Firstborn: Necromancer Chronicles (Erotic Fantasy) Book 3

  When I told him what else I got he smiled and moved his arm around.

  “Thanks, it was actually a little sore still, so should I stick around a bit? I plan to tell them I have a family emergency and have to reschedule.”

  I nodded, “Sounds perfect, thanks. Did you want to exchange numbers? I was serious about you two sticking around here. You’d only be one oddity of many in this town.”

  He chuckled and pulled out his phone, we took care of that, and then I got myself to where I was supposed to be. I was changing into my scrubs when I felt her come in.

  Callie grinned, “Morning. Last night was a rousing success. I even got yelled at.”

  I snorted, “You really do like living on the edge don’t you?”

  She nodded unrepentantly, “Of course, how do you think this happened,” she said while running her hand along her body.

  “I was a bit to wild for my own good when I was alive. Believe it or not, this is mellow me.”

  I grinned and finished getting dressed, feeling a little self conscious as she watched me.

  “When was that?”

  She chuckled, “A long time ago. France in the sixteen hundreds actually.”

  My eyes got a little wide at that, “Why aren’t you in charge then? You must be way more powerful than the current councilor.”

  Vampires got more powerful the older they were, the current councilor was probably just around a hundred or so.

  She snorted, “Would you really want to put me in charge? No, I’m the… disruptive element and like it that way. Life is too short not to have fun. We should go out again soon,” she smiled evilly.

  I frowned, “Just for the thrill of it?”

  She shook her head, “I’d be lying if I said getting along with you so well was the only reason. I do like you and we would have been friends regardless. But yes, it does give me a little bit of a thrill.”

  I asked curiously, “Why…”

  She stepped forward getting close to me. Her almond eyes were mesmerizing and although I knew I could enslave her with a thought she looked like a goddess of some kind in the flesh.

  She said with a sexy smile, “You’re dangerous sweetie, in more ways than one. You are the only one in this town that could take me out with a thought, you are sizzling hot and exactly my type, and your blood has the scent of life itself. Add in everything else and how could I not be drawn to you like a moth to a flame?”

  I wasn’t quite sure what to say to that, she was incredibly bold and I was a bit flatfooted. Was it kind of hot in here? I also seemed to be having some trouble breathing and my mouth felt dry. She thought I was hot? I hadn’t felt so attracted to someone in years, not since Bree, Rafe, and I had formed a solid relationship. It was thoughts of my family that broke me out of her mesmerizing gaze, and no, I wasn’t talking magically.

  “Maybe, but I’m not the only dangerous one,” I whispered harshly.

  She smiled at me mysteriously and walked out of the room. She had clearly known and quite enjoyed the fact she had managed to fluster me so thoroughly. Bree wasn’t upset at my reaction or feelings, she thought it’d been kind of hot actually, and I could feel her amusement at my reaction through our bond.

  I had no idea what to do about it, but she wasn’t the only one who enjoyed fun. If nothing else she was that, so I figured I’d probably go out again with her sometime for another girls’ night out.

  My work day went pretty smoothly after my interesting morning. All of our patients seemed to have good a good prognosis for surgery being effective. It was only my third day. I hadn’t snuck in any healing at all. I wondered how hard that would be with Andoman always looking over my shoulder to make sure I didn’t screw up.

  I could hide any visual aural affects of my magic, but he wasn’t stupid.

  Wednesday was a little interesting. I got to observe two surgeries. I knew it would be a few months before I was trusted to participate, but it was interesting, and at the same time a little frustrating to not be able to just heal them as I knew I could so easily do.

  Wednesday night got a little too interesting. Four fae came through the gate. I set ghosts on them all, to follow. I thought about attacking right away, but against four I’d definitely need my brother’s help, possibly more than that. Also, I wanted to leave them enough rope in case there were more fae around that they would lead me too.

  I kept an eye on them while at work Thursday morning. I should have Friday and Saturday off, if I don’t get paged, and I could deal with it then. Hopefully with some help. It was Thursday afternoon when I started to regret putting it off. I had worked seven years of college to get to this point, and if I disappeared or didn’t show up it would be very bad.

  My ghost on portal guard called out and I reached out through the bond with my senses to see what he was seeing.

  The strange writings were glowing brown, and there was what looked like a rip in reality. I couldn’t see through to the other side, the surface of it was a mottled swirl of black and brown colors. I watched as fae started to pour through, when it got to twenty, one came flying out of the portal and slammed into a couple of his buddies.

  My ghost looked closer and he was bleeding, his leg looked mangled. I looked up to the portal and some more fae were coming through backwards while surrounded with their brown shields. I thought perhaps some other fae on the other side were trying to stop them. The next one that came through was clearly dead, then there was a magical explosion of some kind and the portal closed violently, the stones containing the strange writing were destroyed.

  A little over thirty fae had come over and were still alive. What’s worse was I didn’t know if this was the only portal, or if there were more to worry about. They separated into five groups of six and moved out while a couple stayed behind, trying to help the wounded one. I assigned five more ghosts, one to each group, and took a deep breath. I had no idea what was going on, but whatever it was didn’t look good.

