“I’m good, starting to get a bit tired now though.”
“Yeah me too. but it’s nearly over.”
Finally it’s our turn.
“You guys will have to go ahead, it’s going to close as I walk through it.” Harry says, suppressing a yawn.
“We will literally be right behind you. Hell I can hold onto the back of your shirt so you know we haven’t gone anywhere.” I say when they both start to protest and Harry chuckles.
“Fine do not let go though Darling.” Levi commands.
“Yes Sir.” I smirk, making Harry laugh harder.
He gives me a look filled with heat but turns around so I can hold on. I grab a handful of his shirt firmly and we walk through the portal through to the other side.
“You must be Sage.” A man in a dark suit with bright red horns on his head and small wings spread behind him. “I’m Director Warminster.”
“You sure as hell know how to make an entrance.” A familiar voice calls out his tone full of amusement as he comes to stand at the Director’s side.
“Hey, Declan. It’s nice to see you again.” Levi grins.
“Not quite the way I was expecting to get you to the academy but damn effective and you’ve already made a name for yourselves.” He grins.
As they talk I glance around at the vast and manicured lawns. This place is absolutely stunning. I watch several members of staff start to move all of the Centre’s and their Bonded mates over to a dark stone building next to the giant gothic and beautiful Castle, that must hold the main part of the academy.
“All of the Centre’s and Bonded are being taken to the infirmary building to get looked over.” The Director tells me, clearly seeing where my mind has gone. “I want a full debriefing from all of you on exactly how this occurred but for now its obvious that you all need your rest. Declan had put in a request for your transfer so we have rooms ready for you all. I will find someone to escort you to them.” He says kindly, I already like him more than Director Ann.
“We can show them.” Kysen says striding up with Harry. “Hey brother.”
“I have no idea how you got involved in all of this but I am damn proud of you.” Declan says and Kysen practically beams with pride. “I’ll go and make sure Erin and the others don’t need anything.” He adds before walking off in their direction.
“Tomorrow evening I want you all in my office. I want a debriefing and then we will fill you in on what you need to know about this Academy. There’s a chance that the press are going to try to get involved too but we can cross that bridge when we come to it. you are all under our protection now.” The director says.
“Thank you.” I say sincerely, its nice to have someone who has our back.
“Come on guys, I don’t know about you but I’m about ready to fall asleep where I’m standing.” Kysen says and he starts to lead us towards the huge and Disney like castle, with Harry next to him. The castles here are certainly a hell of a lot more impressive than back in the Earth realm. “I’m not going to bother giving you guys a tour right now, I highly doubtyou’re that bothered and we can do it tomorrow.”
“That’s a good guess.” Jax replies as him and the others all join us going up steps that are wider than a freaking car and leading to wooden doors that are easily as big as a car each.
Once inside I really want to properly take in our surroundings but I just don’t have the energy. I get the sense of space and opulence yet functionality as well. a good balance. Fortunately the hallways are quiet since its the early hours of the morning and we don’t run into anyone. Several flights of stairs later my already protesting body hates me and Kysen finally stops outside of an ornate door.
“This is you,” He says using a normal looking key to open the door and ushering us all inside. “I’ll go through security and everything for it tomorrow but I have something for you.” He says to me as the others wander off to explore our new home.
He grins widely as a mischievous smirk enters his eyes and Harry looks at him curiously.
“What’s this?” I ask as Kysen hands me a deep red stone veined with gold.
“It’s my thanks for saving my life.” He replies winking. “It will block your powers for an hour. Anyone in the same room as you will have their gifts muted. You can finally enjoy your men. Just say the word lust.”
“Out!” I yell. “I owe you big time!” I say to a chuckling Kysen as he ushers a gaping Harry out of the room.
“Trust me you do not want to be in here.” He says loudly.
“Are you ok?” Levi asks.
“More than ok. Kysen gave me a stone that blocks our powers for an hour . . .”
I don’t get to finish my sentence as Levi grabs me and kisses me senseless. He doesn’t bother to take my clothes off or his he simply tears them off and i am so turned on. The rest of them are quick to ditch their clothes too and I’m suddenly surrounded by deliciously naked men.
