Sacred Flame: His Enemy, His Mate (BL)-Chapter 21: Temptation
Kain Locke
Flashback
"What are you doing here on the first floor?" He asked,
I barely had time to process anything before strong hands grabbed me. And just like that, he yanked me up and pulled me into his chest.
The scent coming from him was crisp, smooth, but refreshing like the old cedarwood mixed with the sharpness of winter Forest, bringing a sense of dominance but at the same time an undeniable calmness that I nuzzled myself into, he smells so good. So good I don’t want to pull away.
I don’t have to lift my gaze up to know that he was straight up looking at me, because I could feel his heated gaze on me.
My hands clutched at his shirt so hard I know my knuckles must’ve turned white right now but I couldn’t care, the heat was consuming my entire body in a way that...
"Look at me." I heard his deep voice, so compelling and hoarse that I couldn’t stop my head from moving on its own accord and eventually my gaze met his, eyes so dark like an abyss. Lips that usually curled into that smirk was just there,
But for some reasons, I want it on mine, this isn’t enough, having him holding me is not enough, so I pressed myself to him, grinding my body against his and mumbling incoherent pleas.
He groaned, holding my wrist and backing me until my back touched the wall where he pinned both hands above my head and leaned closer, his lips brushing the tip of my ear as he whispered, "I asked a question Kain," He muttered hoarsely, his hot breath fanning the tip of my ear and sending tingles down to the tip of my toes.
My breath hitched, my chest rising and falling quickly. I tried to speak, but the words were stuck in my throat.
Given that his scent was overwhelmingly clouding my mind. His body was so close, his heat burning through every layer of my body.
"I-I..." My voice trembled, and I hated how weak I sounded. But how could I think straight when he was this close? When his eyes were locked on mine, dark and intense, like he couldn’t wait to swallow me in one gulp. And when the heat is doing unusual things to my body.
His grip on my wrists tightened just a little, enough to make me gasp. His lips hovered near my ear, "You didn’t answer my question," he murmured, his voice low and rough. "Why are you here?"
My face flushed, heat spreading from my cheeks to the rest of my body. I turned my head, trying to look anywhere but at him. But he wouldn’t let me. His free hand cupped my chin and forced my head back to face him.
"Don’t look away," he ordered, his thumb brushing over my lips. His touch was gentle, but his gaze was fierce, "I want to see your face... every little expression you make when you’re this close to me."
His words sent a shiver down my spine, but not in a way that made me want to escape. No, it was in a way that makes me want more of this, more of him.
He leaned in, his nose brushing against my neck, and I felt his lips graze my skin, barely touching but enough to set my nerves on fire. "Fuck, you smell so fucking good," he whispered, sniffing my glands, causing an electric shock to run through my entire body as his tongue flicked over the spot, and my knees nearly buckled.
I would’ve fallen if he wasn’t holding me up, his body pressing me firmly against the wall. "Weren’t you informed to that no one comes to this floor, but here you are looking like this and spreading such fucking delicious smell everywhere, what did you want me to do with you mm?" He asked against my glands, sucking on it so hard I cried.
"Answer me," he demanded again, his teeth grazing it. "My lips parted, "I... I don’t know," I whispered, my heart pounding loudly like it wanted to burst out and escape. "I didn’t... mean to... but...hot.. it’s hot... please." I pleaded.
He pulled back just enough to look at me, his eyes burning with something wild, something possessive. "Come with me."
He said but I couldn’t move from the spot I stood. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to, but I couldn’t.
My legs had softened in a way that I’d definitely crash on the ground if he released his hold on me.
Realizing my situation, "Oh..." he mused with a taunting smile and before I could blink, he swept me off my feet and started walking away.
The moment the door closed behind him, I was laid on the bed and he fell on me.
His hand going to remove his shirt button,
His pheromones were all over the place.
"You sent yourself to me," he growled, removing his shirt and throwing it somewhere before crashing his mouth against mine, fierce and demanding. His kiss was all-consuming, taking everything I had and leaving me breathless.
And when his tongue eventually slipped inside my mouth, licking my insides.
I moaned. I fucking moaned, as I kissed him back just as desperately, my body arching into his, but I didn’t care. All I wanted was him, him and him alone.
Kael’s hands trailed their ways over my flanks, back, and hips before they cupped my butt and pulled me tight against him.
His hard on rubbing tantalizingly against mine through our pants.
And I groaned from the torturing pleasure I’m getting from this.
With a groan, Kael broke the kiss and rested his forehead to mine. "You are more temptation than is possible for anyone to resist," he breathed, "You know I could put my dick in you and fuck you senseless right now," he whispered, his voice low and possessive. "But... sleep. My moc..." and that was all I heard before everything blackened.
End of flashback
Our eyes were still locked as I stood petrified on the same spot, everything rushing back to me...
What the fuck have I done? And with him?
That thought alone ran wild in me, making my head spiral for a moment. I want to dig the earth and hide, just as much as I want a time capsule to reverse and erase all that.
He broke the stares and glanced at me like we didn’t know each other.
Really?
My throat tightened as he walked through the room that had gone silent the moment he entered.
He has such a presence that compel obedience from people,
"What are you looking at? Huh?" The beta guard leading me pushed with a sneer and I snapped back to my senses almost immediately.
He resumed leading me out of the room, but I paused on my steps, my blood running cold when I heard what he said next.
