Taking What's His

"Do you have any idea how close fear smells to arousal?" He asked, his words making my breath hitch.

"They both make your blood race in your veins and thicken your scent. It's making my mouth water little one." He spoke softly. Tears filled my eyes as horrible thoughts began to occur to me and I deeply regretted ever leaving that room.

"Fret not my darling, I'm not going to take you tonight even though I so desperately want to. I won't force myself on you." He promised, but seeing as he had made another promise tonight that he had already broken, I had little faith in him.

"Now hurry on up back to my room little mate. If I catch you out of bed again tonight, I won't let you go so easily." He said, pulling one more deep inhale before releasing me, stepping back.

I could feel his eyes on me as I ran down the hall and then up the stairs, feeling hunted even though he wasn't giving chase.
