The Crown and his Queen

Chapter 14 - I Really Want You

Arriving at the castle, “Luna?”

Maylyn turns, “Casper!”

Turning and kneeling in front of him. “How can I help you? Is everything okay?”

“Yes Luna. I wanted to see you.”

“I’m about to get fitted for my dress. Want to come with me?”

“Will Alpha be okay that I am here. I am his competition.”

Glancing at Tabitha and they both giggle; “I'm sure Alpha will be okay. You will also be my guest tomorrow.”

Looking at Tabitha, “Wait, can I do that?”

She nods, “Yes, and you will sit with me Casper.”

“Thank you, Luna’s friend. When Luna and I are mates, I will remember you.”

“Luna is my mate.”

All eyes to Gavin, standing behind them. Maylyn smiles, stands and turns her attention to him.

He wraps her arms around her waist and pulls her close. Her body in a Gavin touching me mood.

“Casper. Why don’t we go and find what you will wear tomorrow?” Tabitha says while taking him away.

“Are you cheating on me?” Gavin jokes.

“Impossible!” Maylyn rubs her hands on his forearms and looking into his eyes, “Do you know what your skin does to me? The feelings that travel through my body when I hear your voice?” 

Moving her hands to his chest and to his rock abs before holding on to the button of his pants. “It’s like,” placing several kisses on chest softly, “A cool mask on my face when its hot. The feeling spreads making my skin feel sensitive and crave your touch. When you finally do touch me, bombs explode all over. Since I saw you earlier today… I want to put my lips all over you.”

He moans, she stops the kisses, puts distance between them, and looks up at him. “Why do you do this to me?”

Looking down and seeing his bulge.

“This day isn’t going fast enough.” He cups her face and kisses her slowly. “You better be prepared for tomorrow. I’m going to f**k you until the sun comes up.”

Laughing and hugging him tight. “I want you to know how awkward this is.”

“What is?”

“I’m only 5’2 in a half. You’re like, so tall. My neck hurts looking up at you.”

He chuckles, “I’m only 6’3, not that much taller than you."

“I didn’t notice it- well I did. But until we were in the shower this morning, I didn’t-”

“It doesn’t matter.” He takes her hand and moves it to his thigh right next to his s*x, “All of this is for only you, no matter how tall you are.”

“I can’t wait for tomorrow.” She said moving her hands to his chest. 

“I can’t either.”

Gavin and Maylyn turn to the left at hearing a throat cleared. Trent stands looking at them. “Trent?” She is taken off guard.

“I won’t have to hear his frustration about this ceremony not getting her fast enough. Not to mention, you guys are attracting attention.”

They look around and notice people are looking at them. Gavin clears his throat, pulls from her and takes her hand. “Come, lets get inside. We both have things we have to do.”

Still looking at people looking at them, “Um, yeah-yes, I have to do a fitting. Oh, do you mind that I invited Casper.”

“The competition?” He laughs, “Of course. You are free do it as you wish.”

“Thank you, my love.”

“We will have dinner and then I’ll walk you to your bedroom and be miserable all night.”

“Yay!” Sounding sarcastic, “Sounds like a plan.”

The day ends, Maylyn and Gavin sit side by side on the balcony in his bedroom having dinner.  

“Have you sung lately?”

Sighing, “No, not really. I’m looking forward to all the formalities being over. I want to go and just be alone.”

“Tomorrow. They will be over tomorrow.”

“You know I was wondering something Gavin.”

“Ask me.”

“During these vows? Is there anything I have to do like drink blood or wolfsbane?”

He chuckles, “Wolfsbane. That’s a good one.”

“What do you mean? I’ve heard that stuff is dangerous.”

“Maybe if you were a Werewolf maybe even a weak Lycan. Do you remember what I told you?”

She looks down, “I think so.”

“We are different. You can drink that junk all day and night and it wouldn’t hurt you in anyway. But no, no drinking of blood to join the pack or anything. Once the mating bond is completed, you are part of my pack.”

“Does everyone go through this? s*x?” Maylyn so stunned by what she's assuming.

“What are you asking? No, but you’re different. You’re my Queen and Luna. When it comes to being a regular member of the pack, yes, there are things that must be done.”

“Oh okay.”

“Maylyn, what do you remember about what I told you.”

She sets her plate of food on the table next to her. Getting up, taking his food and placing it on the table and sitting on his lap. “What is it my love?” Gavin's face concerned.

