Tormented Ch. 02

By: FallenTreasure



Almost a year went past before he saw her again. He was driving down the sunlit street, the roof down and his music loud. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted a mane of silken chestnut curls, slowing slightly his eyes were drawn to the sway of her round hips in her tiny shorts, her vest barely reached her belly button showing the smooth skin of her tanned stomach and her high-topped trainers showed her shapely legs to perfection. Pulling over next to her he called out.

"Lily?" She turned looking confused but when she recognised who it was her pretty face split into a delighted smile.

"Ryan? Holy shit! How are you?" She leant on the door of the car and flicked her long hair over a shoulder. He grinned up at her and shrugged.

"Not too bad, can't complain. How you been kiddo?"

"Good, yeah. Fuck I can't believe how long it's been."

"A year," he looked her up and down. "You look good Lily."

"You don't look too bad yourself. We should catch up soon if you're here for a while."

"I've got a place here, down the road."

"You live here?" He nodded and she shook her head. 

"I thought I'd moved far enough away this time." 

"I've only been here a couple months, it was an accident I ended up here." His voice sounded slightly guilty and he shrugged in defeat.

"Well, maybe we could meet for drinks later? You can tell me all about this accident."

"Sounds good, you can come to my apartment?"

She nodded. "Yeah ok, I guess that would be fine."

Quickly he jotted his address down on a scrap of paper and handed it to her. "About eight sound ok?"

She nodded and tucked the piece of paper into her bra. "That sounds perfect. I'll see later Ryan." She walked away and he couldn't help but watch the seductive sway of her hips and the soft bounce of her ample breasts. Peeling away from the pavement he merged with the traffic and went about his day, the whole time thinking about the coming night.

When back at home he called Lucy and putting on his best pleading voice set to work.

"What do you want Ryan?"

"Oh Luce what makes you think I want something."

"You've got the voice on now get to it."

"Would you mind coming to clean real quick? It's important."

"Entertaining a lady friend?"

"Not just anyone, it's an old friend I just want to make a good impression."

He heard her sigh heavily down the phone. "Fine, you're lucky you're my favourite boy or I'd slap you so hard you'd see fuzzy for a week."

"Love you Lucy." He hung up and placed the bottles of wine in the large fridge, the bottles of whisky on the large drink tray and the food he had brought on the counter. He hadn't wanted to ask Lucy to cook until she arrived, she was much more likely to say yes when he was in front of her.

In his room he stripped and walked to the shower, washing quickly he dressed in a white shirt, black trousers and smart black shoes, he attempted to tame his blonde curls but gave up. At 7.55 he walked back through to the large dining room where the food was laid out on the table with a note from Lucy once again telling once again how lucky he was to have her, folding it he put it in his pocket just as the bell rang.

Opening the door he saw her dressed in a short black dress, the bottom flared from her hips to mid-thigh and the top fit closely to her soft breasts pushing them to an even greater advantage. She smiled up at him through her long lashes and presented him with a bottle of wine.

"Hi kid, come in." She smiled shyly and looked around the large penthouse apartment in awe. "Come through, I cooked."

"You cooked? You mean you got someone to cook for you."

"You know me so well," he opened the bottle and poured two glasses, then gesturing her to a seat he handed her a glass, he took the seat next to her at the head of the table and took the lids of the dishes of chicken, spicy vegetables, sticky rice, soft warm rolls and large succulent shrimp with a sweet chilli dip.

"Wow, this looks amazing." As he loaded their plates she motioned around the room. "And this apartment is amazing. How did you find it?"

"I didn't so much find it, as acquire it." He placed her plate back in front of her and took a sip of the wine. "According to this block I am the nephew of Mr and Mrs Johanson who have decided to travel for a while. I'm house sitting."

"Where are they really?"

"Well they are travelling in a sense."

"The sea?" He nodded. "Classic." She took a bite of the chicken and her eyes closed in ecstasy, taking another bite she studied him closely. "How have you been Ryan, really?"

"I've been better I've been worse. And you?"

"Same, what have you been doing with yourself?"

"Well after you left I travelled for a bit, India, Australia, Thailand, backpacked through Europe. It was amazing. What did you do?"

She picked up a shrimp and dipped it into the spicy, sweet sauce, biting down she moaned quietly as the flavours danced across her tongue.

"I bummed around for a while, did some work in a couple of bars. I even danced for a bit." As she spoke he re-filled their empty plates and topped up the wine. "I ended up her about six months ago, got a flat, been here ever since. I like it here."

"You were dancing?"

"Yeah, made some pretty good money as well. I haven't lost my touch." They continued to eat while he built up the courage to ask what he really wanted to know.

"You can ask Ryan, no need to be shy."

"Any guys in your life?" She took the last bite of chicken and vegetables from her plate and studied it on her fork. 

"No. There was one guy but he wasn't...you know." She blushed slightly and looked down. "What about you? Any girls?"

He studied her as she ate her last bite and shook his head. "No, there's only you kid." She smiled and reached across to stroke the back of his hand. He refilled their glasses and stood, holding out his hand he pulled her to her feet and smiled. 

"Come on baby, I'll show you round." Taking her through the rooms he stopped by the large window in the lounge, she gazed out at the view and sighed. 

"Wow, its beautiful." 

"Yeah I got lucky," he took her glass from her hand and placed it on the windowsill, then standing behind her pulled her back against his hard chest. He wrapped his arms around her small waist and breathed in the scent of her hair, she still used her strawberry shampoo.

"Ryan, don't."

Gently kissing her neck he pressed his hips against the softness of her ass and smiled triumphantly as she gasped and grinded softly against his hardening cock. "Why?"

"Because I've just stopped wanting this."

"It doesn't seem like you don't want it." He began thrusting slowly against her and her hand came over her shoulder and tangled in his hair, with one hand he undid the zip holding her in her dress, it slipped to pool at her feet and a large hand cupped her breast. She gasped as his calloused fingertips caressed her nipple and she shuddered in his arms, his free hand slid down her stomach and slid between her soft thighs. Her pussy was wet already and he groaned against her ear.

"I knew you'd be wet for me."

"Ryan." Roughly he turned her and pushed her down to sit on the windowsill. Sliding his large hands up her calves to her thighs he gently nudged her legs apart and leaned close to lick the soft skin of her thigh. "Ryan." Her voice was pleading and her hips thrust towards his mouth, throwing her left leg over his shoulder he kissed the quivering folds of her sweet pussy and grinned at her soft cry. Licking a path up her stomach his hot mouth engulfed her nipple and she pushed to get closer, her hips thrust up and her breath came in sharp pants. "Please Ryan."

"Please what?"

"You know what."

"I want to hear you say it."

"Fuck me, with your fingers, your cock I don't care. I just need you inside me."

He growled savagely and curled his hand round her thigh. Slowly he worked one finger into the silken depths of her tight pussy, she let out a husky cry and her hand came down to pull his mouth back to her breast, his free hand held her hips down, slowly he moved his finger inside her and she gasped sharply as pleasure washed over her body. Her hips moved against him, frustrated, and she moaned.

"Please, I need more." Adding another finger he sped up his movements and her hands grasped the edge of the windowsill, her back arched and he bit down on her nipple. She hissed in a pained breath and her strong nails bit into the wood of the sill, he felt the silken walls of her pussy flutter around his fingers then clamp around his as she came, a harsh cry ripped from her throat and every muscle in her body tensed. He lifted his head from her breast to watch her in the last moments of her orgasm, her cheeks were flushed and she shivered uncontrollably. Finally she slumped back against the cold glass of the window; he moved to kneel between her legs and kissed her lingeringly. Bringing his fingers to her mouth he allowed her to taste herself on him and she moaned in pleasure, hungrily she suckled on his finger and he growled.

"Stand up," her eyes widened at the harsh tone of his voice and she stood nervously, her heeled black shoes stretched her long legs to perfection and he gazed hungrily at her.

"Undress me." Again his hard command startled her and she reached out tentatively to undo the buttons of his white shirt, he kicked off his shoes and socks and watched as her small tongue appeared from her pouting lips as she concentrated on his buttons. Finally she pushed his shirt from his shoulders and her small hands moved down to the button and fly of his trousers, pushing them to join his shirt on the floor. He grabbed both her wrists in one hand and stilled her progress, keeping his grip on her he grabbed his shirt from the floor, wrapping it around her wrists he tied it in a tight knot making sure her hands stayed in front of her. Then pushing her until she knelt in front of him he stepped out of his boxers and stood naked in front of her. She pulled her full bottom lip between her teeth and gazed at his muscled form, leaning forward slightly she looked up at him as though waiting for permission, without a word he tangled his fingers in her long hair and pulled her head towards him pushing the entire length of his long cock down her warm, soft throat. Her eyes widened then closed as she moaned softly, the vibrations sending shivers through his whole body and his eyes slid shut on a hiss of pleasure. She took control bobbing up and down his impressive length taking it to the hilt down her throat before sliding back to the tip her soft tongue teasing his head before sinking back down. His grip tightened on her hair and his hips flexed against her incredible mouth, looking down his shuddered at the sight of his whole length disappearing down her throat. Pulling her back sharply she moaned quietly at the sharp pain in her head and looked up at him, her dark eyes staring at him questioningly.

He pulled her to her feet and again she let out a groan at the pain in her head, he lifted her into his arms and she automatically wrapped her long legs around his waist, he kissed her passionately before pulling on the hair at the nape of her neck and kissing down her throat pausing to suckle at her collar bone. He hands were still bound between their bodies and she growled in frustration that she couldn't touch him. He walked through the apartment and entered the large master bedroom, a huge four poster bed stood in the centre of the room and he moved straight to it. Placing her back on the floor he turned her until she faced the bed and pulled her tied hands to one of the posts, the excess shirt he tied around the post effectively anchoring her there. He knew she could escape easily if she had the mind to but his girl had always had a thing for being tied and he was going to take full advantage of this fact. The way he had tied her made her bend at the waist at a ninety degree angle pushing her perfect ass out to an even greater advantage, the heels made the muscles in her legs flex and move beautifully. Standing behind her he ran his large hand over the silken skin of her butt and down her thighs, she shuddered against his touch and pressed backwards into his touch. Before she even realised his hand had left her he smacked her hard causing her to jump and cry out.

"Patience kid, move again and I'll make it worse for you understand." She nodded and whimpered her agreement. Caressing her skin again he knelt behind her and gently ran his tongue up the back of both her legs starting at her ankle and ending at the juncture of her thighs, she moaned quietly and her whole body trembled as she tried to keep still, he slid one finger inside her and smiled.

"You're so wet for me baby." She groaned and tossed her head back sending her long hair cascading down her back and over her shoulders, adding another finger he circled them round sending jolts of pleasure through her body, trailing his lips across her ass he suddenly bit down hard on the spot when her thigh changed smoothly into the perfect curve and she jolted pressing back against his fingers and biting her lip. Only after this did she realise what she had done and began to tremble in fear, slowly he stood with a dangerous smile on his beautiful face.

"I thought I told you not to move."

"I'm sorry, please Ryan."

He ran his hands across her skin and she shivered awaiting what was coming. He grinned then brought his hand down hard on the left cheek of her butt. The pain was instantaneous and all-consuming and she cried out sharply dropping her chin to her chest causing her hair to fall forward covering her face, another slap landing on the other cheek that seemed even harder and more painful than the last, in total five slaps were laid upon each cheek and by the end she was sobbing and clutching the post to keep herself upright. He moved to stand behind her and in one swift movement he slammed into her making her cry out again this time entirely in pleasure, he curled his fingers into the skin of her hips and pulled her up until she settled more comfortably on his thighs, her feet still touched the floor but he supported almost all her weight in his strong grip. He began moving inside her with slow deliberate strokes and she gasped trying to keep still, he wrapped his arm around her hips keeping her to him while his other hand travelled slowly up her back, wrapping her hair in a fist he pulled her head back exposing her throat and sped his movements up.

Her hands curled into fists around the post her nails making deep gauges in the wood and it began to splinter around her hands, she revelled the feeling of his thick length inside her, stretching her deliciously and hitting the sweet spot inside her time and time again until she was trembling. Tears ran down her cheeks as she convulsed around him coming on a husky scream. He grinned and letting go of her hair he slapped her ass once more harder than before and she dropped her head again on a muffled sob as she came again.

"Ryan!"

"You like this?"

"Ryan please, I need it harder."

"What? Tell me what you need."

"Fuck me harder, I need you to pound me with your hard cock please." Tears still rolled down her cheeks as she jerked in pleasure, he growled at the words and sped up slamming into her mercilessly.

"Oh god, Lily, I'm gonna cum." She pushed back against his meeting his thrust for thrust as her tight pussy massaged his cock, once more she tensed against him and he pressed into her emptying himself into the hot depth of the pussy. She slumped against the poster her breathing ragged and her body still trembling, he ripped his shirt from her wrists and lifted her limp form against his strong chest, sitting against the pillows he pulled her shoes off he dropped them off the side of the bed, holding her to his chest he ran his hands up and down her back soothing her as they caught their breath.

"Holy shit Ryan."

He looked down guiltily and tucked a stray curl behind her ear. "I'm sorry kid, I didn't hurt you did I?" She shook her head and buried her face in his chest.

"No, I just forgot what it was like with you." Gingerly she placed a hand on his chest and felt the beat of his heart almost too slow to be human. 

"Why did you follow me?"

"I didn't want to be away from you."

"You remember what happened last time? It was too close and I won't do it again."

"It wasn't, we could have had years before we were in any real danger."

"Years to get used to being together then how could we have left?"

"I wouldn't sit there and watch you die."

"But you wouldn't have left me. That's why I had to."

"It's not fair," his voice was petulant and she smiled.

"What's not fair?"

"The way we were are, what kind of sick joke are we? Made to be together but deadly to each other when we are. I will not sit there and watch you fade away because I'm near you, but I can't stay away."

She looked up and her dark eyes searched his face. 

"Ryan you shouldn't have come here."

