Chapter 79
Sadie
After Orion left, everyone went to their own devices. My parents decided to return to the castle and resume their majesty duties or give me a brother or sister, pretty sure it was the latter. Rebecca, Lela, and their mates went to their rooms while Seth adamantly carried me up to our room. Seth repeatedly told me I was still weak, and Caspian wasn’t going to have him let me do anything for the next week.
“We are leaving tomorrow, Love,” Seth curled up next to me in bed after a long soak in the tub.
“Really? Where? I just want to lay around and do nothing,” I curled my nose up to his mark and started kissing it. Seth g*****d and pulled me away.
“As much as I want to ravage you right here, I need you to rest.” Seth put the palm of his hand on my face and had his thumb rub my cheek. “We are going to the coast, there is a quiet cottage with no one around, and it will just be you and me for as long as we want. Someone will drop food for us and clean it while we walk the beach. I guess a ‘honeymoon,’ as some humans call it?” I laughed when he brought up the honeymoon. “It is the vacation you wanted, and I want to take you away from everyone and everything. Just us.”
“That sounds wonderful, Seth, thank you.” Gaia started purring, and Caspian did the same. “I love you; I missed you so much,” I started tearing up. I have been so weepy lately. I just can’t handle myself right now.
“Baby, I love you too. Everything is fine now, and we are going to relax, alright? No more excitement, just resting and relaxing.” I hummed in agreement, and it wasn’t long before both of us were sound asleep before the sun even set for the day.
****
The following day we rose just as the sun peeked in the windows. We had slept far more than twelve hours, and I thought I could sleep more. Seth snored lightly against my neck as he squeezed me tighter.
He wasn’t going to let go of me for a while, not after all the times we have spent time apart. Gaia continued to ramble in my head how Caspian had been a bit more overbearing than usual. “Plan on not leaving his sight for at least the next ten years,” she drawled on. “He wouldn’t let me sleep at all last night while you both slept. On and on how reckless we were trying to do it all alone. ‘We need to work together, Gaia,'” Gaia continued to drone.
“You are not listening!” she cried again as I rubbed my eye with my free hand. My other hand was stuck between Seth’s chest and mine. “Do you know how Caspian is?” she again began to ramble.
“Gaia, I do know how Caspian is. I have known him just a few weeks longer than you have. You have to realize that Caspian may seem like an overbearing, overprotective wolf, but it’s only because he loves us. He didn’t have any other wolf to even talk to because they were too afraid to be near him. You and I are the first to give him attention and Love; besides, we are his soul mate. It’s natural to want to protect.” Gaia sat in silence as she scratched her ear within my mind.
“Never thought of it that way,” she mused. “He can still chill out a bit.”
“See, we can both learn from each other, can’t we? And he will calm down. Give him some time. Seth will be the same, I’m sure.” I chuckled as she started to settle down.
Seth’s face began to frown as I looked up at him. He was dreaming, and it wasn’t a pleasant one. Trailing my finger across his cheek, he leaned towards it, seeking my touch. “It’s alright,” I whispered. “I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere.” Seth’s face began to relax as his body went into a deeper sleep.
….
By mid-morning, we were finally up from our small hibernation phase and dressed for our long trek to the sea. I was extremely excited because we would be passing by The Light Kingdom, which many shifters have not dared pass in such a long time.
“Have a great trip!” Rebecca waved as she put the last of the bags into the carriage.
“We will; thank you, Rebecca, for everything.” I gave her a tight hug as she kissed my cheek. “Thanks for being the sister I’ve always dreamed of,” I told her as she wiped a fake tear from her cheek.
“Oh stop, you’ll make me blush,” she waved her hand as she bid her farewell.
We were in the carriage, heading to the coast. Many have said the water was so clear and blue that you could see straight to the bottom. Tons of beautiful colors lived under the sea, which was hard to believe for someone who had never been to a beach in their life. Seth said he couldn’t even describe beautiful fish, dolphins, and other sea life that lived in the crystal blue waters. He did say we would have to watch for some sirens, which were basically mermaids. They weren’t too friendly to the land dwellers and kept to themselves, but when they did surface, they caused trouble. Seth thinks everything and everyone causes trouble.
Silly Alpha.
As we continued to travel, I looked out the window while sitting on Seth’s lap. We passed by several shifter communities that weren’t werewolves but different animals. We went through some pride of cats such as lions, tigers, and panthers. Some ran up beside the carriage and let out a few roars and would try and race us. Seth said they were welcoming me and congratulating me; the only way he knew was because he deals with their Alphas from time to time if they had anyone wanting to join the Warrior army. He was required to learn everyone’s cultures, and I guess I would be learning soon too.
