Soul Mates Box Set 1 Read online

  Sensing the danger, Delia took off, racing through the forest. He followed her, leaping over fallen trees, skidding on loose leaves, jumping over rocks and exposed tree roots. His feet carried him at a fast pace as he chased his mate through the woods. She dodged him several times, leaping out of the way just when he thought he had her. He put on a sudden burst of speed and pounced, tackling her in a clearing. Their bodies rolled and she quickly rose to her feet. She stared at him with her wolf eyes, growled low, turned around and lay on the forest floor. She positioned herself in a submissive pose, moving her tail out of the way. He mounted her and fucked her in a lustful frenzy. Their wolves howled when they climaxed, the sound echoing throughout the forest.

  As soon as he was done, he rolled off of Delia, transforming into his human self. He panted, trying to catch his breath. Delia also transformed and walked over to him. He pulled her onto his lap and held her tightly, stroking her back.

  “I’m sorry I lost control, Little One. Are you alright?”

  Delia kissed him gently, stroked his face.

  “That was amazing!” she confided with a satisfied smile.

  “I think I know why we’ve been insatiable today.”

  She looked at him with a puzzled expression. So he felt this clawing, aching need too?

  “You’re in heat.”

  Delia gasped. Now she understood why she wanted Nicolai inside of her, seemingly every minute. Since only true mates could breed, she had never been in heat before. Delia couldn’t get enough of her mate. It made sense. Her body wanted him to fuck her multiple times a day so that she would get pregnant.

  Nicolai placed his hand on her abdomen, where their baby could grow.

  “Delia, you’ve been through enough the last few days. I… I would love to have a pup with you, hell, I’d love to have a dozen with you—”

  She arched her eyebrows.

  “A dozen?”

  He grinned.

  “At least two. Maybe three? Honey, I’ll take whatever you decide to give me.”

  He caressed her face.

  “But we don’t have to rush into anything. I don’t want you to feel…We don’t have to get pregnant right now. Because you are in heat, you will need sex often and I will happily provide it. But I don’t always have to fuck you with my cock. I enjoy using my tongue and fingers on you. Hell, I’ll even buy some condoms so that I can fuck you when you want me to. You don’t have to worry about getting pregnant now, if that’s what you wish.”

  Delia thought for a moment. She remembered the way he gazed at the Alpha’s daughter earlier that evening.

  “Why not let fate decide? Fate brought us together and if fate wants us to have a couple of pups, then we will.”

  Nicolai kissed her, ran his fingers through her hair and lay down on the forest floor with his mate on top of him. She laid her head on his chest and toyed with his nipple.

  “Besides, I would rather be surprised by a pregnancy. To ‘plan’ a pregnancy just seems unnatural.”

  If they planned a pregnancy and it failed, she feared it would be heartbreaking. She turned to gaze at her mate, blushing.

  “Nicolai.…”

  He grinned back at her.

  “I know, Little One. You need to be fucked again. Ride me?” he asked.

  She rose up and reached between them, grasping his already hard cock and slid it inside of her. She rode him fast and hard, having an intense orgasm a short while later.

  Temporarily sated, she suggested they go for a swim. They returned to their wolf forms and trotted towards the lake. Their wolves swam in the lake, enjoying the freedom only found in nature. Her need built again and once more, he fucked his mate in wolf form. Before her need struck again, they decided to return home. They trotted back to their clothes and transformed into their human forms. They dressed quickly and Nicolai drove them home as fast as he dared.

  Chapter Eleven

  Nicolai scented his mate’s need. Her arousal grew and her scent filled their car. His cock had stiffened minutes ago and throbbed in his jeans. A few more minutes, a few more minutes, he chanted over and over in his head. He refused to look at his mate, or he would pull the truck over and fuck her in the middle of the road. He tried not to listen to her tiny gasps and pants as she tried to control her need.

