CHAPTER 6 - CASIDY'S POV - I ACCEPT YOU

4015 Words
'So..' Ava slowly walked up to Aiden and took his hand in both of hers 'Does that mean we can be together now?' 'I...' He looked at her and then me 'Is that what you want?' Ava laughed 'Are you crazy?' She giggled and shook his hand playfully 'Of course I do!' 'And what about you, Casey?' He asked me 'You haven't said anything, do you want to be together now or would you prefer to wait until you come of age' 'She’s ready!' Ava answered for me and looked at me with a pleading expression, but I frowned at her. ‘Don’t speak for me’ I snapped at her, I was furious at her for doing this. 'I am clearly missing something' He surmised 'Casey, I want to know how you feel' 'No you don't' I snapped. 'Casey please don't' Ava pleaded 'You said you'd try, don't start a fight, you're ruining the moment!' 'Ruining the moment!' I couldn't help myself, how dare she 'We shouldn't even be having this moment. I told you I wasn't ready to accept him yet and he obviously didn't want us, but you had to force things, I begged you to heal this stupid mark and now look what you've done!' 'STUPID!?' She shouted angrily 'So my mark is stupid, I am so sorry it's so disgusting to you!' 'Ava stop' I pleaded as tears filled her eyes 'Thats not what I meant, I love you, you know I do but I told you I wasn't ready, you shouldn't have forced things' 'Why aren't you ready, Casidy?' The King asked with a hurt tone in his voice 'Why don't you want to accept me?' 'I just don't!' 'Casey, I've noticed how distant you've been towards me over the years' He stepped closer to me, but I stepped back 'Whatever I've done to hurt you, please know that I'm so sorry, I'd never hurt you intentionally. Is it because I kept this a secret, because I did that for your sake' 'No you didn't!' I snapped at him 'You kept it a secret, so you could continue to sleep with whomever you wanted!' 'Casey please just' 'Ava stop' He hushed her 'Casey that isn't true. I never cared about sleeping with other women, I haven't even desired another woman since I found you two. The only time I ever slept with anyone was after encounters with you two and I had to think about the two of you the entire time just to get off, you and Ava are all I've ever wanted, all I'll ever want, if you're worried about other women, then please know that I will never be with anyone else but the two of you if we agree to be together officially' 'Liar' I snarled 'I have vision's remember, I know you won't be loyal, you'll betray us' 'I don't know what visions you've had, but I can say with 100% certainty that I will never betray you or Ava' 'We'll see' I said angrily and looked away from him, but he walked over to me and took my face in his hands. 'Casidy, my love' He said, and I felt my heart skip a beat 'I will never betray you, your vision was wrong or perhaps you misinterpreted what you saw. Please give me a chance to prove that' I looked up into his gorgeous green eyes and thought for a moment, I knew my vision was real, he'd sleep with her but... but I wanted him so badly. 'Casey please' Ava pleaded. 'Okay' I gave in and stepped out of his hands 'I will give you a chance' 'Really?' He asked happily. 'Yes' I nodded. 'Ahhh!' Ava screamed and jumped up and down 'Thank you Casey, so we can be together now?' 'If be together you mean we can start the courting process, then yes' He told her 'I will inform the thunder tonight that we will get married and' 'Wow, wow, wow!' Ava said and held up her hands 'Who says we're engaged' We both looked at her in confusion, that's all she'd ever wanted and now suddenly she was against it 'I thought...' Aiden looked just as confused as I was 'Isn’t that what you want' 'Well der' She shook her head 'Of course I do, but you can't just go announce we're engaged when you haven't even asked us to marry you yet, and I'm not easy, you know, I want a proper proposal, down on one knee, a ring, and it has to be in a garden.. oh and at night cause Casey loves the stars' My mouth fell open, the girl was crazy, but King Aiden laughed out loud and ran his fingers through his hair. 'Very well' He conceded 'As you wish, Ava dear, I will announce the wedding tonight, but I will work on the proposal. Is that acceptable?' 'Casey?' Ava turned to me, but I shrugged, I didn't care about this kind of thing. 'We accept your terms' She smirked before launching herself into his arm. 'Ava!' Aiden gasped in surprise as he quickly wrapped his arms around her to catch her. Ava didn't give him a chance to say anything else because she smashed her lips down against his. I froze in shock, she'd never kissed anyone but me and I thought it would make me jealous, but instead, I felt a mixture of desire and longing to join them. I was also afraid that she'd gone too far, but the King kissed her back with extreme enthusiasm as he adjusted his grip from around her waist to under her bottom, and he lifted her up higher. Ava moaned into his mouth and ran her finger through his hair, gripping him tightly, but it made King Adrien groan in pleasure. After what seemed like a year, they finally broke apart and Ava giggled and kissed his throat. 