"How long did you really expect me to stay away?" She bit her lip and shrugged, with one thumb he pulled her lip from between her teeth and with a scolding look he tutted. "That's very distracting kid." He gazed down at her and grinned guiltily. "Oh god, I could just eat you up." She shivered in his lap and felt his growing against her thigh, she smiled cheekily and she stared up with her best attempt at a stern expression.

"Why Ryan, you are insatiable." He turned them quickly so she lay beneath him and held her hands above her head, she arched her back and wrapped her legs around his hips, his free hand cupped her breast and teased her nipple softly, it was such a change from his earlier onslaught and she moaned softly in pleasure. He trailed soft kisses down her neck before nipping gently at her collar bone, gently he eased into her, she hissed in a breath and stared up into his face almost jumping in shock when she saw the look he was giving her. He was staring at her intensely like he could never get enough of her, he let go of her wrists and she brought her hands up to rest on his stubbled cheeks.

"Promise you'll never leave me again," she shuddered at the desperate tone in his voice and dug her fingers into his soft blonde curls.

"Ryan, I can't promise that." 

He ceased the tortuous rhythm of his thrusts and she growled in frustration. "Ryan please don't stop." She tried to move her hips under him but he held her still pressing her back into the mattress. "Ryan." Her voice was plaintive and her eyes begged with him.

"Promise you'll never leave and I'll give you what you want."

"Ryan I can't."

"Then I'm done." He began to withdraw from her but she kept his inside her with her strong legs around his waist. "If you want me to carry on fucking you and make you cum then you have to promise me."

"Ryan. I can't."

"You don't want me to fuck you until you cum around me? You don't want to feel me inside you hard and deep?" He pressed into her to prove his point and she gasped sharply.

"Ryan. I. Can't." She panted against his neck and wrapped herself tighter around him. He thrust deeper again and she threw her head back and cried out. "Ok, ok. I won't leave again."

"Ever?"

Her head tossed back and forth on the soft silk sheets. "Ever."

"Promise?" He thrust once more, hard.

"Ah! I promise, just please don't make me wait anymore." He smiled and took her lips in a passionate kiss resuming his torturing, slow rhythm and she felt the wonderful pleasure building once more. Her whole body began to tremble around him and he grinned, slipping a hand between their bodies he found the small nub of her clitoris and circled it with a finger making her cry out.

"Cum with me Ryan, I want to feel you." The husk of her voice made him growl and he worked her clit harder and faster, finally the walls of her pussy clamped down on his hard length and she arched off the bed as she came, he snarled and dropped his head to her shoulder biting hard as he once again emptied himself inside her, the feeling of his pleasure inside her pushed her own orgasm higher and she screamed, her voice hoarse. Finally his muscles relaxed and he collapsed on top of her, softly kissing her shoulder he held her to his chest with one arm and moved back to the head of the bed, laying against the pillows he stretched out on his back with her draped across his chest, her legs straddling his own and her head resting on his shoulder.

He ran a lazy hand up and down her back and kissed the top of her head. "Stay with me tonight?"

She nodded and kissed his shoulder, the only movement she felt she had the strength to do.

As his eyes drifted closed he heard her soft voice. "I missed you Ryan."

"I missed you too baby."

She yawned softly and nestled closer against his chest, the next time she spoke she was almost asleep. "I love you."

He smiled, happier than he had been since the last time he had seen her. "I love you too kiddo." He listened to her soft innocent breathing as she drifted off to sleep in his arms. "I love you too."



Tormented Ch. 03



Saturday morning he, like every other morning since she has not let him cum, woke up early. In anticipation of his pending orgasm he cleaned the house again and began breakfast. She came down a short while later to the smell of bacon and eggs, a clean house and her desperate, frustrated man. "Sleep well?" she chuckled.

"Not at all, but I think I might be able to tonight." he said a little too confidently.

"Don't count you chickens before they hatch, dear." she watch as the air of confidence slid off his face like a drop of dew down a window. "Today is going to be a long and hard day for you." she said slowly and seductively as she drizzled honey into her tea. "Mmmm, we have until midnight tonight to build you up a bit more."

She started eating and without even looking back up at him she continued speaking. "It would be a shame to make it all this way and you ruin my surprise by doing something stupid." His heart began racing as his cock began to swell and she knew it. It was too easy sometimes. 

He picked his way though his meal, unable and unwilling to eat while she contently finished hers. She thanked him for it and watched him clean up and had him follow her to the den. She had him strip and sit in the chair by the computer. She then to his surprise started tying him down to the chair. His left leg was raised up under the chair and tied to his right wrist, which was pulled back and down, and then the same for the other two limbs. She then spun the chair around. "Wee." she said giggling. "Are you ready?" 

She stopped the chair and got down on her knees and began to stroke his stiffening shaft. "I have treat for you. If you're good it's a preview of things to come." Moving her head closer to him she stuck out her tongue and licked the head of his cock. Working slowly and methodically she went from licking the entire shaft to kissing it and then sucking it. Then back to kissing, then licking. She nibbled on the head and flicked her tongue across him perineum before engulfing him quickly and without warning. 

He gasped and tensed up as she held him in her mouth. She waited for him to relax and then slowly and gently drew him out stopping at the head. Holding his head with her teeth she swirled her tongue over it until she sensed he was at the edge.

She then stood up and turned him towards the computer and started up a video. "Here's your treat." It was a compilation of guys being stroked and teased right up to orgasm she told him. She turned up the volume and told him she would be back every ten minutes to make sure he was 'sufficiently stimulated'. He cock strained within its skin as he watched each guy beg and plead for release only to have the girl stop and let go just as he was cumming. 

He found himself fixated on each spurting dick and its milky discharge, his own cock leaking like a sieve. She, true to her word, would show up and match the pace and form of the current video. Jerking him just up to another frustrating edge and then leaving him again. On and on this went for how long he wasn't sure. He even lost count of the edges after ten, but then as suddenly as it all started it was over. The video stopped and she came in shortly there after and untied him. 

She gave him a chance to walk around and stretch his legs, get something to drink and use the bathroom. When he was ready she had him make her another cup of tea. She then cuffed his hands behind his back and grabbed his dick. She led him back to the den, his cock stiffening in her hand. Stroking him gently she smiled. "You know life has its ups and downs, dear." He had a puzzled look on his face as she pushed him down onto the couch. "And it's time you learned the difference."

He waited patiently while she clicked around on the computer and a soft ticking came from the speakers. She knelt down in front of him and spread a generous amount of lube on her hands and his stiff shaft. "Let's start with the ups." Keeping rhythm the metronome she started at the base of his cock and only slid her hand upwards. The sensation of only being stroked in one direction was maddening for him, but what made it worse was when the metronome changed speed. "I love this program." she said without looking up. "It's completely random."

He went to speak, but all that he could emit was a odd groan as the tempo changed from 40 bpm to 184 bpm. She taunted and mocked him as he writhed in his seat. The varying tempos and times magnified the effect of her up-strokes. It seemed to last forever; confused by her actions his cock refused to respond as it should have. Instead it slowly built up its energy, as if learning this new style of stimulation. He was praying for an edge, knowing she would stop as soon as he got there. Now it seemed even his cock was against him.

The metronome hit 200 bpm. He started bucking his hips trying desperately to get full strokes. "Stop that!" she slapped his cock. When she started again he was on the verge of whimpering. Suddenly she stopped and stood up. "I'm going to take a break, call me when you're soft." With that she walked out of the room and left him with the beat of the metronome in the background.

He sat for a while watching his dick go limp. It wasn't even lunch time and he was going mad. There was no way he was going to make it through the day. A short while later he called for her. He waited, then called again. After waiting for a while longer he heard her coming. She strode in wearing nothing but heels, stockings and a cream colored sheer camisole. He knew that look on her face. 

She sat down across from him on an ottoman. "Whew, all of this teasing got me so worked up I needed to rub one out." She traced her finger from her neck down to her cleavage and continuing to her wet, swollen mound. "If I give you ten minutes do you think you can get yourself hard again?" It wasn't so much a question, but more of a warning.

He nodded. She stood up. "Here let me help." She fished out a bullet vibe and rubber bands from the desk and secured just under his cock behind the head. She turned it on and handed the control to him. "You can change the speed to anything but off. I'll be back in ten minutes." Her finger found her pussy and then his lips. "See you soon."

He licked his lips, taking in her intoxicating scent. The effect of the bullet was almost immediate. Pre-cum started oozing out of his head. He turned up the dial and his shaft responded, gently swelling and pouring out more pre-cum. Soon he was at a point where his growing dick was inhibited by the bands holding the bullet. He turned the dial down and called for her.

When she returned she knelt down in front of him and took off the vibe. "Now we've learned about lifes ups, so let's learn about the 'downs' in life." She picked up the beat of the metronome at 144 bpm. His body tensed as of hit by lightning. He prayed the pace would soon change as his breathing increased. Unfortunately, the pace did change. However, it sped up to 184 bpm. Then just as he began to whimper, almost on the verge of tears, it changed again. This time down to 60 bpm. 

Once again he found himself trying to will himself to the edge. She continued relentlessly, following the tempo changes to the letter. Time had stopped for him. He was now at the center of his own sexual purgatory. Not even her teasing words helped, but her dared not tell her to stop. Suddenly, the beating stopped and she stood up. "Whew, that's quite a workout. Now I know why you liked to sit around beating your meat." She wiped the lube off her hands with a towel. "Let's say we break for lunch. Something light. How about you make us a salad?"

He struggled to concentrate on fixing them lunch. His balls ached like never before and he could feel the massive load that was backed up inside his flaccid shaft. He prayed that she would be lenient on him when the accident did happen, as he knew he wasn't going to make it much further. His fear of failure now consumed him.

As they sat and ate she fed off of his fears. "Just twelve more hours. Half way there." She patted his hand. "You're doing great." He nodded and thanked her. "Cheer up, You've come a long way, no pun intended, and it'll be all down hill by dinner time." She went back to eating, letting her words sink in. And they did. Quickly. What the hell did that mean he thought. What now? Downhill by sundown? I'll be lucky to make past my lunch. I'm finished. He tried to push his fears down, yet his dick began to swell as he thought of the things she could do. 

Her words snapped he back to the here and now. "Are you listening?" She was waving her hand at him. "I said clean up and meet me in the bedroom." She got up and walked off, her bare ass shaking under her sheer camisole. As he cleared the table he wondered how bad a year in chastity could be. The drops of pre-cum on his legs let him know.

Upon entering the bedroom she told him to lay down on the bed. Without a word she went about tying him down spread eagle and then mounting herself above his face. "How about some dessert?" He put his skilled tongue to work, hoping a quick orgasm would help his cause. However, before he could finish she rose up and moved down his body. She was surprised that he wasn't hard. "Doesn't pleasuring me with your mouth excite you?" 

"Yes, of course. I..."

"But what? You'd rather be jacking off?" she mocked him with a contorted face, feigning masturbation. "And to think I was going to surprise you by letting you come inside of me, right now, for being good." Of course she was lying, but he had no way of knowing. By sundown he would be ready for what she had planned. "Perhaps giving me an orgasm by licking my ass would be better."

He didn't even have a chance to answer before she flipped around and lowered herself down on him again. She knew he was obsessed with her ass. She only let him in there once. It's not that she was against it, but just didn't get her going and he was a bit rough. Secondly, he never brought it up again when she said he would have to let her fuck him first if he wanted it again. "Oh, that feels so good honey." she cooed. "You are really gifted with that tonuge of yours. I should let do this more often." His shaft began to swell and spill pre-cum as it grew. "Mmm, It seems somebody likes eating my ass." She tensed and squealed as his tongue bore its way into her.

She fingered herself as she rocked back and forth on his face. He was rock hard by now and she played with his head with her free hand, swirling his discharge around. Feeling it build inside her she gyrated wildly as she was overtaken by her orgasm. 

He gasped as he was finally able to breath freely, now that she collapsed next to him. Shakily she got up and walked to the door. "Would you still like to come inside of me?"

"Yes, please. I would."

"OK, if you're still hard when I get back you can." She closed the door behind her as she left.

After a few minutes he felt his erection waning, but luckily she came right back. "OK, ready?" she said as she got on the bed. Stroking him gently she, thankfully, made no mention of his semi-erect state. As soon as he was hard again she squatted above him and eased the head just into he wet pussy. "How's that feel?" He moaned as she moved ever so slightly. "Good, now fuck me." His head shot up in shock. "Let's go! Start fucking!" He began to buck his hips, pushing up as far as he could.

Managing about 20 strokes before collapsing and falling out of her he begged for her to let him continue. "Sure, but you only get five more chances. Remember, you're the one who rolled a six." She put him back in and smiled as he continued. He struggled against his restraints as he bucked. Once again at about 20 thrusts he collapsed. His back and legs sore from straining at such an odd angle, but his dick was all to willing now. Three more times she put him just inside of her and bounced just enough to get friction. And each time he bit his lip and started thrusting again, but lasting less and less each time.

Last time she said with a grin and evil gleam in her eyes. She slid him in, but this time lowered herself half way down. "Here this should to keep you from falling out." However, as soon as he started pushing up, she rose up also and when he relaxed she moved down giving him little friction and all effort. "Oh, come on!!!!" he shouted.

"Temper, temper. It would be just as easy to take you out and move on." He began thrusting again and once more she matched his movements. As soon as he stopped she began to slowly slide his cock in and out of her. He moaned and whimpered as she worked him over. "So, so good, isn't it? You can do it, fuck me. Come on." She stop at the head, just barely holding on to him. "Do it. Fuck me. Shoot your load deep inside me. A months worth of cum just waiting to be free." He let out a beastly grunt as he started up again, but after three pumps he fell out of her. 

