In no time, Verya caught something, a rabbit and a small squirrel, and as Sathe caught fire to the woods he gathered, she skinned and washed the meat in a nearby pond which she had found with her good sense of hearing. The useless sticks that fell from the tree branches up above were put to use and soon the meat was being roasted at a high heat.
Both Sathe and Verya sat, watching it for there was really nothing else to do. The silence between them was so deafening that it became uncomfortable, especially to Sathe. His eyes drifted over to his mate; slowly, shyly, his little hands clenching as he spoke, “You didn’t tell me your name…can I…can I know your name?”
Verya looked over at him, slowly nodding her head. “Come closer, I’ll whisper it to you.”
Sathe nodded, shuffling closer to her on the soft bed of grass where they sat. “Now…?”
Verya shook her head. “Closer Sathe.”
Sathe’s cheeks reddened as he looked between them, finding absolutely no space, if he moved any closer, his skin would touch hers…even so, he shuffled the slightest bit closer, looking up at her expectantly. “You’ll tell me now?”
Verya closed the little space that was between them, sighing out in what sounded so close to bliss when her arm pressed against his. The tingles were so conspicuous, it was so hard to just not feel them. His skin felt good against hers, warm and soft, if only she could pull him a little closer…
But what exactly was stopping her? Sathe wasn’t.
Turning towards him completely, she grabbed his face with a hand, leaning down to plant her lips against his. His face was so red, and his lips were too perfect to resist, his scent too.
The last time she had kissed him, his lips had remained stiff against hers and if it turned out to be the same now, she wouldn’t ignore it.
Her lips moved slowly against his, savouring the taste of his lips, He tasted the same way he smelled; sweet and minty, but it wasn’t enjoyable if he wasn’t eager to taste her lips too…he wasn’t kissing her back.
Sighing, she pulled away from him. “What’s the problem?”
Sathe’s cheeks flushed even redder, his hand reaching for her blouse, pulling weakly at it. “Teach me…” he whispered before hiding his face away from her.
Verya looked down at him, her head tilted questionably. “Sathe…don’t tell me you don’t know how to…” she sighed again. “Look at me Sathe…”
Sathe was reluctant, but not for long, he lifted his head, looking up at her with nothing but diffidence in his dark, obsidian eyes.
“Are you telling me you don’t know how to do it?”
Sathe nodded his head. “Y-Yes.”
Verya moved closer to him again. “Are you saying I’m your first kiss…?”
Sathe nodded again, his hands trembling when his mate’s eyes flashed from hazel to red and then to hazel again. She chuckled; the sound dark, not humorous at all. “You’re tempting me to devour you, aren’t you? Was I the first to touch you here too?”
Her hand ran along his covered length that was already as hard as a rock, and Sathe moaned. “Y…Yes!”
“Open your mouth, Sathe…”
Sathe acquiesced, his lips slipping apart the slightest bit and his mate didn’t hesitate to swoop down like an eagle, licking along his lips before shoving her tongue inside.
Her tongue searched for something it seemed she couldn’t find, and pleasure toured through him with no mercy. His hand gripped her shirt tighter, pulling her even closer.
He wanted more, he wanted her to touch him again, and the thought of touching her too had even more excitement rushing straight down to his c*ck.
He moaned desperately when she pulled away, his eyes looking up at her with a need she was confident she could fulfil. She reached for his pants, pulling at the button, then the zip, and then at the waistband of his underwear until his thick and veiny member was set free.
She wrapped her hand around it, her eyes staring into his with an intensity that could undoubtedly drive him mad. His hand reached beneath her blouse almost instinctively, running along the warm skin of her abdomen.
Verya grabbed it, pushing it even higher and she didn’t stop until it was situated over her left breast. “Here…you should touch me here.”
Sathe swallowed hard when she climbed on top of him, he didn’t know what to do, but the fact that she was taking the lead and guiding him had his c*ck pulsating with an even bigger need.
His little hand squeezed the soft flesh beneath it when his mate finally started to stroke him…but as soon as she started, she had to stop…for from behind them came the sound of the meat they were roasting crumbling right into the fire.
His mate turned towards it, groaning angrily as her hand let him loose and she rose to her feet, turning her back to him as she walked over to the fire.
She stopped mid-way. “Verya…my name is Verya.”
Verya…? What a fitting name Sathe thought as he put away his hard member…trying his hardest to bury a desire that wasn’t at all fulfilled…
But could he?
