Shadows from the Past - Book 2 of To Be Claimed By Her

Chapter 28

Sang

My fingers ran through Cade's fur as he nuzzled my feet. I was furious at Deimos for his punishment and had gone on quite the destructive rampage. To make matters worse, Kota was the only one I really had. Luke and Nate were stupid dogs, North was in a case wherever Nyx put him, Victor and Gabe were in interdimensional prisons, Silas despised me and I couldn't return to the colony even if I wanted to, Owen was nowhere to be found, and Sean, well I don't even want to think of him now. That stupid bitch had ruined everything, yet Deimos and Erebus continued to fawn over her.

Cade yipped when I tugged at his fur, getting a wonderfully wicked idea. "Sorry boy, but I think you deserve a little playdate," I grinned.

Erebus

Deimos had been angry and distracted for days after he came out of his chambers. He'd compelled the fairy back into her kitten state.  Much to my glee, I found her wandering the tunnels near Sang's chambers one afternoon.

"Come my little shadow," I called to her and she quickly scampered toward me. I could feel Deimos magic flowing through her as well as his claim that shined brightly. Too bad for him that my shadows still lingered as well. She couldn't refuse me now. Her eyes looked up at me with complete trust as I lifted her chin. They swirled with flecks of red, black, and purple as the magic inside her shifted and pulsed. "Your master shouldn't have left you unattended, my little shadow. Lucky for you, I want to play a game." She nuzzled my hand, not resisting when I clipped a leash to her collar.

I led her down the tunnels to Sang's rooms, knocking quickly. "Erebus, what are you...holy fuck is that her?" she gasped looking down at the creature wrapping around my legs.

I chuckled, "Yes, apparently Deimos has a thing for kittens. I thought you might like some time with our little creature since she cannot speak nor refuse me any longer."

"Wait, what do you mean she can't refuse you, and why can't she speak?" The blonde woman ushered us inside, then looked at the creature in fascination. "Is she human or cat, I really can't tell."

"Both. Deimos keeps her body human with the exception of the ears, however, her humanity has been pushed deep. She thinks, acts, speaks, and feels like a kitten. All inhibitions and fears are gone. The last time he did it was to help her come to terms with her submission to him. I'm assuming they had a tiff and this is his way of reconditioning her yet again. Gods knows they fuck like crazy. They didn't leave his chambers for an entire week." I have to say, for as much as I loathe the demon, I also had to admire him.

Sang gave me a skeptical look, "So why bring her to me? You keep saying you want her for yourself, so why bring her down here?"

"Actually, I found her just a short distance from here. He let her out to wander and I think she got lost. I thought you might want a chance to play with her - no repercussions." I knew Sang wanted nothing more than to rip the fairy to shreds, but if I could sate her anger even a bit, then she might still be of use to me.

Sang seemed to ponder the possibilities, then hollered out, "Cade, come here." I bristled as the werewolf trotted into the room, his nose sniffing the air. He immediately focused on Eveleen and me. He growled at me, then nosed at Eveleen who hissed and swatted at his nose when he got a bit personal. He whimpered, then licked her face. Again she sputtered and hissed. Apparently, kitten Eveleen had no idea who the werewolf was. No wonder Deimos put her under, she can't recognize her bonds like this - fascinating.

Wait, does that mean she doesn't recognize me or the girls either? Oh, this was too perfect. She really was bound to me by shadows already, and the more shadow I corrupted her with, the less she would be able to resist when her humanity returned. Deimos just handed her to me on a silver platter and he has no fucking clue.

"She doesn't recognize him," Sang noted, "but he does."

"I'm realizing the same thing," I told her. "What are you thinking?"

She gave a wicked grin, "I'm thinking you may not want to watch, but she won't be harmed permanently. I just need to shift the spell a touch," she muttered and before I could intervene a gloss of magic coated Eveleen and her body began to tremble as she whimpered. A wrenching sound filled the room and when the mist cleared, she stood on wobbly legs - a beautiful silvery-white wolf. Sang clapped in glee. "I really didn't know if it would work."

I rubbed my face, "I just hope you can undo it because I sure as fuck am not telling Deimos you turned his kitten into a dog. So now what?"

She laughed, "Now I let the werewolf have a playdate." She tugged at my arm as Cade moved closer to Eveleen who was whining in confusion. We moved to the edge of the room and watched as he nuzzled her neck with a low growl and released a spray of pheromones. Her wolf form sniffed the air and whined more, but now she was responding with her own nuzzles.

It was fascinating to watch her submit to the werewolf. Instinct took over and within moments, he had mounted her, his fangs deep in her neck as he forced her down. She made whimpers and soft growls as he took what he wanted. Her form thrashed as he reached his release, growling and huffing loudly until he finally fell out of her. He nosed the fluids spilling from her and lifted his head with a long howl as she lay panting and disoriented.

I looked over at Sang to see her looking completely insane. No way could I trust her to help me take down Deimos. I'm not even sure I can trust her to not try and kill both Eveleen and myself.
