Ceric

by Alexi Ferreira

  Brielle is now sitting next to the bed with her hands still on the woman. Her complexion is pale, and she’s looking exhausted. Bion has been hovering around her like a mother hen. Every minute, his scowl is growing darker until he finally explodes. “Enough. You need to go rest. I can’t have you sick too.”

  Brielle’s eyes opened at his words and are now looking dazedly at him, as if she’s trying to understand what he said. He looks around and then asks Brandr to take her to her room to rest. Brandr immediately enters the infirmary, approaching her, but she’s shaking her head in denial.

  “I can’t leave yet. She’s still not out of danger,” she says.

  “Brandr,” Bion states gruffly, and then nods at her. Brandr leans down and picks her up from her chair. Brielle gasps in surprise and then starts to struggle.

  “Put me down. I’m too heavy for you,” she grumbles, but Brandr just grunts and continues walking.

  “Let’s go, Hellcat. You also need to rest,” Ceric states. I look at him and notice how tired he looks. His hair is rumpled from stroking his hands through it, and he’s still standing there without a shirt. I take his hand and start guiding the way towards our room. When we arrive, he just stands there, an exhausted look to him.

  I place my hands on his jeans and start to pull them down over his hips and then completely off. His boxers are next, and he’s standing before me in his naked glory. “Come on, babe, let me help wash this blood away from your body.” I pull him after me until we are both in the bathroom.

  “Want to have your way with my body, is it?” he teases, but his smile doesn’t reach his eyes.

  Striding towards the shower, I turn it on and push him gently towards it. “Get in. I will be right behind you.” He grunts but does as I say. I hurriedly undress, and then I’m joining him under the warm spray of the water. I take hold of the soap, and then I slide it over his chest gently. I can see slight bruising on his skin and know that by tomorrow, it will be gone, but for now, I’m sure he’s in some pain.

  I gently stroke his skin, making sure that all evidence of blood is gone, and then move on to his legs. As I squat in front of him with the soap, I see that he isn’t immune to my ministrations, as his erection is standing proudly at attention. I grunt as I feel my body betray my good intentions. Taking the soap, I soap him from base to tip and then down between his legs. I hear him groan in pleasure as he throws his head back. I then let the water rinse the soap off before I lean close and kiss the tip lightly.

  “Turn. Let me do your back,” I whisper. His eyes open a fraction, and then he’s turning reluctantly, and I give the same attention to his back as I did to his front. When I’m happy with his body, I move my hands up to his hair. Standing up on tiptoes, my breasts pushing up against his back, I gently stroke my fingers through his hair, hearing him groan in pleasure as he pushes his body back against mine.

  “I want you,” he mumbles as he suddenly turns around and has my legs off the floor and around his hips. “Are you ready for me?” His lips graze my ear. My breath catches in my throat at the anticipation. I nod, but when he doesn’t continue, I realise he’s waiting for my answer.

  “Yes,” I mumble, and feel his hand between our bodies, and then he’s plunging deep into me. We both groan in pleasure as he buries himself inside me. He takes my lips in a deep kiss that leaves me mindless with want as he plunges into me energetically. His thrusts are hard and deep until I don’t know where I start and he finishes.

  Suddenly, he slows. Lifting his head, he looks deep into my eyes. “I love you, Hellcat,” he states with so much emotion in his voice that I feel tears gather in my eyes. “I don’t ever want to go through a situation where I might lose you. You need to be safe. Promise me that you will be careful at all times.” He lowers his head again and drops a light kiss on my lips. “Things are starting to heat up. I need to know that you will be safe at all times.”

  I lift my hand and place it against his cheek; he turns his head slightly and nuzzles it. “I love you, too, with all my heart.” He gently moves in me, and I groan, pleasure shooting through my body. “I never thought I would find someone like you.”

  “You are my world, Hellcat, my inspiration, the reason I’ll fight to my last breath to protect you and the future we will have together.” With that, he starts to move, desperately thrusting into me, his grunts getting louder with each thrust.

  “Give me your blood,” I whisper. His eyes open wide in surprise as he looks deep into my soul.

  “You sure?” he asks hesitantly as his thrusts get more demanding, my nails digging into his back in pleasure.

  “I trust you.” I see understanding dawn as he realizes that I have finally opened up completely to him, and my heart and soul are now his. He brings up his wrist to his mouth and tears at it. Placing it against my lips, he looks at me with concern, but when I lap at his wrist, he groans loudly and loses complete control, thrusting into me over and over again until I feel my body start to tremble in ecstasy, and then I don’t know anything else as he lowers his head and bites on the side of my breast. My release is like a tidal wave that overtakes my thoughts and my senses, leaving me breathless and limp but at peace with the knowledge that this man holding me so tenderly loves me.

  BION 1

  “Do you believe what they did to our bar?” I grumble, “It looks like a darn girly parlour in there.” Jasmine, Nova and Aria are throwing a surprise birthday party for Gabriela today and all though I’m all for it, the surprise of coming back to the compound and finding our bar area turned all girly was a shock. The guys flipped their shit, but as we all want Gabriela to be happy especially now that she’s expecting we going to smile and bear it while at this party.

