A Wolf's Oath (46 page)

She smiled, the sultry movement of her lips perplexing
Sebastian before her hands rose to his neck and her body arched
against his. Heat instantly filled her and she could feel her body
reacting to his without any effort on his part.
Ah yes, that’s better,
she mused.
“Who said that I was against this? If memory serves me right, I’ve
been in favour of this for a while now. Is this why you didn’t want
us to make love Sebastian?”

“
Enough talking,” he groaned pulling her close and slanting his
lips against hers.
Forgive me Erica. I
can’t take this any more. Forgive me this one thing
beloved.

Chapter
Forty-Three

Pleasure speared through her as his lips moved against hers,
the contact inspiring all the sensations that had been absent when
she had unknowingly kissed his brother. The feeling mounted as his
tongue slipped past her parted lips and swept through her mouth,
demanding a response. And she gave it, there was no alternative.
The arms around his neck tightened, pulling him closer to her and
she could feel his lips lift upwards in a smile. His hands were
everywhere, touching her, caressing her while his hips continued to
move relentlessly against her own. If his plan was to make her
hyper aware of him, he was succeeding. There wasn’t an inch of her
that wasn’t acutely conscious of him and she loved the feeling. She
could feel her nipples tightening almost painfully as his hands
cupped the curve of her bottom and lifted her. Her legs
instinctively wrapped themselves around his waist and he groaned
against her lips. The cotton material of her shorts was so flimsy
that he could feel her heat through them and was now aware of the
growing wetness between her thighs. The hard bark of the tree was
uncomfortable so she pressed closer to him, the heat of their
bodies rising as her nipples rasped deliciously against his chest
while he was drawn ever closer to the prize he had long been
seeking.

He pulled his lips away from hers and looked her directly in
the eyes. “Erica, I have to have you.”

“
The feeling is definitely mutual.” She smirked and then his
lips were on hers once more and she could do nothing more than give
in to the demands her body was making. She rocked her hips against
his savouring the feel of his hardened member pressed intimately
against her. So absorbed was she in the feel of Sebastian all
around her, she failed to notice that he was moving. Each stride
jarred him against her and the material of his trousers pushed hard
against the small bundle of nerves assured to bring her pleasure.
By the time he stopped moving she was moaning loudly, writhing
within his arms as she sought release.

He hadn’t thought it possible, but he willingly separated
himself from her body, even if it was only long enough to lay her
against the damp ground. Her shirt was pushed up and her breasts
were exposed to the cold winds that floated around them. He watched
as her peaked nipples tightened further and his eyelids lowered to
half-mast as he took in the beauty of his mate’s body. Her creamy
skin looked so smooth under the moonlight that he couldn’t resist
touching her, laying his hand against the skin of her stomach, he
rumbled his approval. “So soft Erica, so soft.” His large hand
continued to gently caress her skin with light touches and she
sighed in appreciation moving slightly to force his hand to touch
her exactly where she wanted. Her subtle movements drew his
attention to the gentle sway of her breasts and he found his
attention riveted by the twin dusky peaks that were silently
demanding his attention.

He fell on her, ravenous. Lifting her body slightly so that
he had better access, he licked and sucked her nipples until she
was in a frenzy, thrashing beneath him. He couldn’t seem to get
enough of her, the soft pants his mate was emitting urging him to
increase the contact between them in whatever way was possible. His
hand crept over the gentle curve of her stomach to cup her
intimately and she jolted at the contact, moaning softly. His
fingers slithered over the thin fabric and he groaned anew to find
her so wet. Shoving the material aside, he allowed their flesh to
meet. Erica shuddered at the contact, revelling in Sebastian's
ministrations. His fingers were teasing her, entering her body just
enough to tantalise before retreating. Frustration was building
alongside pleasure as desire continued to fog her
thoughts.

“
Spread your legs wider,” Sebastian ordered, his fingers
leaving the juncture of her thighs to tug wildly at her knees
determined to have greater access. The scent of her arousal was
wreaking havoc on his body and he could feel his control slipping.
She was his mate, he deserved to know her taste and he was
determined to know it regardless of the methods he had to use to
achieve that outcome. Her legs fell open and his head descended.
His warm breaths feathered over her and Erica trembled in
anticipation. He rewarded her for her obedience with a long slow
lick and her body jumped from the ground. The taste of her exploded
on his tongue and Sebastian growled with pleasure. “More,” he
demanded, placing his hands on her hips and holding her still for
his attentions. Her breaths came short and fast as pleasure
continued to mount within her.

“
Sebastian,” her voice was throaty, seductive as she called to
him, asking without words for the pleasure only he could provide.
His strong tongue lashed over her small clitoris and her body began
to tremble as she screamed her fulfilment.

“
Perfect,” he praised, finally releasing her hips. He sat back,
running the heel of his palm against his hardened shaft. The need
for release was pressing in on him, but he took a moment to savour
his work. Erica's pale skin was flushed, a light sheen of sweat
coated her skin but there was a definite smile on her
face.

The smile remained on her face as she pushed herself up and
crept towards him. The gentle sway of her body as she inched closer
was seductive and he found himself gulping, his body tensing in
preparation for whatever was to come. Now that she had the freedom
to look at him, Erica realised why he had been so insistent on
preventing her from seeing his face the last time they had been
this intimate. The muscle that his body was made up of seemed to
have increased, his teeth appeared sharper and his eyes were that
eerie shade of amber that she had only briefly seen once before.
Her hands were soon on him, creeping beneath his shirt to rub
against the ridges of his stomach. She tugged and pulled until the
shirt was removed and urged him to his feet before giving his
trousers the same treatment. Her nails ran down his thighs and he
shivered in anticipation when her warm breaths ran over the tip of
his shaft. His breath came quick and fast as he awaited her next
move.

