Okay, not even gonna lie this is a filler chapter; but it's cute. I hope you can see where this story is heading especially between Sally and Marcus. That's right, there will be a lot of Marcus here. Which by the way...is difficult. Lets have fun and enjoy.
'With my back to the wall,
I will accept the fall.
Descending into dark,
I breathe in it all.
My blood fell,
the side of the well.
Descending away from the light,
falling into the pit of hell.'
Sally muttered lyrics, it seemed this was a sight her mates came to be accustomed to. Her guitar in her arms, or in this case she was working in Edward's old room; using the piano he left behind. "My blood fell, on the side of the well." She corrected her grammar, having realized her mistake.
"Sally?" Marcus asked, bringing her a water bottle and salad that Esme had prepared for her.
Grey eyes moved slightly, before she went to write down a bit of music on the sheet. "You know, I may be switching this back to the guitar. Acoustic, but I'm not getting the sound I want on the piano."
"I see, you need to eat." He replied simply, her cheeks still red from the five day old piercings. "These don't look happy."
"They are not, I fear they are infected. Sometimes piercings are finicky, I had them when you first came. Took them out for an hour, and they closed back up. It may have been too soon to get them redone." She confessed to him. "I may have to take them back out if it doesn't start to reduce, but cheek piercings especially never really heal."
Marcus sat down, quietly observing her. "Knowing this, why did you get them again?" He asked.
"Because, they give permanent dimples. Plus I think they look really cute." She answered, moving to look at him.
"Do you have plans for more? Piercings I mean?" Marcus asked, moving closer for a better look. He was incredibly gentle with the tender flesh, never touching it directly.
"My tongue, and a few more ear piercings." She replied. "Possibly clavicle piercings, and an eyebrow."
"Clavicle?" He asked.
Sally met his eye, before taking his hand and brushing his fingers where the said piercings would go. "Yes. Clavicle. Two surface piercings near the collarbone." She watched him, as he continued to caress the skin, even as she let go. "Marcus." Her breath that caught, sought out his name.
"Sally?" He asked softly, caught off guard when she moved to gently brush her lips against his. A delicate lingering, as if a butterfly had gently passed by him. Long enough however, that he could inhale her breath, feel the warmth of her skin, and taste her lipstick far after she pulled away. He didn't allow her to pull away for long, grabbing her swiftly to pull her back to his frame.
"Marcus, I have work to do." She laughed softly, her green waves reminding him of willow trees gently swaying in the spring air.
He said nothing, simply placing his lips back upon hers. A small moan escaped her, as his tongue slipped into her mouth when she gasped for air. The cold appendage explored everything, in its wake; before meeting hers. A battle soon followed, one he quickly dominated. Only for him to soon retreat from her mouth, in favor of sucking on her bottom lip. His teeth softly scraping against the soft flesh, both cutting and healing due to his willingness to prolong this experience.
"Marcus?" Sally asked after pulling away, tasting a bit of blood from her now bruised lip.
"Yes." He asked, his hand going up to caress her cheek softly. His darker eyes, locking with the now dilated grey, both yearning for more contact against the others flesh.
She said nothing, gently bringing her arm up to his lips. The crescent shaped scar from his teeth was very much visible to the naked eye. His darkening gaze having watched her arm move up, before locking back to the lust filled grey. "Please?" She asked softly.
"Say what you want." A voice said from the door, turning swiftly Sally saw it to be Aro.
"I thought you and Caius were-" Sally started to question.
"We've returned from our hunting trip." Aro replied softly, cutting her off gently, a look of disgust appearing on his face again.
"Join us?" Sally asked, but a growl from Marcus quickly shut that down.
"I would love to, however our lovely mate wishes to spend time with you alone." Her ebony haired mate replied simply. "After all, Marcus and myself will be leaving two days after your tattoo appointment."
Sally nodded, her grey eyes glazed over with unshed tears. Not overly thrilled about being separated from two of her mates, love still maybe far off; but the need for them was there. A sharp pain from her wrist caught her attention in that moment, followed by intense pleasure. Looking over, she locked eyes with Marcus as he drank from her. "I could almost cum from that."
"For your sake, do not." Aro spoke simply.
A thought flowed through her mind instantly when he said that, a smirk soon followed. Grinding softly on the piano bench, she looked over to Aro softly. "It feels so good, though." The effect she wanted was instant, Marcus bit down harder. Her blood began to run down the side of his mouth, as it escaped her body. "Marcus." She whimpered.
Aro chuckled. "Caius is going to have fun, teaching you how to control your orgasms." He grinned, that caused her to buck against the bench. A cry escaping her throat.
"Don't you dare!" Marcus hissed, closing her wrists mark in one swift swipe of his tongue. He knew she was about to cum, due to his ability to see her bond. "You need to eat, and finish your song."
Her grey eyes narrowed, as she bit her tongue. "Mio, caro." Aro could be heard, a teasing note in his voice as he addressed the other male. "I do believe there are quite the array of profanities just waiting to bubble out."
"What gave that away?" Sally snarled instantly, gaining a high pitch chuckle along with a growl from the two in the room. Aro still chuckled a good few seconds, while Marcus growled darkly in her ear.
"We are beginning to pick up on your attitude." Aro finally spoke, before his smile turned feral. "However, we still demand respect."
"You have it, but I demand the same." Sally replied simply.
Marcus jerked back surprised, before he grinned. "You already have it."
Sally returned the grin, before looking at the song and food; before back at her two mates. "Ya know, there is more room for all of us to sit in the dining room."
"Oh, want to spend time with your mates?" Aro asked.
"All three of you." She replied. " So, Grouchy Tiger go to the dining room." A loud growl came from outside the door, as Caius walked in with a look that had sour lemon written all over it.
"Grouchy Tiger?" He asked.
"Yup." Sally replied, before running to jump on him. "However, I'm fond of you all the same." Her lips finding his, to stop the growl that bubbled in his chest.
Like I said, short and sweet. However all this news is having me down. You know terrified about family, Which I am sure you can all agree on. Anyway fun question, do you want more Marcus?
