Three Weeks Later

Jasper

I was walking towards my coronation in the grand hall, and after realizing I was mated to the King and Queen, I was speechless until I had to defend myself against killing a Lord in his court. He released us and had the Lord investigated; it would seem that he was blackmailing the small town and forcing Christie into mating him. Elijah paid off the family debt, and she received any riches he had because she was technically still his wife, now his widow. He gave the family titles, and her father is now part of the court and running the town; Christie found her fated mate three days ago, and it turns out she was Malvoc's mate. I was happy for her and attended their wedding in a private setting yesterday. I was nervous, I never expected to have two mates because I was a commoner and they were Royalty.

When Elijah called me to talk to him after the meeting, I didn't know what to expect, but when he touched my face and kissed me, the tingles from our bond exploded. I knew it was true; he was my beloved, and so was Marie, I could hear the conversations coming from inside the grand hall. The double door opened, and it got silent; Marie and Elijah were waiting for me on the stage. Everyone bowed as I walked past, and I saw Christie, who smiled at me; she was beautiful, wearing her little tiara, which was a sign that she was higher in court, being mated to the high Elder who was performing the ceremony. Marie and Elijah were wearing their crowns, and I saw mine was on a pillow beside the High Elder; I was shocked that a mere commoner was going to be a King Consort. I wish my parents were here to see this, and my cousin disappeared a long time ago; however, I don't think that he is dead.

I reached the stage, and the ceremony began; there were many speeches before I knelt and had the crown placed on my head, and blood was shared, tying us together in a ritual. I was led to the balcony as the crowd cheered, where both Elijah and Marie marked me, and I did the same to them, feeling their love pour into me. The party was in full swing, and there was enough to eat and drink; I saw Elijah get a link before he linked Piot and Kolie. Piot looked at his pregnant wife as she smiled, jumped up at the commotion; then, I saw a witch open a portal, and King Roman appeared. The crowd grew silent, and many vampires hissed; I heard a link from Elijah, saying to everyone, "Stand down, no need to fight unless we have to." King Roman walked to Elijah with his Beta behind him, taking some fruit off a tray, and said, "Sorry, I am late, but I didn't receive my invitation, Elijah."

Elijah said, "Only people of importance were invited to my mating," and everyone snickered. Roman turned to see Queen Marion, King Emile, and his brother Jared; Levi stayed back to run the Kingdom in their absence. He was shocked that even King Barron attended, who hated his ass; Princess Polly sat with her brother, and he winked at her. Barron said, "Do that again, and I will forget you are King," before King Roman smiled and said, "Relax, I was being friendly," looking at Piot's wife. "Since you are all here, I need to renew the treaties since the death of the former King," he said; there were loud growls in the room. Roman smiled, knowing he had gotten everyone's attention, and turned to Elijah, mind-linking him, as he didn't want us to hear, but Elijah opened his link to Marie and me.

He said, "Since your brother is mated to my daughter, I don't mean you," and Elijah's eyes turned to the deepest shade of red, feeling his anger. Emile said, "If I wanted to deal with you, I would, but we are not here to talk about treaties, so unless Elijah asked you to stay, you can leave." Elijah signaled for Piot to get him a glass, and he sat at the table with his Beta, Axel; Elijah said, "I will fill you in later, love," through the link, and Roman surprisingly behaved and had fun. As the night wound down, the Kings started to leave through the portal Queen Marion made; Roman was talking to Piot and his wife in a room. I felt a hand go around my waist and knew it was my husband behind me, saying, "We need to complete the mating, my beloved," and I followed him and Marie to our quarters.

I was livid that Elijah didn't send an invitation to his wedding and the coronation of his second mate; I need to get him to treat me differently for all the other Kingdoms to follow. Elijah, apart from Emile and Cayden, had one of the largest armies in Ravena, and I would rather they were all on my side. I know the wolves don't particularly love the vampires because they could turn on us in an instant, one of the reasons I get some wolves to flip on Aidan. The reality of it is, I would rather have them as allies than enemies; I haven't gotten in contact with Dominic because, although he may not have a huge army like the others, his army was a whole lot more vicious and deadly. Barron can be ruthless as well, but I will have him under my thumb soon enough, and Axel returned with a spell that a witch gave him.

