I pushed him back to a seated position on the couch. I crossed my hands and pulled my top off throwing it across the room. Chase’s lust filled eyes only encouraged me. I yanked his shirt off as he chuckled. “We have time, Sweetheart. We don’t need to rip each other’s clothes off today.”

I kissed him and trailed kisses over to his ear. I admitted, “But I ache for you. Ever since I saw your wolf defending me, I even dreamed of you before. When I saw you on that platform announcing Ted as the Beta Male, I wanted you.” I bit his neck.

I whispered against his skin, “I was ready to punch Ted if you were Matt. I almost fell out of my tree in relief when I saw no mark on your neck. You make me feel some type of way that I never have before. I want and need you.” He stiffened. I alternated nipping at him with my teeth and placing feather light kisses down his torso.

I grabbed his shorts when I reached them, and he lifted his hips so I could remove them. My mouth watered. I couldn’t stop myself from taking him in my mouth. Chase closed his eyes and groaned. I swirled my tongue around his tip. His hips bucked, pushing himself further into my mouth. I used my left hand to play with his balls as I moved my mouth up and down his length.

I pulled my mouth off of him and spit into my hand, letting my hand take the place of my mouth. I gently licked and sucked on his balls. He hissed, “Fuck Lexi…” I smiled and took my shorts off with my spare hand. I stood and straddled Chase. Slowly I lowered myself on him.

He growled, “Shit…. fuck…. Lexi….” Chase gripped my waist tightly, but I didn’t go any faster. Once he was fully inside me, I moved my hands to the back of the couch. I started building us slowly, but steadily increased our pace. Chase was grunting and moaning then without warning I started using my speed.

His eyes went pitch black and he growled loudly shaking the house. His hands roughly pulled my lips down to his. He kissed me hard. I never stopped moving and I threw my head back to scream his name. His hands were tangled up in my hair as he roared his own release.

We were staring at each other. Chase smirked about to start another round when we heard what sounded like an explosion outside. We both looked out the window and my jaw dropped. There was my ex and what was obviously a witch, trying to get around Haley’s fairy charms to get inside the barrier.

The witch screamed as her entire body began to convulse while she stood with her palms outstretched. The former Lieutenant actually looked scared, and I knew he should be. Haley would make any of her charms punish anyone who tried to get around her magic tenfold.

He grabbed the witch trying to move her away, but he was flung backwards into a tree several feet away. Chase growled. I grabbed him, “They can’t get inside.” Chase gritted out, “Matt is on the way.” Ted made it first though. I screamed as I saw him blur onto the scene.

I grabbed Chase’s shirt and ran outside. Ted got a shot off at our former Lieutenant, but missed because he took off running. The witch took a hit in the thigh and screamed. I ran after my ex. I wasn’t going to show mercy as I passed through my barrier. He’d hurt Anne. I caught him easily and pushed him. To my astonishment, he disappeared from sight.

I yelled, “WHAT THE FUCK?!” Ted was right behind me, and Chase was behind him. Matt brought up the rear. We scoured the area. Chase and Matt were standing at the place where the Troll disappeared. Chase sighed, “It’s a holoport.” I cringed, “They know where I live.” Chase growled, “Can they get in?” I admitted, “I don’t think so.” I ran back to get my phone.

Chase was right behind me. He grabbed my arm and pleaded, “Stop doing that without me, Sweetheart.” He kissed me hard. When we pulled back, I looked into his eyes. I surmised, “You’re mad.” Chase admitted, “I’m beyond mad. We had him. He should’ve never gotten into this territory without being caught. When I find out how he did someone is in BIG fucking trouble.”

I asked, “Do you have any ideas?” Chase said, “I’m questioning my father first.” I gasped, “He loves you; he wouldn’t do that.” Chase sounded sad when he replied, “I have to be sure.” I frowned. I didn’t think it was his dad. The local coven though maybe. If that was the case, Arion’s ex-mate could help. She was still friends with Haley.

I called Haley. She answered, “Hey, Lex.” I laughed, “Random question.” Haley said, “Ok, what’s the question?” I tried to sound casual, “Can a witch take down the protections on my house?” Haley snorted, “If you’re going to insult me, I won’t answer the damn phone right away when you call me.” I pressed, “Fair enough. Could they think they could?”

Haley said, “I’m sure some witch bitches have delusions of grandeur. So, sure. If I was a normal Fae; a dark witch could take down my protections. You’d know though if they tried. It would sound like a bomb going off. If the witch kept pushing, they’d get electrocuted, they could actually die. Did someone try to take down my protections? I’ll kill a witch bitch!”

