Raven smiled while taking her clothes off. She had been expecting Clarke to come talk to her but the blonde was clearly not going to come. Smirking at the thought of her friend on a date, she couldn't help herself from getting a playdate of her own. She had never been prude about her sexuality, even during her time as a mundane, ever since she was given the Gift it was almost as if she had become who she was truly meant to be. While some vampires suffered and longed their past, Raven was completely happy with the way things had turned out for her. She had been too smart for her own good and that had placed her in a bad place with even worse people. She had despised her time as a mundane, and when offered the chance to be reborn as something better, Raven had not rejected the Gift. Marcus Kane had been her savior, just like he had seemed to be for most of the vampires of Arkadia, and she had been truly thankful to him, offering her knowledge and skills once she was capable of thinking about something else than blood.

She had found a family inside of Arkadia, formed by Clarke and Octavia, her best friends and sisters from another mistress since Marcus had created all of them. It was a running joke between them, one that only served to deepen their bond and loyalty towards the other. So when Octavia left Arkadia, that had hurt her deeply, the pain of abandonment one she had been familiar with during her time as a mundane. But still, she didn't dwell too much on the younger vampire's absence and she instead turned towards more 'pleasurable' ways of entertainment. Being the Queen left Clarke little time and that had meant more alone time for Raven. And the brunette vampire had taken advantage of that by partaking in many sexual encounters. There had been men, women, and many others who explored her body and tasted her. She had no shame about her actions but she did feel embarrassed when she heard whispers of her name coming from the lips of fellow vampires. She had become some sort of legend inside Arkadia and that had only made her chuckle in amusement. For being vampires and creatures that were supposed to expel sexuality and lust (according to the mundanes stories), the vampires of the Coalition were very prude and boring.

But not her.

"Are you going to fuck me or are you going to just stay down there simply staring?" a voice asks her and this makes Raven stop her daydreaming.

"Patience is a virtue." the hacker retorts while moving lower and chuckling when the woman under her gasps in delight.

Raven had been roaming around the hotel in complete boredom, not being capable of having much fun because of the tense situation between the covens. Azgeda's departure from the Coalition and the imminent war between them was creating conflicts between the remaining covens. Some were trying their best to appear nonchalant about it, but Raven knew very well that apart from Trikru and the Boat Coven, all the remaining members of the Coalition were going to be difficult to convince of joining Arkadia in the war. As it always tended to be since Trikru joined the Coalition, it was always the second in command the one that came to the meetings of covens. No one knew exactly why, and when Raven asked Clarke about it, the blonde merely shrugged and said that if she could she would do the same. The woman, a vampire older than her, was always concise and direct, confident about her knowledge of their world and of what was right and wrong. That had always attracted Raven, but the woman seemed inaccessible and unachievable, something that made the brunette hacker hesitate in her desire to start a conversation. But today it was different. She could feel the way the Trikru vampire's eyes were following her, how they moved downwards and focused on her behind. That had given her the confidence to wink at the woman who didn't take her away her eyes and instead followed her towards her room.

"I'm still waiting." the older vampire huffs in annoyance and Raven starts her attack.

Licking and moving her fingers in tandem with the movement of the other vampire's hips, Raven uses her extra speed to make the woman scream in excitement. She knew she was good at sex and she was going to do her best to make her companion realize this as well.

"You have such a dirty mouth." she says while moving upwards. "I must be doing something really well." she teases.

"I don't know because I haven't cum yet." the woman says cheekily and this makes Raven laugh out-loud.

"Touché." she admits defeat while getting closer to the vampire's ear. "Guess I have to remedy that." the brunette vampire promises and uses her fingers and hips to create pressure.

"YES!" Raven hears a scream and smirks when she feels her fingers become sticky. "Too much."

Understanding that her touch was hurting the woman who had just climaxed, Raven immediately moves her hand away and simply lays on the bed, thinking about nothing. She didn't know much about her companion, apart from the fact that she was just as horny as she had been and that she was good looking enough. Well, to be honest, the woman was beautiful and confident, a combination that tended to enchant Raven. Confidence was sexy.

"Did I rock your world just like I promised I would?" she teases the other vampire when she hears her respiration quicken.

The woman chuckles softly. "You did Raven kom Arkadia."

"I'm pretty sure all the other guests heard you screaming." she continues teasing.

"Nothing new I'm afraid." she jokes and turns around to stare at Raven. "You're very talented."

"Lots of years of practice and awesome stamina can do that." she winks.

"I'll take that into consideration."

