Chapter 004
Maverick’s POV
The dire pleasure of blood etched into the core of my veins as I ran the bottle of wine down my bare torso. The transpiration of my mate’s plight made me lose all of my senses.
I could still hear the undertone of their yells linger in my ear. If I had not been there, they could have harmed her.
My mate!!
And there she was on my bed, weeping like there was no tomorrow. The mere thought of her caused my head to throb.
What was the moon goddess thinking about giving me a human mate? One that was as feeble as a plate.
With a groan, I sent the bottle flying to the other side of my room. My beta warned me not to do anything crazy, but yeah, I must have gone insane when I pulled her leg and slithered her body against me.
“Signor…” She muttered weakly, still looking at me with those deep expressive eyes of hers. My wolf, silver, wasn’t having any of her seduction anymore.
Impulsively, I bowed down my head to hers, when I captured her mouth in a kiss that was both savage and controlling. Silver must have been driven by the lust and toxic scent of our mate for me to suddenly suck her dry.
To give her time to breathe, I withered away, only to find tears streaming down her eyes.
She was in agony. I felt it.
“We should give her some time, Silver” I linked to my wolf, who returned my words with a dark growl of disapproval.
“She is our mate. We ought to leave our mark on her," he roared.
“I am not mating with her, and that is final. Don’t even f**k with me, tonight.” I stated as a matter of fact.
“Oh! When did she become a gentleman? You murdered three men tonight because I helped you. You fool!!” He countered back.
I hated the disagreement between my wolf and me because he always came victorious. However, I had made up my mind not to touch her, not when she was this weak and drunk.
“Please, Signor…”
“Please hold me…”
“Please, it hurts terribly. I need it to stop. Help me, Signor…”
Before Silver could taunt me with his sarcastic words, I blocked my mind and ran a hand through the space in my hair. I refused to succumb to this overwhelming desire, especially when my loin was hard.
I decided to leave the room, and when morning came, I would send her out of my place. I don’t need any distraction or entertainment, not from a human who meant nothing to me.
“Please, don’t leave, stay…”
“Where are you…am I not worthy enough to be by your side? Tell me…Thomas?”
“Why have you gone to the bosom of my mother? I am your wife, Thomas, and I love you. Please stay…make love to me.”
Wife!! Was she married?
Almost immediately, Silver growled at the sudden revelation.
“She belongs to us, not to some Thomas!! Mark her now!!”
I was still gobsmacked about getting involved with my wolf’s lament. The heat from her embrace and the way her hands encircled my waist, were all that hooked me.
“Please, make love to me. Make me forget the world… Make me forget everything, please. Just you and I,” She remarked. I was trying to rid my mind of my wolf’s thoughts, yet this woman was contradicting everything.
“f**k it all!!” I deadpanned and pushed her away to escape from the room, but before I had the chance to take a step out, she tiptoed and kissed my lips, an instinct due to her drunkenness.
“I want you, don’t go,” She deepened the kiss, and with a curse, I returned her agility.
Fuck! I wanted her. My wolf wanted her.

Serena’s POV
When I noticed the silhouette of my husband leaving the room, my heart broke into pieces. I don’t want him to leave me and run into the arms of my mother,
He was my husband. Mine!
Before he got the chance to leave me, I tiptoed and kissed him. When he failed to respond, I deepened the kiss, wrapping my arms around his neck.
With one year left of my life, I must bear him another child. I will do anything in my power, so he will stay by my side until death pulls us apart.
I was happy he reciprocated the kiss, and very soon, it turned fierce and erotic, his tongue invading, touching, stroking, and fluttering my stomach.
The fierceness of the kiss drugged me, excited and terrified me. He was sucking my mouth like a ferocious beast and I loved it.
I loved that he wanted me. If I hadn’t been on the impulse of the alcohol in my system, I would have taken the lead.
Triggering an even wild response, I clutched at his head, and pulled him closer to me, lacing my fingers through his damp black hair, feeling all giddy to finally be laid on his bed.
“Ahh, take me… I am all yours” I whispered into his ears.
“Don’t you dare regret this? You brought it upon yourself” I heard him growl; his voice laced with rascality. I felt my heart pounding. The next second, I was swung up by his pair of strong arms, the scent of his bare skin almost addicting.
He slid me down to his hot body, and quickly, I wrapped my legs around him. His arousal was hefty and magnificent. The touch of his lips on mine was powerful, more so that I had loss of breath.
“f**k! You taste sweet”
The contour of his body baptized my soul and I crazed his d**k. I needed him inside me, crushing more of my existence. I needed to forget the cruelty of his sins, and just be in his arms, forever.
“Ahh,” I arched my back against the wall.
How it happened so swiftly, I had no idea, but one moment we were standing in the middle of the bedroom, kissing. Pouring our entire soul into our desires, devouring one another. And then we were lying on the bed, and all of my clothes were gone.
His dark hypnotic eyes into mine, urgently. I shivered at his unfamiliar look.
Thomas never gazed at me like I was suitable and tantalizing. Now, I wondered, when had he become this big beside me?
“Thomas…you are my Thomas, right?” His face was a blur, but he smelled just like Thomas.
“Think of only me, Mate” His eyes blazed with an unquenchable fire that now burned my skin. I traced my fingertips to each curve of his cheeks.
“Mark me with your love. Take me however you want. End me” I knew I was influenced by alcohol, but I cared less. This man was my husband, anyway.
I saw the lust in his eyes.
He craved me. He wanted my body. He wanted to lose himself in me, beside me. And I am happy to oblige to his needs.
We battled ourselves into another intoxicating kiss.
