“No!” Garth didn’t hear anything as Dana and Theodore jumped from one of the balconies, ripping Whitney from Jonas’s arms before he could do any damage. Frank moved with speed that even surprised him, catching Whitney as she fell.
“You have to help Marci!” She screamed holding his gaze in Frank’s arms. “They stabbed her as she struggled with them, trying to protect me.” Whitney cried into Frank’s chest.
Frank kissed Whitney softly and handed her over to Cruse after he made sure she had not been injured, joining him as Garth moved through the tunnels following Marci’s blood trail. “She’ll be fine Garth.” Frank snarled half man half beast.
Garth nodded to his brother Turck who went with Snaid down the right tunnel while Frank, Rafe, Maddock and he went followed the trail. Oh, he knew Marci would heal, but that wasn’t the point. She was supposed to be safe here and twice now, someone had tried to kill her.
“Just wait till I get my hands free; you’re dead meat Marc!” Marci’s voice filled the tunnel and Garth grinned as they all turned the corner to see Marc and four men holding Marci captive.
Marc squeezed her breast and taunted him. “She does have nice tits, doesn’t she? Maybe I’ll let the others have her while you watch.” He nodded to the two men who held her; they ripped her pants from her body along with her halter top.
“Those were my favorite pants, you filthy pigs.” She screeched, but Garth could see the tears in her eyes and he knew she was remembering her mother.
“You know Marc I should have known something was wrong when you or Jonas couldn’t find the way here when we first moved here. I mean, it’s pure instinct for us to know our way around here. At least it is for true bloods. Tell me Marc, is there anything you want to say before you die.” Garth released the beast, claws replaced his fingers, bones crunched and he snapped his teeth. The anger that he’d held back for the past two months rose to the surface and Garth held nothing back.
Turck and Snaid came in behind them through the other tunnel, surprising those that held Marci. Garth jumped, grabbing Marc around the neck and picking him up, squeezing. “You killed our fathers, but that wasn’t enough. Now you attack and hurt our mate.” He snarled, his fangs close to the smaller man’s throat.
The small man grabbed at his hand, trying to dislodge the fingers around his neck. “You could have had it all, but you had to follow that monster. Then you bring that slut into our family!” He screamed as Garth squeezed tighter, the fighting over behind him.
“Garth.” Marci whispered behind him, bringing him back from the fog of desperation and anger. He reached up and ripped Marc’s head from his body, dropping it to the ground. Slowly he turned to face Marci. She held her side, the wound slowly healing.
He growled and scooped her up into his arms, jumping into the air. Garth didn’t say a word as he flew out of the tunnels, to his home. His brothers followed, all of them needing to clean her and heal her and know she was safe. The connection he had with his brothers, he now had with Marci. She was tired and sick of all the death that seemed to follow her around.
“You know I kind of like this silent he-man treatment. The look on your face before you scooped me up into your arms was enough to make any woman cream herself.” She kissed his chest trying to lighten the mood even though she screamed inside. “I’m tired Garth. So many want me dead.”
Garth landed on his private balcony and opened the doors to his room, glancing down at her. She sounded so lost, like she was giving up. Marci looked as fragile as a porcelain doll and he didn’t like it.
He laid her down on his bed, Snaid and Turck moved into the bathroom as he sat down next to her, brushing her hair out of her face. “Don’t give up, Marci. Where is all the fight? Where is the woman who hid from five alpha men, and succeeded in driving us crazy?”
Chapter Seven
Marci glanced around the large male bedroom. She could have sworn an army of horses had stomped all over her body she was so tired. The black satin sheets were cool against her naked skin, Maddock and Rafe paced at the edge of the bed while Garth held her hand waiting for an answer.
“I’m tired Garth, that’s all.” She smiled and squeezed his hand. “Since the age of six, I’ve had to fight for everything I’ve ever had. For once I just want a nice quiet evening. I think I’ll just sleep the rest of the night away.” She turned on her side and curled up to the pillow next to her.
