"Not with the luna, with mate!" Despite how uncomfortable Otto was inside his wolf, he held on to his human self-control.
"Protect the luna Aztec!! Protect the alpha's mate." At the mention of the alpha's mate, its restlessness turned into aggression.
The protective nature of a beta to an alpha set in and its howl shrieked, sending the wolves gathered at the royal house into the abyss of dread.
Floyd heard it and and smiled. A faithful beta he had.
"Get off the royal house!!" It thundered at the wolves which were trembling in fright.
"She belongs to the alpha!!" And the moment the name which held the highest authority hit their eardrums, they leaped in fear and bolted in apprehension.
"Protect the alpha's luna!!" Otto bucked up his wolf the more. "We can do this Aztec."
The more he buoyed it up, the more it growled louder and furiously, wading off intruders.
The moment it sensed the presence of the alpha wolf, it lowered itself.
"She's safe!" It muttered and Kylo halted, looked at Aztec, flickered its tail and ran towards the luna's chamber.
"Let's leave buddy." And in triumph, Aztec galloped away to the beta's chamber.
Transforming into his human counterpart, Otto hit the bathroom and submerged himself in the tub filled with cold water.
How miserable it was to be without a mate and suffer from enticing scents from mated females.
The closer Kylo got to her chamber, the more her enchantment tormented him.
He could hear her groans and her attempt to open the door to free herself. He could feel her restless heartbeat which spiked his male hormone more.
"We're coming mate." Kylo tried to mind link her wolf for the first time but got no response.
Realizing the door was locked, it ran behind the house, climbed the roof, broke the ceiling, found its way in and allowed Floyd out.
He saw her rolling on the ground , her dress shredded into pieces, and her soft skin fully exposed.
Her eyes were firmly shut, her lips slightly opened from where sweet, soft moans flew out.
A flame of passion rekindled in him, travelled round his body, settled in his abdomen and a sudden burst of yearning attacked his hardening.
Quickly, he lifted her up and her arms instinctively wrapped around him, her chin leaned on his shoulder and her enticing moan streamed into his eardrum.
His Adam apple involuntary jumped in delight as he carefully placed her on the bed and grazed her flushed skin.
A surge of insatiable desire to claim her hit him and he tore off the remaining piece of clothing, exposing her full mounds, her pink buds gazing expectantly at him.
She gripped his arm, sat up and brushed her tongue on his throbbing Adam apple.
"Fuck!!"
He cursed, took one of the buds into his mouth sucking it like he had been craving.
"Ah.....mmmh....ooh...
Her soft moan whetted him the more and he rubbed the other gently with his fingers, sending her to the peak of pleasure.
She trembled under his touch as his finger ran round her skin igniting electrifying flame which flowed rapidly through her body.
His fingers travelled slowly down her belly and gradually to her core which was hidden under her fabric.
She gasped when his finger brushed against the silk and subconsciously held him tightly.
"Mate!" He whispered.
"Not mate." He felt the sadness that lingered in Kylo's voice as it responded in place of her wolf.
"It's mate Kylo."
"Not mate!" He felt it turning its back, a sign of rejection.
And just then Cinders tiny voice rang. "Mate!" She acknowledged Kylo and without hesitation, Floyd connected their lips, not giving her space to breathe.
"I'll give you so much pleasure that you wouldn't want me to stop…" He whispered into her ear in a deep and seductive voice.
"Ah … please." Another set of moans escaped her lips as his wet tongue which had left her lips to settle on her bud snatched all her self-control.
His big manly hands slowly slid into her core, his three fingers twirling on it. The sensation it came with sent a jolt through her and she started to feel a sudden rush of warm, sticky fluid dripping from her core.
Her trembling legs wrapped around his waist and she felt his warm length brushing her entrance and made her push her waist upward to savour it.
She held him tightly, her nails dug into his skin, but he was swimming in desire to notice.
He left her buds and trailed his tongue down to her navel, placing kisses all along.
"Floyd..... please...do it.....
If he continued with the electrifying sensations he was flooding her with, she might collapse from ecstasy, but her scent which was intensely intoxicating, blocked his ears to hear her plea.
