Xavier pulled her to a stop by her elbow, “We are mates, that was just instinct.”
Camilla yanked her arm out of his hand, “I didn’t agree to be mates.”
He lifted his lip in a growl, “You did when I gave you that neroroot to clear your head.”
“What?”
“When you put my dick into your pussy, that was all you.” Xavier grunted, “The neroroot snapped you out of the mates lust, or is that just something you do with every man you fuck.”
Camilla’s face stilled into hard lines and she walked through the portal gate.
Xavier paced down the small walkway that led to Camilla’s apartment. It had been two months since her scent faded from his home and he was in a mode of panic. The thick rain layered down on him in sheets and he couldn’t care less. The only thing that mattered was the feeling that lead him to her doorstep.
It was as if he could see a solid line that lead from him to her at all times. A constant reminder that they were too far apart. He tried to use the human forms of communication, but she wouldn’t pick up his calls. Would she talk to him in person? Will she open the door?
His uncertainty kept him from knocking. Xavier moved to grasp his horn, but it wasn’t there for comfort. His human form was smaller and missing vital pieces. He came to a stop in front of her door. Was he truly afraid of what she would say? Yes. Would he dread never asking? Yes.
Xavier knocked on the door and waited. He could hear someone on the other side of the door. Brown eyes peeked from behind the curtains of the door’s view window. They rolled at him then the curtain closed.
“Please talk to me Camilla.”
“What are you doing here?” She called from the other side of the door.
Xavier raked his hands through his hair, “I want to apologize for my deplorable words.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
He took a deep breath and placed his forehead against the window, “I was wrong for not considering how you would feel about becoming my mate.” Xavier paused as she moved on the other side. “You don’t know about the ways of my people and I was wrong to think anyone could make a life changing decision in a fit of passion.”
The door of the neighboring apartment opened, and an older woman poked her head out, “Camilla,” she called as she looked him up and down, “Let this boy in before I take him!”
The lock clicked, and Camilla opened her door, “Come in.”
Xavier nodded at the woman and stepped in.

Camilla walked to the end of the entryway as Xavier closed and locked her door. Her eyes grew into saucers as he transformed into his minotaur form and went down to his knees. His horns, caging her against the wall.
“Come on Xavier, get up.”
He nuzzled her belly, sending tingles down to her core, “Please let me make it up to you.”
Camilla scoffed, “You think sex will make up for insults?”
“That was a mistake and will never happen again.” Xavier wrapped his arms around her thighs and pressed his forehead against her stomach. “Let me make up for all the time wasted away from you.” His soft words and heated breath stirred her lower body as he moved his hands to rub just under her behind.
She couldn’t stop herself from placing her hands in his thick hair and stroked his scalp, “I actually missed you.”
He pulled back and she let her hands slide to his cheeks, “But I don’t know if that is just because of the mate’s bond we share.”
“I know it’s a big step and hard to rush into,” Xavier covered her hand in his and rubbed his cheek into her palm. “But, I want you and my son, so we can take it at whatever pace you want.”
Her mouth hung open, she was pregnant. It had been two months of suspensions. Was it even possible to have a baby for a minotaur? Would she see signs other than a late period? None of the tests showed a positive, but she felt different. As if something more was building inside.
Xavier held her in a steady gaze as she processed the possibilities, “Will you give me a chance to be a father and maybe a mate?”
“How,” Camilla gulped, “How can you be so sure, so soon?”
He lifted her shirt to kiss her belly, “He is changing your scent.” Xavier pulled at the edge of her tights, “You smell like me.”
Camilla stepped out of her tights and panties and panted as he buried his face between her legs. He lifted her legs to his shoulders and pushed his thick tongue between her folds.
“Fuck!” She cried and pulled her shirt over her head. Her body was vibrating around him as he curled and uncurled his tongue within her. Her walls pulsed, trying to keep his retreating body inside her with each stroke.
Xavier pulled out and she groaned her frustration, “Don’t worry,” He started as he dropped her down to his lap, “I have more for you.”
His shaft slipped inside of her wet canal as he covered her moan with his lips.
Camilla sank into his passion until her body convulsed through her release. He was claiming her and no matter how much she denied it, she had claimed him. Maybe, this wouldn’t be so bad at all.
Xavier rubbed a thumb just under her swollen nub and Camilla arched her back. Another wave was cresting through her. Maybe it was a little bad but in a good way.
Xavier watched Camilla as she gave out swift delegations to the people scurrying around her. His son heavy and low in her belly. He grinned when she stole a glance from him. The woman was insatiable in the final months of her pregnancy. No complaints could be conjured as he eyed her office.
Between soothing her swollen and over sensitive folds and helping her set up for the ever-looming grand opening party, Xavier could not be happier.
“Being mated looks good on you.” Silver laughed as he smacked him across the back.
Xavier turned to his old friend, “It will look great on you soon.”
The leviathan had taken on his smaller, bipedal form to blend in with the many other Xuastroth ‘costumed’ denizens that were to attend the grand opening of the Savage Menagerie. He could never truly blend as one of the great dragons, but he never seemed to care.
“Hopefully that will be as soon as tonight.” Zunvaek’s voice met them before he appeared on the other side of Xavier.
Both gave him a slight bow of their heads and said, “Greetings, Lord Zunvaek.”
He lifted his lips in a crooked smirk, “Drop the Lord, old heads.”
Xavier was the first to laugh, “What brings you out of the shadows Zunvaek?”
“Nebt-Het wants this night to go smoothly, so I’m here to assist.”
“Does that mean she thinks we’re going to ‘act up’ on the first night of mingling with the humans?”
Zunvaek folded his arms and gave a slight tilt of his head, “Possible, but I have my concerns since Xavier’s run-in with those defectors.”
Xavier gave him his full attention, “Have there been more stirrings?” Concern for Camilla and their son had him alert and ready to protect.
“Only rumors,” the dark lord nodded, “But we need to keep an eye out for any more issues.”
“That won’t be a problem.” Xavier looked back at Camilla. Where she was concerned, any threat was bound to be destroyed. Her love for the Savage Menagerie cemented his will to protect the place.
“Anything, in particular, to look out for?” Silver asked.
“Nothing of note, just keep your eyes open.”
Xavier and Silver grunted in agreement and they all continued to watch the scurrying people. Camilla caught Xavier’s eye once again and she headed towards the entrance to her office.
“I’ll be back.” He said as he walked to meet her, not waiting for their snickering responses. Worrying about possible treason against the dark lord could be put on hold since he was in their presence. His mate needed him and who was he to deny her needs.

