Chapter 6
Jacob’s pov
I am surprised at how much my mother has taken to Cassie, even though she has known Catherine her whole life and dad is friends with her mum, she has never been this warm and friendly towards her. Now, all she is doing is singing her praises.
To be fair, I am slightly impressed that such a weak witch can make potions so well. I would have thought that my mum was lying to make her feel better if it wasn’t for Catherine. I know Mum would never have been able to pull that off. She has been trying for years.
The sight of Catherine almost put me off my food, I have never seen anyone look as horrific as she did. She was not happy at all about it, but mum just dismissed it as a joke. I can’t say I would be happy if someone did that to me, but she is acting like it is the end of the world right now.
She has some cheek with the sh.it she has pulled over the years. Next to them, this is nothing. Besides, it will be gone by morning, or at least I hope it will. Unfortunately, I still had to go and see her that night, and I have to keep her happy so she doesn’t say something stupid in front of the wrong person.
Being the good beloved that I am, I make sure to walk Cassie to her room and make sure she is settled for the night. I can’t have her getting up and catching me coming out of Catherine’s room now, can I. Sure of the fact it is safe, I go to try and put out the fire.
Now, I tried my best to be nice. I really did, but how could she expect me to touch her when she looks like that. I am a visual lover, so I like what’s beneath me to look the part, and normally Catherine could please all of my senses. Looking at her just now made my di.ck retreat in fear.
I tried being nice, but she expected me to be just as upset as her and to be able to look past how bad she looks. In the end, I had to tell her straight. If the roles were reversed, I am sure that she would be the same, if not worse.
Now, I am in a bit of a predicament, though. I am so used to us fu.cking each other for hours that I am on edge. I haven’t had my usual exercises to help calm my mind and exhaust me for the night. I am also not used to sleeping alone.
There are a couple of reasons I can not sleep next to her, one being that I can not risk being caught, and the other is, if I wake up to that sight through the night it will give me fu.cking nightmares and I will never sleep anyway, it is like a horror show.
My mind is active half of the night while I lay there thinking about the women in the rooms near me. Cassie is a temptation I don’t need right now. If I thought that I could fu.ck her without the bond growing stronger, I would have kept her in my bed and not tried to act like the caring and chivalrous person I am not.
Catherine, well, as I said, I can bear to look at her tonight. It’s a shame as I have gotten so used to doing whatever the hell I want with her.
It started as friendship, I was flattered that an older girl even gave me the time of day. Catherine actively pursued me, and I was eating out of her hand. Like most supernaturals, Catherine is quite literally s*x on legs.
There were more than a few times that I was sporting a hard on in my teenage years just by looking at her. Then she showed me what pleasure was. Playing my body like a fiddle and showing me how to please a woman.
Her body was divine, and I knew that I wanted Catherine to be my first, but she made me hold out because of my age, refusing to go further until I hit 18. Since I was 17, anyway, I knew I could hold out. I desperately hoped that she would be my fated beloved.
I was heartbroken when I discovered she wasn’t the one made for me, I had already fallen in love with her, so I wanted to keep her next to me. I knew if my beloved was weak, I would leave them for Catherine. Looking back, I am not so sure it was love and not infatuation.
I think she may have done a bit to good a job of corrupting me, as even though she still entranced me, I no longer felt it was love. I did, however, crave her, and for the first time in our relationship, I felt like I was the one in control.
It felt good to be in charge, I felt the same rush that I originally felt when Catherine showed me that we are better than the lower classes. That they were here to do our bidding and to serve us. Before her, I was trained to think that everyone is equal, which we are most definitely not.
Before Catherine, I probably would have been stupid enough to accept Cassie as she was given to me by the goddess. Now I knew that she was just weak and not worthy to stand by my side, and she was just a stepping stone to where I needed to go.
None of my coven would respect a weak leader in charge of them, but it was ultimately the females who ruled in our kingdom. I wish I was born a vampire like Catherine as the men are given their rightful place as rulers there.
You would think with the kingdoms being joined they would let the wizards rule, but no, no one wanted to rock the boat when they knew it was only temporary and that once again each kingdom would have its own separate ruler.
Despite knowing that I wasn’t in love with Catherine, I knew that I wanted her to rule by my side, even more so now that I had definitely not been blessed with that weak beloved of mine. Catherine was strong like me, and I knew our children would be strong hybrids.
Everything was exciting with Catherine as well, so I knew I wouldn’t grow bored. Using our position, we had managed to convince several unmated vampires and witches to join us in our bed. Catherine liked a beautiful young woman as much as I did.
Maybe we will enjoy Cassie together before we get rid of her. She definitely has a beautiful, untouched body that would be a shame to let go to waste before enjoying it fully. I know Catherine would be up for it. I have seen they way she looked at her.
Even if she doesn’t like the fact she is weak and even likes less the fact she is my beloved, she won’t pass up the chance to play with a pretty new toy. I will wait to talk to her about it when she is looking normal again, as right now she will think it is because of how she looks, and she may try to rip my balls off.
Still not able to sleep, I end up giving up and going for a shower and give myself a release, having no one else to assist me right now. Once I have finished, my body is relaxed finally, and I can get some sleep, finally able to rest my mind.
In the morning, I am grumpy and tired from not getting enough hours in bed. I am also not happy that I tried to be the good guy and walk Cassie down for breakfast and found she had already left me, not even thinking about me.
So I get a surprise when I go downstairs and there she is making breakfast as mum and dad sits drinking coffee and chatting happily to her. I admit the food smells amazing, but she shouldn’t be reducing herself to this. As my mate, she needs to have people serving her, not the other way around.
“What are you doing, Cassie? We have people to do this" I say irritated.
“Cassie wanted to do something special for us, stop being grumpy and have some coffee” Mum scolds me while handing me the cup.
“Sorry didn’t sleep well last night” I apologised like the doting beloved, I need to make sure my act looks good. So when things happen in the future, I can pretend to be upset, and it will look believable.
“Don’t worry about it, my nana you can’t speak to her in the mornings before she has had coffee” Cassie says in her beautiful voice while placing a full plate down, it has bacon, sausage, eggs, French toast, and on a separate plate is waffles and loads of toppings.
It tastes divine, and I get another nice surprise to see that Catherine is here and back to her usual sexy self. She sits down and happily grabs food. You can see how much she enjoys it, like the rest of us do.
“Wow did you get a new cook? You should definitely keep this one. They are better than the ones at my coven” Catherine compliments as mum laughs, while Cassie just blushes adorably.