I admitted, “They did.” She yelled, “UGH INFUCKINGSULTING BITCHES! Seriously! THE NERVE! As if I’m some regular fairy. I’M THE DAMN PRINCESS! I’m used to this shit from the full blooded fairies, BUT WITCH BITCHES! OHHH I will put those fuckers in ditches!”

She paused then yelled, “NO, ERIC! It’s fucking DISRESPECTFUL! I’ve had it with them. They’ve got to go!” She was quiet for a second then exploded, “WHY WON’T ANYONE AGREE WITH ME?! DARK WITCH BITCHES SHOULD BE PUT IN FUCKING DITCHES!”

Chase walked outside shaking with silent laughter despite the situation. Haley was always good for that. She could always make you laugh no matter what was going on. I laughed outright and told her, “Let me know if you want my help. I’ve officially come over to your team.”

Haley squealed, “YES! Did you hear that, Eric? Lexi agrees! Team Fairy/Hackura and Hood unite! Those fuckers are in SO MUCH TROUBLE! Witch bitches WILL get put in ditches.” I interjected, “That’s not the saying. You know that. right?”

Haley grumbled, “It’s my damn saying. They belong in ditches and it RHYMES! THIS REALM LOVES RHYMES! Seriously, this realm does few things right BUT BURNING THOSE BITCHES AT THE STAKE WAS THE RIGHT IDEA!” I wiped a few tears away.

Haley ranted, “Can we go back to that? Not the humans though because they were wrong, and probably killed other humans. Supernatural’s though, we would know if they were truly a dark witch.” Haley yelled at someone else, “FINE! You BE that way! I’m calling Aiden! He could declare war against them. THEN I could kill them. Wait, BJOURN! You could do it too! Declare war against dark witches. FOR INSULTING ME! I AM INFUCKINGSULTED!”

I couldn’t hear his answer, but I knew it would be colorful. I might have to text Logan to ask how that meeting went because Haley would have one. Haley told me, “Lex, I’ll come by later. I’m going to add ANOTHER layer of awfulness. WAIT! Why would a witch try to get in?” Before I could answer she put it together, “IS THIS ABOUT THE MOTHERFUCKING TROLL?” I admitted, “He was here. I accidentally pushed him into the damn holoport when I caught him.”

Haley cursed, “MOTHER FUCKING SHIT BALLS! WHEN will you people listen to me? I know when people should die! Next time I say someone needs to die YOU HAD BETTER LISTEN! Lexi, I’m going to talk to all my brothers and try to get them to declare war.”

I laughed, “They won’t do that.” Haley grumbled, “Which is why I should be in charge. I’m right. One day ALL of them will admit that I’m right. Do you know what day that will be? WHEN IT BITES US ALL IN THE ASS! I actually like that saying. It’s apt because I believe it will metaphorically and LITERALLY bite us in the ass. It better not be my ass because I said they needed to fucking go. Some dark witch is going to do some kind of horrible shit, and everyone will be all ‘Ohhhh Haley was right’ and Haley will be like THAT’S RIGHT MOTHERFUCKERS!”

I laughed, “I’m sure.” I looked outside to see Matt and Chase were in tears, they were laughing so hard. Even Ted was laughing so hard he was waving his hands trying to get his breath. Then I remembered Ted shot a witch. Where was SHE?

Haley drew my attention back to her, “Then I’m going to charm the area around yours, Ted, and Sally’s places. NO MORE FUCKING HOLOPORTS!” I asked, “Can you do that?” Haley said, “Well, I don’t actually know exactly. I’m going to FIND a fucking way though. I can booby trap the area to do fun shit. That’s what I’ll do.”

I pointed out, “I do need to be able to walk around here though.” Haley said, “Only those who intend you harm would trip my booby traps.” I agreed with that, “I’m in.” Haley clapped, “Ok, I’ll be there in two hours. I will take the ENTIRE one hundred and twenty minutes to convince SOMEONE I’m right. Dark witch bitches gotta fucking go.” I laughed, “See you then.”

I walked outside. I announced, “So, Haley’s angry.” Ted said, “Umm according to the words these two actually managed to repeat she’s beyond angry.” I laughed, “She’s trying to get one of her brothers to declare war on the dark witches.”

Matt managed to say, “They won’t.” I agreed, “I know. Haley tries to get her Hackura family to declare war against the witches about every six months.” Ted laughed, “That’s true, she does.” Chase sobered up, “One of her brother’s mates is a witch.” I smiled, “Not a dark witch, and Haley likes her. Speaking of witches, where is the witch Ted shot?”
