Violet’s Protectors – Beyond The Veil 6
http://www.bookstrand.com/violets-protectors
Violet King has only had two major goals in her life, keep from
being killed from those who want her throne, and avoid her mates at all
costs. The first is easily achievable, the second is heartbreaking and
will leave her to forever walk the Realms alone. There is a problem,
though. If she never meets her mates than an entire Race will die out.Given a task by their new king to bring a friend to the throne home, Viper and Ladon never expected to find their mate at the same time. With trouble coming for her there is only one option, do whatever is necessary to get her beyond the Veil to safety. What comes after will forever alter everyone, and everything—forever.
A prophecy speaking of death is now in play, turmoil between Earth and the Realms has reached an all-new level, and time is beginning to run out for them all.
STORY EXCERPT
September 30, 2035
There was a movement, the slightest
flutter of a curtain which told the secrets held within. There was life,
there was movement, and that meant that there was a chance that there
was a person or persons inside of the home who might be able to shed
some light on the mystery.
When the curtain fell back into place,
however, there was no dawning knowledge, there was no blinding accuracy
in simply knowing. Instead there was silence.
Frustration was the name of the game at
this moment, and it was not something that she enjoyed. At all.
Frustration was a bitter pill to swallow and one that more often than
not got stuck in the craw of one’s throat.
Rubbing the back of her neck, Violet
turned away from the conundrum that was before her. She leaned back in
the seat she took outside of a cafe and sipped at the cocoa that she had
been given and tried to think of what was going on.
Pulling out her old ratty notebook she
fished out a pen from the bottom of her backpack and wrote her notes
into the old-fashioned notebook.
While there was a presence inside of
the home, there wasn’t a response when the bell was rung, nor was there
when a delivery arrived via courier. Suspiciously there was another
person who arrived to let the delivery in, however from where the party
came from I don’t know.
Vi chewed her pen cap and then tapped it to her lip before she continued.
The being inside of the home is not a
human. I can tell that much from the sidewalk. I’m not certain just
exactly what the race is for this being, however I have to be honest
here–the feeling is malevolent and the malcontent that is all but
pouring out of the home is nearly blinding.
She had to shiver. She didn’t like it at
all. There was something more about this job than just trying to figure
out exactly who or what was inside of the home, she didn’t like that.
I keep finding myself questioning this
assignment. I keep finding myself wanting to walk away from it, and if
not for the plea from the woman on the other side of this equation I
would have walked away by now. If a major change doesn’t occur within
the next two days I am walking away. I have found nothing as of yet and
can’t shake the feeling that I’m being set up for some reason. I just
wish that I knew what it was that I was being set up about.
I think that it’s time that the
discussion is had with the bosses. I’m ready to turn in my notice and
walk away from it all. I think that the ones that hunt me are starting
to get close again and that’s why this assignment feels off. I think
that it’s time to disappear again.
Words she quickly scribbled out and then
pulled the page out to tear into small pieces so that she could dump
them into her coffee cup to toss away. Violet sighed and closed her
eyes. God, she was not in a good place right now. Not with this
assignment and with anything.
Quickly Violet shoved her pink and blue
hair back behind her ears. The short hair in the back, long in front, a
far cry different from what she was born with. The only thing Violet
couldn’t change was her eyes. Eyes that denoted exactly who she was, the
status and hierarchy that she held. If she wanted it. But she knew that
to take the position that she was born to take would mean her death.
Fabulous.
Not.
I believe that this being that I’m
chasing, this Luhpyne that is supposed to be harming children and women,
is not an actual person, but a set of persons. I don’t truly believe
that the being in the home is a human, but I don’t get the feeling that
they are Luhpyne either. I truly believe that whatever, whoever is
inside of that home is evil and therefore it’s time to turn this case
over to the AEDA. I just hope that I can turn this into them without
whoever I talk to realizing just what, and worse, who I am.
She hesitated and bit her lower lip. Yeah.
That would not be good. She had come to Earth far before the Veil fell.
She had hidden when yet another attempt on her life was thwarted. An
attempt that had cost the life of one of her oldest and dearest friends.
A Draygon.
It was when that happened that Violet went
to the only being she could trust, Drakos. King of the Draygons, he
realized just who and what she was and realized that she held a secret.
One that she kept close. No, Drakos was an honorable and good man and
helped her to disappear onto Earth. A land that the Races viewed with
disdain from afar.
Violet, however, lost herself on Earth.
She had flitted from city to city and watched the humans as they
learned, as they grew, and as they finally began to make advances into
technology.
“Shit,” Violet grumbled and shoved all of her stuff back into her backpack.
