《Maeve》ChapterTwentyTwo: His Prey
Advertisement
The moon shined through the window. It was truly a beautiful night with stars on the sky and bright moon shining even brighter than the stars. Maeve was sitting on the large bed trying to gather all of her thoughts. What should she do? Sit in there and wait for him as he drank wine next to a big fireplace.
He didn't have his shirt on anymore. Instead of warming his muscles it warmed and decorated the floor.
The dim light in the room didn't let Maeve see all the outlines of his back but it let her see few scars on his skin. It made her want to feel the scars under her fingers. Every scar has a story and she wanted to know where and how did he get those.
He took a big gulp from his wine.
"May I have s-some?" Maeve muttered quietly but knowing that he will hear her.
"You want wine?" His mate nodded. She never stopped surprising him. Last time she wanted wine was on the balcony but he was so wasted that entire night he really didn't remember much. Just some ladies that danced around him in skimpy clothes and exposing their cleavage. But he did remember kissing the human clearly, what her lips felt against his and how she let her hands go through his hair. Maybe he should have drunk less and been soberer but no one can change the past, even though you would like to do it sometimes. Even Dominic had a few things he would change in his past. One of them would be killing all the humans' with his father when he was still alive but he died a long time ago.
Maeve thanked him as he gave her a glass full of red liquid called wine. The light of the fireplace made it sparkle a little. As she took a sip she almost moaned. It tasted really good better than ever before, actually, it was her third time of tasting it. Her mother had whew bottles but they were locked away and if she saw Maeve even looking at them she would start to nag her about how she is still too young to be drinking.
"You like it?" The werewolf asked.
Maeve shook her head, "I love it." She said and gave him the biggest smile she had given in a long time. Her face muscles even started to hurt a little. Maybe he isn't that bad what they say? You just need to get to know him better.
She took another sip of her wine and grinned. Something bitter spread in her mouth. The human noticed that the alpha male was staring right at her as she grinned. Because she didn't want to seem impolite she tried to keep smiling as her mouth was dying.
What is happening to her? Did he poison her? Maeve wanted to cry as she felt her throat burn. Has he finally managed to do the only thing he has wanted since she took a step inside the castle? She started to scratch her throat as if the burn would stop magically.
Dominic looked at the teary eyes of the human. Her eyes wandered around the room trying to find something. When her eyes stopped at the class of water next to him he realized that she clearly wanted some water.

He took the glass of water and gave it to her.
Maeve looked at the water first little cautiously, after all, she didn't know if he poisoned it too but after a few seconds she took the glass and drank like she hadn't seen water in years.
"If I knew that drink would have affected the way it did, I wouldn't have given it to you." He said taking a sip from his drink.
Maeve looked at him as a tear fell on her cheek, " You didn't p-poison it?"
Dominic snorted, "Do you really think I would poison you?" Because the human didn't answer and looked at him with wondering eyes he continued, "I don't poison people, Maeve."
"Oh." She breathed. It was weird hearing him say her name, first of all, she thought he didn't even know her name. He has always called her by 'human' or 'girly' or something else that she didn't like.
Hearing him say her name made her feel very exhausted again. Her nipples hardened and it was clear that he noticed that too. His eyes started to darken again as she closed her legs tighter together.
Maeve tried to calm down that she could go back to her room but the male in front of her looked like he was going to attack her in a few seconds.
"D-Dominic?" She whispered not knowing what to do. Maybe he is getting sick too? When those words left from her lips the little string that had kept the king still snapped in half. Like once earlier in today Maeve looked like a little mouse compared to him. She was his prey and he was her predator.
He forced her back against the mattress as he climbed over her forcing his knee go between her thighs. His hands and legs caging her into the mattress that she couldn't move even if she tried. She felt tears form in her eyes but at the same time, the wetness between her legs increased.
Maeve gulped.
When Dominic smelled her arousal only increasing he smirked and stared right into her eyes. They looked scared and at the same time horny. Something inside of him snapped, maybe they weren't such bad mates, after all, to each other.
Maeve looked terrified when he put his head on the crook of her neck and licked it once. That made Maeve to almost go over the edge and her chest started to raise more often. He noticed her reaction and made a love bite onto her neck smirking at the same time.
He took one look at her filthy cotton dress and tore it apart revealing a skimpy corset. Her hands started to tremble. She had never been so undressed in front of a man, not even her mother had seen her in this less clothed since she was ten years old.
Just take deep breaths, she told herself as he started to open the laces of her corset. Soon he is going to see the one part of her she has always been so insecure about. She wasn't a curvy woman and knew it but she also knew what kind of women usually were around him. She had seen them and heard them talking about it.