'F*ck Ava' He moaned and closed his eyes 'Language, your majesty' She joked 'Or I will tell nanny on you' Sh*t, nanny, she knew about me and Ava now, she was going to whoop us so bad I cleared my throat and they both looked at me, Ava in amusement and the King with black lust filled eyes. 'About nanny' 'I will speak to her' He said quickly, clearly understanding my concern. 'You haven't done anything wrong Casey, well.. you should have waited for me but otherwise it's okay and nanny will understand' 'Who care about nanny right now Casey' Ava exhaled and climbed off our mate and reached out her hand 'Come and kiss him too, you won't believe how good he tastes' I looked at Aiden who's eyes were running over my body but I shook my head. 'Im... I'm not ready' 'Casey don't be silly, just' 'It's alright Ava' He told her, though I could see hurt in his features that actually had me reconsidering my refusal 'Don’t rush her, I can wait. For now, we actually should get going to the ball' 'But..' Ava's face fell 'But I thought, aren't you going to mate and mark us?' My eyes widened, I hadn't even thought about that, I was not ready for a kiss, and she thought I'd just.. 'Ava' I gasped 'We can't go any further than, kissing tonight Ava, it's not an option' He said as he walked over to me and placed his hand gently against Ava's mark to heal it 'And until I have marked you, no more marking each other, okay' 'Okay' I said before stepping out his embrace, he'd left goosebumps all over my skin and I needed some distance to calm down. 'Fine' Ava agreed grumpily and looked at my throat 'But why can't we do more than kiss tonight?' She asked him in confusion 'Is it because of Casey because trust me, I know her, she says she's not ready, but I swear, once she's turned on she'll do anything you want' 'Thanks Ava' I snapped 'Well you do' She smirked 'She acts like a prude, but she's actually really wild when she's turned on and the things she does with her tongue are incredible, she can make me c*m so fast that I' Aiden cleared his throat to silence her and rubbed his face again. 'Stop' He ordered 'I can't... don't make me think about that right now. I'm already turned on enough Ava, I need to concentrate so I can go soft again' 'Soft?' Ava frowned and looked down to see a sizable tent in his trousers. 'Oh' She giggled 'Its so big, can we see it' 'Ava!' I swear this girl needed a cold shower. 'Ava I said we can't do anything else this evening' He told her 'I will calm down on the way to the ball, but if' 'Why can't we?' Ava reached over and gently gripped his manhood through his trousers and he closed his eyes for a second and moaned. 'See you like it' She smirked 'It can be your birthday present. Casey come and help me' 'No' The King quickly stepped out of her grip 'Enough, Ava, come and sit on the bed, we have to talk' He gripped her shoulders and led her, but then he paused and turned her towards a chair inside 'No, on second thought, you sit here and do not move' He pushed her down and turned to me 'Casey, sit on your chair and I will sit on the bed, no one moves, is that clear Ava!' Averly pouted angrily 'Fine' 'Okay' He said breathlessly to steady himself 'Girls, you have to understand something, we are not normal mates, we can't just f*ck and mark one another. Technically, you can't even mark me until you shift anyway, but that's beside the point' He took another steadying breath 'I am the King and you will be my Queens' He went on 'And as such, there are requirements and protocols you have to follow, one of which being that you must be virgins on our wedding night' 'What!' I snapped angrily, it wasn't like I was ready to have s*x with him, but how absurd 'That's a touch hypocritical, don't you think, we have to be virgins, but you can be with whoever you want!' 'I agree' Ava complained, but I knew she didn't care about the rule, she wasn't used to not getting what she wanted and what she wanted was our mate inside of her. 'I know it's not fare' The jerk continued 'But this law is there for a reason. It's to protect you and our children. If anyone even suspected infidelity on either of your parts, the legitimacy of the heir could come into question, you wouldn't want that would you?' 'Well... No' Ava conceded 'Its still ridiculous' I snapped 'Who's to say we'd be loyal even if we are virgins on our wedding night' 'Not that we wouldn't be' Ava said quickly 'We wouldn't betray you' 'I am glad to hear it' He commented 'And it's assumed that after the wedding night, the Queen would be marked so the King would feel it if another man touched her so he'd know straight away if she cheated' 'You can really feel it if your marked mate sleeps with someone else' Ava asked. 'Yes but only if you're a King' He responded 'Its one of our abilities, its said to feel like a knife in the heart' 'But... But what about me and Casey?' She asked 'If we sleep together after we're marked, wouldn't that hurt you every time?' 