Hunters of the Gods 5_The Countdown Read online

  “Fuck. You’re wild, mate, aren’t you?”

  She grabbed onto him and rolled him to his back, using her wolf strength to tighten her thighs against his and she rode him fast.

  “Fuck yeah. Yeah, woman, just like that,” he said and raised his arms back as she gripped onto his forearms and rode him, trying to relieve the itch that was building up inside of her. She was moving fast and then he was shifting to the side, and she knew that his brothers wanted to join in. She let him slide over until his legs hanging form the bed. The cool air hit her asshole and inner thighs, and she felt like the only thing stopping her from falling back was Rule’s thick, hard cock which she was impaled on. Up and down, back and forth, she rode him, looking to ease the ache. When Law joined in and licked her asshole as he gripped her shoulders and rocked against her she craved it. The feel of a cock in her pussy and ass at once. It was wild and carnal, and her wolf needed to mark them, too. As soon as his finger pushed into her asshole she lowered down and ravished Rule’s mouth. He ran his fingers through her hair, gripped the locks, and her hip on one side and counterthrust upward. Simultaneously Law removed his finger and replaced it with his cock and began to nudge into her asshole inch by inch. She felt so much. She closed her eyes, feeling the magic within her. The voices guiding her told her this was right, this was real, and they were forever. As she started to come she knew what she needed to do, and Law thrust all the way into her asshole and she moaned louder. The two of them began to take control and fuck her long and deep and her orgasm kept building and building.

  “There.” Rule grunted.

  “Me, too. This ass,” Law said.

  “This woman,” Temerec said, and waited his turn.

  That brought her urgency to claim each of them up a notch. “More, Rule. You’re mine and I am yours,” she said, and then he grunted as she came at the same time. She bit into Rule’s shoulder, marking him. A tingling sensation filtered around them and she popped her eyes open.

  “What was that?” he asked.

  “Mine,” she whispered, as her incisors elongated and Law grunted and came in her ass. As he pulled out, she grabbed onto him and bit into his shoulder next. He was shocked, but then she knew she must look wild. As she turned, she saw Temerec as Rule lifted her up to him and Temerec took her. His expression was fierce as he lifted her up so she straddled his waist and he pushed her up against the bedroom wall. Their hips were thrusting, smacking together, her breasts bouncing, and her breathing rapid. “Together, mate. Together,” he said, and she knew what he meant.

  As their orgasms built up and they were about to come, Law and Rule put their hands on each of their shoulders. “Come. Together and bit him as he bites you,” Law said.

  She panted with head tilted back as he suckled against her neck and nipped her skin, sending her to near explosion. She nipped Temerec back and then that was it. They came at the same time and leaned into one another as his brothers held onto both of them and they came, as she bit into Temerec’s shoulder and Temerec bit into hers. The room exploded in light, her body felt as if it levitated and a peacefulness consumed her and they held one another in a circle, calming their breathing.

  * * * *

  “That was incredible,” Temerec said, and kissed where he had bitten her, but the mark wasn’t there. He placed his hand on her shoulder as he slid it from her hip. “The mark isn’t there.

  They reached up to feel where they had each gotten bitten and it wasn’t there.

  “I feel it though,” Law said.

  “I feel it, too,” Rule added.

  “It’s there, it’s the magic I think,” she said as Temerec carried her to the bed and gently lay her down as his cock slid from her body. He felt the loss, but quickly covered her with his body again and his wolf was at peace. He stroked her hair from her cheek. “Rest and then we talk.”

  “I think we should talk while we’re so tired and resting. You know as well as I do that as soon as we get more energy we will be at it again,” she said and winked.

  “Ouch.” She gasped as Law gave her ass a spank.

  “Just remember who is in charge,” he said and winked.

  “I don’t mind you being in charge in the bedroom,” she said.

  “What do you mean, in the bedroom? Like that’s the only place I’ll be in charge?” Law asked.

  “That we’ll be in charge?” Rule asked.

