The Alpha's Temptation
Chapter 265 Newly Acquired Powers

Chapter 265 Newly Acquired Powers

Eltanin's body felt like a reservoir of inconceivable power. Blood thrumming in his veins was suffused with magic that felt like home. It was as if it belonged to him. His body trembled slightly and his lips parted in a rough exhale. His powers were channelized. He felt like he could take over the world. The magic in his body spread all over him giving him a soft glow. It enveloped his mate too.

He realized the reason why the Moon Goddess chose a fae for him. In a world dominated by werewolves, only a fae mate was capable enough to be his mate. Only a fae could hold the entire Yunabi for him. How fate worked was beyond comprehension. But he couldn't imagine anything different from what happened.

Her blood tasted like lavender and honey and it was impossible for him to stop feeding from her, but when Tania's body felt limp in his hands, he panicked.

"Tania! Tania!" he called her, shaking her shoulders lightly. Had he taken too much blood from her? She looked pale, but there was a delicate smile on her face as if she was feeling... happy. "Talk to me. Please."

After he had taken blood from her, she felt lighter. Eltanin was a demigod and she came to realize it all the more after his appetite for her blood. As his mate, she wanted him to feed from her not only because of the magic she held inside her, but also because she liked it. She peeled open her eyes slightly and looked at him lazily. "I am fine, Elty..." she replied in a soft voice. "And you?"

She could see that aether had spilled out of his eyes and now it streaked in sharp silver lines on the sides. His face was glowing with a permanent halo around it. So this was how a demigod looked. His features had enhanced. Those beautiful lips had become plumper and his muscles were even more ridged than before. "You look beautiful..." she whispered. It was difficult for her to open her eyes anymore. She wanted to sleep. She had done what she was meant for in her life. Her purpose was accomplished. She was born for Eltanin. This was why the Moon Goddess had chosen her for him. And only her.

"Calaman's horns!" he rasped. He pulled out from her and sat down beside her. She needed to eat and eat a lot. What had he done? How could he mindlessly suck her blood? But he simply couldn't stop himself because the magic wanted to get inside him. It wanted to leave Tania and be a part of his body. And the strange part was that he wasn't feeling delirious like Tania felt when she had the Yunabi magic in her. He was liking it. His beast was reveling in it. In fact, his beast was now ecstatic. He hadn't been satisfied in a long time.

Eltanin covered her with blankets and tapped the shell above him twice. It opened and he got out of the bed. Wrapping a sheet around his waist, he ordered a guard standing at the door to get food for Tania. He realized that it was already morning and faint lights of sun that filtered through water surrounded their bedchamber. He saw small colorful fish running around the glass walls, hiding in and out of the planktons.

His gaze returned to his mate. He went to the closet in the room from where took out a comfortable chemise. He hurried to Tania and made her wear the chemise, not wanting the maids to see her naked. She was smelling of sex and juices and it was doing something to him all over again. He sat down beside her, trying his best to control his wayward thoughts. Grabbing her hand in his, he cleared the strands of hair that had fallen on her forehead. Her heartbeat was slow, but he knew why. "Don't sleep, Tania," he said to her, kissing her hand.

Her lips curled up. "But I want to..."

"After having food. Please." He was so guilty that he decided never to taste her blood again. Why did he feel that her blood was like an aphrodisiac for him? He berated himself mentally for even thinking like this.

The servant brought the food tray for them. He made Tania sit in his lap as he fed her with his hands. After he saw color in her cheeks, he made her lie down back on the bed and slid beside her. He stroked her hair as she curled into him. He continued to think how things would go after this. He wanted to go back to Draka but also see how his newly acquired powers worked.

p When Tania was sleeping soundly next to him, he kissed her forehead and then got up. He had to meet his mother and take her help. And suddenly, he realized why Ileus sent him to Stourin. It was because he not only wanted them to remain safe while he claimed his mate all over again, but also so that his mother could help him with channeling his powers. She would be the best guide.

He chuckled at his friend and then feeling thrilled, he dressed up in a simple white tunic and white trousers. Giving a glance at Tania, he closed the door behind him, instructing the guards to not let anyone enter because she was sleeping.

Taiyi was in her bedchamber. A servant was washing her feet. As soon as she saw Eltanin, she dismissed the servant and stared at him for a long time. "You have acquired the magic and powers that were supposed to be yours," she said as she embraced her son. There was a wide smile on her face. "And you don't know what to do with it!"

"I feel very energetic and restless, Mother," said Eltanin, removing himself.

She cupped his cheek with one hand. "That is natural. You will be having these bouts of restlessness." She turned back to her bed and sat on it. She patted it beside her, indicating to him to sit there. "How is Tania doing?" she asked. "I want to meet her and thank her for all of this."

"She is sleeping."

"Ah, she needs that sleep," Taiyi remarked.
