The Luna Trials by Marissa Gilbert

Chapter 33

“Kai, what were you thinking?” Savvy yelped helplessly. “Days? We are going to be stuck in a cave for days?!”

“You sound so scared!” he chuckled, brushing his fingers over her legs and lifting the fabric of the dress slightly higher.

“Scared isn’t the right word for what I feel,” she ran her hand over her face. “It’s a cave! There is no food, no water, no place to sleep! What are we going to do?”

“Oh, about that,” he moved her off his lap. “There are actually a lot of things to do here. Follow

me.”

He walked away into the darkness, and Savvy grabbed the lantern, trying to catch up with him.

He turned in a different direction from which they originally came from, and Savvy gasped when in just under a minute, they walked out into what looked like a much bigger cave, the bottom of which was filled with beautiful teal water that seemed to glow delicately.

Vaults and arches of stone resembling marble surrounded them, high, beautiful and majestic. It would be impossible if a man wanted to create something like that. Only the force of nature was capable of such a masterpiece. Savannah had never seen anything like it. The water shimmered softly in the light that came from the ceiling. This was another thing that amazed the princess. The top of the cave was peppered with glowing crystals. They gleamed in the darkness, creating an ethereal atmosphere around them.

“What is this place?” she turned to look at kai at last and lost the ability to speak as the King was already stripping himself, throwing his clothes to the ground.

“This is a place where no one else can get,” he said with a smirk, enjoying her reaction to his body. “The Sacred Northern Mountain Springs.”

He didn’t explain anything anymore and just jumped into the crystal clear water, creating waves around himself.

Savannah carefully placed the lantern on one of the rocks and watched him swim for a while. Werewolves usually didn’t like swimming too much, but Kai seemed confident in his skills. And also, he was showing off before her, which made her grin at him.

“Care to join me?” he asked when he swam closer to the shore after a while. “Or maybe the Western Princess doesn’t know how to swim? No worries then, I can teach you. I am an excellent

teacher.”

“You just want to get me naked, do you?” She arched her brow, sliding out of one of her shoes and carefully testing the water with her bare foot. It was nicely warm.

“I wanted to get you naked from the moment I laid my eyes on you, Savvy.” Kai chuckled, making her cheeks flush with his honesty.

“Then I guess it’s your lucky day.” Savannah’s lips curled as she slowly moved her dress off one of her shoulders and then the other, playfully shrugging out of it and watching it fall to her feet.

She stood bare before him now, wearing only the North Star necklace on her neck. He took her in for a few moments as if he was speechless and then a growl of approval became his response to her. Kai’s eyes were glowing blue now, and he didn’t even try to hide how much he wanted her when he stretched his hand, asking her to join him without saying the words.

Cautiously, Savannah stepped into the water, finding the sensations mostly pleasant. She had to admit – no one would be able to repeat that date even if they tried. There weren’t too many marble mountain caves with hot springs and magical glowing crystals in the world.

Kai was waiting for her, and she decided not to waste the opportunity to tease him more. So she dived underwater, swimming past him. Savvy was amazed to see that there were more crystals at the bottom of this warm lake, illuminating everything around them. However, she didn’t get to enjoy the sight for long as something even more magnificent swam right in front of her.

Kai caught her in his arms and pulled her all the way up to the surface. Water trickled down their faces as they were pressed tightly against each other. He could feel her soft and delicate body against his hardness, hands sliding over each of her curves.

They didn’t need any words anymore; all the choices were already made a while ago. So, when the lycan brushed his lips over hers, she parted them for him. The desire was overwhelming, but they still were not throwing themselves at each other. Now it felt like they had all the time in the world.

Kai pecked her lips gently, enjoying the smoothness of her skin under water. Deepening the kiss, he hooked one of her thighs and helped her wrap it around his waist for support. Savvy moaned when he started peppering her neck with kisses and then lifted her higher to bite at one of her breasts gently. This caused a wave of pleasant tingles all over her body, and she threw her head back
