Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 120 - Kiema
I lay on the cold cement floor of the CPI labs. Everything inside me sizzled and fizzled like water dancing on a hot skillet. Anda had vanished back inside me with the magic bomb I'd somehow managed to set off. "You have excellent instincts, Kiema. Remember that," she said from inside me somewhere. "Then I'd really appreciate those training lessons you said you'd give me. If I don't even know when Asta shows up, how am I supposed to save and protect my family?" I retorted. "The answers will come to you, little sister. Do not fear. Your time is coming soon." With that, she once again disappeared. I rolled to my side, my head and body aching with each breath. "Thanks a lot for nothing.""Well, that's a little rude, luv," Lukas said as he helped me to my knees. "I was doing the best I could, considering I was smashed face first into the floor."I chuckled. "I was talking to Anda. Not you. Thank you, Lukas, for helping me up." He glanced over me quickly before turning to At
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 121 - Lukas
"Watch the bloody holes, luv. My spleen can't take much more of your shite driving.""I've never driven before, so be glad you're still alive, you bonking wanker."I smiled. She had picked up my slang faster than I could have imagined, but I was pretty sure she didn't really understand what she was actually saying. "I still don't understand how I got stuffed on the floor while you get to ride pretty as you please up there," I said from my hiding spot just behind the driver's seat of the truck. "Because they'll recognize your face. Except for Ferria, Juan, and Aeron, no one here should know who I am. And you can keep my magical signature from flaring. Hence, I get to see what's going on. While you get to sit back and wonder. You know, like when you left me under a rock for hours on end." I sighed hugely. "Just hurry up. But try to get us there in one piece. This is the worst plan I've ever been a part of. You just want Ransom and Saint to kill me before Atlas gets a chance
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 122 - Kiema
I shut the door with a soft click. "Oh thank Gaia. I don't think we were seen." I slumped against the door in petrified joy. Turning, I felt that joy ooze away as fear strangled me once again. The man was as tall as Saint, even if he was slimmer. His muscles were clearly defined - especially the ones in his arm. The ones locked around Lukas' neck? Yeah, those were deliciously outlined in the soft lighting. My body went warm and liquid. I brushed it aside. This man had one of my family. No matter how much I wanted to take him in my mouth, bathe in his scent, he didn't get to do that to one of mine. I really hoped he wanted to be one of mine. I could definitely get on board with that idea. Then I wouldn't have to punish him. Or I could let him punish me."For fuck sake, Kiema, get your bloody head out of your knickers and do something," Lukas said, his voice a strained whisper. He was pulling on the man's arm, trying to get some room for his neck, probably needing some extr
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 123 - Kord
Glaring at the beautiful woman in my arms, I rolled my eyes. Could no one follow a simple ancient prophecy these days? Must they always run around indulging their own whims while eons of history are tossed aside like so much trash? She stirred. The potion I'd blown at her should have kept her under far longer than a handful of seconds. I gritted my teeth. Something else she's screwing up for me. With a sigh, she curled against my chest. My lower body tugged. I dismissed the sensation. There was much more at stake here than just my raging body in need of satisfaction. Moving to my little area at the end and around the corner of the lines of shelves, I set her down in my chair. I went back and retrieved the male. Another complication I hadn't planned on. They were making me out to be a fool, and they didn't even realize it. The main door slammed open. I snarled as I glanced over my shoulder in the direction of the entrance. Did no one recognize the books? There were literally
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 124 - Kiema
I kept my tears to myself, knowing instinctually this man was going to hate me for what I was doing even if it was saving him. I didn't need to add insult to injury by letting him see my understanding that his structured and disciplined life held no love. Over his head, I could see Lukas trying to get up to his hands and knees. My brother made it, barely, but he was making his way towards us. His desire to help, to protect, even in his slightly damaged state, was something beautiful to watch. "What the fuck did you just do to me?" the man between my legs snarled at me."I made you whole. Welcome to the fucking family." Levering myself up against his chest, I pushed to my feet. The hollow emptiness between my legs...I brushed it aside. I needed to get this odious man and Lukas out of this hell hole before Ferria or Asta found us. Grabbing Lukas under one of his arms, I helped him to his feet. The man who unhappily completed my mate ring was already on his feet. He was boun
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 125 - Saint
"And now we're in a jail-type situation. Waiting on my evil adopted monster to come kill the guys and siphon my magic. And they - well, we - did not live happily every after. The End," Kiema finished her tale with a weak laugh. "I'm glad you don't mind standing or laying down, honey. Your ass is mine," I growled low over the mental connection she'd forced open with her banshee screams."Get me out of here, and you can claim my ass anytime you want, Saint baby."My dick gave a half-hearted jerk at her words. I was too fucking upset and scared to think about her ass in anything but disciplinary terms right now. "I can get her tracker data. See where she's at. If she's far enough away from Juan, I can detonate him. She might be able to escape in the panic," Xander offered. "Do it. Now," I growled. He shot me a scowl; brows arched high over his dark eyes.. "Please." I sighed. "Thanks, brother."He slapped me on the shoulder as he raced by. With a dark laugh, he said, "
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 126 - Kord
"What the fuck just happened? Was that a bomb?"The woman laughed. "Oh yeah. My fake daddy's the bomb.""I didn't ask, and certainly don't care, what you think of your father. Even if he is fake. Where was the bomb even located?" I asked as we ran down another alley. "No, gov. She means her fake father was literally the bomb. Her men got to him, shot him up with tiny robots. I'm guessing they detonated him as a distraction. Thank Gaia we were on the other side of the place," the man explained as we all stopped at an empty corner. Peeking around the edge of the building, the woman nodded as she beckoned us to follow her as she crossed into the street. We plunged down another dark alley. The stench of piss, vomit, and desperation pushed at even my deadened sense of smell. I turned my head. I grabbed the woman's hand as the sound of footsteps up ahead registered in my ears. "Stop. Someone's up there."She stopped immediately, pushed to the side of the building, pressed up a

