The Delta's Daughter Chapter 111
KELLEN
I walked back down to the village, cutting across the fields, ready to go home. My good bye with Lamia playing on my mind, I know she isn’t mine, but it still doesn’t make me love her any less. I needed to say what I did, and my wolf was in agreement.
I have tried to let her go, and I did, for a while. When Zane died, all I wanted to do was be there for her, but she left.
She left me.
Once upon a time, she told me she would never leave me.
I saw the way she looked at King. I chuckled at the thought, even his name is king! The love she held in her eyes for him. I knew Lamia loved, loves, me, but she had never had that look in her eye, not for me and not for Zane. The look of true love.
I couldn’t help but give her one last kiss when I went to say good bye to her. It was amazing how there were still light tingles when I brushed my lips against hers. I reveled in them, for however brief that kiss was.
I wasn’t saying good bye, I was letting her go.
It was time to let go of my love for her. If I didn’t, then there was no hope of me moving on.
She will always be mine, and I will forever cherish that I had all her firsts.
In the distance, I saw my men, packing up their tents. They two were ready to go back home and we had a long journey ahead of us. I was ready to go home, but Mike and I were making a detour, to Lonely City and meeting up with Tobias to celebrate Mike turning 21 next week.
I think we were due for some fun. Uncle Marcus and Uncle Michael could handle things for another week. They understood I needed time. I hadn’t fully processed my parents' death either. I just kind of pushed them aside, focusing on defeating the enemy.
Oliver had been seen at Riocht, but the sneaky bastard disappeared when the fighting began. I would be ordering fresh trackers to hunt him down as soon as I had a cell signal. And as much as I wanted to tear him to shreds, I also wanted to see him suffer, which is why I promised to hand him over to Travis.
I came across King and Lucien as I neared the end of the field. I could hear them discussing things about Riocht, making plans.
“Ahh King Kellen Moon,” Lucien bowed when I strode up to them. “I hope we will be seeing you back here again, sometime soon?” He questioned.
“Maybe,” I gave him the short answer and nodded my head at King in acknowledgement.
“Well, you are a member of this clan, King Kellen, we would be honored for you to visit us.” I quirked my eyebrows at him, and cocked my head.
“What do you mean, how am I a member?” They were Lycans, Lamia and King were the crowned royals here. Why would I be a member of their clan?
“Well, seeing as your great grandfather was a Guardian Alpha, I assumed you would want to know where you came from. Where your royal blood stem's from? Where do you think got those glowing blue eyes from?" Lucien said while tapping the side of his head with a knowing smirk.
My eyes bugged out at his words, “I thought I was from the Morrigan line, not Guardian?”
“Your great grandfather was from the Morrigan line, but he was a Guardian, just as you are, your majesty. All Moon royal wolves derive from the Guardian Clan.” He looked at me like I should have known this, maybe I did, maybe I was told before.
I don’t remember my father or my grandfather ever telling me about this. I knew Royal wolves had Lycan blood in them, but I never really knew from where, until Lamia said we were from the Morrigan line.
“Huh, I didn’t realize it,” I admitted. “In that case, I will make it my mission to come back and visit after my official crowning and get to know my heritage better.”
“I would like that, your highness.” Lucien bowed to me, a humble smile on his face “Safe travels King Kellen.”
I thanked him and held my hand out for King. Mathias took my hand then brought me into a bro-hug, clapping me on the back. “I promise to look after her” His authoritative voice held sincerity and I had no doubt he would cherish our Queen.
“Thank you King,” I swallowed the large lump in my throat. Technically, this man was my king now, Lamias' mate, and his aura was strong. “I have no doubt you will. We will see you both soon.” I bid him good bye and then joined my men, just waiting for Mike before we headed out.

MATHIAS
I spoke to Lucien today. I wanted to know what was expected from us now Lamia and I had been crowned King and Queen of shifters.
He explained, as much as the Guardian Clan wanted us to make Riocht our home, it didn’t matter where our permanent residence was. He said there was no rush to decide either, that the Guardians would take care of the kingdom like they had always done, until we were ready, if we were ever ready.
