Adrianna took a deep breath. "There is certainly a lot of resentment amongst the Council members." On the inside, she wanted Niiya to be removed from the position of the Council Head, but she wondered how he would take it. Another way was what Dmitri suggested—to convince the members to create more positions and then offer one to Niiya. For all this she had to work hard on first getting her husband in the forefront as the best candidate for the position of the Head.

"Yes, there is a lot of bitterness regarding Niiya's absence, and I feel this is the right time to suggest changes," Dmitri said. "Trust me, the changes are going to be good for everyone."

​​

"I hope so!" she replied. After a short pause, she said, "Let's go back, Dmitri. There are way too many tasks that have to be looked into."

Dmitri put the bone in a plate made out of leaves and while licking his fingers, went to his wife. She had Ileus in her lap who was sleeping peacefully. He smelled the child's neck, which had the typical smell of mother's milk. Lying next to her he caressed her back and said, "I don't want to go. Let us spend the day here. We are the rulers of our kingdom and we can take a holiday any day we feel like."

Dmitri sounded so childish that Adrianna chuckled. "Don't tell me I have to handle two babies."

He smiled blissfully and said, "I love you."

Adrianna lowered her lips on his and said, "I love you, too."

Dmitri took Ileus from her lap and placed him on his cradle. He held her in his lap and kissed her roughly. She knew that those were one of his tricks to seduce her into doing what he wanted at that time. He was about to lick her mark when she removed herself from him and said, "Dmitri, we need to go back, okay?" Saying that she got out of his lap and ran outside as if teasing him.

The white water cascading through a series of rocky outcrops split into many waterfalls. Adrianna had reached one such waterfall when Dmitri caught her from behind. They were thoroughly drenched in the warm water. Adrianna's nipples were puckered in her shirt and poked out when he caught her from her waist and pressed his hands there. Adrianna gasped. She wasn't wearing pants. Dmitri wedged his leg between hers and parted them. He lowered his hand down to her lips and then something really hard pushed in her hips. Adrianna's body was flushed with heat as all the muscles became taut. She held his hand and buckled. Dmitri's other hand removed her shirt. He spread his palm on her stomach and stroked it. She inched closer to him, grinding up against his hardness hoping that he would touch her puckered breasts.

"My greedy little wife," he purred in her ears. He took his hands to her breasts and squeezed them. "Do you want more?" he asked seductively.

"Yes," she almost begged as an ache built between her thighs.

His tongue went to the mark and he grazed around it. Adrianna tilted her head for him to have complete access to it. She had run away from him so that he wouldn't lick her mark and now she was the one holding her head in a position that he licked her again over there. Give me more.

Knowing how much she craved for him when he fondled and glossed with her mark, Dmitri teased her. Instead he nibbled at her earlobes.

Adrianna yelped and fully arched against him. The water that fell over them only added as a catalyst. She growled. Dmitri stroked the lips between her thighs lazily and when she was fully aroused, he left them. His hand traveled up to her breasts and circled her swollen nipples. Suddenly he pinched them and a groan escaped, "Ah!" She ground against his erection making him growl in turn. "Adri, not so fast," he said with a chuckle. "Do you want to go back?" he asked.

"You know I have to," she replied as her body writhed in the pain of wanting him. She wanted to turn and push herself over him, but he clucked his tongue and pushed himself very hard against her. He caught her so tightly that she couldn't turn. "Please Dmitri," she winced as if begging him for mercy and hoping that he would understand her predicament.

Dmitri took his fingers to the other nipple and at the same time glided his thumb down to her clit. He pinched them together. Adrianna gave a throaty groan and came. She was putty in his hands. He continued to circle her nipple and flick her. She cried and moaned with pleasure and pain.

"You like that, don't you my little cat?"

She kept moaning and begging for him to continue. Slowly, his fingers slid inside and every cell of her body focused on what he was doing inside her. "Adri," he hissed like a beast when she moaned loudly. He plunged his fingers deep inside. Her body moved against his. Once he was satisfied with his heart's content, he removed his fingers, made her grip the rock on the side and pushed his hard inside her from behind. He thrust inside and slid out slow, and stopped. "Would you stay back for the day?" he bargained.

She showed her displeasure through a guttural roar. "Dmitri!"

He thrust himself again dragging a moan from her. He stayed inside and then rotated his hips slightly. It was mind-blowing. "You didn't answer," he said.

"You know I have to go," she said. She was so irritated by him for wanting him so badly that she made a tough decision—she would make him beg like that one day.

He came out of her and then slowly pushed it back in. "We'll see," he said as he increased his pace. Adrianna cried out of pleasure. Since there was no one to hear their sounds, she moaned and groaned her loudly, which in turn aroused Dmitri to the extent that he matched her. Soon he came inside her and slumped over her leaning body.

The gentle water fell on their backs until they stopped panting.

Dmitri came out of her. She was so limp that he picked her up and carried her to a small hillock nearby that was covered with tall grass. He placed her over there and lied down beside her. He propped up his face on his hand and looked at her. She seemed very exhausted and had closed her eyes. "I expected my Luna to be fitter than that," he bantered. After plucking a grass blade he traced it on her stomach and thighs. He reached her bud and tickled it. "Come on Adri, you are the Luna of the Supreme Alpha. Allow me to pleasure you more."

She laughed lazily, "I think it was you who was pleasured more than me."

Dmitri jumped up and went to her swollen bud. Flicking it with his tongue, he said, "In that case how about you pleasing me again?"

Adrianna bucked feeling his lips on her. He had become a master at arousing her. Her back arched more as he sucked on. He was in no mood of leaving her or going back. He continued to flick it, suck it and nibble it until she came again.
