Devour Me

The Devil Likes Red Ch 1 cont

Eero

I gazed at the hybrid woman who lay naked, wrapped snuggly within my fur. She was mine…all mine…my mate. She didn’t know it yet and it would stay like that until it was time to claim her. Avalon Lupine descended from a long line of werewolves, protectors of the dark forest and its inhabitants. But she was special….different…There had been whispers through the dark that spoke of a ruthless queen, a powerful queen that protected the territory with a fierceness no one had seen previously.

Beings like me, eternal beings that have been here before the dawn of time have ruled, dominated and created chaos throughout the millenia. Nearly a thousand years ago, we were all put to sleep, our power…contained while we slept. I’m still unsure how that was possible…but it was and I was determined to find out more and how our cages came to be broken. Questions…so many questions swirled through my dark, depraved mind. But one glance at my mate and all those worries vanished.

She was unlike anything I had ever seen. Skin so pale it was the color of blush tinted snow. Eyes that were hooded, seductive and cold held irises the color of clover that faded into a ring of red and orange around her pupils. It was breathtakingly beautiful. Her lips were full and a dark shade of pink. And her hair….it was long, ebony locks that flowed right below her waist. I had watched in breathless anticipation as she had undid her myriad of braids to let it flow around her naked body. One day I would have my hands in those silken strands.

For the time being, I would enjoy teasing her, building her need for me until it was as desparate and depraved as my own need for her. She would know the overwhelming insanity a mate felt for her other self. The driving need to claim, to love, to protect.

Awake Avalon. It is time to go.

I used our bond to speak to her. Long eyelashes fluttered open to reveal those unique eyes. They found mind.

“When did I fall alseep?” she asked.

I put you to sleep. You needed to rest.

“I figured as much.” Her tone was short, irritated and I couldn’t help but chuff a breathy chuckle. I watched as she dressed but before she could put her mask on I stopped her.

You will feed from me to replenish your strength.

Her eyes narrowed on me and she used our bond to respond.

You know what I am. Not a question but an accusation. I only bared my teeth in a feral smile as acknowledgement. Slowly, I transformed into my shadow form, solidifying myself just enough that she could make out the outline of my body. Taking a step into her personal space, I loved that I towered over her. My hand came out to grip her chin.

Drink. You do not have a choice in this.

Her eyes flashed as her fangs elongated. I knew she would obey in this. With a sure grip, she reached up to the space above my heart and proceeded to sink her fangs into my flesh. She would not be able to see the expression of ectasy on my face for my shadow form showed nothing but my form. I held back a grunt of pleasure as she fed.

Good girl, I purred. When she gently released her fangs, she licked the spot with her tongue. f**k that felt amazing. It made me long for the feel of her tongue on my c**k. In the next instant I had transformed back to my wolf form. Avalon, understanding my silent order, turned on her heel, pulling her hood and mask up to cover her face in shadows, and began walking back the way she came. Back to her castle and back to her throne.
