Liv
I sigh deeply, still trying to wrap my mind around their revelation. My father is an Elf, which makes me a hybrid. Hybrids are quite rare since the absolute majority of supernatural beings have mates of their own species. Well, the only exceptions are Fae and Elves; their magic has a common origin, possessing an angelic, light element. So, there are few cases of Fae and Elves being mates, like in Sienna's case. At least I think her mate is an elf, since I am surrounded by elves.
The b.astards had been covering their scent from me since I was little, so that I couldn't tell that they were Elves. I just knew that Astoria was an Elf because she hadn’t covered her scent completely. Sienna, Nema, and Astoria were the ones closest to me. They were in charge of teaching me how to be a lady. Well, they failed miserably. Who the Heck would appoint a Nympho like Nema to teach someone to behave like a lady? They aren't really smart.
But that was for my own benefit, since Nema became a close friend, and a hilarious one at that, especially because she is the opposite of Astoria, who can be defined as an anti-nympho. That elf-lady is such a prude! It’s good that she has Nema in her life as well, otherwise she might be even worse, if that is even possible. Everyone should be friends with a Nympho. They are a box of inappropriate s****l jokes. They make you feel less of a pervert in comparison to them, that's for sure.
On the other hand, being a hybrid means that I could also develop elf powers. I don't know much about that, though. I wasn't the most attentive student in the supernatural species classes. But I guess that I should have already developed some Elf mojo at this age. Maybe it works differently for hybrids. I need to ask Astoria about it. Before that, I needed to call Cali and share the news with her. She has been bugging me ever since we found out that I have a harem of mates. And, well, I am also itching to share everything with my best friend, as any girl would be. So, I called her.
“Cali?”
“Hey, Liv… How are you doing? I was worried about you after last night.”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine… You? I have hot news.”
“I am bored…. Hmmm, tell me, tell me! Hot news means that hot mates are involved, huh?” Cali replies excitedly. I can so imagine her jumping around like a crazy bubbly bunny.
I rolled my eyes. That chick needs to get some. Maybe I could give her one or two of my mates.
“I’ve finally seen my father. He made me take a blood oath! Can you believe it? Total bull.”
“What does he look like? What is he?” Cali asked, even more excited. At least someone was having some fun with this whole mess.
“Blood oath... duh.”
“Oh yeah, yeah.”
“I’ve also seen the idiotic Elf King. He is here! Don’t tell anything to the idiotic Wizard King.”
Cali chuckled. “It’s not as if I’ve ever talked to him. You know that they probably can hear you talking to me, right?”
“Cali, baby, you are even more paranoid than I am, I feel like I see mates everywhere.” I chuckled. “Anyways, stop watching too many stalker movies. Real people have lives and stuff to do besides ‘big brothering’ me. Besides, let them listen, I don’t even give half a shit.” I shrugged my shoulders.
“Wow, you’ve become even more of a rebel now that you know that you’ll be a queen.”
“I won’t be a queen.”
“How? That’s not possible.” Cali replies.
“I’ll find a way... I don’t want one mate, let alone three.”
“Why?” she asked. Cali knows that I am not like her. She has been excited about finding a mate since we were little. I never really cared about it. More than that, I’ve never really wanted one and I got three, so isn’t that ironic?
“I don’t want a mate to treat me poorly like my father treats my mom.”
“Oh,” Cali mutters.
Well, I had something in mind. A brilliant plan, or at least I hope so. I will seduce one of my so-called mates and cause him to sever the bond. As that Mama Schawn lady said, to not break the bond, we would have to do it all at the same time, so if I make one of them do the deed with me by himself, it is goodbye mate bonds. This must work with at least one of them.
Sighing, I said good bye Cali and hung up.

3rd Person's P.O.V.
Liv rings her bell and Cordy answers. “Cordy... can you make yourself useful for a change and ask Sienna, Nema, and Astoria to come here?”
Cordy sighs. “Yes princess,” he says through the bell link.
After a few minutes, the ladies arrived. Nema and Sienna gave Liv a bear hug and giggled excitedly, while Astoria only gave Liv a short hug.
“You’ll be a queen,” Sienna squealed happily, a huge smile on her face.
“Yayyy,” Liv replies sarcastically.
“You’re not happy?” Sienna’s face falls and she looks genuinely confused and surprised. She thought that Liv would be happy about finding her mate—or, well, her mates. Everyone longs and craves for their mate and is over the moon to find them, but apparently, it is different with Liv.
“Sienna I’ll have three! Three mates! I will have three guys annoying me! It’s not like ‘yeah! I won the magic-lottery!’. Three mates is even too much for a love triangle,” Liv replied, shaking her head.
“Yes... it sounds overwhelming,” the fairy agreed, flashing Liv a look of sympathy.
