Chapter 20
“Yes." I whisper.
I tilt my head back as Sterling’s lips travel up my neck to my ear and jaw.
“My beautiful witch.” He pants on my lips. His mouth consumes mine.
His strong arms hold me in his lap as his hard member slams my pussy.
“Yes!...” I moan. My head rolling to his shoulder. My nails digging into his back as he lifts my ass up and down on his dick.
He reaches up and grabs my hair. He pulls my head back. “I want to see you when I make you come.” He growls.
He thrusts harder. “Sterling…yes!...like that!”
His fingers bruise my ass cheek.
His teeth are clenched as he fucks me fast.
“Yes, Luna…come for me…” He grinds.
My nails grab into his hair.
My pussy tightens and my climax crest
“YES!!”
His dick goes in deeper and harder.
“Come for me!” He growls loud.
I’m screaming as I throw my head back.
My climax crashes. My body shakes as my come flows.
His breathes turn to growls. His eyes glow midnight blue.
His canines descend. “I make you mine.”
He pulls my head to the side.
I prepared myself for his chosen mark. His teeth drip with venom.
As his chest vibrates with dominance, the itch inside quivers. Sparks the nerves in my body.
“No!” I push off him.
“What?” He gives me a look of shock and confusion.
I get off the bed and pull on my robe.
I turn to his naked body on my bed. “Get out.” I grit.
“Samantha…” His voice was concerned.
“I SAID GET OUT!” I yell as my hands fill with lightning at my sides. The room fills with a strong wind and my hair flies around my head.
He gets up and grabs his clothes.
He stops at the door. “I apologize if I upset you.”
He opens the door and walks out closing the door behind him.
I raise my electrified hands and ball them into fists. The lightning fades into my skin. I push the magic down, but my wolf isn’t so easy.
She’s been restless for days. Tonight even more so.
I walk out to my balcony and lean on the railing. I was so willing to take Sterling’s mark, but something got in the way.
I hear caws off in the distance getting louder.
I turn to the sound and Muriel comes out of the dark.
She's cawing loud and frequent.
She lands in the railing, jumping erratically and flapping her wings.
I walk over and raise my hand to her. “Shhh…my lovely”
I stroke her back as she tucks her wings.
She caws again.
I grab her beak in my hand. “Show me.”
I look into her shining black eye. My vision switches into hers.
I let her go and she flies.
I lean on the railing as I watch what she sees.
She flies over the dark forest toward the volcano.
She comes around and flies to the lagoon at the edge of it.
She swoops and looks at the ground.
The army comes out of the sea and walks onto the beach.
Muriel flies around again. She shows me the large man walking out of the crashing surf. His body is huge. He held a large trident as he walks onto the beach.
I break my contact. “Titus.” I grind.
I grab my dress and change.
I rush out of my room to find Sterling.
****
We wait in the cover of darkness for Titus and his army to approach.
The wind blows through the trunks of the trees. Blowing the bottom of my dress and hair to the side.
My bare feet sink into the soft forest floor.
My eyes turn from one side to the other, searching for any signs of movement.
Titus is out if his element coming this far inland. It will be to our advantage.
The wind blows the salt air.
“Get ready.” I say in a low deep voice.
Sterling links to ready his army.
My hands fall to my sides. Small bolts travel from my wrists to my fingertips. I stretch and twist them in anticipation.
My ear twitches. My army stirs.
Sounds of snapping twigs and rustling of forest dirt come from the distance.
I tilt my head forward as I spy the first of Titus' army.
The women prowl through the trees. Tridents at the ready.
We are hard to see at first because it’s so dark here, but eventually we’re seen.
The women rush and put up a front once we come into their sights.
I look at them and smirk. My head scanning the line of fighters.
From the center, Titus comes out. “Sterling! Hand over the witch!” He booms.
Sterling walks slowly past me. “What makes you think I would even entertain that idea, Titus?”
“If you value your life, you will do as requested.” He says.
Just as he finishes his sentence, Zander joins his side. His eyes glowing solid white. Jake joins his other side. His eyes glowing solid black. Titus’ eyes glow solid blue.
If they’re here, it can only mean one thing.
“Sam!”
