Chapter 23

Phoenix

As we sit in the living room drinking, my attention is divided between Uncle Luke, my sister's friend, and my sister, but of course, my little wolf is my main focus. The sexual tension between us tonight has been insane, and I think I'm going to make my move before my goddamn cock implodes from how hard it's been since I first laid eyes on her today.

While Unc awkwardly chats with Makayla, Selene gets up and walks upstairs, leaving her half-empty beer bottle on the table. My cock twitches, demanding that I follow her.

All I can hope is that she wants this as much as I do.

But by the slight change in her scent, I can tell she does.

I follow her to her room to find her removing a picture frame from one of the boxes and setting it on the dresser. I step closer, realizing that it's a photo of her with her father. He's holding her in his arms and they're both smiling.

"I could tell that you were his pride and joy," I say behind her.

She releases a sad laugh. "Yeah I was until he was taken away from me. "Not entirely sure how proud he would be now."

I sit beside her. "Don't be ridiculous. What's not to be proud of? You graduated college and now you're helping werewolves every day. I know I'm proud of you."

She turns to me with tears in her eyes. "Thank you," she whispers.

I wipe the tear escaping down her cheek and taste it. I don't why I do it, but by the way my little wolf's eyes darken, I can tell she liked it.

"Shouldn't we go back downstairs? Your uncle and Makayla are down there alone, and it's already awkward enough."

I chuckle lightly. "They can figure whatever that is out all by themselves."

She swallows hard. "Should we be alone together?"

I lean in, brushing my lips against hers. "I'd rather not have an audience for what I'm about do with you."

"Phoenix-" she starts, but her voice is silenced by our lips clashing. "I missed this," I whisper. She opens her mouth to speak, but I kiss her again. "I missed you."

No matter how long I'm away from her, I feel empty until I'm in her presence again. I hate what she does to me, but at the same, I can't seem to fucking stay away from her. Does she not see what she does to me? How, at this point, I'd beg to be inside of her?

My little wolf pushes on my chest to separate us. "Are you just saying that to get into my pants?" she teases, but there's some truth to her question.

I stroke her cheek. "Never. Being away from you has been torture," I reply truthfully, kissing her again.

She wraps her arms around my neck, deepening our kiss. I lift her up, carrying her with me as I lock the door and bring her back over to the bed. I lay her down gently, kissing her as I slowly remove her clothes.

First, her shirt, and I curse underneath my breath when I realize she isn't wearing a bra. Her nipples pebble from her arousal. I pinch one of them as I yank down her black leggings and panties. I've seen her naked before, but not trembling beneath me, aching for my big cock in her pussy.

"You're so fucking beautiful," I mutter, kissing her neck. She shudders, whispering my name. I've never been this gentle with someone during sex, but I want to with her. I want to show her how I feel...physically.

Once I remove my own clothes, I kiss down her perfect body until I reach her freshly-shaven pussy. I groan at how sweet she smells, my mouth watering at the very thought of tasting her again.

It's been too fucking long.

I drag my tongue between her slit and she cries out. I gaze up at her. "Nobody has touched my pussy, right?" I ask, my voice low and dangerous.

We both know we're talking about the pathetic cop that probably couldn't get her to come like I can, even if I wrote him a manual.

Selene shakes her head, her eyes at half-mast.

"Good," I purr, dipping my head back down and lapping at her pussy. She tastes so fucking good; I can't get enough. I'm going to make her come and then I'm going to fuck her silly. Wrapping my arms around her thighs, I eat her sweet little cunt like it's my last meal on death row.

She arches her back, moaning as she grinds against my face. "Oh, Phoenix," she cries out, her voice filled with lust and need.

I groan into her at the sound of my name. Sucking on her clit, her hands tighten in my hair. The rhythm of her hips becomes erratic, her sweet little moans music to my ears as she searches for her release.

That's it, little wolf. My good girl.

Within minutes, she comes with a scream, filling my mouth with her sweet, tangy cream. I swallow every drop, sucking her clit until she's too sensitive for more. Right now.

I'll show her pussy some more attention from my tongue later.

I kiss the top of her mound before making my way back up to her lips. "I'm going to fuck you now. Is that okay?" I murmur.

Selene shakes her head. "No."

Disappointment floods through my veins, but is quickly replaced by lust as she pushes me down on my back and climbs on top of me. "I'm going to fuck you now," she says, the confidence evidence in her tone.

Fuck yeah.

"Is this how you want it?" I ask, smirking. Her boldness fills me both with amusement and excitement. My little wolf wants to be in charge, and just for tonight, I'll let her.

"Fuck," I groan, both of us watching as she sinks down my cock. She plants her hands on my chest and begins circling her hips, riding me at an agonizingly slow pace.

"Faster," I growl, slapping her ass.

She bites her lip. "No. You'll lay there and let me fuck you," she says sternly.

Goddammit. I've never had a woman tell me what to do, but I don't hate this. The twitching of my cock is evidence enough.

She rises and falls down my cock with a pace that picks up in speed. "Good girl. That feels so fucking amazing," I rasp, trying to keep my eyes open so I can watch her.

She grins. "I know."

How the fuck could her ex-mate just throw her away the way he did? She's amazing in every single way.

She pants, bouncing on my cock. "That's it, little wolf. Take your pleasure," I hiss through clenched teeth. A loud moan escapes her lips as she moves even faster.

"Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!" she screams, and she clenches around me, choking the hell out of my dick. I can tell she's close, but I need something else, something to make me feel closer to her.

"Kiss me while you come," I demand, pulling her down to capture her lips. With another roll of her hips, I swallow her scream as her warm cum washes over my dick. I climax seconds after, filling her pussy with my seed.

The moment she comes down from her high, I feel her body tense and she immediately hops off of me. "Oh, goddess. What did I just do?" she mutters under her breath.

I sit up, watching her pace back and forth. "What's wrong?" I ask calmly, a stark contrast from the way she's acting right now.

What the hell is going on? One minute we're having mind-blowing sex, and the next she looks like she's going to have a panic attack. Did I do something wrong?

"Selene," I say louder, snapping her attention to me.

"This was a mistake, let's forget this happened. Y-You have to go," she mutters, tears welling in her eyes. My heart sinks at the tortured look on her face. "Now. Please."

Although her sudden shift in demeanor confuses me, I manage to keep my expression neutral as I gather my clothes and pull them on. I kiss her on the forehead before leaving.

I don't know what just happened, but if she thinks I'm giving up on us after this, she's dead fucking wrong.