“But they are soooo hot.” Nema chimed in, excited. Of course, as a Nympho, she would focus on the physical part, and she had already imagined herself in Liv’s place entangled with the three hot males.
“You can have them!” Liv replied nonchalantly, arching her brow.
Nema chuckled. “I wish!” she muttered under her breath.
Astoria gave the Nympho a pointed look and shook her head.
“Anyway, happy birthday princess! And... since I heard that you'd seen your father today, I can reveal something to you. I’m your father’s sister and your aunt,” Astoria said.
“That’s good news!” Liv smiled, hugging Astoria. “That’s why you’re so beautiful!”
Astoria chuckled lightly. “In these three years, you’ve become even...”
“Better? Prettier? More brilliant? Sharper?” Liv teased, a playful smile on her face.
Astoria raised her brows and chuckled. “You are impossible.”
“You’re the only being in the galaxy who can make Miss Cranky laugh,” Nema said dramatically, placing a hand on her chest and chuckling.
“That’s my superpower! But seriously, aunty, you need to get some!” Liv laughed. Astoria frowned and smacked Liv’s butt lightly.
“Oh yeah, she does! For the good of all of us and our sanity!” Nema added, looking at Astoria.
“Why don't you take a lover, aunty?” Liv asked, still chuckling a bit.
Astoria sighed, angry. “I’ll kill you both.”
“Is that her kink?” Liv asked, making Nema laugh.
“Liv, you are terrible!” the fairy chuckled.
“That I am,” Liv replied with a proud smile.
“I’ve missed you so much, chick!” Nema sighed.
“I’ve missed you all. Even cranky virgin Aunty,” Liv answered. Sienna and Nema laughed. Astoria blushed in a deep shade of tomato-red and gave Liv a murderous look.
“I haven’t missed this.” Astoria muttered under her breath. “Can we send her back?” she asked, raising a brow.
“Wow, she made a j.o.k.e!” Liv exclaimed, mock-gasping.
“Who said it was a joke?” Astoria smiled mischievously, making the other three women laugh.
“Aunty, since I am a hybrid, I should have some Elf mojo, no?” Liv asked, wanting to know more about her elf nature, more about herself.
Astoria looked away, breathing deeply. “You should… but you are under some sort of blockage spell.”
“What? Why? Who blocked my powers… That is so fu—” Liv starts, but her aunt cuts her off.
“We didn't want anyone to know that you were a hybrid. We just wanted to protect you,” Astoria explained.
Liv sighed, frustration evident on her face. “The ‘I am protecting you’ excuse, always taking people's freedom and choices… Protect me from what exactly?”
“Liv, hybrids like you are rare,” Sienna says in her soft and sweet voice.
“Rare as in pretty much non-existent,” Nema adds, and Liv sighs. “You see, when beings of different species do it, normally the only result is mind-blowing orgasms and—” Nema starts.
“She means that normally they cannot procreate.” Sienna interrupted Nema, explaining it in non-nympho terms.
“Whatever… That does not explain why I am in danger,” Liv says.
Astoria sighed deeply, “I am sorry Liv, I can’t tell you more than that. Maybe Maximus can explain it to you.”
“Aunty, that is not gonna happen, even seeing his face was a once-in-a-lifetime event,” Liv replies, frustrated. Astoria sighed again.
“Anyway, can we unblock my powers? What powers will I have?” Liv asks.
“All elves can mind-link to each other, like Vamps and Wolves. They can also teleport like us fairies,” Sienna explains.
“Do they—we—have the glitter and pixie powder mojo too?” Liv asks, raising a single brow at her friends.
Sienna rolls her eyes in an untypical manner; the fairy is normally absolutely sweet. “That is not a thing Liv. Not for a fairy, nor an elf-godmother.”
“Besides that, we are powerful warriors and the most skilled archers. We can produce magic weapons and extract magic from stones.” Astoria explains, an undertone of pride in her voice.
“And they are also freaking hot in that angelic way… Especially your father. I could totally call him daddy and…” Nema adds with her naughty Nympho smile.
Liv casts Nema a disgusted look and snarls, “Please don’t be gross. I have a high tolerance for your s*x-madness, but a daddy kink for my dad is too far.”
Astoria asks with a frown, “Why do we even keep her around?”
“Because we love her,” Sienna says, making Astoria scowl even more.
“And to shake your boring virgin life up,” Nema adds with a smile and Astoria shakes her head in exasperation.
“Every elf also has a power unique to them which is said to come from the Goddess herself. The higher your rank, the more powerful that gift is,” Astoria added.
“You really didn't pay attention to our classes, Liv,” Sienna says, half scolding her and half smiling.
Liv shrugs, “I was too busy laughing my butt off Nema’s jokes and innuendos.”
