  He is the son of a Fate.

  “You- you can’t be serious right now.” I say to him.

  “Yes, I am the product of the forbidden love of a sister of The Fates and The Demon King.” Jacin says to me.

  And I just fucking laugh. Like full on belly erupting laugh. Because holy fuck balls. No wonder nobody wanted to tell me shit about who he was. So I just laugh, while Jacin watches me in stunned silence. Clearly my reaction was not the one he was expecting.

  “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” I say to him as I try to get my laughter under control. “I’m just wanting to make sure I follow. I’m mated to the love child of a fate and a demon king, whose mother is now upset with you because you killed your father, even though she allocated you this fate and she holds the prophecy. Correct? Yes?”

  “In summary, yes, you are right.”

  “Right.” I say to him and then I laugh. I laugh so fucking hard, my stomach gets sore and I’m no longer laughing because I thought he was joking with me. I’m going insane. It’s not even funny. But I can’t stop, not even when the tears start forming in my eyes, not even when Jacin pulls me towards him to comfort me. Not even when he kisses my forehead.

  My hysterics turn into hiccups and then into silent sobs. No wonder they wouldn’t tell me.

  Jacin is basically a god. The son of a fate, the product of a demon king. And I’m his mate. No wonder they were so concerned with my abilities and power. How was I to keep up with Jacin.

  “You are a god.” I whisper out into his chest.

  “Yes.” He simply states and I nod my head into his chest in response.

  “And we are mated?” I ask him, even though I already know the answer to it.

  “You are mine Natalie.” Jacin whispers to me. “I am nothing without you. I’ve spent my entire life looking for you, craving you. There is no me, without you.” He continues to whisper into my hair and places soft kisses on my hair as he whispers.

  “Sleep Little One, you need the rest. We leave for The Fates tomorrow.” Jacin whispers and pulls me into his body and on instinct, my body moulds into his and I dip my head between his arm and chest and allow sleep to take me.

  Chapter Thirty-Two

  “Whisper in my ear, that I’m a good girl.” -Natalie

  ~Jacin~

  Natalie passed out hours ago in my arms. Once she calmed down from the bomb I just dropped onto her lap. I just hope she is strong enough to survive this. She has to be though. The Fates themselves chose her to be. But I’ve been away from her for too long. I’ve had her so many times over the last few days and I still haven’t gotten enough of her.

  I want more.

  I let her leave the bed only for a few moments and then I want her back again and I want her all over again. This mate business is going to drive me insane; he is driving me insane. He lost her and now he wants to keep claiming her. I understand. I want to claim her just as much.

  I run my fingers over her naked flesh. The covers are bundled around us, but even that is too much separation for me. I want to light the fucking sheets on fire and fuck her in the flames as the house burns to the ground.

  Its poison.

  It volatile.

  It’s everything they said it would be. When I should have run towards her, I ran away. Well I tried to. I wanted her to have everything, anything her heart desired. And it’s clear, what her heart desires, is me. I will never leave her side again.

  I press my kiss into her skin. The warmth of her skin melts my kiss as I move down her body.

  Want.

  Need.

  Over and fucking over. It’s never enough.

  The Fates have a sense of humour, I give them that. Such a small woman and she holds the worlds in her hands. I wonder if she even knows it.

  My kiss finds her base and I feel her arch her body into it. I kiss her across her ass slowly, moving towards the spot my mouth hungers for.

  “Jacin.” Natalie murmurs out, her voice is still sleepy.

  “I find you irresistible, Little One. My cock is constantly hard when you are around.” I whisper into her ass and small shivers rack her tiny body.

  I push her onto her stomach and she gladly goes without resistance. I run my fingers down her back, down her spine and she arches into my touch. The sheets have bunched around her ass, covering her from my view. My hands come alight with fire, along with the sheet that hides her from me.

  Its poison.

  Its fucking madness.

  Everything around us can burn and fall to the ground. But I assure you, we will be the last standing.

