Blaize kissed her again, his hunger building as he took her breath away. Olivia could feel an urgent need rising up inside. She wanted him as much as he wanted her, and it was nearly overwhelming. It was a need more powerful than anything she had ever felt before, and she sensed it was the same for him.
Each kiss was deeper than the one before it. His hands brushed over her skin, his touch so light it made her feel that he adored her, that this wasn’t just sex but something more.
Blaize was hard and throbbing, his shaft rubbing deliciously over her skin, turning her on even more. Leaning down, he nibbled at her earlobe and she groaned softly. He undid her bra, his hands sliding around to her breasts, their warmth making her gasp.
Olivia’s hands roamed over his back as he kissed all over her face, moving over her forehead, down her cheeks, reaching her jaw. She worked feverishly at his pants, taking hold of his shaft when she finally got them undone, sliding her hand over his hard length while he explored her neck with his tongue and teeth.
Olivia made a move to lower her head but Blaize stopped her. His hands gripped behind her legs, sliding up to her ass, his fingertips skimming along the edge of her thong, pulling it out of the way. Kissing her once more, he worked his fingers inside her, one after the other.
They lay down facing opposite each other, his erection right beside her mouth, his tongue slipping in between her legs, touching her wet lips and sending shivers through her. He probed into her, a finger working her clit while his expert tongue got her wetter and wetter, twisting and turning in all directions.
“You taste so good,” he groaned, his tongue snaking back inside her.
Olivia couldn’t take all of his shaft, not even close, but she licked and sucked as much of the hard length as she could. It wasn’t long before she had to pull back, her own orgasm rising up quickly.
She moaned against him and he didn’t stop working her, driving her over the edge so powerfully she thought she might black out.
Catching her breath, she was about to take his hard cock back between her lips once again when he shifted around, setting her onto her back, lying down on top of her, his cock brushing against her legs while he moved.
She was so wet and ready for him, he slid into her depths easily, filling her completely. He felt so good, she was peaking again almost instantly, her strong muscles contracting around him, making him growl as she squeezed him, pleasure jolting through her.
Olivia cried out softly as her body shook with the intensity of her climax, her legs tightening around his waist. Blaize moved with long, slow strokes, his pace building up gradually. Olivia could tell he was making an effort to hold back, that he wanted to make this last as long as possible. Stopping and starting, he kissed her lips, neck, shoulders in between as his body rocked into her. His mouth was making her skin sizzle.
The look in his eyes reflected the pure desire that coursed through his body. Picking up speed, driving into her incessantly now, every thrust wilder and deeper as if he was devouring her willing body. A thin sheen of sweat covered his bare chest. Olivia gripped his arms until he reached for her, tilting her hips up to him, pulling her into his deep strokes, holding her tight.
Gasping and grunting, Blaize exploded, his cock pulsing inside of her, collapsing down, their sweat-slick bodies sliding together.
His weight was heavy against Olivia, crushing her wonderfully. She could have stayed that way for hours, safe underneath him, but he pulled out far sooner than she would have liked.
He planted a light kiss on her neck. Cuddling up against him, she closed her eyes, falling asleep her favorite way, wrapped up in Blaize while he nuzzled against her hair.
Chapter 12
Reaching the edge of the forest, Olivia stopped and faced Blaize.
“Wait here. There’s something I need to get for you. Will you wait?” she asked him.
Tilting his head quizzically, he nodded.
“I’ll be really quick.” She strode off, leaving a puzzled Blaize at the edge of the tree line.
Hurrying into her house, Olivia headed straight for the kitchen, going through one of the bottom cabinets until she found a medium-sized box. Yes. Her mother was always prepared for anything.
Making her way back to Blaize as fast as she could, she found him sitting on the ground, leaning up against a tree. He looked up at her expectantly as she approached him.
“I’ve brought some things for you.”
Olivia opened the box and took out bandages and rubbing alcohol. Carefully she worked to untie the tight knot of the torn fabric that was covering one of Blaize’s deepest cuts.
He watched as she cleaned the wound and rebandaged it. “You don’t need to do this. It will heal on its own.”
“This will help it heal faster, and keep it safer in the meantime,” she replied, starting in on his other arm.
“You don’t need to do such things for me. I am the one to protect you,” Blaize said, sounding amused.
