Chapter 18

Finrador

“This wine is shit,” I grumbled as I took another sip.

Eran huffed. “It is the finest wine in the kingdom. Your palate is atrocious.”

Everything tasted like ash, the lingering flavor coating my tongue long after I swallowed down food or drink. It was not my palate that failed me.

Rage still lingered, but as the most violent of my anger dissipated, I found myself… discontented.

My mate was a female of great self-control. I saw her emotions battering her beneath the surface from the moment I laid eyes on her. It impressed me that she kept her face so impassive, her body so still. The only time I saw her passion was in battle.

Or when she took my cock.

That thought made me grimace, and I gulped the rest of the wine in my glass and waved a hand for a servant to refill it.

Eran shifted in his seat next to the throne. “What ails you, brother? You mated the witch. Soon you will make her swell and have her power. The war will end in our lifetime. What could be amiss?”

Sighing, I dropped my head back to look at the ornate gold, crimson, and cerulean ceiling carved with birds and leaves and depictions of battles worth remembering from my father’s and grandfather’s reigns. Soon, the battle to end the Winter War would be etched beside them; my glory stamped in the place of my forebears, bringing honor to my kingdom and fulfilling my duty.

My stomach revolted when I thought of how closely the blue tattoo on my mate’s back resembled some of the paint above me. I had explored, licked, and touched every line of the mark she chose for herself when I fucked her from behind, her glorious ass on display for me, her head thrown back in ecstasy, the sight of her pointed ears combined with the sound of her soulful cries driving my arousal higher. I had kissed the ridges of scars as I came inside her.

“My mate was displeased with the mating,” I finally admitted.

Eran stiffened for a moment before letting out a guffaw. I narrowed my eyes at him. “Do not say this to any of the males in your army,” he choked out between laughs. “But worry not, brother. You can learn to please your mate.”

My anger deflated. “I do not need to learn to please my mate. She was quite pleased with my efforts, but her infernal mind protested. She claimed I did not consider her when I mated her. She was… unconscious when I put the mark on her, as you and the Oracle suggested. After that…”

“She was ravenous.”

“Yes,” I muttered. Even in my doubt, I felt my cock harden at the memory of my savage faeling mauling me. I shook my head in disgust. “It does not matter. She is mine. Why should I care if she is distraught?”

Eran ran a hand over his mouth. “You do your duty to the kingdom regardless of her desires, but she is still your mate.” I looked at him in confusion, and he shrugged.
