And Then There Were Four

One may have thought my mind was in the gutter, but it wasn't. I enjoyed Trixie's company even though she was energetic at times and often annoyed others around her. To me, I found it comforting to be around her. Maybe the mate bond pulled me closer to her, or maybe it was just because she was a nice girl and our conversations were usually entertaining.

Taking a moment to consider what I offered her, she smiled, nodding her head with her hands clasped behind her back. "Sure, I mean, from what I heard, you suck at magic."

Laughter escaped me at her words, and though at one point in time I would have been pissed by what she said, I wasn't. She had a point, and in all honesty, my magic was nowhere as strong as my sisters.

"Well, maybe with your tutoring, I won't suck."

As we walked up the steps to the building Cassie and I stayed in, I carried on the same casual conversation I had with her before. From magic spells to summoning objects, she filled me in on everything going on and also what I was doing wrong. "No, you're not supposed to do that. You need to take deep breaths before releasing..."

"Is that right?" I asked her as we stepped into my room. Her mischievous eyes rolled as she shoved me a little and began to let her eyes scan my room, taking in every inch of what I had around that gave way to who I was.

"You have so much stuff," she murmured, letting her fingers dance along the photos on the wall and the items on my dresser. Since being here, I had been able to get someone under Odin to acquire a few more things from my home, including family photos and sentimental items.

All things Cassie had no idea I had gotten, seeing as she was being a bitch to me.

"Yeah, I had someone collect some things for me from my house," I replied, averting my eyes due to the guilt slowly forming thinking about Cassie.

"Your sister doesn't have any photos or anything," Trixie murmured as she turned to me. "You had these brought recently?"

Confusion caused me to furrow my brows as I tried to understand how it

was she knew I had recently

these things. I hadn't let anyone know I did simply because it wasn't their business, but for her to know this meant she had been in my room before. "How would you know?"

"Because I was the one who decorated it to begin with," she said as a smirk fell across her lips that made my gut twist with anticipation.

My entire life, I had waited for my

mate, and since I had first laid eyes on Trixie, I had avoided taking her as mine. I avoided letting our

relationship bloom because I

wanted something unattainabelnet

Something fate didn't mean for me to have. That guilt alone ate at me, but now with her standing before me...

I didn't want to hold back. I didn't want to waste any more time with her.

Rushing forward, I let my hands grab the side of her face as I crashed my lips against hers. Her soft, plump lips moved against mine as our tongues battled for control-the taste of her driving my wolf crazy as I sought to have more. Walking her backward until the backs of her thighs hit the bed, she fell, panting as she looked up at me, her hands helping her crawl backward a bit until I came down over her. My body hovered over hers as I took in every inch of her face.

"I want you," I whispered, watching a smile cross her lips I had been worried about seeing. Part of me thought in the end, she might be disgusted about being my mate, but looking at her now, I knew that she wasn't.

"I wondered how long it would take for you to accept me," she whispered as her hands reached up to the sides of my face, slowly pulling it down towards her own. "Let's not wait anymore."

Letting my lips gently press against hers, our tongues danced in a gentle motion, my hands running up and down her body as I relished in the moment with her. The moment I had waited my entire life for. The moment I would be with my mate and claim her as mine forever.

Piece by piece, our clothing was stripped from our bodies and fell to the floor. Our limbs weaved together in a battle for dominance as I made her moan over and over again. Her back arched as her perky round breasts bounced with every thrust I made inside her.

She had accepted me, and as I

locking us in place, I pulled her up closer to my body, impaling her harder and harder until she was crying in pain, begging for her. release. With a scream of ecstasy and a roar of pleasure from my throat, I sunk my teeth deep into her neck and marked her as my own.

A pixie for an Alpha and a mate for a lifetime.