Olivia shook her head. “That’s not what the Elder told us. We are to work side-by-side, helping each other.” All three of you, Ilythia had said. Blaize as the chosen leader, who is to have two others with him. How exactly that was going to work between Phyr and her, she couldn’t guess.
Closing the first aid kit, she handed it over to him.
“You can keep this,” she said. “Phyr could use some too, or if not, it would be good for you to have it handy anyway. So what happens now?”
The question had been burning inside Olivia since they left the Elder’s cave, but she hadn’t worked up the nerve to ask yet. Now was her last chance.
Blaize circled his arms around her, kissing her lips and hugging her close.
“I want you as my mate. Not only because you have been chosen. I want you no matter what,” he said, his dark eyes locked on hers.
The words made her heart soar, until he continued.
“It would mean you have to come live here with me in the forest, and rule by my side. You would have to give up everything you have known thus far. Your entire life would change. Are you willing to give it all up to be with me?”
The enormity of what he said sunk in. Things had moved so incredibly fast since she had met Blaize. If this was a conventional, human situation, she wouldn’t even consider becoming someone’s “mate” at this stage. She shouldn’t rush into a decision this huge so quickly.
Yet the chance at this kind of a major change came along very few times in a person’s life. Making her move from Wisconsin to Chicago, and then from Chicago to New York were the only big changes Olivia had ever made. They couldn’t compare to what Blaize was offering her now. This strange new world would be so far from anything she had ever known. It would be difficult and dangerous.
But it would have Blaize in it.
Olivia knew her answer. She hadn’t thought about much else since they met. No risk, no reward.
“Yes,” she said, and Blaize broke into a rare smile. His face lit up, dazzling her.
“Blaize. There is no-one I would rather be with than you. I love you.”
The words slipped out of Olivia’s mouth before she knew what she was saying. It was true, of course, but it was the first time she had told him and she could only hope it wasn’t the wrong moment.
“We are meant to be mated, no matter that the Elder has said so or not. I love you, Olivia.”
Chapter 13
“Take care of what you must. I will prepare too,” Blaize told her. “I will meet you back here tomorrow night.”
After a final, lingering kiss, Olivia left the forest, dark eyes following her until she reached her house.
The first thing she did was pour herself a glass of wine and carry it upstairs with her, along with a hastily-made sandwich. She had the sandwich finished before she reached the bathroom.
Relaxing into the hot bath, she swirling the wine around in its glass. Soon enough, she wouldn’t be doing any of this again. The thought was scary and exhilarating, making her s
mile.
Blaize went straight back to his cave. Setting down the box, he glanced around at the familiar surroundings. It would likely be quite an adjustment to have a human living with him. But it was time.
Stretching out on the ground, he closed his eyes. There had never been three to lead their pack before. There was a lot to work out now, and much to think about.
It could all wait until he had some rest.
“Blaize!” Startling awake, he blinked hard, trying to focus on the figure standing over him.
It was Phyr. Blaize sat up, rubbing at his eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Blaize asked. Phyr wasn’t one to burst in on him like this unless it was something urgent.
“We received a message from Rohan. He is demanding a meeting,” Phyr said.
“We are not supposed to see him until month’s end. Father is still working out a plan for the land and it won’t be complete before then.”
Phyr was pacing agitatedly back and forth in front of Blaize. “Rohan is claiming that we attacked his pack members.”
“I cannot believe he would say that,” Blaize said. “I have not known him to lie before.”
“Maybe they didn’t tell him the truth. But it’s worse than that. If we don’t see him soon, he says he will take our fight to mean that we are breaking off negotiations with them. And that they are prepared to fight for what they want.”
Rohan was going to use that minor clash as a reason for full-on combat between their packs? Had he planned it? The idea was incredible.
“He is insisting we go to him. Tomorrow,” Phyr said.
“Tomorrow we will go. This must not be allowed to get out of hand by delaying.” Blaize was on his feet now. “But a meeting in his territory? No. We will meet him at the border. Send word.”
“I will. We must be prepared for anything at this stage,” Phyr said, pausing before he left the cave.
“And, Blaize. He said specifically. No humans.”
So that was what was going on, or at least part of it. The wolves that attacked them would have told Rohan that Olivia was with them. A wolf aligning himself with a human would cause concern among any pack.
Blaize didn’t reply. Rohan was up to something and he had his suspicions about what it was. There was no way he would let Rohan take Fyryne down. Not ever.
