The Crown and his Queen

Chapter 3 - Running again?

Walking outside and a short way away to talk. “You’re thinking Noble?”

Gavin nods, “You as well. But the smell? Nobles don’t normally smell bad.”

“You think he is rogue?”

“I do Trent.”

“I agree. You understand this is probably your fault.”

I look at my brother, he is the only one that can be this honest with me. He is not my real brother, but he was born to be my right hand and he is. Only my mate will trump him… at times. “I know it’s my fault. But there was business to take care of. I get flack for thinking with the right head.”

“There’s no wining.” Trent says with a serious, should’ve known tone.  

“Serious!”   

They laugh together. “Okay, so I figure we have at least a couple of days. He won’t be back right away.”

“I agree Trent. I’m not worried. Tristan doesn’t want to f**k with me.”

Trent laughs, “Ambitions of the King. I’ll leave you to yours.”

Gavin turns his attention, the person attached to the smell of fresh citrus. She is sitting with the little blonde girl, singing a sad song. He understands she is out tonight hoping to run into him, and he will not disappoint.

Walking to stand in front of her; she stops singing at the growl, “Mine!”

She looks up at him, stands and slightly bows. “I have been waiting for you all my life.”

This takes her off guard, “Um, I’m sorry for running away yesterday.”

He takes her hand; the distance is already stabbing me in the heart. Her voice is soft, as if she is not sure how to react to me.    

“No worries. You’re here now.”

She looks down at their hands, “What do you feel?”

“Warm, soft, safe.” She giggles, “Tingles.”

“What’s your name Songbird?”

She looks up at him. He marvels at her crystal sea green cat shaped eyes. Her black hair is down and sitting on her shoulders. Her lips full and dyed in a pink shiny gloss. She smiles embarrassed and glances away. Her skin is flawless fair sand, no doubt from her visits in the sun. She puts a hand to her lips exposing her white natural nails. Her slender fingers attach to a small hand. Only now realizing how short she is. The night he first saw her, she was wearing high heels, so this makes sense to him. He is in full dream of how nice her small 5’1, maybe 5’2 frame will fit in his arms.

“Maylyn. What is your name?”

“Gavin Knight.”

Her eyes widen a bit, “Alpha King Knight?”

He feels her shock and fear. She attempts to pull her hand from him, but he holds tight to her. “That’s just a title. To me, you are my Mate, my Queen, my Luna, the only woman I will every need, my reason.”

“What should you be to me Alpha Knight.”

He closes the distance between them and wraps his arms around her waist pulling their bodies to touch; “No, don’t call me that. Please use my name. I am your Mate, your protector, your lover, your confidant, your King and Alpha.

The good feelings that pass through him each second as he holds her close is like, nothing he’s felt. His body is way to honest and his wolf side howling to get her wolf’s attention.

Maylyn's eyes are only for him. His left-hand cups her face, an instant moan from here throat, while her eyes close on their own. Her body is ready, and he catches the scent fast. His lips touch her cheek; she opens her eyes to see his face so close. Able to study every line in his foam iris, she breathes deep as he eyes closes his eyes and his lips touch hers.

He opens his mouth, she is fast to follow and their tongues meet. The kiss is slow and dripping in magic; she accepts his tongue and a wave of ecstasy travels through his kiss filling her body lighter than air. His right hand moves up to her face as the kiss continues to grow deeper.

At any moment she is going to lose control and jump on him. Suddenly remembering Yvonne is with them. Ending the kiss and rubbing her lips. Matching desire and wonder on their faces. “Songbird?”

Waking from the Kings trance and looking down at Yvonne. “Songbird, don’t you want to sing a song tonight to your Sir King mate.”

Something about how she said Sir King brought back a memory. Taking a step from him and picking up Yvonne. “Maylyn? What’s wrong? Why are you afraid?”

Shaking her head, turning around holding on to Yvonne tight and running back to the pack house. 

Maylyn sits on her raft the next day, laying on her side, feet in the water and singing about him. “You give good love to me baby. So good, take this heart of mine into your hands.” Sitting up with her back to the dock, “Never too much, no, no, no you give good love to me.” Her hands getting animated, grabbing her hair that is resting parted on her chest, rubbing her neck, with her hands meeting in-between her breasts, as if they were his hands. “You give me good love, good love, good love, yeah you do, you know what I need.”

Freezing up at smelling the beach on the wind. “Maylyn.”

Turning around and seeing Gavin standing at the end of the dock. She licks her lips, remember his kiss. Chuckling with a smirk, her body is all so ready to feel the slightest part of him. 

“May I join you?” He asks.

She smiles and attempts to pick up the ore. “It’s okay, I’ll bring you to me.”

She watches him put his hand over the water and the raft begins a steady float to him.

They sit safely in the middle of the lake, facing each other. Gavin is enthralled at Maylyn singing for him, “Suddenly the wheels in motion and I- I’m ready to sail any ocean. Suddenly, I don’t need the answers, cuz I, I’m ready to take all my chances with you.”

“No wonder Lady Luna calls you Songbird. I prefer your name, Maylyn.”

He is eager to know why she ran yesterday, but this just isn’t the time to ask. He is enjoying listening to her sing and touching her legs. “Will you sing one more?”

“Depends?”

This is different. No matter what he claims about King being a title, he isn’t used to anyone giving push back. Well, no one but Trent, but she is clearly not Trent. “What does it depend on my love?”

“It’s depends on how you kiss me.”

He smiles with a chuckle; he’ll take this deal all day for the rest of his life. Leaning forward, leaving his itchy to touch her hands in his lap to meet her lean. Their lips finally touch and straight into open mouths and tongue. She drips magic into him every time she moans out of pleasure. He can smell her turn on, which in turn makes his s*x harder then it already was at the thought of kissing her again.

Her hands touch his and attach to his chest. She pulls from the kiss, gets up and straddles him. Smiling, they are face to face. She bites her bottom lip softly, making his wolf side howl to the point of deaf. She brings her right hand to touch his face. His arms wrap around her waist, keeping her close. “Our dreams have magic because we’ll always stay in love this way. Our day will come.”

He leans forward and crashes his mouth and tongue to hers. The kiss is fast hot. She moans and rubs her wet s*x against him. He growls in the kiss, grabbing her hips and rubbing her hard against him. She pulls from the kiss to moan his name, while he kisses and sucks her neck before running his tongue across her marking spot. Sharp shocks of euphoria cause moans from both of them. Running his canines over the spot increase the feelings by 10.

He takes her hands and pulls them over her head and feels the change in her. She shakes her head to shake him off. She attempts to get up. He holds on to her, “Maylyn, what’s wrong? What did I do?”

“I’m sorry. I need to get back.” She picks up the ore to row back.

“No wait. I’ll do it.”

 Standing on the dock watching her run from him, so confused as to what happen.

Hearing his brother in his mind, “Maybe it’s time we listen to that story Lady Luna wanted to tell.”

“Yes brother. I need to know what I’m doing wrong. This is the third time she’s ran from me.”

“Come back brother. I will get a meeting with the Alpha and Luna tonight.”

“Thank you.” 

Gavin stands on the dock watching Maylyn run from him, so confused as to what happen. Hearing his brother in his mind, “Maybe it’s time we listen to that story Lady Luna wanted to tell.”

“Yes brother. I need to know what I’m doing wrong. This is the third time she’s ran from me.”

“Come back brother. I will get a meeting with the Alpha and Luna tonight.”

“Thank you.”
