Chapter twenty-one
We strolled back into the house covered in mud, leaves, twigs and blood. Oh and not one ounce of clothing. I felt glorious, I wanted to shout from the rooftops that not only had I found my mate but he had taken me to a whole new level of euphoria. I heard the distinct sound of my mate purring beside me and I launched myself at him and wrapped my arms around his neck kissing him thoroughly.
"What is that for?" The Major asked.
"No reason, I'm just sooooo happy right now."
"Good to know considering you clamped down on your shield again and I can't feel a thing." He pouted.
"Sorry baby, let's get inside and cleaned up. The house will be filled with wolves any minute now and I know how you get if someone sees more than they should of me." I replied.
"Are you referring to the fact that you now have a Jasper sized bite mark on your left ass cheek and bites over both of your nipples?" Garrett chuckled.
Major growled and crouched while pulling me behind his tense frame.
"Whoa Major you know he's only messing with you. Don't hurt him, we need the numbers for the battle with Maria." Peter spoke already kneeling in a submissive pose with his eyes on the floor.
"Damn squirt nice rack! Ooh look Mary she has an ass to match those perfect tits. I think it's been about 20 years since we saw something that tight, besides you of course." Randall interjected.
Major of course was growling again and Garrett was still laughing causing the Major to twitch just a bit as if he was releasing a bit of energy trying to maintain his stance. Rose and Em were now entering the room but before Em could see me Rose quickly pounced on him and pulled him into a searing kiss effectively distracting him. That's it now Char has entered the room well since the gangs all here I might as well have some fun with my powers. The Major of course was no help he was now biting at the air trying to intimidate all the males. Shit you would think that these men have never seen a naked woman in their hundreds of years existence! Of course said female just happens to be a Succubus and from time to time drops her shield so that her mate can feel her emotions. Well I guess since I brought this on I should really put the fear of Enyo in them. Here goes nothing!
"All of you eyes on the floor NOW!" I growled. But this time my voice sounded different, not like me or Enyo. It had the sultry tone to it which captures everyone's attention but it also sounded a bit slower and it had an echo to it. No not an echo, the echo was actually a chorus of different toned voices repeating what I was saying. I feel like I am in the middle of a strange sci fi movie with me as the lead character.
"You will maintain this position until we have entered our room. No one but Char or Peter may approach our door until the wolves get here, is that clear?" I bellowed in the same strange voice.
Funny as it may seem I felt a sense of pride from the resounding call of 'yes ma'am' from everyone in the room. I started to walk towards the steps but noticed that the Major wasn't moving and then I realized that he was also affected by my command.
"Come Major, they need to stay in this room. You are coming with me to the shower." I cooed while kissing his cheek and tugging on his arm.

"Why can't I come with you Jacob?" Angela whined.
"Because we will be training the entire time. It will be quite boring for you, besides Emily and Kim need your help here. We are having a bonfire to celebrate our imprint and to bless the upcoming battle." Jake replied kissing her forehead.
"Will I get to see Bella before you all leave?"
"I doubt I can hold her back or you for that matter. You are going to be a handful aren't you?" Jacob questioned.
"Whatever would make you think that?" Angela replied with a smirk.
"Mmhmm, that's what I thought. Come on, I'll drop you off at Sam and Emily's place."

"Aah Christian, I see you made it back in one piece. Oops, I spoke too soon. I see the Major still likes to torture by keeping a portion of his victim in his control. So tell me how much did you tell him about our camp?" Maria asked the ragged looking Christian.
"Everything. Why do you ask? I know your fortune teller has already given you that answer." Christian replied.
"Yes but she has been having blank spots and can't always get a read on the Major. She has decided to feed almost constantly in hopes to boost her visions."
"I take it that it's not working out for her then?!"
"No, she thinks he has someone with him blocking her abilities." Maria sighed.
"Maybe his mate is that person. The only others with him are the Captain and his mate." Christian replied dismissively.
"Mate? He has a mate and I am just now finding out about it!" Maria bellowed slamming her fist into the table effectively splitting it in two.
"Yes, she is quite beautiful."
"Who is she? What is her name?" Maria seethed.
"I do not know. Just that she has creamy pale skin and long wavy mahogany hair and stands about 5'7 inches tall give or take." Christian spoke wistfully.
"She must be beautiful to have such a longing effect on you."
"That she is."
"Well it is of little concern to me. I out power and man the Major he will submit to me once more. I might even use Rebecca to persuade him to kill his little mate. I will have my Major back and will use the seer's ability to overthrow the Volturi. I will hide from royalty no more." Maria declared.
As Christian left Maria's house and returned to his tent he thought of what the future held and if it were possible for Maria to win. He highly doubted that Maria would escape unscathed. He knew that Maria's seer was Alice and her visions were based on decisions. It is easy to get around her visions or at a minimum make it so she doesn't see them until too late. Also Maria was not aware of the fact that he himself had a gift and so far he had hidden it from her and her followers, hell even the God of War himself didn't push to find out what it was. When the time was right he would unleash his power and be free from Maria and this life of war.

