I wiped the sweat from my brow and walked back across the gazebo to sit on the stone seat, what was left of it anyway. I had just sat down when I heard the faintest of hum's. I looked around, every muscle twitched, my powers had been bubbling and rippling through me this whole time but now they rose to the surface, which led me to believe a powerful evil was nearby.
My skin began to crackle and pop, the little bolts of electricity ran all over me, I felt my vein's run hot with power. I sent out my mental feeler's desperately searching for someone or something. But nothing was there. The hum continued to grow, until it was as loud as my truck.
All of a sudden the fallen corpse rose into the air. I watched horrified as I saw his bloodshot eye's once again fill with life. His broken, sunk in skull reset itself with a terrible, stomach turning, cracking sound. Then he came back to the earth. A smile spread wide across his face.
"What's the matter baby? You don't wanna play no more?"
"What the hell are you?!" I demanded as I stood and stepped aside.
"I'm your worst nightmare sweetheart." he spat.
No sooner had he spoke the word's he fired off some kind of energy bolt directly towards me, there was no time to react. I took the shot dead center. I went flying backwards, landing hard in a pile of rubble. I shook my head and pushed myself up to my feet.
Once I could stand I loosed the rage that I held deep inside. It came through my veins like a tidal wave. A release of power so strong I barely controlled it. Violet and Red sparks and bolts flew. I nailed the Pig, direct hit to the stomach.
Once again he didn't stay down long, when he stood, there wasn't even a scratch! No torn clothing, no bloodied body, nothing. I stumbled back in shock, the use of so much power had once again weakened me but I could still fight! Power or no power! I braced myself then lunged, firing off bolt after bolt. Nearly every shot hit it's mark and yet there he still stood. He laughed at my attempt's then simply lifted his hand into the air, causing me to go flying into a nearby wall.
I was dazed at this point. He has powers, but I have no idea where they came from. He has to have some kind of power source. He was a human the other night in the Parking Garage.
"I just have to find the power source and....wait a minute....."
Upon closer inspection, he was in fact wearing a necklace. And dangling off that necklace was a lion's head with two set rubies for eyes, I knew that amulet! I hadn't seen it because it had been beneath his shirt, I must have partially freed it, at least enough for me to see it, when I broke his skull.
That was the power source! I honed in on it, Yup. That thing was definitely putting out a lot of bad Ju-Ju. I knew it! But where had I seen that thing before? I know that I know that lions head from somewhere. Before I could think of a plan of attack he raised his hand again and this time I slammed down onto the altar at the far end of the garden. He was on me in a flash, I could once again feel the bulge in his pant's rubbing my thigh.
Ugh, how could he be turned on right now?! What kind of sick pervert would find this arousing? He looked down on me and smiled his vile, nasty smile. Dried blood soaked half his face from our previous encounter. I twisted and arched myself but it was no use he had my arms and legs pinned with magic. He laughed again as he slid his hand up and down my thigh. Then he brought his right hand up and slid it under my shirt.
I tried to jerk myself away but it was no use. He laughed again and leaned in close to smell my skin. I felt his tongue lick my abdomen. Then he ripped my shirt collar down far enough to expose my breast's to the cooling night air. He tore the front of my lace bra, once my nipples came into contact with the air they began to form stiff peaks. I tried to fight him again, lashing out and trying to bite him. He slapped me, busting my lip and cutting my eyebrow open wide.
"Shut up and lay there like a good little bitch. I have a nice big surprise for you."
"Stop! Why are you doing this? Seriously! Because I killed your boss?"
He laughed hysterically. After a minute he calmed enough to catch his breath (pity) then cocked an eyebrow and looked down on me again.
"I couldn't care less about that old geezer. I'm being paid to take you out little miss. Though I told him I'd have some fun with you first, for free."
"Who's paying you to do this?"
"Ha! He said you were smart. Look's like he overestimated you. Now, no more chit chat. Where were we?"
He lowered himself onto his knee's which brought him face to face with my girl down south of the boarder, if ya catch my drift. I wiggled and lurched, pulling at the magic that held me in place. He slid his hands up and forcefully jerked my pant's down to my ankles, leaving bloodies scratches and gashes along my thigh's.
