Reclaiming My Fated Alpha(Freya Series Book 5)
Chapter 2
"What?" I asked in a disturbed tone, I had no idea what she was saying.
"Freya, I am as to blame for the state of our supernatural community, than any other. Long ago, to keep my moon realm alive, I asked for help from a powerful warlock. He and his coven were able to feed me and my realm enough power for decades. In return, I kept them safe from werewolves and vampires. Once the older witches and warlocks aged, then died off, the younger members felt their deal died along with them. They refused to help me any longer. So, I began kidnapping their children, using the powerful and discarding the weak."
She raised her head up to look at me, her bright white hair almost covering her eyes. Through a few strands of her hair, I could see the glisten of tears that were readily rolling down her cheeks. As a friend, I should have comforted her, but as the future leader of all supernatural beings, all I wanted to do was choke the life out of her. In my head she was no better than Azael or Kali, using innocent people to gain power. As I struggled to hold my rage in, I thrust my hand forward and grabbed her face. With her lips all smooshed together, I knew she wouldn't be able to reply, as I said in a deep and authoritative voice,
"I don't know what you were trying to achieve by telling me this, Selene, because all I want to do right now is skin you alive. Get to the point, and quickly."
She looked up at me with fear clearly filling her eyes. I guess she knew exactly how powerful I was, even if I didn't have the slightest idea myself. She quickly pulled herself together, brushed her hair out of her face, then stood up off of the bed. Her demeanor morphed back into the strong and fearless woman I was used to. To be honest the sniveling wreck she'd just shown me wasn't exactly something I ever wanted to see again. It was more than a little uncomfortable, and frankly kinda pathetic.
"Fine, I will leave that story for another day. I wanted you to find out from me and not the magical community, or Azael. Look, my point is, I have done a lot in the past to hurt my people. I am now trying to change, and make it up to them. I don't want you making the same mistakes I did..."
"I'm not you Selene," I quickly cut her off.
"Yes, I know that Freya, but with the power you now possess, it is easy to get addicted, and before long, you'll crave even more. Look at Gideon, Azael and Kali. I don't want that for you. Power changes people, it makes them do horrendous things, that they normally would never even think of doing. Please just be careful, that's all I'm saying."
With that said, she turned and strolled out of the room. I sat on the bed dumbfounded by her speech. Less than ten minutes ago, I felt amazing, ready to take on the whole damn world. Now, well, now I felt a little crap. I was angry with her for even insinuating that I would ever be like her, Azael, Kali or Gideon. They all have evil sides to them, or let's face it, they are all evil through and through. That isn't me, is it?
My mind began to race and play me visions of everything I'd done to hurt people over the last few years. Ripping Balan's head off and throwing it across the dancefloor like a bowling ball. Putting my stiletto heel through Amber’s eye. Nearly ripping a few people apart, letting hunters die and be experimented on. Breaking Tristan and Mason's hearts, and killing Chase.
I sighed, as every last horrible thing that I'd done in my life swam around in my mind. Maybe she was right, I had more evil in me than I cared to admit. I needed to keep my head straight and I needed to make sure, no matter what, that I didn't turn out like any of them. God knows I was already on my way there.
"You won't be like them you know."
Without looking up I knew exactly who it was. With my new senses, I could smell her unique scent, and hear the beat of her heart, before she even walked into the room.
"What if I can't control myself, Savanah?" I asked as she sat down on the bed beside me. She slid her soft, delicate hand down my arm then linked her fingers with mine.
"I'll make sure you do, we all will. That's what we're here for. We are your family, strength and support. We are your pack. We will be your anchor, keeping you grounded, and I will be the glue between you and everyone else. When you feel like you're losing your grip on reality, I will be here to bring you back. Always and forever my precious Luna."
Her words were so comforting, like a warm blanket on the coldest of nights. Her calming voice swept over me, easing my chaotic mind instantly. I rested my head on her shoulder, and replied,
"Thank you, Savanah. I don't know what I'd do without you."
I sat there for a while listening to Savanah humming a beautiful lullaby. Before I knew it, I felt myself drifting off to sleep. I sensed Marik and Traian come into the room, but my eyes were too heavy to open. Traian silently scooped me up and placed me into the middle of the comfortable bed, then covered me up. I felt Savanah leave the room, and I expected the twins to follow, but they didn't.
Traian laid on the bed next to me, stroking my hair, while Marik climbed onto the bed and laid at my other side. He gently rested his head onto my shoulder and began to purr. The love I felt from them both was overwhelming, but soothing at the same time. I finally fell asleep, feeling the calmest and safest I had in a long time.
Freya Rose
I awoke still sandwiched between the twins. The low thump of their hearts was hypnotic, and strangely I could tell which beat belong to each. Marik's was slightly faster with the occasional skip, Traian's was slower and more consistent. Their heavy breathing filled my ears, and if I wasn't dying for a pee, it would have easily sent me back off to sleep. I stayed there for as long as I possibly could, but it was no use.
It’s either get up and run to the bathroom, or pee in the bed.
"I'd prefer the latter. As much as I adore you, laying in your pee-soaked sheets, is a little out of my comfort zone," Traian's sleepy, yet extremely sexy voice startled me.
I lay there stiff as a board, with my eyes tightly closed, and my cheeks beginning to flush. I had completely forgotten that he could hear my thoughts. I was used to keeping Selene out, but now I had to learn how to shut him out too. I felt him turn over on the bed, and before I had a chance to react, his lips were placing soft and delicious kisses on my neck. I let out a low moan, which in turn caused Marik's arm to tighten around my waist as he stirred.
