Page 50 of A Shadow So Wicked


Font Size:

Gasping, I stumble into a small glade, and I wince when moonlight washes over me. I dart forward, heading for the cover of the trees. Only a few steps and I’ll be shrouded in shadow again. One step, two…shadows wrap around my hands, binding my wrists together in front of me, and more shadows wrap around my ankles, tying them together. Yelping, I fall to the ground, unable to keep upright now that my body is bound. My knees slam to the grass, and I fall face-first, managing to turn my head to the side just in time to avoid getting a mouthful of brittle leaves. The fog stirs as I land, drifting away from me.

Lumbering steps sound behind me, and my heart thunders against my ribcage.

“Raith, you need to stop,” I rasp, completely exposed with my ass in the air. I wiggle to try and move, but more shadows hold me in place keeping me trapped there.Oh, crap.

I shouldn’t want this. I should be screaming at the top of my lungs. That’s what a smart girl would do. Or, you know, at least one who wanted to survive this.

But at the sound of my mate’s approaching footsteps, a confusing wave of desire muddles my instincts.Focus, Shade. This isn’t Raith. Not the version of Raith you could handle, anyway. And it’s not some fictional masked man from one of your dark books, either. This monster will ruin you.

My pep talk doesn’t stop the heat that spreads in my belly.

The monster’s dark chuckle comes from behind me, sounding through the clearing and vibrating to my core. “To think he was so worried you wouldn’t want us when you found out the truth, and yet, your pussy still weeps for our cock, doesn’t it, tiny mate?”

“I—” Honestly, I have no words. How do you reply to something so filthy?

“Raith.” I muffle his name against the ground, dirt puffing by my lips as Raith’s monster settles in behind me.

My heart pounds in my ears as the massive beast grabs hold of my waist, his claws gripping me but not digging in as his shadows hold me tightly, presenting me to him. Even now, even in his beast form, I realize Raith is taking care not to hurt me. That knowledge has a little more of the fear leaving my system, and desire taking over instead.Stop being stupid, Shade. You can’t take him. He’s huge. You can’t?—

My thoughts sputter out, as a clawed hand grips the back of my neck, and something incredibly large prods at my entrance.

“I’m goin’ to fuck you until all the shadow realm hears your screams and knows that you’re mine,” the monster growls. “It’ll be a warning that this pussy is mine to claim. Mine to taste. Mine to breed.”

Okay, so that last part reminds me that the foxret’s mating toxin or whatever is still in his system, and I feel like I should feelicky that he’s said it like that, but coming from Raith’s mouth… or you know, his monster’s mouth, all I feel is need.

His impossibly large cock presses more insistently against my entrance.Holy freaking shit.“You’re too big,” I say, fear fluttering in my chest. “I mean, we haven’t even established a safe word. How about…bananas?”

His laugh is masked with husky desire, and it does all sorts of things to my insides.

He drags the tip of his cock up and down the length of my slick heat, and he uses his other clawed hand to spread my cheeks wider before positioning his cock at my entrance again.

“Bananas!” I blurt, because as much as desire is making my stomach clench for my mate, he’s going to destroy me. “I said bananas!”I repeat frantically.

He’s still laughing, and I shouldn’t want him. I shouldn’t want this monster, but deep down, I do. A desperate need has me wishing I could grab hold of something, but my hands are still uselessly bound under my chest. For the first time since the foxrets attacked tonight, my magic finally responds to my commands. Tiny shadows curl around my wrists, loosening my bonds, and Raith doesn’t try to stop them. If anything, approval rumbles low in his chest.

“I told him you were made for us.” Raith’s monster lets out a guttural, animalistic noise in the back of his throat.

“Are you sure the safeword isn’t bananas?”

He laughs again. “I’ll tell you what, shadow mate. If you can get this pussy to stop weeping for me, I’ll let you tie me up instead.” As he finishes, he pushes the head of his cock inside me, and I gasp as heat floods between my legs. His laughter grows louder filling my ears.

The stretch stings for a moment, but then my pussy tingles and all I feel is pleasure.

And I want…more.

I have no idea how he managed to get it to fit, but I’ve never been this turned on in my whole damn life. At least, not that I remember. I wonder then if there’s something wrong with me, and then I toss that thought out because of course there is. Many things. And I’m sure I’m delusional, but something about this feels familiar. Something about this feels…safe.Yep, I’ve lost my mind.

“Are you all talk, or are you going to fuck me already?” I mumble against the grass impatiently. I’m sure I’m going to regret this, and yet, it feels so right.

The grip on my neck loosens a little.“Fuck, even my monster adores you,”Raith’s whisper sounds in my ears, and for a moment I think he’s back. But then the monster’s huge cock slides a little further inside me, stretching me and making me moan.Nope, it’s still his monster behind me.I’m not even sad about it.

“I would give you anything you wish for, shadow mate,” Raith’s monster growls, and I could be imagining it, but the words almost sound…tender.Yep, I’m delirious. Maybe the foxret clawed me without me realizing it?I feel the vibration of his growls run down along his cock and inside me, and I groan.

Raith’s monster slides his cock out before he pushes it in deeper this time, and my pussy flutters around his massive size. I feel more tingles down there, and the slight sting of pain eases, leaving only pleasure, like my insides are changing to accommodate him. The skin on my arms ripples and shifts before settling again, and though I still feel stretched down there, I want more. Though I know it doesn’t make sense, satisfaction settles in my chest, and I just know I’ve done this before. I have no clue how, but I have.

He pulls his cock out again, a low groan sounding in his throat when he slides it back in, still not letting me have the full length of him.

I whimper, feeling so incredibly full, and a forgotten memory pushes at the edges of my mind. I try to move my ass back, but the monster holds me firm. “Please,” I gasp, wishing I could chase that memory.
