~Tamia~
I thought the days would go by slowly, but they didn't. They moved fast. Sylvester and I had little time together because we had to train.
Even though we weren't going to Gad, the women had to be battle ready. Claudia was excluded from the training because she had too much work to do. Her dark circle were pronounced, and she looked like someone that would crack any moment. The surprising part was she always managed to keep it together. I admired her strength. I would have been in knots by now if I were in her shoes.
Stephanie had linked to inform me that Jake had finally woken up. I was happy for her and glad we won't say goodbye as we thought, but the coming battle made it impossible for me to celebrate. Sylvester had told me they would be leaving in the night the following day. After explaining his reason, I accepted it.
Amelia and Susan arrived in the afternoon, and I was surprised Gezel had come with them. Sylvester was surprised, too, but I figured Amelia or Leo might have talked her out of going to the battle.
I did not mention it, but I was glad we would have a female alpha with us.
Gezel was battle-ready, so it increased our chances of survival. Some of us might have to use the serum, except Susan, who was sick; Katya and Avery, who were pregnant and Amelia, who did not need it.
Honestly, I wasn't looking forward to it and somehow hoped Yuri would not bother to attack the estate.
Once Amelia, Susan and Gezel had settled in, I decided to retire to the bedroom to catch some sleep. Sylvester joined me.
We need the rest more than anything. We had spent two days reviewing our escape plan and how we would run away if anything went wrong.
As much as I hated to think of it and would love to hold on to the fact that they would return home no matter what, there was a possibility they won't, and there was a possibility we have to carry on without them.
There was a tunnel we would use to escape into the woods where a van would be waiting, fully armoured with ammunition and only our mates and we knew of it.
We did not want any surprises if it came to it.
Although we would have preferred to live in denial, there was no room for it.
As leaders, we had to accept and face reality.
I had planned a large dinner for all of us. So we can be merry before tomorrow when they will finally depart.
I knew the event would not be jovial, but I had to try. Too bad Leo, Devin, Alexei and Clay would not be a part of it. I wish them the best.
"Join me in the bathroom, green eyes," Sylvester said, standing by the bathroom door, and I smiled at him. His confidence remained, and he was optimistic that we would win.
I loved his spirit because it lifted me up and made me optimistically look into the future.
He had run the water and scented the bath with Lavender salt.
It was calming, and I got in to sit between his legs. He held on to my body and breathed me in.
"By this time in three days, I will be home with you, Green-eyes," he said with a definite tone and kissed his mark on my neck.
"We would have nothing to worry about again, and the peace we longed for would finally be ours," He said, caressing my body gently and kissing my neck.
"Yes," Was all I could manage, with his arms wrapped around me, engulfed by his scent and overtaken by his love.
All I could do was remember to breathe.
I wasn't sure the bathtub was the best place for this because my body needed more than what it was getting at the moment. Kaira purred in my head, wanting Sylvester to do more.
Sylvester understood my body language and reached between my legs from behind me. Understanding my needs, he rubbed my clit while he nibbled and sucked the sensitive parts of my neck.
He had turned me into a moaning mess. I felt his other hand squeeze my breast and caress the nipple. I was coming apart, and he didn't relent.
I was left at the mercy of his touch.
He rubbed, not too hard and not too soft, just the right amount of pressure needed to edge me close to my release. His mouth and tongue left cool sensitive trails of licks and kisses on my neck to my shoulder, and his hands kneaded my breast gently.
My release came, and a loud moan escaped my lips. He did not stop what he was doing, and I began to shake.
My walls clenched, wanting him inside me badly.
The need drove me strongly.
I broke away from his body and straddled him, facing him and guiding his cock to my entrance. His eyes were jet black. His need was the same as mine, and as I lowered myself on him, he pulled me to his body. Neither wanted space between us, which was precisely what he was doing. Eliminating the distance between us.
I rode his cock, and he guided my body gently until we both climaxed. Sylvester held me in the bath for a bit until it was time to dress up and head to Dinner.
I was surprised to find everyone laughing and talking in the dining hall. Even Claudia's dark circles were gone. It was as if a weight had been lifted.
