Amanda
The first two marks were nothing compared to the sensations of the third one. My teeth ripped through
his skin flesh and rivers of blood trailed down Bo's chest, but instead of wincing or ducking away he
almost seemed to welcome it. His lips were twitching and he even moaned from the pain.
These new mates of mine were unlike anyone I'd ever met. But, there was still a chance I could use
them. I didn't know if I could trust Zale's words, but if he wanted to tear through my old pack and get
revenge for the woman I once was? I'd take full advantage and those that had tormented me would be
torn apart.
"Fuck," Bo whispered, pressing a hand down on the spot and stilling the flow of blood. "You didn't hold
back, Luna."
"And with that you've marked all of your mates, and we've marked you." Zale smirked. "Which means,
it's time for you to awaken fully my Luna."
"Awaken?" I questioned. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Yes," answered a deep growl inside my head. A growl that was not my own wolf. What the heck?
"Worry not, Luna. You have the bond of a Prime, and one who is awakening his power. This is not
some mere mating bond. I can walk freely between your minds, can even make you shift into my form if
I so desire it."
I stared. "Zale," I squeaked. "I heard another wolf, is that yours?"
"Ares? Yes, he's my wolf, and just like I will, he'll protect you with your life, Luna."
"But don't worry, Amanda, I will not let it slip about your little murder plans you are spinning. I'm fond of
blood myself, and now that you belong to me, there will be no mercy for anyone that's even so much as
glared at you. We will slaughter the lot of them, and those you wish to keep, I will protect."
I shivered. My own wolf was silent, almost as if she was bowing down to the power inside us. I wanted
to ask this strange wolf just what the extent of this sharing thing was. Could the others hear me? Would
their wolves be able to freely range through my mind as well?
"Only a Prime has this power, Luna. Worry not."
I forced a smile to my lips. This put a wrinkle into my plans, but I'd figure out a solution, I always did.
Besides, if it meant I had a murder wolf at my fingertips, I'd take it.
Zale leaned forward, kissing my forehead. "This will keep you safe in the coming days."
I frowned. "What do you mean?"
"We have to leave your side. Ares will make sure you're never at any other's mercy."
I was going to be left alone? "But," I interrupted. "I don't know anything about being a Luna of this pack.
I can't just take care of it."
Javier stretched, rubbing his foot against my own. "You're going to be fine. Besides, we've got servants.
Just be sure you don't let them get too close. I'd hate to have to murder good help because they got the
wrong idea."
Bo growled. "Don't even joke about that shit," snarled at the other man.
Zale patted both, like he was trying to calm down vicious animals, and in a sense he was. "Calm down,
Amanda is a sensible Luna. She's not going to let any of our servants get caught up in trying to get
close to her. She would hate to have their painful deaths on her conscious."
"I'll feast on their insides," Ares promised. "No one touches you without my permission."
I shivered at the darkness of his tone. "I won't let anyone close, but that still doesn't tell me what I
should be doing."
"Relax," Javier offered with a wink. "You did such a good job taking care of us these last couple of
days, I dare say you've earned yourself a day of recovery. Just sleep and wait for us to get back."
"Just don't get too comfortable," Bo added with a smirk. "Because once I get back, I want to tie you
down and use some of my more fun toys on you." He bit his lip. "When the electricity plays through
you, I'll be able to feel it myself through our new bond. It's going to be the fucking best."
"If I say you can," Zale snapped at the two of them. "I'll still bein the pack, but it's important I investigate
what's going on inside it. When I unleash the powers afforded to me as Prime, we'll be pushing our
boundary, taking over much of the territory you traveled over. The smaller packs aren't going to like it,
but we don't give a flying fuck what they think."
He could expand his powers? I had to admit. I wanted to see all the abilities a Prime had. Surely it had
to be more than just bluster and bragging he'd shown me so far.
"Besides," Zale continued. "When we do get back and I've made sure our territory is safe, we've got
something else to get to work on."
"What's that?" I questioned. Was there another pack he wanted to explore?
Zale's dark chuckle caught me by surprise and his hand slipped around my middle, rubbing my
stomach. "Once our Kingdom is secure, it's my Luna's mission to give birth to strong healthy pups. Our
warriors and future rules will come from you."
"That's not fair," Bo whined. "Come on, Zale. Give us some time with her before you get her all knocked
up. I can't do nearly as many fun things if you start with that. At least give me a month to really have
some fun. I want to make her body dance." He glanced over at Javier. "Tell him!"
"I hate to agree with Bo, but he's right. You can't possibly be thinking of taking our treat away from us
so soon after granting her to us," Javier whined, nipping at Zale's chin. "Please?"
"Fine," Zale growled. "But only because I want to see her brought to her knees by some of them ore fun
toys you possess, Bo, but it'll only be an extra week. Then the breeding will start in earnest."
I kept the smile on my lips and somehow kept the beast from inside finding out about my sudden panic.
Breeding? There was no fucking way I was letting that happen, not ever again.
