SCARLETT POV
I don’t get to say anything as he cuts me off with a dominance-filled kiss. His hand runs down my body and when he gets to my thigh, he pulls on it to lift it up and around his waist. He stops with his hand resting on my thigh and does nothing more except kissing me until I relax and start to kiss him back, he then slowly slides himself inside me but this time he continues with slow gentle thrusts and I can’t stop the pleasure that builds and flows through me. As I respond to the pleasure he is causing, he starts to increase his thrusts, making them faster and faster, but still gentle. I can feel his pleasure building just as high as he was building mine. He takes me over the edge first, making my body tighten and then shatter around him. He keeps going, keeping himself on the edge as he builds up my pleasure again. The next time he takes me over the edge, he releases with me.
“I am sorry, Butterfly, but I wanted to make up foPHOENIX/SORENPOVI know it is Scarlett’s place to tell Dominic about her gift but if there is still a spy in the kingdom we need to get on top of it, and Soren wanted to find out from Caleb how he got Seraphina to forgive him completely for what he did.I head to Dominic’s office and knock on the door once I get there, I open the door slightly “Excuse me your highness but if you are not busy may I have a word with you?”“Of course Phoenix. Gentlemen if you would excuse me, how about you all go and have some lunch in the dining hall and we will resume this meeting once everyone has eaten.”“Yes your highness!” comes the reply from all the clan leaders sitting in his office, they stand, bow and leave the room.“So my friend is this business or pleasure?”“Maybe a little of both,” I loosen my shirt a little not knowing what to
SCARLETT POVIn the car on the way back to the castle, my mind was just overflowing with everything. All the paperwork and stuff to do with the clans and the Blood Moon has all been taken care of, but the encounter I had with Sharon has me a little on edge. Even after everything would Phoenix still choose me or would Soren prefer and make him choose her, Soren has always been that bit rougher and I am not sure if I can be what he needs… I guess she is the one from my vision, wanting someone that is not hers….I look up as I hear the screech of tires to come face to face with the front of another car; I hear the bang as it hits and then I feel light as the SUV starts to roll; I hit my head on the window. I must have blacked out for just a second because when I look around we have stopped moving and there is broken glass and mangled metal everywhere around me. My whole body hurts. I try moving and scream out as pain radiates out from
SHARON POVWell, that didn’t go exactly as I thought, but I still got what I wanted and I haven’t had pleasure like that since Soren. I go and meet up with the other male and let him know what junction to be sitting near and that I will let him know once she leaves. I then make my way back towards the building with the office she is working in. It doesn’t take long before she comes out and gets into the SUV.I follow at a distance, place a call and watch as the other car crashes into the princess’s SUV, making it flip over two, three, four times before it comes to a rest in the paddock down and just off the road. I approach the accident scene carefully, wouldn’t want anyone to know I was here. The two guards traveling with the princess are dead, killed in the accident itself. The other car with four more guards in has stopped up the road and is making their way back to the princess. I look over
PHOENIX POVPatrick and Ethan run around the area in an ever-expanding cycle. They stop a couple of times but always go back to where I worked out the extra car was. They moved out in a semicircle from where the extra car was but only get so far before they were sneezing and shaking their heads...“My Queen?” I look over at her with worry.“They keep losing the scent after a few feet.”“The unknown female must be a very high-ranked vampire within her clan. It's the only way she would be able to disguise her scent and cover Scarlett’s as well.”“Dom! I don’t want to leave Scarlett out here or in anyone’s hands, but it's getting late. The rogues will be out in force soon. We must either return to the castle or go to the closest clan. Which way are we going?”“My Lady? Your choice. It is safer at the castle. Theodore is at the nearest clan looking to see
SHARON /VERA POVHe nods slightly at me and continues down the street. He just dismissed me like I was no one, that I haven’t been giving him all of me for the last hundred years or so. I can’t stop myself as my vampire Vera takes over, wanting some skin contact with Phoenix. She doesn’t block me out though, so we can enjoy this together; we move quickly up to the next alley and as he walks past; we pull him in and push him up against the wall, kissing him like it is our last day on this earth. I smirk as his arms wrap around me and he tightens them, pulling me closer as he deepens the kiss. I keep the kiss hard and dominant, like I know he likes, as I move one of my hands down his chest to his pants. The less he thinks, the better for me. I wasn’t planning this but I need it and by the feels of it so does he, as I grew up I learned never to worry about wearing any underwear as they would just end
SCARLETT POVI am pulled out of the darkness into a sea of pain; I move, trying to make it less, but that just makes more pain flow up from my leg. I stop moving, but then I scream as another extremely sharp pain shoots through me, but this one comes from my mate mark. No... no... no... he couldn’t have… he wouldn’t have…“Nix?? Nix?? Please, No... no... Nix? Please, I can be better… I can be what you want…. Please!!! Nix!! Nix!!”I lose the connection with Phoenix as I scream again as the pain from my mark increases and is then joined by a sharp stabbing pain through my stomach… “Ruth?? Cara?? What’s going on?”I hear them scream in my head too, “We are not sure… but it seems Nix or Soren has allowed another female to put her mark over ours..”“Is the mate bond broken? Is that why it
THEODORE POV"I think I am in real trouble here, my friend!" Phoenix whispers as he passes out. I catch him so he didn't fall onto the ground. I sling him over my shoulder and head back to the leader's house, where he was nice enough to put me up for the time I am here.Once I was in the room, the leader allocated for me; I lay Phoenix on the bed and go over everything I have been told and the way everyone acted with the mention of Scarlett. Everyone here really liked Scarlett and can't wait for her next visit. The only trouble she seemed to have was a confrontation with Sharon and that was more personal as it was to do with Phoenix.Out of all the females he could have gotten mixed up with, why did it have to be Sharon. I have had my own adventure with her but never took it past talking to her. She wants closer to the higher power and has it in her mind that being the lover of a high-ranking vampire will give her that. Unfortunately, it doesn't work
PHOENIX POVI wake up with a start as a sharp pain radiates out from my mate's mark; I sit up, snap out my hand, wrapping my fingers tight around the neck of the person closest to me. I then focus and stare into the worried face of Doc Emily. "Nix! Nix, Please calm down.""Doctor Emily?? Sorry, that hurt.." I carefully remove my fingers from her neck and she takes a few steps back"I apologize. I was just having a quick feel of it. I was hoping not to cause you to wake." she rubs her neck gently."I'm really sorry, Em! I just reacted to the sudden pain. So what is your opinion?""It's fine, I understand. Do you mind if I have a better look? Can you take your shirt off?"I smile and do as she asks, taking my shirt off and moving to sit on the side of the bed, giving her access and a clear view of my mark. She moves back up next to me, looks at it, and runs her fingertips just over the skin. I flinch, but try to keep as
