A chill went down my spine, the moon was shining down on me. Howling in the distance. Someone was calling for me. It was dark but the moonlight showed me more than enough. I felt strangely free. A huge wolf, that looked just like the one on the water feature in the main foyer, walked towards me out of the shadows of the trees. She spoke with the softest voice.
“Samara, I’ve been calling to you for years. You are the last of your line. You are destined for great things. You must accept what you are, and accept the change. I will be here to guide you always.”
“Who are you?” I asked, but it came out more like a whisper.
“I have many names. But I am Selene, the goddess of the moon. The goddess of the change. I have guided your kind for thousands of years. Through wars, disease, and modernization. I am here to protect and guide you.” She answered.
“You must accept the change Samara, but for now you must wake up!”
My eyes jolted open and the study spun around me. Theo and Addison were next to me looking concerned and bracing me on each side. They said nothing for a moment, and Theo and I locked eyes.
It was as if nothing else existed in that moment. Whatever that necklace was holding back inside of me was free, and it wanted Theo so badly. He kneeled his head down and pressed his forehead to mine. Our breath in sync, and escalating at a very quick rate.
“Addison, a moment alone. please.” He said with a very serious tone.
She disappeared from the study without hesitation.
He pulled my face up to his, exposing my neck. He traced his finger down my neck.
“You are mine, and only mine.” He said as a moan escaped my mouth.
He quickly scooped me up and sat me onto his desk, knocking over everything in the process. His arms wrapping around me and his mouth tracing along my neck towards my chin. My hands slid up under his shirt with some unfamiliar strength, his shirt buttons flying across the room in every direction. I opened his shirt exposing his chest, it was covered in tattoos. He leaned back and grabbed my shirt and pulled it over my head and then laid me back on his desk kissing and licking me all the way down my neck, chest, and stomach as he worked on unbuttoning my jeans. My hands grasped his head and entwined in his hair. He teased me around my underwear as my jeans slid onto the floor. I continued to moan which only made him tease me more aggressively.
He stood up and leaned over me looking into my eyes, one hand above my shoulder on his desk and the other around my face. His fingers started sliding down along my body sending chills all over me. I felt trapped in his gaze, but didn’t want to look away. His fingers started entering me slowly. He didn’t once look away but growled under his breath.
“You’re so wet my love, I want to taste you.”
I was trembling under his touch, moaning, and wanting more. He added another finger and kept going rhythmically sending me right to climax. He pulled his fingers up to his mouth and licked them and let out a slight moan.
“Good girl.” He said as he leaned down over me brushing the hair out my face.
I felt like I couldn’t catch my breath. That was amazing. I wanted more!
I reached up to grab him but he lightly grabbed my hand.
“We need to wait before we continue Samara.” He said.
His words bringing me right back to reality, I quickly sat up almost hitting my head off of his.
“I’m uh so sorry!! I don’t know what came over me.”
“It’s okay, but I think I would like to continue this on a different note.” He replied.
“I feel an overwhelming pull towards you. And your scent. You smelled really good before, but now it’s almost intoxicating.” I told him.
“Yes, it will be like that now. It seems as though your wolf is no longer suppressed. It’s a lot to take in now for you Samara.”
I gathered my shirt and pulled my pants back on. I almost felt embarrassed, slutty kind of.
“I’m really trying to wrap my head around what the hell happened in here today. I feel different. What just happened was nice, really nice. But I can’t help but feel like things are moving out of my control at this point. I think I need to get a breath of fresh air. I need to go home, or well to my hotel anyways.” I said.
Theo looked at me confused, but also as though he understood how I was feeling.
“I really don’t like the idea of letting you out of my sight now that I finally have you. Other wolves will be able to smell you now and you are not officially marked as mine. They will be wanting to mark you. I don’t like thinking about that.” He scoffed.
“I think I can take care of myself. I just met you, and you don’t f*****g own me!” I shouted.
He really didn’t like the tone I took with him, his eyes glazed over a light amber color from his normal green and he clenched his fists. I could see him holding his frustration back.
“Let Rick take you back to your hotel at least.” He suggested.
He stepped toward me as he adjusted his ripped shirt over his shoulders. He towered over me and leaned down and as much as I wanted to back away, he kissed me.
Theo didn’t even give me a chance to decline his offer and was already texting Rick to get a car ready to take me to my hotel.
Once in the car it was a very awkward ride over to my hotel. Rick seemed to be a nice guy. Slightly older, with a very 90’s hair cut with a middle part and some light gel to style it. He was clean-shaven and talked very gentleman-like.
“Here we are miss” Rick said as he stopped the car and started to get out of his seat.
He quickly walked around the outside of the car to open my door for me when he suddenly put his nose to the air.
“Miss, I’m afraid something isn’t right here.” He shut the door almost in my face.
I saw him pull out his phone and make a call as he headed into the hotel.
I climbed over to his seat and unlocked the door and ran after him into the hotel. I ran to the right towards the stairway which was the opposite of where Rick was and headed directly for our room on the 3rd floor.
Room 309. I caught a scent of iron and Kota’s perfume she always wore. My whole body ached at what my senses were telling me at that moment.
Just as Rick appeared next to me as I opened the door to my room, all I could see was blood. Kota’s blood in a puddle on the floor next to her lifeless body.
