“What’s going on?” Gideon asked as he walked into the room next, followed by Julius, Mano, Chance, and Chordeo. They had packed their bags and were taking her to her home in Hawaii. She desperately wanted to go there, even though Morago had disappeared.
“She found this box with no lock or key to open it,” Edric said.
She showed it to the others.
“That’s strange. Maybe it’s empty?” Chance added. She shook her head. Melena knew it wasn’t empty and then a thought came to her mind.
Ask the gods and they will guide you.
She looked at her men and they smiled. She knew they heard the voice in her head.
She closed her eyes and held the small box to her chest.
The magical feeling encased her entire body. She had the vision flow through her mind, taking her on a journey about the box and its contents. There were three special rings inside of the box. These rings represented three special goddesses who would help to establish a royal hierarchy alongside her and above the circle. They would stand side by side with the gods that ruled above all were, fairies, and creatures of other realms. Melena was shocked as the magic that had protected her thus far lifted from her body. She clutched the box tighter and knew that there was more to come. There would be battles ahead of her and her men. Her destiny now lay in securing these three women who would wear the rings and stand by her side to protect and unite the bonds of all mystical creatures.
She heard her name being called by her men. She realized that they had been blocked from viewing what she had just seen. She had new insight, felt the power within her surround her, and knew that it would always be there to guide her.
Her eyes fluttered open. All six of her mates held angry expressions and she smiled, which only seemed to anger them more.
“This box remains with me. The others go into the vault at Julius’s home.”
Chance grabbed her arm and turned her toward him. “You blocked us out. What happened?”
She caressed his arm as she smiled up at him.
Chance wasn’t used to being kept out of the picture. He wanted to protect her at all times and she knew and understood his personality so well now. The way his dimple was more pronounced when he smiled and the way his eyes darkened when aroused. She was learning about each of her men thoroughly.
“The gods have spoken again to me, Chance. We must secure the contents of this special box. We must ensure that we remain together as one unit, one power to fight what has yet to come. I love you all so much and I know that I am no longer alone and will need you. All of you,” she said as she looked at her men.
“And we will need you, too, goddess. We are here to protect and serve.” Julius bowed his head before he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her to him. He caressed the hair from her cheeks and stared down into her eyes.
“You must learn that you are not always in charge and are the mate to six Alpha men. I’d say you need some more instruction in submission. How about you, guys?” he asked the others as he held her gaze.
Melena pretended concern but inside her belly did a series of flips and her pussy clenched with need for her men.
“Please be gentle.” She threw a hand over her eyes as she closed them and bared her neck to her Alpha wolf.
“Gentle is overrated,” Gideon stated as he began to undress. The others followed as Julius carried her over to the long couch, removing her clothing with his mind, which she was totally getting used to.
She stared at them, her six Alpha men, and immediately forgot any feelings or memories of ever being alone in this world. Her reservations about the future and what obstacle might try to destroy their bond and love diminished with their kisses, their acts of love that brought her pleasure.
Now naked and fully exposed to her six sexy men, she opened her thighs, placed one arm above her head, and used her other hand and fingers to stroke her own pussy as they watched with hunger.
“I need so badly. Can you help me please?” she teased, and Julius shocked her by pulling her thighs toward his naked body so that her ass hung off of the couch and he stared at her with glowing red eyes.
“It seems we are all very hungry, mate. I don’t think we’ll be making our flight this evening.” He thrust into her making her gasp as Gideon grabbed hold of her hands and clasped them with his fingers.
“Wolves and vampires can make love for days.”
“Oh,” she moaned as Julius stroked his cock deeper, harder into her.
“Yes, that’s right, mate. We’ve got fantasies and plans for you,” Chance said, and when she looked at him, he was naked and held a tube of lube in his hands.
Gideon sat down beside her and caressed her breasts. She closed her eyes and relished in their touch until Julius pulled out of her, lifted her by her waist, turned her around, and made her straddle Gideon. Gideon immediately thrust upward into her cunt making her scream his name. Melena held on to his shoulders and rode him hard and fast until he dipped his body lower, making her lose her balance.
She immediately felt Julius’s hands steadying her. A quick glance over her shoulder and Chance threw the tube at Julius. She felt the cool liquid against her puckered hole and instinctually pushed back against Julius’s fingers.
Gideon latched onto her breast and she squealed from the sudden bite.
Her pussy dripped and he thrust upward as Julius pushed his cock through the tight rings of her ass.
Melena felt so out of control and needy.
“Yes, yes, like that, Julius. Harder,” she demanded.
Then Julius and Gideon began a sequence of hard, fast strokes as Melena felt her body erupt in pleasure. She could sense her teeth elongating, her fingernails sharpening, and a growl erupting from her throat. As she exploded along with Julius and Gideon, she bit into Gideon’s neck and fed from his blood as Julius bit into her neck and fed from her. Gideon roared as he shoved upward with his cock.
* * * *
As they caught their breath and recovered, Julius was in shock. He looked at Gideon’s neck and Melena had definitely bit the wolf and sealed the wound.
