Spring's Destiny

by Deausha Kristal

  Taking my hand in his, we make our way outside, he lets his wings out and wraps me in his arms and takes to the air. So much for me being ready. I grab him harder and hear him chuckle.

  “So, what’s the plan, once we get there?” I ask over the wind.

  “We will go in like regular people and see what’s going on,” he says. Nodding, I tuck my face into his chest and enjoy the flight. Being in his arms is what’s most enjoyable.

  Chapter 18

  He lands behind the bar in the back alley and gently sits me down.

  “How do I look?” I ask, smiling. He looks down at me grinning.

  “Hot, sexy, I want to take you home and make love to you all night long,” he says chuckling.

  “OK, here’s what’s going to happen. I’m going to go ahead of you guys and go in, you follow ten minutes later,” I say, looking around. “We need to draw them out, what better way than to use me as bait? Change your looks so that they don’t know who you are.” Sammy comes over and gives me a quick kiss on the lips. Man, I love the taste of him. I’m such a slut. Hearing Nick growl, I look up at him.

  don’t like it but will go with it for now,” he says. Taking a deep breath, I head around to the front of the building, stopping to watch as some younger guys go in. Well, it’s now or never. Stepping forward, I head to the door. Opening up, the heat and odors hit me first. Taking a deep breath, I walk in letting the door slam closed behind me. The music is so loud that it shakes the small window to the side of the door. Looking around, I notice Maddox sitting in the lounge area.

  Here’s my chance to see what’s going on. Walking down the three steps, I walk across the dance floor, feeling eyes on me I know that a few men are checking me out. Pushing my way through the dancers, I walk over and stand in front of Maddox; his goons go to grab my arm. Calling my energy, I let my tattoo flair to life.

  “I don’t think you want to do that!” I say looking at them. I don’t want to start the fight right now, but I will if I have to. Sensing that, they back off. Turning, I look over at the women sitting next to him. She’s looking me up and down.

  “Leave,” I say to her. She doesn’t put up a fight and gets up and walks away.

  “So, you going to be rude and not ask me to sit, Maddox?” I ask, smiling. Looking down at him, I watch as he looks me up and down. I got to play the part. Shivering, I grin.

  “Please, Spring, sit with me. Would you like your favorite wine, my dear?” he drawls. Sitting down, I make sure to sit close so that our legs touch.

  “I would love some, you spoil me too much, Maddox.” He raises his hand, and the waitress comes over with a glassful of wine. She also brings a bucket of ice, setting the bottle down. I watch as one of Maddox’s guys hand her a huge tip.

  “So, Spring, where are your guardians this evening?” he asks running his hand down my leg.

  “I got bored of them; they can be pushy. I gave them the slip,” I murmur. Licking my lips, I look over at him.

  “They can be a pain in my ass,” he murmurs. He looks over to his men, a few leave and walks around the bar. Thank God, I had them change their looks.

  “So, what have you been doing?” I ask him, taking a sip of my wine, I hate to admit this, but he’s got great taste in wine.

  “Nothing of importance really, what about you, Spring?”

  Moving closer to him, I say, “I crave more than this wine, Maddox.”

  “Would you like to go somewhere a bit more private, they have this back room that is comfortable,” he murmurs running his fingers down my ribs.

  “Do your goons have to go? You know it can be a bit intimate, and I don’t like others watching.”

  “Come,” he says standing up, reaching his hand out to me. Reaching up with my free hand, I let him pull me up, I trip a little into him, and he catches me. Running his hand down my back, he grabs my ass and squeezes. Giggling, I smack his arm playfully and walk next to him through the crowded room. His men stay where they were. Looking over at the bar, I see my men; I hope they take this opening I gave them and take out his guards. We stop at a door, and he opens it. Walking through, he closes it and locks it behind me.

  Not giving me a chance to say anything, he picks me up and sits me on the desk. Spreading my legs apart he stands there between them. Bending down, he kisses me roughly, then takes his tongue and licks my lips until I part them. His tongue plunges into my mouth, sending my head spinning. Grabbing the front of his shirt, I pull him closer.

