"Hurry up…" Johnny shouted.
I looked up into Victor's eyes. They were glowing again and the look on his face was almost primal. He ran his tongue over his bottom lip and I thought of how his tongue usually tastes of whiskey. My hands were working of their own accord. I paused and looked up at him again, "we'll be late." I whispered but he heard me.
"Don't stop now…" He groaned, but apparently some blood leaked to his brain cause he gasped "your eyes." I knew that meant my eyes were glowing that liquid gold color but I was taken aback. My eyes only glowed when the magic was overpowering me. I felt fine, his voice was panicked when he spoke again.
"Alex, baby…please don't stop." I did not answer. I just closed my mouth around him while my hands tugged at his jeans trying to pull them down. It was not long before he had both hands knotted into my hair as I sucked, licked, and even softly bit him, but he growled, pulled himself from my lips, and sunk to his knees on the floor. "I need to be inside you!" He growled. He had both hands on my hips holding me so that I could not move. Then he took me there on the floor, fast and ruthless.
"Vic!" I screamed as felt his fingers digging a little too hard into my hips, but all he did was growl. I looked up into the mirror on the wall about 10ft in front of me to see me on all fours, my hair shining like it was burning; my eyes solid glowing gold and my skin like polished marble, but more importantly was the creature behind me. It did not scare me it seemed like it was meant to be this way. I recognize the glowing jade color of his eyes and his black hair around his face, but his skin was the same shade, black as night, and he was huge. His normal 6 foot 1 frame must have swelled to at least 7 feet but he looked just as perfect to me, his strong body thrusting into me. I was not sure why, but this was not what a normal werewolf looked like. I just knew it, but before another thought could form, my body bucked into what would be my last orgasm of the night and I felt his release, warm and deep inside me. He collapsed onto the floor, breathing in great gasps beside me. I quickly followed suit.
We were quiet for several minutes before either of us spoke. "Are you okay?" Victor spoke carefully as I turned to face him.
"I'm great…that was a…" I stammered.
"I'm sorry…" He interrupted.
"Why?"
"I never should have let it get that out of hand." He was being careful.
"What do you mean?" I was confused.
"Hell, I'm surprised you didn't try to run when you looked up into the mirror to see this…"
"Why would I do that? Can I ask about it though?"
"Sure."
"Do all werewolves look like this?"
"What? No…I'm the only one in our pack who has two shapes."
"Can I see your other shape?"
"Maybe after dinner I'll show you mine and you can show me yours," He smiled, climbing to his feet. His movement caused my eyes to run down his body and I felt the blush burn my face before I spoke, "dear God! Victor! You could have killed me with that!"
"You're so cute!" He laughed out that laugh that only men can do and it's always about a woman. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"Better than before…I think I'm pleasantly numb." I smiled as he offered me a hand up.
"Well I guess that's lucky, you better get dressed and downstairs, before it wears off." He said walking towards the closet that joined our rooms together.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"Getting clothes. Shifting with clothes on tends to ruin whatever you're wearing except metal." He pointed to the floor. "Grab my wallet will you, and meet me in here when you're ready." He continued out of the room. On the floor was his shirt, jeans, and boots, in shreds along with his wallet chain and wallet still attached. Later I found out that all his jewelry stayed on so long as he had the body parts because they were silver and his tattoos were done with liquid silver nitrate in the ink. That's why they always came back. I got dressed as fast as I could, gathered my purse, and went into our bedroom. He looked like Victor again as he sat on the bed. He was dressed about the same only with a black shirt this time, tying his boots.
"Baby, you better call Joey and tell him you're running late." I looked at the clock and about fainted. We were supposed to be at the restaurant in 10 minutes, it would take at least 20 to get there.
"Okay." I texted Joey the news and put my phone away. Finally we made it downstairs but we walked into the living room to find Jenny furiously pulling her clothes on and Johnny on his back on the floor beside the broken coffee table, with the throw off the couch covering him.
"Damnit Alex! You promised! You said you'd keep your magic under control," Jenny raged.
"I'm sorry…" I laughed Johnny looked exhausted." Well that explains why I feel great, we got a full meal."
