The Witch’s Regrets

Vampires

Svetlana pov

Goddess she hated this place! She hated the Volkov family for what they had done to her daughter, but Svetlana had never wanted what she had just witnessed. Svetlana watched as Luka killed his former wick and hauled his parents into the dungeons. She was in shock! Svetlana couldn’t believe that he had done this. Luka never acted this rash, she wasn’t saying she disagreed with his decisions. Svetlana was worried about any blowback from people of the coven. Luka was still vibrating as his magic was still flowing through him. It was very dangerous as he was so powerful.

“Luka,” she called out to him. Luka turned around and his eyes soften at seeing her and the vibrations settled. “We have to get our little girl back,” she told him with worry in her voice.

“I will I swear it, guard bring me the Patrovi family,” Luka screamed to the guards who still stood at the door clearly afraid, Svetlana knew things were going to get ugly. Alexander Patrovi wanted control of the coven for hundreds of years and hated the fact that Luka was so powerful. Luka had always viewed the man as an annoying insect to swat away, he didn’t like that she was friends with his wife or that Natasha and Alexei were friends. However, Luka put up with it for his girls. Luka grabbed her hand then took off out of the dining room. Luka marched off to the throne room with long determined strides, Luka had always hated this room and rarely ever used it. Svetlana knew that he was furious, the reached the doors of the throne room and before the door could be opened by the guards Luka blasted it open with his magic.

“Luka you need to calm down before an innocent gets hurt in this.” Luka whipped his head around,

“Innocent? None of these people are innocent and they know it. That is why they are all so afraid, everyone thought my decision to exile that cunt was too harsh. That I should just forget about my half-blood of a daughter. I was such a fool for so long,” Luka ranted and honestly Svetlana let him rant. She didn’t know what to say to him, Luka’s rant was only interrupted by a guard announcing that the Patrovi’s had been brought in. Luka had sat down in his chair, and forced her to sit where his mother would normally sit. The old crone would have a coronary if she could see Svetlana the peasant now.

“Luka what is the reason for calling us to the throne room?”

“How dare you not address me by my proper title?!” Luka hollered at Alexander and Irina Patrovi. Luka was never one for the old world traditions, but in the throne room he stuck to them honoring the sacred rules of the coven and the Moon Goddess. The entire coven knew of this and for Alexander to blatantly speak friendly with Luka was disrespecting his title. The throne room vibrated with Luka’s power so violently that the crystal chandelier busted off and fell not ten feet from where the Patrovi’s stood. Irina screamed and Alexander cried,

“Forgive me High Priest!” Luka seemed satisfied with their answer and with a flick of fingers the chandelier was back in perfect condition on the ceiling.

“Now unless you want to join my parents in the dungeons or Julie in the afterlife I suggest you answer my questions honestly.” Svetlana almost missed it, but Alexander flinched just slightly. Luka undoubtedly caught their fear.

“Tell me your role in your son’s a*******n of my daughter,” Luka demanded and without hesitation Alexander talked.

“Alexei asked me to lend his power. I agreed initially not knowing what he needed the power for. When my son arrived at the cabin he had your daughter with him under a sleep spell and I tried to back out. Alexei- “Alexander hung his head. “He overpowered me and took my power. When I woke up he was gone.” Svetlana looked from Alexander to Luka.

“Irina is this what happened?” Luka asked and Irina simply nodded. Luka got off of his throne.

“Do you truly think I’m that big of a fool? That I don’t know you haven’t coveted my position your whole life? That I don’t know you had your wife and son wedge into our life’s to better your situation? I allowed it as you are so insignificant that it doesn’t matter what you do that you can’t take my position away. This however, aiding that bastard to do Goddess knows what to my daughter, you are done for Patrovi and so is the rest of your family.” Luka looked to the guards who knew to haul them away.

“You’ll regret this Volkov!” Patrovi screamed as the guards grabbed them and Luka snarled.

“The only thing I regret is allowing your family to get close to mine!” Luka snarled.

Alexei pov

It had been three days since Lex had taken Natasha and altered her mind. Luka obviously never sent him on a mission to hunt down feral vampires, but it was Lex’s mission from the coven before all of this mess. So in his mind it wasn’t really a lie, not really. Alexei only lied about when Luka sent him on the mission. The feral vampire situation had gotten worse and the royal vampire families had asked the covens for help. Lex just needed to get Natasha away from that werewolf pack so their bond could form. Then by the time they truly mated the Volkov’s wouldn’t have a choice but to accept him as Nat’s wick and future coven leader whenever Luka handed over the reigns to his daughter. That was the plan anyway.

