Chapter 133

Anila’s POV

I was so exhausted after taking all my mates at once that I nearly passed out after my orgasm. Once they were out of me, they cleaned me up and then cleaned up our mess from the picnic. I used Harley as a bed as I curled up against him, pressing my head against his chest. We were all still naked, except for Damien who had got dressed right after.

I thought there would be a bit of awkwardness between them afterward, but there wasn’t. In fact, they all acted as if they were friends for a long time. Even Damien was joining them with some jokes and laughing. I was too tired to engage in conversation and Harley kept his warm arms around my body, pressing me further into him. His fingers traced my spine gently, sending goosebumps around my body.

Once everything was clean, Harley stood, lifting me into his arms. We went towards Xaden’s cabin so we could rest for the night. I made it clear that I didn’t want any of my mates to go anywhere else. I needed them tonight because I had a strange feeling that something big was going to happen in the near future. I just wanted to feel good before all hell broke loose.

Harley tucked me into Xaden’s large bed and then he slid in beside me, wrapping me in his arms again. Xaden lay on the other side of me, also wrapping me in his arms. Zach and Damien laid on the ends and though they couldn’t touch me, I could feel through their mate bond that they were content and just as tired.

I was woken by the sound of a phone ringing. I’m not sure how long I had been sleeping, but I knew my mates were still surrounding me before I even opened my eyes. it was Harley who groaned and reached over Zach to grab his phone on the nightstand. When he looked at the screen, he frowned.

“Yeah?” He asked sleepily into the phone as he laid back down.

I was too tired to listen to what was being said, but Harley’s jolt made my eyes open, and I looked up at him, seeing that he was now sitting up.

“Right now?” He asked, glancing at the clock on the nightstand. “It’s early. The sun is still up.” After another pause, he let out a breath. “Okay. I’ll be there soon.”

Without another word, Harley hung up the phone.

“What’s wrong?” Xaden asked, also waking up from the sound of Harly’s phone call.

“My father said there’s going to be an Alpha meeting,” he murmured. “For both bears and wolves. Which means, we need to return to our packs.”

Xaden sat up with a frown. He reached over Damien and grabbed his phone off the nightstand as well and glanced at the screen.

“Oh, fuck. Zach, wake up,” Xaden said as he quickly tried to get out of bed.

Both Zach and Damien were now awake from the commotion.

“What’s going on?” Zach asked, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

“Fuck what time is it?” Damien asked, squinting to look at the clock but he couldn’t see it because he wasn’t wearing his glasses.

“Dad called me a million times. There’s an Alpha meeting happening soon. We need to go.”

“You mean you need to go,” Zach murmured. “I’m not an Alpha, remember?”

“Aren’t you curious about what it’s about?”

“You can fill me in later,” Zach murmured, covering his face with his arm as he attempted to go back to sleep.

“I should get back to my dorm,” Damien said stretching. “I have to meet with Professor Rapport before the competition so I should shower and change.”

Before he slid out of bed, he leaned over and kissed me on the cheek.

“I’ll see you at the competition though. Don’t be nervous. You got this today,” he said softly, kissing my cheek again before he left the bed, leaving me feeling alone and cold without the nearness of my mates. My inner animals didn’t like the fact that we were all separating.

“What do you think the meeting is about?” I asked, looking at them as they pulled on their clothes.

“Who knows,” Harley murmured as he handed me my shirt and shorts. “I’m sure it’s nothing.”

“A meeting with all the Alphas though? It must be serious, “I said, my brows pinching together.

“Don’t worry about it,” Harley said, kissing my forehead gently. “All you have to worry about is the competition this evening. You should get some more rest. Just because we are leaving doesn’t mean you have to.”

“I’ll stay with her,’ Zach yawned.

‘You really aren’t coming?” Xaden asked, his brows raised.

“Why would I?” Zach asked, looking at Xadne. “It’s an Alpha meeting.”

