The Married Alpha and His Arrow

Betrayal and Dinner Pt. 1

        When Lexi woke up, she looked over to see Chase sleeping beside her. The memories of the night before hitting me like a tidal wave. I grabbed my phone. I checked my text messages. Heath had replied we could meet anytime just to let him know when. I knew I needed to be with Chase today. Not just for me. He was really shaken by what happened last night. I texted Heath back.

Me: Can we meet first thing tomorrow in my office

Heath: I’ll be there

Me: Do you sleep?

Heath: It’s after noon sleepy head 

I was startled. I looked at the time on my phone it was after noon. It was almost one. I traced my fingers over Chase’s arm. His eyes instantly opened. He smiled, “You’re beautiful.” I laughed, “You’re biased.” He rolled over on top of me. “I need you Lexi.” I smiled, “You have me Chase.” He kissed me. A soft but urgent kiss. It was as if I could feel his tension and fear from last night fading away as our lips connected. He kissed my jaw then down my neck. Once he got to my breasts he sucked on each n****e. It was insane how wet I was from that alone. His tongue darted out, and I couldn’t stop my moan. He chuckled against my skin. I was breathing heavy in anticipation. He made his way down my body. He groaned when he reached my core. “You smell so damn good sweetheart.” He gently licked my c**t. I jumped. He laughed again. He bit in inside of my thigh playfully then hard. He used his finger to play with my c**t until I was breathless then entered me with his finger. “Chase….” Chase said, “Yes, Sweetheart?” I couldn't form words. He took advantage. He was working his finger inside me. When he entered the second finger his put his mouth back on my c**t.

            I was falling apart in seconds clutching the sheets and screaming his name. He didn’t stop. He kept going until I was practically my own puddle. He smirked at me before he kissed my lips. My legs were shaking from the countless orgasms that his fingers and tongue had given me. I’d give him s**t about his smirk, but what could I say? You win the oral s*x and fingering awards? Not much of a zinger. Maybe he should smirk. He kissed me for a brief moment before he pulled back, “Do you taste yourself on me, Lexi?” I nodded. He pinched my n****e, “Answer out loud.” I groaned, “f**k…. Yes, I do.” Chase chuckled, “Do you like it when I tell you what to do?” I whimpered and lightly tapped my n****e with his palm, “Lexi? Do you like it?” I squirmed, “I…. yes.” Chase smirked, “Is that new to you?” I said, “s*x has never really been about dominance. Just getting an orgasm and stuff.” Chase laughed, “Oh…. Sweetheart. I am going to show you things. I can’t wait for you to show me thing as well.” He entered me without warning. I smirked and spanked him. He growled, “Do that again.” I kissed him, biting his lip. I used my other hand to span his other butt cheek. Can’t show favoritism. He growled and pounded into me. I scratched his butt with my nails along with his back. All that did was spur him on. He hooked one of my legs over his shoulder. I died and went to heaven and came back to my body. I swear that man chuckled as he kept on pounding away. I was a mess. I think I had actual tears coming out of my eyes from pleasure. 

            I couldn’t move when we were done. Chase got up and went to the bathroom. He came back and he picked me up. He gently laid me down in my tub that I hadn't used yet. He got in the tub behind me. Slowly I came back to myself slowly. “Well Damn dude.” I said to Chase. Chase laughed, “I have to keep my mate satisfied.” I said, “I’m so well past satisfied I’m practically a limp noodle.” Chase laughed, “Well, I heard the troll was no good in bed. I have to be better than him.” I turned and grabbed his chin, “You are better than him in every way. I don’t think he ever truly loved me. You are a good man, and he is not. I never even orgasmed with Noah inside me. You’re MUCH better at everything than he ever was. Even kissing.” Chase laughed, “I wasn’t fishing for a compliment, but I’ll take them.” I smiled, “Good.” Chase said, “What happened last night?” I sighed, “Which part? The part where I met a vampire who used to be hood? She discovered her string was a vampire king. She was best friends with my mom. She dropped a bunch of information in my lap. Apparently, my dad has a big family. My grandparents on my mom and dad's side were alive as of a few years ago. There’s a second shroud for some reason that I’ve never known about. My mom’s ex-boyfriend use to hit her and wouldn’t let her leave him. She had to go to my grandfather, the former leader of the hood, for help. If all that wasn’t enough to digest, then I was attacked by a mark from three freaking years ago. Haley showed up with her wolf. You beat up my security team, and you were a mess. Ted was a mess. Even Matt looked ready to pull his hair out. Poor Cameron looked like a wreck too. Seriously Chase. You can’t hit Kevin and Kincade. They couldn’t help it. They had a spell cast on them. You know they wouldn't leave me otherwise.”