  Delia prayed they would be home soon, or she might make Nicolai pull over so she could ride him in the car. Already she was tempted to pull of her jeans and panties, beg him to fuck her. Or maybe she would satisfy herself? She clenched her fists to keep from doing just that. Delia bit her lip to keep from moaning, knew that it would push Nicolai over the edge. Out of the corner of her eye she had seen his erection grow and she was desperate to touch him, stroke him. She would even take him in her mouth again, but it wouldn’t satisfy her aching need. She desperately needed him between her legs.

  He pulled up in front of their house and they both exited the car as if it were on fire. Nicolai’s hand trembled slightly as he put the key in the keyhole. Moments later they were in the house and he shut the door behind him, forgetting to lock it. Delia unbuttoned her jeans, slid down her jeans and panties then leaned over the couch arm. Nicolai unzipped his jeans, withdrew his erect cock and slid into her in one deep thrust. Delia groaned loudly, calling his name. He pounded into her and Delia moaned, begging him to go faster. She didn’t want slow and gentle. She needed fast and rough. Nicolai plunged into her and she came close to an orgasm. Suddenly Nicolai stilled and slumped over her. His sudden weight on her tiny frame pushed the air out of her lungs. Nicolai slid to the floor, unconscious. At once, a familiar and sickening scent reached her nose. Before she could react she felt a sharp sting on her bottom as a belt connected with her ass.

  “Look at you, bent over like a slut, begging him to fuck you! You’re nothing but a WHORE!” her male yelled and she froze in terror.

  He swung the belt again and hit her ass. She jumped and yelped in pain, tears forming in her eyes. “I’ll teach you to fuck another male.”

  He had given her to his Alpha numerous times, had watched while the Alpha fucked her, and it had always turned him on. But seeing her with this male infuriated him because she enjoyed it.

  “Do you know what I’m going to do to you, bitch? I’m going to tie up your mate and I’m going to make him watch while I fuck you.”

  He leaned over Delia and pulled her hair, forcing her head up.

  “And you will beg me to fuck you, Delia, or I will kill him. Do you think he’ll want you once he sees you begging for my cock? He’ll give you back to me and I will punish you for fucking him, for begging him to fuck you.”

  He made a sound of disgust and pushed her head down, releasing her hair. He stood up and moved to Nicolai, who groaned and was starting to regain consciousness. He was thinking about how he would move the heavy male, securing him so he could force him to watch while he fucked Delia.

  Something inside Delia snapped. Now that Nicolai had shown her kindness and love, she would never go back to being with that male. Because of Nicolai, she knew she didn’t have to put up with abuse or pain. She thought about what Lucien had said about Lanie the night he severed her ties with this male. Lanie, a human, had fought three males and won. Delia was timid and meek as a human but her wolf was strong. She wasn’t going to give up her mate. She loved him and would protect him with every fiber of her being. Not once did it occur to her that she could protect herself. Delia changed instantly and jumped on the back of the male, biting sharply on his neck. She severed his jugular and he dropped to the floor. She fell with him, refusing to release his neck until his body stilled in death.

  Nicolai regained consciousness and felt an ache on the back of his head. He sat up, holding the back of his head, finding a large knot that throbbed in pain. Movement at the corner of his eye caught his attention. He turned and observed the scene before him. A white wolf lay across Delia’s male. Her jaw was locked on his neck, blood dripping slowly to the carpet while he lay still. The wolf
raised its head. Blood dripped out of its mouth and onto the male’s back.

  “Delia?”

  Nicolai was confused. The last thing he remembered was being buried inside of Delia, who had bent over their couch. How did he get on the floor? Why did his head ache? Why was the male lying dead on the floor? He shook his head and cleared it. Everything shifted into place. They had been so engrossed in each other, so desperate to have sex that he had forgotten to lock the door. The male must have slipped in and attacked him from behind, knocking him unconscious. Delia had killed the male, defending both of them. His timid Delia. He smiled and reached for her. Delia trotted over to him and he hugged her, ran his fingers through her soft white fur. She shifted into her human form and they held each other.