  Heat licks my skin, as my flames burn hot. And the sheet comes alight faster than ever. I watch as Natalie looks back and then tries to jump away from my flames, but I’m faster. I’m on her thighs, holding her down before she can even move an inch.

  “Get off Jacin, fuck.” Natalie screams as she tries again to move from the flames that have now moved to the rest of the sheet.

  “Never hide from me, Little One. I want to see all of you. Always.” I murmur out to her as I slowly dust the ashes from her beautiful ass.

  “You are fucking mad. That could have seriously hurt me.” She grumbles out once she realises the flames have moved on.

  “Did you feel anything but warmth? Did the lick of the flame touch your beautiful skin?” I ask her, as I continue to dust the ash from her skin.

  She thinks on it a moment and while she does, I lean down to kiss her ass cheeks. One and then the other.

  “Well no. It didn’t.” She replies to my question honestly.

  “My flames will never hurt you; they will burn everything around you. But never injure a single hair on your head.” I say to her and I start to kiss her down her one thigh and then back up the other.

  She lifts her ass, giving me more access to her soft skin. My tongue snakes out as I get closer to her pussy, licking the soft skin beneath her cheeks. Her smell. It’s a fucking need. My body feels as if it can’t survive without the touch of her skin or the smell of her arousal.

  If I could keep her there, in a constant state of need, I’m a lucky man. My hands caress her skin as my tongue tastes. My grip on her tightens, her soft skin perfectly fits in my hands as I squeeze her ass. My tongue continues to taste, until it finds home.

  “Jacin, Jacin, please.” Natalie begs as she thrusts her ass further into my grip.

  “What do you want, Little One?” I ask her, as I continue to rub her cheeks, parting them ever so slightly. God the things I want to do to this woman. No wonder my place belongs in hell.

  “I- I just want you.” She answers me as her head falls forward into the bed, I see her hand flex and regrip the bed as my hands explore her body.

  “What do you want me to do to you, Little One?” I ask her, I want her to tell me her deepest darkest fantasies. And fuck if I won’t make them come true for her.

  “I -I, I can’t.” She moans out. I lift my hand from her one cheek and slam it back down onto her cheek, spanking her tight ass. She will answer me.

  “Hey!” Natalie shrieks out and tries to buck me off her. I laugh at her, I don’t move. I hold her body down and I lift my hand once more and land it home on her cheek again.

  And fuck if they don’t start to turn my favourite shade of red.

  “That wasn’t an answer, what do you want me to do to you?” I say to her as I lean over her body and rub her spanked cheek. A silent warning to answer me or she will get spanked again.

  “You know what I want, I want you to fuck me.” She says out and arches her back, thrusting her ass into my hard cock.

  “Hmm, I know you want to be fucked. But how Little One?” I ask her.

  She hesitates.

  My other hand leaves her body and before she can even think of what I’m going to do next, my palm lands on her other cheek. Making them match beautifully.

  “Okay, okay. I want you to fuck me hard, fast. I- I want you to fuck me, everywhere.” She admits, everywhere coming out barely over
a whisper.

  “Little One, you will soon learn to ask me for what you want.” I whisper to her as my fingers find her pussy and I thrust two fingers inside her.

  She moans. Sweat fucking pleasure.

  I move with her body, my fingers plunging in and out of her body. She tries to move, and I push her down with my other hand, her stomach coming flush with the bed. I hold her in place as she takes my fingers wantonly. I remove them before she comes, just as she was about to fall over the edge.

  Sweet fucking torture.

  “Oh, Little One, by the end of the night, every hole in your body will be fucked. That I promise you. But now.” I say to her as I part her cheeks, her pussy is wet and dripping. My tongue wants a taste. Later, instead I line my cock up at her entrance. “Come for me first.” I groan out as I slam into her pussy, along with my magic. And her screams of pleasure make me fuck her that much harder.

