Chapter 131

Irma

I am one tormented female..

My beautiful mate with dark grey skin, long white hair, and the most perfectly sculpted body in the

history of s*xy fairies is happily asleep. There’s a smile on his face because he was able to finish

earlier, while I’m having trouble closing my eyes because my cunt is on fire.

I want sex, godd*mn it!

A groan leaves my lips….

HOW COULD JOAQUIN JUST FINISH ON THE GROUND LIKE THAT?!

A pout forms on my lips as I look up at his face. Joaquin shrunk me before falling asleep so that I

wouldn’t be able to “take advantage of him, which isn’t f*cking fair.

How am I supposed to ride his d*ck when his fingers are taller than me? He is such a cold-hearted

b*stard!

I experimentally sniffle before approaching him, weding myself between his face and arm. His warm

breath hits my back, and I shiver, my skin prickling at the sensation His chest rises and falls

rhythmically, a lullaby for the night that only stirs my yearning further. I reach out to trace the muscled

contours of his bicep, a sigh escaping from my lips as the warmth of his skin seeps into my fingers.

In sleep, Joaquin seems less formidable, less like the giant who torments me, and more like the lover I

ache to possess. My frustration with him is lulled by his tranquil slumber. But my physical wants… they

are another matter entirely.

Suddenly, Joaquin stirs. His hand wraps around me without opening his eyes, pulling me closer until

I’m flush against his chest like I’m his own personal teddy bear.

A sigh leaves my lips. “You’re determined to make this hard for me, aren’t you?”

Joaquin doesn’t respond, and somehow, I manage to relax against him. It doesn’t take long before I fall

asleep, but the dream. I enter is…weird.

I’m back in Haven City, but everything is dark, and there are demons everywhere. People are

screaming in the background, and every car on the street is on fire..

“There you are!” Skylar says, and I whip around, shocked to see my sister running up to me. She is

panting. “I can’t believe I managed to visit you in your dreams. Our connection is stronger than I

thought.”

“Well, we’re sisters, aren’t we?” I grin at her even though I’m convinced this is all because of Skylar.

My sister’s psychic powers are honestly a bit scary. She is crazy powerful-there’s no wonder Alpha Max

and Lucian are interested in her. They might even kidnap her once they learn how strong she is. The

idea of that makes my blood boil. I don’t want anyone to hurt my sister.

“I’ve been trying to reach you,” she puffs, her eyes darting around the chaotic scene. Her face is pale

but determined. “Everything’s going haywire, and we need your help.”

“My help? What can I do?” I ask, folding my arms across my chest. “I’m still in the magical realm, and

our parents aren’t back yet.”

Skyler looks at me seriously then. “You have to find them and bring them back. Alpha Max has already

summoned back the eternal night, and there are demons everywhere.”

“Oh shit…”

“Yup,” she sighs. “I honestly don’t know what to do. Lucas and 1 Have fought so many demons that I’ve

lost count, and they all seem to be after the same thing.”

“And what is that?”

“Me…” She grimaces. “It turns out Alpha Max is more set than ever to make me his wife. It doesn’t

matter that Lucas has marked me. He still wants me to carry his pup. At least that’s the information we

have been given by the many talkative demons we have defeated.”

“Da*n…guess I should really try and find our parents then.”

“You should.”

“There is just one slight tiny problem…no pun intended.”

Interest flashes over her face. “And what is that?”

A sheepish grin breaks over my lips. “Well, my mate.. Joaquin…he sort of shrunk me after finding out

I’ve dated other men before him, and now, he is busy ignoring me. It’s some kind of punishment.”

Skylar laughs. “Sorry, sis, but I’m with Joaquin on this one. You’ve dated way too many guys.

“And? It’s not like I knew I had a fated mate out there!”

“That’s a valid point,” Skylar grins. “You should talk to him.

“How? He is ignoring me!”

