The Dark Thrall Mating Olivia

Chapter Sixteen Everly

I looked down at Micheal's t-shirt clad chest. Marveling at the way the dark fabric stretched across his muscles. He drew a finger beneath my chin, tilting my face up towards his. His blue eyes met mine, and I drew in a shuddering breath as they flickered between the black of his wolf and the silver of his demon.

The feeling that was rushing through me was a primal one. I wanted to run from him, to have him hunt me down and claim me. It didn't matter that we were in the middle of the club that his father owned. His nostrils flared as he breathed in my scent. A growl slipped past his lips as his eyes moved down my face until he stopped at my lips.

Micheal wanted to kiss me. I could see it in his eyes. In the way his lips parted, and his tongue darted over his full bottom lip. He wanted me and I wanted him.

"Everly." He whispered my name, his fingers moving from my chin. Down the side of my neck until they rested on my shoulder.

"Alpha."

"No, I'm not your alpha anymore." He said and I swallowed hard. Those words should have hurt, but they didn't. It was like he was telling me that I was so much more to him without saying it. "Mate." I growled softly. I could feel my wolf under my skin, begging to be set free. To run for the alpha and have him claim us as his mate. It should have felt strange, but it felt right. Micheal had been my first crush. He was the man that had I compared every other boy that I dated to, hoping they would measure up. The only person I hadn't compared to him was Sid, and I didn't know why but maybe it was because Sid was my friend first before things had become physical.

Even now, I wasn't comparing Sid to Micheal. They didn't compare; Michael was my mate. Sid was my best friend and my lover. I didn't want to let him go.

I didn't want to lose what he and I shared, and I wasn't sure that Micheal would be able to accept that. Micheal, like me, had a mother with multiple mates, but would he be willing to accept Sid?

Looking back at Sid, I sucked my lower lip between my teeth as I looked at him. I still felt the same way about him as I had earlier. Nothing had changed. His eyes met mine and he stepped away from the bar, making his way over to Micheal and me.

"Go dance with your mate, Evy." He whispered in my ear, pulling back to brush his fingers over the top of my cheek.

"Sid-"

"Shhh." He rested a finger against my lips and looked over at Micheal before looking back at me. "I'll be waiting and watching."

He pulled his finger back, shooting me a smile, before he dipped his head towards Micheal. I watched as he made his way to the bar, picking up his beer and taking a long pull from the bottle.

"I wasn't expecting that."

Looking away from Sid, I looked up at Micheal to find him watching Sid with his head tilted to the side.

"What's that?" I asked.

"Something to discuss later. Come dance with me, Everly." He gave me a half smile that made my heart do a funny little flutter. Grabbing my hand, he pulled me out onto the dance floor.

The band was taking a break, and the music that played was a slow, sensual rock song. Micheal wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close to his chest. His hard body pressed against mine, and I moved my hands to rest them on his upper arms. Feeling the flex of strong muscles beneath my palms.

Everything about him was powerful, the aura that surrounded him. It screamed that he was in control and my wolf was ready to submit to him. If I were in my beast's form, she'd be on her belly and whining for him.

Hell, I was about ready to do just that. My body ached for him as we moved together, our hips swaying in time with the music. Our bodies pressed tightly together and I could feel his arousal growing against my stomach. My own desire was quickly building and I couldn't help but grind against him.

Micheal's hands slid down to grab my ass and pull me even closer to him. His lips were hot against my neck, and I couldn't help but let out a moan as he pressed an open-mouthed kiss against the tender spot where I would soon bear his claiming mark.

I tilted my head to the side, my finger moving up his shoulders before tangling into the silky strands of his thick red hair. He growled, kissing and nipping at my neck before his lips moved to mine.

His lips pressed against mine, it was forceful, with a hint of possession that was barely controlled.

It sent a thrill through me as he gripped me tighter against him. The feeling was intoxicating, and

I felt warmth spark over my skin as his tongue brushed against the seam of my lips.

"Everly." He groaned as I hooked my thigh over his hip, rubbing myself against him.

My clit throbbed and I was desperate to have him inside of me. For him to claim every part of me because I was his, I had always been his, even before I knew it.

"I want you." I panted before my lips parted, my tongue moved against his. Tasting the heat of

his mouth and his scent. Goddess, he smelled like pure heaven. It made me desperate for him.

I let out a groan, fisting my hand in his hair and forcing his lips to mine even harder. He growled, sucking my bottom lip into his mouth as the scent of burnt almonds grew heavy around us. Suddenly, I felt weightless and I knew we were no longer at Moonlight.

Micheal had teleported us away.
