[B.S. #2] Bound to Cyn (22 page)

“This is beautiful. I would be honored to wear it…Angel never did tell me your name. He just calls you Grandma.” Cyn told her as see reached out and fingered the dress with its intricate bead work.

“You are to call me Grandma, also. After this ceremony you are a member of my family. In my heart, you will be considered one with Angel. I see how Angel looks at you. You hold his fate in the palm of your hand. Look after him. He is only a man after all.” Cyn laughed at the wise woman as she helped her into the dress.

A knock at the door heralded Avery’s arrival, holding a bunch of wild flowers. Looking at Angel’s grandmother as she was let in the door, she told her in a soft voice. “I know it’s not the custom, but I just wanted to give something to Cyn from James, me, and the guys.”

Cyn reached out and took the flowers from Avery. “They’re perfect.”

“I think it’s time, if you’re ready. The guys and it seems all the villagers are gathered near the fire in the centre of square,” Avery told her

Cyn looked at Avery, then Angel’s grandmother, with happy tears in her eyes. “This is it.”

Avery, leading the way, walked down the steps of the small house and waited for them.

Angel’s grandmother stopped Cyn on the first step. Reaching down, she laid a wrinkled hand on Cyn’s flat stomach. “It is good. This little one needs two strong people to raise him. He will be tall and serious like Angel, but will have your spirit of adventure.” Saying that, she moved her hand to Cyn’s back and helped her down the other steps. Cyn was now so shocked it took her a minute to feel the ground under her feet when she reached it.

Avery, who had heard the exchange, walked up to Cyn, who had abruptly stopped. Angel’s grandmother left them to have a moment and continued on to the square. “Well, that explains where Angel got his gift. I know you’re shell-shocked right now. But we have to go. The guys are all waiting and his grandmother is almost there. I guess she is giving you a few moments to absorb the information,” Avery told her as she watched the small woman reach the gathering.

Cyn looked at Avery with disbelief on her face. “What a time to let that drop.” Cyn took the hand not holding the flowers and brought it to her stomach.” Do you think she’s right?”

Avery smiled at Cyn. “If all the stories I hear the guys telling about Angel’s sixth sense are true, I think it’s a safe bet that she’s right. I know you would like a minute or a year to take it all in, but we have to go before they think something is wrong.” Avery reached out and took Cyn’s hand away from her stomach and held it as they walked together to the centre of the village.

Chapter Twenty-Six

As they got closer, Cyn expected to see Angel dressed as she was in the ceremonial dress of his ancestors. But he was standing there in his leather, like the first time she had seen him at the club. He still took her breath away. Just one look at his glowing black eyes as he took in her appearance told Cyn she was doing the right thing. Heaven help both of them if grandma was right and they had a little large wild Angel on the way. Cyn gave a secret smile and walked up next to Angel, letting go of Avery’s hand and taking Angel’s.

Standing beside Angel was James, Clay, Brad, and Grant with Chase, whose attention was caught looking at the women gathered around.

Avery took her place on her side next to Lance, who turned smiling eyes to Cyn and grinned at her, letting her know he was OK with all this.

Angel’s grandmother was standing in front of them with her back to the fire. She raised her hands into the air and the crowd suddenly became silent.

“As the elder of the village, I will make the blessings.”

She walked up to the couple and handed them both a feather, bringing their hands together she bound the feathers that they were holding together with sage.

“As this sage binds the two feathers together, so shall your lives be bound to one other now. This is a sacred vow not to be entered into lightly.”

Looking at them both, she waited for them to acknowledge the solemn moment.

Stepping back she continued. “Have you both picked your sponsors for this ceremony and to guide you into the future?”

Angel spoke up. “We have chosen our sponsors. We chose James, Avery, Clay, Lance, Brad, Grant, and Chase. We know that they will guide us and also protect us and ours in any time of danger, as we would with them.”

Angel’s grandmother looked at all of them as their names were being spoken and each nodded to acknowledge their solemn vow to help the couple.

