Warrior (Twisted Sister #2) (18 page)

He doesn’t. Philli or Dragon, whoever is in control right now, winks. He growls, spins me around and pushes me on the floor. He reaches my hands above my head and pins them into place. With an almighty growl, he enters me, pounding relentlessly. My body slides up and down on the carpet. I’m quivering and close to my orgasm when Philli moans and flicks on my clit with his thumb. It sets me off, and I start screaming into the cave, calling out both of their names. Philli’s cock swells again and he comes, growling like a beast into the air.

I spend the morning making love to Madison, when I know that Rafe is going to be coming off his shift, and I need to get Madison to the medical ward to check on Lucy and the baby. We have a lot to be sorted out, and I realize she’s anxious to see Alison. I live a good distance from the mountains that house the council members. So Dragon has convinced me to allow him to shift. He wants to fly with his mate, but it worries me. I’ve never flown with anyone riding me before. I also know that I can’t deny Dragon his chance to show off his mate.

“Are you sure you’re ready for this?” I ask Madison for the hundredth time.

“Yes… fuck yes. I am totally ready.”

I groan and throw my hands up in the air. When will this girl learn not to curse around me? I don’t know if I like it or not, but hey, I can’t blame her for her excitement today.

“Come on. Come on. Shift already.” She chuckles bouncing on the balls of her feet.

“Damn, you’re pushy.” Her hand flies to her chest in a mock upset. I start laughing and continue, “Okay, now step back.”

She takes a step backward toward the cave’s entrance and stares at me. I step out into the clearing and allow the shift to take over. Smoke swirls around my feet, Dragon pushes impatiently at my subconscious wanting out. The pain takes over, and I resist the urge to scream out. I do not want my mate to see me in such a sight of weakness.

Madison gasps, a huge smile breaks out over her face as she looks at me in Dragon form. She tilts her head up to get a better look. Dragon shakes his large wings and she chuckles. Then she surprises me by running over and kissing Dragon’s neck. Madison is tiny compared to Dragon, so she’s only able to reach a small spot at the base of his neck.

“Oh my God, you look amazing. And you know what?”

“What, ma petite?” I ask her telepathically.

“Green is my favorite color,” she screams in excitement.

Dragon huffs in happiness that his mate reacted to him. He spreads his wings out and tilts his left one down low to the ground.

“Climb onto my back, little one,” Dragon purrs.

“Oh, fuck, yes,” she screams, running over and climbing up his wing to rest on his back.

“Madison!”
I chastise.

Madison laughs, leans forward, and bites on Dragon’s ear. “Let’s go. Let’s go.” She chuckles bouncing up and down on Dragon’s back.

Dragon swishes his wings down in one powerful swoop. Madison screams in delight as we fly over the forest and over the river.

When we land on the mountain, she pouts in disappointment. She climbs down from Dragon’s back, and before she steps back to allow me to shift, she reaches up taking Dragon’s snout in her hands and kisses him softly.

“I love you, Dragon, thank you.”

“I will always love you, my sweet girl,” he purrs. “Step back beautiful, Philli is getting anxious to hold you.”

She takes a couple of steps backward giving me the space needed to shift. She looks so sweet as she rocks back and forth on her heels, waiting for me. The minute the shift is completed, she runs over and throws herself in my arms.

“I love you, Sir. I love you, Philli. Mine, do you hear me?
Mine
,” she growls, kissing me passionately and whipping her tongue around into my mouth.

“Wow, sis… you need to go back to your room.”

Madison breaks the kiss and flushes red when she notices Alison hobbling down the walkway toward us.

“Hey, Maddie.” Alison waves.

Madison jumps down from my arms and runs over to Alison. She takes hold of her arms, pulling them outstretched and flipping them over in her hands. She starts checking Alison down for any injuries.

“Stop fussing, Maddie.” Alison chuckles pulling her arm out from Madison’s grasp. “I’m fine. Owen and Mac, have taken very good care of me.”

“As they should, little sister,” I tell her.

Madison turns to face me smiling. My heart stutters at the love I see shining back at me. The way she looks at me, makes me feel alive. I walk over to Alison and reach my hand out.

“Hello little sister, my name is Philli.”

Alison looks down at my outstretched hand and shakes her head. She steps forward and wraps her arms around my stomach. “We don’t shake, we’re family. Hello, Philli.” She chuckles in my embrace, then she drops her arms and steps back, shaking her head. “Which is actually pretty funny, I don’t like to touch or be touched. But being here...” Alison slaps her hands down at her side, “…it’s really weird. I feel…”

Madison puts her hand on Alison’s shoulder and nods. “Don’t worry, I feel the same.”

“Ladies, I don’t have time to explain the ways of the Island right now. But in simple, fast terms... the Island has a way of making our honest, real-self come to the surface.”

“So if you’re an ass, you stay an ass?” Alison chuckles.

“Do you know an ass, my sweet girl?” McKinley laughs walking up the path behind her.

“I knew one of you wouldn’t be far away. How are you, my Brother?” I ask him, slapping him on the back.

“While I like Ally cat to think that she has freedom, you know as well as I do Brother that I need to protect what’s mine.” He smiles brightly.

“Where is my, O bear?” Alison chuckles, wiggling out of his hold when he cuddles her close.

“Oh, I see how it is.” McKinley laughs. He leans down and kisses the top of her head and laughs. “Come on Philli, let’s get the girls into medical so we can check on everyone.”

