The Guardian's Bond (Other Kin)

by C. A. Salo

  “That and you’re huge,” Livi breathed.

  Tommy chuckled as he withdrew and thrust in deep.

  The large head of his cock was rubbing every nerve ending inside her warm pussy. When he shifted he rubbed against the sweet spot inside her and Livi screamed with pleasure. Tommy increased his rhythm. She clutched the bed sheets, breath coming in short gasps and moans as she approached the crest of oblivion. “Master, please,” Livi cried.

  Tommy moaned as his balls tightened, drawing closer to his body. “Now love, come for me now!” His head went back as her walls tightened around him, and she let out a cry of ecstasy.

  Livi groaned as his cock jerked. Opening her eyes, she watched as he came inside her. He held still for a moment before he thrust into her again, lengthening her pleasure.

  Tommy shook as he withdrew and fell to her side breathing heavily. “You’re not in heat.”

  “Were you hoping I was?”

  “Not right now.” Moving his arm around her, he brought her to lie on his chest. “We’re just getting used to us. Besides, we still have Dragon Hunters to deal with.”

  Livi wrapped her arm around his torso, her ear pressed against his chest, and drifted off.

  Livi glanced sideways at Tommy as her Dad stormed his office, pacing back and forth venting about the idea Tommy and she had brought to him and Galen.

  “I’m not having it, there’s no way in hell I’m sending you off Alston grounds to do this, Olivia. You’re out of your mind.” Drake took a deep breath as he turned. “The both of you. How in the Ancients name would you even think I’d go along with something like this, Tommy? Has mating with her made you lose every ounce of logic?”

  “No sir,” Tommy answered. “But if you look at her plan, it does make sense—kind of—and I’m not letting her go out there by herself, not now and not with anyone else.”

  “Dad, when I go before council tonight I will tell them what I intend to do,” Livi stated, holding her ground when Drake’s gaze whipped to hers.

  Drake snorted. “I will fight them tooth and nail this time, Olivia, do not push me.”

  Livi lowered her head, as did Tommy, out of respect for his authority. They were about to lift them when Galen stepped forward.

  “Livi, Tommy, why don’t you leave us to discuss this and let you all settle down. We’ll see you both at council tonight.”

  Livi lowered her head a bit more to acknowledge Galen and his words as both Tommy and she took a step back before turning and heading for the door. Neither said anything until they were outside on the front steps of the manor. “Damn, that didn’t go the way I thought. Dad is totally against this.”

  “Well what did you think, Livi? He’s your dad and he doesn’t want to see you hurt.”

  Livi sighed. “I know, but what else are we going to do? I’m the only one who knows how these Hunters work. You can’t trust them, Tommy, and when they come next it will be with more than one back-up because they’ve already lost two men. We have to know what they do and fast, and right now my plan is the only way to make it happen without sending in an Alston war party.”

  * * * *

  Livi lowered her head, bowing to the Elder Council. Taking a step back when Tommy nudged her hand, she turned heading for the door. She dared not breathe for fear of them changing their mind, and from fear of the horrendous scowl on her father’s face. He was going to do everything possible to change their minds. Her lungs enlarged with a breath the moment the doors shut behind them. “Holy crap, that was…”

  “Scary,” Tommy said.

  “Yes. I don’t think I’ve ever seen my Dad so…”

  “Pissed.”

  Livi met his gaze. “Are you okay with this? I mean I know you’ve trained, but are you okay with going outside Alston to do what we said?”

  Tommy cupped the sides of her face within his hands, a smile tugging his lips. “I’m fine. I have been outside of Alston you know.”

  “I know, and I know we’ll still be on Grandfather Dragon’s territory, but…”

  Tommy leaned in kissing her gently. “I have contacts on the outside. We won’t be as alone as you’ve been while you’ve been out gallivanting around the world.”

  Livi moved her head back. “I have not been gallivanting.”

  “And I haven’t been sitting here twiddling my thumbs.” Turning her away from him, he slapped her on the ass hard. “Now go get changed.” Tommy smiled at her as she headed down to the women’s area.