Her scent rushed into his nostrils rousing his thirst, and he trailed his nose down, sniffing in delight, till he got to her core.
He placed his nose in-between her thigh, savoring the candied scent which threw him into the ocean of lust.
"So good!" He mumbled as he parted his lips to nibble her inner lips.
"Flo...yd!!" Passion held her voice that she could only stutter his name. His action was driving her speedily to the peak of her libido.
She wriggled, trying to break free as the sensation that came with his lips pushed her to the rim of collapse, but he parted her legs, held them steadily and buried his lips there.
She felt a mass of tickling sensation building up in her groin that she felt like she was breaking apart.
"Floyd!!" Her luscious voice shrilled and she grabbed the sheets to steady her body from exploding.
"Floyd please!!" But he wasn't done yet. Her pool of moisture was too honeyed and delicious that he couldn't get enough.
And then, her muscles tensed, a jolt of sensation flooded her groin and she bit her lips to keep afloat, but its pressure threw her deeper and her thighs unconsciously tightened around his head.
With an ear-piercing moan, she convulsed, releasing sweetened fluid which he licked off instantly.
Quickly, he pulled away, licked his lips in delight and connected their lips again. "You taste great Luna."
She felt his erection on her belly and wished to see it, to hold it, but her eyes were shut as she was too shy to behold him. Even Cinder, had retreated, hiding from his wolf.
"Let me in Luna!" And instantly, he parted her legs and slowly slipped into her.
Certain it had fitted in, he gazed into her shut eyes."Your mine!!" Then began to thrust gently, and gradually increased the tempo, leaving her screaming in ardor.
"Oh...godd....esss!!" She pushed her head backward, bit her lips as she gave in to the voltage of passion which routed through her.
"Flo.....yd !!"
"Mine." He thrust faster, releasing all the emotions hidden in him. "Mark her! Mine!" He whispered to Kylo, but it shook its head in disagreement.
"Mark her Kylo!" He ordered, but Kylo turned its back on him.
"Kylo!!" He thundered and in fear, it charged forward to fulfill his wish, but was knocked off by a force. "I can't." It whimpered
"Mark her fuckin wolf!!" He used his human strength to compel him, but the force thumped them.
"Can't mark her." Kylo retreated sadly.
Amidst his frustration, he felt his organ swollen and about to explode and with a loud groan, he jerked vigorously and released his loads in her.
When it was over, he laid beside her, his arms gripped around her tightly. He nibbled her earlobes and placed a peck on her cheek.
"You're mine." He whispered, but her heart was heavy.
He couldn't mark her!! Cinder couldn't behold Kylo!! She wasn't his yet!!
The next day, he summoned the seer, Waylon to his court.
They'd been sitting in quiescence for over half an hour, yet the alpha hadn't uttered a word.
Waylon parted his lips to speak but the alpha's ugly expression rendered him momentarily dumb.
The alpha's expression was murderous and spread through the court and made uneasiness grip him.
There was no other person in the court except the both of them which evoked slight tremor in his heart.
Waylon travelled down memory lane to pick any crime he must have committed unknowingly, but the lane was kempt.
When he could no longer bear to remain in the enclosed space of silence, he gut down his fear.
"The great alpha of Broln pack summoned me to his honorable court." He bowed.
"May I know what has stolen the light from my alpha's appealing face?"
Floyd shot him an indignant look. "Shouldn't you know why I summoned you?"
Waylon swallowed hard. Perhaps, he must have provoked the alpha unknowingly.
"We only work with what we know alpha, we aren't immortal." His spoke politely in a voice ladened with esteem.
After a momentarily silence, Floyd sat upright, his gaze ahead. "My luna's first heat was yesterday."
"Great!! A heir is about to be made!!" Waylon squealed in excitement.
"All the unmated males craved my luna!!" His face hardened in rage and caused Waylon to tremble. Has he said something wrong?
Quickly, Waylon sieved his next words, picking out any that might flare his anger.
"It's normal alpha, only with great self control will they overcome the temptation, but once she's marked which I believed has been done, it will cease."
"That's it!!" He banged his fist on the arm of his royal seat.
"I didn't mark her!! I couldn't mark her!!" His fingers raked his short hair angrily.