I started smiling when I saw tiny cubs growling and racing us. The warrior wolves accompanying us would nip at them as they got too close, but I continued to wave and smile. Seth explained that some shifter communities and animals could shift at an earlier age than wolves could. Their spirit animal still had more control over their human forms and had not evolved as quickly. Werewolves had become more equal with their shifting and relationships with their own spirits, thus causing more houses to fit more with their human forms. Many tribes of the feline nature were bare minimum with huts, fires, and no electricity. They preferred their more natural side, keeping the land looking pure.
The feline variety of shifter women would often give birth to a baby born in animal form. With dragons, women almost always gave birth to a dragon instead of a human. My stomach turned at trying to imagine myself giving birth to something that didn’t look human. Thankfully, I wouldn’t have to deal with that.
Since the supernatural had started pairing up with different species, such as Rebecca and her mate, who was a vampire, I wondered how their children would turn out. After some light reading in the carriage that my mother was so nice to pack for me, I found that it was almost unheard of to have mixed mates at one time. It has happened, however. In which cases, the child would take the species of either the father or mother—no mixed babies.
Then how in the everlasting heavens is Diana a mixed-race? She holds both witch and vampire?! Now that Nathan is her mate, does this mean they will also have mixed children? My head started to ache as I continued reading, so I slammed the book shut and looked out the window.
Seth was nose deep in some notebook making notes about something or other. I smiled, remembering what we did in the carriage when we first arrived. I didn’t get a great view of Bergarian, but I got a great view of other things, that was for sure.
We passed the Moon Kingdom borders and headed into the Light Kingdom; the entire area was lighter. As we entered the forest, there were houses in the trees as I stuck my head out the window. Several elve children waved as they picked flowers and threw them into the carriage. Many landed on Seth’s lap, and I couldn’t help but laugh as he grumbled at them.
We had several warriors staying in cabins far from ours to protect us and keep a lookout for any danger, but Seth said it was only for precaution. He couldn’t imagine anything else happening to us after all the drama we have had so far in our relationship.
After a few more hours of sitting in the carriage, I became hot and feverish. I sat up and wiped my forehead, and Seth looked up from some papers he was reading. “Love, what’s wrong? Why are you sweating?”
“I,… don’t know. I just feel so hot. I feel weird. Gaia isn’t really saying much either. Is she sick?” The open window finally pushed in a breeze that calmed me and made me feel much better. Maybe the sea air was just what I needed. “Mmm, that feels nice,” I commented. “We must be close.”
Seth looked at me, and his eyes darkened, and he dropped his papers. The once calm Alpha working on papers suddenly dropped everything and came to my side and buried his head into my neck, and smelled me deeply. His touch left not sparks but fire-like touches across my skin. It felt so inhuman that heaven and hell were touching me at the same time. His lips grazed my marking spot, and I let out a loud m**n that made me blush. What was this?
“What’s happening to me?” I whispered to Seth. He continued to k**s up and down my neck and kneeled before me in my seat. He kissed my stomach and laid his head in my lap, and took a deep breath. “Oh f**k,” he whined while I heard a rumble in his chest.. “Seth,” I whispered as I rubbed my hands through his hair.
“Baby,” he growled lowly. “You’re going into heat. F**k.” Seth grabbed my thighs, spread them apart, lifted up the dress I was wearing, and buried his face inside. His nose ran across my bundle of nerves through my underwear, and I let out a shaky breath. “Oh goddess,” I breathed.
The carriage suddenly came to a halt, and Seth cursed under his breath. “Stay here, do not move. We have unmated warriors, and I need to get rid of them,” he commanded me as he left the carriage. My body started to become hot again with Seth not being there, and I heard several growls and Seth yelling. Overprotective much?
Things started to get quiet, and I was getting really uncomfortable. I was having period like cramps in my stomach, and it was causing me to g***n, but I was also extremely horny.
“Seth?” I mindlinked.
Nothing.
“Seth! Caspian!” After not hearing anything, I opened the door to see the warriors eyeing Seth warily.
“What the heck is going on? Let’s just get in the cottage. I need a bath or something. I feel terrible,..Seth!” Seth’s eyes were glazed over when he turned to me. They were black obsidian. I knew I was dealing with Caspian, but he looked feral, and the warriors were trembling in fear. I couldn’t help but get turned on. Everything about him was turning me on. Good gracious, I wanted him to bend me over and take me on the grass.
Seth and Caspian started stalking towards me, and the warriors stood still. One of them spoke up, “Luna, what do we do? What is going on?” They must not have detected my heat yet if this truly was it. Mother told me briefly about heat before we left, saying it should be soon if I hadn’t had one. I guess Gaia and my mother have a better handle on my body than I do.
“I’m in heat. You need to shift and leave and don’t come back. Get some mated wolves to stand guard. GO!” Seth started growling when he heard them shifting and was going to turn around. I didn’t need him going crazy and killing the lot of them.