"You Trikru are too conservative." Raven says mostly to herself. "In fact, I'm surprised you were that honest and direct when we first met."

"My Primus tells me that is one of my weaknesses." the Trikru vampire confesses. "That I'm like an open book."

"Well, it turns out that that is what I like about you Anya kom Trikru." Raven says softly and the woman alongside her blushes.

"I should go." she looks away from Raven with a sad smile. "Before we start something we can't stop."

"Because of the dinner?" Raven asks confused. "Because trust me, I can have you come in like 15 minutes."

"Now I don't doubt that." Anya smiles softly at her. "But you know very well what I mean."

"It doesn't have to be more than what we just did. Remember, no strings attached and that kind of sentimental bullshit."

"I know." the Trikru vampire tells her. "I remember."

"Then why leave?" the hacker asks confused.

Anya merely puts her clothes on and gives Raven one sad smile.

"You'll know soon enough." the older vampire replies and leaves without saying another word.

Strange, Raven thinks and remains on the bed, thinking carefully about their encounter and what had happened between them. Yes, it had been hot and very pleasurable, that was true, but then there had been something else, a small feeling growing between them that Raven had simply ignored. She didn't want to complicate things, and a relationship was most certainly a way of complicating things. Clarke and Arkadia needed her.

Hearing steps coming towards her room and stopping at her door, Raven quickly stands up from the bed and puts her clothes on, telling the person to come in and wait for her to get to the living room. Because of the dominating smell of sex, it takes her a while to smell her companion, the familiar and yet bittersweet smell making her stop moving around the room.

Slowly, for a vampire at least, Raven goes outside and sees Octavia sitting on the couch, the younger vampire nervously moving her leg.

"Octavia?" she asks and screams in delight when the younger vampire nods. "I can't believe it!" she hugs her tight.

"Raven." Octavia says relieved and hugs her back. "I have missed you."

"So have I." the hacker replies warmly. "I mean, I know we talked but you never said much and I didn't actually know if you were alright or just lying to me."

"A little bit of both." she shrugs. "Time and space was what I needed. But I missed my home and my friends."

"So you're back now?" Raven asks carefully.

"Seems that way." Octavia raises her hand and shows her the brand.

"So you already talked to Clarke who approved." Raven says relieved.

"Yes, and that was interesting."

"You met her mundane then."

"I have never seen her be like that." the younger vampire confesses. "So loving and calm, like the mere thought of upsetting Lexa would hurt her. I think that's why nothing else happened apart from me being questioned about my motives."

"And what are your motives Octavia?" the hacker asks carefully.

"To protect my Queen and her mate. Nothing more than that."

"You know what happened to Bellamy." she simply says and Octavia nods.

"Not that it surprises me very much." she says bitterly.

"So it's no coincidence that you're here the very next day your brother gets exiled."

"He called me." Octavia confesses. "Asked me to come protect Clarke."

"You know what he did, right?"

"I know." she says darkly. "And I don't think that another vampire attempting to do the same to Clarke's mate will be as lucky as he was."

"That's the Bond." Raven smiles warmly. "It makes a vampire become extremely protective of their mate, even to the point of releasing their inner beast."

"I know." Octavia chuckles. "I almost met Clarke's when she saw me talking to Lexa."

Ravne closes her eyes and hits the other vampire on the shoulder.

"You and your brother are quite stupid; both approaching a vampire's mate without them being present. Of course Clarke is going to think it's a threat."

"I just wanted to talk to her and see why Bellamy was so scared of her."

"And what did you think?" Raven questions her friend.

"That my brother is jealous of Clarke just like he used to be during our time together in Arkadia and is refusing to accept their Bond."

"Clarke and I thought so as well." the hacker confesses. "That's why we're worried he's gonna try to do something with Azgeda."

"You're scared he's going to betray you and sell important information to Roan and Ontari."

"Your brother is very capable of doing that."

"I know." Octavia tells her somberly. "And right now it's the worst time for Bellamy to be switching sides."

"Things are complicated right now." Raven admits to her. "Clarke's position as Queen is being challenged by Azgeda, and although their plot to trial Clarke failed, not all of the covens are willing to join Arkadia if it comes to war."

"But that's why they're in the Coalition; to attack one is to attack all."

"You know how Clarke is: She doesn't want to force the Primus of the covens in sending troops. She will make it voluntary. And up until now, there are only two covens willing to fight alongside us: Trikru and the Boat Coven."

"And the others?"

