I spanked his thigh again and trailed it up grazing his hard length up his chest to his chin. I asked, “Did I stutter?” He grinned, “No.” I corrected, “No, Mistress.” He practically threw his lust at me, and I nearly buckled and begged him to have sex with me right here which he knew. I stood tall though.
The whole place was practically not breathing waiting for his response. He stood, “Yes, Mistress.” I heard a lot of gasps. Alexander linked, “If someone here dies for repeatedly hitting me with a crop and telling me to come with them that’s on you.” I laughed back in our link. He was teasing and we both knew it.
Cayden followed me out of the bar, putting his hands around my waist, and I smacked his hand with the crop. He sent me that I was in for it. I went to where I’d popped in. He opened a portal and threw me through it. He pulled the charm off my finger and slammed his lips onto mine.
He said, “God, I missed you. What happened? Are you ok?” I told him, “No talking.” His eyes searched mine. He sent me we were talking later, but for now he was putting aside. I was going to claim the hell out of him.
Flashback Ends
My Uncle Logan tugged my sleeve gently pulling me back to the present. He was evaluating me. Hendrix frowned, “Cass, if she’s messing with you...” Milana snorted cutting him off, “Messing with her? We passed that SO very long ago.”
Hendrix threw his hands up asking, “Why the hell didn’t you all say anything?” I answered, “Because I have it handled. In two days, I’ll kick her ass again” Milana teased, “Ohhh, you’ll be rid of her the second your mother meets her. Cora is somehow magically not around whenever your mother is here. She’ll sniff out that crazy bitch from a mile away.”
I shrugged, “My mom would do that, but she will let me handle it.” Milana snorted, “Sure, after she threw Cora across the room with her wind and put her in a tornado maybe.” I smiled, “I could do that too.” Milana laughed, “Yes you could.”
My Uncle hugged me warning, “It can only go so much longer before we do something about it.” I smiled knowing they didn’t know about her being naked in my house. Uncle Bjourn would’ve killed her. There would’ve been a line to get to her first that Cayden would’ve been at the front of. I told him, “I intend to take care of it in a few days.” Uncle Logan nodded and walked away.
Hendrix immediately asked, “Does Cayden know about this?” Rain huffed in my head. I evaded, “Does Cayden know I can handle catty bitches all on my own? Yes. Does Cayden know that I hate Cora with every fiber of my being? Yes. Does Cayden know that she still wants him even though I’m in the picture? No, but that’s because he doesn’t listen to any of us. We ALL know she still wants him. He’s the one who doesn’t see it. He just says she cheated on him so she can’t want him.”
Hendrix groaned, “What has she done?” I replied, “That’s a very long list that we don’t have time to get into.” Hendrix frowned. Milana snorted, “It also involves burned sheets.” I winked, “Singed sheets.” Sunlight burns equals singed not burned. I didn’t have fire powers, or she’d be dead and the bed would’ve been on fire.
Rain grumbled, “Washing those sheets wouldn’t have gotten her off them.” I agreed, “They had to go.” I’d even snapped and replaced the bed and mattress because there was no way I’d ever sleep in a bed she’d laid on naked.
Hendrix whisper yelled, “You went to her house?” I snorted, “No.” Hendrix’s eyes widened. He asked, “She came to yours?!” I smiled and threw him a wink. I said, “I didn't say that.” Hendrix groaned, “Oh shit. You’ve got to tell Cayden.”
I reasoned, “He’s not going to be back until my tournament. If then…” Hendrix interrupted, “Cayden is not going to miss your tournament. He’s been having anxiety about it for months.” I raised an eyebrow, “His anxiety is about my tournament?” Hendrix smirked, “He’s proud of you when you fight, but he also HATES seeing you fight.” I rolled my eyes, “I’ll be fine.”
I looked at my phone to check the time. I told them both, “I’ve got to pop to my parents’ house. I promised Angela I’d be there. She’s got something that I just HAVE to see.” Milana practically cooed, “Ilove that little girl.” I smiled, “I do too. I waited a long time for my little sister, and she certainly doesn’t disappoint. She’s only six and she’s a firecracker.” I waved and popped to my parents’ house.