"Oh, no. What happened?" she put on an exaggerated sad face and pouting lip. "Did your dick get you in trouble....again?" She sat back between his legs facing him with her legs spread wide. Picking up his glistening shaft with her fingertips she began to lightly stroke it. He began pleading with her to let him cum. "I'm not convinced." she said without even looking at him. She grabbed his dick tightly in one hand and drizzled a bit of lube on its head. She then placed her other palm flat on the head and began lightly swirling. Soon he began trembling. An intense heat radiated from his cock, spreading across his groin and out to his legs and abdomen.

"Arrgh! Stop it! Stop it!" he yelled, but she only pressed harder and swirled faster. 

She glared at him. "You don't tell me what to do!" 

She was going to stop, but she was mad at his outburst. Mad at the fact he threw her off her plan. He begged and pleaded. Anything he cried. She stopped. "Anything?" With that she circled her thumb and index finger around the base of his head and began squeezing and releasing very gently. She worked patiently as she spoke. "Do you really mean, anything or were you just saying anything to get me to stop?" 

He felt an edge building as he searched for an appropriate response. She waited. "That's what I thought." She grabbed his cock and began palming the head once again. He cried out again for her to stop. "Shut up. You had your chance to talk." She kept an eye on the second hand on the clock on the nightstand, using it to keep track of time, then resumed her two finger squeeze.

Only stopping to apply more lube she repeated this for about a dozen times. Finally stopping when she seen tears coming from his eyes. "Please, please. I mean it. Anything." 

"Are you bullshitting me again?"

"No, no. I'm not. Just stop. Please."

"I have an idea what I'd like. Are you ready to agree to them?.....Without question?"

"Yes." She grabbed his cock as if to palm it. "Yes. Yes. Without question!"

"First, this is my dick. You don't touch it, play with it, wash it or even think about it; unless you ask me first."

Yes, dear. Your dick, not mine."

"Second, after all of the loads shot into my mouth, I think you need to know what it was like. So from now on if you want to cum, you'll have to tidy up after yourself."

He swallowed hard. After all he'd never even considered tasting his own ejaculate. He nodded yes. "I hope you're ready for this, because if you disappoint me there will be hell to pay."

"Speaking of wanting to cum. Should I be generous enough to allow my cock release. I'll need something from you in return. Call it a gratuity if you will. I don't care what it is. However, if it is lacking it will affect the time you'll have to wait until I grant you another opportunity."

"Next I was thinking about that time you put my dick in my ass. I'll be wanting to return the favor one day." she paused. "Is everything clear so far?"

"Crystal."

"Tell me. Tell me everything you are willing to do so I can let some cum out of my cock." she chuckled. "I love saying that. My cock. I don't know why?"

"I will not do anything with your dick without permission. Should you allow your dick to cum I will clean up after it and as a token of my appreciation I will pay homage to your generosity. I also will offer you my ass, to do as you please, as thanks for allowing me to enter your ass with your cock."

She began to stroke him slowly, her grip firm. She poured more lube on his cock as she slid up and down his shaft. His breathing increased, yet she kept the same slow, maddening pace. "Mmm, my cock. I love playing with it. Now I see why you did it all the time. I just can't keep me hands off it. Do you want to spurt some cum?" 

"Yes, oh God yes!!"

He was grunting and groaning with frustration. A moth of frustration and desperation. He thought about what he had agreed to, but could not concern himself with that right now. He was going to cum. 

Up and down. Up and down. His legs were tensing underneath her and she knew it would be soon. Next his breathing became erratic and labored. "Tell me when my cock is going to cum. I want to be ready." She slowed down more, but now she angled her thumb upright so that it rubbed across the perineum and over the head.

That was the final straw. "Oh, oh, yes. I'm.....I'm...." was all he got out as she let go of his shaft. "Ugggggh!" He twitched once sending a nice bead up to his neck, but then the rest just drizzled out on to his stomach.

"Oh, please. Please don't. What the....?" he was panting and straining. "I'm not......I didn't......keep go...." his cock twitched and flopped. A few more beads worked their way up and dribbled down the shaft. "What is this? I still need to......"

"Need to what? Cum? You just did. Look. My cock just spurted some cum. Isn't that what I said?" She laughed. "You didn't think you were going to have a full and satisfying orgasm, did you? I mean I told you when you were watching my video that it was a preview of things to come." She laughed again. "You really didn't know that I was going to ruin your orgasm did you?" 

She stopped. "Wait. You didn't even know what a ruined orgasm was did you?" 

He shook his head. "Well, now you do. Oh, they are great. Cumming without pleasure and, this is the best part, before you know it you'll be hornier than you were before." she said giggling.

She scooped some of his cum up with her finger. "Now your turn." She brought it to his parted lips. He reluctantly complied as she worked the finger in and out. "Mmmmm, good boy." She continued until he was clean. "I hope you like it. Then again, if you don't we can arrange it so that you don't have to all that often."

By now he was completely soft. He felt his balls tightening and aching. "Now I have one last thing I'd like from you." 

He looked up to see her twirling something on her finger. "Here's your surprise! Just a little something to keep you honest." She then began fumbling with his cock and balls. He struggled to see but couldn't really tell. "It's called a chastity device, dear. I don't want you to get tempted when I'm not around. Besides, feeling it on you will remind you of whose cock that is."

She untied him and let him get up. "Now there is a necklace with a key on it in your nightstand. The key is for the cage that's protecting my cock. I would like you to present it to me as your acceptance of my demands." He felt his balls ache and tighten like never before. It was only a short while since she ruined him and already his dick was struggling against its confines.

He opened the draw. His hands had a slight tremble as he picked up the necklace. "Please accept this key as.....as a.....Please accept this key so that I will not be tempted to play with your cock without permission. I understand now that your pleasure is paramount in our relationship and I am willing to accept that you are better suited to manage your cock." She turned away from him and pulled her hair to the side. He clasped the necklace around her neck and she turn back to him.




Tormented Ch. 03



She dreamt of her mother that night, her long brown hair an exact replica of Lily's own and her dark eyes sparkled with love as she stared down at her young daughter. Her long skilled fingers plaited the small girls silken curls down her back and she pulled her onto her lap.

"Mumma, is Daddy coming back?" Her mother's eyes filled with tears and she shook her head. 

"No baby, he had to go away."

"Why?" The young girls voice was confused and filled with sadness.

"Because that's how we are built baby. You'll understand when you get older then you'll know why he had to leave us."

She jerked awake with a small gasp and looked around, the she was still in the four poster bed, the room was dark and she lay on her side under the silk sheets. Ryan's muscled figure was behind her his strong arm wrapped around her waist and his lips roamed over her neck.

"Bad dream baby?" She shook her head and linked her fingers with his over her stomach.

"I was dreaming about my mum." He kissed her neck sympathetically and pulled her back tighter against his body she sighed at the familiar feeling of his strong frame. He stroked her hair and she shuddered against him, her rounded ass pressed back against his groin and she felt his erection growing against her, he smiled and she began to grind her hips backwards against him. 

Flipping her onto her front he stretched out next to her and rubbed a large hand down her back, it dipped at the small of her back before running over the rounded curve of her butt, leaning down he whispered softly in her ear making her shudder.

"Don't move kid. I want to enjoy you." She nodded and placed her hands on the pillow either side of her head, moving to kneel he nudged her legs apart. Moving down the bed he ran his fingers lightly up the insides of each leg before gently nipping the backs of each ankle. She groaned, the muscles in her legs tensing and he trailed the small bites up the back on her left leg, across her backside and back down her right. He flipped her onto her back and leant over her as she gazed up at him a heated look in her dark eyes. He kissed her before pulling her to the edge of the bed so her legs hung over the side and knelt on the floor between them, he kissed the inside of each thigh and she moaned quietly in anticipation, he ran the tip of a finger down her slit before working it inside her, she moaned again, louder this time and her back arched. 

"Always so wet for me Lily," he looked up her body to find her resting on her elbows watching his every move. Her cheeks her flushed from pleasure and embarrassment at his words, her hair was messy and tousled, her lips bruised from his kisses and her eyes sparkling with lust. Holding her hips down to the bed with a forearm his tongue followed the sweep of his finger down her pussy collecting the sweet moisture, she groaned and fell back on the bed one arm thrown across her face. He laughed softly took another leisurely lick before circling her clit with the tip of his tongue, he tossed both of her long legs over his shoulders and as he continued his torture on her sensitive nub he slowly worked a finger into her. Slowly curling his finger up her hit the sensitive bundle of nerves inside her and she jerked groaning loudly, the arm that still rested across her hips pushed her further into the mattress and he began to work his tongue faster. Adding a second finger he worked them faster inside her, her fingers curled into the sheets and he heard the materiel rip under her strong grip. 

She cried out slightly as the pleasure began to build from her core and her back arched. Her muscles bunched and relaxed as she tried to thrust her hips against him, he had always been stronger than her and his arm kept her searching hips still on the bed.

"Ryan please. I want to cum." Her head tossed back and forth as his tongue pressed harder against her clit and she shuddered as her orgasm built. 

"Ryan!"

Finally he gave in and allowed her what she wanted, curling both his fingers up her put exquisite pleasure against the sweet spot inside her and a husky cry ripped from her throat as she came. Her whole body trembled as he continued his assault on her pussy with his talented tongue and fingers and she thrashed on the bed as her pleasure built even higher and her eyes slammed shut.

"Again, Lily. Let me feel you again." A series of harsh exclamations escaped her lips as his tongue went back it its work on her clit and her trembling increased violently. Her second orgasm seemed to ripped through her whole body and tensed like marble going completely still. He still didn't remove his tongue still moving against her almost aggressively as his fingers worked harder and faster in and out of her.

"Ryan!" He looked up and grinned.

"One more time baby. I want to taste you one more time." The returning to the job at hand he bit down on her clit and she screamed her voice breaking with pleasure before collapsing back onto the bed. He stood and stared down at her gorgeous form on the bed, her slim waist that flared perfectly to her rounded hips and ass, firm breasts at least a c-cup, long limbs and perfect skin. With a growl he lifted her into his arms and with her last bit of strength she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. Holding her to him with one arm he reached down and positioned the head of his thick cock at her opening, lowering her slowly he buried his length in her heat and groaned against her ear, holding her ass in both hands he lifted her slightly before letting her fall back onto his cock, she gasped and her eyes flew open and his grin turned feral. Her eyes were glowing red, her top lip curled into a snarl and he panted as he watched her canines elongate into small curved fangs. He kissed her and ran his tongue over the sharp points of her new fangs and shuddered in arousal, he gave himself over to the darkness inside him and felt his own fangs resting on his lower lip and began thrusting into her faster, her nails dug into his back and he felt the blood running from the deep gauges left there as her nails grew to sharp points. 

His hips worked faster and she cried out, he wrapped her hair in a fist and pulled harshly yanking her head back and baring her throat, he bit the juncture of her neck and shoulder and she exploded around his her legs tightening their hold around him and she cried out, he thrust into her three more times before cumming on a wild growl, his hand curled into her hip and he felt the bone shatter under his strong grip. She cried out again and her head fell forward onto his shoulder, her grip on his back relaxed and they waited catching their breath as her bone knitted back together and gingerly she rotated her hips testing their movement.

He growled softly and nipped her shoulder. "Don't tempt me baby, you're not ready to go again." When she lifted her head her eyes were back to their warm brown and her teeth had shrunk back to their perfect pearly white.

He gently lay her back on the bed and brushed her hair off her forehead before kissing her softly, laying next to her he stretched out and pulled her against his chest, she nestled against him and sighed.

"Go to sleep baby."

"I don't want to dream anymore."

"I'm here. It's going to be alright." He kissed her hair and listened as her breath evened out and she fell asleep. He stayed awake until the sun began to rise before his tiredness took over and he too drifted off to sleep.

*

He woke late the next day to the delicious smell of bacon and something sweet coming from the kitchen, sitting up he pulled a pair of jeans from the chest of drawers and dressed quickly. Walking through the apartment he felt an unfamiliar rush of happiness as he saw her stood at the stove, she wore his white shirt from the night before and when she reached up to get two plates from the cupboard he found she wore nothing underneath. She bent at the waist to put them onto the warming of the oven and he growled at the sight of the rounded butt and her soft pink pussy peeking from between her legs. She turned at the feral sound and her eyes heated.

"Morning baby." His voice was low as he tried to keep his lust in check and her cheeks coloured as she remembered the night before. Her dark eyes roamed over his exposed chest, his jeans hung from his hips and she bit her lip when she realised he hadn't put underwear on.

"Good morning. I made breakfast." She motioned him to sit at the breakfast bar and served him bacon, eggs, sausages and a stack of pancakes, pouring him a cup of coffee she sat opposite him and watched as he began to eat.

"I forgot how well you could cook." He had a drop of syrup on the corner of his mouth and she leant across the table and licked it away with a flick of her tongue. His eyes flashed and he reached across for her, she danced out of his reach and continued to eat her breakfast.

"Ryan look." She hung her head and refused to look at him. "Last night was amazing and I never wanted it to end, but I have to go. I can't stay it's too dangerous." He was completely silent, when she finally looked back up at him his eyes were furious and his fists were balled on the surface of the breakfast bar.

"No." His voice was a feral growl and she shrank away from him. "No you cannot do this to me again Lily, I. Will. Not. Let. You." Her fear was replaced with an anger of her own and she glared back at him.

"You won't let me? What the hell gives you the right to tell me what I can and can't do?" He stood and took a step around the table towards her, she countered his step keeping the distance between them.

"Lily, you are mine and there's no chance in hell that I am letting you go again."

"Hah, no chance in hell? Even hell couldn't stop me from leaving before and you have no fucking say in what I do now!"

"Don't start this fight little girl."

Her eyes narrowed and she growled softly. "Who the fuck are you to tell me what to do?!"

"I'm stronger than you."

"I'm faster." In a fraction of a second he was stood beside her his hand curled around her upper arm.

"Only by a bit."

She smiled nastily and looked at him through her long lashes. "Guess what baby," she reached on tiptoes to breath into his ear. "I'm stronger than I look." Bringing her fist back she connected with his chin and he fell back into the refrigerator, she vaulted the breakfast bar and dashed towards the large wooden front doors, before she could even leave the kitchen something heavy struck the back of her head and she stumbled falling to the ground. Turning she saw the shattered remains of a stool that had previously stood at the table where they had just shared breakfast, he was grinning at her from where he stood and cracked his knuckles.

