Akari saw the prince’s head coming toward her and was suddenly froze as a bird with a cobra coming at it. Except this was no cobra—not by a long shot. This was a large, handsome—and she don’t want to admit it but it's true anyways —sexy as fuck Werewolf male, bending his head toward hers, intending to kiss her. And Akari was doing absolutely nothing to stop it from happening.
The prince lowered his face to Akari's and she felt his soft lips brush over hers, once, then again, as if warning her what was about to happen and giving her a chance to change her mind. When she made no effort to move away, the hand on the back of her neck tightened, and the prince crushed his lips down on Akari's. Those moist, lush lips moved over hers and ground into them with barely restrained passion.Akari put her hands up to the prince’s jacket and curled her small long fingers into the lapels. She shoved the prince a little but then held tight to his jacket and stared up into his face. The green eyes stared back down at her curiously, and then the prince lowered his lips toward Akari's once again.Akari tried to tell him to back off, that this was a bad idea, really she did, but the prince took the opportunity to slip his tongue inside Akari's mouth and sweep it gently over the inside before tangling with her tongue. The prince’s hand fell away from the back of her head and his hands dropped down to Akari's plump ass as he pulled her hips up to grind against his.Akari gasped, but before she could fully register what was happening to her, one of the Nikolai's hands went back to her neck, holding her head firmly in place while he lowered his lips to her again. She could feel the roughness of his skin and the strength of his hands and had a moment of panic when she tried to move away and couldn’t. The prince simply continued on ravishing her mouth.God, she’d never felt anything like this, never had anyone take control over her this way. She realized she was getting lightheaded and tried to breathe in through her nose since she couldn’t seem to get away. Did she even want to? She felt drugged with those kisses. Her lips were swollen and bruised and thoroughly plundered and still she wanted more.Kristoff found herself sighing into the prince’s mouth and putting her own hand up to the back of the prince’s neck and hold him in place too. The prince groaned and began slowly walking Akari backward to the sofa again. He picked her up off her feet as Akari gasped in surprise, then she followed them down and stretched out over her.“N-no, please,” Akari cried out, feeling this large, solid man on top of her.“Shh…” Nikolai said softly against her lips. “I only want to kiss you. We won’t do anything else you don’t ask me to do.”Akari had never felt anything like this before. “But—but I think you should get off me first.”Nikolai raised his head and gazed down at her. “I think you'll like this.” He nipped at her lips again and she shivered and clutched him tighter. Nikolai smiled. “Just relax and let me kiss you. We won’t do anything you don’t want to do.”“Oh. Okay. But I don’t know if I really want this. It’s…you’re…”“You kissed me back."“Oh.” Akari looked up at him in confusion. “Well, that doesn’t mean I like it.”The prince smiled down at her and gently bit the tip of Akari's nose. “Really?Because I think it does. There’s no one here to see us. No one to walk in on us. It’s just the two of us. You promised to try this, Colonel, so kiss me. Pretend I’m your lover and show me what you’d do to me if I were.”Akari closed her eyes, took a deep breath and tried to picture her last boyfriend in her mind. She pulled the prince’s head down to kiss her. Her eyes immediately sprang open, because kissing this werewolf was nothing like kissing a human.Other than that, Akari could feel the prince’s huge erection pressing into her and she felt a strange flutter in his stomach.The flutter spread to her chest, and she moved her hips upward to grind back against the prince’s. She moaned and the friction felt so good against her that she practically attacked the werewolf, who was trying to fuck her mouth with his tongue.Instead, Nikolai grabbed her tongue with his lips and sucked it hard into his mouth, taking control away from her again. Akari's eyes opened wide, but she didn’t even try to pull away. She knew Nikolai must be able to hear the soft sounds she's making.And then she suddenly felt the prince’s hand moving down from her back up to her hip until it pressed on her chest. She moaned when the prince started kneading her chest, while his other hand was still in her plump bottom. Lust filled Akari, and without a second thought, she pulled her short shorts down so she could get even closer to the friction on this werewolf dick that was driving her out of her mind. The prince looked down at her in surprise and then helped her pull them down. And then he put a thick finger on her already wet hole pushing it inside her. Akari