And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 61: Taken by the Darkness

“Ivy.”

A taunting voice called from outside the cottage, followed by a scratching sound that made me bite my bottom lip. “Why are you hiding from me?”

As much as I wanted to reply, I couldn’t. Instead, I remained quiet, and with my silence, I heard the cottage door crash open. His thundering steps echoed over the flooring as he stepped inside. “Are we playing hide and seek?” he chuckled deeply.

There weren’t many places to hide in my cottage. The distant voices of James and Damian echoed outside. “Hale!”

Holding my breath, I watched Hale’s shadow from the closet door. He knew where I was, and as the doors flew open. I tried to push past him, only to be snatched by sharp claws and pulled back. A cry escaped my lips as he chuckled. “Why are you running? You said you wanted to play with me.

“Hale, what are you doing?” I whined as I looked up into two dark, swirling eyes. “How are you shifted like this?”

“Because I’m not Hale… well, technically not.”

Confusion laced my mind as I tried to come to terms with what he was saying. He was Hale… his human form was present, but small characteristics had changed, and with them, something else came forward.

A more primal side of him took the forefront.

“What do you want?” I asked breathlessly as his tongue slid over my neck before tossing me onto the bed. I was turned on at the moment… To know he and his wolf had a need only I could fulfill, and as he stood over me, I waited.

Waited for him to pounce waited for him to take me.

The swollen and sensitive mound between my thighs ached, and with every movement my thighs teased me, begging for a release only he could give me.

“You should have listened to them,” he said with a predatory gaze that caused fear to creep in slowly. “You shouldn’t have run.”

Before I knew it, I was pinned beneath him as his lips met mine. The kiss was not as before, and his touch was not soft at all. Most women would have screamed, but me… I didn’t.

I was utterly entranced by what he was doing to me, and as his thick erection parted my folds, impaling me all I could do was moan in pleasure.

I was his to do as he wanted, and the voices of Damian and James were distant in the fog of pleasure that clouded my mind.

Hale’s hand gripped my throat as he fucked me with a force no human man could ever compete with and cries of pleasure escaped my lips over and over again.

“Oh, shit!” I screamed as he flipped me over and slipped himself back in from behind. The penetration was deep and slightly painful. Yet, it was nothing compared to the sensation of the knot at the base of his cock swelling and pushing against my walls.
