Chapter 33
Tenebrys struggled with control at the best of times, but Delphi had been testing his sanity all evening.
That fucking red dress. It made her look more like a witch queen than ever. His queen. He was mesmerized by every expression, every flicker of light that played against her skin.
His heart was breaking, and his dick had been throbbing for the whole dinner. He wanted to kill anyone who looked at her. He wanted to shred the garment off her and fuck her on the table. She was so fucking beautiful that it hurt to look at her.
Delphi had handled his surly shifters so easily. She joked and gave back any attitude they sent her way. Her soft ass rubbing in his lap had been torture, and her sassy mouth had given him the excuse he needed to get her out of there.
Tenebrys left his fingers in her soft, wet pussy all the way up to his chambers. He kicked the door shut behind them, just so the others knew not to disturb them for the rest of the night.
"Put me down already," Delphi complained again. The walls of her pussy fluttered around his thick fingers, letting him know he wasn't the only one who was horny as hell.
Tenebrys undid the laces of his pants, letting them drop as he moved toward the bed. He sat down on the edge of it and lifted Delphi over his thighs before removing his shirt. His claws lengthened, and he shredded the back of her dress.
"Hey! I like this dress!" she snarled, trying to rise.
Tenebrys gripped her hair and held her down. "You should have thought of that before defying me."
Delphi struggled, and Tenebrys's tail whipped over her ass. "Fuck!" she squeaked in surprise.
Tenebrys maneuvered her head and rubbed her face over his cock and balls. "Suck or you will get another one."
Delphi's sharp little claws dug into his thighs. He bit back a groan and brought his tail down over her plush cheeks again.
"Bastard," she snarled and spat on his cock before taking it into her pouting mouth.
"Swear at me as much as you like. You will still call me alpha before the end of the night," he promised and stuffed his fingers back into her. Delphi moaned, his dick shaking with the vibrations of it and setting all his fur on end.
Dark goddess on her throne, Tenebrys had never thought anything felt so good.
Every time Delphi slowed her pace, he gave her ass or pussy a little smack with his tail. She was dripping wet, the sounds of his fingers moving inside of her almost obscene. Pink stripes criss-crossed her ass. She would be covered in his marks and come before he was done with her.
"You might not be a shifter," he said, fighting to keep his voice commanding and steady. "But you are my mate and queen. Shifters have alphas that they all obey. You have to defer to me as alpha, especially in front of the others. Do you understand?"
Tenebrys lifted her head off his cock. Her lips were swollen, precum and spit running down her chin. Her pupils were blown out. Oh, his little mate loved to be dominated and used roughly in the bedroom.
"So I'm meant to kiss your ass and act like a mindless, dumb girl in front of the others? 'Yes, alpha? No, alpha? I'm a pretty airhead, only here to fuck you, alpha?' You are mine. We are equal partners," she snarled viciously.
Tenebrys's eyes dropped to his thigh, where her claws had been scraping. She had carved 'DELPHI' in the bone plating of his leg. She had written her fucking name on him, like he was property.
"What the fuck is that?" he demanded, his heart pounding in his ears. This fucking woman.
Delphi's red lips twisted. "Just writing my name on you so you don't forget that I own you, and you aren't the boss of me."
"Dark hells, what did I do to get such a defiant mate?" he snarled.
"What did I do to get one that demands I act like one of his underlings?" she countered.
Tenebrys kissed her, his tongue plunging in her mouth. She bit him, he bit her back before tossing her onto the bed face down. He spread her legs, pressed the throbbing tip of his dick to her pussy, and dragged her down onto him.
Delphi screamed, her claws coming loose and shredding the sheets. "You..."
"Monster? That's right. I am, and you love it. You love my big, monstrous cock filling your tight little pussy, forcing you to take me as deep as you can," Tenebrys mocked.
He gripped her ass cheeks and pulled them apart so her could see him thrusting in and out of her. His spur was rubbing back and forth against her clit every time he pounded into her.
"Admit that you love me taking you rough and hard, Delphi. Admit that no fucking human man could satisfy your dark heart and greedy cunt."
She gasped, pushing back against him. "Harder. I'm so close."
He smacked her ass. "You don't get to make demands until you call me alpha. Just say it."
"I...can't," she sobbed, reaching for her pussy.
Tenebrys's tail wrapped around her wrist, yanking it away and tying it to her other one.
"No touching what's mine tonight," he snapped.
Delphi swore a blue streak at him, and it only made him laugh. Gods, he loved his defiant little witch.
Tenebrys ran a finger around the rim of her ass. "Say it, or I'm fucking this tight little ass of yours, Delphi." He scooped up some of their combined wetness and did it again, circling it with more pressure.
"You are my mate, not my alpha," she panted. "I'm a witch, not a...shifter. Oh fuck, Ten."