  “Can you just imagine the ribbing we going to get from the Cape Town chapter.” Caelius mumbles, we’re both making our way back to the bar and the party after freshening up and can already hear the music before we even enter.

  “Bion, Caelius” Tina calls as she walks out of one of the rooms near the bar. Looking over at her I notice that she’s dyed her hair a bright red, “What do you think?” she asks as she lifts her hand and strokes a strand back. As one of our Jezebels Tina has been with us for a couple of years and to be honest I prefer her to Gloria as she has a bit more meat on her bones.

  I can’t think of anything worse than fucking someone and all you’re holding is bones. “Draco will like it.” I state. We all know that Draco has a fondness for red heads, but I don’t think even he will like this much red.

  “It’s pretty” Caelius mutters as he steps around her. I see her face fall when she doesn’t get the reaction she was most probably expecting from us. I lower my head and kiss her forehead, trying to make up for our lack of enthusiasm.

  “Will see you after the party” I say before I follow Caelius, I catch up to him just as he walks into the bar. Nova sends us a smile from where she’s standing, I chuckle when I think about the problems Ceric is having trying to tame her. In my opinion I think she’s the one taming him. I look around to see if he’s already here,
life has become more interesting at the compound since Nova joined us.

  Having Ceric unsure of himself for a while has made our days more exciting, I can feel myself smiling until my eyes connect with a woman that’s standing on the other side of the bar. Instantly I can feel my body react to her sexiness. Fuck me; I haven’t seen a woman as sexy as her in a long, long time. And even though she isn’t wearing anything that would show off her figure, I can see her breasts hinting at their lusciousness from the way the material of her t-shirt moulds her breasts when she moves.

  Looking at the long flowy skirt she has on, all I want to do is place my hands at her ankles and slowly stroke them up her legs until I reach my treasure. What? What the hell am I thinking? I haven’t had this instant attraction to a woman since I was a teenager, maybe not even then. At three hundred and ninety two years old I can’t completely remember how I was when a teenager, but I sure as hell don’t think I’ve ever been as captivated by a woman as I am now.

  Her beautiful silky shoulder length auburn hair calls for my fingers to stroke. I can see her light eyes from here but I can’t tell if they’re blue or green. The feeling of wanting to be near her is overpowering.

  “Who’s that” I ask Caelius as I nod towards the woman that is standing next to Jasmine. I doubt she came with Tor and his men as she doesn’t look like a Jezebel. The thought of this woman being a Jezebel fills me with such anger that I start to take a step towards her before I catch myself.

  “The bird we saved from the Keres” Caelius responds, at his words I can feel myself tense. I didn’t get to see her, because by the time they placed her in the car I had already moved away. I know she might have some kind of gift because the Keres had her locked up at their warehouse in a room by herself by the time we were able to rescue her.

  And then I feel myself pale when I realise what this could mean. Is it possible? I have never had such a strong reaction to any woman like I’m having to her. Could she be my mate?

  “No fucking way?” Caelius states as he looks at me with a raised brow. I know I’m scowling as I nod at him, but I can’t believe that this might be true. For centuries that I’ve dreamed about finding my mate, and then out of the blue I have a woman standing across from me that might be her, and I don’t know what to do.

  “Are you certain?” Caelius asks as he too stares at her.

  “I don’t know, but one thing for sure I’ve never had this reaction to any woman before.” I grumble, “What did you guys say her name is?” I can’t believe she’s been at the compound for two days and I’m only seeing her now.

  “Brielle”

  “Brielle” I repeat feeling the name roll off my tongue. Suddenly she throws her head back and bursts out laughing at something Jasmine says. At the sound of her laugh my dick hardens, shit, this is not good.

  I need to leave here, or I’m going to embarrass myself, but looking around I see some of the brothers looking at her. I know I’m glaring but fuck I can’t help it, the thought of her being touched by anyone else makes me want to lose my shit. I’ve never been a possessive guy, where the hell is this coming from?

  Just then Bjarni walks into the bar holding Gabriela’s hand, my frown disappears temporarily when I hear her squeal in happiness. Bjarni scowls when he notices for the first time the different organza hanging from the ceiling making it look like a girly hangout but he soon forgets about it as Gabriela throws herself at him. I marvel at the happy and caring look on his face, will I be as lucky as my brothers that have found their mates.

  I have never told anyone but my deepest wish is to have a family, a woman that I can love and care for, and children. If Brielle really is my mate and I don’t have much doubt that she is, will she accept me? Hearing a gasp I concentrate once again on what’s going on around me noticing Bjarni and Gabriela making their way towards the food table.

  I spend the night across from her not trusting myself not to touch her if I get closer, I notice when she first sees me and how she tenses, her eyes widening and her lips parting as she takes a deep breath. I know that woman like what they see when they look at me and I have never been more pleased for my looks as I am now. She looks embarrassed when she notices that I caught her staring at me. Her eyes lower to the floor and her hands start to fidget.

