Chapter 26

*CLACK*

I waste no time delivering a strike aimed at Slaiden’s head. He meets it with his own staff with an effective upward block, the sound of wood meeting wood echoes throughout the room. I quickly retract and pierce at his open front. Once again he meets it with a downward block and then counters me by releasing one hand and flipping his Bo staff to pull off a figure eight twirl coming forward which forces me to retreat. (Took me almost 20 times before I got it right, it’s been a while haha.) Slaiden finishes his move by spinning his body tightly and aiming a strike at my head with so much force that my hair shifts as I duck.

Slaiden then stabs at my loweredd position but I quickly block over my head to deflect it. I rise up as he retreats back into a fighting stance. He strikes at my head again but I block it with a high block then counter with a similar strike of my own. The sound of the Bo staffs meeting fills the air as he parries it over to the side, leaving me open. Slaiden uses his higher speed to send the opposite end of his staff upward to hit my chin. I barely bend backwards enough to avoid it, the surrounding air rushes against my faces. Once the Bo is out of range, I jump backwards to gain a bit of distance. It’s hard to get a decent hit on him. The fact that he still has his wings makes it even harder to get a good shot at his side since he can easily block with them. I briefly look over him trying to find an opening.

“Not bad.” Slaiden says as we lock eyes for a moment but I break the stare to come at him again without comment. I thrust my Bo staff at his face but Slaiden hooks it with his own then copies my attack. I block it to the side then aim the other end of my Bo at his bent left knee. He jumps back as it just grazes his knee, not even enough to leave a mark. He shoots me a smirk, “Not bad at all.”

I regroup and meet Slaiden in the eye. Neither of us has made a solid hit. He’s holding back. He’s not using his full strength. If he was the staffs would’ve cracked in two earlier. I’m slightly shocked that he is keeping it fair, I actually have a shot because of it. Was I right to assume that Slaiden honors a fair fight or is he just toying with me for fun….my money is on the latter. Hell, it could be a bit of both since he is a lust driven and blood carving demon.

I grit my teeth in frustration at this realization but use that focus for my next move. Slaiden notices my features become tense so he grips his wooden Bo staff tighter, ready. I rush at him with my Bo aimed at his throat.

*CLACK*

He blocks it.

*CLACK*

I block him.

*CLACK*………

A series of clacking wood fills the dojo as we go head to head again, neither backing down.

We separate again to regain our positions. My breathing has become heavier from the intense fight. I take a second to calm my heart rate before Slaiden makes another move. I think of him being in my room again, threatening my family, using my fear to his advantage. I don’t want him near them. Not now, not ever. I could get over sleeping with him again, after all he already took my virginity so what’s another time….at least that’s what I tell myself. But my family is the most important thing to me and I will fight for their safety because what guarantee do I have of Slaiden not using them against me, dangling their lives on a string just out of my reach. These thoughts cause anger to build up inside me. I feel my muscles tense up.

“Save that anger for the bedroom.” Slaiden says with a smirk, sensing my emotions.

That does it. I twirl my Bo staff over my head then at my side, showing confidence and grace as I step toward him. I swing hard at his head which Slaiden has to duck to avoid, a look of surprise yet satisfaction in his eyes which confuses me. He brings his staff to strike at my exposed side. I’m just quick enough in my block to direct his staff away after just grazing my left side. The contact of the Bo creates a slight notion of pain but I’ve had much worse before. It will only leave a slight bruise. I just counter him by sending the right end of my Bo at his left side, at his ribs. But Slaiden’s demonic speed makes him able to block it no matter how fast I am. I quickly retract before he can make an attack. I move slightly to the side and thrust my staff at his middle. He just makes a side step it to avoid it, letting my Bo go past him. But Slaiden doesn’t attack since our angles don’t leave any decent targets exposed. Instead he hits my staff near my hands as a distraction. While I don’t let go like he wanted me to, my hold does loosen. Seeing this, Slaiden quickly goes for another strike but I move away to avoid it. I tighten my grip and go to attack.

