A Court of Shadows

Chapter 8 - (Inevitable) Mess

I must have dozed off when i came home.. I was now laying in bed, feeling exhausted. Mental fatigue is real.. I stretched my body and.. something felt weird. Those sheets don't feel like mine. I opened my eyes, still laying in bed. This isn't my ceiling? I sat up, taking in the unfamiliar room. This is definitely not my room. Where the hell am i?  I tried to remember if i went drinking after work, and this was the next morning in a fling's room.. It would explain why i was sleeping in my underwear. I heard steps outside, coming closer and i instictively pulled the sheets over me. I saw the doornob turn and he walked in.

''No need to get all shy on me..'' Azriel smirked. '' I've already seen everything.''

''Doesn't mean you get to see it today too.'' I said coldly. Wait, why am i mad at him? I'm tired and confused and need to get home. I got on my feet, but Azriel walked to me, smiling and cupped my face.

''Where do you think you're going?'' He tilted his head and gave me his insufferable smirk. I felt his hands slide down to my shoulders. 

''I just want to go home, i'm not in the mood Az..'' I tried to get free of his hold but he strengthened his grib on my shoulders.

''You're not going anywhere..'' Azriel took a step closer and was now towering over me, practically forcing me to look up to him. ''You've been very bad lately..'' His hands slid down to my arms, and pulled me against him. His lips were touching my cheek as he went on,

''And you know what happens to bad girls, don't you?''

I hate to admit that even if i wasn't in the mood, my body felt awake under his touch, and as much as i hated his arrogant ass, in this moment, all i  wanted was to kiss him. So i decided to play his game.

''They get punished? That's what you want to hear Az?'' I purred to him.

''Damn yes they do.'' His smile told me that i would be in for a long, long night of punishment.

He suddenly pushed me to the bed. ''Okay, we're being rough today, i like it.'' I breathed out, as i propped myself up on my elbows.

He used his knee to push my legs open. I felt his hand trailing from my knee to my thigh and... stopping. Next thing i knew, he roughly grabbed both my thighs and pulled them closer to the edge of the bed. Azriel's hand was now caressing my abdomen, working his way up to my breasts.

''You've been mean to my friends.. I don't like that..'' He said softly, but his gaze was cold.

''That's bulls-'' with one hand around my throat he pinned me down before i could sit-up.

''Silence.'' He didn't let go of my throat. I didn't feel that turned-on anymore. He really looked mad and i wasn't into revenge fucking, unless i initiate it. 

''And as if this wasn't enough..'' Azriel spoke soflty, but i could feel that he was mad. He used his other hand to take the strap of my bra off my shoulder, and free one breast. He made little circles over my nipple, smiling as he watched it harden.

''You've also been flirting with other men..'' He went on. Wait what? I felt his hand get tighter around my throat. I tapped his arm to let go of me but he ignored it. My breathing became almost a wheeze.

''Am i not enough for you?'' Azriel growled, and i opened my mouth but couldn't make a sound. He finally loosened his arm and i could finally breathe.

''Are you out of your Gods-damned mind Azriel?'' I swatted his hand away.

''Are you going to deny it?'' 

''Of course. Now out of my way.'' I made yet another failed attempt to sit up.