She presses her lips together, “I feel uncomfortable about the feeling. I don’t know if I actually remember or is my mind making things up. So much is going on, I didn’t realize I can think so much.”

He nods and moves hair from her face, “Your thinking and processing power will get bigger. In time you’ll learn to control it.”

Nodding and putting her head on his shoulder, “Gavin, you said a lot.”

“Really? What did I say?”

“You told me about seeing me sing. I never saw you, well not until I was in the kitchen. I was so scared to be with you and at the same time that’s all I wanted. Sometimes its strange how far I’ve- we’ve come, and we aren’t even that far.”

“You defiantly have come out of your shell. I wonder if your Luna will recognize you?”

“She’s coming?”

“Yes.”

“Gavin, like here, here?”

He chuckles, “Yes, she arrived earlier. We will see them after the ceremony. But she did say they would only stay for the day.”

Jumping from his lap and spinning, “Yay! I’m so happy!”

“Come back and let’s finish dinner.”

“Okay.” Maylyn gives him back his plate of food and picks up hers.

“That was a cute dance. Can I expect something like that tomorrow night?” Gavin poses.

“No!” Shocked. “I mean maybe later, but I’m nervous about that too.”

“Why? You want to be together right?”

“I’m sure I’ll be okay in the moment. But right now, I’m nervous.”

He kisses her cheek and they continue with their night.

Trent and Tabitha sit in the kitchen on the bar stools. “We’ve sat here for a while saying nothing. How was your day Tabitha?”

She glances at him with a smile, “It was interesting. Maylyn and I talked and sailed it out.”

“Sailed it out?”

Nodding with a laugh, “Yeah Trent. We sailed it out. I told her about my- our past.”

“Oh? How did that go?”

“Fine. She listened and understood why I think like I do.”

“I understand too. I’m still trying to get forgiveness for that mess.”

Looking at him, “Stop Trent. That is over, its in the past. But you didn’t expect to have no repercussions for the future.”

“No. I know there is and that’s why I’ve never pushed you. I’ve tried hard to not approach you every time I see you. But I don’t want to be like this anymore. I want us to be together.”

Tabitha glances away, “How was your meeting? Is she here?”

“The meeting was fine. What we are preparing for has not come up yet.”

“Trent is she here?”

“Yes. Gavin and I greeted the pack today before the meeting.”

“Did you feel anything for her?”

“No. Tabitha when that incident happened, and you left. I asked Eleanor to go home. I saw the expression on your face, it broke me. I couldn’t look at her the same again. I knew she wasn’t who I wanted to be with and that was it. She left and I told her that it was over.”

“But did you tell her you have a mate Trent?”

“No. I didn’t think it was necessary.”

“Did she come here thinking maybe you two could be together?”

“Not that I’m aware of. I haven’t really talked to her since she left or at least not in that regards.”

“You still talk to her?” Feeling her guard up, sadness and anger taking over, and everything she though of him is coming true. “She does, right? You didn’t tell her about me, so she thinks there is a chance. Is there Trent? Does she have a chance? All your words are lies!”

Tabitha stands from the bar, pushing the bar stool out of her way yelling, “Its true. You’re nothing but a liar.”

“No Tabitha, listen to me.”

He takes her hand. She shakes him off, “Don’t touch me! Don’t touch me again! You lied to me! I want you to reject me now.”

He stands up and grabs her arms, “No! I won’t reject you! You’re my mate! I want you!”

Shaking her head, feeling the tears about to fall from her eyes, “Don’t-”

Turning and running out of the kitchen into the darkness. 

Trent’s attention taken seeing Maylyn running after Tabitha. Gavin looks at him, “Are you planning on going after her.”

His mind still in shock of everything that is going on. “I-I don’t-”

“Let me make this clear brother. My mate is outside doing your job. If Tabitha is your mate and the person you want to be with, you better make it clear, tonight.”

“What do I- what’d I say? You heard her?”

“I don’t know brother. If you love her, you better go and claim her.”

Feeling that matter they have prepared for coming to the castle as they speak. No longer talking aloud, “He’s coming Trent.”

“I know. I felt it too.”

“I’m glad this happen before they got here. Let’s handle this brother and then you go and get my mate and yours.”

Trent nods. “Are you ready Trent?”

They look at each other. “I’m getting my emotions in order.”

Gavin turns around, “Hello Alpha Ray. What can I do for you tonight?”

“I’m here with a proposal.”

“Oh?” Gavin said aloud. “Come into my office. Let’s talk business. Trent, shall we.”

Trent nods, “Yes, let’s do.”
