Multiple POVs

Brandon's POV

I held the glass of whiskey in my hand, staring down at it. What was the fucking point? I threw the glass across the room and yelled. Then I bolted upright. I could feel someone in the room, but the door hadn't opened. "Who the fuck are you," I growled from the shadows. She stepped forward and I gasped, falling to my knees, "Callie? Baby, is that really you?"

She launched herself into my arms - wait, how? Oh, who the fuck cares? If this is a dream, a hallucination, then I don't want to come back to reality. No words were spoken as I crushed her in my arms, pulling her onto my lap. Our mouths pressed together, our tongues fighting for dominance as my hand tangled in her hair. Fuck, she was real, she was here!

Our kiss broke as we both panted and I finally asked, "How are you here?"

She giggled, "Well, I'm not really. You fell asleep sort of, well I really think you passed out, but either way, it was enough of a chance for me to dream-walk here." I kept touching her face and hair - terrified she would disappear. "I'm here, Brandon, but I don't have much time. Marc and I are both trapped somewhere and our only way out is for me to connect to all of your powers. I can access Marc's fire, but still need to practice, Axel showed me how to do this. Now I need you to teach me something." She was practically bouncing with excitement.

I chuckled, "Wow, that's a lot of information with a lot of holes in it." She gave a playful growl. "Hmm, already channeling your bear and wolf I see." Her cheeks flushed instantly as she tried to hide her face. "Hey, none of that. The bond you formed with Sergi and Kieran might be the only reason all of us survived. Kieran, well, North's bond to his family has kept us tethered no matter how much we are hurting."

"I'm so sorry," she whispered, leaning into my chest. "I just couldn't let her hurt Owen and Axel. I never stopped to think about the cost to all of you. I'm so sorry."

I kissed the top of her head, "Don't be. You did the right thing, and despite all the pain, North and Raven have been convinced you were still alive. They both swore they could feel you touch your marks a few days ago." Her face turned an even deeper crimson. "Hmmm, want to tell me what that's all about, beautiful?"

"Well, Marc and I, um and he noticed them, and I well, I um, touched them. I didn't know the reaction it would cause - okay I knew my reaction, but at that point, I thought I was really, really dead and didn't know they would feel it." She was rambling and talking with her hands out of nervousness. I quickly placed my hand over her wrist where my mark was and she gasped.

"You mean like this, Callie?" I said in a low voice, as I began stroking her mark. She moaned softly and jerked her hips forward, pressing her core against my cock. In an instant, I shifted us and removed our clothes. "My power is emotion-based. Elementals use their emotions to control the four key elements. If you want my power, beautiful, you have to tap into your emotions." Before she could answer, I slammed my cock deep inside of her. "Let go, baby. Let it all go and then focus on the element you want to control. I'm better with water, air, and fire. Corey will need to teach you earth, but he's stronger at all four honestly." I didn't give her a chance to respond as I slammed into her again, tearing a cry from her throat. "That's it, baby, take it all in," I pushed.

I could feel her body beginning to shake. Her heart was racing as she responded to my every touch, every movement. I needed to push her emotionally to find my powers. It had taken Corey and me decades to harness them, but she didn't have that kind of time. I gripped her throat in my hand and squeezed firmly as I began to cum inside her, "Show me what you've got, beautiful girl."
