Love At First Kingdom

Chapter Fifteen

"Thomas..."I grab his hand and he gives a farrell grunt in reply. " Thomas calm down. Its just a hand print. Nothing permanent. "His eyes flicker to mine and spark like it just hit a puddle of oil.

" He hurt you." He snarls and John gains his state of mind back and gives his own snarl at Thomas. Its like lions meeting in the wild for the first time.

" Im fine. Lets go, you're going to get hurt." I urdge and stand between them,I face Thomas and put my hands on his cheeks." I can't see you hurt."

Thomas' shoulder sag for a minute and he smiles at me, his gaurd down. John snarls and launches himself at Thomas. I scream as Johns hands wrap around Thomas' neck and he bashes Thomas' head down on the ground, I take the breakfest tray from the morning before and slam it over John's head.

It stuns him for a moment and gives Thomas the chance to slam John back against the wall. His eyes are wild and pupils large, the sparks in the black like fireworks.  His spine is curved dangerously and lips pulled back to show large K-9 teeth. Its... terrifying. His nails curl into John's arms and the spring king under him growls and gives a slight whimper at the pain.

"Thomas..." I softly say his name.  The pupils only grow and lips snarl back to show rows and rows of teeth ro shred, his shoulder blades stick out unnaturally as he squars himself off over Thomas and lets his nails drag up his arms slowly. " Thomas."

I say more firmly and take a step forward.  My hand shakily places itself on his back and I give a soothing thumb swipe. John looks at me and waits for my head to get bit of by this.... thing.  This isnt Thomas.  This isnt the Thomas I know,it looks like him.But its not my Thomas.

"Thomas it's okay. He peed himself, let him go." I lean down and kiss his cheek gently.  This things body freezes for a minute before it blinks and slowly goes back to my Thomas.  Thomas sits back on his heels and looks at me. His eyes look scared as he shakily stands next to me. I hug him and jump. Its like touching a hot rod, shockingly hot but not burning.

"Its okay... Im fine." He reads my glance, hes gotten good at that.

" When you came here the other night, you were burning up because..." he looks away and bites his lip.

"I got angry. I needed to go blow of steam so I let myself go and found a lake with deer to occupy myself. By the time I was calm again I came here but I was still hot."

"Alright...."I sigh and nod." We'll get you cooled off in a few minutes. Alright?" I kiss the tip of his nose, he smiles and nods. He really is a hot head. My hot head.

"What the hell does this sorry exscues for a king have over me. Hes not even a full blooded fae. He's a mutt. "John spits the word like its the lowest insult he can think of. Thomas looks unaffected and that sparks my blood like its gasoline , I cut a sharp glare over my shoulder and snarl.

" Thomas never ordered his court to whip me publicly you dumbass.  He never called me a waste of space. He took his time and earned my trust, and never once has he called me worthless you piece of shit." I shove him back and get right in his face." I have half a mind to let Thomas at you, but since Im a nice person and I care for you somehow still, Thomas is going to go unharmed and we are going to talk about this like adults."

John looks shocked as he takes a step back.  His eyes study me and he grinds his teeth.

" Alex think about who youre choosing here. He's..."

"Better the. You. He trusts me and would never hurt me. I trust him and couldnt lay a harmful hand even if I tried.Im not so sure about you on the other hand." I shove him out and put a hand on the door. "Well talk later.  If you try to come in any sooner you'll be met with my ass and zero fucks given. Well, actually one fuck will be given." I steel a look at Thomas and close the door behind myself.

"Are you okay?" As soon as the doors closed his hands are on my cheeks and hes hugging me tightly. He sways slowly and presses kisses to the top of my head. His hands are hot,not burning hot but hotter then what they should be.

" Im perfectly fine thanks to my brave knight." I smile at him and kiss his lips happily.

" Dont forget handsome." He winks, I laugh and push him off as I go start a bath for him.

" You are very hot. But I cam make you shut up in five seconds." I purr and wink at him.

" Not even Burr has learned how to keep my mouth shut." He scoffs and rolls his eyes as he leans against the doorway.

" In case you haven't noticed Im not Burr dumbass." I laugh and he once again rolls his eyes." If you keep rolling your eyes they're going to get stuck that way. He laughs and shakes his head.

"Im still waiting for.... you..." his smile slowly melts as my fingers curl around the edge of my shirt and I slowly pull up, his eyes hungerily watch as I pull my shirt up inch by inch at a painfully slow rate. When its off I let it fall off my finger to the floor and I make my way over to him slowly,his eyes never leave me.

" You're still waiting for me too what?" I hum and take his hands in mine, I slowly  drag them down my chest and stomach and let his fingers curl over the edge of my pants.

"Damnit you're good." He sighs and slowly pulls my pants down past my hips and let them fall around my ankles. I laugh and kiss his jaw.

" I know I am." I purr in his hand and feel his hands slip into my boxers.  I jump and blush wildly. " impatient much?" I smirk.

He nods and starts pressing and sucking and nipping new bruises into the ones from this morning. He strips as quickly as he can and follows me into the tub with a grin being pulled by the edges of his lips.