"What?" Victor was confused.
"Sorry…I can spread the magic to someone else…I made Jenny a Siren for awhile on accident." I smiled up at him.
"Oh…" He laughed and then called to Johnny, "you need a drink man?" All Johnny did was lay there and nod his head. I followed Victor into the kitchen where he pulled a bottle of Jack from the cupboard. Victor took a long swig from the bottle before taking it back to Johnny.
It was easily another 5 minutes till we all made it into the garage. I was starting to feel the tightening of my lower torso muscles. I stopped just short of where Victor was pulling our riding gear out of the locker.
"Alex?" Jenny was confused.
"I'm okay…do you have some girlie meds?" I whispered the last part out of habit.
"Yeah…hang on." Jenny walked over to Johnny's chopper and pulled up the seat to reveal the compartment holding her purse.
"You okay baby?" Victor asked.
"I'll be fine, numbness just wearing off." I smiled and watched that little evil grin spread across his face. I handed my helmet to Jenny, pulled on my gloves and jacket, and then swallowed the pills in her hand.
"Are we going or what?" Johnny groaned and I doubled over in pain but tried to hide it when Jenny said
"C'mon sweetie." She helped me back in to the couch leaving both men in the garage.
"Vic…man where the hell are they…we're gonna be really late," Johnny groaned.
"Yo! John…what do you know about sirens?" Victor asked quietly.
"Not much…what do you want to know?"
"I've got some questions…like why do we kill them…what can they do? How do we know someone is one…can we get a Siren pregnant?" Victor counted the queries off on his fingers.
"Ask your dad, he'd know the answers," Johnny answered. "Dear god how long does it take to fix a little make-up!"
"I have a feeling there's more to this disappearance than that…I bet they're trying to find muscle relaxers." Victor laughed.
"Why?" Johnny asked.
"Alex is a little sore." Victor could not help the devil's smile that spread across his face.
"Dude, you need to lay off her…she's human…just cause you can go over and over doesn't mean she can take that kind of beating. Wait! What's with the look on…you didn't?" Johnny was shocked.
"Yes, I didn't mean to, it was not planned." Victor laughed.
"You shifted to the ½ form during sex? You're lucky she didn't try to run." Johnny was dumbfounded.
"I was surprised…she seemed just fine with it, in fact she kinda liked it," Victor said pulling on his gloves.
"Vic! You could have hurt her. You need to regain some control…wait why all the questions about Sirens out of nowhere?"
"It is important that the last question is answered soon…I can't seem to keep my hands off her. I think it's cool, but I would love to know for sure." Victor was starting to ramble on as Johnny was trying to remember which question was the last one.
"HOLY HELL!" Johnny shouted as he finally clued in. "ALEX is a Siren!"
"Yes." Victor nodded.
"What the hell…how is it even possible…I thought your dad killed the last one."
"Apparently not…we need to know everyth
ing there is to know about them without telling anyone what it's for," Victor said zipping his jacket closed.
"Oh! I know!" Johnny seemed excited as he pulled out his phone.
"Who you callin'?" Victor asked but the question was answered almost instantly.
"Hey Tom…what's up?" Johnny spoke clearly.
"Speaker phone…" Victor requested.
"Hey Tom, hang on, Victor wants a word." Johnny smiled.
"Hi Tom!"
"Hello sir, what do I owe this honor?"
"I wanted to know if you finished that computer program to make the alpha codexes easier to navigate."
"Yes…what about it?"
"I need to know everything that there is to know about Sirens," Victor answered.
"Sure my Prince, right away. I'll send it to your phone." Tom answered.
Meanwhile, back in the house I sat at the bar as Jenny ran up to her bedroom. She came back with a needle and stuck it in my shoulder. The relief was almost instantaneous. "What the hell is in that?"
"Let's call it mystery juice…" Jenny answered.
"Oh…better not said."
"What the hell happened?" Jenny asked confused.
"Oh um…Victor, oh what the hell! Victor has a shape shift form that is fucking huge I mean…" I held my hands out and Jenny stared at my hands and her jaw hit the ground.