“The chase,…” Gaia linked me.
“The chase,…” Gaia linked me.
“What?”
“Alpha’s like to chase. Why don’t we give him a run to the cottage? It isn’t far.” It was just over a hundred yards, and I could maybe make it in my human form. I gave a little smirk and started swiftly running, pounding my feet in the ground. Looking back, I saw Seth and Caspian giving me a confused look while I smiled back. All of the possessiveness was forgotten when he saw his mate running away from him.
Seth let out a loud growl and started to chase. I could hear him running, and I couldn’t help but spill laughter all over the path as I tried to keep running. My cramps were hurting, but the adrenaline of Seth catching me was keeping me alive. Even though I had a good head start, he caught up quickly and picked me up bridal style. “Mate, where are you going?” he teased. He latched onto my mark with his teeth. I g*****d and put my hands in his hair. He wasn’t playing today. He wanted to claim me over and over.
“Aren’t you supposed to take care of me during heat?” I said seductively. Seth only nodded, kicked the door in, and swiftly took me to the one-bedroom cottage. It was small and quaint and reminded me of my time with Aunt Maria while I grew up. The bedroom was the first door on the right. The king-sized bed almost took up the whole room, and while I wanted to admire the cottage, the heat of my body had other ideas.
Seth ripped off my clothes as well as his. I didn’t have time to think before a large pain in my stomach ripped through me. I didn’t know what would help. I prayed Seth knew.
A husky voice started speaking, and when I finally got my bearings, I realized Seth and Caspian were speaking, almost at the same time. “I f*****g need you, baby,” his nose trailed up my neck, “I need your body pressed against mine and feel the warmth that is meant for me. I need your smell all over me as I devour you, and your fingers wrap around my body while I taste both of your lips.” I let out a whimper, and Seth latched on to my chest.
My nails elongated as the feeling of his body on mine made the pain subside, but the heat was still there. I trailed my claws on his back, drawing a little b***d. “Babe, I need you. Please, Goddess, I need something.” Seth grabbed my other globe, his nips and bites started to become more aggressive, and my eyes started rolling in the back of my head. Wow, he felt amazing.
I pulled his hair and he let out a g***n and made his way back up to my mouth. I nipped his l*p, “make me cum.” I commanded him, and Seth looked up in amusement. “Your Luna commands on me is so damn sexy.”
Seth traveled to my core and immediately parted my legs, and buried his tongue deep into my cunt. I let out a squeal as his tongue circled my nub. It didn’t take much for me to fall over the cliff as I screamed out his name. “Goddess, I just want to eat you up.” He continued to mutilate my insides with his mouth and finally drove two fingers in my cavern.
His mouth took a break from my bundle of nerves but continued to pump his now three fingers into me fervently. The heat of his breath on my neck only made me shiver in delight until he latched onto my mark. My hands dove down to his h**s and latched onto his raging manhood. It was pulsing, and his h**s automatically jerked as I held on tight to him. Growls rumbled in his chest as he continued to buck his h**s. My core trembled, and my mouth fell open. A hot wet tongue dove into my mouth, and one of his hands pinched my chest and fell over again.
I could have sworn I was wetting myself, but as the o****m continued, Seth sniffed the air and g*****d. His mouth left mine and started licking while panting in my juices. “f*****g hell,” he murmured into my cavern, which made me c*m even more.
“Stop playing and f**k me. I need you!” I yelled at him. The o****m helped, but I needed more. I wanted him to slip himself in me and pound me like there was no tomorrow.
“So f*****g perfect, Love. This is mine, all mine.” He slapped my core which gave me a jolt of pleasure and pain, and he lined up to drive me home. He hit me so hard with one fluid movement I could probably feel him in my stomach. His thrusts were relentless, hungry, passionate. His arms were on either side of my head as he moved his h**s in rhythm.
“I love you, Seth,” I said as he continued to dive into me. He grunted a few times. His muscles and veins kept protruding from his arms. “I f*****g love you, baby,” he said, almost breathless. Taking in his body, I admired his tattoos, his body, and piercings. If I died today, I would be a happy woman. Who knew I would find love in a man like this.
He took one of his hands and put it under my butt, and tilted my h**s until he hit a whole new pleasure spot. He continued to ram into me, and my body shuttered. The o****m was going to be intense, I latched my arms around his a*s and my claws came out and scratched him. He g*****d, and his thrusts became sporadic. His a*s was so toned and defined it drove me crazy.
“c*m with me now, baby.” With the command in his Alpha voice and my desire to please and settle myself, we came together, biting into his marking spot. He was mine and I was his.
Seth came down to nuzzle my neck and gave me feather-like k****s from my shoulder up to my mouth. The fire in my body was sedated, for now. I could almost feel the calm before the storm as Seth started sniffing again. I had a feeling it was going to be a long night for both of us.
