Elara’s POV

My dear Dr. Pendragon, you didn’t need to go through all this effort. I had been craving you too...

But before that...

"Alright, get some rest. I’m taking off!" I called out, letting my voice trail off as I rapidly retreated my steps.

Silas sprang straight up from the sofa. His face contorted with a sharp pang of disappointment as he gazed at the vacant doorway. He believed I was gone.

His chest seized, and he released a sour, empty chuckle. He had raised his hopes for no reason. He assumed I possessed other mates now—men who were able to maintain their human shapes. I had an abundance of options.

He believed he had acted like a total fool...

The crushing realization pulled him back onto the floor. His eyes immediately began to burn. Regardless of the pain it caused him to accept, he thought I had truly abandoned him.

His shirt draped open, revealing one shoulder tinted a delicate pink. His muscular back was entirely bare as he kneeled there, appearing utterly shattered and defenseless.

My dear Dr. Pendragon, it wasn’t merely your handsome face. It was... your entire spectacular package!

I loitered to the side with my arms crossed, observing his heartbroken look. I released a quiet, entertained laugh.

"Weren’t you the guy who ordered me to walk away?" I asked.

"Elara?!" he gasped.

He must have wondered when I had slipped back inside.

Silas scrambled to his feet, consumed by a surge of relief and elation. The instant he laid eyes on me, his breathing hitched. He bit his lower lip, battling to maintain his composure.

The maximum dosage he had administered to induce his heat prematurely was striking him intensely right then...

Looking at me standing there, restraining himself was turning out to be impossible.

"Yep, it’s me," I replied, a sly grin playing on my lips as I strolled over and squatted down before him. "So... my dear Dr. Pendragon, what exactly seems to be the issue here?" I kept my tone intentionally breezy.

Silas lifted his gaze to me. "I can never conceal a single thing from you, can I, Elara?"

Why was he breathing so heavily merely from speaking?

I reached out and squeezed his chin. "You’re a completely awful actor."

Silas gazed at me, paralyzed for a moment.

My slightly parted lips, my gorgeous smile... The split second my fingertips brushed his flesh, his vision clouded over. He rubbed his cheek against my palm, subsequently gripping my hand tightly between his own. A sluggish, cunning smirk pulled at the corners of his mouth.

"So you’re going to assist me, aren’t you, Elara?"

"I refu—" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

I didn’t manage to complete my rejection.

The room rotated wildly. One second I was upright; the following instant, I was flat on my back against the mattress, securely trapped beneath his weight.

Silas’s kiss felt frantic, his scorching breath sweeping across my flesh as his lips trailed from my mouth down to my collarbone. My wrists were captured above my head, leaving me utterly defenseless.

Damn it, I figured as much. This deceitful bunny was never going to allow me to retain control.

A searing, moist heat blossomed across my throat. My brain began to whirl. Silas had me perfectly confined, his kissing fierce and dominating. I wouldn’t be able to struggle even if I desired to.

Oh shit, oh shit. This wasn’t just a playful game anymore.

My internal angel and devil immediately began bickering.

That isn’t what your body is broadcasting...

Dr. Pendragon is an incredible kisser. You definitely hit the jackpot, girl.

Alright, fair enough. Men who could kiss this perfectly were incredibly rare. All those adult videos were pure trash—merely sloppy, disgusting drooling lacking any actual technique...

"Pay attention," Silas mumbled against my lips, his tone a deep, raspy threat. "Or you’ll face a punishment."

He rolled me over. Prior to capturing my mouth once more, he violently ripped away his own top. I forced my eyes shut tight, way too overwhelmed to peek. However, Silas snagged my wrist and directed my palm down across his pecs and abdomen.

"Elara," he breathed out, his tone trembling a fraction. "Why do you refuse to look at me?"

His deep, panting syllables grazed against my earlobe. My thoughts went entirely empty. I trembled fiercely, dissolving into his embrace...

I was nothing but empty bravado, completely unpracticed. How on earth was I expected to manage an incubus such as Silas?

"Staring is highly overrated," I muttered with stubbornness.

Silas released a quiet, wicked laugh. He lowered his face and delicately bit my jawline. It wasn’t painful, merely sending a distinct, electrifying shudder cascading down my spine. His lips shifted to my ear, his vocal cords producing a deep vibration against my flesh.

"You’re telling lies, Elara. Bad girls require punishment..."

My heart hammered frantically in response to his seductive teasing.

Oh my god, oh my god. This is an absolute masterclass. I am genuinely doing this!

Dr. Pendragon’s faint, raspy groans are driving me insane.

I kept my eyelids clamped shut, yet my hands acted independently, circling the back of his neck. That minor, silent submission caused him to quiver with pure gratification.

He rejoiced in the realization that I was finally accepting him.

"Do you desire me?" Silas panted.

As a reply, I raised my palm and slapped his ass solidly.

It wasn’t intended to cause pain, yet the smack echoed sharply throughout the silent bedroom. The forceful contact caused his muscles to spasm. Silas emitted a deep, gravelly chuckle, his pale tail swishing without his permission.

I clamped my hand over his mouth, leaned forward, and murmured right into his ear...

Silas’s pupils dilated with astonishment and pure ecstasy at my statement. He reached up, yanked his spectacles off, and chucked them away.

Following that, entirely and absolutely, he dragged me down alongside him onto the mattress.

The instant he thrust inside me, I saw bursts of stars, my eyesight practically blinding white. I tipped my head backward, sucking in ragged breaths.

Hold on, is this typical?

I was aware beastmen were... heavily endowed, yet absolutely nobody cautioned me it would be this massive!

Fortunately, Silas remained motionless, granting me a moment to accommodate his size.

Teardrops cascaded down my cheeks without restraint, triggered by the intense, startling fullness.

"Si... hold on..."
