  “Damn it !” Fay’s voice echoed through the expanse of the hallway as the crystal vase she knocked against tittered on the edge of its makeshift home on the side table- the gentle rocking back and forth indicating the uncertainty of what would happen next.

  Fay’s eyes grew wide in sheer panic as she adjusted the linens in her hand in the hope of reaching out to steady it before it fell- surely shattering into a million pieces against the hard marble- her hand shot out a moment to late as the vase slipped over the edge and she made a tight fist in sheer desperation as she breathed out her need for it not to hit the ground- her breath catching in her throat as a millimeter before the expensive cut glass hit the surface it seemed to just stop and hover above the ground.

  Fay just stood there staring in sheer disbelief at the sight- her jaw slowly dropped open as she took long deep breaths into her chest- her eyes never leaving the object.

  Faith’s gasp sounded like a rush of wind through the hallway and caught Fay’s attention- her head snapped around to see Faith and Adam starring at the vase as it landed with a small tap and not the silence shattering noise it should have made.

  Panic struck at Fay’s very heart as she saw them turn their eyes on her and she dropped the linens she had been holding and took off for the open doorway in a heartbeat as Adam cursed beneath his breath-

  “What the hell?” Faith bit out as Adam laid the table down looking up at Faith for answers.

  “You didn’t know about this?” He accused and Faith looked gobsmacked shaking her head.

  “I didn’t know she had found any of her powers I swear.” She spat out after him as he turned on his heels and ran through the hallway after his mate.

  CHAPTER SIX

  Fay ran blindly across the driveway towards the woods- her heart was thundering inside her chest as she pumped her arms and legs as fast as she could to escape the scene she had just left behind her.

  No. No. No. No! Damn it- what did I do?

  Her words screamed inside her mind- she had reached out with desperation towards that stupid damn vase with her mind and her heart to try to stop it from falling and that thing that sometimes happened had stopped it from breaking-

  Why now? Why in front of Adam and Faith? How was she going to explain what she did when she couldn’t even explain it to herself?

  “Fay. Stop.” The sound of Adam’s voice calling her reached her ears and grated on her nerves and she wanted to stop- everything inside her was calling on her to stop, but she couldn’t make her legs obey- she needed to be alone- she needed to think- to come up with some kind of explanation for what he had seen.

  The sound of him behind her gaining ground gave her a boost of adrenalin that powered her on, her lungs burned within her chest as she reached the woods- slowing only enough to be able to twist and turn between the thick trunks of the trees as she continued on blindly- even when the sharp bushes tore at her arms- the biting sting against her skin causing her to wince but not slow her speed.

  Adam reached for her waist- his hand circling her as he lifted her from the floor, pulling her back against the length of him as he turned them both in the small confined space to slow their speed- his back hitting the hardness of a tree trunk as he came to a stop with Fay held tightly against him as she struggled to get away- her hands pushing and pulling at the arm that was wrapped around her middle in a vice like grip.

  “Calm down-“ He breathed into her ear- his other hand running down her bare arm as he tried to sooth her, but she still fought blindly against him- squirming in place- the toes of her pumps just barely touching the floor as she scrapped them back and forth trying to get a grip on the earth beneath her feet. Her hands locked around the sinews of his arm as she tried to force him to release her.

  “Fay- calm down.” His tone was deep and hard, the commanding nature of his wolf resounded in his voice as she slowed against him- her body and mind recognising the Alpha’s dominance as she gasped the air into her lungs. “Calm down sweetheart.” He breathed against her ear as she rested her hands against his forearm and went deathly still against him- her head dropping forward and to the side as she subconsciously offered her neck for him- his lips brushing against the silken skin instead of the teeth that he should have bared to her.

  “You never have to be scared with me- you never have to hide any part of yourself from me- and you will never run from me again because there is nothing you could ever do that you should fear me knowing- whatever happens- even if it feels like the end of the world to you we will face it together- do you hear me love?” He breathed every word against her ear but each word reached deep within her psyche- into her very soul and she drew a long hard breath, steadying herself.

  Adam turned her in his arms as he turned them both around until her back was against the trunk of the tree and he was staring down at the top of her head- her eyes still firmly down away from him.

  “Look at me sweetheart-“ The commanding tone of the wolf was still there just not as powerfully as it had been before, but she still responded to it- her head rising slowly, he saw the deep crimson of her cheeks and when she finally brought her red rimmed eyes to his, she flinched with the uncertainty that swirled through her mind.

  She looked so small and fragile in that moment that he could have sworn a knife had entered his chest and was being twisted in his heart- fear streaked her eyes as he cupped her cheek with one large hand and captured her lips before she could even think to pull away- his tongue demanding entrance as she opened for him on instinct, allowing him to possess her with such desire for her that the fear for his condemnation of what he had seen her do was pushed aside.

  He had seen her do something that even she couldn’t understand and he had accepted it- accepted her- her mind relaxed its grip on her body and he felt her melt into him- take what he was offering her of himself and she gave him back her trust.