"Neutral." Raven huffs in annoyance. "They think Azgeda will retreat and stay behind their lines until they run out of food and beg the Coalition to take them back. But Clarke and Anya don't think that will happen."

"Anya?" Octavia asks and notices how her friend blushes.

"She's Trikru's second in command."

"You've met her."

"Of course I have. I am Arkadia's best hacker and the chief of intelligence."

"Not like that Raven." Octavia mocks her and opens her eyes in shock. "She was here before I got here, wasn't she?! That's why the room smells of sex!"

"Shut it Octavia." Raven tells her. "Yes, she was here, but you can't tell anyone. You know how Trikru vampires are about sex."

"I know they're very traditional and conservative about it. I'm even surprised their second in command slept with you. With your fame and all."

"Shut up." she mutters angrily.

"You like her." Octavia realizes when she sees how affected Raven is by the subject.

"Octavia." the hacker threatens her.

"Ok." Octavia raises her hands in mock surrender. "I won't talk more about it."

"Appreciated."

"But I wanted to come say hi to you before the dinner. I had missed you and I wanted to catch up before things got bananas."

"They may get bananas." Raven chuckles. "I'm glad you're back O."

"So am I." the younger vampire says and hugs Raven one more time.

Bellamy was moving around the hotel, his bag behind him and a sour expression on his face. He was upset at his circumstances and what Clarke was forcing him to do. She was supposed to be his friend and yet she was putting a mundane over their friendship. It was impossible that a vampire as powerful as Clarke would be capable of having a mundane soulmate. That was why Bellamy believed that the human was doing something to trick and weaken his Queen. The brunette could easily be Charmed by Azgeda to deceive Clarke and take the throne from her. It was too much of a coincidence that this meeting between the human and Clarke was taking place just now and not before. He knew that there was something else going on and he planned on figuring out what it was. Although Clarke had exiled him, he could still show the Queen his usefulness and gain a pardon from her once he proved to her that the human was a traitor. It was very clear that humans would never be capable of loving vampires because of who they were (just like Murphy had been incapable of loving him).

Going through the hall, Bellamy could feel the familiar Primus aura of his Queen. Feeling that something was wrong, he left his bag and started to move towards the room, only to stop when he can feel the power reducing and becoming completely numbed. Surprised by the quickness with which Clarke controlled her inner beast, Bellamy lingers around the hall and quickly hears the human is inside with his friend. Feeling anger at the thought of the two of them together, Bellamy tries his best to control his emotions and smell so that he doesn't alert Clarke of his presence. But thankfully, the blonde vampire must have been worried about a more present and direct threat because he can hear her voice and the way it becomes too sweet and pleasant. Clarke was using her Charm and the human hearing it had no chance of resisting. Even from far away and with his own abilities, Bellamy had a hard time not falling victim to the tone and melody.

Exhaling in relief because Clarke stopped talking, he curiously stares at the young man that was leaving the room, and for some strange reasons decides to figure out what he knew. Getting close to him and earning his attention, Bellamy instantly uses his own Charm against the human.

"How about you and I have a talk." he tells him seductively and the boy gulps. "Away from prying eyes." he adds and the mundane nods in agreement.

Following the young boy, Bellamy starts to think of what he's doing. What is his plan here? He knows that the best way for Clarke to be protected was by making the brunette woman go away. He tried money, that didn't work. He tried to read her, she pushed him away. So what to do next? He knew that mundanes got scared easily, and because his Queen's relationship was so new, Bellamy realized that the brunette perhaps didn't know about the dangers of being with a vampire. The key was to make the human realize that she's at danger, and just like it had been with Murphy, she would choose her human life and leave Clarke behind. Once that happened, the blonde would realize that all he was trying to do was protect her and her feelings. She would forgive him. Or at least he would ask her to try. Still, although it was far-fetched, he had nothing to lose and a whole lot to gain. He decided to go along with it and learn what he could from this boy.

"Is this place ok?" the boy asks him once they arrive to an empty conference room.

"This is perfect." Bellamy smiles at him before getting closer. "Now, you will tell me what Miss Griffin made you forget." he tells him and the boy looks confused for a moment.

"I..." his new orders are challenging his old ones.

"Why do you think Miss Griffin doesn't want you around?" he knew he would never surpass the Queen's power. His Charm did not have Clarke's power and he knew that the best he could do was suggest and influence, not order, a mundane. "You can tell me." he smiles.

"Because she knows I like Lexa." the boy confesses while looking around him.

"You like Lexa."

"I love Lexa." the boy confirms with a soft smile. "She's just so wonderful and sweet. I must protect her from Miss Griffin."

