Fight for Me

Layla lays on Nick’s chest, listening to his steady heartbeat as she draws circles on his chest with the tip of her finger.

Neither of them seemingly aware or even bothered of the silence filling the cave, nor the dirt smudges covering their naked bodies.

Nick too, is lost in thought as he traces her spine with his calloused hand.

He releases a deep sigh and she can’t help but glimpse up at him with a questioning look.

He looks down at her and brushes her hair from her face before placing a kiss on her forehead, lingering long enough to get a whiff of her scent, now mixed with his.

He groans in satisfaction and brushes his mark on her neck as he looks down at her.

“Mine.”

He feels her shiver against him at his touch and is quite pleased with her moan of pleasure, which she clearly has no intention of trying to hide from him.

“Why do you wolves always like taking ownership of things,…and people?”

He raises a brow. “Are you denying me?” He says in a deep and warning-filled tone as he grins.

“No.” She smirks. “It’s just,.. you make it sound like you own me. And as much as I like you holding me, I don’t want it to seem like I’m submissive and helpless without you.”

“But you’re not.” He says confused.

“Exactly.” She rests her chin on his chest as she continues to look at him with an adorable pouty smile. “It just feels like you’re stating your dominance over me.”

“That’s not how I see it.”

She looks at him curiously before he continues.

“I’m just keeping my promises to you.”

She raises a brow. “I don’t remember you promising to make me yours. All I remember is you trying to reject me, then tolerating me in your pack because I apparently blackmailed you, and then you almost devoured me on your office floor right before I had to leave, just for you to drag me back to your pack and say you won’t push me for anything. ” She takes a deep breath, almost gasping for air. “Besides,…..all you did after that was hold my hand and forced me to sleep next to you.”

He raises an amused brow at her.

She huffs out annoyed. “Y-eah. You did kiss me that time and said you wanted me. But,…….” She looks away trying to hide her shy expression. But he tilts her chin to look back at him. “You never touched me like you did tonight.” Like you had no intention of letting me go.

“You wanted me to?” He whispers to her.

She bites her lip and gives a gentle nod.

Nick gives an annoyed groan as he looks up at the dark roof of the cave.

“Fuck, Layla.” He looks back down at her. “Do you have any idea all the things I’ve wanted to do to you? Still do. Every second you cross my mind.”

Her breath hitches and she notices his grip on her tightening.

“I just didn’t want to hurt you, -to scare you.” He cups her face and brushes her swollen lips with his thumb, before possessively trailing his hand down the side of her body and admiring the bruises he marked her body with. “But you’re not afraid of a little pain. Or of me.” He squeezes her thigh, holding her firmly against his hard on.

She moans into his neck as she grips onto his shoulder and grinds her hips against him.

“You are mine, Layla.” He pulls her on top of him, wanting to feel her wetness properly coating him. She yelps, but quickly settles comfortably, straddling him right before she starts leaving trails of soft and feather-light kisses up his neck to his jawline. “I finally live. For you. -The only person I’ve ever wanted to call mine.”

“But Nick.” She continues to tease him with her ghostly kisses across his face, purposely avoiding his lips, as she continues to slowly grind her hips on him. “So many people are after me. If they find out I’m with you, they’ll come after you and the pack too.”

He trails his hands along her hips and helps guide her onto his firm shaft.

She whimpers against his ear as he drives his hips into her. He fists her hair and brings her face barely an inch from his as they both groan in pleasure.

“I have a plan.” He crashes her lips firmly onto his as he devours her mouth, playing with her tongue. “Do you trust me?” He whispers against her lips breathlessly.

“Yes.” She says without hesitation. She knows she can trust him without question. She always knew it, even though she always wanted to doubt it. But he’s still the only person that makes her want to give herself fully to. -Vulnerabilities, secrets and all.

She crashes her needy lips back onto his, eager to connect their bodies in every way. She grinds her hips, riding him and taking him deeper. She moans into his mouth as the tingles are already sending sparks through her toes and spine.

Even in trying to hide from the world, to be invisible, someone chased after me. He found me. He wants me. And he will fight for me. I’m not alone anymore.

“Mine.” Nick groans into her mouth as he flips her on her back and urgently drives into her. Each thrust more desperate than the previous.
