Seventy
Silas POV
Waking to find her gone my heart was pounding in my chest, my eyes instantly going to my hand and
looking at the promise mark, my skin charred and black from where she broke the blood promise. I still
remember when she stepped out of the borders, the tingling sensation that moved over my palm. I
initially thought I slept on it funny and gave myself pins and needles until it started burning and I knew
she left me. Left the safety of the kingdom never have I felt fear like that. She was completely unaware
of what resided beyond those gates.
Looking at my hand though, I felt no pain. So, I knew she was in the castle somewhere or at least
within the kingdom. Matitus rolling into me, his hand searching for something as he threw it over me
before pulling me against him and realising my skin is a lot hotter than hers. Matitus sits up in one swift
motion instantly alert.
“Where is she?” He says, looking around the room.
“She is still here” I tell him. One thing Elora doesn’t realise, is she made a blood promise which won’t
go away for as long as we live, it will just inflict pain on the one they promised to, every time they break
it.
Matitus wriggles closer putting his head on my chest, Dragus snoring beside him so loudly I was almost
tempted to smother him just to shut him up. Instead, I relish my time with my mate, running my fingers
through his hair. They hardly let me touch them anymore, and I know its because of what I did, what I
put her through, so for now I would just enjoy my time with them.
“You did the right thing” Matitus tells me.
“you should have done it earlier, but you eventually did it” He says, sitting up on his elbow and looking
at me. I could see something behind his eyes as they reflected back at me. He almost looked happy for
once, instead of his mind clouded with the shadows of the past.
“You and Dragus were in a good mood last night considering everything that happened” I tell him. His
lips turn up in a smile.
“Because we are now, now that you have accepted her”
“I never didn’t accept her, she is just-” Matitus scoffs, his eyebrow raising at my words and I can’t help
the corners of my lips turning up slightly trying to repress myself from smiling.
“Stubborn like you” Matitus offers. I shake my head.
“So, are you going to tell me what got you two into such a good mood?” I ask ignoring his statement.
“You’ll find out soon enough”
“What did you do?” I ask.
“Nothing, it’s what you did, and I am not giving away anything, not until I am positive” Dragus suddenly
moves yawning and sitting up, I feel alarm hit me when he looks across at us.
“She is still here” I tell him knowing that is what he was about to ask, and he lets out a breath before
flopping back down on the bed again and chucking and arm across his face blocking out the light.
“Ah I don’t want to get up” Dragus groans. I chuckle at him.
“We have work to do, besides it’s your own fault you shouldn’t have been up all-night fornicating” I tell
him.
“Like you didn’t enjoy it” He retorts. Suddenly I get hit with Elora’s feelings, embarrassment hitting me
before I hear what sounds like someone squeal and laughter. Getting up, I walk outside the door
peering over the landing to the floor below. To see Dakari running down the corridor with Elora and
Abigail chasing after him in fits of giggles. Matitus comes over leaning over and looking too.
“What’s happening?” He asks, just as Marian comes rushing out from god knows where a tea towel in
hand chasing after them yelling profanities telling them what rotten girls are.
I laugh making Marian look up before she averts her eyes stopping. “Sorry my lords” She calls out but
Matitus chuckles. “I don’t know what you have been up to but its good to hear laughter in this dark
place” Matitus answers.
“Sorry, my lord” She answers but not looking up. Elora suddenly walks out from underneath the landing
we are on looking up at us, Abigail too before she snorts her face turning crimson. Elora elbows her.
“It’s alright Marian, I know you haven’t seen one in a while” Abigail chuckles and Marian smacks both of
them with the tea towel making them laugh. Dakari walks out and Matitus and I look at each other
trying to figure out what’s so funny.
“Free balling it now bro, watch out you will give some of these old birds a heart attack” He says before
we realise our mistake. Elora places her hand over Abigail’s eyes before we look down to realise, we
were still naked. Completely forgetting when we walked out to see what was going on.
Matitus chuckles not caring in the least instead jiggling his bits. “Oh, for Pete’s sake as everyone
around here lost their marbles” Marian says, turning and walking off. I quickly duck into the room
chucking on some shorts. Matitus walks in behind me doing the same, while Dragus remained in bed.
“Get up” I tell him, and he rolls over onto his stomach pulling the pillow over his head drowning us out.
Matitus chuckles walking over and ripping the covers off him, and he mutters some curses at him.
“Now Dragus” Matitus warns him.
“And what are you going to do spank me like Elora” He spits at him. Matitus makes a noise in the back
of his throat.
“What is it with everyone today, starting to think Elora becoming a bad influence on everyone, talking
back, People making eye contact and now even Dragus has an attitude” Matitus says shaking his
head.
“Things are definitely changing around here, and I am not sure I like it” I mutter with a smile.
Dakari suddenly walks in the room sniffing the air slightly and wrinkly his nose. “The girls want to know
if they can go to the greenhouses and help someone named Victor” Dakari announces.
“They sent you to ask permission” I ask.
“No, pretty sure they sent me as a distraction, I heard them duck out the moment I stepped foot on the
stairs”
“See bad influence” Matitus mutters.
‘So, what happened with you and Abigail?” Matitus asks wriggling his eyebrows.
“I marked her; her daughter is a little strange, cute but strange”
Elora’s POV
Abigail and I managed to escape the castle to the greenhouses, using Dakari as a distraction. One of
the cooks said that Victor needed help so we thought we would go offer a helping hand. We spent most
of the morning hanging herbs to dry out. Victor was busying compounding ingredients and bottling
them to stock the pharmacy.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
I was just getting ready to pull down some dried herbs using the step ladder when I felt hands move
over my hips and under my shirt. Looking down, I see Matitus standing behind me a devilish grin on his
face.
