~Livia’s Point of View~ I had just showered the wolf and sex smell off of myself, much to my dismay. I couldn’t understand how it had only been a few days of this crazy ass tournament. A few days of knowing Tyson, a few days that seemed like eternity. I sigh to myself just as there is a knock on the door. I shoot up, just wearing a barely thigh length light blue babydoll nightie, as I was certainly not expecting company. The clock on the nightstand reads 12:20am. I grab my robe and tiptoe to the door. I take a deep breath … Orion. I cock my head to the side, curious. I open the door and peek out. “Sorry to bug you, but I saw the light was still on,” he says, giving me his best beach boy smile. I open the door the rest of the way and smile back. Orion was an anomaly in the tournament. He hadn’t ever given me a creepy vibe, he was unbelievably good looking and just seemed like a fun person to be around. I had already decided I would certainly be open and give him a fair shake. “It
~River’s Point of View~ “Don’t you think if we somehow figure out how to open it that the attorney will know,” I ask. Angel gives me a sideways glance. Come on, it's a legit question. “Yeah, you’re probably right,” she admits, examining the box. It wasn’t hard for Angel and Dina to find the box in the house, it was giving off whatever magic vibes enchanted things give off. Plus, it was actually kind of … in an obvious place. If one of the things Gunner valued the most was Tyra, then he would keep it as close to her as possible. In her bedroom, she had a large bed frame with drawers underneath and when we removed one of the drawers, the box was behind it. Godfrey had almost just destroyed the whole bed but we convinced him to take a more gentle approach. “I’ve never been more curious about something, “ Angel says. “It’s probably some damn rocks,” Lilly whines, putting some cookies down on the table. Once we found the magic box we brought it back to our house. Lilly wasn’t tot
~Livia’s Point of View~ Everyday of this tournament I have spent confused, lost and nervous as hell over what the future would bring. But suddenly, knowing Tyson was my fated mate and putting so much of this awkward as fuck week together in my mind … I wasn’t as scared. For the briefest of moments, I had real hope for my future. That was until Orion made it clear that he wasn’t giving up. He wasn’t backing down. All this time I thought Shadrick was the one I needed to fear the most. Then seeing how Jasper was hell bent on owning me, controlling me … it was obvious he wasn’t letting me go without a fight. I took Orion for kind, for being sensitive and laid back. But there’s not a doubt in my mind he’s just as diabolical as the others. He told me about Tyson for a reason. He wants me to pick him as my suitor, he wants me to let him win without having to fight. He’s signed a contract and he won’t be dissuaded. He wants a fair exchange but he thinks he can smooth it over with this kno
~Livia's Point of View~“Holy crap I LOVED IT! I LOVED IT,” I shout, a mere few inches from his face., as we walk off the first rideHe reaches for the bottom of my chin and holds it. Our eyes meet, even though it is still a bit dark I can see his perfect orbs beckoning me.“I knew it,” he grins.I want him to kiss me, desperately. It is literally just the perfect moment, and my heart is racing. I have absolutely no fucking clue what came over me next, but before I knew what I was doing I threw my arms around his neck and jumped at him. He meets my gesture, as if expecting it.Our lips come together softly with a small noise from our lips touching and separating from the kiss. His arms wrap around me and pull me close, deepening the kiss. He tastes like maple syrup, warm and yet soft. He smells so good, like the beach and like the sun.I pull back suddenly when I feel he's about to break out his tongue. Hardly an appropriate place and I also know I'm in danger of losing myself to him.