“Gideon?” He said his name and Gideon smiled, eyes closed and appearing very content. Julius chuckled as Melena pulled back.
“Holy crap,” she whispered and Julius smiled. He stared into her green, glowing eyes, uncertain what exactly she was. Was she wolf, was she vampire, or perhaps a bit of both? There was something more.
“We need her now,” Edric interrupted and Julius looked at him, Chance, Mano, and Chordeo. He nodded his head and kissed Melena before pulling from her ass.
Gideon held her in place then opened his eyes to look at her.
“Something amazing just happened.”
“I know. I need to feed from the others. I need to bite them as they come inside of me. We all need to share the power, strength, and connection. It will help in the battles that lie ahead,” Melena said as Chordeo lifted up off of Gideon and pulled her against his chest.
Julius smiled then sat back in a chair and watched his mate make love to her other mates and empower all of them beyond any fantasy story any of them had ever heard of.
* * * *
Chordeo wasted no time. He pressed Melena against the wall and entered her in one, smooth thrust. She grabbed onto his arms and accepted his attack. And it was an attack. Their mate had glowing green eyes and long sharp fangs and nails that pressed into his skin and called out his wolf.
“Your eyes are gorgeous. Your teeth, fucking sexy.” He took her mouth and ravished her. In and out he thrust into her. There was no holding back, no relishing in their lovemaking. His wolf was on a quest, a mission to fulfill this extra-special bond.
“Harder, Chordeo. Bite me now. Please,” she stated through clenched teeth. He could hear her distressed voice through her fangs. It turned him on, making his cock grow plump and uncomfortable.
“Fuck!” he roared then exploded inside of her as he bit into her neck and she bit into his.
He felt himself lose focus as his blood left his veins and entered her mouth, her body, and her soul. It was outrageous and so surreal. I love you. Together forever. He heard her voice and felt himself relax. His wolf was content.
Opening his eyes, he squeezed her to him until he felt Chance tapping his arm.
One look at his brother’s eyes and he knew he needed their mate now, too. “She is ours forever.” He pulled slowly from Melena as she went willingly to Chance.
* * * *
Chance carried her over to the couch, sat down, and she straddled his waist.
He held her head and neck with his hand and stared up into her eyes. “You look amazing, mate. Your tousled hair, your plump breasts.” He inhaled deeply, showing his own wolf teeth to her. “Your delicious scent.”
She closed her eyes and he shook her hips. She lifted up and immediately took his cock into her pussy. Grabbing onto his shoulders, even her sharp nails that dug into his flesh turned Chance on.
“Harder, faster, mate. Ride me, so I can bite you, too.”
Chance never felt so out of control. Melena had come to mean everything to him. Without her he would be nothing. He sensed Edric move in behind her and Chance lowered his body to give his brother room. There was no preamble as Melena reached back and grabbed a hold of Edric’s cock.
“Now,” she demanded with those damn sexy wolf-vampire fangs that made his cock release a bit of cum.
“I can’t last,” Chance admitted and began to thrust upward. Edric shoved into her ass from behind and Melena howled like a wolf. It wasn’t loud or wild. It was low and sexual. Their wolves fed on that sensation and sound as Chance and Edric shoved into her. Chance exploded inside of Melena and she bit into his neck, sealing their fate. He growled low as content emotion filled his soul and calmed his wolf.
Edric continued to thrust into her, and then he exploded inside of her. Chance watched as Melena reached back, grabbed Edric by his hair, and pulled his face and neck over her shoulder. She bit into him as her breasts pushed forward. Chance cupped her breasts as he watched her teeth and mouth suck onto Edric and feed from his blood. His cock pulsated inside of her as he locked gazes with Edric.
His brother smiled and appeared in a drunken state.
“I’ll never be the same again. I love you, Melena,” Edric said. She smiled as Edric pulled from her ass.
Mano lifted Melena off of Chance and pulled her into his arms.
He hugged her to him as she straddled his waist. Chance chuckled as Mano looked around the room wondering where to make love to Melena.
Melena reached her hand down between them, used the muscles in her thighs to adjust her position and sank down onto his cock as Mano stood there.
* * * *
“Holy fuck,” Mano said as Melena lifted up and down on his cock as he stood in the center of the room. He nearly lost his balance as she nipped along his neck and gripped his outer shoulders while fucking him hard. Taking a few steps forward, he reached the large mahogany desk and thrust on top of her. Pulling her thighs wider and grabbing her legs to wrap around him tightly, he stared down into her glowing, green eyes.
“Mine, now and forever.” He stared at her swollen, large breasts, the blotchy love marks against her skin and her wet, sexy lips.
“Move, Mano, please, baby, I need it hard and fast.” The sight of those fabulous teeth and the fact that she heard his thoughts and allowed him to see her own desires and need awed him.
“Holy fuck, you’re going to bite me and feed from my blood. I want you so close to me. I want to brand you mine for eternity.” He shoved into her harder, faster until he was so hard he exploded inside of her. She gripped his hair, pulled him closer, and bit into his neck. His cock pulsated inside of her cunt as his blood vacated his veins, entered her mouth and linked them like nothing he had ever imagined.