Garth curled up next to her, his warm hard body against her tired one. His large arms pulled her into his chest and hugged her. “Not tonight, Marci. I won’t let you give up. You’re going to get up and take a nice hot shower, wash away the death with me. Then together all six of us are going back to the party, but when we go back, we go back as the ruling pack of our kind. You won’t hide anymore and neither will we. We’re going to take back what should have been yours a long time ago. You were meant to rule by our side Marci, and no one is going to stop that.” He leaned over and bit her shoulder, making her jump.
“Now let’s go. Turck and Snaid have the water running and we have an announcement to make.” He pulled her off the bed, her wound now healed, and threw her over his shoulder, smacking her butt. “Plus, we have a surprise for you.”
“Hey, I was just stabbed, ya’ know.” She complained as he stepped into the largest shower she ever saw.
He lowered her down in front of him, Truck, Snaid, Rafe and Maddock stood under the spray of the other showerheads letting the water flow down their bodies. She sucked in her breath watching the play of muscles as they washed themselves.
Marci felt like she was in a candy store. She didn’t know which body to attack first. She licked her lips and stepped up to Truck, and licked around his nipple, her hands slid down his wet body towards her prize, but were stopped, and she moaned.
“Hey, I was just reaching for my prize.” She pouted as Garth laughed and shook his head. “You will not touch, just stand there while we take care of you.” He lifted her arms and secured them in the ties that dangled from the ceiling.
“These better have not been used on someone else, Garth?” Marci snarled and glared at him. He grinned and rand his hand down her body.
“You are in no position to question, my dear, but no, they were put in here recently. They were meant for you.” Garth grabbed the bottle of liquid lavender soap and squeezed some onto her breasts while behind her Turck’s magical hands scrubbed her back. Rafe and Maddock were at her legs and Snaid stood back watching while he stroked his cock.
Four sets of hands cleaned, teased and worked her body up to a high pitch. They all stood back as Snaid moved around her, he tweaked her nipple, slid two fingers in and out of her pussy, and a single finger slid into her ass, then out, until Snaid moved in front of her and grabbed her hair, pulling her head back and staring into her face. “Do you need something, Marci? Beg me, Marci, to take your pussy while Garth takes your ass. Did you really believe we would leave you needing us?” He lowered his head and nipped her breast. “I’m waiting, don’t make me wait.”
His voice dropped an octave and she shivered by his order. “Please Snaid, I need your cock in my pussy now and Garth in my ass.” She moaned when he jerked her head to stare at him again. “Now was that so hard, beautiful?” He kissed her lips softly.
“Wrap your legs around me, Marci.” He released her hair and grabbed her legs, stepping between them. Garth moved behind her, his cock now lubed and ready.
Marci hooked her legs around Snaid and grasped onto the chains that held her wrists. Garth’s cock brushed against her ass, but was soon sliding into her. “You are so beautiful all chained up waiting for us, never knowing what or when we will touch your.” Garth snarled into her ear and pulled half way out of her ass when Snaid pushed into her pussy.
All thought and reason slipped from her mind, both men took control of her body, a caress her, a nip there, and their cocks working back and forth into her body with a force she craved, fast and hard. “That’s it, Marci, let us take
you where only we can take you. Your body is ours to control, play with and love.” Garth grunted, holding onto her hips as he sank his cock deeper into her ass.
Snaid leaned down capturing her cry as the orgasm roared through her body, her legs shook and she would have fallen if Snaid didn’t hold on to them tight against his body all the while he still pushing in and out of her. “Another Marci. That was small, give us another one and we want to hear you scream.” Snaid demanded as Garth reached around and rubbed her clit, while he slapped her ass.
“More, I need more!” She pleaded and banged her head onto Garth’s chest, her grip on the chain rattled as she tried to shift her position, but they held her still, only moving faster and harder into her.
