Forbidden Fruit

Promises and Seduction

Chloe's POV

I roll over, disentangling myself from the sheets as I perch up on my elbow. I come face to face with Alex, and I don't miss the way his eyebrows lower as he takes in my sullen face. Just rolling over has me gasping for breath but I ignore it as I use my energy to glower at him.

"What do you want?" I grit out , hating how hoarse my voice sounds. Alex's eyes focus on mine and I watch his eyes leak confusion at my words.

"Did you not hear what I said?" The way he asks it, it's almost as if he doesn't know whether to be upset or relieved.

"I heard what you said, asshole," I mutter rolling my eyes. I try to ignore the way my words make his eyes flash in hurt, until it's concealed in steely resolve that has me curious. "But what do you want. Nothing in this world comes free."

Alex frowns before answering, "I told you what I want. When you reject me, be gentle."

"Sorry to burst your bubble, hotshot, but I won't be rejecting you, sadly." I feel my heart warm at the relief that floods his face making me cringe inwardly as I continue. "So, what do you want?In return for your....." I pause, pursing my lips struggling to find a word that fits his proposal. "Kindness." I finish, squinting my eyes at him. Alex takes a moment to settle down on the floor, tilting his head as he studies me, but doesn't answer my question. Instead he gives me one of his own.

"You know werewolves aren't as...sexually mature as other species, until they find their Mate. So tell me Chloe, what do you like?" I gawk at him, surprised that even though he's openly discussing being a virgin and having no experience, the words go straight to my cock having me rock hard in seconds. Before I can even answer him, he raises his body to stand, asking me another question. "Do you have any toys?" And though he asks quietly, I don't miss the huskiness his voice tries to hide, quickly forgetting that he avoided my question.

Something is bothering me, though, so I grab his arm to get his attention, moaning at the sparks that erupt with the contact, his eyes darkening and his muscles become strained in an effort to hold back.

"Your wolf." I whisper, apprehensive as ever, scared to ask but terrified all the same not to know. "Is he ok with this? Will he hate me?" Even though I shouldn't care, I can't help the fear that shoots through me at the thought of his wolf despising me.

Alex looks down at me, his gaze softening, what he's thinking, however, is still hidden by that guarded expression. "His name is Tobias. And of course he won't hate you. If anything he hates me for not giving him control." He leans down until his face hovers over mine, his lips coming to brush my ear. "He wants to fuck you as a Wolf so then it's all him that's making you scream, but tonight? Tonight it's all me. Now don't make me ask again, Chloe, do you have any toys?" I point to the chest at the foot of my bed, clothes suddenly seems stuffy and in the way, though it's only a pair of shorts and a tank top that cover my body.

I watch Alex with hooded eyes as he walks to the foot of my bed, leaning down to pop open my trunk. I hold my breath, scared of his reaction due to his flowered state, but when his eyes catches the contents of the chest and raise to meet mine, I shiver at the look of raw hunger in his eyes. He picks up something from the chest, keeping his heated gaze on mine. What he took from the chest, I have no idea, I'm too busy drooling over the clear fight that shows in his gaze between wolf and man to pay any attention.

   As he slowly comes up the side of the bed, he puts whatever he grabbed from the box onto the sheets and beckons me from the bed. With wobbly knees that get sturdier the more I drink in Alex's arousal, I crawl out of the bed slowly, swaying my hips in a way that pulls a low growl from Alex. As my bare feet hit the floor, Alex takes a seat on the edge of the bed, leaning forward on his elbows as he watches me.