“Are you hiding from us little one” He says.
“No, just helping Victor” I tell him grabbing down the bundle of dried plants and dropping them in the
basket on the bench.
“Victor said he doesn’t need you anymore” Matitus says, his hands sliding up higher brushing my
stomach. I look over my shoulder and Victor gives me a nod and I go to step down off the ladder only
for Matitus to pull me against him and scooping my legs out from under me.
“Put me down” I whisper yell.
“Not a chance” He says, turning on heels and carrying me from the greenhouse.
“People are staring Matitus” I argue but he ignores me instead spinning me in his arms to face him and
wrapping my legs around his waist.
“Where are you taking me?” I groan, just as I see Dakari walk out of the castle heading toward the
greenhouses where Abigail was left behind.
“Abbie out there still?”
“Yes, third greenhouse” I tell him, and he rushes off to find her.
“Can you put me down please” I ask again when I see the castle doors getting closer. Matitus doesn’t
put me down instead opening the door and walking into the library, using his foot to kick the door
closed behind him.
“What are we-” I don’t get to finish when his lips were suddenly on mine and I find myself on top of the
new desk which was still covered in plastic.
“Matitus” I screech, when his lips leave mine, going to my neck.
“Matitus someone will walk in” Geez what has got into him? I wonder, as he ignores me peeling my
coat off and pushing my pants down. His lips going to my mark as he sucks on it while undressing me
until I was only left in my bra the rest of me completely bare.
Matitus suddenly drops to his knees in front of the desk. I try to hop up, to escape when his hand
pushes me back down before I feel his breath on my core as he pulls me to the end of the desk
pushing my legs further apart before feeling his tongue flick out, licking my slit before he sucks my clit
into his mouth.
“Still want me to stop little one” He asks, as I grip his hair. I grind my hips against his face, and he
chuckles before continuing, after a few minutes I no longer care if anyone walks in because all I can
think about his where his face currently is, and the feeling building inside me.
My stomach tightening as he shoves his fingers inside me, I hiss at the burning pain. I was still sore,
very sore but the pain becoming forgotten as he sped up, and I could feel myself getting closer and
closer to the edge. My grip on his hair tightening as I move my hips against his hot mouth before
crashing over, my walls fluttering around his fingers as I ride out my orgasm, leaving me breathless and
my heart racing. Matitus stands up undoing his belt a wicked smile creeping onto his face as he leans
over the desk, kissing me. I could taste myself on his tongue as our tongues collided before he
suddenly pulled me towards him letting me stand, only to spin me around and bend me over the desk.
His hands going to my hips as he pulls me towards him before he positions himself at my entrance.
Sliding in effortlessly, from the moisture of my orgasm a few seconds ago. He buries his cock in me
before pulling out and slamming back in, my hips hitting the edge of the desk painfully as he pounds
into me when I hear the door click and try to stand. Matitus hand goes to my shoulder shoving me back
down.
“It’s only Dragus” He says before I feel fingertips under my chin, pulling my face up. I see Dragus, his
face inches from mine before he kisses me, his tongue hungrily devouring every inch of my mouth,
Matitus movements becoming jerky as he thrusts in harder making me gasp before stilling, he slaps my
ass before pulling my head back by my ponytail wrapping it around his hand, his lips below my ear.
“Dragus turn now” He says, kissing my cheek before I feel him pull out of me. Dragus undoes his belt
using it to tie my hands before securing it to the front of the desk, making me have to stretch to relieve
the pressure on my shoulders before he walks around the desk. I feel his hands trail across my back
making me shiver.
I twist, trying to look behind me when I feel warm fingers move into my bra and twist my nipple harshly
making me cry out, rolling it between their fingers only to look up and see it was Matitus who was
watching.
“Stay still” He says, and I huff turning back my hands going purple from the loss of circulation to my
hands. Dragus uses his foot tapping my feet which were barely on the ground.
“Legs apart” and I wriggle as much as I can from this position before feeling his hand come down on
my ass hard, the stinging slap making me shudder and hiss.
“God, I love the sounds she makes” Dragus murmurs, before moving between my legs and I feel the
head of his cock as he lines it up with my throbbing core before thrusting in. His hands gripping my ass
as he pulls my cheeks apart watching himself slip in and out of me, making me moan loudly from the
friction building up as he thrusts become more urgent. I feel his fingers tracing my ass crack before I
feel his thumb shove inside me, making me squirm before relaxing.
My orgasm building as he continues to hit that spot inside me making my toes curl when I feel myself
hit my brink, before exploding around his cock. My walls clenching him, and his movements become
jerky before he stills, my pussy milking his cock as it spasms around him while I ride out my own
orgasm leaving me covered in a sheen of sweat and breathless. I feel Matitus fiddling with the belt
around my wrists just as I feel Dragus pull out of me and can hear him pulling up his pants.
If I wasn’t sore before I definitely am now, my inside feeling like they have been rubbed raw. My wrists
killing as I feel my blood rush to them regaining circulation. Turning around, Dragus was picking up my
clothes before Matitus kneels in front of me helping me step into my pants.
Dragus hands me my shirt before kissing my swollen lips. I get dressed just as the door opens and
Silas pops his head in.
“Damn missed all the fun” He says sniffing the air.
“Come on, lunch is done and after we are going flying” He says.
“Flying?”
“Don’t you think it’s about time you try out those new wings?” He asks. I shake my head worried, and
not only that I didn’t know how to make them come out again or if I could.
“Stop stressing, eat first, worry later” He says, giving me a wink and reaching his hand out to me. I
place mine in his, letting him drag me out. I just wanted to go take a nap but food sounds better, I was
starving.