Slaiden acts first though. He thrusts at my front so I have to awkwardly change my form to make an effective downward block. It works but the force isn’t strong enough to stall him. He quickly retracts and throws another one at my face. My eyes slightly widen at this sudden motion but I won’t be quick enough to block it. So I bend backward to avoid the oncoming Bo. It glides over me by a few inches. I’m off balance now so I need to recover quickly. But I don’t get that chance because Slaiden hooks my staff, pulling it out of my grasp. I struggle to get upright but my legs are taken out from under me by Slaiden’s Bo hooking the back of my knees.

I give a hiss of pain as my back hits the hard carpet. At least I was quick enough to tuck my head in so it didn’t hit the floor. My arms are extended outward to break my fall, they help reinforce my head but little to soften the fall. I attempt to get up by swinging up with my feet but a Bo staff in my face stops me. Slaiden’s staff is barely inches away from my nose. I follow the length of the Bo to his face. He has his smirk in place, his eye’s revealing victory. I then realize that it had been his plan to get me off balance, not an action of opportunity.

“I win.” He says, flashing his fangs down at me.

I glare up at him, my discontent clear on my face. But I’m no sore loser so I spare any unneeded words. Seeing that I’m not commenting, Slaiden withdraws his Bo so I can get up. He actually surprises me by crouching down and extending his hand, wanting to help me up. I hesitate at first but decide to take it since Slaiden is actually being gentlemanly, a concept I’m having trouble believing. As soon as I place my small hand in his larger clawed one, I’m immediately and effortlessly pulled up to a stand. I try to get my hand back but Slaiden keeps his grip firm. He pulls me further towards him and wraps his free arm around my waist. Once I’m secure against him, he lets go of my hand and places his on my chin. He lowers his face to my left ear.

“Now we can have a different kind of fun.” He whispers as he nips my ear causing me to shudder.

He starts kissing my neck and shifts to pick me up when I stop him. “Wait.” I say to grab his attention. He stops to show that he is listening but keeps his lips to my neck. “I’ll hold up my end of the deal but my parents need to know that they shouldn’t expect me back until later.”

He gives a small growl of annoyance which makes me tense up, still getting used to his animalistic behavior since he’s not human. “Fine.” He says against my neck, the vibrations of his voice send a tickling sensation down my spine. “But you won’t be going home…at least not tonight.”

“So he wants me to spend the whole night with him, I don’t think I’ll be getting much sleep.” I think as his statement from this morning plays in my head. “Alright.” Is all I say as I wait for him to release me.

He does but not before nuzzling into my neck like an affectionate puppy…..with super sharp fangs. I take a step back and walk around him, my destination the locker room. Footsteps from behind alert me that Slaiden is following me. I walk in the women’s locker room but leave the door open since I don’t plan on changing now. What’s the use? Slaiden will just be making me take them off soon anyway. Slaiden leans against the door frame with his arms crossed, watching me as I rustle through my bag for my phone. I find it and punch in my home number. I listen to the dial tone and after one ring my mom picks up.

“Hey Harley, are you all right?” She asks on the other end.

“Yeah I’m fine mom.” I lie. “I just wanted to let you know that I’m going to spend the night at Tina’s so I’ll be back sometime tomorrow.”

“Ok tell Tina’s mom I said hi. Good night baby.” My mom says with a cheerful voice.

“I will, night mom.” Another lie. I end the call and toss my cell back in my bag.

Slaiden then speaks. “You can leave your things here, I’ll have you back before sun up.”

I just nod, letting it sink in that I will not be getting any sleep tonight. I grab the keys to the school only and walk towards Slaiden in the doorway. I hit the lights and brush past him. I feel him grab my ass which causes me to give a small yelp in surprise. I hear him give a small amused laugh behind me as we go out the back door. Once we are both outside I lock the door securely and turn to face Slaiden.

