“Please Dom.” Was all she said as she looked back over her shoulder at us. Who am I to deny my mate what she was begging for?
I hesitated knowing my wolf wouldn’t be gentle, nor would he go slow. She shook her ass at us that one last time and he surged forward mounting her quickly. Quickly we thrusted forward burying ourselves to the hilt. Aurora moaned at her sudden fullness and drew in a deep breath as she wiggled again. Her movement spurred my wolf to bite her shoulder hard to hold her in place as he decided to fuck her as hard as he could. Our dew claws dug into the tender skin near her hips so we wouldn’t lose our grip of her as we pounded her relentlessly. That sloppy wet sound of our cock sliding in and out of her was music to our ears. Her voice changed as her orgasm gripped her. Her muscles gripped us tightly rhythmically pulsating while milking our cock.
We wouldn’t last much longer; our balls drew up tight as our mating knot formed just before we filled her with our seed. Soon after we orgasmed the wolf released his hold on our body and allowed me to shift back to being just a man. The mating knot was still in place as I kissed at the bite my wolf had given her.
Aurora turned her head to look over her shoulder at me and just smiled. “Totally worth it.” She started giggling to herself and then I felt it. I felt another presence besides myself. It was a happy yet angry presence all at the same time. I pulled free of Aurora once the knot released.
“What am I feeling? Better yet who am I feeling?” I pulled her into my lap waiting for her answer. I knew I felt her, but was that also Sebastian I was feeling. She snuggled into my lap and without warning she bit my shoulder near my neck. Everything I was feeling became clearer. I was feeling Sebastian and well he was none too pleased my wolf took part in the claiming.
“He’ll get over it.” Aurora said it rather matter of factly after she cleaned my mating mark that she had just made. “Let’s go. I’ll have to shift and carry you back down.”
Slowly she stood and stretched by the entrance. I watched my seed drip freely from her pussy before she shifted back into her wolf. She gave me a short bark as if to say get over here. I climbed onto her back and locked my arms around her neck and used my thighs to hold onto her rib cage. This most certainly was a strange turn of events. I’m holding onto my mate for dear life as she took a running leap off the ledge towards the wall that seemed miles away. Sadly, I must admit I think I saw part of my life flash before my eyes as we sailed through the air. The landing left a lot to be desired it was jarring and sudden. Through the bond I can feel her joy at my dismay, and I can feel Sebastian’s state of panic over what she had just done. Aurora was definitely enjoying this way too much because about halfway down she launched us backwards. All I could think was this is it, I’m going to die because my mate is insane.
A large taloned hand shot up out of nowhere and snatched us out of the air. Her father had apparently decided to join in on her fun and my panic. Thank the gods I had such great control over my bowels otherwise there’d be a mess I’d have to clean up later. Nico placed us on the ground where I promptly slid off her back and moved away slowly. I thought I was in the clear until Sebastian’s fist met my jaw, stunning me for a moment.
“What the fuck! You took advantage of her emotional state you're a fucking heartless bastard.” Just as he was getting ready to strike again a large white maw came between us and started growling at Sebastian. She made him back away and rethink his course of action.
Aurora’s shift came quickly as she moved to get in Sebastian’s face. “I love you Bash, and I appreciate what you’re trying to do. But if you ever hit another mate for doing what I wanted, you and I will be brawling. I touched his wolf’s sheath. I waved my ass and soaked pussy in his face. I taunted them till they gave me what I wanted! I needed to feel something other than death and sadness. I needed to feel like something other than the monster I become when I’m forced to kill.” She began to pace between the two of us. Her hands kept coming up to run through her hair almost violently.
I can see what he meant when he said she doesn’t deal with emotions well. I chose at this point to back away. This part of the fight was between them not me. My gaze found my two brothers and Sinclair huddled over by the exit.