  “My Heroine!” Nicolai said before he kissed her. “Are you alright?”

  Delia frowned as her fingers found the knot on the back of his head. He winced slightly.

  “I’ll be ok. I just need some ice.”

  She stood and turned to get him some ice. He noticed two large welts on her ass and he swore loudly.

  “What did he do to you?” Nicolai demanded.

  His body tensed and he clenched his fists. Delia turned around and walked back to him, held his face and assured him, “He used his belt on me. Twice. That’s all. I swear he didn’t do anything else, but he was planning on it. I stopped him before he could hurt us.”

  “You’re sure?”

  She nodded and he calmed down considerably. Though he was glad the bastard was dead, a small part of him wished he was still alive so he could kill him. He glared at the dead body as Delia left the room. She returned a few minutes later and placed a bag of ice on his head. She helped him get up and sit on the couch. She went upstairs to get some clothes while Nicolai called Lucien. Within a half an hour, the body had been removed and the living room cleaned up. The area of carpet that had been stained with blood had been cut out and removed.

  Cyril assured Nicolai that he would have the carpet replaced soon. He would put in the order tonight and within two days, the living room will look as if nothing had ever happened. Nicolai thanked him and closed the door behind Cyril and his team.

  Upon his insistence , Dr. Mallory was in their bedroom, examining Delia. Nicolai walked upstairs and found her lying nude on her stomach. Dr. Mallory was applying something to the ugly red marks on her bottom. Nicolai frowned at the marks. It was comforting to know the male would never hurt her again. But he was angry with himself for allowing the male into their home.

  Dr. Mallory left and Nicolai double checked all of the locks on the doors and windows before going to bed. He took a quick shower and slipped into the bed next to Delia. She stroked his face, tracing the frown, noting the way his jaw was set. His whole body seemed tense and she scented his anger.

  “Nicolai, what’s wrong?”

  “It’s my fault he got in here. I didn’t lock the door and he hurt you. He could have done a lot worse and I was unable to protect you. I’m sorry, Delia. I failed you as a mate.”

  “Don’t blame yourself for his actions. He was a bastard long before you met me. You saved me from him, Nicolai. If it wasn’t for you, I’d still be with him, subjected to his abuse. You showed me how a woman should be treated and I love you for it.”

  His eyes softened at her words, some of the anger left him.

  “Besides, if I hadn’t been in heat, we wouldn’t have been so distracted.”

  Nicolai shook his head.

  “This isn’t your fault, Honey.”

  He would never allow her to blame herself for his mistake. He vowed it would never happen again.

  “It’s not your fault, either. Stop blaming yourself, Nicolai. Wouldn’t you rather spend your energy making love to me instead of blaming yourself?”

  She grinned mischievously and he chuckled.

  “You’re right. My energy should be focused on pleasuring you instead of that bastard. At least we never have to worry about him again.”

  He kissed her gently and pulled her so she was on top of him. This time they made love slowly, gently.

  Chapter Twelve

  Several weeks had passed since the attack in their home and Delia was finally out of heat. Nicolai came home and they had dinner. Delia pleaded with him to take her out to a movie and reluctantly he agreed. He wanted to stay home and fuck, but he thought perhaps she needed a break. For the entire six weeks when she was in heat, each day he had fucked her too many times to count. At the end of each day, even he had been sore. It was a good thing they healed quickly.

  He kissed her tenderly as he fondled her ass then went upstairs to shower. Delia grinned and waited a few minutes before following him upstairs. She stripped and pulled up the comforter, making sure everything was covered. She bit her lip and then decided to expose her leg. Excitedly she arranged the comforter so that her entire leg and part of her hip was exposed. He would know that she was completely naked under the cover. She heard the shower shut off and her heart sped up. Did she forget anything? She glanced around the room, noted the remote control on the night stand and lunged for it. She grabbed it and rearranged herself just as Nicolai opened the bathroom door.