He wastes no time in sweeping me up and taking to the sky. I hold on to him tightly, nervous of being so high off the ground with no time to prepare. Slaiden flies into the city, the whole time holding me securely against his hard chest. Within minutes, the hotel comes into view, all lit up. As we get closer I see that Slaiden was telling the truth, the expensive hotel room that we were in last night is dark. I’m curious if he checked it out earlier before coming to the dojo. Once we are in front of the window Slaiden cuts into the glass again and pushes it through. It lands softly on the carpet. Slaiden flies a few feet backward and then we glide through the opening. As soon as we are inside Slaiden sets me down and walks over to the door. He puts a silence spell on the door again, the eerie pale red glow fills the dark room. He then flips the light switch. The room looks exactly the same, everything perfect and in place. At least at first glance. Something catches my eye on the bed. I walked over to the bed to get a better look.

Laying at the foot of the bed was a silky black nighty. Fresh from the store, the price tag still on and Slaiden obviously didn’t pay for it. I pick up the smooth, light fabric and examine it. It’s sexy yet modest if that’s even possible. The covering for the breasts is silk while the short gown section that would barely cover my butt was a thin, see-through material. I also notice a matching pair of silk panties on the bed. I lift the price tag to my face. “$300! Is he crazy!?” I think as my eyes widen. I don’t even notice that Slaiden is behind me until he starts messaging my arms and kissing my neck.

“I picked up a little something for you.” He says smoothly into my ear.

While the sensation feels good, I don’t let him get to me just yet. “Are you nuts? Do you know how much this cost? What if someone saw you!” I say as I put down the lingerie.

He just laughs against my neck, his fangs lightly grazing my flesh. “Please, your human technology isn’t that hard to disable. Price is not a problem so enjoy it. I picked it out just for you, black looks good on you.”

He starts kissing and sucking on my neck again as one hand slips under my shirt to graze the still slick skin from my workout. But I still have more to say. “I’m not wearing it.”

Slaiden stops at this. “Oh really?” He asks, slightly mockingly.

“Yes. I agreed to sleep with you if I lost but you can’t make me wear that. I’m not your toy to dress and do with as you please.” I say with confidence.

Suddenly a sharp pain hits my neck. Slaiden had bitten me. I can feel his fangs prick into my skin, not deep but enough to draw blood. I feel the blood start to flow into Slaiden’s mouth as he sucks hard. It hurts but he quickly stops and licks the wound clean. He is punishing me, letting me know what he is capable of if I don’t comply. I guess there is only so much of my fire he will take. Once the small amount of blood is gone, Slaiden speaks. “Right now you are. You will do as I say. You agreed so these are my terms. I can make this pleasurable or painful, the choice is yours.”

His voice is stern with his sharp words. He’s not playing around this time. I realize that I have to completely comply. Looking down at the nighty, I give a small sigh. It is really pretty and I’ve never worn something like it or as expensive. I just want to hold on to some bit of control over this. But I’m in the backseat while Slaiden is at the wheel. He has all the power and I’d like to keep the rest of my blood in my body and not get raped. “Fine.” I reply and grab the lingerie.

I feel Slaiden smirk against my neck as he releases me. As if to emphasis his victory, he cups my ass and pushes me towards the bathroom door. I shoot him a look over my shoulder as I reach the door which he returns with a look of amusement and satisfaction. He even licks his lips at me, like a hungry wolf stalking a bunny rabbit. I’m thankful Slaiden hasn’t been introduced to Playboy yet.

I close the door behind me and hit the lights. The beautiful bathroom is the same as well, perfectly clean. Glancing at my slightly deshelved appearance in the mirror, I start to undress. I peel off my sweat matted shirt and shorts then pull off my sports bra and underwear. My body is slightly moist from sweat. I grab a towel off the nearby rack and wipe myself down so my skin feels fairly clean. Once I’m satisfied, I grab the panties and rip off the tag. I slowly put them on, liking the feel of silk against my sensitive thighs. I then pull off the tag of the nighty and slip it on. The smooth material cups my breasts nicely and the rest softly hangs loosely over my middle. The panties are visible underneath, not leaving much to the imagination. Turning slightly, I notice that it barely covers my butt. Giving myself a once over I have to agree that I look good in black but I would never admit it to Slaiden’s face. I try to fix up my hair a bit, working out my nerves. Once I am completely satisfied with my appearance, I scoop up my clothes, open the door and walk back into the room, hitting the lights as I go.

