The Return of the Chosen

IT IS TIME

Coco Jones-ICU

Catori was not in the mood to deal with the council, but she had to check in with them every three months. It was part of her "new arrangement of checks and balances". Although she had a ton of work to do. She decided to start with humans, which was quite an experience. The moment she arrived, she felt like a superstar. People lined the streets hearing her name. There were posters and billboards with her name on them. In truth, it was the most humbling experience she had ever experienced, as she saw children wearing t-shirts with her name. They didn't even know she was coming. These people had made campsites all over the world to praise her. She did not intend to interact, but the children felt so disappointed. She could feel their anxiety as she worked. They wanted to be acknowledged, so against her better judgment she removed the necklace. And the barrier she made to allow them to come through. "What's your name honey?"

"Addison, I wanna be like you when I grow up and save people." Catori's heart melted. She never thought of herself as a role model. "Addison, you are a special girl, you don't have to be like me, you are perfect just the way you are." She hugged her and so many other children that day. The humans had already started rebuilding and they had accomplished a lot but the joy she saw on their faces as she began to make their city whole again. She decided to start with the big cities first. So New York is where she began.

People, please stand back as I work. I do not want anyone to get hurt. As the pieces formed together, the body count began to rise. Body after body, after body, she pulled from the debris. She watched as they were hauled away. After being at it for three hours, she was drained of power. She sat and sipped water and tried to meditate in order to manage the pain of her wound. It was impossible with the helicopter and cameras constantly buzzing and snapping around her. I she understood. She showed up today with a man on a leash and basically put on a magic show. Her focus was off as well, she could not stop thinking about Zion. The fact that she was going to have to let him go was killing her. Sitting in the dome she created, she looked at Blaine, "I decided I need to get rid of you."

"What does that mean?" Blaine asked her.

"It means you remind me of everything I lost. You are a daily reminder of my pain, so I have decided to find a place to store you, so I will not have to see you."

Blaine thought this over. He decided long ago he would prefer death over life, but she refused to kill him. She wanted him to suffer. So be it, he thought. He just hoped it was not the dragon lord or Zion he was given to. Blaine was lost in his thoughts and Catori in hers. 'Maybe just give him one more try.'

'Azire he has made his position clear.'

'He has not been with us in this state. He could not possibly still choose to keep her. One more time and if he still pushes his mate on us, then we can reject him and I will never mention our bond again.'

Catori thought this over, 'Fine. He will see at tomorrow's meeting. I mean business. If he still brings his mate up, I will reject him as planned.' Catori could feel Aziras' excitement. She did not blame her. The thought of being with Zion excited her too, but he had to let his mate go. She knew better than to let her guard down. There was only so much disappointment she could take.

The next morning, she pulled her hair back in a ponytail and applied her makeup. Admiring her flawless skin, now for her outfit, she wore a crop top and decided on a pair of camouflage leggings, with some matching pumps, casual so it didn't look like she was trying too hard to get Zion or anyone else's attention, yet her ass looked like it was on steroids. She walked out grabbing Blaines leash, "Seriously?"

"What?" Catori turned to look at him.

"You are a mom. Why are you wearing that?" He said, annoyed. "I have to walk behind you all day. I don't wanna look at that s**t!" He said with disgust.

"Shut up Blaine, nobody asked you!" She growled at him.

They transported. Catori tied him up as he mean-mugged her, "Looking thirsty as hell." He shook his head, "It's so obvious what you are doing, Leigh,"

Angered, she grabbed his hair and struck him several times, "You want me to feel humiliated. I don't, I look fine, but you will feel thirsty because you get no water until I see fit. Let's see who looks thirsty, you back-stabbing piece of s**t. Your opinion means nothing to me. So stop talking." She slid her necklace on and her steely disposition returned. She punched him and kicked him several times before going inside.

She was already annoyed when she arrived after Blaine pointed out her outfit was inappropriate. She felt Zion's presence as well as Chenoa's before entering. She immediately let them know she was not interested in joining in on the meetings she was simply there to observe. So she made her way toward the back. "Damn got milk?" She heard someone comment as she passed by. The room was cold as hell so, of course, her n*****s were hard, and nothing worse than being in a room with a bunch of horny alpha'. They fed off each other. She spotted the alpha she had befriended and he waved her over. "You know how to make an entrance, Mama." he whispered in her ear.

"How so?" She asked innocently. He looked at her necklace and smiled,

"I see we have our guard up." He said, smiling at her. She liked his smile, it...soft.

