chapter 16

I woke up to a great dream and a restful night.

  I then looked around, and had the random thought this house really is magic, how in the hell did this bed accommodate all of my mates?

I untangled myself from Todd, Devon, and Damon and went to the restroom to do my morning routine.

Once I was done I put on today's outfit and twirled in the mirror I checked my follower count and it went up to 769 in my head I was singing 🎶money money money🎶 from Abba even though it's old school it's a good song.

  I went downstairs and got busy making a simple breakfast of breakfast burritos and fruit salad.

    Once done I got some of the kids text books out and went over their school work while drinking my morning tea.

   I looked at the time and started Ray's coffee her zombie self would be on my other doorstep soon.

  When it was done I put a straw in the coffee glass coffee pot and blinked myself to the beast world right when there was a knock on the door.

    Holding the coffee pot I went to the door and opened it up but the person that was standing there was not Ray.

    He was a tall Man with short blackish blue hair and striking blue eyes had flawless porcelain skin that would make porcelain dolls jealous, his smile screams danger.

  I didn't have enough time to check him out, before he grabbed me twords him and said, "I have found you, you will become mine now."

     He then sprouted large blue scaled wings and we flew off me dropping the coffee pot and screaming in our wake.

     I clung to him while we flew in the sky eagle, peacock, crows, ravens, hawks and other sorts of birdmen, trying desperately to follow us being alerted of my kidnapping from my constant screaming in fear.

Pete's father was in the lead with Damon's father the leopard king on his back.

  Even these four stripped beastmen were no match for his speed.

     I guess he got tired of me screaming so he hushed me, this pissed me off.

So I started to rip his hair out and clawing and biting him in my furious attempts to hurt him I did.

I kneed him so hard that we fell from the sky falling was not going to stop me from giving him what he deserved.

   Honestly I don't know where I got the balls to fight back like that.

He was so not used to a female fighting back that he let go of me and let us fall separately so I popped back into my dimension and screamed, "Pete!" Since I was still falling from this sky.

    Pete didn't get to me first, Lionel did his flamingo claws catch me just before I hit the ground.

   He placed me on to the ground and then turn back into his man form, I clung to him and started ugly sobbing.

    Him like so many other men did not know how to console a weeping woman, he awkwardly hugs me while patting my back.

Not knowing what else to do he picked me up while I still clung to him and ran me to my mates.

     We got to Pete first who tried to pry me off Lionel but I wasn't having it.

So pete put a hide on Lionel for him, knowing that no matter what I wouldn't want naked men around the kids.

We got to the house were everyone was waiting, they started to fuss and ask questions.

I was was crying so hard I was hiccuping which made me cry even harder.

   Lionel went to the living room and set on the couch me clingy cuddling him.

  He rubs circles on my back trying to calm me.

    Tristan checked me from head to toe noting the broken nails and the bruises on my knees and elbows, and the hand prints on my outer thighs.

    Tristan grabbed my face gently and said, "if you don't calm down it will hurt the babies."

   This triggered something in me and I started hyperventilating until I passed out.

   A few hours later I woke up and started freaking out until I realized I was in Lionel's arms still.

He rubbed circles on my back again, and asked in his gentle smooth jazz like voice, "are you feeling better now?"

     I concentrated on my body feeling for aches and pains noticing that there weren't any I asked,"did you feed me crystal?"

Him visibly relaxing said, " emeralds popped out of nowhere and we fed you a couple. We wanted to heal you and make sure you would not lose the babies. Will you tell me now what happened? One minute I was just flying around looking at your world and the next thing I know you were falling from the sky screaming Pete's name."

    I recounted my morning to him but once I got to The stranger I started shaking in fear.

   He hugged me and kissed me on top of my head and said, " if it's too hard for you, then you can tell us when you are ready."

    This was a moment that I looked into his pink eyes and knew I wouldn't be able to live without this man just like the rest of my mates.

    It might be sappy, but to me having somebody genuinely cared for, and being concerned for me, is the most romantic thing a man can do.

    My love language was affirmation, attention, and physical contact.

   I like gifts yes, but I didn't need them or even want them, getting gifts makes me feel awkward, and I would rather have them randomly give me hugs, kiss me on top of the head, and tell me I'm pretty.

In doing so they are giving me attention and showing that they love me.

  I learned a long time ago that a person can tell you they love you, but actions speak volumes.

I then remembered that a crap ton of birds and the raven and leopard king we're trying to rescue me.

  I called for Pete knowing my mates were lingering waiting for me to be okay but not wanting to over welm me.

    Pete stuck his head in and asked with sad puppy eyes and a blush,"you really want me? I failed you I couldn't get to you in time."

    " Oh, my pretty little raven." I detached myself from Lionel and ran to Pete giving him a hug.

   And then sincerely said, " you could never fail me, as long as you try. I think I just caught everyone off guard. I am sorry I made you feel this way. I have learned from this that I need at least two of my strong handsome mates by my side at all times in the beast world."