            Chase was processing everything I said. I was wondering Where the HELL my family was when we were growing up orphans? We could’ve used that support. Assholes! I wanted to punch both sets of my grandparents. At this point, I didn’t even know what to think about all of this. Chase said, “I lost it Lexi. They didn’t know where you were. Kevin and Kincade insisted you were with Ted. Who was LITERALLY standing a few feet from them. Ted insisted you were with me. I knew you weren’t with me. Shots rang out. All I could think of was I couldn’t help you. I kept thinking what if you were shot and out there wondering if I was going to come help you. I was in a bad place.” I sighed, “I understand, but don’t hit my guards. Please.” Chase said, “I would give you anything, but I won’t lie to you. I don’t know that I can tell you that won’t happen. I can’t handle you being possibly hurt when my men were supposed to have your back. I can promise to try.” I smiled, “Well that’s a little less than nothing. Let’s go with that for now.” Chase said, “About your mom’s friend…. Are you sure she’s trustworthy?” I thought about it, “No, I’m not, but I didn’t get the sense she was lying. She seemed surprised I didn’t know about my grandparents. She was under the impression my dad’s parents took Heath and I in after our parents died.”

            Chase said, “Well, talk to your brother. Maybe he has some information. At the very least he could help you verify what she told you. Did she tell you the name of your mom’s ex-boyfriend?” I frowned, “She said she didn’t know. She said Anne knew my grandparents too though.” Chase frowned, “Anne, as in Ted’s mother?” I nodded. Chase said, “I’m not saying your mom's vampire friend is wrong or lying. Let’s just verifying what we can.” I said, “If she’s not lying it feels like the people that helped raise me have lied to me my whole life. Why would they do that?” Chase said, “They may not know sweetheart. If this is a giant conspiracy revenge plot, Anne could believe your family is dead too. Your parents could’ve wanted that. Or Anne believes your grandparents did something so awful that you and Heath were better off without them in your lives.” I sighed, “That’s true. That does sound like Anne. She would shield me from the world if she could.” Chase smiled, “Matt has very good instincts about people, and he loves Anne. Based on that, I’d believe Anne is a genuine person.” I thought about it, “I know Anne is genuine. She’s an amazing person. I believe Susan though. That’s the vampire I met. I’ve seen pictures of her and my mom when they were younger.” Chase said, “Susan Herford? King Matias Mate?” I said, “Yes, her mate’s name is King Matias.” Chase said, “She is known as being very honest. She hasn’t gotten that devious immortality streak, yet many vampires have. She would still be alive if she hadn’t been turned. Most vampires become more secretive and devious after they have been around for a few centuries. When everyone they knew has passed on.” 

