Scarlett screamed loudly as Lucas lapped at her sensitive pearl and played with her nipples. She tried backing away from the staggering pleasure but he only pulled her back and buried his face even deeper between her thighs. They'd snuck into his father's cabin again and this was their fifth hour sexing each other like crazy.

Their love making had gone from shy and innocent to intense, passionate and a little wild in a matter of hours but neither party minded.

Scarlett came again and she heard Lucas chuckle cockily at the masterpiece he'd created. That's what he called her orgasms…his masterpieces. She didn't care what he called them though as long as he kept giving them to her.

He crawled into the bed, hovering over her body. He ran his tongue across her erect nipples while he caressed the space between her navel and her center. He slowly moved his lips up making sure to kiss her neck and shoulders before meeting her lips. He gapped her legs open with thighs and he entered her. She moaned out and the love making began. They fought for dominance. She'd climb on top and go up slowly then clench her core and come down even slower. This made his blue eyes flash red and his fangs pop out. She didn't want to test fate but seeing him do that was funny so she teased him a few times.

He flipped her back over and she noticed him changing. His eyes were starting to turn red and he was starting to look rather… crazed. She tried to get up but he pulled her back and flipped her over on her stomach and pinned her arms. He entered her again and she yelled out, too taken with the pleasure to use actual words.

"You fucking like that don't you Scarlett? Hm? Say my fucking name!"

He slapped her on the ass then he kissed and lightly bit the spot he slapped.

"No Lucas you say my fucking name!" She yelled back, clenching her walls around him.

Lucas growled, hunched over slightly but he kept going, thrusting in and out of Scarlett. Her juices were flowing down her thighs and onto the sheets of the bed. He turned slightly to the left and suddenly she wasn't in the position to talk anymore shit. She found herself moaning and whimpering his name. He laughed and yanked her hair, causing his chest to be against her back. He continued thrusting her but he kissed her lips and neck while using his other hand to play with her clitoris.

"I fucking love you Scar."

"I fucking love you too Lucas."

A bomb went off in her body and she exploded right onto the sheets. She collapsed but he continued on until he came as well. He landed on top of her and they lay there exhausted. She looked back at him and his eyes were back to normal. She thought she was going to be killed but she wasn't. That was always a good thing.

Lucas placed soft kisses on her shoulders and he whispered sweet nothings in her ear.

Scarlett felt loved…loved and satisfied but the sadness started to creep in. The fight was tomorrow and Scarlett had decided not to fight after all. In training she was weak, slow and too easily distracted. She hated to tuck her tail between her legs but she'd decided to take her family's advice and sit on the sidelines. Lucas was still fighting though and she wanted to believe that he'd make it out alive but she wanted to spend at least one more day with him in case he didn't.

After a few minutes of recuperation and a shower they headed back home. She wanted to have dinner with her family. Everyone was worried and she was too. She just wanted to be surrounded by the people she loved because she didn't know if she'd get another chance to be after tonight.

It was the day before the fight and Eli told everybody to have a free day. Tensions had been high with around the clock combat training, learning how to use the guns with silver bullets and the silver arrows. He could tell that his pack was ready for the fight, not in the sense that they were prepared but in the sense that they wanted it to be over. Nobody wanted it to be over more than him though. He wanted to war to be done so that he could see if the Oracle's prediction would come true. He wanted to know if he was going to lose Scarlett. Of course she'd decided to sit out during the fight but usually not even one's own decisions twist the hand of fate.

Eli stood in the shop organizing his inventory and making sure he left things orderly so that if he died whoever decided to run the shop would know where everything was. Suddenly a familiar scent flooded his nostrils and he turned around, unable to continue his worrying.

"Blue eyes… I thought you were with Todd making cookies." Said Eli.

"Well… he decided that he wanted to babysit Sterling and Sarah while Gray went out to get him snacks and video games for his trips tomorrow." Said Clare

"What a selfless act!" Said Eli sarcastically, pulling Clare closer to him.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck. They danced to music that wasn't there. He wanted to tell Clare to run with all of the kids and not to look back but he knew she wouldn't fall for that. Instead he held his wife tight, like he might never hold her again, and they danced to the music that only they could hear.