  I gave my blushing boy a kiss for good measure and then said,"we need to go to the beast world and see your father beast. They were chasing me and that person trying to save me."

I gave an involuntary shudder thinking about what could have happened with that man.

   I looked Perry and Lionel and asked,"would you please go with us?that way I will be safe?"

They puffed out their chest and said, " you can count on us."

    Their silliness released some of the tension and anxiety I was feeling.

   I needed to go and seek out Liangyu she should have her fox guardian by now, and I can't remember the rest of her book beast deity system? Who the hell wants that!?!?

I transmigrated before her hiatus ended.

  I feel like I messed up her book a little by changing things. while messing up the original book but I have tried to stay in my corner to let her do what she needs to do.

   I just can't get over the feeling I am forgetting something important.

   The guys and I made a plan to leave when it was dark that way it would be harder for whatever, that beastmen was to find us I also prepared for if he did I crafted Michelle Pfeiffer's and Hallie Berry Catwoman claw gloves, for myself using titanium metal for the claw parts. Thanks to the Batman movies for the idea.

     I even got some borax from my soap making craft table and ghost pepper from the kitchen and put it in a pouch to throw into his eyes if he gets ahold of me.

  This girl was not going to go down without a fight.

     When we popped out we would be in the same place I was whenever I popped in so I got the guys to fly in the air so it wouldn't be too much of a change for them we don't want any accidents.

Later on when I am on the ground I will do the same thing for my world.

     When we were ready to leave I gave each of my men a kiss on the lips good bye and kissed the top of my childrens head then said to them all, "I love you more than there are stars in all the universes."

   Pete crouched down for me to get on his back enormous Raven back, I monkey climbed on and we were off.

    I blinked us all outside of Eden and flew as fast as we could home.

     About 20 minutes or so out we encountered him to my utter distress this pissed me off.

    I honestly don't know what is happening to me to be so angry and brash, but in my irrational anger I screamed,"I swear to all the gods new and old and the Beast God that if you touch me or even try anything that will cause me to miscarry, I will cut your dick off and mount it on my wall. Then I will find a way to torture your ass every day until the day I die."

    All the men took a pregnant pause, either in shock or dismay I don't know which, but the man gave me a look of respect, shock, and I think the other emotion was fear.

    He nodded his head and asked, "then what should I do? I want you as a mate? I have never been so entrance or interested by a female before. Please guide me to the right path. My family's memories tell me that I was doing it the right way before."

     I let out an exasperated sigh and asked, "how many season rotations are you, That you don't know the basics of courting a female?"

He blushed and started to fidget before saying, "25,000 but I was asleep for most of it in the ocean."

  This statement made me almost fall off Pete from sher shock and astonishment.

   I then asked,"why haven't you found a mate yet? Your ancient!?!"

   He blushed and replied,"I am quite young for a dragon thank you. I am also very picky none of the other females smelled right looked right or had the right personality. I have been watching you since you were at the little village, you are amazing, I am not the only one who thinks this of my kind."

   I was dumbfounded why me? I am a nobody that is a door mat and a pillar of lust and the chaos that my mind.

    Why are all these yummylicious men falling for me? I don't understand it.

    I looked up the man and asked,"can we land I feel really awkward talking to you in the middle of the sky."

    He nodded and we all landed in a nice clearing full of flowers of various colors and types.

I got off Pete and the men went back to their man forms and I took a really long look at this man, I was missing something about him that made him stand out more than the others.

   It hit me like a ton of bricks, this man had no stripes he had tattoos, like a Yakuza oyabun!

   I stared for a moment before asking,"where are your stripes why do you have tattoo?"

He smiled and explained,"I haven't had stripes since I was 5,000 seasons, then I had none afterwards I gained a tattoo every time I gained more strength the tattoo got bigger and more detailed.i an on my fifth.

Once I pass this I will have the strength of a child of the Beast God."

  I nodded understanding that it would be the equivalent of 10 stripes. I didn't know that, that was possible.

      I looked at him and then said, " I will give you 2 weeks to shape up, until then I will consider you a Guardian Beast, if you show me you are the right fit for my family I will let you Court me."

    The pretty Grandpa gave me a very bright smile and agreed.

I smiled back my earlier fear gone and said,"this won't be the first time you will be asked, but will you tell us your Beast form not just your wings? What's your name?"

      He said, " but of course how rude of me I am Blaze."

     After a few seconds an enormous blue dragon took up the entire clearing.

I was amazed by how big he was, I went up to him and felt his scales, they were clearly very hard but the texture was a mix between snake and fish scales.

    My curiosity was sedated, I told everybody, "let's go home."

   I decided I would go back in style and rode the dragon.

   It was a much more pleasant ride this time around, on the way he caught up with the Raven, leopard Kings and they're people.

   We all went home to a frantic leopard Queen.

     Once home I didn't think the woman would ever let me go, we both fell asleep in the castles guest bedroom her cuddling me in a tight hug.