  “I want more, Maddox,” I whisper. He takes his hand and makes a small cut on his neck, bending down so that I can reach it. He grabs the back of my head bringing it to his neck. Taking the tip of my tongue, I run up the line of blood until I’m right over the cut. Sinking my teeth into his neck makes the blood run faster. Hearing him groan, he moves his hands to my hips and pulls me closer so that I can feel his hard-on. He rocks into me; the feeling is outstanding. I can feel his need and desire with every lick of blood. Licking the wound closed I break away from his neck. He runs his hand up to squeeze my breast. Crying out, he starts to unzip my shirt, grabbing his hand I hold it in my own.

  “You know that we can’t, Maddox,” I whisper. Looking into his eyes, I know he knows it too.

  “Why do you say that, my Queen?” he says, licking my neck, teasing me.

  “Because you want me for someone else, Maddox,” I say. He stops his playing and looks at me, pulling my hair back, making my neck hurt.

  “He doesn’t have to know about our playing, my Queen. Just once, that’s all I’ll need,” he says. I stop his hand once more.

  “Who is this someone?”

  His hand runs down to my hip, squeezing, he kisses me, “We call him Luc.” Grabbing the paperweight that’s sitting on the desk behind me, I kiss Maddox one last time. I raise the paperweight over my head; I bring it down hard on the back of his head. He slumps forward, leaning heavily against me. Pushing him off, he lands hard on the floor. Fixing my shirt, I jump off the desk making my way to the door. Unlocking it, I open it up to find Sammy and Andy running down the hall.

  “Damn, guys, I had to take matters into my own hands. What took you so long? I almost got jiggy with Maddox,” I say, frowning.

  “You’re kidding, right?” Andy says looking at me.

  “No, I’m not kidding. After feeding he was horny, and before you ask I was the one sucking not him,” I say grinning. Watching the guys flinch I almost laugh. Making our way down the hall, we walk back into the bar.

  “Hey, did you guys take out his men?” I ask, looking around to see if I can find Nick.

  “Yep, but we got to move there will be more coming,” Andy says. The guys each grab an elbow and lead me through the bar and out into the cold night air. I don’t see any of our men out here.

  “What’s going on, where are the men at?” Sammy looks up for a few seconds, when he looks back at me, he’s got a grim look on his face. My arm starts to glow. Well, that hasn’t happened quite like this before.

  “Guys, we got incoming, and I mean a lot,” I say, looking around to find the threat. I can’t pinpoint where it’s coming from. Looking over at the guys they are looking around the same as me.

  “We need to get out of here,” I say, panting. Doubling over, I grab at my stomach. Andy runs over and wraps his arms around me. Breathing heavy through the pain, I look up at him.

  “Something’s wrong; I hurt bad, something pure evil is coming,” I moan. “And he has a name, finally.”

  They both let their wings lose, Andy moves so that he can wrap his arms around me, stepping closer to him I drape my arms around his neck. We take to the sky like a rocket shooting up.

  “We have to hurry, it’s coming, and we won’t be able to take it,” I grit out.

  “What are you feeling, Spring?” Andy asks.

  “I don’t know, my stomach hurts bad, and I have this horrible feeling, but at the same time excited,” I tell him.

  He doesn’t say anything for a while. Looki
ng around, I know we are getting close to home. I still feel that evil coming on our heels.

  “Nick and the other men know we’re coming in hot. I promise I’ll get you to safety, Spring,” Andy says.

  Holding on tighter, he dives in the direction of the driveway. Touching down, he grabs my hand running for the door. There are men all over the place, in the air and on the ground. Making our way into the house, Nick rushes over and grabs me, pulling me close. Maggie comes across with a blanket and hot tea. Moving out of Nick’s arms I walk over and sit down, taking the blanket and tea. Bringing it to my lips, I take a sip.

  “OK, guys, tell me what’s going on,” I say, looking around. Everyone looks over at Nick.

  “We are on the verge of war, Spring, and we are going to have to fight. You will be in the middle of it; it can’t be helped, it’s what you’re for,” he says.

  “I know all of this, what I don’t, know is when,” I say. That pure evil is Luc.”