I reached my hand up and slid it between my neck and Traian's face, squashing his lips in the process. As nice as his kisses felt, I really needed a pee, and if Marik woke up fully, I'd have two of them to resist. Right now, I didn't think I'd be able to resist one of them, let alone both.
My heart still ached for Mason, but the pain of knowing that he had slept with Imogen, and the ‘monster' comment he'd hissed at me, hurt beyond belief. I kept playing all of it, over and over in my mind, which squeezed out a lot of the love I felt for him, and replaced it with hatred. Add in the fact that he wouldn’t remember me now anyway, after the cloaking spell, and the fate of our relationship was pretty much sealed. I wished that things could have been different. I mean, I loved Tristan and Mason so damn much, but life had other plans for me, and them, by the looks of it.
Traian groaned as I pushed his face away from me. He collapsed onto the bed with a huff. My lip curled into a small grin, knowing how much I was affecting him. I slid Marik's arm off of my lower abdomen and instantly felt my bladder bulge. I didn't have long, but I knew I wanted to tease Traian a little more before I rushed off.
I threw the duvet off of my body, before lifting my leg and placing myself on top of Traian, making sure to press my crotch right into his. I chuckled with surprise when I felt his excited dick, eager and ready to greet me. He instantly placed his hands onto my hips and groaned while pushing me down, harder onto his member. I smiled down at him, as I placed my hands on top of his.
He let me take control, so I guided his hands up my body until they rested on my breasts. He gave them a gentle squeeze, and just as he began to sit up, I jumped off of him and sprinted toward the bathroom. When the door slammed behind me, I could hear him letting out a frustrated groan, which made me chuckle. I locked the door, before dancing out of my pajama bottoms, then finally throwing myself down onto the toilet.
I was surprised that the pee didn't shoot right out of me like a burst dam. Instead, it felt like it was trapped, making my tummy feel hard. I pushed a little and there it went, making me moan out with relief as it sped up. I didn’t think I'd ever enjoyed a pee so damn much. After finishing, I washed my hands, while cautiously glancing into the mirror, hoping what looked back at me wasn't a complete hot mess. Surprisingly, I looked pretty good, hair in a messy bun, slightly more tanned complexion than normal, and bright blue eyes that held a new sparkle.
"Vampire looks good on you," came a soft voice inside my head.
"Mina?"
I hadn't heard from her in weeks, not since being turned by Traian.
"Yeah, I'm here. How long have I been gone?" She asked quietly, she sounded a little sad, but I was just glad to hear her voice.
"Around two weeks, give or take. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I feel a little odd, but I'm okay."
"What do you mean by odd?" I asked curiously.
"Well, I feel stronger for one. Like I fell into a deep sleep, then awoke revitalized. My mind is clearer, I feel more connected to you, and not tied down by my mate bond to Lachlan."
"Who's Lachlan?"
"Oh yeah, you never knew Tristan's wolf's name, did you?"
I rolled my eyes knowing now why she didn't feel tied down by her mate bond to him.
"The cloaking spell, it worked."
"Oh, so does that mean the mate bond is gone forever, or until they remember us?" She asked in a sad tone.
"I'm not sure Mina, there are so many questions, I didn't ask before doing it. I think we need to have a meeting with Selene."
"I agree."
I finished washing my hands and decided to take a shower. After my shower, I placed a towel around my body, before opening the bathroom door. I gasped and froze on the spot. In front of me stood Traian and Marik, both half naked, in just their boxers and socks. Why do men leave their socks on? I asked myself.
"Because we don't want our feet to get cold," Traian replied out loud to my thought.
I blushed again. I really need to learn how to lock him out. I thought to myself, then instantly rolled my eyes knowing that he'd just heard that too. He chuckled as my cheeks flushed yet again. I stood there trying my best not to look at either of them, their defined bodies were more than enough to bring any woman, or man for that matter, to their knees. With Traian cemented in my mind, I didn't want him knowing how turned on I was. I kept my head lowered and my eyes staring at the floor. Mina had laughed at me, then left me to deal with this by myself. I am going to have stern words with her later, that's for sure.
While off in my mind, wondering how I would yell at Mina, I hadn't noticed Traian move towards me. When I did glance up, he was approaching me with eyes as black as night, filled with lust. My heart began to pound, it was so loud I could hear it in my ears. My head turned to follow Marik as he stalked behind me with the same lust-filled gaze as his brother. I gulped while turning back around to face Traian.
This is it, the mate bonding. Are we gonna do it right now? And oh my God, is he seriously biting his lip? Fuck, now I know how men feel when I do it. Screw it, let's do this!
Traian barely had time to release his lip from his teeth, when I launched myself at him like a crazed harpy. I had a plan in my head, that I'd grab his face and smash my lips onto his, but it didn't quite go to plan. His eyes widened in shock, and his arms reached out ready to catch me. With my new abilities as a vampire, I was a lot faster than I used to be. I tried to slow down but it was no use, I crashed right into him, sending us both hurtling to the floor. As the back of his head hit the, floor it sprung back up again, heading towards my face.
Crack!
The sound of his nose breaking beneath my forehead echoed through the room. I lifted my head and quickly pulled myself off of him. His hand shot up to his nose, making him groan as he tried to ease the bleeding.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry Tray. I..." I tried to apologize with my hands stretched out in front of me, as I backed away from him.
"Oh shit, what did you do?" Marik asked with a chuckle, but I was so focused on Traian, that I'd completely forgotten that Marik was there.
