Jaxson POV
“Mine! Mine! Mine!” Fenrir chants.
We watch our mate on her knees, grasping her abdomen – no doubt seeking the touch of any male willing to assuage her desire.
Her arousal seeps into the atmosphere like my favourite drug; she smells delicious. Just watching her violet eyes thick with lust peer into my own – Damn, I have the urge to strip her bare and fuck her right here.
My cock has never felt so swollen, and my precious mate has never looked so damn tempting.
The ground rumb
I expect it to hurt, or burn, maybe? Nothing.The pain vanishes, and my mind no longer feels foggy. An overwhelming shot of arousal drowns me. My body thirsty for only atasteI’ll never recover from, but I risk it anyway.The second his teeth pierce my flesh, my own elongate and mirror the action. From Jaxson’s stiff posture, he didn’t expect it – but neither did I. A deep, satisfying rumble tumbles past my lips once the taste of his blood coats my tongue.Sparks ignite my soul, shining a spotlight on every scar painting its damaged form as Jaxson and I become one. Somewhere in the distance, I see Nia flash before my eyes, sa
“So, how was it?” Grayson smirks as I roam into the kitchen on shaky knees.It seems we spent an entire day locked in the guest room. If I hadn’t passed out, we’d still be going - but I left.I don’t have any regrets, but I didn’t expect to feel so-... overwhelmed withgoodemotions. It’s strange.It doesn’t help that Grayson has no bloody filter! Just the thought he heard us-....Uhh! How fucking embarrassing!“I’m not talking about it with you!” I hiss angrily.
Godmother?“Bloodhound wants you dead, which is why I haven’t killed you yet. But if you don’t leave. Right now. I’m going to rip your throat out - with my teeth?” I glower threateningly.Is this woman high? I met her not even ten minutes ago, and she thinks she can come here and sprout absolute nonsense?!“Wow, that was a little rude. I thought you’d be a little happy,” Crowe scoffs, appearing offended than afraid. “Are you sure Lucinda never mentioned me at all?” She asks, perplexed. I smirk slyly.“No, she didn’t. I guess you weren’t as important as you think you were,” I say.&
My fingers curl around the blade, strapped to my thigh. I fall to my knees in complete submission,chanting,“Sister of the lake, take this sacrifice...” Slicing my palm open above the lake. My blood drizzles and twirls into the lake and disappears.“Mother of the moon... Give me bravery and strength - so I may find justice. Mother of night-... Hide my doubts and worries - until I get my revenge. Mother of wolves-... Cast me in the insatiable anger of a wolf - so I may bring fear and death upon my adversary,” I chant.
A large wolf stands over her lithe frame. His fist held high, ready to collide with her face. An unexpected angry roar escapes my lips. I can’t help it. The thought of someone hurting her makes me want to turn into a murderous psychopath.All heads snap to me just as I throw the male wolf across the field – far away from Theia. She lay on the ground in a curled-up position, tears streak down her cheeks, and blood trails down her forehead.Worry incases me!“V-V-Valerie,” she whimpers. I cradle her in the next instant, ignoring the curious gazes pointing to me. I know they feel I killed their Alpha King, I can feel the tension through my new, acquired bonds, and I also see none of them is willing to accept it.
“Okay, Theia. How did you get here?” I growl, annoyed by her recklessness.She sits on the couch as I attend to her wound, sitting opposite her on the table. Her head sinks low, dark hair falling over her face to conceal her face from my angry scowl, “well?”I’m growing impatient. It’s a two-day journey between the warrior pack and bloodhound. Gods, I hope she wasn’t reckless and stupid enough to go through dangerous territory, “I-I… I walked,” Theia murmurs, turning her gaze to the side.A growl rips past my lips. I can’t help it. Doesn’t this kid realise how stupid she was, and how did she know where the fuck I was?&ldqu
“We’re leaving. Let’s go,” Grayson disrupts our moment. Charming couldn’t take his eyes off Sophia, and Theia lay in my arms. My gaze flickers to Grayson, confused.“Not that I’m going to miss this place, but why so soon? Are we returning to the Warrior Pack?” I ask. Grayson shrugs.“No. We need to look into this Prophesy, and by doing that, we will first need answers from the Oracle – who resides in the forest of the Fae,” Grayson explains and turns to leave. I crease my brows.“Are we teleporting?” I can’t help but ask Sophia. I can’t warp there since I’ve never travelled so far, and also because Theia won’t survive in that spaceless place, and I refuse t
We arrive at the Fae lands, and to say I’m in awe is a severe understatement. The fiery night skies have ascended, and the crimson moon bleeds through the foggy black clouds drifted softly across it. It looks chaotic but enthralling.I’m ready to rest, but the sight of these lands’ strip me out of my state of drowsiness. I have never witnessed trees so huge; they are ten times the size of a normal-sized tree and rage in different colours, too. Blue, pink, purple, yellow, red – they all glow so beautifully in the blackness.The tree leaves dance and sways in the soft, cool breeze shining their lights over the sleeping creatures huddled in the lengthly grass and over the lake as toads hop out and disappear a moment later.One tree is l
