Jamal Kunis POV
My hands began to explore Methis's body, conveying my desire and silently urging her to prepare herself. I could sense hesitation in her eyes, a desire to refuse, but before she could voice her thoughts, I silenced her with another passionate kiss. In that moment, I wasn't concerned about her feelings or thoughts. All I wanted was to consume her, to lose myself in the intensity of our connection.
Our bodies joined together again, with me holding her against my body as tight as possible, feeling every nook and cranny of her warm, softness. Soon enough, and rather quickly too, what started gently soon became a furious storm of desire and need, mostly on my part of course, almost losing control entirely. Even then, the intensity between us was undeniable. As we moved together, I couldn't help but notice a strange attraction emanating from Methis, something I hadn't felt in the fifteen years since I lost my mate.
It was like a strong, earthly scent, that threatened to swallow me up and confuse me, as I pulled away from kissing her to look into her eyes, I felt it, almost literally like a hook to my navel drag me towards her.
And for the single, little, instant it was there, it scared the shit out of me, making me gasp in shock. Then just as soon as it came, it was gone, replaced by the heat of our lovemaking.
The pleasure and connection we shared were overwhelming, but amidst the physicality, a spark of something deeper flickered. I found myself wanting to protect Methis, to cherish her beyond the physical realm. It was a foreign feeling, one that I hadn't experienced in a long time.
As our bodies moved in sync, I realized that Methis was more than just a means to an end. She was a puzzle piece in the intricate story of my existence, a piece that had been missing for far too long.
Since the curse.
And now, here she was. Even if it was by design, by a stupid fucking contract, it didn't change the fact that it was still happening to me, here, now. My past had been filled with emptiness, but now, with Methis, there was a glimmer of hope, a chance at something more.
Lost in the throes of passion dominating my mind now, I held onto Methis tightly, not wanting to let go. Every touch, every gasp, every shared moment reaffirmed the connection between us. It was as if fate had brought us together, joining our lives in a way that couldn't be undone.
The feeling was there again, the inexplicable thing I felt with her, this time I was sure it was not my imagination. I was drawn to her, a lot. And for some reason, I couldn't for the life of me explain why.
We lay entangled in each other's arms, our breathing gradually slowing down. I hadn't penetrated her, not yet, I wanted to give her time to get used to it and not rush her at all. This was just the appetizer.
She didn't seem to mind either, the fear ok her face was replaced by curiosity and a little bit of contentment. The room was filled with a comfortable silence, the air heavy with the weight of what we had just shared.
In that moment, I realized that Methis had ignited something within me, something I had thought was lost forever. And as I looked into her eyes, I couldn't help but wonder what this newfound connection meant for both of us. Or whether there was even a connection at all.
She lay prone next to me. Her face is peaceful.
That face.
I couldn't forget it, no matter how I tried. The resemblance was so uncanny, I often wondered if someone somewhere, some naughty prankster or with or even the moon goddess herself was playing some kind of cruel joke with me. But I didn't have time to think about it, or even bargain. I was thirty five, I had just two more years, my time with her was nearly up. My chance to give an heir to the pack, someone with my blood, someone who would hopefully keep everything running as smoothly as possible when I was gone.
And this young human girl, with the face that intrigued me, traumatized me and scared me all at once. This young human girl who didn't even want to be here at all, who had to be forced by the selfishness of her weird stepmother. She was my only chance, it sounded almost too comical to be true.
The fate of an entire pack, rested on the slender shoulders of Methis Delis. I couldn't help but let out a small chuckle.
She raised her eyebrow, staring at me, "What is so funny?" Her voice was small and weak, panting a little. Whether it was for what we had just done or if she was just that scared, I couldn't tell for sure, but I decided to get it over with as soon as possible.
I shrugged, "Nothing, nothing..." I leaned forward, grabbing her waist and pulling her into me, planting another deep kiss. I felt her surrender in my arms.
Sliding a hand under her gown, I felt her heat almost scorch me.
She was ready.
Methis Delis POV
His muscles were big. Like really massive, and has his hands fumbled under me, I felt myself get progressively wetter as I grasped at his arms, trying to steady myself and slow the shaking of my body as my joints basically turned to butter under his touch.
I was losing control pretty quickly.
Seemingly sensing my readiness, he quickly stripped himself of his underwear, finding mine too as he rolled on top of me, his lips seeking out my exposed throat which he kissed greedily. I moaned out loud, feeling myself get hotter as he ground against my crush while my hands clutched hard at the bedsheets.
Then suddenly, I felt his erection, hard as steel, push up against my groin, and panic instantly shot through me.
I tried to be brave, to be the perfect partner and bear the pain, but instead of its own accord, I felt my legs shut close and refuse to open.
"No." I heard myself muttering, "No, please."
My eyes were shut tight, my legs too as I shrunk into myself. I heard him grunt in frustration, trying to push harder as he slathered some ointment down my legs to lubricate it, but I wouldn't budge.
Then as soon as it started, he rolled off me. I kept my eyes shut for a while, trying to stop the tears from flowing, and when I opened, I felt him glaring at me in the darkness, his eyes furious.