Alexei and Natasha had popped over to Hungary to help the vampire clan that requested for help and Lex couldn’t deny that things were odd to say the least. Odd in a good way.

The first day was rough as the two newly bonded pair came to the clan during a feral attack. There were several ferals attacking the clan. Natasha and Alexei both got to work, and it was a rough go as Lex was drained from altering her memories. Lex was still able to call upon his fire with pin-point precious and blast the feral vampires through the heart. Killing them. Natasha had more troubles as she didn’t delve into dark magic. That didn’t stop her from killing several feral vampires by opening small portals just above their heads and then partially shoving them through before closing the portal. Effectively cutting them in half. It was brilliant. Feral vampires were very dangerous to all of the supernatural community, but particularly the vampires. A single bite or scratch infected them with their feral vampire toxins and started the change to a feral. The vampires had been working on a cure for thousands of years, but there had never been a definitive reason as to why a vampire went feral in the first place. They were similar to rogues werewolf’s, but more akin to zombies. The issue seems to be that some one is making more feral vampires purposely, which is why the coven was called in.

When the attack was over the clan leader repeatedly praised them and were quickly shown a room. This was the first night in a bed together since they were ten years old. The first night Nat passed out quickly as she clearly hadn’t used her magic in a long time. Lex stayed awake for hours watching her and lost in the past memories of how he would sneak into Natasha’s bed and the two of them would talk late into the night.

His father had ordered him to be Natasha’s friend to get close to the Volkov family, but those nights Nat was simply the only friend he had. Lex had told her things that he never told anyone else, and he later hated her for it. Lex hated himself for ever being vulnerable. Lex always wanted to know why Natasha never told anyone his secrets when he bullied her, well minus him using dark magic. That was the only one she told, and Lex knew it was because Nat was worried for him.

The second night Alexei waited until Nat was already asleep that night until he slipped into bed with her. One of the memories he implanted was they had already finished their bonding, so Natasha thought they already had slept together. Natasha had been so affectionate with him ever since she woke up. Alexei couldn’t deny the fact that he liked it, a lot. Lex blamed these feelings on the wick bond, but he secretly loved when Natasha grabbed his hand during the meeting with the vampire elders. Nat spent the entire time tracing circles on his palms, and in return Lex placed his hand on her thigh close her center. He loved her tiny gasp of surprise.

While Lex implanted the memory he wasn’t ready to sleep with Natasha as of yet. Alexei wanted to sleep with Nat, had originally planned to do so to solidify their bond the first night they arrived. However, when Natasha pulled them to their room to retire for the night Alex looked deep into her eyes and told Nat that he had to meet with the vampires. Alexei had no idea why he lied, why he didn’t follow through with his original plan. That was a lie as well, he was feeling guilty and Alexei hated feeling this way. Alexei fell asleep that night and hoped that things could change in the coming morning.

.

Alexei woke up with a raging hard on and Natasha running her hands all over his body while kissing his neck. She had a leg thrown around his hips and he could feel the heat of her v****a through the thin material of her panties. Lex’s hand was cupping her a*s unknowingly pulling her close to him. Well s**t. How do I get out of this? Do I even want to? Natasha realized he was awake and fused her lips to his. Lex has kissed and screwed many girls over the course of his short twenty-five years of life. They all faded away and ceased to exist the second he kissed his wick.

Alexei pulled away, he had to as this wasn’t real. He changed her memories and she wasn’t really kissing him. Nat was kissing the guy she believed Alexei was, not the true bast.ard he truly was. The man Natasha hated and ran away from.

“Alex? What’s wrong?” Natasha asked with a voice filled with desire.

“Nothing, we just have a meeting with the vampire clans in a few moments.” Alexei lied, again.

“Can’t it wait?” Natasha asked and grabbed his erection. Alexei moaned,

“No I don’t think it can.” Alexei kissed her one last time, not knowing if it would be the last and got out of bed. Lex jumped into the cold shower and by the time he washed his l**t had managed to cool down. When he got out Nat was ready. When they walked downstairs and into the meeting room several vampires greeted them.

“Natasha?” Nat looked to one vampire and was delighted to see them.

“Stephan?” Nat asked in delight and hugged the vampire. Sh.it it was her ex-boyfriend. We will have to leave sooner than anticipated.
