Chapter Eight

Venom

I felt my father's power put a barrier between me and the representatives.

A soft touch to my cheek. The smell of fresh rainfall. Warm breath fanned over my ear and all my rage disappeared.

"It's alright mate. I'm not going anywhere," I melted from those words.

I shifted back to my demon form, "You will release my mate from fighting in Hell's Pit and he will be staying with me. Until the end of time," I said glaring at each and every one of the representatives.

I pulled a fully clothed Mareck onto my lap. Huh? He shifted back, he's 'sposed to be buck assed naked. My wizard of a brother, always looking out for me. Thanks I mouthed to Murdha. He nodded in response.

"We can't release your mate unless he either goes with us or mates with you. And since he's not mated then that means he doesn't accept you as such, Demon," the rat looking fuck says with a stupid smirk.

"I accept Venom as my mate. The only reason we haven't mated yet is because I want to save him the pain of losing his mate if I fall in the arena," Mareck says gripping my hand.

"Oh? Um... Well you know once a slave or omega mates they take the status of their mate. So if you two do a proper mating ceremony then Mareck automatically becomes a Prince of Hell," the only woman in the group speaks up. The rest of them glared at her.

"All Mareck has to do is find somebody to take his place at the games and everything will be fine," she grits out glaring equally at her comrades.

"Seriously? That's all?" I asked just to make sure.

"Yes."

"No," the rat bastard said loudly.

"Um.. What about council meetings? The boy has to be present for those," he awkwardly cleared his throat when my brothers stared hard at him.

"Mareck can show up to meetings. He doesn't have to live in our realm. You freaking know that. Ugh! You are all selfish bastards. Leave the boy be. He deserves happiness. The universe alone knows why we even still have slavery," the woman speaks up with a disgusted look on her face.

All I got was that Mareck would be free once we mate and he has to show up to their stupid council meetings every once in a while. So now I just gotta bed my mate and everything would be fine and dandy.

"Can my replacement be anybody?" Mareck asked and shit, I forgot about that.

Mareck

I was really happy Venom's brother is a wizard. I'd hate to be naked in front of so many people. I was currently trying to figure out if my friend Tate, who is also an omega can compete. I think he'd have a good chance. He's a good fighter. A bit blood thirsty but he's great.

"Yes, anyone can take your place once they are a slave," Eva, the only female representative said.

"And could we also sponsor him?" I asked as well.

"Yes," she raised a brow.

"Do you have someone on your mind to take your place?" Eva asked.

"Yes, my friend Tate. He's an omega also," I murmured. Looking at Venom I tugged his hand.

"hmm?"

"Would you sponsor him? I know you spent a fortune on me already," I murmured quietly to him.

"Anything for you love," he says and I hugged him.

"So it's settled. Mareck will mate with Prince Venom and the omega Tate will take his place at Hell's Pit," Eva looks around at us and we all nodded eagerly while the tribunal representatives reluctantly did so too.

Before I could thank them Venom teleported us back home.

"Hey! I didn't say good bye."

"Don't care," Venom mutters pulling me into our bedroom. Is he seriously thinking of sex right now?

"Just let me hold you," Venom says pulling me on top of him while he lay on his back. I buried my face in his neck and he hugged me tightly. We lay like that until one of the workers knocked on the door.

"My Lord, Prince Alexios is outside waiting for you. He says High Lord Lucifer is awaiting yours and Lord Mareck's arrival for dinner."

"Tell him we'll be there in a few minutes," Venom says loudly.

"Would you mate me Mareck?" Venom asked quietly.

"Yes," I whispered "but can we do it next week?" I mumbled.

"Yes," Venom hugged me tightly and kissed my head, "let's go back to dad's," he grumbled and teleported us. I half expected us to arrive just as we were but instead I was standing with Venom's arms around my waist as he stood behind us.

"Welcome back Mareck, Ven," Lucifer says pulling me from my musing.

"um.. Thanks?" seriously, what am I supposed to say? How am I to act? They're all royalty here. I don't even know how to use eating things.

Ven pulled out a chair for me and I sat looking around at his brothers with wide eyes. Gosh! The Nine Princes of Hell. I'm having dinner with the Nine Princes of Hell!

Everyone started eating and I followed suit. We didn't use the spoons and forks and knives. We had burgers so the only thing we used was a glass to drink with. Ven's brothers and their mates, Caleb and Ascari asked me questions and I answered awkwardly when they looked directly at me. They each introduced themselves and I felt a little more comfortable with them. I liked Caleb, he is so much like Tate. Outspoken and blunt. He drooled all over my hair. The compliments just kept on coming.

Venom announced we would mate next week and I just nodded when he squeezed my hand in his.

I was more comfortable talking with Lucifer. We already had a good rapport from when he was training me. We finished eating and talked a bit more before everyone started leaving.

We went straight to bed after Venom kissed me like a dying man. He showed me what he liked and I learned quickly. I officially loved those lips of his. I sighed contentedly when Venom spoons me from behind.

"Sleep love," he whispered.
