The Call of War: The Watchers Chronicles: Book One

by Patricia Halladay

  “Hmm, oh shit what time is it?” Eli asks when he sees Matthias.

  “It’s 11:08 am on Saturday. You guys have been asleep for a while, but that is to be expected. Is Tanner feeling better?” Matthias ask helping Eli get up without falling out of bed.

  “Yea, we talked yesterday when Ianna woke up at 2:10 in the afternoon. Seems Hades and Persephone beat us too it, but it still helped Tanner feel better knowing she didn’t hate him or want him dead.” He answers. I giggle at the thought of kicking Tanner’s ass and realize now it would be an unfair fight for him. I get out of bed and walk to the bathroom.

  “Hey Tanner, get your ass out of bed dude! We overslept by like a lot! Kane is going to beat the hell out of us.” Eli says, causing Tanner to jump out of bed. I watch as he lands on his ass before I close the bathroom door.

  “Wow, I feel better surprisingly. How do you feel Eli?” I hear Tanner ask.

  “Much better, and little miss sassy pants just went into the bathroom, so I would say she feels better too. We all needed the sleep. Come on, we need to report to Kane. Thank you Matthias for everything, after you’re done with Ianna send her down to us. We need to figure out this weapons mess. Please and Thank you.” Eli says, there is the sound of shaking hands, then a door opening and shutting. Guess the guys have left.

  “How are you feeling warrior? That was quite the scare you gave us.” Matthias says coming into the bathroom. Thank god I was done peeing! He turns on the shower to get it good and hot, before he starts stripping.

  “Much better after the blood, things were really sore and burning beforehand. Thank you for that too by the way.” I say. I walk over wrapping my arms around his ribs and give him a hug. I look up when I hear him purr in response and wraps his own arms around me.

  “Well now Mrs. Ianna Van Helsing what would you like to do after our shower?” He asks bending down to give me a kiss. I sink deep into Matthias as his tongue sweeps across my lips and slide into my mouth. Before he can pull back, I bite it gently and suck on it. “Fuck Ianna.” He growls, turning our kiss hungry and feverish.

  “Finish claiming your sexy ass and bind us forever.” I say after I pull away. I start kissing his neck, while he strips me. Soon I feel hot water streaming down my back as Matthias walks further into the shower. He turns the nozzle head so its pointing at the wall, and then puts me against it with my legs wrapped around his body. Just as I feel him drive his harden cock into my core I bite down on his neck and feed. A strong guttural growl comes from Matthias as his thrusts become frenzied.

  “Oh fuck my little bride, you are so tight.” He keeps going as I finish claiming and feeding from him. “Fuck, I’m cumming!” He says, just as a heat spread in my body and I feel him jerk with release. He bites down on my neck too, only more tenderly but doesn’t feed long. The shower rinses away any remaining trace of blood from us claiming each other and as Matthias pulls from me he rest his head on mine.

  “Are you ok Matthias? You didn’t take as much as I would think needed in claiming each other.” I ask looking at my soul bound mate.

  “And I won’t not for at least the next nine months. You will need extra with carrying our little one.” Matthias says, and my eyes bug out of my head. “I would have needed to turn you soon anyways. Humans die when carrying a vampire child. The child will feed from their mother, kind of like some spiders, momma is the first meal the babies get to have.” He smiles more as I sit gaping at him.

  “When? How?” I ask still in shock. Matthias has grabbed shampoo and started to washing my hair.

  “I claimed you the night we were bonded, and I would say that is when I got you pregnant too. Might account for the mood swings and the sweet smell you carried for the last two and a half weeks also. Babe can you pass me your conditioner please?” He says and just keeps going with washing my hair like it’s a normal conversation.

  “Hey … what the … Oh fuck it!” I say causing Matthias to laugh.

  “That’s my girl! Talk with Meena, she will be better able to explain it. I know it was like 300 years ago but still she is the most experienced since she was in the same boat you are.” He says smiling bright at me.

  “Ok well before then can I eat someone please?? I am starving.” I ask giving Matthias big puppy eyes.

  “Yes we will get you fed, and after if you behave I will give you a treat I know you will love.” Matthias says. When he does his eye start to go black and he has this beautifully evil smile that does just all sorts of deliciously horny things to me.