"Edward, Darling I'm back!" Alice sang into the house.
Aah the little hellcat is back from her scheduled call to Maria. My precious little mate thinks she can withhold important information from me. Ha. I can read her mind from 25 miles away not the three everyone believes.
"Have a nice hunt my dearest?" I cooed in return, lifting her up to my height to nuzzle her neck.
"Someone is anxious for another scene." Alice giggled.
"Not at this moment pet, I want to try a new game. Are you up for some fun?"
"Always darling. What's this game called?" Alice asked as she stroked my hair and held me tighter.
I took this moment to look her dead in the eyes capturing her complete attention. Her pupils dilated and her unnecessary breath slowed. She was now putty in my hands. Without taking my eyes off of her I slowly set her down and proceeded to remove every article of clothing from her body. I could smell her arousal and took a deep breath of it before proceeding.
"It's called tell me all your secrets, Alice." I whispered and she shuddered before proceeding to tell me every single secret she had been keeping since changing into a vampire. God I love being me!

"Damn Bells did you two fuck from the moment you left last night until the moment we showed up on your front porch?" Jake bellowed.
Jasper of course growled.
"Like it's any of your business but yes, yes we did. You should see the music room and Edward's piano. I'm sure he will shit the proverbial brick when he sees it." I replied.
"No thanks, take a picture and send it to my phone. The scent coming off you is more than I can handle. You smell like sex and Jasper."
"Well if that ain't the pot calling the kettle black Jacob. You reek of apples and sex. Now who do we know that smells like apples? Oh that's right my best friend, why is she not here?!" I replied angrily.
All the wolves started to get both nervous and turned on at the same time from the emotions I was portraying.
"Shield darlin', you're working the wolves up into a frenzy with your attitude and behavior." Jasper whispered into my ear. God this man always knows how to calm me.
"She's with the other imprints preparing for the bonfire tonight. It's to welcome Angela and as a blessing for the four of us going into battle. Besides she needs a little down time after last night." Jacob chuckled.
I swooped in before anyone knew I was moving. I had him in the air being held by my shield around his throat. Before the wolves could attack I had another shield around both of us blocking them out. Snarls were coming in all directions and my mate and friends were crouched ready for battle.
"Bella Darlin' you need to let him go right now." Jasper drawled hoping that the accent would sway me. I just ignored him.
"It will be alright Major, she just needs to here Angela's voice." Peter called from several feet away.
"Where is she Jacob Black, she doesn't have a phone for me to call." I replied, hearing my voice change to the lower raspier sound that belonged to Enyo.
"She has my phone, she's at Emily's with the other imprints." Jake rasped as he gagged for air.
"Is she marked, bruised or hurt in any way? Was it consensual?" I demanded.
"Yes I marked, no she isn't harmed." He wheezed.
"And was it consensual?"
"The sex, hell yeah. The marking was all my wolf but she got me back. Up until leaving the house I had eight claw marks on my back from her last climax. Take a look it should still be red and raw."
Sure enough he had the marks, a good sign of a thoroughly fucked Angela but I still needed to here it from her directly. I called Jake's phone and waited for Angela to pick up.
"Jake's phone, Angela speaking." Came happily through the phone.
"Ang? It's Bella are you injured?"
"No, not unless you call me bumping my head into the silverware drawer when I was pulling a pot out of the cabinet earlier." She replied.
"And your marking from Jake was that the only thing he did to you?" I asked.
"Oh no he did plenty of THINGS to me Bella boo but I'm not going into detail considering I know that at least 16 pairs of supernatural ears are listening. But I will give you this clue: bed, wall, shower and bed again!" Angela giggled.
"Damn pup, you got yourself a feisty one!" Randall called out then Mary hit him on the back of the head.
WHACK! "Ow woman." "Moron, leave the pup and his woman alone."
"Alright sweetie, I just wanted to check. By the way, sorry for going a little crazy on Jake. I just worry about you."
"He's in one piece right? You didn't bite him did you?"
"No I just kind of held him off the ground by his neck with my shield." I whispered.
"Bella, apologize right now then hand the phone to him."
"I'm sorry Jake, she means a lot to me. I just worry. Here talk to your girl." I apologized.
"Hi Babe!" Jake wheezed into the phone.
"Are you really okay baby?"
"Yes I'm fine. I gotta go okay. See you in a bit." Jake cooed into the phone.
Jake handed the phone back to me and it reeked of wet dog, woods, apples and sex. Eeeew, gross!
"Jasper please tell me we have some wet wipes or something to get rid of this smell?! Damn Jake what did you do bath in Eau de Angela?" I snipped.
Of course all the wolves laughed at Jake's expense.