  “Hmm, it’s an Alpha thing, right? I get it. But you have to know that it’s important for me to keep up my training and my moves.”

  Temerec slid his palm along her hips and rocked against her. “You’re moves are addicting,” he said, and then kissed her nose.

  She chuckled but then pushed him away as she laughed. He slid to the side and pulled her against his chest. Law slid up behind her and held her too as Rule once again took position by her legs. She would be spread open and begging for cock again in no time. They better get their questions in now.

  “So who was your pack, and how did you come to be a guard to Alexandra?” he asked.

  She licked her lips, and in doing so hit his skin and his cock was on alert. He cleared his throat and she slid her palm to his cock and began to stroke it. He covered her hand with his. “You keep that up and we won’t find out some things about you. We know hardly anything,” Temerec said and she released his cock and then exhaled.

  “Okay, well my pack was small. Like hundred, and we lived in Louisiana. It was the Aquana pack. A small military like community that provided protection to royalty, high profile shifters and such. My mother and her parents were affluent in the pack, and then she met my fathers, they were from Tiberk pack in Romania. They too did similar type jobs. They also had family that came with them. There was always something different about me than other were in the pack, and even in other packs as I grew older and traveled. I was fourteen when the problems began to arise. Some kind of protective mission was in place and my parents were all part of it. However, things started happening.”

  “Things?” Rule asked.

  She swallowed and sat up. They did too as she pulled the sheet against her chest.

  She looked at each of them. “It was a scary time. Wolves were turning up dead. Missions where soldiers of the pack escorted high profile wolves from place to place were intercepted and killed. No matter what the leaders did to organize a plan, it was like someone from within was against them. Then Delia showed up. She came in with creatures, mutants not even normal or describable, and they massacred everyone. My parents were killed, even as we all fought side by side.”

  “How did you survive?” Temerec asked, caressing her hair as Rule brought her hand to his lips and kissed her knuckles.

  “I don’t know. My memory of the events are scattered, but I do recall fighting, taking several hits, and feeling myself getting weaker and weaker. My eyes locked onto Delia as she hit my fathers with magic. They cried out in pain. I remember my mother so bloody and torn up. It was horrific. I crawled toward Delia, ready to die, trying to kill her when darkness overtook my vision. I don’t know how I lived. I really thought I died, but then I woke up and I’m in a cottage with all these women around me, and Loki. Margarete is there, and she is a healer, a medicine woman. I believe she helped save me, as well, although she says my time wasn’t up, that I was meant to do more in this life. Margarete and Loki said Buschool found me and brought me to their village as there were many healers there. Their families were connected to the towns in Texas and I trained with the intention of killing Delia for what she had done, until the gods spoke to me and told me what my role was in this life and what was expected of me.”

  “So Buschool saved you? That is why you are so close? He bit you?” Rule asked, seeming jealous and also concerned.

  “He swears he didn’t. That when he found me I was alive and he bought me to Loki’s family, and Margarete showed up to help heal me. Buschool guided me and was there several times over the years. He made sure that I didn’t run off chasing Delia, a v
ery capable witch as you three recall, and wind up dead. He helped train me and with Margarete’s help, I started to zone in on my powers. As I got stronger things happened to slow down my pursuit of revenge for several years.”

  “What things?” Rule asked.

  “A woman who carried the only heir to the Keuric throne was in trouble. Alexandra and Alyssa were attacked along with their grandmother, he asked me to be a part of her security team, and I agreed. The gods wanted me to be part of this, and in doing so I gained a family and a group of friends that I will have forever.”

  Law gave her a smile. “Which led you to us. If I had known the story, and how close you came to dying because of that nasty witch, I never would have allowed you to follow her that day in the cottage. You saved Buschool. You revealed your powers to us.” He stroked her cheek and jaw.

  “I knew you were my mates instantly. Buschool knew, too. But he didn’t stop me from telling you that I needed to follow Delia, and I knew there was a reason why. The information I’ve brought forth today. Roovio Gaines is more than likely the wolf who has been strategically trying to minimize power over all packs.”