I was fully exposed to him now, only the thin material of my panties stopped his assault, he ran his tongue over the material that covered the entrance to my body then began to stroke me thorough the material.
I felt tears well up in my eye's. I tried to call upon my magic but nothing came, just a faint sense that it was there and fighting to get to me. Something here must be dampening it, maybe it was the constraints. He bit my thigh, hard. I clenched my jaw, I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of hearing me scream in pain.
"Hmmm...not hard enough eh? Let's try again, I wanna hear you scream!"
A moment later he bit again, higher this time. He squeezed me so hard I knew he'd popped a few blood vessels. Then he crawled on top of me. He'd unzipped his pants and pulled them down a little way's. His face was twisted into a smile so venomous, so horrid, I could barely look at him.
He grasped my left wrist, hard then my throat with his other hand. I spit in his face but he only wiped it off with his sleeve and continued to smile down on me. Then he reach down and started stroking himself, he was so close to my nether region I could feel the heat coming off his erection directly through my panties.
I closed my eye's and braced myself, I would not scream, I would not look at him. I don't know how but one day I'd find him again, if I lived through this, I'd find him and I'd kill him!
"You ready baby?! I'm gonna make you beg so loud! My cock's so hard baby, You gonna take it all!"
He parted my leg's slightly and grasped my panties hard, just as he went to rip them off he was thrown off me. Someone or something had tackled him to the ground. The next thing's I heard were the sounds of growl's, snarl's and howl's.
I realized at once who my saviors were. I opened my eye's to see a whole pack of wolves, larger than life wolves! They were attacking the rapist bastard. Though they had him in number's he had them in magic. I watched, horrified as he started to glow a bright green, then he himself grew! Nearly doubling in height and weight. He was now at least 12 feet tall!
The biggest, blackest wolf I'd ever seen ran by me then. He leapt into the air and like a ballerina on the wind he flew over all the rest to land directly on top of his target. Finally my senses returned.
"Mikhail!"
The black wolf looked up at me.
"The necklace! It's the necklace! Destroy it NOW!"
He nodded his understanding then tore at the man's throat, he was thrown off but only for a moment. He was up again and on the man in an instant. After fighting with him for what felt like forever he finally tore the necklace from his throat and slung it hard against a nearby wall.
As it shattered the man shrank back to his human size all the magic he'd done was now dying and with it, my invisible restraint's. I was free. A rush of power flooded me again. Soon I was covered in the red bolts and waves of electricity like power. I felt it growing and pulsating inside me.
I sat up and pushed off of the altar, replacing my breasts inside the torn bra and pulling my pants back up. Once I was settled I locked on to the scene in front of me. I had, had enough of this. All of a sudden a wave of power took hold of me. It was like a revelation and I knew exactly what to say.
"Wolven, to me!" I demanded in an authoritative tone.
Every Wolven stopped his assault and returned to stand behind me, all except one who took his place at my side. His gaze never left the bloodied, torn, pathetic man. I once again set my sight's on my target and advanced.
He fell backwards and began to try to crawl away. I held up a hand and blew the boulder next to his hand into a billion little pieces. Slowly I made my way to him, firing shot after shot, blowing up rock's, boulder's, statues until I was directly in front of him.
Then I lifted my hand and as I did he came up with it. He looked me dead in the eye's and I could see his fear. He began to beg and whine for his life.
"Please, don't kill me. I'll do anything. I'll tell you who hired me! Please!"
"Who?"
"It was Cane, He called me a few night's before you came to kill my boss. He told me what was going to happen and when. Then he offered me a deal. $100,000.00 if I let you kill my boss, then I kill you. He said it would be easy, that you were a nobody that he wanted gone, I didn't know you had powers until tonight that's why he gave me the medallion. So I could resist your powers, that medallion also drains power from anyone nearby. So, So your gonna let me go right?"
I thought for a moment. I knew I recognized that medallion, it was Canes family crest. A golden lion with ruby eye's. I had figured Cane was behind this somehow or he had at least played some part in it, I just didn't know why he went to such elaborate length's.
"Mikhail."
He came to rest next to me, brushing my hand against his fur as he did so, I looked up into his molten gold eye's.
"Send one of the boys to find Dumask. Tell him to relay what we have come to find out here tonight."
