I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would love to read your comments.
Sebastian sat down next to me and wrapped me in his arms. He put his nose in my neck, inhaling my scent to calm his tiger, “Love, I could never reject you. I was growling because of what happened to you. Carrie explained to me how severe your trauma was. You downplayed it for my benefit, didn’t you?” I nodded slightly as I looked down at the floor. He raised my chin with one finger and looked me in the eyes, “Don’t do that. I want to know everything about you. Nothing about you is minor to me. Everything is important. Okay?” I nodded, “Okay, but that is honestly the worst of me. There were times, while I was growing up, when kids at school would try to bully me, but I always stopped it really quickly by kicking their asses once and they didn’t try it anymore. The guy who kidnapped me, Dune, was one of them. My brothers got ahold of him, and then got him kicked out of our school for good. That was when we were only five or six. I never thought he would keep me in mind all those years wi
When I was done getting everything I needed out of the freezer, we walked back into the kitchen. I put everything for tomorrow in the refrigerator, grabbed a blackberry muffin for myself them handed one to Sebastian. I asked, “Do you think this spell will work?” He replied, “I hope it does. You look like you really need some sleep soon.” I nodded, “I do. I feel like the walking dead.” I looked out the window and saw, literally, hundreds of dark witches and demons surrounding the house, chanting a spell. They were only at it for ten minutes when a group of twenty dark warlocks walked out of different rooms of the house and approached me. One man stepped forward and my mate took a protective stance in front of me. I put my hand on Sebastian’s arm, “Mate, I know your tiger wants to protect, but they want to talk to me. Just stay close to me, okay?” Sebastian moved behind me and picked me up to carry me bridal style. I laughed, “I can’t talk to them like this. Just put me down and put your
I mind linked my dad, “Dad, I need you in my room like, yesterday.” I heard my dad running at full speed and turning into my room, “Wha-“ then he started growling. Apparently, he saw Remus before he could finish that sentence. Dad suggested, “He knows he can’t get in here now. Why don’t you and Bridget go out there together?” Sebastian growled, “I don’t like the idea of putting my mate outside and using her as bait.” Dad shrugged, “Sebastian, we need to do something to make sure he stays long enough to get rid of him for good.” Sebastian growled, “I want to be the one to make this asshole suffer. I want the ladies protected. I do not want him to get his paws on her.” Dad replied, “I wouldn’t have it any other way. We will make sure he can’t teleport them or hurt them.” I nodded, “Let’s do it.” We all walked down to the conference room and almost everyone had gone home, now that the worst of the threat is exterminated. Now, we just need to deal with this one threat. My grandparents were
I put my hand on Sebastian’s chest as Bridget does the same thing to Jamie at the same time. I whispered to Sebastian, “He’s trying to get you mad. Don’t. Let me deal with this.” Bridget and I approach him at the same time as Bridget smiled, “What makes you think that? You don’t think that maybe my trust in the mate bond is shit because of you and your freak son?” Remus growled, “Has no one ever taught you not to speak ill of the dead?” I sighed, “I guess now you know how I’m going to talk about you after you are dead. Trust me. You will be dead soon.” He furrowed his brow, “Which one of you is Adele?” We both laughed and Bridget smiled, “I have a perfect body double; don’t I?” He nodded, “You even smell the same. Oh well, I guess that means we will have to take you both and force the truth out of you.” I laughed, “Good luck with that.” Just then, four men came out of the wood line and ran to us with blackout hoods. I looked at them and laughed, “You are too funny if you think is goi
We let Remus stay in the dungeon overnight, and I just enjoyed being with my mate. My real mate. There is no way this bond is a spell. Even my wolf and bear agree. After the meeting, I asked mom and dad to stay in the room after everyone else was gone. Dad asked, “What’s wrong, baby girl?” I smiled, “Absolutely nothing, now. I just have a question for you both.” Mom furrowed her brow, “What is it?” I asked, “Can Sebastian and I build a house on your property? I know he already has a house, but we both agreed that we should live close to you so that I can help you. Especially until you get your kidney. Once you are totally healed, we can move into his house, if we want to. He is fine with either place.” Dad smiled, “I would appreciate that a lot.” Sebastian smiled, “Family helps family. That’s the way it should always be. We both believe in that.” Dad nodded, “Thank you.” Mom hugged Sebastian, “You are so good for my daughter. Thank you.” Sebastian answered, “She makes me want to be a b
When we walked into Sebastian’s garage, I was shocked to see a Black Mercedes – Benz GLS and a Royal Blue Dodge Charger, along with a Royal Blue Harley. I smiled, “That is a sweet motorcycle. I just have one question.” He asked, “What would that be?” I gave him my best puppy eyes and asked, “Can I drive the Charger?” He laughed, “Can you drive a standard transmission?” I nodded, “Yes I can.” He smiled, “I will get the keys for you. Actually, it has a push button start, but you have to have the key fob close.” He walked into the house and handed the key fob to me. He smiled, “Just put it in the ash tray. We can take it in our house when we get home.” I smiled, “You love saying ‘our house’ just as much as I do. Don’t you?” He grinned, “I do.” As we drove to our house, I had to admit, I really loved the Charger. It definitely rides so smoothly and it’s got some power. I thought as I drove, “What a way to have a four-door car and still look sporty!” Before we got to the house, my cell pho
The next morning, I made a big breakfast for Sebastian, before he even woke up. It wasn’t until the coffee could be smelled from upstairs that he walked downstairs. He must have already taken a shower, because he was dressed in black jeans with a pale blue button up shirt. I smiled, “Good morning? Are you ready to kick a dark warlock king’s ass today? I know I am. I want to know, for a fact, that he is gone.” Sebastian put his arms around me, “Of course, my love. I would do anything to make you feel safe.” I smiled, “You are too sweet. Now, let’s eat breakfast.” We sat at the table and started eating as Sebastian took a bite of a biscuit. As he held it up, he moaned, “These are so fluffy! Did you make these fresh?” I shrugged, “I borrowed the ingredients from mom last night. I’m glad you like them.” Apparently, he liked everything else I made too, because he hummed and kept saying, “So good,” all the way through it. I was laughing and shaking my head at him. When I started clearing the
We walked up to the main castle entrance, then to the sitting room where my Grandma Zara was sitting. I hugged her and introduced Sebastian, “Queen Zara, this is Prince Sebastian of the Southern Werecat Kingdom.” My grandma hugged him, “Oh, it’s so good to meet my granddaughter’s real mate! I have already been told so much about you. Thank you for fighting for my granddaughter before you even knew her.” I laughed, “Grandma, really?” Sebastian took my hand and squeezed for reassurance, “I was not about to risk losing my mate before I got to know her. I also wouldn’t have known what a capable fighter she is.” I smiled, “Anyway, I would like for him to meet grandpa also. Do you know where he is?” She smiled, “He’s on his way here. Please, have a seat. Let’s visit.” I laughed, “We can visit for a bit, but we still have a lot of grocery shopping to do and I would like to show him our wing of the castle.” She smiled, “You are certainly welcome to do that.” Grandpa walked in and Sebastian ro
