Chapter Twelve Thalina He moved closer, his eyes getting softer, more calm than they had ever been. The tension that had been burning between us seemed to melt into something deeper, something more intimate, something irresistible. He studied me for some minutes, his gaze piercing into mine but tender, making me feel exposed in ways I’d never been before. "Why?" he asked in a very low and gentle voice. "Men must have thrown themselves at you. I’m sure of that.” I swallowed the lump in my throat, shaking my head gently. "I didn’t want them," I replied, my voice shaky. He tilted his head slightly, curiosity glinting in his eyes. "What have you been doing all these years, then?" He raised my head with a finger under my jaw, and when our eyes met, a gentle smile curled up his lips. He traced the contours of my face with his fingers, my legs shaking under his touch. “You’re too hot… too naughty to be a virgin. What have you been doing?” I hesitated for a bit, my breaths hot a
Chapter Thirteen Thalina His hands dropped to my waist, and in one quick motion, he pulled my skirt down along with my wet panties. “Step out.” He ordered, and I slowly step out of it. The way he looked at me with so much admiration, so much longing, ignited a flood of heat between my thighs. He lifted me up by my waist effortlessly, as though I weighed nothing as he deposited me on the bed. “Don’t move!” He ordered and it was as though his words froze me up in the same position. I didn’t move. A smirk danced at the corner of his lips as he stepped back. I watched as he unbuttoned his shirt gently, each move sending cold shiver down my spine, one which ran down to push more wetness down my core. He pulled off his shirt and tossed it onto the plush couch that was in the room. Then, he went on to his pants, dropping it to his legs and stepping out of it, leaving him with just his shorts that showed the perfect outline of his enormous cock. My breat
Chapter Fouteen Thalina His grip on my throat tightened just, making my breath hitch. I gasped as the sensation sent a thrill racing through me, mixing with the pleasure coursing through my body from his relentless pace. “You’re mine now,” he repeated, his voice dripping with possession. Each word was punctuated by a deep thrust that left me breathless, his cock pushing into me with a force that made my entire body quake. It felt really great to hear someone claim me. Fenris treated me like shit, like I didn’t matter, but this man… he just said I was his, and that was the best feeling ever. “I’ll keep you as long as I want.” He continued, his breaths sharp and heavy as he continued to pound hard and deep into me, as though he was drilling a hole inside of me. I didn’t resist; I couldn’t. I nodded, moaning softly as my fingers dug into his shoulders, clinging to him for my dear life. He was doing to my body things I never thought anyone could do. The way he moved inside
Chapter Fifteen Thalina I woke up to the empty side of the bed, the warmth from Professor Maverick’s body long gone, now replaced by the cool touch of the fluffy sheets and the faint scent of him. I blinked, trying to steady my racing thoughts, but the images from few hours ago kept flooding back—the way he’d looked at me, the way he’d taken me with such force, passion, and control. I had never experienced anything like it. It was addictive, terrifying, and exhilarating all at once. But now, he was gone. I turned my head slowly, scanning the room, my heart sinking a little. Where had he gone? Why would he leave without saying anything? I pulled the sheets around me, trying to suppress the unease building up inside of me. My mind wandered back to the countless fantasies I had indulged in about him over the last few days. I never thought they would become a reality, and now that they had, it felt like something had shifted in me, something I never knew existed. I paused,
Chapter Sixteen Thalina My hand shook when I held his hand, and I once again gave this decision of mine another thought, but when my eyes fell on the outline in his shorts again, every restricted thoughts I had disappeared, replaced by an hunger I couldn’t control. He led me over to the large bed in the center of the room. My body hummed with nervous anticipation as he positioned me there, turning me to face him. “What is your best color?” He asked. I was mute for minutes, wondering what my best color has got to do with him pleasuring me. “Hmm…” I stared at him, unsure of what to say. I didn’t really have a best color. My eyes scanned through the room, looking for the color that would catch my eyes. “Red!” “Perfect.” He smiled. “That will be your safe word. When you want me to stop, you say the word. Okay?” I nodded at him. “And one more thing,” he said, his voice back to that steady, calm dominance that left me at his mercy. “You might be scared, Thalina, but I kn