SO I'M...I'LL JUST...YOU KNOW WHAT? I'LL JUST SHUT UP
Sathe’s heartbeat froze when the fluttering of wings drifted across his ears. They were closer, just above them. He took a chance, looking back at the creature that stalked the sky and he wasn’t wrong, it was a fae… ‘Help…’ he called out to his self-consciousness. ‘Help me…please…’ The beast within him responded almost immediately, it was as if he had been waiting to be called. ‘Pathetic…’ Sathe closed his eyes as his control slowly slipped from his grasp. He could feel as his eyes changed colour, and feel as fur covered his arms. His claws came forth next, unintentionally sinking into Verya’s thighs. “Owe…Sathe…what’s tha…?” She looked down at his arm, eyes widening when she saw what was happening. “N-No…Sathe you can~” “Verya!” Both Sathe and Verya turned to stare at the creature who called out. It landed behind them, and Sathe growled as he turned around to look at it. It was a fae, yes, but it was a child. She stepped back, holding her hands up in defence. “Jake sent me…he tol
Sathe woke up wrapped in Verya’s silver fur as well as the redolence of her scent. It was comforting, after spending two days away from her, waking up in her scent was a privilege to him.But regardless of that, he had to leave again…He sat up, turning to stare at her. It was dark out, and the cold breeze swept across his bare skin like hands: harsh and cold, but despite being in her wolf form, Verya seemed to be suffering from it more than him.She was shaking, and even in her sleep, her teeth were chattering. He didn’t think she was fine, she didn’t at all look fine.His hand reluctantly reached for her, but he stopped before he could touch her. He had been thinking of using this opportunity to get away without her knowing, but if he woke her up, he’d lose it, wouldn’t he? She’d stop him, he knew, only a couple of words from her could persuade him.But how could he leave when she was like this?Sighing, he shook her awake. “Verya, are you okay?”Verya’s hazel eyes fluttered open, s
“Are yo~” He stumbled back holding onto his chest. “My session is over…this is the longest I can keep my control over this body. It’s too weak…I have to go…”The black in his eyes cleared to white and Verya caught Sathe’s body before he could fall. He was out cold, a log against her shoulder…Sighing, she struggled to get him on her back, not because he was heavy, but because it was hard to relocate a limp body. She managed, but that didn’t stop her from frowning as she carried on deeper into the woods. His body was putting pressure on her injured shoulder, she wouldn’t be able to get far like this, but she had to try. Jake would be suspicious if he found her with a naked Sathe covered in fae blood. She had to find them water where they both could wash what was supposed to be a secret off of them.However, even with the determination, she didn’t get far enough, she had to stop when the pain got too much…and still, she had to change forms in order to keep Sathe warm when the evening
He raised his head to look at her, eyes still completely black; without the whites. “If that’s what you’re worried about, I won’t…I’ve never had a mate before, this life is way more privileged than the others. But…”Verya knitted her eyebrows curious as to what the vile creature had to say next. “B-But?” “You’re disappointed in me, aren’t you? I could see it in your eyes…you were angry. But why? I did it for you…you shouldn’t be angry…you should be happy.” “Happy that you’re killing innocent people?” “No…happy that I’m doing it to protect you.” He hung his head low. “Ruffle my hair…tell me I did good.” Verya glared at the top of his head, the anxiousness had now melted into nothing, and her fear was now dead. “Are you kidding me right now?” “I’m not…I really did all of this for you…I deserve to be praised. I feel weird, I don’t like the disappointment that I saw in your eyes, I don’t like the anger or the hate. I’ve never had a mate before, so I want to be reassured, I want to co
Her glossy eyes drifted up, meeting the horrendous sight of a creature she didn’t wish to see. Its eyes were black, all the natural whites eradicated and taken over. Its red fur was soaked in blood giving it a stench that made it seem a lot more dangerous than it probably was… It had no humanity in those eyes…it seemed lost, only remembering how to kill and it was doing just that. Every arrow that came at it was proven to be of no good, even when they pierced the creature it didn’t cry out in pain…instead it effortlessly pushed them back out. Did it perhaps get stronger? Was its healing ability almost immediate now? Verya shook her head, it wasn’t the time to assess its strength, she had to stop Jake. Her eyes shifted back down, spotting Jake who had already transformed into his wolf form. He looked tiny when compared to the beast, but in truth, his wolf was just as big as hers. The beast truly was a giant, perhaps that’s why so many different supernatural beings had to join forces
Verya had never been one to look forward to a long walk, and this time it was no different. The fae had said it was close, but this was by far the furthest she’d ever walked on two legs with a destination in mind. She wanted to forfeit, to give it all up, but she had to remind herself that it was all for a good cause. ‘For Sathe…’ She thought, groaning as she took a look at the long way ahead. Why was Sathe doing this to her? No, the real question was ‘why was she doing this to herself?’ Sathe didn’t ask her to hunt him down, she had chosen this path singlehandedly, but it was so f*cking hard to see it through. God dammit! “Are we even close yet?” She was ashamed of herself, the fact that her mate ran away from her had her pride dirt low, and not truly knowing the real reason why made it worst. All she could do was come up with assumptions... He left because he was scared... He left because of her father... He left because he felt self-conscious Or the worst assumption of the