Chenoa looked at her sister and grinned. She knew exactly what she was doing. Chenoa stood close to Zion and she could tell he was trying to stay cool. She always liked that about Zion. Most times you can't see him sweat. She knew how he felt about Catori. The fact that she was wearing that outfit and not standing beside him was probably killing him.

"What did I miss?" Catori leaned in to ask,

"Not," he looked down and saw an abundance of cleavage. He was wearing a cardigan sweater and he took it off, "we you be offended if I offered you my sweater?"

Catori looked up at him, "do I look cold?"

"You look edible, whether I look from the front or back. And I do not wish to appear disrespectful in your company." He said and then he stared at her intensely, waiting for her response. Catori took the sweater and slid it on.

"Wow, ain't no way I'd stand for that." One of the alpha's said.

"Where are your balls, Black?" Another said and they all began cracking jokes.

"All right boys, settle down. We're just friends." Catori's companion said,

They stood at the back listening to them go on and on about the looming threat of war over territory, the food shortage, and so on and so on as they chatted with each other. "How is your search going?"

"The same as before." He admitted

"Why don't you allow me to ask my mother?" she offered.

"No way am I interrupting the Moon Goddess with my problems." He insisted, she liked that he was considerate of other's time.

"Then you will join me in 2 days. I'm going to visit the white witches."

"You really wouldn't mind if I tagged along?" They looked at one another. Even with the necklace she felt something was there. An undeniable attraction. Or maybe she was just horny.

"And when is the Chosen going to start improving things?" As she fiddled with candy crush on his iPhone, he tapped her shoulder, getting her attention. "They're talking to you beautiful."

"Oh, what?" Suddenly, everyone turned to look at her.

"They asked when you would start changing things." He whispered in her ear.

She knew this was coming. "When I f*****g get ready to. Look, I didn't come here for this s**t. This is like AA it's mandatory for me. So let's just get some s**t clear. I do what I want when I want. If you don't like it, I don't care. Furthermore, I am disassociating myself from Mystic Moon,

"What!" Zion yelled,

"You have to be associated with a pack, Chosen or run one." The head member of the council, Dodge, spoke up

"Too busy to run one, so I guess I will be visiting each of you assholes soon."

"What about Silver Crescent," Chenoa asked,

"What about it?" Catori responded. She saw the hurt feeling on her sister's face, but for the most part, she was unaffected.

She could feel Zion's glare on her, but again she was unaffected,

"Before everyone gets their hopes up," one of the alphas said, "can she even do that? She is mated to Alpha Black?"

"She can do whatever the f**k she wants." Another Alpha said, who had a slow drag to his tone. Catori turned to look at him and was surprised she had not noticed him before.

"Amaralus Grey," he said, and damn he had the sexiest voice, "I hope you start in my territory." He said, sucking on his bottom lip. Zion said nothing as he watched the exchange. If Catori was trying to get a rise out of Zion, it was working. Chenoa reached over and rubbed Zion's arm. Catori looked up to see the small gesture and laughed. Chenoa looked back at her and suddenly it felt inappropriate although she was genuinely just trying to be friendly.

"Rules are made for a reason. However, there are none stating. The Chosen can't switch packs. She can be affiliated with whatever pack she chooses. However, I am curious to know as to why you did not choose to go to your home pack?" Councilman, Dodge asked. Everyone looked from Catori to Chenoa. Chenoa just looked at her sister and shook her head as she eased her way toward the exit, letting the door slam behind her. "I think Alpha Knight is fully capable of running a pack without her sister around. I was hoping to join a pack where I might actually be needed. Maybe one in need of a Beta."

"I suppose I'm in luck," Amaralus said to her with his deep penetrating voice.

"Suppose so," Catori said, cutting her eyes at him.

"I would like a list of your itinerary as you travel." The member of the council pointed out. Catori frowned, "Meeting adjourned, we will meet back here after lunch." Catori watched as Zion walked out without even looking in her direction. Clearly, he was pissed but her necklace was working. Because she did not care, as long as he chose his mate, he was not choosing her and that was unacceptable.

Catori stepped outside, enjoying the feel of the sun against her skin, until she turned and spotted Chenoa holding a cup to Blaine's mouth. The Alpha walked out behind her, and it occurred to her once again she had no idea what his name was. "I'm starving gonna go grab a bite. Want come?"

