YenniferI stared unseeing at the deck of tarot cards on the small table in front of me.Today was, thankfully, a rather quite day. Which didn’t happen very often.There had only been one appointment scheduled for this morning and I just finished up with her. The rest of the day was open to walk-ins. Based on the number of people, or lack thereof, on the streets outside, it would be a rather calm day.I had to wonder, due to the attacks and unnamed criminal behind them, if we would see a decrease in tourists until this was resolved.Last night had been rough. I hadn’t gotten much sleep. Not only had I gone to bed really late, my dreams were dark and foreboding. Though, thankfully, I hadn’t dreamt of my parents’ murder.“How are you doing, pretty lady?” Pete asked, appearing in the doorway. He leaned against the doorjamb, crossing his arms. While he looked relaxed, I could see the strain in his eyes.“I’m doing alright. Tired. Didn’t sleep for shit last night. What about you?”He shrugg
Yennifer I jerked out of Nikolai’s spell. How had I lost my sense of awareness? I’d momentarily forgotten I was at work, with Pete staring at us the entire time.I immediately dropped my gaze and put distance between the bewitching Nikolai and I, ashamed at how I acted. “You should head out,” Pete suggested, looking straight at Nikolai. His words werent necessarily unkind but there was an undercurrent to them that I didn't understand.I would have to ask Pete if he knew Nikolai personally. Based off of their interactions, it seemed they knew one another. Before Nikolai could reply, I spoke up. “No.” I stated firmly, looking at Pete with a ‘what the heck are you doing’ look. He hadn’t ever been this aggressive with any of my other love interests when they swung by the shop. “You can stay, if you would like?” I turned to Nikolai. I wanted the chance to get to know him better. He had made the effort to stop by and bring me a gift, it only seemed fair to ask him to stay for lunch. Thou
Yennifer “Don’t threaten me with a good time, lapochka.” Nikolai’s growled response hit me in all the right places. My heart leapt in anticipation while my body responding immediately. The wonton passion swamping me was intenser than anything I had ever felt before. Which was incomprehensible. I knew my libido was high. I knew what I liked, even if I didn’t necessarily say the quiet parts out loud. I wasn’t sure what response I had been expecting from Nikolai, but it wasn’t that. With Ron, and my previous partners, they hadn’t been able to handle this kind of foreplay, even though it turned me on like nothing else could. Nikolai, however, understood the assignment. He didn’t wait. Grabbing both of my wrists, he pulled them above my head. Holding both of them in one of his hands, he dropped his other hand to my waist and walked me backwards with purpose until my back was pressed firmly against the wall. His lips descended on mine in a fiery kiss that was toe curling. With my
YenniferHis mouth descended on me with a vengeance. My legs were instantly weak and it took effort not to crumble at the intense pleasure coursing through my veins. Passionate heat coursed through me in waves at the sensational onslaught hijacking my mind and body.His tongue licked and lavished my freshly waxed pussy. I loved how I could feel the rough stubble on his face against my soft sex. The roughness of his tongue moving from slit to clit and back down again in a tantalizing pattern had my eyes nearly rolling into the back of my head. I gripped the edge of the counter hard enough my knuckles turned white.It was such an erotic feeling.His arms tightened around my thighs, his hands gripping my ass cheeks before gently slapping each one. Then, he fiercely pulled me flush against his mouth as he shook his head, scraping that stubble over the most sensitive parts of myself. I gasped at the sensations rocketing through my body. No one had ever eaten me out like this before. It had
YenniferI tried not to overthink how Nikolai knew where I worked.He didn't seem like a stalker, but I was a little uneasy about it.I didn't say anything to Pete, though I did ask him if he and Nikolai knew each other. Pete only said they were acquaintances. He wouldn’t say anything more on the subject, so I dropped it.The rest of the week went by without incident. The businesses were rather quiet. I had my regular clientele come in and a decent number of walk-ins, but it was noticeably slower.Friday afternoon, when I was on my lunch break, Ron called me.“Hello.” I answered, clipped. I was still upset about what happened earlier in the week.“Hi Yen,” Ron greeted sweetly, and I knew he was going to try to sweet talk me into forgiving him for what happened earlier this week.“What can I do for you?” I asked, not really wanting to talk with him right now. I wasn’t in the mood for any of this. I was tired, grumpy and the nausea hadn’t eased at all today. All I really wanted to do was
