"For what? Telling the fucking truth! You weren't mated a full day and you came home broken hearted and...." My hand flies up halting whatever was about to come out of his mouth. "Remi, it's okay. We know it's true." Aiden says trying to defuse the ticking bomb inside of me. "What happened to me wasn't your fault! And it wasn't mine either! I didn't take a drink from a stranger or anyone other than my staff. As for the other bullshit. That's all it was. My bullshit! My fucking issues and inability to control my anger. Now apologize!" I scream so loud the glass in the double doors to the backyard cracks. "Like hell I will. You. Are. Coming. Home. End of discussion. There will be a meeting at which time Aiden and his father will join us." My father shouts. "I'm not leaving Remi's side!" Aiden yells. Blaze and Gunner stand at the ready to get between them. "I think we can all agree you had no trouble leaving your mate alone for what has it been since you two consummate your mating?
When we enter the clubhouse; Remi has my mother dancing to some rap song about twerking. They're laughing and having a good time. All of a sudden Remi squeals so loud everyone in the room watches as she runs towards the door. "Ohmygod! Skullz!" Skullz, the son of one of the original seven hellhounds; catches her as she jumps in his arms. "Hey, Ladybug. Longtime no see." Remi hugs him then climbs down. "Where have you been? Did you find that special lady?""Nope. Fraid not. I here the special lady is fated to a very old ass male." Remi holds her stomach as she laughs. "Who you calling an old ass male? You're only two years younger than me." I shout over the music walking towards my mate. I know I have no reason to be. But jealousy is pumping through my veins."Keyword in what you just said is younger." Remi slaps him in the chest laughing."You both so old; I'm gonna get yall some viagra like mortals use. So yall can get it up and keep it up." Remi jokes. We're laughing having a go
My mother, Cerberus' voice thunders through the room. And the crowd parts as my mother walks towards the commotion. "Emerson, you knew the rules coming in here. Mated females and males are not to be touched. Touching someone that is mated is a clear challenge to the mate. You issued a challenge. Payne answered. You should've heeded the warning you were given when you first walked over the threshold. As a mortal playing with paras more powerful, stronger, and faster than yourself; you shouldn't have issued a challenge. No one here will step in to help you. You're life is in her hands now. Let this be a lesson to all of you unmated females and males. Mated pairs are off limits!" Every unmated person in the room is stupefied. Something like this has never happened here before. Hearing about it is one thing. Witnessing it; is another. A half clothes Xavier comes to a stop next to my mother with a mortal female I've watched grow up along side him and Remi. Tianna gasps. Her hands are sha
Axel and Cerberus walk up to me and Aiden. "I have to say; I'm proud and envious of you child. You have a strength I don't possess. I would've never been able to let that female live." Cerberus says as she leans into Axel. He puts his arm around her shoulders and holds her close. I can't even begin to imagine being thousands and thousands of years old. And being mated for almost as long. "Trust me. It wasn't my strength. Blaze had a lot to do with it." At the sound of his name Blaze walks over to us. "Did you need something, Remi?" I shake my head. Cera extends her hand to Blaze. Instead of shaking it; he kisses her knuckles as he bows in respect. "Mrs. Ramos, it's a pleasure to finally formally meet you. I've heard many great things about you.""Please call me Cera. I have to say. I've seen you around here, but you're nothing at all how I pictured the amazing Blaze Francois, heir to the House of Maxim and sworn guard of the royal line of Lark's Fae females; too look. You're more
Remi bucks against my face as she grinds down on my finger trying to make it go inside of her. Her disappointment rings loud and clear. Finally, I giver her what she wants and slide my finger in her ass. "Another." Remi moans as she rides my face harder. I slip another finger inside her ass. I bite her clit and she trembles for me. My tongue slides in and out of her dripping pussy. She shoves herself down on my fingers harder. Faster. Her pussy clenches around my tongue and her essence fills my mouth. Her whole body is shaking. Her thighs tighen around my head. I keep licking and sucking until I've drank all of her sweetness down. Remi's legs are still shaking when I place her back down on her own two feet. I steady her then lower my mouth to hers. Tasting her own sweetness has her ready to come again. Turning her around I place her hands on the wall and pull her ass out to meet my cock. "You didn't think I was through with you already? Did you? That was just a warm up babydoll."R
The little dude is beating around the bush. I know he's a kid, but I'm not a beat around the bush kinda girl. Until it comes to this pregnancy; so it seems."See that boy over there. His name is Carter. He bet me ten bucks I couldn't get you to kiss me." He blushes again and my heart melts into a puddle of goo. "Well I guess since it's for ten bucks." I lean forward and kiss the little boy on the cheek. "Thanks, Remi. You're the best.""What's your name kid?""I'm RJ or Ruin. I'm Rage's nephew. My dad is Rogan; his hellhound is Wrath. He's the second heir.""Ah! I get it now. You got a reputation to live up to." RJ is smiling as turns around rubbing his tiny hands together. Carter's jaw is on the floor. More kids enter the room and I give up on working in the main area of the clubhouse. I'm heading towards the stairs not paying attention. When I slam into Tianna. "I'm so sorry! My brain's not functioning properly." I tell her. "No worries. You're just the person I was coming to fi
