“And it was less than that when I zapped your big manly backside across the room…”Alma reminded Rick as the front door closed to their cabin and Rudd’s laughter rang out in the silence between them.
Rick yanked her in front of him and pulled her the length of his body. Bringing his lips down on hers to silence her, he started what was to become a slow exploration of her body with his tongue.
His hand found the top of the sheet that she had tucked just under her arm to hold the fabric in place around her naked body and he released it. Grabbing a handful of material he yanked the sheet free and let it pool around her feet on the floor.
“And now I’m going to make you pay for that in the most wicked of ways possible.”He growled gently against her lips. The devilish gleam in his eyes was a promise of his words and she felt her inner muscles contract with a need that was building inside her.
“Perhaps I should zap you again to make doubly sure you hold to that.”Her fingernails bit into the flesh of his naked backside and caused him to growl.
“Zap me again and I guarantee my wolf won’t be so gentle…”He warned on another deep growl of desire.
Alma let the magic flow through her body, allowing just the slightest spark of electric to crackle from her fingertips against the firm muscles of his backside and she felt the muscles tense as he growled against clenched teeth.
“Did I tell you that I’m not too fond of gentle.”She breathed against his neck before running her tongue up towards his ear and nipping at his lobe, causing the deep, almost feral growl to rumble through his chest and escape his lips as his erection twitched against the flat of her stomach.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”He informed her, grabbing two handfuls of her ample backside and hoisting her up against him.
Rudd made a detour towards the cabin of his other Beta. He hadn’t heard from Jack all day and he wondered if she had killed her mate yet or if she had succumbed to the mating urge and bonded with him.
He kind of hoped for the later. She was a damn fine Beta, even if she did keep herself more aloof from the pack than he would have liked. But even that seemed to be changing as she took on her pet project of keeping Shane on the straight and narrow.
The young Lycan might make a fine Beta himself one day, but he was a screw up of epic proportions, and she seemed to warm to him more than anyone else when she first got here, taking it upon herself to take him under her wing and guide him when necessary, bad arse him when needed, and generally keep him in tow.
As for Link, well he was one of the finest men that Rudd knew. The fact that he was a vampire only seemed to heighten his importance to the pack and he had helped out with numerous problems over the years. He was a true friend that didn’t hesitate to come when he was called, and he had brought Macy into his life on this visit, and for that he would always be grateful.
Rudd could scent the sex in the air without even trying. The closer he got to the cabin the more potent the scent and he grinned as he scented the underlying pheromones that signalled his Beta was in heat. He very much doubted that either of them would be coming out of that cabin for a couple of days, and Rudd nodded his approval as he detoured away from her home and back onto the track that would take him back towards his mate.
He’d walked for no more than ten minutes through the thick underbrush and the half worn trail through the woods when he scented Macy on the breeze. His nose followed the scent and he listened for the steady beat of her heart as his eyes located her up ahead.
“Going somewhere?”Rudd called to her, a moment before he chased across the space between them as she half turned towards him, a smile on her lips and what he thought might have been a look of relief.
“I kind of got lost. Turn right at the first large oak, second at the left, take the path that leads to the hollowed stump and…”His arms came around her body and he pulled her up against him, nuzzling against her neck and taking in her scent as he became hard just from being with her.
“There you’ll find the fairy rock…”He couldn’t help but snort his amusement. “It’s a stone that if you squint hard enough and for long enough it sort of looks like a fairy…”He chuckled again. Knowing that only one person would have sent her on a fool’s errand, Ramsey. It was his idea of an initiation for the pups when he thought them old enough.
“I want to see it and you left me alone…”Macy pouted, but when he dragged his head back and looked down at her, he could see that the pout was just an act.
“If you want to see then we’ll go…”He informed her, turning her in his arms and bringing her hip to his as he kept a firm hand around her waist. He would have preferred to keep her pressed against the length of him, but his mate requested to visit the rock and he would oblige. The light was slipping away from them and night was coming in fast, faster under the canopy of the woods, and she really didn’t have the eyesight needed to view the rock in the darkness.
“Slow down…”She was wearing five inch heels, how fast did he think she could make it over the uneven earth.
Rudd noted her shoes and snorted his contempt. He stopped and reached down, lifting first one foot and then the other as he took her shoes from her feet and she hissed her protest.
“Because bare feet are so much better.”She protested as he tossed her shoes over his shoulder and a little squeak of protest came from her lips as her eyes followed them where they landed. “Hey.” She went to move after them, but his hands were on the hem of her skirt and he yanked it up towards her hips, exposing her thighs for his eyes and bringing a deep growl of desire to his lips. “What…?”She went to protest again as her eyes flicked around them for any sign that they weren’t alone.
“Get on my back, it’ll be faster this way and we’re losing the light.”Rudd saw her about to protest so he wrapped his hand around her arm and turned, hoisting her up his back and feeling her grab on around his neck and waist as she squeaked out her surprise.
“Are you really going to…?”She hissed out against his neck and he grinned to himself.
