My Not Yet Mate

Chapter 121

Epilogue

She waved her hand at the bartender. “Another round.” She glanced around the gloomy bar. “ANOTHER ROUND FOR EVERYONE!”

Cheers went up all around. She tapped her fingers on the bar as she waited agitatedly for the three shots to be poured. He set them in front of her and she lifted one to her mouth as a shadow fell over her. She inhaled and the smell of a cat filled her nose. She lifted her lips in a snarl.

“What do you want, tiger?”

A tall, dark haired man with honey amber colored eyes leaned against the bar with his ankles crossed. He smirked as she downed the shots and ordered another round for the entire bar.

“Charge it to my father.”

The man next to her laughed. “Your mother charged stuff to Deegan, too.”

She glared at him. “What do you know about my parents?”

He shrugged. “Enough, princess.”

“I’m not a princess.” She waved to the bartender. “Another round.”

He put & shots in front of her and she downed the first two, before the man covered the next one and pushed it back down on the counter.

“Does your father know you are in this seedy joint getting wasted?”

She rolled her eyes and grabbed another one. She swallowed it and flipped him off.

“Who even are you?”

He took the rest of her shots. “My name is Amerald.”

“And your tiger?”

Saber.”

“Saber? Nope, never heard of you”

“I used to work for your father. Well, technically I still do. I was one of the people searching for your mother. When she was found, my undercover identity became my real one. I travel around the world and take in strays nobody wants.” He looked at her out of the corner of his eye. “And you my dear, look like you are very lost.” He reached out and pulled her shirt down a little to see Joshua’s temporary mark that still graced her skin. “Very lost indeed.”

She jerked her shirt up. “I’m not a stray. I have a home.”

He raised two fingers and the bartender brought more shots over. He handed her one and clinked his against hers.

“Bottoms up, beautiful.”

He put two fingers under her glass and tipped it up. He took his own, before smiling at her.

“You may have a home, but do you want to go back to it?” His eyes swept over her body, taking in her short leather skirt and leather corset top. He lifted his hand to wipe her cheek. “You’ve either been crying or just really shitty at makeup. Considering who your mom and aunts are, I would bet my life on crying.”

She turned her face away from him. “Don’t act like you know me,”

He chuckled he ordered two more shots. He swallowed his and she swirled hers around in her mouth, before jumping to her feet.

“What the fuck is this? Did you give me water?”

Amerald chuckled again. “He was following my orders.”

Epilogue

She spun on him angrily to jab her finger into his chest. “You asshole. Who are you to make an order like that? I’M GOING TO BE THE QUEEN OF VAMPIRES AND YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO TRY TO CONTROL ME?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!”

He raised his eyebrow at her. “You can’t run from your mate, Lucy. Not if you still love him.”

Her shoulders slumped. “Then tell me, oh mighty wizard man, what the hell do I do to get a few minutes of forgetting he exists?”

“One, I’m not a wizard. I’m a tiger. Two, I have watched you these last few days and have come to the decision that you can fulfill the last role that I need in my band of misfits.”

She folded her arms across her chest. “And what role is that?”

“I need an old lady.”

She frowned. “I’m not old.”

He laughed. “An old lady can be young. It’s more of a title, a wife of sorts. My crew needs a protector, a mother figure and that aura of yours can do

that.”

“And tell me why I should agree to this?”

“Because I will protect you and will always have your back.” He grinned mischievously. “Besides, I have two pairs of interesting mates in my group that I know you will never come across again in your life.” He shrugged. “I’m counting on that to get you to agree.”

“What are they?”

“Well, I have a panther, Ashley, who’s mated to a mouse.” His grin grew bigger. “Then I have a clownfish shifter mated to a dragon. She almost ate him.”

Lucy’s mouth dropped open. “No way.”

He nodded. “Scouts honor.”

“Were you a scout?”

“Not a day in my life,” he laughed.

died him for a moment. “If I agree to be your old lady, does that include marking each other and having sex?”

“I suppose it could,” he said slowly. “But it is not a requirement.”

She put her hands on his hips and nodded. “Take me to meet these children of mine.”

He laughed and pointed to the door. “Let’s go.”

She marched out of the bar and looked around at the bikes out front. Her eyes fell on a well taken care of, newly painted harley. She pointed at it.

“That’s yours?”

He nodded as he leaned against the post to watch her circle it. She ran her fingers over the handlebars.

“So, am I allowed to touch your bike?”

“I’m going to teach you how to ride.”

“You are?”

He nodded. “And I’ll buy

She smiled at him. “I’d like that.”

She climbed on the bike faci

“Come on.”

Epilogue

He slowly sauntered over to the bike. “You’re facing the wrong way.”

She raised an eyebrow. “Am I really though?”

His eyes moved over her body. “What are you doing, princess?,” he growled.

“Cashing in on my perks.”

He straddled the bike and she scooted closer to him to grind against him. She rubbed him through his jeans, before swallowing hard as she fumbled with his pants to pull his cock out. He filled her hand and she gulped again.

“Goddess, please, tell me you’re a shower and not a grower.”

He kicked the stand up and winked at her as he started the bike. She stroked him a little and her eyes widened when he got hard.

“Fuck. This might have been a bad idea.”

“Tell me, Little Lucy, are you a virgin?”

“Good.”

He spread her legs and pulled her lower on the bike to let his tip enter her. Her eyes closed and she bit her lip. He pushed into her a little more and she whimpered.

“Are you sure you’re not a virgin? You feel like one?”

She sighed. “I’ve only had sex once with my mate.”

He growled and she trembled as she opened her eyes. He leaned down to lo

look deep into her eyes.

He pulled her down further and slid his entire length into her. She lifted her lips to kiss him, but he turned his head to kiss down her neck.

“We don’t kiss, Lucy. That is intimate.”

“Sex is intimate,” she argued.

“Not like kissing” He gently bit down into her neck. “Maybe one day we will kiss, but not yet,”

“Okay,” she murmured shyly.

“Put your legs around my waist!,” he suddenly ordered.

She linked her ankles behind him. He pulled her up to tuck her face into his neck, He tied her long platinum blonde hair up in a tight knot, before bending her backwards to lay flat on the bike with her head on the handlebars. He tilted her hips up so he could sink deeper into her as he leaned over her to rev the engine up.

“Lucy, have you shifted?”

“Wouldn’t you like to know,”

He laughed as he thrust into her a

again. “If we fall, you’re gonna need your dragon.”

She put her hand on his chest and let energy flow into him.

“I think I’ll be okay, tiger boy, if that’s even what you really are.”

He put his mouth against her ear and his warm breath caressed her skin, making her even more aroused.

“I’m going to s

show you exactly what kind of tiger I am,” he growled, sending another shiver of excitement through her. “Now, ride me while we ride.”
