The Delta's Daughter Chapter 206

3 Weeks Later

KELLEN

“Ready” I asked Tala

“Yeah,” She squeaked excitedly bouncing on her feet, hardly containing her excitement.

We had been out on runs together several times over the last three weeks, but for some reason, today she was overly excited.

Lamia, King, Tobias, and the babies had left a week and a half ago, permanently moving to Riocht. Unfortunately, that meant Aunt Vivian went with her, and Uncle Marcus was going to follow behind them once he had everything organized here. I was going to miss them. The palace would seem even emptier now.

I had spoken to Tawny. I didn’t like her position, but she was tough and she knew what she was doing. She could handle herself, when she needed me I would be there for her, It satisfied me to hear she was planning on heading to Riocht in the next coming days to meet the kids. It warmed my heart knowing Lamia and Tawny had formed an unbreakable friendship, that no matter what they would always have each other, thinking of them had me thinking of the relationship that had me smiling.

Hunji's situation was a little concerning. He had gone dark and was blocking all our attempts to mind-link him. We were getting to the point where we were ready to go back to the other continent to find him. Lamia had more faith in him though and told us to wait it out. I didn't like it, but she knew him the best and knew he would come home. For now, she wasn't overly concerned but still checked in to see if we had heard from him. The last time she had spoken to him was a week and a half ago after she had left. Supposedly he had found Finn's sister.

Tala and Jonda had found common ground after assisting with Lamia’s birth, immediately bonding. Now the two are inseparable and Mike and I never have to wonder where the other is, only what they are up to.

The energy pouring off of Tala right now was almost too much, waves of her elated enthusiasm were rolling off her, and I couldn’t help but laugh at how her body twitched with the urge to shift and run.

We had reached the edge of the forest just outside the back end of the palace, I started stripping my clothes off once we were in far enough, and, faster than I could get my shorts off Tala had peeled her dress off and discarded it over her shoulder. She had already shifted into her magnificent red wolf before I had even gotten both legs free.

“Someone is super excited!” I said watching her wolf Mora hop around on all fours, waiting for me to shift.

I shifted into Conri and approached her, rubbing my muzzle against her soft fur. I swear her wolf purred just like a cat at the gesture. She began yipping at me, waiting for me to take off. I told Tala I was taking her to the lake today. We hadn’t been there and if she knew where it was I was sure she would have been halfway there by already she was that eager.

Conri’s tail wagged and he licked her snout and then barked at her, turning to run towards our destination. Mora was a sleek and fast wolf, so I didn’t need to slow down too much for her, she had no problem keeping up with my larger wolf.

Our wolves frolicked and played along the way giving each other loving gentle nips, sometimes tackling one or the other. It was the beginning of August so it was still pretty hot out during the day and cooler in the evening like today. A perfect evening for a run.

We reached the lake and usually, I would shift back before jumping in it, but my mate had other ideas. Mora stopped for a second just to take in the scenery before running full force towards the water, leaping high into the air and diving into the water. She was the only wolf I knew that would willingly submerge her whole body and head under water.

Conri growled when she didn’t come up for a few minutes and was ready to go save his mate when Mora’s furry red head bobbed up over the surface and then dived back down emerging this time in her skin form.

“The water is wonderful!” Tala shouted out to me.

I shifted back into my skin form and took a running jump into the water right near her and popped up behind her. Grabbing her arms and pulling her to me.

“Come on, I want to show you something,” I gestured with my head and started swimming towards the far bank where there was a rocky cliff. “Take a deep breath and follow me”

I dove below the surface and swam under the rocks, taking a quick glance behind me to make sure Tala was there. I swear if she wasn’t a wolf, she was a mermaid in a previous life. She had never swam, she had never even seen the ocean or a lake before. There was a large pond in one of their gardens, only being able to wade in it, that was all she had until she came here. She was a natural swimmer; even her wolf naturally took to the water and could probably outswim one of our divers amongst the elite warriors. Tala just had a natural relationship with water. I’m sure it had something to do with being Teal’s daughter; the ocean was in her blood.

A minute later, we were able to surface on the other side of the rock into a small subterranean lake. A hidden cave in the cliff. There were not many people who knew about this place but Lamia, Mike, and I would come here often. As we got older we would actually camp here in the cavern, mostly during the summer. The water was high enough to cover the entrance and you only had to dive down a few feet, coming up on the other side into a cavern with a pebbled shore.

The lake itself was big, stretching for hundreds of miles and then splitting off. The idea of being able to give her this moment, and knowing she would cherish it forever, filled my heart to the brim. All this was new to Tala, and seeing her face light up like is right now, was a special moment shared just with me. This moment was ours. The mate bond allowed me to experience how she was feeling and right now I could see the cave see through her eyes as if it was the first time finding a place that feels magical.