'I hadn't thought about that' He frowned and looked at each of us 'I hope not because I really want to see the two of you...um' He cleared his throat again and looked down at his pants. He had started to go soft but it was growing again 'Dam it, lets get back on track' 'If you just let me take care of that you could concentrate better' Ava commented sneakily 'I’ve never touched a man before but you could teach me and' 'No!' He said quickly and placed a pillow over his crutch 'If you touch me now, I won't leave you a virgin' 'I don't want you too' She snapped and slumped grumpily in her chair 'Can't we just mate, you'd know instantly that we really are virgins, what does it matter if we lose it tonight or our wedding night? Who's going to know' 'The council will know' He explained 'Its not just a matter of me telling them you're virgins, there will be an examination the day of the wedding to check you both, so I can't mate you now and tell them you were really virgins before I took you, not even a King's word would be enough' 'But that’s ridiculous, you're the King, just tell them you don't want this exam' 'Wait' I interrupted 'What kind of exam?' Aiden looked uncomfortable 'You will each lay down and one of the healers will check your hymen is intact' 'You are going to let some stranger put their fingers inside of us!' Ava shouted and stood up 'NO!' 'I agree!' I snapped and stood up too 'I will not let anyone touch either of us' 'I know it's horrible' He said gently. ‘If you know it’s horrible, then why would you let someone do that to us!’ 'Do you think I like this?’ He asked me ‘I don't, I've been dreading this moment for years, the thought of anyone touching my mates makes me want to kill everyone involved, but every King has had to endure his mate being examined. It's not easy for us either' 'Oh please!' I shouted 'All you have to do is wait to hear the results, you don't have be humiliated and objectified and invaded, I won't do it, I won't agree, and you can't make me!' 'Can’t you do it?' Ava asked 'I don't want anyone else to touch me there' 'As I've said' He pleaded 'Not even my word will be good enough, things need to be done officially. Think of our heir. He'd have the throne taken away from him. They might even try to kill him' 'I would like to see anyone try to harm any of my children' Ava said in warning. 'This is stupid!' I continued 'It would be obvious to anyone that the heir would be yours, he'd be an Alpha and he'd have abilities. Who would doubt us?' 'Girls every male in my family is born an alpha with the potential to produce the heir' He argued 'What if someone says one of my brothers is the child's true father, what then and besides, the two of you have powers. The chances are great that even if I wasn't the father, the child would still have abilities. Please just think about this, you don't have to decide right away but please just think it through' 'I have nothing to think through' I told him stubbornly 'I will not let anyone touch me or Ava!' 'Casey' Ava said in her calming tone 'He has a point, maybe' 'No!' 'Ok' Aiden raised his hands in peace 'Let’s stop talking about this right now, we have to go, or we'll be later than we already are. We can have dinner together tomorrow and have a proper talk. There’s still so much we have to discuss' 'Are you sure we can't skip it' Ava took a step closer to our mate 'Maybe just me and Casey could touch, and you could watch, for your birthday' Aiden laughed and stood up 'You really underestimate my self-control Ava dear, I’ve waited a long time to be with the two of you, I won't be able to stop myself from joining you. You know I never expected this from you, I always thought Casey would be the dominant one in the bedroom, but I guess there's still a lot we need to find out about each other' 'And now that we're all together we can spend more time together!' Ava squealed happily as she rushed back over to the King and took his hand again 'If we really have to go, can you at least kiss me one more time' I rolled my eyes 'Don’t fall for it' I warned him as he leaned down 'She isn't to be trusted. Let's go' Ava giggled and took my hand 'What?' She smirked 'I had to at least try' Aiden laughed and followed us out of our bedroom and down the hallway to the front doorway to our suite. 'This is not how I thought tonight was going to go' He said, but I think it was mostly to himself ‘I really can’t believe this’ 'Are you disappointed that we know?' Ava asked. 'Not in the slightest' He smiled and took her free hand 'I wish you'd told me years ago, Casey, may I hold your hand as well?' Ava released my hand quickly stepped on his other side, leaving a small gap between myself and Aiden and he reached out his hand. I looked up at Ava, who smiled encouragingly, and I gave in and reached out to him. He smiled and kissed my hand before he continued walking out of our suite, but he paused at the door. 'Are you sure you girls are ready for the thunder to know?' He inquired 'Because once we leave this suite there's no going back, and you think there’s rules to being a celestial. Just wait until you hear the rules you have to follow as my mate' 'You know what' Ava joked 'I think I'll reject you afterall' She giggled and shook his hand 'Of course we're ready, we've been ready for years, let's go!' 'Here goes nothing' He smiled and the doors opened. He must have linked our guards. I was extremely nervous as we walked through the castle, but Ava seemed perfectly at ease, she'd moved closer to Aiden and was now hugging his arm and holding his hand in both of hers. 