Garth grabbed onto her clit and pinched it, spanking her ass, while Snaid sucked her nipple into his mouth and bit down on it. Rafe moved in and sucked her other breast into his mouth and Turck spanked her other ass check while he kissed her.
It was too much having four sets of hands on her when Mad-dock kneeled down next to them and worked his finger into her pussy along with Snaid’s cock. “SHITTTT!” She screamed, her body shook, her vision blurred and muscles in her legs cramped up as the second orgasm ripped through her with a force she’d never experienced.
Snaid snarled his seed pumped into her while Garth moaned and his seed flowing in her ass. The straps were released and Turck and Rafe both rubbed her arms. “Marci what did you do to yourself?” Turck asked licking her palms that were raw from grabbing the straps.
She moaned, and would have fallen if Garth didn’t hold her up when he pulled out of her. “Hmm, had to hold onto something, need to sleep.” Marci tried to snuggle into Snaid’s chest, but he laughed, pulling out of her and away from her.
Cold water beat down on her body, making her jump and scream. “What the hell?” She swiped at Snaid who only danced out of the way with the hose in his hand.
“We have a party to go to. Now get moving.” He ordered and turned off the water.
* * *
Garth hid the smile as he watched his furious mate storm out of the bathroom in a towel. He dried his body and moved into his closet, grabbing the tux he had in the back. Dressing he heard Marci cussing up a storm as she tried to untangle her hair and dry it. “I swear this is useless without my things.”
Garth stepped out of the closet to see Marci squeal with happiness when a black bag appeared in the bathroom. She disappeared into the bathroom shutting all five of them out. Garth laughed and shook his head moving into the living room where his brothers now stood in their tuxes. A limo had been called to take them to the ruins once more, but this time they would go as rulers of their kind.
He stared out at the forest, Turck stood next to him. “You do know this is going to stir up some kind of trouble sooner or later?” Turck took a drink of his bourbon.
Garth snorted. “When hasn’t our lives been filled with trouble, but now we have someone to protect and love. If they can’t accept this we leave, plus I believe we will be too busy with the meeting taking place in a few months with the weres and the vampires. You know many of them are not happy with Frank taking over.”
“And I plan to be there to support my sister, no matter what you think,” Marci said coming into the room dressed in a black and gray gown. The gown shimmered when she moved, her breasts were barely covered and she wore black spiked heels that showed off her bare long legs, for the dress was slit all the way up to her thighs. Part of her hair was twisted up into a bun on top of her head while part swung down to her butt.
“As you should be and we will be there to support them also. The elders of our clans have decided a while ago that Frank will lead us into the new era, while we work on the problems within our race.” Garth moved around Marci and ran his hand down her arm to the slit at her thigh. She wore nothing under her dress just like they liked.
“I think I’m going to have to buy many more dresses for you. I love being able to touch you any time I want.” Garth slid his hand under her dress and cupped her mound. “But we must go now. It’s almost midnight and we have something special planned.”
He removed his hand and held out his arm. Marci hooked her arm into his. Turck took her other arm and they escorted her to the limo all the while keeping their eyes on everything around them.
Garth moved into the limo and pulled Marci into his lap. “You do know others were watching outside right? There had to be at least twenty out there in the forest.” She glanced out the window at the passing forest.
“There will always be others watching us, Marci. I’m afraid that is never going to stop, but they weren’t a threat. We made sure of that before we brought you out of the house.” He turned her to face him. “If anything ever happens and we are under attack, my brothers and I have talked. We want you to go to Frank and Whitney. We’ll know to look for you there.”
Marci sighed and laid her head down on his chest. “You know it’s sad on a day where a woman should be celebrating, her mates have to tell her if they get attacked to meet somewhere. Sometimes I wish I was human, and could have a normal wedding and a home with a white picket fence. Never to have to look over my shoulder wondering who will attack us next.” Marci sighed. “But I guess if it meant giving up the five of you, I would rather have the five of you then a ‘normal’ life.” She nipped at his chest.
