*This is it. This is how we are going to complete the mating processing.* Eva thought bleakly, her eyes wide as she watched her mate let out a deafening howl, his eyes glowing like pools of melted gold.
In that moment Daniel looked demonic, his hair pitch black and skin an unearthly paleness under the moonlight that poured in from broken windows and holes in the crumbling roof. The earth seemed to shudder in submission as the alpha roared and Eva thought her eardrums would burst from the sound. Then, Daniel moved at what felt like faster than the speed of light, lifting Eva off of her feet and speeding off into the darkness with his prize. A small scream escaped from Eva as Daniel burst out into the clear night air, sprinting across sprawling fields and under the thick canopy of the forest effortlessly. Eva had no idea what was happening, disorientated from the speed in which Daniel moved across the earth, graceful and swift as if he was practically flying.
Eva barely had time to register that they had burst through the blanket of trees into a clearing when she was dumped on a cushion thick long grasp, a yelp leaving her as she sank into the natural bedding. Daniel was gone leaving Eva alone under a clear night sky, stars and the moon shimmering like diamonds while a cool gentle breeze skimmed her half naked body.
Her body ached from fighting, most of her wounds were now healed but an ugly dark bruise covered the entirety of her injured hip. Sitting up slowly, Eva looked around, her hazel eyes wide with wonder as she took in the thicket in which Daniel had deposited her. There was a calm silence around her that was a juxtaposition to her racing heart and the thundering of her pulse in her ears.
A soft growl from behind caused the she-wolf to jump, whipping around to find Daniel watching her, his eyes ablaze with hunger and lust.
Daniel didn't answer save for a growl of appreciation as his eyes roamed Eva's naked legs up to his womanhood barely covered by the t-shirt Duncan had given her. He took a bold step forward, nostrils flaring as he breathed in the female's scent which was being amplified by her forced heat.
"Daniel?" Eva squeaked unsure if she should stay put or try and make a run for it.
"Mate." He replied in a rough voice.
The sparks that shot through Eva's blood as Daniel teased with his tongue and fingers soon came to settle in her core, tightening and growing with intensity until she was sure she would come undone any moment. However Daniel seemed to sense this and Eva whimpered when the Alpha pulled away, crawling up Eva's body, tongue drawing a flame line over her skin whilst his nose pushed the loose fabric of the t-shirt up.
"This is another male's clothing, mate." Daniel growled, eyes burning into Eva as she squirmed under him.
"Are you jealous?" She challenged, body quivering with anticipation.
Eva met Daniel half way when he leaned down, their tongues wrestling as their kiss turned quickly from hungry to desperate and fiery. Their lips never left each other's as Eva's fingers undid the buttons of Daniel's shirt quickly, pushing the material off chest and shoulders. She ran her nails over the smooth hard plains of his chest, purposely catching his nipples to illicent an aroused groan from Daniel. They moved together to get his belt off before Daniel gently shoved Eva back onto the grass, a smirk gracing his lips as he stood to remove his jeans and the remainder of his clothing.
If Eva didn't know Daniel was aroused she sure as hell did now as he stood her, his manhood rock hard and precum already glistening in the moonlight. Eva didn't have much time to admire the adonis like physique of her mate before he was on her in a flash, caging her in under him and catching her in a hungry kiss. She felt the tip of his cock pressing against her opening before he filled her in one smooth thrust. Her core quivered from the intrusion and Eva cried out when Daniel didn't wait for her to get used to him before he drew out and then slammed back in, sending pleasure shooting through her like a wave.
The night air quickly filled with their moans and the sound of skin slapping against skin. Eva screwed her eyes shut, digging her nails into Daniel's back, feeling his muscles flexing under the smooth expanse of his skin. She groaned when his mouth found one of her nipples, sucking and teasing the bud into hardness before attacking the other with the same fervour.
Suddenly Daniel stopped moving but before Eva could ask what was wrong, he leaned back, taking her with him, his hands bracing the backs of her thighs as he began thrusting into her again, her hips rolling as she looked down into his eyes from their new position. She could see Hades just under the surface and had no doubt that Kalla was showing herself in Eva's eyes as well as they both chased their release. Eva whimpered as she felt the building pressure in her core; heat pooling in her insides as Daniel's thrusts became faster. He leaned in to press an opened mouth kiss to the skin between Eva's breasts before moving slowly over her collarbone to her shoulder, his teeth becoming sharper with each kiss until they were scraping over her fair skin, leaving small red scratches.
Eva knew what was coming. Kalla howled inside her mind as her orgasm built with each hard thrust. Instinctively her fingers pushed into Daniel's hair, guiding him to the junction of her neck and shoulder, silently willing him on.
"Fuck…" Eva panted as she felt not just her release but something like pleasurable pins and needles spread out from Daniel's mouth across her skin and through her veins
She couldn't describe it but she suddenly felt complete, like a missing piece of her had finally been found or awoken. The mark throbbed delightfully as Daniel's teeth released and he seemed tomelt against her, tightly wound muscles relaxing as the silence of the night poured in over them.
"Daniel?" Eva murmured, rubbing her palm over the back of his neck soothingly.
For a few moments the male didn't move. Panic began to leak into Eva's veins and she thought they had been too late or Ethan lied.
"Daniel, seriously! Answer me!"She snapped, hands going to his broad shoulders and shaking.
"Thank goddess." Eva breathed, pulling Daniel into an embrace, breathing in his scent. "I don't know what I would have done if I lost you."
"Dead." Eva muttered, pulling back to look into her mate's eyes. "It's a long story but he's gone and I thought we were going to be matingin a horrible old warehouse but for some reason you brought us here."
"Yeah, it's weird...I feel like Kade somehow sent me a message." Daniel murmured. "I remember feeling like I was possessed and all I could think about was marking you but somehow I heard his voice saying wherever we were was not the place for it. Then I remembered this place and I don't know how but I managed to get enough self control to make it here…"
Eva couldn't help but smile. Daniel was going to lose his mind when he realised Kade was in fact alive but she decided it was better for him to find that out by seeing the beta with his own eyes. The realisation that this was finally over crashed overEva and her vision blurred as tears welled in her eyes before falling down her cheeks.They had survived and the pack was safe.
"Hey, why are you crying?" Daniel frowned in concern, his hands coming up so his thumbs could brush away the tears from Eva's cold cheeks.
"We should." Daniel nodded before a mischievous smile crept onto his lips. "And I think I know just how to start."
"Like this." Daniel replied as he moved so he was lying down before pulling Eva's hipstowards his mouth so she straddled his face.
