Tomorrow will be another crossover. What do you think of Reyes?
After getting Rich’s trial date moved up, I get a mind link from Xander asking me to join him and Maeve in the bedroom he put her in. ‘Maeve needs clothes. We didn’t have a chance to get any because we were attacked by some witchy goons at her shop,’ Xander says. ‘Is she hurt? Are you?’ I ask, moving faster down the hall. ‘No, we’re both fine,’ he says, and even in the mind link I can hear him sigh. ‘Xander?’ I ask as I knock on the door. ‘Later,’ he says and I walk into the bedroom. “Hi Maeve. Xander said you need some clothes and some toiletries. I wanted to get your sizes and see if there is anything in particular you want or need.” “You don’t need to get me anything. I’ll be fine,” she says, looking at Xander. “I won’t be here long, right?” Xander doesn’t answer her, he just walks out of the room. He’s struggling with their mate bond. That, I understand, so I’ll help him and her as much as I can. When I turn back to her, Maeve is watching me. “You were attacked?” I ask.
I’ve been running non-stop for two days. I’m exhausted and I know that once I see Leana, I’ll have to be careful. I’m depleted now and I’ll want her blood, but right now, she needs me and I need to face my father. If he has done anything to hurt her, I’ll make sure that he dies slowly, so slowly that it takes a millennia for him to finally meet his maker. As I get to the city, I lift my nose in the air. Since I know what I’m looking for, I lock in on Leana’s scent quickly, following it toward the council. I smell my father’s scent close to hers and I begin to run faster, needing to make sure that she’s okay. As I continue to run, I catch the scent of several Alphas, multiple Guardians, and a couple of fae. When I get closer, I hear a woman speaking. “It seems to me that the problem here isn’t Alpha Richard, but the members of this council that have sat in their high seats too long. You have forgotten what the role of this council is and that you should be using your time and energy
We’re both still panting when Drake first pulls his fangs out of my neck and then slides his still hard length out of me. He licks my neck, pulling back to watch it heal before leaning in to tenderly kiss my lips. I can taste my blood in his mouth while he slowly kisses me, his tongue leisurely exploring my mouth, before standing up and helping me to get to my feet. “Feel better?” I ask him. “Much. You are too good to me.” “Not at all. You are my mate, it’s my job to feed you,” I say smiling. “It’s not your job,” he starts to say, but I put my finger to his lips. “Have you not caught deer for me? Gone to a restaurant and sat with me while I eat food that you don’t eat? It’s no different.” “It’s different.” “Not to me. To me, that’s what mates do, and if you’re trying to make me angry so we don’t complete our mate bond tonight, it’s not going to work. Kella is beyond ready to put her mark on you. Tonight,” I say as she pushes forward. “There’s my other mate,” he says smiling an
My mate has accepted me and I’m done holding back. She’s right, if she was made for me, then she can handle anything and everything I give her. I knew she’d be desperate for an orgasm by the time I let her come and the mix of her orgasm on her tongue and her blood in my mouth was such an exquisite taste that I spent my time, forcing her to stay at her high while I enjoyed myself. Now, however, it’s time for me to put my mark on the spot where werewolves will recognize that my mate is taken, that she is mine. As I thrust, hard and fast inside my mate, I can feel her body clamping down on me. Nothing in my life has ever felt so amazing as the feeling of Leana’s body, responding to me being inside her, the feel of her muscles contracting around me as I continue my thrusts. She arches her back, throwing her head back, opening her throat to me. The blood pulsing in her veins scents the air with her wild, floral scent flooding my senses and overwhelming me. My fangs extend and I growl wi
I was terrified when Drake basically passed out on me. At first, both Kella and I had been overwhelmed with the orgasms that just continued to get stronger and stronger until it felt like my body exploded when his fangs sank into my marking spot. The feeling only intensified as his thick venom began flowing into my system. Then, Kella sank her canines into his neck, marking him as ours. I had expected his blood to taste bad, but it hadn’t. Whether it was because his blood was mingled with mine, or because the mate bond is just that incredible, I don’t know or care. His blood in our mouth had tasted good and Kella had happily started flooding his body with our much thinner venom. It wasn’t until his body had gone limp on top of mine that I’d realized something was wrong. Kella had pulled her canines out of his neck, and I’d pushed Drake onto his back, calling his name. He had stared, lifeless, up at the ceiling for what seemed like an eternity. I had been terrified that our marking,
We have four days to get information about my father before Leana has to meet with her family and the other Guardians. Now, it’s not just about intel for us and our war, it’s also necessary for the Guardians to find out who is truly against them. Because I can now walk in the daylight with no sensitivity to the sun thanks to my amazing mate, we decide to leave early in the morning. Not only will the vampires not be out during the day, but they will most likely still be sleeping off the remnants of last night’s party when we arrive tomorrow. We run all day, and overnight I carry my mate so she can sleep. We arrive the next morning, early and after ensuring that Leana is fed and ready to go, we make our way to my father's clan lands. The first thing both of us notice is that the humans are no longer guarding my father’s perimeter. Leana stops, sniffing the air and looking around. “There are no auras. What happened to the humans?” she asks. “If I had to guess, I’d say they became food
We only had one more day to watch the castle after listening in on King Raphael’s and King Lance’s conversations; and during that time, I had to catch a few hours sleep. However, while I was awake, Drake and I realized why there were so many extra vampires in the castle. Unbeknownst to King Lance, King Raphael is bringing vampires in. That’s why he disabled the cameras and killed the humans. “Are you going to warn your father?” I ask Drake as we get ready for me to head to Shadow Falls. That’s where the Guardians are meeting. “No, he made his bed, he can lie in it. If they have their own war, that’s fewer vampires for you and I to fight,” he says. “Are you worried that we might need more help? There are other Guardians. I can recruit some help for us while I’m in the packs,” I tell him. “Roughly three hundred and fifty vampires against the two of us. And that’s today. Who knows how many more King Raphael will bring in. Some will be lost if they battle, but that may or may not happ
After leaving Leana, I expected to feel the darkness closing in, but the darkness never came. I miss my mates, I want to return to them, but there’s no darkness inside me. None. When I return home, I search for where Ennata might be, marking off the areas where King Raphael and my father said they’d searched and hadn’t found her. As I look at the map, I begin to see a pattern developing. They may not realize it, but between the two of them, they’re narrowing my search to the north and west of here. There’s another city in that direction, one that I think has the offices where Leana’s family maintains a business. Maybe when Leana comes back, and we deal with my father, we can start there. It’s mid-afternoon when my phone rings. I'm excited, hoping it's Leana telling me she's coming home tonight, but instead of Leana, I see that it's Prince Reyes calling. “Prince Reyes, is everything okay?” I ask. His call is unexpected. “Yes and no. Currently, everything is well, but my father wante