She knew that it was time to turn her
files over to the AEDA and disappear. She hadn’t talked to Drakos since
he helped her to hide the first time but now that the Veil had fallen,
perhaps she should reach out to him again. Maybe it was time to lose
herself in one of the Realms since someone had obviously found her here
on Earth.
ADULT EXCERPT
“Fuck.” She all but moaned that singular
word when the new angle of her body opened her fully for both of their
rather large hands to tease and worship her skin. “That feels so damn
good.” It had been far, far too long since she allowed herself to feel
anything like this, and even then it felt nothing like this was feeling,
because no one had been her mate until now.
Ladon rubbed his fingers over her pussy,
between her folds and through the moisture there. Sliding his fingers
back, he spread her juices to her anus. Over and over he did the same,
each time he rubbed more to her ass, pressing in a little each time
until he breached her with a finger. “Gods, you’re so fucking tight,” he
growled out next to her ear.
“More,” was all that Violet could say in
reply. She was tight because she had never, ever allowed anyone to touch
her there. None had ever felt right but she knew that these men were
right. They were hers and she was theirs, for now and for the rest of
time. She belonged to them as they did to her. “Again,” she begged him.
“More, I want everything with the two of you. I finally want to feel
whole.”
The sensations were amazing, the feeling
of these men touching her as they did. It was perfect, and their hands
seemed to move in perfect harmony. Violet finally looked up at Viper and
her breath caught in the back of her throat. This was what she needed.
Him. Them. Everything. “God yes,” she moaned. “Perfect.” She whimpered.
“Please, kiss me?” She requested of Viper. She needed more, needed that
connection and was desperate to forge it with them.
Dipping his chin, he brushed his lips to
hers slowly. He nipped at her lip right when Ladon pressed his finger in
deeper, slowly stretching her. Viper captured her moan with a deep kiss
while Ladon began to slowly stroke his finger in and out of her ass.
Violet shivered and jerked, her body was
moving in desperation and need. When she parted from Viper her eyes were
glowing, the need was there just as it was on her Draygon. “Please.”
She whispered that singular word for him and Ladon alone. She would
never beg another being, only these two men.
“Hold on,” Ladon said next to her ear. “We
still have to stretch you more, you’re so fucking tight, sweetheart.
You cannot come, though, no matter what, you can’t come without us.
Remember that, and if it becomes too much, say something, we’ll take a
breather until you’re balanced again.” She felt him stretching her more.
“Working two in now, Vi.”
Vi nodded and let her forehead drop to
Viper’s chest. She was clenching her hands on his arms tightly. “I won’t
come without the two of you, I need you both far too damn much for
that.” She needed that connection to them both, had to have it, or she
knew she wouldn’t be able to continue on with this life.
Viper slid his hands up, one on her arm,
the other to the back of her neck. “Keep breathing,” he said softly. He
nipped at her ear gently before he rested his cheek to hers, the stubble
on his cheeks lightly scraping her skin.
The tactile sensations of Viper nuzzling
and teasing her skin and the stretching and teasing that Ladon was doing
to her backside had her gasping for air. “Gods. That feels so good.”
They hadn’t even touched her clit and already she was about to go off
like the proverbial rocket. She saw stars behind her eyelids, she was
gasping for air but forced her orgasm under control. “Hurry,” she
demanded instead. “Not going to hurt me, not when I was made for you
both. God, please hurry.”
“You’re too tight, Vi. I don’t want to hurt you,” Ladon growled.
“She’s on edge, Ladon. We can’t risk having her go over. Take it slow, but we need to do this now.”
“Shit,” he muttered. “I really wish we had some lube.”
“Check the bedside table, knowing Drake there’s likely some in there,” Viper said.
Violet’s eyes were closed as she clenched
her fingers against Viper’s shoulders. She leaned in and bit his
shoulder, she couldn’t seem to help herself. She was desperate and she
damn well needed and wanted both of them to be right there with her. She
wanted to shake that indomitable control that Viper had on himself, she
wanted to see the Draygon that was hers. Dammit.
“Behave,” he said, his voice taking on a sharp edge.
“Got some,” Ladon announced triumphantly.
“Vi, hold on, sweetheart. This is likely to be damned cold. But I need
to work some up your gorgeous little ass before we start. Try not to
clench too hard if you can.”
“Working on trying, but then Viper tells
me to behave.” She looked up at said mate and grinned. “Do it, Ladon,”
she said, but her eyes never left Viper’s, she was utterly mesmerized by
him. “Hurry, don’t care how fucking cold it is, because soon we will be
burning hot.”