Slaiden is in the middle of the room, his shirt and sash already discarded. His wings are gone as well, which I conclude to be a comfort preference when in the act of sex and sleep. I drop my clothes to the floor along with my keys then meet Slaiden’s eyes. He stares at me for a long time, taking in every detail. Slaiden’s eyes tell me that he is enjoying the view. I take a few steps closer to him, a bit embarrassed to be wearing something like this for him. I feel my cheeks become heated as I try to focus past him but failing.

“Turn around.” Slaiden says as he crosses his arms over his chiseled chest. I do to give him the full view, fighting the urge to roll my eyes at him. “You look good enough to eat.”

“I once thought you were going to.” I think sarcastically. Then out loud I say, “Well then take a picture cuz it will last longer.”

Slaiden just raises an eyebrow at this, slightly confused. But it passes quickly once he realizes my meaning of this not becoming a routine.

“I prefer the real thing.” He says as he steps towards me.

I cross my arms in annoyance but this only causes his eyes to travel downward because I have unintentionally pushed up my boobs to give him a nice perky picture. I quickly drop them but Slaiden is already before me. He quickly scoops me up and lightly throws me on the bed. I land on my back with my knees raised, exposing my barely covered womanhood. I raise myself up on my forearms to see Slaiden smirking at the edge of the bed. He gets on and slowly crawls towards me. My eyes slightly widen at the sight of his golden eyes gleaming in the dim light, lust filled. Slaiden crawls on top of me, one knee between my thighs, his arms resting at the sides of my head after trailing up my front.

Slaiden lowers his head to nuzzle in the crook of my neck, inhaling my scent. “Tonight, little girl, will leave you begging for my touch.”

I’m about to comment but Slaiden seals my lips with his own, hot with passion. He is rough and demanding, needing to be in control. He licks my lips, wanting entrance. I comply since there is no getting out of this one. I might was well give in. His tongue plunges into my mouth, wrestling with my own for dominance. I feel his right hand move to slip under my nighty to reach my breasts. He cups my full breast with his hand, grazing over my sensitive nipple. Slaiden deepens the kiss as his right hand messages my flesh, kneading my erect nipple underneath the silky fabric. A moan leaves my lips as my body becomes aroused. Slaiden nips at my lower lip as he grinds his pelvis against mine. I can feel his erection on my thigh through his pants. He then moves his hand to my other full breast, teasing the pink skin like the other. His lips kiss my throat and collar bone, moving downward until they reach my cleavage. His tongue darts out to lick upwards to my jaw. His teeth lightly scrape my skin as he settles at the middle of my neck. He sucks and nips me as his hand travels lower to slip under my black silk panties which are becoming wet.

Slaiden slips a finger into my hole before I even realize what he is doing. The sudden intrusion causes me to arch my body to meet his. His finger slides deeper in me, my wetness surrounding it. Another moan fills the air as he slips in another finger. My walls stretch to fit them but I’m so tight that his fingers are hugged tightly. He begins pumping in and out of me as his mouth finds mine once more, silencing my sounds of pleasure. I feel a bit of discomfort at the size of his two fingers inside me, my still inexperienced vagina tries to adjust. I feel his thumb play with my clitoris to tease my nerves which makes me arch more to meet his thrusting hand. His tongue enters my mouth once more, exploring my mouth as his fingers continue their arousing torture. I feel my core tighten up. I let out a muffled moan as a wave of pleasure soars through my body. My juices gush out, coating Slaiden’s fingers. He breaks the kiss to allow air. My breathing is heavy and my eyelids are half closed in bliss. His fingers slowly come out, trailing his claws against my cavern walls which stings yet creates pleasure. Slaiden brings his dripping fingers to his lips, sucking off all my cum as if it’s sweet honey. He licks them clean then licks his lips, not wasting a drop. He then kisses me, thrusting his tongue in to make me taste what he is doing to me. He then rises up to sit on top of me, his erection in plain view.

