Se connecterDARIUS’S POV
For someone who looked like she was about to start a fight just a few minutes ago, she sure knew how to melt into my kiss.
My tongue surged into her mouth, battling with hers. There was nothing gentle about it—just me asserting my dominance. I needed to remind her exactly where she belonged for the past year.
We were in the hallway, and I knew anyone could pass by, but I couldn’t bring myself to care. Not when heat blazed through me, a primal pull forcing me to her as she rubbed her body against mine, her chest pressing into my suit jacket.
“Darius… not here…” she pulled away, her breathing harsh as she gripped my jacket in her hands.
I groaned against her lips, glancing around before my eyes fixed onto the nearest door. It was a simple door that looked like exactly where I needed to drag her right now.
“What’s in there?” I demanded.
Her gaze slid to the door. “It’s a storage room. It’s been empty for a while, but the servants clean it every day and—”
I didn’t wait to hear the rest. I dragged her into it, barely letting her back hit the wall before my lips found hers again, sucking her lower lip into my mouth as I deepened the kiss.
She moaned against me as I ground my hips against hers. I pushed my knees between her legs, rubbing my hardening length against her thighs. “Feel that, Iris? That’s what you fucking do. That’s what you’ve always done to me.” The words tangled into moans that went straight to my core, making my erection pulse even harder.
Fuckkk, I need this. I need her.
My hand closed around her neck, firmly but gently cutting off her air supply as I pulled her gown up with my other hand, my fingers pulling her panties aside as I felt her.
She was soaking wet, already ready for me.
Wet, slick sounds filled the tiny room as I pressed one finger into her. Then another. Then three. I pumped them into her slowly, taking pleasure in the shaky moans and gasps that escaped her.
Her core clenched hard around my fingers as I curled them inside her, hitting that perfect spot that made her vision swim. Her body twitched and shuddered against mine, her breasts pressing into my chest as she kissed me back deeply. “D-Darius… Alpha Wolfe… Please…”
I growled against her lips, loving the way she called me Alpha Wolfe. It was formal and respectful, yet it held the hint of submission that always drove me wild.
I added another finger, stretching her out as I worked her with my hand. “Shh…” I whispered against her mouth, “Just take my fingers like a good girl. You’ll take my cock just as well, huh?” My thumb pressed against her clit, rubbing circles as I fisted her roughly.
The sound of the wet movements amplified in the small room, her fluids coating my wrist.
Her eyes rolled back as she came hard on my fingers, her pussy gripping and milking them.
Before she could even catch her breath, I pulled my fingers out and lifted her up suddenly. “Oh fuck, you’re dripping,” I groaned, looking at her swollen, red pussy coated in her juices. Mine. Pulling down my pants, I quickly exposed my erection, rubbing the head of my cock against her entrance teasingly, soaking myself in her wetness.
This is wrong. But when did I ever care about right or wrong when it came to her?
“Put your legs around my waist,” I ordered gruffly, holding her up easily. As soon as she wrapped her legs around me, I thrust deep into her soaked pussy in one smooth motion. “Fuck, yes…so warm….”
She moaned loudly, her head falling back against the wall as I started to pound into her relentlessly. My cock hit every spot inside her, filling her completely. “Darius…” She whimpered, gripping my shoulders tightly.
“Shh, you can take it,” I growled, grabbing her thighs and spreading them wider to go deeper. The small room reverberated with the sounds of our coupling—wet slaps and her desperate moans.
I leaned down to bite her neck hard, a swift mark of possession, my hips hammering against hers.
As I continued to fuck her brutally, my cock swelled at the base, my knot forming rapidly inside her. She gasped sharply as it locked us together, stretching her more than before. “There it is,” I growled possessively against her ear.
“Fuck, fuck, fuck, no..yes…” She panted as the knot expanded fully inside her.
I started shallow thrusts, using the knot to stretch her open and deep instead of pounding. Each slow movement made her whimper and squirm. The new rhythm rubbed the knot against her sensitive spot perfectly. “Darius…”
“Yes pretty thing… feel that? Me filling you up in your pack when I’m supposed to marry another?” I whispered, pulling her into a deep kiss as I slowly pumped the knot into her sopping cunt.
