Burning desire
‘Shit, so he'd followed us here;’ she didn't expect him to do that. This was one of the things Ava
hated about being a werewolf; scents. You can never avoid your mate except he or she chooses to
leave you alone bla bla bla.... she rolled her eyes as she recalled one of the most important rules of the
mate bond. She knew from the onset that he might just follow her; he wouldn't have a hard time doing
that since he could track her scent easily even if she ran to the ends of the world but she still ran
anyways, hoping that he would give up on chasing her at some point and just leave her alone. She
would admit that she felt a bit flattered that he went through such lengths to find her, and upon seeing
that he was persistent having followed her all the way here, he at least deserved an introduction.
She stood from the ground and walked up to him, not fully aware that she was back in her human
form and was standing completely naked in front of him. She could tell that his wolf had brought him
here as well, as he was also naked and in his human form; they both were. Of course, that was the
only way he could have caught up with her; a human's running legs would never catch up to a wolf's.
As she came close to him, she expected him to be angry at her for running away, she expected
him to question what she did at the restaurant, but instead, all she saw in his eyes were burning desire,
desire to be with her, the same desire that made her yearn for him too.
"I'm Ava," she introduced herself curtly, trying to ignore the possessive aura that was washed
across his features as his gazed lingered on her for long, not taking his eyes off her for a second, not
saying anything but watching her skin glow ever so brightly beneath the moonlight, watching the cool
night breeze that swept her blonde hair ever so swiftly, outlining the shape of her face, she was perfect
for him. And he was perfect for her too, with his perfectly carved male body, his rich black hair and his
perfectly sculpted face which held his gazing blue eyes that he had refused to take off her up till now,
his chiseled chest where tiny hairs sprung and where his rock hard abs were neatly arranged in three
rows of two's, her eyes went down below to his waist level and she took in the sight of his manhood,
big and hard for her, she blushed as she quickly looked away from there, forcing her attention on the
big snake tattoo boldly sketched on his arm even though she couldn't get her mind off that cock. He
truly was perfect, and the moon goddess had given him to her; but she couldn't have him even if she
wanted to.
'His name is Lucas,' Layla, who'd been communicating with his wolf told her.
"Lucas?" Ava asked him out loud to confirm what Layla had said, but he didn't respond, whether
he was caught up in the whole mate bond impact or he was angry at the fact that she ran away from
him, she couldn’t tell.
"Mine," he finally growled beneath his teeth after a long period of silence stretched, ambling closer
to her and ignoring her words; she knew he wanted to get straight to the point, to the real reason he'd
followed her here; he'd come to claim his mate.
**********
You don't belong to him Ava, time to contradict his claim, time to reject him now; rejecting him is
the right thing to do, it was one of the most important things you've been taught to do as the future
Luna of the pack; you have to reject your true mate in order to assume your duties; that was the wise
part of her speaking in her mind, but unfortunately, the foolish one in her had the louder voice tonight.
And the foolish one in her told her to ignore the wise one. Don't listen to her, the voice radiated so
loudly she could almost hear it.
Ava had always thought that when her mate came along that she would just jump right into the
rejection stage and get it over with, Luna Mitchell made it sound so easy, but now she realized it wasn't
as easy as she thought it to be. She had two good reasons for this, number one reason was that she Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
was now standing less than three feet apart from him, stark naked and still taking in the sight of each
him, she could literally feel his breath on her face as he exhaled. The second reason was that this mate
bond seemed to have cleared away every sense of reasoning in her; making the foolish Ava overpower
the wiser Ava, who would've started running again the minute she saw him here. She did recall that
Luna Mitchell had always warned that there could be situations where she would have to stay as far
away as she could from her mate especially the first time they imprint on each other, saying that the
mate bond was always at its strongest peak then and she might find it hard to reject him then. Well, as
you can see, she'd tried. So, you can also see and understand why it wasn't her fault when she did the
next thing she did.
As she stared at those mesmerizing blue eyes, all she wanted was the man standing in front of
her, she didn't know who he was, she'd never seen him in her life before, the only thing she knew was
that she wanted him......, NO! no!!!...... the mate bond made her want him, and like she reasoned
before, it wasn't her fault because at this point, the mate bond only increased the volume of the foolish
Ava's voice to the maximum while it smoldered wise Ava's voice away until she could barely hear her.
Her whole naked body ached for him... NO!!.... the mate bond made her whole naked body ache for
him. Oh goodness, where is Layla? Since wise Ava or Nicole weren't around to help her anymore,
Layla ought to be the next person here talking some sense into her, Ava tried to reach her, but she
seems to be so engaged with his wolf she ignored her. So, you can see again that she tried everything,
and there was nothing else she could do to stop what was coming next. This bond had her whole body
in control, the way one controls a puppet with strings, trapping her up in its web and leaving her no
choice but to dangle beneath its influence, taking over her entire body; so, you can see the next thing
that happened wasn't her doing it, it was that damned mate bond.