"You're screwing with me…no way!"
"No…I'm not…my god Jenny! I'm a little scared…He finished inside me." I sounded worried.
"Okay, we both know it's not the first time that's happened," Jenny laughed.
"Yes! But I'm only fertile at the full moon and same with him. We're out of control. We can't seem to be able to keep our hands off each other."
"Oh…I see you think it's even possible to make a baby with Victor?" Jenny was so serious.
"Is there anything that you can think of to get some answers."
"It's too bad you didn't get more time with your grandma," Jenny answered.
"She was the last one of my kind and she was dead before I was old enough to talk to her about much."
"How'd you get the info you have?" Jenny asked.
"Jacob's sire…and now he's dead too," I answered.
"Well let's get through tonight and starting tomorrow we'll get on that," Jenny answered.
"Okay…let's get going…" I was feeling much better.
"Good idea!" Jenny smiled and we both headed out, climbed on the back of the bikes, and left.
"Amber…I'm gonna go powder my nose wanna come?" Lynn asked, closing her cell phone under the table and sliding it back into her purse.
"Sure…" Amber smiled and gathered her bag. Both women excused themselves from the full table and headed into the open room on the other side of the doors, separating the VIPs from the normal people and as soon as the door swung closed Amber turned to Lynn.
"What's up?"
"Come on…" Lynn led Amber out to the front of the building and out to stand on the sidewalk, hearing the roar of two huge choppers rumbling up the street. Each bike had two people wearing jackets and helmets as they pulled up right in front of the two women and turned off the engines. The first bike was bright blue and the driver was a very tall and thin man wearing a black leather jacket and a blue helmet with a full face mask and a dark visor. The passenger was a thin woman wearing a blue riding jacket and helmet as well. They both wore gloves. The second bike was shiny black and the driver of his bike was very different from the first, just as tall but well-built wearing dark blue jeans and the riding gear, black leather jacket, gloves, and helmet; dark closed face mask like all the others but the fourth rider was the one that was different and familiar. She seemed so familiar in her black leather pants and boots with her pink and white riding gear.
They stared in shock as I took of my helmet, "hi!" I smiled.
"Alex…your brother will have a hard time hearing you rode in on a chopper, you know how he feels." Amber smiled as I handed Victor my helmet. He buckled the chin strap and hung it off the handle bar. I continued to take my jacket and gloves off, draping them skillfully over the seat behind where Victor sat still on the bike. He took off his gloves slowly and tucked them into the jacket pocket, then zipped it closed. I turned and unclipped the chinstrap of his helmet and pulled it off his head slowly. Once his lips appeared, I kissed him passionately as I pulled the helmet the rest of the way off and held it in one hand by the edge.
"I thought you should know first," Lynn said turning to go inside.
"Don't be mad…" I smiled as Victor and I stood before Amber hand in hand.
"Of course not! Um…so…how long?" amber asked.
"Till?" Victor asked confused.
"We've been together since Dallas and we have not decided when the wedding will be yet." I smiled giving Victor a look that clearly said it's a girl thing.
"Well congrats…" She smiled and we all headed inside. We walked into the VIP room and everyone was seated except for Jacob, who stood to the left of the door.
"Victor what are you doing here?" Joey asked
"You son of a bitch!" Jacob exclaimed.
"Jacob!" I snapped, stepping between the two as they sneered at each other.
"Wait?" Joey stuttered. "What?"
"Babe…its okay…" Victor smiled, wrapping an arm around my waist.
"Stop touching her…" Jacob growled.
"Get out!" Joey shouted getting to his feet. All three of us stared at Joey in disbelief. "You heard me Jacob get out…"
"I told you!" Jacob yelled at Joey as he stormed from the room.
"Joe…" I said almost in a whisper.
"Quiet," Joey snapped softly.
"Joe…" Amber whispered leaning into him.
"Can I speak to you?" Joey asked, looking into Victor's smiling face.
"Of course." Victor's smile slipped and both men slipped out into the hall.
"What have you done?" Joey asked sternly.
"Fallen in love with Alex…" Victor answered without hesitation.