"No I have something to handle," She said, looking at Chenoa. She was so annoyed that she didn't even look at him as he spoke. Until she felt herself being manhandled, as he jerked his sweater off her. She looked back at him but instead saw Zion glaring at her. He shoved the sweater back at the alpha, "Yo Talmage, She is my mate and if she needs anything she can ask me, touch her again. I will break your f*****g arm." He stood there basically challenging the alpha. Talmage so that is his name, Catori thought to herself. Talmage nodded, taking the sweater he cleared out, leaving Zion there. Zion gave Catori a disapproving glare, "You gonna keep playing with me Cat, and somebody is going to get hurt." He tossed a jacket at her and she caught it, he turned and stormed off. Catori was there a moment thinking about his words, then brushed them off as she walked over to Chenoa rubbing her necklace, "Really?" She said, knocking the water bottle from her hand. Chenoa growled at her, thinking she was being a disrespectful b***h.

"It's hot out here, Catori. He is bound to have a heat stroke."

"And you think I give a f**k why?" Catori asked as she glared at her sister.

"You know why, Catori, you can pretend, but you know why," Chenoa said, her tone rubbing Catori completely wrong.

"You should walk away now, Chenoa." She said in a menacing tone.

"I think not, I think it's time we had a conversation." Chenoa said, standing her ground.

"Oh, and what would you like to discuss, hmm," Catori asked.

"For starters, this new callous attitude you have. You don't seem to have warmth for anyone," then she mumbled, "except Kreis."

"Excuse me!" Catori's eyes began to glow.

"I said except my mate," Chenoa said, "Cat, I know it hurts to hear, but he is mine and I'm sorry because I tried so hard not to fall for him but …"

Catori heard very little of what Chenoa was saying. She was stuck on. It hurts to hear she finally had to repeat her words aloud. "It hurts to hear?"

Chenoa had said so much and Catori never seemed to get past that moment. Catori stepped forward. Her wolf came forward, placing her hand on Chenoa's heart. Her sister dropped, "Careful the words you speak to me, sister. The only reason there is breath in your body is that you are my sister. But feel this pain, you say you know it hurts to hear, no it hurts to feel. IT f*****g HURTS TO FEEL! This is just a tiny portion of the pain that coursed through my body when he claimed you and broke our bond." Catori held nothing back. She released the pain, letting it course through Chenoa's body.

Chenoa felt like she had died three times. The pain was so severe, she felt like she was being stabbed with a thousand knives, "He is yours, dear sister, but it is because I gave him to you, you took nothing, so there is no need to apologize because it hurts to hear, but you damn well can apologize because it hurts like hell to feel, do you understand me?" She released her and Chenoa began vomiting. She gasped for air as she cried out in pain. Catori was shaking in an attempt to control her feelings. Catori's eyes fell on Blaine. "You are not worth the trouble. Perhaps I should have given you to the dragon lord,"

She watched as a glimmer of hope appeared in Chenoa's eyes, "Don't get excited about your bond, you are bound to him for one lifetime and I am tied to him for life. Your word does not trump mine. If I hand him over to Kreis he will be severely punished." She stood up, looking down at Chenoa as the sky lit up. Kreis landed with a thud. He had sensed Chenoa's pain. He walked over, looking at her on the ground and then at Catori. He reached out, rubbing the necklace on her neck, "how is my little menace to society?" he chuckled. Catori melted, looking into the eyes of Kreis. He always made Catori feel like she was being seduced. She longed to curl up in his arms and lay her head on his chest. She felt a tingle between her legs when he had not even touched her. Chenoa was right though and she knew it. He was not hers, not now anyway, and although she wanted him it was not enough to torture her sister. She could feel her jealousy and hurt now. She reached for her necklace but stopped as she did not want to feel his finger even graze against hers.

"Why do you call me a menace?" Catori asked, breathing in sharply.

"Because every time I sense she is in pain you are near." He responded, his words cutting deep. Although she knew it was true.

"I hurt you, I'm sorry." He whispered.

She knew he was being sincere and found it amazing how keen he was on her feelings. She nodded back as he dropped his hand. Walking over to Noah he picked her up, "Put me down!" She growled at him but he paid her no mind as he took flight. Blaine watched her as she watched them until they disappeared, "Why don't you just take both of them back if it hurts so badly?"

She snapped her head around to glare at him, "It is not that simple. It's your fault I am alone now. Don't talk to me. I'm tempted to let my dragon out to watch you burn." Catori hissed. Two alphas standing by started teasing Blaine poking at him with sticks as she stood by. "Can we take your dog for a run?" Catori waved her hand.

"Would you please just f*****g kill me!" Blaine yelled at her. As they dragged him off seconds later she watched as they tied him to the back of a pick-up truck and took up full speed with Blain running behind at full speed.

"You looking to join a pack, hmm?" Amaralus asked, leaning against the side of the building. 'Damn, I'm horny as hell. I can't even blame you, Azira.'