  “We don’t know, it will just happen, so we need to be ready,” Nick says. “I don’t know a Luc.” Feeling better, I get up and head for the stairs, taking them two at a time. I open my bedroom door, and Stayne and Tanner run in behind me jumping on the bed. Stayne is so, big there’s not a lot of room, left on the bed. Tanner finds a place and lies down. Walking over to the bathroom, I start the water, stripping out of my leather clothes. Standing there, I wait for the tub to fill up. When it’s almost full, I flip the switch and start up the waterfalls. I sink down letting the water cover my body into its warm embrace. Closing my eyes, I try and relax. My stomach still hurts a little, and I don’t know why.

  Hearing a noise, I look up and see Nick standing there. Smiling, I look into his eyes. He grabs a washcloth and puts body wash on it. He starts on my arms cleaning them, next is my back. It feels superb. Watching him, he sets down the cloth and puts soap into his hands running them up and around my breasts. I start to feel the tingling in my stomach, he runs his hands over my taut nipples, and my breath catches.

  “Why does my stomach still hurt. We are safe,” I ask.

  “I can fix that for you,” he says huskily. He walks over and starts the shower, taking off his clothes he comes across and picks me up. He walks us into the shower, sitting me on the ledge. He spreads my legs and kneels in front of me. Holding my breath, I know what’s about to happen. He dips his head low between my legs. His tongue is hot as he licks my pussy hard. Arching into his mouth, I grab his hair. He growls and nips me pulling hard on my pussy. Moaning, I pull him up so that I can kiss him. He nibbles my lip, and I feel him enter me in one powerful thrust. Screaming his name, he starts to pump into me. We stumble out of the bathroom and into the bedroom where he lays me down on a pile of blankets in front of the fireplace. He enters me again and makes love to me then slow and sweet.

  Chapter 19

  Feeling a wet nose on my cheek, I open my eyes. Staring at me is not Tanner but a little hellhound. I don’t see Nick anywhere. The little hell hound jumps on top of me and grabs my hair pulling. He starts to growl, and he sounds so much like Tanner.

  “Now, now let go of my hair,” I say to him, but this just makes him growl even louder. Hearing a deep growl, I look up to see Stayne come padding into the room, the little pup stops pulling my hair and runs for Stayne.

  “Who is this little one, Stayne?” I ask, raising up on my elbows.

  “He is my son, my Queen. I’m sorry that he came in here and bothered you. He lost his mother two days ago, and I didn’t know where else to bring him,” he says.

  “Of course, he can stay here, Stayne, what’s his name?” I ask.

  “Trick, my Queen,” he says.

  “Come here, Trick,” I murmur. He runs over to me tripping a few times and lands on my lap. Picking him up in my arms, I cuddle with him. He lies on his back and lets me rub his belly. Tanner runs over and joins the fun.

  Stayne looks tense.

  “They are fine, Stayne, why don’t you go do what you need to do, I’ll watch the pups,” I say, smiling at him.

  “It would be an honor to let you watch my young pup. Thank you, my Queen.” He says. Watching him I know he’s talking to his son; he then looks over at Tanner. Stayne walks out of the room, while I watch the little pups play. They both come over once in a while to be loved on, they are cuddle bugs. Looking over at the fire, I see that Nick put more wood on the fire. Seeing a large shirt next to where I’m lying I grab it and put it on. There are undies there too. Getting them on, I get on my hands and knees and start to play with the puppies. It’s so relaxing being with them.

  The puppies stop playing and start growling at the door. I watch as the handle turns, and the door opens up. Nick comes walking in with a food tray, Tanner runs over and jumps on his legs in greetings. Laughing, I look over at Trick, his hair is still sticking up. Crawling over to him, I scoop him up into my arms.

  “It’s OK, little one, Nick’s a good guy,” I tell him. He stops growling but still watches him. I feel him scoot closer to me. Rubbing his ears, I watch, and Nick comes over and sits down next to me.

  “Cute little hell hound you have there, Spring,” he says, laughing.

  “I know, this is Stayne’s little one,” I say.

  “Yeah, I was there when he came through the porthole with him, the little shit bit Andy,” he says smiling.