            The more I thought about it the more I believed Susan. I told him, “They both seemed really nice, Chase. He even wants me to events for him.” Chase said, “That’s…. you’ll have to use my plane. I could go with you to those events. It’s out of state. Vampires tend not to run in the same circles as werewolves.” I smiled, “That would be great! King Matias said I could use his plane.” Chase wrinkled his nose, “Let’s just use my plane.” I laughed, “You don’t trust him. Do you?” Chase shrugged, “Werewolves tend not to trust vampires. I’m a trust but verify kind of guy.” I shrugged, “I think either way would be fine. If using your plane makes you more comfortable then that’s what we will do.” Chase winced holding his head. I frowned, “What’s wrong?” Chase sighed, “Ted wants to see you.” I said, “Alright.” We got up and got dressed quickly. I let Chase walk down the deck in front of me. I jumped on his back. He was surprised but laughed, “Am I your pack mule?” I smiled, “No, weirdo! You’re my wolf. My wolf who is giving me a piggyback ride over to my friend’s house.” Chase laughed, “You’d better hold on tight then.” He took off running and I squealed. We arrived at Ted’s quickly and he set me down. Matt sighed in relief, “Thank you for coming over so quickly.” I frowned, “What’s wrong?” Ted came out, “Oh good. You’re here. I cooked lunch.” On cue my stomach gurgled. Chase led me inside. Ted quickly spooned out lasagna. I raised an eyebrow. “Did you cook your brownies too?” Ted said, “And the garlic bread.”

            I said, “Ok… out with it.” Everyone looked at me surprised. I rolled my eyes, “Ted, you ONLY cook your lasagna from scratch with garlic bread, and brownies when you have news. So… spill.” Matt was confused, “Ted?” Ted fiddled with his hands, “Well…. You just know me too well Lex.” I said, “And….” Ted sighed, “My grandparents heard about Matt.” I said, “Oh...no…” Ted nodded, “They are coming to meet him.” I laughed, “So you made him your lasagna to butter him up?” Ted shrugged, “Partly.” My eyes widened, “PARTLY? Lord in heaven what else happened?” Ted said, “Well…. I want you to be my person of honor at Matt and I’s wedding/mating ceremony.” I put my hand on my chest, “Of course I will Ted.” I got up and gave him a hug. “Valentine's Day, right?” Ted said, “Girl… of course it’s on Valentine’s Day.” I laughed, “We need to get on the plans then Ted. Where are we having it? Lots of places will have Valentine’s Day booked out.” Matt said, “Can’t we have it in our territory?” I wanted to wince but didn’t. Ted said, “Haley said you might say that Matt. She’s going to conjure my dream venue. OHHHH THE PLANS LEX!” He brought out his wedding binder. Matt said, “Before we lose you two… What’s the deal with your grandparents Ted?” Ted sighed, “They don’t like me.” I said, “Ted, that’s not true.” Ted said, “They don’t like who I am. They wanted me to be like Tate. I disappointed them because I’m gay.”

            Matt growled, “Then they are not welcome here. Scratch that, let’s have them meet my mother. She will give them what for.” I bit my lip. Ted said, “My mother is having dinner for all of us. She wants your family to come so we can all meet.” Matt was surprised. I said, “When?” Ted threw me a glare, “Tomorrow.” Chase snorted. Matt said, “Oh boy.”  Just then his phone rang. Matt said, “Hi Mom.” His face immediately changed. I couldn’t understand the words, but I did know his mom was NOT happy. Matt said, “I just found myself. I don’t think it was planned for a long time. His grandparents just found out about us. Well…. I mean they are having problems with leaks. It makes sense their leader wouldn’t want that many outsiders there.” Ted said, “Oh well… darn we can’t do it.” Matt said, “One second.” Matt covered the phone. Chase raised an eyebrow at him. “Your mom called my mom to ask if she would host the dinner because the Hood said that there were too many outsiders in our group to come in the shroud. My mom doesn’t know what to cook.” I said, “We will have Sally’s partner make up something. They don’t have an event until this weekend. Ted, you call her and plan the menu.” Ted looked up at me with a grateful smile. He shot out of the room already on his phone. Matt said, “There you have it mom. All taken care. Oh… is she? Alright. Bye.” Chase bit his lip. “Lexi you are apparently expected at dinner according to Anne.” I frowned. I wasn’t sure I was ready to face her when she’d been keeping this big secret from me my whole life. On the other hand. She almost died and she was like a mother to me. Damn Noah. He ruined everything. I said, “I’ll be there. Matt you need to understand that Ted’s grandparents are the stereotypical older stick in the mud kind of people.”

