The Delta's Daughter Chapter 82

Mathias

Fuck.

I was embarrassed and ashamed that she could still smell the scent of mine and Tobias’ partying from almost a week ago. But then I keep forgetting she is no ordinary wolf. Her nose was as good as mine, maybe even better. Of course, she would be able to scent smells from days ago.

I sent Lamia into my room to clean up while I used the other guest bathroom. Oh how I wanted to be in that shower with her, but if I was, we would never make it to dinner and I had reserved my private table for all of us.

Ginny had come back with clothes for her and while she was getting dressed, I stepped into my closet and put on a dark blue navy pinned stripped suit. One of my favorites, and a crisp white shirt, forgoing a tie and leaving the top two buttons undone. Just as I was putting on my shoes, the bathroom door opened and it was a good job I was sitting down.

The vision before me was wearing a sleeveless silver dress that hung down to her ankles, with a split up one-side. The V dipping down to give me a view of her full breasts and the straps crisscrossing at the back, left little to the imagination. The dress hugged every single one of her luscious curves and I felt my dick strain tight against the fabric of my pants. She looked every bit like the Queen she is.

“Maybe we should skip dinner and just stay in” I suggested, while my eyes swept over her tantalizing and inviting body.

“Or we could go eat. Besides, wouldn’t this be our first date handsome?” She purred.

“Some date with my brothers and your father there” Shaking my head and smirking.

“Brothers? They are both your brothers?” her eyes wide, wondering how she didn’t see it.

“No. Xander is my half brother, the same mother. Tobias is my best friend but I call him brother.”

I stood up and crossed the room, grabbing her hips and pulling her to me so she could feel how aroused she made me. One hand had a tight grip on her hip, the other lifted and wove beneath her flowing streaked hair to grasp the nape of her neck. My eyes wandered over her free of make-up face. Flawless. That’s what she was. Absolute perfection. This woman owned my heart, body and mind.

“I want you to think about what it is I’m going to do to you when we come back up here. Every dirty little thought you can think of it's going to happen, little wolf. And I can’t promise it will be gentle this time.” The pleasurable jolts of electricity hummed through my body and I knew it was affecting her, as her body heated from my touch and pressed into mine a shiver pulsed through her.

“Mathias,” She moaned and I pressed my lips to hers, pouring all my desires and promises into it. She parted her lips for more and, like a tease, I broke from the embrace.

“You look beautiful, my queen.” I said, stepping back and admiring her again. “Now, let’s go before I make a meal out of you.” I would have her all to myself all night long; I could wait a couple of hours.

She sighed but let me grab her hand and lead her out of the penthouse and downstairs to the restaurant where Xander, Tobias and her father were already seated and waiting for us.

“Dear gods Mat!” Tobias groaned, looking Lamia up and down with lusty eyes. I gave a low warning growl and he quickly averted his gaze. “Cover her up man!” he groaned.

“I will take that as a compliment, thank you Toby” she smiled at him while placing a reassuring hand on my bicep.

I took a quick look at Xander, who seemed impervious to her beauty and powerful aura, unlike every other male in the place whose mouths were hanging open and panting, their gazes lusting after her curves. This time a louder growl sounded from me and the warning was heard as the males averted their eyes. This was going to be a long, painful dinner.

“I spoke to your mother this evening Lamia,” her father piped up, breaking the awkward silence “She is looking forward to seeing you. Also, Kellen wants you to call him, he said he can’t connect to you through the bond, something about being out of range? Is that even possible with you two?” He chuckled at the end, but all I saw was red.

“What fucking bond?” I snapped, looking from Lamia to the Delta.

“Oh don’t get your panties in a twist big guy. Kellen is the one I told you about, the King's son.” She smiled sweetly and then leaned in to whisper in my ear, but everyone at the table heard her. “Do I need to remind you that I can smell what you and Tobias did only three days ago?”

Fuck! Her senses were that good she even pin pointed how many days ago it was. I saw Tobias stiffen from the corner of my eye the same way I became rigged too.

“What happened 3 days ago, Mat?” Xander asked.

“Absolutely nothing.” Tobias replied for me. Lamia’s father was giving me a death glare.

Of course, there was no way the delta could ever defeat me. I would laugh if he even threatened it. He would be dead before he could even step close. What had me nervous was that he was Lamia’s father and those two were as thick as thieves, his approval mattered because it mattered to her. And she mattered to me.

Luckily, nothing else was said about it and the conversation turned to our plans and who was going where and timeframes. Soon enough, I pulled my little wolf from her chair. I couldn’t wait any longer, she had been sitting there in that sexy as fuck dress for the past two hours, tempting me all night and Arcas wanted his mate all to himself and so did I.

