The White Wolf Chapter 162: Take it

Caspian rattled the ice in his drink watching it as he reclined in a chair next to the fire with arms draped on either side. 

Alpha Dennis had not joined them feigning some excuse. The chatter around the room rambled on as males tried to best each other. The sound of pool balls could be heard as the players made their shots. The rowdier the males got the more they drank. 

Dristan walked over to the king in an uncharacteristically serious mood. “Your Majesty.” He bowed. 

“Prince Dristan, join me.” Caspian motioned to the seat across from him with his glass. 

The prince took the seat with his beta standing behind him. 

“I have come to inform you that my father has ordered me to return home.” 

“A shame your visit will be cut short. When do you leave?” Caspian said without a hint of sadness on his face or in his voice. 

“We will leave first thing in the morning,” Dristan replied taking a drink from his glass. 

“Is there a reason you’re leaving so soon?” Caspian said surprised at the early departure. 

“The borders are secure and Father does not wish us to delay.” There was no deception in his voice or on his face. 

“I wish you a safe journey. Of course, we will provide you with an escort. I’ll have that prepared right away.” Caspian looked around for Enzo and noticed that he was not present. Instead, he made eye contact with Gabe who overheard the conversation and whispered to a guard. 

“Thank you. That is very kind of you. I hope our stay here has been productive.”

“It has and our conversations interesting.”

“Please do not forget our conversations,” Dristan said with an imploring look. 

“I won’t,” Caspian said seriously. 

“If I may, I would like to retire your grace,” Dristan said beginning to rise from his seat. 

“There is one more thing I wish us to discuss,” Caspian said holding up a finger causing Dristan to stop immediately looking at him confused. “It won’t take long.”

“What is it?” The prince asked. 

“Your Beta’s sister. She will stay here.” Caspian said and then took a drink from his glass nonchalant like he had asked about the weather. 

Ruhn and Dristan’s mouths fell open as they scrambled for the words. “Your majesty.” Ruhn stumbled. 

“Your grace I’m afraid Cynthia is betrothed,” Dristan said visibly confused as he tried to compute what Caspian said. 

“But not to her mate.” He replied. 

“No. She does not have a mate.” Ruhn said as his body tensed. 

“She does and he is here,” Caspian said in explanation. 

“Who? Your Highness the Queen is your mate what would you want with my beta’s sister?” Dristan questioned. He could not wrap his mind around why Caspian would demand Cynthia who compared to the Queen was rather simple. 

Caspian looked at him as if he were moronic. “I want nothing. Her mate who is a member of my court does.”

“Who?” Ruhn questioned who this mystery person could be. 

“My gamma.”

“Your gamma?” Dristan and Ruhn said in unison as the wheels began to spin in their heads. 

“Your Highness,” Ruhn said as he tried to comprehend the situation seemingly putting it together faster than Dristan did. “Even so we have customs.”

“Your customs are barbaric and a dishonor to the goddess,” Caspian said with a bite letting them know he was not playing. 

“We cannot return without her as terms of the arrangement,” Ruhn said looking to the prince in worry. Caspian could see he was not concerned about his sister's happiness or safety but about the money they would receive from arranging her mating. 

“The terms of the arrangement were that your sister be mated in exchange for your father's debts be paid off. Am I wrong?” Caspian looked at both of them daring them to correct him. 

“I would not phrase it quite like that.” Dristan struggled to find words hiding behind his drink as Caspian looked at Ruhn. 

“The crown will pay her dowry. Whatever amount of money was to be given we will give.” The fire crackled as Caspian declared what was going to happen. 

“In exchange for her staying here?” Ruhn questioned. 

“This will not go over well,” Dristan said aloud. 

“Cynthia will be happy staying with her mate. Your family will be happy with their debt paid. The only person who not be is the one you sold her to.”

Dristan looked deep in thought. “Very well. We agree.”

“Your Highness I need to consult with my father.” Ruhn protested. 

“Perhaps you should be more concerned with keeping your father from squandering your family fortune than who she sells your sister to.” Caspian snapped at the beta. It made him angry at how ungrateful he was being. 

The beta stepped back away from the king. 

“She stays,” Dristan said in agreement seeing the logic in Caspian’s argument combined with his lack of caring of who Cynthia was mated to. 

Ruhn looked as if he had more to say but another word could bring him Caspian’s wrath. 

“My bets will have a check for you before you leave in the morning. Be sure to tell him the agreed-upon amount.” Caspian said motioning to Gabe. 

Dristan seemed at more at ease than Ruhn who could not fathom the turn of events. 

Dristan rose to his feet. “I bid you a goodnight. Please give my regards to the Queen. She has been a lovely hostess.”

Caspian nodded. Dristan and Ruhn gave a bow before retiring for the evening. 

It was not long after that Caspian retired himself. When he returned to his chambers Alexia was there and dressed for bed. He could feel her mood was dark. 

She lay in bed reading a book. Caspian changed and came to lie in bed next to her. “My love, what is wrong?”

Alexia slammed the book close and turned to him. “I’m sick of little Harlot being here. I want her gone!”

Caspian flinched. She was the only person who could make him do that. She started at him anger in her eyes. Before Caspian knew what was happening she was on top of him with her lips crushing his. 

Regaining awareness Caspian tried to sit up as she straddled him but her hands forced him back to the bed as she broke the kiss. 

Quickly she reached under her nightgown and tore her underwear off before pulling down her mate's pants. She grabbed his hard member and aligned him at her entrance before sitting g down. 

There was pain as her body was not ready for the penetration but she needed it. She did waste time as she brought herself up and then back down on him. 

Soon his shaft became slick with her. Caspian watched as she took her pleasure grinding herself against him. He touched her in places that drove her mad. 

Soon her first release came. It was not enough. She wanted more. Again and again, she brought herself to her climax on him. Even when Caspian could not hold back and spilled into her she kept going till her body gave out. 

Caspian gathered her into his arms and together they drifted off to sleep.
