“If you’re done with being a slave, hell yes. Go back to your pack a free wolf as you were meant to be,” Kendrick said.
The wolf turned to Loriel; the Knight looked at him with piercing green eyes as if daring him to leave. “It’s been… the sex was great, fantastic even, but fuck you, asshole.”
Kendrick and Monroe burst into laughter as the wolf walked away, followed by Soriel’s wolf and Misha’s. All three dragons held expressions ranging from pissed off, to embarrassed, to incredulous. It sucked, but I was sure they’d get over it… eventually.
“I guess you three should have spent time bonding with your wolves instead of treating them like pieces of meat to fuck whenever your cocks were hard,” Kendrick chastised, then turned to Isiah. “What about you?”
Vex looked at Isiah, but remained quiet. He no longer had any hold over Isiah at this point. Giorgio returned to my side and kissed my neck. I was overwhelmed with emotion after our show of devotion to each other. One thing was for certain, my erection was back fully charged. I was going to fuck Giorgio as soon as the King adjourned this meeting, and I was going to fuck him right in this room. As horny as I was at the moment, it was called for.
Isiah looked at Vex and rolled his eyes. “I think we need to work some things out. You’re not my Alpha, so I don’t know… am I supposed to call you ‘Sir’?”
“Yes, as a show of respect, it would be in your best interest,” Kendrick said.
“Okay, if you’d offered me this option a week ago, I probably would have kicked him in the dick and ran the fuck out of here, Sir” Isiah said, and some of us laughed. “But two nights ago, we had a little breakthrough, one that I want to see where it’s going.” And the look he gave Vex, one that was actually challenging, had my dragon friend blushing. Oh, now that had me curious as fuck as to what had happened between them. I could tell something had changed.
“All right, as long as it’s consensual.”
“It is,” Isiah replied.
“Okay, on to my last edict. Naming of the Elder Knight,” Kendrick said.
Giancarlo’s chest poked out just a bit more as he waited for the King to make his announcement. This was going to be difficult, having to answer to a dragon much younger than I was. But he was already the King’s second-in-command. It was inevitable and something I was going to have to get used to.
“My new Elder Knight will be Tylendel Evion Telias,” Kendrick said, shocking the fuck out of me.
Théoden patted me on the back. “Congratulations.”
Giancarlo looked crushed, betrayed even. His brow deeply furrowed as he glared at me, then turned to Kendrick. “My Liege, may I speak?”
Kendrick sighed as if he were expecting Giancarlo’s disappointment. “You may.”
“My King, I have served you faithfully as your second. I am the oldest Knight in your army,”
“You have served me loyally, but you are no longer the oldest Knight in my army. Tylendel is three-thousand two-hundred and twenty-four years old. Tradition dictates he be named Elder Knight as he once was,” Kendrick said.
Théoden’s mouth dropped open, as did many others, as only a few, like Hexon, knew how old I really was.
“I can see that my decision has hurt you, Giancarlo. How about this.” Kendrick turned toward me. “Tylendel, by tradition, you are named. However, it has been challenged. Normally, I wouldn’t tolerate this, but Giancarlo has earned the right, in my opinion. So, if he defeats you in a battle for the rank, then he will be named Elder Knight. Do you accept?”
“Yes, my Liege,” I said with a bow of my head. I was confident enough in my ability in battle, however, I also knew better not to underestimate Giancarlo simply because he was younger.
Kendrick turned to Giancarlo. “Do you accept?”
He smiled. “Thank you, my Liege. Yes, I accept.”
“There, settled. On the full moon, your battle will be the opening ceremony before I claim my mate’s rock-hard ass for the first time. Then I will anoint the Beta-Capos, brand my High Council, Knights, and Generals, then claim Elliot’s beautiful, furry ass for the second time. And we’ll eat, fuck, and then I will claim him for the third and final time, making us complete. For now, you are all dismissed.” With that, Kendrick left the great hall. Some of the others left with him, like Monroe and Giancarlo.
“Well, this was quite the night,” Théoden said.
“Yeah,” I replied, then grabbed Giorgio by the back of his head, bringing his face to mine, and kissed him. “You belong to me,” I growled when I broke the kiss.
“Yes, Sir,” Giorgio whispered.
I shoved him to his knees and he immediately went to undoing my pants.
“I’m going home,” Vex said.
“We will talk later, Vex,” I said, then moaned as Giorgio took my cock into his mouth.