  “But what about this master?” Temerec asked her.

  She took a deep breath and released it. “Considering the connections to Alphas and their mates and the bloodlines, the powers, the connections we all share, I would say that it is going to take all of you. All the Alphas of both Keuric pack, Saint pack, and their mates to fight this master. He has a plan, and he has been building an army and witches, warlocks, sorcerers and demons could all be part of that army. I really don’t know, but Delia will die by my hands. That I guarantee,” she said with vigor.

  Chapter Five

  Security was heavy as the lead Alphas of Saint pack and Keuric pack, along with their sons and nephews, gathered in the meeting room with their mates. Half of the members of the Circle would be present in precaution. When the full Circle did meet, it was in a secure location. Preston, Heracio, and Saunder kept Alexandra between them as they sat behind their fathers Comton, Lytes, and Frame, along with Elaina. As Cable’t entered the room with them, gasps and shock filled the room, not only because he was a vampire, a well-known one at that, but also because it was daylight. This show of magic, or power definitely put everyone on the defensive. Comtom didn’t care. This was his family. The gods ultimately led them in their lives, and in their decisions, because they were all faithful to the laws of were, and didn’t stray.

  Elaina’s sister Selania was with her men, Jordan, Korkak, and Lucca, Alphas to Keuric pack. Puello, Ross, Stark, Galvin, and Alyssa were behind them. They were the only ones present in this first meeting, and they would be the ones questioned about their loyalty and place.

  Introductions were made, and Comton could tell that the members of the Circle present were affected by Alexandra and Alyssa immediately. Alexandra smiled softly. “It is an honor to be here in your presence and to serve you,” she said, sort of shocking Libertin and Claspen. But Claspen immediately smiled and patted her hand she had offered as she bowed to him.

  “You are quite stunning, Alexandra, as is your sister. No wonder the Saint and Keuric Alphas are so protective of both of you,” Claspen said and then smiled.

  “We all are aware of the evil permeating several packs across the land,” Comton said.

  “Not so much lately. Seems that whenever one of your mates, or pack members’ mates is in trouble the violence and abductions stop. I wonder why that is,” Libertin said in a pompous tone. He was always so self-centered and obnoxious.

  Before Comton could say a word Cable’t came forward. “This is unheard of. Black magic at its finest,” Libertin said in disgust, and eyed the vampire over.

  Instead of Cable’t giving a verbal response, he placed his hands on Alexandra’s shoulders as he held Libertin’s gaze.

  “The gods have the ultimate power over all realms. We accept whatever they ask of us,” he said, and then slid one hand from her shoulder to her hand, and then brought her to the sitting area.

  “It’s absurd. How do you stand there and share such a beautiful mate with a bloodletter?” Libertin said to Preston.

  Preston eyed him over very casually and calmly. “You don’t have a mate yet, Libertin, so you don’t get it.”

  Claspen cleared his throat. “Let’s sit and discuss the events that have taken place recently and our concerns, shall we?” He motioned with his hand for everyone to take their seats and so it began.

  * * * *

  Alexandra got an uneasy feeling about Libertin, however, there seemed to be some kind of magic over him, a force of some kind and she didn’t get it. Was she imagining it? He was an attractive man. Tall, muscular, wide shoulders and had jet black hair with just a slight bit of gray at the temples. He appeared distinguished and important and sure acted like that. He dressed in style and as if he had money and power. His eyes, a dark brown, held her gaze right now and she didn’t turn away. His lip curled slightly and she knew she needed to act shy, submissive, not superior to him so she made her cheeks blush and she shyly looked away. His fingers tapped on the table as the questions, or rather, accusations began.

  “It’s of concern that you are mixing with vampires, instilling magic amongst one another, and trying to hide it from the Circle and those of authority,” Claspen began.

