What he wouldn't give for just one single moment with his mate. If Fate kept her away and kept her safe, he knew that if he were given just one moment he could face a life without her. Please, he begged. One moment to last a lifetime. Ryuu followed behind them, an ever-present shadow to his charge. Warrick sighed.
It's been a long-standing custom for any citizen with a problem to meet with us there, I never really second-guessed it. I mean we're good, but we're not that good.
He and Warrick exchanged pained expressions. They were familiar with this particular resident. He was an adorable menace, molded by his father to be a thorn in their sides.
None of the warriors would ever hurt the little guy, but that didn't mean he wasn't a nuisance. When you're trained to take down ferals, a young vampire half your size wasn't much of a threat. Micah looked between the young man and Warrick, he doubted that even standing on tiptoe he reached Warrick's sternum.
Go away. Meryn tilted her head. Warrick is the Founding Family head here now. So like the ban is totally a moot point. Moot, not mute. It means not valid anymore, not that the sound was cut," she explained. The young man's eyes filled with confusion. DeLaFontaine's biological son. I mean you don't look damaged. Pip looked at her surprised. That he should have drowned me at birth," Pip admitted shamefully.
Pip's eyes widened and he looked around frantically. They will take you away to face my father. And if anyone tried to take me away my squire would gut them. You are nice and explained things to me. Warrick quickly got down on one knee and gently took Pip's fists into his own large hands.
Warrick nodded his head slightly to acknowledge that he heard him. There were no soft words or promises of tomorrow. It wasn't needed. She needed him in the most primal way imaginable. He wasn't making love to her, he was branding her. Claiming her as his own from the inside out. She tilted her hips until he was hitting her g-spot with every thrust. She was so close, the sound of his flesh pounding against hers echoed all around them.
She reached down and rubbed her fingers on either side of her clit. She twisted her fingers and came harder than she ever had in her life. Her arms gave out, she would have pitched forward onto the floor, but he caught her and gently lowered her. He pulled from her body and slumped to the floor next to her. No other woman has ever been loved the way you love me. Their fingers intertwined. She looked him in the eye. But by the time we head there in truth, we will have accomplished all we set out to do in life.
Our great-great-great-grandchildren will see us off and we'll go hand in hand. Everyone seemed to be talking at once. The children were virus free and the sleeping vampires were getting better by the hour. But something was off.
Vivi checked in on Micah and Serenity and reported that they were both awake and doing just fine. Though it wasn't said out loud, everyone seemed to understand why they weren't at dinner. Meryn smirked, she'd be lucky to see those two before she left the city. She leaned back in her chair as something continued to eat away at her.
She just couldn't remember what it was or why it was important. Stupid baby brain. Around her the table quieted. Meryn stared at Rheia. What on earth had she said? Something about coming so far. Meryn gasped as she remembered why it bothered her. They had come so far. Exactly down the path laid out for them, but by who? Meryn turned to Magnus. She scowled up at him. If she wants to meet with him, I want her surrounded by unit warriors at all times.
Magnus stood. Beth laughed. Quicker than she thought it would take, the door opened, and Adriel pulled DeLaFontaine into the room. When he saw Meryn, he snarled.
She burst out laughing. I needed a good laugh. DeLaFontaine stared up at her. Something about you bothers me. Meryn stared into DeLaFontaine's eyes. She felt two hands come to rest on her back. She knew without turning it was Ryuu and Kendrick. Meryn's gut instinct was proven correct when DeLaFontaine paled at her words.
He sighed. But technically he is a warrior brother and pretty much eschews all Storm Keep stands for. I'll feel him out, but make no promises. He propped himself on his hand. He's kinda sadistic and sarcastic as hell, but because he doesn't coddle you, he helps you to become stronger, to learn more and to push yourself.
What did he eat growing up? Zach hung out with the fae warriors learning how to build muscle and how to fight. I got into scrapes with the other witch kids as we tried spells out on each other. Or maybe passed your gran in the market? You would have hated me. Radclyffe's family are very upper class. On the day he was born his mother went into labor while at the market, unfortunately for her, the closest assistance was the Water Temple in the Lower City. Laelia's parents were from the Lower City so of course when her mother went into labor she was brought to the Water Temple as well.
As the temple clock chimed midnight on All Hallows Eve, both babes drew breath and wailed," she giggled. Radclyffe saw Laelia while he was at the market with his mother and followed Laelia home. Over the years Radclyffe was hauled back to his parents house by his ears nearly everyday.
Laelia and I joke that his left ear is bigger than his right since his father is right-handed. My family left Storm Keep right after Zach and I came of age. They claimed one another not long after I left and moved to the Lower City to begin their work at the Water Temple.
When they moved to the Lower City his family disowned him. She smiled. Growing up I saw his immense power and it terrified me, but I knew if there was one person in all the world who could help me get stronger it was him. I wasn't fearless, I was stubborn," she swallowed hard. She nodded. He was studying for his warrior exams and used to share his note taking techniques," she shuddered. The last update received from Kendrick while she was in Storm Keep was that he was working to help Keelan.
When she offered to travel to Lycaonia to help he advised her it wasn't a medical issue and everything was being done to restore Keelan. Not because they don't trust us, but because whatever happened is so important that the fewer who know the details, the safer Keelan will be. All the warriors respect that decision and haven't pressed for more details.
He smiled. Before she could think of another topic to keep her wide awake his even breathing lulled her to sleep. We got stuck above the platform and my gran's next-door neighbor Mr. Compton had to get us down. Her cup of coffee was balanced precariously on the arm of the platform bed, but she was nowhere to be seen. Other author's books: Fated Surrender. I wish they would share with the class before running out like a manic. Let's leave the geniuses to work. Laelia nodded to Marjoram. We couldn't help in a lab anyway.
Ellie and her helpers withdrew after Meryn leaving Serenity, Micah, Kendrick and Law in the meeting room. Serenity shook her head. How does she see things so simply? Kendrick just grunted, and she beamed at him. The results should be in today," Law said standing. I'm more curious to discover what had Rheia running out of here like that. Later she would ask why he was running tests to figure out which element was in the virus, because it had nothing to do with curing it, that could be accomplished regardless.
She was still wondering what the grouchy witch was up to when Micah wrapped his arm around her waist. Micah, zero. Micah heaved a great sigh. He opened his eyes and winked. Feeling sorry for the bear-shifter, Serenity caught Vivi's attention. Vivi shook her head. Call me if you need me again," he said quickly and before she could blink he was shutting the door behind him.
Over the walkie-talkie Ryuu's voice came through. Etain has been called to the hospital. Vivi was mid-sentence talking with Rheia when she stopped. Ellie has been asking the fae warriors to rotate shifts at the hospital. They can easily lift the children, as well as the adults for sheet changes. It makes keeping the patients comfortable so much easier," Rheia explained. Vivi blinked. I'm really the worst person when it comes to nursing. Give me a microscope and slides any day. Rheia blushed.
Normally I would say it's because they are paranormals and paranormals don't get sick right? We have shifters and vampires ill up on Level Six, but not the warriors. How are they different?