"Why must you protect her?"

"Because Miss Griffin is not normal. She's dangerous and she'll hurt Lexa."

He suspects, Bellamy realizes. But how to make him believe that he's on his side?

"I believe so too." the vampire smirks. "And I want to help you get Lexa away from her."

"You want to help?" the boy asks suspiciously. "But you work for Miss Griffin."

"I used to work for her. I left because I also realized that she's not like you and I." he whispers and pretends to be scared. "We can't let her hurt Lexa." Bellamy lies and it hurts him to say nice things about the human.

"I care too." the boy says excitedly. "But she likes Miss Griffin and no matter what I tell her, Lexa doesn't stay away."

"Well, I know of a way that can make Miss Griffin stay away from her."

"How?" the boy whispers.

"I'll tell you." Bellamy promises him with a wicked smile. "Only if you agree to help me."

"Of course." he says excitedly. "Anything for Lexa."

Butterflies, that was what Clarke was now feeling at the bottom of her stomach. She was walking around the room, her face devoid of any emotion or sensation, putting a front of boredom and indifference. But inside it was a different story. Lexa had told her that she could love her and that had made Clarke's broken heart soar. She had been so terrified of not being enough, of being incapable of showing her soulmate what she felt, that to now know that her feelings were reciprocated elated her soul. But she couldn't show the world this, she had to pretend that nothing had changed and that she still remained the cold and powerful queen of the Coalition. Although Azgeda had been ordered to leave, Clarke still suspected that there were some spies mingling in the crowd. Unlike the meeting with the covens' Primus, this event was open to all vampires, which meant that there would be more people involved. She was not worried about any attempts on her life. Not only because it would be a dumb move for Azgeda to make, but because she trusted Miller and her guards with her safety. Also, even if it came to a physical altercation, she was pretty capable of taking care of herself. But she was worried about Lexa, and how people would react towards their bond and their relationship. She had already decided to not announce anything but not hide her mate away. She was hoping that the other mundanes attending the party with their vampire mates would do enough to hide Lexa's smell away from prying eyes. And if it didn't, Clarke was ready to stay by the brunette's side during the whole night.

Taking her cellphone out, the blonde vampire takes a look at the time and realizes that Lexa and Octavia are already running late. Huffing in annoyance but also trying to hide a smile, she quickly texts Lexa and tells her to come to the dinner. She immediately receives a 'coming' in return with a kiss face and a heart. And that, for some bizarre reason, makes Clarke blush and smile even more than before.

"Someone looks happy." she hears a familiar voice say from behind her and she turns around with a pleased smile.

"Anya." she nods in regards and the woman retaliates. "It's so nice to see you."

"Likewise my Queen." the brunette vampire says respectfully.

"Clarke." she reminds her. "We have been through too much together for you to not call me by my name."

"Just keeping things real." Anya jokes with her and it makes Clarke chuckle. "And from what I heard from my ambassador, it seems that we'll soon be fighting side by side."

"I hope not." she confesses. "The last thing I want for the Coalition is another war. And if Azgeda is smart enough they won't attack us directly."

"Indeed. Although brutal, Roan and Ontari are rather clever and cunning. For being Azgeda." she hisses and Clarke laughs.

"Don't underestimate them. Marcus did and look at what happened to him."

"We won't." Anya promises her. "But I have heard some rumors going around, some that I'm sure Azgeda has learned as well." the Trikru vampire stares at her. "Your second, Bellamy, was he truly exiled?"

"He was." Clarke tells the truth because she knows she can trust Anya. "He committed treason against his Queen."

"I'm sorry Clarke." she says softly. "I know he was your friend."

"I thought he was my friend." the blonde corrects her. "But don't you worry, Miller is now in command of my security team and he's just as capable as Bellamy was."

"He was Azgeda before he joined your clan." Anya reminds her.

"I'm aware." she murmurs while walking around the room in search of her mate. She had felt her presence in the room. "But until he does something that can confirm our suspicions, he will be allowed to roam freely around the other covens."

"That's dangerous Clarke." the Trikru vampire replies solemnly.

"My spies inside Azgeda will let me know if they see him at their settlement."

"I trust your judgment and you have Trikru's full support." she promises and that makes Clarke smile softly.

"And Trikru has Arkadia's full support as well." she grasps Anya's hand and shakes on it.

Before she can add something else, Clarke notices the way Anya flinches and that makes her stare at the vampire in surprise. Turning around to see what had made her friend so uncomfortable, she notices the way the Trikru vampire is focused on Raven and the way her eyes seem to follow her anywhere she goes. She knew that look very well because she was now sporting it as well.

