Chapter 18
The next couple of days passed, toppling haunting suspicions and spinning colorful new bonds into vibrant swathes of kinship and acceptance. Cade grudgingly admitted that the vampire queen, Davina, was charming and enjoyable.
Of course, vampires are not so bad, look at their beautiful queen, he heard daily.
Didnât you hear how the queen stopped Mortimorâs bleeding when the axe felled him?
A besotted Tyrus strutted and pawed like a peacock for the queen, courting her favor like the lovesick puppy Cade teased him of being. To his paternal relief, she seemed enthralled by the cub and kind to his youthful infatuation. He didn't bother to object when Karina enlisted the help of Sunni, a trained mechanic, to assist the vampiresâ downed ship. Sunni, a young graemlin, was ecstatic to get his hands on the machinery, since Cade didnât allow any electronics in the sanctuary in order to preserve their secret presence.
Cade also didnât bother to argue with Karina about inviting more of the vampires to the sanctuary, not when it made Jason more self-assured. Gone was the fidgety uneasiness that Cade witnessed before, although sometimes Jason seemed lost behind a wall of sadness and suffered from restless sleep Cade was unsure how to breech or soothe. But every morning, they took to the skies, surveying the land, sweeping past the outstretched grasp of jagged mountain peaks and corralling scurrying clouds.
Cade was pleased to see Jason delighting in the assured agility of his raven-feathered wings. He remained captivated by Jasonâs flushed, windblown cheer, which only the rush of flight could bestow.
Similarly, he relished knowing their time among the clouds banished Jasonâs aversion to his vahanan traits; they even made time for Jason to practice using them, and they came naturally to him, with the exception of his protective shield.
Cade was surprised to learn how supportive Alexios was of Jasonâs acceptance of his heritage. He didnât underestimate his influence over Jason who, like Tyrus, still pursued the paternal favor he seemed to need from his sire. But Cade saw the pride in Alexiosâ eyes the first time he saw his son take to the air.
They spent their nights in sweaty pursuit of sexual fulfillment. Jason was wild and eager in Cadeâs arms, loudly responsive and lustfully pliant. His eagerness to please made Cade the recipient of Jasonâs wet mouth and seeking fingers all over his body.
His thoughts were consumed with Jasonâhis infectious curiosity, his kind charm, and his boyish smile that made Cade take leave of his senses.
Cade grew desperate to mark Jason as his own, to claim him as his forever mate, and see his flames blossom across Jasonâs chestâthe place he envisioned his mark would reside. Once a drogulis did this, they would want no other. Cade mentioned this to him one night as he lay on Jasonâs chest.
âWill it hurt?â Jason asked as he fingered Cadeâs hair.
âIt may sting.â Cade moved his palm across Jasonâs warm flesh, seeing the fire beneath his hand in his mindâs eye.
âHavenât you done it before?â
âNo.
