All Chapters of Bound To The Cursed Lycan : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

THEODOSA. I swallowed. He was looking at me and saying nothing. I turned the words over. “Do you mean,” I started, “for us to honor my part of the deal… right now?” Xahen tilted his head and watched me. I frowned at him doing it. “If I asked you to strip bare for me here,” he said, “would you do it?” My pulse shot up so fast my ears rang with it. My eyes moved sideways before I could stop them, cutting to where Base and Draven stood with their backs to us, barely out of sight. One turn of either heads and they’d have a clear view of everything happening here. Nala and Afnie were watching from further along the shore. I brought my gaze back to Xahen and said nothing. He studied me. Then the corner of his mouth moved and he began turning away. “We’ll arrange rules and a proper—” “I’d like to honor our deal now.” He stopped. The silence lasted two full seconds. Then he turned back, very slowly. “Do you think I will not take you up on your offer?” His voice was even. “Is th

THEODOSA. I'd been in that bathroom for too long and I knew it. The shower had run cold before I finally turned it off, and I'd stood there for another few minutes after that, my back against the tiled wall, going over the events of the morning in my head the way I always went over things I couldn't undo. I had propositioned Xahen on a public shore. I pressed both palms flat against the cold tile and breathed out through my nose. I had to use his bath products. And now his scent was sitting in my hair and on my skin in a way that made the mate bond do something unhelpful low in my stomach. I smelled like him. I was standing in his bathroom, naked and smelling like him, talking myself into biting the bullet. I didn't want to want this. I didn't want to want to sleep with Xahen. I shouldn't want to want to sleep with Xahen. He had put me in a cellar. He’d released his wolf on me. He had made me kneel on a stone floor and turned me down just to watch my face while he did i

THEODOSA. The anger in his voice moved through me before I could intercept it, and I was immediately annoyed at myself for how my body received it, the heat that traveled straight down my spine in response to his irritation specifically. He was being demanding and difficult and I was responding to it exactly the way I shouldn’t be. I was filing that away for later. My other hand joined the first. There was no belt. I worked his button open and pulled the zipper down and he wasn’t wearing anything underneath, and his cock pushed free between us, heavy and hot where it settled against my lower belly, thick from base to tip with the head shiny in the low light. His piercings pressed cold into my skin, that ladder of gold bars I’d been not-thinking-about for weeks. The breath that left me was not controlled. I wrapped my hand around him properly, his piercings shifting cold against my palm, and the weight and specific hardware of him made something settle low and warm in me that

XAHEN.She was still coming down from it.Her scent was buried in my nose, thick and sweet and completely inescapable. Her arousal was sitting on my cock like a reminder I didn't need. My shoulder burned where her nails had been. I didn't look at the marks.My canines were throbbing with the urge to sink into her skin, and that was exactly the problem.This needed to stop.I pulled off her immediately and stood up on unsteady legs. Her blue eyes widened and I looked away a second too late. She was spread across my bed with her hair everywhere, her chest heaving and her thighs still parted, looking like an invitation I couldn't afford to accept. Her breasts were heavy flushed swells connected to a slender waist, forming a milky and freckled path downward to those reddish curls covering her pale pink pussy.It was the most inviting site in the world. I turned my back to her and shoved myself back into my slacks, tucking away what was currently making clear thinking impossible. The p

THEODOSA. I stared at her, lost for a moment . “I didn’t think I was eligible for a heat,” I whispered. Afnie sat quietly beside me, taking it in like it wasn’t the craziest thing she’d ever heard, and somehow that made it worse. “Is it truly, truly possible?” I panicked, glancing between the both of the’m. “I thought a mated couple had to be fully marked before the female could go into heat.” “That’s usually the case,” Nala said. She put her hand under her chin. “When a male marks his female it disrupts her biology,” she said. “Her hormones, her instincts, basically everything shifts. It intensifies the need to mate with him until the bond is fully completed. Nature’s doing.” She paused. “But another thing is this… the timeline depends on the strength of the bond. For example, an alpha male could send his mate into heat way quicker than a beta blooded male, or any lower rank.” Afnie and I stared at each other, then at Nala. “But Xahen never marked Theo,” Afnie said. “That’s