"Game on baby." She let out an unholy scream and flew across the room, he caught her as she came through the air and swung her round slamming her in the metal front of the fridge, she snarled and while he still held her kicked out with both feet catching him in the stomach and sending him flying over the breakfast bar. Leaping onto the marble surface she crouched low, he had recovered quicker than she thought and grabbed her ankle, clenching his fist he felt the bone snap like a twig and she cursed loudly. Bringing her fist down hard on his elbow she smiled in satisfaction as she felt the bone break and she stumbled from the table, crawling towards the bedroom she felt her ankle heel and pushed herself back to her feet, wrapping both hands around one of the posts of the bed and pulled, it came away from the frame easily and she turned just as appeared in the doorway, she held the post like a baseball bat and swung it at him. He ducked and continued towards her, she swung at him again and with a thunderous growl he grabbed the other end and yanked it sharply pulling her towards him, she stumbled against his chest and he turned her so her back was against his chest, he took both her wrists in one large hand behind her back while the other arm wrapped around her waist lifting her from the floor. She kicked violently at him and let out another unearthly scream of anger.

"Put me down you fucker. You can't control what I do." He said nothing only held her tightly to him waiting for her to tire herself out, when she continued to fight he pushed her roughly onto the bed, he feet were still on the floor and she was bent at the waist her chest resting on the mattress, pushing his shirt over her backside he brought his palm down hard against her skin and she groaned in pain. He brought his hand down in another blistering smack and she jerked against the bed. She moaned softly and he smiled. He had her. Smoothing his hand over her skin he dipped down and gently worked a finger into her tight pussy with a groan.

"Even after all that. You're still wet for me."

She dropped her head forward so her hair covered her cheeks, that were flushed in embarrassment, and tried one more half-hearted struggle to free herself. Leaning down he put his mouth a fraction away from her ear and spoke in a breathy voice.

"Told you I was stronger."

"If it was a fair chase I could outrun you easy." Her voice was sulky, biting down gently on her earlobe he felt her shudder, she tossed her head back and her hair fell over his shoulder and down his bare back.

"You're an asshole."

"And you're perfect." His hand still held her wrists behind her back and he tugged slightly making her back arch and pressing her breasts into the mattress. "Perfect and mine."

"You don't own me Ryan." He brought his hand down on her butt again and she jumped biting back a cry of pain.

"No I don't, but I love you and can't stand to live without you." She relaxed and he let go of her wrists, pushing herself up she turned and studied him.

"I love you too Ryan. You know I do and I always will. I'm your m-" she stopped halfway through her thought and shook her head. His eyes widened as he realised what she had been about to say and he reached out to her but she took a step back.

"No, it's my turn." She reached out and with quick, dainty fingers undid the button and fly on his jeans and pushed them down his legs, he stepped out of them and kicked them to one side, she pressed herself against his naked form, kissing him softly she trailed her lips down his neck, over his chest, down his stomach until she reached his hard length. She grinned and flicked her tongue gently over of the tip and he groaned, she took him into her warm mouth and he groaned louder and pushed himself down her throat, he reached down and threaded his strong fingers through her hair, she bobbed up and down on his impressive length. His hand tightened in her hair and she moaned slightly at the sharp pain in her head, the vibrations sent waves of pleasure through him and he growled low in his throat. She felt a rush of pride at his reaction to her and moaned again revelling in his response. His muscles began to tense and he pulled her to her feet and plundered her mouth with his tongue, lifting her he placed her on the bed and stood between her legs. Stroking his hard cock he positioned himself at the entrance of her pussy and she groaned pushing her hips towards him, encouraging him to take her. Slowly he pushed the first couple of inches inside her feeling her tight heat envelope the head of his cock, pulling back he almost left her completely before sliding back in another couple of inches. He continued this slow torture until he was buried inside her and stilled for a moment. She was panting, her hand clutching the sheets behind her head and her eyes closed.

"Open your eyes. I want to see you." He waited until her dark eyes fluttered open once more before slowly pulling out of her until only the tip of his cock remained in her, with a quick thrust of his hips he slammed back into her and she cried out. With fire in her eyes she pushed herself off the bed and sent them both flying onto the floor, his cock never once left her body and she landed on top of him, with a feral grin on her face she leant down so their chests were flush together and licked his neck. Raising her hips as high as she could she let him slip out of her until once again only the head of his cock was inside her then massaging gently she lowered herself back down onto him.

"Fuck, Lily."

"No Ryan, you had your turn last night. Now it's my go." She took his hands and held them to the floor either side of his head, pushing her arms straight she began to rock her hips against him, the resulting friction against her sensitive clitoris made her eyes slam shut again. He watched as her pleasure built and built and finally she came undone her back arching and her mouth hanging open.

He moved his hands down to her hips and held her slightly off him then his mind blank to anything but his own release he thrust upwards violently dragging her with him to a shared orgasm. She slumped forward and fell onto his chest her breathing ragged and her cheeks flushed.

"Ryan you are an ass."

"Maybe but if you really wanted to leave you would have put up more of a fight."

She let out a small husky laugh and lazily kissed his shoulder. "You know I can't resist you."

They lay in silence for a few minutes and when he spoke again his voice was nervous. "I have a proposal for you." She made a small noise for him to continue and he lightly ran a hand up and down her back still covered in his white shirt. "Stay with me," she started to protest but he silenced her with a quick slap to her exposed ass. "Hush and listen you infuriating being. Stay with me for a week, just a week and let me show you what life with me would be like. If at the end of the week you still feel the same about this," he gestured to their two bodies, "then you can walk away and I promise I will do nothing to stop you."

She bit her lip as she contemplated what he had said. "Please Lily. One week that's all I'm asking for. One week where us being together isn't killing us, one week where we are no different than anyone else. One week where I can show you how much I love you." 

A tear ran down her cheek at his heartfelt plea and after a quick thought she nodded. "Ok. One week, but if at the end I have to leave to keep you safe, you'll understand? You won't try to stop me?"

"I'll even pack your bag for you, but you'll try it."

"I'd try anything for you." She looked into his eyes and saw the love there, the lump in her throat made it painful to swallow and she kissed him lingeringly. "I love you baby."

"I love you too," with a boyish grin on his handsome face he leapt to his feet keeping her against his chest. "Come on kid, we'll go pack you a bag. Then when we get back we'll tidy this up." 

He motioned to the destroyed room, she giggled and kissed his neck. Desire ran through him once again and he stared at her his eyes bright with lust. 

"But first." Dropping her on the bed he slipped the shirt from her shoulders and laid between her legs. "I'm going to show you what your week will consist of." His hips did a complicated roll against her and she moaned quietly.

"You're not going to make this easy on me are you?"

He shook his head and leant down and took a nipple into his warm mouth. "No, I'm going to make it very hard." He waggled his eyebrows suggestively and she giggled at his poor pun.

"Oh god what the hell have I gotten myself in for?"

"A very enjoyable few days baby, I guarantee."

And with that he dove on her and set about showing her exactly what he had planned for her for the next week.



Tormented Ch. 03



"It's beautiful honey. Thank you." She kissed him on the cheek. He was fixated on the small key nestled in her cleavage. She put her hand over it. "I'm so proud of you. Let's go out and celebrate." She leaned in and kissed him deeply, one hand fondling his balls and caged cock. "Surprise me with something exotic. Who knows, you just might get some playtime tonight."



Tormented Ch. 04



He pulled his convertible up to her apartment and stared at the white building. Standing from the car he came round to open her door, taking her hand he pulled her to her feet, wrapping an arm around her waist he dropped a kiss to her temple.

"This is nice."

"Yeah. Like I said I earned ok money when I was dancing, this was my reward." Her pretty face had lit up in a smile as she gazed on what she had worked for. "Come on. I'll pack a bag then maybe we can get some lunch before we go back?"

He motioned for her to go first and enjoyed the sway of her hips in her black dress, she unlocked the front doors and waved to the tall dark haired man sat behind a white marble desk in the lobby.

"Hi Luca."

"Miss Hunter. Sir." He nodded at the pair as they walked through the lobby to the lift, she pressed the button for the top floor and the doors slid smoothly closed.

"Miss Hunter?"

She looked at the floor and laughed softly. "Yeah, to the good people of California I am Lily Hunter. Moved from England after the tragic death of my parents and currently living off their money. It's a blessed life Ryan."

"I always liked you with the English accent," he leant down and whispered into her ear. "It's sexy."

She giggled and swatted him away just as the lift stopped and the doors opened, large white, wooden, double doors greeted them and she took a key from her small black bag. Stepping into the flat she kicked off her shoes and turned back to face him.

"Well, what do you think?" He stared around the spacious, open plan rooms, kitchen, living room and dining room all ran into each other, a door to his left stood open slightly showing the closet and another stood opposite but it was closed. A winding set of black stairs lead up to the second floor but what caught his attention was the back wall. It was made entirely of glass with another set of double doors, also glass, leading to balcony that looked out over the sparkling blue ocean.

"Its amazing. How much money did you make?"

"Enough. I'm going to go shower and change, there's wine or beer in the fridge. Make yourself comfy."

"I'd much rather join you in the shower." He slipped both arms around her small waist and leant down to kiss her. She swatted him away and moved towards the stairs.

"If you do then we'll never leave. I won't be long ok?" She hurried up the stairs and he watched her go a smug grin on his face, then pulling out his phone he dialled and began making arrangements for the rest of day.

She stood under the relaxing spray of the large shower head, the hot water soothed her muscles that still ached slightly from their vigorous use of the previous night, she washed her long hair before soaping her tight, lean body enjoying the feeling of her own hands upon her sensitive skin. She spread the bubbles across her firm breasts her fingers gently toying with her small pink nipples. They hardened under her touch and she gasped softly, sliding her hands down her flat stomach they dipped over her smooth mound and the pad of one finger found her clit. Biting her lip she choked back a groan, she dipped a finger inside herself and her back arched. As she worked her finger deeper into her pussy her free left hand came back to cup her breast, once more her fingers rolling the tender nipple around sending jolts of pleasure through her whole body. She added a second finger and began to move them even faster. The thumb of her right hand began to make quick circles on her small clit and her whole body began to tremble, her fingers pinched hard on her nipple and she cried out as her orgasm ripped through her body.

Slumping against the tiled wall she tried to control her breathing and ran her hands through her wet hair, washing the soap off her body, trying not to touch her over sensitive skin, she stepped from the large shower and wrapped herself in a fluffy white towel. Walking through to her room she sat at the large black vanity and brushed out her hair in front of the mirror, her make up consisted of subtle eyeliner and mascara, blush on her soft cheeks and pale pink lipstick that suited the soft arch of her mouth. She piled her hair into a messy bun on top of her head and pinned the stray curls from her face. From the huge walk in wardrobe she pulled a short silk sundress. White with pale pink cherry blossom print. Dressing in pale pink lace bra and panties, a suspender belt which she attached to skin coloured stockings and slid the dress over her head then stepped into pink heels. Quickly packing a suitcase she returned downstairs and cleared her throat. 

Ryan turned from where he stood staring out at the sea, his eyes widened when he saw her and a slow smile spread across his face as he took her in. 

"Wow." Her dress was short, the top tight against her body, the neckline high but it had no sleeves, the skirt flared at her hips reaching to mid-thigh, he took a step towards her but she held up a hand.

"No no. I know that look." She smiled and took the handle of her case once again. "Come on baby, treat me to lunch." He smiled at took her case from her and followed her back to the lift, the doors shut behind them and she turned to speak. 

She had no sooner opened her mouth when he covered it with his own and pushed her against the back wall, he parted her legs with a knee and pressed himself against her. His hands held her wrists and pinioned her hands either side of her head keeping her still while his tongue explore her mouth, she groaned and pressed her hips forwards feeling the hardening bulge in his jeans, grinding her hips unashamedly against him she growled and, forcing a wrist free, searched blindly for the button that would bring the lift to a stop. Before she could find it he stepped away and stood on the opposite side of the lift his eyes flashing.

"No no baby. I'm taking you to lunch remember?" Her eyes widened and she laughed breathlessly.

"Are you joking? You can't do that."

"You used to love it when I teased you." She smoothed her dress and scowled up at him.

"Ryan, I know I've said it before but you're an ass."

He winked and the doors slid open again, she stepped out into the lobby her heeled shoes tapping softly against the black marble floors, outside she looked around for his convertible but it had gone.

"Where's your car?" He pointed to a shining black Bentley parked on the street outside the building. "That's yours? What happened to your other one?"

"This one seemed more appropriate considering where we're going," he opened the door and allowed her to slide into the comfortable leather seat, a screen separated the front and back of the car leaving where she sat entirely private to the driver. "Sit tight baby. I'll be right back." He shut the door and she watched out of the window as a tall dark skinned man stood from the driver's seat and handed him a covered hanger, he disappeared back into the building and she stared out of the window after him. He emerged a few minutes later, he had changed into smart black trousers, a long sleeved white shirt and a black jacket. He had left the first few buttons of the shirt undone and she caught a glimpse of his muscled chest. The driver opened the door and he slid in next to her.

"Am I dressed ok for where we're going?" He nodded and took her chin between his thumb and index finger. 

"You're perfect kid, just relax." The car pulled away smoothly and when they were back on open roads he grinned mischievously. Quicker than even her eyes could follow he reached out and pulled her to sit on his lap, she let out a little shriek as her legs fell either side of thighs and automatically she reached down to pull her dress to cover herself.

"Ryan!"