Aiden sniffs at his shirt and arm pits. "Why? I don't stink. I took a shower this morning. If I shower and don't use deoderant and cologne; I'm really gonna freaking stink.""Your cologne is upsetting her sense of smell and stomach. Do you want the poor thing puking every time you come near her? Close the door on your way out!" Cerberus shoos Aiden from behind me and takes his place holding me up. Aiden looks me over then shakes his head as he exits the bathroom. Cerberus holds her hand out and Tianna passes her the cool wet washcloth. My laptop has fallen open where it lays on the floor. My eyes widen and Tianna looks down to see what I'm looking at. Her eyes go wide. I must've pressed something and brought up my last search. Tianna quickly picks it up looking over at me. I shake my head and plead with my eyes for her not to say anything. She hurriedly clears my search history then closes the laptop. The panic that was starting to build eases. That is until Cerberus decides it's tim
I look to Cera and Tianna once again. Aiden looks between us three. "Will someone explain why she's crying? What was all the shouting about?" Aiden asks pulling my head under his chin. I snuggle in then rip off the band aide. "I'm pregnant." I whisper so low at first I doubt he heard me. "Say that again." I swear I can hear and feel the excitement, joy and happiness pumping from him straight into me. "I'm pregnant." I say a little louder. Not noticing that Blaze, Axel, and Xavier have now joined us. "So...I'm gonna be.....a....daddy?" He asks like he's not sure what me being pregnant means. "Yes, asshat." He pulls my face up to his and kisses me deeply. I feel his joy, love, and happiness running through my veins. "Yall hear that. I'm gonna be a daddy!" He shouts at the males in the room. Everyone is hooting and congratulating us. When my stomach howls again."Better go feed that baby and ya baby momma." Xavier laughs slapping Aiden on the back. Aiden sits me down beside him as
"I have a question. How do we know Skullz isn't the traitor and you're both helping Chance and Bael?" Gunner asks standing along side Aiden and Xavier who have taken up the position of blocking me from Vlad and Skullz view. "If we were the one's working for Bael and Chance; your sister and the twins would be on their way to hell with Bael. Not sitting in a room specifically designed for her to give birth comfortably. I wouldn't have invited you all here to figure out our next move or even told you we are her mates as well. If I was conspiring against you."Skullz stands there with his head hung low. When he raises his head his eyes lock on mine. I see the questions in his eyes. Do I trust him? Do I care for him as I always have? Can there ever be more between us? The answer is yes, I trust him. Skullz has been a part of my life almost as long as Aiden has. Skullz has proven time and time again he would lay down his own life for mine. I don't have to question his loyalty or devotion.
I shove away from Skullz. Remi yanks me into her side pleading with her eyes for me to calm down. "Talk." I demand staring Skullz down. "The first time I scented my mate was the night Remi was attacked. Her seventeenth birthday. Her scent was strong, but it was mixed in with yours. I was sure I was mistaken. Especially with the way you were acting. And everyone saying that Remi was your fated mate. I mean there was no way she was my mate if she was your fated. So, I thought what I was smelling and feeling wasn't right. The more time I was around Remi, I knew she was my mate. I never said anything or came forward because she never showed any signs of feeling the same. So, again I was confused. Vlad here picked up what was going on with me at 318 for casino night. He was having the same problem. Neither of us wanted to step on your toes. Neither of us wanted to force anything with Remi. Remi and I are so close because of the bond we share. Not just because we're friends. She's my mate
When I walk back into my bedroom, everyone is here. I can't believe that my kidnapper called in my calvary. Tears cloud my eyes as I rush over to Aiden and my babies. I hug them as tightly to me as I can. "I can't believe he called you. He said he would. He did." I mumble into Aiden's chest. The twins begin to stir and whine a little because I'm squishing them. One by One my family passes the twins around. Aiden and I look on with pride. "So, what's their names? Remi refused to tell us until you got here." Kallista asks Aiden bouncing on the balls of her feet. She's dying to take my son away from his father again. "Ashton Romie Ramos and AshLynn Yanessa Ramos." Aiden says finally passing Ashton back around the room."Those are perfect names." My father beams with pride as he holds his first grandchild. AshLynn squirms and we all hear a noise and my father cringes. "I think she left her father a surprise." Kieran says handing my daughter to her father. Aiden looks lost as hell. I b
