In that instance, Keira knew the Caedmon council had made a decision that would change the course of things forever.
Chapter Fifteen
“You have to stop creeping up on me like that.” Keira smiled, dropped her hairbrush on the sink, and turned around.
Aiden pulled her into his chest. “I wasn’t creeping.” He kissed her softly on the face and lips. “You smell good.”
“They have nice essential bath oils here.” She wrapped her arms around him. “I had a long bath, since you were gone a long time.”
“My Council brothers and I ran together. We hadn’t done that in a long time.”
After what Keira understood was the ceremony to raise the powers from the relics of William Caedmon II and delegate them, the men had not returned. Now she understood why. They had been celebrating.
She pulled back and looked at him. His eyes were different, almost a golden hue with specks of red. “What happened out there?”
“Instead of choosing to observe all the powers, Devin delegated them.” His fingers stroked the back of her neck as he held her gaze firmly. “Do you know what this means?”
“No,” she whispered.
“Everything has changed, Keira,” he said. “I’m stronger now than I ever was before, but what we did last night will come with a price.”
“What is it?”
“The time has come. Arnou has waged war against us. We must shut him down.”
She swallowed, and pressed her forward to his. After breathing in his scent, she could tell that he’d ran wild in the forest. “You will sacrifice everything to save your kind.”
He nodded. “It must be done.”
“Come here.” Keira led him out of the bathroom and into the adjoining sleeping quarters. “I want you to have something.”
“You’ve given me enough.” He took her by the waist. “You are part of my purpose now.”
“There is one more thing that I wish to give you.”
“What is it?”
“You’ve taken my body. Freed my mind. Captured my heart.” She shrugged the thick robe off her shoulders and it fell to the floor about her ankles. “Now I give you my soul.”
He gasped, and his fingers tightened on her waist.
“Complete the bond, Aiden.”
His eyes flashed blood red, and his canines distended. “I’ve waited for this.” He pushed her down on the bed, and came down over her. ‘I’ve waited long enough for you.’ Those last words were projected to her mind.
Her body shivered against him. She could feel the newfound power raging within him. Heated Desire. And Blood Lust.
Keira surrendered her body as he showered kisses across it, drawing a trail down to her sensitive mound. His fingers slid down her pussy then he sucked her clit into his hot mouth. He loved her with his tongue bringing her straight to climax.
Aiden stopped long enough to peel out of his clothing, then he flipped her over so that she was on her hands and knees. He nipped and licked along her back, until he reached her ass. He massaged the globes with her hands, spreading her apart. His tongue lapped at her wet pussy and teased her ass.
“Aiden.” Keira pushed her hips out and he thrust his tongue into her. She wanted it hard and fast. She wanted Aiden. The man. The wolf. She craved release and needed it so desperately. “Take me now.”
He lifted himself high above her and growl. She lowered herself to the bed in a position of submission. Her pussy was slick and he pushed the crown of his dick inside her with minimal effort. He gripped her about the waist firmly and bent over her.
She felt the velvety smooth touch of his tongue against the back of her neck. The slow, soft strokes soothed her creating an icy feeling on the skin. His woodsy scent was stronger than ever before as he panted against her and licked at her sensitive nap. She realized after a moment what he was been doing. He was preparing her for his bite. The mark that would brand her as his.
Canines glided gently across her neck. The head of his dick pulsed at her opening.
“Keira, you are forever mine.” He kissed her nape. “I take you as mate. Best friend. Confidant. Healer. Lover. Wife. Mother of my children.”
“And I take you…”
Aiden entered her fiercely in both places at once. The pain seized her, freezing her to the spot, and her scream caught in her throat. The ache in both areas canceled each other out after a while, but not before a few tears fell down her cheeks. She closed her eyes and a vision flash behind her eyelids.
Keira and her wolf were running across a field of flowers. She was happy. Carefree. There was no fear. She ran as fast as she could, but her wolf caught her. They collapsed onto a patch of grass and rolled around in it. Her heart was filled with love and affection. One moment, Aiden was the wolf and the next he was man. His cerulean blue stare mesmerized her. She loved this man so much…
She was slammed back into reality when Aiden removed his canines and began pounding her from behind. Pushing her hips back, she took him thrust for thrust and gave in the process. A vortex of emotions capsized over her. There was so much of it that it sent her straight into another climax. He joined her at the peak, plunging into her with determination. His body convulsed against her and he roared out in gratification.
Long after they were through and lying in each other’s arm on the brink of a deep slumber, she still felt contentment. She would never want for anything more.
In Aiden, she’d found the man of her dreams.