'Will we move to your suite now?' She asked. 'No... please, not yet' I said quickly and Ava gave an annoyed huff. 'I would prefer it' He answered and looked at me 'I’ve had your rooms ready for years now, but I understand that you need more time' 'Rooms?' Ava frowned 'We can't share yours?' 'I have a room that connects with mine, and it will officially be yours and Casey's bedroom' He explained as we turned down another corridor 'And several other rooms that connect to that one, a private lounge, dressing room and so on, but I would prefer it if you slept in my bed every night' 'Oh good' Ava relaxed again 'Because I am sleeping in your bed with Casey, I hated that nanny wouldn't let us share a bed, I always had to sneak into Casey's after nanny went home' 'I see' Aiden tensed a little bit. I didn't think it was because he was upset. 'Its cold and lonely sleeping alone' She shrugged. 'Sleep?' Aiden looked at her and raised his eyebrows, causing her to laugh, I even smiled at his comment. 'We slept eventually' She admitted 'I want to know exactly what the two of you have done' He told us as we turned down another corridor, music was getting louder and I grew a little nervous 'I would like to know how experienced you are, I really thought I'd have to convince the two of you to try and be together, but I have to admit that I am beyond thrilled you enjoy it' 'Aiden will teach us what you like?' Ava blushed a little, which wasn't like her 'I want to learn how to' 'Running late too I see!' A voice interrupted us, and we all turned around to see Beta Ryker and his wife and daughter. Selene was dressed in a beautiful golden gown with her black hair elegantly pulled up and adorned with sparkling gems like Ava's while her mother had a dark red gown that fell off her shoulders. I looked down at my own dress, and for once was grateful nanny and Ava had forced me to dress up. 'I’m glad' He continued as he got closer 'I thought we were the only ones, Selene couldn't pick an outfit' I didn't know if I should let go of Aiden's hand, but when he felt me pull back, he squeezed my hand to keep me in place. 'It's my celebration' The King reminded his Beta 'I can run a little late and besides' He smiled and looked from me Ava 'My mates and I had a lot to discuss' 'Your what's?' Selene said in disgust before she could stop herself. 'Selene!' Her mother growled and slapped her arm 'Forgive her your majesty, she was just surprised, we all are' 'Speak for yourself darling' Beta Ryker smirked 'I am sorry I didn't tell you, I was under orders' 'You knew?' Ava asked him in shock 'For how long' 'Oh I don't know' He shrugged playfully 'Since the day we found you both in the wat.. in the woods' Aiden growled, and I looked up at him. What was wrong? Did Beta Ryker say something he shouldn't have, found us where? Was he going to say water? 'So when you scolded us for sneaking into the kitchen to steal candy when we were 10, you knew we would be your Queens one day?' Ava asked sweetly. She was still very sour about that, it had been the one and only time nanny had smacked her. Beta Ryker laughed 'I am sorry Luna' He told her and I got shocked, but the title, I guess technically we were Luna’s now 'I was under orders not to let either of you know that truth' 'We can talk more about this again after the coronation' Ava said in warning, and Aiden laughed 'Do we still have to use everyone's titles?' 'Only until we're married' 'Married?' Lenore said excitedly 'Oh congratulations, I want to hear every detail of his proposal girls' 'Technically, I haven't asked them yet' The King admitted 'Though I have been told with no uncertain terms that I must do it properly or they'll say no' Beta Ryker laughed again and shook his head 'I can't believe you, you waited all these years, but finally crack with only 9 more months to go' 'I didn't exactly tell them' He smirked at me 'Come on, let's go to the ball and I'll fill you in later' I pulled back, and he looked at me in confusion 'Is something wrong? 'We will meet you inside' He said 'Come on my darlings' After he walked away with his mate and b*tch daughter I looked up at him blushing. 'Are you really going to tell Beta Ryker everything?' 'Yes' He answered, still sounding confused. 'Even about me and Ava?' 'Oh' He smiled 'Of course, why, are you shy about this because Ryker won't judge you girls?' 'No' I lied, well... only half lied 'It’s just none of his business, nothing that happens between the three of us is anyone’s business, we're not just some wh*res you can play with and' 'Hey, Casey enough, calm down' Aiden gently took my face in his hands 'I would never think of either of you that way, nor would I ever treat you in such a manner. I have to inform my Beta about our situation, so we can help protect you both properly, but I promise you that I will never tell him any individual person details about our relationship, okay' I looked into his eyes, he sounded so sincere again. I wanted so desperately to keep my distance, he would break my heart one day and I knew it, but I couldn’t help it, I wanted to be by his side more than anything. I nodded ‘Okay’ I said softly. ‘Shall we?’ He smiled and started pulling us towards the door.
