My ass backed up, meeting him thrust for thrust. It was hot, and heavy, and our sweat made our bodies slick. We were both holding out, giving each other as much pleasure as we could. My ass was feeling exquisitely sore, but I wanted more.
“Fuck, I will not last much longer, little shark.” Our breaths were panting; my hand job was getting reckless as I felt his cock contract in my ass. As he released, I released too, and the tickle of his canines brushed my neck. His torso was flat on me as he bit into the soft tissue of my shoulder. I let out a scream of ecstasy as I came over and over, drenching the sheets below me. Sean let go of the last grunt as he filled me and pulled out slowly, falling to the bed. His cock was covered in his own seed as I straddled him, nibbling his neck while his cock continued to drip.
Finding my marking spot, I licked it twice and plunged my own fangs into his shoulder. He moaned my name while his cock twitched and leaked again.
Our pants filled the room as he wrapped me in his arms and buried his nose into my neck. “Mine,” he breathed harshly. Our liquids were all over each other, reminding me of the pure pleasure only a mate could give.
“And you are mine,” I breathed as his lips captured mine again in a slow, tantalizing kiss.
Our bodies continued to quiver under the sheets that Sean threw over us. Touching was going to be our thing. We couldn’t get enough. Either my hand was on his face or chest, while his hands were around my waist or ass. I was at a place I never wanted to leave. Unfortunately, our bliss didn’t last for long.
“Son, are you in there?” There was a loud knock at the door. My father’s booming voice came from the doorway.
“Shit,” I whispered. I wrapped a sheet around my body, and Sean stayed in bed, leaning back against the headboard. His muscles rippled as he put his arms behind his head. I almost wanted a second round. Sean winked and nodded to the door.
Opening it, I found my father breathing harshly with his face pale. “Melina has gone off to find Osirus!” he spat out.
“What!? That’s insane! I’ll get dressed and…”
“Lucca? Did you find your mate?” Father pointed to my shoulder. It was red, and I honestly felt weak. I swayed a bit as I put my hand on the doorway. Sean quickly ran up behind me, with his boxers on, to steady me.
“Are you…?” My father’s questioning gaze wanted to ask what he already knew. Looking at both of us, he gave a smile.
“The Goddess doesn’t make mistakes.” He patted my good shoulder while shaking Sean’s hand. “Welcome to the family. Now, you can’t help because you have both been marked. Go bond. Your brothers are heading out. I’m going myself.”
“Father, no! I’ll go! I’m the strongest of us!”
“No!” my father said sternly. “Don’t. You are weak after a bonding. Melina would be furious. Now go, take care of my son.”
Without another word, my father left me with Sean to go find my little sister.
Chapter Sixty-Eight
Osirus
Kaneledthechargeas the witches ran deeper into the wood. The trees grew sparse as their trunks widened. I had mounted Montu as I continued to venture further inward. Alaneo was behind me while Finley took his mate, Opal, back to the palace.
Now that the threat had retreated from the area, he could fly her back safely. The bleeding had stopped for the moment, but her body was still pale. Opal drifted in and out of consciousness as Finley lifted her to his body. “Finley, take her back and stay with her. The bond will help her heal.” Finley gave a grateful nod and spread his wings to fly her back.
Kane headed the charge. The wolves howled in victory, which could be too soon for comfort. Their ways of torture and magic were almost unbearable. Though everyone thought of the fae as tricky and sneaky creatures, vengeful witches were on another level. They could singe your nerves, inflict their injury, and bring your nerves back to life in a matter of seconds, so the pain hit you all at once.
Kane howled, his half-wolf-half-human form, scaring any remaining animals that were in the area. His black fur sprouted over his body, and his claws were thickened with blood. Enormous teeth lengthened over his muscular jaw as he licked them, slowly savoring the taste of his enemies. As much as I had messed with him in our past encounters, he scared the shit out of me. I’d never let him know that, though.
Clara would never let harm come to me. She and I had a sibling-like bond, but Kane didn’t feel that way. He would rip my throat out in an instant the moment I ever upset his mate.
The claws of the wolves penetrated the dirt, flying upward as our horses strode alongside. Howls from the trackers and runners had found the source of the coven. As our horses arrived, we saw several warlocks run right into a brick fence that was six feet tall. It was overgrown with vines and thorns and dirt, and muck covered any scent of the magical wards that encompassed it.
“What now?” I heard one wolf say. “Charge it?” Kane grunted as he walked closer to the wall. The wall had been there for many years, erected during the Shifter War to keep fae and shifters on their side of the land.
Kane took his claw, meaning to slice through the vines only to have his hand sucked into the ward. “It’s penetrable,” his wolf Torin growled. “But this is too easy.” Several wolves growled as they pawed the ground, mouths still dripping with blood from the previous battle.
As a group, we had taken down at least half of their own warriors; the question was how many were left inside. This could be a trap, and even numbers wouldn’t be able to save us.
“There aren’t that many.” Tulip strode out with Alec by her side. She had on just an oversized shirt over her body while Alec sported his birthing attire. “There aren’t that many unethical witches, and the ones who were driven to power hid here. There may be one hundred and twenty witches in total, but they are powerful.”
Alec held onto Tulip by her waist. Not wanting to let her go again. I didn’t blame him; he almost lost her. “You shouldn’t be back here, Tulip. We came to rescue you, and you now come back to join the fight?” Tulip laughed while standing in front of Alec so she could hide his growing erection for her.
“I was a warrior in my pack, and now being mated to one of the strongest warriors of Alpha Kane’s pack, it was an easy decision. I live for the fight.” She snarled. “Now, let’s kick some ass so my sister can get hitched.”
