Chapter 26

Ashley never thought that he would see his mate so early. He had only being a vampire for about five years, give or take some months. He had thought that Gwen was an anomaly for finding her mate early but now, he was one too.

To find your mate is very rare, but for two less than a decade vampires to be mated to two of the oldest vampires. It brings a new meaning of robbing the cradle.

Still he was already feeling attracted to his mate. His mate who is the huntress in the primordials, the one who slice and dice the vampire community threats like they are nothing. He knew that he should feel weary about her use of a knife but he is not, after all he also use a knife and the way she uses it makes him think about sexual fantasies that involves bondage. His of course. He already knew that if anyone had the idea of tying Courtney up for any reason at all, that the person has a dying wish.

Courtney was a dominant female and he knew that his size and the way he carries himself scream alpha male and that is why Courtney is finding it difficult to start a conversation after leaving where Vince and Gwen is.

He won't call himself a dominant neither will he refer to himself as a submissive, the word he would use is laid back. And that was the exact reason why he sat down. So that Courtney can tower over him but kept quiet as if he was an alpha and was allowing the lesser partner to start talking first. Two contradicting actions but Courtney didn't pay attention, all she did was pace around then try to formulate words.

He was also passing a message across. That he will not be a pushover in the relationship.

" look. " Courtney started. " you cannot come between me and my work. There are going to be a lot of times I won't allow you to dictate for me. "

Ashley smiled as she stumbled over her words. " why would I dictate for you when I am cool with whatever you want "

Courtney looked confused at her mate statement, she didn't understand what he meant by that. Did, did he mean that he didn't want to be her mate. She doesn't usually feel so insecure but it brought out her earlier days as a vampire and her last days as a human before she was turned

" you don't want me. " Courtney hated the way her voice stuttered but she needed to know if her own mate will reject her.

" what. " Ashley asked in shock. How can she ask that. He will fighting his instincts with everything he got so as not to mark her without her permission like Gwen did when she found Vince.

" Court, I am fighting with myself so as not to pounce on you. How did that silly idea form. " Ashley asked

" you said you are okay with what decide on. "

" yes, because you must have realised, you are the stronger one in this relationship. You are the dominant. " Ashley tells her.

" that is impossible, you are an alpha. " Courtney returns.

" I might be but you are way stronger than me. You are the dominant which is a good thing because I am a lazy guy. " Ashley said as Courtney paused and realised what he meant. He was happy to follow her where ever she leads. He will only protest if he doesn't like where they were heading to or when she needed him to be the boss.

Courtney smiled. " and how did you come to that conclusion. "

" I don't like leading. I am more of a follower. I will follow you wherever you go. That you can count on. " Ashley said with a shrug as Courtney gave a smile and leaned into his arms after sitting in his laps.

" okay. How do you think Vincent and Gwen fare. " Courtney asked as Ashley buries his head in her shoulder.

" they better be okay. There is no way I will leave to check on them and no way I would allow you to do so too. " Ashley growls.

" I thought you said that you weren't the dominant in the relationship. " Courtney asked as with her voice light with happiness.

" oh believe me when I say that in a second. The only thing that will be on our minds is to get more comfortable. " Ashley said as he used his hands to find her buttons in her top and also started kissing her skin.

" I think you are all talk... " Courtney said in a teasing manner but Ashley didn't let her to finish, he ripped her top open the same time he bit into her neck. " oh God. " Courtney moans.

" told you. " Ashley said raising his head but Courtney forced his head back on her neck as all that entered her mind was a more comfortable place. She teleported them to her home only for Ashley to let out a laughter.

He wasn't laughing ten seconds later when he found himself under Courtney.

She had tore his clothes off his body and had his cock in her pussy within record time. She was riding him hard while biting into his neck. Ashley was a moaning beneath her as all he could focus on was pleasure. He came hard before Courtney and bit her neck while she came and within a few minutes they went for another round... Until they lost count and were just interested in each other.

Courtney knew that either of them will leave her bed until they have to and she hoped that the primordials won't need her anytime soon because she will be very pissed if they drag her away from her mate.

Somewhere in a vault that was highly guarded, a primordial opened a safe with force even though he knew the code. The others should guess who took the crystal of the vampires, that is the source of their power. He would remain in the council for as long as he could. Bringing it down from the inside.

They will never know who else really killing the vampires because they will never look within themselves. He took the crystal as he walked out of the vault and the building. Dead bodies littered everywhere and he killed them just like he killed the others. In a way that the witches and werewolves were suspected with not one special of evidence pointing towards him.

The Vampire world would crumble, the whole supernatural world would crumble and when it did, from the ashes and ruin a new world will be born and he would be among one of the Supreme leaders.
