Feris Unleashed

Xander's POV

The shards of glass glittered across the carpet like bloodied stars, wine dripping down my wrist. My palm stung, but I didn’t feel it. The heat in my chest was worse, dangerous, and clawing.

Edrian stood a few feet away, his back to the wall, his shoulders tense as if he was expecting a lash. His eyes...goddess, those blue eyes almost made my fury melt down, beneath it was something else. Fear or maybe longing or both tangled with the same bond ripping me apart from the inside out.

“I told you,” I rasped, my voice came out lower than I intended. “You are nothing to me.”

Even I didn't believe what I just said; it sounded like I was convincing myself he didn't mean anything to me. 

He swallowed, but his wolf betrayed him. I could feel it, his scent thickened, his pupils widened, his body swaying as if he’d been pulled by an invisible chain. The bond thrummed like war drums between us, relentless.

“Then why,” he whispered with that goddamn sexy hoarse tone, “why do you sound like you are convincing yourself?”

Feris, my wolf, slammed against the walls of my mind, feral and hungry. His growl bled into my throat, vibrating out of me. The taste of copper filled my mouth as my claws broke skin where I clenched my fist.

The room felt too small. The firelight painted Edrian’s bare throat in gold, and Feris howled inside me.

Claim him. Make him submit. Show him who he belongs to.

I closed the distance between us before Edrian could move. 

My hand crashed against the wall beside his head, the other fisting into his shirt and dragging him close.  He breathed, and it was flames in my veins.

"You think you can stand there," I snarled, my hot breath blistering his lips, "and pretend this bond isn't burning you?"

“I never wanted this.” His voice broke. He attempted to shove at my chest, but it was weak, like passing over stone. His pulse was going crazy, I could hear it.

Feris surged forward and took final control over my body without transforming into his wolf form. 

I crashed my lips on his, it wasn't gentle, it was pure hunger. His mouth mashed against mine with a groaned sound, and gods have mercy on me, the taste of submission that came from me made my wolf snarl in victory.

He pushed at me once more, and I pinned his wrists, hard against the stone wall above his head, smashed on him. My body pinched into his, hard enough to take his breath and hard enough for him to feel the hardness coming from my lower body.

“Wait...” His word broke off as my teeth managed to scratch the column of his throat. His wolf met mine, and the bond still pulling us together, spilling the rank smell of want into the air. My vision blurred gold. 

“On your knees.” My voice wasn’t mine when I growled, 

Edrian stiffened, shaking his head, eyes wide.

“No”

But his wolf betrayed him. His body trembled, knees buckling, breath ragged as the command pulled him down despite his protest. His eyes shone with shame, fury, and yet he sank, slowly, until he knelt before me.

The sight tore through me. Feris rumbled deep, dark satisfaction rolling in my chest. My hand gripped his jaw, tilting his face up until he had no choice but to meet my gaze. His lips parted, a soundless plea slipping free, and the bond roared, answering it.

“You belong to me,” Feris said through my mouth, voice rough as claws.

Edrian’s wolf keened, his body bowing into submission even as his human self whispered, 

“Please… don’t.” His eyes said otherwise. They burned with a hunger he could no longer hide.

What followed was not gentle. It was not princely. It was hunger sharpened into domination.

Feris pulled down the fabric that held my cock, and I stood there in my full length since I was already hard. 

Edrian quickly looked away as his breath hitched. I saw the dry lump he swallowed in his throat, and I almost pitied him because Feris is a feral wolf, and he gets everything he wants. I could barely control him. 

"Look at me now," Feris commanded, "I want to feel that little smart mouth of yours on my cock."

He looked at me straight in the eye. Looking him straight in the eyes only made my wolf want him more. 

"Now open up and take my cock" Feris said through gritted teeth, clearly losing his patience. 

He opened up, and with one hand, he nervously reached for the base of my big cock, and his touch almost burned my brain out.

"It's too big, it won't fit in my mouth," he said as he looked up to me. Looking at him from below is doing something to me. 

"I will make it fit," I said as I grabbed his hair, and he winced in pain. 

Edrian stuck his tongue out and twirled it around my cap, it sent down pleasure through me before he wrapped his lips tightly around my dick and began sucking. It felt so good. I had fucked men and women before, and no one had ever felt this good. 

I guided his pace as he kept on sucking and slurping... but my wolf isn't satisfied with his pace, so Feris decided to take matters into his own hands. 

Feris held Edrian's head in one place and started thrusting in and out of his mouth so hard. I could see the tears and pain in his eyes. 

He gagged. The cries of Edrian were muffled in the room, and each cry nourished the madness of my wolf, until I exploded into him with a roar that shook the walls.

"Swallow it," I commanded, and he did just that. 

He subsided against me, gasping, hairy with perspiration, eyes clouded with the after spasms.

There were bruises on his lips, and then Feris lunged for more.

His intent was clear: the mark, the bite, the permanent claim. My teeth hovered at the juncture of Edrian’s neck, where his pulse hammered wildly.

Do it, Feris snarled. Make him ours.

For a heartbeat, I nearly obeyed. The taste of him was salt and surrender, and I swear to the moon goddess, I wanted to brand him, to burn my claim into his skin.

But then Edrian’s eyes met mine. Wide, wet, pleading not with desire this time, but with something else. Something too human.

Control snapped back into me like a whip. I jerked myself away as my chest panted and sweat dripped down from my temples. My hands shuddered in fright as I gazed at him, "a what-I-had-done, a what-Feris-handed-me-manifest.

He continued to be on his knees, shaking, and couldn't stand. His lips opened around the tortured heaves.

I couldn't bear to see him. I couldn't stand myself.

The haze blurred my vision, and I mindlinked the only person I could trust. 

Korran. 

"Now. Put him into his quarters." I commanded through the mindlink 

The door swung open a little while later. Korran’s eyes snapped from me to Edrian, and although he never said a word but I saw the hint of disgust in his face.

Edrian didn't bother looking at me as Korran pulled him to his feet, 

Head shouted down, hair covering his face as Korran supported him to the door. 

As the door had closed behind them, the silence came crashing in. I stared at the blood on my palm, at the bit of glass that was stuck in the floor, at the impression of my wolf’s hunger in the air.

I'd told myself I would be able to refuse him. That I could bury the bond beneath duty, beneath the crown, but tonight, Feris had proven otherwise.

I had not claimed Edrian. Not yet. But gods help me… I would never be free of him.
