would have if she’d have said it to me. Although, I would have understood more because of what’s happened to her.In some ways, I’m thrilled that she’s ready and willing to take the next step with me, but I need to be cautious. I was serious that she needs to truly understand what it means to wear my mark and that once she agrees, there’s no turning back. She has to be willing to commit to me for the rest of her life.But all evening while we’d been up on the falls and even once we’d returned, I’d smelled her arousal. Since I couldn’t do much about it, I’d been licking and nibbling on her hands as we walked. It wasn’t enough, but it had made it easier for me to deal with my own body’s response to her.So when she tells me that I can taste her, I practically moan out loud. I pull the blanket down, smelling the scent of her arousal as it floats into the air. I can practically taste her sweet pear taste on my tongue.

His Mate Her Savior Epilogue 2: Madelyn
Four Years Later“Daddy, who are waiting for?” my oldest daughter, Theia, stage-whispers to my mate.I see him glance at me from the corner of his eye and I know what he’s going to do before he does it. He whisper-yells right back.“We’re waiting for Tate if he ever gets his poop together and comes out.”I see a flash of light and I know that Tate heard him. Cayd and Tate have always been close and that hasn’t changed in the five years that Cayd and I have been together.Now that Tate has turned nineteen, he decided to take over their family’s coven. He waited a year, wanting to spend some time with his new mate, Daphne, before making it official. Now, his sweet little mate and their beautiful sprite daughter are sitting in the front row, right in front of us, watching as Tate is about to take over as warlock of his coven.“What’s he doing with his poop?” my third child and first son, Idris, asks.Cayd always wanted to name our first son after his father, since none his other siblings
His Mate Her Savior Epilogue 1: Cayden
Eleven months laterWhat a difference a year makes! From the moment that my mate ran into my arms, my life felt like it was going full-throttle into my future, a future that still looks so bright and beautiful I can hardly stand it.‘You always say that,’ my sweet mate says in my mind. That’s just one of many things that have changed in the last year. My mate’s ability to mind link me and use her enhanced senses has improved significantly.‘My future is you. And you, my love, are bright and beautiful,’ I tell her. I hear the soft purr in her mind, the emotions of her dragon that has strengthened in the last year. Every time we go to Araphyra, it gets stronger.As I expected, all of the dragons stayed in Araphyra. They created their own village or clan or whatever they call it in the mountain ranges that Lily, Silas, and Tamsyn found. Most of them have created their homes there, although some made their permanent residence in Araphyra. Samlael’s mate, Mevnenth, stayed in Araphyra and Sa

Everything here in Araphyra is so magical, and now, all of these dragons get to feel it too. I lean into Cayd as we watch Silas and Tamsyn find their families. I watch as the sprites, even the ones from Araphyra who don’t know the dragons, all sniffle and wipe their eyes. I watch as Anastasia hugs Ailduin, looking up at him and wiping a tear from his face.“Today is a good day,” I whisper to Cayd.“Yes it is. And there are many, many more for us and them,” he says, wrapping his arms more tightly around me.“Okay, everyone,” Lily says, wiping her own tears. “We have so much to show you. First, I think we should show you to your rooms. You are welcome here as long as you want to stay, but Silas, Tamsyn, and I found a place here in Araphyra, in a different land, where you might be more comfortable. There are mountain ranges there and I understand that’s where you were living before. Once you’re settled, we’ll show you around, and let you begin to connect with your magic. Araphyra is a mag

It takes a lot to get everyone into the vans and to the jetliner, but we make it work. Thankfully, there are enough leaders among the dragons to help keep things moving and since the really young dragons left yesterday, it makes it that much easier to get everyone settled.Rich sent the two pilots and several flight attendants to help us, and he also made sure the plane was stocked with food and beverages. The biggest surprise was seeing my parents, Reagan, and Meadow. They came out to assist in any way that was needed.As soon as my father saw the sprite mates, he burst out laughing. “The sprites strike again. Hello, I’m Alpha Liam,” he introduced himself to everyone. My mother introduced herself and, in her way, gently touched the dragons as they boarded the plane. I could tell that many of them could feel her aura as it touched theirs. Since they haven’t come into their magic fully yet, I’m sure it feels weird to them, almost like an awakening inside themselves. That’s what it felt

