I wake up feeling a little achy but my body seems to be fully satisfied. I stretch and realise that I am lying in the same bed I woke up in yesterday. I quickly sit up as flashes of what happened earlier this morning flash through my mind.
I had never thought that I would wake up in the arms of a male and that waking up wrapped in those male arms would make me feel safe. I had always known that Mane Beatrice would either sell me to another Pride to become a servant or breeder or would grant Graves his request to claim me and continue to be the servant I am as well as becoming our Pride’s breeder.
A shiver goes through me at the thought of Graves and the conviction in his voice as I hang from my wrists and he whispers against my ear that I was his, that he was finally going to claim me. So when I had woken in this males arms, wrapped in his wonderful alluring scent it was like a dream.
I smile to myself as I remember the wolf that had wrapped himself around me do
My eyes then go back to my scars as shame quickly engulfs me, I quickly drape and then wrap the towel around my body before hastily making my way out of the bathroom and over to the small travel case that Victoria brought in yesterday for me.I opened the case and again looked for a servant or slave uniform to confirm my place, but when I didn’t find one, I had no choice but to pull out another light sundress. I slip it over my head before pulling the towel free and then returning to the bathroom to throw it in the hamper.I stop in the doorway of the bathroom when something Clara said dawns on me, I turn and walk back over to the mirror, take a deep breath, and lift my eyes. It takes me a moment to make my eyes focus on the junction between my neck and shoulder. However, once I do, I can’t believe what I see…I lean a little closer before lifting my hand and shivering as my fingertips skim over the beautiful tattoo mark sitting there. I don’t know what I was expecting, maybe just a c
The meeting with Xana and her High Council members went exactly as I thought it would.I sat at Xana’s desk with my laptop open in front of me, scanning some pack files before giving Xana my attention as she introduced her High Council as they entered. Walking through the office door first was Nami, she covered the Eastern territory; she was followed closely by June; she covered the North Eastern territory and then there was Micky, who came in a few minutes later. He covered the South Western territory.They handed Xana a folder each as they approached the desk before moving to the side. We then waited for Sora, who had come straight from one of the Prides within the Western territory that she governed. She was followed by Neo who governed over the North territory.I was starting to lose my patience at waiting when the door opened and Blade, the final High Council member of the Southern territory, finally decided to grace us with his presence. Hunter and Cole released just a hint of o
A light pink blush touches her cheeks as she nods her head. I move, sitting down on the space where she hadn’t placed any of the dishes from the basket. I move quickly when she picks up one of the plates. I take it gently from her and place it on the ground behind me.I then pick up one of the dishes, along with a fork. I dip the fork into the sweet and sour chicken and rice, lifting it and then lean a little closer, presenting it to her. The blush darkens on her cheeks and most of her fear seems to disappear as she leans a little closer to me and opens her mouth.Hunter puffs out his wolf's chest inside me at the show of not only submission but acceptance. Feeling his wolf purr vibrate through me, I concentrate back on my task as I slip the fork past her lips. I have to stifle a groan as I watch her close those lips around the fork.As I pull the fork from her lips, I have to stifle another groan as Cole shows me an image of her on her knees in front of me and my cock is sliding from
With the sound of my favourite song playing in my head, I pull her closer and start moving. The dance is nothing special, just a slight swaying of our bodies, I occasionally spin her outward the first one catching her by surprise, however, by the third time she is laughing and it just adds to the melody in my head.We dance like this for a while longer before I stop and with my arm still firmly around her waist, I lead her back over to the picnic blanket. I crouch down on the blanket and help her as she picks up what is left of the food which of course isn’t much and places it back inside the picnic basket.I place the cork back in the bottle of wine and return it to the basket. Once everything is tidy and put away I move the picnic basket off to the side and then move so that I am sitting behind her. I wrap my arms gently around her chest, not wanting to scare her and carefully pull her back so that she is leaning against me.Hunter growls as Cole Hisses when she doesn’t fight me and
A small satisfied smile pulls at my lips as I see the pleasure-dazed look in her eyes and know that she can’t answer me just yet. After a few moments, I finally release my grip on her hip and slide my hand up her body until I reach her cheek. She smiles and turns her head slightly, leaning into my hand as she purrs.I don't move; I stay where I am. I listen as her sweet purr continues and her eyes close and then slowly open, the pleasure high slowly ebbing and reality slowly returning to them. When the high has faded from her eyes, I close the gap between our lips, placing a soft kiss against hers before pulling back and whispering again."Are you okay?"I'm glad and suppress a sigh of relief when I don't see any fear in her eyes as she smiles, nodding her head, making me chuckle at herstilllack of words. I place a soft kiss on her lips.A surprised shiver runs through me when she lifts her hands and places them on my c