Catori said to her wolf.

'Oh he is doable, sexy as hell, he knows it too.' Azira said, 'we have a problem honey.'

'Yeah, what's that?' Catori asked, looking Amaralus up and down.

'Being around our mate is throwing us in heat and darling. We are strong but we can't handle all that at once.'

"Look, I'm not one to beat around the bush. I wanna f**k you, Chosen. I wanna do it really nasty too. I want you to set your fat ass on my face while I eat it from front to back. Just so you know, I was hoping for a Beta with benefits type of situation, you feel me." Amaralus said to Catori.

'Umph he's giving big d**k vibes.' Azira howled. Yeah, Catori thought they were in the beginning stages of heat for sure.

"That was the most vulgar, disgusting thing I ever heard." Catori said, looking at him. He shrugged.

"Lunch over with," Dodge yelled.

"I'm not going back there. Tell the council to put your name at the top of my itinerary." Catori winked at him, "we will discuss those benefits further when I get there."

Amaralus looked at her and smiled. It made absolutely no sense to be that fine, Catori thought. Her lady parts were going crazy, she walked over and tapped on Zion's window to Zion's Range Rover. He took another swig of his grey goose before letting the window down.

"What?" He practically barked at her.

"The meeting has started again." She pointed out.

"Yeah, why are you not there instead of here with me?" Zion asked her. Catori looked away thinking, why am I here?

Zion laughed. He opened the door to his truck, he slid out, "It's f****d up you told me you were leaving Mystic like that I would never have played you like that."

Catori cackled, "At least you heard it, I felt it." She stepped away from him. And he instinctively reached out, pulling her to him. Her scent hit his nose. "You did want something when you came over here."

"Whatever," she tried, yanking away. He was too cocky for her. She pulled away from him again but he grabbed a handful of her ass, lifting her onto the drivers seat. Within seconds, her thin leggings were ripped to shreds and his pants dropped to his ankles. "Zion!" She threw her hand up against his chest.

"Nah it's too late to act like you don't want it Cat, that's why you bought your ass over here in the first place." His thumb was already massaging her c**t in circular motions and she was dripping wet, Catori sucked in two quick breaths, "Zion," she whimpered.

"Um hmm now let me hear that p***y purr," he mumbled, and the way he rolled his tongue nearly drove her mad.

"Tell me, put it in Kitten," he said in that low husky tone that his voice always dropped on when she knew he was about to give her the business.

She was having an internal battle and she was losing. He rubbed the head of his manhood against her wet opening, and Catori began to growl. She simply could not fight it anymore, "Zion!" She growled,

"You not getting it until you asked for it Kitten," He sat sliding his fingers in and out.

"Oh, you wanna fight it hmm." He said, jerking her spread legs, he buried his head between her legs. Catori started to scream as he started to feverishly suck on her c**t. "Oh oooooh" was all she could manage to get out, unable to form words.

'Oh f**k it!' Catori said to Azira, grabbing a handful of his hair. She pulled his head up, and taking her other hand she grabbed his long hard c**k, pushing it inside her. She sucked his lip biting as she braced herself, because she knew when Zion was excited he could be as rough as Czar. "Mmmhhhmmm you bout to get it now," he grabbed her legs, squeezing so hard as he pulled her to him, only her back lay on the seat, her ass Zion held in the air hostage as he took slow long strokes. He wanted to enjoy the pleasure that only a fated mate could give. Once he found his rhythm, he dug into her like he was trying to make them whole again. Catori was so gone she lost all reason. In just a few minutes, her legs began to shake and her body began to tighten around him, Catori saw stars, as she screamed with pleasure.

"Mine!" Zion growled as he sunk his teeth in her mating spot. Catori screamed with pleasure as her nails dug into his back.

When Catori's eyes opened again she gasped, "f**k!"

She tried moving from under Zion but he would not budge. Clearly, he did not notice or did not care that they had transported and were no longer in the parking lot of the council.

Zion licked her neck where he had bitten her again. He didn't even bother to open his eyes. He was already moving inside her again and the sparks were already starting to build again as he licked her mating spot. "Zion," she moaned as she realized he was pulling at her shirt. "Damn it," she moaned as her shirt came off. He was not done. Her n****e was now in his mouth as he took a deep, slow strokes, nipping and sucking her hard buds. "Zion," she tried getting his attention but in response, she felt herself being flipped over, "ah s**t" she moaned,

She heard that growl and new Czar had come out to play. He pulled her up onto her knees and did what he loved most he gripped her bare ass, slapping it hard over and over as he plowed into her from the back. Czar, loved taking her from behind; he always had. He and Zion, like most men, had a huge infatuation with her ass. She looked back and realized his legs were not even touching the floor. The man was practically doing pushups on her. It felt so good that Catori decided to remind him of what he was missing. She started to throw it back, "Stop Cat," he growled.

