“I have little left in myself -- I must have you. The world may laugh -- may call me absurd, selfish -- but it does not signify. My very soul demands you.” ― Jane Eyre ---- (Mikayla) He sat at the edge of my bed, with darkness as our only companion. There was only the soft glow of moonlight to dissipate the darkness in the room. He smelled like gold wolven whiskey, and August. So familiar, so addictive... And my heart felt strangely calm, but there was also a sting... For now, this was not my story. This was Samaya's and August's story. I think. Me? I am the other woman for now. The one who is trying to break up their story. But... I want this story to be mine, and I will do whatever I have to. I will break every rule, every law, to get that. Icouldn't be the only one who always did everything, who had to fight constantly for him. He had to fight back for me. I was going to give him time. Until then, I would take him like this, in the dark, in secret, in sin. "And that mouth of yours, so sweet and yet the words that come out of it..." his fingers trailed down my shoulder. "What have you got to say for yourself?" "And you like it, Alpha. So don't pretend like this is all me..." He always held himself back, however much he could, even when I tested his limits, because... he was a gentleman. Eh! Whatever! "Well, I want your f*cking mouth on me, too." "You ever think, Mikayla, before you talk?" the big bad Alpha growled. "Well..." I trailed. "No." I turned around and he pulled my body tighter against his chest with a groan, as if he couldn't bear not to touch me. He pushed my hands up my head and held them there with one of his hands, as his dark eyes scanned me. He continued to kiss my lips, as if he couldn't get enough of it, enough of me. He bit my lips, licked it as if he was soothing it and then bit again, harder. I opened my mouth as he proceeded to kiss me with a wild hunger that made me euphoric. And then his wolf, Blaze, who was nicknamed the Beast by me, snarled at me softly as his eyes darkened further. His long canines glistened in saliva and moonlight. "You stupid girl..." he growled. "You are so much trouble," he grunted under his breath. After all the secrets I knew, I should fear him. But in reality, I didn't. "Oh Blaze, you like trouble... don't you?" I goaded and the half-transformed wolf huffed. He was still resisting, but we both knew it was only a matter of time. He shook his head. He looked angry, and I knew what would happen when the wolf got angry. He bared his teeth at me. I knew he hated the power I had over him. He shook his fur and then he shifted fully. "Going for a run, Blaze? Don't get into any trouble!" I snarked, and he bumped against my leg, making me fall on the bed and then he leaped through the windows, running away. "You can run, Blaze, I will catch you, just as I have caught August." I knew he heard me. His howl echoed through the pack land of the obsidian moon, over the tall green and red trees that littered our kingdom. Euretya. When I first met August and his wolf, months ago, I was aTainted. And he was my powerful Alpha stepbrother, with a ready-made mate. And I wanted him with everything in me. It was forbidden, it was illicit. It was outrageous. I closed my eyes as I sat on the bed. I started thinking about how this had all started. This f*cking mess. But this was a mess. It all started when my mother walked in during breakfast. My dad and I were sitting at the table, fighting over the delicious Mangosteen fruits, one of the rarely grown varieties here in Euretya. I grabbed one from dad and broke the hard outer shell to reach in and pluck out the snow-white flesh of the fruit. My mom, who would have chuckled by this point, hadn't. She looked really wary as she looked at my dad, her eyes guilty and ashamed. "I found my mate." ----- Story Setting: This story is set in a supernatural, magical world called Euretya. Euretya is a kingdom where every supernatural being lives and loves and wars. It exists in an alternate dimension, on the same time-line as our normal Earth. It is a wild place with wild beasts roaming the forests, powerful Lycans hunting for their love and mate, dragons disembarking on a distant journey, witches casting spells because of boredom. Each clan in Euretya has a different realm, a different ruler for each realm. (Imagine earth with different countries, different cities.. except each country is ruled by various supernatural beings.) People with no power live here in Euretya, too, but they are called 'Tainted' as they are not given the power.
