Know Your Heart

Chapter 45: Her last mate

A/N: I hope you all enjoy it!

Jadid's Pov:

"Hades!", The shrill voice of a female I should have never given the time of day reaches my ears.

I ignored it as I finished reading the letter, my king sent me. I'd need to pack and get back as soon as possible, which came at a good time since I finished cleaning up.

The doors to my office burst open and in walked the owner of the voice as the doors slammed shut behind her. I gave her a cold look through my long hair that stopped her in her tracks completely.

"Why are you interrupting me?", I growled at her as she flipped her hair back trying to regain her composure.

"You're cheating on me", She stated as she crossed her arms under her chest, "I deserve an explanation"

I pulled the stray hairs behind my ear before I arched an eyebrow at her before I laughed, "You tricked yourself because I never once said we were in a relationship. If anyone is cheating it's you who cheated on Snake"

She blinked a few times before stomping her foot like a child, "I, that's.."

I stood up from my chair and teleported behind her, lending down to whisper in her ear, "But don't worry you won't face any wrath from your actions, since I erased his memory of you, though I suggest you leave this town and never return for your own sake"

Slipping my hand in my pocket I pulled out a bulging wad of cash and placed it in her hand, "This should help you get started on your way, Betty."

"My name is Delia", She hissed at me as she turned around, swinging a hand to smack me in the face.

I caught her hand and sighed heavily, "I don't care. Thanks for the information you gave me. Now leave"

Tears swelled in her eyes, releasing her hand, I snapped my fingers opening the door to my office for her to leave. She tried to spit in my face but I dodged it and she ran out of my office.

A large man holding a drink in his hand came walking down the hall, the woman nearly ran into him as she exited. He side-stepped her before he entered my office.

"Another broken heart, Boss?", He asked before sipping his drink.

"Everything settled right?", I asked him as I walked over to the other door in my office, and walked into the bedroom.

"Yeah. Should be fine for me to become the figurehead again." He told me as I snapped my fingers, using my magic to pack for me while I pulled my hair up in a ponytail, "Leaving already? You usually like to stay a bit. Got another assignment?"

"A royal summons, can't be ignored", I told Cerberus what he needed to know.

"Geez, hope everything's ok? Family stuff sometimes can get really sticky. When was the last time you went home anyway?", He asked as he leaned against the doorway, sipping his drink again.

"Why don't you focus more on making sure that I won't be called again for another cleaning, Ber? At least not for a while.", I told him in a thinly veiled threat as I stared at him with my glowing violet eyes.

He swallowed thickly before lifting a hand and rubbing the back of his neck, "Yes, sir. Have a safe trip home. I'll go"

Without another word spoken, he left and I double-checked I had everything, I needed for my return. Walking back into my office, I snatched the letter off the desk and went back into my bedroom.

My free hand wrote the long-range teleportation spell in the air as I read over the letter again with my other. A dark smirk crawled up my face as I spoke to myself, "I wonder how she's taken to my brothers?"

My magic swirled around me and my bags filled me with a warmth that slowly got hotter and hotter until I saw the familiar sight of my bedroom at the king's castle. Glancing at the mirror in my room, I saw my tail, claws, horns, and wings were out showing my half-dragon form.

"Find the assholes we call brothers and make them pay for not alerting us sooner about our mate", Hades, my dragon growled out along with smoke coming out of our mouths.

"Find our mate and stake our claim", I spoke up with a grin of my own as I snapped my fingers to open the door to the hall.

Hades flicked our sergal tongue in the air before he hissed, "Whichever we find first"

We flew in the air racing around the castle until we got to Jaiver's bedroom, where he'll most likely be, this early afternoon. We slammed the door open without a second thought.

A feminine groan came from the bed before we heard her whine, "Jexk, please another five minutes. You two wore me out this morning"

The sound of her voice made us ache and throb. We walked over to the bed to get a closer look at her and saw perfection in the female form laying on the bed.

We lowered our heads until our lips are near her adorable little ear before we spoke in a teasing tone, "I'm not Jexk or Jaiver, my sweet"

Her eyes shot open and she flipped in the bed wiping the drool from her soft, plump, beautiful lips. Now sitting on her ass with a slight flinch on her face, probably from Jexk's rough treatment. Her brown eyes locked onto our eyes, one green, the other violet.

"Jadid", She spoke the name with excitement, her eyes wide and we saw a flash of her violet, indicating that her dragon is also excited.

"And Hades, his dragon. You can refer to us as Jaha in this form, my sweet.", We explained to her as we lifted a hand and very carefully grabbed her hand.

The soft warmth of it made us purr in delight as we wondered if all parts of her are equally warm and soft. Our eyes flickered up to meet hers as we asked in need to hear her voice again, "What's your name?"

"Naia Coleman. Can I touch you Jaha? I haven't seen Jaiver or Jexk like this before", She spoke politely as she raised her free hand to our face looking curiously.

"Yes. May we touch you as well, Naia?", We answered then asked, seconds before her hand cupped our cheek, rubbing against the scales there.

"Yes, please be gentle. I'm a little sore because of your brothers", She told us as she shifted closer to us.

The movement caused the blanket to fall further revealing her bruised, bite-mark-littered skin, as well as her breasts. Our eyes flicked up to her neck, looking at the mark, one of my brothers' left and the other one on her left breast.

The sight filled me with rage for my brothers who denied me the chance to meet our mate sooner. A deep growl left my throat as I remembered the details of the letter, knowing that Jaiver and Jexk savored their ravishment of Naia every time they mated.

"Did I hurt you?", My sweet, spoke with whispered concern that made me feel honored.

"No", I answered her as I opened my eyes and was greeted with the sight of her breasts, flicking my eyes up I see that her hands are wrapped around the base of my horns, "I was lost in my rage for my brothers keeping you to themselves for so long"

"I asked about you as soon as I knew you existed. They were very tight-lipped, did you have a bad falling out?", She spoke as her fingers traced the design etched in my horns, "So pretty"

"No. I simply didn't care much for having a life as a royal so I tend to keep myself busy as far from the castle as I can get", I answered her.

I moved my hands from her wrists slowly pulling down her arms, "And my brothers used my absence as a chance to conveniently have as much time with you as they can. They always think they are entitled to getting their hands on and having the most time with whatever should be ours. They have always been like this."