"Shh, it's ok. No one can see us." Wrapping a strong arm around her waist he trapped her arms at her sides and widened his legs so that she was spread even further, he kissed her neck and his free hand moved to cup her breast through the silk of her dress. Her back arched pushing her breast harder against his palm and a tiny sigh escaped her plump lips, softly he pulled the band from her hair allowing the long curls to fall down her back before sweeping it over one shoulder. Kissing her neck again he ran his hand back down her body to her left calf, lightly he ran his fingertips up the back of her calf, then over her knee before slipping round to caress the inside of her thigh. He growled against her ear when he felt the silk of her stocking change to the silk of her skin and his hips thrust against her without him even thinking.

"You're wearing stockings?" His voice was low and sent a shiver down her spine as she nodded. "You fucking tease." He ran his hand up her other leg and pushed her dress up in the process where it bunched around her hips. As lightly as he could he trailed his fingernails over the exposed skin between stocking and panties and shivered chased themselves across her skin.

"Oh, Ryan please." Teasingly he ran his fingers over the front on her lace panties and growled as he felt her desire already soaking through.

"Oh god, you wet for me already baby?" She whimpered as his strong fingers ripped the materiel from her body, gently he teased her opening and she tensed against him.

"Ryan, please."

"Please what? " She groaned in frustration and he took pity on her sliding a finger deep inside her, her head fell back against his shoulder and her back arched pressing her round ass hard against his groin feeling the hardness of his erection through his trousers. He worked his finger in and out of her slowly enjoying her soft mewling noises of pleasure, he softly bit her neck and adding another finger keeping up his slow tantalizing rhythm. Feeling the tell-tale tightening of her muscles as she approached orgasm he stilled his fingers and enjoyed the frustrated growl that escaped her throat.

Slowly her trembles stopped and he began his torturous rhythm once again making her groan, this continued the whole car journey, he brought her to the brink of orgasm then just before she was tipped over the edge he would stop making her more and more frustrated. By the time the car stopped outside the restaurant she was panting heavily and her cheeks were burning from desire. He tipped her off her lap and she looked out the window.

"Where are we?"

"I'm taking you to lunch remember?" 

She scoffed in disbelief and folded her arms. "Really? You want me to go for lunch now? After what you just did."

He picked her panties off the floor of the car and tucked them into the pocket of his black jacket in an imitation of a handkerchief, her eyes widened and he smiled down at her. He kissed her lingeringly and took her hand. "Come on baby." The driver opened the door and he stepped from the car pulling her after him and slipping an arm around her waist.

The restaurant was intimate and dimly lit, the hostess, a young blonde woman, smiled shyly up and Ryan and fiddled with a lock of her bleached hair.

"Good afternoon Mr Johanson. Your usual table?" He nodded his eyes never leaving Lily as she looked round in wonder; the blonde took two menus and lead them through the restaurant to a small private room, a round table sat in the middle of the room and a plush sofa stood against a wall. He pulled out the chair and waited for Lily to sit then nipped her shoulder; she jumped at the contact and snuck a glance at the blonde who was looking at her with barely contained distain.

"Tell the chef we'll have my usual please." His eyes were burning dangerously as he looked at the blonde and he reached across to take Lily's hand in his. "That's all." The blonde jumped and nodded.

"Sorry sir. I'll go and tell the chef." She scuttled from the room leaving Ryan and Lily alone again.

"Well, she doesn't like me." Ryan laughed and stroked her palm, her already sensitive skin reacted quickly to his touch and her breathing sped up, he took his hand away.

"Don't worry about her." A red haired waitress brought the wine and smiled at Ryan.

"Ry, haven't seen you in here for a while," she turned and her smiled widened as she saw Lily. "Is this her?" He nodded with an endearing look of pride on his face and she reached down to take Lily's hand in her own. "Hi, I'm Lucy. Ryan's told me so much about you." Lucy poured them each a glass of wine before placing the bottle in a bucket of ice, a small frown passed over Lily's face and she lifted her head her small nose twitching as she scented the air. The frown was replaced with a smile and her eyes glowed at the red head. "I'll be back in a few minutes with your food guys, lovely to finally meet you Lily." Then still with a smile on her pretty face she turned and left the room.

"Well she was just the sweetest thing." Lily turned back to Ryan and rested her chin on her hands. "What is she?"

"What do you mean?" he cocked his head to the side and studied her.

"You know what I mean, she's different. What is she?"

"She's an elf."

"An elf?!" Her eyes widened. "I thought they were all gone."

"Most of them are, only a couple stayed after the war."

"Wow, she must be lonely."

"Well she knows me and now you and elves have a much easier time fitting in with humans so she has people. Just none of her people."

"When did you meet her?"

"I've known her for years, this is just the longest time we've ever been in the same place together."

"I've never met an elf before. She's beautiful."

The blond returned bringing their food and shot another look of hatred at Lily. "Enjoy your meal sir." She turned on her heels and stormed from the room, Lily watched her leave with a sly smile on her face. 

"She's hot."

Ryan choked on the bite of Walleye fish. "Excuse me?"

She shrugged her eyes wide and innocent. "Well like you haven't noticed, good tits, great ass and I expect quite pretty when she doesn't look like someone wiped shit under her nose."

"You're dangerous little girl." His voice was a low growl and her eyes flashed with arousal. "Eat. You're going to need your strength for what I'm going to do to you when we get back." She shivered and looked back down at her food. They talked as they ate and when the fish was gone he poured another glass of wine and slid it to her.

"So does Lucy know? About us?" 

He took a large sip of wine and contemplated her over the rim of the glass. "What do you mean?"

"Does she know what we are? What happens when we're together?"

-

He thought back to the day Lucy had first come over, they had met through mutual friends almost fifteen years ago during a time when Lily had been gone. They had been sat on his sofa with a beer and she had leaned over and picked up a framed photo.

"Who's this?"

"Lily."

The young elf had smiled up at him. "She's beautiful. You're a lucky guy."

"Yeah I am. I just wish I knew where she was."

"Chin up kid you'll find her." She chucked him under the chin and her eyes widened in horror, almost dropping her beer on the floor she turned to face him fully and placed both her hands on his stubbled cheeks. In front of her eyes he changed, his pupils turned red then seemed to bleed out until no iris or white could be seen, his teeth elongated into curved fangs, his skin lightening until it was almost transparent and shone with an eerie glow, his blonde ringlets changes to a glossy black, his nails curved into sharp, black claws but what drew her attention where the huge black wings that had burst from his shoulder blades, the feathers were black and glossy and shone in the sun coming through the window.

"Oh my god." She took her hands from his face and moved back slightly. "You're an angel?"

"Demon. My parents were on the wrong side of war and were banished."

"The war?"

He shook his head and leant back against the sofa. "It's a long story."

She nodded at the photo and looked sadly at the beautiful girl in the frame. "Is she a...is she like you?"

"Yeah."

"I heard stories about the fallen. Is it true about your mates?"

"Both angels and the fallen age as humans for the first sixteen years of life, then from our sixteenth birthday we age one year for every hundred human years."

"So how old are you?"

"Six hundred and fifty."

"Wow, so twenty-two to them."

He nodded. "We are made in pairs and when we find our pair we mate for life. We never love another. When angels meet their mate they stop aging, become immortal and stay that age forever, they can live for eternity with their mate."

"What happens when a fallen finds their mate?"

"We're hunted by the angels, they can only find us when we're together. It's a cruel punishment really, we can't live without each other but together we're in danger so we are forced to make a choice. Live our lives with our mates and condemn them or live our lives alone in the worse pain there is."

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry." She glanced at Lily's picture again. "Is that her? Is she you mate?" He nodded. "And you have to stay away from her to keep her alive?" He nodded again and she threw her arms around his neck. "That is the most heartbreaking thing I have ever heard. I'm so sorry."

-

He took another sip of wine and nodded. "Yeah she knows what we are and what happens to us."

She ran her fingers over the back of his palm and stared into his green eyes. "Now I have a question for you." His eyes flashed and she closed her eyes.

"Am I going to like this Ryan?"

"At the apartment earlier you were going to say something to me." Her eyes widened in a moment of horror before she carefully masked it. "You were going to call me something."

"I don't think so."

"Yes Lily, you were going to call me something. What was it?"

She hung her head and thought back to that morning, she had been about to call him her mate. She had never voiced the words before. "You know what I was going to say."

"I want to hear you say it."

"Ryan please don't." He took her glass and placed it on the table before swinging her into his arms, he moved to the sofa and sat with her straddling his lap facing him.

"I will hear you say it poppet," she smiled and leant her head on his broad shoulder.

"No one has called me that in so long." He smoothed his hands down her back and cupped the round cheeks of her ass, pulling her intimately to him to feel the hardening length of his cock against the juncture of her thighs. Slowly he rocked her back and forth and soon she was panting her sweet breath hot against his neck, moving one hand round to rest on her knee he lightly teased circles on her skin and she shuddered.

"Ryan, not here someone could come in."

He ignored her and moved his hand up her leg until he softly caressed her thigh and she gasped, his fingers crept higher stroking her soft skin until he finally slid his thumb across her small clit, her head snapped up off his shoulder and she groaned softly.

"Ryan." Her hands came up to clasp the lapels of his jacket and she pressed her hips against his hand, he slipped a finger inside her and groaned at her tight heat, he curled his finger inside her and she gasped her head falling back sending her hair tumbling down her back. Once again the tightening of her muscles forewarned her orgasm and he ceased his movements making her growl in frustration.

"What do you want baby?"

"Please Ryan, let me cum."

"Here? In a restaurant where anyone can come in?"

"Ryan," He stood and placed her back on the floor, she groaned and placed her hands on her hips. "You're enjoying this too much." 

He winked and ushered her out of the room, through the restaurant and back into the waiting car. Her skin still felt sensitive as if one touch would send her over the edge, he kept his distance from her but the look in his eyes held unspoken promises of what was to come and she shivered at the lust bright in his green eyes. A deep throbbing started at the apex of her thighs and she crossed her legs trying to ease the feeling. 




Tormented Ch. 04



"Ryan," she started to slide across the seat towards him but he shook his head, still not saying a word. The ride went slowly their eyes locked together the entire time, her hands twisted together in her lap and she fidgeted slightly. Finally they pulled up outside his building and the driver came round to open the door, Ryan stepped from the car first leaving the driver to help Lily out, the feel of skin against her own made her shiver and she blushed. He smiled at her and dipped his head slightly.

She hurried after Ryan following him up the stairs to the top floor flat. The minute she walked through the door he grabbed her waist and lifted her into his arms, he wrapped her legs around his waist and with one hand undid the button and zip on his trousers, pulling down his boxers slightly he slammed into her tight pussy and groaned at the feel of her wet heat clamping round his length as her orgasm ripped through her. She tossed her head back and her back arched.

"Oh god Ryan!" He grinned and slowly lowered her to the floor.

"Is that better baby?" He undressed her slowly leaving her in only her suspender belt and stockings, she caught her breath her eyes staring up at him as he shrugged out of his jacket and shirt and kicked his trousers and boxers away. "Glad I made you wait?" He leant down to rest on his elbows and kissed her trembling lips. "Does it feel better poppet?"

"Is that why you didn't touch me the whole way home?"

He nodded and kissed her neck. With a slow thrust of his hips he once again embedded himself in her tight pussy, she hissed in a breath and wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders, with slow deliberate thrusts he began to move groaning at the feel of her. Her knees came up to hug his hips pulling him deeper and he kissed her neck before biting her collar bone lightly, she rolled them and held him down with her hands on his muscled chest. His large hands grabbed her hips and he began to move her on his length. She rolled her hips before dropping her chest to his and raising his hips as high as they could go leaving only the tip of his cock inside her before slowly sliding back down, with his hands still on her hips he attempted to speed up her movements but she shook her head a naughty gleam in her dark eyes.

"Oh no Ryan, you've been teasing me all day," her hips did a complicated roll against him and his eyes closed in pleasure, she leant and whispered seductively into his ear. "Now it's my turn." She straightened her back and began to rock her hips against him, the movement made his cock rub against the sensitive spot inside her and she moaned softly. His hands tightened his hold on her and he grit his teeth.

"Lily." She grinned and sped up the grinding of her hips.

"Not as fun when you're on the other end of the teasing is it baby?" moving her hips in a circular movement she leant back resting her hands on his strong thighs, his eyes opened and her stared down at the sight of his thick cock disappearing into her as she fucked herself on him. A tingling at the base of his spine signalled his impending release and he growled as his pleasure grew, she bounced faster, up and down on him her hair falling down her back in a silken wave.

"Fuck, Lily. I'm going to cum." Slowly her head came back until she looked into his green eyes, her lips curved and she worked her hips faster on him, her hand came up to tangled her fingers in her long hair, she bounced faster and her muscles began to tremble as her own orgasm built. His grip tightened further still and his head tossed back and he groaned through gritted teeth, his back arched lifting his hips off the floor taking her with him as he jetted rope after rope of cum into her tight pussy, her fingers tightened in her hair and she cried out as she came. 

Falling forward onto his chest she tried to calm her frantic breathing and giggled softly against his broad shoulder. 

"Holy shit."

He lifted a lazy hand and stroked her back. "God Lily, if this is what happens when I tease you I should do it more often," he sat up taking her with him and slowly stood testing his legs, leading her through the apartment he took her to his bedroom, they climbed onto the bed and slid under the soft sheets.

She looked around and frowned. "How did everything get so clean, we broke the bed."

"Lucy helped me out, she cleans up when things get a bit demonic around here." She shook her head at his choice of words and curled against his side, he lay on his back and she threaded one leg with his her head resting on his hard muscled chest, he leant down and kissed her forehead.

They must have dozed because he dreamed, he dreamed of the day they had first met. It had been a sunny day almost two hundred years ago, she had been sat in on the porch of her large manor house when he had first seen her, he had been with two others, both humans. She was posing as the daughter of a wealthy couple and the three knew they would pay handsomely if she were in danger. He had snuck into the house through an open window around the side of the house while the other two attempted to ambush her. 

He waited inside for them to bring her to him when he heard a terrified yell. Frowning he waited for the two to arrive but when the door to the parlour finally opened she stood in the doorway alone. She wore a white and blue gingham checked dress the front now stained with blood that dripped from her plump lips. Her eyes glowed red at him and her hands were curled into claws, she laughed nastily at him and took a step towards him.

