Falling Into Ruin.

Fate

[Ciaran’s POV]

I lead my little mate through the bar and out toward the parking lot while everything in me screams to stop this and just leave her. However, unlike the first time we met, the bond feels so much stronger, and I can’t stop my wolf as it begs to have a taste of her. And frankly, this evening I wasn’t in the mood to be cautious, not when fate was continuing to bring her to me. However, there was something that didn’t make sense and that bugged the f**k out of me.

She recognized me and my threat.

Frowning, I reach my car and yank open the door to the backseat, and not wasting any time, I throw her inside and then climb in, slamming the door behind me. And once inside, I’m trapping her wrists between my hand, taking note of how f*****g tiny they feel in my grasp. All I had to do was squeeze a little, and they would break.

A human. I was mated to a f*****g human. Me. Mated to such a weak being. What kind of f*****g joke was this?

“Why?” I grunt, trying to make sense of what was happening. “Why is it you?”

As I speak, my little mate stares up at me, her eyes sparkling with many emotions ranging from scared to curious and settling on defiant, and that just stirs me up even more.

“What do you mean, ‘Why is it me?” She asks when I don’t speak. “I don’t understand what it is you’re trying to say.”

Of course you don’t. I growl, knowing good and f*****g well that humans weren’t aware that we existed, let alone did they know about the f*****g mate bond, but given how little caution she had around me and the looks of longing she would occasionally give me and the scent of her f*****g arousal that was beginning to swirl around me, I knew that she felt the bond between us. Maybe it wasn’t as strongly as me, but she felt it too, and her body was reacting to it just as mine was.

“How do you remember me?” I demand, deciding not to bother with my initial question.

It didn’t f*****g matter why she was the one meant for me since I was going to reject her in the end, but did that mean that I couldn’t taste her beforehand? Just the sight of her with another man pissed me off, and the thought of him getting to touch her and f**k her before me made my wolf crazy with greed.

Fuck, Ciaran, you’re being weak. I hiss inwardly, hating how undone I was becoming because of this mere human beneath me.

Fine. If I couldn’t control myself, then I would f**k her; I was certain after that I wouldn’t feel like this anymore.

“It doesn’t matter,” I mutter, cupping her chin with my free hand. “I guess this is fate saying that it’s time for me to collect my payment.”

“Wah…” she gasps, but stops as I slam my mouth against hers, letting her taste erupt on my tongue.

Instantly, my wolf begins to howl with desire from how f*****g good she tastes and smells and the way her lean, yet curvy body feels beneath me.

“Fuck.” I growl against her lips, pressing my knee against her warm cunt so that a beautiful moan escapes her lips that move with my own.

Everything she is doing just stirs me up even more, and before I can stop myself, I’m releasing her chin and shoving my hand beneath her shirt so that it can wrap around her plump breast.

“Wai… wait,” she gasps as I begin to knead it. “What are... What are we…”

“Shut up,” I growl, claiming her mouth with mine.

Just shut up and let me get this ridiculous f*****g longing out of my system. Once we finish, I’ll release and reject you so that your f*****g hold on me is gone and I don’t have to worry about you making me cave like this again. So, just shut the f**k up and let me have this.

“But…” she gasps while I grab her n****e and twist, making her body flinch and her back arch so she presses against me, allowing her warmth and that delicious f*****g energy from our bond to attack me, making me crazy like a damn fiend.

“Don’t tell me that you aren’t enjoying this.” I smirk, pulling away and taking in her flushed cheeks, her swollen lips, and her dark, desire-filled eyes. “Just look at you coming undone from just a mere kiss and some touching, but this isn’t half of what I intend to do with you, sweetheart, so I suggest you f*****g brace yourself because I’m going to ruin you here and now so that your body remembers me for as long as you live.”

Finished speaking, I grab the collar of her shirt and pull, ripping it entirely so that I have the perfect view of my little mate's heaving chest that is hidden beneath a lacy black bra.

“Mmmmm,” I growl, hooking a finger in the bra and slowly pulling it down, revealing her breasts little by little until they bounce free from the fabric entirely. “Fake is nice,” I murmur, grasping one in my hand. “But all natural is so much f*****g better. I love the way they bounce when I f**k my women into oblivion.”

Leaning down, I claim a n****e with my lips, taking it between my teeth and running my tongue along it while moans escape my little mate, who is no longer attempting to fight me. How can she be when she’s just as f*****g turned on as me, if not more? Just by her scent, I knew that she wanted me as much as I wanted her.

“What a naughty woman you are.” I chuckle, sliding a finger along her stomach until I reach the top of her pants. “Coming undone like this with a man you’ve only met twice.”

“I… I’m not…” She pants, but she doesn’t do a very good job of convincing me otherwise.

“You’re a terrible f*****g liar, sweetheart.” I chuckle, moving my finger beneath her pants. “But, if you want to lie, I won’t stop you. Just say the f*****g word, and I’ll stop what I’m doing right here and now.”

It was a lie. No matter what, I was going to f**k her and reject her tonight, but I wanted her consent and knew that she wouldn’t reject me. I could almost hear the words Take me, take me, take me, repeating in my head.

“So, what will it be? Will you stop trying to act like you don't want this, or will you let your desires take the lead?"