“Just because you aren’t taking over as Alpha, doesn’t mean you aren’t an Alpha. You still have Alpha blood, just like me,” Xaden reminded his brother.

Zach ignored him, keeping his arm over his eyes to shield the light from disturbing his precious rest.

“Will you keep me updated?” I asked them.

“Of course,” Xaden said, bending to brush his lips against mine. “We’ll be back in time to see you win this competition.”

I smiled, but I knew it didn’t reach my eyes. it was admittedly worried.

Being able to read it on my face and thanks to the mate bond, they all knew I was worried.

Soon, Xaden and Harley were off.

“I’ll see you in a bit,” Damien said, giving me a quick hug and a peck on the lips before he too left the cabin, leaving me alone with Zach.

The second we were alone, it was like Zach got a second surge of energy and he grabbed me, pulling me into his arms and pinning me beneath him.

“Zach!” I gasped. His lips attacked mine and he kissed me deeply, his lips trailing down the nape of my neck until he reached the mark on my neck that he left on me. He nibbled and sucked on the neck, deepening it and making it fresh again.

I couldn’t help but chuckle as I ran my fingers through his hair.

“Aren’t you the least bit concerned about what the Alphas want?” I asked him, trying to keep him on topic.

“I’m only concerned about getting you to myself and now I do,” he purred, his lips trailing down my bare shoulders, sending warmth to course through my body.

“I still have a bad feeling, Zach,” I tried to say, but my voice came out breathy.

“Then, let me give you a good feeling,” he teased as he lifted me into his lap. In one quick motion, he was inside of me. I gasped at the feeling and suddenly all thoughts were gone from my head. I moved my hips against his, feeling him deep inside of me as he nibbled on that sweet spot he marked. “How are you still so tight after taking us all?”

“I don’t know,” I breathed as I continued to bounce on him, quickening my pace as his manhood stroked my G-spot.

“You look so good when you ride me,” Zach said as his lips closed around my nipple, tugging it into his mouth.

He gripped my hips and thrust even faster until we were both moaning and panting. It didn’t take us long for us to reach our peak and soon, Zach was coming undone inside of me and I was falling apart on top of him.

He kissed my sweaty temple and kept me pressed against him, his manhood throbbing inside of me still.

“You’re so beautiful,” he whispered. I lifted my head and brushed my lips against his.

I heard my phone vibrating before I saw the screen light up. I hadn’t realized I had it on vibrate.

I pulled myself away from Zach, his manhood slipping out of me and I smiled at the pout on his lips. I grabbed my phone and glanced at the screen.

When I saw the screen, my entire heart fell into my stomach.

I had a dozen missed calls from Penny and a ton of messages from the group chat I had with my friends.

“Holy shit,” I whispered, my brows furrowed.

“What’s wrong?” Zach asked, looking over my shoulder at my phone.

“I don’t know,” I said softly as I went through the messages of the chat.

Sage: Where are you? Get back to your dorm!

Penny: It’s an energy. I’ve tried to call a million times. Get back here!

Sadie: You really need to get back to the dorm, Anila!

Panic started to consume me; I knew something was wrong…

“I have to get back to my dorm,” I told him as I struggled to get out of bed. I pulled on my shorts and tank top, not realizing that Zach was also getting dressed.

“I’ll go with you,” he told me, looking just as urgent.

I smiled gratefully at him.

Together, we went from the cabin and back to the dorms. Thankfully it was still fairly early so nobody was awake yet to question Zach.

I thought I was at least semi-prepared to deal with anything at this point, despite being on edge, I thought I was prepared for whatever waited for me back in my dorm.

But nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to see as soon as I pushed open the door and I saw all my friends in the room.

My entire body froze and for a second, I forgot how to breathe.

This couldn’t be real.

“Is that a….” Zach started to ask, but his words trailed off.

He didn’t need to finish his sentence because it was obvious.

In the middle of the room was a giant Dragon.
