Under Her Skin [+18]

The door was dragged open as if someone was forcing themselves to push through the pain of touching iron. She knew the guards who had dragged her inside had worn gloves on their hands, as if they were the guards of the dungeons. Maybe they were.

She didn't know.

Katara had woken up beside the door several hours ago, feeling the pain of the iron piercing through her skin like knives. She had crawled to the corner of the wall the same way she had crawled to her mother.

That morning, the one she had fought her mind to forget, had come crawling back, screaming the same words at her. You are stupid to believe I've left.

The nightmares were real and she did nothing but embrace them.

"I think she's in this one."

Katara opened her eyes slowly at the sound of Delphine's words and Willa answered her back. The door was pulled open and she stared at Erix, at the red hands, at the blood splattered on his face.

She let out a soft breath. He had come for her. No matter what had bound him to the Prince, he had still come for her. He walked into the room, a slight wince in his shoulders but he bent down, grabbing her by her arm roughly. "I'm not going to carry you out of here because you're not a damsel." He shoved the sword in her hands. "Use it." He forced her to wrap her hands around the hilt. "And Princess?" He pressed two fingers on her chin, tilting her face up. "Turn this land to ash."

She nodded her head.

"See? I told you Willa, she was in here!" Delphine said, standing outside the room, not even crossing the line. Katara walked around Erix and forced her weak legs to walk towards Delphine who was grinning at her. Katara wrapped her arms around her, and Delphine chuckled, pulling Katara out of the room.

Fire burned inside of her body but she clung onto it, not wanting to burn Delphine. "Thank you so much. You have no idea how much this means to me."

She felt Willa wrap her hands around both of them. "I want to come over for tea when you save Eridaya."

Katara hid the smile on her face as she pulled away from the two females who had somehow wormed their way into her heart.

"We need to go." Erix wrapped a hand around her arm, pulling her away from the two females who grinned and waved, having no care in the world that they were standing in the dungeons.

"I'm from Eridaya!" Suddenly a raspy voice shouted out from one of the iron rooms. "Please! Save me!" The female pleaded.

"Erix, wait.." She tried to pull away from him.

He turned around, glancing at the door where the female spoke from before looking down at her. "The beasts behind these doors are not from Eridaya. They will speak any language you wish to hear, pulling on the strings of your heart, so switch it off, princess and walk that ass of yours out of here before I throw you over my shoulder and fly you to Eridaya myself."

He was glaring at her.

"Set them all free. It'll cause a distraction." She blurted out, staring up at him.

He lowered his hold on her arm and wrapped his fingers around her wrist. Without saying a word, he pulled her up the stairs and into the hall that had dead bodies lying around. She followed him, as his eyes moved over every inch of the hall. She listened to his calm heart, beating in his chest.

Erix was being overprotective of her, and she wondered if she came in contact with any male, if he would just plunge the dagger his hand tightened on without a single thought.

She wrapped her fingers around his palm, matching every step he took. "I'm fine." Two words were all she needed to say as he came to a stop in the third hall they had been running too. They were inches away from the front door where two guards lay dead, their heads placed besides them as politely as possible.

He turned to face her, his stare pinning her with fury. Not directed at her. "I heard you scream."

She hadn't realised she had been screaming.

"Sorry?" What else was she supposed to say to the male who was saving her. It was stupid, utterly stupid of them to stand there, waiting for death to greet them but a part of her was not afraid.

"The day I saw you. I heard you scream. I had just landed in Eridaya and when I touched the ground, I heard it. And now I heard it again, in the room. You were screaming in pain and I couldn't do anything."

She took a step towards him, and lifted his hand up to her lips. She kissed his fingers slowly. "Take me to Eridaya, Erix." A command for a warrior that needed to focus on something other than her screams.

She was Alpha of the wolves. The future Sire to all the vampires and Heir to the throne of Eridaya.

His answering snarl was all she needed as they stepped out of the castle doors. Nobody greeted them which she blinked at, expecting the Prince to stand there with guards of his own. It didn't seem to matter to Erix as he pulled her, and she followed him down the stairs.

"Where is he?" Katara mumbled to herself as they walked out of the castle gates.

Suddenly screams filled the castle and she whirled around to look at it. "You wanted a distraction, princess? Your princesses gave them one." A part of her was afraid to even find out what Delphine and Willa had done as she saw people running out of the castle. Erix didn't wait for her to question anything as he walked away, letting the castle scream behind him.