"That's not…um, my sister is very special but also damaged and dangerous to admire," Joey said carefully.
"I know about everything…the siren, the nightmare, and the vampire…I understand with that kind of history you worry about her, but trust me, I would die before I let anything happen to her."
"Was this the plan from day one?" Joey asked.
"Yes and no…when I met her I was enchanted, drawn to her, I didn't understand but I had to follow it so when the chance to have her near again came up I went for it. Hell, 'till Tampa Bay I was still marrying a woman from our pack. So did I plan on leaving Lisa? Yes, Did I plan on finding my mate in Alex?…No, I never thought I would find her…But it seems I'm lucky."
"Wait? You're what?"
"Oh sorry, I'm so used to talking about this stuff I forget it's not common knowledge." Victor laughed. "How much do you know about what I am?"
"Not a lot. Chris explained you were a werewolf and that you will be very unstable for the next two days, and that you're very high up the pecking order. That's about it," Joey answered as they sat at the bar.
"I'll explain more about it all later if you like but for now I'll only lay out one thing for you. Wolves have quite a lot of magic that powers them but none to use ourselves. One of the secret magics is called the mated pair or as most people would say soul mates."
"You fucking serious." Joey tried to keep a straight face. "Oh classic Alex…" He started to laugh.
"What?" Victor asked confused.
"Only Alex could have two completely different men convinced that being with her was predestined." Joey was still laughing.
"Yes, well in our case it's true and can be proven. Joey you seemed to like me before all this I hope to keep it that way," Victor smiled.
"So you guys are what just starting out? Um…maybe Alex should move into the place I'm renting for awhile." Joey suggested.
"That's up to her…Joey we're getting married." Victor was being cautious
but wanted everything out in the open.
"That's a bit fast don't you think?" Joey was suspicious.
"We've lived together basically for almost 6 months and became best friends…then soul mates. Why wait?" Victor smiled.
"Is she pregnant?"
"Not that we know of."
"Okay…When?"
"You'll have to ask her…She's in charge of all that I'm just here for the ride," Victor laughed.
"Does our dad know?"
"No, you're the test subject…" Victor took a swig of water.
"Well, as much of a shock all this is, if I think about it, It's not a surprise at all. It's expected. So…Welcome to the family," Joey answered.
"Thank you…" Victor smiled.
"But…let me give you some advice."
"Okay…" Victor said and took another swig of water.
"Knock her up," Joey blurted causing Victor to choke as his water went down the wrong tube. "Breathe! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine…" Victor coughed "just surprised…"
"I mean it…do it now as soon as possible."
"What's the rush?" Victor was finally able to breathe normally.
"Jacob…he will try to kill you and the only way to keep him from doing it is if she's pregnant." Joey answered. "Alex has not been this happy in years and it seems that you are the cause so I say go for it!"
"I'm not sure if we can even have kids," Victor answered.
"You better find out!" Joey smiled.
"Working on it," Victor answered and his cell phone chirped on his belt. "Speak of the devil."
"Victor…I'm serious. If you love her you will take her home and give it your all 'cause a month between full moons is a nice long time for Jacob to work," Joey said getting up from the bar. Victor and Joey came back to the VIP room laughing but Victor's nose was stuck in his phone. He was reading the file sent to him from Tom, the pack record keeper.
Victor,
I checked into it and here is all the info I could find. There are 4 classes of sirens same as witches. Each as different abilities. Red, fire Siren-usually blonde or red haired and light eyes, with cream or tan skin, can lure men with lust and feed off emotion. Blue, water Siren: usually strange inhuman coloring (easy to spot) controls water/aquatic life, feeds on salt…lures men with thirst. Green, earth Siren: brunette only! Lures men by smell, feeds on growth. Black, death Siren: black hair and skin. There's not much about these, just that they have never been seen by any wolf and that they are dangerous. All Sirens share a few abilities: they can take about the same amount of damage as us, they can shape shift, they have magical voices, and they are beautiful. They are only fertile during the moon phase. To kill one, take out heart or head just like us…Its scary all the similarities. Was that everything?"