  ~ ~ ~

  “There is something we need to talk about, Little One.” I say to her a little over a whisper. I never thought I would be about to have this conversation with her, not now anyways. “But I don’t know how you will take this conversation. It’s not like we ever talked about it.”

  “What is it?” She says to me and I feel the hairs on the back of her arms stand at the ready. She has absolutely no idea what could possibly have me so serious. She doesn’t know. She has no clue. They never told her. “It can’t be as much of a bomb you dropped on me only hours ago.” She jokes with me and fuck if I don’t want it to be so.

  “The last time I was with you, do you remember any of it? Any small detail.” I ask her and I watch as she thinks back to the last time we were together.

  “I remember being with your beast. You said he wanted me, and you allowed him control, which you lost.” Natalie tells me and she couldn’t be more accurate with that statement, I lost control. I have never lost it, but with her beneath me, her pull, I did. And he fucking did it.

  “I ensured she would always be ours, I made sure of it.” He whispers in the back of my mind. Like I need his fucking confirmation now. Fucker.

  “I will deal with you later.” I bite out in my head and I see Natalie tracking the silent conversation I’m having with myself. Thank fuck she can’t hear my thoughts.

  “There is something about that night we need to discuss. Something happened that night and I honestly don’t know how you will take it.”

  “I don’t understand. What happened?” She asks me, the strain in her voice is obvious.

  “When he took over, when you blacked out, he did something.” I start to tell her.

  “Like? What?” Natalie says to me, as concern laces her words.

  Before I can answer her, the door to the room slams open and in walks Hades. I can’t help but smile as Natalie rips me from her side and pulls me down on top of her. No one gets to see her, no one but me.

  “We’ve left you to wet your dick enough. We need to talk. Now.” Hades says as he walks in and takes in Natalie’s naked form that is barely covered by my body.

  “What the hell, Hades. You could at least knock!” Natalie barks out at him as she grips my body and pulls me more onto her to hide her nakedness. “You lot can wait, outside!” She says as she points to the door.

  “Oh, Little Lady it’s nothing I haven’t seen before.” Hades says but his eyes still move over her half-covered body.

  “You haven’t seen mine, now out.” Natalie shouts in reply and I need to hold back a laugh. She clearly doesn’t know Hades like I do. Even though, having another man see her naked was never in the books. Hades wouldn’t touch her. Not like that anyways.

  “No, but I did lick you, you tasted fucking delicious by the way.” Hades teases her. And my hackles start to rise. I need to speak to him about that. Who the fuck gave him permission to do something like that!

  “A clever man would not remind me of such things.” I growl out in response to him.

  “And one day you will thank the fuck out of me for doing it.” He replies and crosses his arms over his body in a challenge. My eyes lock with his and his sick grin starts to form on his face. He knows I won’t back down from a fight, I will rip his limbs from his fucking body if I must. It’s all a game of who will get to who first. Albert better have his stitching kit ready.

  “Doing what?” Natalie asks me,

  “Nothing!” Both me and Hades shout in reply, our eyes haven’t left each-others. And it’s fucking game on then.

  “Now Jacin.” Hades demands as he turns to leave.

  “Yeah fuck fine, I’ll be there now.” I say to him as I turn to look at Natalie, whose fingers are still digging into my skin from where she was holding me.

  I kiss her lips slowly. Her attention snaps to mine as she starts to kiss me back and I have to pull away from her or I’ll never leave the bed again.

  “We will finish what we started later but promise me that you will behave while I’m gone.”

  “Hey what is that supposed to mean!” Natalie says as she tries to punch me in the arm. But the sheets have her wrapped up nicely and my cock is placed between her legs, she isn’t moving anywhere, anytime fast.

  “You don’t follow orders well, Little One. Promise me, no devising plans to take down the world that challenges us. We can’t do anything about Lucifer. It will upset the balance. Lucifer needs to reign until his heir takes over.” I say to her and I see the anger that flashes through her eyes. “It’s all about the balance Natalie, one day you will understand, one day I will explain everything you need to know until you understand. But right now, they are waiting for me. Please behave.” I say to her as I kiss her swollen lips.