I wanted to tell my little wolf as soon as possible, thinking this would ease her mind a little. I know she has been feeling the stress of everything. I could see it in her eyes, they looked tired and she had lost a little bit of that shine in them.
I made my way back to our cottage, greeting Clan members as I went. For the past two days I had been wearing a permanent smile on my face, happy that I had killed Orion, happy that I had my little mate and happy that Arcas hadn’t been giving me grief. He seemed placid and tranquil for the first time ever.
It made me feel like everything was right with the world. However, I still aired on the side of caution because life had a way of throwing a spanner into the mix and I didn’t want to jinx us.
I reached the tiny cottage and opened the door, getting a large whiff of my little wolfs scent. Immediately, the smell of brown sugar and vanilla made my mouth water and the loose cotton pants I was wearing suddenly became tight, my cock standing to attention at the even sweeter smelling aroma of our Queen.
I could hear her in the bedroom, and in three strides, because the place was that small, I was leaning up against the door frame. Watching as she folded our clothes and neatly placed them in drawers.
“Hi!” She breathily said with a large grin on her face. Her eyes seemed to have a little more life in them now, compared to this morning.
“Hi,” I said and moved into the room, taking her in my arms by the waist and pressing her against me so she could feel my hardened member, letting her know I wanted her.
“Someone is pleased to see me” She chuckled, her green eyes peering up at me and snaking her arms up my chest and around my neck.
I bent my head and nuzzled her neck, nipping at the mark I left there. It was uncommon for a bear to mark their mate with a bite, but I needed to and I knew she could handle it. She moaned when I licked the mark of the two little paws. We were both surprised the next day to see it had formed into a marking instead of just a bite mark.
Every time I touched the mark I left on her neck, whether it be with a kiss or my fingers, the sparks between us flew and her arousal would always be heightened much more than touching her anywhere else. It was her trigger and I could anything I wanted with just a simple touch.
I pulled my hand up and palmed her breast, still nipping and sucking her neck and she moaned louder. “I can smell how much you want me little wolf” I teased, “If I put my hands in your pants, I bet you are very, very wet just for me.”
“I am, my King, but that will have to wait for a bit.” Now she was teasing me, I detected the mischief in her voice.
I drew back, which elicited a groan from Lamia, “But, I thought now everything was over and we defeated the bad guys, that we could start making some Cubs?” I whined like a child but in a fun and light hearted way.
She giggled “You mean pups?” her green eyes implored.
“Babies, I don’t care if they come out with no spirit animal, I want to see your belly swell with my babies.” I said with determination, yes I wanted to fuck her until my seed was planted deep in her and she swelled with my cubs, and I would happily fuck her as many times as needed until she became pregnant.
“We already have.”
“Already have what?” I mumbled while administering kisses over her neck and shoulder.
“Made babies.”
It took a minute, before the words sunk in, “Are you serious? When? I’m going to be a daddy?” The surprised excitement had me reeling back to look in her eyes, to make sure she wasn't fucking with me.
Arcas’ was going nuts with happiness, puffing his chest with pride. “Is that why you smell so much sweeter than your usual scent, why you have also looked so tired?”
“Probably, now come here daddy and let’s re-enact how we made babies.” She didn’t need to tell me twice.
“Shit, our moms are going to be so happy! Lamia, you have no idea how ecstatic I am. You have made me the happiest man in the realm… Sorry Arcas said ‘happiest shifter in the realm’”
I stooped down and began kissing her, the huge cheesy smile not leaving my face anytime soon.
I peeled her clothes from her body and let my hands wander over her soft olive skin, my tongue probing her sweet-tasting mouth. I pushed her backwards on to the bed, falling over the top of her.
My assault on her body, not stopping, as my lips left hers and trailed down her jaw and neck. Nipping at her creamy texture, and then gently taking one of her hardened nipples into my mouth when I reached the perfect and full mound. I gently nipped, not knowing if they were sore.
Her stimulating moans only egged me on. I reached her belly and kissed it, my hands resting on her hips. I smiled and looked up at her through my eyelashes. “Our cub is in there,” I smiled and kissed her flat stomach again.