My hands squeezed her ass possessively, holding her trapped on my length. The knot pulsed inside her slowly, mimicking a powerful heartbeat against her walls.
She nodded helplessly against my mouth, her body trembling. I kissed her roughly, my hand sliding up to grip her throat lightly. “Take it…” I commanded between kisses.
“Fuck…yes,” She whimpered and nodded, trying to breathe through the intense pleasure. I broke the kiss to look into her eyes, my thumb pressing against her windpipe lightly.
“Look at me,” I demanded softly but firmly. Her eyes fluttered open, glazed over with pleasure and submission.
I started to thrust the knot deeper and slower, hitting a spot inside her that made her eyes roll back. “Good girl… Just feel it,” I praised, my gaze dark as I pulled my cock out slightly and slammed back in.
“Fuck!” Her body shook violently as the knot hit that spot repeatedly. She was completely lost, her hands gripping my arms desperately.
Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes from the pleasure and the light choking. I leaned down to kiss those tears away gently while continuing the slow, deep thrusts.
Without breaking the gentle kiss, I suddenly snapped my hips forward, slamming the knot against her most sensitive spot with brutal force. She cried out into my mouth, her body convulsing as I began to fuck her hard and fast, the knot providing a constant, intense stimulation.
I fucked her so hard the sounds of skin meeting resounded. My balls slapped against her ass with every thrust and the knot swelled even bigger inside her, pulsing wildly against her sensitive walls.
She screamed and moaned loudly, her fluids squirting all over the knot and my cock. “Fuck—I’m—”
“That’s it… come all over my dick,” I growled against her lips between brutal thrusts. Her body convulsed violently as she peaked again and again—her orgasms triggered by each punishing slam.
Suddenly, loud voices sounded outside the storage room door. Her eyes widened, clearing with instant panic.
She was going to try to speak. Without waiting, my hand slammed onto her mouth, muffling her words as I pounded into her with slow, sharp thrusts to reduce the noise of skin hitting skin.
“Mhmh,” she struggled with me, but I held her tight, knowing people were outside.
“Have you seen Alpha Darius yet?” A muffled voice outside asked another.
Shit. They were looking for me.
I silenced her completely with my hand, pushing my fingers between her lips.
I felt her core clamp down on my knot as she tried to push it out, her body tensing. “Darius…” She groaned against my hand.
“Too bad,” I whispered darkly, ramming deep into her.
Stars seemed to explode behind her eyes as I snapped my hips forward brutally, the knot swelling to its maximum size and locking us together. She went limp in my arms, completely overwhelmed.
I held her still for a second before letting her slide to her feet, aware that her knees were weak. “You okay?” I asked, a routine question.
Her breathing was harsh. “What do you think?”
I grinned, tucking myself back in. “You’re leaking my cum, Iris. We’re going to have a hell of a time.”
I kissed her temple gently. Her eyes were barely open, still recovering from the intense pleasure, as I slipped back out into the hallway.
What kind of fun did I think we were going to have?
And most importantly, why did I find myself looking forward to any type of fun when I was going to get married to her sister?
Fuck, what exactly was I setting myself up for?
I was lost in my thoughts, still trying to adjust the zip of my pants as I walked quickly down the hall. My eyes lifted and my legs froze, stopping dead in their tracks as I met eye to eye with the last person I needed to see right now.
