Juniper panted as she sunk further into their bed. Raphael groaned tiredly into her shoulder, bringing his fingers to his mouth and sucking her release off of them.

Her face scrunched up as she felt his cum drying on her stomach.

She was too exhausted to do anything about it, he'd worn her out over the past hour.

"I'll get it," he mumbled and sat up in all of his naked glory.

Humming as she felt as if she could fall asleep at any moment, her eyes peaked open as Raph wiped her stomach with a wash cloth.

Watching him do this she suddenly remembered something she'd been meaning to tell him.

"I have something for us," she moaned while rolling over. He rose a brow, tossing the wash cloth into the hamper before grabbing boxers and a shirt for her.

Motioning for her to put her arms up, she did so and he dressed her.

As soon as her head poked through the hole, she snagged something from her bed side table.

Juniper held up two vials for them.

"What the hell is that?" he looked uninterested while laying down sluggishly.

"Guess."

Raphael groaned into the pillow, poking his head up once more to look at them. They were dark purple and small doses.

"I don't know baby, just tell me," he shut his eyes while wrapping an arm around her sitting form. He dragged her down closer to him, hearing her huff.

"Birth control you idiot."

Raphael's eyes slid open abruptly.

"Where the fuck did you get that?" he sat up now interested.

"Seraphina is a nymph. And very good at basic elixirs such as birth control," she waved it in front of his face. "They both last a month, I didn't want to get the long term ones."

Raphael stared at them hesitantly, "They're not permanent? With no side effects?" He rubbed his jaw in thought.

Juniper's gaze softened, cupping his face and running the pads of her fingers over his cheeks. "No side effects."

He dragged his eyes over her face, his own hand cupping her face.

"So I get to fuck you now?" he smirked as he brought their faces together.

"However you'd like," Juniper whispered teasingly as she grinned naughtily.

"Fine," he held his hand out for his respective elixir.

Soon, they'd both taken their own.

Kissing Juniper hard, he savored her taste.

Pressing her hands to his shoulder, she moaned quietly while pulling away. "We can test it out later. I'm tired," she slumped back into the bed.

Raphael sighed with a small frown tugging at his lips, reluctantly he laid atop of her as always with his head on her chest. Juniper was lucky she didn't suffocate every night.

"Why didn't you tell me like three hours ago," the berserker whined a little.

"Because you didn't even give me a chance!" She laughed a little at how dejected he sounded.

"Your dick was in my mouth too soon," she snickered.

"I'm just an eager mate," he admitted sheepishly.

"Yeah okay," she rolled her eyes. "Go to bed."

Her nimble fingers came to comb through his hair as always, he huffed a little but conceded.

The next day, Raphael was kissing her goodbye multiple times in the doorway.

In their kitchen, Warren and Seraphina were staying to keep her company.

"My phone," he kissed her. "Will be on." His lips captured her bottom one.

Raphael was leaving for the day and some of the night, meeting with a larger group of berserkers to discuss future plans. All of them were made aware of the covens threats without a direct revelation to Juniper and why exactly they wanted to kill her.

Normally, he'd bring her with him but since it was an obnoxious amount of powerful berserkers he felt more comfortable leaving her at home. The home that no one knew the location of, where she was safe.

He was going to start planning with them a direct attack on the coven once they get more locational information from the man they baited. Raphael just had to set things in motion.

"Call me please," he mumbled against her mouth before nipping her lip.

All Juniper could do was nod since he was constantly stealing her words. He'd informed her that two guards were around the house while he was gone until late tonight.

"Babe," she gasped while almost out of breath.

He hummed in acknowledgment, his tongue brushing her own.

"You have to l-leave," she managed to get out as his hands wandered her body. His grip tightened on her ass while pushing his thigh into the apex of her legs.

Groaning lowly, he only pulled her closer.

"Love you," she managed to pull away enough to say.

He paused from his devouring and rest his forehead against her own, their noses brushing against one another's.

Sighing, his minty breath fanned her face. "I love you too."

Sparing him a smile, he finally pulled away a little.

Grabbing a small duffel bag, he gripped her hip.

"I'm serious about calling. I'll flip my shit if you don't by dinner."

"You won't be flipping any shit- go now before you cause trouble."

Raphael grumbled while glaring at her as she leaned against the door as he stepped out.

"I'm the boss I do what I want," he leaned forward and pressed one last hard kiss onto her plush lips before instructing her to lock the door.

Juniper eyed him one more time before nodding, doing as she was told as he talked to the guards.

She scratched her head while coming back to her friends, where Warren was trying to hide his smile. Seraphina didn't hide anything while staring at Juniper with an eager grin and clasped hands.

"Warren our Juni is in love," the nymph swooned.

Warren snickered as he pet Bear, wiggling his brows at Juniper.

"And now she has birth control so he can pump his love juice in her."

Both girls faces soured.

"Never ever mention Raphael and love juice in the same sentence ever again. Like ever. I will tell him."

Warren paled, "No. No, never that please never that."

Juniper smirked a little and slung her arm around Seraphina, "But he's right you did save Raph from long term blue balls. He should give you an award or something."

"I'd like to sleep at night thinking that the Saint himself has never once thought about me in his life. Let me live in my happy place, in peace please."

Juniper shrugged, bending to find leftovers for herself.

"We're all settling down now War," Juniper mumbled while picking up a noodle from the container.

"When're you gonna catch up?" Her brows rose up expectantly.

"When my mate decides to get their ass over here," he rest his chin on his hand. "For now I'm happy living the bachelor life with my favorite girls."

