Bab 35: A Hybrid's Craving
Athanasia saw Amaris' neck. She moved closer to her to check her mark. Then she looked at Zion's neck and noticed the mark.
"She changed and marked me." Zion said, explaining the symbol on his neck.
"Into a bestia?" Athanasia frowned.
Zion shook his head and told her what happened to Amaris. Athanasia proudly smiled.
"The moon was your mom's symbol, the sword was your father's. The rose and the thorns signifies a forbidden love." Athanasia explained.
Amaris' heart felt happy and proud. The mark she gave to her lover was her parents' symbols. She touched the symbol on her neck and looked at her aunt, hoping for an explanation.
"An Alpha's mark signifies his power. The water symbol and the fire symbol were Zion's elemental powers. He was given the power to control both elements by the Mother God, Maka." Athanasia started.
Zion didn't really know why he was given those gifts by the Gods. His parents didn't tell him about it and he wasn't interested to know the reason until it appeared in Amaris neck.
"Maka gave birth to four elemental Gods. Ignus, the Fire God, Aqua, the Water Goddess, Ventus, the Wind God and Terra, the Goddess of Earth. Among her children, Ignus and Aqua always disagreed with one another, attacking the other using their powers. With that, the humans were scared of them. So Maka took their elemental powers and randomly chose a creature who would inherit them. Zion was still in her mother's belly when Maka gave that power." Athanasia continued.
Zion sighed. It was like Amaris told him. Why him? The gifts, the blessing and the powers given by the Gods were overwhelming. His pack survived for a hundred years because of it.
"Can a demon's mark lift a curse from a God?" Zion suddenly asked.
"In your case, you are cursed by the Moon Goddess, her mother. But her father's blood was stronger and Selene's weakness was Phelan. So it's possible that the curse weakened or maybe lifted when Amaris marked you. Did you feel a change inside you?" Athanasia asked.
Zion nodded. He didn't try his other powers yet but his wolf's senses were back and he felt stronger after he was marked by Amaris.
"Your powers will get back slowly. You marked each other but you still have to go through with the Luna ceremony, right?" The princess asked again.
Amaris looked at Zion again. "What's a Luna ceremony?"
"It's where all the pack members including the elders will gather to introduce you as the official Luna of the pack. It's done on the last full moon of the current month under the moonlight." Zion answered.
"You will also mark each other in front of everyone. I want to remind you, since we don't know yet if she has a bestia, it's possible that she would suddenly transform into one. Demon's transformed during mating when its desire and lust were at its peak. We don't know when it would occur exactly, but we feel it. Amaris you will feel a different level of excitement and thrill. Your adrenaline will reach its highest level then you will transform." Her aunt continued.
Amaris felt a throbbing pain in her head and her vision seemed a little blurry. All that information that she found out was making her dizzy.
"How did you know all of this? You are a demon princess, a fallen one." Xavier asked Athanasia, curiosity piqued.
Athanasia laughed. "It's a secret. You don't need to know anything about me. Anyway, last night was the first time she put that mark on you?" She asked, looking at Zion.
Zion nodded. The demon princess smiled mischievously. Amaris didn't know but she suddenly felt embarrassed talking about it.
"Remember, she's a half demon. For full blooded demons like me, we marked our mate on the first night in our human form. Then another mark in our beast's form. She may or may not have a bestia since she's half Goddess. But I know her heat wouldn't be like her mother's."
Amaris and Zion frowned, glancing at each other. Amaris' face was flushed and Zion was enjoying seeing her like that.
"W-What do you mean?" Amaris asked, blushing.
Athanasia gave a wicked smile before answering.
"A female werewolf has seven to ten days of heat but a demon's lust and desire lasts forever. If there's a specific season for them, we don't have that. But I think yours would come from both, you are half Demon and half Goddess. A hybrid's craving, wild and sweet."
Amaris' eyes widened, but Zion was smiling widely. Zoila threw a pillow to her brother while Xavier was giving Zion a meaningful look.
"Oh before I forget, we don't have a specific time for that as well. If she wanted you to fuck her now, you should do it. Or else she'll get wilder. You don't want her to go around naked in front of everyone right?"
Amaris' face was so red from embarrassment, also feeling a sudden heat in her body. She looked at Zion and bit her lips. Zion saw that she suddenly became anxious. Is she in heat? That was fast. He thought.
Amaris was startled when Zion held her hand. His warm hand was making her body hot. She felt like she wanted to be touched by him. She gasped for air and felt her breath burning.
Athanasia could sense what's happening with her niece. She was also like that with Alistair. That was one of the sins of demons, lust. Most demons lust towards anyone, but there are some who only felt it towards their chosen mate.
"Love?" Amaris called Zion in a raspy voice.
Zion nodded. He looked at Athanasia and the others. They understood what was happening. He stood up then pulled Amaris out of the penthouse.
As soon as the elevator door closed, Amaris' eyes changed to red. She couldn't control herself anymore and to Zion's surprise, Amaris pushed him against the wall, slamming her lips into his.
He felt Amaris hands unbuckling his belt. He held her hands to stop her. Then she stopped kissing him.
Zion saw that she was mad when he stopped her. Her red eyes were like fire burning with her own desire and lust, but with a mixture of anger. It was the first time he saw her like that. Was that a hybrid's craving? He asked himself.
"Are you rejecting me now?" She frowned.