  “Oh, no, is he going to be OK?” I ask.

  “Yep, it just really hurts like hell,” Nick says. The pups start playing again over by the bed, moving closer Nick wraps his arms around me holding me close.

  “I got some food for you,” he says. Looking down, I see there’s fresh fruit and eggs and bacon. Grabbing some fruit, I pop them in my mouth watching the pups play. Nick comes around behind me and leans me back so that I’m leaning back against him. He runs his arms up my sides.

  “May I stay with you tonight?” he murmurs in my ear. Smiling, I act as though I’m thinking about it. He starts to fidget.

  “I would want no other,” I tell him. Running my hand over his head, I grab a fist full of hair and tug him to me. Looking him in the eyes, I bring our lips together, for one stunning kiss. Suddenly, I get knocked in the chest, grunting I break off the kiss and see Trick on top of me. He starts kissing me like crazy, anywhere Nick kissed me he’s covering it up.

  “That blasted pup is trying to cover my scent up with his,” Nick says. Laughing, I cuddle with Trick.

  “Silly puppy, now go play,” I murmur to him. He takes one last look at Nick and trots off to join Tanner under the bed.

  “He is such a cute little guy.”

  “If you like hellhounds,” Nick grumbles. Watching him, he gets up and heads for the door.

  “Time to get ready, Spring, we have training to do. I’ll meet you downstairs outside,” he says as he makes his way out the door. Groaning I stand up stretching, and walk over to the bathroom where I get ready.

  Heading to the door when I’m finished, I yell for the pups, they come bouncing over to me, and we head into the hallway. I laugh as they go tumbling down the hall tripping over each other. Hearing a loud crash, I run for the stairs running down them I see that the pups are piled up on Faith, she must have dropped a bunch of plates or something. Looking around, I know a few people watching her along with Stayne.

  “You stupid little dogs,” she sneers, grabbing them by their little necks. The puppies start to whine in pain.

  “Let them go now, Faith,” I yell. I feel my hand start to heat up. Looking around, no one moves.

  “These stupid little things made me drop all this stuff. I’m going …” Stopping her, I get to her in one leap. Grabbing her by the arm, I twist her arm back making her let go of the pups.

  “When I tell you to do something, do it!” Letting my energy go, it flows into her arm, and she screams out in pain.

  “Don’t ever let me see you touch one of these pups again. Do you hear me?” I yell at her.

  She falls to her knees, but I don’t let go of her arm, stil
l pumping her with my energy.

  “You bitch, let go of me,” she snarls. Letting go with my hand, I grab her by her throat and slam her against the wall. Drawing my arm back, I let it fly, punching her right in the mouth. Blood starts to trickle down her chin.

  “I want you out of my house in ten minutes, Faith. If I ever see you again, I’ll kill you.” Letting her go, I bend down to check the puppies.

  “Stayne, please make sure she gets her stuff and leaves,” I say to him. He bows his head and takes off after her.

  “Do what you must, if she doesn’t listen.” He gives me a low growl and runs down the stairs. Looking over at the others, they start to go back to what they were doing. Squeezing the pups, I head into the kitchen and put them down. Filling their bowls with puppy food I go to the fridge and grab some juice. Maggie walks in and sits down next to me. I pour her a glass and slide it in front of her.

  “Thank you, my Queen; you did right by her. She would have been trouble with you anyways,” she says. Taking a drink, I smile at her. Watching the pups, they eat everything in their bowls then dart outside.

  “I don’t like pulling rank like that, but I will never let anyone hurt these animals,” I say, looking over at her.

  “Spring, you are the Queen, nothing else needs to be said. Not once have I thought you would abuse your power,” she says.

  “Thank you, Maggie, I’m sorry I took your help away, you may pick someone else to help you,” I say, standing up I put the juice away and put my glass into the sink, “until then I will help you out.” Squeezing her shoulder, I put my coat on and head outside to the side of the house. Turning the corner, I stop to watch all the men work out and fight each other. They are beautiful, some have their wings out, while others don’t. Andy comes walking over to me smiling.

  “Ready to start training, Spring?” he asks.

  “Yep, sure am; you are training me?” I ask him.