I turn my head slightly as Darcy pushes his way through and runs into the gap between the armies.
“Samantha…” His face looked pained as he stood with his hands at his sides.
The itch.
My mouth goes small as I look into his blue eyes.
“You’re here.” I say in a dark tone.
“Yeah, baby. I came for you. Please…come back.” He pleads.
I look at him for a moment.
Slowly, my mouth spreads to a grin.
I start laughing. Laughing hard and looking around at Sterling and my army.
“With you?” I say as I laugh.
“Sam…” He says quietly.
“What makes you think I’d leave with you?” My face changes to anger and annoyance.
He steps forward. “Because I…I love you, Sam…and I know inside, you love me too.” He motions a hand to me.
The itch.
I laugh again and my army laughs too.
My face falls and I tilt my head forward. “Kill them.”
My army explodes in black smoke and reappears in amongst Titus' army.
The fighting began instantly in the trees.
Darcy lost his balance at the shock and fell to the ground. He scrambled to his feet and tried to run.
I puffed in front of him and he arched back. He eyes me up and down. “Samantha?”
I grab his throat. “You dare enter my kingdom.” I growl.
I pick him up and throw him across the forest. He hits a tree and thuds to the ground.
He rolls to his knees when I puff in front of him again.
“You dare threaten me?” My voice borders on demonic.
I throw him again and he rolls across the dirt.
“Sam…you don’t mean it…” He pants as he gets up to his knees.
“You pathetic worm. You insignificant wolf. You’re no match for me. I’ll enjoy taken your life.” I growl as my bare feet take slow steps to him. My dress dragging leaves and dirt behind me.
I reach down and pick him up by his neck. My nails digging into his throat.
His eyes were slits as he hung from my arm. “Sam…I…love…you.” He stammers as he tries to breathe. His face turns red.
I glare into his eyes. “I don’t love you.” I clench.
“You’re…lying…” He chokes.
With a growl, I throw him sideways and he lands on the ground hard.
He’s rolling, holding his sides and coughing.
“I will never love a disgusting, egotistical piece of garbage like you.”
“You don’t believe that, Sam.” He groans as he rolls to his knees.
I walk slowly to him. “Weak! No power! No strength!”
I drop my hands to the side and call my magic.
“Sam…” He says. He rolls his head to me. His hair trembling in his face. His back heaves with every breath.
I place my dirty foot on his aide and push him to his back.
His face fills with pain as he groans.
I lift my dress a bit as I straddle his legs.
He lifts his head to me. His eyes filled with fear.
I raised a lightning covered hand in front of my face. I turn my hand around as the white light dances in my eyes.
I don’t look at him. “Tell me, Darcy. If I really loved you, would I do this?”
I slam my hand into his chest. His body fills with my white lightning.
He arches back and screams into the night. A smirk crosses my face as I watch him feel my wrath.
His head is bent back. I watch as a tear falls from his eye down his temple.
“Sam…please…” He begs loud.
I watch his face as he fights my magic.
I push my magic more. My hair flies as the wind blows. He screams even louder as pain fills him.
In the pit of my stomach, the itch rises and starts to grow.
“I don’t love you, Darcy! I will never love you!” I growl loud. My eyes flare as I hit him harder.
He cries out and more tears leave his eyes.
The itch grows again.
I break contact and watch him suffer at my feet.
He holds his chest and his breathes are coming out as whines. He’s coughing and writhing between my ankles.
“Please…” He softly cries.
I raise my hand. My magic coats my hand in a solid white ball. “Now you die, Alpha Bourne.”
I raise my hand and I’m hit in the back.
I jut forward and my eyes go wide.
The smell of burning flesh fills the air.
I can’t breath. My voice lets out little squeaks as I look down to my stomach.
Three blood coated trident forks are sticking out of it. The pain of the silver ravages my body.
My hands shake in front of them.
“Darcy. You ok?” I look up and a young man falls to Darcy’s side.
“Quinn?” Darcy groans.
“Yeah.” He looks between me and Darcy with panicked eyes.
Darcy looks up at me. “SAM!” He pulls himself out from my legs.
He keeps his distance.
I reach back and pull out the trident with a growl. I toss it aside. My eyes fill with anger.