“Now for the main event.” He says huskily as he takes a clawed finger to hook the fabric where my cleavage ends. In a flash the lingerie is ripped in two, straight down the middle. Apparently it was for a one night use, such a waste for the price in my opinion. But then again, Slaiden used his five finger discount on it. He rips the remains from me and tosses them over his shoulder. He then takes my panties off, taking care not to rip them so he can take his time trailing his hands down my thighs. They join the nighty on the floor and Slaiden then shifts to remove his pants. I close my eyes at this, still feeling embarrassed about seeing him naked. I hear him softly laugh at my display.

I open my eyes to meet his gaze. I glance down at his member, still uneasy with his large size. I return my eyes to his face and give him a concerned look that I can’t deny. He just smirks are my uneasiness. He starts to shift when I speak. “Wait, protection again.”

Slaiden gives me an annoyed look, not appreciating my stalling. Giving a small growl, he reaches downward and mumbles the same spell from last night. Just because he is having his way with me doesn’t mean that I’m getting pregnant with demon babies. He shouldn’t complain, at least I’m not making him wear a condom even though I’d prefer it for security reasons. Once he’s done Slaiden grips my sides and rolls me over to sit on top of him.

I’m confused by this sudden change. I’m resting on his abs just above his erect member. Slaiden’s hands grip my hips tightly and lift me up effortlessly. He positions my entrance above his penis, my juices dripping down onto him. I lock eyes with him, my nervousness showing. Slaiden just flashes his fangs at me, dragging out the anticipation. Without another word, Slaiden brings me down, impaling me with his throbbing member. I give a small yelp of pain. My body is still sore and tight, still unaccustomed to this intrusion. He slowly starts to pump me over him, his eyes revealing a look of pure pleasure. As he impales me, my tight cavern starts to adjust to his great size. Soon the pleasure comes. The sensation begins to feel good, like last night. I find my body pumping with him, to meet his body as close as possible.

Even though my mind says no, I might as well enjoy this. It could be worse. I give in to my lack of control over my own body. I place my hands on his abs to brace myself as the heated knot builds up in my core. I can feel my climax coming as Slaiden picks up the pace. Harder and deeper, his length fills me. Suddenly I throw my head back and release a loud moan as an intense sensation of pleasure hits, my walls hugging his pulsating member. My cum rushes out, surrounding his member and dripping down onto him. Slaiden growls in pleasure, enjoying the feel of being inside me. I ride out my orgasm, my eyes rolling back in my head. I feel Slaiden’s grip shift as he pulls out of me. He rolls us over so that he is on top now. He enters me again and thrusts as deep as he can get, his full length not even inside me. He lowers his mouth to my right breast and starts nipping and sucking on it, teasing the pert nipple with his tongue. I arch my back at this, the feel of his tongue on my skin is so good. He grips my legs, lifting them for better access as he thrusts deeper inside me. Slaiden then kisses me, bruising my lips as he pulls me closer.

I feel another orgasm coming on as Slaiden continues his rhythm. I release once more, bunching my fists into the sheets as I arch my back. I tighten around him as my body releases more of my juices. Slaiden bites my lip in an act of pleasure as I climax around him. Slaiden keeps thrusting as the sensation fades, showing no sign of slowing down like last night. Soon I cum a third time, my body beginning to tire. Soreness is setting in but Slaiden just pumps harder, nipping and kissing my neck the whole time. He gives a few small grunts in pleasure as I cum once more.

He captures my lips again as his grip on my thighs tighten. My eyes shut in bliss as another wave hits. My back digs into the damp sheets from my slick, sweaty body. I cum three more times before I notice a change in pace. Slaiden is thrusting faster, each one more rougher then the last. He is reaching his own climax finally.

“Say my name Harley, let me hear you moan in want for me. That you need me inside you.” Slaiden says huskily.

“No.” I get out defiantly. He wants complete dominance over me which I won’t let him have. He can take my body but he will never own me.

“Say it.” He says back, not accepting my answer.

“No.” I get again, although weaker. My body is so tired, my eyelids are growing heavy.

“Say my name!” He growls out deeply. He slams into me harder.