"Does she know?" she asks softly and that makes Anya stare at her.

"What do you mean?" Anya avoids the subject.

"Raven..." she simply says. "Can be quite difficult when it comes to accepting certain things."

"You mean like the fact that we may be soulmates?" the brunette vampire chuckles darkly. "Yeah, I'm aware of that."

"Oh Anya." Clarke says sadly. "I'm sorry."

"Don't be." she replies disappointed. "I knew what I was doing when I sought her out. I just didn't expect her to be my soulmate and realize this while we were fucking each other."

Clarke flinches at the harshness and crudeness with which Anya is speaking and that makes her realize how affected the Trikru vampire was.

"I'm sorry Clarke." Anya apologizes and the blonde sees Raven approaching them. "I just can't do this right now."

"I understand." she replies honestly and watches her friend leave before Raven gets to her.

"Clarke." Raven tells her tersely and the blonde smiles softly at her. "Was it Anya the one that just left?"

"You know she was."

"I don't know what's wrong with her. Ever since we..." she stops herself from finishing the sentence.

"Maybe that is what's bothering her? The fact that you don't know what's going on?" Clarke helps her friend figure things out.

"Why does everyone have to speak in riddles to me? First Anya and now you." the hacker says completely pissed. "I need a drink."

"Wait Raven..." Clarke wants to stop her but forgets about her friends' drama when she notices familiar curly hair.

Moving as if connected to a rope, Clarke roams around different vampires and offers terse nods and words of welcome. She cannot stray her eyes away from the brunette in front of her, from the way her dress is hugging her curves to the softness of her skin. She can remember the feeling of that skin under her fingertips and lips, of the way that body fitted perfectly against her own and of the way those green eyes dilated when they kissed. Purring in delight and contentment, she doesn't care about the way some vampires stare at her, because all she can think of is getting to her mate, who decides in that moment to turn around.

Lexa sees her the moment she turns around, and were it not for Octavia's hand holding her still, she knows that she would have been capable of making a spectacle of themselves by attacking her mate. There was this desperation in the way they were looking at each other and she could feel her own legs quivering. But she stayed still, waiting for Clarke to come to her and do with her what she wished. She was ready to belong to the blonde, and no matter what, she was going to make that happen tonight. No more interruptions, no more hesitation and no more cold showers. She wanted to taste the forbidden fruit. She wanted to mark the alabaster skin. She wanted to bite the plump red lips. She wanted to watch the blue dissipate from Clarke's eyes and she wanted to be the one responsible for making her scream. She wanted Clarke.

"You made it." Clarke whispers while getting close to Lexa who was devouring her with her eyes.

"I told you I would." Lexa purrs and the sound of her voice makes Clarke close her own eyes.

"Clarke..." she can hear Octavia warning her. "Your eyes."

Feeling her self-control slipping away, she tries her best to push her inner beast back until the end of the dinner. Soft hands start touching her eye-lids and that seems to calm her tremendously. Opening her eyes, she can't help but smile softly at the sight of Lexa touching her, the way she was so sweet and warm about it.

"There are those beautiful blue eyes." Lexa teases her and that makes Clarke laugh.

"Thank you love." she kisses her mate's hand and keeps her close. "But you're late."

"Octavia's fault." she says while pointing at the brunette who merely shrugs in fake annoyance.

"She's trouble." Octavia jokes with them while staying close.

"Of course she is." Clarke says tenderly. "Trouble is her middle name."

"Very funny." Lexa mutters while looking around. "So this is it? This is a vampire party?"

"Are you disappointed?" Clarke can't help to say while laughing.

"I was just expecting something else."

"Let me guess, you were expecting people making out everywhere and some weird BDSM toys?" Octavia teases now and the brunette blushes.

"Maybe?" she confesses.

"As you will soon find out, vampires are very conservative and prudish when it comes to their sexuality." Clarke explains to her.

"No way." Lexa says surprised.

"Way." they hear a voice joining them and Clarke huffs in fake annoyance.

"This is Raven, my friend and head of intelligence at Arkadia." Clarke introduces them.

"Best friend." Raven adds while smirking at the mundane. "So you're the one who's had the Queen acting like a lovestruck teenager."

"Raven..." the blonde vampire threatens her but purrs by the end of her sentence because of Lexa's touch. "Not fair." she whispers.

"All's fair in love and war." Lexa teases softly.

