Elanor's POV
I'm not sure how much time we spend on the damn floor, because everything is drowned in pain and pleasure that seem to entangle together in such a strangely overwhelming cocktail that my mind can't separate them anymore. It burns. It feels so good. It hurts. Pleasure rips through me like a wave that crashes against the sharp rocks on the shore. It's maddening! It's amazing! I want it to end and yet, I want it to go on forever.
When I come to my senses, the sun is already up and the room is bathed in light. My eyes snap open and I look around in a frenzy. Beside me, Aeolian is asleep. He looks peaceful, his face is hidden by his messy hair and now i notice that he dragged the pillows from the couch under our heads. We're covered with the blanket he brought with him from the bedroom last night and I'm pretty sure we're both naked and dirty under all this. I slowly turn on my side and push away the hair from his face. His brows narrows and he groans, hiding his face into his arm. I smile and lean in to kiss his cheek, but when I approach him, I feel the smell of blood clinging to him.
I pause and hesitate. Blood? Did a wound open up?
"Love? " I whisper and Aeolian groans, refusing to wake up.
As amusing as that was, worry clings to my chest and I pulled the blanket off of his body. At first, I don't notice anything, but when he moves his arm, I notice something that leaves me breathless. There are bitemarks on his shoulder, on his neck and even on his arms, and not just tooth marks, but fangs. s**t! Did I bite him?! Did I lose it so badly last night?!
A cold shiver runs down my spine and I feel like an asshole. I bit my mate... not that... I bit my werewolf mate. It's no wonder he refuses to wake up now. Did I drink too?
My cold fingers touch my lips and there is nothing to betray I did that. There is a slight metallic taste in my mouth though, but I can't be sure of it....
I slip out of our makeshift bed and make my way to the bathroom. I was sticky all over and just as sore. But before anything else, I looked into the mirror, and froze. My usually hazel and gold eyes are now orangey and with every moment that passes, they seem to grow darker, redder.
no... nono...
My heart skips a beat and sinks into the pits of my stomach, and I feel like I'm growing nauseous. No! I did not ! I did not drink my mate's blood- f*****g shit...
As I clean myself off in a frenzy, still in denial, I hear groaning from the living room.
"Elanor? " Aeolian's low voice echoes through the empty house and I stop the water and rushed out, wrapping the towel around me.
He's half up, on his elbows, looking at me with hazy eyes. His hair is a mess, he looks pale and tired, but he smiles when he sees me and falls back onto the pillows with a gentle huff.
"Aeolian! " I yelled and rushed to him, my hair still dripping water behind me.
He starts laughing, covering his face with his palms.
"Are you alright? " I ask as I kneel beside him and he only laughs harder. "Why are you laughing, i***t? " I smack his arm and he peeks at me through his fingers, his laughter dying down slowly.
"Come here- " his voice is husky and it sends a shiver down my body and I feel like I'm about to lose it.
He grabs me and pulls me on top of him with a smirk dancing on his lips. When I roll on top of him with a huff his hands cup my cheeks and he pulls me into a kiss. It was harsh and we bumped our teeth together like overexcited teens.
"I missed you so f*****g much- " Aeolian whispers as the kiss breaks and I feel my heart skip a beat. "I missed your taste- " kiss "-smell " kiss "lips " kiss "-voice " kiss "-moans " kiss. Every kiss was rough and fugitive, his lips clashing over mine in a frenzy as I tried to keep up with kissing him back. "I missed feeling you taking me in all the way- " his voice grows sultry and why do I have a feeling he was ready to go at it again? He might have been, but I was so sore and- "don't worry my love. " Aeolian whispers and his kisses slow down. He presses another kiss on my forehead and he smiles "I'm not going for another round. I'm quite spent and I'd love some food. " he chuckled and I felt stupid.
"Are you well? " I whispered and touched his neck as I straightened myself on top of him, sitting on his lap, straddling his hips. "I bit you- " my words trailed off and my brows narrowed and my fingers traced the shape of his neck slowly.
"You did. I asked you too. " Aeolian murmurs and brings one of my hands to his lips, pressing a kiss into my palm.
"Why? What if I could not stop myself and- "
"You were in so much pain I had to find a way to dim it down. I did not expect for it to be this painful. The mark. So I did what I knew helped. Blood. I did not have anything at hand, so, I did not mind letting you have a taste... " he spoke softly, interrupting me. "You stopped by yourself not long after. You just decided to deliver more bites. Maybe as a payback- " he chuckled and he pushed himself up on his elbows, watching me with a cheeky smile. "I liked it. Don't get me wrong. I'd not do it again too soon, but you were so wild and unhinged..." his eyes cut from my face to my neck, and down towards my covered chest, lingering there for a bit more, "- I loved seeing you like that. I might want more of that- " he purred, the words rolling out of his mouth, oh~ so deliciously that I felt a blush tint my face as I listened to him.
"Stop it- " I whispered and hit his chest softly, lowering my gaze, feeling a bit caught off guard
The man fell back with a huff, mimicking pain, and as I grew worried again, he started laughing. I pout and hurried up. "Ass..." I whispered and walked away, not shying away from exaggerating the sway of my hips.
He burst out laughing and as I make my way upstairs to dress, I feel myself .... at ease. A smile creeps on my lips at the sound of his laughter. the fire was ignited again, but this was not burning for revenge. This one was passion, this one was hunger for him. for his touch and his kisses, for his moans ... for everything he was and everything we were together.
