Rolling me onto my front he lifts me by the hips so that my butt is in the air, I find myself moaning in pleasure in anticipation as he slowly teases me, driving me mad with want till I let out a groan.
“Please, now Ruk!” I plead.
“Please, what baby?”
“Take me NOW!” I scream as he enters me, not a gentle pushing, slowly until I get accustomed to him stretching me fully, but a hard, forceful thrust to the hilt, as if his animal has lost patience with him and wants to show him how it is done. His hands squeeze my breasts roughly and pinch at my sensitive nipple as a mind-blowing orgasm begins rippling through me. I feel the warmth of his mouth between my neck and shoulder, and a sharp pain piercing my skin as his canines break through my flesh, I let out a scream of momentary pain, then my orgasm wipes it out, feeling him swell inside me as he's about to come and we exploded together.
Walking down the stairs into the arms of Ruk, I feel like a princess. I thought I knew what happiness was when I was with Sallack, but I had only touched the surface, and the love I felt for Den, but there is no comparison to the love I hold for Ruk. What I have now, with Ruk, is the reason for my existence.
“Zara, we need to speak with you sweetie,” Dallah’s stressed tone reaches me.
Lifting my head out of the crook of Ruk’s neck, I slowly slip off him and stand with my back against him.
“It's bad news, right?” I ask with a sigh.
“Yeah...”
Scanning the kitchen table where Den, Sallack, Theo, Parrise, Mickey, Julian, Dallah, Angus all sit, my heart beats rapidly when I realize Dom is missing!
“Where is he?” I almost scream at them in a panic.
“Who?” Asks Ruk from behind me.
“Dom! Where’s Dom!” I shout again, and walk out of Ruk’s embrace to stand with Dallah, knowing she will not lie to me.
“I’m here,” Dom says walking out of the living room across from the kitchen.
“Fuck it you guys, why are you scaring me like that!” I tell them while I walk over to Dom and give him a hug, as the thought of something bad happening to him nearly gave me a heart attack.
“What’s wrong?” Dom asks me in a worried tone as he holds me at arm length to gaze at me intensely.
“She thought you bit the bullet!” Mickey tells him before he takes a huge bite out of his bacon roll.
“I didn’t see you at the table, and Dallah was telling me she had bad news. So next time there is bad news, make sure everyone is together before you go dropping those bloody words,” I tell her with a smirk, before I look back to Dom who is smiling also.
“Thanks babe,” Dom tells me before he kisses my forehead and takes a seat at the packed out table.
“Ok shoot!” I tell her with a raised brow, and try to act as if whatever the news is, it will not affect me in any way, even though I know it will.
“I think you should both sit with us,” She tells Ruk and me with a weak smile.
Walking back over to Ruk, I smile up at him and lace my arm around his waist instantly calming him as we stand and wait for Dallah to deliver the news.
“Word has gotten out that the Charmer is here in America, some men from the Dark Coven have already guessed that you are her, but most have no idea. We need to take you somewhere Zara, somewhere where you won’t be recognized.”
“No! I won’t hide!” I tell her in a raised voice.
“Just for a little while Zara, a year or two.”
“Ha! Dallah are you being serious? Why are you guys not speaking?” I ask the Brothers’, and turn my head to Ruk, who is gazing between the Brothers’, and I can already tell they are speaking telepathically, or they were before I interrupted.
“We all stick together, if they come we fight. We know that you worry for her Dallah, but have faith in us, we are all strong, we can take on these men,” Ruk tells her with pride.
“But she has been through too much already, I can’t watch this happen all over again, her getting beaten to death, tortured!” She asks him with a cry.
“Damn it Dallah, I am here! I know you are scared for me, but it is different now. I have Ruk! I know that he will give me the strength I need, and he is right, we are all strong,” I tell her gently and push my feelings of being complete now that I have Ruk at my side.
“Are you going to be mated?” She asks with a sparkle in her eye.
“Yeah, we are,” I tell her with a wink, and ever so slightly, I see a little smirk play on her lips.
