Finding Calypso

Under the Moon

Chapter Nineteen

~Calypso~

I woke suddenly when we pulled off the highway onto a bumpy road. My dream I was having felt important, but every second that I was awake I could feel it slip away. I tried to recall it, but it was gone. My trembling muscles were now the only thing I could think of.

My breathing was labored, and I couldn't control it. I felt limp, and I tried to speak but my teeth just chattered. We came to a stop and the man that held me in his arms demanded everyone in the car to leave.

They all exited the vehicle and we just waited there for a moment.

He opened the door and picked me up in his arms. I put my arms around his neck to hold on as he began to run. I could feel the cool air around me as the sun begins to set. He ran until I couldn't feel the presence of any other life.

He slowed and came to a stop when I smelt something intoxicating. My eyes remained closed, but I let my nose follow the scent. When I feel it brush across the warm neck above me.

I blow the air out of my nose when I realize it's coming from him. He lets out a little chuckle.

I try to open my eyes, but my head falls back like it is weighted. I try to push him away, but I lack any strength. He gently lays me down. I feel him lift my shirt revealing my skin, and I try to stop his advances. Then that is when I feel the moon on my skin. I feel its illumination shining upon me. Rejuvenating me with each second. I feel his hands graze down my legs to my ankles where he pushed up my pants legs allowing the glow of the moon to touch more of my body. This time I don't attempt to stop him.

I feel him beside me as I try to breathe.

I know I'm slipping away. When I try to say

"James"

In attempt to call out for him one last time. It is his venom I need. His essence. I feel one tear escape my closed eyes. Then a hand wraps around the back of my neck lifting my limp body.

" It will pass" I hear a whisper in my ear, and lips come in contact with my neck.

My heart flutters.

"Is it James?" I thought.

"Bite me" I somehow muster up enough energy to say.

"Calypso" I hear my name said back to me spoken with a soft tone that says, "I can't"

I feel his teeth settle just above my collar bone as he is tempted to, and I reach my trembling hand up to hold the side of his face.

I could feel rugged features underneath my palm. A sharp jaw lined with scruff of a slightly grown out beard. I knew then this was not the face of James. Who is always soft and smooth.

I felt the urge to push this man away but instead my fingers trailed up into his unkempt hair. I felt him snuggle his face into my neck, and we stayed like this for what felt like hours.

When my beast awakens furious with me. A growl comes from my own chest generated purely by my beasts anger towards me.

When, to my surprise, a growl responds back to me from the man I had almost forgotten was holding my body. My beast immediately takes control, and grabs a handful of his hair and pulls his neck back to look at him in the eye. He smiles back, showing all his teeth.

My beast begins to sniff him fiercely. I can see the glee of joy across this man's face as my beast and I both begin to realize the same thing.

I glare at him, but I can't hide my smile. The way he makes me feel. The instant connection. I pushed him off of me, and he was surprised at my strength. I stood up and he swiftly approached me. He towered well above me, and now as I look back into his eyes I can see only his beast. Wild behind them.

I take a step forward like I was warning him. Now with all the confidence my beast brings me. He takes a step closer as well and leans his head down towards my face. Leaving us only centimeters apart.

I knew I was superior to him, but he didn't back down. Instead he leaned in closer, taking on my challenge. His chest was now moving up and down as he breathes hard against me.

His hand reaches up and grabs my arm hard enough, it hurts under the pressure, but I don't allow myself to flinch.

I could feel our bond solidifying under the moon. My beast finds amusement in fighting it and watching how it infuriates our mate. Even though she knows she can't deny him.

"Accept it" he says in a hard tone that is full of anger and lust.

I reach up with one hand and grabs his throat tight. He pushes forward against me causing me to take a step back, and my grip only tightened around his throat. He wraps his arms around my lower back to prevent me from retreating any further.

He's waiting for me. Waiting for me to mark him. The last thing that will complete our bond. My hand releases his neck, and drops down to his t-shirt collar. I pull it down to see his crisp cut collar bone.

His chest pumping harder between us.

I move my mouth quickly to the area and stop just before my lips touch his skin. I felt his body brace for my mark as I teased him. He responded with a growl and I immediately sunk my teeth in.

He grabs my hair and yanks it back, revealing my bare neck and he fiercely sinks his teeth into me. I claw the side of his face as he bit deeper into me.

He lets up on his bite as his hands run down my back and over my butt and down in-between my legs where he lifts me up into his embrace. He holds me there with our foreheads touching staring me in the eyes.

In an instance we have become one. I can feel his every emotion as he does mine. I can feel his pain that still lingers in his heart from my rejection. From seeing me with another man. Smelling his scent all over me. Having to lay his mark across my neck where the puncture wounds from James still linger.

I can feel his passion. His need to f**k me, and how it takes everything in him to hold his beast back from taking me right now. He can smell I'm a virgin and it makes him ache uncontrollably.

I know he is reading me as I am him. There is no longer anything I can hide from him. Even though he can't hear my thoughts word for word. He knows I want him.

"Tell me too" he says, and I don't respond.

"Tell me and I will" he says again, breathless.

My heart jumps knowing there is nothing I can do to hide. Hide what I want.

"I…." That's all I said.

That's all I needed to say, and he laid me down. I went to lift my shirt, but he grabbed a hold of it and ripped it off. I rolled him over on his back and I put his hips between my legs. When I felt how hard he was. I stood up above him while he laid underneath me. With the moon behind me shining on my bare back blessing our eternal relationship.

I step over him, and turn my back to him to face the moon. And I hear him sit up to watch me. My body is a silhouette in the moon's light. I reach my hands in front of me where he can't see and I begin to unbuckle my pants.

He stands up and walks up behind me and grabs my hips. He slides my pants down just past my hips revealing my butt when I feel him push his body against me.

He leans down and begins to kiss my neck. He slides both his hands from my hips to my now exposed areas. I feel his fingers begin to explore me.

I let my head fall back into his chest. As I give him soft sweet moans. I turn around and reach my hand over his shoulder, pulling up the back of his shirt to get it off him, so I can see his body.

I pull his shirt over his head to see tribal tattoos covering half of his chest going down one arm. His wide shoulders make him look powerful and intimidating. He cuts my oogling off by taking his hands to my waist band just above my knees and pulling them to the ground. I step out of them leaving my shoes behind as well.

He hesitates to stand back up being so close to something he wants so badly to taste. He looks up at me for permission, but then flashes a look that says I don't care. Before he grabs my legs and brings me forward to him. He lifts one of my legs and puts it over his shoulder while he holds me steady.

I'm so wet and throbbing down there I'm embarrassed, but that only makes his beast wild with lust. He embraces me taking in my taste as I try to hold back screams, but I fail when he thrusts his fingers deep in me.

At that touch he couldn't take it any longer, and pulled me down to the ground with him. I laid in the grass, and spread my legs inviting him in. He nearly rips his jeans open when he lets himself out. The sight of it only made me open my legs more. And I beg him

"Come closer"

He growls and in an instant he is on top of me and I feel him thrust inside.

I scream unexpectedly at the pain and pleasure. He held nothing back and started pounding away at me as I moaned so loud I could here it echo through the forest.
