I remember the shock of electricity that ran up my arm when Trent touched me and the skip of my heart at his voice. He is one of the most beautiful men I've ever seen. Dark brown hair with blonde highlights from spending a lot of time in the sun. His amber eyes were filled with mischief like he doesn't take much seriously. I didn't get the chance to explore him further since Ash interrupted my perusal.
When I heard the old name come from the other man, I panicked. I knew immediately he was my Ash, but I didn't know how to tell him. I freaked out at that moment. I was so thankful to Trent for taking the conversation back. I know he saw the look on my face, but I was relieved when he didn't ask questions. I'll just have to be more careful when I'm in town. It's a big town with lots of tourists so I doubt I'll see him again. That thought helps me relax.
I know dream walking isn't a normal trait of supes. I mean, I've heard tales of witches and spells that allow dream walking or memory walking as they call it, but not being able to create dreams. To change dreams. Ash is beyond what I ever imagined he would grow up to be. His black hair and baby blue eyes were just as I remembered them, but he grew into a wonderfully beautiful man. I noticed hints of tattoos peeking below his sleeves and I would have given anything to trace and see them all.
Since parting the little sitting area with Maddie and Kalan, I have felt this pressure in my chest like someone is lightly sitting on it. Every once in a while, I feel an almost tug. What is that? I don't quite know but it feels as if those two men are important. Yes, I can admit that I was lusting after both Ash and Trent, but it felt like more, like they were connected to me in some way.
Right on the tail of this feeling is one of guilt. I'm with Kalan and I truly love him, so I shouldn't be lusting after anyone else. But I already know there's no future with us so I'll bide my time, love him the best way I can, and then worry about anything else when our time together comes to an end. These feelings war within me as I toss and turn in my bed, unable to find enough peace to sleep. I'm afraid of what my dreams will bring me.
A soft knock on my door has me turning over. The door opens revealing a sexy looking Kalan. His green eyes lock onto me and I feel myself drowning in them. He's so sexy wearing low slung silk pajama bottoms that show off that delicious v below his abs. I want to lick every one of them. His dirty blonde hair is tousled like he's run his hands through it a dozen times. He seems a little nervous. I'm not sure why.
Kalan is 10 years my senior and from what I've heard over the years, pretty well experienced so it makes no sense that he's scared to enter my room. Does he think I'd turn him away? Yeah, we haven't talked about the future and I love him, but I've never told him and he's never made me any promises.
I push the covers back and throw my legs over the side of the bed. Kalan's eyes drop to my legs and it's then I remember I'm only in a tank and my panties. As his eyes travel up my body, I feel the heat rising in my core. "By the creator, you are beautiful", I hear him say reverently. A blush creeps up my neck and into my cheeks as I make my way over to him.
I lean up on my tiptoes and press my lips softly to his. As soon as our lips meet it's as if a dam broke. He immediately takes over, the kiss turning demanding. One of his hands curls into the hair on the back of my head while the other makes its way down to just above my ass. All thoughts are gone. The only thing that exists at this moment is his mouth on mine. I can't think of anything other than his touch. I gasp. He takes the opportunity to insert his tongue into my mouth. This kiss is so different from the others we've shared. I can't help but wonder what it would be like to have that mouth between my thighs.
He breaks the kiss giving me time to catch my breath. His eyes have darkened from that sea green to almost emerald. I go to pull away to walk toward the bed. Kalan has other ideas though. He grabs my thighs and lifts. I wrap my legs around his waist. I can feel how hard he is and can't help but to grind my center down on him. A growl leaves his mouth, but he doesn't say anything as he takes me over and throws me down on the bed. A small giggle leaves my lips as he follows down after me finding my mouth again. He nestles between my legs and I moan. His hands are everywhere, and I find I'd rather it be his lips. He raises up on his knees and grabs the hem of my tiny tank.
"Let me see you baby.", he says huskily.
I raise up a little and help him pull the tank over my head. He leans back perusing me like a present he just unwrapped. My nipples pebble under his gaze and he leans forward and takes one into his mouth. His tongue laves at the pebbled nipple and then I feel his teeth graze against it. He bites down on the underside of my breast eliciting another moan from my mouth.