  “No devising plans to take down Lucifer. I promise.” Natalie promises as I break the kiss.

  “Good.” I whisper out to her and kiss her lips once more.

  “Hurry back.” She says to me and teases me by showing me her bare legs.

  I groan as I materialize clothes on my way out of the door. I stop once I’m at the doorway and look back at her. She is beautiful and she is all mine. And I don’t understand the sudden dread I have at the fact I’m leaving her there, in my bed. I watch as she twirls her long hair between her fingers and closes her eyes once more. Hopefully she doesn’t leave the bed until I return.

  ~ ~ ~

  “What is it that you need to pull me out of bed for?” I ask the group of men as I walk into my office. “I’m sure Hell could wait a few more days.” I grumble out and walk over to my bar.

  “We’ve let you have your fun with her for three days, isn’t that enough.” Bishop asks me.

  “Fucking forever wouldn’t be enough.” I reply and down my drink.

  “Well you can’t spend forever in there, so it’s time to come out and get the fuck up to date on the shit you missed.”

  “Fine, update me then.” I say to Bishop and take a seat next to Mason, who is awfully fucking quiet.

  “First off, Natalie made quite an impression with your family. Let’s just say you won’t be having any family dinners with them, since she killed Alexander and Killian.” Bishop says to me.

  “Too late now to bring them back, what’s next.” I say. I couldn’t care less. My entire family lives here like royalty, when in fact they are a bunch of brown noses, looking to keep their so-called wealth and status intact.

  “That’s how I thought you would feel. Eve is dead by her hand as well.” Bishop says to me.

  “She told me. Next.”

  “As I thought she would.” Bishop says and Hades laughs at the news of Eve, I’m sure most of us would laugh. She was a pain in my side for years, I just couldn’t kill her without reason.

  “Look I don’t know how to tell you this next bit of news, so I’m just going to lay it out straight for you. Albert is dead.”

  At first, I’m not sure which Albert he is speaking of. But I take in the men that surround me and I know Bishops Healer is dead.

  “What? How?” I ask him.

  “He gave h
is life for yours.” Mason finally speaks up and I feel the colour drain from my face.

  I sit silently for a while, I’m not sure what to say. We live forever and to kill us takes a great deal of effort. We don’t lose one close to us often. I feel the sadness creeping into my soul, and I notice too that the men that surround me carry a burden of sadness with them.

  “Why?” Is all I can finally manage to ask.

  “He knew it was coming. He gave up his immortality for it. He was told by The Fates themselves that this would one day happen, and he gladly gave up his immortality.”

  “I heard him speaking to me, I thought I was just dreaming, but I guess not.”

  “Fuck, Fuck.” Weyland comes barging into my office, shouting.

  We all stand and take him in. He looks as if he has been running. He is out of breath as he scans the room he just barged into. His eyes don’t take us in, he looks around us. Like he is looking for someone other than us.

  “Fuck!” He shouts again and turns to leave.

  “Weyland!” I command and he turns back to me. “What the fuck is the matter?” Sudden dread fills my body. I know what is about to come before he even says it.

  “She is gone.” He says to me.

  “What the fuck do you mean she is gone? Where are her five?” I question him as I move forward without thinking on it. My hands feel sweaty and I want to fucking kill Weyland, but the better person in me knows it wasn’t his fault. He isn’t charged with watching her. They are.

  “I lost communication with them and I couldn’t track them. I went to check on Natalie, they are always with her and she too was gone. And then, and then- fuck it never mind that. I questioned the staff. They never saw her leave the room, after she called in her five.” Weyland explains and I feel the blood boiling within my skin.

  “For fuck sakes, can she just follow fucking orders, for fucking once.” I shout out, the chair next to me goes flying through the air and shatters against the wall as my power leaks from my body. “She wanted to go after Lucifer. And I forbid it and now she most likely is going to get fucking killed.”
