Chapter 34Damn… I must have been tired because when my eyes finally fluttered open, I realized Ambrosia wasn’t in bed with me still. I sat up and stretched, then climbed out of bed, heading to my closet to find something to wear. I could smell breakfast downstairs and realized I was definitely hungry. I could hear Rosa and Ambrosia chatting from the kitchen while getting dressed. I ran my hand through my hair. That’s going to have to be good enough. I thought, as I walked down the stairs. I mind linked Ramses on my way down. “Brother, have you seen the headlines this morning? Go check them out!” I said. “Oh, we have already been looking. That was a fucking blast and we need to do it next year too!” He howled. “I’m sure that can be arranged. How is my mark looking on Katrina?” I asked. “Oh it’s about halfway gone, we are getting there man!” He said. “Thank the gods. Lets hope this next few weeks goes by quickly and that fucking mark can be gone for good.” I replied. “Any other wo
Chapter 35“A Hybrid?” I questioned. I was interested in hearing the story behind it, or at least how my brother planned to combat the stigma surrounding Hybrids. He looked at me and we locked eyes. “In a sense.” He replied. I was vague and did not answer even one of my questions. “Do explain.” I said. “It would appear that a Reaver who did not grow up within a coven, but did grow up with a Wolf, and who believed that she, herself, was a Wolf… Would have enhanced her Wolf traits. Thus, allowing her to have a mate bond…” He replied.“That is interesting, indeed… Luna, huh?” I asked. “It’s a long story… But yes, she has accepted the Luna position in her pack. It was lacking without one, and their Alpha was set on having her by his side.” Raziel said. “So she’s Luna and High Priestess?” I asked. “She is.” He said. “Incredible.” I replied. I took a seat on a black couch with gold accent pillows. “Ambrosia.” I said, and she took a seat on my lap. “So, about your eyes.” Raziel said, lock
Chapter 36“Pinky promise?” She said, holding out her pinky to me. “What?” I asked. “Pinky promise me that her fate will not become mine.” She said. Humans are so strange, how does a pinky promise make her feel better? Whatever. I thought. “Ok. I pinky promise that her fate will not become yours.” I said, and we locked pinkies. Her heartbeat immediately started to calm down now, as if that little motion really did secure the deal. Humans were so strange with their ways. “Do you feel better now?” I asked. “I do, thank you. Didn’t we have to talk to another brother of yours now?” She asked. “Ah, yes, Raphael. I’m going to mind link him first to let him know we are coming.” Then I mind linked my brother. “Raphael!” I said. “Rowen, are you sick? You never mind link me.” He replied. “Oh come on, I do too… Ok, maybe I don’t. But I have a dilemma and I need your help.” I said. He sighed out loud. Come on over, I'm home.” He said, then he closed the link. “Ok he’s home, you ready?” I ask
Chapter 37“Well, that was interesting… Your brother is…. Interesting.” Ambrosia said. “Isn’t he though? But don’t worry, sharing you with my brothers was only a one time free sample. The only brother I truly share everything with is Ramses. So you’ll get used to seeing him, the other two not so much.” I said. Ambrosia looked at me with a confused look on her face. “Don’t worry, doll. We will get to that point only when you’re ready, of course. No need to panic.” I purred. It seemed to calm her, but I laughed inside. She had no idea what was in store. Ramses and I always shared literally all things, even women. In time she would understand. We spent a little more time with both of my brothers than I anticipated and it was almost sunset by now. There was this really cool place on the beach in Naples that I wanted to show Ambrosia, but I figured she was hungry first, we hadn’t eaten anything since we left. I turned to her and grabbed her hand. “Let’s go get some food!” I said to her
Chapter 38Once I was out of the shower and dressed for bed I called for Ambrosia. She came wandering into my room and climbed into bed with me. She was obviously still thinking about me naked, because the blush still hadn’t left her cheeks. “You should have joined me, you know.” I said. “Oh yea? And why’s that?” She replied with a little sass. “Oh, no reason. But it could have been fun.” I smirked. “Oh I’m sure you had lots of plans if I would have.” She said, while laughing. “Doll, you have no idea.” I replied with a chuckle, which seemed to make the red on her cheeks permanent. I pulled her into my arms, letting her lay her head on my shoulder. Her hand was on my chest tracing the muscles of my chest and abs. Her touch was soothing, calming even. It put ease to my racing mind. I had never noticed it having this type of effect on me before. Could it be something new? My mind went back to our interactions and how often I had her in my lap, playing with her hair, or running my fing
Chapter 39I woke up to Ambrosia moving around in my arms. She popped her head up off my shoulder. “Good morning!” She sang. I just blinked a couple of times. I wasn't even awake yet, how was she this perky already? “Morning, doll.” I grumbled, trying to sit up and wipe the sleep from my eyes. She was already up and bounding around the room. She seemed to be in the best mood ever. “Oh, I'm taking full credit for her good mood. I definitely did that.” I said to Viper with a snicker. “Yes you fuckin did, ha.” Viper replied. I watched as she ran off into her room to change before heading downstairs for whatever reason. I was still sitting on the side of the bed grumbling to myself. Normally I’m good to wake up easily, but today I was not having it. I flopped back down on the bed and closed my eyes. I must have dozed back off because I woke up shortly after, to Ambrosia straddling me with her hands pining mine back to the sides of my head. “Oh, you want to play, do you?” I said, and
Chapter 40“Well… He’s fucking charming. He literally just has to look at me with those big bronze eyes and shoot me a thousand dollar smile and my panties are on the ground.” She said. Amethyst started laughing so hard. “He’s also very rough with sex. Thank god I wasn’t a virgin, he might have killed me the first time… But I will say he definitely has the experience to know what the fuck he’s doing.” She said. I just shook my head. “Wait, wait, wait… So you guys are telling me that I'm the only damn one that hasn’t slept with my Master?” I hissed. They both just looked at me wide eyed. “You haven’t?” Amethyst cackled. “No!” I cried back. “How? You and him slept in each other's bed every single night I lived here…” Amethyst questioned. “Yea, sleeping in each others bed is a lot different than fucking. You can sleep and not fuck.” I said, astonished that neither of them apparently could. Ambrosia raised her eyebrows at me. “But why would you want to do that when the latter is so mu
Chapter 41The meeting seemed to go on for quite a bit of time but it was all things that needed to be discussed. The Others were seeming to be a bigger threat than I originally thought they were, and knowing that I was wearing the amulet made me nervous. Not that anyone else knew, or could possibly find out. But it was just the thought that something so important was entrusted to me, of all people… A Human, with absolutely no power to even fight back and protect it. That was fucking nerve wracking. But as long as I kept my mouth shut about it, and trust me, I wasn’t about to tell a soul, then it would be safe. They would never think to look on me of all people. There were nine of us in this room. Nine people plus the one other Keeper that was still alive to watch over and protect the amulet. To me, that seemed like a small number… I kept forgetting that five out of the nine were Reavers, and two were Witches. Reavers alone had a span of abilities that made it near impossible for