I'm at a loss for words with the feelings overwhelming me. Kalan's hand makes its way down my body to my covered pussy.
He cups it and a hiss leaves his mouth. "You're so hot and already so wet for me. I can feel your wetness through the fabric. Tell me what you want Reegan."
My name is like a prayer on his lips. All of a sudden, I become shy. How do I tell this gorgeous man that I want him to taste me? I just shake my head. "Tell me, love. Do you want me to eat you? Fill you so full you'll be feeling me inside you for days?", he asks.
"Yes", is the only word I can form. I look into Kalan's eyes. The heat I see there takes my breath away.
"Your wish is my command Princess.", he chuckles as he kisses his way down my body. When he reaches my belly button, he pulls on the ring I have there eliciting another moan from me.
Once he's flat on his stomach he begins kissing my thighs. I can feel his hot breath on my center. I feel him kiss my pussy. He blows that breath across my panty clad center making me shiver. He swipes his tongue across my lips with a groan. Then he slowly begins to slide my panties down my legs. His mouth quickly comes back to my core with another lick, this one making me arch off the bed with a guttural moan of my own.
Using his hands he spreads me wider, spearing his tongue inside. "Reegan, you taste amazing. So sweet. You're going to become my favorite dessert.", he says then continues to eat me as if I'm his last meal.
His tongue spears my heat over and over. Then his lips find my clit. I can feel a tightening in my stomach. I'm so very close and when his teeth graze me and bite down lightly, I orgasm, screaming his name. Kalan continues his ministrations with his mouth. As he swirls his tongue on my clit, he inserts one finger into my pussy and begins moving it in and out curling as he goes finding that bundle of nerves inside. I'm riding that precipice again, Kalan taking me higher and higher. He then adds a second finger scissoring them until I crash over the edge.
My legs are shaking, and I feel boneless. Kalan crawls back up my body stopping at my breasts. He takes one nipple in my mouth and sucks. He releases it with a pop before moving back up to my mouth. I can taste myself on his lips and tongue. It has me groaning and rearing to go again. I reach between us, placing my hand beneath his waistband finding his hard length. I can feel how big he is. My breath catches in my throat.
"Now it's my turn to see you.", I say breathlessly. "Please Kalan"., I beg.
Kalan gets up and slides his pants down and kicks them off. My mouth drops open and I can feel my eyes bulge out. He's not just big. He's huge. No way will that fit in my pussy. He's long, not overly so but he's super thick. I'm scared he's going to rip me open. He must see the fear in my eyes because he leans down kissing me softly.
"It's ok baby, I'll be gentle and go slow.", he reassures. He kisses me again as he climbs back between my thighs.
We kiss some more, and I can feel my body coming back to life. Kalan reaches between us rubbing his palm on my clit. I can feel the fluid leaking down my thighs. Kalan removes his hand, glistening with my cream, and rubs it up and down his length. I lick my lips wondering how he tastes, and he chuckles.
"I'll fuck that mouth soon enough beautiful but tonight- tonight I want to feel you cum on my cock." Damn. He can talk dirty. I'm panting and he hasn't even attempted to enter me yet.
Kalan positions himself, rubbing th
e head of his cock against my clit. He lowers himself, his cock slowly entering. Inch by agonizing inch enters my body. It feels foreign but not in a bad way. Once he hits a certain spot, he pauses. Then before I can speak, he surges forward. I cry out. The pain is sharp but not agonizingly so.
"You're so fucking tight", Kalan hisses.
He gives me a minute to adjust to having him inside me and then he slowly starts to move. As he picks up the pace, I start to feel that sensation again of rising. I'm a moaning, writhing mess. Just as I feel as though I'm going to crash over again, Kalan changes positions.
He rises to his knees and holds my legs over his shoulders. From this position, I can feel him everywhere. He speeds up his pace hitting a spot so deep inside me that I never knew existed before this moment. I cum screaming his name. A few more pumps and he follows me with a groan.