"You know, I liked living here. It's going to be a pain to find another family so willing to take me in and even harder to find one with this kind of money and for that you'll die slowly."

She leapt at him her knees hugging his hips and wrapped her fingers around his throat while her other hand grasped his white shirt. Her eyes searched his face and almost softened. "Shame, you're one of the prettiest I've ever had to do this to." With a cunning grin he turned them slamming her against the wall and tangled her long hair in a hand holding both her wrists in his free hand.

"Funny, I was going to say the same about you poppet." She growled and kicked him away from her.

"Don't call me poppet." She struck out with a fist and caught him on the side of his face sending him flying across the room, then with a loud scream she followed knocking him to the floor and landing on his chest. He retaliated with a punch to her stomach followed quickly by another to her cheek then turning them he held her hands above her head and stared at her breathing heavily.

"What are you?" Her voice was breathy and her eyes had returned to their normal brown as they searched his face in confusion. "No one has ever been able to beat me before."

"As with me poppet. You're fallen."

She gasped and struggled trying to get away from him. "How do you know about the fallen?" again she searched his handsome face before finally it dawn on her. "You?"

"What's your name?" She shook her head and kicked him off her.

"Stay away from me. I know what you are." Then before he could do anything she was gone running faster than he could see, standing he shook his head confused and thought on the strange girl he hoped to see again.

-

"You knew before me." She stirred slightly in her sleep but didn't wake. "You knew that you were my mate before I did. That's why you ran." Still asleep she smiled and nestled even closer to his side. "You knew and ran to save me." A rush of love so large it was almost painful hit him and he pulled her even closer as though terrified she would disappear.

*

When she awoke the sky was a deep pink as the sun began to set and she stretched, she was alone in the bed and she looked around confused. Standing she frowned when she saw a floor length blue dress hanging on the door of the wardrobe, a pair of blue heeled shoes sat on the floor under the hanging dress. The door to his en suite bathroom stood open and she walked through, stepping into the shower she quickly washed her body then wrapping herself in a soft white towel she padded back through to the bedroom and dried herself quickly. Her suitcase stood in the corner of the room and she dug through it until she found a black corset and knickers made of frothy lace, stepping into the dress she slid the zipper up at the side and slipped her feet into the shoes, then sitting at the dresser she tied her hair in a ponytail that fell down her back and quickly lined her eyes in black kohl and added mascara to her already long lashes, red lipstick and a pearl necklace and matching earring finished her ensemble and she walked from the room following the smell of food from the dining room. 

Ryan stood at the door to the room and smiled at her. He had changed into a grey suit, white shirt and black tie and looked delicious. He took her hand and brushed a kiss over her knuckles.

"You look beautiful poppet."

"You don't look too bad yourself baby," she looked around him into the dining room and gasped. The room was softly lit by candles scattered all around, two places were set and a tall blonde man in a black suit stood by the table, a vase full of blue roses stood proudly in the middle of the table and she turned back to him a smile on her pretty face. 

"Did you do all of this?" He nodded. "It's beautiful Ryan."

He lead her to one of the seats and pulled out the chair, when she sat he tucked her into the table and slid into the spare place, the blonde waiter pulled a bottle of champagne from the silver ice bucket and poured them each a glass, then he disappeared into the kitchen. She stared after him then turned back to Ryan with a questioning look.

"Who was that?"

"That was Daniel, he helped out the Johanson's when they had dinner parties so I called in his services for the night." He tapped his glass against hers and sipped the crisp champagne.

The waiter came back into the room carrying two bowls, he placed them on the table before going back to the kitchen, she picked up a spoon and took a mouthful of the creamy soup closing her eyes.

"Wow, this is amazing."

He smiled and began to eat from his own bowl, she took another mouthful and cocked her head to the side.

"Who made this?"

"Lucy, she cooks when it's important and I thought I would treat you tonight."

"She's amazing." They finished the soup and she picked up her glass while the bowls were cleared away.

"You've really taken to the privileged lifestyle Ryan. It suits you." She took another sip and reached across to run her fingers over the back of his palm. "You deserve it."

"And you deserve to be treated like this every day of your life, that's what I am going to prove to you while you're here."

"Ry, being with you is the only thing that I've ever wanted, you don't need to do all this."

"I want to. Now let me do whatever I can to convince you to stay."

She opened her mouth to argue again but closed it when she saw the determined look in his eyes. "Ok, treat me like a princess." She winked as Daniel came back into the room, he placed a plate of lobster in front of the two of them before once again leaving them alone. She poured some of the melted butter over the white meat before digging it out and popping it in her mouth.

"Oh my god! That girl is a fucking wonder," she took another huge bite and the butter ran down her chin. He laughed softly and wiped it away with his thumb then licking it from his skin he began to eat.

She didn't say a word until she was done then leant back in her seat a huge smile on her face. 

"If this week is going to consist of food this good and the sex as amazing as it's been so far it's going to be very hard to leave." He winked as he refilled their glasses.

"That was the idea poppet." The final course was brought out, a silver platter piled high with plump red strawberries and a deep bowl filled it warm melted chocolate.

She laughed softly and twirled a lock of hair from her ponytail around her fingers. "Very good Ryan. Just like our first date."

He grinned. "I don't know what you're talking about. I just know you like them."

She stuck her tongue out and picked up a juicy strawberry and dipped it into the chocolate, biting down she smiled as a drip of melted sweetness escaped the corner of her mouth and she licked it away with a flick of her tongue. Taking another she soaked it in chocolate and placed it in his mouth. Together they finished their dessert taking turns feed each other and laughing. When they were done and the champagne was finished he took her hand and lead her through to the living room, sitting on the soft leather sofa he poured them each a large glass of whisky and sat looking at her. Sh took a sip and frown at him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Her voice held a trace of laughter as she spoke and she smiled up at him.

"Like what?"

"Don't be cute Ryan you know what I'm talking about." He finished his drink and pulled her onto his lap.

"I looking at you like this because I will never get enough of you." He kissed her and ran his hand up her thigh through the slit up the side of her dress, deepening the kiss he found the zipper and quickly removed her dress. His eyes flashed when he saw her black corset and his large hands spread across her waist his thumbs almost touching. "Fuck Lily," he kissed her again. "You really are pushing it poppet." He tipped her off his lap onto the sofa and lay between her legs, sliding his hand down her body he teased the edge of her panties she arched her back and stared up at him. 

Slipping a hand into the lace of her underwear he found her clit with one finger and she moaned, he circled her small nub slowly then dipped one finger inside her. A husky cry escaped her throat and her fingers curled into the front of his shirt, she thrust her hips against his hand and groaned.

"Ryan, more please." He added another finger and circled them round inside her until she trembled, removing his hand he shrugged off his jacket and threw his tie to the floor the unbuttoning his trouser he shoved them down along with his boxers. Pushing the soaked crotch of her panties to the side he teased her opening with the head of his thick cock and revelled in her excited moan, slowly pushed his way into her tight pussy until he was buried to the hilt before slowly drawing back then slamming into her. She cried out again and her fingers gripped his shirt harder, her sharp nails leaving little rips in the fabric, he slid his arms under her cradling her head in his large hands and kissed her lips softly.

Rolling his hips in a circular motion he smiled as her legs came to wrap around his waist, she still wore her blue shoes and the heels bit into his back slightly. He kissed her again tasting the sweetness of the chocolate and strawberries and the crispness of the champagne. Ceasing his movements he stood pulling her to her feet.

"Get in the bedroom, Daniel doesn't want to see what I'm about to do to you."

Her eyes widened in horror and she looked around. 

"Don't worry poppet he isn't watching but I don't want him to walk in. if you are not in my bedroom in ten seconds I swear to god." He slapped her rounded ass hard and she shriek and hurried from the living room back to the sanctuary of his dimly lit bedroom. Kicking off her shoes she clambered onto the bed letting out another shriek when his hand wrapped around her ankle. He joined her on the bed and pulling her to her hands and knees moved behind her. 

He rubbed the head of his cock up then down her slit before slipping forward to rub against her sensitive clit she hissed in a breath and pressed her hips back, wordlessly begging him to enter her again. In one hard thrust he was once again buried inside her tight pussy, his hands gripped her hips and he began to thrust against her making her cry out every time his huge length bumped against her cervix creating a beautifully erotic mix of pleasure and pain. She tossed her head back and groaned as she felt the tell-tale signs of her impending orgasm and he sped up his movements his own orgasm building.

Reaching forward he twisted her ponytail around one hand and pounded harder into her ripping an even louder cry from her throat as he hit against her cervix harder and her muscles began to tremble. Her orgasm ripped through her body making the walls of her tight pussy massage his cock pushing him to his own release and he groaned as he jetted into her.

Exhausted they collapsed onto the bed, he rolled off her and they lay next to each other him on his back her on her front her arms cushioning her head as she let out a small laugh.

"Wow, that was amazing," he grinned and turned on his side, unlacing her corset he peeled it from her body and went to the dresser, fishing out a t-shirt and pair of pyjama bottoms he threw her the top and stepped into the trousers that hung beautifully off his hips. When she was dressed he pulled her under the covers with him and kissed her lingeringly.

"First day baby, tomorrow's Monday and I have plans for you."

"More of that?" She motioned to the spot where he had just taken her and then through to the living room. 

He pulled her closer to his side and kissed her again his tongue stroking against her own and she shuddered against him. "You have seven days to find out baby. Sleep now."

She smiled and closed her eyes. "Good night Ryan."

"Night night poppet."



Tormented Ch. 05



The next morning he again woke to an empty bed. The beautiful Californian sun streamed through the window warming his room and he stretched feeling for her. Sitting up he looked around the room frowning when he saw no sign of her, panic lodged itself in his chest until he saw the closet door stood open, checking inside he smiled at the sight of her clothes hanging alongside his and walked from the room to find his mate. 

Stopping in the kitchen he looked around at the blender stood on the counter along with an empty glass, sniffing the contents of the blender he smiled again. Iced coffee. His favourite, he poured himself a glass and looked around, his balcony stood off to the side of the kitchen through glass doors in the living room. She was stretched out on a sun lounger in a floral patterned two piece bikini, dark sunglasses shaded her eyes and her own drink stood on the table next to her chair. As he watched she stretched pulling all the muscles in her small body tight.

"Morning poppet." She smiled and turned onto her front to look at him, pushing her glasses onto her head she gazed up at him.

"Morning baby," she pulled on his wrist until he bent and she caught his lips in a kiss, he tucked a curl behind her ear then sat on the second lounger, she turned onto her back again and tipped her glasses back down to rest on her nose. "It's really beautiful out here."

He nodded. "Part of the reason I chose the Johanson's." He reached across and took hold of her hand and for the next couple of hours they lay together in the sun talking about meaningless things that any normal couples would. When the sun hit the highest point in the sky he leant over and nudged her gently.

"Come on poppet I'm starving," standing he pulled her to her feet and lead her back inside. Standing in the kitchen she moved to the sink and poured herself a glass of icy water, as she drank a drop fell from the corner of her mouth and rolled over her chest then down between her breasts. His eyes followed its progress over her soft skin and he felt his cock hardening as he watched, snatching the glass from her hand he pushed her against the counter and pressed himself against her small frame, he crushed his lips against hers and thrust once against her making her gasp.

"I thought you were hungry?" Her voice was teasing and her eyes sparkled, his lips curved in a smile and he lifted her effortlessly onto the counter, pulling her forward he knelt in front of her and nudged her legs apart, kissing up her leg from ankle to thigh he gently bit her hip then moved his way down her other leg.

She propped herself on her elbows to stare down at him and as their eyes met she felt a soft, burning heat start in her stomach. It was something she had never felt before but she feared she knew what it was. Before she could think on it too much he undid the ties of her bikini bottoms and threw them to the side before running his tongue along her slit making her groan, her eyes closing and her head falling back, he took another lick and enjoyed the shiver that ran through her body. 

"Always so wet for me baby." Sliding his arms under her hips he wrapped his hands around her abdomen and pulled her closer to his hungry mouth, flicking his tongue across her clit he sucked on it briefly before moving down to dip his tongue inside her.

"Oh." She moaned and lay back on the counter her hands coming up to grab her hair in fists and her back arching. He started up a steady rhythm with his tongue, in and out, bringing another series of moans from her throat, her hands left her hair coming to grab fistfuls of his blonde curls and tugged trying to get him closer. Slowly he worked one finger into her and circled it round stroking the silken walls of her pussy, his tongue moved to her clit and circled round with the tip of his tongue.

Her cries quickened and her hands returned to her own hair as he added a second finger and worked them in and out listening to the quickening of her breathing. He pulled her leg up until her small foot rested on his shoulder opening her up further to him, he hooked the other over his free shoulder and pulled her even closer to his wonderful mouth.

"Oh god. Ryan, I'm going to cum." Her back arched and she cried out his name as her orgasm ripped through her, slumping back on the counter she tried to steady her breathing, he stood her legs slipping from his shoulders to fall at his sides, bending at the waist, he leant over her and slipped his tongue into her warm mouth allowing her to taste herself.

He hooked his thumbs into the top of his pyjama trousers and pushed them to the floor before kicking them away, she pushed her hips against his feeling the throbbing length of his cock against her. He deepened the kiss holding her tightly to him as through terrified if he let go she would disappear, he undid her bikini top and it joined the pile of clothes on the floor. Straightening he took hold of her hips in his large hands and gently teased her entrance with the head of his cock, she attempted to pull him into her with her legs around his hips but he shook his head.

"Let me enjoy you baby."

He slowly entered her and groaned at the increasingly familiar feeling of her tight pussy massaging his length, slowly he began to move inside her rolling his hips in a rhythm that he knew drove her wild. A husky cry was pulled from her throat and she pushed herself up off the counter to stare into his green eyes.