Together, hand in hand, feeling as if all of this was surreal, Katara climbed into a boat as Erix pushed it into the water, climbing in with her. She left the world of Wisteria as simple as that but a part of her knew the screams of the Fae were nothing but simple.

She prayed to the Gods above Delphine and Willa escaped.

"Erix, I'm really grateful that-" She didn't get a chance to finish her words as he snaked his large hand up her neck, through her hair and tilted her head towards his before claiming her lips.

Katara barely let the shock of her body register in her mind as she moved closer to him, pushing herself up onto her feet as she opened her mouth for his tongue. The kiss set her body on fire, not literal fire since a part of her had buried the flames deep in the black hole in her mind. She felt the wind breezing through her hair, knowing whatever magic he possessed was making the boat move faster.

His mouth was magic itself, making her moan into the kiss as both of his hands were placed on her thighs, pulling her over him. Gods-damn, she was going to erupt. Katara pulled away from his lips but Erix didn't stop ravishing her body. He pulled her down onto his lap.

She heard the gown rip as she climbed on his lap, her leg on either side of him. "This.." her words were overpowered by a moan escaping her as he sucked on her skin. She tilted her neck for him, allowing him to do whatever he wanted in the middle of the ocean.

She felt his hand snake around her neck, his fingers tightening as he pulled away. Katara had her hands around his shoulders. "I'm not going to stop." It wasn't a question, just an offer if she wanted it to drop right now, he would jump into the water. And if she didn't, he would lick every inch of her skin making her body purr to life.

"Katara.." a low growl followed her name, as he waited, pressing his thumb on her chin. She opened her mouth, leaning slightly down and closing her lips on his thumb.

His eyes darkened as she sucked his thumb ever so slowly and sensually.

She had never fucked a male in a small boat and knowing that he would barely fit if she so much as laid him down to climb on top of him, she knew what she needed too.

He seemed to have the same idea as her. Erix's hands stretched out on her thighs and within seconds he ripped the dress apart, revealing her waist and her chest to him. Like a starved male, Erix kissed her breasts. Her body arched into him, her head tilting back, with his hand still around her neck as he sucked her nipple.

His tongue was pure magic. It swirled against her nipple, his teeth tugging on it slightly, causing her to moan as her hips moved slightly. She felt his hard cock pressed against the black pants he had worn.

Forcing one of her hands to move away from the curls of his hair, she pressed it against his cock. Erix stiffened against her touch, his mouth stopping just on her other breast. "If you're going to give me pleasure, I expect to return it." Her voice was raspy and not as seducing as she hoped it would be but her hand moved up his thick length. She would need to spread wide for him to fit her. He barely moved, other than sucking in a breath as she dragged her hand down his pants and then back up again.

"Don't stop." She pressed her chest into his face, those golden eyes looking up at her. "I'm naked on a boat in the middle of the ocean with a war in two kingdoms. The least you can do is fuck me."

He snarled, the sound of an ancient beast before he cupped her breast with his right hand, while pushing two fingers into her mouth. She gave him what he wanted. Katara licked his fingers, as her hand moved up to the tip of his cock harder, as she pulled her mouth up and down his fingers as if it was his big cock.

Erix jerked his hips up, the only move to show he was being affected by her tongue as he tilted her body further back, forcing her to take a third finger into her mouth. Katara opened her mouth wider, sucking his fingers while he sucked her breasts.

Pleasure twisted in her body, as she inched up on his lap, moving her left leg in between his, allowing him to press his knee into her core. Erix pulled out his fingers from her mouth, removed his own lips from her breasts, and moved back. She would kill him if he stopped.

Katara looked at the smirking male. "You have no idea how beautiful you look right now."

She knew her red painted lips would be smudged from kissing him. She knew her hair was a mess from his hands and that she was utterly naked with the dress lying in piles of cloth under his feet. And she didn't care. "Don't stop." Her words were a command as she moved closer, cupping his face to kiss him.

Erix chuckled, feeling her move her hips against his thigh. She loved the friction it caused her. The flames stirred inside of her but she didn't want to burn the boat she was on. He halted her, pressing his palm on her pussy. She lifted her hips ever so slightly and he pressed his finger into her folds. She moaned.

"I want your filthy mouth filled with my cock."

Simple words that would have made her come right there on his hand if he had moved even slightly. Erix pulled his hand away from her, resting back on the edge of the boat and waiting for her. Fine.

Katara moved off his thigh and kneeled on the wooden planks, her knees protesting at the uncomfort but she reached up to his pants, never removing her eyes from his.