  “Mhmm, well since you put it that way, can I please ride you again now. My pussy hurts and you cock needs to make it feel better!” I say with my eyes changing. The effect of lust is amazing, and I can see the changes through my eyes. I turn and climb the wall a bit to put me at a good height for him, and I hear him purr again.

  “Come up a little higher my bride and hang on, your King is going to please you to the point of breaking you.” He says, and I turn my head and notice he’s partially turned into his royal form. The excitement grew so fast that I practically run up the wall to where he wanted me and feel him drive his massive cock deep inside of me. “Fuck, you were tight before, but this is absolute fucking heaven!” He purrs as he thrust harder. The size difference was painful at first, but I got used to it really quick. The saying hung like a horse definitely applies to Matthias right now! Hell I think he could give a walrus a run.

  He wraps his massive, clawed hand around my throat and the other one grips around my hip. He brings the rest of his body close to mine to give support. I am panting hard, and each time my core stretches to receive his pleasurable punishing thrust I cum more. I am above and beyond orgasms, just like the kiss, one hasn’t even passed before the another is crashing throughout my body.

  “Fuck Aretha, I thought I would never get to have you!” Matthias groans. “Oh you’re going to like this so much my little bride.” He sneers and soon I feel his cock enlarge and harden as he cums hard. I feel a small prickling sensation along every muscle fiber that touches his cock.

  “Mhmm that feel amazing, what are you doing to me? I want to stay like this forever. Fuck me that feels good.” I say rocking my hips on his shaft. He is buried to the base and the prickling sensation is even on the outside where my pussy opens to take him in.

  “This needs to be done to tie our child to me. So we will be like this for hours, don’t worry I will feed you. I will fuck you hard as I watch you drain life from Marcus, how does that sound my beautiful little Queen?” He hisses in my ear, the spike in arousal causes Matthias to hiss as he cums to meet the demands of my sexually driven body.

  “Then get on it. I want more of your cock!” I say twisting my head under his chin to nip at it. I draw blood on purpose and lick it clean.

  “FUCK!” Matthias roars as I force yet another massive load of cum to erupt from him. As it finishes he is panting hard, and his hand has tightened around my neck. “Do that again!” He demands and I smile.

  “What? Do you mean this my King?” I ask as I nip again only this time I suck as the blood drips. It cause him to roar again in pleasure as more seed is released with power inside my pussy. He is hit with another wave immediately because I keep sucking just under his chin.

  “Aretha, fuck we need to stop. The more you do that the longer I am going to stay bonded to you and that could weaken you and the baby. You need to feed my queen.” He says sounding tired.

  “So this is why I was so tired after the first time we were together. It was because you claimed me.” I say pulling away slightly, but not before running my tongue along the bite wound.

  “Yes, come on. Out to bed, I will have blood brought up to you.” Matthias pants feeling yet another climax overtake his body. “Fuck, I am going to have a hard time not having my cock buried in your pussy!” He growls as he walks us out to the bed. Still in his royal form, he sits with me on his lap and covers us with the blankets. A few seconds later Meena and Vlad walk in bringing three girls in with
them. They are feeders, willing humans that let us feed from source. I know vampires don’t take much and never when in a blood thirst state. So this should be ok, I will need help though.

  “Ok so why does Ianna need three girls, one should be enough.” Vlad says, causing Matthias to hiss at him.

  “She is with child, so three is needed. Especially with the baby being a royal. You know better Uncle.” Matthias says. The three girls shriek and giggle, all three rush to sit with us.

  “A Royal Vampire baby!! That is so amazing! Hades and Persephone will enjoy having the little ones running around. How many do you plan to have?” Stephanie asks, she was pretty much raised here. Like me her parents abandoned her.

  “How far along are you? When will gender be known? Does it work like a human pregnancy?” Michelle asks. She wants to become a doctor for one of the supernatural factions. So she is always asking questions like that.

  “Congratulations your Highnesses, this is great news.” Daniella says, she moves first in front of me, laying with her back pressed to my front.

  “Wait!” Michelle yells, causing everyone to look at her. “She needs a shirt; we can’t let her catch a cold!” She says running over to Matthias’s closest and moments later coming out with a sweatshirt for me. Meena and Vlad both laugh, and Matthias just smiles at her concern. After putting the shirt on Michelle nods in approval.

