CURSED TO BE YOURS- I Swapped Bodies With the Alpha King

Can't Admit This Feels Good

CHAPTER 6

Lyra's POV

I opened the door, forcing Malrik's neutral expression to behold Selena standing by the door in tears. I froze for a moment, unsure of how to react to the unexpected sight of her tears.

She sweeps in, tears streaming down her face while I shut the door behind us. She stopped suddenly, facing me.

"Malrik, what are you doing?" she sobs, walking closer to me. She pressed herself against my chest. I struggled not to pull away, patting her back awkwardly. She pulled slightly away after a moment of silence and looked up. "Everyone is talking." She replied.

I expected that already. The scene earlier was enough reason for them to discuss the Wolf king.

"Selena, I–"

"They said you spent the trial talking to that woman." She replied, pointing to the other part of the room. "They keep claiming that you... that you desire her." She yelled, in tears.

I stared at her blankly, trying to figure out what Malrik would have done in that state. I couldn't think of any, instead I pulled her closer again.

"I don't desire her," I cleared my throat. "I just didn't want her to die. It was... mercy." I replied, simply in Malrik's voice.

"Really?" Selene asked, her hands sliding up my chest. I held her gaze steadily, silently willing her to see that I meant my word. "Then prove it." She replied.

"What?" I asked, masking the surprise that flickered beneath my tone.

"Yes, you have to prove to everyone that she is nothing but someone you only pitied." She said, "Send her away, banish her." She added.

I was a threat to her bond. I would have probably asked for the same if I was in her case but little did she know about what was going on.

If only she knew her mate was the one she was willing to banish from the pack that way.

"I don't think that is good enough," I replied, hoping I sounded a bit close to how Marlik himself spoke with her.

"Why do you think so? Or you don't want to do it yourself?" She rushed. "If you don't want to l, then let Thane kill her. You should save our bond."

A sick feeling stirred in my gut as I heard that but I nodded quickly, avoiding any suspicion.

"Fine. Yes," I rushed. "I'll handle it. She'll be... dealt with," I added.

"I knew it," Selene said, smiling through her tears. "Thank you, my love." She added.

I made to let go of her, noticing how glad she was about our agreement but she pulled even closer, rising on her toes. I wrapped her arm around my neck, pulling me in Malrik's body down for a kiss.

Gosh.

I almost pulled away from the kiss but recalled how special she was to Malrik. Also, noting the misunderstanding she would have had. I stood still allowing her soft lips suck on mine gently, she kept tilting her head moaning into the kiss but I felt nothing.

I felt no warmth. It lacked passion. It was all wrong.

Selene presses closer, her hands sliding into my hair. That made me feel even more uncomfortable. Shouldn't there be some spark?

There was none.

"Selene," I called, pulling away gently. She raises her to stare at me surprised I disengaged that quick but I had to anyway. It wasn't right for me. "Selene, I need to... prepare for the council meeting," I replied, knowing that was the best way to send her away.

"Huh." She replied.

"We'll talk later," I added, faking a reassuring smile.

Selene pouts but nods. "Don't make me wait too long, my king." She replied and I nodded. She hugged me once again and pulled away while I ushered her out with a strained smile and slammed the door.

I leaned against the door, exhaling. I waited for Malrik to storm out of the bathroom but he didn't. What could he be doing in there while everything is that silent.

I had to walk properly into the room when a sudden wave of heat crashed through my body.

My n*****s, Malrik's n*****s tightened, and a sense of arousal floods through my body.

"What the—"

What on earth is going on with me? I made to move when the sensation intensified, I felt phantom hands cupping my breasts, with thumbs circling my n*****s.

Could he-

I waited no more as I stumbled toward the bathroom, pushing the door open. I stopped noticing Malrik standing before the mirror, he was completely naked in my own body.

What was he doing?

I waited, watching his hands cup my breasts, kneading them slowly. His eyes were half-closed and a low growl in his throat.

"Fuck." He muttered. "How does a crazy woman like you have a body this perfect?" He asked, sensing my presence. His thumbs brush over my n*****s and his touches sent a shiver down my spine.

"Stop," I rasped, moving toward him. "Do you—you're messing with my head." I yelled, unable to bear the sensation I was feeling anymore. He had to stop before I completely lost it.

Malrik's eyes snap open, meeting mine in the mirror.

A wicked smirk played on his face while he spoke. "You deserve to feel confused." He replied. "You ruined my kingdom today." He added, his hands didn't stop—one slid down my stomach.

My breath hitches. "Malrik—"

"Do you feel this?" He murmured, still staring through the mirror. He pushed one breast up and lowered his mouth to the n****e, sucking.

Damn!

His tongue flicking and teeth grazing slowly.

"Hun," I moaned, unconsciously. My massive body shuddering and the c**k between my legs is rock hard. I stumbled closer. "That's... that's my body." I said, telling him to stop.

"I know," Malrik growls, now facing me. "And it's f*****g intoxicating." He replied. His hand slides between my legs, fingers teasing.

Good heavens. I grabbed the sink, trying my best to control the heat.

"You should," I paused, knowing that wouldn't work. "We need to—we can't—"

"Can't what?" Malrik's voice came out rough as he circles my c**t. "Can't admit this feels good?" He demanded, pushing a finger inside.

The heat I felt grew more and my vision blurs instantly.

I lurched forward, grabbing Malrik's face, my own face and I kissed him desperately. Our lips crashed together while he sucked on my lips hungrily while I did the same kissing him like I was made for it.

The world tilts slowly, like falling through water. Malrik pulls back and staring down at me, lust dissipating from his eyes with his golden eyes blazing.

I gasp, feeling the cool air on my bare skin, the ache between my thighs. I could feel Malrik's large hands on my waist, his mouth descending to my breast and he sucked it hard.

My body shook as his hand slid between my legs. It felt cold and sensation until his fingers thrust inside me.

"Malrik!" I screamed, sobbing.

He growls against my skin, thumb circling my c**t as he pumps his fingers. He raised his head to face me looking into my eyes. "Say my name again."

"Malrik, please—" I begged.

He pulls his hand away abruptly with a teasing glint in his eyes and staggers back, separating from him. That moment again, I felt the world spin.

I blinked rapidly, towering over him once more and back in his body. Malrik stumbles back in my body, chest heaving, his eyes wide with fury.

"f**k!" He roared, and I stepped back a bit and he stormed past me out of the bathroom.

I stood still, dazed and confused at a time. My body still hummed at the reaction to his touch. I stood still for a while and staggered to the mirror, gripping the sink.

My reflection flickers in the mirror and the goddess appears in the glass, smirking. My eyes almost popped out of the socket while she spoke.

"Well, that was interesting."