  “You alright with this?” Peter asked.

  Tommy kept his gaze on Livi until she disappeared. “Yes. And no I don’t want you for back-up. I need you here to watch over Mari Beven.”

  “She’s surrounded by Beven security, besides being a Dragon shifter and half Ancient. I’d rather have your back.”

  Tommy’s gaze narrowed as he met Peter’s. “You’ve seen how fast they can take her down. You’re the highest ranking security officer after me. I’d rather have you here to keep an eye on the Dragon Hunters and Mari Beven. If another sneaks onto Alston, or the attack comes, Dad, Lord Drake, Lord Rhys and all eligible high ranking warriors will be called in and will be busy defending. Livi loves Mari. If anything happened to her or her baby, Livi would never forgive herself. I cannot have my mate lose another person she loves. It hit her hard when Sophia Roven died, I will not have her going through such sadness again,” he said as they headed toward the men’s changing chambers.

  “Remember Tommy, it could be a trap,” Galen said.

  “I know, Dad, and we’re prepared for one,” Tommy replied, meeting his Dad’s gaze as Galen’s hand rested on his shoulder. “We’re not pups anymore; we’re grown warriors who can take care of ourselves.”

  “Olivia will still be on Grandfather Dragon’s land, so you need to keep an eye on her if you’re threatened. I talked with Mari Beven about this, so listen closely. You are bonded to each other. If there is an immediate threat to your life, Olivia can draw upon her Dragon powers. From what Mari says, it can be devastating to those around, and I don’t need to tell you, do not draw undo attention to Other Kin.”

  Tommy smiled. “I’ll try not to put myself into a life threatening situation.”

  “I’m serious.”

  “Me too, have you seen Livi when she’s pissed? Pissed and emotionally compromised—thank you, but no.”

  “Hey, you ready?” Livi called out. “Hey Galen, don’t worry, I’ll watch his butt for you.” She smiled.

  “I’m sure, Olivia, just be careful and don’t forget to report in.”

  “I know, Dad. Oh and I reassigned Peter,” Tommy said as he took Livi’s hand and headed for his truck.

  “I know he told me,” Galen said.

  Opening the door, Tommy helped Livi in before shutting it and walking around to the driver’s side. “Ready?” he asked glancing over at her has he turned the key.

  “Yep.”

  * * * *

  Tommy smiled as Livi glanced around the small cottage. “It’s clean.”

  “Yeah, but small.”

  “How big do you want it? We’re here for the weekend, to get away from your parents. At least it has a king size bed,” he chuckled, knowing everything they said was being recorded by the Dragon Hunters. After making sure no video equipment existed, and only audio, he laid down on the bed, his head on a stack of pillows, motioning to her with his hand. “Come here, baby.” Their cover was as a couple of lovers from Alston just getting away for the weekend. On a Dragon Hunter camp ground. Everyone in Alston knew they were here. Alston’s security forces were very adept at keeping track of all enemies in the vicinity. Although the Dragon Hunters had no clue, Alston’s inhabitants are all Other Kin. They never had a problem with them until about twenty years ago when the Darkness attacked Alston going after Mari Beven, and she went full Dragon on him to save her mate, the Coven Leader of the Vampires on Alston. The sound barrier that encompasses Alston couldn’t keep out
all of the fighting noises, especially Mari’s Dragon roar.

  “I want to go explore.”

  “I want you naked and in this bed.”

  “Really?” Livi smiled as she slowly started lifting her shirt.

  “Nice and slow baby, strip for me,” he said, his voice husky

  Livi smiled when his hand went down, pressing against the top of his jeans. “Are you hard for me?” She giggled when he groaned. “Take him out, Tommy, and play with him while I strip for you.”

  “You just want to make it hard for me, don’t you?”

  “No, I want to make him harder for me.”

  Tommy’s eyes followed her as she crossed her arms in front of her chest and lifted her t-shirt off inch by agonizingly slow inch. “Why is it we have to worry about your parents? You’re twenty-eight. I’m thirty with a decent job. I mean how much safer can you get than being with a cop?”