"I like her." Raven smirks while shaking her hand. "Raven Reyes, genius hacker, vampire Casanova and gossip girl."

"Lexa Woods." Lexa says confidently. "Private Investigator, Hapkido black belt and human lover."

"You know Hapkido?" Octavia asks surprised. "That's so cool."

"Yes, but it doesn't help much against super strong vampires." she jokes and that tenses her mate. "I was only joking." she whispers to Clarke.

"I know." the blonde tries to calm down. "I just worry about you, that's all."

"Well, with you and Octavia by my side I don't, so relax." she explains.

"And me." Raven adds surely. "Besides, no one is looking at you two."

"It was a good idea to make this an inclusion event." Octavia says. "Other vampires also brought their mates."

"So I'm not the only human here?" Lexa asks curiously.

"No dear." Clarke smiles softly at her. "As long as a mundane is accompanied by a mate then they're welcomed here. Along with the members of the Trikru coven."

"The Trikru coven is a mixed coven formed of mundanes and vampires alike." Raven explains.

"I thought covens were only formed of vampires."

"That was the old way and many covens keep their covens like that." Clarke explains while moving around the people. "But the Primus of Trikru are different. They're hunters."

"Hunters? But they hunt down vampires."

"Not anymore." Octavia says with a soft smile. "Not since Clarke made peace with them. Now they're involved in the Coalition and form part of our culture. Surprisingly, some vampires joined them and ended up becoming a part of their coven as well. It's mixed."

"Interesting." Lexa replies honestly while taking a drink from one of the waiters. "So the waiters and some other guests are the only humans here?"

"Yes." Clarke tells her. "We call them mundanes because humans is used by some vampires as a derogatory term."

"Ok, got it." the brunette mundane smiles happily.

"You're right, it's so strange to see a mundane be so calm about all of these things." Raven tells her fellow vampire friends while they watch Lexa move around the room.

"She's very special." Clarke says tenderly.

"Ok lovey-eyes." Raven gets her friend's attention back. "What about that other thing we talked about?"

"What do you mean?" Clarke asks distracted.

"Completing the Bond." Raven huffs in fake annoyance. "When will that happen? Remember, now is not a good time for you to not be at your strongest."

"It will happen when it happens." the Queen says tersely.

"Clarke!" Octavia includes herself in the conversation. "I agree with Raven on this. It's clear that Lexa loves you and wants to be with you. Don't be afraid."

"I don't want to hurt her." she murmurs while keeping her head straight.

"You won't and you know that." Raven calms her. "Your inner creature loves your mate just as much as you do."

"I just don't want to pressure her."

"If she cares about you and she knows what you're going through right now, then she'll do whatever is necessary to keep you safe." Octavia adds.

"She knows, and she told me she wants me." Clarke confesses.

"Then why haven't you?!"

"Maybe because we keep getting interrupted!" Clarke hisses at them and both brunette vampires blush.

"Sorry." they both raise their hands in mock surrender.

"Well, what about now?" Raven asks. "I mean, I bet you already talked to the people you were meant to talk with?"

Clarke nods in agreement.

"Then why not leave with her? She already saw everything this room can offer, and besides, it is obvious that she wants to eat you." the hacker purrs and that makes Clarke close her eyes.

"Too much information." Octavia mutters. "But she's right. You should complete your Bond as soon as possible."

"I can't believe you're telling your Queen to go get laid." Clarke jokes with them.

"We're telling Clarke to go get laid." Raven winks at her.

"And to feed." Octavia adds. "We'll keep both of you safe from a safe distance." she promises.

"Appreciated." Clarke gives each a soft hug before searching for her mate.

Moving around the room, it doesn't take Clarke long to find Lexa, who is being closely watched by Miller and Harper. Thanking them from afar, Clarke hugs her mate from behind and starts moving them around the room in sync with the music.

"This feels nice." Lexa whispers to her while turning around to look at her.

"Yes it does." Clarke admits while moving them across the room.

"What about keeping our distance?"

"I don't care." the blonde says softly. "Besides, it was already an impossible thing to do since all I have done from the moment you got here is stare at you. I'm sure they can even smell my excitement."

"Oh Clarke." Lexa moans at the words the vampire whispers to her. "Let's go." she begs while kissing Clarke's lips.

"Where do you want to go?" she purrs seductively while biting Lexa's lips.

"You know where." the brunette stares at her with lust-filled eyes. "I want you to make me yours." she whispers and that makes Clarke moan.

"Your wish is my command." the blonde promises while quickly guiding them out of the room.