"Then fight me, witch. Prove your power, or I'm going to knot this ass of yours." Tenebrys pressed a finger into her, timing it with the thrust of his cock inside her pussy. Delphi's body bowed, light shimmering under her skin.
By all that was unholy, she was a vision. She was so dangerous and powerful that she could burn him to a crisp if she wanted to. It just made Tenebrys want to push her more just to see what her breaking point was.
"You're going to have to do more than put on a pretty little light show to stop me from doing whatever I want to you," he growled, licking the sweat off her spine. He worked another finger into her ass, slowly scissoring his fingers and working her wider.
Would she really let him do it? He thought she would have stopped him by now.
"Say the words, Delphi, or my cock is going into your ass," he warned. He touched the mate bond between them and was battered with her desire and pleasure at every stroke and touch.
Delphi turned her head and glared at him through panting breaths. "Fuck...you."
Tenebrys flashed his fangs at her. "Have it your way, my queen."
He pulled his cock free from her pussy, catching the wet come dripping out of her and slathering her ass with it. He waited for her to stop him, and when she glared at him in defiance, he nudged his tip inside her.
Despite their aggressive games, he would never hurt her, so he went slow, checking their bond for pain, noting every change in her body. She bit her lip until blood welled, but she never told him to stop.
Tenebrys's cock was being squeezed so tightly, he thought he was going to black out. He stroked her clit, making her moan and widen her legs for him.
"Breathe, my defiant little witch," he whispered, and she did, her body slowly loosening and accepting him. He thrust slowly in and out. "That's it. Fuck, Delphi, your ass is so hot and tight."
He lined up his spur, and it went into her soaked pussy with the next thrust. Delphi sobbed his name, her whole body shimmering with light. He kept his pace slow and gentle, letting her get used to it until she was trying to push back against him to get him to move quicker.
"Say, 'Please, alpha, fuck me hard,' and I'll put you out of your misery and let you come," he growled into her ear. He licked the tears tracking down her cheek and the blood dripping down her chin from the cut in her lip. "Be my good girl and say it."
Delphi's whole body shuddered and softened. "Please, alpha, fuck me hard," she whimpered in surrender.
Tenebrys laughed softly. "Anything for my queen." He lifted her hips up and pounded into her hard and mercilessly, exactly how she liked it.
"Oh, gods, I feel so full," Delphi gasped. "I feel you everywhere."
"That's right because you're mine," Tenebrys snarled breathlessly, her ass and pussy were so soft and wet, his spur so sensitive, he struggled not to blow. "Come for me, witch, before I breed this tight ass of yours."
Tenebrys couldn't look away as small flames lit up along Delphi's arms and spine.
There was no heat in them, and even if there was, nothing could have stopped him from fucking his mate.
He wasn't going to hold out much longer.
He reached under her and teased her clit.
"Now, Delphinium. Do it. Come for your alpha. "
Delphi made a gargle of shocked sounds before her pussy and ass clenched around him and light burst from her like she was made of living flame. Tenebrys dragged her back hard against him, and his knot slipped into her ass.
They both cried out as he came, fast and hot, filling her up so much it spilled out around him. It went on and on, Tenebrys wrapping his fiery witch in his arms, determined to never let her go. She could have burned him alive in that moment, and he wouldn't have cared.
Tenebrys slowly collapsed on his side, tucking Delphi up into the circle of his arms. They were both panting heavily, the sheets soaked underneath them.
"Are you..." Tenebrys tried to form words. "You okay?"
"Not hurt. Fuck, Ten," she panted.
"Yeah," was all he could answer, and they lapsed into silence. Tenebrys was dozing when his knot went down a short time later, and his cock slipped free. He pressed his come back into her, making Delphi moan. He couldn't see or smell any blood, which was a relief.
"You really hate the idea of me not calling you alpha, huh?" she teased, rolling onto her back. If he could have come again, he would have painted her flushed, heavy tits with it.
"It's about respect, not control, love. If you don't call me alpha in front of other clans, their alpha might think your allegiance can be swayed to their side," Tenebrys explained, brushing her tangled hair back from her face.
"Why would they even want me?" Delphi snorted with a shake of her head. "No one has ever really wanted me except for you."
"Perhaps because you are a witch with power that hasn't been seen for hundreds of years and because you're so beautiful, you rob a male of his senses," Tenebrys said, unable to keep the snarl out of his voice.
He lifted her in his arms and kissed her.
"They will all have to get through me even for a strand of your pretty red hair. "
Delphi tugged on his mane. "Fine. I will call you alpha if I need to in front of other clans, but don't you think for a minute that you're the master of me."
"Oh, Delphi, you really don't get it." Tenebrys shook his head. "I have been your slave since you first walked into my dreams."