“So glad I could help.” Nema smiled. Sienna and Astoria give her pointed looks. “What? If it wasn’t for me, she would have turned out to be like cranky-prudy here,” she says, motioning to Astoria. “Your hottie-king wouldn’t be so happy about that,” Nema smirks, mentioning Elric.
“Anyways, how could no one figure that I was not only a witch? I mean, supernatural beings can smell or sense those things.” Liv asks thoughtfully.
“By blocking your powers, the elf essence within you is kept hidden. There is just a faint smell, which we cover with magic. But even if we didn’t, few beings would be able to tell that you are part elf. They would only maybe notice that you aren’t a common witch,” Astoria explained.
“But there is something that everyone already knows… It is crystal clear that there is nothing normal about you, girl. You are a bit loony,” Nema tells Liv.
“And I am proud of it.” Liv chuckles. Astoria shook her head. “You haven't answered my question… Can we unblock my powers, aunt?”
“There must be a way. I just don’t know how.”
“By the way, what’s your gift? Your powers?”
“She can read minds,” Nema says, grinning.
Liv gulps hard. “Crap.” she mumbles under her breath as her eyes grow wide. Astoria can’t learn about her plan; she will ruin it. Nema laughs at Liv’s nervous expression.
“No, I can’t read minds,” Astoria says with a serious look.
“Your dirty secrets are safe, Sabrina.” Nema winks and Liv lets out the breath she didn't know she was holding.
“I can slow down time for a few seconds, sometimes for a whole minute if I concentrate. It’s quite handy when I’m fighting. I also can manipulate water. Many elves can manipulate elements. It’s the most common kind of gift.”
“Wait... you have two?” Liv asks, confused. She thought that each elf only had a single gift.
“Royals, like us, normally have more than one gift,” Astoria explains.
“Royals? Us? What the frog?” Liv asks, confused. It is a day of many revelations. Actually, her whole life and everything she thought she knew has changed in the last 24 hours.
Astoria sighs. “We are royals, Liv. We are part of the royal family. The King is remotely related to your father and me, very remotely.”
"So remotely that I don't even know how they remember it," Nema laughed.
“Wait, so, I’m some sort of a double princess? Or a bi-princess?” Liv asked, raising a questioning brow.
“They don’t have the titles of prince and princess like your mother does. They are a lord and a lady,” Nema chimed in.
With a sigh, Liv murmured to herself, “Well, Liv, you know nothing! Chicks, is there anything else that I should know? Do I have any other siblings? Am I related to Nema?” Astoria shook her head, and Nema chuckled. “Do you know what kind of gift or gifts I have?” Liv added.
“I couldn’t possibly know, not when your powers and your elf essence are blocked,” Astoria replied.
“I’ve always wanted to ask you that, Nema. How on the supernatural earth did you end up hanging out with these two? I mean, Nymphos normally live in limbo or hell, no?” Liv asks.
Nema snickers again, “Some of us live on earth too among humans. I used to live in hell.” Liv’s eyes grew wide. “It’s not as bad as it sounds. There is never bad weather there! And most of the guys are quite hot! Well, the point is, I was on earth having some carnal fun and I met my elf. We are not mates, but we are kind of addicted to each other. So, I ended up here and I got to know your cranky aunty.” Astoria frowns. “And our sweet fairy friend.” Sienna smiles.
“As you know, I’m mated to an elf,” Sienna replied. Elves and Fae coupled quite often, and their offspring were not considered hybrids, since Elves and Fae had the same kind of magic. Thus, it wasn’t considered inter-species mating.
~ * ~
Some time after Nema, Astoria, and Sienna left, Mel entered Liv's room. Her daughter was looking at the distance, lost in thought and didn't see her coming.
“Hello, sweetie.” Mel greets her with a soft smile, snapping Liv out of her daze.
“Hey mom.... I have big news. I’ve seen him, father. He made me take a blood oath.” she says, crossing her arms in front of her chest in annoyance.
Mel gasps in surprise, “That’s quite extreme.”
Blood oaths are not something supernatural beings took lightly or did on a daily basis. They hold very powerful magic.
“I assure you that he’s not hiding because he’s insanely ugly.”
Mel chuckles, “I didn’t think so.”
“I figured out something else. You know that guy that freaked me out the last time I was here before Avalon locked me in his castle?”
“Yes, when you were sixteen,” Mel replied.
Mel sighs. She was quite disturbed that someone put a Paralysing Spell on her young daughter, blindfolded her, and then stroked her. All of that right under their noses. She complained about it to Cordy and the Fae, who used to escort her around the house. They didn't say or do anything about it. Mel couldn‘t do more than that, it was not like she could talk to her mate. She didn't even know where she was and who those people actually were. But she went there every week anyway. She couldn’t stay away from her mate. She tried to, more than once, but she couldn't. The mate bond was that strong. She also knew that Lea liked to go there, and she wanted her daughters to be able to be close to their father, to get to know him, as much as possible. As much as he let it happen.
