“That’s how I spank a naughty girl,” he said hoarsely.
I moaned at the rush of desire I felt at his words, the dip in my belly filling with need each time his cock slapped against my ass, and swayed my hips with excitement. After the spanking, I wanted a good, long fuck. I arched my back and pushed my butt back, baring my plump pussy to him.
“You’re the fire in my blood,” he said, voice slurring with the storm of lust. “I can never get rid of it. So I’d better ride it.”
His hand let go of my waist and pinned my wrists above my head. His thumb and finger prodded open my plump folds. With a forceful thrust, he shoved his cock into my pussy from behind. One stroke and it slammed to the hilt.
Its hardness and heaviness filled me; its pressure made me want to come right away.
“Ares,” I whispered. “Fuck me like this is our last time.”
His hand reached around to fondle my breast before moving to flick my swollen clit.
“I’ll fuck you the way you want, the way I want,” he said hoarsely, huskily, “but it won’t be our last time. It’s only the beginning.”
I pushed backwards and started riding his rigid length. Fucking him was spectacular, majestic . . . delicious and addictive.
A guttural sound tore from his chest.
Clouds drifted by beneath our feet. The rainforest across from the cliff shivered in the wind as if it could feel our pleasure.
The side of my face pressed against the cold glass, contrasting with the heat radiating off my body.
Ares thrust into me, every stroke deeper and more powerful than the previous. My Dragonian prince’s strength was infinite. A lusty moan that wasn’t mine sighed beside me. Right in this spot, the Angel High Prince had fucked his mate, exactly how Ares was fucking me now.
Same place, same positions, different lovers. My present entwined with the Fey Empress’ past. Was it a merely coincidence?
Though Ares couldn’t see the magical imprint of their mating, he could sense my amplified sexual appetite. He gripped my hips and pumped faster and harder. Pleasure slithered up my spine.
“You’re made for me, Freyja,” he said in approval.
I wasn’t going to argue with him when the rhythm of his rapid thrusts mesmerized and enthralled me. The sound of flesh slapping flesh was maddeningly erotic.
“Do you know this lair you claimed,” I said between my moans, “once belonged to an Angel?”
“Yeah?” He didn’t slow down his thrust.
“It belonged to the High Prince Seth. He and his Fey came here to mate. They left their imprint all over.”
“You can see that?” he asked in amazement.
Perhaps I should slip in another truth? Like the fact that I was the First Witch?
He’d chosen me. Shouldn’t I try to be brutally honest with him, no matter the consequences?
The thought of the consequences stopped me cold.
There might never be a good time to break the news, my conscience chimed in, but I’d learned not to listen to it. I only listened to my survival instinct.
Ares adapted to the combinations of long thrusts with rapid shorter ones. Each thrust was powerful enough to push me to the brink of insanity. His other hand caressed and rubbed my sensitive peak in circles.
“They fucked right here,” I breathed out.
That aroused him more. “Did he fuck her hard as I’m fucking you?” he asked.
His cock penetrated through my inner walls, his thrusting relentless. My body became his instrument.
“It’s not a competition,” I moaned as pleasure ripped through me.
Ares thrust into my core with brutal strength.
“Yes, Ares!” I screamed.
“My cock will be the only cock for you all your lifetime,” he said. “And I’ll fuck only you in my lifetime.”
The witch was indeed out of the picture.
One hand pressing on the window, one hand gripping his thigh, I panted, “Ares, I’m coming!”
He stilled and pinned me to stop me from moving on his length to reach my climax.
I regretted giving him such a warning. I should have just quietly taken my release instead of announcing it like a victory. Lust burst in my veins, in urgent need of venting out, yet the damned Dragonian prince wouldn’t allow me.
I was going to erupt.
“Say your vow of fidelity,” he said, “and I’ll let you have the longest, hardest orgasm.”
