King Desmond

Mei:
“Desmond, my good man. How have you been?” Eli chirped smiling slyly.
“Do not get me started, after Jack’s little show at the summit with Raven, I have had no peace. Izzy is getting extremely moody with me. You know how difficult it is to get shit done with a horny werewolf mate.” Desmond laughed with a sound of humor.
“Hah. How is Izzy, besides trying to sex you to death?” Jack asked laughing, grabbing my ass.
“Actually, Dominic took her out for a Mother and Son date.” Desmond said shuffling papers in the background.
“Well, that is why we called. Do you remember Dominic fighting a female fighter of Titan’s a while back?” Eli asked calmly trying to hide his laugh.
“Yeah, that was one hell of a fighter. Even though Dominic has half-royal vampire blood, she matched him blow for blow. I offered Titan almost a million for her.” Desmond said laughing hearing that he was shaking his head.
“A million?” The guys shouted. Eyes large as saucers.
“Wait! Who is all there?” Desmond asked sounding curious.
“Seth, and his mate, Max. Eli and his mate Riley, and Yours truly, with my mate Mei.” Jack said laughing at the run down.
“Wait! Mates? What the hell is going on over there? Hang on.” Desmond sounded excited, then the line went quiet.
“Well, isn’t this a sight.” A deep husky voice sounded from the doorway, snapping our heads to see, a tall, muscular man. Long straight black hair, deep green eyes with red flecks. His face looked like it had been sculpted from white marble, clean, well defined jaw, straight hard nose. He was dressed in black slacks, white button-down shirt with the top two buttons undone. Casual dress for business. Jack stood up walking over to him, grabbing his arm pulling him into a manly hug.
“It’s been awhile since you “poofed” here.” Jack laughed holding his hand out to join us. Desmond caught my eye, smiling brightly.
“Desmond let me introduce you to Mei, Riley and Max.” Jack said pointing at each of us, nodding our heads. Max made a slight shift.
“Why is he here?” Desmond hissed pointing at Max. I stepped in between them.
“He is my friend, pack member and Technological Specialist. Before you say one Damn word about Raven, or Titan. Yes, you know who we are.” I said standing my ground placing my hands on my hips, studying his expression. He looks shocked, but a sinister smile appeared.
“You are the one that fought my boy. I must say for you two to be here, means there is some serious shit fixing to go down.” Desmond said pointing between Max and Me.
“Yes, you guessed right. How about we make a time to meet privately?” Jack said smiling like he had a juicy steak waiting to take a bite out of.
“Yes, because whatever you started with Raven, I want a piece of the action. I owe him a big one for Izzy.” Desmond said smiling sinisterly, then turning to me grabbing my hand to kiss it, and bow.
Desmond froze, I could see images of a petite woman, long brown hair, bright jade eyes, soft tan skin. Then a man, snapping her neck. I felt extreme sadness, anger, betrayal, murderous anger. A loud growl erupted from my chest. I released Desmond’s hand, looking at him.
“Seems that my suspicions were right, isn’t that right “spirit wolf”?” Desmond smiled kneeling down to one knee bowing his head. Jack raised an eyebrow. Eli, Seth, Max, and Riley looked humorous watching a Vampire royal kneel before them.
“How do you know what she is?” Max asked stepping forward slightly.
“My wife, Izzy. Her Grandmother was the last “spirit wolf”.” Desmond said studying my face. A bright smile forming on his face.
“My dear you look so much like your mother; Izzy will be delighted to hear her niece is alive.” Desmond said giving me a hug.
“Niece?” I said sitting down looking at the floor. I do not remember any of my family. The Vampire king is married to my Aunt.
“Izzy had a twin sister, Azalea. About fifteen years ago, rogues, hunters, and some really nasty vampires, attacked your clan. They burned down everything, slaughtered every last survivor. We got the word too late, by time we arrived no one was left. Izzy searched every acre for you after we found your parents bodies. We exhausted every source we had to try and find you.” Desmond stopped looking at me holding my hand in his slightly cool hand. It was a welcoming feeling against the raging inferno inside my body.
“How did I end up with Titan?” I asked my voice getting a little louder.