I rocked to a stop when I saw Ferria standing in the glow of a streetlight. I almost chuckled. She was a whore. It was about time she stood in her natural habitat."There you are, you little bitch. Where's my magic?" she demanded, not moving from under the spill of the light."If you're talking about the spheres, that would be my magic. And it's back where it belongs." I laid a hand on my chest. "Guess you're shit out of luck, you filthy cunt."She jerked back as if I'd struck her. I felt like rejoicing. I'd always wanted to tell her my thoughts and feelings about how she treated her husband, but also herself. The woman had no self-respect. Always searching for power from outside. She'd never known, or understood, that she had more than enough power inside her. "Watch how you talk to me, little girl. Or this won't end well for you." She leaned forward, her face a horror mask under the unrelenting bright white light of the streetlamp. "Oh no. What are you going to do? Bea

Three months later"And I'm telling you right now, dad, that if you want to ever see these babies, you'll stop sending my mates to the Underworld for a cooling off' period. That shit is getting old," I said as I waddled into the hospital built for gods and demi-gods. He chuckled beside me. "But, bubbles, they deserved it. Crowing like they built Olympus bare handed. They were getting on your Circle's nerves. I could tell." He said as he lifted me into the bed. "Bring them back, dad. Now." I glared at him. Even though, on the inside, I was smiling like a loon. This was the type of relationship I'd always dreamed of having with a father. He sighed, a smirk still pulling at his mouth. With a snap, my three mates stumbled into the room."Damn it, Apollo," Saint said as he flicked his shirt. "Cerberus almost got me that time."My dad's head tipped back as he laughed and laughed. The babies inside me loved that sound. They kicked at my belly. I rubbed at the spot. "Easy

Six months later"Last time, I'll ask. I swear." Kiema swallowed heavily as she moved around behind me. "You promise you're okay not getting your deer back?" Kiema asked me as flicked the fabric of my dress this way and that to get it to lay perfectly.I waited until she looked up at me. That look of slight hesitation on her face tugged at my heart. "I promise. I was never meant to be a deer. A shifter of any kind."She nodded, sniffled quietly. "You ready for the rest of this then?" Kiema asked me as she adjusted the crown of flowers in my hair. "So much more than ready. I've been waiting for this my entire life." I bit back the tears that wanted to flood my throat. Not today. I wouldn't ruin this day with tears.She smiled as she stepped back. "You look beautiful, little sister." Tears gathered in her eyes. I held up a hand, looked at the ceiling. "Don't do that. I told you I wasn't crying today. You start crying, then I'll start crying. Then we'll have to postpone e
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 219 - Tennotith
The next night"Wake up, Saint," I said softly in our shared consciousness. I could barely contain myself. I had felt the swell of magic. Had felt it when it took root."Saint," I said again. The man slept like a rock at the bottom of a spring. "Mgmgs," he mumbled.Forcing our arm to move, I slapped our face. He shot up, his teeth bared. "Who's there?" he called out. "It's me, you buffoon," I said.Our head cocked to the side. "Ten? Why are you waking me up? Can't whatever it is wait until morning?" He snuggled back down into the comfortable bed in our new home. "No." I shook our head so he would fully wake up. "Wake up!"He sat up, pulling the blankets with him. "I'm awake. What can't wait until the morning, Ten?""Kiema is pregnant.""WHAT THE FUCK!?"I snickered as everyone in the room burst from the bed, fists and knives raised in defense. "What is it?" Ransom's head turned back and forth quickly, visually sweeping the room. With a grunt at its emp