As if I have a choice. I couldn’t touch any other males, except Merlin, without sending them to death anyway. “Fine,” I said, “I’ll have only your cock and no one else’s. Now get on with it. Fuck me with all you got.”
His next powerful thrust sent me slamming into the window as he pounded between my thighs with abandon. Pleasure exploded in me like spewing lava. This kind of sex wasn’t for the faint-hearted.
The glass rattled in the window pane.
I half closed my eyes, at the mercy of the mating instinct.
“The best fuck I’ve ever had,” Ares groaned. “I can fuck you however I want without inhibition. I want to fuck you forever. Never stop.” With that, his cock rammed into me again, sending me to a new realm of pleasure.
A blur of short, rapid thrusts—his thick crown rubbing and pushing at the edge of my entrance, until his whole length drove into my depth, pushing the waves in me higher. I cried mercy when the next high tide swept me under and shattering spasms rocked me to the molten core.
My release cascaded through me, and I roared victoriously.
Yet Ares wouldn’t give me a break. His cock thrust through my orgasm as if it was king of the realm. I forgot to argue who should dominate the new territory when another wave of orgasm pushed at my shore.
Then, I felt Ares’ transformation. He was still thrusting inside me wildly, yet his form grew large and almost beastly. I’d seen him shift when he had fought the Angels in the alley, but we weren’t battling now.
“My mate! My female! My future queen!” he roared, and I felt his lengthening fangs grazing the side of my neck. He bent his head down and sank his teeth into the spot above the curve of my shoulder and neck.
I cried at the sudden burst of pain. Then an indescribable sensation washed over the pain and in that moment I knew pleasure I had never known before. I screamed hoarsely as the heavenly and hellish pleasure opened the floodgate of my orgasms again.
One arm coiled around my waist to keep me with him, one hand ramming onto the window to support his weight and mine at the violent assault of our combined climax, Ares raised his head from my neck and roared in triumph.
His cock thrust in me like never-ceasing fire, and he emptied his warm seed in me.
“I claim you as my mate,” he declared.
“Wait!” Was that why he bit me? Was it some kind of claiming ritual?
“It’s beautifully done,” he said with great satisfaction.
“You can’t just claim me like that!” I cried.
“Why not?” he asked. “I’ve already claimed you with my cock. Now I’ve sealed it with my mark on you. Everyone will know you belong to me now, Freyja. You’re mine forever. There’s no escape, no running away, and no turning back for both of us.”
I shouldn’t have been so surprised. The Dragonian prince always took what he wanted. He might have never asked anyone for permission his whole life, so he didn’t know any other way. With me, he needed to learn the other way.
But my body was so divinely happy from the sequence of orgasms, the latter ones overlapping the previous ones with bigger waves. I couldn’t utter any objection for the moment.
Later, I’d give him a piece of my mind.
But then, I’d never felt such peace and contentment. I’d never felt so desired and cherished.
The mating ritual somehow fulfilled the requirements of our mating bond that demanded our absolute commitment to each other.
“Ares,” I whispered.
A mystic force swelled inside me, changing me. W
ith that, every barrier in me shattered and the walls toppled down.
“Yes, my sweet Freyja?” Ares answered lazily. His happiness rippled toward me like a sunbeam through our bond. His cock remained rock hard in me and he started to thrust again, tenderly and slowly. He was making love to me.
“The Oracle said I would recognize my mate,” he said, “when I joined with her in body, mind, and soul. It was never the witch but you who are my true mate, Freyja. The fucking Oracle lied to me.”
It was time to tell him.
Fuck the consequences.
“I, Freyja, am the First Witch,” I said in the voice of power.
His instinct had sensed that I was his mate when he’d first met me, but the Oracle’s promise had shrouded his mind, so he couldn’t wrap his head around the fact that I was his witch, right in front of him, while he’d searched so hard for her.
With my magic reaching him and streaming inside him, he was no longer blind. His mark on me cleared all obstacles and there was no doubt in his mind that I was indeed what I claimed to be—the First Witch and his fated mate.