Alison pouts takes Madison’s arm and starts walking toward the council chambers.

“What’s that all about?” I ask McKinley and point to the girls who are whispering and giggling.

He lowers his voice and discreetly leans over, “She and Owen got close, and fast.”

“Ohhh.” I turn toward the girls and watch them walk up the path. He elbows me bringing my focus back to him. “Sorry dude, but isn’t that what you want?”

“It’s complicated,” he huffs.

From the look on his face, I can tell that the subject isn’t open for discussion. It must be hard to have a double mating. We are dominating men by nature, sharing doesn’t come naturally to us. We walk the rest of the way to medical in silence.

“I don’t want you to walk on that foot, you need to keep it rested.” Madison leans on the side of the bed toward Romie and huffs. “Here I was thinking Dragons were smart. Pft… you weren’t smart now, were you?”

Romie grumbles in discomfort and looks over at me. His eyes narrowed and mouth pouted.

“Don’t even think about it, Romie,” I warn telepathically.

“Yes, Miss Madison,” he slurs seductively, dazzling her with his bright smile.

Romie is a good-looking Dragon that all the females chase. In all the time I’ve known him, he has never been without a warm body pressed up against his. If Romie and I didn’t have the history that we do, I’d be running across this room and ripping this throat out. And in all honesty, the only thing that saves him from that fate is the small wink he throws my way as he licks his lips and stares at Madison. Call me a jealous man, but I don’t like the way Madison smiles back at him sweetly. Dragon tries to push up under my skin, and I break out in a sweat from the heat radiating from his anger.

Madison has been moving from bed to bed all morning. Adding her healing touch to Dragons and Watchers. At first, she didn’t understand how she could heal with just a touch, but once I explained to her that it was her gift, she accepted it with open arms. I keep waiting for her to freak out and completely shut down. But she surprises me by taking this all in her stride, with a simple wave of her hand and her, “Wow, this is cool,” comments when she learns something new.

Romie was just brought in with a twisted ankle. And the minute that Madison heard he was my second-in-command and best friend, she dropped everything to attend to his needs. Well, that was until she heard how he did it. Then she couldn’t stop laughing at his stupidity.

“Your sexy smile and sweet behavior don’t work on me. You see that beast of a dragon over there…” she points to me looming in the doorway and she lowers her voice and whispers, “…I belong to him.”

My chest swirls with pride. “Yes, she does,” I growl softly to myself.

Romie’s head pops up, and he smiles at me. “Chill boss, I know she’s yours. She will be a great leader,” he tells me telepathically. He turns his attention back to Madison and tells her aloud, “He’s an old fool. You might need to find yourself a younger one.”

Madison pushes down on Romie’s ankle and blasts him with a slight energy blast. He hisses in a breath and curses. She glances over her shoulder and smiles. “Oh, I do so love this power.” Madison blows me a kiss and turns back to Romie. “I love my mate very much, old or not. Now, enough about my amazing man, let’s talk about why it’s not a good idea for you to try and climb the shower block to perv on the showering ladies, shall we?”

I bite down on my tongue and turn my gaze out the door, stifling the laughter. Madison went from all sweet and innocent to a lethal machine. She stands in front of Romie with her hands on her hips, glaring daggers at him. Romie, like myself, is one of the larger Dragons on the Island. He is solid, wide, and tall. His ego and strength match that of his size, so seeing him wither under Madison’s glare, cracks me up.

“It… it won’t happen again. Madison—”

“Call me, Maddie.”

I spin around and stare at her dumbfounded. “What? You were going to cut off my Dragon bits for calling you that.”

She shrugs her shoulders and smiles slyly. “What can I say? It’s growing on me, Sir.” She actually bows her head and I melt. Fuck me, she’s amazing.

“You honor me, my sweet girl,” I tell her walking over and pulling her into my arms.

Sophie walks in the room smiling. “Good afternoon, my Prince.”

Her smile drops when I spin around with Madison in my arms. I choose to ignore her attitude and turn back to Romie, rolling my eyes.

“What can I do for you, Sophie?”

“I heard that Romie was hurt, I was just coming to check on him,” she says coming into the room and standing on the other side of Romie’s bed. “Let me look at—”

“That won’t be necessary, Sophie, I’ve already attended to him.” Madison winks at Romie and steps toward him, leaning down she kisses his forehead.

I have to remind myself that it’s just a healing kiss and nothing more. Alison cut herself making a snack this morning. Madison went into overprotective mode, wrapping her hand up and running her to me. When I unwrapped the bandage, I noticed that it was going to need surgery, so I asked Maddie to keep her calm while I warmed my body up to send the healing waves of energy into Alison’s body. Madison leaned down and kissed her forehead, and I sat in amazement and watched the wound heal right before my eyes. It seems my beautiful girl, has the healing kiss.

“Fine,” Sophie huffs. She pushes her breasts out and leans toward Romie, making sure he can see down her top. “Maybe, I can help in other ways.”

“What the fuck is going on?” Romie asks me telepathically.

“I have no frigging idea. Sophie has a bug in her butt,” I tell him back.

“Well, I’m sure I can find some toilets or something that need cleaning if you’re bored, Sophie,” Madison chimes in sweetly.

“Why you little…” Sophie leaps forward and grabs Madison around the throat.