Natural light shone in from somewhere, just enough to be able to see, that light casting across the pool of water and reflecting on the cavern's ceiling. I never realized how romantic this setting was until now.

Tala stepped back to me, gently turning, her eyes still wandering over the beauty of the cave, taking everything in until they landed on me, locking in place with mine “This is beautiful Kellen, it’s the most beautiful place I have ever seen!”

“I wanted to share it with you and, I am so glad I did, you make me happy when your eyes light up with excitement, and your smile... it makes my heart beat that little bit faster.” I swallowed and shifted my eyes from hers for a few seconds and then brought them back to her again, meeting piercing cerulean eyes, my heart thumped harder in my chest “I love you Tala and I want to make you happy…”

“Shhh,” Tala put her finger on my lip “Did Conri tell you”

I tried to connect with my wolf, but he shut me out. Whatever it was he knew, he wasn’t going to tell me. I mentally cursed Conri. I could feel my face screwing up into a scowl. Frustrated that my wolf was withholding information from me; it was one of my pet peeves.

Tala was standing there with her hands on her hips and a finger on my lips. If she realized she was naked, she didn’t show it or just didn’t care. Of course, my eyes scanned down her body as soon as I focused on the sight of her. And something else started taking note too, my cock hardened at the vision of beauty before us. Her long red hair bright in the dim glow of the light, hanging over her shoulders and flowing over her breasts, it was driving me crazy. The way the pool reflection shimmered on her ivory skin, patterns danced over across her and she looked like a textbook definition of a mermaid.

Bewitchingly beautiful. My hands reached out for her, full of lust and want, I wanted to hear her moans echo through the cavern when I made love to her.

“Mora confirmed it today” Tala declared making me freeze and raise an eyebrow at her statement. I was missing something.

I halted in my tracks not getting it. What was that supposed to mean her declaration made me pause from confusion but by the look on her face, I might as well have just slapped Tala. All the romantic vibes and lustful wanting; died at the moment right there. The mood was ruined.

“What did Mora confirm today” There was so much hesitation in that one sentence, I didn’t know if I was asking the right question or if I was digging a deeper hole to put myself in. Because I was definitely in the dog house, I just didn’t know why.

*****

TALA

It’s as if we had swum into a whole other world, one made out of fantasy, where pirates and fairies and mermaids existed. It was the most beautiful place I had ever seen, I couldn’t smile any wider I was so entranced with the cavern. The only thing that would have made it better was if there was a chest of treasures like the adventure books I loved to read.

The pool of water we swam up from was surrounded by rocks except for the far end, where the water had created a pebbled and sandy mixed shore over the years, and you could walk up and out the water to sit on it.

Earlier today, minutes before we went out for our run, Mora had confirmed that we were with pup. Pregnant, just like we had thought. I was so excited I had been bursting at the seams from the moment she told me, taking the decision to wait until we got to the lake to tell him. Then, Kellen, had me follow him into this cave and it couldn’t have been the most perfect place to tell him.

I could hear Kellen talking next to me, I wasn’t really listening though. I was trying to figure out the best way to deliver the news, so I decided to just rip the band-aid off. I lifted my hand and pressed a finger to his lip “… and I want to make you happy” I cut him off.

“Shh,” I hushed him “Did Conri tell you” I was thinking maybe Conri had already discovered the news, maybe my scent had already changed. “Mora confirmed it today.” I guess I could have said it in a more romantic and softer way, than just blurting it out. I was really that excited that I just had to get it out then and there.

Kellen froze his face morphing into one of confusion. His blue eyes darted over my face in a searching way like my eyes held the answer. I held in the sigh I desperately wanted to let out at him. He was being completely dense so I put my other hand on my hip, with my finger still on his lips as I waited for the fleeting panic in his eyes to pass and for him to work it out.

“What did Mora confirm today” Holly moons, he was killing me! I had to bite back a laugh, rolling my lips, just staring at him, waiting for the coin to drop. The romantic mood absolutely ruined. I wasn’t sure if there was any way to get it back after this. I should have waited, or chosen my words better.

I was ready to open my mouth and tell him ‘I’m with pup!’ when finally, the realization set in his eyes, and he stooped down to catch my line of sight making sure he could see my eyes, “Yeah” he asked suddenly a little breathless.

I dropped my finger, letting it slide down his chin to his chest. “Tala, are we having a pup” He bit his bottom lip and it made me swoon wanting to taste him. I nodded, eyes still on that simple action.