He stared at our lighted mating bond as the mythical, dominating, and beautiful force streamed between us.
His body tensed against me like a snapped whip. His cock only grew harder.
I stilled, too, as the world froze before it exploded.
The window before us shattered with horrible, piercing sound.
With a furious roar, Ares pulled me back with him, faster than a flash across the night sky.
CHAPTER 15
The Legion
The mountains trembled in terror and the forest shuddered, not because of Ares’ roars.
Massive wings covered the sky and blotted out the sun.
The horde of the Dark Lord’s Angels had arrived.
They swarmed the place.
Outside the window, their black wings swung in the air, their cold, determined gazes on me and Ares.
They’d come to take me to my grandfather, so he could harvest my power, as he’d done to others who had powers he coveted. The magic in me would revive him, and he would break me. It didn’t matter that I was his blood. All that mattered to him was his uncontested power and throne in the universe.
I was his means to regain the glory he had lost.
Ares tugged me behind him. “Get dressed, quickly!” he ordered.
I shoved on my clothes hastily. Under the circumstances, there was no need to go nude.
The Angels outside the villa all wore full armor. Eye-patch had told them about my lethal touch, so their skin was all covered. From what I knew, their armors could shield their faces and wings as well, though an earthling’s eye couldn’t see through the device.
In a second, Ares had hauled on his armor that covered his torso, forearms, and thighs. He handed me the ray gun, but I doubt it would do much harm on the armored Angels. They’d prepared and were armed to the teeth.
The whole legion had come just to capture me. Atlas was indeed beyond desperation.
Ares and I shared a look as we surveyed the situation. There was no escape route out of the villa embedded in the cave. There was only one entrance—the cave mouth—and now the front window.
When the High Prince of Angels had picked this place, he’d never thought of building a backdoor because he had wings and immense power. Now Ares and I had to pay for his arrogance and carelessness.
The legion besieged the Moonshade Villa and extended beyond the forest.
Hatred burned in me. They had come for me, mere moments after Ares had been inside me. He’d just marked me as his, and I hadn’t had time to savor the significance. I’d also just taken a leap of faith and come clean with him that I was his witch and he hadn’t had time to think it over and react either.
Facing my immortal enemies and not seeing the slimmest chance of escaping, my fear rose as strongly as my hate, engulfing me like dark flames.
Ares put two of his fingers into his mouth, ready to summon the guardians.
I laid my hand on his arm. “No,” I said.
He knew what I meant. I didn’t want the guardians and his men to fly into the slaughter.
“I need you to escape while I hold them off,” Ares said in a choked voice. “I need you to live. You’ll take the chance.”
He didn’t plan to survive. Immense anguish and regrets flashed through his eyes. He thought he’d brought this to me. He thought he harmed his mate while all he wanted was to protect her—me.
I shook my head and gazed up at him, a thousand words in my eyes. He let go of his fingers, his face stricken with grief. He knew there was no chance for me—especially not for me—when a legion of Angels had come across the universe and light years to capture me.
No earthling army could overpower such a mighty legion. Only the elite battleships of the High Prince of All Angels could fight it. But the ThunderSong had returned to the Twilight Realm.
I looked up to the sky but didn’t see any enemy spaceships. They had to keep the ships on the other side of the portal, not wanting to alert the High Prince. They planned to snatch me and run.
No one would come for us. No one would save us.
All I had was Ares, and he had me.
“Freyja, my true witch, my true mate,” he said, his thumb moving across my cheek so gently, yet such rage storming in his eyes. Soon, even his fury would be ash as the legion of tens and thousands tore through us.
I half closed my eyes. Such was our fate.
The Oracle had led Ares to me. Had she seen this horror before us?
“When we can fight no more,” I said, “you’ll end me. You’ll never let them catch me. The Dark Lord plans to feed on me and drain me dry.”
“I won’t let them have you,” he said as he moved me further behind him.
