Chapter 17 #3

I go round to the other side of the car and pull out my emerald green two piece.

It has copper embellishments and the bottoms are more of a thong.

Thankfully the champagne is giving me a boost of liquid courage.

I peep through the car window and see Lukas sitting with his back to me and he's already topped up both our glasses.

I quickly strip and put on my bikini. Grabbing a towel I walk past Lukas to the pool right in front of him.

I place my towel nearby and begin to tie my hair up in a messy bun.

I turn round to look at him as I do and see his eyes darken with intensity.

I give him a small sultry smile before stepping down into the hot water.

I stand waist deep and swirl my hands over the surface.

“This is so nice!” I breath. “I didn't realise how much I needed this till now.”

Lukas comes over with our glasses and passes me mine as he gets in.

His body is exquisite. Broad, powerful shoulders, muscular arms. His chest hair enhances his rippling pectorals.

My eyes follow the trail of light coloured hair to his rock hard abs then lower still as it forms a line into the waist band of his trunks.

With that distinct V shape on the inside of his hips.

My heart beats faster as I struggle to bring my gaze back to his.

“It's the perfect place to get away to relax and re-energise.” He says in that rough, husky voice that always has that soft soothing undertone.

We sit down next to each other. The water comes up to my shoulders and already I can feel the water nourishing my body.

“Not bad for a first date.” He says with a smile.

“Oh is that what this is?” I ask mocking surprise. “There's me thinking this was my dad’s ploy to get us out the house so him and my mum can have the place to themselves.”

“Carter has many grand ideas and this is certainly one of them. For more reasons than one.” He watches me waiting for my reaction.

“His daughter and his Beta would be quite the match.” I ponder over my glass.

“It's weird how things work here sometimes.

From what I've seen of my friends dads growing up is that they never get involved in their daughters love lives.

Except to scare away boys they don't think are good enough. Which tends to be all of them.”

He chuckles.

“Pack alphas work differently. The Alpha wants to see their children with a Mate that would be a suitable leader for the future of the pack. Your parents don't have a son so as Beta I'm being trained for the role of Alpha.”

“And when I meet the person whom I share a Moira bond with? What then?” I stare at the water as I ask.

He sighs and shrugs. “That would be for you to decide.

I'm not gonna lie. When you first got here I hoped that I would be it.

The way my wolf reacted to seeing you. Your scent.

It drove me wild. I'd never felt something that strong before and part of me thought that it was because we were fated. When you never gave me any inclination that you felt the same way and there was no connection in our minds I pulled away.” He rubs his face thoughtfully.

“But it could be hundreds of years till you meet your fated. I've heard some Nymphs never have.”

I take a deep breath and I think about telling him the truth. I want to. But shouldn't my Dad know first? By the Gods! I don't know what to do!

Lukas cups the side of my face softly and tilts my head to look at him.

“I can see you warring with yourself. I know we don't have a Moira bond but we have something. I know I'm not the only one that feels it. Don't worry about if and when fate will come along. I want you and I know you want me to.”

“Aren't we just setting ourselves up to get hurt when fate does come?” I say softly as I turn myself into him. My leg brushing over his as my hand slides up his muscular torso.

“Maybe.” He breaths as his hand moves along my thigh and pulls me closer to him. “But every instinct I have wants to make you mine.” He growls the last word as he kisses me.

I kiss him back and the only thing I feel is guilt. I don't want to continue living a lie. I care about Lukas and he's so... perfect. He deserves someone that doesn't keep anything from him.

His tongue brushes along my lip and I can't help but open myself to him. The kiss deepens and the guilt turns to warmth and arousal. His taste. His touch. His hands pulling me against him.

“Lukas I don't think-”

His lips move to my neck and I shudder against him.

“Don't think what?” He purrs.

I try and settle the riot of emotions going through me as I cup his face and bring a little distance between myself and him.

“You said you want to make me yours but... I don't think I'm ready to belong to anyone. I'm just now figuring out who I really am and I think I need to belong to myself for a while before I can give myself to someone else.”

His features turn soft as he brushes my hair from my face. His smile is kind and genuine as he kisses the corner of my mouth.

“I understand. You're on a journey discovering yourself and your power but that doesn't mean you have to deny your desires.” His lips brush mine and my body flushes with need.

“You can still be you and I'll be me but we can still enjoy each other.” His deep voice is filled with a promise that I'll enjoy it very much.

“I'm not asking you to give yourself to me. I want you to give into this moment right here.”

His lips are a hairsbreadth from mine. Waiting for me to close the gap. I know that I could pull away and he would respect that but he's right. I do want him. I want to give myself over to the pleasure we could have together. In this moment. In this beautiful place just the two of us.

Fuck it.

I close the gap between us and our kiss is desperate and intense. I moan against his lips as his hand slides through my hair. It's a passionate clash of lips and tongues.

He grips my thigh pulling my leg over his lap and I press my body against his as I sit astride him. His hands roam over my body as we kiss fervently. He reaches a hand around my back and pulls the knot on my bikini top. It falls into the water as he cups my breast.

“You're so beautiful.” He says as kisses down my neck. He lifts me up in the water and his kisses go further down. I gasp as he sucks my nipple into his mouth. My fingers gripping his hair. He moves to the other side. His tongue circling my nipple before pulling it into his mouth.

