Mated To An Enemy



Only an hour ago, Fiona had been woken by Landon’s early morning cravings. They had barely had a chance to enjoy themselves before he was called to check on an issue in one of the mines. Fiona was lying in bed waiting for his return when Ashleigh’s call came.

Landon moved his hands down her thighs, pushing them together to squeeze around him. He moved his hips with a thick moan in her ear.

Fiona leaned her head back against his shoulder, letting out soft pants as he stirred the embers of her desire.

Landon moved one hand over her thigh, slipping two fingers into her folds. Fiona gasped and arched her back as Landon grinned when he felt how wet she had already become.

He pushed further in and spread his fingers, pushing her folds apart as he rolled his hips so the head of his shaft slipped between.

Fiona moaned as now his erection brushed directly against her clit. Landon raised his hand to his open mouth, sucking her juices from his fingers with a moan.

“You don’t taste bored…” he whispered against her ear.

“You’re being childish again…” she whispered.

Landon grinned and kissed her throat.

“Am I a pup in need of punishment?” he asked, increasing his thrust to tease her even more.

“Punishment? No,” Fiona said between soft pants, now rolling her hips to match his pace. “More like training.”

Landon reached down, he pressed against her clit with his fingers as she moved against him, and he continued to thrust.

Fiona cried out as she drew short breaths. But she didn’t stop moving. She moaned and pushed her head back against his shoulder as he brought her to the edge of her desire until she cried out again in her release.

Landon held her around the waist to keep her from falling as the strength suddenly left her. She let out soft whimpers as he continued to gently stroke her.

“If you do not like it,” he whispered against her ear, “I am willing to be trained.”

Landon returned to kissing her throat.

Fiona’s hand moved with a quickness that surprised him. She caught him by the jaw and turned until their eyes met.

“Should an Alpha be so willing to submit to a lesser wolf?” she asked with a heated gaze.

Landon let out a low rumble from his chest.

“A lesser wolf?” he growled.

Pulling himself back, he let her go and pushed her onto the bed.

Fiona gasped as her back hit the mattress, but he was already on top of her before she could react. Landon spread her legs and moved between them. He hovered over her with a dark look in his eyes.

“You are not a lesser wolf, Fiona,” he growled.

Landon leaned forward, nuzzling against her as he reached his hand down between them and guided the head of his cock to rub against her clit once again.

Fiona took a sharp breath as she arched her back and bit down on her bottom lip.

“You alone are my weakness, Fiona,” he whispered. “A weakness in which I have found more than enough strength to fight off any who would challenge my position as Alpha.”

Fiona let out a heavy pant as Landon continued to tease her. She looked up into his eyes. They stared back at her with lust and hunger. But beyond the surface, there was something more, something more profound.

“There is nothing ‘lesser’ about you, Fiona.”

In her heart, Fiona knew that she would always long for Cain. But Landon’s pursuit of her had been an unexpected but not entirely unwelcome surprise.

For two years, she had rejected him. But he never gave up, and he never crossed any line she put down. He was passionate but respectful, powerful yet gentle.

Since she had opened herself to him, she had found nothing but joy and pleasure in her world. He was a good man, a great leader, and as hard as she had tried not to, she loved him.

Fiona moved her arm around his neck and pulled his mouth to hers. She kissed him fiercely as her other hand reached down and took hold of him. Landon gasped against her mouth as Fiona guided his thick shaft to dip into her entrance while she wrapped her legs around his waist.

They both panted with anticipation, their heated breath mingling together before Landon crushed his lips to hers and plunged deep inside her.

Whether the match would last or not, Fiona couldn’t know. Landon had not found his mate yet, and it was possible that when he did, he would leave Fiona behind. But whatever time they had left together, they would enjoy every moment.

Ashleigh let out a heavy sigh as the picture showed that it had been delivered. She swallowed and quickly shut off the phone. It wasn’t fair of her to do so. She knew Fiona would call back. She would want to talk to him, to question everything.

She promised to bring him home in three days. Caleb would return to the world in three days, whatever that might mean for them.

But, until then, she would embrace her own selfishness for as long as she could.

Ashleigh took a deep breath and walked back into the room with a plan to curl up in her husband’s arms and enjoy his warmth as she fell back asleep.

But she stopped only two steps out of the bathroom as she was caught in his silver gaze. Ashleigh froze.

“Caleb…” she whispered.

He let out a gentle sigh.

“I tried to keep pretending I was asleep,” he said, giving her a small smile, “but I think there’s just too much hanging in the air between us to let it go.”

Ashleigh swallowed.

“Now that we’ve only got three days,” he said. “I think it’s time, Ash.”

“Time for what?” she asked quietly, a panic rising in her chest.

Caleb stood up from the bed, walking directly to her. He pulled her into his arms and held her close. Ashleigh couldn’t resist relaxing against him. His warmth, his presence, it was soothing. He leaned down and kissed her head tenderly as she rested against his chest.

“Time that you tell me what it is you’re hiding,” he whispered against her hair.
