It was two days before I'd see him again. Looking freshly washed and smiling cheerfully as he came down the stairs. Helmet under his arm. Silver chain mail hanging over a beige tunic and black leather pants.
Thankfully he had sent a maid early this morning to bathe me with damp cloths. I’d tried ineffectually to try to talk to her numerous times, but she’d stared through me as if not even seeing me. Refusing to utter even one word in answer to my bombardment of questions.
Not even when I threatened to have her beheaded. Reminding her I was the queen of Enderon.
She’d said nothing. Refusing to relent.
But at least I was as clean as I could be. My hair freshly soaped and scented with rose oil. I’d been thankful for the small concession until I heard his step on the stairs.
He had me washed for his pleasure.
I wished now that I could’ve toppled the bowl the maid had brought down. I should’ve known!
He was whist
Alaric was right. I was already wet for him, but my pride demanded I not admit that my foolish body was reacting even though I didn't want it to. Damn him. "Alaric, stop." I whispered it so weakly, even though I knew I didn't mean it. He laughed. "That's not what you want, is it?" He purred against my cheek. Making goosebumps rise on every inch of my flesh. Making bits of fur push at my pores trying to rise. A primal growl erupted from my throat. And I felt the tingling behind my eyes that told me they were changing to yellow. Suddenly every shadow in the black dungeon came to life. Blooming into hazy shapes I could now identify. "Are you ready to be treated like a true female, rather than a princess trying to demand what she wants?" He released my body, and I felt a chilly sense of loss combined with a great sense of relief. My leg dropped back down, and he took a step back. I'd withstood this onslau
I’d long ago vowed to never be commanded by any male. Not after they’d all owned me. Treated me like a hole to please them and nothing more. I’d spent hour after hour in a dark shack. With sweating males rutting away at me. Down on my hands and knees on a dirt floor. My body jerking upward. Occasionally they’d yank my hair. Or spin on their palm before they brutally smacked my ass. Sometimes, if they were particularly cruel, they’d push into my ass while they did all of those things. Trying to hurt me. Body after sweaty male body. Drowning me in that horrible moldy, blood-soaked odor as they took from me what I had no choice but to give. So, I’d become in control of who could tell me what to do. Until now. Until Alaric. In that moment I both hated him and desired him. "Alaric, please." I whispered fearfully as he returned to pin me against the w
He threw my skirt up. Forcing them under my stomach and shoving me down to pin them against the corner of the table beneath me. Then pulling the back of my skirts up over my buttocks. Exposing me to his lush perusal. I closed my eyes tight against the aching vulnerability of the situation. The burning humiliation that heated my face. He’s going to take me. I could feel his eyes roving my pale skin. I felt him palm one firm buttock. Squeezing it to fully appreciate its suppleness before turning his hand downward to palm all that sweet flesh. He groaned in pleasure. Pressing himself against me. Grinding himself along my crack in his hunger to have me. He’s already hard as a rock. I heard his buckle loosening again, feeling my body tightening in fearful response. “No!” I cried. Shaking my head wildly. Tossing my blonde hair around me like caught in a whirlwind. “I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want this.” T
I was always the one in control. And I wasn’t ready to give that up.I began struggling against him. My thighs thudded into the edge of the table, and my hips ground into it as I tried to escape him. Tried to slide away from him.Before I fully turned and welcomed him as a mate. There would be no turning back if I did it, this time.He’ll keep me forever. He was callous and relentless. He was grunting. Slamming harder and harder into me.The wood table scraped along the stone beneath it. Swaying slightly with each hard thrust. Rocking and creaking with his movements. Giving him just enough mobility to push forward and then bringing my own weight back to him.Offering him the next hard entry. Invading the center of my body as he speared into me with such force that I was losing my mind.All sense of thought was vanishing.My face was flushing. My hair was prickling. I clawed the table next to me. Digging in my fingernails so hard that they were snapping off. Only to be immediately re