After being dismissed, Blade returned to his upper Den chambers, finally losing the slight restraint he had on his temper as he entered his small study. Destroying everything before his cheetah took over, making him shift and jump out his open study window, and down the roof levels until he reached the ground.With his cheetah channelling his anger into their run, Blade is now able to think a bit more clearly. He huffs at the audacity of the new Shifter King, thinking that he can just come in after so many centuries and change everything, especially when everything has been running smoothly and profitably.Once his anger had calmed to a more tolerable level, his cheetah made his way back to the Den and up to his chambers and shifted. Blade sighed as he entered his small study. However, instead of calling on his Omega servants, he decided to straighten it up himself, while he considered everything.He was surprised that he hadn’t destroyed as much as he thought he had. As he placed the
It wasn’t hard to tell that Gabriela was Vlad’s mate. Just watching how Vincent had ripped Kolby to pieces and then his reaction to me being near and barely touching her was a dead giveaway. As soon as he started stalking over to us I backed off and allowed him to pick her up and walk out of the interrogation room.I watched him leave and shook my head as I got to my feet. I looked at Jonah as he fell into step next to me and said,“Well, that was weird…”“Not really… A mate will do that to even the most evil of us.”I mumble in reply knowing that no matter the male a mate can enhance them or destroy them and when you find the one destined to be yours, you tend to want them to enhance you or you strive to destroy them before they destroy you.The thought of mates has a certain sinful Witch filtering into my mind and I wonder again if the reports of my mate being killed on the battlefield were just rumours or if they just told me that to control me more.I look over at Jonah when he do
Some of my team members other than Jonah occasionally ask why I deprive myself and don’t let myself enjoy or indulge in the feeling of feeding and the fucking of a good willing or not-so-willing female or male can provide. I have to admit I have thought about it a few times as supernaturals have a naturally high sex drive along with heightened emotions, including lust. Now; for most supernaturals especially Vampires sex is the main outlet for all emotions and it is always easier and more pleasurable when combined with feeding.I have been tempted to try especially when I have Mane Nari within my arms and my fangs buried deep in her neck.However; even with her, with how soft her skin is and how inviting her body may seem as soon as the high of sinking my fangs into her delicate neck subsides and the taste of her blood hits my tongue I realise that she isn’t my Witch and everything in my body rebels. I have always had to fight that reacti
Romeo and Jonah hadn’t been fighting, though they had been watching as it progressed through the Forbidden Mountains. Romeo understood where his cousin was coming from by teaching some of these Prides who is now in charge and that change was coming.Romeo knew that his cousin never did anything without reason. However, he didn’t understand why he was so focused on Vlad as it seemed he was making a direct line for the MoonKing kingdom’s castle.As a feeling of unease ripples through him Romeo looks over at Jonah from his perch and opens his link,“Scout out the main camp. Report the chatter.” “Yes, boss.” Jonah lets Cyrus surround him with his Demon smoke and teleports just outside Nathaniel’s main battle camp. Cyrus taps into his Demon abilities making him invisible to all those around him. It would take another Demon or a very high Vampire to be able to detect him.As Jonah makes his way around the camp he hears the soft chatter of the warriors, finding out that some are warriors p
Once everyone starts to move, Blade and Silas keep ahold of Xana as they make a quick round of the closest members and then make their way back inside the castle Den and to their chambers to complete the more private part of the coronation ritual. Taking advantage of the loopholes in his oath Blade takes them back to Alpha Ken’s guest chambers.Blade stops at the door, turns and makes Xana back up until she is leaning against Silas’ chest, he wraps his arms around her knowing Blade’s intent. Blade lifts his hand to her chin and leans down placing a soft kiss on her lips as he pulls back he whispers.“Shall we see just how jealous and aroused you get?”Xana shakes her head slightly disagreeing, Blade steps back chuckling, he lifts his head to look at Silas,“Hold her while I get our lovely Elizabeth.”Silas tightens his arms around her as he nods to Blade, who then turns and opens the doors behind him. Blade walked into the chamber and over to the door he saw Beta Graves put Elizabeth
Xana turns slightly the other way and holds out her other hand, like Blade, Silas doesn’t hesitate to slide his hand into her and step up next to her. Then at the same time they both step even closer wrapping their arms around her waist. Taking a deep calming breath Xana then says,“High Elders Nami and Sora will now join us on stage to perform the coronation and crowning ceremony making me and my chosen’s equals.”Elizabeth was sure that you could have heard a pin drop even with normal human hearing with how dead silent everyone in the proximity were. Elizabeth watched as Elder Nami stepped onto the makeshift stage followed by Elder Sora who was holding a velvet pillow with a beautifully gem-decorated dagger. Once they are in position, Elder Nami takes a step closer and starts the ceremony“Princess. Turn and kneel.”Elizabeth watched as Princess Xana turned and kneeled each of her hands still being held by the males on either side of her. “Princess Xana, do you accept the ascension