  “I don’t know baby, you know how they are. I’m daddy’s little girl and I always will be. You just have to win him over, Tommy, show him how much you love me.” She smiled as she tossed her t-shirt at his head.

  “Yeah, win him over. That’s not as easy as it sounds, darling.”

  “Well, maybe if you hadn’t flirted with Ms. Tourist Attraction, I wouldn’t have gotten pissed at you.”

  Tommy sighed as he wiggled his brows. “I explained that to you. I wasn’t flirting. I have to be nice to people you know, I’m a cop. I have to talk to people and answer questions.”

  “Yeah, yeah.”

  Tommy palmed his cock when she turned, taking her jeans down slowly over her ass. “You’re not wearing panties,” he hooted.

  “I told you I hate them.”

  “For Christ’s sake woman, get over here and suck my cock.”

  Livi smiled as she stripped her bra before strutting over. With a knee on the mattress, she kept his gaze as her mouth lowered, slowly circling his head with her tongue before sliding it down his shaft. Licking around the base, her hand gently cupped his low hanging balls. Livi loved the moan that came from him as she moved back up, taking him slowly into her mouth.

  Tommy’s hand went to the back of her head, his eyes narrowing when hers shimmered, appearing translucent for a moment. “Livi,” he groaned, getting ready to question her when she sucked him all the way into her throat. “God, baby.” His eyes rolled and his head fell back with a groan of pleasure.

  Livi sucked with delight as he slowly pumped in and out of her mouth.

  “Enough!” Taking her by the arms he helped her straddle his waist. His hand lowering between her thighs, his cock twitched with excitement from the wetness of her pussy and her moan of pleasure. “You’re mine, Livi.”

  “Yes.”

  “Fuck me,” he growled.

  Grabbing his cock, Livi moved the head around her wet opening, sighing when she rubbed it against her clit. Slowly she settled herself onto his engorged dick. Her eyes met his as she seated herself completely. “Oh God,” she breathed. Numbing tingles travelled from her brain, all over her body.

  “You feel so good, baby,” Tommy groaned, his hands going to her hips. He thrust up, impaling her. Livi’s gasp of pleasure thrilled him. Lifting his hand to the side of her face, he cupped her cheek. “Are you alright?”

  “Yes, I’m enjoying how good you feel inside me,” she breathed.

  Tommy arched up, her groan low and long.

  Livi shuddered in arousal as she started to move, gripping his shoulders, and came down hard.

  “Oh yeah, that’s it, fuck me baby.”

  Livi moved quickly, riding him hard and taking him deep. His cock seemed to swell as he pounded into her with wild abandon. Her lips parted as the firestorm within her sped up, and she rammed herself onto Tommy’s cock as she screamed his name with her release.

  Tommy grabbed her hips, forcing her down harder and deeper, thrusting into her to his balls as he came hard.

  Livi lay exhausted within Tommy’s arms, her body still quivering as he tossed the covers over them. Kissing his neck, she loved the salty taste of his skin. His hand rested on the small of her back as their breathing evened out and she drifted to sleep.

  * * * *

  Later on that night, Tommy chuckled as he ran down the worn path. “Come on, Livi.”

  “Where are we going?”

  “To the lake.”

  “I didn’t bring my swimsuit.”

  Meeting her gaze over his shoulder, he grinned. “I know.”

  Livi laughed. “Are you trying to get me to go skinny dipping, Tommy Moilanin?”

  “Damn right.” Stopping in front of the lake he tossed his t-shirt to the ground. “Come on, baby, it’s midnight. No one’s going to see you.” Tommy knew from his contact on the campground that the Dragon Hunters were going to try to snag Livi and him if they could. Therefore, they decided to take a midnight swim. Dropping his jeans, he ran down the dock, jumping in the water. Coming up he shook his head and the water from his eyes. “Wooooo, come on, baby, it’s nice and cold.”

  “You have a nice ass there. All I saw was you streaking for the water,” she laughed, dropping her shorts. She tossed them by his jeans on the sand and stuck her toe in the water, shivering.