Chapter Seventeen Thalina Professor Maverick’s hands slid over my wrists as he gently released the cuffs that held me in place. My body was still trembling from the intensity of our last round, but his gaze told me he was far from being done with me, and my trembling body still wanted more of him. "Get on the bed," he commanded, his voice as steady and dominant as ever, though now laced with a quiet intensity that sent shivers down my spine. I did as he said, moving slowly, my legs still shaking from the effect of his hard thrusts. The soft mattress beneath me felt like a safe haven for a moment as I laid on the bed, but I knew it wouldn’t last. Professor Maverick wasn’t the kind of man to let me rest easily, especially not when we were in this room where held so much power and control over me. He gets to decide what will happen, and what he will do to me, which makes it more fun and exciting. I could only imagine what he was going to do next, but I couldn’t really
Chapter Eighteen Talon Maverick The best part of every sexual encounter I’ve had was watching women struggle to walk afterward. It was the usual outcome—no woman could walk after I was done with her. I don’t go easy on them, that’s not who I am. I take them with the force I want, watching their legs wobble as they struggle to move, and savoring every moment. I didn’t care if they fell or crawled—it was none of my business. But I couldn’t let the same thing happen with Thalina. I tried to look away, to distract myself with other thoughts so I wouldn’t break another one of my rules, but I did anyway. I rushed to her, holding her up before she could fall. Looking at her so closely now, she was stunning. God, it wasn’t just her body—it was her face. She was a beauty to behold. I could swear she was the most beautiful woman I had seen if I never saw Seraphina. I brushed the thoughts off and carried her to the bathroom, watching how her body lay limp in my arms, completely spe
Chapter Nineteen Talon Maverick One more thing, Thalina was the first woman I’d fuck without imagining it was Seraphina I was fucking. To me, Thalina was just Thalina, nothing more, and it was the first. All my life, I had been stuck with Seraphina. Maybe, just maybe I could push her to my past by using Thalina. I got to my room and took a quick bath, dressing in a sharp black suit, I took one last look in the mirror. The image reflected back at me was one of power, authority, and control—exactly how I liked it. But no matter how much I tried to focus on the day ahead, Thalina’s face, her body, and the way she moaned for me crept into my mind. “Get it together, Talon!” I told myself. I wasn’t supposed to fuck her again, yet here I was, obsessed with her after only one day together. As I headed downstairs, I stopped the head maid. “Make sure Thalina’s comfortable when she wakes up,” I instructed her. “She’s going to be coming more often. You know what to do.” Normally
Chapter Twenty-five Thalina I matched to the long table like a royal, I took my seat, my eyes scanning through the luxurious dishes beautifully laid out in front of me. It was like those kind of presentations made by professional chefs that you only see in TV shows. Every dish on the plate looked too beautiful to eat, but I wasn’t going to waste this opportunity. What if it was going to be just this once? I took my chance. I started slowly, savoring each bite, making sure I tasted every dish, from the savory meats, the sea foods, to the delicate pastries. The flavors were incredible and juicy, so rich and indulgent. I had never tasted anything like that. I continued until I was completely full and no longer had space for any other food, feeling like I had experienced a small piece of heaven. The flavors were incredible—juicy, rich, indulgent. Each bite was like something out of a dream. I had never tasted anything so decadent in my life. By the time I finis