~Livia's Point of View~ 🌶︎🌶︎🌶︎🌶︎ Orion grins down at me as he moves my hair out of my face. I have a fine sheen of sweat covering me, and its tingling with the bit of ocean breeze. He kisses me lightly then pulls back and gets off the bed. He drops his shorts, revealing nothing underneath except … exactly what I need. What I’d been dying to see all day. He stared at me intensely. I immediately prop myself on my elbows and gawk at him. My mouth drops open, as if ready to take him. “Is this what you want baby,” he asks grabbing his cock and stroking himself. My eyes are completely stuck on him, on his hand moving over his thick shaft and stroking his tip with his thumb. I can’t do anything but get closer, I have to. My brain, my body simply won't let me do anything else. I swiftly get to my knees and move to the edge of the bed. “Touch me Livia,” he says, softly but commanding. I reach for his cock, its so hard, and his tip is already wet. I've simply never wanted to feel
~Livia's Point of View~ Orion and I had an insanely long shower, and I had another two orgasms. Needless to say he had to carry me to bed, and I’d never been more happily exhausted. But then, the morning comes. Reality. I awake with a jolt and its still dark. My mind is programmed to another time zone. I stare at Orion and I have a million thoughts at once. He could give me a good life. I could keep my job and he has his things that he likes to do and stay busy with … I didn’t even know outside of surfing what those things are but I'm sure he has them. However, in addition to me having Tyson, he would have other lovers. What if I saw him with another woman? What if he got another woman pregnant? Surely Tyson would want us to have children too. Goddess, what a mess! I stare at the ceiling as a breeze floats in through the door. Damn it, what did I do? I get out of bed very carefully and gather my things absentmindedly. I think about leaving him a note but decide against it. I h
~Tyson’s Point of View~I had stalked around Livia’s bedroom last night, but she didn’t come home and it devastated me. I went back to my room, pouting and hoping like hell she’d crawl in bed with me in the middle of the night. That she’d realize she slept better with me even if she didn’t know why.“Man I’m beat, it was a long day of finishing everything for Saturday,” Diego says, coming out of the shower.“Yeah, setting up the very ring where I may have to fight for my life, pretty fucked up,” I state, falling on my bed. “Oh shit dude, I didn’t even think of it like that, oh man,” Diego replies, sitting on his bed. I shake my head and throw my hands back against the bed.“I’m so lost bro. I feel like I should just tell her, it could end all this. Maybe she could teleport us somewhere else or something, we could run away, I have a little money. It could last us until I get a job,” I say, not even believing myself. I could never break my oath and leave the Shadows. They saved me, too
~Livia’s Point of View~“Darling it’s simply breathtaking,” mother says, eyeing my gown. My gaze falls over it, my hand over the fabric. I really, truly do wish I could appreciate it properly.“Of course it is. It’s a high end designer and probably costs enough to buy a normal person a very nice car, so of course it’s nice, but it’s not me. Not a bit,” I snap, annoyed.Now that I knew about Leonard, this dress has him written ALL over it. It literally hugs me everywhere and shoves my tits into my chin. A lot harder to appreciate when you feel like a stuffed sausage to be gawked at by one of your father's employees. “Well there’s no time to change it, unless you want to get married in a curtain,” mother laughs.That would be fine by me!“Like it freaking matters,” I mutter.“Hey come on, tell us how your dates have been,” Carrisa says, trying to lighten the mood. There's no fixing my face or my soul at this point.“I’d seriously rather not,” I snap, suddenly feeling very hot and itchy.

Ben and I had talked about doing an actual ceremony, for him it was an important thing. Tradition. He assured me ours would be completely different from anything he’d done before, that the vows he made with other women were somewhat superficial. More of a just a promise they could join his family and that he was willing to have a child with them. More like a guarantee he’d get to sleep with them on demand. I still struggled with that sometimes. How do I just walk around knowing that all these women had shared something so special and intimate with MY mate? It wasn’t like they were one night stands. I knew it would get better, the more distance I could put between them and him, but it still tugged at my self esteem. It was even harder trying to help care for Dorothy and Calista’s children, especially since even now they still asked for their moms. Sometimes they cried out for them at night. A few times we both slept in their rooms with them. Dorothy was banished for five years, then
~Meadow’s Point of View~ “Don’t you just feel like a cow sometimes,” I muttered, staring down at my adorable twin pups that seemed to drink me dry each time they nursed. They were so cute when they weren’t screaming. When they weren’t crapping their pants. When they were just … motionless. *My beautiful babies,* Coral cooed. “Yeah, but it's such an incredible bond,” Lilly said, as I turned to cut my eyes at her. She was four months pregnant with their sixth child and THANKFULLY it was only one baby this time. I thought they were all insane. I nearly said, ditch the crap woman, I’m a freaking milk cow, a spit up rag and yesterday Reed whizzed in my face while I was bathing him! “It gets easier, they’re only six weeks old,” Lilly said, running her finger over Hazel’s cheek. That’s what they ALL keep saying. “It gets easier.” Ah huh. *We have been getting more sleep lately,* Coral protested. Yeah right, like SHE ever gets up. Really, I had no right to complain, since I had mo
