Forbidden Mate: Awakening

Audrey was led into the room by some vampires who rough handled her. She swore under her breath she’d kill every single of them once she had dominion in the clan.

Leo’s voice beckoned her to kneel before him. The room was relatively dark but she could trace out his red eyes and gaunt composure sitting on the chair beside the bed.

She obliged reluctantly, the chains around her throat, ankles and wrists scarring her skin even more. She seethed between her teeth but kept silent.

Leo’s curious laugh filled the room, “Are you going to keep pretending that you can’t break away from those things? We can’t come to a final deal if you’re tied up like that.”

Audrey wandered as to how Leo was gradually getting into her head. She had to maintain her composure and not let the pain from the chains break her resolve. He shouldn’t creep in.

She cried out with a faltering voice, “Why would I fake my bleakness when I know you can kill me at any given moment? Even if I break free from these chains, you’d still have me bound within your walls.”

She could see his lips form into a smirk, “You are quite smart for your kind…Since you already know my name, and we want to enter into an agreement, it’s only fair I know yours.”

“Audrey.” She said plainly. There was no need to fake her identity – he’d catch up with her lie sooner than later and kill her.

“Audrey…sounds too innocent, too pure…but highly corruptible.”

Leo, his dark eyes gleaming with an insidious glint, approached Audrey with an outstretched hand.

She fixed her gaze on him.

“When I offer you a hand, Audrey, you take it.”

She hesitated for a moment, contemplating whether she was making the right decision but the allure of more power and the opportunity to fulfill her own nefarious desires proved too tempting to resist. She smiled wickedly back at him and allowed him to rise her up slowly.

In a second, he slid his hands around her waist, making her stiffen a little, and held the lock which connected all the chains in her body together. He crushed it between his fingers like dust and the chains around her neck, ankles and wrists fell down. Audrey breathed out.

“So, Audrey,” Leo began, his voice dripping with seduction and interest, “I have thought about your proposition and I do believe we can be of great use to each other.”

Audrey narrowed her eyes, a cunning smile curling at the corners of her lips. She had always been drawn to power, yearning for strength beyond her own limits. And now, with Leo agreeing to her offer, she knew her chance to grasp that power and ascend to new heights was only a few steps away.

“I’m glad you’ve finally realized this.” Audrey replied with a dangerous undercurrent. “But I also want to know what I stand to gain from this alliance.”

Leo looked at her surprisingly, “You came with a proposition and expect me to tell you what it’s in it for you from me? Aren’t you funny?”

She kept her hand on her hips, “Yes, I know I was the one who came with the offer and I know why I came to you but for documentation sake, I just need to hear it from you, from your mouth.” She said and licked the bottom of her lip.

Leo chuckled darkly, his gaze never wavering from her. “Power, my dear,” he whispered, “You came to me because you know I can grant you abilities beyond your wildest imagination. With my guidance, you can become unstoppable. This is why you’re here”

He was right. She knew all about Leo, more than he could even imagine someone else could know about him, a rather mysterious figure. Audrey’s heart raced in excitement. The thought of harnessing such formidable power coursed through her veins, intoxicating her senses. She had always felt a hunger deep within her, an insatiable thirst for supremacy, and Leo seemed to hold the key to unlocking her true potential. This was exactly why she came to him.

“I’ve always known I was destined for greatness,” Audrey admitted, “If you can truly give me the power I seek, then our alliance is already forged.”

Leo’s smirk widened, his eyes glinting with satisfaction. “Yes, it is,” he responded. “From this moment forth, we shall be partners in darkness, and rest assured, Audrey, your powers will grow beyond your wildest dreams and so will my influence.”

“I do hope the terms of this our alliance are… not too informal, Leo?” She said with a seductive tone, knowing exactly what she was getting at and remaining calculated.

Leo closed the distance between them and rubbed the bruise from the chain on her neck, making her let out a soft moan. He then used his other hand to draw her waist to him and whispered into her ear, “You will call me Leo only when I want to devour you, Audrey, and I’ll call you pet…because you’re one sweet, scented canine…” He then licked the lines of her neck and sucked on it, giving her a hickey.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

She grabbed a hold of his shirt and held onto his chest. When he drew back, her lips were already hot and wet. He used his finger to massage her lower lip then licked the same finger, “I have been with many people in my centuries of living, Audrey, but something tells me you’ll give me a night I’d never want to remember or forget. Let’s hope I’m wrong…or right.”

Before she could say anything, Leo used his sharp fingernail to tear her dress into two, from the bust to her leg. He yanked the pieces off her body and feasted on her bare posture.

“I’ve never seen a werewolf as alluring as you…” his eyes sparkled childishly.

Audrey’s face grew hotter but she tried not to lose focus of what she had in mind to do. She’d never felt this way ever since being with Tyler; well, that’s because she’d never been with anybody else than him. And even when she was with Tyler, they’d never had sex. Audrey had always made advances to him but she knew it was because of Lily he never really did anything else from make out passionately with her. In truth, she was a virgin and Leo felt it. She’d never felt ashamed of it. She didn’t particularly fancy men in a sense and for the only man she did love to betray her that way, she was certain she’d never ever have any other feelings for any other male thing that walked on that realm.

He titled her chin up to him, “For someone who has the guts to walk into my lair unarmed, you don’t have the same guts for the bed, Audrey. I can smell your innocence… but don’t be scared. I won’t bite…” then he flashed his fangs at her.

He removed his shirt and Sarah took in the art in front of her. His entire chest was covered with tattoos, vampire clan ones she presumed.

“Kneel.”