It's been hours since Remi and the others went missing. My phone keeps vibrating in my pocket. When I finially pull it out to check it; it's a number I don't recognize. "This is Aiden. Speak." I growl into the phone not at all worried about how I might come across to the person on the opposite end of the line. "Aiden, it's Vlad. We need to talk. It's about our mate. Remington." "She's mine! Only mine!" I growl into the phone. "No she's not. I've gotten her somewhere safe. The twins are safe. At least for now. There's a traitor walking among you. He has Blaze. I got to the scene just in time to get our mate and the other females to safety. They're all here. I'm sending you the address. Bring just the ones you know beyond a shadow of doubt that you can trust. I'll explain everything once you get here." Vlad hangs up leaving me speachless for a moment. I snap my head up looking at everyone in the room. No one here would dare to double cross me and Remi. Flashes of a soft pale yellow
I'm in the middle of a meeting with a vendor for 318 when a flash of images fills my mind. Gunner and Weston rush into the office shooing the two males from the booze delievery company out of the room. "Blaze and Kane's vehicle was found on the side of the road smashed to pieces. No sign of either one of them. Tianna's car was found a few feet away down the small ravine. We gotta go Aiden." Gunner says helping me out of the chair. "Remi was in labor. Where's Remi, Tianna, and Kallista?" I ask forcing myself to finally move. "They were taken. We think Blaze and Kane are on their trail. We don't have all the answers. Xavier and Skullz are at the scene now. Come on! We're going to catch the fuckers scent and go after them." Weston says. I point over at my truck and throw Gunner my keys. It feels a little awkward to have him here. But since Doc and Waylon got him from under that spell Mace casted; he's been trying to do everything he can to make up for the damage he feels he caused. D
Kallista calls Aiden, but doesn't get an answer. I continue to do breathing exercises. "Where's your go bag?" I point to the bag next to the couch in the little sitting room of our suite. Kallista helps me waddle across the room. I have another stabbing pain in my vag and stop walking. I cross my legs and pray the twins don't fall out. "I know it has to hurt. But we have to move. I called Dr. Williams. She knows we're on our way." I nod my head at Tianna, but the pain is too much. Blaze flashes into the room and picks me up. He carries me down the stairs through the house to the garage and puts me into Tianna's car. He pushes the seat all the way back; then leans the back of the seat as far back as it will go. "Follow me. Kallista, keep calling Aiden and Xavier. One of them has to answer. I'll call Kieran. Remi, keep doing your breathing exercises." We all nod our heads and he closes the door. We follow behind his SUV. We're just past the clubhouse when a huge truck crosses over in
The day after my zombie moment is peaceful. Tianna, Kallista, and Aiden's sister, Trinity all come over to keep me company while Aiden works. I feel horrible about all the time and hours he puts in between the mechanic shop ran by the hellhounds and 318. I try to keep in touch with Shade as much as possible to see how things are running and to help out as much as I can. She's training someone to take over for her because she is also going to have to leave in a few weeks. Aiden tells me he has everything under control, but I still worry about my business going up in smoke. I'm about to fall asleep during movie number three when I hear Aiden's heavy foot steps stomping up the stairs. Instead of turning to come to our room he heads towards the nursery. I realize the banging and racket coming from that side of the house has stopped. When I move to sit up all three of the females laying in my bed jump up. "What's up? What's wrong?" They yawn and stretch their sleeping asses out. "Nothin
The grumpy old fae answers on the first ring. "What now Aiden? You have my ass so busy I had to hire another crew to take on some of my other clients." Amos grumbles. But if I say I'm hiring someone else for a job; he bitches my ass out and insists he's the one doing it. "I need the twins' nursery done. Like yesterday." Amos huffs and puffs. I hear him whistle as he flips through the pages of his daily planner. He grunts acting as if he will be too busy. I know what he's doing. He wants more pay for the perfection and rush job only he can do. "I'll pay you double the agreed upon price. Remi, could have the twins any day now. We need it done and fast. And we both know; only you can do what we want done as fast as we need." I listen to him tapping his fingers on his desk. "You don't have to pay me double. Just the original quote plus half that. I'm fae. We both know I can have that nursery done with the snap of my fingers. Besides you and Remi are good people. I'm only gonna cut yo
"Okay, Remi. Tell me what's going on." Dr. Williams says as she pulls out a few hand held machines, a measuring tape and her stethoscope. She lays them on the bed as I explain what's going on. "I started having pains. They're not contractions because they're sparatic. They don't last long. What hurts the most is; it feels like the twins are about to come falling out my hooha." I pant as I continue to try and breathe through the pain in my vag. Dr. Williams lifts my shirt and tucks it under my tits. She measures me, takes my blood pressure then heads back to her bag. Sitting beside me on the bed she squirts some gel on my stomach and begins using a probe wand looking thing on my stomach. When the sound of my baby's heartbeat fills the air I know what this machine is for. "Ordinarily, I'd do this down at the office. However, since we're doing a house call today. I'm going to have to do it here. Remi, I need you to remove your pants and panties. I'm going to check to see if you're dia