Chapter Twenty-four Thalina I swirled around in the bed; it felt so relaxing and calm, like a fish that had been confined in a small tank finally being released into the ocean. The coolness was a stark contrast to the soreness that radiated from my legs every few minutes. My eyes flickered open, one after the other. I’d been awake for a while, but I couldn’t bring myself to leave the bed—it felt like a comfort zone I didn’t want to abandon. When was the last time I had slept this well? Maybe before my mother’s death. Everything turned sour after my stepmother and stepsister moved in. I was forced into a smaller room with a bed I could barely fit in, while Ember took my old room. Father never complained. He said I was older and had to sacrifice for my sister. Well, I had sacrificed nearly everything—my room, my clothes, my happiness, my comfort, and even that bastard I once called my mate. Lying here now, it felt like all those worries and problems had been lifted, even if
Chapter Twenty-three Talon Maverick My heart pounded wildly in my chest, each of my breaths coming in ragged gasps as I ran. Sweat dripped down my skin, cold against the heat burning inside me, my legs carrying me as fast as they could, but not as fast as I needed them to be. And no matter how hard I pushed, no matter how fast I moved, I couldn’t escape the darkness chasing me. It swirled around me, suffocating, heavy, aiming to consume me whole. And it was her. The darkness was her. She was faceless, but has an aura that makes my heart leap into my throat. Sometimes it was in the forest, sometimes it was in an unknown place, being chased by a faceless woman with different kinds of weapons. This time, it was inside the same castle I believed I had power and control over, the usual faceless beast chasing me with a knife that has a sharpened edge that glowed under the lights. I ran through the corner and corridors of the castle, hoping to find a way out soon, but as I ran tow
Chapter Twenty-two Talon Maverick “Watch and learn.” I managed to say, before my eyes flickered close. But instead of the usual rush of pleasure and the floating waves of excitement that coursed through my body whenever I have my cock in the mouth of these whores, all I could see was Thalina, and all I could feel was her presence. It was like she was there with me. I opened my eyes again, only to see the courtesans in front of me, one moving her hand through my chest and trailing invisible lines through my body, while the other kept moving her head, popping and pushing my cock in and out of her mouth with so much strength and vigor, yet, I couldn’t feel a thing. I closed my eyes again and all I saw was her—Thalina. That day in my office came rushing back, vivid and intense, replaying again, like she was right here with me, like it was happening once again. Even though these women were still on their knees, doing exactly what I’d ordered, all I could think about was her. W
Chapter Twenty-one Talon Maverick It just couldn’t be! There must be something this damn soothsayer wasn’t doing right. I felt the rage swell inside me, burning like wildfire. Before I could stop myself, I surged forward, gripping the old man by his neck and slamming him against the wall. "You think I gave you all this royal treatment, all this time, just for you to tell me there's no way out?" My voice came out in a low, dangerous growl. I could feel my wolf stir, the darkness of the curse feeding into my anger. "Do you expect me to live like this forever? Do you expect me to rule this kingdom cursed, without a Luna, without an heir?" The soothsayer gasped, his eyes wide with fear, clawing at my hand as I held him in place. He was frail, weaker than I realized, and that weakness only fueled my frustration. He should have been smarter, stronger—he should have had the answer I needed. “Please, my lord,” he croaked. “I… I will find a way. I just need more time!” I released
Chapter Twenty Talon Maverick “Arguing with your wolf again?” The familiar voice that always managed to calm my nerves echoed in my ears. I turned just in time for her to crash into me. “Brother!” Vaelora Maed Ashford, my seventeen-year-old younger sister. When I was younger, I used to wonder why the age gap between us was so wide. Mother would always say Vael was conceived when they hadn’t planned for another child. At first, I thought she was too much to handle, but now she was my solace. I had no worries whenever she was around. “I missed you, brother. Why won’t you let me into your estate?” she whined, adjusting her arms around my neck. “I was away from the castle on business, and it could’ve been dangerous. I didn’t want to put anyone in danger…” “What could be dangerous?” Mother joined us, her voice laced with suspicion. “Are you hiding something from us?” I set Vael down and moved to Mother’s side. “Of course not. I have nothing to hide from you,” I replied with