  “We are not hiding anything. We are here, are we not, Claspen? We came willingly because you are the Circle, the law and regulations to all were packs. My sons, my nephews, and both the Keuric and Saint packs have been fighting to protect the Circle as Hunters of the Gods. We answer to the gods. Receive our orders and missions from them,” Comtom stated.

  “With the help of bloodletters known to be untrusting, manipulative and fake. Buschool is a traitor to his kind. He isn’t trusted by anyone,” Libertin stated.

  “Not true. He is trusted by all of us,” Comtom said, and the other members of the Circle mumbled and gasped.

  “They meet with the Vignola, the most powerful organization they have, and you are fine with this? With knowing that the vamps could be strategically planning a takeover,” Libertin asked.

  “They are not planning a takeover,” Cable’t stated.

  “You have no authority to speak out here, bloodsucker!” Libertin yelled as he pointed at Cable’t.

  Cable’t clenched his teeth and Alexandra eased his mind.

  “That is not what their meeting was all about. It was for similar reasons why you all have called us here today,” Preston stated.

  She noticed Libertin look at two of the other members, Cuppa and Solero. Something was exchanged.

  “What was the meeting about?” Solero asked.

  “Their concerns of us tainting the vamp ancestry by mating with wolves,” Cable’t said in annoyance.

  “Tainted by were blood? That’s insane. It is your blood that taints the lines of Keuric and Saint pack. Two bloodletters contaminating the lines. It is definitely a ply to take over,” Solero stated.

  “Perhaps they are the ones behind the massacres, the destruction of were packs so they can be the most powerful packs when all is said and done,” Cuppa stated, and the other members began to voice concerns.

  “It very well could be. They could continue to meet with Vignola and then what? A takeover by vamps?” one of the other members continued.

  “It is not like that at all. Your fears are unjustified because you are used to a way of the past and not that of the future and the fight ahead of all of us,” Alexandra stated and the room went silent.

  She realized as Preston shook his head at her that she had spoken out and it was a show of disrespect, but she wouldn’t let these men, the Circle do this. She had knowledge and powers of her own. They were meant to do good, to show support and to encourage a purity of life.

  “I mean no disrespect, sirs. Truly I do not. Some of you have sustained your own losses connected to families and pack members you have known for decades. Can you sit here and say that you don’t wa
nt to preserve the quality of life, the laws and regulations of the were at whatever the cost? We have seen the violence firsthand. Have witnessed the women and children tortured and killed, as well as those left behind with nothing but the clothes on their backs and the scars on their battles. We have pulled together resources as the gods have encouraged us to do, to help the survivors and to protect others in the path of this violence,” Alexandra said to them.

  “By means of cohering with an enemy of weres,” Cuppa said to her.

  “And in doing so, how convenient that those survivors are welcomed into only two packs, Keuric and Saint. Is that to build your army in defense against perhaps a fake evil that you have all created yourselves?” Libertin accused.

  “That’s an outrage, and I won’t sit here and have my family, my pack, be accused of such lies. Perhaps you need to question your own position here and why you, Libertin, find it so crucial to destroy our reputations and question our loyalty to the Circle,” Comton stated firmly.

  “You dare accuse me of being disloyal? I’m not the one mixing with vamps. Allowing them to meet with the Vignola.”

  “Libertin, they explained why they did that and it makes sense. We asked them to come here to explain and answer our questions and they are doing that,” Claspen stated. “They were dancing around the truth. If they are loyal, and their vamp mates, too, then they will no longer mingle with the Vignola, making it appear as if the wolves are under their mind control, but instead are acting on their own will and desires.”

  Alexandra thought of the event they needed to attend tomorrow night with the Vignola present to show face. If the Circle found out about it, they would think that the Alphas and the rest of them were being disloyal.

  “Then they will promise to not mingle with the Vignola. That their loyalties lie here with the were communities and packs across this nation and beyond,” Libertin stated.

  “Can you do that? A show of loyalty to the Circle and the cause?” he pushed.
