Roken swept forward, clashing straight into the monstrous creature with devastating force. As the battle raged on, I trembled. Roken’s dragon form was fierce and magnificently beautiful, but I didn’t know if he was powerful enough to defeat such a formidable enemy.
Utilizing his agility and cunning, Roken dodged and weaved through the infernox’s relentless onslaught, striking with precision and grace. The infernox, unyielding and relentless, pressed forward with its fiery attack, its glowing eyes fixed on his enemy. The air crackled with raw power as each beast unleashed their elemental magic, a tumultuous symphony of fire and shadow that painted the sky in a breathtaking display of power and peril.
They crashed into each other with devastating force. Claws and talons slashed at one another. Roken roared and the infernox shrieked with a demonic cry.
Then the two spiraled down and crashed into the ground with a thunderous explosion. In the aftermath, silence reigned. Terrified, I peeked around the tree in the ominous quiet, taking a step out when the surrounding brush rustled in the wind.
I chewed the inside of my cheek, moving into the plentiful light, searching for any sign of life.
“Roken?” I called out, my voice shaking.
For several minutes, it was silent. There was nothing other than the quiet chirping of the wildlife in the forest. There was no more growling, no more roars, and my heart thumped, anxiety spiraling up from deep within my core. Cautiously, I took another several steps into the clearing, feeling the warmth of the sunlight streaming down on my shoulders. Any other day, that would have brought me comfort, but not at this moment.
Fear pressed down heavily on my chest, making it hard to breathe. Anxiety curled around my lungs, constricting them even further than I thought possible.
Why did I care if he lived or died? Why did I care for this wild beast of a man?
Footsteps crashed through the brush, racing towards me. I swallowed back a strangled cry, retreating back towards the shadows. Terror billowed up through me like a cold wave, and in my hasty retreat, my back slammed into a tree.
I stared into the jungle, my nervous heart slamming right out of my chest. I could see a dark form, and I breathed an audible sigh of relief when Roken emerged.
That feeling was short-lived.
His face was contorted with a savage snarl, and he didn’t stop. He kept racing towards me, his feral expression unwavering, but something deep inside me told me not to run.
So I stayed there with my back against the tree as he slammed a hand to either side of my head. The tree trunk cracked, a thunderous boom reverberating all around me, but still I stayed.
“Roken,” I whispered.
His breathing was wild and uneven, his hair a tangled mane, but there was a glimmer in his eyes that told me not to fear him.
He wouldn’t hurt me. Everything in me told me he wouldn’t.
He just stood there, his bare chest covered in the black blood of the beast he’d just slain, grappling with whatever internal battle he was now fighting.
“It’s me. It’s Sophia,” I whispered.
I didn’t know what I was doing. This was nothing more than basic human instinct.
His flesh quivered before me, his restraint fraying right before my eyes. I needed to do something more. Whatever this was, he needed me to break him out of it.
My eyes flicked upwards, his face close enough to mine that I could feel the heat of his breath. I tipped my own towards his. I stretched upwards, standing on the tips of my toes. My heart pounded with fear.
Then, I kissed him.
It wasn’t a kiss of a friend. This was a kiss of a lover.
Immediately, he responded. Slowly, he melted around me, the anger and fury bleeding out of him with incredible speed. He pinned me against the tree as his arms wound around my waist.
I’d initiated that kiss, but he finished it.
His lips molded to mine, tentative at first. Soon, though, his kiss turned more persistent. His confidence bled through as he pulled me firmly against his body, allowing me to feel every hard ridge of his muscled physique. His pelvis brushed against mine. There was no missing my sharp intake of breath as the iron steel of his cock brushed against my hip.
Roken was a wild, feral creature, but I would be the one to tame him.
My core throbbed with mystical energy, a foreign feeling that hummed through me with dizzying intensity. His lips possessed mine with increasing ferocity, and my heart leapt into my throat. I wound my arms around his neck, holding on as I kissed him just as fiercely.
“Sophia,” he breathed, his voice wavering somewhere between lucidity and insanity. With a snarl, he yanked me against him, not letting me shy away from him any longer.