She glanced at the scar that she wanted to kiss so badly. "Eyes on my cock, princess."

Katara pulled the zipper down, letting his cock escape the tight pants. He was hard, taut as if one lick from her would have him shooting in her mouth. She didn't care. She raised up on her knees a little before opening her mouth and ever so slowly, teasingly, she placed her lips on his cock.

Erix was big. Bigger than the wolves she slept with or the vampires. Sex with a wolf was passionate and loving, something that rarely made her cum unless she used her own fingers roughly. Sex with vampires was cold and distant, a simple fuck from behind while they found their release and then left, but a Fae.

She looked up at Erix, as she opened her mouth wider, deepthroating him as much as she could. A hand fisted in her hair, fingers digging into her scalp and she loved the pain as she raised her head before bobbing it down again onto him. He let out a moan, as she scraped her teeth slightly against him before swirling her tongue on the tip. Her left hand came up, pulling out his balls and massaging them in her palm. Erix jerked into her mouth, again and again.

He fucked her mouth roughly, with his hand fisted in hair, his hips rising and pounding into her mouth. Katara pushed a finger into her folds, fucking her own hand as he fucked her mouth. "Fuck."

Without a second thought, Erix lifted her by the hair, pulled her up and claimed her lips. She felt his hands on her ass, parting her cheeks as she climbed over his lap. The kiss was rough, fast, and as passionate as he could be without saying the words of a lover. He aligned his cock against her entrance as she pulled away from his mouth. "I-" could she take it in this position when everything was much deeper?

Erix was panting, his brows furrowed in pleasurable pain. A small smile tugged on her lips. His golden eyes staring at her, a snarl escaped his lips. She knew the intent behind it. She was his.

Katara slowly lowered her body on his cock, breathing ever so slowly. Erix pulled her body closer, grabbing her neck and tilting her head down as he claimed her lips again. She lowered her body down on him, her lips parting as his tongue evaded her mouth. Katara shuddered, at the feeling of him so deeply buried inside of her. He didn't move, giving the chance for her body to adjust and she didn't care. She wanted him to move.

Katara moved her lips from his, kissing his neck as he buried his face in hers. She lifted her hips slowly before lowering down again, a shuddering breath escaping her once again. No words were said as he dug his hands in her waist, clenching the extra fat she had like he needed to hold onto something. "You're not going to hurt me." Her voice was a breathless whisper in his ear.

It seemed to be the only thing that needed to be said. Erix placed his hands on her thighs, lifting her up slowly before he slammed his hips against hers. Katara moaned loudly but he didn't stop. With his lips on her neck, he fucked her as hard as he could, making her moan so loud she was afraid Eridaya would be able to hear her.

"Ahh." Her legs spammed against his body, her hips meeting his in mid way as she allowed him to fuck her. Her mouth was parted, her head tilted backwards, her hands gripping the ends of his hair. She was so close, the heat rising inside of her. His fingers dug in her hips, lifting her up again and slamming his cock into her.

She moaned, her release pouring out of her as his thrusts got faster and faster. Erix's teeth scraped her neck and a part of her wanted to tell him to stop, but the bigger part didn't say a word other than moan as he bit her.

The pain of his bite was nonexistent as he came inside of her. Unspeakable pleasure coursed through her veins as he sucked her neck, as his thrusts got too quick. She pressed her head on his shoulder, her arms wrapped around him in an embrace as she came off her high.

Erix lifted his head, placing a soft kiss on her shoulder before tilting his head backwards as if he could throw himself into the water to cool down. She felt him harden inside of her slowly. Like he wanted more.

She definitely wanted more.

"You bit me."

He did not answer her, not as she leaned up slowly, her hips rising a little with his cock still inside of her. He hissed. She tried to hold back the smirk that threatened to appear on her lips, as she pressed a kiss on his jaw. "I don't mind. A bite from someone who's not your mate disappears within a few days. It will go. No one will know."

Nobody in Eridaya would care if they saw a mark on her shoulders.

His thrusts were his answer as he lifted his head and looked at her. "Who told you that?"

"I've been bit once before." She rolled her hips on his cock, making him fist her hair into his hand.

He tilted her head back, baring her neck to him. "You are mine." He snarled.

She didn't care, didn't even answer him back as she saw Eridaya appearing before her. The two castle towers where she had once stayed in.

Katara forced herself to pull her body off his hard cock. The warmth disappeared from her as she stood up. They were in Eridaya and it was not burning. A small smile tugged on her lips.

She was home.
