"... You love the power that I would give you...” “No… Well, maybe that was what I originally wanted, but now…” Kastrath places his hands on the upper parts of my arms and turns me around, so I am now looking at him. For someone as old as he is, he does look rather handsome. He then moves one of his hands to my cheek and, using his hold there, tilts my head up and steps in that little closer, leaning down until his lips are just millimetres from mine before he continues. “After spending time with you, in your dreams, and when I see and touch you like this, I fall more and more for you.” He then closes that small gap and presses his lips to mine. I don’t return the kiss, however; I don’t struggle or pull away from him, either. I feel as he slides his other hand around my waist, pulling me tight into his body; I lift my hands and place them on his chest as he then slightly pulls back from his kiss and whispers against my lips. “All it takes is just one word. Just one small word and
“Lorelei, I’m sorry. I know that just saying I’m sorry isn’t enough, and neither is just saying that I love you just as much as I love Yasmine and Zelda.” I want to push him away, but the venom he injected into my body is still making its way through my system and making it so that I can barely move. I lower my eyes from his glowing ones and whisper, “No, you don’t, you never have… You share pleasure with them, but never me.” “I have shared pleasure with you…” I manage to find enough strength against the venom and lift my hand. I place it on his chest. I still can’t push him away as I want to, especially as I say, “You only have because I have stepped up with Yasmine. The main one was during our first power sharing and I knew that you needed me. The next time was when I was telling you about Queen Margaret and that I was her panther. If Yasmine hadn’t already been sitting on you with your cock inside us, you probably wouldn’t have…
I feel as he reaches his release and his wolf's cock swells; he growls low and I whimper as I feel something latch onto the inside of me. I feel as he pulses inside me. I go to move, but then let out a soft whimper before I hear him in my head.“Don’t move.” “Why not?” “I’m sorry, it usually only happens in this form and I was sure that it would only do it with Zelda, and then that is only when she is in heat, but my body has connected itself to you. We will have to wait until it calms and releases you, or we can do a lot of damage by removing it before it's ready.” “So, what do we do now?” “We wait.” He slowly releases his grip on my neck and licks the fur there before then rubbing his neck and head over and around the back of my neck and everywhere he can reach without moving too much as when he or I move it pulls and hurts something inside me.However, over the time that we wait, I don’t miss that he occasionally moves, making him growl low as his wolf's cock pulse as he relea
Zachariah then disappears from behind me as I open the top drawer and pull out some panties, slipping them on before pulling out a matching bra and slipping that on too. I then open the next drawer but close it again and moving to the next drawer, I smile as I then pull out a dark black pair of jeans and slip them on. I then move down the side of the closet and find a nice plain blouse hanging in-amongst the really expensive and extravagant ones. I slip it on and then look around the closet. I frown when I don’t see Zachariah and make my way out into the bedroom. I stop in my tracks as Zachariah steps out of the bathroom. I let my eyes travel up and down his body. I keep forgetting just how stunningly handsome he is even when he is dressed in a casual suit like the one he is in. Even though seeing him in his jeans and shirt is even better. I take a sharp breath in when I reach his eyes and see them flicker and know that he is probably thinking the same
I look around the room at the pack that is in the room casting its vote. Most of them have stopped and are looking at me and Zachariah. Zachariah follows my gaze as it passes over the room. He smiles, turns so that he is now facing the room and says,“If you will excuse us, but family is calling. Please continue to cast your votes.”When he turns back to me, I look at him with wide eyes and whisper, shocked,“But don’t we have to be here for this?”“Technically, yes, but we haven’t seen much of Darius since we have been here, and I can feel that being with him is what you need, so that is what we will do. We can count and look at the votes tomorrow.”Then, without another word, he steps up to me, grabs me around the waist, throws me over his shoulder and then walks out of the throne room. I lift my head just as he steps out of the doors to see Alpha Clive with a smirk on his face before he turns his attention back to his pack and the voting going on around him. True to his word, Zach
As Zachariah talks to Jasper and the other Alpha, I walk up to Mary and give her a hug. When she pulls back, she steps to the side. With her arm around my waist, she says, “Yasmine, I would like to introduce you to Alpha Isaac's mates, Leah and Nyla.” “It’s nice to meet you both.” They both bow and then I think it's Nyla who steps a little closer and places her hand on mine as she whispers, “I am glad that Alpha Zachariah found you. He deserves to be happy, because if it wasn’t for him, then I wouldn’t have met my mate or found my sister…” I feel as all her walls drop and she opens herself up, and just as Darius said I can’t control it as my power flows from me into her and I see everything that was her life, I can’t stop the tears that fill my eyes and then slide down my cheeks at all the suffering she went through at the hands of Valentino. As with Alpha Clive, Zachariah seems to be standing behind me when my power returns to me and I sway on my feet. Zachariah wraps his arms a
