The Beast's Virgin Claim

It was as though time had stood still as piercing tension enveloped us in a cloud of anticipation whilst we patiently waited for the two pairs of mates to make their final decision. They simply stared at one another as their chests heaved for they struggled to come to a conclusion as each was drowning with their own monsters who set fire to their minds and hearts.

They were fighting a bloody war within themselves one which their gift from the moon had triggered.

"If you need time, as Alpha I can give you four that. Ragon and Elriam, you both can stay here for a while if that is what you wish. I shall give you my permission." Phobos spoke his voice was a thunderous storm in the eerie silence and I quivered to the dominance he radiated.

Ragon slightly twisted around to glimpse at the female whom he was shielding with his towering frame but she had her face tilted to the ground obscuring herself from others, her thick locks covered her stunning features as Elriam's shoulders shook and small whimpers departed her shut mouth, her heart stripped bare for all to see and we did indeed.

We discovered the sharpened knife Drakho had plunged deep into her beating organ and the raw agony she felt for his betrayal. Her mask of strength shattered and tumbled to the ground to expose the vulnerable female breaking apart on the inside.

"Elriam." Ragon's voice was faint almost a calming whisper as he summoned her.

"It is not what you think, my female!" Drakho's clenched fists tremored and his shoulders slumped as he watched his moon blessed bleed to his sins. Of course, he did not consider his actions as a sin for on our lands it was not deemed so but for Elriam it was different.

She saw her male's seed on another female's lips and that very haunting image would plague their mate bond forevermore, she can never forgive him for that.

Elriam's shaking palm clutched onto Ragon's shirt and weakly tugged on it. She needed him, she needed his warmth to weaken the pain of her soul and give her the relief she desperately sought after. Ragon instantly surrendered to her wishes as he fully whirled around and gently pulled her into a tight embrace his palm patted her back as she sobbed noiselessly in his arms.

It was instantaneous when Moira and Drakho let out roaring growls saturated with jealousy and possessiveness to their closeness. Moira's orbs enlarged in surprise and mortification as she clamped her palm over her mouth astounded by her own actions that were accompanied by her wolf's as though it had been the first time it had occurred for her.

Ragon shifted his uncaring stony eyes to regard his female, the playful loving male was buried and replaced by a heartbroken callous one.

Moira visibly flinched to her male's pitiless gaze whilst Drakho kept his ablaze eyes on his female eyeing her as though she was the goddess on earth, his goddess. "What is your decision?" Phobos questioned once more as he got impatient wanting to return to our cabin so he could spend some time with his male who was dozing soundly nestled to my bosom.

Ragon peeked down at Elriam who had her face pressed against his chest and fleetly glanced at an upset Drakho who wanted for nothing more than to hold her and soothe her distress. "We shall stay for a while.

I will be taking Moira and Argus back home with me and I suppose they need time to pack and say their goodbyes." It was not his only reason for choosing to remain on our lands, I am certain he thought that though Elriam and Drakho did not begin on good terms there was still a chance for them, unlike Moira & him.

Ragon wanted to give them time to mend their fresh bond he believed his friend Elriam deserved that.

"Then so be it, I will speak with my brother. Drakho is my beta, he will show you to some vacant cabins you can dwell in."

"Thank you, Alpha Phobos," Ragon said as he gave my male a low bow of respect as Elriam took a step back from his heat and brushed her tears with the rear of her palms. Her cheeks held a mild hue of pink that indicated to us all of her embarrassment for she revealed her vulnerability for all witness.

"Elriam," Drakho whispered her name filled with tenderness pleading her to allow him to touch her. It must be torture to meet your mate for the first time but not be able to feel their flesh beneath your fingertips.

She recoiled to his soft tone her need to feel him engulfing her from within as well but when her eyes found the terror-stricken breeder huddled with the rest those very eyes grew pained and raged with a vengeance.

"No. You will never touch me, I will never allow you to do so. I will remain here until Ragon stays and will leave with him. You sicken me." She spat and Drakho glowered at her as his female's hateful words struck deep rending the defensive guards of his soul as a thunderous snarl exited his lips. He bared his teeth at her in warning and she did the same with him.

She would not back down even to the authority that emitted from him. But Elriam wielded her own sword for she was once Lumina's beta and later Deimos's top warrior.

"You can fight me all you want and for what you saw I shall apologize. But know this I will touch you, I will kiss you, I will love you." As his golden rimmed eyes studied her flesh from head to toe with an amatory slowness he declared, "And I will undoubtedly fuck you, my female."

Her breath hitched to his words and she swallowed down the feelings that bubbled up to his filthy truth. The impact he had on her was clear as a smoothened diamond, if she halted running for even a second from him he would arrest her in order to mercilessly ravage her being.

"You can keep dreaming." She stated as she turned away from him her gaze fixing on the little one in my arms and she finally greeted me with a warm smile and delicate eyes. Certain times I saw Lumina in her and as selfish as it may sound I wanted Elriam to stay. For if she did I knew I would have a friend for life.