We said goodnight, her hugging her father tightly. “I will see you soon daddy, Stay safe.” She then turned to Tobias “You keep him safe, or I swear to the gods, if you don’t die protecting him, then you will die, by my hand.” She worded it in a joking fashion but you couldn’t miss the truth of her threat behind her eyes as the green glinted and flashed her wolf.

As soon as we were in my private elevator and the doors closed, I pounced on her like a hungry bear. I was ready for dessert. “You are such a tease in that dress” I growled as I lifted her against the elevator mirror. Her legs wrapped around me and her dress hiked up.

I captured her lips in a heated and desperate kiss. The warmth of her pussy ground against my erection, which was bursting to be let free and sink into her. My hand went between us so I could feel her sex and I expected to feel the fabric of her panties, but there was nothing there.

My cock strained harder and it sent Arcas into a lustful frenzy.

“Little wolf, do you mean to tell me you were wearing nothing underneath your dress the whole time?” my teeth clenched at the thought and I was ready to shred my slacks and pound into her right here.

The elevator dinged and as soon as the door opened, Lamia pushed me off her and ran for the door, laughing as she flew towards and down the hallway.

I stalked out of the elevator after my little temptress. She wasn’t going far, so I took my time, enjoying the game she had begun.

Running from me meant she was going to get it hard until she was begging for me to stop. The corner of my lips curled into an evil grin when I thought of the all the little things I was going to do to my little wolf queen.

I suddenly halted when I saw Lamia standing still, a knife to her throat and an arm around her chest. My beast reared up ready to kill, my heart was beating so hard.

 At the sight of my mate in a compromising position, I let out a growl, my skin burning with heat, my blood was boiling that hot inside me. The male groped her, his hand massaging her and the knife pressed tightly to her throat. She stood stiff, not moving a muscle.

I took a brief second to examine the situation, even though every other instinct inside of me and Arcas’ told me to kill, and believe me, I wanted to rip this fucker apart. But my logic kicked in, knowing that Lamia is no weak wolf.

Her eyes were dilated, her skin pale, and her wolf wasn’t present. She shifted her eyes three times. I sniffed the air. There was no scent. The man holding her had hidden his scent somehow. She shifted her eyes again. There was someone else here.

Her legs went weak and she gasped, opening her mouth. Falling out of the man’s shadow. That’s when I saw the silver dust glisten on her tongue and around her nose. Silver nitrate dust. She must have walked right into it.

I reared forward, she had been holding her breath trying not to breathe it in, I was going to rip this man and whoever the fuck else was in my home to shreds! No one threatens what’s mine!

‘Kill them all’ Arcas encouraged, pushing to the forefront. His possessiveness bringing out the beast in both of us, his need to protect and love, is what brought out the killer in us. My claws began to pierce through my skin and my teeth tingled, and my skin itched with anticipation of shifting.

“Stop!” The command was final and powerful, the voice held authority.

An Alpha. Apparently a very powerful one, almost as powerful as me. I halted in my tracks, not because he said so, but because this man was here for a reason. And his aura was too close to mine.

“Let her go now! And I promise I will make your death painless.” I snarled at the man holding Lamia and at the voice of the man who stepped forward, from the shadows of a bedroom.

“Is that anyway to greet your father Mathias? Tsk tsk” The man lifted his head as he mocked me. I was staring at an older version of myself. I first noticed his silver eyes as his beast showed himself, flashing bright silver. The man looked like he was in his mid forty’s.

“Who are you? Because you certainly are NOT my father!” The venom dripping from my tongue. My father is dead, died in my mother’s arms. This man had a scar on his chin that pulled down towards his neck, but he hid it under the neatly styled scruff on his face.

He moved around the shifter holding Lamia without missing a step, like he fucking owned the place. “I only want to speak with you son… and then I will leave and you will still have time to save your pretty girl here. “ He glanced towards Lamia with a smirk. “I thought the other girl who was in your room was a looker but this girl, this little wolf, now she is a prize.” He walked to the main room and took a seat in one of the leather chairs and lent back, gesturing for me to sit down.

My eyebrows knotted. Other girl? What other girl? I didn’t smell another scent in here. In fact, I could only pick up mine and Lamia's.

I obliged. I knew there was still time for Lamia; I also knew she did not feel the effects of silver like regular wolves, she had a higher tolerance and her wolf healed her fast, being able to resist the poison. Like Lycans. And to say I wasn’t curious and wanted some answers would be a lie.

I am not one to wait for answers and I am not a man who lets someone else rule the room.

Arcas was unusually quiet, him not fighting my actions at this time were strangely odd. By no means was I calm, but both man and beast were restrained for the moment.

“Who are you?” I was curt. To the point.

“Orion, your father, Mathias.” He spoke with an even tone.