Mikhail nodded and went back to the pack, I heard two of the wolves turn tail and leave at lightning fast speed's.
"So your gonna let me go right?" came the reply from the man I held by his throat in midair.
"No."
"No? But I told you everything! What the hell are you going to do now?"
"....I'm going to make you scream."
I let lose a bolt of electricity so powerful it burned through his body, his blood curdling scream's lingered on the night air as he disintegrated into dust. I turned around and headed for my truck, still aglow from the mass of power coursing through me. My Wolven bowed as I passed. I was going home now, to change then I would find Dumask.
Mikhail walked beside me to the truck where I stood and just stared at my reflection in the window for a moment. He nudged my cheek and licked it. I smiled in spite of myself. The glow was fading now. I looked up into his golden eye's.
"What's happening to me?"
He just stared at me, unsure of what to say or how to answer. Hell I didn't even know if he COULD answer me in his wolf form. So I focused on the truck once more.
"I want to go home." I said as I climbed in and started the truck up.
I backed out and flipped on my headlights before starting down the road for home. Mikhail and the rest of the boy's raced through the darkness, none, left the side of the truck. It was as if I were running with them, I thought to myself, how great it must be to be able to run like that.
To get mad and just take off running. Soon I was home and once inside my protected gates I felt relief wash over me like a warm bath. Inside the house I went to my room where I locked the door, stripped down and took the longest, hottest shower of my life. The blood from all my cuts and gashes pooled around my feet as it fought to swirl down the drain.
Time to clean out the ol shower drain again. I shut of the water and stepped out onto my bath mat. Once dried and dressed I towel dried my mass of curls and checked out the actual damage done to my face via my bedroom vanity.
"Huh, well ol girl it looks like you've only been ran over by ONE truck tonight. Good for you!" I said sarcastically to myself.
I walked over to my bed and flopped down into the fluffy comforter, I knew I had to get right back up in a few minutes but figured I'd enjoy the time I had and try to just relax. I could feel myself healing already, it wasn't painful at all, more like, a slight strange tingling feeling at the sites of all my lacerations and bruises.
I closed my eye's and let the darkness envelope me as I relished in the strange tingling feeling. It wasn't long before I felt myself start to drift off to sleep. I quickly realized what was happening and jolted awake. Which of course caused every gash to throb with anger.
I mentally slapped myself and forced my powers to surface as I lay there. I held my hand above me and wiggled my fingers a bit then snapped once...nothing. Ok, let's try that again, another snap. This time sharp cracks of what looked like lightning fizzled and poped around my whole hand.
I felt the little surge of power as it started to rush through my veins, I quickly focused my energy and slowed it to a simple flow. I had to learn how to get a handle on this frantic new surge of power or it was gonna eat me alive! It tried to force it's was into a rush again but, again I stopped it and soothed it from a roar to a gentle flow.
I waved my hand and the electric waves were gone. I closed my eye's again, this time focusing on my healing around my face. I couldn't stand the thought of what the guy's would be thinking if they saw my face so torn up when I go downstairs to talk about the night's event's. Speaking of, I needed to get a move on. I sat myself up, took a few deep and relaxing breath's and crossed my leg's.
I closed my eye's and focused all the energy I had left to my healing. After a good ten, maybe fifteen minutes I decided to risk a peek at my handy work. I got up and maneuvered very stiff self to the vanity mirror.
"Well, I'll be damned. I did it...I actually did it."
I couldn't believe it but I'd actually healed most of my face in record time, I decided to go on and speak with the guy's but before I did I grabbed my phone and sent a quick text to Dumask regarding my power issues. I had to figure out what was happening there.
"Dumask,
Have you found out anything at all about why my powers are on the fritz? Because honestly, I can deal with the upgrade but what I can not, and I mean CAN NOT deal with is the fact that I have no idea when and if they are going to work when I need them too. Tonight I was attacked at the Dogwood Grove which is another thing I need to talk to you about, considering I was there supposedly on your orders. Anyway the guy nearly raped then killed me. My powers were all over the place! Dumask.....I need your help. I know you didn't really order me to the Grove. But I also know who did. I need to get my powers straightened out, fast! He's coming...soon. I can feel it."