As cold as it is here in the mountains, there is steam coming from the hot springs. “Oh! How wonderful.”My grandmothers join me in the springs, showing me what they use to bathe themselves, using sand and scents found in the woods to scrub and scent their skin. Maybe that’s where the wild scents come from, or maybe, just like the wolves, it’s because of who we are.They ask me more about Araphyra and I tell them while we soak and then dry off using more plants to help absorb the water off our bodies. Once we’re dressed, we return to the fire. Cayd is back and is helping get this first group in the van. When he sees me, he comes jogging over.“I spoke to Rich. He’s getting a jetliner for us tomorrow. We need to talk to everyone by tonight and get their agreement to come back, but I also need more vans. Do you want to come with me or talk to the rest of the clan members?” He stops, leaning in and growling softly. “I like this wild scent on you. What is that?”“It’s what the dragons here

I don’t remember falling asleep, but I do remember feeling completely overwhelmed. When I wake up, it’s still dark outside but I feel my mate wrapped around me and the fire is in front of me again. I smile, thinking about how my mate always takes care of me.I carefully sit up, looking around the fire. Many of the dragons stayed to sleep here with us. It makes me glad and hopeful that they’ll all go to Araphyra and stay together.“He really loves you, doesn’t he?” my grandmother Camrys asks from across the flames.I look down at my sleeping mate. Somehow, after I sat up, he wrapped his body around me, still protecting me and keeping me warm, even in his sleep. Or maybe it’s Baron keeping watch over me. Either way, it makes me feel so loved and cherished.“Yes, he does. And I love him. When we marked and mated, I wasn’t sure what would happen or what it would be like. But I’m able to feel his emotions and hear his thoughts, although I’m not very good at it. I’m still surprised when I he

I watch my mate crying with her family. As much as I hate seeing her cry, I know these are good tears. I turn and look at Toddre.“Thank you.”“I wasn’t sure. I didn’t want to say anything, just in case I was wrong. But the ages match. I’m pretty sure Silas and Tamsyn have family here too. They’ll want to see them.”“We will make that happen,” I say, turning back to my mate as she and her grandparents pull back, one of her grandmothers wiping the tears from her eyes.“Oh, you have to meet my mate. This is Alpha Cayden,” she says, excitedly, turning to me.“You’re a wolf?” Qeddryn growls.“I am. But I’m not like the ones who did this to Madelyn or the others,” I say. “My family is blessed by the Moon Goddess. We, well the women in our families, are Guardians, much like Madelyn and the others in the Falkor line.”As we’re talking, more dragons begin approaching us. The ones from the hatching grounds, or as they call them now, the birthing grounds, also come to join us. For the rest of th

I never would have thought sleeping on the ground would be comfortable or that I could be warm in the mountains in winter, but with a fire in front of me and Cayd behind me, I slept great and stayed toasty warm all night.When I open my eyes, I see Toddre putting wood on the fire. “What time is it?” I ask.“Early. I’d say around 5am. You’re probably a bit jet-lagged so it might feel later to you.”I look around, seeing Torin, his body covered with sprites, and Avalon, with her body much the same. “Where are the others?” I ask.Toddre smiles. “Well, Dragon Fierce Lover went to see his mate,” he says chuckling. I laugh with him. The sprites’ names for the dragons are cute. It made me wonder what my name would have been.“Dragon Warm Heart left right after you fell asleep. Something about licking and not needing to choose one mate. He hasn’t re-emerged, so that should be interesting. And Dragon Grumpy Pants also went into the woods with his sprites, although much later.”I feel Cayd’s lip
His Mate Her Savior Chapter 71: Cayden
I feel the dragons relax as we sit. That doesn’t mean that I feel safe enough to let Madelyn out of my reach, so I tuck her against my side, keeping an arm wrapped tightly around her. I stay quiet as she tells the story of what happened to her, how she got away, how she met me, and then of our experience in Araphyra.When she’s done, they look at Torin and Avalon whose stories are nearly identical.“There are two more. We left them in Araphyra. They’re younger and I think all of us felt the need to keep them where they are safe,” I tell them.Orsid, the leader, looks at me. “What was that thing you said about sprites. You mentioned it and then Madelyn mentioned it too.”“Do you not know that your forest is filled with sprites?” I ask them, amazed.They all look at each other again.“Our forest is haunted. That’s why we’ve been safe from humans. They don’t come here. Especially on windy days and nights, you can hear the ghosts voices on the wind,” Ronnon says.“Those are no ghosts,” I s
