Chapter 37
Cassy pov
It had been an eventful day. The day I had my wedding and coronation. And not to mention, I got to expose Miles. I wouldn’t lie, it felt good. At first, I tried to ignore him, but he had to open his mouth and say something stupid.
He must have felt so embarrassed. I couldn’t care less. He deserved it.
“Cassy?” Nolan called me. “Oh…um I mean your highness…” he stuttered, scratching the back of his head.
Rolling my eyes, I waved my hand at him.
“Oh shut up Nolan,” I grumbled.
“What? You’re the Queen.” He chuckled nervously.
“And you are my brother,” I stated and narrowed my eyes at him.
“Or maybe you no longer believe that I am your sister,” I said, pouting a little.
“No! No no.” He went stiff as he denied my accusation. “Never. You…you will always be my little munchkin.” He quickly stated.
“I missed you so much….” His eyes quickly welled with his tears.
“Nolan….” I paused my lips. “I was just kidding. And you have become over the past year. You are not that jokester I knew back then.”
My statement made him go speechless. He froze in his spot before he started to laugh anxiously.
“I… I guess…..” he stammered.
“He had changed ever since that night. He is always serious. At times I’ve seen him shed a tear or two when he is alone. Yet he had been putting up a brave face for all of us. His parents and the pack.” Castor told me, smiling at Nolan, who was now gaping at Castor in shock.
“You…..”
“Yeah, I knew, I just didn’t point out the obvious. I knew you were hurt deep inside.” He shrugged.
I smiled. At least Castor had been a great friend.
“Thank God for Castor!” Izzy muttered in my mind, and I couldn’t agree more.
“He was the reason his parents didn’t succumb to depression,” Castor explained.
Frowning I gulped.
“I must see them soon,” my forehead creased as worry engulfed me.
“Yes. You must.” Nolan agreed.
My father cleared his throat, gaining our attention.
“Your mom and I will leave. You can use the study or the meeting room if you want to discuss anything. Or maybe you want to have some fun together. This is a night worth rejoicing about. Use the game room in the palace. I don’t know what you all like to do for fun ….I don’t know…. Just enjoy,” he said, smiling at us and walked away. Mom followed him and we were left alone.
“So? Want to come?” I asked, grinning at them. Ava started to nod hysterically and so did Daphne, Maya and Zoe. Castor and his mate too looked extremely excited to come with us. But Nolan looked uncertain.
“Uh….but I am feeling real…” he sighed. “I am overwhelmed,” he admitted. “So much has happened today.”
“You need to have fun dude,” Castor said, poking his tummy.
“Ava, your mate has forgotten how to have fun with us. You have to teach him that in addition to having fun with you in private.” Castor smirked mischievously.
“What the hell!” Nolan gasped, widening his eyes at Castor, who was now hiding behind his mate.
“Whyyyy….you!” Nolan g*****d, face-palming himself.
I giggled. Ava’s face was now bright red. Maya, Zoe and Daphne were trying their best not to laugh out loud and I heard Elliot chuckle in amusement.
“Castor. You haven’t introduced your mate to me.” I said, changing the topic.
“Oh. This is Amara, my mate. Amara, meet Cassy. Our Cassy.” He said and paused. “Now she is our Queen.”
I smiled at the petite girl who was smiling shyly at me. She looked cute and joyous.
“Hello. We are friends. Don’t call me Queen when we are alone.” I told them, winking in Amara’s direction.
We ended up spending a fun night together. The boys bonded over a game of billiards in the game room while the girls insisted that they give me a makeover in our room.
They hunted in my closet for something suitable and finally came out with the skimpiest lingerie they found.
I felt as though my eyes might pop out of my sockets.
“What the hell! No way! I am not wearing that!!!!” I protested.
“Oh yes, you are. Not for us silly. For him.” Maya grinned mischievously, wiggling her eyebrows at me.
I felt my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.
“Ooh. I’m sure you would look hot in that”, Izzy smirked.
“Not you too, Izzy,” I g*****d.
“Oh yes! I need you to mate and mark with him tonight. I want my bond with Rex.” She stated.
Looks like I would have to do whatever they tell me to.
They made me sit on the bed as they undid my hair and removed the makeup. They were about to force me to remove my wedding gown and wear the lingerie they had fished out of my closet. I couldn’t believe that they found it. I was so embarrassed at the thought of wearing it when mom bought it for me, that I had kept it well hidden in one of the drawers.
“You are not waiting for him in that heavy gown!” Zoe exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air.
“Yes, surprise him!” Amara chimed in, surprising me. She had been so shy at first. However, it looks like she was warming up to us.
“Oh yes!” Ava cheered, high fiving with Amara.
“Fine!” I g*****d. “But I am not changing in front of you,” I grumbled as I grabbed the lacy material and stomped over to the bathroom.
“Whatever. We are interested in seeing your boobs, anyway,” Daphne muttered, and all the girls giggled together.
“Yeah, save that for Sir Elliot,” Zoe agreed.
“What the hell!” I chuckled as I entered the bathroom to change.