            Matt growled, “So they won’t approve.” I sighed, “I actually think they will. Especially since you are the war goddesses chosen mate for Ted…. That WILL hurt his feelings though. They wanted to change him. They thought this was just a phase.” Chase asked, “Where have they been?” I said, “They run a furniture store in Nashville. They visit every year, but obviously when they heard about Ted…. They changed their normal dates around. Anne doesn’t like them.” Matt’s jaw dropped, “So they are Tony’s parents?” I nodded. Matt said, “Anne is nice to everyone.” I smiled, “She is nice to them. She just doesn’t like them. She has a line, and since she wants your parents to like her…. I’d imagine some...interesting things going down at this dinner. Honestly, I’m tempted to ask Haley to pop in. That would make it even better.” Matt said, “Haley doesn’t like them?” I laughed, “She’s never met them. She wouldn’t like them though, no. She doesn’t like people who are intolerant. She wasn’t raised here in this realm. So it doesn’t make sense to her when people can’t tolerate others. Despite what she suffered in Faerie, people were allowed to be who they were there and love who they love. She doesn't like things that aren’t fair. She also doesn’t like intolerance because she was tortured because of who she is. A partial fairy instead of a full blooded fairy. It gets her blood pumping.” Chase snorted, “Can I come to this dinner Matt?” Matt said, “Oh you HAVE to come. Someone has to make sure I don’t hurt my mate’s grandparents.” I said, “I could stop you; though… I might not want to. Anne would probably give you a standing ovation and a glass of the good stuff. Or as Haley says the hood shit.” 

            Ted returned to the table. “I just have to swing by after work tomorrow to pick up the food. It’s all taken care of. I’ll apologize to Isabella. I didn’t think this would be a problem.” I said, “We can get someone in to clean the house and set the table if she would like.” Ted sped around to my side of the table and kissed my cheek. “Lexi Scott, you are amazing, and I love you.” I laughed, “Of course you do.” Chase put his arm around me and leaned over. He whispered in my ear, “I love you too.” Matt rolled his eyes. Ted was a bundle of nervous energy. He and I talked wedding details while Chase and Matt had some silent conversation. When we were leaving Chase paused. He said, “Oh Ted. We will need you for a bit tomorrow morning. You’ll probably be late to work.” Ted looked at Matt. He clearly linked him, and Ted rubbed his hands together, “Oh yes. The Magic powers of TeleTed activate.” I laughed, “Oh lord.” We left and I asked Chase, “What’s that about?” Chase kissed me, “Nothing you want to know about.” I nodded, “Alrighty then. Race ya home!” I took off running. I had just run into the living room when Chase tackled me onto the sofa. He bit my neck lightly and said, “Aren’t we feeling naughty?” I snorted, “You're such a sore loser.” Chase laughed and started to tickle me. I squealed and tried to push his hands away. Finally I decided to fight fire with fire. I started tickling him back. We were both breathless by the time we called a cease fire. Our playful mood morphed into another type of mood as we looked into each other’s eyes. “I love you so damn much, Lexi Scott.” I smiled. I was about to say it back when his mouth covered mine. I kissed him back. We made out heavily petting each other. 

            I pushed him back to a seated position on the couch. I crossed my hands and pulled my top off throwing it across the room. Chase’s lust filled eyes only encouraged me. I yanked his shirt off as he chuckled. “We have time sweetheart. We don’t need to rip each other’s clothes off today.” I kissed him and trailed kisses over to his ear. “But I ache for you. Ever since I saw your wolf defending me; I dreamed of you. When I saw you on that platform annoying Ted as the Beta Male, I wanted you. I was ready to punch Ted if you were Matt. I almost fell out of my tree in relief when I saw no mark on your neck. You make me feel some type of way that I never have before. I want you; I need you.” I bit his neck and he stiffened. I alternated nipping at him with my teeth and placing feather light kisses down his torso. 