"Red,
I have no word's to describe how I'm feeling at this moment. I am truly sorry for what's happened this night. I had no idea about Dogwood but I swear to you I gave no such order for you to be there. I've been hip deep in research along with Doc, in our old archives. We believe we may have found something but aren't 100% sure yet. Have no fear I will meet you at the manor as soon as I figure this out. You say you know who sent you to the grove, might I chance a guess at it being our one and only snake in the grass,Cane? If so I'll see to it he's severely punished for his treasonous act's! He's done some terrible thing's, none f which I can prove, but this! If we can prove he was behind your attack, it'll tighten the hangman's knot around his throat!"
" Dumask,
Yes, I can prove it was him. I have what's left of his family necklace that he gave the would be murderer to power him up so he could kill me, and it's dripping with blood and dark magic. I also have witnesses to the attack. The Wolven and Mikhail were there. Dumask I hope you find some information soon, I desperately need your help. Please come see me at the manor asap when you find anything that might explain what's happening."
I locked the screen the shoved the phone in my pocket, I needed to head downstairs and see what was up with everyone. Some of the men may have been hurt during the struggle. I took another deep breath and cleared my throat. My face was almost fully healed but my body wasn't. I had focused as much energy as I could on my face, it was the part they'd be seeing after all.
I wanted to show strength, confidence, and power not fear, cowardice or weakness. I straightened my shoulder's and smoothed my shirt then made my way downstairs. I was met with hopeful and curious look's from the men. None of them appeared to be seriously injured, as I passed by I checked each one just as a mama wolf would her pup's.
After I had thoroughly checked everyone out and helped those who were hurt heal, I stood in the middle of the living room and ushered everyone in around me. I hated making speeches but I felt their bravery and commitment to me should be commended.
"You.....you are all...amazing. I have no idea where I would be right now if you all...well, I actually do know where I'd be. I'd be dead..." a few flinched while others shuffled or jerked uncomfortably.
"If it weren't for your bravery and selflessness I wouldn't be here right now. I owe you all a great debt of gratitude...my Wolven."
Each man's chest visibly swelled with pride as I spoke the last word's. They started looking at each other with pride in their eye's and a smile on their face's. Alex appeared suddenly and all went quiet and solemn once again as he began to speak. I spied Mikhail leaned against the open frame of the archway that lead into the living room, arm's crossed over his chest, just watching.
"Tonight our Queen was attacked. She was beaten..."growl's sounded from all around me. "She was disrespected..." the growl's grew louder. "She was nearly.....violated!" The growl's turned to a blood curdling, deep, vicious sound I can't even describe. "Are we going to let this stand?"
"NO!" came the answer in unison.
"That's right! If it takes my last weapon, my last ounce of strength, my last breath, if it takes my very soul....Then so be it! No one disrespect's our Queen and tried to kill her! NO ONE!" he growled.
The room was a sea of hooping and hollering, snarl's and growl's then came the howl's and more sound's I can't describe. The men were riled up and itching for a fight, but until I figured out what was happening with my power's I couldn't risk an attack on Doran or Cane. I needed to diffuse this situation and fast.
"Hey! I know your all itching to get out there and lay some justice on the D-bag who started all this. Hell, I am too, but until we figure out what's happening with my powers....no one's hunting Doran. He's on the back burner for now guy's. Our main priority at the moment is to just lay low and play it cool until I get the info I need from Dumask and Doc. Can everyone handle that?"
Murmurs went up all around but the ultimate answer was a resounding Yes, Ma'am. I nodded my approval then ushered them all into the kitchen to get something to eat before they set out on their patrol's for the night. After the first round of guards were fed they left and the secondary round grabbed snacks to take into the family room so they could watch TV and crash afterwards.
Mikhail and I were alone in the kitchen, I sat down at the island and rubbed the back of my neck. The muscles were strained and ached something fierce. I knew I'd have to have another healing session asap.
Mikhail sat next to me, arm's up on the island, face taught, he was deep in thought. I stopped rubbing my aching self to give him my full attention. (Anything to not think about what happened tonight.)
"You seem distracted." I began.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah, sorry. I was just thinking...about what you said before..."
"When?"
"When we spoke of the wolf in your hallucination's."