Mano licked across her neck, her breasts, then back to her mouth absorbing the feel of her in his arms.
“I love you, goddess.”
“I love you, too.”
Chapter 18
Melena looked out across land to the view from her family’s estate in Honolulu, Hawaii. The warm tropical breeze caressed her skin as the evening began to fall upon them. The members of the Security Ring were set, the circle of elders secured, and precautions taken to ensure the safekeeping of the Book of the Founding Fathers. She knew exactly where it was and intended for it to remain there. Safe in the vault at Julius’s home after the gods had directed her to its proper location. Morago left behind the diary of Dr. Henry Lesting which contained many disturbing experiments and ideas to destroy the Circle and were law. Her men feared that other copies of the book could be available, so it was now the work of the Secret Order to find those copies and destroy them. There was still so much work to be done.
In her heart, she felt content in knowing that her life would now be filled with pleasurable days with her wolves and nights with her vampire. She shed some tears for her family as she remembered the way they died and how she escaped from death. Her mates were there to support her and love her and she adored them for it. She closed her eyes as the sun began to set, a gorgeous orange, red, and yellow glow cast across the beach and she wished that Julius could enjoy it with her.
They were all bound together and now her true self, her ability to shift, and the powers of were, vampire, and magic flowed through her veins. Their love was powerful and always would be. In these moments, alone on the porch, the gods had revealed so much to her. She was filled with pride, despite the sadness that would surely take time to ease. Being on her family’s land and facing her destiny with an open mind a healing heart made life worth living.
She took a deep breath, tilting her head up toward the brilliant sun.
It happened so fast. The reflection of sun against the blade of the knife as the man in black attempted to strike. She ducked from the first blow, then punched the man directly in the face. He countered, hitting her to the ground. In a flash he was dragging her from the house, pulling her between the trees by the deck.
Morago!
She cried out to her men as she continued to fight him.
Suddenly, something came over her. The hatred for this man and the fact that Morago killed her family and caused her such pain flowed through her veins. She felt the chills run through her body. He went to strike her again, but she somehow counter struck his blow.
“You’ve cost me everything. How did you not die with the rest of your stupid family?” he asked as he showed his wolf teeth and glared at her with hatred and disgust.
“How dare you step near this land, my land knowing that I would kill you?” she replied with just as much conviction.
“Ha!” He laughed at her as if she couldn’t possibly have the ability or power to kill him.
Stupid wolf.
“My men should have killed you, too, back then. It’s a mistake I’m here to rectify.”
He bent for the knife and she moved toward it as well. Grabbing a hold of the knife she pointed it at him.
She could kill him right now. She could end all the feelings of hatred, loneliness, and despair by eliminating this awful, terrible wolf from existence.
“Stop!” Chordeo’s voice echoed on the deck. He and the others were coming to her rescue.
She stared at Morago. The hatred in his eyes, her family’s killer was right before her now. All those years she thought about what she would do when given the chance pervaded her mind.
“You deserve to die,” she said as her teeth elongated and Morago’s eyes turned to large saucers. As her men came running out as well as Vanderlan, she couldn’t take her eyes off the target. All the killing, the massacre of her family and the hatred this wolf dispersed needed to be stopped. He couldn’t remain free or alive. She sensed the need for revenge build up. In the last few days it had lessened. Her men helped her to see the importance of their bond and her position. But now that Morago just attempted to kill her, the need to kill him resurfaced
. She could feel the evil trying to make her kill him.
“Kamea?” Gideon said her name.
She was nearly out of sorts. It was a struggle within herself. Kill Morago and rid this realm of his evildoing, or remember her position as a Goddess of the circle, not an enforcer of death. That was for the gods to handle, not her. What did it matter now that he was dead or alive? Her family was lost forever, but her survival would soon become even more important than anything she could ever want for herself. Revenge was temporary, once he was dead. Let the elders and the gods handle him.
She sensed her mates’ approval of her thoughts. She felt their love, their ability to ease the hatred and shine light on the importance and power of their bond.
“Take him away. Let him suffer by answering to the gods and the circle of elders.”
Vanderlan pulled Morago away from them and disappeared.
She tried to calm her breathing.
“Your eyes were glowing, and your teeth,” Mano said in surprise.
She knew she had begun to shift. She was of the wolf completely. The magic of the gods had kept that a secret, even from Melena.
Big strong arms embraced her from behind and she gasped as Julius kissed the top of her head.
She turned into his hold.
“Julius! What are you doing? The sun,” she stuttered, waiting for him to melt or cry out in pain but he didn’t.
Instead he smiled at her then looked at the sunset.
“It is beautiful. I am glad to enjoy it with you.”
The tears reached her eyes and as she stood on tiptoes to kiss him.
“Julius, how?” Edric asked. Mano and the others now surrounded Melena.
“Our mate has amazing powers. Her blood, mixed with mine, gives me the freedom to roam both day and night now.”
“Then may I suggest you start working on your tan, buddy,” Chance teased and they laughed.
Melena hugged Julius and reached her hand out to hold Gideon’s. They all stood together on the deck and watched the sun disappear into the water.
