Chapter Nine: we are one

(If you are uncomfortable with intimate scenes skip this chapter)

Conrad took Cynthia's hand and together they went up Conrad's room. They sat quietly on the bed. Neither said much as both had a lot swimming around in their heads. Their wolves were quiet as well.

After quite a bit of time,Cynthia climbed onto Conrad's lap and kissed his cheek then gently.brushed his lips. Conrad deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around her waist drawing her closer to his chest. Their kiss became passionate and their bodies began to heat up. Cynthia's ran her fingers through his hair. Conrad allowed his hands to rub her back. They broke the kiss to breathe but did not separate ...their foreheads still pressed together as they caught their breath. Cynthia reached into Conrad and began to unbuttoned his shirt. Conrad grabbed her hands and stopped them and askes,"Are you sure?" Cynthia nodded yes. She finished unbuttoned his shirt and pulled it off him. Conrad pulled off her t shirt and reached to un do her bra and kissed her cheek, moved down her neck to the spot where he intended to leave his mark and inhaled. Her scent was so intoxicating. She began to kiss the spot she would.leave her mark and gently sucked on the skin. He shivered. He nipped at her neck and she shivered.

He removed her bra and her lovely breasts were uncovered. He pushed her back just a bit to behold her. "My love." he whispered. "You are glorious." She blushed. She rubbed his chest and then kissed him hard nd passionately. That was it. He laid her down on the bed and returned the kiss.

Slowly, Conrad made his way down to her breasts. He cupped one in his hand and gently sucked on the other. The reversed. He then kissed down her stomach to the top of her pants. He stopped there.Cynthia was rubbing his back and letting her fingers get lost in his hair. When he sucked on her nipped she gasped. It was delightful. Neither were fully naked. Both sti had their pants on. Cynthia knew Conrad was hesitating to be considerate of her. She smiled and loved him even more. She knew if she said stop, he would. So, she took the initiative again and reached down to unbutton and unzip her pants. She slid them over her hips, kicked them off onto the floor and laid there in just her panties. Conrad swallowed hard. His Adam's apple was moving up and down. He just laid there looking at her perfect body, mesmerized by her beauty. She giggled softly, "My love. I am yours. You are mine." Conrad looked up into her beautiful blue eyes ... purple flecks appeared. Then he smelled her arousal. He took a deep breath in and unwrapped his pants and slide them down to the floor leaving him in his boxers. She let her eyes wander and saw he too was quite aroused. She smiled and got to a kneeling position. He laid down and watched her move. Her hand wandered on his chest, down his abdomen to his boxer band and stopped.Conrad held his breath. He was worried she would freeze but she didn't, she took the band and lowered it and he lifted his hips to allow her to remove his boxers. When she did, he was there in all his glory. She gulped. "Will you for me? Do I have room for you?" He chuckled. "Of course I will fit you. We were made for one another, my love." He reached up and pulled her down into a kiss. She took off her panties and both now were naked. There was no embarrassment. No awkwardness between them. They were as the Moon Goddess made them to be.

Conrad and Cynthia explored one another lovingly, gently, passionately, wanting to know each other fully. They were not in a hurry. Each had waited for this and would not be rushed. Their wolves stayed tucked away respecting their humans' wishes to be gentle and deliberate. There would be time for rawer sex later, if they chose. Tonight was for uniting themselves one to another. Conrad wanted so badly to mark Cynthia but he was afraid he would overwhelm her so he paused his kisses all over her body and looked into her eyes. "Love, I so want to mark you!" "Me too." was her response. Conrad kissednher cheek...her lips...nibbled her ear lob..and kissed down her neck, which she had exposed so he could mark her. Then he extended his canines and but into her soft spot where her neck and shoulder met. Just as he sank his teeth into her, she sank her teeth into him. Sparks flew but power coursed through them. Their pendants glowed. It was like a bolt of lightning ran through them both. They pulled back and locked each other's mark and looked into each other's eyes. Hers were now purple and his were golden.

They continued to explore one another.. When Conrad thought Cynthia was ready enough, he laid her on her back and gently spread her legs. He kneeled at her entrance and guided himself to her entrance. "Love, this is going to hurt at first. I am sorry I will he as slow and gentle as I can be but to break the hymene it will hurt.. Just for a moment though.. ok? Are you sure?" Cynthia opened her eyes and looked lovingly at him.. "I am ok.. You can not hurt me." He inched into her, carefully, gently.. He held himself up on his two.arms and leaned down to kiss her as he slowly peneyratrd her. She was so lost in his kisses that she was not aware he was all the through and in. He started to move in and out and she arched her back and then moved her hips in sync with him.. Then it happened. The power they felt surge into them was overpowering both of them.. Their bodies heated up and they felt themselves beingbliftedbup off the bed then sat back down on the bed. They stopped moving andnstarred at one another. Cynthia reachednup andnoulled.Conrad down onto her and kissed him. That was all he needed to continue then finish together.

They had consummated their relationship with tender love making until both released and they curled up into each other's arms. Conrad grabbed the light blanket and covered them both.

Hours later as he held his mate in his arms (she was sound asleep and he was almost there himself), he thought back at the experience of marking and mating with his beloved. She now bore his mark and he bore hers. The mark the same actually. It was of the Royals: two wolves howling at a full moon with crowns on their heads.But unlike most marks, theirs went out to their shoulder in vines which branched off.At the end of each branch was a symbol of a species of supernaturals. For the Vampires there was a bat. For the Fayes, delicate fairy wings. For the witches, a pentagram. What surprised them was that there were three more vines: demons (horns), dwarves (sword) and angels (full wings).It was a work of art and everyone who would see it would know here stood the King and Queen of all Supernaturals.

Conrad was remembering what happened when they marked one another.There was this burst of immense power and electricity which flowed through them. They marked one another before they mated. When the consummated their relationship the surge of power almost knocked them both out. Conrad had no idea he would literally have his world rocked by finding his mate. She was worth it. This was worth the waiting, the secrets and now the war to come. Yes. Well, well worth it all. He closed his eyes and slept.