I smiled at my brother, “Hi Alexander.” I gave him a hug. I asked, “How are you doing?” He shrugged. I linked him, “Alexander?” He sighed, “I just….” He trailed off. I finished, “You just miss Melanie?”
He’d confessed all to me after he’d talked to EJ at Elise’s Luna ceremony about how he thought Melanie McAlister was his mate. I’d be grumpier about the whole thing if I was him. A mate was a big deal. I was spitting mad at Jason, but at the same time it just didn’t jive for me.
He was a good guy, and my brother is a catch. Jason must just be dense to be unaware of Alexander’s feelings for Melanie. Gia and Tory watched them closely at every event I wasn’t at. They both reported Jason seemed confused by Alexnader’s mood swings. They swore despite his Beta blood, he clearly didn’t know Alexanderlike Melanie.
Honestly, if Alexander wasn’t a good guy, he’d ask one of our cousins to portal Melanie back here. She was living her dream, and he wanted her to do that, even though he desperately wanted her here with him. That’s just who Alexander was.
I asked him out loud, “Do you have any idea what we are doing here?” Alexander laughed, “We just all had to be here.” Angela and TJ popped in. I linked TJ, “What’s going on?” TJ admitted, “I don’t know. I’m locked out of this one too.” I bit my lip knowing that meant it had to do with TJ himself.
I linked Alexander, “That confirmed it for me that this is one hundred percent about TJ.” Alexander told me, “Lexi and Chase are coming over. Mom invited them because Angela asked her to. Emmett said Chase actually got a separate invitation on his desk too.”
I speculated, “What if Lexi is pregnant and it’s with TJ’s mate?” Alexander chuckled quietly, “Stranger things have happened. Mom will scream so loud though.” I bit my lip knowing he was right. EJ and Elise walked in. I winked at Elise, and she waved.
I popped to EJ and gave him a hug. My dad spoke, “Hi, Princess.” I turned around and smiled, “Daddy!” I threw my arms around him. He held me tightly. He whispered, “We miss you around here.” I pulled back, “I come back all the time.” My dad smiled, “It’s a good thing too since there are too many people around here who can pop or portal me to you if you don’t visit enough.” He grinned at me.
I popped over to my mom. She smiled saying, “You look beautiful, Cass.” I hugged her. She quickly spoke the space unheard chant then asked, “So what’s this I hear about a blonde fucktard who needs her skull cracked open? I think I heard her name was Corursula.”
I bit my lip, “You heard huh?” She nodded, “Yes, I fucking did years ago. I didn’t like her even when she was child clamoring to be around Cayden which I did not allow as his babysitter. Which brings me to my next question. Why isn’t she fucking dead yet?” I answered, “Several reasons. She’s one of my people and in the army. Why? I couldn’t tell you. She’s not a skilled warrior.”
I blew out a breath, “Why isn’t she dead? Well, I want to take her down in front of everyone. I want them to know I am Cayden’s mate for a reason. Plus, no lying, cheating, bitch is going to take me down. Nor is she better for my man.”
My mom smiled, “That’s my girl. Are you wearing the traditional Commander’s mate fighting outfit?” I teased her, “Well, that would be no fun. I might have embellished it a little.” My mom laughed, “Is your dad going to have a heart attack?” I winced, “It’s possible, but I didn’t change it for him.”
My mom assured me, “I’ll handle your dad, don’t you worry.” I patted her hand, “I never do. I know you’ve got dad.” She nodded, “I do. If you ever need to talk about putting bitches heads in a glass dome, you know who to come to. Or just to talk about kicking their asses. Because I’m one action away from kicking her ass myself. No one messes with my babies. She’s been too obvious, and I’ve listened to too many damn people say I can’t kill her.”
I admitted, “I figured you were holding everyone back.” She snorted, “I convinced your dad to let you handle your problems. They held me back from killing her ass several times. Once would’ve been very easy since she was near death after I snapped you into a dominatrix outfit years ago.” Damn she’d known the whole time.
I kissed the top of her head, “I love you mom. I promise I’ve got this.” My mom nodded, “Which is why there’s isn’t a blonde fucktard whose name is Corursula hung upside down FROM A FUCKING TREE slowly bleeding to death! It was one of my many options for how to kill her.” I laughed.
