Raoul sprinted back to his quarters and found Sam. “Sam, have all the preparations been made for tonight?” Raoul asked.
Sam smiled and said “Good evening my Lord, I hope the meeting went well. I have prepared a table for you and the Luna in the Garden, I felt she be more comfortable outside... Mrs Oakheart is cooking enough food to feed a small army. I have also taken the liberty of assigning the Maid Bella to Kitten and they are preparing in her bedroom as we speak. I have also assured your privacy by letting all but the most essential pack members have the night off.”
“ Sam, you really are the best Beta an Alpha could ask for!” Raoul said with a smile. Sam glowed with pride as he saw his Alpha race up the stairs.
“Dinner is served in half an hour, so hurr
Raoul woke up to Blackthorn purring in satisfaction. “She came and slept in our bed!”Blackthorn said thrilled.It had been a massive surprise when she had crept in that night. Raoul stared down at Jamie. Her red hair was a mess on the pillow as she laid on her side. The silk nightdress allowed Raoul to glimpse her cleavage and fully appreciate her figure. Raoul’s cock hardened as he saw her nipples peek through the silk. It took all his self-control not to reach out and suck them.“Iam so going to need another shower!”Raoul thought.There was a loud knock
One Week Later“I told you, I can’t do it, Dion!” Jamie said in a frustrated tone.“You just need to clear your mind and concentrate! You’ve already can do this with a cat, a horse and a dog. This mouse should be no challenge to you!” Dion said patiently.“The difference is we want to talk to you. Now, hurry up before I eat the mouse!” Fluff mind linked.It has been two days since Raoul had left to do some “work” for the King. He did not tell Jamie what is about, but then again he did not know Jamie knew about his role as the Kings Spy Master. He had kissed her and returned her Matantur saying, “Please, try to stay out of trouble until I return!”
“WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU ALL THINKING?” Raoul roared, “I LEAVE FOR THREE DAYS AND NOW SHE IS ON DEATH’S DOOR AGAIN!”Raoul had come back that day expecting to be greeted by a happy mate. He had wanted to complete the bonding process, as he felt they were both ready. The prospect of this had made the last three days Torturously slow, but he Had to meet the King of Thieves. War was coming and he need to make allies with the dark side of Riverswell. But the King of Thieves was not having any of it.Instead of a happy mate, he was greeted by a pale looking Sam and Weeping Bella. Instantly, Raoul felt something was wrong and he rushed up to his bedroom. There he saw Jamie lying unconscious on the bed with Dion casting powerful healing spells over her. Jamie was extremely pale and her veins around her neck and shoulders had turne
“Stand clear Raoul, I am going to give her heart another shock! " Jamie heard Dion say, as she felt like she was floating in the darkness."Fucking Dion, save her!" Jamieheard Raoul scream in agony.Jamie felt a sharp pain and a jolt as her heart started beating again. “This soul separation business is not getting any easier!"she thought, as she willed air into her lungs, until her chestfell back into its natural rhythm.After a few minutes, she started to open her eyes. "Raoul?" She croaked."I am here, kitten," Roaul said as he
Three days later, King’s GardenThings seem to be going really well between you and Kitten," King Stephan remarked, "and Dion reports that she is learning incredibly fast. The only fly in the ointment is the King of Rogues, refusing to work with us! ""Well, Kitten suggests that she should have a go." Raoul said carefully. His friend was right; things had gone very well the last few days. They could barely keep their hands off each other and had not left each other’s side. Blackthorn was beside himself with happiness."Oh?" King Stephan was surprised, but he did not question how Jamie knew about the situation.
One Week later:Wolf Moon Pack House (Raoul’s and Jamie’s Home)“It’s been a week, Sam!Her lady parts must be completely anilhilated by now. I mean, nobody has seen them at all! We don’t even know if he has completed the mating bond with her yet!" Thorne complained. Sam spat out some of his tea and coughed.“If I did not know better, I would have said you miss our Luna at the kennels.”Bella made a joke.The three of them were sat round the kitchen table having a rare tea break."Dam right! Rumors say the King is starting to miss Raoul as well, "grumped Thorne.Bella smiled. It was all true, of course. The Alpha’s room was, of course, soundproofed, but everyone knew they were going at it like rabbits. Very, very horny rabbits.Bella did not tell Sam or Thorne what she saw when she went into the Alpha’s room. The bed was completely
"Well?" Raoul demanded.King Stephan sighed and said,"We needed to talk to Jamie and we knew you would not let us. So Dion and I came here. I got Dion to cast a hunger spell on her so she would come down into the kitchen."Raoul glared at Dion and growled, "Why would you need to do that?""To be fair, he was against it, but I needed to know where her allegiances were, especially when the King of Rogueshad specifically requested to meet with her. It raises questions that I needed ananswer to!" King Stephan explained."Are you suggesting my mate is a traitor?" growled Raoul.
Jamie and Raoul headed into the city to meet the King of Rogues. Raoul was obviously slightly nervous about the visit. Jamie, on the other hand, was excited. She loved the bustle, smells and colours of the city. As Jamie was trying to cast them all to memory, asRoaul guided her to a tavern called The Cat’s Claw.Jamie walked into the Tavern and it reminded her of The Crone’s Head, except there were far more decorations on the walls and doors leading off to smaller rooms. The Tavern was full of punters, and there were a couple of barmaids rushing around with jugs of beer. The maids were not scared of slapping the customers if they got too touchy.