“Really?” She asks in excitement as she makes her way over to us.
“Zara, is mine, and I hers, we will accept each other as mates on the next full moon,” Ruk tells her with a handsome grin, before he kisses my cheek tenderly.
Dallah quickly wipes the happy tear that falls down her cheek, as she smiles at us.
“Zara...I’m so happy for you sweetie. Ruk I swear to goddess if you make her sad, just one time I will hurt you so bad that...”
“Dallah! Calm down. I would never hurt Zara, surely you know that by now. She is my mate, and she will be treated like it in every way,” Ruk tells her truthfully.
“Ok, you better! Come here,” She tells him, as she wraps her arms around him and hugs him tightly, which he returns gracefully.
“Right, everyone sit down, let’s get plans underway,” Sallack tells us.
Taking a seat at the table, well my seat being Ruk’s lap, I have nine pair of eyes on the space between my neck and shoulder, which is where Ruk marked my with his wolf bite.
“Claimed your mate then?” Den asks in disgust.
“That’s what happens Den,” Ruk tells him with annoyance.
“You know the mark, that you will always have that there. It might not be visible to you, but it will to any other man.”
“I didn’t force her!” Ruk roars, as he jumps to his feet and pushes me to his side, this is when everyone stands to their feet.
“I didn’t say that Ruk! What’s got your back up? Thinking you don’t deserve her, good! Cos you don’t!”
Before anyone can react, Ruk jumps across the table and lands directly on top of Den. Den and Ruk shift in to their wolves in a blink of an eye, as we watch them battle fiercely.
“Sallack! Stop them, Dallah?” I scream at them whilst pulling at Mickey’s arms for him to free me from his tight embrace.
“Now you have accepted Ruk as your mate, he has the right to battle with any wolf that challenges him for you. This is what we do Zara; this is what you will have to deal with on a regular basis. Ruk won’t seriously hurt Den, he will just show him that he means business when it comes to you,” Mickey tells me calmly.
Ruk is now on top of Den, as he has him pinned to the floor, while growling viciously snapping his teeth in his face.
“Ruk! Please stop this?” I plead.
Ruk meets my gaze with the same frightening expression he was showing Den, his canines on show and his eyes glowing brilliantly, with his heckles raised. He looks fierce, dangerous, but he doesn’t scare me, not one bit.
Ruk’s Wolf loses the savage expression as he steps cautiously away from Den, but Den takes that moment to slash his claws across the side of Ruk’s face. Blood spits across the kitchen before Ruk is on top of Den again, and in a quick movement, he has Den’s neck in his jaws.
“No, this is wrong, stop them please?” I ask in a whimper to anyone that will listen, and before I can blink, Den has vanished from under Ruk. Looking to my side, I realise that it was Dallah, thank god.
Ruk was going to kill Den! I could feel it tingle through the air, the hate they were feeling for each other was stomach wrenching.
Ruk shifts back to his human form, and stalks his way over to me. Blood is covering the right side of his face, and running down his white t-shirt.
“Shit! What were you thinking?” I scold him, but soon wrap my arms around him in a comforting embrace.
“He pushed it too far this time, I won’t have him speak that way anymore. You are mine!�
�
“He did,” I sigh, “but he’s trying to wind you up Ruk, and its working. I get that you are all dominant with all the ‘mine’ shit, but for god sake Ruk, you was going to kill him! That is not ok! I have given you my everything, but you still fight for me, you don’t need to. I’m going to find him,” I tell him before I step away from him walk out on to the porch.
Thinking of Dallah, and wanting to be with her and Den, I close my eyes and concentrate wholly on them.
Opening my eyes I scan my surroundings quickly, all I can see is green grass, and the smell alone reminds me of fond memories. Den and I would spend all day in the fields, just chatting and messing around.
“Zara?” Den’s voice reaches me from across the field.
Squinting my eyes I see him, but only him, Dallah must have left us to speak.