So we went to the wedding, but I made sure I used the spell the Elders taught me to contact Elijah before he took it the wrong way and killed Axel and me. I knew I sent my daughter to the bloodsuckers, but they came in handy; I was glad I didn't kill her when I found out that her mother was pregnant. I never told anyone about my daughter, not even my former best friends, as far as anyone knows, she is just a girl of status I used to bargain with Elijah for the treaty. I was going to let his men go anyway because I wasn't ready for war with Elijah; Piot was supposed to be at the coup, but sent men instead. He would have been a bargaining chip, but Kenna came in handy eventually; I found out about Piot going through Aidan's vault in his former office. Piot was Elijah's little brother, born a few months after Elijah; Johrir had a mistress unknown to his wife, whom he sent away after she gave birth, unless I am reading it wrong.

Only Malvoc knew about it and eventually told Elijah, who had him brought to his court and made him third in command. No wonder his aura was a lot stronger than the other third in commands I met; he was a son of the former King. I interrupted the great dinner, and I was surprised they didn't show much hostility towards me, so I took that as a good sign; I wanted to get under Elijah's skin a bit, but he didn't take the bait. I honestly wanted to meet his mate, who was a commoner before being coronated, and looking at Jasper, he seemed quiet and mild; maybe I could use him in the future and play into his insecurities as a commoner turned Royal. After everyone was leaving, the talk was successful as everyone agreed to meet with me except Barron, but I would work on him later, maybe getting a taste of his beautiful sister would change his mind.

I went into a room with my daughter, and we greeted each other; she was making me a grandfather, and I was proud that my plan worked. I asked, "Does your husband love you, Kenna?" Before she could answer, he said, "Of course, I love my wife," putting his hands around her from behind, and I knew I had Elijah by the balls; his brother would do anything for his family, even if that meant keeping Elijah in line to keep the peace.

Jasper and I were both double penetrating Marie in our s****l haze; we fed from each other, driving us wild with ecstasy, Marie called both our names, and it turned me on more. Marie was riding Jasper's c**k, and I was in her ass; Jasper and I thrust in and out of her in sync with each other. She was a moaning mess, and the smell of s*x was strong in the air; our sweaty bodies collided in the heat of the night, and as we all c*m together, completing the mating, we were contented. Marie was fast asleep between us as the sun rose; I felt the sunlight on my feet, but I heard a noise and jumped up. Jasper dashed to a dark corner of the room, saying, "Close the drapes, my lord, the sun." I closed my eyes, forgetting that he was not a day walker, but since my mark, he could walk in the sun, I forgot to tell him.

I felt his heart beating fast; he was quite scared, and I smiled, walked over to him, not trying to wake Marie, and whispered in his ear, "Trust me, Jasper." He said, "Sorry, the sun, I had a scare as a child, I almost burned to death." I held his hand, asking, "Do you trust me, my love?" He smiled, and I walked with him outside, feeling the sun on our naked bodies; I said, "I should have told you that since you are my mate and wear my mark," pointing to his neck, "You can walk in the sun," and I planted a kiss on his lips as it got heated. He hugged me, sighed, and kissed my neck; he said, "This is all new to me; I never expected to be mated with you," and I smiled, turning him around and grabbing his hardened c**k. He moaned; I was hard and entered his sweet asshole after making sure he was ready for me, and I slowly started thrusting in and out of him.

I waited, getting him adjusted to my size as he took deep breaths; our tingles were intense, and before we knew it, we were both moaning in s****l bliss as the sun got higher in the sky. I bit down, drinking from him as he pumped his c**k to completion, plastering the wall with his seed. I felt my release approaching, holding his hips in place as I pounded faster and harder with the slapping of skin echoing in the wind. I moaned, "f**k," as I was close, he yelled, "Elijah," as I went deeper to the hilt cuming deep within him as we rode out our orgasm.