“Uh…we should run.” Quinn says bouncing.
Darcy looks at me. He turns with Quinn and runs towards the battle.
I’m heaving my anger.
I reach up and the sky boils with black clouds. The ravens fill the air. Their caws are deafening.
Lightning and thunder boom above the forest.
My hair flies. My hands are out to my sides. My chest heaves and my teeth are clenched.
I walk to the battle and throw fighters left and right.
They fly through the air, hitting trunks hard.
A tear falls down my cheek as I pick up men with my magic and smash them into other men.
I rip up trees and crush the fighters under their trunks.
I reach out both hands and raised them up.
A rumbling sound came from behind the battle.
From the back, fighters start to yell and run toward me.
I watch as the tops of the trees sway violently. Their leaves burst with white capped water.
The giant wave from the lagoon crashes into the forest. It’s water ripping through the forest. Fighters are washed away. Some Ravens smoked out before it hit, others were caught off guard.
I put out my other hand to deflect the wave around me as it washed inland.
I drop my arms and my head. I’m panting. The forest is quiet.
The water recedes and is absorbed by the forest.
“Sam!” I raise my head and Darcy rushes toward to me soaking wet. He stops and hugs a trunk. His face filled with panic and struggle.
I raise my head slowly. My lips curl into a snarl.
He stumbles to me. “Please, baby…please…just stop.” He holds his hands out.
I stare into his eyes.
“Stop…” He whispers.
He stares at me. My breath stutters. Flashes of him cross my mind and the itch increases.
“There you are.”
Both he and I look and Eternity is right behind him.
He grabs Darcy around the neck. “You’re a tough warrior to find, Darcy.” He says at his ear.
My eyes widen and time slows as I watch Eternity grin.
He moves his arm quick to the side.
My breath is lost. My mouth falls open and tears fall.
Darcy goes limp and falls to the ground.
Eternity smiles at me after snapping Darcy’s neck.
My body turns into an inferno. My mind explodes in anger.
“NOOO!!” I scream.
The wind turns to a hurricane.
Debris and carnage fly through the air. Thunder booms loud over head. The air is electrified to barely tolerable levels.
Eternity stands over Darcy’s body. Looking around. “Sam…somethings different about you.”
I call my magic with pain and grief on my face.
I run at him, throwing my magic at him relentlessly. The lightning hits him. He stumbles back, blocking my charges.
He calls his lighting and hits me. I fly backwards.
I lift myself up and raise my hand to the sky.
The sky turns black and caws fill the air.
I throw my hand in front of me. I’m crying and my face is red with anger.
My ravens fill the area and surround Eternity. Attacking him in a thick cloud of feathers and evil.
He disappears and reappears in front of me. “Birds…really?” He punches me and I go skidding into the dirt.
I sit up, wiping blood from my lips.
Growls come out of the trees left standing.
Zanders silver wolf, RyCal and Titus' silver blue wolf surround Eternity.
Eternity smiles. “Titus! How’s my nephew? You look good. The sea air does wonders, doesn’t it?”
The wolves lunge at him. Sinking their jaws into various places.
Eternity throws them off and they attack again.
He throws them off again. "It's been fun boys." He links out.
“DARCY!” I scramble to my feet and run to him.
I roll him to his back. He flops to the side.
I hitch my breath. “No…”
I lean down and kiss his lips. I lift my head and nothing.
I do it again. “Please…” I cry on his lips.
Nothing. I suck in a breath. “Darcy!” I kiss him over and over and sob hard.
“I love you.” I whisper with my head on his.
I throw myself on his chest and cry into it.
“We can bring him back. But we have to leave now.”
I turn and all the Alphas are standing behind me.
Zander steps forward. “The question is…Are you coming?”
I wipe my cheeks and look at Darcy’s body. I place a hand gently on his chest and bite my top lip.
I look at Zander who’s now joined by Titus. I nod slowly.
Titus nods and two of his warriors grab my arms and pick me up. They place a trident at my neck.
Bear walks to Darcy and picks him up. He throws him over his shoulder and my chin quivers.
“I’m sorry.” I whisper as I watch Bear carry Darcy to the lagoon.
