Lover Sacrificed - Chapter 42

 Ahgony came awake to a tortured scream next door.

Darius!

Guns drawn, he stormed into his friend’s room, only to find him screaming and crying in his sleep. He was dreaming!

- Dude! Darius, wake up!

His friend trashed and turned on the bed, not acknowledging Ahgony at all. So he did what any friend would do. He grabbed a glass of water and splashed it into his face.

- What the fuck…

Darius was instantly awake and alert.

- D, you ok man?

- Fine.

Darius dried his face on the sheet and sighed.

- You wanna talk about it?

- Nope.

- Ok. We still have a few hours left until sundown. I’m heading back to bed.

- Cool. I’ll be in the gym.

- Don’t overdo it.

- Whatever.

Ahgony walked back to his room and smiled as he saw a familiar shape lying on the bed. Grinning, he walked over and lay down beside her.

- Hello leelan.

She opened her arms and welcomed him into her embrace.

- Hi baby.

His lips found hers and he held her close as he dipped his tongue into her mouth to taste her. Her soft moans were driving him crazy.

- You know if your father finds out, I’m toast right? Like, literally.

She giggled softly.

- He won’t find out. And he won’t hurt you. Much.

- Are you kidding? That guy eats lessers for fun! I’d be nothing but a snack. You have to go back to your room Mariah.

- Mmm in a little while.

He sighed, unable to deny her anything.

His hand traveled down her stomach, into her panties where he found she was already wet for him. He couldn’t be with her the way he wanted, not yet. But he sure as hell could pleasure her, even if it gave him a severe case of blue balls.

*-*-*-*-*

Darius was having a go at the punching bag, letting out all his frustrations. He’d have to go feeding soon, just in a few hours. The last time before he got mated to her.

He let out a frustrated scream as he took out his dagger and ripped the punching bag open, letting all the sand fall on the floor.

- I did that once.

He looked up to find Zsadist watching him. His shoulders sagged.

- Are you ok, son.

- I guess.

- You’ll get your revenge. Might take a couple of centuries, but… you’ll get it.

Darius nodded.

- And if you let me. I’ll help you. Gladly.

Z’s eyes flashed black for a moment and Darius nodded again.

- If this shit hadn’t happened, would you have mated her?

- Yeah Z. The second I got out of my transition.

- Even though your dad has this rule about not dating the daughters of the brothers?

He snorted.

- Nothing would have stopped me Z. Nothing.

Zsadist nodded.

- Good to know.

Darius wanted to say more. To let Zsadist know how much he loved Nalla.

But what the hell for.

It didn’t change anything.

Zsadist nodded at him as if he had read his mind and knew. Which he was thankful for.

A wave of nausea suddenly hit him and he fell on his knees.

- Whoa. You ok, son?

- Dizzy.

Every bone in his body suddenly ached like a bitch. He hadn’t been working out that hard…

- Think I need to feed. Didn’t do it last time.

Except his stomach didn’t hurt like it would if he were hungry.

- Only one hour til sundown. I’ll get Ahgony. You want me to call anyone else?

He shook his head, swallowing back the urge to throw up.

What the hell was happening to him?