I moved slowly over towards the group. “Hey guys what’s going on?” They all appear to be happy to see me, so that’s a good start. “I’m going to accept the title of pack master until Aurora calls for us.” Alex was his normal get to the point self. His eyes fell to his nails before he spoke again. “It will be nice to get the pack back to the way it was before father lost his marbles.” I nod slowly and look around. The pack is moving about slowly, interacting like I haven’t seen them do in the last fifty years.
“That’s great to hear Alex I’m sure you’ll bring about much needed changes here that have been long overdue. You’re one of the most compassionate and understanding people I know. You’ll make a great leader.” I embrace Alex then look at Jayce and Sinclair. Sinclair seems to be in disbelief over what’s happening, and Jayce is getting frustrated. “How are you two doing?” I figured I’d ask incase my twin needed backup. Sinclair was always a very needy bitch when it came to their relationship. Jayce’s wolf was showing, and Sinclair looked like he was on the verge of tears.
“What could she possibly do that I can’t do Jayce! I’ve been with you almost fifty years!” Sinclair was in a huff and he was fully in touch with his inner bitch.
Jayce shook his head and drew in a slow measured breath. “For one she can give me pups. Two she’s not a needy bitch like you are. Three she’s my fucking mate! That won’t change no matter how much you beg!”
Jayce’s screaming got Aurora’s attention and she sprinted over to stand behind Jayce. She was still human for now but who knows how long that would last. Her face came alongside his and she spoke softly next to his ear. “Are you alright sweetheart?” Her arms wrapped around his shoulders as she rested her head on his shoulder.
“I’m fine your Royal Hotness just trying to get Sinclair to understand that it’s over and that I choose you.” He made probably his smartest move of the night leaning his head against hers and placing his hands on her arms. Not only did his words please her, he immobilized her in case she wished to attack. Because after all if she moved wrong, she’d end up hurting him too and she wouldn’t ever do that.
Sinclair started to move towards them and he appeared angry. Aurora wasn’t having any of it. Her eyes burned molten mercury and scales rippled over her forearms as she growled at Sinclair. “Choose wisely male. Jayce has chosen, his word is final. He is my mate which places him on my level. To move against me or him is to move against the throne.” She released Jayce and moved him behind her. Sinclair slowly lowered his head looking down.
Aurora wasn’t budging at all and she had made her stand. Once Sinclair moved off, Aurora turned and kissed Jayce. “I’m sorry you had to go through that.” Her eyes returned to human grey as she moved to embrace Jayce. They hugged for a very long time before they broke apart.
Aurora stepped away and moved close to Alex. “I heard you accepted the position.” She held her hand out to him, her royal brand facing Alex.
“I do my Queen.” He bowed his head to her already proclaiming her Queen. “I will be fair and just and treat everyone better than father had treated me.” He grasped her hand tightly and shook it. They smiled at each other.
“Thank you, Alexander please prep your people for war. Free the prisoners that were unjustly imprisoned. If any want to fight alongside us they are welcome. The prisoners that are guilty execute them. There is no sense in being imprisoned for life.” Alex was nodding along and taking notes on his phone. He was the organizer of the son’s, so he was perfect for this role. “Oh, and Alex I need the Dire’s with the toxic bite to be trained for assault.” That got his attention.
“For assault my Queen. Like assassins?” Alex was quite curious about where her thought process was going. Dom was nodding along sensing where Aurora wanted
the team to be.
“Yes Alex, we send them in almost like scouts to weaken the forces already in place.” Aurora started drawing in the sand. Nico moved up alongside her and started adding to the drawing. She was drawing a place that she’s never been. Somehow, she knew the layout of the castle grounds.
Nico took over drawing at this point. “If the Strigoi didn’t completely destroy the castle, they will hole up in the bottom chambers in the center during the day.” He pointed to the structure in question. “A daytime assault will be the best bet. If we can gather other ice dragon’s we can freeze them in their tracks and behead them.“
It’s kind of scary to think that Aurora was raised without her father, but their thought processes are perfectly in line. She’s watching her father’s drawing and pointing, and you can see the gears turning. “Father, what if we use the tunnels to the south and send the dire’s in through there?” She has a puzzled look on her face, mostly because she’s not sure how she knows these things.