DARIUS’S POV"Hold it steady, Iris!"I lunged across the wet marble, my boots throwing up a spray of water and glass shards as I slammed my body against the black industrial crate. The smell of hot copper and ozone was suffocating. Through the smoke, I could see Iris’s face, tight with agony, her silver talons digging into the raw blue wire as three hundred volts of grounding current tore through her fingers. Her grey eyes were bright with a blinding, golden alpha light, her jaw clenched so hard a drop of blood trickled down her chin.Seven seconds.The digital timer on the demolition box was frozen, its green light pulsing erratically as the system struggled to read the spoofed bio-signature.My hands flew to the side panel of the machine, my fingers ripping away the protective plastic casing to expose the central data receiver. My father hadn't just wired this box to blow; he had linked the detonator’s internal hard drive to the tower’s primary administrative network. If the bomb we
IRIS’S POVThe vertical shaft was a dark, hollow throat that smelled of burning copper and grease.Darius went down the iron rungs first, his broad shoulders easily clearing the narrow steel frame as he guided my feet from below. My bare skin scraped against the cold metal, the tatters of my emerald silk dress catching on the rough bolts as we dropped through the floors with a frantic, rhythmic speed. Above us, the forty-fifth floor was already a roaring furnace, the orange light of the fire leaking through the cracks of the maintenance door and casting long, dancing shadows over our heads."Five floors down, Iris!" Darius’s voice came up through the darkness, a low, gravelly hum that stayed perfectly steady despite the smoke thickening around us. "Hold the line!"Every time the building groaned, the vibration traveled straight through the metal rungs into my palms. My silver wolf was completely focused now, her heightened senses tracking the distant, mechanical countdown echoing up f
DARIUS’S POVThe digital console let out a long, low chime that vibrated through the metal desk.The black progress bar on the main monitor broke into a thousand pieces, the red deletion script completely dissolving as the gold light of the Calder crest locked the files into place. The secondary backup vault let out a loud mechanical groan, the heavy magnetic seals releasing with a series of sharp pops that echoed through the smoke-filled server room. The steel door swung open an inch, revealing the cold, brightly lit interior of the data core where the physical drive sat perfectly safe."It’s secured," Iris panted, her shoulders sagging as she leaned against the shattered glass of the junction box.Her human face was pale, covered in fine gray soot, and the long claw marks on her bare shoulder were still pink and tender from the healing process. The emerald silk of her dress was mostly gone, hanging in wet shredded ribbons that barely covered her golden skin, but her grey eyes were b
IRIS’S POV"On three," Darius whispered, his fingers curling around the iron latch of the maintenance hatch.The heat radiating off the metal panel was intense, warming the skin of my bare arms as I crowded behind his massive shoulder. The narrow shaft was thick with the chemical stench of the welding torch and the unmistakable, oily smell of burning plastic. My silver wolf was scratching violently at the surface of my mind, her instincts demanding a direct path to the throat of whatever enemy was trying to melt our future."One," Darius counted, his muscles swelling beneath his wet leather coat."Two."I tightened my grip on the iron rung of the ladder, my silver talons extending slightly from my fingertips, ready for the impact."Three."Darius didn't just push the hatch. He hit it with the full weight of his alpha strength, his shoulder driving the steel door outward with a violent, earsplitting crash. The metal panel flew off its hinges, slamming directly into the back of the near
IRIS’S POV"The ledger isn't closed, Darius."My voice was a raw, breathless whisper against his chest as the computer screen behind us flashed with a sudden, violent error code. I was still clinging to his waist, my bare feet dangling off the edge of the splintered mahogany desk, but the sudden heat of our proximity instantly chilled. The green silk of my dress was in tatters, hanging off my shoulders in damp ribbons, but my attention was completely fixed on the red data lines expanding across the monitor.Darius didn't let go of me. His large, warm hands remained locked around my hips, his fingers digging into my skin with a desperate, possessive grip that told me his wolf was still fighting for control. His blue eyes, dark with the amber tint of our fated bond, narrowed as he looked over my shoulder at the screen."What did he do?" Darius growled, his jaw tightening so hard the muscle twitched beneath his dark stubble."The signature he just put on the abdication paper," I said, my
"Drop your weapons and step back from the door."My command wasn't loud, but it carried a sharp, cold finality that left no room for negotiation. The thirty council enforcers standing behind my father looked down at their locked automatic rifles, then at each other, before the front line slowly let the heavy straps slide off their shoulders. The metal weapons hit the damp carpet with a series of dull, heavy thuds. They were seasoned soldiers, but they were also pragmatists. They knew that without the Calder payroll accounts backing their families in the northern territories, they were just men standing in a broken room with no health insurance and no legal shield.My father stood completely frozen in the center of the hallway, his face a bloodless, pasty mask under the harsh fluorescent lights of the freight elevator bay. His hands were clenched into tight, trembling fists at his sides, his chest heaving as he looked at the row of his own men abandoning him one by one."You think you
