Filed to story: Oh For Mates Sake Free Online
“My father is a centaur, and my mother is a werewolf..” Okay, I couldn’t help myself as I tried to figure out how that worked. How exactly did they. you know what? Never mind. Some things you are just not meant to know. I needed to change the subject to get that mental image from creeping into my mind.
“So… uhm… you said earlier that we were connected? How so?”
I watched as a smirk rose over his face as he turned to look at me. “I didn’t just casually tell you about my parents for no reason.” Okay. what was he getting at here? I squeezed my hands together nervously.
“What do your parents have to do with our connection?” I felt like my throat was tightening and I had no spit left to swallow.
“How else would you feel connected to me? You are my mate think that much is obvious.” This cave was getting hotter and smaller. And the air was incredibly thick, right? Where was the oxygen? I need a damn canary to see what the carbon monoxide level is. I licked my l!ps nervously.
“Uhm… well… the thing is…I have Sion… and–”
“And? | don’t mind sharing. We can make a schedule and take turns” I stared at him as I tried to think how to reply. I didn’t even want to think how taking turns with a centaur would work. Not to mention I wasn’t into sharing. I wanted a more traditional family lifestyle. I needed to let him down gently but make my position clear.
“I don’t feel any mate pull towards you and—“
He busted out laughing as I watched him dumbstruck. I failed to see the humor in this.
“I’m just teasing you, Clover.” His laughter quieted as he smiled at me. “My mother was your father’s sister.” My l!ps parted in shock as I stared at Demetri.
“So we are–“
“Family. Cousins to be exact.” He had a sad look in his eyes as I listened to him sigh. “We were supposed to be close. I was supposed to be your beta. In the Chaos pack, the Alpha and Luna have their own officers. You know luna is just the female name for an alpha, right? The Chance pack had their luna and alpha as equals. Both were equal leaders in the pack. The way it was always meant to be. Not all packs work this way. A lot have their alphas ahead of the lunas, but they were always meant to be equals.” I watched as he poked the fire with a stick as he stayed lying down. The fire danced in his eyes.
“Tell me what happened?”
“I am. I’m just waiting…”
“Waiting?”
I watched as he grinned and looked up at me. “Yep waiting. for our guests.” He then looked down the tunnel.
I turned my head and peered down the dark pathway. I didn’t see anything. I looked harder and then the smell of sassafras embraced me making my heart beat faster. A moment later, a colossal black smokey Lycan stepped into view. He was magnificent. He was like the titan version of a werewolf. Behind him, I saw three others stepping forward. Conner’s Lycan, Kai and Logan’s wolves.
They were all here… and safe.
Sheena’s voice rang out in my mind clearly, as l breathed in his welcoming scent.
Mate!
I let out a sigh of instant relief. I slowly stood to my feet as Sion shifted back to his human self. A moment of overwhelming shock and happiness consumed me. I ran to him, and his arms engulfed me. He held me tight as I breathed in his wonderful scent.
“Are you alright?” | managed to ask right before his l!ps covered mine. His tongue thrust into my mouth possessively as he held my head. The mate sparks and tingles ignited through my body. The response from me was practically involuntary. It was as if my body was heeding his primal call accepting it as our own.. and it was my own. wanted more. I forgot there were others around.
It was just Sion and his welcoming tongue that was attacking my own. I didn’t have the willpower to pull away but somehow, he did. I panted against him as I watched his hazel eyes. He looked over the stained bandages, and I watched as his eyes began to water.
“l promised I wouldn’t let anything happen to you..” His voice was quivering as his hand traced over one of the bandages on my arm. I could see his bottom l!p tremble and I couldn’t bear it. I reached up and wrapped my arms around his neck bringing his l!ps to mine again.
The electricity burned as the shocks rippled throughout my body. It was intense. It was real. This man.. was mine.
It was not nearly as powerful with Denny. This magnifying force between us was almost terrifying. I could easily get lost in him. I felt like all of my senses disappeared and my only focus was him. This time I managed to pull away as I cupped his cheeks in my hands.
“Sion, things are going to happen to me. You can’t stoplit6-from happening. But you can be by my side during it Besides, I am an amazing fighter.” I bit my bottom l!p as ł smiled up at him.
“She is an incredible fighter. It was ten Seekers against us, and she took down two of them. If it wasn’t for her.” Kai stopped, and Sion nodded his head his eyes glued to mine. I could see the question burning in Sion’s eyes. I had gotten my wolf. He was waiting for me to say what he knew all along.
“‘So… are you going to explain why this mate pull is a lot more intense with you?” I asked and watched as his l!ps curled up. He leaned down pressing his forehead against mine. Every touch sent crazy tingles through my body.
“Do any of you guys suddenly feel like this mine became smaller?” Logan chuckled. Wait a minute? Was this the place they planned to go all along?
“Is this where we were supposed to meet up?” I asked as I looked up at Sion. He kept his arms around me and rubbed my lower back. Da.mn his touch was intoxicating.
“I was on my way here when I ran into the others. I was panicked when I didn’t see you with them. They explained what happened and we tracked you here. Right where we planned to meet up from the very beginning. I guess the mine we used to play in as kids weren’t just our mine.” Sion looked behind me at Demetri.
“Well come on in and sit down. We need to wait out the onslaught out there. They are after Clover, you know?” Demetri’s words barely left his mouth and Sion’s eyes grew dark. I felt his body tense as he pulled me closer to him.
“They can’t have her,” Sion growled and Demetri laughed.
“No, they can’t.”
“Guys this is Demetri. he is my cousin.” I could see the shocked lock in Sion’s eyes as Demetri chimed in behind me.
“I am also her beta.”
“So you are part…” Conner started to say as Demetri nodded his head.
“My mother was a werewolf. She was the alpha’s sister.”
“Your father didn’t pull the plow; he was the plow. He put your mom on all fours and-” Logan began to say, and l shook my head, yelling at him.
“Gods, Logan, we don’t need to hear this?!”
Some things didn’t need explained.
“It’s not the only way-” Demetri started, and I gave him a mortified look.
“So, what happened with those undead creatures? The voidless?” I had to steer this conversation.