“Tala… Yeah” He asked again, getting in my line of sight again his knees bending, not quite believing it and brimming with excitement that threatened to explode. His eyes slightly glowing with his wolf and his lips hinting towards a smile “We're pregnant, I’m going to be a dad”

“Yeah,” I nodded my head, bobbing it from side to side with a slow up-turn of the lips. “Mora confirmed it today.”

“You just made me the happiest man in the realm!” He swept me up out of the water by my hips securely holding them and lifting me high, spinning around, the water splashing around his calves. “Fuck! I’m going to be a dad. Do you have any idea how happy I am”

“I could take a wild guess,” I giggled, lowering me until I could wrap my legs around his waist my face level with his.

“I love you so much... thank you, for being mine.” His hot breath against my lips made my body shudder and my tummy flutter, bringing those pleasurable sparks to life and dancing over my skin.

“I’m yours, my King, always yours” I rasped with a desirous voice. Our close proximity and his enthusiasm turned me on, making my body thrum with pleasure and wanting, Kellen’s cock growing rock hard under me, brushing against my ass.

I wiggled against his stiff manhood, teasing him, tempting him, because I wanted him. I found myself being pinned against the smooth surface of a rock; Kellen unlocked my legs from his waist and lifted me a little higher, then slid his body between my legs, placing my legs over his arms and spreading me wide open, until his head was between my thighs.

He dove right in licking my slit to my swollen clit and sucking on it, I cried out in ecstasy and rolled my head against the rock. His tongue swirled and his lips sucked, driving me insane and building up heat in my core. I felt him push a finger inside me and my pleasure echoed around the cavern, giving me a few pumps before adding a second.

I moved my hips wanting to grind my pussy against him, the feel of his freshly shaven face against my skin was sinfully erotic and I cried out for more “Kellen, don’t stop” I pleaded.

I was on the brink of exploding when he stopped and removed his fingers. The frustration immediately built at not being able to reach my release. Then his cock was brushing up against my entrance, he lowered me back down to the floor carefully. “Turn around and put your hands on the rock,” The previous vexation melted away and I obliged. The magnetic pull of our bodies wanting us to join together winning.

I turned around and place my hands on the smooth rock face and moaned sticking my ass up in the air as an invitation. “Open your legs wider Tala.” The dominance of his order drove my wolf wild and my pussy wetter; I was weeping for him.

Then the thick end of his cock was nudging its way through my lower lips to my pulsing entrance and the slow burn of a needful moan slipped passed my lips when Kellen began to fill me up, the moan lasting until he was seated deep inside me. I could feel his heaving breaths and hear them in my ear as he leaned over me placing his hands on the rock face just above mine. I was still holding my breath, scared that if I let it out, the intense pleasure I was feeling would go with it.

“Breath baby,” He soothed in my ear. No sooner had I let go of that breath - Kellen began moving slowly in and out of me. “You are fucking perfect,” He groaned “You make me so happy.” His long length stroked me with each movement in and out, my walls fluttering around his cock. Without warning my body trembled and an orgasm ripped through me. The position and angle were deeper, more filling and it wasn’t taking much for me to go off.

“You like that baby” his husky voice vibrated by my ear sending ripples of pleasure through my body.

“Yes, my King… Harder my King!” I shamelessly begged and received.

Kellen’s pace changed, pumping into me faster and harder. He moved his hands from the wall, one at a time, the first going to my hip to hold me steady, the second snaking around the front, between my legs finding and pressing on my clit, circling it. The sensation of him pumping in and out of me and his finger flicking that oh-so-sensitive bundle of nerves had me screaming out his name as I flew over the cliff and clamped my pussy’s walls around him.

“Stay with me little flame, were done yet.” My legs shaking as I came down from the high, unable to catch my breath when Kellen’s tempo changed again and his cock began to ravish my pussy relentlessly.

His pounding reached new depths and the burning heat began to build again, I couldn’t control the noises of pleasure that left my tongue. Kellen thrust hard and fast, his hands holding me up as I lost traction with my own and they began to slide down. Still, he thrust hard a few more times until I was seeing stars and both pairs of my lips were quivering and my orgasm flooded around his cock. No sooner had I reached my peak, Kellen’s cock swelled and he stilled his thrusting, his hot seed spilling into me.

“Tala,” my name, but a whisper on his lips, pulling me up against his chest and holding me tight until we both caught our breaths. Leaving kisses on the exposed skin he could reach.

I had found my happily ever after. The fairytale I never thought I would have. Kellen turned my nightmares into my fantasy. He set me free from the moment I laid eyes on him in that arena.

My heart would forever belong to my Gladiator Wolf King.