Her skin was soft and warm from the sun and felt like silk under his fingers, he increased the pace of his thrusts slightly, slipping an arm around her back he pulled her chest flush to his and his other hand moving down to grip her thigh he pulled her legs tighter around him. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and raked her nails down his back. He thrust harder groaning at the feel of her wrapped around him, lifting her into his arms he placed her on the floor and turned until she was bent over the counter, wrapping her hair around his hand he pulled her head back until her throat was bared to him and bit down hard on the soft skin there. She cried out as her blood flowed from the wound and she tilted her head to give him better access to her vein, he swallowed the sweet red liquid then slammed back into her tight pussy and began thrusting frantically, the head of his cock hit against her cervix sending her back to that state of pleasure and pain and her muscles began to tremble.

He felt his orgasm building and only had time to whisper a hoarse warning before thrusting one last time and exploding inside her, his release triggered her own and she came hard around him her legs trembling and her breath coming in short pants. When she relaxed he slid to the floor taking her with him to curl on his lap and he kissed her hair before placing another on her trembling lips.

"Well kid, I was thinking we could go out to lunch but after that I think we should stay as close to a bed as possible." Kissing the quickly fading mark on her neck he tucked an unruly curl behind her ear "What do you say to ordering take out and spending the day naked?"

She giggled softly and tilted her head up to look at him. "That sounds perfect." He stood and carried her through to the bedroom, the sheets were still a mess from the previous night and the sun had warmed the room, he placed her gently on the bed and grabbed his phone from the bedside table. They sat facing each other, her resting against the pillows him with his back against the post. 

"Chinese ok with you?" She nodded and then waited as he placed the order.

"Name? Ryan Johanson." He thanked them then hung up. "About ten minutes."

"Wow, that's fast."

"The joys of being a Johanson," his eyes gleamed and he flashed her a wicked smile. "I wonder what I can do in ten minutes." He grabbed her ankles and pulled her towards him, he settled himself between her legs and slid into her slick, welcoming heat. Thrusting hard into her with a primal rhythm he groaned, he was rough with her. He fucked her. There was no whispered words, no caring caresses, just the blinding heat that grew between them making her scream as her orgasm gripped her body, he followed muffling his groan against her shoulder.

They lay in companionable silence until the bell rang making them both jump, she giggle and rolled him off her. "I'll go baby," she stood and wrapped herself in a soft blanket that clung to her curves, she grabbed his wallet from the side table and leant down to kiss him. She opened the door and smiled at the look on the face of the young man, he had tousled black hair and bright blue eyes which were wide as he stared at her scantily clad body.

"Umm, order for Johanson?"

"Yeah that's us," she tucked herself more securely into the blanket and opened the wallet. "How much do we owe you."

He shook his head and smiled, he had a dimple in his left cheek and he looked even more handsome. 

"It's on us ma'am." He handed her the bag with a wink and she smiled despite herself.

"Thanks," he started down the corridor but turned when she called after him. "Hey what's your name?"

"Aiden, nice to meet you Lily." Then he was gone. She frowned at his retreating back then shut the door and returned to his bed.

"Ry? The delivery guy knew my name have you met him before?"

His smooth brow crease in confusion and shook his head. "No, normally they send a girl here." 

She shrugged and crawled back to the pillows. Together they unloaded the white card boxes from the bag and two pairs of chopsticks. She picked up a pair and chose a box of spicy beef, breaking them apart she expertly popped the food in her mouth and chewed. He watched her then picking up the second pair of chopsticks he attempted to copy her movements, she laughed watching his growing frustration.

"Come here," she moved closer to him and draped her legs over his, taking his hand in both her own she positioned the chopsticks in his fingers. 

"There now push down with this finger." She watched as he picked up a piece of chicken and with a childlike glee he put it in his mouth, she laughed at the look on his face and clapped.

"I have never been able to do that, where did you learn?" 

"I lived in China for a while," she picked her own back up and opened another box.

"You really moved around huh?"

She nodded. "I never wanted to spend too long in one place, I didn't want anyone to find me."

"You mean me?"

"You always find me Ryan." His face fell and he took another bite. "Oh baby, baby no it's not a bad thing. I never want to be away from you but I couldn't risk them finding us, I didn't want to be the reason that you die."

"I know kid," he smiled at her, she may not have realised it but her use of past tense made his heart leap. She was starting to come around to the idea of them staying together. "You wanna watch a film? Pretty sure I've got some crappy horror ones around here somewhere?"

"Yeah sounds fun, tell you what I'll pick a film if you go and get us some wine?" She rolled off the bed and moved to the tv on the wall opposite the foot of the bed, she sat cross legged on the floor and flipped through the collection of dvd's there, he returned to the room three bottles of wine in an ice bucket and two glasses, he opened a bottle of red and settled himself back in the warm bed. She grabbed the remote and climbed next to him, she tangled her legs with his and pulled the covers over them, he handed her a glass and picked up another box.

"Bloody hell, how much did you order?"

"Enough that we don't have to get out of bed at all today," he winked and she felt a shock of lust in her belly.

"You're bad Ryan." She fed him a piece of orange chicken, a drop of sticky sauce caught on the corner of his mouth, she leant across and licked it off before kissing him sensually, pulling back her eyes searched his face and she felt her lips tugging up in a smile, he reached for her with a mischievous glint in his eyes but she pulled back.

"Oh no baby, you teased me for hours yesterday. It's my turn." She went back to eating and he laughed softly.

"Fine. Have your fun and we'll see how long you can last poppet." They sat watching the film and eating, when he felt ready to burst he moved the food to the floor and pulled her against his chest. She leant against him with a contented sigh and her head fell back against his shoulder and she placed his hands over his that rested on her flat stomach.

The film was about vampires and she giggled at the fake gore and 'terrified' screams coming from the victim.

"What's so funny kid?"

"I wonder if they know how wrong they've got all of this? I mean the feeding frenzies and all of that shit. No wonder people are scared of them with this crap being fed to them constantly."

"A little soft spot for vampires have we?"

She turned her head slightly to look at him with a glint in her eye. "They're misunderstood and a great lay." He growled and flipped her onto her stomach flat on the bed.

"A great lay huh?"

She nodded breathless, he held her hands down on the bed either side of her head. Nudging her legs apart with a knee he knelt behind her, his knees in the back of hers keeping her legs apart and pressed the head of his cock against the entrance of her pussy. She groaned and wiggled her hips as much as she could in her position.

"And how would you know that?" He pushed into her until he was embedded to the hilt in her tight wetness and growled again and left her hands to move down and grab her waist; pulling her against him he rested her hips on his thighs. "Keep your hands there." His voice was harsh and she shuddered as a small shock of fear went through her. He sounded angry.

His fingers dug into the soft skin of her waist and he slammed into her, she cried out and tried to push herself up from the bed.

"Stay. Still." His voice was terrifying and sounded like it was being ripped from his chest with great pain. She immediately stilled and allowed his continued assault on her tight pussy, his breath came in harsh pants and his fingers dug deeper into her skin leaving dark purple bruises.

He listened as her cries became louder then groaned as the silken walls of her pussy tightened around his thick length and she came hard around him. Reaching down he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled until she knelt straddling his thighs, her calves either side of his keeping her spread open. His free hand travelled up her body stopping to violently pinch and twist her small pink nipples making her hiss in pain, wrapping his strong fingers around her neck he thrust hard into her basking in her screams of pleasure until she came again and brought his own orgasm racing, he growled and bit her earlobe as his whole body shook and he shot rope after rope of cum into her.

Her head fell back against his shoulder and she went limp, he released his grip on her neck instead gently taking her chin between his thumb and finger and turning her head to look at him, he frowned when he saw the laughter on her face.

"What's so funny?" His voice was breathless and confused but his eyes danced.

"You're so easy. I lasted hours yesterday with all your teasing. I didn't even touch you and you lasted less than five minutes." 

"You're dangerous little girl. So you have never slept with a vampire?"

She shook her head and reaching over her shoulder slid her fingers through his blonde curls, he kissed her neck and she felt him sigh. "Good."

"A bit jealous were we baby?"

He nipped her neck and growled playfully. "Don't push it kid."

*

They spent the next three days in bed, getting up only to shower, collect food and bring more alcohol from the kitchen. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday morning he had woken to an empty bed and each time his heart had skipped a beat terrified she had left him, but when he woke late on Friday he turned and stretched his arm out, his fingers brushed against soft, warm skin and he forced his eyes open. She lay on her side facing him, her head cushioned on one arm and her mouth slightly open and her long hair tumbling across her shoulder. He took a minute to study his mate once again finding himself struck by her beauty, the graceful slope of her brow, her long eyelashes, her soft cheeks that were flushed pink, her small button nose, her plump, pouting lips.

"Are you watching me sleep?" She smiled and her doe like eyes fluttered open and she looked up at him with love on her face.

"Couldn't help it."

"You're a massive perv, you know that right?"

"Only for you poppet," he leant down to kiss her but she stopped him with a finger on his lips.

"I'm gross, I haven't brushed my teeth yet." He took her wrist, moved her hand from him and kissed her lingeringly, she tasted sweet and smelt like warmth and sleep.

"You're delicious." He looked at the clock on the bedside table, 10.40, he had enough time. "We'll go out today baby, I've been selfish with you." She giggled and propped herself on her elbow. "Who else do you expect to be enjoying me today?" He pulled her to lay on his chest, her legs either side of his hips and kissed her again.

"Come on, lets have a bath."

She raised an eyebrow and rolled her hips suggestively against him. "I thought you wanted to go out." He swatted her round ass and she let out a soft shriek of surprise.

"Don't tempt me kid," he tipped her back onto the bed and stood stretching, her eyes roamed over his muscled frame and she felt the lust pool in her belly. She had through after this long she would have stopped drooling over him like a pubescent schoolgirl yet she couldn't take her eyes from him. "You ogling me Lily?"

"Shut up you were just watching me sleep."

"At least I do it subtly, you're practically dribbling." She rolled over and kicked out, he jumped out of the way and grabbed her ankle, kissing the bottom of her foot he licked quickly and she laughed at the tickling sensation. "I'm going to run a bath, try not to look at my ass as I go."

"Bite me."

"In time," he disappeared into the bathroom leaving her grinning on the bed. She heard the water running and him whistling as he moved around the bathroom and she thought on how lucky she was to have found him. "Come on baby." She slid out of bed and padded across the soft carpet to the ensuite bathroom, the deep bath was filled to the brim with warm bubbly water, he took her hand while she stepped into the tub and when she was sat he settled himself behind her his legs either side of her, she leant back against his hard chest and sighed as the hot water caressed her muscles, she stretched, arching her back then pulled her hair over her shoulder.

"Wash my back baby?" His eyes roamed over the soft skin of her back, a light spattering of freckles covered her entire body giving her an almost childlike look, he poured body wash onto his hands and slowly massaged the bubbles into her skin.

She moaned as his strong fingers worked the knots from her muscles and her head fell forward on a sigh. "Oh god that feels so good." Her husky voice sent a shock of lust through him and he stilled, taking a breath to keep himself in control. "Ryan, please don't stop." She pressed back against him trying to get his hands moving on her again, his hands moved down her back under the water and washed her hips and the top of the curve of her ass, she moaned again and her head fell back onto his chest. He poured more bubbles into his hands and gently lifted one of her arms, running his palm from her shoulder to her hand, her massaged her hand before moving caressingly back up her arm and across her neck, he repeated the process on her other arm. Her soft breathing had sped up and her eyes were closed, he smiled and took hold of both her wrists bringing them round behind her back, he pulled her even harder against his chest so her hands were trapped before pouring more bubbles into his hands. Placing both large hands on her flat stomach he felt her jump, he rubbed small circles across her abdomen and ribs, she drew in a shaky breath and held it as his hands inched upwards towards her c-cup breasts and finally covered them.




Tormented Ch. 05



"Oh." She let out her breath on a soft moan and wiggled against him trying to get closer. He rubbed gently feeling her small pink nipples harden under his fingers, he pinched them gently and she bit her lip to keep her moan back, slowly he moved his hands back to her stomach and she felt disappointment pool in her abdomen until he cupped her mound and she bit back another moan. He circled her clit with a finger and a small noise escaped her as she tried to keep her moans quiet.

"Don't hide them baby. All your little moans are mine, now let me hear them." He worked one finger into her and she shivered still keeping her lips closed worried about someone else in the house hearing her. "Let me hear you." He curled his finger into her and his thumb rubbed across her clitoris, a tiny noise escaped her but still she held back her teeth biting into her lips making small rivers of blood run over her chin and down her chest. His free hand wrapped her hair in a fist and pulled her head back to growl into her ear. "I said. Let. Me. Hear. You." On his last word he bit down on her neck and she cried out as she came, her entire body tensed then relaxed as she fell back against him panting softly.

"You don't hide your moans from me Lily, you're mine. All of you." She nodded and turned to kneel between his legs, kissing him she reached behind him and picked up the bottle of bubbles, pouring some into her small hands she smiled mischievously and began to rub her small hands across his broad chest, she could feel his muscles tensing under her fingers and smiled. She arched her back pushing her breasts and butt out to even more appealing angles, leaning forward she kissed his neck before running her tongue across his stubbled jaw and over his bottom lip nipping gently, her hand moved down his stomach, tiptoeing across the strong muscles of his abs tickling slightly. He shuddered and leant his head back against the rim of the tub his eyes closed, she took him in one small hand, her fingers struggling to meet around his girth and squeezed. She began to move her hand slowly and he groaned, his eyes opened and he stared down at the sight of his thick cock sliding easily in and out of her mouth his entire length disappearing down her throat. Her eyes flickered up to gaze at him through her dark lashes and he shivered at the raw lust he saw there. She straightened and straddled his lap, kissing him softly she rolled her hips against and whispered softly into his ear.

"Fuck me Ryan. Make me scream." He growled and took hold of her hips, lifting her slightly he lowered her onto his cock. "Oh god." Her voice was breathy and her head fell back, she wrapped her legs around his waist so all her weight was supported by his strong arms and he moved her up and down, her hands grasped his shoulders her nails digging into his skin and she moaned.

