Page 104 of Legion
“It won’t matter what methods they use, they won’t be successful,” Luka swore.“And theywilldie for harming Naomi.”
“Thus fulfilling the prophecy that the child of the devil, with the help of a legion, will take down the order and its puppeteer,” mused Tia.“But had they just ignored the foretelling, it would likely never have come about.Ironic.”
“I’d say we need to step up our attempts to find their location,” began Jolene, “but we’ve poured everything we have into uncovering it.Even with the small clues we possess, our searches have been fruitless.It shouldn’t be so damn hard to locate a monastery.”
Luka turned to her.“Tell me about these clues.I’ll add my resources to yours.Between us, we should be able to find these clerics.Just note thatIwill be the one to wipe them out.”
A slow grin surfaced on Jolene’s face.“It isn’t me you’ll need to beat to the punch.Knowing Naomi, she’ll get there first.”
Too freaking right she would.
After her mom, Alfie, Jolene, and Tobe left, Luka psychically summoned Daniil.The teleporter took them straight to Luka’s den before then disappearing again.Naomi was about to suggest that they head upstairs and get started on making their mating official in a more physical way, but then Luka was on her.
His hands dived into her hair, his mouth latched onto hers, his kiss swept her away.
He stripped her just enough to have access to her best parts and then took her to the floor.He probed her pussy with his fingers, growled in satisfaction—presumably at how wet she was—and then plunged his cock inside her.He fucked her hard, staring into her eyes the entire time, and when her orgasm approached, her entity took charge.
The demon slid its hands up Luka’s shirt and slapped them on his back; branded him right there and then, sending him over the edge and dragging Naomi with him.They lay there for long moments, striving to catch their breath.
“What does it look like?”he asked.
Knowing he was referring to the brand, she lifted her head to peer over his shoulder.“Uh, well, you now have a line of musical notes all the way down your spine.”
“Musical notes?Representing the siren song, I’m guessing?”
“Yup.”Sirens typically left such brands on their mates.“The top one is right there,” she added, tapping his nape.“And since your hair is short, people are gonna see it easily enough.”Her demon wanted everyone to know that this legion was taken.
A deep self-satisfaction bled into his eyes.“Good.”
Her entity smiled, pleased by his response.“Yeah, it really is,” Naomi agreed.
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
Wincing at the high-pitched noise that came down the line, Luka moved his cell away from his ear.He gave a quick nod of gratitude to Daniil, who’d moments ago returned him to his living area.Once the teleporter disappeared, Luka spoke into his phone again.“Was the girly squeal really necessary?”
“I’m excited for you—go sue me,” said Ella.“While I’d thought that youmightbuild something with Naomi, I wasn’t sure you’d ever take her or anyone else as your mate.”
“I still don’t see how it necessitated squealing.”
She huffed.“Forgive me for not wanting you to grow old alone.”
“I’m a legion.I’ve never been anything close to alone.”
“Having three inner entities isn’t the same as sharing your life with someone.Now, tell me all about how you came to stake your official claim last night.I want to know how, when, what, why.”
“That’s a shame,” he said, walking through the house as he made his way to the foyer, intending to track down his siren, “because I have absolutely no intention of going into specifics.”
Ella let out a prim sniff.“Fine.I’ll just ask Naomi when we meet up at the pool hall on Thursday.”
“She won’t tell you either.”There was too much they needed to hold back.
“I know,” Ella grumbled.“She’s as evasive as you are.You guys suck.And I mean that in the nicest possible way.”
“There’s no real way that telling someone they suck can be nice.”
“Don’t be so literal.”
Reaching the foyer, he heard music playing low upstairs.Naomi had been running a bath when he was called away to deal with a lair matter.He’d hoped to be back in time to join her but, given she didn’t play music while bathing, he was thinking he’d missed that boat.