  Nicolai saw Delia on their bed, scented her arousal the same moment he realized her leg and hip were exposed. His erection grew in an instant. His mate was naked and wet, waiting for him to fuck her. Had she changed her mind about the movie? He was delighted he would get to fuck her instead. Grinning, he moved towards the bed and she smiled at him slyly. She held up her hand and demanded, “Stop right there!”

  He froze at her commanding tone. Amusement twinkled in his eyes as he awaited further instructions.

  She held up the remote and nervously pressed the wrong button. Rap music blared and she swore, pressed several buttons until the CD came on. I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred played and she blushed. She took a deep breath and met his eyes. Quietly she commanded, “Strip for me.”

  Nicolai was floored. Delia wanted him to do a strip tease? Anything for his mate. He moved to the song, swaying his hips. He shook his hips, Elvis style and she gasped. Her wolf eyes flashed for a brief moment and the scent of her arousal grew. He unbuttoned his shirt as he gyrated his hips then turned around a few times. When it was completely open, he slid his hand up to his nipples and stroked them as a stripper would and she giggled. He looked utterly ridiculous yet sexy He twirled the shirt around in his right hand then tossed it at her. She held it up to her nose and inhaled his scent. The cover slipped down and he saw her breasts, her fully erect nipples.

  Nicolai unbuttoned his jeans and unzipped them slowly. Turning around, he slid them off and stepped out of them. She could admire his ass as he bent down to pick up his jeans. He tossed them onto a chair. He turned to face her and she saw his thick cock had pushed its way through the slit in his boxers. The first song ended and Kiss by Prince came on. He pushed down his boxers and turned around, put his hands behind his head, elbows out and shook his ass. Delia burst out laughing. Her mate was handsome, buff and sexy, but he was no Chippendales’ dancer. She didn’t care, because he was hers. Nicolai turned around when he heard her laughter and smiled. He’d done his best. Stripping was hard work! If his mate wanted him to strip more often, he’d have to work on it. He walked over to the bed, grabbed the covers and with a swift pull, exposed his naked mate. He would never tire of seeing her naked body, wet and waiting for him. He spread her legs and licked her crease. Her laughter died and she gasped. He buried his tongue inside of her and she groaned.

  “Nicolai, please.”

  His tongue moved like a piston, in and out as deep as it could go while his thumb caressed her clit. He raised his head and moved over her. Her wolf eyes glowed and she nodded. He slid his cock into her tight channel and she moaned. He withdrew slowly and pushed back in just as slowly. Delia whimpered and pushed her hips up, sheathing him quickly. His mate wanted it fast? He would do as she commanded. He lowered his head and sucked a nipple into his mouth as he
pumped into her. She grabbed his head and pulled his hair.

  “Harder, please, harder!”

  His mouth worked on her nipple, bit her gently, sucked on it harder while one of his hands pinched her nipple tightly. He pumped his hips fast and hard, making the headboard bang against the wall. Thump! Thump! Thump!

  Nicolai stopped and raised himself up, positioned her legs so they pressed against her chest. He rested her feet on his chest and pumped his hips. The headboard slammed into the wall even harder and she groaned.

  THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

  “Oh, yes, Nicolai, yes.”

  His finger found her clit and he rubbed it as he fucked her.

  “Oh, GOD, Oh, Jesus, Oh, Nicolai!” she yelled as her body contracted in an orgasm.

  Her tight muscles squeezed and massaged his cock. Unable to resist, he emptied his seed inside of her. Nicolai panted and he felt lightheaded. He leaned back and lowered her legs. Still buried inside of her, he leaned over and kissed her tenderly. She stroked his face and smiled. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and held him close to her.

  Nicolai’s eyes glinted with amusement and he asked, “So when are you going to strip for me?”

  Delia blushed and buried her face in his neck. He rolled them so she was on top and she slid away from him. She reached over, opened the night stand and pulled out a CD labeled ‘Striptease Music for Women.’ Nicolai grabbed the CD and raced over to the CD player. He exchanged the CDs and pressed play. He turned to his mate, smiling in anticipation.
