Page 154 of Seeking Hades' Ember

"And do you, Ember, Goddess of Empathy and Soul Binding, swear to me, the witness, the Werewolf pack of the Black Claw and the entire Celestial Kingdom that you take Hades, God of the Underworld, the darkness to your light? To have him throughout eternity to love, to cherish and complete your soul?" Another ring was pulled from the Sphere, gold with intricate designs spelling with the same inscription as hers. The gold ring would always remind me that she was my light.

"I do!" she yelled for everyone in the back to hear. Wolves howled while the gods began clapping frantically. Probably because I'd stop being a pain in their ass.

"With the power granted in me, I pronounce you officially mated and bonded for eternity!"

I didn't wait for Selene to grant me permission; I pulled her by her waist and placed a searing kiss on her mouth. The fire and urgency were real. Her fingers trailed into my hair with one hand while pulling on my black suit collar with the other. Pulling her beautiful lips, I slipped my tongue into her mouth. Her moans filled my throat.

No one bothered to stop us. Why the hell would they? This was my mate, my one and only. I was death. They would have a death sentence if they even tried. Hearing Dionysus yelling some sort of nonsense, large whistles flew and began booming up above.

Ember pulled from the kiss while I whined at the loss of her pouty lips. "Hades look," Ember awed while large white fireworks thundered into the sky. Blue whisps surrounded Ember and began pulling her hair out of her braided crown. Flowers fell all around her, and if she couldn't look more stunning, she surprised me again. Her laugh filled my ears while pulling me closer to her. Her chest pressed to mine while pulling her closer.

My hand willed her a dark crown, full of deep red rubies and diamonds. It was constructed of the finest platinum, hard as steel and unable to be destroyed by the power I invested into it. I willed my crown above my head, black with onyx diamonds in its center. Skulls decorated mine instead of the hell flowers that were on Embers'.

Ember pulled the crown from her head; her mouth hung open in amazement. "Oh my gosh, this is beautiful." Her fingers traced the outside, looking at each jewel. "This is too much," she whispered. Taking the crown from her hands and placing it back where it belonged, I put a hair strand behind her ear.

"It belongs there, it belongs to you, just as my heart belongs to you, my sweet Ember." My mouth descended again to capture her lips.

"So pretty!" I heard the younger pups yell. Screaming, shouting, and even some jumping into the water.

Ember came back up for air while I held her close. "You are mine," I growled, putting a hand around the back of her neck, my thumb tickling her chin. "Mine to love, mine to fuck, my everything." Ember giggled again and grabbed my dick while the congregation started the party without us.

"And this is mine to ride, huh?" Ember smiled while nipping my bottom lip.