  “Does she need a bib? You know most new vampires are messy like human babies.” Stephanie asks looking at us.

  “Oh god no, she has a good hold when drinking. Believe me.” Matthias chuckles. I smile at my soul and then turn back to Daniella.

  “Ready?” I ask and she gives me a nod. I move her hair and bring her as close as I can. I nip her neck, causing her to moan. I sink my elongated fangs in, and she moans again as I begin to drink. I take 5 large mouthfuls and pull away. Meena helps her up and gives her some blood to heal.

  “Now I understand.” I say looking at Matthias. He gives me a look of please do tell. “Why you were mad when you saw my wounds not healed from Marcus feeding from me. The fresh blood would be lost because it is stronger to help with healing.” I finish. I look at Vlad and Meena, both of them look like they are going to kill Marcus personally.

  “He never healed you after feeding?” Meena seethes. I shake my head no and it causes her to hiss loudly.

  “Aunt Meena don’t worry I did. He did it up until her 18th birthday. When she wasn’t his soul bound he didn’t take care of her like he should have. So I did.” Matthias says moving my hair and kissing my neck. It causes me to purr; Michelle does an awe sound and I hear the other two girls giggle.

  “Me next momma!” Stephanie comes and takes the same spot Daniella was moments ago. I do the same to her, I kiss her neck to cause a relaxation of muscles, so it doesn’t damage her neck before I bite and drink from her. I am starting to feel full, but I still need to take from Michelle.

  “My belly is getting full and starting to hurt a bit Matthias.” I say as Michelle helps Stephanie over to Vlad.

  “You still need more Ianna. From what I learned newly turned pregnant vampires need more than normal. You need more than you will when you have been a vampire for a bit and have another child. It’s to help your body build for the two lives in one. Don’t worry the feeling won’t last very long. We have had a few new pregnant vampire in the clinic, so it’s interesting to see how each one is different.” Michelle says sitting in front of me, both her and Stephanie have their hair up, so it makes less of a mess. I kiss Michelle’s neck and instead of relaxing she giggles and shrugs her shoulders to hide. “Just bite, otherwise it tickles too much, and I tense up.” She tells me. I wait for her to relax again and then I pounce, which causes her to giggle again but this time I already have my fangs in.

  “Sorry if that is going to hurt later.” I tell her when I release her. She gets up and wabbles over to Meena. Meena shakes her head with a smile.

  “She is always like that, only a few are able to feed from Michelle, she even giggles when we take from the wrist. She is better suited for the babies that we find without families.” Vlad says.

  “You mean to tell me some vampires are just as bad as humans?” I ask looking shocked at the Prince of Darkness. He nods and that just pisses me off.

  “Ok, I think we need to let them rest. I will send up elk blood for you Matthias. We will see you this afternoon ok? By the way congratulations on the news of the little one. Your mother will be thrilled, she and your father will be arriving tomorrow for the new Coven Leader to take over and for your coronation. ” Meena says, before bowing and then walking out. Vlad bows also before leaving and closing the door behind him.

  “What the hell was that all about?” I ask turning myself to straddle Matthias, and I didn’t have to get off him either.

  “Oh fuck that felt good babe!” He groans once I’m in better position.

  “You mean like this?” I whisper and start moving up and down his shaft.

  “Fuck Ianna, I’m cumming.” He hisses, I feel his release and the bonded goes from being loose to tight as hell again. “Fuck you little bitch, you did that on purpose!” Matthias growls with a sexy evil smile.

  “Shut up and fuck me like a good King does for his queen.” I hiss back. Matthias flips us and is slamming back into me. I bite down on his chest causing him to roar again as his orgasm slams through him with force.

  “Fuck you little whore! Do that again and see what you get!” He challenges, so I do. This time I bite the other side and it causes him to go full royal. He rips me as the massive cock still pounding me becomes even bigger and I am being forced to take it. I scream from the growth pain, but it doesn’t last as I am soon moaning and panting again. The power that comes with the explosion of cum causes me to black out from my own orgasm. In the darkness I feel the life of my baby getting stronger and the full binding completed between Matthias and I’s souls.

