  “You have done all that you can. They all knew it would be painful and Lissa will not hold this against you. We are all one, come home Dominic and let me hold you.” Suzanne’s voice, a whisper in his head, guided him home. He landed close to their home, shifting in mid-air, his feet touching the ground, his long silver hair blowing in the warm air.

  Suzanne stood at the end of edge of the cliff, looking out. “It’s so beautiful out here with the three moons. Archer and Granger are playing computer games with the children.” She laughed and looked over her shoulder at him. “I’m afraid Sam is beating them all and it’s not going over too well with our mates.

  “That’s because the little monster cheats.” Granger grumbled and all three of them laughed. Blair moved up beside Suzanne as he took her other side, her long red hair covered her naked back. She wore a green backless negligee of some new material that would rival silk itself. He could see the perfect outline of her butt cheeks and even a hint of moisture that gathered between her legs with his night vision. He brushed her hair back and kissed her neck. “Are you waiting for me, my lady?”

  “I’m always waiting for my mates, but yes I was hoping maybe I could erase that guilt you have and replace with a nice steamy night with me.” Her dark green eyes looked up at him as she turned into his body. “It’s been a while since we have had just a night of passion. No playing, just loving. The kids have eaten; Granger and Archer will get them ready for bed so we can have some quiet time. Then later all of us can join together. We need this Dominic.”

  He slid his hand up her stomach and traced the bottom of her breast. Her breath hitched, but she didn’t move while Blair moved in behind her, cupping her ass cheeks and kissing the back of her neck. “Tell me what you meant about us being one family.”

  Suzanne’s eyes got big as he traced his fingers around her now hard nipple. “As…you know Jaycee, has given us woman a link, a bond between us. Lately the bond has become stronger between Jaycee and Lissa.” She looked away from him, a single tear slipped down her face. “Jaycee and I had to break that bond tonight. All of us did, Cecil, Shelly, Marsha, and Leda. All of us had to break our bond.” Her lips trembled as he glanced at Blair who nodded.

  Blair twined his fingers into Suzanne’s and held her. “Suzanne collapsed and fell to the floor when you started. The entire bunch of women felt something, but Suzanne and Jaycee more so. Archer and I had to break the bond while you healed Lissa.”

  Dominic’s gaze slid to Suzanne’s, her eyes swollen and red. “We are still bonded as sisters, but the pain is no longer there. Lissa sleeps now.”

  King Ladon moved inside him and pushed to the surface, studying his mate. “Temmra, how did she deal with this?”

  With a sigh, Suzanne sat down on the ground, facing the mountains. “Temmra was also affected. She believes it’s this planet.” Suzanne patted the spot next to her, looking up at both of them.

  A large bed appeared and Suzanne was now sitting on the edge of the bed. She rolled her eyes and laughed at Blair. “Haven’t you ever heard of fooling around outside with nature?”

  Blair scooped her up and placed her back against the headboard. “There is no need for us to be uncomfortable. We can enjoy our surroundings and still be pampered a little.” He kissed her nose and scooted next to her.

  Dominic laughed as he moved next to Suzanne. “Blair does like his comforts, but he also likes to spoil his queen.” He nipped Suzanne’s shoulder. “Now, tell me what you and Temmra believe.”

  Suzanne relaxed as both he and Blair wrapped their bodies around her. “Temmra and I feel her guiding us sometimes. For one, I don’t think she wants us here.” Suzanne glanced back at the nice home they built. “I believe she wants us all somewhere else. Temmra told me, she has never seen so much power coming from within the planet itself. In all her travels, nothing this weird has happened.”

  Dominic nodded, feeling the same way. “I too feel the pull. King Ladon has also been brushed with this power. It’s not the gods, it’s something different, more powerful than them, even. Have you also noticed that since Jaycee gave birth, we haven’t seen or heard from either Gaia or Goddess Empusa?”

  Blair sat up and glanced at him. “My brothers and I were talking with Father. Our magic has also changed. Where our magic used to come from Mother Earth, it now comes from this place, but what is even more bizarre is that at first we had no magic here. Last week was the first time I noticed the power coming back. It was as if she was judging to see if we were worthy of this magic and it’s twice as powerful as it was on Earth.”