"Oh, him! Yeah Korol' is his name. I was gonna ask you about him and forgot, what with everything going on."
"Why would you ask me about him?"
"Well...he's your wolf right?"
He looked at me quizzically, then quickly composed himself.
"Do you know what Korol' means in Russian?"
"No, not really. But I'm sure YOU could enlighten me."
"This is true, I can. Korol', put simply, means King. To answer the other part of your question, Da. Korol' is my wolf, or actually, he is the personification of my wolf. When I am in wolf form I am still me but while I am in human form, Korol' is the wolf who lives within. The wolf has his own personality which can influence a person while while in wolf form, its why a very passive person in human form can end up being a true monster in wolf form. It can take decades or even life times to learn how to coexist with your wolf. I can see how this would be hard to understand to someone who is relatively new to the Wolven. But you'll catch on soon enough."
"Oh! Ok, Ok cool I get it now. He is the wolf that lives inside you, until the wolf is set free, then the wolf is you, and his personality mixed with yours makes for a perfect leader, dominant, strong, capable but also humble, smart, and wise beyond your year's. So this is why the men respect you so much, not just because your their king but because you have mastered living cohesively with your wolf."
"Exactly, though I'm not to sure about the wise part."
"Ok, well that's not confusing at all...that's sarcasm....in case you missed it."
"Ha, Ok, Ok I know it's hard to explain but that's the best I can do for now."
His laughter died away and left us once again to sit in the vast bleakness of silence. There were thing's I wanted to ask him, about himself, about meeting Conall, and about.....us, but none came to mind at the moment. All I could think about was the way I lost control tonight and let the power take over.
I'd never expected, in all my life...to just lose it. It was scary but so invigorating as well. I pushed everything away and decided to make tonight about him, he was beating himself up again. I could feel it. He also wouldn't make eye contact with me or even look in my direction. I turned in my chair to face him.
"Why is it your unsure about the wise part?"
"A wise king would never have let his queen go alone tonight."
"A wise queen would never have went alone....We all make mistakes Mikhail, it's how you amend them that count's. I don't blame you for tonight. I blame Beliad Cane." I said as I ground my teeth.
Mikhail growled low and deep in his throat at Beliad's name.
"Cane will pay, for everything he has done to aid Doran in his quest to take my throne, more than that though, he will die a slow, painful death for what he tried to do too you. I swear it on our bond."
He turned his head and looked directly into my eye's as he spoke the last part, I knew without a doubt he was good to his word. I sat there staring at him for a moment, his eye's were lit with a fire I hadn't seen in them before. They still churned like molten gold, it was mesmerizing to watch. He blinked and looked back at the island.
I rose from my stool and ran my hand across his shoulder's as I passed by him, I stopped just inside the archway to the hall and leaned against the panel. A glance over my shoulder told me he was watching so I held my hand back slightly. An open invitation to him.
I closed my eye's and waited, sure enough a few second's later his warm fingers slipped between my own, his touch sent fire shooting through my vein's. He stood right behind me, also leaned on the frame of the archway. He inhaled deeply and I knew he was catching my scent. The grip on my finger's tightened a fraction.
I pushed myself free of the archway frame and led him up the stair's to my room. Once there I left him on the bed to go to the bathroom and check my bandages for blood overflow. I'd hoped to try and spare my sheet's yet another go in the washer.
Once inside the door I peeled off my shirt and pant's and threw them back out the door to land on or near my chair. (Hey, who cares honestly, I know they're clean and I'll wear em again.) I checked my thigh's first. Much to my surprise the gashes were nearly gone and the bite mark's were almost totally closed up.
I spotted a few that had just started to bleed through the bandage though so I quickly ran some water in the sink and grabbed a cloth to clean it up with. As gentle as I was being, it still burned and sent shock's of pain through my body. I squeezed my eye's shut as I wiped dried blood from a particularly nasty wound close to my girl down south.
A warm hand closed over mine and my eye's opened slowly to find Mikhail standing behind me holding my hand stead fast above the wound. He took the cloth from me and moved to sit on my toilet seat I'd used as my leg prop.