  “Come on, honey, it’s not that cold.”

  “Don’t you dare splash me, Tommy!”

  “Just jump in, babe.”

  Livi met his gaze with a smile as she backed up and ran at him.

  Tommy grabbed her as she surfaced, planting a playful kiss on her lips. “That’s my woman,” he chuckled as he drew her closer, her wet skin sliding against him as he brought them chest to chest. “Gods, honey, you’re making me horny,” he whispered.

  “I know the feeling.”

  “Do you hear them?” he whispered as he nibbled her ear lobe.

  “Yes, there are three of them spread out.”

  “How are we going to handle this?”

  “Oh, you mean now that you have me naked in the water with three Hunters watching us?” Grinning she slipped down, took a large breath and went under.

  “Holy shit!” he yelled, grabbing the edge of the dock as she took his cock in her mouth. He started out chuckling then it turned to a moan. He’d never received a blow job in the water like this, but damn it felt great. When her mouth came away from him, he lifted her up by the arms. “Christ, babe, what are you trying to do to me?”

  Livi laughed as she headed toward shore. “Come and find out, hot stuff.”

  Tommy had just landed on Livi, laughing with her, when a male voice came out of the darkness.

  “You need to come with us.”

  Livi screamed for good measure as Tommy lifted his head. “Who the hell are you?” he asked.

  “Security.”

  “Sorry man, we’ll go back to the cabin.”

  “You both need to come with us.”

  “For what reason?” Tommy asked as he reached over and grabbed his t-shirt handing it to Livi.

  “We need to talk with you.”

  Tommy stood, grabbing his jeans. “Like I said, sorry about this, it’s the first time we’ve been away in a while and didn’t think anyone would be down here at this time of night.” Stepping into his jeans quickly, he glanced down as Livi shimmied her shorts on.

  “Yeah, no shit. All you two do is fuck,” he snorted.

  “That’s rude,” Livi said as she stood next to Tommy.

  “No, bitch, that’s truth.”

  “Hey, watch your mouth,” Tommy snapped. Taking a step forward he went down to one knee when something hard hit him from behind.

  “Tommy!” Livi screamed as she went down, putting her arm around his shoulders. “He’s a cop, you idiot, you can’t just go hitting people!” Livi screamed again when she was grabbed from behind. She turned swinging, only to have her arm jerked back behind her. Livi cried out as she rolled her eyes. They both had to subject themselves to this abuse from these Hunters in order to find out what was going on—that included acting like hum
ans. “Tommy!”

  Tommy glanced up as they slapped a cloth over her mouth. Figuring it was something to put her out, he let his head hang as two men grabbed his arms, dragging him away.

  * * * *

  Livi groaned as her eyes fluttered, gasping when water hit her out of nowhere.

  “Leave her alone!” Tommy yelled.

  “Where’s the Dragon?” A male voice yelled.

  Tommy’s eyes narrowed as Livi’s head rolled to the side. “You are fucking crazy man. Dragons? Are you serious?”

  “She was the last known target of our Hunter and now we can’t contact him.”

  Livi’s head jerked back when he slapped her across the face. “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

  “You are the last known target Barrett was supposed to take out and bring to us. What did you do with him?”

  Tommy growled when her head went back again from a hit. “Do you know how many laws you’re breaking on top of kidnapping? I’m a fucking Sheriff’s deputy from Alston. Stop hitting her!”

  “Oh we know who you are, Deputy Moilanin, and we also know that your little sweetheart here has something to do with the disappearance of Barrett Jameson.”

  “You want to know where that fucking loser is? He took off like a bat out of hell after I found him beating the shit out of her and attempting to rape her in the woods! Now let us go!” Tommy struggled against his bonds. He knew he could break them with his Lyken strength, but they were here for a reason.

  “Barrett said she has Dragon blood in her, that she exhibited the signs from our charms.”

  “Man, you have fucking lost it.” Tommy growled as another man entered the room. Their heads were bent together in discussion before they both left. “Livi, are you alright?”

  “Yeah, just a few more bruises to go with my collection.”
