Chapter Two - She can't do it again

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.

His sudden comment startled me, instantly making me ascend. My ashen gray wings fanned out, as I spun around to face him. I just caught a glimpse of Marik hopping backwards on one foot. When he spoke out, he was in the process of pulling his boxers off. I squealed at the sight, quickly trying to cover my eyes with my hands, and as I did, I pulled my wings in to wrap them around myself.

"Arrggghh shit!" Marik screamed out.

My new wings were a lot larger than I was used to and they'd clipped him, while I tried to use them as a shield. I instantly opened them up again, only to gasp as I saw Marik's sock-covered feet exit out of the window.

"Oh my God, Marik!"

I sprinted to the window and tried to grab his foot. With my extra speed, I did actually manage to grip ahold of his foot, but within seconds, all that was left in my hand was his crisp white sock. I turned away when I heard the thud of Marik's body hit the ground below us.

"I'm okay," he called up pretty quickly.

I placed my hands on the ledge of the window seal as I peered out, scared to look what mess he was in. I burst out laughing. I couldn't help it, the site that greeted me, was hilarious. He was sprawled out, face-first on the ground, with his bare ass completely on show, his boxers around his ankles and only one sock on. I quickly ducked back into the room when the pack ran out to check on him. I was laughing so hard that I collapsed to the floor.

"Well, that went well," Traian said sarcastically, making me laugh even harder.

I looked up at him with tears streaming down my face. He was sitting on the bed, with his head forward, pinching his nose. When he glanced over at me, he couldn't help but laugh along with me. I stood up as my giggles began to ease and made my way over to him. I descended and pushed gently on his shoulder, making him sit up straight. He moved back on the bed slightly, when I placed my knee beside his hip. I pulled up the other knee so I could straddle him.

Holding his face, I smashed my lips onto his, just like I had planned to do in the first place. His lips moved around mine like they had been kissing me for years. It was strange how perfect the kiss was. It was like he had anticipated my every move. I stopped kissing him and pulled away, and while staring into his confused eyes, I asked,

"Can you not do that?" He tilted his head slightly so I replied in my mind, “listen to my thoughts while we kiss. It's weird. You're not supposed to know what I'm going to do, until I do it.”

His lips curled into a smile, and as he leaned in for another kiss, I quickly shoved my hand in his face, smooshing his lips. I made sure I'd opened my fingers enough to avoid his nose. He peered through my fingers, and his shocked expression made me chuckle.

“Sorry, Tray, you killed the moment,” I thought to myself, thinking that he would be listening, but he didn't reply or react, he just sat there, face squished, peering at me through my fingers.

"So now you turn it off?" I said with an eye roll.

"Huh?" he replied.

I pulled myself up and got off of the bed. I heard him groan while I put on my underwear, a pair of black leggings, and a grey tank top. I glanced over at him before I left, and said,

"The moment is gone, maybe we can try this another time. I'll meet you downstairs once that's gone down," I pointed towards his erection.

He groaned again, picked up a pillow and pushed it into his face. I shook my head and left the room. I could hear him scream into the pillow as I walked down the stairs, and I couldn't help but laugh. I reached the bottom of the stairs and made my way into the living room. Marik was laying on the couch. I stared at him with an eyebrow raised and he just winked back at me with a cheeky grin. With a flush of my cheeks, I turned toward the glass doors and made my way outside. I could hear the pack hunting in the woods, but Savanah and Finn had stayed behind. They were sat on the loungers and had one empty between them.

"We saved you a seat. There's coffee here too, and some lunch," Savanah said without even turning around.

"Thank you, Savanah."

I sat down on the lounger and picked my coffee up from the floor. I glanced over at Finn and he instantly looked away.

"You need to look at me sometime, Finn," I snapped with an eye roll. I was fed up of him avoiding me, he needed to get over his damn self.

He sighed heavily, and to my surprise, rather than reply to me, he got up and strolled away. I turned my head to watch as he made his way into the cabin. Turning back around, I brought my cup to my lips and growled lightly into my coffee as I took a sip.

"Just give him some time Freya. He's struggling with your transition. He is worried that you're going to end up like Kali," Savanah explained in a calm voice.

I sighed gently while placing my coffee onto the floor.

"I'm not turning into Kali. I'll always be me, I'm sure of it."

"I know this, but he had to watch Kali kill his Fianna. That's a moment he can never un-see. Because you look very similar to your aunt, he's struggling the most with your change." She placed a reassuring hand on my arm and gave it a squeeze.

"I need to talk to Selene, have you seen her?" I asked as I leaned back on the lounger.

"Yeah, she shifted and ran off into the woods to join the hunt..."

She paused for a moment, stood up and edged toward the pool. I shot up when her head titled back and she let out an almighty shriek, sending a bright white beam into the sky as she levitated into the air.

"Savanah? What's wrong?" I screeched while running over to her. I grabbed her hand and quickly ducked as her wings flew out, completing her ascension. slowly spinning around to face me, she began to speak,

"The children. All those precious children. She can’t do it again..."

Her words were almost a cry, she had so much emotion in her voice. She gently placed her feet on the floor before putting her hands on either side of my head. I screamed out as visions of thousands of children flashed before my eyes. Each one tortured and tormented until they unleashed their powers. Tears began to stream down my face when I saw the children with weak powers being drained of their blood, then thrown to the floor like trash. I watched as a white-haired woman sank her teeth into another frightened child. When the child had become limp, she whipped her head back, making me inhale in shock. Selene dragged her arm across her face, wiping the poor child's blood from her lips, before dropping him to the floor.

When Savanah removed her hands from my head, I fell to my knees and sobbed. I was overcome with emotion. I could feel the pain and fear from every one of those children. I broke down into my hands, and all I wanted to do was curl up into a ball. Savanah crouched down, lifted my chin, and gazed into my eyes. With her bright white eyes staring into mine, a warm and calming feeling washed over me, and my tears began to dry. She smiled softly while she swept her thumb across my cheek, catching one of the last fallen tears.

"We need to save the children," she said in a voice I hadn't heard before, it was deeper than normal and it echoed slightly, like we were inside a bubble all of our own. Any other noise was gone, and all I could hear was her.

"How? That was such a long time ago, those children are long dead."

She floated her hands up to my temples again, making my head shoot back as new visions invaded my mind. I could see two young teens. A boy and a girl, around sixteen or seventeen years old. They were huddled together, crouched down behind a large rock. The boy had his arms wrapped around the girl, and one of his hands was placed over her mouth, clearly trying to stifle her screams. They looked petrified, and I could see exactly why. Approaching them was an enormous white Lycan, and it looked about ready to rip them apart.

When Savanah removed her hands, I fell forward, slamming my palms onto the ground. I inhaled deeply while my rage built, making my body shake with adrenaline. I clenched my fists and slammed them into the ground while letting out a ferocious growl.

"Go!" Savanah screamed out, and as soon as the words left her lips, I shifted and took off towards the woods. My speed hitting an all new level as my vampire abilities came into play.
