42. Ceremony
Everest
We laid in the grass, tangled up in one another revelling in the renewed intensity of our mate bond. We’d nearly destroyed it, but fortunately not beyond repair. I was exhausted and sore after hours of sex, but I felt a sense of completeness. All I had needed to hear was that the future of our mate bond was up to us, and that Finn wanted to fight for it. We were bonded now that I bore his mark. It would just be starting to show up now and I was excited to see it…but not enough to move from the position we were in. I snuggled into his chest, and he placed a kiss on my forehead. The dress I’d been wearing was littered around us like shrapnel and my panties were nowhere to be seen. His clothes always seemed to come out unharmed. I smirked and made a mental note to shred his pants next time I got to take them off. I thought about what awaited me when we went back inside and a pang of nerv

Finn Rowena had said Everest would need to sleep through the night. As impressive as the gifts were they certainly put a strain on her energy levels. I had carried her to one of the empty rooms and curled up with her. The aura that had radiated from her that night had been pure power. As the spell had broken, a rumbling of electricity had cracked across the sky. Rowena had cackled, and had said “Helios knows…” I couldn’t say I’d ever met another person who took so much delight in challenging the ancient Gods… As Everest’s sun aura had faded to be replaced by her moon aura, Rowena had stopped channeling. “She’s changing now…her power blocks magic…interesting.” I was shocked. Everest’s sunpower protected and healed others, and the moon aura protected her from magic. Who knows that else she could do? How was it possible th

Everest Rowena stood up and looked me up and down, noting my appearance changes. My hair was straight and much more ashy than before. I had one silver-grey eye and my body shape had even changed. My chest had become heavier and my hips rounder. It was a weird feeling…like I’d woken up in someone else’s body. But more than the physical appearance I felt stronger…physically, but also in my own inner strength and my gifts. I felt more in control. I knew I could tap into them at a moments notice and sustain them for as long as I needed. I could see why Helios had tried to hide these powers away. I felt invincible. I watched Rowena inspect me. “Interesting…you look more like her now, too” she mused. “Who?” “Selene, darling” she smiled. “Oh…you’ve seen her?” I wond

Finn We cruised through the mountains quickly, not wasting any time. The time spent at Rowena’s had changed both of us immensely. In a safe place, we’d finally been able to accept our mate bond and solidify it and I’d never been happier. Finding out about my mother had been excruciating. But knowing that she’d given her life for Lupin and Everest made it a bit easier. It wasn’t a senseless act of killing or an accident. She’d made her choice with a purpose, knowing it was the only way to save the future of the wolves. It didn’t excuse my father’s behaviour, but it made my feelings of loss slightly easier. Finding out that Rowena had unsealed my mate bond, that I didn’t even know was sealed in the first place, had surprised me…but it made sense. In one moment, everything in me had shifted, allowing Everest in. I couldn’t fathom how I’d ever considered rejecting her in the first place. Knowing

Everest We made our way upstairs nearly naked by the time we got to Finn’s room. It was woodsy and dark and full of his sandalwood and cedar scent. He tore off the remainder of my clothes once the door was shut behind us and picked me up, carrying me off towards the bathroom. Aside from a brief moment when I put a sticky note on his head, I hadn't spent any time in Finn's room. The bathroom was black marble with silver accents. A massive tub sat in the corner and a large vanity covered the other wall. Large bay windows overlooked the lake and a huge glass shower was in the middle of the room. His shower was a massive glass room with a dark stone floor and a rainfall ceiling. We stepped in and the water poured over us. I hadn’t rinsed since the lake, so the hot water felt unreal. I washed my hair first and then let the water soothe my tired muscles. Finn finished washing his hair and grabbed the bar of soap. “Come here, gorgeous” his husky, deep voice made my stomach clench in anticip

Finn The sun streamed through the windows at first light. It must’ve been early as the light was golden and warm. It bounced off Everest’s hair, making it look like it was glowing. I smiled… my little sunshine. She was curled in a little ball, tucked into my side, her breath tickling my ribs. I reached over to the nightstand and grabbed the remote and pressed the button that closed the blackout curtains and slowly we were immersed back into darkness. I pulled Everest into me and breathed in her sweet scent and drifted back off to sleep. When I awoke again Everest was lying beside me staring at me while I slept…the little weirdo. “Morning…why are you watching me sleep?” I stretched and she snickered. “Do you know you talk in your sleep?” She smiled. Oh gods, what I had I said? I tried to remember what I’d been dreaming about,

EverestKali and I changed into our bathing suits and brought a big blanket down to the edge of the lake. We laid it out flat in the sand under the shade of a tall fir tree and set out a variety of unhealthy snacks and sodas that we’d nabbed from the pack house kitchen. The day was clear skies and hot; perfect for sitting by the lake. After the emotional and physical stress over the last several weeks it felt nice to sit with my best friend and let the world fade away for a few hours. I knew the topic of what had happened down in the tunnels was eating away at her, but she didn’t press, which I was thankful for. What had happened to Fiona weighed heavy in my heart. She had been just a child. Barely old enough to have a wolf and then she’d been turned into a monster against her will and lost forever. The thought of her mangled, hairless body lying in the dark of those tunnels haunted me. I shivered and tried to clear my head.“So, you slapped my mate in the face, eh?” I grinned at her.

EverestI gently patted Dayna’s hair and rubbed her back while she laid her head in my lap, tears streaming from her eyes. I didn’t want to push her, but I couldn’t imagine what was causing this kind of pain in her. I let her lay there and cry it out until she seemed to calm down enough to sit up. I passed her some tissues, and she blew her nose and dried her eyes.“Dayna, what’s going on?” I grabbed her hand, comforting her.She looked at me with big sad eyes, lip trembling.“R-remember the other n-night? W-when you asked ab-about my mate?” she stammered, trying to steady her breath. I nodded, not wanting to interrupt her.“I d-did find h-him. B-but h-he’s a h-h-human.” She buried her face in her hands, trembling. My jaw dropped. I hadn’t heard of a wolf being mated to a human in…pretty much forever. It was insanely rare. Some wolves through history had been mated to witches or other supernatural beings, but aside from Starrk…I don’t know if I’d ever heard of a wolf claiming a human

FinnLupin never showed for dinner, so I left some on a tray outside of her room. Everest had said she would try to talk to her tomorrow, but I knew it should be me. She was my family and she’d done so much for me. I needed to put her conscience at ease…it was the least I could do. Everest had remained downstairs while I returned to our room to shower and change out of my stained shirt. I should probably stop cooking in white, I shook my head. I pulled off the messy clothes and stepped into a steamy hot shower, lathering up my toned muscles and letting the hot water rise the day off my skin. My mind drifted to the last time I’d been in here with Everest. She’d been on her knees with her plush lips wrapped around my thick cock. Gods, she’d felt good. I could feel myself getting hard just remembering it. My fiery mate was the sexiest little thing I could have wished for. I closed my eyes and leaned forward, propping myself against the glass, while I stroked my growing erection. Her swee