I stay silent as my body is being pounded into by him. Not giving up, Slaiden bites into me again as he did earlier as punishment. The unexpected act causes me to cry out. He laps up the blood but keeps thrusting. I can feel myself needing release soon, as well as Slaiden. Then we release together.

“Slaiden!” I cry out at the intensity.

I have no control any more. Slaiden gives an animalistic growl as he releases his seed into me. His load filling me completely, to the point of overflowing. The hot rush sends my nerves in overdrive. My walls clench tightly around him as he releases. My body goes limp in exhaustion. I held on longer then I thought but I can’t take anymore. My eyes start to close as Slaiden finishes, his member going limp as he empties into me. He slowly pulls out, teasing me with his touch. Slaiden gives a grunt of pleasure as he leaves my hole, satisfaction clear on his face. He looks down at me with his golden eyes. Mine must look glazed over from him. He kisses me neck, working his way up to my lips. As he kisses me, I feel him trail a finger between my folds, collecting mine and his juices. He brings the glistening finger up to my mouth as we part our kiss. He places the finger in my mouth which I’m too tired to fight. I taste the bitterness, letting it slide over my tongue.

“Taste what you do to me, Harley. Let your tongue taste us.” Slaiden whispers as he nips my earlobe.

I do as he says, licking his finger clean. He pulls it out once I’m done and replaces it with his mouth, plunging his own tongue in to taste me. He explores my mouth, deepening the kiss to completely taste us. He then breaks the kiss to move lower. He trails light kisses between my breasts to my flat stomach. He then raises my thighs to rest on his shoulders as his face inches closer to my womanhood. Slaiden snakes his tongue out to lap up our juices, slowly licking at my glistening thighs. He moves in between my folds, sliding along the moist wetness. I give another moan of pleasure as my tired body tries to get closer to him. His talented tongue licks me clean until not a drop is left. Slaiden then rises to his knees and looks down at me, his eyes roaming over my glistening body lying before him.

“Now for you to clean me off, little girl.” He says as pulls me up.

My eyes grow huge at what he is implying. No way am I putting that thing in my mouth. Slaiden smirks at my sudden spike in nervousness. He pulls me around so he is leaning against the head board. He starts kissing my neck as if to calm my nerves, rubbing my chest against his. “Relax.” He says. “This is new to you so just lick me off. There will be plenty of time to learn.”

I do slightly calm at this but the thought of my tongue on him makes me uneasy. Slaiden doesn’t let it sink in though because he eases my body down in front of him so that I am on my stomach, his manhood before me. He looks even bigger up close. His scent is musky, all male. I actually find it pleasant somehow. I slowly inch closer, uncertain. I lightly flick my tongue out at the tip. Slaiden tenses up at this. His flesh is covered in cum that I have to lick off. I lick once more, quickly. I want to get this over fast. The taste is bitter as my tongue retreats. I lick quickly again but as I do Slaiden grips my head, weaving his fingers into my hair. He applies a bit of pressure to bring me closer, wanting me to go slow so he enjoys it more. I comply reluctantly and lick slowly, circling the tip. I then start at the base, licking slowly to the tip to get all of it. Slaiden gives a low growl in pleasure. I’m thankful he is not asking for more but that maybe because I didn’t put up a fight he eased up. I lick some more until it is all gone.

“Swallow it.” He orders huskily, still feeling satisfied.

I do. The salty cum trails down my throat. His hold on me loosens so I push myself up onto my knees, facing him. Slaiden’s arms wrap around me to pull me to him. He pulls me into his chest, nuzzling into my hair. It’s hard to believe that such a cold blooded killer could be so affectionate in bed. It’s almost as if he is letting his guard down but I know that’s not the case. He then slides us downward to lay on the large, soft mattress. His arm wraps around my middle to pull me tightly against him, my form molding into his. Slaiden nips at my ear before speaking in a low tone.

“You need rest, we will wash up later.”

I just nod against him, too tired to even speak. I close my eyes and steady my heavy breathing. I let myself relax, concentrating on the feel of the comfy bed on my skin. Slaiden places his head above mine, his chin resting on it. Soon darkness consumes me, sleep taking over.
