The wolf was— I blinked, only once, just to make sure that what I was seeing was actually happening. The wolf was turning into a man.
And not just any man.
Within less than a minute, the animal that I’d just been face to face with was gone, and I, instead
found myself staring at the sweaty, naked frame of Andreas Vilks. His jaw was clenched in anger, but the rest of his body betrayed him. He was erect, and we were so close to one another that I could feel the heat coming off his body. The fear that had been boiling inside me for the last couple of minutes was suddenly mixed with an overwhelming wave of passion, and I acted without thinking. Closing the gap between us, I threw my body onto his. He reacted in kind, taking me into his strong arms and parting my mouth with his tongue in a ferocious kiss. He tasted salty, and I could’ve sworn his canine teeth were still slightly sharp as he brought them down on my bottom lip and took a gentle bite. I moaned as a bead of blood formed in my mouth, bringing a whole new flavor to our kissing.
Andreas carried me over to a wooded area next to the road and pushed me back against the first solid tree we came to. The bark was rough and poked through my sweatshirt, scraping my skin, but I didn’t care. In fact, I kind of liked it. He pushed his tongue further into my mouth and held onto me tight as I shimmied out of the top layer of clothes. Once I was left in only a thin t-shirt, he reached a hand up underneath the fabric and caressed one of my breasts. He pinched one of my perky nipples, and I gasped with delight. Even through my pants, I could feel his erection grinding into me. But Andreas didn’t seem interested in serving himself. Not yet, at least.
He lifted me from the tree, and the next thing I knew, I was on a bed of pine needles and loose leaves. Andreas pawed at the rest of my clothing until I was also naked. The air was cool, but Andreas’ body was hot to the touch. He bent down over me and kissed his way from my neck, carving a path between my breasts and pausing for just a moment at the base of my stomach. My back arched with the anticipation of what was to come, and thankfully, Andreas didn’t tease me for long. He positioned himself between my legs, digging his fingers into the flesh of my upper thighs, and then brought his wet mouth against me. Taking his time, he let his tongue explore the area. He penetrated me and then sucked on my swollen clit, taking me close to the edge of climax but then pulling back each time before I could fully submit to the pleasure.
Finally, he must’ve realized I was going mad, and he stopped playing games. He plunged two of his long fingers inside of me and tickled my bud with the tip of his tongue. My moan turned into more of a primal scream as I grabbed a fist full of pine needles. “Yes, yes,” I said. “God, yes!”
He pushed his hand harder, finger fucking me with a delicious intensity, and my eyes rolled back into my head as I gushed all over his face and finished with a breathy sigh. My body was still shuddering when he crawled on top of me, and the feeling of his hard cock sliding into my slippery opening was even better than I remembered. We fit perfectly together. He was just big enough to rock my world but not so large that it hurt. He pushed himself as far as he could go, reaching so deep that I felt like he might get lost in there. Not that I would mind. I never wanted to let go of this sensation.
He thrust in and out, teasing both himself and me as he moved the tip of his cock around the sides of my vagina before entering me again. I looked up at him, and when our eyes met, I could see a whole sea of emotions behind his gaze. He was hungry for me that much was obvious, but there was also something a little more complicated going on. Was he feeling guilty? Before I could worry too much about it, however, Andreas had freed up one of his hands so that he could press the pads of his fingers into my clitoris as he sped up his thrusting.
The pleasure was too intense, and I closed my eyes again as he continued to feed my desire for him both inside and out. I could feel his breath on my neck as he bent down over me, and I turned so that our lips could meet. Now, our bodies were locked together in two places, and even though I had just had a powerful orgasm mere minutes ago, another one started up the moment our tongues entwined. He made a sound that was part-grown, part-growl as I raked my fingers through his hair and succumbed to another climax. His fingers dug into the pleasure point of my body, and I finished at the same time as him. He drilled into me once more, spilling himself as I breathed in a lungful of cool forest air and let it go with sweet, sticky relief.
Andreas collapsed his weight on top of me for a second, seemingly exhausted by all the work he’d just put in, and for a second, neither of us spoke.
Our breathing synced, and I felt we were both still riding the wave of that unexpected yet absolutely mind-blowing experience.
Chapter 17
Andreas
It only took a minute or two for the blood to finally rush back to my brain and for me to understand what had just happened. In the moment, it had all been a blur. I was running through the forest, relishing being in wolf form again after such a long time—then I caught Diana’s scent. Her smell had gone straight through my frontal cortex and dug into the more primal part of my brain. I ran to her, but I couldn’t control myself when I saw her. I shifted right in front of her, and then?—
A few images of the amazing sex we just had rushed through my mind, but I pushed them away at the same time that I pushed myself away from her naked, goose-bumped body. I slid myself out from between her legs and didn’t make eye contact as I got to my feet. I couldn’t believe I had let this happen again.
“What the fuck are you doing here?” I demanded to know.
She didn’t say anything. After a few seconds, I met her eyes. Her expression was one part angry and two parts hurt, and I immediately regretted talking to her like that. That was no way to speak to someone who I’d just had sex with, and it wasn’t like she had taken advantage of me.
“What I mean is—why did you come back here?”
She pushed herself up into a sitting position and began to pull her underwear and pants back on. I wasn’t sure what the polite thing was for me to do, so I looked away as if we weren’t already well past decorum. “I needed to see for myself,” she said eventually.
“See what?”
“The truth.”
I winced. There was no way I could convince her she hadn’t seen anything. That would be a level of gaslighting that I knew I wouldn’t be able to sell. Not to mention how insulting it would be to Diana’s intelligence. As angry as I was to have caught her snooping around the compound in the middle of the night, I didn’t exactly have a leg to stand on when it came to right and wrong. Instead of scaring her off as the wolf or shifting back into human form and telling her to leave, I opted to take an alternative approach. Now, I’d officially lost the moral high ground.
“Diana,” I said, reaching to rub my temples. It was late, but while my body was zonked, my mind was wide awake. “You shouldn’t have come back here. I thought you understood how dangerous it was. I thought?—”
“Dangerous?” She laughed. “Sure, I guess you impressed upon me that you might call the cops if I showed up again, but you didn’t exactly mention that I might also be attacked by a—a—” She stopped short of saying the word.
“By what?” I wanted to know what she thought I was—if she had any grasp of truly what was going on.
She gulped but then looked me dead in the eye. “A fucking werewolf.”
I scowled and turned away from her, not sure who I was actually angry with, her or myself. Thankfully, we weren’t far from where I’d stashed an extra set of clothes before going for a run. I walked in that direction and after throwing her own sweatshirt back on, she followed me.
“That’s what you are,” she said. “I know the full truth now. There’s no use denying it. In fact, I already had my suspicions before I showed up here tonight, and everything that just happened, well…”
“What do you mean you had your suspicions?” We reached the clearing where I had a pair of folded sweats and a t-shirt waiting for me. Diana had turned off her flashlight so now there was hardly enough light for her to see me by. I, on the other hand, could see her almost perfectly. “How could you have possibly been suspicious of something like this?”
