[Sam’s POV]When we pulled up to the mansion Stefan telepathically informed me that there was an attack in one of the small villages closest to my border. I sent him and Vinny to stay with Gia and Dante to keep them safe. Max also mind-linked me and said the same thing happened near his and Damen’s borders as well. This must be a coordinated attack. After making sure Gia and Dante got inside safely, Damen sat in the driver’s seat, and we drove down a short way to let Max out so that he could shift and run to investigate near his border. We took the link road, that runs in a circle through each of our territories. I got out of the car near my border and ran to meet up with some of my warriors who cleared the area. Everyone was put on lockdown until we make sure that all areas are safe. The leader of the nearby village met with me on his side of the border. The villages are small and consist mainly of farmers and craftspeople. The villages are sovereign territories, yet our lands pro
[Josiah’s POV] Kali was meticulous in planning his attacks to stay under the radar of supernatural leaders and councils of North America. During our time with him, we learned that he had already built a base of operations in Minnesota, as he sensed the presence of an important being there that he was hunting.Chelsea and I were required to lure and capture weak-minded beings to seek information on the special being and to build and feed his army. Initially, we were ordered to go on missions together. However, during a mission in Ohio, we made the mistake of trying to escape and for our punishment, torture was not enough.We were tortured in his mobile psycho chamber, which he kept in an RV that was ever present in his line of vehicles that we all traveled with. Afterward, as we lay at his feet bloodied and broken, he instructed that we were to be separated during missions.Chelsea would have to steal mates of high interest to Kali, by luring them with her beauty and then bringing the
[Gia’s POV] The attacks on the villages outside our borders pushed the start of the ceremony back a few hours. The moon will be opposite of the sun around midnight, so we still have time to make the most of our plans. Dante is in with Jackson and some helpers to get him ready in his little tuxedo. Jace escorted me to my and my mates’ room, where several women were waiting to help me get ready. After a relaxing bath in essential oils and rose petals, I finished getting ready before heading into our room.The room was lined up with the beautiful dresses we chose and one of the ladies helping me had me sit down to do my hair, while another beautiful she-wolf did my makeup for me. Normally, I do not wear makeup, but with this being a special occasion, I am willing to go out in style for my mates. My mind keeps racing back to the attacks though, and the potential for Kali to be behind them, but why would he order attacks on the villages, then retreat? What is he planning? If it was a pl
[Gia’s POV] These two handsome gentlemen and I reached the back patio of our home. The door frame is lit up with warm fairy lights and bouquets of white roses in vases lined up outside the door.We walked under the door threshold, and I was struck by the most fantastic scene. Candles, fairy lights, and hundreds of bouquets in shades of whites, blues, and purples lined up a pathway, which had a floral archway above it, and led to my three mates standing on a half-moon-shaped stage.Never in all my life had I imagined I would ever get married like this, nor could I have pictured it so perfectly, as they had created for me. I have spent my life waiting for the other shoe to drop, living in survival mode, and often being made to feel like less than others.Yet, my mates, my guards, and all the people who have filled the hundreds of seats on either side of the aisle are here for them and me. My heart feels full, but my mind still worries this is all a dream.Holding back the tears that th
[Gia’s POV]It has been the most magical night! I am married to the three most wonderful men I have ever met. We danced for an hour together, before I was ready to retire for the night.Sam carried a very sleepy Dante up to his room and the four of us tucked him in and kissed his adorable forehead as he drifted off to dreamland. Jace and Jason both made a vow to me to protect me with their lives, then they went off to their rooms. Max carried me over the threshold of our suite door. Sam put on a warm bath in the huge tub, while Damen unzipped my dress. It is so late, but I will not spoil this beautiful night with sleep, besides my mates are all creatures of the night, I thought to myself with an inner giggle.Damen and Max disappeared through a door in our suite that I have not ventured through yet, while Sam left sparks on my body as he gently bathed me. After the bath, he told me to meet him by the door that Max and Damen went in through. I was so excited about the surprise and wan
[Gia’s POV]Feeling the flogger sweep away from my behind, I hold my breath in anticipation of what Damen is about to do to me. First, I hear it, then I feel it slap against my behind. The sensation of pain mixed with pleasure causes my hips to buck forward and my vaginal walls to clench.Damen whips my derriere several times and each time my desire races to the forefront. When I open my eyes, I see Max licking his lips and Sam rubbing his bulge through his satin pants. While I am enjoying the view of my other two mates, Damen brings the flogger between my cheeks, and I feel it hit my labia. The sensation is like nothing I have ever felt, and a muffled scream of pleasure tears through the binding on my mouth. As I am practically already on the verge of an orgasm, Damen walks around to my front side, and brushes the flogger against my nipples, causing even more ripples of pleasure to fill me.Not knowing how much more I can take from not having him inside of me, I give him a pleading
[Max’s POV]Damen went to light the candles in the red room bathroom and got the new tub ready for us. We had our crew put in a large drop tub made of amethyst and rose quartz geodes, as we know how much Gia loves them.They did an amazing job. The walls in the room are painted in deep shades of purple with black accents. She still does not know this yet, but there is nothing in this world we would not do for her and our son. We knew when we met her that she has been through hell and back so many times, and that we would need to exercise large amounts of patience with her trusting us.Our only two worries right now are Kali and that she is human. Losing her would be the complete and total destruction of each of us.Closing the gap between her lying her arms and head on Sam’s chest and shoulders and myself, I give Sam a soft nudge, and he helps to place her in my arms. We might have pushed her a bit far tonight.She looks so exhausted. Carrying her to the tub, the smell of the rose a
[Gia’s POV]After a relaxing breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and fruit, we decided to spend the day walking around the three beautiful cities. Dante got to make so many new friends.He loved spending time with the fae children. Some have wings and he became so fascinated with the realization that so many beautiful beings inhabit this Earth as we do.While the children played tag in one of the parks, I spent time getting to know our amazing neighbors and people. A group of older women showed me how to make pottery with them, we joked and laughed and my first vase turned out so awful, but it was so much fun.We visited the training grounds and watched the many warriors do hand-to-hand combat. Each of my mates’ warriors learns many martial arts techniques alongside their own special abilities.I suggested to them that we create a large central training center where the warriors of each city can go to cross-train with different beings. Normally, in the human world, any ideas I would have wou