Clare pulled away from Eli while they were dancing and she looked at him. She didn't know what tomorrow would bring but she knew that she wanted to be with him again, if it was possibly the last time. She walked into the showroom and she locked up the shop. He trailed behind her quickly. She went back over to him and kissed his lips then they both transported to their bedroom. When they got there Eli ripped open Clare's button down shirt and discarded it. He kissed and fondled her breasts through her bra and she moaned out, while he teased her with his touching.

She decided to do some damage of her own and she used her claws to cut Eli's shirt right down the middle. The fabric disconnected just like butter. He gave her an evil smirk and he pounced on her. They both fell on the bed and she laughed when he cascaded her with kisses to her face, chest and belly.

She unbuttoned her jeans and kicked them off while he lost his. Next were her panties while Eli gladly got rid of using his teeth. She shivered with delight as he nipped her hip when biting the edge of the underwear and again when he began placing soft kisses along her thighs as he pulled the panties down further and further. Once he got them off of her he slung it head to the side and released them from his bite, causing them to land on the doorknob.

Clare giggled and Eli pulled his own underwear off, though she wouldn't have minded returning the favor. She rose up and placed her hands on his hips, guiding him down until his weight was on her. The familiar feeling was a lovely one.

They kissed each other feverishly and Clare started to grind her hips and core against Eli's naked, hardened member. He stroked her face and then he linked his fingers through hers on one hand, with the other hand he grasped her hip and he entered her. Clare moaned out and Eli gave her the crooked smirk she still melted for. She wrapped her thighs around his waist and her free arm around him. They were one.

Sex with Eli always felt like a surprise. Of course she knew what to expect but each time was a new experience in some way. Each orgasm he made her have was unique. She'd never thought about it until his moment though.

He went deeper into her making her moan in a whisper, saying his name only loud enough for him to hear. She was suddenly engulfed by a blanket of electricity that covered her entire body. Her heart raced, she felt like she was buzzing and her core was clenching around Eli's hardness relentlessly… She'd just come.

Eli followed her moments after. When he did they just lay there staring into each other's eyes. After a few minutes they both showered and redressed. Clare went to cook dinner and Eli went to play video games with Gray and Todd.

Gray tried playing the video games with Sterling and Sarah in his lap but it was hard to. Instead he decided to put the joystick down and leave the level to his father and Todd. He decided to spend some time with his little ones since tonight might be the last night he ever had with them. He lay in the floor and they used him as an anchor to stand themselves up on. Then they crawled all over him and gave him slobbery kisses. He started to talk to them. He knew they couldn't understand what he was saying but he just needed to tell them.

"Daddy loves you both… so much. Sterling…you're in charge while I'm gone so take care of your sister. I mean, you are only weeks apart in age but still. Sarah, listen to your brother but don't let him boss you around okay? I love you guys… you two remember that just in case I don't see you again after tonight. Promise?"

Both the babies looked up at him and smiled before reaching their chubby little fingers towards his mouth. He lightly bit their tiny digits and they pulled back, laughing in delight. They played the game for a while before getting into a scuffle with each other.

Gray watched them play and he decided that if he were to be killed tomorrow then in his last moments this was what he'd think about. His two brawling babies.

Lucas was finally able to stand up to his father in combat. He'd already beat Jay and Luke which was saying a lot. He was ready for the war, in fact he was confident about it and since he knew Scarlett would be safe he was even more ready to meet the battle. He sat at the dinner table with his mother and father. Things were quiet.

"Son, are you sure you don't want to go away with Scarlett?"

"No dad, I'm fighting and that's final."

"Very well." Said Declan.

The rest of the night was eerily quiet. The soft music didn't even help diffuse the silence that rang through the house. He'd usually hear other coven members stirring, laughing, joking or roughhousing but tonight there was nothing. Lucas soon decided that this was the calm before the storm.