She turned back to Angel and Cyn. “You have chosen well. Now we begin.”

Looking up at the blanket of stars that had come out she closed her eyes and said, “Tonight the stars are shining for us, Ahtahkakoop.

They are the very same stars that gave their blessing the night of your birth.

They have always protected you like their own angel that they sent to earth to walk amongst us.

They bless you and Cinnamon today again, as your two souls as bound together as one.

Their light will guide your path as you walk together through all the rest of your days.

When they are not with you, their cousin the sun will shine upon you and bring you happiness, always.

Although the rain may try to separate you, and the cold wind may try to keep you apart, they will not be successful.

This is what I see for you, both.

For you are now one heart where there once was two.

May that heart beat long and strong from this life into the next.

” Lowering her arm, she looked at the couple. Turning to Angel, she asked him, “Do you have a token of your love for Cyn?”

Angel looked at his grandmother then at Cyn. A mortified look came over his face with the realization that he had nothing. Everything had happened so fast, he hadn’t thought. He wasn’t prepared for this ceremony.

James at his side stepped forward. “Yes, he has. This is his token.” With that said, James handed a stunned Angel a ring with a large diamond winking in all its brilliance.

Angel looked at the ring in James’s hand, then at his face. “Is this what I think it is?”

“Can’t have the government taking all the spoils of our labour.” He handed the ring to Angel.

Angel took the ring and looked down at it, shaking his head with a grin on his face. “When the hell did you have time to get this done?” James and the guys never let him down.

Clay looked across at him. “Didn’t you like the extra questions my Fed friends asked, making us stay another couple of days?”

Angel turned back to Cyn, his grin turning to a serious expression. “I give Cyn this token of my love and of our adventure so far and for what life will hold for us in the future.” He took Cyn’s hand and gently slid the ring on her finger.

She then turned to Cyn. “Do you have something as a token of your love for Angel?”

Cyn was speechless. She was at a loss. No one had told her about this part of the ceremony. Looking down at the beautiful ring Angel had placed on her finger, she raised a tearstained face to his. “I have nothing. I’m so sorry.”

Angel reached out and held her face with a gentle hand, a look of love shining from his eyes. “You have the best token a man can receive. You are keeping him warm and safe and I can’t wait to meet him.”

Cyn’s tears stopped and she looked at Angel. “You know?”

“Yes, I do, and I couldn’t ask for a better gift.” Leaning his head down, he sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

Angel’s grandmother walked up to both of them as they finished their kiss and enfolded them both in her small arms. “My children, today you have made an old woman happy. Now we celebrate.” She took both of their hands and led them and the group surrounding them to a large, long house that a feast had been set up in.

Between James’s champagne and his grandmother’s dandelion wine, they dined on venison and bannock.

Angel, while he loved his grandmother and all the people gathered celebrating with them, couldn’t wait for it to end. He wanted Cyn all to himself. After following her to California and the worry about her safety, they hadn’t had a moment alone. Then when she was finally safe, they had to deal with the Feds and live in the same apartment the last days with all the guys. He had a serious case of blue balls. All that he could thing of and wanted to do was to sink into Cyn as far as he could and not come out for days. Looking up the table, he could tell that James also wanted to start his honeymoon again. James’s hands and lips always seemed to be on Avery as they sat and listened to the stories some of the elders were telling them.

Finally his grandmother walked down from her place at the head of the table and took both their hands and pulled them to their feet. “I have arranged for a very special hut to be readied on the edge of the village, just for this very special night where you will come together as one.”

Looking over her shoulder, she looked at James sitting with Avery. “And you, Mr. James. As my Angel tells it, you left your woman to help him in finding his and watched his back the whole time. You did this even though you were on your honeymoon. I have arranged a special hut for both you and your woman, also. Please follow me.”

