• Honor in the House of Wolves   Part 4: Bound Chapter 18: A Gathering of Offerings

  Once everyone finished filing in and the courtiers settled down I felt exposed. All eyes were on me, I could feel them. Everyone wanted their chance to look at the changeling turned pet for the House of Wolves. Luckily, it wasn’t long before Dimitris came in to the bang of three spear heads on the ground. He didn’t take a seat as I would have expected, rather he stayed standing with his feet inches from the edge of the platform. Also to his credit he didn’t look over at me once. Meanwhile I was staring just as awestruck as the first day I saw him on that platform. Maybe I was mistaken but I did manage to catch a little smirk just before he started to speak. “As you all know from our previous gathering there was outcry for the Nobel house to allow our ward to attend court in traditional fashion.” He spoke as if the very room carried his voice echoing against the walls. “She is here today, and now we can put that entire business behind us.” He turned finally, taking to his throne sitt

  I woke with far more aches and pains than I had previously. The result of our antics last night painted across both of our bodies. Dimitris’s back looked like he had been assaulted by a savage animal his neck had dried blood from my many bites. At one point I could have sworn I latched onto him and nearly tore out a section of his shoulder. This morning it appeared as nothing more than a well-defined bruise, sending a chill down my spine as I couldn't help recalling how it felt to have him between my teeth. Damn, I thought to myself, I need to give him a break. Then again, nothing I had done so far left any scarring, sure he looked sore for hours afterward but as far as everlasting damage that would be something Sylis once again excelled at over me. I shook my head trying to drown out the guilt and inferiority before he could sense it, “I’m so sorry.” I buried my head in the blankets as he got up to start cleaning himself off. "I didn't mean to go all crazy on you." "Crazy?" His fa

  Dimitris stood at the door waiting until Conrad and Anju left leaving me in the bed feeling far more exposed than necessary. He was just there, standing tall, deep inhales and growling exhales that sent shivers down my spine. It was as if he were just trying to assess my situation without talking to me first. “Are you going to come here?” I patted the bed but he didn’t move. “You know I’m okay right?” maybe he was worried about me? “That’s not-” but he stopped, “You’re still hiding your fae nature?” Reflexively, my hands went to the top of my head but I shouldn’t have been surprised I knew it was hidden and nodded. “Guess you didn’t take all your power back huh?” ”I closed off our bond three days ago.” His eyes were narrowed at me as if I was keeping something secret from him, “Conrad and Anju said you needed the break.” Looking down, just away from him to avoid his eyes, I shrugged, “Sorry, I guess I really couldn’t handle it like I thought.” “You handled it fine,” I heard a

  Dimitris stood at the door waiting until Conrad and Anju left leaving me in the bed feeling far more exposed than necessary.

  I was put up in a room next to Conrad and Anju’s much against Dimitris’s protest. Though when Anju said it was a necessity and Conrad backed her up Dimitris oddly allowed it. Anju and Yvet were the ones who were watching over me. Dimitris, it had felt like a lifetime since I had seen him or felt him. I just laid in the bed feeling wave after wave of cramping pain that caused every inch of me to tense up. “It’ll pass,” Anju stroked my hair, “The Attason boys aren’t really known for their restraint. The same thing happened to me after I bonded with Conrad. You’ll feel better soon.” Soon? The lack of timeframe was the worst. The only thing I continued to cling to was the fact that my ears and tail weren’t out yet, Dimitris it seemed wasn’t one hundred percent gone. “Dimitris might not have told you everything, about what it means to have a bond with your mate. I guess you also don’t exactly know what it means since humans don’t know about bonding or mates.” I shook my head. “He

  “Breakfast?” Conrad chimed. Dimitris rolled his eyes, “Are you really going to take up more of our time?” With a laugh and a wink Conrad pulled away from Anju wrapping one arm around his brother’s neck, “You’ve forced me to ignore my little sis for so many moon cycles. Not anymore.” “Forced him?” I frowned taking a step back, “What’s going on?” “Nothing,” Pushing Conrad off him, Dimtiris groaned, “I didn’t want you to be overwhelmed by everyone.” “Conrad’s always wanted a younger sister.” Anju winked and it was like someone flipped a switch making everyone around me actually approachable. I don’t know why they were so different towards me but maybe I could get used to this. “Emnore never qualified?” I laughed. “She’s older than me.” Conrad cocked his head to the side. “Wait…” That certainly muddied the timeline up a bit. “How?” “She was born a few moons after Alfred,” Anju nodded, “She started out as a ward of the crown too. Those two grew up together.” “Certainly waited a