I twisted to look at him but saw only conviction in his eyes. The hardening of his jaw as he slowly shook his head. Leaning back to give me a long, meaningful look as he purposefully stroked his hand down my spine. Making the skin tingle in a warm trail that I could feel even as his touch stopped.He wouldn’t.But his excited grunting and moaning, and the ferocious flexing of his biceps as he pumped violently combined with that steady look, he was giving me, indicated he wasn’t going to stop.I knew a moment of renewed panic.“Alaric, it could-”“You’re mine, Lara!” He growled as he tipped forward over me. His stomach tightened in a ripple that climbed through his chest.I felt him surge inside me.“Mine!” He roared.I could hear the animal inside him snarling as it overtook him. Wanting to possess me in every way that was physically possible.Wanting to own me.I was stunned at his sheer violence. Thinking that'd be the end.But it was far from.This was not the cruelty the NightHunt
He felt me tightening around him. I saw the triumph crossing his masculine features as he felt the telltale quakes that whispered, I was soon to shatter.Then my back arched. Exciting him further.He cupped my breasts, balancing them against his palms as he rode me harder. Feeling them leap against his hands. The small, hard nipple crossing the crease of his fingers as our pelvis’ joined again.I gave a wolf whine as the pleasure made my legs vibrate, my vision blur and my mind flood with pleasure, until I was utterly lost to the sensation.I soaked him when I climaxed. Slicking all around him and seeping out to dampen his sack.“Yes, mate. Come for me. Show me how good you are…”He was grinning as he thrust it in and held it, enjoying my surrender.I went limp, exhausted from the exertion of every muscle in my body jerking tight and then releasing until they could no longer tighten.But his next words made my heart sink."Now hook your ankles around the back of my thighs."He’s nowhe
I woke to strange smells, too much heat and a hand cupped around my breast, pulling it further to the center. There was tugging on the little pink crest that seemed to have a direct line down to the center of me. Making it reflexively tighten there.Creating an ache and a tension that reminded me he was still there.He didn’t remove himself. We’d both fallen asleep with him still planted within my sweet hollow.And he’s not about to leave now. He moaned and became a bit forceful. Suckling that fleshy bit more roughly. Nipping it between his teeth and stretching it.Making me cry out at the shocking pleasure of it.I couldn’t see any light to gauge the time, but I could feel the lustful aggression still rolling off him. Indicating that it was obviously still night.Still the pink moon. The Mating Moon.He pulled harder and my fingers bit into his scalp, already tangled in his hair. Making him
His length was impossible. Seeming even bigger than the last time.His whole body was tight. Every muscle bulging as he resisted turning himself. Knowing that he might lose control entirely if he did.But the words that came from him next were the last I could’ve ever suspected.“Tell me, Lara, and I’ll go a bit easier on you.”“Tell you what?” I spat. Unable to focus on anything but my straining body and the sore spots and ached each time he brushed over them.“What broke you.”“Nothing!” I screamed. “I’m strong. You’ve never broken me.”He paused momentarily. Holding my narrow waist in his hands and staring down at me so long that I felt the need to twist and look back at him. “I didn’t say me.”I shook my head adamantly.“Tell me.” He caressed more slowly. Painstakingly pressing in and then easing that torrid length back out. Bit by bit. “What happened to you before the Asara. What destroyed you so badly that you fear
He can do this all night. I realized in horror. Wondering how I’d ever survive it.I’d taken many wolves when I was the pack bitch but there had been breaks between the males then.Times for me to recover before the next awful interaction.Not now. As soon as he’d finished, he was taking me again.I could barely catch my breath. I was so tired that my body shook limply.But I knew what he was doing.He’s going to force me to change. Every time the pleasure climbed through me and exploded, I felt her closing in.I was realizing he could do this to me all night.He’s showing no signs of relenting.Nothing I can do. Nothing I can say will stop him.I realized the awful truth. Limply letting him take me.Even as I was thinking it, my core tightened again. Sending surges through me. Even more powerful than the last time. White hot heat burned through my be