Two weeks later.Jamie had moved back into the pack house and had been on complete bed rest for the week. In the second week, she returned to training. Jamie had also returned to The Cat’s Claw. Eric had been true to his word and not tried to make a move on her. However, Jamie sometimes caught him staring at her longingly. She ignored it as best she could.Raoul and Jamie had not been intimate over the last two weeks. Jamie said she was too tired, but the truth was she had not quite forgiven him. Raoul had been making the effort and was spending a bit more time with Jamie. Jamie, on the other hand, tried to be a bit more understanding. Relationships were about compromising, she thought.Jamie
Jamie, for the second time in 24 hours, woke up in a different place than when she went to sleep. When she stirred, she first noticed she was in a soft bed that was familiar. The second was that there wasRaoul’s large naked body next to her. His arms heldher tightly against him. Jamie tried to move out of his arms, but it causedRaoul stir from his slumber."Five more minutes, Kitten, before we start arguing," he said in a sleepy voice. He nuzzled her neck, and Jamie could feel her heart thawing a bit."Raoul!" Jamie said.
Jamie woke up to find she was on a familiar red velvet sofa. Her head was banging and she felt sick."Urgh!" she moaned as she tried to sit up."Hang on a minute, Fire Sprite." Eric said as he came over to help her into a sit position."I don’t need your help, thank you," Jamie said. She tried to sound cross, but to be honest, her head hurt too much."Well, I can see that,”Eric chuckled. "Here, sip this and take two of these pills. They will help with the sickness and headache. "Jamie did as She was told and soon felt her headache ease. The drink had a slight metallic taste to it. "What is this?" Jamie
Jamie had cried herself to sleep the previous day. She could not believe the person she loved had brought up the fact that he had brought her for 20 gold pieces. Was that all she was worth to him? If it were not for the bond, would he have chosen someone else?Rose came into her room with Fluff. "Morning! How are you feeling?" She said cheerfully."Ok, I suppose." Jamie mumbled."Hmm yes, well, of course everyone knows about the argument you had with Raoul. So it is my mission to cheer you up today. So, how do you feel about going shopping? "Shopping? " Jamie said, confused.
Raoul panicked when he saw the empty room and rushed to find the doctor. He found him sitting in his office writing up some notes."Where is she?" Raoul asked angrily. "Ah, my Lord, good news! She awoke a few hours back and has made a remarkable recovery. It must be her water element coming back. The Luna has been discharged on the condition that she has plenty of bed rest and a proteinrich diet. " The Doctor said happily. Raoul relaxed a little. "So she is back at the pack house resting then?" The Doctor looked a bit uncomfortable. He really did not want to break the news that the Lord’s Luna
Jamie did not have any visions or dreams when she was out, a small mercy which she was thankful for. When she did wake up, she was in a light and airy medical room. She tried to move herself in a sitting position, but she felt every muscle in her body ache.Suddenly, Fluff jumped up on her bed, "Ah, you are awake!" He said happily. Jamie noticed that Sam was sleeping in a chair next to her bed. Her heart sank as she hoped Raoul would be there."He got called away by the King," Fluff said, obviously annoyed at the situation. "He's going to lose her if he doesn't be careful," Fluff reasoned.Jamie nodded sadly as she asked, "Care to catch me up on what I have missed?
Somewhere underground Jamie was slipping in and out of consciousness. She hardly felt the cold anymore and she was so tired. She dreamed of being in Raoul’s arms. "Pathetic! Why do you rely on a man to protect you? You are so weak! You got yourself into this mess, you can get yourself out. Or are you just going to wallow in your own weakness and let this cock scum beat you again?" A cold voice said, inside her head. Just then, she heard the stone slab being moved. Every two hours, the guard would drag her out, beat her and then sling her back into the water dungeon. She had had six beatings so far, and was feeling incredibly weak at this point. Ironically, the cold water had helped with the swelling, but not so much with the broken ribs and the broken nose. The beatings had not been a wasted opportunity. Bit by bit, she looked around the room.
Blackthorn had been pacing all day, which rather annoyed Raoul because he was trying to concentrate on some paperwork. "Blackthorn, can you give it a rest!" Snapped Raoul.Blackthorn growled and said "We need to see Kitten!"Raoul sighed, Blackthorn had said the same thing over and over again. Raoul looked at the clock and saw it was supper time. Jamie would be finished with her afternoon lessons and go back to the pack house for a bite to eat before going into the city. He promised
After an hour’s wait, Samreturned. He knew that sometimes the Luna stayed at the Elemental Guard Barracks, especially if her group were on serving duty or punishment chores. The omega had thought this was the case and reported it back to Sam."Ah yes, I think I remember something about that. Apologies Omega Archie, I must have got my days mixed up. Our Luna’s schedule changes frequently, "Sam said,and hethought nothing of it that night. Neither did an exhausted Raoul, who came into an empty bed. He also thought she must be at the barracks. "I need to spend some quality time with her soon. I have really neglected her as of late!" Roaulthought as he drifted off to sleep.The next morning, Rose and David noticed that Jamie was missing. "That is not like her," Rose said. "She loves sword skills!"David said, "Well, maybe she is ill. She has been looking extremely tired lately." Rose nodded her head in agreement.
