Beast

I was as old as time. For centuries I had protected and guarded the forests. For centuries, it had been enough for me to watch over the humans and animals. To maintain the delicate balance of the woods. Never before had I been overwhelmed by the level of want I was currently feeling.

This girl, small and sweet, was my undoing. And with her admission, there was nothing on the earth that would prevent me from keeping her. My fangs ached to sink into her and to mark her as mine. To claim her as my mate and tie our life forces together. But I had to be patient. As much as she insisted she wasn’t an innocent, she shook lying beneath me. The last thing I wanted was to scare her.

“I won’t hurt you,” I assured her again, running my tongue down her neck and into the valley between her small breasts.

“I know,” she panted the words, her voice wavering. When I moved to lap at one pink nipple, her hands dug into the fur of my head. I was shocked, but pleased as she used her grip to hold me in place when I would have moved my attention elsewhere.

“Like that, do you?” I breathed over the tight bud before lapping at it. Chill bumps erupted over all of her skin but she moaned and arched up into me. It was all I needed.

I moved to her other breast, giving it the same attention. The taste of her flesh was addicting. It was everything I’d been missing in my life and I would never get enough. When she released my head to dig her hands into the furs at her hips, I moved lower, seeking the heat between her legs.

It had been centuries since I’d mated with anyone. There had been a visiting goddess to my woods that had been more than happy to satisfy my needs whenever she passed nearby, but I had never mated with a mortal before. A part of me shook with fear of hurting her.

“Please,” she begged, spreading her legs as I licked over the dip in the soft flesh of her belly. “I need more, please.”

I followed the salty-sweet scent of her to the apex of her legs, to the dark curls that shielded soft folds of flesh that glistened like petals in morning dew. My mouth watered at the smell of her. I shoved her legs wider and settled myself between her legs.

The first taste of her was heaven. Flavor burst on my tongue as she squirmed under me. My brain buzzed as I buried my muzzle between her legs and my tongue deep into her hole. She was the sweetest thing I’d ever tasted.

“Oh, my, gods!” She squirmed, legs flexing on either side of my head. I gripped her legs, pinning them in place as I feasted on her. My tongue moved inside of her and she shouted, partially sitting up to wrap her arms around my head but I wouldn’t, couldn’t, be stopped. I would never get my fill of the taste of her.

Her muscles clenched and fluttered around my tongue and more of her liquid pooled in my mouth. She lay back, panting. Every muscle in her body went lax as I slowed and pulled my tongue out of her.

I climbed back up her body to wrap around her as she lay shaking on the pelts. She fought to catch her breath and I waited. It was painful, my cock was hard and desperate to be inside of her but I needed to know she understood.

“Are you with me, my love?” I nuzzled my wet muzzle into her neck and gently lapped at her skin. “Are you ready for me?”

“You appear to have turned my limbs into mush.” She murmured the words into my neck, one arm looping around me to hold me close to her. “I’m afraid I’m not going to make it.”

But she moved against me. She arched her body up and rubbed her wet petals against my hard, aching cock. I growled into her skin. It was taking every shred of sanity to hold still and not drive into her.

“I need to know you understand what this means, my love . If I take you, I’m going to mark you. You’re going to be mine and there will be no going back. You won’t be able to change your mind. You’ll belong to me. Just as surely as I belong to you.”

She released the hold on my neck and used both hands to push me up. I stared down at her in regret, ready to remove myself and leave. But her hands came up to grip at my fur instead.

“There was never any going back for me. Not from the moment you cut my bonds. I’ve been yours all along. You’ve just been too dense to see it.” She arched against me again, sending fire through my system. “Now take me. Make me yours.”

I lined myself up to her hole and slid into her on a growl. She mewled and clutched my fur, tensing up at my invasion. I froze, unwilling to hurt her.

“I’m so sorry, my love.” I started to pull out but she locked her legs around my sides with a shake of her head.

“No, don’t stop.” She shifted, squeezing me tighter within her channel. “Give me a moment. Just a moment.”

“You can have an eternity,” I promised her, pressing my muzzle against her cheek to soak in her warmth. I held as still as possible as she adjusted to my invasion but eventually it was too much for me. I had to move or I was going to lose my mind.

I started slow. With shallow thrusts that barely moved me inside of her. With each one, her breathing increased and the hold she had on my fur tightened. When I was sure she could handle more, I began to move.

Gently, at first. I pulled nearly out of her before slowly sliding deep again. But as her pants and moans grew, so did my speed. Despite my best intentions, I couldn’t help myself. I needed to feel her come around me. I needed to empty myself into her.

“Please,” she panted, clutching me tight. “More.”

I let myself go. My claws dug into the pelts below us as I began moving in earnest. My movements were jerky and wild as I pounded into her. I tried so hard to keep a shred of control but it was next to impossible with her cunt squeezing around me.

And as she clenched around my cock and I swelled inside of her, I bound her to me. My teeth bit into her shoulder and I marked her as mine. There would be no return for either of us now.

She was mine and I would never be letting her go.