She led both couples to the edge of the village where two huts were waiting for them. His grandmother led him and Cyn to one and opened the door to a welcoming, warm hut that held a king-size bed with a fire roaring in the fireplace. The table in front of the bed was laid out with bread, cheese, and some of his grandmother’s very special cranberry wine. Waving them in, she took Angel’s hand and pulled him down closer to her so she could speak to him and look into his eyes at the same time. “Love her well and always keep her warm and at your side. Now go and join with your soul mate.” “Kinana’skomitin Nikawi, thank you grandmother”
“Wachiya, You are welcome, my angel”.

She gave Angel a kiss on his cheek and left him to join Cyn, already standing in the hut.

Closing the door on them, she turned and led James and Avery to a hut that was decked out the same as Angel’s. Grabbing on to James’s hand she told him, “I will always hold you dear in my heart. You thought enough of my boy to help him in his time of need at a very special time in your own life. I could tell when Angel and Cyn’s secret came out that you were a little envious. But there is no need. You have already been blessed.” Letting go of his hand, she closed the door on Avery’s and James’s stunned faces.

Going back to the long house, she sat with all her son’s large friends and indulged in another glass of wine with a smile on her face.

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Angel paused after his grandmother had left them and just took in the picture that Cyn made in her native ceremonial dress. She had her copper hair up in a messy bun with wisps of it falling around her face. Angel knew he had never seen a more beautiful sight. She made his heart beat faster and want to bust from the love he felt for this woman standing before him. Now he had her alone, he didn’t know what to do first. He wanted to make a meal out of her, but where to start? That choice was taken out of his hands when Cyn walked up to him and pulled his face down to hers and gently kissed him on the lips. As her lip left his, she looked deep into his eyes and told him how much she loved him. Angel picked her up in his arms and carried her to the large bed that took up most of the room in the hut.

Laying her gently on the bed, he followed her down and laid most of his weight on her. He made sure that he wasn’t too heavy, but he wanted her to feel his full body on hers. His cock was busting from his leather pants in its attempt to reach her. Kissing her deeply, he rolled with her so that she was now on top of him. He reached to her back and undid the tie holding her dress together. Cyn helped him after the ties were undone and sat up and pulled the dress over her head.

Angel almost stopped breathing, looking at the perfection of the woman on top of him in all her naked glory. Angel had to taste her. Reaching with both hands, he took her waist and raised her from her sitting position on his stomach. With her legs already spread around his, he brought her up and then back down so his mouth was at her core. She was hot and smelled delicious. Angel knew he would never get tired of her unique scent as his first swipe of her folds burst onto his taste buds. Cyn squealed at this sudden change in position, but her squeal turned into a moan as Angel’s tongue took another swipe through her folds.

He seemed to want to eat her whole as he pushed her down further onto his face and stuck his tongue up into her cunt and seemed to be seeking out any cream that was gathering. Next she felt his tongue he brought it up to her clit, where he worried the bud until Cyn didn’t think she could stand the pleasure. After a few minutes of Angel going back and forth between her clit and seeking out more of her cream by wiggling his tongue up into her as far as he could, she burst into flames. Screaming out her release, Cyn slumped on top of Angel, almost smothering him with her full body now covering his face.

As she came back to her senses, her body still shivering with the aftereffects of the most wonderful orgasm that she had ever had. She could feel his hands letting go of her waist and moving down his body to untie his leather pants. Straightening up, she tried to back her too sedative core off of his tongue that he had kept swiping though her folds even as she shook with the force of her climax. Angel just looked up at her with a twinkle in his eyes and took another swipe as she looked down. Next thing she knew, she was in the air again and Angel held her above his cock. Looking deeply into her eyes, Angel’s eyes held all the love he felt for her as he slowly lowered her down on his cock. With his gentle handling of her and the feeling of his large cock slowly stretching her cunt as it made its way to her very core, she couldn’t help the tears from coming to her eyes. She felt she would burst with the love she felt for this gentle warrior under her.

As Angel bottomed out inside of her, she reached down and put both of her hands on either side of his head. Looking down into his coal-black eyes that were looking back at her, she whispered to him, “Now we are one. Our souls and bodies are joined. I will never let you go.”