He releases my legs and then collapses next to me. After his breathing regulates, he gets up and heads to the bathroom. He returns with a warm washcloth. He cleans me up gently and then throws the cloth in the hamper. He returns to the bed, pulls me into him, and covers us both with a light sheet. I snuggle into his chest with my head over his heart. The rhythm of his heart has my eyes drooping closed.
Right before I fall asleep, I feel Kalan press a kiss to my hair and hear him whisper, "I love you Reegan."
……...Kalan……...
I lay here watching Reegan sleep. Things are changing. I can feel it. I love this woman to a depth I never thought I'd feel for anyone. She's burrowed so deep in me, that my soul feels connected to her. "Mate", my mind screams at me. We've all heard the legends of fated mates but usually, it's reserved for the shifter race. It's not to say the other races don't have them but it's rare. That's the only explanation for how my soul felt as if part of it now belonged to this gorgeous creature lying in my arms. Is it possible that we're fated?
A burning sensation on my side has me arching off the bed causing me to yell out. Once I gain back my ability to breathe, I lower the sheet to see what caused the sensation. What I find leaves me reeling. There, by my right hip, is a mark. It looks like an infinity symbol with a feather. What the hell does this mean? I reach down to feel the mark and hiss through my teeth. The mark is tender like the tattoo on my left shoulder felt when I first got it a few years ago.
I'm preparing to wake Reegan when she arches off the bed and gasps. Her eyes are closed. She's still asleep but I see a mark appear on her upper right rib. It's a pair of wings surrounding the sun. The mark of the Seelie Fae, my people's mark. "My mark", my mind screams. Well, there's all the proof I need that we're fated. I trace my fingers over my mark on her flawless skin. It's beautiful. She remains sleeping even while I touch her, even after what had to be the same sensation I felt only moments ago.
I slightly shake her, "Beautiful, wake up baby." She doesn't stir so I try again. She mumbles something incoherent and moves to roll away from me. She comes to with a hiss.
"What the hell Kalan!", she says thinking I caused her discomfort. She looks down at the spot and sees the mark. A large gasp leaves her and then all of a sudden, she breaks down in tears.
Chapter 6: Reegan
"Beautiful, what's wrong? Please don't cry.", I hear Kalan say as I hide my head in his chest. I can't help crying. I know what the mark means. He's my mate. Fated at that.
"They're happy tears, Kalan.", I tell him hoping he doesn't hear the worry in his voice. I don't know what this means for us.
He’s supposed to be King but the laws of Elfame forbid any other race to sit on a throne. I'm not Fae. So even though I am elated to have a mate, nothing changes. What's that mean for us? I've heard the stories about mates forming a bond and then walking away from it. Everyone has a choice right. But those that do ignore the bond slowly go insane. Women and men have been known to take their own lives or the lives of whatever partner they end up with. Once the bond is sealed, it can't be undone.
Kalan places his finger under my chin and lifts it. I lower my eyes.
"Agra, talk to me please," he says, pulling me into his lap.
Beloved. He called me beloved. "We're fated Kalan and that makes me so happy but what of the future? You're to be the King one day and the laws forbid you to marry a non-fae."
He frowns as if this just came to his attention. "Fuck the laws beautiful. They don't mention fated mates. There's no way Dad and Mom would ever deny me the happiness of having my fated by my side."
"But what if they do Kalan. Your parents are nothing if not respectful of laws and traditions. You can fuck you like so long as you marry a fae. Your people will think me lesser and not worthy to stand with you.", I tell him, my heart tearing in two.
"Our people, Reegan. They've been your people as well for most of your life and they love you. You know how rare fated mates are for our kind. They won't be able to deny the bond.", he tries to placate me, but I still think it's a shot in the dark. "And if they don't want us together, then they don't want me as king. I'll abdicate the throne, let Aldair rule. I don't care. I won't give you up. I loved you before this bond and I will love you for all the days of my life."
Just marking my spot so I can finish this when I wake up!!! This is amazing! I love it! I snuggle into his embrace, content for the time being just being held in his arms. Then it hits me that I haven't seen my mark on him. Did the bond not completely take?