  Visits and Gifts …

  “Aretha. Come on and get up. General Octavian will have my ass if he thinks I killed you with drills and exercise.” I hear a voice says. I open my eyes, but I am not in our bedroom anymore, I am on the training field in Corinth.

  “Orion!” I yell when I see him and get up to run to him. When I get to him I jump and wrap my arms and legs around his body. “Oh thank the gods. I thought I lost you forever!” I cry into his shoulder. I feel him try and take my arms from his neck, but I hold on and grip tighter.

  “Oh my sweet love, they can never take me away from you. I have always come back for you and this time you will come home with me.” He says and I still hold tight as I feel him try again to take me off.

  “But I did lose you! You died and I had to live over three thousand years without you! It hurt so bad Orion!” I cry burying my nose in his neck to take as much of his scent I can. I feel him give up on trying to take me off his body and he sits with me in his lap. I finally pull back a little and I see him smiling at me. “Why are you smiling? It’s not funny Orion! I tried to be happy after they took you away and the gods killed my husband and baby! So this is not funny!” I yell and start hitting him in the chest.

  “Ianna.” He says, but I ignore him and keep pounding my anger at him for leaving into his chest “Ianna, please stop.” He ask. His voice has gotten deeper but again I don’t listen. I continue to cry and start to fight when he crabs my wrist. “IANNA STOP!” His voice booms, I am finally snapped from my pain, hurt, anger and loss that I notice Orion has changed. He is huge, with wings, long ass fangs and I look like a baby in his lap.

  “Matthias? Where is Orion? He left me again, didn’t he?” I start to cry and try to get up off Matthias’s lap, but he holds me still smiling.

  “Ianna, I never left you. I have always been with you, all you had to do was stop and look.” He says and I listen. I turn in his lap and watch as my lives play like a movie. In each life he points out when and where he was in my life. He looks the same but different.

  “Why do you look s
imilar in each life? I don’t understand.” I say turning to him.

  “Ianna, remember not long ago you asked me about my wings, growth spurt and saber tooth fangs?” He asks. I nod yes because I remember he said we would talk later about it. “I couldn’t look exactly the same or that would have given who I am away. I know Sasquatch gave a bit of it away but again you being you, it went right over this beautiful head of yours.” He snickers when I poke him.

  “It didn’t, I just haven’t been able to talk to him yet.” I say as I notice we are no longer at the training field in Corinth. We are in a much warmer place and truthfully it looks like some place a vampire would feel right at home in. The arena we are in reminds me of the one where Zoe was a gladiator, but the sand is a deep red color, and the stone is white. The seats resemble the Roman Colosseum, and it looks like the walls protecting the spectators are about 20 feet higher than normal. “Matthias, where are we?” I ask looking around.

  “You dear child are in the King’s Arena in the Kingdom of Greed in Hell or the Underworld, whichever you prefer.” Hades says walking over and plunking down.

  “So this is yours Lord Hades?” I ask looking around.

  “No this belongs to Matthias, in his family only male heirs can take the throne. No one has sat on this throne for a good fifteen hundred years. Matthias told his grandfather that his Queen was on the Mortal Plane, and he had to wait to bring her here. So he has been waiting for you to get your shit together, so he could turn you into a vampire to come here and rule with him.” Hades says giving me a soft punch to the shoulder.

  “Then what does that make you? You are Hades, Lucifer, or the Devil. Oh hell you are whatever you want to be called. That means you are the ruler of Hell right? Then how is Matthias the king?” I ask. I am totally confused on this so badly. Both Hades and Matthias laugh at me, but Matthias gives me a hug and kiss for being cute.

  “So if you truly think of it, each religion is made up of different parts of another. They have just been twisted to suit the needs of people in that time. So yes I am Hades, Lucifer, which by the way is the devil. So I have always been the same person, it’s just those under me that have changed. Matthias’s family are one of the 7 Kings of the Underworld or the 7 Deadly Sins. The original King of Greed was Matthias’s ancestor Mammon. It’s why so many have sought your weapons for their own personal greed because you are his Queen. Even though you are far from greedy, you still invoke it in others. Does it make sense kid?” Hades asks, which it kind of does and it kind of doesn’t, either way I get to be with him.
