The Hybrid King, The Rise of the Kingdoms

Chapter Twenty-Six

[P.O.V. Zyston Woods]

Funerals are one of the worst things. What is even worse is when the person who is close to you ends up dying. After the battle was over, we didn't get to bring our dead home to be buried. No, all the bodies had to be burned. So that Alexander couldn't bring them back to life. That including my elder brother Vincent.

Getting home that night after the battle. I had to tell Vincent Mate, Emily, that he died and how it all happened. What broke my heart the most is that Emily is eight and a half months pregnant. Vincent did even have time to hold his new son. Emily cried and pounded on my chest. After telling her, I just held her tight the whole time while she did. Till the point, she had no energy left to stand. Even then, I held her tight.

News fled in the newspapers and t.v. on the Winery being burned down. Reporters have been bugging my family and myself. Trying to get the information. On what happened with the Winery and my brother. The one thing I hate most about being rich. There is no privacy. Because of having to keep my appearance in the human world. I had no other choice than to have a funeral for Vincent. All his human friends and colleagues came to his funeral. Even though I was burying an empty casket, it gave Emily a place to visit him. For that reason alone made me glad we did it. For all the courageous pack members that fought. They too got a resting place for their loved ones to visit them.

As for Adriana and me, after the battle, we fought our own fight. Ever since that fight, I haven't really talked to her. She sleeps in our room at home. While I have been staying at the Pack House. I'm too damn angry at her, along with Katrina and Jolene. My high-rank women of this pack have been sneaking around. Instead of putting their trust in their own Mates. They acted like children going on a treasure hunt. I have no clue what Medrick told Adriana. Before she ripped off his head. I'm afraid of what he could have said. I also didn't want her to see that dark side of me.

It's been a week since this all happen. I've been going crazy about not having Adriana by me. My Wolf and Dragon are too. Wearing a black suit from a media conference, I did this morning. Answering question's about the Winery, Vincent, and of course, where the company will go next. It's now late at night, Sitting in front of the fireplace. Looking at the fire as it burns. My suit jacket hangs on the back of the chair, and my shirt is unbuttoned. Glass of bourbon in my hand, trying to drown some events that have happened. On days like these, I wish I could get drunk.

The bedroom door opens, and the most delicious smell invades my nostrils. Looking at the door, Adriana walks in. Wearing a black leather dress jacket. It is the same length as her dress. The jacket wasn't zipped instead, it was opened. Showing off her beautiful curves in a tight purple dress. It stops a little past mid-thigh, just enough before it shows the top of her stockings. Ankle black high heel boots cover her feet. Her gorgeous now shoulder-length black hair framed her beautiful face. 'Damn! does she look sexy, and just the smell of her makes my dick twitch.' Thinking to myself.

"You're not going out like that, are you?" My voice coming out lustful and dark with a hint of warning.

"No, why do I look bad?" She asks quietly.

"Quite the opposite; you look insatiable." Her cheeks turn red from blushing. Then, lightly chuckling from knowing the effect I have on her. "What do you need, Little Light?"

"Can we talk?"

"Of course, we can." She takes a seat next to me. We both wait in awkward silence. Then, getting ready to say something, she speaks first.

"I'm sorry... You have never lied or broken a promise to me. Because of that reason, I shouldn't have gone behind your back. Instead, I should have waited for you to tell me what was going on. For that, I am sorry." She sounded broken. "For now on, I promise I..." I know where this is going.

"Stop, don't promise me you won't." Cutting her off, she looked a little baffled. Taking a deep breath, placing my glass on the floor and kneeling in front of her. Looking into her eyes, they were watery.

"I only tell you not to promise me this. Is because that is part of who you are. Your curiosity and adventurous personality. Are some of the many things I have fallen in love with you. Was it wrong to sneak behind my back? Yes, it was, but don't promise me you will stop being who you are. I don't want you ever to stop being who you are." Telling her in a raw voice. "I'm sorry, as well. I should have told you things sooner. I wanted to tell you little by little I didn't want to overwhelm you with everything that is going on."

"You love me?" She asks with tears rolling down her cheeks. With a small smile on her face. Then, wiping the tears off her face returning the small smile.

"Out of all the things, I said that what you caught?" Lightly laughing at her.

"The most important part of it, Yes, and I love you too." Grabbing back her head, bringing her lips to mine. 'Damn! I have missed her soft, pink lips.' Pulling her lips away, we both were breathing a little hard.

"Does this mean everything good between us?" She asks breathlessly. Chuckling at her question and placing her lips back on mine.

The kiss deepens. She pushes my shirt off then wraps her arms around my neck. Pulling me closer to her sliding her tongue into my mouth. Trying to win the dominance game, our tongues are playing. Peeling her jacket off, unzipping the back of her dress. Kissing down her jaw and neck as I take her dress off. Her breathing gets heavy, with little moans escaping.

With her dress around her waist, her beautiful plump breast was behind a tight sexy black bra. Kissing and lightly sucking on her chest, she let out a low moan. Wrapping her legs around me and her arms around my neck. Picking her off the chair, pressing her back against the wall.

Her breath gets even heavier, following a gigantic smile. Pressing her lips against mine, our kisses turned into a deep passion. Carrying her to the bed, laying her down, kissing down her chest. Placing my lips around her nipple. While my fingers play with the other. Sucking and pinching her nipples, she arches her back. Letting a pleasurable moan out, encouraging me to continue. Kissing, sucking, and nipping down further, peeling the rest of her dress off along with her black matching underwear.

Leaving her in nothing but her stocking and boots. Standing and admiring the view, she moves her arms to cover herself.

"Don't you dare!" Growling out to her. She moves her arm back to her sides."You have a gorgeous body. Adriana never hide it from me." Telling her honestly and lustfully.

Taking the rest of my clothes off and taking her boots off. Placing kisses down her legs while peeling her stockings off. Putting my lips and tongue on her core. Sucking and licking her sweet juice. Her moans filled the room. Her back arched with pleasure. Her hands pulling my hair, keeping me in place. Torturing her until she was closing to cumming. Kneeling between her legs, pushing my erection into her. All the way to the brim, she lets out a small moan. Moving my hips in her, we find our own rhythm. Taking many positions and going for a few hours. Getting lost in one another, getting close to my satisfaction, and with her top of me.

"Zyston, I want to mark you." She says in a breathless moan.

"I'm all yours." Answering back with a breathless voice. Then, getting closer to our releases, flipping over with her underneath me, she bites down, marking me.

"Fuck!.." Cussing out in pleasurable pain. Biting down on her mark, we both have a tense orgasm together. When it was over, we lick each other wounds. We finally completed our bond, everything that we feel. It is now even more intense. The sparks, feelings, and we also can communicate through our mate bond in long distances.