~Ben’s Point of View~ I barely had to wait another minute for several vampires to try swarming in. Oftentimes there are some creatures that will take on a not so common alliance for the sake of a power grab. I knew in my bones that’s all this was, unless this sister had taken one as a mate. While you’d expect Godfrey to perhaps have reservations about killing his own kind, he absolutely didn’t. As a councilor, he took that shit pretty seriously. If they wanted to fuck around and be stupid, test the waters well, that was on them. I stood still watching as numerous Shadow vampires, witches and fairies seemed to descend from nowhere, and I also recognized two of Godfrey’s children. He likely called them through their bond, but I was pleased for the support. I bounced around, throwing some fireballs from my fingertips and even conjuring up some various weapons such as shurikens or ninja stars, which were one of Godfrey’s favorite things. Only it was hard for him to touch silver unless
~Ben’s Point of View~ My heart swelled as I watched Daisy doting on Ash. Since their mating bond had been broken, they re-mated and apparently all that entailed. They were both like young teenagers in love all over again, and it was a sight to behold. I couldn’t wait to bring Meadow to see. They had been left alone for a couple of days, much like my little love and I. But now guests and well wishers poured in from all over the place. I could tell he was grateful and overwhelmed but the relief on everyone’s faces seemed to rejuvenate him. Shane and Godfrey had brought him up to speed on all that transpired and he kept insisting he was to blame in some fashion for not having a security detail and allowing himself to be caught. It was all we could do to reassure him that we were all to blame. I felt I was more so than anyone. Apparently this attack had been decades in the making. Ash was just an innocent bystander, but as not only a Shadow but also a councilor he knew the risks. Doe
~Meadow’s Point of View~ *Are you happy now,* I whined, scolding Coral. She didn’t answer, but instead played like she was asleep. Jerk! This was now the third night I’d been in the mountains with my mate, and while I’d felt the heat mostly subside a few hours ago we still couldn’t keep our hands off each other. I was beyond exhausted and not at all sure my legs would work. “And that position was called the hill but since I can levitate us I can actually hit you from underneath with a bit of acrobatics,” Ben said, running his fingers over my butt. I laid breathless, my head in a pillow, totally spent. I just wanted to sleep for a couple days, how the hell did he have this kind of stamina?? I mean he practically died just a few days ago! *Males always make an effort when it comes to their release,* Coral said, yawning. I had no doubt that was the absolute truth. When I had said I wanted to spend time in the coven’s library learning, I hadn’t realized I already had my own personal
~Ben’s Point of View~ It was obvious my little love wasn’t yet capable or able to express herself in words when it came to sex, but her body told a different story. The fact that Meadow was still so shy, so bashful could not have possibly been a bigger turn on. If I could get her to the point where she talked dirty to me, I’d be coming in my pants just by her words. All the women in my life had always been so daring, so sure of themselves. Her sweet innocence, her timid nature and her untouched body was all too much. I felt as though I had split personalities … on the one hand I wanted to be her fierce protector, the macho male who puffs out his chest and kills a spider in the bathroom just to be her hero. Then fuck her relentlessly to further stake my claim and beat my chest. On the other hand, I wanted to sing the songs of love and make sweet love to her for hours on end. I’d serenade her in Greek, as the words of love just sounded better than in English… I’d make her dinner and t
~Meadow’s Point of View~ “She must die, she’s lied to us all for decades. She’s kept you from Georgia, and Little Ben was just…” Sebastian trailed off. Coral shivered, remembering our brief time with the boy. He was so hopeful, curious. Yet he knew his days were numbered, how depressing. There was too much having us all on edge, especially since we were waiting for word about my father. Clearly I didn’t have the same attachment to Athena as everyone else, as her own son would. But if this was how he felt about it… Our eyes darted to Ben. “Fifty years of banishment, then we reconsider. Give her the same courtesy she gave to me,” he finally said. Numerous others murmured in agreement. “On the matter of Georgia I’m not as easily able to decide. We’re going to give her a chance to prove herself. I believe we define ourselves on the decisions we make and while some … have to be made in the blink of an eye, they can still very much have very real consequences. Georgia has lost, she ha
~Ben’s Point of View~ I was certain I’d missed a hell of a lot while I was knocked out, but there was no time for trips down memory lane. No time to address the pain that still wracked my body. The reek of the venom that was still radiating from my pores. The fact that my mate smells of pure arousal, and was laying on top of me in her panties with my blood on her hands. Definitely need more of an explaination on that. Everyone is depending on me, I have to do this. It has to work. I briefly said a prayer to the Goddess that we often ask her to pass on to through our ancestors. To draw on their power when we need it. Then I began the spell as I recalled it, hoping like hell it worked. Katrina and Cleo came to either side of me, and we locked arms. Sebastian should be here, even Athena’s strength would be good. But no time now. Just as I had that thought Georgia appeared in front of me and got between Katrina and I. Her scent immediately calmed me, it was what helped my younger self