        I grabbed his shorts when I reached them, and he lifted his hips so I could remove them. My mouth watered. I couldn’t stop myself from taking him in my mouth. Chase closed his eyes and groaned. I swirled my tongue around his tip. His hips bucked, pushing himself further into my mouth. I used my left hand to play with his balls as I moved my mouth up and down his length. I pulled my mouth off of him and spit into my hand. Letting my hand take the place of my mouth. I gently licked and sucked on his balls. He hissed, “f**k… Lexi…” I smiled and took my shorts off with my spare hand. I stood and straddled Chase. Slowly I lowered myself on him. “s**t…. f**k…. Lexi….” Chase was gripping my waist tightly, but I didn’t go any faster. Once he was fully inside me, I moved my hands to the back of the couch. I started slower building us, but steadily increasing our pace. Chase was grunting and moaning then without warning I started using my speed. His eyes went pitch black and he growled loudly shaking the house. His hands roughly pulled my lips down to his. He kissed me hard. I never stopped moving and I screamed his name. His hands were tangled up in my hair as he roared his own release.

            We were staring at each other. Chase smirked about to start another round when we heard what sounded like an explosion outside. We both looked out the window. My jaw dropped. Noah and a witch were trying to get around my fairy charms to get inside the barrier. The witch screamed as her entire body began to convulse while she stood with her palms outstretched. Noah actually looked scared, He grabbed her trying to move her away, but he was flung backwards into a tree several feet away... Chase growled. I grabbed him, “They can’t get inside.” Chase said, “Matt is on the way.” Ted made it first though. I screamed as I saw him blur onto the scene. I grabbed Chase’s shirt and ran outside. Ted got a shot off at Noah, but Noah took off running. The witch took a hit in the thigh and screamed. I ran after Noah as I passed through my barrier. I caught Noah easily, and pushed him. He disappeared from sight. “THE f**k?!” I screamed. Ted was right behind me. Chase right behind him. Matt bringing up the rear. We scoured the area. Chase and Matt were standing at the place Noah disappeared. Chase sighed, “It’s a holloport.” I said, “They know where I live.” Chase growled, “Can they get in?” I said, “I don’t think so.” I ran back to get my phone. Chase was right behind me. He grabbed my arm, “Stop doing that without me Sweetheart.” He kissed me hard. I looked into his eyes, “You’re mad.” Chase said, “I’m beyond mad. We had him. He should’ve never gotten into this territory without being caught. When I find out how he did someone is in BIG trouble.” I said, “Do you have any ideas?” Chase said, “I’m questioning my father first.” I gasped, “Chase… he loves you. He wouldn’t do that.” Chase said, “I have to be sure.” I frowned. I didn’t think it was his dad. The local coven…. Maybe. I called Haley, “Hey bitch.” Haley answered. I laughed, “Random question.” Haley said, “Ok…. what’s the question?” I said, “Can a witch take down the protections on my house?” Haley snorted, “If you’re going to insult me, I won’t answer the damn phone next time you call me.” I laughed, “Could they think they could?” 

            Haley said, “I’m sure some have delusions of grandeur. So, sure. If I was a normal Fae; a dark witch could take down my protections. You’d know though if they tried. It would sound like a bomb going off. If the witch kept pushing, they’d get electrocuted…. they could actually die. Did someone try to take down my protections? I’ll kill a witch b***h! UGH INSULTING MOTHER f*****g BITCHES! Seriously! THE NERVE! As if I’m some regular fairy. I’M THE f*****g PRINCESS! I’m used to this s**t from the full blooded fairy’s BUT WITCHES! OHHH I will put those fuckers in ditches! NO ERIC! It’s f*****g DISRESPECTFUL! I’ve had it with them. They’ve got to go!” She was quiet for a second then exploded, “WHY WON’T ANYONE AGREE WITH ME?! DARK WITCHES SHOULD BE PUT IN f*****g DITCHES!” Chase walked outside. He was shaking in silent laughter despite the situation. Haley was good for that. She could always make you laugh no matter what was going on.