“Meh, he is just pretending,” Skylar says, and that’s when I realize the dream is fading away.

“You’re leaving already?” I ask.

“Yeah. It’s time for you to wake up!

“But the dream was so short!”

“Nah, we have been here for hours,” she smiles. “Good luck with Joaquin and try to find our parents,

will you? I need them to

come home.”

“Will do, sis,” I promise as the chaos of Haven City fades to black. I gulp down the lump in my throat,

making a silent promise to Skylar and myself. I will bring our parents back.

The moment I open my eyes, I’m greeted by the sparkling orange eyes of Joaquin. His arms are

around me protectively, yet he doesn’t utter a word, keeping our conversation strictly one-sided.

“Joaquin,” 1 start, finding the courage to stand up against his ignorance. He doesn’t respond, but his

gaze never leaves mine. “Joaquin,” I repeat and place my hands on his nose, “we need to talk.”

Ignoring the fact that I’m barely taller than one of his fingers and practically standing on my tiptoes to

look him in the eye, I continue, “I know you’re upset with me. And yes, you have a right to be. But we

can’t afford this silent treatment anymore.

Skylar needs us.”

Joaquin’s eyes soften slightly, which is a hopeful sign. I continue my words tumbling out in a rush. “And

no, I’m not trying to minimize the problem. I know you’re upset about my past. And while I can’t change

that, I can promise you this……” I pause to look deep into his eyes, trying to let him see the sincerity in

mine. “You’re my mate. And only you. No one else matters.”

His lips part, but I’m not done.

“I love you, I respect you, and I won’t ever cheat on you. I think you know that already. I hope you do.

And yes, I know we might need to talk about this again, but Skylar reached me in a dream.” I relayed

everything my sister told me about Alpha Max, Lucas, and the eternal night.

As I speak, Joaquin’s eyes flicker with a myriad of emotions. He stays silent, intently listening to every

word I say the threats from Alpha Max, the battles Lucas and Skylar have been waging, and the

looming darkness that threatens to engulf

our world.

His silence is unnerving, but I press on, “We need to find my parents, Joaquin. Skylar’s in danger, and

she needs them. We need them.”

For a moment, he remains quiet, his gaze fixed on me with an intensity that makes it hard for me to

breathe. Then, in a soft voice that sends shivers down my spine, he finally breaks the silence.

“I understand,” he says. “The past is in the past. What matters is what we do now.””

“Great” I beam at him. “So, if you could just undo this spell and turn me back-“I shriek and trail off when

Joaquin’s fingers curl around my body.

There’s a grin

a grin on his face. “No can do. You’re still being punished he teases and places me on his shoulder.

What the hell is he doing?!

I want to glare at him but find myself having to grip his hair when he flickers his wings as if getting

ready to take flight..

“And what exa

exactly is my punishment for?” I laugh despite the semous situation we’re in.

“For not apologizing sooner,” there is humor in his voice, and I realize he is just messing with me.

I roll my eyes. “What’s the real reason?”

He laughs. “It’s easier to fly like this.”

Before I have a chance to respond, the wind howls around us as Joaquin takes off. We rise high above

the jungle, its trees shrinking below us

The winds, however, are strong, and I hug Joaquin’s neck, molding myself against it for shelter. He

notices this and lifts his hand as if to prevent me from falling, pressing his palm lightly against me. God,

I’m so tiny. Every now and then, I’m unnerved by how much I trust Joaquin.

“How is that?” He asks quizzically as if trying to pick up on any signals of discomfort.

“It’s… it’s fine,” I respond, my words stolen by the wind and drowned in the whirling noise of our flight.

“Just fine?”

Annoyed with his questioning, I blurt out the truth, “I’m afraid of heights, okay? This is scary!”

“Aww, are you scared I would drop you?”

“Knowing how evil you can be, you’re probably already planning on it.”

“What? Me? Never. Risking my mate’s life is out of the question. You’re safe with me, Snacci.”