About the Author
Naomi Foxx is a budding author who has b
een engulfed by the world of erotica. After writing short stories for fun and taking many creative writing classes, she decided to take her hobby seriously. Follow her as she begins her journey. When she’s not reading or writing erotica, she’s probably researching everything about sex, dancing, or cooking.
“I’ve always been fascinated by the world of the paranormal and love reading erotica based on it. The only problem I had with the current selections, were the weak female leads. It always seemed like it was impossible for the heroine to be a strong person alongside the hero. It didn't matter if one, the other, or both were a part of the paranormal world, the female was the weak link. I know characters are supposed to grow into a new person by the end of a good story, but that does not mean they have to be molded solely by their partner. Why not have two strong characters that share weakness and make them rounded individuals? That's what I set out to do. My goal is to bring diversity into the world of erotica, not only in appearance, but in attitude and outlooks as well.”

Excerpt from Summoned mate: Demon Knights Book #1
* * *
The fire fizzled out and everything was still around her. The prick of an otherworldly entity's presence alerted her to the arrival of Derulo. She felt him behind her and turned to the empty area at the corner of the room. His dark fur and armor were hiding everything but his glowing teeth.
“Take off your clothes.” His gravelly voice was commanding her.
Gabby complied, noting the distance in his tone, “Hello to you too.” She chided and regretted her automatic response; she needed him to want to let her enjoy their time together.
“Come to me and turn around.”
“Why are you keeping the lights out even though you aren’t going to let me see you?” Gabby asked while doing as he commanded. Her voice low and laced with honey.
“None have ever enjoyed watching me take pleasure from their body.”
“Well, I like to see what is going to be on and inside me.”
The fire flared brighter than before, and Gabby turned around. Derulo dropped his chest plate to the floor and unstrapped the metal that covered his groin, exposing him. She slowly raked her eyes over his dark chest that wasn’t covered in fur as the rest of him was. Smooth, with chiseled abdominal muscles that veed down into an enormous and ready member. It was just as dark as the rest of his underside, which wasn’t nearly as black as his fur. Derulo lifted a hand and stroked it with his long finger. He pulled some of the precum from the tip along himself, making his dick glisten.
Gabby’s stomach clenched, Derulo exuded power and his body was more than capable of filling wild fantasies. In fact, he had been a part of her nighttime delights at home before and after their fight. However, she could never have imagined the length and girth that held up to his truth.
“You saw, now turn around.” His husky voice lower than before.
“What if I don’t want to?”
Derulo grunted and bared his teeth, “This is not about pleasure.”
Gabby crossed her arms under her breast and leaned heavily back on one foot, “Why not? We could at least have fun even if it is just for one night.”
He stopped stroking himself, “What is the point?” He grunted. “We are only fulfilling the act of mating to reject the final seal.” His voice cracked just a fraction, “Let’s just get this over with.”
Gabby unfolded her arms and stepped closer, "Would it please you if someone enjoyed giving into your body rather than just taking what was bargained for?"
"It has never happened," Derulo growled.
She placed a hand on his jaw, sliding her fingers through his incredibly soft fur, “Would you like to try?” She took her other hand rubbed it along the underside of his neck. A low purr was his response; Gabby knew she was doing something right. She pulled off his helmet and stepped forward, letting the side of his face run along her own until her cheek pressed against the side of his neck.
