CHAPTER THREE.
Damon's POV.
I could feel it, she was communicating with her father. The side of my lips curled into a smirk as I walked into the room, hidden away from mere eyes.
'Finally, my plans were in motion.' I thought as I stared at the beautiful figure lying on the bed, the woman after my heart.
"My love," I whispered, bending to place a kiss on her dry lips, as my heart tightened in pain, seeing her like this, on the bed, looking so frail and lifeless.
'Just a few more months.' I clenched my fists, adjusting the duvet to cover her properly, trying to ignore the beeping machine as I stepped out of the room.
I walked towards my study and entered only to see Jason, my Beta, sitting by the window.
"I heard she has arrived." He said, referring to Tulip but I just ignored him and went to sit down behind my desk.
"You must be as excited as hell, you tricky Bastard." Jason grinned and I fought the urge to smile.
"You know me so well." I took the knife from the table and sliced my palm, closing it so blood could drip into the ink jar. I picked the leaf on the table, dipped it into the blood, and began writing on a piece of paper, laid in front of me.
"Alert the old Sage that everything shall be ready in a month or two," I told Jason who stared outside, desire burning in his crystal eyes.
I let out a sigh, knowing instantly he had been distracted by a lady, and not too long after, I heard a feminine giggle, meaning I was right after all.
"Women would be the death of you." I folded the paper, picking up the stamp to press our seal on it.
"Can you blame me? I haven't been laid in weeks." Jason whistled, and I got up to join him by the window, only to see a big-breasted lady adjusting the zip at the front of her dress.
Her cleavage was exposed and I knew she was doing it intentionally to seduce Jason, who was already stroking his crotch.
"No pussy, thanks to you." He turned to glare at me and I folded my hands across my chest.
"Going to the forbidden forest was your duty." I reminded him in case he had forgotten and he turned to look out the window again, ignoring me.
'How did this idiot become a close friend of mine?' I pondered, feeling the urge to punch him in the face.
I snapped my fingers and almost immediately, my raven appeared. I inserted the note between his legs, stroking his ears with my fingers afterwards.
"To the Frog Mountain," I said and the raven flew out, attracting Jason's attention back to me.
"I thought I was the one going to the old Sage, not your Raven?" He asked.
"Yes. It's another matter entirely the raven is taking to him." I told Jason who frowned.
"Why can't I take both to him at once? Don't tell me after all these years, you still don't trust me."
I sat back down in my chair.
"Isn't it obvious?" I inquired and I think I saw a look of hurt flash across his eyes.
"I don't even trust myself," I added and Jason looked away. There was silence for a while as I began to go through the kingdom's reports.
"How is your new breeder adjusting?" He decided to change the topic.
"I don't know. She literally just arrived." I shrugged and Jason chuckled.
"How about I have a taste of her as repayment for the troubles you put me through?" Jason suggested and for some unknown reason, rage burned through my veins as an image of Jason plugging his dick into the white-eyed witch formed in my mind.
"Don't you dare," I growled before I could stop myself, my fangs baring out and Jason's eyes widened slightly.
"Impossible." He muttered under his breath while I dropped the report I was going through.
'What was that? Did I just feel possessive over someone?' I pondered in disbelief.
"You never cared even when you found out I slept with Pearl, the only woman you have ever loved since your existence." Jason paused, placing a hand under his chin. "So why act differently about this stranger, you are finally going to kill?"
I said nothing because I myself, couldn't understand. I went into Pearl's room earlier to distract myself from having thoughts about my new breeder, and it worked, till Jason brought her up again.
Ever since I set my eyes on that witch, I couldn't stop wanting to be close to her, something in me ached for her.
The way she looked at me with terror made my blood boil with excitement, and for the first time since Pearl had been in a coma, I felt my dick hardening on its own.
"Earth to Damon." Jason snapped his fingers in my face and I came back to reality.
"What?" I snarled and all hints of playfulness disappeared from his face.
"I hope it's not what I am thinking. I don't want to be worried." Jason stated and I laughed.
"The only thing you should be worried about is how much fun I am going to have with that witch." I wrinkled my nose in disgust, remembering how much I hated their kind.
They were a bunch of betrayals. All of them but then why did all those feelings vanish when I stared into those whitish eyes of hers?
What was that unwanted feeling that warmed my stomach as I watched her sleep hours ago?
I stood up and went to the window to stare at the half-moon. It wasn't fully out yet, until tomorrow.
"What sort of trick are you playing again?" I asked, hoping the moon goddess could hear me as she was seeing all of these.
"The witch is beautiful. I still wanna have a t.." Jason had barely completed his sentence when I turned around and punched him in the face.
His nose broke, blood gushing out as he staggered backwards, but I dragged him by his collar back, heaved, and threw him out of the window.
That witch was off-limits to everyone but me.
