Sandy POV
Ever since I found Liam my life feels complete. I have watched every mate since I became old enough to understand what a mate means and I wished for a mate to treat me the way Zanian and Julian treats Chrystal. They have such love for each other that I sometimes wonder if they aren’t living in a fairy tale and then I found my own piece of heaven on earth.
“there you are.” I heard Liam say as he made himself comfortable behind me pulling me against his chest.
“what are you thinking about?” Liam asked burying his nose in my neck.
Liam has been getting special training since he has beta blood but was forced into Omega submission, so he is starting to get back his muscles and abs which are already starting to show and he isn’t as pale as he once was the sun and food is doing him good.
“I was just thinking of the life I dreamt about having and the one I have now.” I said and his arms tightened around me.
“I have everything I ever wanted. I have a family that accepts me, siblings and I have my mate which I have longed for the most.” I said and leaned into his chest.
“when I turned 16 I found my mate, she used to be my childhood best friend but stopped talking to me when I became an Omega. She took one look at me and rejected me on the spot and that night she mated with someone else and never in my life have I ever experienced that amount of pain.Many sentences in this chapter have been removed because you are not reading them on J o b n I b . c (o) m . I died and I was emotionally dead for two years, and if it wasn’t for me being the Alpha’s personal slave I would have never met you, and even before you knew you are my mate I knew because I smelled you the second I walked into the kingdom, but I was afraid that you would reject me and I don’t think I would have survived another rejection so I didn’t say anything. I didn’t know it was your birthday until that Saturday so I kept a distance and hoped you wouldn’t notice, but how wrong was I?
When I caught your scent coming closer I was ready to run, but something about the way you moved kept me rooted to the spot and when you kissed me, my soul left my body and came back shooting a million sparks through my body.”
I listened to his story and I couldn’t help the tear that rolled down my cheek for the pain he has suffered and all he went through. I sniffed and Liam turned me so I could face him. “why are you crying?” Liam asked and wiped a tear from my cheek.
“it’s unfair how the good ones always gets hurt and treated badly, I mean what have we done to deserve the hand we are dealt?” I asked throwing my hands in the air.
“have you ever thought about it differently like me? I for one believe that the moon Goddess put us in those situations to make us strong because we will one day need to be warriors and not scared children.” Liam said and I could see the seriousness in his eyes as he spoke, he truly believes what he is saying and that we are meant for something bigger I mean there is Chrystal she survived death and now she is Queen.
Liam and I sat in each other’s embrace for what felt like a second before he got called back to training and Zanian was calling me.
We got up and walked back together to where we had to go our different ways. Liam leaned in and kissed my cheek like the gentlemen he is.
“Chrystal me to ask you she needs help.” Zanian said standing by the front door looking tired. I chuckled and walked past him.
Chrystal has been giving them a hard time with the pregnancy hormones and I constantly see them running out the house or pulling their hair in frustration.
As I walk up the stairs I can hear Julian trying to tell Chrystal to relax, but she just keeps going on about the pants not fitting.
I stood in front of the door and took a deep breath. Before I could knock the door swung open and Julian pulled me in by my arm.
I took in the mess in front of me and Chrystal standing in a sports bra and jeans that looks like they’re ganna tare any second.
“Sandy is here maybe she can get it right where I can’t.” Julian said and looked at me pleadingly. I tried not to laugh but I couldn’t keep it in anymore.
Chrystal is four months pregnant and her stomach is as big as a human woman who is nine months pregnant.
“I got this.” I told Julian and he left closing the door behind him.
“what are you trying to do Squash the babies?” I asked with my hands on my hips.
“none of my clothes are fitting.” Chrystal whined looking at her stomach and said, “and I can’t even see my feet.”
I looked at her for a second and just shook my head. “how about we pick something else?” I asked walking over to her closet.
“I don’t have anything else.” She said walking in behind me. it took me about 40 minutes and I eventually made it through her whole closet and true she doesn’t have anything.