Yennifer“So what’s the history between you and Nikolai?” I asked Pete the next day at lunch.His face pinched sourly. “Not much. Just acquaintances.” Was his short, and annoying reply.I wasn’t satisfied with that answer and knew there was more. Though, I wasn’t sure if prying was the right thing to do. So I decided to go with a different question. “Do I have to worry about him hurting me?”“No. Not intentionally,” Pete grumbled.“Why do you dislike him so much?”Pete sighed loudly, as if he was frustrated by this conversation, and pushed his half eaten food away. I wanted to feel bad, but I wanted to know what the beef was between these two more. It wouldn’t do for a best friend of mine to clash with a potential love interest.He leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms and held my gaze as he contemplated his answer. “The best way I can describe it is: we are from different sides of the track.”“And who’s from the wrong side?” I teased, though genuinely curious.“That depends on w
NikolaiI wasn’t all that enthusiastic about Yen going out on a date with her ex.The man had broken her in more ways than she was willing to admit to. And, while he did have an eye for fashion, I could tell the dress wasn’t something Yen would have picked out for herself. Yes, she looked stunning in that dress, however Ron should have taken her preferences into account. He knew she wouldn’t feel comfortable in that dress. He knew she would feel far more vulnerable too, which was probably part of his scheme.I anxiously waited at the door for several minutes, trying to decide on what I should do before I made the rash decision to follow them. I needed eyes on her to know she was okay. I just had this gut feeling Ron was up to something.YenniferThe first few minutes of the ride started out well. We made idle chit-chat before the awkward silence descended on us after we ran out of ‘safe’ topics to talk about.Thankfully, Ron turned on some music.I was thankful when we arrived at the
Yennifer“Yen, get back inside!” Ron ordered, following me out.“Leave me alone!” I threw back over my shoulder, marching away.“You are insufferable, woman! Do you know how embarrassed and ashamed I am right now because of you?”I tried not to let his words affect me, but they were starting to wear me down.Was I the problem?“I bought you a beautiful dress, took you out to a fantastic upscale restaurant, and this is how you repay me!? By throwing a temper tantrum over the food?”“It’s not the food that is the issue!” I snapped back, spinning around to face him. The audacity of this man!“It absolutely is!” He snapped back. “I was thinking about you and the child! You have to think about what you eat, Yen. From now until you give birth! You have to be healthy and strong for our child! And everyone in their right mind can take one look at you and know you aren’t healthy. Look at you!” he exclaimed, his gaze moving down my body almost in disgust. “You’re fat Yen. You aren’t eating righ
NikolaiI dutifully stayed there, nuzzling her and allowing her the space she needed to get it all out of her system. It took a good long while before her cries died down. I felt the exhaustion wash over her like a tidal wave and smelt the adrenaline crash. Her body slowly went limp as she drifted off into an exhausted slumber, leaning on the tub for support.I would wake her at some point, however right now all she needed was the chance to allow her mind to calm down and heal, and to help move past whatever demons were riding her hard. Only time could allow that to happen. And sleep would be more beneficial than anything else right now. I was afraid if I woke her up and tried to get her to bed, she would remain awake and allow her mind to continue to spiral.Shifting my body ever so carefully, I started softly licking at the open wounds that were still seeping on her thighs. The taste of her on my tongue was euphoric and made me w
*Trigger warning: This chapter contains a self harm scene. Readers be advised.*NikolaiI walked my Escalade, unsure if Yen would watch me or not.Aaron had been hiding in the far back of the vehicle so he could drive away and make it look like I had left, while I raced time to get back inside before Yen freaked out. It was hard playing both parts of a supportive baby daddy and a loyal wolf dog to the same woman.I also had Dimitri on standby. Due to his relation to me, we had similar colorings and he could pass off as Ragnar in a pinch if Yen had asked me to stay.All these necessary precautions taken because I had to keep Yen as far out of reach of the immortal world as possible. Plus, we weren’t ready for that revelation in our relationship yet.At least it was quiet out on the town tonight. The few wolves I had scouring the streets hadn’t reported anything being out of the ordin
YenniferThe cogs in Ron’s mind turned before they clicked. “You’re the one-night stand? The other possible baby daddy?” He sounded incredulous, as if he couldn’t believe it.“Yes.” Was Nikolai’s rather aggressive, one word response.A multitude of emotions ran across Ron’s face before he turned up his nose, as he usually did when he was beat in an argument, and slammed his indifferent mask in place. Glowering past Nikolai to me he opened his mouth to speak. Before any words could come out, Nikolai moved so Ron’s view of me was blocked. “If you have something to say, you say it to me.”The threat was there, and while I should have been turned off by it, I wasn’t.Ron seemed to chew on his words before saying, “I’ll call you later, Yen.” And with that, he stalked off, got into his vehicle and sped away.There was a moment where Nikolai kept his back turned to me after Ron had taken off and I couldn’t help but wonder if he was contemplating his life’s choices. Seeing as how trouble kept
