~Hazel~Even as a Lycan, Tae takes his time. For obvious reasons, I assumed a quick 'doggy style' was the go-to position when they make love in their animalistic form. What I didn't expect was Tae licking the holy hell out of my hoo-ha. This is a contradicting feeling for me. It's a cross between weird as fuck and gooder than a goddamn. I don't even care if gooder isn't a word. It should be! It might be nasty, but I won't deny the pleasure that rolls through my body. For shame, for shame.Val is right beside my head, touching herself. The sexual aroma is driving me wild. Her smell was enticing before I became a Lycan, but now? My mouth is watering for a taste of her. My senses heightened beyond anything I imagined.I need to taste you, Val. Your scent is making me crazy. A small whimper escapes me. I can tell Val prefers staying in her human body the majority of the time. I think I'll be more comfortable in that form as well.She stops touching herself and straddles my head, facing Ta
~Valentina~ "It's okay, Hazie. It was only a bad dream." Hazel woke up gasping for air, sweating profusely. It scared the shit out of Tae and me."No, Val. It was real. I swear it was so real." She's shaking with fear in Tae's arms. "Can you tell us what it was?" Tae soothes her by running his fingers through her silky hair. Hazel tells us what her dream consists of, and my heart sinks to my stomach. There was too much detail for it to be only a dream. Hazel was able to recall the smell in the forest, the chill of the wind, and the taste of iron in her mouth as someone tried to kill her. It was a message from the Tribrid herself."She's just messing with your mind. She wants you to believe you are a threat, so that you will be more willing to give yourself up. Nothing you do will cause the deaths of so many people, Hazel. You're a good person." I try my best to ease her mind, but I'm lying to her. A Tribrid cannot project a false vision, and Tae knows it too. I can tell by his expres
~Valentina~Hazie was able to relax after I told her Ryan was safe. He's Queen Emilia and King Cassius's personal servant, so I know he gets treated with respect. His blood is not used to feed, but apparently, their daughter, Catherine, likes to play with him. That means Catherine uses him to satisfy her sexual needs and sends him away, but Emilia said Ryan doesn't mind. Catherine is a stunning young female, so it's no surprise that he is willing to oblige. Hazie laughed when I told her about Ryan being a sex toy for the king and queen's daughter."At least he isn't being tortured, and he seems happy in that territory. Anything is better than Mortal Grounds." She was never a fan of her home territory, but now that she is educated on how they function, she hates it. The leaders she once respected are now at the top of her shit list.Today, Hazie starts her training. If the vision she experienced is coming soon, we need to ensure we prepare her for it. The problem she mainly needs to wo
~Octavius~If these women don't knock it off, I'm going to lose my fucking mind. Here I am, just trying to be a dad, when all of a sudden, I feel that tingling sensation starting in the pit of my stomach.I knew that was just the beginning. Now I'm sweating like a she-wolf in heat in the middle of July."Daddy, you look funny." Lucas and I are sitting on the floor, playing with blocks while my dad sits on the couch. I guess I should say Lucas is playing with blocks. He's doing a fantastic job making tall towers while I am half-tempted to jump through the window, butt ass naked. I'm usually pretty good at making things up from the top of my head, but I have no idea what to say to him."Do you need to go poo poo, Daddy? It's not good to hold it, remember?" Lucas whispers so the staff doesn't hear my personal business. My son is too smart for his own good."You're right, buddy. I should go to the potty. I'll be right back." I get up from the floor and tell my dad to keep an eye on him wh
~Octavius~After five hours of hard labor, Carlie delivered a beautiful baby girl. Her name is Demi Camryn Storm. She is so tiny, much smaller than Lucas was when he was born. Unfortunately, my dad won the bet. Ash passed out once Carlie started to push. I heard her call him a worthless cow from down the hallway. He will never live this down. Thankfully, Hazel splashed water in his face and woke him up in time for Demi to be born so he could tend to Carlie the way she needed him to. Now, we're giving Carlie and Demi time to sleep after the long night they've had. Ash is unable to sleep, so he has Demi swaddled in his arms. Val and Hazel went to bed about fifteen minutes ago. I can tell they went straight to sleep, for which I am grateful."Are you sure you don't want to get some sleep while Demi is sleeping?" He remembers how Val and I barely rested after Lucas was born, so I'm surprised he isn't taking advantage of the opportunity."I can't. I would have to put my baby down. Anything
~Valentina~Tae walked into the bedroom without her by his side. I felt his heartbreak before he returned, but I tried to remain optimistic. Our parents, Carlie and Ash gave me words of encouragement, but now their faces show fear."Where is Hazie?" My voice has never sounded so small. Tae pulls me into his chest while struggling to keep his tears at bay."I had to let her go, Val. She was going to reject us." The pain in our chests is almost too much to bear. Eden will shred Hazie before she even gets the chance to blink. What the fuck is she thinking?"Do you seriously think she would reject us?" I know we are still new, but how could she reject the love we have with her? How could she even fix her mouth to threaten such a thing? We could have worked through this together; fought Eden together. There is no hope for her now."Yes, she would have. She said she figured it out, and the only way to change the outcome of the prophecy was to turn herself in. She also shifted pretty quickly
~Hazel~Eden tapped my forehead, removing whatever trance she had me in. I couldn't contain my scream as I fell to the ground, clutching my neck where she bit me. My entire body feels like it's on fire."Did you just fucking mark me?!" I screeched."No, not necessarily. I injected you with my venom, not neutralizer. You won't be going into a coma. You'll simply die unless you drink my blood. If I can't have you as my mate, then I will leave a piece of myself with you one way or another. This way is permanent." I feel like lying down in a pile of snow. My skin feels like it's blistering, and my chest is heavy."Why?" This is all I could muster. Even speaking is painful because my throat is so dry."I told you, you were supposed to be mine! I envisioned you for centuries, only for you to be claimed by the Lycan Royals. I have waited so long. So many years being alone because I thought waiting on you would be worth the wait. The Fates have a fucked up sense of humor." This woman is batsh
~Valentina~ Hazie has been gone for five weeks. She communicates with us all the time with a new cellphone Eden got for her, which surprised the hell out of us. She's too far away to mindlink, so we frequently talk on the phone. I hate not being able to feel her or smell her scent while I fall asleep. Tae is always gone, working with the Royal Kings from other territories to ensure Hazel is unharmed, as she is not a threat. Sleeping without both of my mates is making me more depressed every day. Carlie and our parents have been as helpful as they can be with Lucas. I haven't been as patient as I should be for him, so I feel like I'm failing as a mother. This depression is taking over my mind, and I don't know how to handle it anymore.What Eden did to Hazie is unforgivable, in my opinion. Tae and I haven't had time to lean on each other as we deal with the emotions of what happened to our mate. No matter how civil and helpful Eden is trying to be, it still doesn't take away the perman