“Yep. Hold on.”He growled, starting off in a gentle run as she held tighter, her body tensing against his.
It didn’t take him long to get to the fairy stone, but by that time she was more out of breath than he was as she buried her face against his back and closed her eyes to the sights passing them by at a speed she could never have travelled alone.
Rudd came to a stop and reached for her, he had to yank her arms and legs away from him as he turned her around his body, bringing her sex against the length of his erection as she slowly opened her eyes and met the darkness within his.
“That was scary weird.”She breathed and was rewarded with that wolfish grin that exposed two rows of perfect white teeth and a gleam of mischief within his eyes.
“One fairy rock.”He growled against her lips, taking just a taste of her before he motioned with his head to the right and her eyes reluctantly followed his prompting.
Like so many before her he saw the look of confusion on her face, the way she tilted her head to take in the large stone that looked just like a jagged bolder, and then she did what everyone else had done and narrowed her eyes, twisting her head from side to side as she waited for the image to become recognisable.
“Where’s the fairy?”She couldn’t see a resemblance.
“Told you. But now you’ve seen it for yourself let’s turn out attention to more pressing matters…”He pressed his erection harder against her and she squirmed in his arms, all thoughts of the stupid rock dismissed from her mind as she grinned at him. “Let’s get back to the cabin and…”
Macy brought her cheek against his as she breathed out against his ear. “What’s wrong with right here?”She teased him by moving her hips against him and rubbing harder against the length of him and he growled out his desire.
“You’re human…”He offered, more than distracted by the way her teeth nipped his neck, and when her tongue ran up over his heated flesh he had her back up ag
ainst that damned stupid rock in an instant.
“And humans don’t do it outdoors?”She chuckled gently against his ear before moaning out her pleasure as his fingers skirted under the elastic of her panties and stroked over the wet heat of her folds.
He could scent her arousal, she was wet for him already, and he growled his need against her neck as his tongue swooped over his mark in her neck.
The sound of a more urgent moan that left her lips had him slipping a couple of fingers inside her channel as she squirmed against him.
“You want me to take you here?”Rudd growled into her neck as he nuzzled into her, taking her scent and growling out with pleasure as his mate moved against his erection.
Her lips pressed against his ear, “I want to bond with you here.”She whispered, but she could have shouted the damn words as his head snapped back and he questioned her with his eyes.
“What do you know of bonding?”He tried to still the beast within him.
‘Mine.’ The wolf pushed forward at their mate’s words, eager to bond with her…
“I met Ramsey and Wilma…”She grinned at him, a double suggestive raise of her brows as her eyes glinted in mischief.
“How much did they tell you?”His fingers wouldn’t still within her, it wasn’t within him to even contemplate not having her here and now, but bonding…?
“Everything. The wolf, the fangs, the bite…”Her fingers were working over his shirt, yanking at it to try to get it over his head and he pressed her backside against the rock, keeping her in lace with his hips as he obliged and yanked his top over his head.
Then he slowly lowered her down his body and onto her feet. Without tearing everything from her body he would never get her clothes off with her wrapped around him, and he wanted her naked.
“It should be done in a bed…”He growled down at her as his hands yanked her skirt back down over her thighs and down to her ankles, her panties followed and he could scent her arousal as he knelt on one knee before her…
“Why?”Macy bit out as she yanked her top over her head and dropped it to the earth beside her, she hadn’t even bothered with a bra to cover her breasts, deciding she liked what he told her earlier about nakedness and taking baby steps towards that.
His long hard growl reached up and over her body as he turned his eyes up towards her, taking in her naked form and reaching for her hips as he nudged her backwards against the rock. His hands ran down over her outer thighs and then up her inner thighs towards her sex, and he opened her legs for his touch. Dropping onto his other knee as his fingers entered her again and she bit down on a moan of pleasure.
“Because you’re human…”He growled a moment before he nuzzled between her legs and took in her scent, his tongue flicking over the nub of her flesh that made her knees weak.
She fisted his hair in her hands and urged him on. “And you’re not…”She gasped as he nipped at her flesh, her body arching against the stone. “I like to compromise…” She squeaked as he sucked hard and fast, his teeth and tongue working over her flesh as his fingers took her as deeply as he could.
The thought of taking her out here was like an aphrodisiac to his mind and body, and that of his wolf. The beast would never be allowed to mate with her, but just bonding with her in the wolf’s natural habitat was the next best thing and the animal yipped its approval…
Rudd couldn’t wait to be inside of her, and for that he needed her body ready and more than willing to accept him. He took her towards the edge of insanity faster than he might have had they been indoors, in a bed, he wanted her now and when she came apart for him, and he tasted her sweetness he growled out his desire for more.
Macy knew her legs wouldn’t hold her up any longer and finally gave into the urge to let them buckle beneath her. Rudd’s hands were against her hips, guiding her down to her knees as he leaned her back against the rock.
Jumping to his feet he yanked at the fly of his jeans, grabbing handfuls of the material he thrust the garment down around his ankles as his eyes never left his mate as she slowly came back to him.