"She isn't mine yet!! Why can't I mark her!!" Recollecting the incident, anger stirred within him.
Waylon peered at him in befuddlement. Once a werewolf was mated to another, they were fated and him alone could mark her.
"You didn't mark her?"
"I couldn't mark her!!" His eyes narrowed into slits and his entire body smoldered in fury.
Waylon tilted his head quizzically, his forehead wrinkled. Never had he read or heard that a werewolf couldn't mark his mate.
"Can you calm down and explain Alpha?"
"Calm down!! Did you ask me to calm down!! How on this fuckin earth will I do that!!"
He rose from his seat, advanced towards Waylon and shoved him backward.
Waylon kept his cool, praying it should be only a shove, or he would leave the alpha's court with intensely bruised face.
"Do you understand how it feels, running to meet your mate who is in desperate need of you, but a fuckin force kept pulling you back!!"
The court was about exploding in his rage, but Waylon felt the weight of panic lifted from him the moment the alpha stepped away from him.
"Then you pushed yourself to her, excited to seal your union, but then, your wolf refused to cooperate!! Your wolf refused to see her!!"
He stomped his feet angrily and slammed the wall.
Better to slam the wall than slam him. Waylon thanked the goddess inwardly for saving him from the iron fists of his alpha.
"Then you realized it wasn't your wolf but an unknown force holding it back!!" He returned to his seat and slumped into it.
Waylon gazed upward, his eyes shut. "Or isn't she your real mate?"
His question agitated Floyd that he suppressed the urge to smack him.
"Do you ask me that? Didn't you confirm it yourself? I smelt her, I sensed her, the bond led me to Herith pack, it led me to her!! Her wolf acknowledged me!! Isn't that how it's done?"
He went through the entire process of mate finding, following the instincts Selene gave him.
"I returned and you were in front of this court, waiting to inform me my mate is Hera, the daughter of Denovan, even when you weren't aware I went in search of her!! So tell me, isn't she my mate?"
Waylon was as baffled as him. He recalled that day, the day he was in his chamber and saw a vision of Floyd holding Hera, a sign of mate bonding.
He quickly ran over to the court to break the news but on arrival, he saw him returning in high spirits from Herith pack where he found his second mate, Hera.
Since she had a wolf and Broln pack needed a luna, he made her his luna.
"I'll enquire from the goddess." He shut his eyes in meditation for a while, his body motionless.
After a while, his eyes flew opened and he gazed sternly at Floyd.
"You can never mark her until the bond with your first mate is broken."
The revelation threw a huge ball of paralysis at him that he momentarily stiffened on his seat.
"What did you say?" He asked in an almost indistinct voice.
"Until your first mate bond is broken, you can never mark your luna, and remember, do not force your first mate to reject you or the result you already know would be served to you."
His jaw dropped and he sat unblinking trying to process what he had just been told.
"Why will the goddess give me a wolf-less mate then a second mate I can't mark?"
"The goddess doesn't want you to separate from your first mate alpha."
Everything was beginning to make no sense. Everything had placed him in the blazing heart of bafflement.
"She's wolf-less, she can't go into heat and I can't mate her!!" Thousands of questions glided through his mind and he had answer to none.
"The force that pulled you back when you were running to meet her was a sign you shouldn't mate her." Waylon explained what the goddess put in his mind.
Flyod scratched his head and rubbed his face as confusion locked up his sense of reasoning. "Her wolf acknowledged me."
"But your wolf rejected her! There's more to it alpha, unfortunately, the goddess only showed me what I revealed."
Floyd slouched down in his seat. "Alora!! Why did Selene send you to me!! Is it to torment me?" He muttered.
"Do not blame the innocent, only Selene has the answer we seek and at her own time, will reveal it."
He rose to his feet. "I'll take my leave alpha. Remember, do not force your first mate to reject you. Ensure you get to your luna first whenever she's in heat to protect her from unmated males."
Then he exited the court with thick lines of perplexity drawn on his face.
Floyd sank into the depth of weariness. His first mate was wolf-less, he couldn't mark his second mate, his beta was mate-less, all in one pack.
What plans do the goddess have for them?