Nico started to laugh which drew Sebastian to the group. “I’m so glad to see that you remember all that I’ve shown you in your dreams over the years. I wasn’t sure what you learned in your sleep” He hugged Aurora tightly as he gazed upon us. “Come all is settled here let’s head back to your guardians Aurora.”
My brother and I returned to our suite to pack. It was time to go and plan our next moves as a pack. Jayce still seemed off, but his spirits were much higher than they were earlier. I think Aurora verbally claiming him made the difference in his mood. I guess we shall see. After all we are about to meet the two men that had raised her for the last two hundred plus years.
After all these years, I finally have my little girl. She is everything I have dreamt of and more. Though I must admit, she took after me so much. She has my white hair and silvery eyes. Her face and build is all her mother. Her wolf has some distinct dragon qualities to it. For example, her talons and the white scales. Her Lycan’s muzzle is far longer and broader than your run of the mill Lycan. It killed me to have to sit back and feel her battle without me. Even though I knew she would defeat the challengers without an issue. The draw on my power had been intense, she’s far stronger than I could have ever imagined possible. When I walked out and saw her wolf standing there without fear it made me beam with pride. She trusted me completely even though she didn’t know me per say. We stood against that Alpha together and it warmed my heart that she was there with me.
Now we move slowly through the tunnels to come out somewhere near where Aurora’s truck and guardians are waiting for us. Aurora is ahead of me between Sebastian and Dominik with Dom in the lead. The other twin Jayce is still with the brother we left in charge of making sure the transfer of power went smoothly. I think I’m more anxious about being free after all this time. I haven’t seen the skies in over two hundred years.
We approach the sealed passageway and Aurora looked back at me sensing my unease. She broke loose of her mates and came to my left side to wrap her arms around my waist. “I’ve got you Daddy... No worries I’ll protect you. “Her smile was infectious and warmed my soul. I’m Daddy to this grown woman. It brought tears to my eyes hearing her call me that.
“Thank you Little one. I love you baby girl. I always have and always will.” I kissed the top of her head and nodded to Dom to open the passageway. I squinted my eyes as the first rays of light flickered through the opening. It feels like forever since I’ve seen the sun or smelled fresh air. I moved slowly with Aurora looking outside amazed with how little this area had changed since my imprisonment.
Dimitri and Andre come rushing over seeing Sebastian exit first. They immediately start asking about Aurora. She steps out next while I remain in the shadows for a few moments just taking it all in. She is smiling and laughing as Dimitri hugs her and spins her around in a circle. The next moment he’s shaking a finger at her as she tells him about the new body count. His head whips to the opening then back to her quickly as he processes what she’s told him. I still live. Andre and Dimitri come running over to the passageway and drop to their knees before me.
“Milord.” They say in unison still looking at the ground waiting for me to speak.
“Rise my friends. You’ve done a glorious job with raising Aurora. I am forever in your debt.” They both look up to me astonished. It’s now that they finally notice I’m missing my left arm. Andre looks like he’s ready to cry and Dimitri really isn’t sure what expression is appropriate at the moment. “I lost my arm the night of the invasion. The now dead alpha was the one that took my arm. With the help of my daughter I got to take his life tonight. It’s been a very good day.” I smiled at them and they looked between me and Aurora several times. I guess my daughter is more like me than I realized.
Aurora moved to my side and snuggled in close. She was choosing me over her three mates, it truly soothed my soul. In all the years I dreamt of my child I never pictured the strong female before me. When I would dream walk to teach her in her sleep her animal never revealed their gender or even their fur color. It was very protective of her even in her slumber. Perhaps her wolf was more dragon than I first suspected.
