I buried my face into her neck and peppered kisses down to her mark.
It was unlikely, but I wouldn’t tell her that yet.
“Let me wash and feed you. Then we can get you to sleep.”
She groaned and shook her head. “No, I will sleep here. I can’t move. I think my lady parts are broken.”
My cocks, which were still buried inside her, begged to differ. They were still clenched by her vagina vacuum and there was no sign of her letting us go.
I needed some fluids.
“Just a small nap. Then, I’ll clean you up. How about that, love?” I trailed a finger down her face her eyes fluttered and she nodded.
My soulkin was out before I could say another word, my cocks still inside her with no signs of her letting me go.
Not that I minded. I got to keep her forever.
Chapter Forty-Four
Elena
Aguttural scream tore from my throat as my chest heaved and expanded grotesquely. It felt as though my ribcage was shattering from within, each cracking bone a new torment. I howled, my voice raw and desperate. My spine stretched unbearably, each vertebra popping and snapping as if rebelling against me.
Previously, relief from my heat pain came through orgasms, semen, and Anaki’s touch. But now, I found myself in a state of agony that nothing could alleviate. It felt as if my body was falling apart in the most dreadful way imaginable.
“It’s alright, love, you got this,” Anaki’s soothing voice, meant to be comforting, was anything but.
I snarled, a voice not of my own snapped at the one person who had always been kind.
“I’m sorry!” I cried out, collapsing into the dirt. The earth felt cool against my skin, which was now covered in hardened, light pink scales. The damper the soil, the better it felt, and I found myself inching ever closer tothe lake.
Anaki edged closer, disregarding my sharp remarks. Dressed only in his boxer briefs, he reached out to seize my arm. I tried to pull back, but he maintained his grip and drew me into his embrace. “It hurts, love, I know. Just know I’m here.”
I panted heavily, my breath coming in ragged gasps as my body stiffened in his arms, a tension overtaking me. My legs straightened out with a sudden, uncontrollable force, and before my eyes, they transformed, sprouting sleek, glistening fins. Blood gushed down my legs in a warm, crimson stream that painted my tanned skin. I squeezed my eyes shut, overwhelmed by the intensity.
“It’s alright, don’t look. Just stay with me.” Anaki turned my head away.
“This is worse than labor. Oh goddess, fuck! Why does it hurt so bad?” I grabbed onto Anaki’s arm. My fingers had sprouted claws, not of my own volition, and pierced his skin. He didn’t say anything. He only winced as his scales gathered around the wound to try to protect himself.
“It’s almost over. You’ve broken almost every bone, and soon you will shift. I know it’s slow going. You are doing so well. It won’t be like this every time.”
Static fizzled in my head, and I heard Locke’s voice come in, clear as day.“Is she dying? Emm is about to have a damn conniption, and I can’t keep her away for much longer.”
I cried out again when I felt my ass damn near explode, then heard a thump as something hit the ground. When I looked back, a long tail had emerged, pale-pink with a white, feathery fin.
“I just shit out a tail!” I whined.
Anaki held his lips in a pursed, thin line, trying not to laugh. “Let’s get you in the water, it will cool you off, and make this better.”
“Alpha, Elena is fine. She’s in the final stages. I’ll keep you updated.”
Locke groaned on the other end.“Be quick, my Luna is getting fucking antsy and I can only keep my dick in her mouth for so long to keep her quiet.”
I tried to laugh, but my jaw dislocated, and I winced.
Anaki picked me up. “Easy, easy. That’s it. Let’s get you in the water, and the rest of these clothes off of you.” I closed my eyes again and let him do his will with me.
Anaki ripped the rest of the clothes off me, which were nothing but strips of cloth. He took me deeper into the water, and my body was almost completely submerged except for my head. I felt tiny pinpricks over my body as the scales covered me. Anaki was shifting, too, and I felt his chest rumble in comfort.
