Chapter 12
His bite causes my body to flood with warmth as his teeth sink. into me deeply. My mouth waters in anticipation of tasting him as well, but first, I want to savor the burn of desire as it seeps down into my soul and causes every nerve ending to stir to life. Only then do I open my mouth and sink my own sharp canines into his mark. I feel his body jerk and his cock grow even more. I know he's about to knot me and pump me full of his seed. The thought sends my body into a higher state of arousal and I find myself coming for him once more.
His arms tighten around me as we drink from each other and just as I start to come back to myself, he pounds into me even harder, and I feel it as he releases himself deep inside of me. His climax sends me back into another one, and we ride the euphoric wave together as one.
He drops down to his back and I follow, laying on top of him as we wait for his knot to shrink. I can feel his rapid heartbeat as I press my ear to his chest and relax my body. I enjoy laying here like this in the aftermath of our love making while our bodies are stuck together.
"That, my Queen, was phenomenal!" Declan chuckles and rubs my back.
"You weren't so bad yourself, Consort." I giggle as he tickles my side as payback for the name.
"Oh!" I can't jerk around too much otherwise, his knot will hit against places, sending me in another state of arousal.
"Keep still then." He orders playfully.
Dividing into pages now
"Declan," my mind wanders to a completely different subject, "I want, no I need to go over my mother's notes tomorrow. I need to learn what I can do in order to keep this pack and our children safe."
He kisses the top of my head, "Then let's do that. I will be going back to Storm River for a while again tomorrow afternoon, but we can work on your stuff in the morning."
I nod in agreement, "Also, I think we need to talk with the Elders, now that they are our council. I want a trial to take place for the prisoners. I don't want to be the judge, jury, and executioner. We should do it the way the humans do it."
"I think that is a good idea, babe. I will send off an email to the Elders, asking them what their thoughts are on the matter. I'm sure they will agree with you."
"Hm, that will be the first..." I say as I begin to drift off to sleep.
"Again! You have to keep trying Quinn." Declan encourages as I try to concentrate while trying to light a fire, but it just isn't working.
"Maybe I'm just trying too hard. Let's try one of the other ones for a bit." I say, hoping that I get at least one other cool power aside. from reading people when it chooses to do so.
"Well, let's just take a moment to think here," my mate states, "What were you doing when you used your other power yesterday morning?"
I sigh heavily, "I wasn't doing anything except just thinking about how I needed to find out who he was and where he came from."
"Okay! Now we are getting somewhere! Just look at this candle and think about how you want it lit." He instructs.
I huff and then concentrate on the candle that we have sitting on a little makeshift table made from an upside down recycling bin. I try closing my eyes first and when nothing happens, I try with them. open. Frustration takes hold and I throw up my hands.
"I quit! I obviously don't have that power, so can we move on?"
"I think you're trying too hard, babe." He stands with his hands on his hips, looking all hot as hell like usual.
"How else am I supposed to do it, just say it nicely or what?" I walk up to it and bend down in front of it, "Candle, light." I say sweetly, and ! jump back as a flame dances to life, "Holy shit! I did it! Oh, my Goddess...I did it!" I screech and then jump up and down.
Declan comes and picks me up, swinging me around in a circle, full of excitement, "That's my girl! See, I knew you could do it!"
