The Love of a Lycan

It was dark, for that reason nothing could be seen, Raine didn't know where she was.

But, she knew he was there. He was so close to her, that she could feel his warm breath was tracing down to her jaw and to the bottom of her collarbones, sending warmth to her lower abdomen in the process. And the next second his breath had brushed her breast, she gasped as a moan escaped her lips and he growled as a response.

Raine closed her eyes again and focused on her other senses. She felt his calloused hand on his waist and she was pulled to him.

Suddenly, her hair was entangled among his slender fingers as he turned her head in a way that revealed her neck to him. His nose nuzzled the curve between her neck and shoulder, nibbling there.

Raine's breath hitched with torturous delight. She felt being pushed to lie on the floor as his rough hands grabbed and held off her breasts then his lips wildly kissed her neck.

He was hovering above her, he was so rough with her. The next moment, she felt his lips crashing against hers, the kiss very intense and possessive. His tongue entered her mouth and sucked her sweetness.

Part of her was scared, he was so dangerous. But, deep down she knew his embrace was the safest place for her.

A few moments later she became breathless and when he parted their lips, he mumbled into her ears. "Mine."

As if the darkness sucked her into a deep hole, she was in shock and her mind reeled as she gasped loudly for air. She felt her body become stiff and numb, she sucked in a breath of cold air the moment she regained her consciousness.

It was just a dream, but somehow felt so real.

When someone's hand touched her cheeks, out of instinct, Raine tried to pry herself away from his clutches, but he was too strong for her.

Fear gripped her heart when she felt his breath on her neck. And his hand that was wrapped around her body held her tightly, but then she heard his voice.

"My love, it's me." Torak kept repeating this word to her ear with a sense of helplessness. "You are safe. It's me, I am here."

Raine didn't realize that the man was holding her, until she heard his voice and as he switched on the bed lamp, his face came into light, she stopped her attempt to hit him.

It was Torak beside her.

Everything was fine.

It was only a dream.

"It's just a nightmare." Torak was chanting that word again and again until Raine calmed.

Her wide eyes scanned her surroundings, she wasn't in the dark place where she couldn't see anything. She was in her and Torak's bedroom and the powerful Lycan was looking at her with worry vividly reflected in his eyes.

Raine was hugging his waist tightly while burying her face on his chest.

Torak said it was a nightmare, but it somehow felt so real for her.

============== 

The kisses.

The breath.

The pleasure.

And the touch.

Raine was brought back to reality when someone touched her shoulder, she startled and looked at the man beside her in alarm.

"What are you thinking, my love?" Torak caressed her pale cheeks with his thumb. "You look distracted, still thinking about last night's dream? Do you want to tell me?"

Raine bit her inner cheeks, there was no way she could tell him about her dream. She averted her eyes at the rows of pine trees outside the car window

Today Torak brought her to the city again because he had a meeting to attend.

Instead of answering his question, Raine asked him another question to distract her mind that kept bringing her back to think about that dream.

[Who are we going to meet?] She typed on her iPad and showed it to Torak.

"Reynold Magnus." Torak made his answer short

Frowning, Raine typed another question. [What is he?] Probably, it was the right question to ask.

Torak pulled her closer into his warm embrace as he replied. "He's a Dragon Lord."