I walked out and walked into the Zanian and Julian’s closet.
“I don’t want to wear their clothes.” Chrystal said standing behind me with her arms folded.
“it’s either their or walking naked. You walking naked will cause Zanian and Julian to rip every male apart who even looks at you and they might lock you up until you gave birth and fit into clothes again.” I said trying to sound as serious as I possibly can.
Chrystal looked at me and finally just nodded her head. “okay fine, but only for today tomorrow I’m going shopping and you are coming with me.” Chrystal said and I smiled saying, “two day’s it is then.”
“two days of what?” Chrystal asked looking at me confused.
“well you cannot go out shopping naked now can you?” I asked with a raised brow and folded arms.
I finally got a shirt and pants Chrystal agreed to and we left the room. When Zanian saw us he let out a relieved sigh and smiled a thankful smile my way. I returned his smile and excused myself to go have lunch.
Liam came in sweat dripping from his body looking as though he just had a shower. I stared at him and unconsciously licked my lips causing his to darken and he gave me a smirk. He walked up to me and without saying anything crushed his lips to mine in a hot needy kiss.
“please get a room there are kids here.” I heard Maggie say as she walked past us with a smirk on her face. Liam and I broke apart smiling and walking into the dining hall together where everything has been set up for lunch. I swear Maggie and Martha never stop cooking.
We all had lunch and Julian was happy that Chrystal stopped fighting about clothes in fact they were all smiling now and making jokes.
I looked over at Liam who is already smiling at me. I formed a plan in my head and I’ve decided that I want Liam to mark me. he hasn’t yet because he was afraid that I wouldn’t want him too, but I want him too.
After lunch I ran into the room and took a shower before him so that I can plan everything while he is showering.
I look at the picnic I set up for us as the sun dips behind the trees leaving only a dim light. I made sure everything is perfect. I walked back to the house and found Liam waiting on the stairs with a small smile on his face. “where have you been?” he asked and pulled me into a hug.
“I have a surprise for you.” I said watching his eyes lit up.
“and what is that?” he asked holding me by the waist looking into my eyes. “I will show you, but you have to close your eyes.” I said and took his hand leading him out of the house.
“we’re almost there.” I said looking at him making sure his eyes are closed.
“where are we going?” Liam asked
“okay, open your eyes.” I said and sat down on the blanket watching his expression change from surprise to love.
We ate cheese and whine and obviously chocolate covered strawberries because a date wouldn’t be one without those.
“this is amazing, thank you Sandy.” Liam said and leaned closer to me. I got up and straddled him crushing my lips to his purring every emotion into the kiss, showing him everything I’m about to say.
When my lungs started screaming I pulled away from him and said, “I want you to mark me.” I watched his expression light up like I have just given him the most amazing gift, which I guess I have.
“are you sure?” he asked tracing my cheek with his finger down my neck moving may hair out of the way exposing my neck.
“yes I am.” I said and kissed him again. Liam left my lips kissing down my neck to my soft spot where he would mark me. he started kissing, and sucking occasionally nipping and by the time I felt his canines pierce my skin I was a hot moaning mess.
Liam licked the wound clean leaving soft butterfly kisses setting off butterfly zoo in my stomach and sparks spread across my skin.
He pulled his head back and I laid my forehead against his and said, “I love you.”
He pulled back smiling brightly and said, “you just gave me the most amazing gift in this whole world and I love you too every day for the rest of our lives and even after I will still love you.” Liam said and captured my lips once again.
I was still straddling him not really wanting to get up so instead I curled up on his chest as he laid down telling me stories about the good times in his life and somewhere between listening to his voice and his heartbeat I fell asleep.
I woke up in bead being held by two arms I will never get used to or get board of. I snuggled closer against Liam’s chest and his arms automatically tightened.
I closed my eyes with a smile on my face, love in my heart and peace in my soul because I will never be let down or forgotten again.
