ROMANCE: Mated To The Lion (Paranormal Lion Shapeshifter New Adult Contemporary Romance) (Shapeshifter Mystery Alpha Lion Romance) (19 page)

The three of them reached the holy land of the wolves. There were a total of nineteen wolves waiting and the moment Matt entered the territory, he gave in a loud howl. He turned back to see if Tara was scared, but she gently smiled which made Matt angry. He had howled to scare her off, but he had no clue to know that she was a paranormal being too.

She knew that Matt was getting on the edge, but she knew what she had to do. She had to win over the pack and she was determined to fight for her love. It wouldn't be an easy battle, but she won’t let it go away either.

As they entered inside the pack, the wolves looked hungrily at Tara. Ralph stood in front of her and took her hands. This was a sign of claiming his territory and he could see how Andre recoiled at the sight.

“Ralph, where had you been? You made no attempt to connect with your pack?” Andre said with an anger filled voice.

“I was terribly injured and close to dying. I would have died had it not been for Tara. I owe my life to her. She saved me and brought me back from the clutches of death. I love her,” Ralph said confidently.

“Bullshit. This can’t happen. Do you know who the hunters were? They were humans. One of them was Dimitry’s friend and he was the one who betrayed us. Humans will always betray the wolves. They can never be yours. You are making the same mistake as Dimitry did. Humans have always been the reason for the loss of the werewolves. You can’t love her.”

Tara touched Ralph’s hand and emerged from his shadow. “Isn’t love supposed to be the truest magic known to any species – be it the wolves, witches, vampires or even humans? Alahara decartona ramiasa” she said and Andre was stunned to silence.

“Who are you, young lady?” Andre asked in disbelief.

Ralph too couldn’t understand what had happened as Andre bowed down in front of Tara.

She uttered some other words in a language none of them could understand. Ralph wondered if she had cast a spell on Andre, but he knew that Tara would never use the magic in a wrong way. She would never dare to hypnotize the alpha of a wolf pack. But there was no explanation for the way Andre was reacting to Tara’s words.

After a long conversation that went on for quite some time, Andre gave in a loud howl and welcomed Tara to the pack. He turned around to face the pack and said, “Welcome Tara to the pack. She is the daughter of Samirah, the elder wolf-witch and deserves our respect. No one here will disobey any of her commands and we must treat her with love and respect. Ralph, you are a lucky man to have found the love of the royal witch.”

Ralph couldn’t quite understand the whole thing. He had been with Tara for so long, but she had never once brought up her royal lineage.

She understood Ralph’s confusion and said, “I always thought you were a lone wolf and hadn’t found your pack yet. In our witch customs, it is considered rude to ask someone of their pack time and again and to boast of your lineage. Samirah was my mother and she was married to Aguilera, the lord of the werewolves. I am their daughter.”

Ralph was amazed and saw how quickly the whole clan accepted her. He was delighted beyond words and he was even more touched by the kindness of her heart.

“I don’t even believe my luck as to how I stumbled upon you. You are a royal witch. Take my regards and respect, lady.”

“Come on, Ralph. I am still your Tara. My lineage and royal blood do not make me any different. I had chosen you for who you are and nothing changes between us. I am glad that your pack is also accepting me.”

She turned to the pack and said, “I don’t stay with my royal family. I stay alone and I have been practicing witchcraft for quite some time now. I am in love with Ralph and he loves me too. We made a life for each other and I know everything about the werewolves even before he told me. I would never betray any of you and I will impart a spell to strengthen the ties and it will help you be safe.

I would like to stay with Ralph and be with him for the rest of my life. However, the whole clan is invited to come to our home and socialize whenever you want to. I am willing to be a part of your pack too if you all agree to it. The combination of a witch and werewolf is extremely powerful and I can call my mates and help them strengthen the tie too so you could put a fight with the hunters.”

Andre smiled and bowed down again. “We are glad to have your support highness. When we have you by our side, we do not need to fear anything or anyone. You don’t need to seek any permission and you are free to do whatever you want. Ralph can stay with you and come and join us whenever he wants to.

We will need your blessings as we will try to fight the hunters. I am sorry for all the trouble you had to face.”

They spoke for some more time as Tara explained the details of her plan to strengthen the ties. Andre listened with rapt attention and agreed to her points. Once they had settled on everything, Ralph and Tara decided to go back to their home.

“You are a royal witch. Why did you choose an ordinary wolf like me, Tara? You even thought I was a lone wolf and you know how loners are looked down upon. You still didn’t flinch from picking me. Why?”

“Darling love doesn’t follow logic. If I chose you for your royal lineage or for your blood type, it wouldn't be love. When you love someone, you do so because they make your heart sing a song which you have never heard before and yet can’t stop humming. When you love someone, you see the best in them. Even when they get on your nerves, you can’t stop admiring them for who they are. I didn’t care if you were a lone wolf or a royal wolf, all I cared was the way you made me feel and how your kiss awoken my senses. I knew in a crowd full of people, my heart would always find you and call it the perfect home.”

Ralph looked in her deep blue eyes and he could see his reflection and how he belonged there. Yes, he felt like he had finally found his home. It is wrong to believe that a pack completes a werewolf. No matter who you are, whether you are a wolf, a witch or even a human, it is love and love alone that has the power to complete a person and give meaning to his/her life.

As the sun set in the backdrop, Ralph kissed Tara and he knew that he would happily kiss her all his life. He had found a reason to love and he promised to make love to her every morning on waking up and every night before heading to bed.

“Are you still going to keep your promise” Tara winked.

“The kitchen counter sex?”

“Of course!”

“You bet!”

The moment they entered their home, Ralph hungrily leaped on her body and undressed her by ripping her fabric apart. He wasted no time and got her undressed and then started gobbling her big breasts. He then carried her on her lap and placed her on the kitchen counter. The kitchen counter table was cold, but she felt all kinds of hot with Ralph’s body pressed to her.

He parted her legs and made circles on it. She could feel the buzz and she arched her legs even wider. This gave him all the room to bury his face inside her legs. He kept licking and tasting her soft flesh and left his own bite marks.

“Oh damn it, get in now” she screamed.

He climbed on the kitchen and pushed her a little backward. When he was on the top, he quickly positioned his dick and pushed it in. Tara screamed and held on to his sculpted back because the pleasure was out of the world. He let his tongue taste the pink soft flesh on the nipples and pushed harder and deeper in.

The moment he touched her most sensitive spot, she climaxed and he filled her inside and ejaculated in her vagina. As a witch, she knew that this was the moment.

“Ralph, our child is on the way,” she said and smiled.

Ralph danced in joy and kissed her one more time.

THE END