“Mathias… please” She begged, lifting her hips. I knew what she needed. Me. In any way, she could get me. And I would give her all of me, gladly.
The first time, I took her gently and slowly, watching her squirm with pleasure, her face like an angel as her climax built and her whimpers of ecstasy sounded like the song of the sirens.
The second time, I took her hard, driving into her with force, and my beast laying his claim on her as she cried out my name over and over again. Orgasm after orgasm ripped through her, as my cock plowed her pussy roughly. She liked it a little rough, her pants and pleas, telling me harder, told me so. I found my release emptying deep inside her with a loud growl.
“Mine” I told her as my cock twitched and swelled inside her, the spurt spraying her swollen walls.
The third time, my little wolf took me.
Riding me hard, this time it was me grunting and panting as she lifted her hips slowly then slammed back down my cock, filling herself greedily. I held on to her hips for dear life as she rode me like a rodeo queen.
“Fuck baby,” I grunted, as I watched her head tip back, knowing she was close. I began to thrust my hips upwards. “Fuck, you feel so good. You like being filled with my big cock, baby?”
“Oh my goddess, yes King!” She screamed, falling forward and placing her hands on my chest, her movements becoming erratic.
I took over and thrust hard, holding her hips. “Your close, little wolf, your pussy is squeezing my cock, so fucking tight.” I groaned.
I moved one hand, placing it on her pelvis and used my thumb to rub her swollen clit. She gasped and began to moan louder. I drove into her harder, I was so close.
“Mathias!” She cried out as she exploded around me. Her eyes rolling to the back of her head and I had to stop rubbing her bud, to hold on to her, two more powerful thrusts up into her soaked pussy and I was growling out her name, coming harder than the last two times.
She collapsed over me, her head falling in the crook of my neck and a light giggle left her. Her tiny frame shook as the giggle turned into a full-on laugh.
“What’s so funny?” I asked, smiling as I was amused by her behavior.
“We were so loud, I’m sure the whole village heard us.”
“I don’t give a shit if the moon goddess herself heard us. Now everyone knows how a King pleasures his Queen.” With a serious tone and expression, I told her.
“I love you Mathias.” She cooed.
“And I love you my little wolf.” My arms wrapped around her and she lifted her head pecking my lips. I was enamored by this girl.
*****
Two days later, we had left the kingdom of Riocht and were on our way back to MacTire. We were currently driving down the highway. Lamia was in the back seat and I sat up front with Hunji Driving.
Lamia had her headphones in and I could hear the beat of a song playing as she taped her fingers to it. Hunji and I had kept up a light conversation for the past few hours. I had tried getting to know him better, but there were questions he skirted around that I could tell made him feel uncomfortable.
I trusted Hunji, I didn’t get the feeling he was hiding anything, but I noticed he would not divulge anything from his past, prior to moving to this continent. I had seen the scars, the tell-tale signs of a mate's betrayal. And I sympathized with him, thinking of Annalise. Thankfully, Annalise and I hadn't bonded.
Hunji's scars told me he and his mate had completed the bond and she still betrayed him.
Although I had never marked Annalise, I didn’t bare the same scars. I felt her cheating, but nothing like what a marked shifter would have gone through. Two days ago, I felt a tug on my heart and a nasty taste in my mouth when I was talking with Lucien, then I felt Lamia’s discomfort through the bond.
I knew Kellen had kissed her. But the tug only lasted a second and I believed the kiss was just a good bye. So I didn’t bring it up, there was no need to. I knew how much she loved me and I was confident in us, so much so that I was OK with her two best friends still being in love with her. As long as they knew, she was mine and I was hers.
I couldn’t wait to tell everyone Lamia was carrying my Cub. I wanted to shout it from the top of the highest mountain. We were waiting until we got back to MacTire before we told anyone, but the news was burning a hole in my brain and my tongue was dripping with wanting to spill everything.
I even wanted to tell Hunji, and the whole car ride I had to bite my cheek, so I didn’t spill the beans.
