Chapter 56 – Markus
Markus P.O.V.
All I wanted was to hold my Tuli for the rest of the night. It was almost midnight and I could feel her
exhaustion, both mental and physical. All I wanted to do was take a shower and hold her in my arms to
rid myself of the thoughts and actions that I had to make tonight and to assure myself that she was
safe. I hated torture, but I didn’t want to make anyone else bear that burden on their souls.
As and I always shared control, which helped put the fear into them. Even Gillian said he was still not
used to seeing As’ one ck
eye and my one grey.
I picked her up and was heading to our floor when I saw Gillian arguing with the 3 warriors that went to
get Marcie. sighed, I had a sneaking suspicion of what the argument was about. Gillian made eye
contact with me and I knew my night was not yet over. I sighed and kissed Celeste on the forehead.
“Evil never sleeps,” she half giggled.
“I wish I could though,” I grumbled as I headed for the office instead. I was about to sit on the couch
when I remembered what Levi
had said about the office being bugged and I turned around to back out of the office when Gillian came
in.
“Not here,” I said, ‘Bugged remember? Not sure who might still be listening,’1 finished through mind
link.
He grinned at me and pulled a small Tupperware out of his pocket. “No more bug. I’ve had people
scanning the entire packhouse for bugs. All except your bedroom and personal office. I’ve got someone
waiting outside for your permission.” I looked at the Tupperware closely, I could see the little electronic
bug inside.
“Do it now, I would like to sleep at some point tonight,” I sighed and sat down on the couch. I didn’t
want to let go of Celeste, so she
just sat up on myp. Gillian’s eyes zed over as he instructed them to scan our bedroom and office.
“We couldn’t find Marcie,” he said. And even though I had already figured as much, I couldn’t help the
growl that made its way out of my chest. “It appears she cleaned out in a hurry. The guest apartment
she was staying at looks like she ransacked it. I called the restaurant since it was still open and they
said she went back to Italy yesterday. Some type of family emergency.”
“Family emergency my ass. She knew what they had nned,” I said.
“I believe so as well. We will have to speak with the council. They are the only ones that can request
her parent’s pack to hand her
over.” I buried my face in Celeste’s hair.
I took a deep breath, allowing the mate bond to calm my rage. “Alright, it looks like that’s all we can do
today. Get some rest. We will revamp the security measures not only for everyday tasks, but also
revisit the security measures for the Luna Ceremony. I don’t want any more incidents of what happened
today. They got too far in forfort.”
“Yes, I have already asked Evergreen to revamp our electronic security measures. He’s bringing his
tools with him. He’s also
requested that while he’s home, he be allowed to stay for the full moon run as it’s been 4 years since
he’s made some rounds.”
“Alright. Good night brother. We will talk in the morning. Thank you for everything you’ve done today.”
“Of course. I only wish it would have had a different oue,” he said sadly.
“Gillian,” Celeste said, getting up.
“Luna?” He questioned. Celeste hugged him then. “Thank you for being in our lives.” When she pulled
back she smiled at both of us. “We are going to be going to Mexico next month. Please make sure to
learn some Spanish. I can help you with some of it, but I have been looking online and there’s an app
that will teach you how tomunicate. Can you do me a favor and download it? I would prefer not to
be the only person tranting.” I dropped my jaw and Celeste only giggled. “Come love. I think we’re
overdue for a shower and I am
exhausted,” she said, holding out her hand.
I took her hand and allowed her to lead me to the elevator, leaving a very confused Gillian still in the
office. As we ascended, I finally
looked at her still smiling. “Do I want to know what that was about?” I asked.
She looked at me with a twinkle in her eye. “I was just letting him know of a vision I had a little while
back. With everything
happeningtely, I’d forgotten to tell him. Being the only person that understands Spanish will be
exhausting, so I’d like him to learn,”
She said innocently.
“Mhmm, and why wouldn’t you ask me to learn it as well?” I asked, not believing the exnation
mouth.
“Well, I would like you to learn too, but you’ve got me to teach you,” she purred now. Actually f*****g
purred as she pressed her entire body against mine to stand on tippy toe and kiss me hard on the lips.
It was a distraction. She knew that. I knew that. She knew
that I knew. I knew she knew that I knew and I still didn’t care. I picked her up and she wrapped her
legs around my waist. I ran us straight
I to the shower, tripping over my pants as I simultaneously tried to close the door with my foot and
shimmy out of the stacks. Celeste
threw her head back andughed as I tried to steady us, leaving her luscious breasts heaving upwards
near my mouth. I took her n****e in my mouth through her shirt and she gasped, grabbing and pulling
my hair, tugging it closer to her breast. I growled in approval as I took
more of her breast into my mouth.
I went into the bathroom and, still holding Celeste around my waist, I turned on the shower as she
sucked on my mark, making me groan with the pleasure it sent straight to my d**k. I pulled us into the
shower without waiting for it to be the right temperature or caring that we were both still mostly dressed.
She grabbed the edge of the shower door for a moment and I hesitated, wondering if she changed her
mind when she brought out her phone from her pants and lightly threw it into the dirty hamper so it
Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
wouldn’t break. She then grabbed my hair and crushed her lips to mine again.
I closed the door to the shower and brought us both into the shower stream. She gasped as she felt the
water hit her and I dove my tongue into her mouth, getting a moan from her. I mmed her against the
wall of the shower. I extended my ws out and ripped the
pants down the sides, then pulled the fabric right off her. Without missing a beat, I took my straining
c**k out of my boxers briefs and
sheathed it into her wet p***y in one thrust, making us both moan at the feeling.
Tonight was not about making love. It was about feelingplete. Feeling myself inside her and
knowing that she was safe and that
she was mine. I thrust in and out of her with force and speed. I wanted to feel her p***y milk my c**k as
it spasmed in the middle of her
orgasm. I started feeling my balls tighten and I started pounding harder into her. I bit her mark and she
moaned as her orgasm hit her. I
felt her p***y constrict deliciously on my c**k, pushing me over the edge. I buried my face in her neck
as we came down from our high.
“Gracias Amor,” she said and giggled. Iughed.
“I know that one,” I said as I kissed her nose.
Igently pulled out and helped her stand. We removed our clothing and began the actual task of
showering. Suddenly she turned
around.
“The stuff! From the deposit box,” she said.
“It is all in the closet. Maya grabbed it all and ced it on the ind in the closet for us when we were
retrieving Ruby.”
“Oh good. It will save a lot of time tomorrow with the dress. I’m pooped,” she said and I nodded. We got
into bed and I grabbed her
and pulled her to me. Spooning her into me.
“I love you Tuli,” I murmured. I got back a gentle snore in response and I felt As’ smugness at having
satisfied our mate before
also followed her into sleep.