  Adam felt her against the length of him- her body melting into his until she was a part of him- as accepting as she had been in his arms last night and he deepened the kiss out of need for her- she had run from him and his beast was demanding he claim her- when she had offered her neck to her Alpha, his wolf had all but broken through his tight control- he had held on out of the sheer determination not to scare the hell out of her.

  But he couldn’t not touch her- he wanted her so damn badly that it was an impossibility not to touch her- she had run from him and the chase was in his blood like wildfire- she had been captured and had submitted to his will- every instinct within him wanted to claim her- his hands ran over her back- the bare skin of her arm- his thumb finding the hardness of her nipple as she arched into his touch, her tongue became almost ferocious against his.

  She pressed her hips into him- her stomach against the steel of his shaft, a moan in her throat as he groaned his desire back at her. His hands roamed down her slender hips until he had her skirt hooked over his hands, his fingers running back up her thighs bringing the soft material with them.

  “Fay-“ He warned on a low growl trying to hold himself back from what he wanted to do right here and now with her in the middle of the damned woods. But when he looked down at her- her kiss swollen lips- the flush of her cheeks, the desire in her hooded eyes he lost all rationality- nothing mattered more than being within her.

  As his lips came down on hers again in a punishing assault to her sense- she opened for him without thought or question because in her mind there was nothing but the driving need for him- he reached under the pool of fabric at her hips and ran firm fingertips up her inner thigh until his fingers reached the lace that covered her curls, easily ripping through the delicate lace- the action so primal to her overloaded senses it caused her to moan into his mouth as his fingers reached behind her running down the crack of her backside and he lifted her against him.

  Hard fingers palming her flesh and squeezing his claim- her legs wrapped around his hips grounding her against him, his fingers chased over the tight puckered hole and she caught
her breath, her hand sliding between them as he tipped her shoulders back against the tree- while she worked to free him from the last barrier between them- her tiny fist closed around him as she set him free and he growled against her lips when she tightened her hold on his shaft- stroking him.

  He rimmed her core with one finger- she was already hot and wet for him but he knew he needed to stretch her for his entry- she had been so tight the night before and he wasn’t going to rush to take her and hurt her now- no matter the need that was burning within him.

  Dipping a finger within her silken walls she moaned loudly against his lips, squirming against him- needing more from him than what he was giving her. He stroked another finger into her and she forced herself down on him, knuckle deep- the walls of her core tightening around the feel of him.

  “Adam-“ she gasped with a need for him to fill her so completely she couldn’t fight the frustration that gripped her- he added another finger into her stroking in and out, stretching her for his entry as she dropped her head back against the trunk and stroked him harder within her fist, his low growls of pleasure matching her own moans- her body was on fire with the need for him to be inside her.

  “- Please.” She moaned shifting her hips against him and he pulled his fingers from within her, keeping her against him with one strong hand against her backside as he reached around and brushed her hand from his shaft before lifting her up his body, his hand guiding the head of his arousal over her slick folds as she moaned her pleasure along with her need for him- her hips rocking back and forth as she searched for what she needed until he nudged the entrance to her core and she pushed against him taking him into her.

  Her hips pushed forwards as her feet pulled at him- he slowly eased the thickness of his shaft into her tight walls and she moaned long and hard with the bulbous head of his shaft inching into her- filling the silken walls and stretching her around him- her body sheathing him so tightly that he groaned with the pure pleasure she was giving him.

  “Damn you’re so tight sweetheart I don’t want to hurt you-“ His voice was a low growl of desire and she answered him by pushing her hips towards him taking more of him within her core- a moan of pleasure escaping her lips as he eased into her inch by inch.

  “Adam-“ she gasped against the slight burn of him stretching her so tightly- after last night she had expected him to just slide within- he half growled against the force of the control he was having to exert- it was killing his beast to go so damned slowly, but he was keeping it under control- unwilling to force himself within her- he waited for what felt like an eternity for her body to become accustomed to his size, even with her wiggling against him urging him on he kept his beast in check until he moved within her again.

  “Just a little more- can you take me like this?” He breathed into her neck- she was wide open for him with her legs around his hips- he didn’t want to take her so deeply that he caused her pain, but she pushed her hips forwards and he found himself completely sheathed by her to the hilt, the growl of desire mixed with pleasure as he held deep within her escaping his lips.

  “God move- please move-“ her plea practically set his beast free and when he pulled back to the very edge of her core and pushed back in to the hilt she dug her nails into his shoulders through his thin tee and he growled against the beast inside fighting to take over.

  She felt the bark digging into her spine and tensed against the pain- Adam immediately stilled inside her as she sucked in a gasp through clenched teeth, “Damn it I hurt you-“ Adam growled pulling her against his chest but keeping his hips back away from her and she shook her head.

  “Tree-“ she hissed trying to force her hips against him to take him back deep within- he cursed his stupidity under his breath- he should have been doing this in a damned bed.

