Ian’s p. o. v
I stood next to my warrior who had half a glass of water mixed with wolfbane in his hand, his gaze was fixed on Sherry and so was mine.
She looked very miserable. Her lips were dry and cracked, her hair was a mess and her clothes were dirty. She was laying on the ground with her eyes closed looking very weak and pathetic.
“How long has she been like this?” I asked calmly.
“Since the day she was captured and brought back. Alpha, beta Neo told us not to give her food or water.” He answered.
“I see.” I whispered then took the glass cup from his hand.
“Sherry,” I called softly while I moved closer.
When she opened her eyes and looked at me furiously, I stopped moving and stood still. Her wolf was the one in control and she was furious with me and obviously Axel as well for treating them like trash.
It was funny how she was still acting up despite doing all that to us. If she and her human were truly sorry and regretful over what they had done, she would have been kissing my feet and begging for forgiveness, but no she chose to rather be stubborn till the end.
“Here.” I said then leaned in and put the glass cup on the ground next to her.
She forced herself to sit upright slowly while groaning in pain.
“What is this?” She asked in a cracked voice.
“Water.” I answered with a smile.
“Really?” She asked softly.
“Yes.” I answered.
She quickly grabbed the glass and took it to her mouth. She was about to take a sip when she stopped and looked at me.
“Do you think I’m stupid?” She asked coldly.
I folded my arms and shrugged. I didn’t give a damn whether she was intelligent or not. All I wanted was for her to disappear.
“My human may be slow in thinking or sensing anything, but I am not. This in my hand isn’t just water, it’s mixed with an overdose of wolfbane.” She spat.
I laughed softly then dropped my hands.
“So you mean to tell me you were the mastermind behind wanting me and Axel dead?” I asked seriously, her expression instantly softened and her eyes were filled with tears.
“How could you ever think so little of me Alpha? Never was there a day I had ever disrespected you or Axel! I loved and served you well, everything bad that later happened was all Sherry’s fault! I tried and tried to stop her but she couldn’t listen to me.” She answered as tears rolled down her cheeks.
“She dares lie to our face!” Axel growled furiously.
I too could easily detect her lies. She really was shamelessly thirsty for power just like her human.
“So you’re telling me that you were overpowered by your human?” I asked in a low voice.
“Yes Alpha, I swear on the moon goddess.” She answered.
I took in a deep breath and released it. I didn’t want to hurt her with my own two hands despite her pushing my limits.
“I guess I judged you wrongly. If it was in the past I wouldn’t have believed it, but after hearing your words, I have realized my mistake.” I said honestly as she smiled.
“My mistake was to think your human side was the only rotten trash when in truth you are much worse than her. If I had any sense of pity for you, it has all been crushed down by your little act.” I said loudly, then allowed Axel to take over.
She gasped then lowered her gaze to the ground.
“Alpha.” She greeted him in a whisper.
“You don’t have to show your respect, because all I’m here for is to make sure that you drink that.” He answered as she looked at us in fear.
“Alpha how could you….”
“Drink.” Came his command, cutting her sentence short.
She moved the glass cup to her lips with a trembling hand.
“Alpha please.” She pleaded.
There was no way one could go against an alpha’s command, she was rather stupid if she thought Axel would change his mind when he had never liked her from the very beginning.
She opened her mouth and drank the water.
“Good.” He whispered then gave me back control.
I sighed when she dropped the empty glass to the ground with a loud scream shattering it. She fell down and rolled while screaming out in pain.
I sighed softly then turned and walked out, leaving the warrior behind.
“My love.” Amelia called through our mind link putting a smile on my face.
“Yes, baby.” I answered happily as I approached the office.
“How are you feeling?” She asked.
“Mm, let me think.” I answered then kept quiet for a few minutes.
“I’m a little tired from everything that’s going on.” I answered honestly when I reached my office and opened the door.
“Then how about coming into the bedroom and taking a shower with me?” She asked.
It wasn’t long since we had spent our time together, but It felt like it was a decade ago because of being apart. I somehow felt lonely and I missed her a lot. Spending the whole day with her would feel like heaven, sadly I couldn’t slack off, I was waiting for Blade’s call and his confirmation over the new territory.
“I really want to babe but I can’t, at least not now.” I answered, then walked in and closed the door behind me.
“Okay.” Came her response before closing our mind link.
I walked to my seat and sat down with a low groan.
“Damn it.” I muttered to myself then brushed my hand through my hair.
“Ian, you don’t have to act like it’s the end of the world. Spending time with our mate should be one of our top priorities.” Axel said softly.
I sprang from my seat and quickly walked out of the room and went straight to her bedroom without knocking.
When I walked in she quickly moved her hands to cover her breasts.