  “Has all your family been given the gift then?” Dominic sighed when Blair nodded and smiled.

  “Our mother is walking around like a proud hen. She says now that we have been given the honor twice that we should all be very humble. Mom has set up shrine for our new world also.”

  Dominic smiled and nodded. “I think that is a good idea, it might help with others also. Give them something to center themselves with.” He glanced down at Suzanne who had laid her head on his chest. “I’d like to try and contact Goddess Empusa, if you don’t mind?”

  Suzanne rolled her eyes and sat up.

  “Hello, have you forgotten, she’s like a mother to me! Of course I don’t mind, but Dominic, even Temmra hasn’t been able to reach her.” Suzanne was excited, but worried at the same time.

  “Temmra should be able to reach her mother?” Suzanne shook her head.

  “Again the planet is blocking all contact outside this world. I have a feeling if we’re going to bring the others over, we better make sure it’s before the seven days. I believe on the Seventh day, we will be in a new universe.” Suzanne pointed up at the sky and he glanced up.

  Sure enough there past the moons, a smaller planet was forming. The purple, red plant looked small, but he knew from this distance that size didn’t matter.

  “We are going to be very busy the next few days, but for right now, I want you Dominic. I need you inside me. The both of you.” She reached over and pulled Blair down kissing him softly.

  His cock swelled and grew hard. It had been over two days since he had been inside her and right now even his dragon roared to life wanting her. Dragon eyes glanced back at him as she moved her body over his, rubbing her wet pussy against his cock.

  Suzanne leaned down, licking all around his nipple, before she sucked it into her mouth and nipped it. “Don’t ever make me wait two days without having you, Dominic.” A small puff of smoke rose up.

  He grabbed hold of her hips and held her still as he sat up. “And what pray tell are you going to do about it?” Dominic separated her cheeks, while Blair slid in the nozzle of lube into her ass.

  Suzanne got this big smile on her face and nipped his lower lip. “Now, do you really think I’m going to tell you all my secrets? I have to surprise you gentlemen, sometime.” She played with them.

  “Really, I thought we agreed to keep no secrets between us?” He challenged and bit down on the tendon in her neck.

  Her laughter floated on the night air, his head jerked backwards, releasing his hold on her neck. Suzanne’s eyes now blazed with heat. “I believed that also, but it isn’t always true, is it mate.”

  Blair moved off the bed slowly. Suzanne was now furious. She jumped off the bed and ripped off the negligee she had worn for them. “There is no need for this, is there? I mean once you’ve seen a body, you’ve seen it. Plus, I’m sure this body doesn’t match up to Tara’s, now does it?” Fire blew out of her mouth when she glared at him. “Were you even going to tell me about her?”

  Dominic moved off the bed and slowly kept pace with Suzanne. “There was nothing to tell you Suzanne, and you know it.” He snarled getting a little angry himself. “Did I touch her? No.”

  “They think I’m not right for you? That I’m nothing but a slut, their whispers float on the wind. They don’t care that I carry your children or that I was forced to do what I did.” Suzanne turned and glanced at him and he sucked i
n his breath.

  Temmra’s eyes gone, Suzanne’s swollen and tears full eyes stared at him. “Am I enough, Dominic?” She whispered as she stood there alone. The moonlight cast shadows all around her, but enhanced her beauty, if that were even possible.

  Before she could move, he was there with his arms wrapped around her. “You are my love, your body was made for us and us alone. We see no others and desire no one else. How can you even think we would look at anyone else when we have perfection waiting for us?”

  Suzanne banged her head against his chest. “They won’t stop, I hear them all.”

  He lifted her chin up and stared down at her. “Who won’t stop Suzanne, tell me?”

  Blair moved up to them. “Dominic, do you think it’s possible she was infected with the same kind of parasite?”

  Her fingers tightened around Dominic’s arms and she glanced up at him. “I don’t know or remember them doing any of that to me.” She frowned and glanced at her arm. “I do have scars.”