“You are not my father. He died.” My teeth grinding together in annoyance at the imposter in front of me. He looked just like him from the pictures my mother showed me, but this man was not him. The eyes were different, colder. Like mine. And my father would be older than him; this man looked in his forty’s, not fifty, pushing sixty.

“I am Argus’ brother, the man your mother calls your father. I thought she would have eventually told you the truth.” A snarl lifting his lips in distaste and a quick flash of his eyes, before quickly masking it under a bored-looking expression.

“Tell me what you came to say. Then leave.” I said, but thought, like fuck, I would let them get out of here alive!

“I see you got your impatience from me.” He chuckled. “Tell me first, what is your beast’s name?” He tipped his head and regarded me.

I furrowed my brows and narrowed my eyes. Why was that important? Without skipping a beat, I answered “Eyota.” I lied. Instead, giving him Tobias’ beast’s name. “Does that mean something?”

A long pause stilled the air as he looked me dead in the eye. Probably trying to figure if I was lying or not. After a few beats, he cracked a smile and I saw the gold tooth flash where his canine would usually extend from. “No, I was just curious what sprit the goddess would bestow upon you.” He was lying. He was hiding it well but the signs were still there.

“Now I’m going to tell you a story son,” I growled at his use of that word. “And you will sit and listen, or your dear brother Finnegan, over there,” he nodded his head to where the man was still standing with Lamia. “Will kill her, if you get out of line he will kill her.” A triumphant look fell across his face when he saw the agony I couldn’t hide at the sight of my mate who was slipping towards dangerous pretty fast. A small trickle of blood came from her nose and her skin was as pale as the silver of her dress.

Brother? What the fuck is this guy talking about?

 ‘Listen.’ Arcas spoke ‘I think you need to hear this. He is not lying.’

“Fine.” I agreed reluctantly.

“You see, son, the night you were conceived, I had been with a witch. A beautiful woman, the palest shade of blond I have ever seen and the most beautiful violet eyes, a whore of a woman, but still the most beautiful creature I have seen” he said, winking at me. “There was only one other that was more beautiful. With her raven hair and dark eyes.” I saw a twinkle in his eye as he reminisced over the two women.

“Amitola Hiamovi” He spoke my mother’s name. I should have been shocked, but I can’t say that it surprised me. I just wanted him to get on with it so I could kill them and get to Lamia, who was looking weaker. The man was still holding the blade to her skin and his other arm still holding her chest.

His movements became jerky in excitement as Orion carried on “She, your mother, was the most beautiful she-bear in the entire realm. And I was desperate to make her mine. Until my brother came home and it turned out they were fated mates.” His face dropped. “Imagine my disappointment. Did she tell you we were twins?” He asked me.

Well, that makes sense, to a point, but still, how did he look so much younger?

“Well, as I was saying. I was with a witch, one of the last true witches alive, to be exact. And I asked her to make me some herbs. So I could hide my scent, then I asked her for one that would render my brother useless. She obliged and the cost was my seed.

So, after I fucked her, I went to see my dear brother at the Clan house. Slipped some herbs into his drink and he was knocked out cold within 10 minutes. And that’s when I used the scent masking herbs. To visit your mother. My beast was desperate to have her, driving me insane with want. I had no idea she would be in heat.” He bit his hand trying to hide the wicked smile on his face. But failing miserably.

“You raped her!” I growled.

“On the contrary. She welcomed me with open arms, son. She was in heat and I had your father's scent all over me. By the time she realized I wasn’t her beloved Argus. It was too late. I had your mother for hours, well into the morning until her heat died down. Then I left before the herbs wore off my brother.” He stood up from the leather chair and walked over to his Hench-man and Lamia.

“That was the night you were conceived. By me. It is also the night Finnegan here, was conceived.” He patted the man on the shoulder. “Meet your brother Mathias.”

The man named Finnegan didn’t say a word, but he did lift his head and slid his hood back. I breathed a little easier because that move had him removing the knife from Lamia’s throat.

His hair was almost white and his eyes were a purple hue. His skin was nowhere close to as dark as mine. He was tall and large, his physique comparable to Tobias’. This was my brother? A complete contrast to my dark features and tanned skin.

Orion nodded to Finnegan before looking back at me.

“There is a war coming, Mathias. We are family. You will need to pick a side.” There was an underlay of warning in his tone.

"It wont be yours" I growled out, ready to attack.

Suddenly, Finnegan caught me off guard and threw Lamia at me so fast I stumbled when catching her. They soundlessly scampered from the hallway to a set of stairs that led to a private roof. I laid Lamia down gently and pounded after them. By the time I got to the roof, they were gone.

Poof! Just like that! It took me a moment before I reached out to Tobias and Xander. While running back down to Lamia,

‘Get the fuck up here now!” I roared through the mind link “I just had a very unexpected guest!”