Silas closes his eyes as his chest rumbles in pleasure at the sweet scent coming from her. Silas feels the two males behind him as one takes a step closer. Feeling his intent to interfere, Silas releases his Royal aura, making both males freeze in place before going to their knees.Silas opens his eyes and locks them with Blade’s smirking as he lifts his head, makes a show of extending his fangs for Xana and then sinks them into Elizabeth’s pulsing vein making Elizabeth scream.A shiver goes through him as he Retracts his fangs and sucks, filling his mouth with her blood and letting out a low groan as the sweetness of her blood touches his tongue and sends pulsing pleasure straight to his cock. As much as Silas and Blade wanted to continue getting lost in both females they knew that the announcement time was fast approaching. Silas takes one more mouthful before he swirls his tongue over his bite and lifts his head pulling back on his aura allowing the males behind him to once again
Meanwhile… Nathaniel stalks into the warrior, and as he expected, they attack, quick as lightning Nathaniel and the warriors behind him take out half of the Pride before the Mane exits the Den. Nathaniel moves quickly, stepping behind her, wrapping his clawed hand around her throat and squeezing. Making her shiver, Nathaniel with Cole sharing he hisses next to her ear. “Surrender or die.” Not wanting to lose her entire Pride, the Mane reluctantly whispers. “Surrender.” She then tilts her head back a little, allowing her Cheetah to come to the surface. She lets out a loud roar, calling to her warriors to stop and surrender. Without releasing his hold still on the Mane, Nathaniel’s warriors round up what’s left of the Pride, forcing them onto their knees before him. Once everyone is present and on their knees, Nathaniel growls. “I will only give this choice once. Join me or…” The Mane, knowing that she had no chance against the creature behind her, whimpered and surrendered, N
As Nathaniel enters the hall he opens his link with Alexander.“Alex, 500 warriors at the ready. 2 of my elite teams and 5 team heads in the training field in 10.” “Immediately. Your Highness.” Nathaniel cuts the link as soon as Alexander answers him, knowing that the warriors he asked for will be standing ready and waiting when he walks onto that training field. Nathaniel heads up to his chambers, opens the outer door and walks through the entry and sitting area to his bedroom.Nathaniel has to suppress the growl that Hunter has travelling up through his chest at the impact of Elizabeth’s scent mixed with his while being combined with the lingering scent of sex within the room.Still feeling quite calm Nathaniel walks through the bedroom and into his closet, quickly changes into his Royal fighting suit before pulling out his small mission duffle bag. He stuffs in a couple of essential items of clothing before walking out of the closet and into the bathroom where he picks up his tra
Julian and Victoria made their way to the location that Savannah had given them, they stopped at a couple of Prides along the way, asking questions and doing a quick search but coming up empty making them move on to the next one.Little did they know that as they approached the Shadow-Claw Pride the next morning the SUV carrying Alpha Ken’s messenger pulled up in front of King Castle. The warrior Stan gets out of the driver's seat and walks up the front steps to where Griffin is waiting.Memphis does a quick Angel scan of the warrior in front of him before handing control back to Griffin finding nothing hostile. Griffin turns his back to the warrior as he says.“Follow me.”Without waiting for a reply Griffin heads into the castle and leads the warrior into Nathaniel’s office. As soon as the warrior has entered past Griffin, he says gruffly.“Wait here. His Highness will be with you soon.”Griffin backs out of the office and closes the door. He walks a little further down the hall and
The Shadow-Claw Pride convoy travels uneventfully toward the AshMane Kingdom Pride when Alpha Ken gets a link from one of his warrior scout teams sent out earlier that morning to set up watch.“Alpha, an unmarked Royal SUV heading our way. Instructions?” “Which Royal?” “Unsure.” “Take it out.” Ken knew that if it was heading in the opposite direction to the way they were heading then it was most likely one of the other Kingdoms and if it was unmarked as his warrior scout had reported then it must be a messenger. Everything is quiet until his SUV slows to a stop, Alpha Ken opens, steps out and approaches the scout standing off to the side.“Report.”“A messenger, he was carrying this.”The scout passes Ken the envelope, Ken takes it and looks at it closely noticing it is sealed with the other new king’s royal seal. Getting back into the SUV Ken opens the message without damaging the seal and reads over the contents.Kyria shrinks back in the seat next to him as his aura strengthens
When I had finally fought off the effects of whatever he had injected me with I instantly felt the distance and the weakness of my connection to Nathaniel as I sat up in the bed and looked around the room he had put me in.Though it wasn’t his private room in Vapor-Moon his scent was everywhere so I had no doubt that it was his. I try to feel Clara and Matilda and let out a sigh of relief when I feel Clara stretch her body under my skin and then feel Matilda slide her calming presence over my mind as I realise now she has done that many times, I just didn’t know it was her.Feeling dirty, from the short time I could feel Graves’ arms around me, I crawl off the bed and head into the bathroom for a hot shower. I try not to take too long not wanting Graves to come in and try to join me. I step out of the shower, grab the towel hanging next to the shower and dry off.I wrap the towel around me and then step close to the door, I let my hearing expand and listen into the room making sure th
