13. Tasting

“That’s a loaded quest little wolf.”

“Why am I here?”

“You came looking for me remember, and your mine simple enough.”

     What is he talking about I asked who he was. How is that a loaded question? Yes I’m Incredibly attracted to him but that doesn’t mean I’m his. Sure I may have lost myself in the moment, but I’m a Lycian instincts takes over sometimes. I don’t even know his name still don't have any answers. Why was he following me? How long has he been following me? What is he? What did he do to Aurora? If I was going to stay here and figure all this out I need to know what to do about this burning. How can I get answers if I have to constantly touch him it's too distracting .

“I’m not yours."

“The pain in your chest tells me different.”

“How would you know about that have you been fallowing me.”

“Longer then I care to admit. In my defense I didn’t know it was you. I apologize about before I lost control for a second I wouldn’t of hurt you. I could smell you you’re arousal  mixed with your sent I just couldn’t hold it back any longer I wanted to taste you.”

“ I uh, well I still don’t know what to call you.” 

“One of my name’s is Azrael, but let’s keep things simple call me Rider.”

“Okay Rider. I’m Solaris you can call me Sol.”

      Reeling at the mention of my arousal I was caught of guard when he just starts laughing hard. Grabbing his stomach, a genuine belly laugh loud, deep and hardy. What’s so funny? I can’t help but notice the musical sounds his laugh makes. I could listen to it all day. Seeing him smile for the first time was like watching a meteor fall to earth. Beautifully stunning I couldn’t look away it filled me with a warmth something different I haven’t felt before. Is that what happiness feels like? I  couldn’t let my self get distracted stay on track I need answers. I just watched him has he came down from his hysterical momentary high waiting to bombarded him with questions. Then he said the magic words.

“Are you hungry?”

“What was so funny?”

“Nothing Just Soul Rider it just fits.”

“Um okay I guess. I think im going to just call you Azrael, you mentioned food yes please.”

     I knew I needed answers, but I was starving. Honestly I can’t remember the last time I ate, yesterday maybe. I will start my Interrogation after. He sat up still holding my hand, we haven’t broken contact sence he caught me from falling. I was kind of scared to given how close he was and how drained I felt, I would probably pass out from the pain. Best just to follow. He pulled me up from the couch I stood and got really dizzy I felt my self swaying back and forth. His hand was on my hips Instantly keeping me up right. That same electric tingle went through me I wrapped my arms around his firm waist laying my head on his chest. It felt amazing he was solid strong with just enough softness to stay comfortable. I listened as he breathed in and out taking air into he lungs. A slightest grumbled played through his chest when my hands started moving up and down his back. I just wanted to touch every part of him to know every piece and commit it to memory. Bringing a hand up from my waste and placing under my chin directing my face up to his to look him in the eye he spoke again.

“Listen little wolf it’s taking every part of my sane brain not to rip or clothes of and take you on this floor. I’m more animal then man among other things that I promise you . We have something’s to discuss and you need to eat something we will get to the rest in due time.”

     Once my equal librium returned I took a real look around the room it must be a study or den. More books and a large desk covered the other wall the ceiling peeked with an A shape more dark wood covered It. I thought the fire place was the focal point of the room until I turned my head. Three large goth style staind glass windows cover the wall. Depicting pictures of Angels Demons Wolves, and what looked like cloaked women screaming. In the center towards the top was a large sun. In front of it stood a blacked winged angel with a hand out stretch to a women in white surrounded by light rays and wolves.  It was incredible. I couldn’t look away until he pulled at my arm and we began walking. Through a pair of double doors and into a huge kitchen and dining room. All open with huge ceilings not as dark as the study, because of the skylights, but carried the same wood through out. Simply put it was the most beautiful log cabin I have ever seen. He walked us over to the black marble island and looked at me.

“As much as I would love to keep my hands forever touching you, it’s not practical, I think I have a solution, that will make searing pain stop. I can’t have you in pain, just by being in my presence.”

     He let go of my hand and the second he did I had to grab for the counter. The pain hit me like cannon to my chest it was hard to breathe. I forced my self to open my eyes and push through the pain. I can to this I’m part angel and a Lycian this is ridiculous. I looked at him his hand was gripping the counter as well knuckles white his jaw clenched. So he felt it to. 

“What’s your plan this is getting old.”

“Open your mouth!“

     Why would I need to open my mouth? The next thing I knew his eyes turned black his fangs protruding, then he bit his wrist. What the hell was he doing? Holding his out to me just inches from my face he told me to drink. I wasn’t about to drink a strangers blood that’s discussing.

“Drink little wolf the pain will go away and it will help you gain your strength quicker.”

     I wasn’t about to drink anything from him. But he didn’t give me a choice and shoved his wrist into my mouth while holding the back of  my head. I fought for a moment to no avail, he was stronger then me. The second I stopped fighting the taste that filled my mouth it was divine. It was sweet like the darkest sweetest chocolate I have ever tasted. It filled me with a heat an euphoria, that moment I knew I was addicted. I didn’t won’t to stop tasting this little bit of salvation I just found, but he pulled away even at my refusal leaving a pout on my lips like a little kid that just got there toy taken away.