“My so-called mate, Elric the Elf, did it. He was the one.” Liv says, shaking her head. Mel gasps, surprised.
“I am so sorry Liv. That’s certainly not how a mate should behave. That's not how anyone should behave, in the first place.”
“I know. But I think the two of us,” Liv pointed to her mother and herself, “shouldn't expect much from our mates. They don’t do anything right.”
Mel gave her an understanding and sad look. She had to agree; her own mate, Liv’s Elf, and Avalon did her and Liv wrong many times.
“I will do something about this, Liv,” Mel reassured her daughter as she took her hand in hers.
Liv flashed her mother a questioning look. She knew that her mother wasn't in a position to do much about it. Liv had to do it by herself, to carry out her plan. Hopefully, the Goddess would take pity on her overcrowded mate situation and grace her with lots of patience and self-control.
~ * ~
Mel is very angry, and she wants to do something about what Liv revealed to her. She will have a word with her mate and the people in the house. How could they let King Elric do what he did to Liv?
She calls Cordy through the bell. “Cordy, I want to see my mate. May you ask him to come here? I also want to talk to whoever is in this house about what happened to my daughter two years ago, about what the Elf King did to her.” she says in an irritated tone. Cordy flinches a bit. He hasn’t heard Mel talk like this for a long time. Normally, she is quite polite and amenable. Minutes later, Tina and Sienna come to see Mel.
“Hello.” she says, her voice dry and stern. The fairies greet her in return. “I want answers about what the Elf King did to my daughter two years ago right under your very noses. I know that someone in this house helped him put Liv under a Paralyzing Spell. I trust you with my daughters, even though I don’t know much about you. You’re supposed to be there for her, but you helped him touch her in her own father’s house.” Mel imagines that this place is her mate's house. She imagines that these fairies and the other beings that occupy the house are her mate’s friends, associates, or employees.
Sienna looks down, ashamed. “I am sorry Princess, I wasn't there when it happened, but I got to know about it later. I didn't agree with it, but there is not much I can do. I really like your daughters and I wouldn't do anything to hurt them.” she says softly.
Mel sighs. She doesn't want to snap at them or be rude, but she needs answers, she needs something to be done, she needs to know that her daughters will be safe here and that Liv will be safe with her Elf mate.
“I just followed orders, your highness,” Tina says formally.
Mel shakes her head. “Even when those orders were wrong? Even when they can endanger my children? I am sorry, Tina, but that is not acceptable.” she says, her anger coming back to her.
“I will… I…” Tina says and flashes away from the room.
“Great, that will result in nothing again,” she mutters, frustrated.
“Sorry that I can't help you,” Sienna says honestly. Mel flashes her a hurt but understanding look. She feels so powerless and exhausted because of this whole situation, this whole mess that has overtaken her life.
~ * ~
A few minutes later, Mel feels his presence and smells his delicious citrus scent. Her mate. He is behind her. She feels him put the mask on her.
“Melinda,” he says. She is startled by his deep voice.
“Sienna told me what happened. You are right to be angry.” he says, caressing her shoulder and neck. She is about to lose it and forget about all her rage. The sparks provoked by his touch drive her crazy. She can smell her arousal and she is sure he can smell it too. They had made love just a few hours ago, just after she arrived, but she already missed him.
**** She missed the feeling of him on her and inside her.
He also has a hard time, literally, concentrating and saying what he came to say. The smell of her arousal and the feeling of her soft skin makes him rock hard.
All supernatural beings can recognize the scent of their mates and especially the smell of their arousal, it has an intense effect on them.
He presses his crotch against her ass, and she moans. His hands move down to her breasts, cupping them. She rocks her hips against his hard-on, making him groan. She revels at listening to his voice, to his sounds for the first time. It also turned her on. He spun her around and claimed her lips, teasing her by caressing her mating mark. She just moans in response. He lifts her in his arms and she wraps her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. He throws them both in her bed, covering her body with his.
“I will thrust hard inside of you, Melinda, and make you come around my member. I will make you scream,” he whispers in her ear. She throws her head back in a moan and presses her core against his bulge. Even clothed he can feel her wetness. ****
Since he didn’t get the chance to talk to her as he intended to, he decides to write her a short letter. At least he succeeded in calming her down and no talking was necessary.
“My dear Melinda,
What the Elf King did was wrong, and he regrets it.
I have personally talked to him about it.
You don't need to worry about him harming Liv, he is her mate and he will love her.
As I love you.
She will be safe and protected, rest assured of it.
Yours.”
