chapter fourteen- The Travel

The day has finally came Bai Qing Qing is leaving with her future to be mate into the beast city. As for me let's just say I'm ahead on the thought process of leaving this village. This small and welcoming village once a couple of days pass, has been good to me and my mates but it is time for our departure if I want to acquire a certain white tiger. Sorry Bai Qing Qing I seem to be taking some of your mates but….if I truly want to live here I need to acquire a stronghold for me and my family. That white tiger will become a future leader and acquire precious resources, and also he is someone I wish to love only if he'll accept of course.

We had set off on our travels 2 days earlier than Bai Qing Qing since her mate needed to supply more things before the move. Honestly the only reason I'm able to move is because having more mates is quite great on saving time, we all have a job to do and it's quite efficient when it comes to getting things ready. Harvey is running along Quinn and Curtis decent speed, and as for me I am in Curtis arms snuggling up as I enjoy being carried. Pretty soon though we will have to find shelter thank goodness an old cave Curtis used to live in during his many travels should be close by. We had long left the dirt road path and delve deeper into the dense forest. Thanks to having both mates who were very well acquainted with directions we should be able to arrive in 4 days top.

Soon nighttime will approach and I can already feel tiredness from my bond with Harvey we must all rest soon the traveling seems to wear on him.

"Curtis how long is it to the cave?" I ask the question as I mess with his hair man if only I brought hair ties with me over here. After all wouldn't he just look dashing with a French style braid decorated with beautiful wildflowers?

He's beautiful Scarlett eyes look at me as he ponders a bit. With he's head leaning down towards me he nuzzles my neck as he softly whisper "Soon very soon we shall arrive my heart"

Not going to lie I believe my heart just stuttered for that was smooth very smooth. Unfortunately because of that hot encounter I missed the rest of the Journey and no I was not lost in my head thinking about sexy things…. Okay maybe I was but in my defense how could I not be horny with these fine mates?!

"We are here my dear" Quinn voice snapes me out of my daydream as I see a huge circle shape cave covered in vines that flower gorgeous blue flowers similar to roses with hints of baby pink inside the blooming flowers. As I got down from Curtis comfortable embrace I start to make my way further into the mysterious and yet enchanting cave. Inside lays a think and full area that looks like soft clouds. Later I realized they were a type of cotton for bedding. And deeper in to the left is another room that has a pond but no wait?

"Curtis is this cave near by the sea?" Tilting my head upwards a bit as my eyes connects to him. He's arms slither around my waist as he brings me closer to him with a deep relaxed sigh he smiles in adoration. "Yes this water leads to the ocean, you know I do admit when I found this cave my heart I was quite alarmed why it remained empty" with he's smile slowly widening with sharp eyes he's hands began messaging my hips and lower back. "You know my heart you smell quite sweet, I wonder how you taste?" Before I could respond the atmosphere of temptation burst as ripples began surfacing the top of the little swimming pool. Curtis drags me gently behind him as he repositions himself in an defensive posture. All too quickly we see a persons head pop out of the water the lighting is a bit deem with only a type of unique spore lighting up the area as the spores are spread out abit in the caves walls creating a calm scenary with the lightning. The sound of water splashing becomes loud in the quiet atmosphere as more movement happens I begin to see the person in the water move closer to the front, as it's silhouette hops out of the water sitting on the edge back to me. soon a voice so crystal clear and mischievous speaks out with a touch naivety.

"Huh? Haha is someone here? Hmm I smell new scents don't y'all know this cave is occupied hey y'all should step out closer let me get a good look at you oh I should say please right? Manners gotta say they can just disappear sometimes when your caught off guard!"

Looking at Curtis back I see his muscles flexing well knowing him he's most likely pissed off by this interruption. Raising my hands I lay them on the top of his shoulders feeling him flinch as a faint gasp is heard I slowly run my fingers down his back as I hug his waist.

"I'm so sorry my mates thought this place was unoccupied like last time one of my mates stayed here may we please stay one night? We will leave first thing in the morning I promise" two strong hands hold mine against himself by the time my words finish.

"For one night you say? Okay I'll allow that but just know female no matter how gorgeous I am you can't fall in love okay! After all I'm saving myself for a special someone!" Wow what a cheeky brat, but a cute one too it's good that he set boundaries not that I was gonna snatch him or anything but if it was any other chick that could very well be the case. "Thank you for letting us stay may we know your name? This is my mate Curtis and I have two other mates Harvey a leopard Beastmen and Quinn another one of my beloved snake Beastmen and as for me my name is Ares and once again thank you for allowing us to stay"

"Yeah your welcome and as for my name well since you told me your guys name I guess it's no harm in saying it…Sakura don't laugh okay it's not a girls name obviously it's a guys name too!"
