“This is all for you”, I pass it over to Amelia. Her mother is starting to look bored and annoyed again, but again, I don’t care about her.
“They are on our family plan, and our resident tech genius has created and installed an app that you can meal plan and do shopping on all in one, the phone has all our pack numbersas well as Ignatious and some of TripleMoon pack as they are family when you turn it on you will have to add security information so only you can use it, anyone else tries they will be arrested as there is pack information on it. If you get stuck with anything, call Darby as the tech is his baby.” I notice her mother looking at the tablet.
“If you want to use it as a normal tablet, you can; the only thing monitored is our apps, you won’t be able to screenshot or copy anything on those, but you can use your own email and other apps. I think Candy Crush is already installed.” I chuckle and watch her mother again, and she has a calculating look on her face.
“We only supply the phone so we can contact you. We will be notified if you turn them off when we try to call or if you ignore a call. Darby can check if you have a signal, so please answer if we call.” Her mother now looks annoyed again, but Amelia looks delighted.
I say goodbye to Amelia and pull her into a hug, but her mother just stomps away, not even a polite farewell ‘How rude!’
“Remember ALL our numbers are on there, don’t hesitate to reach out,” her eyes dart to Jake, and I give her a nod, and then she hurries after her mother.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
DEVIN
Since Ember started on our home, it’s been a whirlwind of stuff happening with setting up the Sawmill, getting stuff cleared and picking décor, even though the latter we left for Miles, just giving him ‘hell no’ occasionally.
Mika gets back from his deployment tonight, his and Lily’s mating ceremony is tomorrow, Ember and Amelia have spent so much time trying to keep Lily calm, then Elder Victoria turned up, and they all got drunk and watched sappy movies and things seemed to even out again the next day they spent going over details of the ceremony which also distracted Miles for a bit as he was getting stressed about things not turning up and delays.
I’ve had Ember in my bed the last few nights, but tonight is the first time we’ve been alone, normally Darby or one of the guys dips in, I feel ridiculous how possessive I am over her blood, today I ended up having an odd conversation with Victoria about it, she wanted to know what to expect from Declan, she differs from humans as she has only one, two week period a year, it’s also the only time she can get pregnant.
The thought of my delicious mate pregnant has me hard in seconds. We’re seventeen, so I shouldn’t be thinking that, and I don’t think I’m ready to be a dad yet. Some packs are still run by the old ways. At sixteen years old, you get your marks, find your mate and start a family, and a cabin on pack lands is allocated to you.
I will admit the number of packs run that way is small nowdue to humans frowning on teenage pregnancies, but Ember has finished school and college, her career is starting, and two of her mates are four years older than us; we have also not talked about how it will work. Will we all be dads, or will the others be uncles? Some of us are ready and happy for babies tomorrow *cough Ren, Saint cough*, and some are shit scared of the idea, still, we all have the injection Xander gives us to avoid accidents. Ember’s scent hits my nose, and I move down, slipping my tongue between her folds, lapping at her syrupy goodness,
“Devin” she sleepy moans, knowing she’s now awake I sink my fangs in either side of her clit, arching her body off the bed as her orgasm hits, I use my vampire speed and I’m balls deep inside of her before the peek truly hits, I then make slow love to her, other than shared pants and moans there is no other noise in the room, I cup her ass and tilt her hips giving me a deeper angle making her gasp and her cunt clench around me, her hand finds my ass pulling me deeper and harder into her body, her hips rocking with mine, one hand moves to my hair fisting it and pulling my mouth to hers forcing me to swallow her cries of pleasure, her nails have broken the skin on my ass, and I can feel a trickle of blood, I bite her lip making her bleed in our mouths,
“Cum for me! Milk my cock!” the minx bites my lip, causing our blood to mix, and I lap at her mouth, the taste setting off a string of orgasms for both of us.
“I love you,” she whispers as we come back down,
“I don’t think love covers what I feel for you,” I reply, my cock still hard inside of her. I carry her to the shower and continue to show her how I feel.
EMBER
When Devinand I head downstairs, I find Amelia curled in a chair in the hall, tears trickling down her face, Devin kisses my temple and dashes off, I roll my eyes, guys can’t deal with girls in tears, I sit next to her, the chairs used to bracket the old wired phone but now it's just two chairs and a table with some pretty flowers, she slides her phone towards me.
MOTHER: You are not getting any younger,
You finally have a high-level job,
even if it is with an unknown young pack.
I have sent you information on a few
respectable mates that could help
That pack, pick one, or I will.
I reread the message twice, shocked at the words, then looked down the list of names. Declan is one of the names, but has a question mark next to it; all are vampires, though. Victoria walks over, and I pass her the phone. She goes down the list, mumbling.
“Pompous dick, gay, gay, should be dead, snort, I think he still suckles on his mother's tits, Playboy.” The comments go on, then she passes Amelia her phone back.
“Pick Declan, and then we can ditch him and run off together,” Lia and I laugh at her.
“You are not under her control anymore, and part of your contract with us is you can’t be part of an arranged mating nor push your children into one,” She nods, pulling out a handkerchief.
“Ignore her, we will help you deal with any assholes that turn up, so Jake doesn’t have to kill them” I fire off a text to Jake's mom to rally the troops as I’m going to do Lia and Jake's ceremony next week, they have both said they are ready but they don’t know how to take the next step, Ellie May then sets up a group chat with me, Alma, Lily, Vicki and the quad, making a comment she’s not adding her mate as he can’t keep secrets and the planning for that begins.
