Vivianna POV
I stirred ever so slightly, somehow I had turned so Theo was spooning me, one arm under my neck and the other draped possessively over my waist. I sighed deeply, I hope this can last. I have never slept so well. I could hear his soft snores from behind me, my movement causing him to pull me closer to him. I was never a cuddler when I slept, I personally found it to be a hindrance, but I could not get enough of Theo's. I dug into him, unintentionally leading with my ass, hopefully he is not awake... "Vivianna, my restraint is thin when I first wake, and considering you are the only person who can give me a release, I would watch it" he playfully growled in my ear. So much for hoping he was not awake. I moved my hands to cover my face, despite not even facing him. He chuckled and gently removed my hands and expertly flipped me over so I was facing him. I think the proximity caught him by surprise, like it did with me during our first nap. He instinctively pulled my closer and gently placed his forehead to mine. It was a simple gesture, but it was sweet. "So beautiful" he murmured more to himself than to me as he cupped my cheek, stroking it with his thumb. I looked into his emerald eyes, they held so much warmth and desire. It was almost hard to think of them as the same eyes that could harbor so much hate. He closed his eyes and inhaled, like he was trying to memorize the moment. Boy have I been there. He seemed transfixed for a moment, like he was not in control of his actions. I had never seen him so relaxed, I was scared of ruining the moment so I just sat there, letting him hold me. Something felt different, I felt closer to him. He finally opened his eyes, "I'm sorry" he said lightly, I could tell he was battling with himself. "For?" I questioned, adjusting myself so I could lay on my hand. I was no longer in his grasp, I saw him frown, but make no moves to change it. "I should not have brought you in here, it was a mistake" he said evenly, the calculation returning to his eyes, the cold demeanor returning. I guess it was foolish to hope this would last. I nodded, not saying anything. I half expected this. I sniffled, willing the tears away. I got up and made it halfway out the door before his voice stopped me. "Vivianna" he whispered. I turned, hoping in vain that he would tell me to get back in bed with him and that he will start being the mate that I always dreamed of. He did not look me in the eyes, "please stay away from me for the next few days, I do not wish to be around you" he muttered. I exhaled, not realizing I was holding my breath. "I'm sure I can find a wolf to keep me busy" I said back, sickly sweet. He growled, throwing the covers on and making a dramatic walk to the bathroom before slamming the door. I transported myself back to my room and plopped on the bed. I snapped and was changed out of his shirt that smelled too good and too much like him. I laughed, feeling off. It was like Theo had shifted my axis, that my normal was not normal anymore. I sighed in frustration, what was his end state? What did he want from me? I shook my thoughts away. I needed to do something or I would actually go crazy. I sought out Liam, he was the Beta, I really should be getting closer with him and the fact it would piss Theo off made it sweeter. I knocked on his door. A half naked Liam answered the door, "Luna" he bowed respectfully, nervously looking behind him. "Hey, are you busy?" I asked, knowing the answer. "Never for my Luna" he bowed submissively. I heard a sigh from behind him. "Finish up, meet me on the training grounds in an hour" I said mercifully. His eyes showed gratitude. "Of course" he bowed once more. I sauntered to Sebastian's office. He had a little furrow to his brow that told me he was deep in thought, but did not particularly dislike what he was thinking about. I smiled at him, he was handsome for sure. He sniffed and looked up madly, satisfied when his eyes settled on me. "Hello love" he greeted warmly, I smiled. "I am training in an hour" I announced. He raised an eyebrow. "With Theo?" he said evenly. "No, Liam. I feel I should get to know him like I know Lucas. Speaking of, when does our sweet Beta finally move in?" I responded. He seemed to relax. I adored Lucas, he was a worthy Beta to Seb. We were very close, always training together. "Same day Garrett and Victor are coming by." he mused. I could not contain my excitement, I missed my family too much. "I still cannot believe you thought both of the Beta's were named Lucas" he chuckled. I deadpanned. "Don't laugh at me" I pouted. He got up and moved to me, he made an exaggerated gesture to bow, "M'lady, please, I require your forgiveness" he feigned desperation. I laughed and curtseyed, "I suppose I can grant it this once" I managed before falling into a fit of laughter. I loved when this incredibly serious, noble man would get silly with me. He looked up from his bow, and smiled. "You have not been laughing enough lately Viv" he said quietly. He was right. "Well, good thing I have you around to change that" I said sweetly. He pulled me into a hug. I rested my head against his chest and listened as his heartbeat increased at our contact. I squeezed around his waist and he stroked my hair, giving it a gentle kiss. It felt nothing like Theo's embrace, and I internally scolded myself for comparing the two in the first place. This felt comfortable though, the embrace of an old friend. Someone you know loves and cares for you. I relished the sparkless touch, it was not as consuming nor immersive. A deep, vicious growl interrupted the moment. I did not move, I knew who it was from and he needed to get over himself. He cannot push me away and then complain about my friendships. After a snap or two indicating Theo would shift, "Viv" Seb said lightly, clearly not liking the idea of an angry Theo as it might threaten my safety. I turned and snapped, "praestrictus" I spelled. Theo was immediately frozen, "forma humana" I said, snapping him completely back to human. "Motus" I turned his face to look at me. "I am going to release you, keep your temper in check" I said, leveling him with my eyes. "Remitto, libero" I spelled, forcing him to relax and releasing him from my