Chapter 93
Zenovia
My heart almost stopped beating for a millisecond when he said that. How did he know?
Well shit, I forgot he could probably smell my arousal.
But then shouldn’t the water tame it down? I felt so nervous to even turn around and face him.
I had already stupidly blurted out my crush for him and now he could smell my arousal. What would he think of me?
I tried crossing my legs, which was difficult given we were standing in shallow water but I did it nonetheless.
I also realized that my dress was half-torn, the sleeves hanging down limply at my sides.
Shit. I must be looking like a desperate and horny female to him.
Despite the desire raging inside of me, I tried to step away. But Callahan was quick..
He came forward and I instinctively looked down, ashamed to even meet his eyes.
“Zee, look at me,” He said softly but my gaze was fixated on the water gently lapping around us. The moonlight was twinkling on the water’s surface, making it look like we were surrounded by liquid silver.
When I did not, his tone became a bit stern.
“Zee, that is an order”
I slowly looked up at him and muttered, “I…I am not sure what is happening to me. I thought after all the training, I would be in better control.”
He raised a hand to place it under my chin and replied, “Who said you aren’t?”
I tried to swallow back the tears building up inside of me. “This…what you are going through…is natural. We awaken our wolves and not everybody learns how to adapt to the changes in the first go.”
“B-But, I am a late bloomer already. And it is not even my birthday…and I dragged you here, blabbered all nonsense and now I can’t even transform yet you…you can sense…”
He looked at me as if waiting for me to complete, “I can sense…what?”
“My…my arousal…” I answered meekly and my cheeks turned a bright shade of red.
Callahan took a step forward and I gulped, “Are you not going to ask me like last time?”
His words made my eyes nearly pop out of my sockets.
“I…I…” I stammered.
“So you are telling me, you can kiss me in the meeting hall but now that you are all wet… you are suddenly prudish?”
“I am not prudish” I answered with a huff and his voice was even when he said, “Prove it”
My heart was thudding so hard that I felt it would explode.
And as if in response to his statement, I felt heat start to build up in my core again.
Callahan was looking intently at me and I was failing this battle. Miserably.
“Maybe you need a little help. You can barely stand straight,” He said when I did not answer and he bent down a little.
And with a single motion, he reached for the fabric of my gown and I felt his hands brush the folds of the soft fabric that he tore away to reach my legs.
He only meant to make me stand straight but I let out a shriek and nearly slipped when I felt his fingers brush behind my knee. Not wanting to fall, I clutched at his shirt for support and in that instant, his hand wrapped around my waist and he pulled me up.
He was holding me in his arms and he tried to push me into the water again.
“Wait, no!!”
I scrambled up, almost climbing him up like a cat, clutching him tightly and he did that again, lowering my head in the
water.
“No, what are you doing?”
I shrieked but he took a few steps forward where the water was less shallow and repeated his attempt at drowning me. At least, it felt like that was what he was doing.
“Callahan, no!!” I tried to repeat but then his hand went around my legs and I thought he was pulling me down again.
So I wrapped them around his waist automatically and locked them behind his back, not wanting to give him a chance to throw me in the water again.
A slow smile spread on his face and I realized what he had done. A bit too late. While I was climbing him up like a cat, he had gathered my dress in a heap and thrown it away on the dry patch of land.
I felt something poke in between my legs, something hard.
And I tried not to blush.
“THAT is also natural…stop fighting it,” He said and I realized that I was just in my bra and panties again.
“Dru… Drusilla warned me not to fall for you”
He lowered his head and our foreheads were touching, “Then don’t”
My dress had been discarded in the mud at the edge of the lake and we were a bit deeper into the waters.
The cold water and breeze suddenly made me feel chilly and I shivered as another hot wave of heat blossomed in my core and traveled all the way up to my hands.
I could not fight it anymore. I would worry about his jabs and pokes and how he would call me names later.
Thus, with shivering hands, I pulled his shirt and my lips touched his again.
I heard a soft grunt in response as we began kissing as if our lives depended on it. There was nothing soft and sweet about it.
This was raw, pure want.
Callahan’s hand traveled up my butt and he squeezed it while another went to my hair and roamed through it.
My body was making me do odd things again but I did not mind as it was with Callahan, someone I trusted with my body and desires.
The water was lapping at us as he crushed my lips and leaned forward while tightly clutching to me so that I would not fall.
I smiled at that. This man was heavenly.
The kiss ignited the already raging heat inside of me and I wanted his lips all over me again. My entire body was craving for him, wanting him.
I did not care what Drusilla thought, her visions would not always be right either way. So I pushed her thoughts away and reached for his head, burying my fingers in his silky hair.