I pull on his hair to tilt his head up as I capture his mouth with my own.

My hands roam down his body to his trunks.

I pull on them and he kicks them off into the water.

I grasp his hard length and his breath hitches.

His eyes flash amber and I bite my lip as I slowly move my hand up and down.

I lean down to kiss him and his moan rumbles in his chest as the tip of him brushes against my core.

I gradually move my hand faster relishing in the pleasure it gives him.

He starts to stand and wraps my legs around him as he does.

He turns and lowers me down to sit on the edge of the pool.

He slides my panties down my legs and with a hungry smile he kneels down in front of me.

He lifts one of my legs up over his shoulder and then his mouth is on me.

I gasp as he feasts on me. I moan in pleasure as his tongue and lips lick and suck hungrily.

His beard tickles me in the most tantalising way.

Only adding to the intense pleasure. His tongue pushes into my entrance and I arch my back.

He moans in delight as his attention moves to my clit.

Circling and stroking. I feel my release building and my fingers push through his hair.

I feel his fingertips at my entrance as he slowly slips them in.

“Ahh, don't stop.” I pant as I get closer to the edge.

His fingers move in and out of me and his tongue licks the most sensitive spot over and over. My body starts to quiver and I cry out in ecstasy. My climax rushes through me and Lukas doesn't let up as wave after wave rushes over me.

Gradually I come down from the high to see Lukas wiping his thumb over his lips and tasting me again.

“I could feast on you every day and still be hungry for more.”

I bite my lip as I look upon him standing naked in front of me. Clearly he is equally as impressive as the rest of his large, powerful body.

“I'm still hungry for more.” I purr as I pull him down to sit on the edge of the pool.

I sit astride him as I take him in my hand. Slowly I lower myself onto him his size stretching me in the most delicious way. His hands grip my thighs as he groans against my mouth. I take half of him before slowly rising back up only to lower myself back down all the way to the hilt.

“Fuck Krista!” He groans as he kisses me desperately.

I kiss him back with fervour as I ride him harder.

His cock fills me completely and takes over every sense I have.

I feel the climax building within me again which spurs me on more.

I lean back bracing one arm on his knee and instantly his thumb starts circling my clit again.

I gasp and moan as the climax shatters through me and I pulse around him.

He lifts me up and I try to catch my breath as he pulls out of me.

He lays me down on my back and I pull him on top of me.

He slams back into me, holding one of my legs over his hip as he fucks me hard and fast. The noise he makes is a feral growl.

His eyes turn molten amber as I scratch my nails down his back meeting his every thrust.

His body tenses up and I know he's getting close. I pull him to me and kiss him deeply. He groans as he pushes deep inside me his whole body shaking with release.

I hold him tight against me as his body becomes still and he rests his head on my shoulder. We lie there for a while breathing deeply.

He gently slides out of me and lies down next to me.

“That was incredible.” Lukas breathes as he looks at me with a smile that lights up his face. His eyes are back to their vivid forest green. “You're incredible.”

I chuckle. “You're not so bad yourself.” I gaze up at the sky and see the sun beginning to set. “One worry though is how I'm going to find a morning after pill in the mountains.”

“No worries on that front. I can smell that you’re not fertile right now.” He states with a smirk.

“You can smell-” I prop myself up on my elbows and stare at him in disbelief. “You can smell when I'm ovulating?”

He nods with a crooked smile.

“Well I guess that makes things easier.” I laugh.

“For you maybe. It's gonna take all my self-control to stay away from you when you are.” He laughs. “Having an animalistic side that is totally controlled by instinct can be a bit of a bind.”

“Noted.”

I sit up and my feet dip into the warm water of the pool. I take his hand and drag him back into the water. I wrap my legs around him and we float there holding each other. He rests his chin on my head and inhales the scent of my hair before planting small soft kisses on the top of my head.

“So out of curiosity just how good is your sense of smell?”

“Put it this way...When we go back tomorrow everyone is going to know what we just did.”

“Oh crap so my dad... everyone will assume that we're together.”

He chuckles. “If we were together we would be mated. With Lycans sex is different than being Mates.”

“Ok... So what does it take to be Mated? I just assumed that was the wolfy term for being in a relationship.”

“Not quite. If we were mated than you wouldn't just smell like you've been thoroughly fucked.” His whispers that last word huskily in my ear and I bite my lip with a satisfied smile.

“Our own unique scents would merge together and we'd both smell more or less the same.

As for the actual mating, It sort of depends.

If it's two wolves then they have sex in their wolf form and complete it by biting each other to signify claiming one another.

With Nymphs it's different. The ancient tradition was the same but as the nymph can't transform... You can see how that sort of died out.”

“Wow I need more booze for this convo.”

Lukas carries on after we've both refilled our glasses and I have taken one huge gulp.

“Nowadays they would mate and the Lycan would shift immediately after to perform the bite.

There's also a ceremony where we ask Zeus and Gaia to bless the union.

If they're Moira then that bond alone is stronger than anything else and there's no need for a bite or mating ritual. Although I believe some have still done it regardless.”

“Wouldn't you biting me make me a werewolf?”

“If you were human and it was a full moon then yes. But you're a Nymph. You're Naturally immune to werewolf venom.”

He kisses me deeply and brushes the hair from my face. I snuggle into him and we watch the sunset together in silence.