hold. "I need to speak to my brother" Theo said lowly, looking anywhere but at me. "I have a wolf to meet anyways, I wouldn't wanna keep him waiting" I said nonchalantly. He tensed at the fact it was a male, but he had the good sense to refrain from acting on it. "Where?" he gruffed out. I moved so he had to catch my eyes. "That is none of your fucking concern now is it?" I formed as a question, but it really was not. He swallowed, he looked away ashamed. I moved and gave Seb a kiss on the cheek, "I will find you later" I said kindly, brushing my thumb over where my lips had been on his cheek. Theo stifled a growl. I eyed him up and down, hating how good he looked. I turned and went to the training grounds to wait for Liam. I snapped so I was in spandex and a sports bra, all black. I trudged out to the training grounds. I wanted to get a good feel for how Liam fought. Witches were rare to come across on the battlefield, typically they drew their strength from either earth, fire, water, or air. In order from weakest/easiest to strongest/most volatile it went air, earth, water, then fire. Fire was the most unpredictable and volatile, usually consuming the witch drawing from it. I was a different breed entirely, I drew my magic from myself, mastering all elements instantly. Since I was a siphon, I had abilities that reached far beyond the elemental capabilities. Siphons like myself were rare, and often killed. Rarely, rarely were they turned into vampires-- and when they were they were often hunted and killed. I was beyond rare, a witch (siphon) and wolf that turned vampire. I was a walking weapon, and I wanted to know how my new pack's Beta could handle it. I would not use my full potential, after training with Garrett and Victor I realized how volatile my powers can be after I experienced extreme emotions. They were able to train me while unlocking my potential, I could level an entire army with a flick of my wrist. No dark object could contain me like it could for a normal witch since I could just siphon out the magic, and I was not sure of a concoction that could eliminate my abilities, only knock me out. I heard Liam approach, and turned to greet him. I smiled brightly, he gawked as he approached. "Luna" he said respectfully. "Able to take care of everything?" I teased. He blushed a little. "Sorry about that, I know Alpha does not like when we take people to the castle" he said lowly. "He never said we couldn't" he quickly added. I nodded. "I am not here to scold you for your... extracurricular activities" I said, laughing a little. "I am really close with our other Beta, I wanted to develop a similar professional relationship with you" I said. "Oh" he said, looking both relieved and disappointed. "You do know I'm gonna kick your ass six ways to Sunday now right?" I teased. "I won't go easy on you Luna" he bit back. "Oh, I will have to go easy on you Liam" I laughed. "I will not use my tribrid magic, but elemental magic is fair game. I want you to be prepared in case you come across one on the battlefield" I explained. He nodded. We took our fighting stances, he was pretty good, could be lighter on his feet. I easily was able to maneuver away from him, showing off a few gymnastic moves in the process. Him not being so light on his feet indicated he would be a heavy hitter, if we managed to land a hit. He dodged air and earth magic easily, muddled through water magic, and botched execution on fire magic. Lucky for him fire magic was so rare, plus they would have me now and I would go toe to toe with any witch that threatened my packs. By the end of our session he was drained, sweating profusely, and slightly singed. "Let's go back to the castle and I will take a look at you" I offered gently after he transformed back into his human form and put his shorts on. I informed him of the ways he needed to improve as we walked back, he agreed, eager to be better. We entered back into the castle and into his office. I could sense Theo in his nearby office, it was like after we had spent the time together the bond was strengthened and enhanced. It almost irritated me. Theo's door was open, I half hoped and half prayed he would not come in. "You really are something amazing Vivianna" Liam mused. I smiled back. "I think you are the first lady to knock me on my ass, let alone as many times as you did" he chuckled. "I just want you prepared in case you ever come across someone like me" I said gently. "There is no one like you Vivianna" he responded immediately. I could sense the flirtatious undertone. "LIAM" Theo barked. "He's busy" I responded tersely. I closed my eyes and placed my hands on Liam's chest while focusing on his wounds. I heard stomping, his voice breaking my focus. "I called for my fucking Be--" he started before growling when he saw me touching him. "I am trying to heal him from our training session" I said calmly, trying not to provoke him. I was scared to touch him honestly. He growled more, I sighed. I healed Liam's wounds and transported him to his room with a snap, the sense of impending doom sharpening my abilities. I turned to a furious Theo, the bones cracking as his beast surfaced. He blinked a few times trying to process the scene in front of him and why I am suddenly alone. I approached him slowly, rubbing his chest and guiding him to sit down. He complied, I went to take a step back, but he pulled my hand, so hard I fell into his lap, straddling him. The tingles were back with a vengeance. "Theo" I moaned as his hands instinctively gripped my waist. He pushed me impossibly closer, nuzzling into my neck and calming himself. He wrapped his arms around my waist, I could feel his very large member pressing against my thigh. My pussy throbbed for him in a way that I had never known. He inhaled deeply, "Vivianna" he groaned, clearly smelling my arousal. I went to scoot away, but accidentally grinded against him instead. He pulled me impossibly closer, nipping at the juncture between my collar bone and neck where he was to mark me. I magicked myself back to my bedroom. I needed to leave before he could reject me or tell me what a bad idea it was or how it was an accident. I needed to get my shit together before Garrett and Victor arrived.