She froze as the last parts of the fabric that covered her most private parts were taken away. The human was now only in her birth suit as the male on top of her had everything under the navel covered. His upper body spread warmth into hers.
Before she was even realizing it he cupped her sex and put one of his fingers inside of her making her moan.
She started to mumble something that was foreign to him, but it didn't stop him from making his way between her legs. Maeve tried to close her legs with every single drop of strength she had in her small body, but he didn't let that happen. He pushed her legs even more wide open.
She was so embarrassed with him just being between her legs and not doing anything. As if he was just staring at her which made her feel so uncomfortable but there was nothing she could do. But all those thoughts disappeared when he licked her for the first time.
She started to moan and move uncontrollably trying to get away from him and his mouth on her sex but at the same time, she never wanted it to end. It felt like she had gone to heaven.
Dominic smirked and started to finger her even faster making her squirm in pleasure. He continued doing it for few minutes before pressing and blowing into he clitoris at the same time making her have the first orgasm she has ever gotten. Not even realizing what was happening when her eyes went blurry for a few seconds from the unbelievable pleasure her body was feeling.
After that Maeve felt exhausted. Every limp didn't want to move when she tried to rise from the bed, but either did the beast who was now as naked as her.
He pressed her against the bed one more time before putting his throbbing length into her waiting core. Maeve felt only pain as he pushed inside of her. Tears started to fall from her eyes as he kept pushing inside of her. When his length broke her hymen she cried out loud and tried to push him away from her but she was too weak.
She was no longer a virgin.
The pleasure she felt when he licked her was long gone. Now thinking about it Maeve couldn't understand how she could have felt so much pleasure when now she felt like she was being ripped apart.
"P-please." She cried out in pain. This was literally nothing she had expected, no one ever told that it will hurt this much. Unlike her wishes, he didn't stop. He kept moving his hips back and forth, every time faster than the earlier.
"S-s-stop," She whispered feeling like no voice was coming out of her mouth. He didn't seem to care about her pleads and continued to push his length into her even faster. Maeve even tried to scratch his back to let him know that she was in pain and praying it to stop.
Minutes went by and most of it she spent in a pain. In some rare moments, she felt pleasure run through her spine. It wasn't as bad as it was in the beginning but she still wanted it to stop. This was the first and the last time she will ever let someone be inside of her. It felt like her body wasn't designed to pleasure the other sex. The King will go back to the other women like before this night.
The thought about him sleeping with other women made her hurt even more. First, she didn't want to admit it, because he is a heartless monster who will never love anyone, but she couldn't deny it anymore. She had a crush on him and tonight won't change it. Soon he released his semen inside of her and got up from the bed.
He looked at her for a while before dressing up and leaving the room.
Maeve looked at the door he closed behind. Why did he leave? Was it that bad for him too? She wanted to cry but no tears would form in her eyes. He left her in a pool of her blood and his semen.
He really didn't care about her. Is she only another whore for him? She had feelings and a beating heart that cried after him. Her heart wanted and craved for him, but for him, it was almost better is she was lying in some dusty corner with her dead best friend.
Maeve couldn't do anything but to stare at the ceiling. Nothing mattered anymore, he finally broke her. No chase or execution did the trick so he broke her spirit. She truly wished that after tonight they would have at least been friends.
The stories were true he never wanted a mate. Nothing could warm his heart anymore. It was made of a stone with an ice layer.
A little squeak broke her thoughts. Could it be? She hoped and turned to look at the corner she heard the voice.
"Oh, Tommy!" She screamed and ran to him. The soreness between her legs made her walk a little strange but she really needed to hug him. She crushed him against her cheek and kissed his little head.
"I missed-d you", She said as she put on a robe she found on the bench.
Tommy looked like he had when they last saw each other. Nothing has happened to him and that thought only made her heart warm a little.
"You have no idea what has happened to m-me," She whispered. So much has happened since the last time she saw him, but now things were a little better. She had him as a company. Who even needs a cold-hearted king in their life?
"What the fuck is that?" Someone snarled at the door.
Maeve quailed and turned to look at the person who was at the door. Her heart throbbed as she saw her mate standing at the door with a shiny dress on his hands and food in a tray.

Adagio of the Enlightened
The Elders will tell you the stories and lore. Of our ancestors, their deeds, and of the foes of yore. They will praise to you the chariot, and how it flew to the stars. How it stole the sun's light and slew the night’s roar.The Shamans will tell you the tales of their wisdom. Their wars on schism, and the unlettered world of ours before. Perhaps they will sing you the songs of what our clans' ancient customs tore. Poems of how our ancestors took what the discs had offered them, the manna and the mundane, and made it more.The kings will tell you of the follies, the sins, and the anecdotes of all our ancestors' wrongs. They will curse to you their names, the Ender of Fate and the Ruined Song. How they had dug up the hearts of the discs, euchred its relics, and blasphemed its prophecies, with oracles withdrawn.But they will only tell you the legends, recount the myths, and sing the allegories washed ashore.The Elders, the Shamans, and the kings can only retell what the storytellers of their own time had voiced. What they have read in books or heard in the minstrels' songs they adore.They don't know what really happened. They were never there.They can't tell you how our ancestors slew the angels from the sky, and sent them back to where they belonged. How they poisoned our minds, and made our people slothful and feeble, with the reforms they had undergone.But I can.I can tell you how the Ender of Fate severed destiny's strings, weakened them, and weaved them to our feeble flesh and souls.I can tell you how the Ruined song razed the heavens with her blood-stained melody, and reshaped our hell into utopia, with the deaths she deplored.Because I was there. I can tell you the truth, with my virtue strong. ----> Disclaimer: This will be a slow-burn, character-driven, non-harem, slice-of-life web novel with cultivation and kingdom-building elements.
