I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my body that was still tingling from being so close to Duke and trying to see myself through his eyes, to see what it was he saw me. Goddess knew I couldn't see a thing about myself that would appeal to any male, let alone one who was as chiselled and hard as Duke.
I suppose my skin was quite creamy. I ran the back of my fingers along my ribcage and over to the top of my lace panties. It felt quite soft. Is this what Duke felt when I pressed myself against him?
I brought my hands up and cupped my tits, feeling an unfamiliar but altogether appealing sensation shoot through me. My hands could barely hold them, they were definitely more than enough for Duke's huge palms.
I had heard the girls giggling at school in so many conversations that I had never been invited to join. Some of them had said that their boyfriends had placed their face against their chest, almost smothering themselves in their girlfriend's tits. Would D
I had to pull over as the memories overwhelmed me. It was all I could do to catch my breath, remembering all the techniques I had learned over the years to slow down my breathing and concentrate on letting go of the anger and resentment.It wasn’t easy though. All I could think about was the way that I had been betrayed, the way that I had felt when Duke had looked at me with such disgust, anger and worst of all, disappointment.I had pinned so many of my hopes on him, had seen him as a lifeline, a way out of a shitty household that had wished nothing but pain and misery on me and in my darkest hour, Duke had abandoned me, leaving me as a shell of my former myself.I had left that night, not thinking about what I was throwing into a suitcase, I just grabbed the things that were closest and I walked out. No one tried to stop me. Noone came looking for me. I think that’s what hurt the most.I had genuinely thought that when the anger died down a
Duke grabbed hold of my ass, pulling me tight against him, letting me know exactly what effect I had on him and that this time, unlike all those years ago, he wasn’t going to hold back. As he began to walk backwards, I wrapped my arms around his neck, caught up in the moment, unable to make sense of what was happening. All I knew was that I didn't want this to stop. After all this time, I needed more. So much more"What are you waiting for?" I whispered against his lips, running my tongue along them and placing kisses along his jaw, loving the way his stubble felt so rough under my mouth.He backed me up some more until I felt the cool wall against my back. "You should know better than to play with the big, bad wolf, Grace" he teased, his hands slipping under my top, softly stroking against my stomach as they made their way further up my body.My head dropped back, thrusting my chest forward in delight, desperate to feel his hands on me"You don't s
I sensed the change in Grace the minute I saw her enter the kitchen. Gone was the playful look in her eye that had been so full of lust and wonder at what we had just done and what remained was so cold and full of ice that it was almost like a slap in the face. She had shut down on me, closed the shutters so that I couldn't enter any further.I don't know why, but it pissed me off. I had thought we had been making progress, I had felt the way her wolf had been reaching out to mine the entire time and yet she had slammed the door shut for any further progress.A feeling of shame and guilt washed over me as soon as I thought that. I was being unfair. I had also felt the way she had reacted to me. The sheer amazement and innocence that revealed far more than any of her words could have done. It didn't take a genius to work out that she hadn't been touched like that before. I didn't know whether or not she was a virgin or just had a string of bad lovers but something told
Alone in this house, I had the chance to reflect. I had been a prized bitch to Duke. He hadn’t deserved what I had screamed at him and I hadn’t done myself any favours.I looked at the sofa and saw the telltale signs that it had been used as a bed - the way the cushions had been propped up against the arm, the dint in the middle from the body that was too large to comfortably fit on there. It seemed Duke wasn’t able to face the upstairs bedrooms where so much had happened either.It left me with no choice. I couldn’t stay in my room, not after what came to mind earlier so it left me with one other choice. I would stay in the guest room where it had all began, where the memories were happier, if not just as painful.As soon as I climbed into the soft bed, the memories washed over me, as I knew they would. This time I welcomed them, my own personal punishment. A reminder to myself of why this would never have worked.****************
There she was, curled up in a tiny ball of golden fluff, sleeping without a care in the world. My hand reached out to touch her but stopped short, hovering over her shiny fur.She was magnificent. I knew Grace had struggled growing up not knowing her wolf, feeling rejected but just this small look at her told me she was worth the wait.The power radiated off her, emitting a warning of death and destruction to all those who crossed her.She whinnied softly in her sleep and I placed my hand under her snout, letting her catch on to my scent to assure her I was still around and watched with amazement as she settled back to sleep immediately.She was a wolf that would do any Alpha proud. She may be small but she was solid muscle. Just like Grace had become. Why was she so determined to hide her from me? Was she scared of my rejection? Or worse, did her wolf now hate me? Had I ruined our chances of bonding?Her wolf had only appeared once mine was around
Grace,” Stephen murmured. If I had thought his tone was cold, it was nothing compared to the shimmering veins of ice in his eyes, rooting me to the spot as my childhood nerves came flooding backI should have known he would still be here. It wasn't uncommon for ALphas to step down from their role, allowing their sons to ascend earlier than planned in order to keep the strongest wolves at the top - this would serve as a warning to other packs. We were lead by the strongest, but if by some stretch of the imagination Duke was to be defeated, Stephen was still here, ready to take his place if Duke did not have sons old enough. In the meantime, Stephen would act as a rule enforcer, making sure the pack lived in relative peaceHa. As if Stephen had ever wanted peace. He wanted to rule with an iron fist. I felt my anger resurface once again and so I straightened my spine with pride. I was better than him, he would not get the satisfaction of seeing me crumble&ld
Where did you learn to dance like that?" he breathed, his voice coming across thick with lust. I swallowed hard, my eyes stuck in a rhythm of drifting down to the huge bulge in his trousers and back to his face with evident nerves. This is what I had been aiming for, wasn't it? I had wanted to toy with the alpha.I just had no idea he would be so... so... I don't even know. I was overwhelmed, seeing the evidence of his arousal, the open, wild want in his eyes as he pinned me to the spot with his piercing gaze. I swallowed again, my tongue darting out to wet my lips that had suddenly grown dry. Duke followed my actions causing a dart of desire to hit me, my pussy clenching as the first waves of passion began to take over me."Grace?" he repeated, standing in front of me now, reaching out to grab a lock of my hair, twisting it around his fingers."I... the other warriors..." I paused again, once more wetting my lips. I couldn't believe that was my voice, it sounde
How did Duke manage to do this to me? Despite my resolve not to ever visit my father during my stay here, I soon found myself freshly showered, in clean clothes and stood outside my dad's room.I took a deep breath to steady my breathing, feeling the lightheadedness and sweaty palms that indicated the beginning of a panic and attack and turned my frantic eyes in Duke's direction"I don't know if I can do this - I know we promised not to talk about it, I know, but I can't walk in there, not after everything that happened!" My arms were flailing wildly as I spoke, my words coming out in a jumbled mess.Duke grabbed my hands and placed them on his chest, allowing me to feel his strong, steady heartbeat beneath his clothes. "Breath, Grace. I'm right here. I promise you, I'm not going anywhere. We'll do this together."I closed my eyes and took a moment, timing my breathing based on his, following the rise and fall of his chest. My head was ready to explode, m