She had a towel wrapped around her waist and her hair was beautifully let down.
“Ian.” She called in a surprised tone.
“You invited me for a shower, remember?” I asked as I began to unbutton my shirt.
“Yes I do, but I thought you weren’t coming.” She answered.
“I would be a fool to reject my woman’s invitation.” I answered then took off my shirt.
She quickly lowered her gaze to the ground with heated cheeks.
She really was cute, acting all shy when she should have been past that phase.
I completely discarded all my clothes and walked to her.
“Are you feeling shy right now?” I asked teasingly.
“No.” She answered loudly then faced me, her expression instantly softened.
“A little.” She answered in a whisper.
“Then that makes the two of us.” I said.
“What!. Lair.” She said seriously as I laughed and swept her off of her feet.
“I’m being honest here with you.” I answered as I walked into the bathroom and went directly to the shower.
“Fine, let’s say I believe you…” She trailed off then touched my cheek gently.
“Will there be some sort of reward?” She asked innocently as I swallowed hard.
My breath was slightly hitched and the tingles spreading throughout my body felt amazing, her arousal filled the air and I was getting hard just by knowing that her words meant exactly what I was thinking about.
I carefully let her down as the towel fell from her hips.
She was staring at me with longing in her eyes, waiting for me to make a move.
“Calm down.” I said to myself silently.
I wasn’t a beast and I wasn’t going to force her into submitting to me. She wasn’t a virgin but that didn’t mean she was to be treated rashly.
I turned on the shower without averting my eyes from her. As the water poured on us we stood there looking at each other silently. Nothing seemed to phase us, the sound of pouring water and a few low voices of our warriors ordering others around felt like music to my ear. It was all about her at the moment and us.
I moved my hand and pressed it on her neck, gently sliding it to her cheek as she leaned in and closed her eyes for a second.
“Ian.” She called out softly then opened her eyes and stared into mine.
“Yes?” I whispered and closed the little space between us, leaning in and kissing her lips gently. I nibbled her lower lip while my other hand went to her back gently caressing her skin.
A soft sigh escaped me and I found myself thrusting my tongue past her parted lips and savoring her tastes as she kissed me back in a slow, yet alluring motion.
Her body was pressed against mine and each time I slightly sucked on her tongue, she moved her body making it hard for me to hold back.
“Shit.” I muttered between the kiss and roughly pushed her against the wall, savagely devouring her lips. Her arms were wrapped around my shoulders, and her right leg hooked around my thigh while she desperately tried her best to keep up.
I moved my hand between our bodies and brushed my fingers against her folds, she gasped softly and pulled back from the kiss with a labored breath.
“You want to feel me as much as I want to be in you, don’t you?” I asked as I began stroking her clit gently.
She moaned loudly and closed her eyes, tilting her head slightly showing me my mark on her neck.
I grinned then leaned in, pressing my lips on the mark and gently kissing and grazing my teeth there.
“Ahh.” She moaned out breathlessly.
“You like that?” I asked as I gently began drawing circles on her clit, slowly increasing the pressure.
“Ahh, yes.” She moaned out louder, her body slightly trembling.
My eyes were fixed on her sexy movements and her bouncy breasts as she tried to move her own way.
“Then let’s make it even more exciting.” I whispered huskily, then moved my hand and slipped two fingers in her pussy, thrusting deep then slightly pulling out before thrusting back in.
Her moans and low cries filled the room and that aroused me even more. Seeing her try to ride my hand yet failing to do that made it even more exciting.
“More.” She demanded.
“Yes, baby.” I murmured deeply then added another finger.
“Fuck yes.” She screamed out as a shiver spread throughout my body.
Both her arms were above her head resting against the wall while she moved to the rhythm of my thrusting.
“Fucking sexy.” Axel purred as I swallowed hard.
Damn right he was. The sight before us was not only hot but kind of erotic.
I pulled out my hand and turned her in a swift movement, her back towards me. Her hands were pressed against the wall to balance her stance.
“Bend a little babe. Legs apart.” I commanded huskily while I pressed my hand on her back gently caressing her skin. I wanted her relaxed and ready for my cock.
Once she had done as I instructed, I moved my free hand and stroked my cock a few times, before positioning myself at her entrance then thrusting in all the way.
She moaned loudly and moved her hand to my hip, slightly hitting there.
“I’m sorry.” I whispered softly as I stilled my movement to let her adjust to my size. Despite us fucking hard the past few days, she was still tight.
After a minute she dropped her hand and that was all I needed, to know that she wanted me to continue.
I slightly pulled out then slammed back in.
My hands were on her hips as I thrust in and out of her slowly before picking up the pace and letting myself be lost in the moment.