As Merlin had said, my mate’s primal instinct was always to protect me first and beyond anything.
An Archangel descended before the vanguard of the legion.
“Hello again, Princess,” Eye-patch called. “Did I catch you at a bad time?” He leered at Ares, then at me, and started laughing.
Ares hadn’t attacked as he was waiting for the best opening. Even though there was no hope, he still hoped I would escape and live a life without him.
“Shouldn’t Dark Lord Atlas come in person?” I asked. “Oh, I forgot. He hasn’t picked all of his pieces together.”
Atlas could project his astral self to every corner of the universe before the Fey Empress and his heir shredded his essence. At the moment, Eye-patch was his eye. Through the link, he watched me from the far end of the hole where he hid like a coward.
“You’re just like your vicious, rebellious uncle,” Eye-patch said. “The High Prince destroyed our species, but at least you can be of use. With your sacrifice, Princess, the High Lord will return and rule again.”
My heart skipped a beat. I’d come clean about being the First Witch, but I wasn’t ready to let Ares know I was a Nephilim—the one and only Nephilim. I didn’t want his last image of me to be tainted. But it was all out in the open. He now knew my most feared, darkest secret. He now knew I wasn’t just a spawn to any Angel, but the monster Angel King, and the bloodline of the most powerful, despicable Dark Lord of All Angels.
Ares still shielded me behind him, his broad angelblade flashing before him, ready to draw the Angels’ blood. And soon, I would fall under that blade, too, as he’d promised me.
At the revelation, Ares remained quiet. He couldn’t look back at me while we faced our worst enemies, but from the slight rising and falling of his shoulders, I knew he wasn’t unaffected by the news.
I gave Eye-patch a razor-sharp smile and stared into his eye with concentration. “I know you can see and hear me, Grandfather,” I said in my most commanding voice. “Dispose of this vessel of yours. He offends my sight. I have no more tolerance to imperfection as you do.”
I wouldn’t mention that I was the cause of Eye-patch’s maimed eye.
A chuckle bo
omed out of Eye-patch’s throat, and I felt a penetrating gaze from him.
A power I hadn’t felt before vibrated in the air.
Holy shit!
Atlas had taken charge of his vessel through light-years of distance.
With shattering essence, the Dark Lord could still command such power. What would he do when he regained full strength? First, he’d return to Earth and deplete it for revenge.
I had only my pack before, but now I had more people I cared about deeply. I wouldn’t let my grandfather destroy their planet.
My blood thrummed in my ear, but I held my ground.
The air crackled tightly. I knew the Angels felt their Dark Lord’s signature power, for they all bowed their heads.
The only one who remained untouched was Ares.
He’d withdrawn half a step to hold my waist. My heartbeat returned to normal. His energy surged to me through our bond, replenishing and anchoring me.
He knew I had a plan, and he was aiding me, though he very much wanted to cut down my grandfather’s possessed vessel, who hovered outside the broken window and stared down at me like a vulture waiting on a corpse.
I had no chance of getting away, but I could still manipulate Atlas to leave Ares alone. As soon as my mate was far away from the horde, I’d slice my throat good and deep with the angelblade hidden in my boot.
The Dark Lord would return empty-handed, except for my bloodless corpse, which would be of no use to him.
“I sense great power in you, Freyja,” Atlas said through Eye-patch. “You’re indeed my granddaughter. I’m delighted and proud.”
Of course he was delighted, he would harvest my essence. And the way he said my name creeped me out.
Ares clenched his teeth, pulling me tighter against him, his knuckles straining all white on the hilt of his sword. I subtly tried to untangle from him, but he only growled.
Idiot, I was trying to get him away from here. I wanted him to live.
“Since you’ve acknowledged me as your bloodline,” I said. “I deserve respect and the privilege as the first and last Princess of All Angels. If you want to see me, Grandfather, all you have to do is to extend an invitation. Isn’t it overdone by sending a horde of thousands to pick me up?”
