Tasting The Enemy

Elaine POV

We stumbled into his apartment, kissing, touching and panting. He locked the door and dumped the keys somewhere with his eyes closed. He slammed me against the wall felt the sides of my body slowly and sensually until he came to the hem of my denim skirt.

I was completely inexperienced. My heart was racing from the thrill but my hands trembled from the fear.

“Hey, are you scared?”

He held my face in his large hands and smirked.

“I’m a little nervous. It feels surreal sometimes,” I said.

“What’s surreal?” He asked gently.

“That you’re my mate. I guess I lost hope of ever having one.”

“I want every inch of you, sweetheart.”

He kissed my lips. “I want to taste every part.” He kissed me again.

Butterflies filled my tummy and I burst into giggles. “I couldn’t wait to see you.”

He picked me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist. He carried me through his apartment. He lay me on his massive bed. It smelt like him.

Gosh, I wanted him, but my secrets were nagging at me. Was this really the best time to tell him all my dirty laundry? I blamed the nerves.

“My Dad knows I was with another male. He got upset but that’s not the only thing.”

“Fuck is that why he locked you up? Why didn’t you tell me?”

Because we got into an argument, I thought.

I shook my head. “There’s more I just… can’t right now, Azaire.”

“It’s for the best Elaine. Everyone’s going to find out. Hell, I want everyone to know I have a fated mate and she’s the most fucking gorgeous woman ever!”

Heat rushed to my face and tears stung my eyes. I cupped my face and battled to contain the tears. Azaire pried my hands off my face.

“You’re so beautiful, Elaine. Forget everything I said, you’re not a Black Claw spawn. You’re perfect and I want to show you.”

I nibbled on my bottom lip and nodded. Azaire turned off the overhead lights and turned on the lamp by his bedside. He lifted the shirt over my head, revealing a black bra. He unclipped it and marvelled at my modest chest. The soft glow from the lamp caressed his masculine features.

“So beautiful.”

He undressed me with immense care. He was too dressed when parted my legs with his knee. I pulled his shirt over his head while he unbuckled his belt and lost his pants. Seconds later our naked bodies mingled together.

“I’ll be gentle,” he whispered in my ear.

He kissed my neck and nibbled on the soft flesh. I ran my hands up his back and dug my nails into his back as I felt the pressure from his rock-hard-on on my belly. He’s perfect, perfect for me. Yes, he’s annoying and we’ll probably fight a lot but he went to my house when he thought I was in danger. He pummelled Neel when he stepped out of line. How did I know if I left Azaire that he wouldn’t just come running after me?

I raised my knees as Azaire positioned his member on my stomach. My breathing intensified but I wanted him, my wolf yearned for him. Azaire held my jaw and captured my gaze.

“Look at me, Beautiful,” he said softly.

Our eyes locked. He slid his cock into my soaked entrance. I gasped as his cock stretched my walls. I panted, I was partly confused but I focused on him.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Fuck Elaine, you’re so tight.”

I dug my nails into his back and cried out as he broke through. He gently rocked his hipped forward. I felt a blend of pain and pleasure as he worked me up.

“You’re so fucking beautiful. My gorgeous mate.”

I shut my eyes and relished the sensations coursing through my body. Azaire moved from gentle to slightly rough. He rocked us hard enough to make the bed bang against the wall. He handled me with care. He did as he promised and tasted every inch of me. Azaire chased my pleasure and awoke passions in me I didn’t know I had.

I felt my orgasm nearing. Azaire was close too and it was going to be beautiful. The feeling of oneness overwhelmed me. Azaire closed his lips on mine and kissed me passionately. Finally, our mate bond was complete.

“Elaine, wake up,” a voice inside my head said.

I woke up in a dark room on top of a sleeping man. Azaire’s arm held me to his chest.

“What’s wrong?” I asked through my link with my wolf.

“We have to go. You don’t have much time. The curse is going to act up soon.”

“How? I thought the wolf enhancers worked.”

“We need more but we won’t get them tonight. We need our Alpha,” Dove said urgently.

I sat up and stared at Azaire. What would he think when he woke up and I wasn’t here? Though, I could feel Dove fleeting.

“Our bond with him is closed he won’t feel us until you use more wolf enhancers. Go, Elaine. He’ll be okay.”

I kissed his forehead before scrabbling for my clothes.

I couldn’t shift I had to run home. By the time I got home my bones had broken, Dove was gone and my limps trembled. I was a fool for thinking I could be free. My curse will always bring me back to this place. The betas guarding the house surrounded me before I collapsed.

I’m in trouble now.

They dumped me in my Dad’s office and left me to my fate. I trembled terribly as if someone had pulled me out of a freezer. Not long after I was dumped in the office Dad’s heavy presence filled the room. The temperature in the room grew colder when his witch appeared.

“You thought you were clever, Elaine,” Dad said surprisingly calmly. “I should let your curse deal with you, but I want to know how you recovered on your own?”

My heart slammed forward. He could never know.

Avena glared at me. She would let me die in the blink of an eye.

“Speak!” Dad barked.

I bit my tongue.

I shut my eyes and trembled uncontrollably. I needed to fight. I had to get out of here and away from these people.

“Don’t be a fool, Elaine. You need me.”

He pried my mouth open. I looked in time to see Dad fill his hand with venom. He shoved it into my mouth. Alpha’s venom was deadly and it burned like acid but to me, a curse wolf it was like water. It neutralized the chaos going on inside me.

“What are you doing?” Avena demanded.

“She’s not getting out of her deal with Neel that easily.”

“Aren’t you going to ask her where she was?”

“Ask her if you want. I don’t have time to waste.” Dad turned around and left Avena standing in front of me.

She glared at me with distaste. She left without offering me another word.

There was a packet of wolf enhancers at the lodge. I couldn’t use them forever but I couldn’t be a prisoner for the rest of my life either.