The limo pulled up into the tunnel that lead to entrance to the buried city below. Garth laughed and cupped her breast. “You would be bored with normal Marci, but I am sorry we can’t give you peace right now.”
She patted his arm and kissed his cheek. “As long as I have the five of you next to me, I’m a very happy woman.” The car stopped and Snaid opened the door, checking out the surroundings before he nodded and helped her out of the limo.
Frank, Whitney, Cruse, Theodore, Dana, Allie and the two men that were with her earlier waited for Marci at the entrance. Marci laughed and hugged Whitney and Allie who surrounded her.
“Well you are now officially off the market. What the hell am I going to do with two of my best friends taken?” Allie pouted and Marci laughed.
“Hey, anytime you need to hit a club you call and we’ll go. Just because I’m taken does not mean I can’t go out dancing or hanging with my sisters.” Marci glanced back at him really quick and he laughed.
“We’re not going to stop you from going out with your sisters, but at least one of us will be going with you if you decide to hit the clubs, if not all of us.” Garth wrapped his arm around her and pulled her back into his body.
Frank smacked him on the shoulder and shook his brother’s hands. “Congratulations, Marci you have five very close friends of mine that would give their lives for you. If you six ever need anything, you let us know and we will be there for you.”
“Thank you, my friend. And the same goes for us. You are all family now since Marci considers your family which means you are under our protection also.” Frank laughed again while Cruse and Dana ribbed Turck and Snaid.
Whitney’s parents moved into the small alcove and Marci flew into her father’s arms. “I want to thank the both of you for everything you have done for me. Without the two of you and Whitney, I don’t know if I would have lived. Thank you for giving me a reason to live.” Marci stepped back and wiped the tears that fell down her cheek.
Whitney’s mom glanced at him then at his brothers. “I expect a nice formal wedding soon? Just because you did the claiming thing will not get you out of marrying our daughter as we expect it of Whitney’s mates also.” Her mother pointed to all of them and the girls busted out laughing.
Garth snarled and grabbed onto Marci again. “What are you laughing at?” He nipped her neck and she patted his arm.
“I just realized how much Whitney and her parents mean to me. I can’t lose them too Garth. Promise me we’ll make sure they are okay during all of this. The thought of losing them…”
“Hush, nothing is going to happen and we’ll help Frank with
any protection for them. Now come on, we have a party waiting for us.”
He escorted Marci down the tunnels to the balcony he had been standing on when the party had started. The crowd packed into the main room waiting, the music stopped and all eyes turned to them. Marci sucked in her breath and released the magic on her mark.
Garth smiled, moving to the microphone.
“I want to thank everyone for coming tonight, and to thank you for your support earlier. As many of you are aware, my brothers and I have been searching for our mate for many years. We knew we would share one special woman.” Garth held out his hand and Marci put her small hand into his and stepped up next to him. His brothers moved surrounding them.
“I would like to introduce you to our mate, Marci VanNorris, and hopefully after tonight, she will be Marci Reyes.” Garth knelt down in front of her, and taking her hand he kissed it while his brothers also knelt around her.
Marci’s eyes got all watery and her hand trembled. “Our love, will you do us the honor of becoming our wife, lover, sexual slave and our best friend to all of five us tonight, here. We promise to always put your needs before ours, to protect you and your family always.”
Chapter Eight
Tears streamed down her face, she was so going to kill Garth when this was over. The room was quiet, she glanced up to see Whitney on the other balcony with her mates. She stood there crying with a huge grin on her face. Whitney patted Frank’s arms that wrapped around her belly.
Garth squeezed her hand and her gaze flew back to his. “I would be honored to be your wife, lover, sexual slave and best friend whenever you want.” The crowd roared down below, all five men stood as Garth slipped on a large green emerald and diamond ring.
He pulled her into his arms and kissed her lightly, when Turck pulled her into his arms kissing her, Snaid, Rafe and Maddock all took their turns kissing her and smiling. When they were done, Garth turned to Frank and nodded.