I feel the bed dip and then feel his fingers lightly touch under my chin. He applies a little pressure, making me lift my head and look at him. Tears sting my eyes and one seems to escape. He then moves his hand to my cheek and wipes away the tear as he whispers,“It’s okay… Yasmine, it is a natural response. We didn’t get to spend the time we should have with them once they were born. So your protective instincts to do with them will be heightened for a little while.”I then snap my eyes to the door once more as there is a knock. Zachariah gives me a kiss on the cheek and then gets off the bed. As he leaves the room, he says,“Relax, I’ve got this. You lay down with our pups.”He closes the doors behind him and I do as he says and I lie down, wrapping my arms around my pups. I take a deep breath of their scents and then drift off into an exhausted sleep.**Dream** I look like a
I then place a soft kiss on his forehead as he steps back and into Summer's arms. She gets to her feet and bows before her and the others disappear and enter the throne room from another door. I stand up straight and take a deep breath before giving a slight nod to the two warriors that are once again standing guard at the doors.I hear the music as the doors open stop and the Royal announcement chimes ring out I take a step and enter the room and freeze just inside the door, I still hate being the centre of attention as everyone steps aside and bows, revealing a very handsome Zachariah standing in the middle of the room wearing a traditional Royal black tux. He smiles at me and opens our private link,“Yasmine, look at me and only at me. Remember…” With his voice in my head, I smile as a quick flash of the last time we did something like this and he had asked me in front of the whole pack to be his. I walk slowly toward him
>YASMINE“So this is what it feels like to die… I thought it would have hurt more…” “But we aren’t truly dead, are we?” Zelda asks. “Yes, but No… We are in the in-between. The nothingness between life and death.” Lorelei answers. “So, how long we here for?” I ask, looking around at the endless darkness around us. “We are being held to our body through the power of the ancient dagger. So as long as nothing has happened to Zachariah, then we will return to our body once he removes the dagger and Summer performs the resurrection ritual...” “What happens if something has happened to Zachariah and he can’t remove the dagger and someone else does?” Zelda asks, getting more worried. “I don’t know and I hope that we never find out…” Lorelei says, finally not having the answer. “You have nothing to worry about, my daughter. Everything is as it should be. You can and will return to your loved ones soon.” I turn in the dark and just manage to spot the blue glow as it fades into the dar
The Final Battle Continues... She was off limits; she was the Masters; she was Kastrath's. The general forced the lower Demon back to their world as he landed and then took his place lying over the beautiful female that will be his Queen. Yasmine struggles against the new Demon but stops rather quickly as she feels the difference between the Demon that was just holding her to the one that is now. She looks into his bright red eyes and he seems to smirk at her before leaning down and running his double-forked tongue over her skin. Yasmine shivers in disgust and starts struggling again as the general leans down and pushes his rough, demonic voice into her head, “You, my dear female, are lucky that you are already claimed for if you weren't your life from now on, would be a nightmare for you, however; pure hell for me…” Yasmine tenses as she is then hit by her gift opening and entering into the Demon on
The Final Battle Continues…Zachariah wakes slowly, tightening his arms and only finding air. he reaches his hand out to be met with cold sheets. He sits up and looks around. He smiles to himself when he sees the light on in the bathroom and hears the shower running.Zachariah slips out of bed and walks over to the bathroom with every intention of joining his mate. However, the scene in front of him as he enters has him bewildered.He moves quickly, stepping into the shower and crouching in front of her, first grabbing her hands, stopping her from doing any more damage to her skin. Then he places one hand on her cheek as he scans her body, assessing the damage, stopping at the two bites he can see on the top swell of both breasts.He lets out a low growl, bringing her eyes to his. Zachariah doesn't get to say or do anything as Yasmine's resolve breaks completely and she jumps at him, whimpering."I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I coul
The Final Battle Begins!THIRD PERSON… Kastrath paces in his castle's realm. He had watched Young Yasmine live and grow. He had been watching the panther shifter bloodline and had known who and what she was from the moment she was born and had been watching over her ever since.Kastrath watched as she grew into a headstrong, fiery female that would make him proud and would be worthy of standing next to him as his Queen.He had known the moment Queen Margaret and King Jason had summoned him, that deep into the future they would provide something he had been looking for…Something that he had been searching for a millennium.Now he knew that he had to wait until after her mate had changed her first, forthe real her to be released. However, Kastrath hadn't taken into account just how powerful the Moon Goddesses' mate bond would be between them o
I struggle against his hold, trying to push him away from me until he tightens his arms around me and whispers in a low tone,“Now, now, my Queen. I am only here to congratulate you and to remind you that you can avoid all the bloodshed to come if you will just say yes and come with me now…”Even with the anger and conviction in my voice, as I say,“Never…”He just laughs, then moves one of his hands to my cheek as he takes a deep breath and says,“Mmm… So much fire… Just a few more weeks, my Queen and you will be mine.”He then holds me tighter against him as he presses his lips to mine before disappearing into his tentacles of grey smoke, leaving me to collapse to my knees as the smoke disappears. Zachariah runs over to where I am and helps me back to my feet as he whispers,“What happened? One minute you were there dancing in my arms, the next you were gone
