I woke up with my head on Eryn's chest, and Charles' large arm around my waist. A tinge of pink flushed my cheeks, as last night's events replayed in my head. I took a deep breath in, trying not to become aroused again. My body was sore all over, the smallest of movements seemed to cause me excruciating pain. I was very aware of what muscles I was using to get up. Even with fast healing mating takes a toll on the body. I shifted my weight off Eryn trying not to wake him. His face was so relaxed and beautiful. The sun hit his porcelain skin just right, giving the appearance of a light glow. His long blonde hair sprawled around him, showing me he hadn't bothered to tie it back up last night. Charles let off small snores, they were quiet, but gruff. His hair was standing in different ways around his head. His brows were furrowed even in his sleep. His face was relaxed and yet still held an air of power. I gently slid out from under his arm and somehow managed to not wake either one.

Nate answered the door, his hair and clothes a bit disheveled. The first few buttons on his shirt were left open, exposing his tanned skin to the world. He eyed me curiously, probably taking in my reddened eyes and tear streaked cheeks. He then looked at Eryn, narrowing his eyes accusatory. "Before you start, it wasn't really his fault." I chuckled, pushing past him and letting myself into his room. "I had a lot of pent up emotions, and he just let me cry." Nate lifted an eyebrow at me as I continued. He still hadn't said anything out loud, but his expression said plenty. "Did I forget to mention that he's my mate too?" I smiled at him, knowing he'd finally speak with that tid bit of news. "Jesus, Rain. I leave you for a day and you go and get another mate?" He ran his fingers through his hair, looking at me exasperated. "Woman, you tire me." He shook his head, almost disapprovingly. "But you still love me ri

Kaitlyn looked me in the eye, still a little confused from what the spirits had told her. I saw her push it to the back of her mind trying to enjoy her time instead."Okay Rain, Truth or Dare? I think we have time for one more round before we must go." She smiled trying to keep the mood light. "Dare this time." The dares seemed to have been easy and I didn't feel like having to reveal anything else right now. "It seems the spirits are feeling naughty." She laughed. "They say to send Charles courage in the form of a sexy picture of yourself." Nate clutched his sides as he bursted laughing. My cheeks turned as red as a pepper. "I don't know how to be sexy." I admitted, never having sent a sexy pic in my life. "I beg to differ." Eryn smiled coyly at me, setting my cheeks further aflame. "I'll help." Kaitlyn said. She got up from her circle. "Nate, give me your shirt." She held out her hand in Nate'

I plopped on the bed, feeling like I was going to burst from all the food I ate. These past few days I hadn't been eating very much and my body seemed to want to make up for it today at dinner. Eryn crawled onto the bed leaning over me, his leg pushing mine open to lay between my thighs. His beautiful dark blue eyes met mine with an intense desire. I knew what he wanted, I could feel it in my mind and through our mate bond. I could feel Heli wanting our mate as well, happy to have him hanging over us. "You're so beautiful, Rain." He whispered as he gently moved my hair from my face. His hand cupped my cheek and rested there. I leaned my face into it, closing my eyes and focusing on the warmth that radiated from his palm. "I can't seem to get enough of you my divine Mel." Every time he said Mel, my heart would beat fiercely against my chest, sending that warmth radiating through me. I could feel our mate sealing further every time he did.

Rain's P.O.V.After Charles' phone call last night, I ran out of my room, letting Larminiel know what was happening. He swore to get some of the black goo to Charles through tree travel, by this morning. After telling Larminiel everything that had happened, I rushed to Clarice's room. I demanded she teach me to project right then and there. She was gracious enough to forgive my maddened outburst and spend all night training me. It was so much harder than I thought. I had to focus on every part of my body, train it to be still. I had to keep myself grounded yet my soul floating. It made no sense to me. Heli had a hard time too, because it wasn't just me that needed to train. It has to be both of us together. Only after Clarice told me to think about how my body feels when I visit Heli, did I start to get it. I projected for just a quick moment, finding myself in that cave again. It was literally for 5 seconds before I snapped right bac