I changed and checked my reflection out in the bathroom mirror and g*****d. This is harder than I thought! Even the thought of stripping in front of him was making me embarrassed.
However, I sighed and wore a cardigan that hung in the bathroom to cover myself up before going out.
“Well? Is it okay?” Zoe asked.
I rolled my eyes at her before grinning.
“I think so.”
Just then a set of knocks on the door interrupted us.
Ava opened the door to reveal the three men who had returned from the game room.
“Let’s go, babe,” Castor spoke. “It is a four-hour ride. We won’t get there before midnight, he said.
“Oh yeah,” Amara replied and looked at Ava.
“See you soon. I am looking forward to working with you.” She winked and left after offering a friendly smile at each of us.
“And we shouldn’t delay the newlywed couple’s first night together,” Nolan smirked. Castor chuckled at his remark.
My eyes widened and my mouth opened wide.
Elliot grinned from ear to ear as he entered while the girls moved out.
“Yup. And good luck to you too. You are to meet Ava’s parents,” he responded, laughing, and closed the door.
“They are fun.” He murmured, unbuttoning his shirt.
I chose to ignore my desire to gawk at what he was about to reveal and turned around.
“Yeah. I’m glad Nolan is slowly coming back,” I told him honestly.
There was a pause.
“He will he babe,” he whispered in a reply from behind. I wasn’t expecting him to wrap his arms around me from behind.
I bit my lips and frowned. I wanted to stay calm. But it wasn’t possible with him so close to me.
“Relax Carina,” Izzy purred. She was enjoying it.
My breathing slowly laboured. I felt his hands move up and lower the outer garment to reveal my shoulder blade.
I closed my eyes when his warm lips touched my exposed skin. I shivered in his arms when he started to pepper k****s all over my neck and shoulder. My heart started to race and my breathing hitched.
I turned my head to look at him. Our gazes met before he devoured my lips with his. Slowly, yet surely, I was intoxicated with the movements of our hands and lips.
My previous embarrassment was completely forgotten. I let him remove my cardigan. His eyes darkened with l**t when he saw what I was wearing underneath.
“Mine!” he whispered. I gulped.
“I can smell your arousal babe.” He added in a hushed whisper.
Huh? I blinked. It was only then I realised that he was right. My eyes darted towards his bare chest and his abdomen and I noticed the bulge in his pants. I smirked. Well, it looks like I’m not the only one.
Suddenly feeling bold, I tugged at his pants. While he removed whatever clothing was remaining on me.
No more words were exchanged. Our hands and mouths did the talking. Our clothes were strewn all over the floor as we became one. There was nothing except love and respect between us when he mated and marked.
It hurt at first when he thrust inside and when he sunk his canines into my marking spot.
However, soon it was replaced with complete bliss.
“You are mine now.” He whispered as we lay covering our nude bodies with the sheets. I giggled.
“Does it hurt?” He asked.
“A little,” I admitted. Sighing, he kissed my forehead. “But I like it,” I added.
He chuckled and I snuggled close to him. He was right. I was his now. His mark made me feel his emotions to some extent. A pure bond was being formed between us. And that bond shall be completed when I mark him.
“I should mark you, love.”
I realised that he wouldn’t hear my statement when I heard his snores. Smiling, I also closed my eyes. I was dead tired already and right now, sleep is what I must do.
The next morning, I woke up to him peppering k****s on my face.
“Morning.” I greeted him, yawning and stretching myself.
“I want more.” He grumbled.
What? I frowned at him. His lecherous gaze told me one thing. I shoved him away, giggling.
“Not before we brush our teeth,” I demanded, and walked towards the bathroom to freshen up.
He followed me shortly after.
“I like this a*s,” he murmured, slapping my rear.
“Naughty,” I responded and was about to leave, but he pinned me to the wall. He was smirking and I knew that look meant that I was not leaving anytime soon.
“You may be the Queen outside, but once that door closes behind us, I rule.” His husky whisper made me shiver.
His smile widened when his eyes landed on the place where he had marked me last night. His grey eyes darkened with l**t.
“Mine,” he whispered, and we ended up getting intimate in the bathroom. The sound of our m***s and g****s filled the whole place. My eyes zeroed on his neck as he rammed into me against the wall.
It is my turn. I lowered my head and sunk my canines into his neck. It was his turn to grunt and g***n.
“Cass.” He gasped. I made sure that I had sunken my canines deep enough for our bonds to be solidified.
Izzy purred the whole time. She must be ecstatic that now we were spiritually bonded.
Panting and gasping for breath, he slowly put me down.
“That was…..” he gasped.
I chuckled through my deep breaths.
“What? You didn’t expect me to keep up with you?”
Our gazes met once again.
“Uh…we should go. I don’t want mom and dad to remind us that we have duties instead of having s*x all the time.”
My statement made him laugh. But he didn’t object.
“Izzy?” I called as I dressed.
“Yeah?” She answered.
“Ready to be Queen?” I asked.
“Oh hell yes!”
I grinned. We hurried to go out and started my first day as Queen.