Two weeks later"Are we finally going to try this? We've been prepping for what feels like forever." I licked my way up Saint's neck. He shivered as his fingers curled into the flesh of my ass. "Maybe we should wait one more day. I don't want to hurt you."I rolled my eyes under the cover of my closed lids. This man. So dominant. So caring. So sure I wasn't ready to take one of them in my ass. I guess I'll just have to show him that I was more than ready.I slid down his body. A wave of magic and all of us were naked as the day we were born. As I sucked his cock into my mouth, Kord came up behind me.Curling around my back, he pinched my nipples with one hand. With his other, he slid a hand down my belly and straight over my clit. With a sharp movement, his fingers were deep inside me. I groaned around Saint's dick as waves of pleasure washed over me. Sprinkled with the counterpoints of pain from Kord getting my nipples ready for the clover clamps. I felt my core cream at

The next day"Torture and then straight back to bed. I don't care that your father is the god of healing. This is ridiculous, Kiema," Atlas said as we stood in the elevator on our way to the basement level."Don't get trapped in the dungeons," Apollo had said as he laid his palm against the electronic plate on the wall of the elevator.Right. Dungeons in a god hospital. Gods were freaking weird.I patted his cheek. "I've got my main medical provider right next to me. I'll be fine. Besides I feel like a million bucks."He huffed a laugh as Mason and Lukas came up beside him. I wiggled my eyebrows at Atlas, looked over his shoulder, back to his face.He chuckled and rolled his eyes. "Yes, little sister. We've decided to try being a thruple."I wrinkled my nose. "What kind of word is thruple?""A three-person couple, luv," Lukas answered. I snorted. "And you guys won't let me make up words? That's a heaping load of Berserker shit right there."We were all laughi
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 216 - Ransom
I pushed the other two through the doors. I wasn't waiting another minute to see my girl. I'd felt her die. Felt my spirit try to follow her down that long tunnel. My heart had stopped beating when I saw Heppni literally rip her heart from her chest and crush it. But here we were. Alive. Healing. She was pale against the bright white sheets of the hospital bed. Although it was unlike any hospital I'd ever been in. Apollo said something about it being a place for gods and goddesses. I shook my head. It didn't matter to me what it was as long as it made her better. She looked over as we rushed in. Her eyes searched each one of us before returning to me. Tears flooded her eyes as I pulled her into my arms. We all sat on the bed, curled and huddled together while she got it all out. The guys and I had had some truly brutal boxing matches to deal with our own emotions. I was still achy and sore from a couple of well-placed hits from Kord. The man might be a nerdy librarian, b

My chest hurt. I tried to rub it, but my arms were restrained. "Easy there, bubbles. You'll pull your stitches if you do that," a man said. His voice was soft and melodious. Like listening to angels sing. Angels. Something about that word tickled my brain.Angel. Almost. Almost.Ransom. As soon as I thought his name, his face popped into my brain. I tried to sit up. Made it a couple inches before I was pushed back to the bed beneath me. I opened my eyes. Ignoring the stabbing pain that slid into my eyeballs, I blinked to clear my vision. A bright white room greeted me. The only color in it was the man who had a hand against my chest. I looked down at his hand. Looked up at his face. Raised an eyebrow. "Get the fuck off, perv. My mates will rip you to shreds."He huffed a laugh and removed his hand. "I doubt your mates will be doing much more than breathing for a couple more hours, but I'm glad to see that you're back, bubbles. Have a nice nap?" I leaned ba
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 214 - Oliver
Everyone Hellion had made me vow to keep alive fell to the ground as if they were puppets and their strings had been cut. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I hurried to the closest one's side. Pushed two fingers to his neck. Gone. I was so fucking dead. I blasted an oncoming human with a burst of magic. He withered where he stood. I sank to my knees next to the small woman with bright white hair. She was gone as well. The woman with the long brown hair threw her blade into an approaching Direct. It sliced through him like he was air. With wild eyes, she didn't even try to gather the particles of his passing. She pushed me aside as she cradled the smaller woman to her chest. "No no no not my baby no no no please no no," she wailed. Her agonized scream was muffled against the smaller woman's head.The rest of the humans who had interrupted our plans were either dead or falling back the way they'd come. Movement drew my eye. I squinted as I tracked it across the street. It wa
Iron Serpent Chronicles Chapter 213 - Kiema
I sent another stream of fiery magic at the Direct who thought to protect my mother. Some pansy-assed gifted asshole wasn't going to stop me from hunting my mother down and killing her. With a wave of my hand, a path cleared. With a curl of my fist, humans fell to the ground, their spines crumbled into dust. "I'm coming for you, Herpes," I screamed at the top of my lungs. She scurried away, down the side street towards the fighting arena I'd created for us to use for practice. I picked up my pace and followed her. "You better be fucking careful, honey," Saint said through my head. He was working with Arasne and Felix at the opening of the street where the humans were still grouped. The Faeries had set up a blockade of sorts, forcing the humans into a bottleneck situation. They were taken down one by one as Ransom had his horde of beasts funneled them through the line of magical warriors. "Always, Saint baby. See you in a bit." I rushed down the street Herpes had
