Tame The Flame

Tame or to be tame

Seraphina stood in a small clearing, absently weaving flames between her fingers like golden thread. Her amber eyes studied the wild beauty around her - so different from her ordered kingdom. She could hear Ava and Lima thrashing through the undergrowth in the distance and smiled. Let them play their games. She knew the real predator would come to her.

Keal step out from jungle and stare at Seraphina with Tilts head "Your pretty guards called me an animal. Should I be offended or flattered?" Seraphina Raises an eyebrow "Flattered, if you can back it up. Offended if that's all you are." as she looking at the body of Keal and her heart start racing when see the muscle and the golden tan along with sweat dripping down his hard rock chest. Flames spiral up her arms "My 'pretty guards' aren't wrong. The question is whether this animal is worth my time." she biting her lower lips as she finish her words bold. Kale raise his eyebrows in impression. "You choose your words very carefully and very preparing but You never ready for what I can do before your next words." Keal start walking close to Seraphina didn't step back as Keal approached, though every instinct screamed at her to run. Instead, she tilted her chin up slightly, meeting his gaze with steady eyes that betrayed none of the rapid calculations racing through her mind.

"Careful words keep people alive," she said quietly, her voice carrying a calm that didn't quite reach her tensed shoulders. "But you're right about one thing - I'm not ready for whatever game you think you're playing. The question is, are you ready for the consequences of starting it?"

Her hand remained relaxed at her side, but her weight shifted almost imperceptibly, ready to move if needed. Before she could have an chance to move Keal was able to snitch her by neck in blink of eyes. Seraphina jumped, but couldn't move with Keal's giant hand around her neck. Seraphina's Heart was racing, but she remained still in his hand. She could feel every inch of aura flying off him, she want to get closer so she can feel every inch of his muscular body but yet feel miles away even when they are 2 feet apart. " Ava and lima...are they the strongest beside you?" Keal pull Serphina closer while still holding her neck and start sniffing her, Serphina can feel the tightened around her neck and she breath hitched as she felt his warm breath on her neck. his lips brushing against her skin. She could smell the earthy scent of the jungle on him, mingling with her own perfume. she lift her eyes to meet his ocean eyes and purred when she feel the tightness in her neck. " Ava and Lima.." She breath slowly like an gasp and closing her eyes as keal has his nose buried in her hair. He could smell the sweet scent of her perfume mixed with her natural musk. " They're my personal bodyguards, my most trusted warriors." She moaned softly as he continued to sniff her, her leg spreading slightly. " they're also my closest friend, like my sisters." she open her eyes and still meet kale ocean eyes. "Good..." kael respond while sniffing her neck bone. Seraphina trying so hard not to gasp and moan loud and trying not let keal see her summon her fire power but seem not working very good for her since something new and dangous is right in front of her yet her power wont't respond to her. "Yes," Seraphina answered softly, watching his nose wrinkle slightly as he inhaled deeply, sniffling her like an animal. "They're the best fighter after me. Beautiful, lethal." She laughed softly, "gods help any man who tries to bed of them." she bit her lips as his nose move down to under collarbone, sniffing. "to answer your question, yes. They're the strongest women here beside me." She watched his ocean eyas start shining like passion. " Why?.. Are you going be jealous if one man take both?" Keal stop his track of sniffing and look into Seraphina eyas and shake his head very softly. " No man will take them because they will be mine as you are" Seraphina's breath caught for just a fraction of a second before her expression hardened like steel. The possessive certainty in his voice sent a chill down her spine, but she refused to let it show.

"I belong to no one," she said, her voice low and dangerous, each word deliberate as a blade. "And neither do they. You can shake your head all you want, Keal, but wanting something doesn't make it yours."

She took a deliberate step forward instead of back, closing the distance between them until she could see the flecks of color in his eyes. "You're mistaking me for someone who breaks easily. That's going to be your first mistake."

Her hands remained steady, but there was something fierce burning behind her gaze now - not fear, but defiance. "Whatever twisted claim you think you have, you're about to learn just how wrong you are." then she remember that her flame not working! yet she show she's not panic about it. Keal's lips curved into a slow, knowing smile as he watched the fire in her eyes. He didn't step back when she moved closer - if anything, he seemed to welcome it, like a predator who enjoyed when prey showed fight.

"There's that spirit," he murmured, his voice dropping to barely above a whisper. "The same fire that should be burning in your palms right now... but isn't."

His eyes never left hers as he tilted his head slightly, studying her face with an intensity that felt invasive. "Did you think I wouldn't notice? The way your fingers flex just so when you're angry, reaching for power that won't come. The slight tension in your shoulders when you realize you're... ordinary."

He leaned in just enough that his words were for her alone. "You can keep pretending you're not afraid, Seraphina. Keep telling yourself you don't need what's been taken from you. But we both know the truth now, don't we?"

His smile widened, predatory and patient. "Without your flames, you're just a woman with sharp words. And I've always been good at handling sharp things." Seraphina breath caught in her throat as she stared into keal's ocean eyas filled with hunger and possession. "is that so?" She whispered." you think two fierce warrior like them would submit to one man?" She tilted her head slightly. "Maybe they would." her voice dropped lower. " But only if you can prove yourself worthy." she ran her her hand down his hard rock chest teasingly. "can you handle three women like us?" she keep feeling his chest.Keal's breath hitched slightly at her touch, but his eyes darkened with something more dangerous than desire. His hand came up to cover hers against his chest, not to push it away but to hold it there, his grip gentle but possessive - fingers intertwining with hers rather than restraining.

"Careful, little flame," he said, his voice rough with restrained intensity. "You're playing a game you might not want to win."

His free hand came up to trace along her jawline, thumb brushing against her skin with deceptive gentleness. "Three women like you?" His smile was all predator now. "I've been preparing for this moment longer than you know. Your friends... they're already more vulnerable than they realize."

He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a whisper that sent shivers down her spine. "But you're the prize, Seraphina. The one I've wanted from the beginning. This little show of yours - trying to seduce your way out of trouble - it's almost insulting."

His fingers traced slowly over her knuckles where their hands met. "I don't need to prove myself worthy. I just need to prove that you have no other choice."