“We think the group was working for Raven, rounding up his new test subjects. Raven is exceptionally good at hiding his true business, but we all know his underground business is buying and selling supernatural fighters. The first time I saw you fight Dominic, I thought I was seeing a ghost. Your Mother.” Pausing as he cupped his chin with his fingers.
“Then I saw how you matched Dominic blow for blow, and I knew I had to get you somehow. That is why I offered a million to buy you, Titan would not budge. Let us see, that would have made you Fifteen at the time, and your strength matched my Twenty-year-old son. A royal Were-vamp.” Desmond was beaming like the proud father he is. I felt unsure, so many questions.
“Wait! So, if you knew about me, why did you not come after me at the facility?” I asked looking at Max, who was deep in thought.
“He probably tried Mei. Do you remember feeling a strange wave of energy, entering, and exiting the facility, when you were transported for fights?” Max asked looking at me smiling like he caught a prey.
“Yeah, it was about a quarter of a mile past the outer gate. That is how I knew I was outside the facility.” I said thinking back about how I would mentally map my transport routes, so if I found the opening to escape, I had some kind of an idea of my location.
“That’s my Mei. I knew you were mapping your routes.” Max smiled proudly. Desmond and Jack cleared their throats looking at us with questioning stares.
“Hey what do expect a trained fighter to do? I was not going to sit around and let that piece of shit use me for whatever.” I said planting my foot down with my hand on my hip.
“It sounds like he had some kind of protection barrier in place.” Desmond said side glancing at Jack and Eli.
“All we know is it was somewhere in the mountains of Colorado. I timed the trip the day of the Fighter Championship, then mapped radiused from Demon Wolf giving me any idea of where Titan held us.” I said laughing staring at shocked faces.
“See this is what I am talking about.” Eli said pointing his finger in my face. I took a quick snap at it, playfully of course.
“Okay, well I hate to cut the reunion short, but I need to get back. Get ahold of me anytime. Izzy will want to meet you soon.” Desmond said giving me a big hug. “Poof” he was gone like that.
“Okay, that was definitely not what I was expecting. I was just going to gloat about Mei kicking Dominic’s ass. Now, it seems that Mei found some family.” Eli said rubbing his forehead with his fingers. I looked at Jack with a raised eyebrow. Kyou was humming oddly.
“Question: How do you all know the Vamp King Desmond?” Max asked holding a finger up. Jack, Eli, and Seth laughed.
“Before, we took over the Demon Wolf Clan, we would sneak out to the “Docks” where they held underground fights. One night while Desmond was fighting, we saw a few hybrids getting aggressive with this brown-haired girl. Not sure who stepped in first, but next thing we knew fists were flying, and this petite brown-haired girl was throwing punches like a “drunken sailor”. Eli went to grab her to miss a flying table, received a hard-right hook. Desmond got involved, ending with us being surrounded by every possible body there. It started an incredibly good friendship.” Jack said laughing pointing a finger at Eli. Seth laughed at Eli patting his back.
“If I remember correctly, Eli is not the only one to have been punched by a female.” I said flashing my shit eating grin with a tiny sarcastic undertone. Jack returned my verbal jab, throwing me over his shoulder.
“We will see who is laughing, after I am done with you?” Jack said smacking my ass cheek laughing darkly. I pushed up off his back, feeling his back muscles twitch and flex under my palms as I threw my dagger looks at the rest of them laughing at the situation unfolding. Max waved like the smartass he is, Seth leaning over whispering something to Max, making his face contort then raise an eyebrow meaning trouble. Eli and Riley took off down the side hallway, laughing and carrying on.
“JR put me down!!” I squirmed trying to free myself from his hold. Another smack sent waves of heat through my body. A rumbling vibration from his chest, tickled my thighs, increasing the heat pooling in my core.
“JR?” He asked in a deep husky tone.
“Yeah, I thought about it while you were at the summit.” I said hanging to his taut back muscles as he climbed the stairs, two at a time.
“I like the sound of it.” He replied nipping the side of my ass cheek. A “yelp” escaped my lips as I could feel wetness collecting between my thighs. A deep inhale of breath with a low tantalizing laugh had me dripping.
Oh, help me Goddess.