  Another thought occurred, all the escalating violence worldwide. The humans were certainly capable of violence, but what if they were being helped along? I was sure Kristi could do something like that if she wanted too. The original four fae were still hours away, and it would take at least a day for the others. So I decided to finish my shift.

  We were doing the last check that evening on a patient after surgery when I felt the first fae. I tensed for a moment, wondering what to do as I felt his magical aura enter the front of the building. I had obviously been right about others being there, but they had foregone contact. Maybe they had just used their magic and spoke mind to mind, or maybe they were all independent.

  After all, they should be well aware of our capabilities with ghosts spying and information retrieval after death. Solitary cells all with the same mission would make sense.

  As I considered what to do, I felt another fae come in a back entrance, and then another through the ER. Would they attack in the open? Well, if they did, they could either erase it from the humans’ minds, or simply not worry about it. I had a feeling they would want the instability that would follow, anything to get the humans to panic and start killing each other.

  “Jones!”

  Uh… “Yes Doctor Andoman?” Shit. I had no idea what he asked me.

  Dr. Andoman rolled his eyes and asked the question a second time, he didn’t look pleased even though I was able to answer it. But it was late and he cut us loose.

  I was going to teleport out, but I felt Callie moving toward one of the fae. I shut my eyes a second to get focused and used my magic to move much more quickly as I took the stairway down to the first floor. I was moving pretty fast down the hallway when I heard her voice.

  Callie asked, “What the hell are you doing here?”

  She had no clue of course, I hadn’t told her anything yet really. I got to the room in time to see her raised off the ground and flung into a wall. I heard a few humans scream, I really needed to get out of here. I ran to pick her up and teleport, but
two of them hit my shield at the same time from different directions.

  I went down to my knees knowing I either needed to bring out my real shields, or get out of there when suddenly the attack stopped. I looked up and saw Callie staring at someone in shock, but before I turned around to see who it was I heard…

  “Hey gorgeous, can’t you keep out of trouble for a few days?”

  I felt so relieved my eyes moistened a little bit. That asshole.

  Callie floundered, “He’s human, how in the hell did he do that?”

  I turned and saw two decapitated bodies, Rafe looked to be wearing a t-shirt and shorts, but I bet his magic was out.

  I snorted, “Meet Rafe, he’s an angel, and I don’t mean his personality.”

  Rafe snickered, “It’s good to see you too. There are more of them coming you know.”

  I said, “Just lay low Callie, they’re after me so they’ll leave when I do.”

  Callie asked, “I’d like to go…”

  Her eyes were lit up with excitement and I rolled my eyes.

  “Rafe, meet Callie, vampire adrenalin junkie.”

  Rafe turned around and looked back, “About ten more fae are almost here, not to mention human security is coming, let’s go.”

  I didn’t even feel his magic, but I was teleported home and he’d brought Callie with us. Bree was there in seconds with her body and her eyes were hard and alert.

  I blurted, “My brother…”

  Rafe shook his head, “They haven’t attacked him yet. I’m sorry I was gone for so long, I’ve been trying to convince my sovereign we need to interfere between this human and fae thing. But he wants to wait before he takes sides. He isn’t convinced that humanity should be protected over the fae and is taking a wait and see attitude. The demons are pretty much doing the same. No one really wants another war.

  “Technically I’m forbidden to help the humans too, but I can protect you. So what’s been going on and who’s this?”

  I went over the last few days and introduced Callie a little better. He seemed thoughtful for a minute.

  Rafe said, “Darling, will you fill in Callie on what is all at stake, and if she wants to stay after that I’m good with it. I need to talk with our mate for a minute; we should have a while before they find us again.”

  Bree grinned, “Sure, I can do that. Not that she’ll say no, it will just get her more excited.”

  I snorted and shook my head, she was probably right.

  He took my hand and took me to the bedroom. When we got there he slammed the door with a foot and pulled me into a hard lustful and desperate kiss. It was so not the time but my body disagreed as his lips plundered mine and his hard strong hands roamed my body and set my core on fire.

  Rafe said a little guiltily, “God, I was almost too late; I thought I had longer or I’d have been back sooner.”

  I muttered breathily, “I was fine, now shut up and fuck me,” and kissed him aggressively, rubbing my body against his.

  I had missed him, and halfway through an escape or not, I wanted him now. A minute ago I would have laughed at the idea, but once I felt his lips and his arms around me I knew I needed it… needed him.

  I hardly noticed as he stripped me naked. I was so lost in his kiss, his hands, and his simple presence. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around him and ground my hot core against him, desperate to feel his long hard cock sheathed in my tingling body.

  He dropped me onto the bed and fell to his knees.

  I said between gasping breaths, “Fuck me, please fuck me.”

  He grabbed my legs and pulled me so my ass hung off the bed, resting my legs over his shoulders.

  He looked up at me and said, “You haven’t begged enough yet.”

  My body jumped as he licked up my aching slit causing a jolt of pleasure to radiate from my core. I gasped as my nipples tightened and reached up to squeeze and pull them.

  “Please love, fuck me, I need it…” I begged with tears of pleasure in my eyes.