groaned again and pushed her hips into it.The werewolf answered her with a groan of his own and pressed harder. Then the werewolf pulled down his own pants, his erection springing free. Akari's eyes widen when she saw him push his erection between her legs. Akari was leaking with her juices and when Nikolai pushed his hips, rubbing his hot big dick between her legs rubbing it in her she didn’t try to stop him. Instead she squirmed beneath him, rubbing her self against him. Then she face him up for another kiss, feeling needy and totally unlike herself. What was the prince doing to her?Nikolai wrapped himself around Akari, his big arms and legs completely covering her.His mouth feasted on Akari's while Akari trembled beneath him. Akari's legs open wider and she thrust her hips up at Nikolai again. “More,” she groaned, needing the friction against this werewolf cock. “More, please.”“No, little one, not like this.” Nikolai moved up to cover her lips again, tracing themwith his tongue. Akari moaned and practically attacked him, trying to hump against him, spreading her thighs wider in invitation. Instead, Nikolai moved back away from her, making her strain toward him for more. “No. We’ll wait for our wedding night. If we don’t stop this now, I won’t be able to resist you much longer.”The prince’s words hit her hard, and she felt herself flush all over with embarrassment. She turned her head sharply away, but the prince moved a hand down to her chin and made her look at him. “No, don’t be embarrassed in front of me. You’re beautiful like this, but I only meant to kiss you. If I continue, we’ll never make it to the ceremony, and I won’t disrespect you that way. You will be my wife, my consort and my mate. That role is too special not to honor it.” He shook Akari's chin gently. “Look at me, sweetheart.”Akari dragged her gaze up to his and saw him smiling down at her. “I love your passion, wife. And I think we’ve answered the question of whether or not we’ll be able to make ourselves go through with this, yes?”Akari felt a blush starting again and closed her eyes tightly, overcome with embarrassment. She nodded her head stiffly. And the prince dropped one more kiss on her lips.“Good. Then I’ll go and give them our answer. And I’ll see you at our ceremony.”Akari lay in stunned silence as the prince levered himself up with a groan. She gazed up at him then opened her eyes and sat up only to see the prince’s massive erection on a level with her face. God, what had she done? Had she really agreed to marry this man? This Werewolf Prince? It would certainly seem she had. Had she really just acted like a slut with the fucking enemy of her people? Fuck! She closed her eyes and tried to forget the feel of the man’s lips on her lips—not to mention the feel of his massive cock rubbing against her wet folds!“No, no, I-I can’t. I don’t know what came over me, but I-I need more time to think!”The prince turned at the door and stared back at her. “More time is the last thing you need. You’re confused, but your body told me everything I needed to know. You’re my wife now, so I’ll make the decisions for both of us, unless you’re really not sure. Unless you can tell me right here and now that you don’t want the marriage, and you don’t want me. Tell me that and I’ll leave you alone and go tell them the marriage is off.” He quirked a perfectly shaped red eyebrow up at him and waited for a few seconds. When Akari stayed silent, chewing her bottom lip, he nodded. “Get ready. The wedding will take place this afternoon. We’ll pack up and be on our way back to my home in the morning. Last chance, Colonel…”Akari opened her swollen mouth to say something, but the words seemed to stick in her throat.She made a soft sputtering sound, but couldn't get her tongue to form a single word. She shook her head instead, feeling her cheeks heat up. Nikolai nodded.“Right. I’ll see you at our ceremony. Be ready.”........It took a little over an hour to make it back to their ship, and Akari spent all of that time sitting as close to Nikolai as she could.After an hour of torturing Winters and Guzman they finally told them where they had kept the survivors. Thankfully other than the young soldier who was murdered in cold blood everyone else were spared. Looking at the man she's so worried about, she started touching him all over and couldn’t seem to stop, just to reassure herself he was really there. This whole thing had been a nightmare from start to finish, and she needed to get Nikolai and the others back home as soon as she could.As soon as they got back to the ship, all of the men they had rescued, including Nikolai, were thoroughly checked out by the physician that Akari had insisted be brought along with them, not knowing what they’d find on their search. “I don’t know what you’re doing here like this, but I thank the gods for it,” Nikolai said, nuzzling Akari's neck. “When we got closer to t