  “Let me see, Suzanne.” He lifted up her arm, but she yanked back. “That hurt, Dominic.”

  “Blair look at the scar. See if something is moving under the skin.” Blair kissed her arm and turned it over. His gaze met Dominic’s, and he nodded. “Now we know how they knew what has been going on around here. We’l have to check Jaycee even though she wasn’t touched by the Bloods.”

  Dominic glanced down at Suzann. He could see the anger simmering behind her gaze. “Get it out now! I swear if I see one member of that gang, I’m going to eat them.” Temmra’s fire puffed out of her mouth, making him jump back.

  Granger moved up behind them. “My father, Adonis and Pierre will be here. They will take us to the medical room. Nikola would like this creature alive if possible; he has created a container to hold it when you get it out of Suzanne. Remi has been told and they will be checking Jaycee’s body. If she has anything they will notify us. Clayton, Bo and the other men are checking their women too.”

  “You might want to have Leda checked as well.” Suzanne smiled up at Granger, then at him. “I have a feeling you are going to be very busy tonight. So much for our night together. Let’s get this done. All of a sudden I’m very tired, Dominic.”

  Holding up a robe, Suzanne let Blair wrap her up as Castor, Adonis and Pierre appeared next to them. “How is Lissa doing?” Dominic asked, taking Suzanne’s hand into his.

  “She is sound asleep. It’s the first night in a long time that she has rested without the nightmares. We have heard from Remi and Jaycee is clean, but I’m afraid Alex found the same thing on Della. They will meet us at the lab. We’re going to have to create a medical hospital here soon.” Castor glanced at Suzanne with worry. “How are you feeling?”

  “I’m fine, but I want this over with.” Suzanne took Castor’s hand and disappeared as he left with Adonis, and Blair came with Pierre. Granger and Archer would stay with the children.

  Suzanne had been right. Tonight would be a long night for him, but he would make time for his queen when she was healed.

  For the next four hours, Dominic worked on his mate and then on Leda. He was physically exhausted. They had two live samples in the container Nikola had made.

  Tomorrow would be another busy day. He gathered his mate in his arms, since she was sound asleep. Her arm bandaged.

  Adonis moved them back to their home. “We’ll see you in a few hours.” Adonis nodded, disappearing.

  Granger and Archer waited for them. “She was very brave even though the pain was a lot.” Dominic laid her down on the bed next to Granger.

  “The children are sleeping, but Sam is worried. He says he can’t talk to Gaia anymore. He’s scared.” Archer leaned over, kissing Suzanne’s face. “She needs to eat, before we sleep.”

  Lifting her head up, Granger woke her up. “Feed Suzanne, then you can go back to sleep.” He cringed when her fangs sank deep into his chest.

  “She is still asleep Granger. I put all three women into a deep sleep. They will sleep for the next six hours without interruptions.” He turned to leave when Blair placed his arm on his shoulder and stopped him.

  “Where are you going? You need to sleep too.”

  “I will be back, I need to talk with the Goddess and if that means leaving here, then it shall be done. Keep her warm, I won’t be long.” Dominic moved through the hallway, anger rippled through him as he ran outside and shifted, when he noticed Archer next to him.

  “You should be home with Suzanne.” He flew toward the rift separating their new home from Earth.

  “She isn’t the only one who needs someone. Right now you are tired and angry, I will not leave you.” Archer bumped him.

  “I’ll be fine Archer, but thank you for your concern.” They moved through the rift and at once, he heard Goddess Empusa voice.

  He sighed with relief. “I hear you, Goddess. I’m afraid none of us have been able to reach either you or Gaia.” He landed on the hillside of mountain and gazed around.

  “We have shifted. It’s going to be more difficult to bring others over. We now come out in China, the Northern Great Mountain,” He spoke to Archer as he gazed down the mountain. “At least this site has not been touched.” He looked to the sky to see Goddess Empusa descend to the mountain.