Macy’s lashes flicked open and she stared at the offering before her. His erection stood out hard and proud towards her and she moved quickly, taking the thickness of his shaft within her fist and tasting him with her tongue.
Rudd’s heart slammed into his ribs with such a jolt that he didn’t know if it was going to start again within his chest as his mate took him in hand and made a meal of the length of him. He palmed the rock over her head as he looked down on her, his knees feeling weak as she covered the head with her lips and sucked him hard into her mouth, working just over the bulbous head of his manhood in a way he’d never thought could make him so damn hard with the need to release.
The moment she thrust down the length of him, taking him deeply into her mouth he nearly howled with the damn pleasure that drew his sack up against his body so tightly he thought he just might come there and then.
“Macy…”He growled down at her as her eyes came up to his and she pushed him as far into her throat as she could take him. His hand fisted her hair as he rumbled his utter pleasure at the feel of what she was doing to him. He tried to keep his hips from moving, tried to keep from holding her head in place so he could take his pleasure, but she was almost fevered in her devouring of him, from tip to her fist, and when she stroked her fingers against the skin between his balls and his backside he couldn’t contain his needs any longer.
Holding her in place with his hands in her hair he moved inside her mouth and down into her throat, and she swallowed him down, her throat muscles contracting around the ridge and sending him wild with a need to take his release, her cheeks caressed his shaft as she sucked and moved over his flesh and he felt the pressure tear up his spine as he buried himself deep and spilled his seed down her throat, over and over until he had to palm the rock again for fear his legs would give way beneath him.
As the reality of where he was came back to him he felt the long tug against his manhood as his mate’s mouth still worked over his half mast, teasing and sucking it back to life as he pulled back from her, reaching down he wrapped his hands around her upper arms and he pulled her up the length of his body, pushing her back against the coldness of the stone with his hips as he tasted himself on her tongue.
‘Mine.’ He pushed his beast back within him. He wasn’t going to bond with her here, not like this. She was human and he would take her in a bed, or at least in a damn bedroom…
He devoured her mouth with a passion that had her gasping for air when he finally released her to work his tongue down over her neck, finding his mark in her shoulder as he lifted her against the rock, rubbing his penis against her sex and nudging the sensitive nub until she mewed in frustration.
His hand slipped between them and he fisted his shaft, nudging it into the entrance of her channel as he moved his hand and thrust deep inside her, taking her to the hilt as she cried out with the pain and pleasure of being so full of him.
Rudd growled to himself, trying to push his beast back away from the surface, knowing he would never have taken her like that if the damn wolf wasn’t baying to bond with her.
“Did I hurt you?”He growled against her ear and heard her breathless denial as she wrapped her legs tighter around his hips.
“Again…”She begged, wanting to feel the power of her mate inside her, against her.
‘Mine.’ His beast was pushing forwards again, eager to bond.
“Macy, I…”Rudd was about to deny her needs, she could almost sense it from him…
“Please, Rudd, show me your true self, both sides of you…”Her fingernails bit down into the flesh of his shoulders and he drew back to the very tip and thrust back into her, over and over until she was tightening around him.
“Christ, Macy…”He growled, turning her in mid air and pulling her away from him. She mewed as he pulled out of her, setting her down on her hands and knees on the earth as he moved behind her. His wolf was baying w
ith the need to bond and he was fevered with the same needs.
He squatted above her backside, fisting his length and guiding it into her channel and then he thrust into her, taking her deeper than he had ever taken her, feeling her muscles naturally try to clamp around him, hold him inside her as she dropped her head forward and moaned at the pleasure that course through her body.
‘Mine.’ His beast wouldn’t be denied, and he realised for a split second that he was taking her as his beast might take a Lycan mate. His body was over the top of hers, caging her beneath him as he thrust hard and deep inside her, over and over as the fever took him.
He had no desire to be on his knees behind her, this felt so damn good, and the way she was moaning, her muscles caressing his length, and her hands were fisting the earth he knew it was taking her towards her orgasm hard and fast.
“Mine.” Rudd heard the feral nature of his beast within his voice. He felt his fangs push down and he fisted her hair, pulling her head to one side and running his tongue over his mark as she bit down on the rush to climax that was like a fire within her body.
The scent of her arousal in the air, the way her body was tightening under his, around his told him all he needed to know, and when he pressed his fangs against her skin, locking her in place with his other arm to keep her from jerking away when he bit down, he moved faster, taking her over the edge as her whole body convulsed as the orgasm tore through her, taking her with a ferocity that she had never know.
Rudd bit down hard, sinking his fangs deep into her flesh and revelling in the taste of her blood even as she tried to jerk against his hold, a cry sounding out into the still night air as he bonded with his mate.
He was quick to release his fangs once his beast was satisfied that the bond was complete, and he forced himself to clean and seal her wound as best he could before the fire of need swept through him.
He could feel his mate starting to return to him as he moved inside her again. Long, deep thrusts that had her moaning out as he swept back and forth over the sensitive sweet spot within her channel. Every inch of her flared to life even as her body still trembled with the aftermath of her last orgasm.