Dimitri is the first to approach and kneel before me. His bear surfaces as he looks up to my daughter and I. “Milord, If I would have known you were captured, we would have come for you sooner.” His head lowered and he looked to the ground, I guess in a way he blames himself for not knowing.
“Dimitri do not blame yourself. You carried precious cargo; my daughter last of her name. You performed a great service to me and our people. I am forever in your debt.” I gently placed my hand on his shoulder. “Rise ole friend” Aurora moved off to the side and into Sebastian’s waiting arms. Dimitri slowly stood and I could see clearly now that he was starting to age.
Whatever magic had extended his life was fading slowly. I moved forward and hugged Dimitri bringing the big old bear in close. I missed having my trusted guardian at my side. So few from the past still lived and yet one that should not be here was still alive. My eyes find Andre he is another that has outlived his species lifespan. “Is there anything I can do for you and Dimitri name it, and it shall be yours.”
Dimitri backed up and hugged onto Andre. His eyes darted to where Aurora was standing with her three mates. Slowly his eyes returned to me and I can see a sadness deep within their depths. “I fear we will not be able to serve in the final battle as we are now.” Andre began to sniffle and hide his face against Dimitri’s chest, he feared death. Dimitri looked down at his faithful companion and sighed. Perhaps there was something this old dragon could do.
“We can try something, it’s old magic and might not even work for long.” I looked down staring at my hand as I shifted it looking at my snow-white scales and long black talons. Even after all these years it was odd to only have one arm. My dragon’s eyes locked onto Dimitri before I looked up and over to Aurora. “Daughter, I need your assistance.” Aurora and her mates looked plenty puzzled by my request before they came running over without question.
“Yes Father?” She canted her head to the right looking up at me. Her wolf surged to the surface sensing my dragon’s urgency. Her eyes fell to my shifted hand and arm then back up to my eyes.
Our animals were in a deep conversation, that even I wasn’t privy to. Aurora’s hands shifted quickly and then plucked two scales off my wrist. She turned and quickly plunged her talon into Dimitri’s chest and sunk the bleeding side of my scale into his skin. She repeated the process even faster with Andre knowing how sensitive the bird was. Once her task was complete her hands began to glow with frost. Her eyes locked on the scales and she pressed both frozen palms over the scale transplants cementing them to their new hosts. She drew in a deep panting breath then collapsed from the exertion.
Dominik was the one to catch her before she hit the floor. He cradled his greatest treasure against his chest, rocking her gently.
“I’m not sure how much more time my scales and Aurora’s frost will g
rant you. But for now, it will slow the process that has already begun.” I spoke truly, I honestly wasn’t sure how long it would give them. For Aurora’s sake something was better than nothing, she would need their guidance and wisdom when it came to training the troops. They both looked down at their chests then over to Aurora who was still sleeping. “We need to get moving. Dominik do you or your brother have transportation, as we are not all going to fit in that.” I motioned to the black truck that wasn’t far from where we were standing.
“Yeah, we have a couple of vehicles we can take. Where are we headed?” Jayce was the one whom answered and now looked to Sebastian apparently, he was being recognized as Alpha while Aurora was incapacitated.
Sebastian moved forward and sniffed the crown of Aurora’s head then kissed it before turning to me. “We’ll head to my birth pack. My mother would be most pleased to see that you live my King.” He bowed slightly to me. Too alpha to fully submit, yet smart enough to show ample respect where it's due.
“Sounds like a solid plan. Let’s depart as soon as possible. It will be nice to have a bath and sleep in a real bed again.” I turned to Dimitri and smiled. “I’ll ride with you old friend, we have a lot of catching up to do.” Dimitri just nodded and started heading towards the big black monstrosity that they called Aurora’s baby. Baby? Odd thing to call a structure of metal, it doesn’t live or breathe. Nor does it resemble my daughter in stature or scent. Andre noticed my puzzlement and moved closer.