"Stop what," she moaned as she started to make her ass gyrate.

She felt a hard slap, "Stop, I need this to last." He growled but she paid him know mine as he backed away she worked her hips until he was now sitting up on his knees leaning back with both hands on the floor, as it looked like she was somewhat doing a reverse cowgirl. He could not take it and before long he grabbed her t**s, pulling her back and holding her as his seed mixed with her juices and it splashed against her wall. She was not done though. She loved her Lycan because even when he was soft he had enough that she could still come, which she did all over him. She tried catching her breath but her plan did not work because, while she was still recovering, Zion had already gotten his third wind. She realized she had gotten herself in trouble; he was not going to let her go now that he had her where he wanted. This was about to be an all-day session, clearly!

They both lay panting, she tried to ease away slowly and she had almost made her escape when he grabbed her foot pulling her back. She looked back to see the man was rock hard again, she gasped, 'he going to kill us!'

'I'm ready to die!' Azira yelled, pushing her to the back. Zion bit his lips as he saw Azira come forward.

"Hey Azira, you came to play with Daddy?" he said with that cocky smirk.

"Shut up, I'm still mad at you. Don't talk, and don't touch, " She growled as she slid down on his hard pole. Zion stared, placing his hands behind his head. He lay back watching as Azira bounced up and down moaning with pleasure. Zion was trying to play it cool but she felt so good and when she lifted one leg and twirled around, standing up, she spit on his c**k, then she slid back down and went to work. "f**k!" Zion growled as he grabbed her ass and started slapping her.

"I said don't touch," Azira looked back and froze. Czar grabbed her hips , Azira knew she was in trouble. She tried pulling away but Czar grabbed her hair with one hand and her side with other and began to pump, hard deep strokes. Aziza pulled away falling flat on her stomach and Czar was on her as she ended up flat on her stomach he did not bother pulling her legs up he entered her "You wanna be hot in the ass Azira, I'm going to bust that ass open." He growled as he gave it to her hard and rough. Biting her mating spot he pinned her and took what he wanted. It was very animalistic. And painful yet pleasurable, Cat knew she would not be able to handle him, especially when he had been starved for this long. Azira yelped as Czar entered places Zion would not dare, but that was her Lycan. He felt all her holes were for his pleasure. Catori lay back because she knew once Czar joined it this was likely to last to the wee hours of the morning. "Yeah, you my little nasty girl." Catori heard Czar say to Azira. Catori moaned as he said, "I can get it wet again." His tongue was feeding off her and she realized just how much she missed her mate. Catori's eyes rolled in the back of her head as she exploded once again..

She woke hours later and saw that Zion was gone. They were in Listeria he could not have gone far. She walked outside diving into the healing waters. She was floating looking up in the sky when she saw the black unicorn fly over her with her Lycan king on its back. "You're shitting me, she said, coming out of the water. You never let me ride." the horse ignored her, nudging Zion with its nose. Zion rubbed him." Someone is jealous", Zion chuckled.

"You seemed to have that effect on woman," Catori said smartly. Zion ignored her as he already had his hand between her legs.

"Have you not had your fill yet?" Catori asked.

"You kidding?" He asked, licking his fingers, "I could play in that all day."

"You certainly have proven that among other things," she said, pouting.

"Did he hurt you too badly? I'm sorry I could not control him. He needed her." He said in an apologetic tone.

"I've felt worse pain," she admitted. With that, he turned her around examining her wound. Anger hit him, "Let me have him Cat I will make him suffer."

"No, it's my cross to bear."

"Cat!"

"ARE YOU GOING TO LEAVE HER?" She demanded to know,

"I can't, Cat." He whispered,

"So your love for her is stronger than your love for me?" She choked out.

"No!"

"Then leave her!"

"NO!" Zion watched as she turned away from him, burying her head in her hands.

"Cat, if you would just listen," he said, but she walked back inside in her bedroom and she slid on a dress.

"Catori, for goddess sake, just hear me out." His heart broke as she began to sob.

"Where is my necklace!" she said now tossing pillows here and there.

"Why is that so important now Im tying to talk to you?" He watched as she spotted itand put it on saying an incantation her deamonor changed.

"Tak it off."

"No," He blinked and they were in Mystic Moon. "It is time."

"Catori no don't do this,"

"IT IS TIME!"