I didn't really want him to see the wound's and turned my head to look back into the bedroom, I knew my cheek's were turning red with shame and anger at myself. I closed my eye's and braced for the impact of the cloth over the tear in my flesh. It never came, I looked back at Mikhail to see him studying it like it was a damned algebra problem he couldn't figure out.
"I was just trying to get the dried blood off, it'll be gone after I sit back down and do a lil healing session."
"Together we can heal your wounds much faster. Though some of these deeper ones....will scar."
His eyebrows pinched as he mentioned the deep wounds. I started to pull my leg back down but he placed a gentle hand on my calk and stopped me. Then he brought the washcloth up and with the lightest of touches, wiped the blood away. After doing this to a few more we made our way back to the bedroom where he laid down on the bed and eased me into the nook of his arm.
"Now all you have to do is focus on healing. Close your eye's and just breath, deep and slow."
I did as he asked and sure enough within the next minute I felt all the wounds start to tingle once again, only this time the tingle lasted for only about five minutes then was gone. I opened my eye's to see red and gold light all around us, swirling and churning like taffy being pulled. My chest was glowing gold as well.
"It must be the healing stone inside me. It's reacting to Mikhail being near me, this is amazing!" I thought to myself.
The glow began to die down and soon had dissipated completely. I pushed up on my elbow and smiled as I looked at my leg's. Where gashes and open wounds once were, now there was nothing just a few faint scar's.
I opened my legs to check my upper thigh and saw only a scar where the horrid bite was. I sent a silent thank you up to the Goddess and turned back to face Mikhail.
"This is amazing! I can't believe it actually worked."
"You doubted?" he chuckled.
"Well after everything that's happened.....sorta. But, not anymore." I smiled at him and snuggled myself back into his arm.
"Mikhail?"
"Da?"
"I have to tell you something. Something I seriously should have told you before."
"Da? What is it moya koroleva? (my queen)
"I....I know you blame yourself, for everything that's happened since you left. I also know....you plan to find a way to sever our bond and leave me because you think that is what's best for me. You want me to have a normal life, fall in love with a normal guy."
"How do you know these thing's.....you read my thought's without my knowledge, didn't you?"
"....Yes. You looked so troubled, I just wanted to help, but you wouldn't talk to me. So...I snuck in and found a crack in your wall and saw everything. Mikhail I don't want you to leave me. I don't want to feel the way I've felt all this time, the loneliness, the feeling of being incomplete. I want you to stay. Not just for me...I want you to stay for yourself. I know you can be happy here, I know I can make you happy. You just have to let me try."
Before I finished my sentence I was pulling his face towards mine. Our lip's met and fire rushed through us both. What started as a gentle kiss quickly became hot and hard. He pushed his tongue forward and I opened my mouth to receive it. He pulled me closer as I wrapped my arm's around his neck.
I lay flat on my back now while he hovered above me. His hand ran the length of my torso, leaving a trail of heat behind it. Everywhere he touched, fire burned just beneath his finger's begging to be released. He deepened the kiss as he grabbed my leg and pulled it up to meet his hip. I gladly repeated this step with my other leg, he was now directly between the two.
I could feel his hot erection as it brushed by my apex. I gave the softest moan as I thrust my hips up to meet him, the soft fabric of his pajama pant's slid away suddenly to reveal what I most craved! I ran my hand's all over his back feeling every muscle, tracing every scar. He was a masterpiece...my masterpiece.
He intertwined his fingers into the thin line of the panties that held my moist center prisoner from him and tore them away. Just as quickly as the cool air hit me, his hot member came down to give me cover and shield me from the cold. He was grunting now as he broke the kiss and tried to regain control, I held him fast and looked him dead in the eye's.
"No. I want you, and the Queen always get's what she want's right?" I said breathlessly.
"....Da, Moy Koroleva. What you want, it comes at a great price. You will never be free of me." he uttered, barely above a whisper.
"Good." was the only word my brain could piece together.
He loosed my bra expertly and threw it to the side, no need for that anymore I guess. I arched my back as I threw my head to the side, showing him my neck. He slowed his gyration long enough to gently place a hand on my cheek and turn my head the other way. He was going to bite where Conall had bitten me. I wondered why but as if he were reading my thought's he answered.
"The only Mates Bite you shall have is mine." he said in a husky domineering tone.