  They both bowed, but she waved them up. “All the Gods have been cut off from your new land, Dominic. It seems you will be out of our realm and you will be dealing with something, and we have no idea what it is. We are not even being allowed to come I’m afraid, at least for now.” She snapped the last part and moved to stare out at the other mountains. “Both Gaia and I are worried.”

  “I am too. Did you know that Kant is now on earth? We found one attached to Lissa, Suzanne and Leda. I have taken them out of their bodies, Nikola wants to examine two of them. He believes he might be able to trace where our enemy hides.”

  “I should be with Suzanne!” She screamed. “How is she and the babies?”

  “Tired, but very angry. I have a feeling she is going to want to come here personally after the man that put it in her.” Dominic chuckled.

  Archer shifted and he glanced above. “Seems we have company.”

  Goddess Empusa glanced up and frowned. “Not anymore.” With a wave of her hand the three demons burned instantly. “I won’t be disturbed. Have you had any sort of contact with the planet itself? Gaia got the feeling that the land was alive.”

  Dominic nodded. “It is. We all feel as if we are being pointed in some direction. We find that when all of us are together, our connection with our mates is back to normal. Recently Lissa connected with Remi and me. We still have this connection and it’s not going away. It’s as if she too is a mate. We know the female bond has also grown stronger. Jaycee, Lissa and Suzanne are now joined somehow. They feel each other’s pain.” He turned towards the rift.

  “The planet is calling you back, isn’t she?” Goddess Empusa asked.

  “Yes, I have a feeling we will find out more. I will make sure we contact you somehow tomorrow.” Archer shifted and Goddess Empusa hugged him, shocking him.

  She laughed. “Dominic, you are a son to me as Suzanne is a daughter. Take care. I have a feeling this new world is embracing you too, but be cautious. Tell Suzanne I will see her soon, some way.” She took off to the sky and disappeared.

  “I’ll never understand that woman.” He laughed and shifted. “Let’s go home.”

  Chapter Fifteen

  Lissa woke with the inside of her mouth feeling like sandpaper and her body stiff as if she had taken a severe beating. She slowly opened her eyes to see Nikola staring down at her.

  “Morning beautiful.” He tried to kiss her and she covered her mouth with her hand.

  “Need to brush my teeth.” She tried to rise, but his body hovered over hers, he glanced down at her mouth and a fresh winter mint flavoring now filled her taste buds. Lissa shook her head. “Do you want something? Are you in a hurry?”

  Nikola pushed his nose against hers
. “If you don’t kiss me right now, I’m going to turn you over my knee and spank you. Never again will I sit by and watch you go through so much pain. You are getting wrapped in a bubble!”

  For a minute she just stared up at him, then busted out laughing. “Oh my god Nikola, you can’t be serious.” She wrapped her arms around him. “I have to admit, I don’t want to do that again.” Lissa pulled him down. “I have never hated anyone Nikola, but I really hate them for what they did to me.”

  “They will pay, I promise you.” Nikola covered her mouth in a hard, all-consuming kiss, her toes curled, her body heated, and Lissa could have sworn her heart was surrounded in flames.

  Nikola broke the kiss and rested his forehead on her forehead. “I almost lost you and the babies. For two nights we waited for you to wake Lissa. It won’t happen again. I want you to relax today. You had a huge stress on your body and our babies need you rested.” He got up and stared down at her. Adonis leaned down from the other side of the bed and kissed her.

  “Tonight we pamper you, but for today Pierre is going to stay with you, see to your needs and wants.” Adonis said, moving away from the bed.

  She threw the covers back, but Castor was there covering her again. “What do you think you’re doing? We just told you that we want you to rest, plus you are going to be very sore today, Lissa.”

  Lissa swatted his hands. “I’m fine, but I need to go with you. I know you’re meeting with the men, but you need us there too.”

  Nikola leaned on the foot of the bed and stared at her. “We are all having dinner together at the main sight we chose for our gatherings. Whatever you have to say can be said then.”

  “You’re not telling me something Nikola, I can feel it. What else has happened?” she leaned up, and winced as she grabbed her lower back.