He wasn’t disappointed as her moist tongue darted over the
engorged head before she took him into the warm cavern of her
mouth. “Erica,” he groaned as though in pain when nothing could
have been further from the truth. He shuddered as she took him
deeper into her mouth, her soft hand wrapping around the base. As
her tongue swirled around him, her mouth sucking him as though he
were her favourite treat in the world, he could feel his seed
building, making its way up his shaft as pleasure built within him.
Her hands and mouth worked in perfect harmony, bringing him closer
and closer to the edge. He shook his head trying to break the spell
she had cast over him. “Erica, stop.” She continued regardless of
his warning, sucking harder and he was forced to place a
restraining hand within her hair. She pulled away, her face a
picture of confusion. “Not like this,” he explained, dropping to
his knees and placing a brief but smouldering kiss against her
lips.

“
Turn over,” he commanded.

The seductive tones of his voice induced instant compliance
and Erica turned, going to her hands as knees as requested. Her
body seemed to know instinctively what he wanted and she pressed
her chest against the ground, lifting her bottom skywards. His
control was very nearly extinguished but he took a steadying
breath, realising that he had to ensure that her body could accept
him. Claws sprung from his nails and the flimsy bed clothes she had
worn were quickly and easily dealt with. His hands ran over the
smooth, now exposed skin of her back, one holding her in place
while the other reached beneath her to cup her intimately. He
inched a single finger within her, gritting his teeth at the
sensation that his finger was subjected to. “Hot,” he spat through
gritted teeth pushing his finger deeper within her. “Tight.” The
single finger was now sunk deep and he moved it slowly within her.
“Wet.” A second finger joined the first and he smiled as Erica
moved her hips eager to receive them. “Perfect.” His tenuous
control snapped and he quickly replaced his fingers with the head
of his shaft.

The claiming vows were ripped from his throat as he pushed
hard and fast within her. “
I claim you for
my own. I will stand by your side for all time because you’re my
mate, the only one for me.” The words left his lips on a harsh
groan as he became surrounded by her wet heat. “Erica, you’re mine.
I’ll never let you go.”

Erica lifted her hips, eager to take more of him and he
responded with enthusiasm pushing deep in a single searing thrust.
There was a moment of pain but it was gone as quick as it came and
then there was only Sebastian. He gave her a moment to adjust to
him, the fit so tight she could feel him throbbing within her, she
couldn’t help but moan at the sensation. “Sebastian.” She pushed
against him, urging him to move. His hips bucked against her, hard
and fast and she moaned loudly at the sensation he was causing,
rocking her own to meet him. His pace was wild, frantic but she
could do no other than to match him, crying out as ecstasy filled
her. The air was filled with the sounds of growls, moans and the
easily identifiable sound of skin meeting skin.

Erica could feel the crest approaching with each deep thrust
Sebastian made against her but she was catapulted over the edge as
his fangs sunk deep into the skin where neck met shoulder. Her skin
was supple beneath his tongue as he began to mark her flesh, he
could feel her sheath contracting rapidly around him, trying its
hardest to milk him of his seed.
Not just
yet.
He declared, his attention returning
to the mark he was determined to leave on her skin. His tongue
moved decisively against her, carving his initial into her flesh.
He withdrew his fangs, taking in the visible mark of their mating
and he breathed a deep sigh of relief before he began to seek his
release with vigour. He bucked against her hard and fast, single
minded in his desire to achieve his goal. His release snuck up on
him, surprising him with it its intensity. He growled, savouring
the climax that he had been seeking for what seemed like
months.

Finally,
his wolf sighed and
Sebastian found he was agreeing with him.

He fell forward, feeling the after effects of his earlier run
catch up with him. Unwilling to have her carry his full weight, he
withdrew from her body before turning them to lie side by side
against the damp ground. The ability to reason that had seemingly
deserted him while his mind had been gripped by animalistic lust,
returned in full force and he frowned heavily at his mate.
I might as well bring her to task while my body
recovers.

And then a second round,
the wolf
demanded.
And a third, fourth and fifth.
We’ll take things one mating at a time after that.

It was hard to hold on to his anger when he could feel
himself hardening as lust began to beset him once more but he
forced desire to the back of his mind, intent on the task at hand.
“What are you doing here Erica? You should be at home.”

She moved, straddling his chest and running her hands over
the tight muscles of his body. “Why? I want to be wherever you are.
Is that so unreasonable?”

It was hard to remember how to speak when her soft hands were
all over him, bringing his already semi hardened shaft to stand
hard and erect again. “What exactly do you remember about what I
am?”

“
Not much,” she admitted reluctantly, dropping kisses over his
chest.

“
Then for all you knew, I could have hurt you. You shouldn’t
have taken such a risk with your safety. Don’t do it
again.”

“
I don’t think that you could ever hurt me. It’s not so
unreasonable for me to want to be with the man that I love. I don’t
care that you’re different Sebastian. You should have told me, I
wouldn’t have rejected you as this should well prove.”

“
I don’t care Erica,” he began before what she had actually
said registered in his mind. “The man you what?”

“
I didn’t stutter Sebastian. I said it nice and clearly. I love
you. It’s that simple. Where you are, I want to be. It doesn’t
matter where that is.”

“
That’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. I love you
too Erica, more than you could ever imagine.”

“
I don’t have to imagine Sebastian, I feel the same
way.”

His smile couldn’t have been any wider but he realised that
he was letting her evade his questions and he forced his face into
a frown. “How did you get out? I had someone watching you. I didn’t
want you to see me like this unless your memories had come
back.”
