Eve

“Eve, don’t!”

Atlas’s yelled words are drowned by the pounding in my ears, my blood rushing through my body as the age-old dance of predator and prey begins – and for once, I’m the prey.

Loud footsteps pound from behind me and I know Kortez is hot on my trail. I can practically feel him breathing down my neck as I run toward the fence gate, dodging sprinklers and water hoses as I do.

Atlas curses in the background and I hear the unmistakable sound of a bullet being loaded in the chamber as he says, “Scream if he goes too far, Eve. He’s uncontrollable like this.”

I give him a small nod before turning back around and racing out the gate. Kor is already gaining on me, his boots heavy in the grass as he chases me through the backyard and into the woods behind my neighborhood.

He’s fast – faster than I remember, but I’ve been hiking in these woods for two years now.

The path I’ve worn into the underbrush comes into view, the dirt soft from hours of being walked on, but keeping to the path is too easy. Thorns and sticks cut the bottoms of my feet as I veer to the right, going off the path and deeper into the woods where the tree canopies hide the sun, making even a day as bright as today look like the middle of the night.

Birds cease their chirping as we make our way further into the woods, our heavy breathing and the occasional curse from Kor when he loses his footing the only sounds as we run into the thickest part of the forest. The trees here are huge, the native Colorado fir trees being so wide they could hide five of me behind one of their trunks.

I take a quick peek behind me to see Kor falling behind, just a little, but it’s enough. I turn right, flying between the trees and pushing the idle pain from my feet out of my mind as I make a small loop around. The trees are my cover as I come up behind Kortez, pushing my hair away from my forehead as I watch him come to a stop. His head tilts and I swear I can feel the force of his stare even from behind him as he tries to search for any sign of me hiding between the evergreens.

Creeping forward, I watch my step to make sure I don’t step on anything that could break and give me away too early. Kor’s muscles strain through his t-shirt as he heaves heavy breaths, his body completely still as he continues to watch the trees.

My hand reaches out, preparing myself to jump onto his back just as I used to do when we were younger, but he spins around and catches my wrist in his hand.

His eyes flash black and his mouth grows into a frenzied smile at my gasp of surprise. “Got you,mi amor malvado.”

I smile right back, “Do you?”

My free hand shoots out and lands a punch to his abdomen, loosening his grip enough for me to spin around and break free of his hold. The chase is back on as I take off once again, dodging trees and fallen logs as my best friend chases after me.

I dare a look back and let out a scream when I see Kor right behind me, his hands already reaching out to grab me before I can avoid them. We crash to the ground, his arms coming around me as his body turns to take the brunt of the fall.

He gives me no time to catch my breath as he flips us over, putting me beneath him on the ground and placing his open pocketknife between his teeth as he begins to rip my clothes from my body.

I flush red at his appraising look, his movements slow as he takes the knife from his mouth and drags the blade down my stomach.

“You bled for me, Evangeline.” His voice is hoarse as he takes in my naked body, wetness already coating my thighs from the adrenaline of the chase. His dark, violent eyes widen as I rub my thighs together, but he doesn’t watch for long before he’s reaching down and spreading my legs wide.

I hear him take a deep inhale, his hands running up and down my legs as he groans, “I tried to wait, Evangeline, but I can’t. I won’t.”

He leans down, his nose sliding up the inside of my thigh as he takes another inhale. “I don’t have to because you’re mine. You’ve always been mine,mi amor malvado.”

I nod, goosebumps pebbling over my body as his hands itch closer and closer to the place I need him the most. “Yours, Kor. Always and forever yours.”

He nods, his head swinging wildly as he lookswhere the blood is finally clotting on the top of my breast. “You bled for me…I bleed for you.”

Before my throat can release a shout, he’s slicing his knife across the palm of his hand, blood instantly rising to the surface and spilling over onto his tanned skin.

He drops the knife into the dirt and cups his bleeding palm, using the other to unbutton his pants and push them down to his knees. Silver catches my eyes, and I lean in to get a better look at the Jacob’s ladder running down the underside of his cock.

He wraps his free hand around himself and squeezes, groaning as he gives himself a few rough, punishing strokes. “One piercing for every year without you, Evangeline.”

He frees his cock and falls onto his back, pulling me with him until I’m sitting on his thighs with my clit pressed against him. My hips move of their own accord, rocking back and forth as my wetness covers his length and my clit becomes swollen with need. “Fuck, Kor…”

He grabs my hips, helping me rock against him as his head hits the ground with a groan. “That’s it, Evangeline. Drown my cock before you take your throne.”

My moans begin to echo off the trees as his hand leaves my hip and comes down on my nipple, slapping it so hard it makes me scream out as my orgasm crashes into me. My body shakes as he continues to land slaps down on my breasts, making my nipples raw as I slowly come down from what was surely the fastest orgasm I’ve ever had.

“Good girl, Evie.Mi amor malvado.Good girl.”