  It seems like my woman is flustered at the attention, I can feel myself smile when I imagine the things I want to do to her and how she might react. Suddenly Nova distracts me when she starts to call the woman to the middle of the bar. I see she has placed a chair for Gabriela in the middle of the floor looking over again at my woman I notice she has a guilty look on her face as she looks over at Jasmine.

  Something is up, Jasmine looks just as guilty, and thinking about it so does Aria. The only one that doesn’t seem to know what is going on is Gabriela. Whatever these four are up to isn’t going to be good.

  As soon as the music changes I’m sure my mouth falls open. Not a chance, would they be brave enough to bring a stripper in here? Looking over at my brothers I see they thinking the same thing, and then a guy starts to dance, making his way towards the women.

  My body tenses and I start to make my way towards them when Caelius places his hand on my shoulder. “I’ll get rid of him.” He says before he walks towards them. When the guy rips his shirt open and the women start to squeal in delight my vision starts to tunnel, especially when I see Brielle clap her hands.

  But then Draco and Caelius are escorting the guy out of the bar before Bjarni, Wulf, Brandr and Ceric can get hold of him. The fucker must have a death wish, I hear a yelp bringing me back, and I see Ceric walking out of the bar with Nova over his shoulder.

  Wulf is standing with his hands low on his waste glaring at Jasmine as she looks everywhere except at him. Looking over I see Bjarni glare at Gabriela before he lowers his head and possesses her lips in a blistering kiss that doesn’t let up until they’re both breathing heavily.

  Brandr has Aria sitting on his lap, an arm around her extended waist and the other holding her neck while he kisses her relentlessly, dominating her every thought. I notice Brielle walking hurriedly towards the back of the bar and to what I’m assuming is the room she’s staying in. I watch until she slips into the room and closes the door, I feel my muscles relax and only now do I realise how tense I was with all the men around her. I’m so screwed, I move against the wall bending my knee and resting my foot against it as I try to hide my hardness.

  From where I’m standing I can see the door to her room, I stay in the same position making sure no one goes near it for the rest of the night. Most of the guys are drinking and talking between each other, others have disappeared with Jezebels as Tor brought his women with him knowing that we only have two here at the moment.

  And talking of Jezebels I see a bottle blond making her way towards me, “Hey sugar” she purrs as her hand goes to my chest and she starts to stroke gently as she looks up at me. “What you doing here all by yourself?” she asks.

  “Just chilling” I reply with a smile, maybe Brielle isn’t my mate. I know that if we Elemental’s find our mate we repel all other women, but for now I’m not feeling anything. I look at the Jezebel and grunt, her breasts are way smaller than what Brielle’s look like, and her hips are way too bony for a good pounding. The things I want to do to Brielle when I get my hands on her luscious body make me want to storm into her room.

  “Would you like some company?” she asks as she moves closer to me, her hand lowering to my hardness that is straining against my jeans. She squeezes gently making me groan, and then she’s stepping between my legs and lifting on her tiptoes to kiss me. As soon as I feel her lips on mine my skin starts to prickle as if a thousand needles are poking me, and then my stomach starts to rebel.

  I hurriedly pull away and groan, fuck, the guys weren’t joking when they said there is no way they would be able to fuck any other women besides their mate. I see the confusion on her face as I step away. “Sorry honey, but not tonight.” I grunt,
and then make my way outside.

  Taking in a deep breath, I walk away from the noise and into the woods without any direction in mind, the calmness of nature surrounds me. I can hear the wolves howling close by, but I know that they won’t draw closer. As I come upon a clearing I see Sven before me, I know that he hasn’t heard me as he has his cell to his ear and is talking quietly. Why the hell would he come out here to talk on his cell? Maybe he was taking a walk like me and his phone rang.

  I don’t want to talk to anyone therefore I turn and make my way towards where I can hear the horses. I sit on a boulder a few feet away from them and try to calm my racing heart. Since seeing Brielle that my heart hasn’t quietened. I don’t want to go through the same issues my brothers went through, before bonding with her I need to explain everything to her.

  I want her to be prepared for our bonding and this life that we lead. In the last years that things have become more dangerous with the Keres MC, and I won’t take a chance on her being out there unprotected. They have already captured her once, if we hadn’t rescued her I don’t know what could have happened.

  What I need to figure out is how they know that these women belong to us, and how are they getting our DNA. I have done various tests and I still can’t figure out how they’re matching them to us. Celmund and I have figured out the level of energy each woman radiates but now we need to figure out what the compatibility is between the mates. Maybe now with Brielle, we will get some more answers.

  Since giving up on the life that my parents wanted for me, to become part of the Elemental’s MC that the only family I have known is my brothers. I don’t regret choosing this life, but I miss my blood brother and my parents. My father wanted me to follow in his footsteps in politics as the oldest son, and when I didn’t he disowned me.