  “We need to stop and-“ she locked her legs tightly around him, unwillingly to let him go. He growled deep within his chest as he sat down on the ground Fay straddling him, pushing his hips up and taking her deeper than before as she moaned with the jolt of pleasure that washed through her- he lifted her up his shaft and lowered her again, her head dropping back as she felt the sensation roll through her.

  Her fingers digging into the hard muscles of his shoulders as he raised her up and felt her tighten her muscles around his shaft and he groaned out his pleasure before he eased her back down and she squeezed and released her muscles around him- massaging him within her walls until he lost all reason- his hips thrusting up into her as he brought her down over him.

  She unlocked her legs from around him, moving onto her knees as she started to thrust down onto him meeting his upward thrust - barely audible cries of pleasure catching within her throat.

  He moved his hand over her mound until his thumb found the peak of her desire, circling his thumb over the nub- causing her hips to work almost feverishly against him, her breathing coming faster and harder as she climbed towards her climax, her hands pushing him back against the earth and allowing him the freedom to thrust his hips against her harder and faster, taking her deeper as she rode with him, matching him thrust for thrust over and over until her breath caught in her chest- her body tensing an instant before her muscles started to spasm around him as she cried out.

  He felt the spasms massaging him within and allowed his animal to take over- thrusting into her with powerful strokes, his thumb still working against her nub as he pounded up into her- catching her back up in a second climb towards release- she curled her fingers into the hard muscles of his chest as his hips worked beneath her, faster and harder with powerful strokes that sent jolts of pleasure deep within her core- she could feel her release building until it overwhelmed her with its intensity, her body bucking against his as she silently screamed- her breath caught within her chest as she rode the wave of sensation that tore through her.

  Her muscles massaging the orgasm from him as he thrust deep into her, the roar of sheer pleasure escaping his throat as he drew back and slammed back into her- exploding deeply as her muscles massaged his seed from his body- he thrust as deeply as he could get before grinding his hips against her, revelling in the ripples of pleasure that shot through his body as she collapsed against his chest, his arms locked around her possessively as he protected her while she fought to recover.

  “Adam?” She tipped her head on his chest to look up at him- now that the fever of her need had been sated she felt the unease creep back to the surface but when she found the look of awe mixed with what looked like love in his eyes she rested back against his chest.

  Seeing what you want to see Fay- that’s not love- it’s lust. She warned her inner self as he stroked his hands down her spine.

  “We need to talk about us Fay- I have some secrets of my own to share and I’m not doing it on my back in the middle of the damned woods.” He almost whispered the words on that deep husky voice of his and she nodded not trusting her voice.

  He eased out of her, still semi hard- he could feel the desire to have her again and needed to put some clothes between them before he took her- they did need to talk, he knew that- desperately, before his wolf decided to claim her and he wasn’t strong enough to stop that happening.

  He sat up with Fay still pressed to his chest- cupping her face with his hands he eased back away from her and planted a gentle kiss against her lips.

  “Walk with me?” He asked and she nodded, pulling up from him and straightening her clothes- with that dark crimson flooding her cheeks- minus her panties- while he tucked himself away. Reaching for her hand he led her through the woods and out into clearing the other side.

  “Where are we going?” She asked as he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her to his side.

  “About a mile in that direction- there’s something I want to show you are you up for it?” She nodded again as they started off together across the uphill expanse of the clearing.

  When they reached the top of the incline he shot a look in her direction as her eyes took in the terr
ain below- the landscape almost dropped away with a deep downwards slope- a path that appeared to have been cut into the earth over years of use, that led down to a valley below- a rocky outcrop reached up to the clouds on the other side and Fay narrowed her eyes as she searched for what she knew to be true- the rocky outcrop that held a gentle waterfall.

  “Come on.” He led her down the steep path- his arm like a steel rope that helped her keep her footing until they reached the bottom and she was more than eager to press on and see what she knew had been in her dream for the last few nights.

  Adam led her through the entrance that reached up against the sky- it seemed to surround them on all sides like a welcoming doorway. Her eyes took in the sight before her- her dreams coming to life as she followed him through the alcove into the lush green expanse that led to the pool, fed with streams of white water over the shiny rocks- her breath caught in her throat as she stood there taking it all in- how the hell could this be?.

  Fay turned her eyes to him questioning why he had brought her here- did he know her dreams?

  “I’ve seen this place before.” She put it out there and saw the answer in his smile- he knew, but how the hell could he know?

  “You pulled me into your dream with you and I showed this to you.” His voice was like a whisper against her ear even though he was standing slightly away from her- allowing her to drink in the scenery- only his hand wrapped loosely around hers gave them a connection.

  Fay looked around in bewilderment at this magical place- magic- did he have magic like her? Could this be his magic that he could dream with her?

  “That’s why you weren’t afraid of what you saw me do- because you have-“ she hesitated, dropping her eyes to the grass before speaking the word that was still so uncomfortable on her lips, “Magic.” She uttered it like it was still a secret not to be spoken about.