  He swatted my ass hard from underneath while he sucked in my clit. My breath was frozen for a few seconds as the two opposed sensations mixed in the core of my body.

  “You can do better than that gorgeous.”

  I moaned in both pleasure and frustration as he brought me close to orgasm with his tongue, but not over.

  I begged, the words coming in breathless spurts, “Please, stick your big cock in my tight wet hole. Use me until you fill me with your cum. I need it, need you… need you to take me…”

  He grabbed my legs and flipped me over, my legs hanging down to the floor as my upper body and head lay on the bed. I closed my eyes as they rolled back and whimpered as he shoved it in me hard, forcing open my small channel with his large invader.

  I said dreamily as I felt myself adjust to his wide girth, “That’s it baby, fuck your hole. I’m yours, take me, fill me…”

  I kept up the begging nasty pillow talk between my fast breaths as he started to ream into me. He held me down with his hands. My body desperately wanted to buck back into him, but I couldn’t move. It was both frustrating and an amazing turn on at the same time. Still, I did what I could and tightened myself around him each time he pounded into me and arched my back to increase his penetration.

  He pulled my ass cheeks apart and I felt him push in a wet thumb. It felt really good, not too big to be painful at all, yet his strokes into my needy sex made me feel so much fuller. I was so close to coming.

  Rafe ordered, “Cum for me, I want to feel you bathe my cock.”

  My body tightened, my back arched, and my core gripped his length with wet heat as I was overcome with rapture. He never stopped, if anything he was pounding into me harder. I came hard a second time as I felt him expand, stretching me out further, as he unloaded into me. When I came down from the intensity of it, I felt him pull me up further on the bed and he held me.

  He had been rough and demanding, and now he held me gently, sharing soft kisses and words of love. He always knew exactly what I wanted… and needed…

  He whispered, “So gorgeous, you like this Callie? Do I need to come up with another pet name?”

  I shrugged, “I do like her, but mostly as a friend I think? I’m very attracted to her, but she’s kind of wild and crazy, which may actually be a part of the attraction. She’s really nice too, and outgoing, take life by the horns and ride it for all that its worth kind of person.”

  He nodded, “I could feel some of that back at the hospital. You were pretty worried about her when I took out those fae.”

  I shrugged, “I’d have just teleported otherwise. I was about to grab her and get out of there when you showed up. I can’t hide my sword and armor yet, not when it’s fully made manifest, solid.”

  He shrugged, “Next time fuck the humans and just do it. You can always call Amy or Kristi, hell, Elisha and Eloise would help you with a cover up too you know.”

  I snorted, “Don’t get all logical on me damn it. But to answer your question… maybe. The potential is there, but who knows if it would work. Plus I need Bree’s and your opinion first.”

  I couldn’t even believe we were talking about this, there was a minor invasion of fae all out to kill me and I’d been a total slut at his very touch. Now I was thinking about how beautiful Callie was and discussing inviting her to our bed.

  “Shouldn’t we go to my brother’s house? I think I put it off too long, it’s way past time to gather all the troops. I should also let mom and dad know so they can get word out to the community and handle all that.”

  He nodded and I closed my eyes as he brushed my hair out of my face, and caressed it softly.

  “Okay, sounds like a plan.”

  It was all my idea, but when he pulled me up and off the bed I felt a little annoyed, I was so comfortable laying there next to him. When we got in the other room Bree and Callie were waiting. I blushed at Bree’s knowing and Callie’s speculative looks.

  Bree said, “She’s in, and she
’s crazier than you are boss.”

  I peered at her. She was getting better at acting as an equal but backslid from time to time. Especially if there was danger about, she became fiercely protective.

  Callie asked, “So what’s the plan?”

  I shrugged, “I have an inkling, but we need to gather everyone first to make the real plan. We’re going to head to my brother’s house.”

  Callie grinned, “Awesome, I haven’t had so much fun in at least a century.”

  I looked at her sourly, “That’s because they aren’t trying to kill you.”

  The four hundred plus year old vampire stuck her tongue out at me like a five year old, as I gathered everyone into my magic and took us to my brother’s house.

  Kristi grinned at us and gestured toward the table, where there was a carafe of fresh coffee and some cookies. I loved Kristi to death and despite not seeing her as much still consider her my best friend. But sometimes she can be really creepy. She had discovered the way to get post cognition event was to not focus on anything specific, to let her magic lead her where it wills.

  Every so often she does something like this and it freaks me out.

  I raised an eyebrow, “Expecting company?”

  She giggled and hugged me, “You know I only do this stuff because it freaks you out…”

  I sighed. We chatted a moment as we poured coffee, the cookies were awesome, my best friend could bake like no tomorrow. A few minutes later Vinnie and Alicia showed up. I took a moment to introduce them all to Callie before I got started and we went over everything.

  Vinnie asked, “So, what’s the plan?”

  I shivered. I hated to even think it, how many it would kill. But I knew in my heart it was the only way to save humanity, though millions would still die.

  I said in a matter of fact voice, “Simple, I’m going to go destroy the fae enchantment on humanity… which will allow the humans to claim their magic and birthright.”

  The vociferous objections started almost immediately. Maybe I should have started with my reasons first?
