With every pump of his hips jabbing his cock further into me, it was as if he was trying to touch my very soul. I knew from my early days that some men have to have sex their way. Some rough, some wild, and some tender and sweet. I didn’t want Tobias to think I couldn’t handle his wild side, so I racked my finger nails down his back as I leaned forward to bite his earlobe.
“You sure you want to do that?” he whispered in my ear. His hot breath on my neck sent chills coursing through me.
“I want to do everything with you,” I said running my tongue around his earlobe as he pushed harder into me. Our bodies slammed against one another as he throbbed inside me.
“Claim me,” I begged as I clawed his back trying to keep him locked to my body.
He paused his movement, and I stopped too. Fear gripped me as I searched his eyes for any problems or concerns. A faint smile played at the corner of his lips as I dropped my head to the ground afraid of what might come out of his mouth.
“Are you sure you know what that means?” he asked cupping his hands around my face. I nodded as I stared up at him.
“I know it means that I will be yours forever.”
“Are you sure you want that? After all, you know what I am, what I’m capable of doing.”
“I know you are kind and gentle.”
“Not all the time,” he mumbled as his eyes dropped from mine.
“I don’t care about the monster.”
“But, he is part of me. I can do nothing to get rid of that side of me. I was born this way and I will die this way.”
“I can handle it,” I promised and craned my neck to press my lips to his. He didn’t stop me, but opened his mouth and consumed my kiss. As our tongues touched, he grew wild. The tenderness faded swiftly and he grabbed my body and lifted me up as he rose.
“You will always be mine, Athena, always.” The burning desire in his eyes set me off. I scrambled to his lap and placed his cock back inside my warm welcoming body.
“I want you to do what you want to do,” he said grabbing me by my hips. “Do what makes you feel good.”
“I want to please you,” I said as I slid up and down forcing him deeper and deeper. Every stroke connected us and as my juices poured out of my body, I threw my head back ready for more. My body couldn’t get enough of his. As I moved up, his hands were right there on my hips forcing me back down on him. His cock was the anchor between our two bodies and there wasn’t anything in the world that could break our connection now.
I gasped for air as I rocked on his hips ensuring that every thrust of his hips meant that he wasn’t going anywhere. He clung to me as I pounded my body down on him. He held me close kissing my neck as I had my fill of him.
“That’s it,” he groaned as I went faster and harder than I had ever done. The beast inside him would be pleased with the force I used and although every other man I had been with had always taken control, it was a relief finally to be able to get what I wanted.
Tobias allowed me to bend and shift. He encouraged me to twist and turn. As I spun around on his lap and dropped to the ground with my ass in the air, he knew what I wanted. Quickly he pushed himself back into me refusing to let me go unsatisfied.
I clawed at the dirt as I focused on the dying fire before me. I knew eventually the flames would go out, but for the time being they represented our love, our passion and the need to consume each other until our dying breath.
“I want to come,” he moaned as he jabbed me faster. I could feel him swelling inside of me ready to burst, the moment I gave the word. The tip of his cock rammed the right spot as my body squeezed around his shaft. In a violent thrust, he pulled my hips to his and held me in place as his seed shot through my willing body.
He left out a groan that rumbled like a growl and his body trembled behind mine. Trying hard I reached under my body and slipped my hand around the base of his cock and squeezed.
“That’s it,” he panted as his body stopped quaking and he dropped his head down. Leaning down I smiled. Pulling my hand back up, I let myself fall into the dirt exhausted. Tobias was right there next to me panting and heaving, trying to catch his breath.
“You are amazing,” he said as he mustered what little strength he had left to kiss my shoulder.
“I love you.” His words were muffled from the exertion, but I heard them nonetheless. Hope filled me as did admiration for all that he was.
“I love you back,” I answered in the same tired tone and I watched the flames of the fire turn into nothing but glowing embers.
There was no telling what time of day it was when my eyes finally opened again. The birds sang a sweet melody that brought me out of my stupor. Everything about last night lingered in my mind as I propped myself up on one arm and looked around our little camp site. Everything was absolutely perfect. I turned to glance over my shoulder only to find Tobias wasn’t by my side. My heart thumped in my ears and I sat up quickly, my eyes darting around the area.
“Tobias?” I called out to him praying he was within earshot. The seconds ticked by and I wondered what had happened to my beloved. I rose swiftly to my feet and pulled my ragged dress back over my body. While I knew I wasn’t the queen of Sheba, I didn’t have anything else.
“You’re awake.” The instant I heard his voice behind me I spun around and threw my arms around him.
“You didn’t think I would leave you did you?” he asked as I tried to fight the tears that determined to overpower me.
“No, I knew you wouldn’t. But, when I woke, and you were gone …” I didn’t want to think about the horrors that could have been. He was there, and that was all that mattered now.
“I brought you some berries and I found a rabbit,” he paused. He stared at me with wide eyes stared filled with wonder. “You do eat rabbit don’t you?”
Smiling I nodded and moved over to the small collection of food he had found. As I took my place next to him I realized for the first time that the wilderness wasn’t as scary as I had first envisioned. We could live here like this for the rest of our lives. We didn’t have to go back.
“Before you get upset, I want you to know that Lola is here.”
“What?” My eyes darted to the trees half expecting her to appear in her wolf form ready to pounce in a moment’s notice.
“Why?” I asked scooting closer to him.
“She has something to say to you and I wanted to warn you before you jumped to the wrong conclusion.” I watched Tobias give a nod before shifting his attention to something behind me. The warmth in my body faded away as soon as I turned around.
There, coming out of the forest like a huntress was Lola in all her wonder. She was even more remarkable in the daylight and she stole my breath away.
“I’m sorry for the part I played,” she said keeping her eyes locked on Tobias. “Tobias has made it very clear whom he wants, and I have come here to tell you that, although I don’t like it—”
“Lola,” Tobias scolded, and I saw instantly Lola step back and clear her throat.
“Just take care of him will you?” she said turning her gaze on me. There wasn’t any malice in her eyes, for the first time since I had met her. She was completely sincere and I could see that she was relinquishing her claim to Tobias, in order to make room for me.
Although I didn’t understand wolf customs, I was certain I would learn quickly. I kept my gaze on her, studying her. I wondered if I looked like my mother when I did it. It would be very easy to hate Lola for planting the seeds of doubt in me. But, I didn’t want to be that kind of girl. Taking a deep breath I smiled.
“Are you hungry? Tobias has found some food and you are more than welcome to join us.”
The invitation startled her and shock flickered across her face. Her hard features softened and her eyes darted to Tobias.
“I see why you like her Tobias. She is different.”
“Come Lola, there is plenty here for everyone.”
Lola sat by my side, as we ate in
silence. Although she was a better match for Tobias, he was mine and I was his. No man or monster could ever stand in our way again.