"Kalan! My mark? I didn't see my mark on you!"
"Oh, he laughs. I guess I forgot. Here." he says pulling down the sheet. There on his hip, I can see the symbol, but I don't know what it is. It's not like any marks I've ever seen.
“What's it mean? I've never seen a mark like this. Shouldn't be the elemental mark? I ask, confused. I know I have other abilities, but the elemental powers are the only ones to show themselves and stay consistent over the years.
“I don’t know, beautiful, but we’ll figure it out together.”, he reassures me.
I snuggle back into his embrace and sigh. So many questions are pulling at me, but I have no answers, yet. The queen may have some answers, but I plan to seek out Marcus. He’s my grandfather and it's time he stops hiding from me.
I must have fallen back to sleep because I wake drowsy to an amazing feeling. I look down and see Kalan’s green eyes looking back at me.
“Breakfast isn’t for another couple of hours beautiful, so I thought I’d go for my dessert now.”, he chuckles.
He dips back down and closes his mouth around my clit. I buck up into his mouth threading my fingers through his blonde hair. I moan as he laps at me. I crest that wave again and his tongue fucks me right through it. The next thing I know, I’m flipped onto my stomach with my ass in the air. He enters me slowly moaning as he enters inch by inch. When he’s fully seated, he pauses. Then he begins to move. Speeding up his strokes until all I can do is pant and groan as he hits so deep inside me, I’ll be walking funny for the next few days.
“You feel so good.”, he groans.
“Kalan!”, I scream as I orgasm again.
With a few more groans, Kalan follows with his own caveman-like scream. He collapses along my back peppering kisses to my shoulders. He rolls off of me, pulling me with him.
“In case you didn’t hear me last night, I love you Reegan, always. That mark just cements what I’ve felt for so long. Even without that mark, I would choose you and to hell with anyone that went against it. I’ll give my throne up for you. It will be years before it is time for me to rule and I’m sure Aldair will happily lead in my stead.”, he says.
I can’t help the smile that graces my lips. I turn to look at him and I can see the sincerity in his eyes. “I love you too my prince.”, I answer, giving him a small kiss.
“We should probably get cleaned up. While I’d love nothing more than to stay in this bed all day with you, I know those questions running rampant in your mind need answers. So get that sexy ass of yours up and let me help you wash your hair.”, he smiles lasciviously.
I do as he say
s, getting up and heading into the shower. I turn on the water to its hottest setting. Stepping into the water, a breath leaves me. The water feels so good running over my muscles. Kalan steps in behind me pulling me back into his chest. He squeezes shampoo into his hand and begins massaging it into my scalp and hair. It feels so good, I can’t help the moan that escapes me.
Kalan ignores my moans and moves to rinse my hair. He then uses the conditioner, taking more time to massage it in. After that’s done, he soaps up my body rubbing it into my skin slowly, torturously. He must see the fire banking in my eyes because he leans down and bites down on my lower lip. I groan, pushing my naked body into his. He wraps his arms around me and kisses me hard. Too soon, he pulls away laughing at the sound of protest that leaves my mouth.
“Now, now, beautiful. We don’t have time for any more play right now, but I promise we will continue this.”, he states. I just huff with a pout. He laughs again, as he grabs the shampoo for himself. He quickly washes and turns off the water.
We step out of the shower onto the heated floors. He grabs a towel for himself and then one for me. He helps to dry me and then he dries himself as I dress in my bra and panties. After he is done, I make my way to the closet. I pull out a pair of deep brown leggings, a green crop top, and my black sneakers. After breakfast and answers, I’ll be spending most of the morning in the gym, training, so this is my go-to for the day.
More like being tortured by Rodriq. I swear that man hates me. He seems to go out of his way to make my life hell. We spend two hours every day doing physical training. Another three with me practicing my elemental powers. You’d think they’d come easy to me, but they don’t. Rodriq says it's because I hold all of them and it makes it harder to control. I can tell though that he’s getting frustrated with me. Frustrated with my slow development and control.