Submarines were faster than warships and operated with ruthless efficiency against any of them they might have encountered. Cigar-shaped vessels, long and sleek and unbelievably fast, dotted with an array of weapon batteries and shields, they were massive crafts, and the king’s personal submarine was both luxurious and deadly. The kitchens, however, still served werewolf food, which, in Keanna's opinion, left a great deal to be desired. After Akari realized something from the grainy pictures that was sent to them she immediately went to the King to asked them if she could go and find out if Nikolai was still alive. Because she knew it in her heart that her mate couldn't be dead just like that. She has to do something or she'll become crazy from grief. Beatrice who also wanted to believe her gave her permission and the king is helpless when it came to his beloved's plea so he agreed and even gave them permission use anything for their disposal. Beatrice even asked Keanna to help Aka
King Davos paced up and down the length of his council chamber, his mind in turmoil. He had torn at his robe in agony when he first got the news and it was hanging off his shoulder on one side. He couldn’t be bothered to care about his disheveled appearance. It was the last thing on his mind. He’d just received news that he still couldn’t fathom, and he couldn’t think clearly about how to break it to Beatrice. Or, great gods, to Akari. Running his hand through his hair again, he wished he could pull it all out instead—he needed to inflict some kind of pain on himself to distract from the awful pain in his mind and his heart. It couldn’t be true, and yet he’d seen the images, brought to him personally by his old ally, a Sechuan general named Cadimun Pax. He had arrived only an hour before and told the guards that he had urgent business with the king. Davos, who had been in council, had allowed him to enter and the general had laid out the images on the table in front of the king, his
Beatrice stood in the middle of the small arena, waiting. She didn’t have to wait long. Her opponent came out slowly, stalking toward her to the middle of the ring, posturing to the small crowd of observers watching from the stands. Beatrice watched silently as the tall, muscular young man posed and flexed his muscles. He was dressed all in black, with a close-fitting metal helmet covering the top of his head and the upper part of his face. When he turned and faced Beatrice, he bared his teeth in a sneer and stepped forward. He swung the chain at Beatrice's feet and Beatrice jumped over it easily, landing on her feet as she’d been taught, and swung her huge club at her opponent’s head, almost in one motion. The younger man got his shield up just in time, but the impact caused him to stagger backward. Yelling in rage, the young man surged forward and swung his own club, but Beatrice sidestepped the blow, ducking low and coming in at the opponent’s side to jab at him with his short s
When Akari got back to the palace she went immediately to her and Nikolai's private quarters. She flung open the door to see Nikol sitting quietly in his cordoned-off play area, banging a rattle on the floor and gurgling some baby nonsense. He looked up at Akari when she came in and gave her a toothless grin. Unable to bear the cuteness, Akari scooped him up and kissed him. “You’re such a good baby, yes you are.” She held him up over her head as Nikol grinned down at her, a long string of drool sliding from his lips. “Where’s your father, sweetheart? Surely he didn’t leave you all alone? If he did, Mommy will kill him. Yes, she will.” “What kind of thing is that to say to our baby?” Akari turned and grinned at her mate. “The truth. But he doesn’t understand what I’m saying anyway. He’s not quite seven months old, you know.” “He’s a very intelligent child.” “Yeah, yeah….” Akari crossed over to him, and Nikolai automatically opened his arms for her. Stepping into his embrace, Akari
Akari realized she was trembling a little and stuck her hands under the table to hide it. She'd had a long time to think about what her sister had done, but to hear this…that her crimes had even extended to ordering the death of an innocent child. It had shocked her like nothing had for a long time. She sat very still, not knowing what she could possibly say in the face of this awful revelation. Across from her, Keanna was speaking again, her eyelids thankfully falling down over the haunted blue-green eyes, hiding some of the pain. Akari pressed a hand to her mouth for a moment and then shifted her gaze back down at the scarred table. “How?” she asked quietly. “I suppose she left orders. Or maybe she had contacts still left in the palace. I don’t know.” Keanna's shoulders slumped. “She could have been lying. She’s good at that. Always was.” Keanna looked up hopefully, but then sighed. “No, I don’t want to get my hopes up about that. Not when I can’t do anything to help him in an