His gruff voice only fueled the fire roaring through me. He licked the scar's on my shoulder causing me to drive my nails into his back. He smiled against my skin.
"Not yet moya lyubov' (my love) the queen may always get what she want's...but so does the king." he whispered right against my ear.
He slid his hand slowly down the length of my body until he found the now moistened mound just above my southern lips. I gasped as he toyed with it, rolling it around on the tip of his finger then flicking it ever so softly.
The longer he made me wait the more I wanted him. I ground my hips against his, begging for him to relieve the pain growing in my loins. When I thought I could take no more he lowered his head to my right breast and encased the stiff-peaked mound he found there.
His tongue rolled over the peak, lapping at it then nibbling it before deciding to suckle it, I moaned and arched, grabbed for the bed sheet's and pillows. Anything to pull against, he was pushing me right to the edge. I was so wet and hot between my thigh's and he knew it. He rubbed the mound harder as he positioned his hip's to finally enter me.
He slowly began rubbing the head against my now soaked lips. I moaned again and again dug my nails into his back and shoulder blade. He grunted and growled as he suckled my nipple harder. He released me for only a moment as he re-positioned his hands in my tangled mess of hair. Grabbing two big hand fulls and tilting my head back he looked down on me with those big, golden eye's, lit with passion and fire.
"Redalia there is no turning back from here. If we do this, you'll be tied to me forever. Unable to love another."
"I don't want to love another, just you." I whispered.
He loosed a fierce and terrifying growl as he entered me, simultaneously biting my shoulder. I screamed as the pain and pleasure of both act's rocketed through my body. Suddenly I felt a change, I felt stronger, clearer, more alive then I had ever felt in my life. It was as if I'd been living my life in a sea of pastel colors but now the colors were bright and vibrant.
Where my human eye teeth had been, were now two fresh sharp canine's. I latched onto Mikhail's shoulder to complete the Mates Bite. He grunted in pleasure and pain. Given renewed vigor, he thrust inside me hard. Pumping and pumping, harder and harder. Blood pooled in my mouth but I didn't care I lapped it up like a hungry dog.
I felt him doing the same then as if it never happened the wounds sealed and became nearly invisible in the dark. I howled and moaned as did he. I ground against him begging for more, pleading for him to go deeper. He obliged my request, he latched onto my breast again, this time the left and suckled hard as he pumped inside me.
"yes...that's it...Mikhail I'm going to....."
"Do it! Come on baby I wanna feel you do it all over me!"
"You keep talkin like that and.....Oh....."
I had no time to finish, my sentence that is, I came hard and fast all over him just as he asked. There are no words in the English language to describe what I felt at that moment, nor the moment he came in me. If I had to pick a word though....wholeness.
At that moment I knew I would never in my life or the next find anyone who would ever come close to the way he made me feel. All my reservations I'd been holding in suddenly melted away as I lay in his arm's.
"I never want to move again." I said softly.
He chuckled.
"Nor do I moy sladkiy (my sweet), but the men will be waiting to celebrate us."
"Celebrate....why?"
"They are our pack. They felt the bond's completion, they to will have a sense of bliss and wholeness. Now that their King and Queen have been mated."
"Uuuuhhh ok, are they going to feel EVERYTIME we...mate?"
"Oh Goddess no! Just this one time." he laughed.
I smiled up at him as he wrapped me in his arm's and rolled onto his back. My mess of hair was all over my head I just knew it! I tried to smooth it down a bit but he stopped me with a kiss.
"Leave it. You look so beautiful, wild and messy."
"You know this is the most I've ever seen you smile and laugh. I told you I'd be good for you!"
"Da, I can not dispute this. Redalia, I swear to you, we'll get our kingdom back, and when we do...I'll give you everything you deserve and more!"
"Mikhail, I just want to be happy and complete. That's all."
"This is why you will make a wonderful queen. You do not care for the riches, just the love. Come, we must shower."
"Ok, but if we're in there together.....we won't be getting clean."
"I do not recall saying anything about getting clean..." he smiled a wry smile at me.
"Oh, well whatever his lordship want's....." I said in my most seductive voice as I slid off the bed and walked to the bathroom door. I turned my head just slightly so I could glance over my shoulder. "....his lordship get's."
