A Wild Flower Among Wolves

Encounter.

The hallways in the house were dimly lit with the soft glow of candlelight as we made our way towards the master bedroom. Kieran’s fingers intertwined mine as he led me further until we reached the furthest back bedroom in the house. It was also lit with soft candle light but it didn’t impact my vision of the room. The tall vaulted ceilings met in the middle where a beautiful chandelier was hanging, glistening from the flicker of the candle flames. All of the furniture looked hand crafted and the linens looked expensive. As soon as we passed the threshold Kieran shut the door behind us. As I turned to face him he wasted no time in pulling my body into his. Electricity sparked between our lips as we explored each other’s mouths. I couldn’t contain the moans escaping my lips between kisses. His hands seemed like they were searching endlessly which left me craving more.

In one motion he reached behind his head and effortlessly pulled off his shirt exposing his perfectly chiseled torso. He gently pushed me towards his bed where I clumsily stumbled onto it. He crawled over me letting our lips connect again before taking me by the waist and moving me into a more comfortable position on the bed. My dress felt like an inconvenience at this point as I wrapped my legs around his waist pulling him into me again. I eagerly reached towards his pants helping him unbutton and remove them. The zipper on my dress wouldn’t budge and I was a little afraid he was going to rip it off with excitement, luckily it came down and I was naked almost instantly. The heat between us was undeniable. He continued using his relentless tongue around each of my exposed n*****s before retreating between my legs. I could have orgasmed as soon as his tongue ran over my c**t but I did my best to maintain my dignity. He circled and sucked while he had both hands on my breasts and I couldn’t help but arch my back to assist him. My o****m rippled through my body like a shockwave. As I reached my peak, his mouth met mine again while his member entered me. I can’t describe the feeling of him inside me. He moved effortlessly in and out bringing me closer and closer to o****m again. As we climaxed in unison he shouted my name a little louder than I think even he expected.

*Knock knock*

“Shit..” I said in a panic trying to find where Kieran threw my dress.

“Bro it’s just me, put your pants back on and get out here.”

Kieran looked confused as he quickly redressed and helped me zip my temperamental zipper.

We quickly walked back into the kitchen hand in hand.

As I rounded the corner I could see Bo consoling a girl hunched over on the couch.

“What’s going on?” It came out of my mouth instinctively.

The girl on the couch lifted her head to look in my direction. The tears had made her makeup stain her face with watery black lines.

“Clo?” Her voice was weak and wavering.

“Poppy what the hell are you doing here? What happened?”

My always perfect Poppy was in shambles. Her clothes were ripped and tattered and her hair was all over the place.

“I .. I .. I don’t know Clo… I had a long break and I wanted to come suprise you.. when I got to your house you .. you.. you weren’t there.” Her tears started freely flowing again.

“I .. I .. I just went inside like I always do.. and.. someone else was in there Clo .. he.. he attacked me.”

My heart was pounding harder than it ever had before. I felt like my throat was closing. I ran to her. I wrapped my arms around her and brushed her hair away from her forehead. The floodgates let loose for the both of us.

“Poppy what did he do? How did you get away?” I kissed her on the forehead and pulled her into me.

“He.. he.. pinned me down.. I couldn’t get away.. Clo I couldn’t get away..” Poppy started hyperventilating as Bo came inwith a wet cloth for her face.

“He tried to r**e me Clo.. but.. but.. she saved me.” Her eyes averted to the left. For the first time I noticed a woman in the corner. She stepped from the shadows revealing herself and the visible tears streaming down her face as well.

“I should have been there faster..”

She was absolutely strikingly beautiful even with tears obstructing my vision. Her skin was coppery and soft, peppered with floral tattoos. Her hair was dark and straight flowing over her broad shoulders. Her native features were prominent and beautiful while her body showed strength.. honestly I even found myself a little attracted to her. She couldn’t take her eyes off Poppy.

Kieran’s voice boomed over us all.

“What the hell Tala are you ok?”

Tala straightened her shoulders and wiped any remaining tears from her eyes. As she stood fully erect I could tell she was at least 6 foot tall.

“I was on patrol around the perimeter when I sensed her arrival sir. I could feel she needed me sir but I ignored it to stay on post.. it’s my fault he got away sir.”

Tala’s eyes drifted to the ground.

Kieran quickly walked to face her and put a hand on her slumped shoulder.

“It’s ok Tala just tell us what you can .. I’m going to find him.. I’m going to find him and make he pay for what he’s done.”

Tala was responding to Kieran without ever breaking her gaze towards Poppy.

“Yes sir..”

As she exited Poppy’s entire demeanor changed. There were no more tears just confusion on her face.

“Where is she going?” If I didn’t know her better I would say Poppy had panic in her eyes.

“She’ll return shortly.. until she does I think we should all have a drink in the study to calm our nerves.” He looked at me with worry. I couldn’t help but feel the compulsion to ease his tension. I take Bo and Poppy by the hand and turn to follow Kieran. He nods and takes us to a hidden staircase below a tattered old tapestry.

We go through two locked doors before entering a massive library lined wall to wall with oak cabinets filled with hardcover books.

I pulled Poppy into me again. She might be taller than me but her head easily rested on my shoulder. Her sad blue eyes looked into mine,

“I couldn’t see his face Clo.. it was just shadowy and dark..”

My heart sank.