Juniper felt herself smile despite herself, both Seraphina and her hugging either side of him.

"Me and Phoenix were talking about marriage," Seraphina blurted while they were all squished in a hug.

Warren and Juniper both almost broke their necks to look at her with wide eyes.

"And?" Juniper urged for an answer.

"Well it's because you and Raph got to mark each other and it got Phoenix thinking about having a way to claim one another. He said his berserker was going crazy over it," she felt her face flush. "And I really liked the idea, obviously not any time soon. But I was thinking Warren could walk me down the aisle."

The hounds eyes were wide, his jaw dropping.

"Really?" his voice cracked. Juniper watched the two with a happy gleam in her eye.

"Of course," Seraphina's eyes watered. She sniffled with a smile, "I don't know anybody other than you and Juni who took care of me for so long. Phoenix says you guys spoiled me," she giggled while wiping at her happy tears.

"He'd better keep spoiling you too," Juniper crossed her arms as Warren and Seraphina hugged.

"I'd be honored, Sera," Warren husked gratefully.

"When's he getting down on a knee?" Juniper rubbed the nymphs shoulders as she was quick to get emotional.

"Oh please," Seraphina waved her hand with a small smile. "We don't need all that. Just a ceremony with important people. Phoenix was more focused on the ring on my finger part," she wiggled her hand at them.

The nymph pointed to the demoness. "Maid of honor?"

"I'd be angry if it was anyone else," Junioer smirked. "You guys are really serious huh?"

"As serious as we can be, he has so many plans for us and it just makes me..." she trailed off to squeal. The pretty nymph jumped up and down.

Juniper chuckled, feeling Bear nudge between her legs. She cooed at him as the other two spoke.

Scratching under his chin, Juniper peered down at him. He rocked back and forth on his paws anxiously, eyes darting back to the windows.

"What's wrong?" the demoness furrowed her brow. She glanced around in confusion.

"He's probably pissed there's other berserkers around the house guarding," Warren noted as him and Seraphina looked at something on his phone.

"You miss daddy?" Juniper whispered while scratching the large dog comfortingly. "It's okay," she reassured. "He'll be back soon and you can annoy him all you want."

Her blue curls fell down as she peered at the dog between her legs who was finally settling down.

Behind her, Warren opened the fridge and suddenly exclaimed.

"Yuck! You're a green juice drinker? Since when?" he balked while gagging dramatically.

Juniper looked over to see him holding up a container of green vegetable juice, her own face scrunched up.

"Shut up its Raphael's. He's a health freak, don't touch it."

Warren mumbled mockingly, grabbing a soda instead.

Within the next hour, they were all sat around the table having random conversation.

Once again, Bear was acting up. He began snarling lowly and Juniper's eyes widened. Tensing a little, she watched him dart to the door while barking at it.

"That's not normal," she mumbled to herself while pushing back in her chair. Warren stopped what he was saying, glancing at her. Seraphina cocked her head in confusion.

"What?" The nymph frowned while her friend stood up.

"Something's wrong," Juniper spoke quietly.

"Are you sure? I mean, there are guards outside. Bear could just be startled."

"No, no, something's wrong I can feel it."

Juniper searched for where she left her phone. "Juni I think-"

"No. No, something feels off. Bear doesn't just freak out," she tried calling for her dog to come back.

Warren and Seraphina both relented, following Juniper out into the hall. Bear was backing up slowly from door.

"Where are the guards?" Seraphina asked while crossing her arms tightly. Warren went to check his phone and just as the door was busted open.

Everyone shrieked and jolted back as unfamiliar men ran through the door.

"Fuck!" Warren yelled and Bear immediately attacked the first soldier flooding in. Juniper yelled in surprise and reached for the nearest thing as Warren began heating his body up while shoving Seraphina behind him.

Bear tore into someone's stomach, the man screamed in pain as his flesh was ripped open.

Suddenly a gun shot went off and a cry from Bear rang out. Juniper's face dropped and time slowed as she saw her dog get shot, she saw the bullet hit his shoulder as he fell.

Juniper cried out- her legs giving out, Warren wrapping an arm around her and practically throwing her back into the kitchen. Flames spewing from his fist, he kept the intruders farther away. He couldn't go all out with the two women right behind him.

Seraphina snagged a pan and smacked a man trying to grab her, Juniper snatched it and bashed the man's head in with it.

"Fuck you!" the demoness's eyes were clouding with tears. "You shot my fucking dog!" She went to hit him again only to be dragged away as they were cornered.

Just as Warren began shifting into his demon with flames pouring from his body, a dart pierced his neck. Immediately his shift was halted as his legs went weak, his entire body going cold.

"Warren!" Seraphina went to catch him.

Juniper held up a gun left in one of the drawers, swiftly shooting the closest men. Watching two of them get hit, she pushed herself to stand over her friends.

"Run!" Warren writhed as his skin seered from whatever they injected him with. "Run Juniper!"

"Take a step back," Juniper kept the gun trained on one of the five men left. "Let's- Let's talk about this before I put a bullet in one of your brains."

"No can do sweetheart," one of them sneered. "We've got guns trained on all three of you. You've got nowhere to go."

"Just take me!" Juniper snarled as tears streaked down her face.

"We've got orders to follow. We take you three to a second location and await instructions," a tan brunette sneered. "You're not in charge."

"I assume you're the shadow demon?" he looked between the two women before focusing on the bluenette.

Neither spoke up, "Whatever. We can get it out the hard way."

Before she could react, the rifle was whipped across her face. Juniper crumbled onto Warren who was completely out of it. Seraphina who sobbed was hit across the head.