We both run to each other, never breaking eye contact. As soon as we reach each other, I fall into his open arms.
“I don’t know if I can do this babe,” He tells me in a sigh, “Sit with me,” He tells me as he sits on the grass, soon followed by me.
“I’m sorry Den,” I tell him with tears falling gently down my cheeks.
“Yeah, me too,” He says with tears of his own.
His arm laces over my shoulder, pulling me in close, while my arms wrap around his waist.
“You love him more then you did me?” He mutters.
“Don’t Den,” I tell him, knowing that he is trying to make me double think what I have with Ruk.
“When did you stop loving me babe?”
“You mean when I stopped being in love with you. It was when you gave up on me Den, why did you give up on me, why were you so spiteful with your words?”
“I was jealous, I have always been jealous, but I thought that when I got there, I would tell you how I really feel for you. Then I saw you with Richard, Parrise and... Uh, I was a prick; I should have listened to what was going on. Will you give me a chance Zara, love me again like you did before, but more?” He asks in desperation.
“I can’t Den; I have to let you go. I love Ruk, I’m in love with Ruk, more than I thought possible to love a man.”
“You’re scared, let me kiss you and make love to you, gave us a real chance at being together, I could be The One.” He tells me believing himself.
Honestly, he is right, I am scared that I will fall in love with Den, then I would find myself in the same position I was in with Parrise and Sallack. I won’t do it, I don’t want Den, I want Ruk, he fulfills every dream I have in life.
“Den, I’m going to be mated with Ruk, I have and will give myself wholly to him. But I need you with me; you are my family, my life. Please don’t leave us, we can and will get through this.”
“I won’t leave you babe. I will leave you and Ruk in peace, but you will be mine one day. I have dreamt of it my whole life, you, me, here in Nickel town, ever since I was a boy. I never told you, I was scared, I know you don’t believe me babe, but you will be mine.”
“It's just a dream Den, not all dreams come true,” I tell him sympathetically.
“Yeah, they do babe. I won’t wind Ruk up anymore, I will stop looking at you when you’re not watching, with respect for your choice, just know that I will always be waiting,” He tells me with a sparkle in his eye.
“Come on Den, let’s get back, Ruk will be freaking out. Please, let’s get back to normal, I have missed you so much,” I tell him wiping away the fresh tears.
“Me too.”
Arriving back at our home, Den holds me tightly to his chest as we see 6 large, and damn right scary looking men speaking to the Brothers’ and Dallah.
Ruk and I lock eyes as he walks away from the men and right up to me with a snarl on his face.
“Ruk?”
“Take your hands off her!” Ruk spits at Den.
“Fuck you man!”
“Ruk! Why are these men here?” I ask him, whilst looking him in the eye.
“Thomas sent his men to give a message. Den, join the others,” Ruk tells him before he takes me in his arms and gazes down at me with a look of sadness.
Den jogs away from us and to the Brothers’ wanting to know why these men are at our home.
“Thomas has found out that Demitri plans to come for you in one month, and when I say plan, that's all it is. We will fight him and his men, no man or woman will lay a finger on you why I have breath in my body.” He tells me with a choked tone, as if the thought of me being taken pains him horribly.
“I know, and I will never leave again. I will never leave you Ruk, ever,”
He smiles down at me so intently that fire ignites in my belly, and the hairs on my arms and neck stand on end.
“That’s my girl,” He caresses my cheek, “I fucking love you baby.”
“Good, cos I fucking love you,” I tell him with a wink, before I jump onto him, wrapping my legs around his waist and my fingers in his hair while I kiss him like it will be the last, but really, it’s the first, the beginning.
Thank you for purchasing ‘Blue Moon’, I hope you enjoyed Zara’s journey, along with her family. There will be a third book in ‘The Charmer’ series, and I look forward to writing it. Both books in the series were so much fun to write, to let go of reality as pen hits paper.
If you liked this second instalment of The Charmer, then please leave a review if you have time, I would also love to hear from you, all messages will get a reply. Thank you again. Danielle x