He tipped her off his lap and turned her so her back was too him and pushed on her back til she bent at the waist. Her hands gripped the rim of the bath tub and she looked at him over her shoulder.

"Ryan please, I need you." He smoothed his hands over her butt, before slapping gently, she bit her lip and jumped at the stinging contact. Slowly he entered her and held himself deep inside her, her muscles tensed and she pressed backwards trying to get even closer, one hand came to her chest and cupped one breast, he tweaked and pulled the nipple then pinched hard.

"Oh god," she tossed her head back and began to thrust her hips back against him moaning at the sweet fiction his cock inside her caused. He grabbed hold of her hips and began thrusting hard into her, his hips slammed against her and she cried out in a mixture of pain and pleasure, he leant down to whisper in her ear.

"Scream for me baby," he tangled his fingers in her long hair and yanked her head back, his lips roamed over her neck. "Scream for me." He bit down and she screamed as she came, his own orgasm ripped through him. Lazily he sat back in the bath and arranged her on his lap his cock still buried inside her, she laughed softly and rested her head on his shoulder.

"You make a very good case for me to stay."

"I do try," he kissed along her shoulder. "Come on kid, I'm taking you out."

"Wait, we're actually going to leave the house?"

"We're gonna try poppet." He lifted her from the tub and wrapped her in a fluffy white towel. "Go get dressed and I'll meet you downstairs," he patted her bottom gently sending her back into the bedroom while he wrapped a second towel around his waist, he kissed her and went to walk from the room.

"Wait. Where are you going to change?"

"This place is a lot bigger than you know," he winked and disappeared, quickly she dried herself and dressed in a short patterned sundress and white high top trainers, brushing out her waist length curls she plaited it loosely down her back she propped her sunglasses on top of her head and walked from the room, she scanned the apartment but Ryan was nowhere to be seen, a note had been left on the door. 

'Baby. I've had to go and sort some things out, Aaron will meet you downstairs and will take you out, I will meet you there as soon as I can. I love you Poppet. R x'

She smiled at the warm feeling in her belly his words caused and felt a slight blush creep across her cheeks, taking the note she folded it and placed it in her bra.

She left the flat and pressed the button to call the lift, when the doors slid open she entered and was whisked down to the lobby. Staring around she spotted the dark skinned man who had driven her and Ryan to the restaurant that first day.

"Aaron?" 

He turned and bowed slightly. "Miss Lily." He held out his arm and she hooked her hand into his elbow. "Can I say you look beautiful today."

She giggled quietly. "Thank you, you don't look too bad yourself." He wore black trousers and a crisp white shirt, his head was shaven giving him a dangerous look and when he turned to smile down at her she found herself bewitched by his glowing amber eyes.

"Ryan was right, you are dangerous." He lead her outside to the sun drenched street. "What car would you like to take?"

She turned, he towered over her small frame and she grinned mischievously up at him. "What's the fastest?"

"Good choice little lady, we'll take the Lamborghini Aventador."

A frowned creased her forehead. "Is it fast?"

"One of the fastest, wait here." He disappeared into the underground garage and she smiled as the sound of a throaty revving engine, the car was a gleaming white and she clapped excitedly when she saw it.

"Oh my god, it's gorgeous," he stood and opened the passenger side door for her.

"Then it was a very good choice for you," he took her hand and helped her into the seat, she watched him as he moved back round the car and slid in next to her. "Ready little lady?"

She placed her glasses on her nose and nodded. "Let's go big guy." He winked, floored the gas pedal and they shot off down the road.

She whooped in delight and laughed, her giggle like a child. They sped through the streets weaving in and out of traffic, drawing envious looks from everyone they passed, they left the buildings behind them and drove through the scenic roads, the sea sparkled next to them and she turned to face him. 

"Pull up over there will you?" He frowned before pulling smoothly to a stop in a layby at the side of the road, he turned the car off but before he could say a word she leapt on his lap and held his hands against his seat. "What are you?"

"Don't you remember me? You killed me." She frowned and let go of his hands, pushing her glasses back onto her head she searched his face and recognition began to dawn on her pretty face. "The day you met Ryan there were three of us there. One died instantly but I was left between life and death, when you ran Ryan saved me."

"You're his Follower?" Aaron nodded. "He didn't tell me he had any."

"Do you understand the process."

She shrugged. "We all know the basics but I've never really understood it." She looked at how she was sitting and blushed slightly. "Do you want me to move?"

He grinned cheekily and rested his hands on her thighs. "I'm comfortable. What exactly do you know about Followers?"

"I know that both Angels and the Fallen have the ability to make them, we share our life with the dying human and they become a mix between us and what they used to be."

"Good, when Ryan saved me he gave me some of his life that keeps me alive as long as he is, in return he has the power to control me if he wishes. Ryan has never chosen to use that power but when you left him a year ago his pain brought me back to him. Because I share his life with him I felt the same pain and to relieve it just a little I returned to my Master to help him. I've been with him ever since."

Her eyes filled with tears and her bottom lip began to tremble. "So all the pain I put Ryan through you felt as well?" He nodded. "I'm so sorry."

"Don't think on it little lady, for if the Angels killed Ryan I would be destroyed too. Without realising you have been keeping both of us alive with you selflessness. By causing yourself pain staying away from him you have saved both of our lives more times than we can count." He tilted her head up with one finger under her chin until she looked into his warm eyes again. "You're a strong girl."

Her eyes searched his handsome face and she frowned in confusion at the strange feeling in her gut, the only thing she could compare it to was the feeling she got when she was with Ryan, slowly he leant down and she tilted her head higher to bring their lips less than an inch apart, her lips were slightly apart and her breath was trembling. She hastily slid off his lap and propped her sunglasses back on her nose. He stroked her hair before starting the car again, they sped on down the road until they reached a wooded area, he stopped the car and come round to open her door, taking her hand he lead her through the trees to a beautiful clearing, yellow, pink and purple flowers covered the ground and in the middle a blanket was laid out. A hamper sat next to it and a second hamper was filled with wine bottles. She smiled and turned to Aaron. 

"Did he do this?"

"Yeah, he's a lucky guy to have someone like you little lady."

"He's a lucky guy to have a friend like you big guy." He opened a bottle of white and poured her a glass.

"Wait here, he shouldn't be too long." She reached on tiptoe and kissed his cheek. "I'll see you around little lady." Then he was gone. She sipped the crisp wine and settled herself on the soft blanket, stretching her legs out she felt the warmth of the sun on her skin and enjoyed the quiet of her surroundings, she felt rather than saw Ryan approaching and turned, he was dressed in light blue skinny jeans and a white t-shirt, he had rolled the legs of his trousers up to just below his knees and his feet were bare.

"Hello baby." She stood and jumped onto his chest, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and kissed him lingeringly before resting her forehead against his. "What was that for?" His voice was filled with laughter and he wrapped his arms around her.

"I missed you." 

His eyes searched hers and he smirked. "Aaron told you didn't he?" She nodded. "You felt it didn't you?" She nodded again her face flushed with shame.

"I'm so sorry Ry, I don't know what happened. I didn't do anything I promise but it felt like I wanted to." He kissed her again and sat on the blanket facing her.

"When I gave him life he became a mix of the human he once was and the Demon that I am, therefore the mating pull that me and you feel is also inside him. The part of me inside him yearns for you and you in turn yearn for that same part. What you are feeling is completely normal baby."

"But you should hate me, I wanted to kiss him and if I had I would have done more."

"Lily shut up. If I couldn't have you I wouldn't want you to be with anyone else but him, then even if I wasn't with you myself a part of me would be."

"So, if I were to make a Follower you would feel the same thing towards them?" He nodded, her mischievous smile returned. "So if my Follower was a man you would still have feelings for him?" He growled playfully.

"Yes, I would."

"I'll keep that in mind."

He swatted her thigh making her jump, then pulling the hamper towards him he pulled out bread, meats, cheeses, grapes, plump strawberries, fresh mango and pineapple and sweet milk chocolate.

"Wow, this looks amazing." She bit into a strawberry and sipped on her wine. "Did you know I would find out about Aaron?" 

"I thought you would know he was different, you're a smart kid you would have eventually worked it out."

"Would you have told me if I didn't?"

"Of course, he's like a brother to me. I want you to be involved in everything that I've ever done." She smiled and popped a grape in his mouth, he picked up the French loaf and ripped it in half, piling meat and cheese onto one half he dollop mustard and mayonnaise into the sandwich and handed it to her, she bit into it and chewed thoughtfully for a minute.

"Aaron said that you have to power to control him, what exactly does that mean?"

He placed his own sandwich down and leant back on his hands. "If ever I was in danger, you were in danger, anyone I care for I have the power to make him do anything I deem fit to protect them, even if it means giving up his own life."

"So you could make him sacrifice himself to save someone." Ryan nodded. "You wouldn't though, would you?"

He shrugged. "I'd like to think the idea would never enter my mind, but if someone I loved was going to die I don't know if I would be able to think straight."

"Ryan, that man would do anything for you, you could never do anything to hurt him, I know you couldn't." She crawled forward and kissed him. "And I know you better than anyone." She kissed him again and crawled into his lap, her delicate fingers trailed down his chest to his jeans and she rubbed the bulge of his erection through the denim, she gently bit his earlobe and when she spoke her voice was a breathy whisper. "How many people normally come through here?" 

He shrugged his breathing ragged. "The occasional hikers and maybe a few dog walkers." She smiled and kissed his neck.

"Well you better keep an eye out then," her nimble fingers undid the button and fly on his jeans, reaching in she stroked him though the fabric of his underwear, he groaned and his eyes flickered around looking for any sign of movement, her hand slipped under the elastic and grasped his length, flicking her tongue over the tip she collected the drop of pre-cum and swallowed with a quiet moan. She pushed his t-shirt up his chest revealing his muscled stomach, he leant back onto his elbows as she wrapped her fingers around him again and began to pump up and down his thick cock revelling in the feel of the hardness under the silky skin. She squeezed slightly and his hands clenched into fists.

"Oh god, Lily." He looked around again before smiling down at her innocent face. "If anyone comes through here we're not going to be popular."

"Oh I don't know, I heard some people like to watch." She winked and ran her tongue around the head of his cock before sucking the first couple of inches into her warm mouth, his eyes shut and his head fell back with a loud groaned, she continued to bob up and down on the tip of his length sliding a little further down each time until finally she engulfed his whole cock her throat massaging him, her eyes flickered back to his face, staring up at him through her thick lashes.

He looked back at her, reaching down he stroked her hair before grabbing her plait. "Fuck you feel so good." She moaned at the slight pinch his pulling on her hair caused and the vibrations sent waves of pleasure through him, she continued to moved up and down his cock her talented throat allowing him to slide in easily while still creating a wonderful friction against his skin. He took another look around before turning her so she knelt on the blanket facing away from him and pushed her dressed up over the round curve of her ass. She wore no underwear.

"Holy shit Lily, what are you trying to do to me?" She turned to look over her shoulder as he knelt behind her and rolled her hips invitingly at him.

"Well for the last few days we haven't even been able to leave your bed for more than five minutes, I figured this would make things easier." He leant down and gently nipped one cheek and she jumped, he slid a finger into her tight heat and she shivered, positioning himself behind her teased her entrance with the tip of his cock, slowly he slid into her tight pussy and growled in pleasure. Gripping her hips tightly he leant down to whisper harshly into her ear.

"We'll have to be quick, I don't want anyone walking in on this," he began to thrust his hips against her, she balled her hands into fists on the blanket and groaned.

"Oh fuck Ryan," she dropped her head forward and cried out each time his thick cock bottomed out inside her, he balled her dress in his hands and pounded harder and faster into her. Slowing he stood, pulling her to her feet along with him, she stayed bent at the waist her hands still on the blanket she was bent in half, she had to stand on tiptoes to keep their hips level. He gazed at the muscles as they played under her smooth skin and not for the first time admired the beauty of his mate, he began to thrust harder his orgasm building within him as her entire body shook with pleasure, finally she tensed as orgasm gripped her and she cried out loudly into the quiet surroundings, he thrust once more deep inside her and growled deep in his throat as rope after rope of cum jetted into her tight depths.

They collapsed on the blanket breathing heavily. He pulled her back against his chest and tidied their clothes. 

"Ryan."

"Yeah poppet."

"I...I want to stay." He tensed slightly not wanting to believe what he had just heard in case he was mistaken.

"What?"

"I want to stay, with you." His heart leapt in joy but still he remained passive.

"What changed your mind?"

"I've always wanted to stay but I didn't want to be the one that caused your death, but I can't stay away from you any longer. Screw the Angels, let them do what they want and we will fight them when they come. I don't know what will happen when they do but what I do know is that you're my mate and nothing will keep me from you again, they would have to kill me first."

He turned her so she faced him and pulled her tight against his chest, she buried her head in his shoulder and surreptitiously wiped a tear from her eye. "You've never called me that before."

"I've always known though."

"You'll really stay?" She pulled back and stared into his shining green eyes alive with joy.

"Of course I will." He kissed her softly, they lay in silence while the sun warmed their bodies, her breathing slowed becoming deep and even, as she drifted off into sleep, he kissed her forehead and with a huge grin on his face he too fell asleep.

*

A scream woke him, sitting bolt upright he looked around him but a blinding light prevented his from seeing anything.

"Ryan!" 

"Lily?! Lily where are you?!"

"Ryan help!" Her voice was terrified and he stood.

"Where are you?!"

He took a step forward but an agonising pain wrenched through him and he fell to his knees clutching his stomach. "Lily!" His scream was filled with pain and he tried to stand but the pain increased ripping another agony filled yell from him. "Lily!" His voice was hoarse from screaming but still he tried to struggle to his feet. The pain seemed to explode within him and he slumped forward onto the ground as his blurred vision began to darken, before he slipped into unconsciousness he heard Lily's voice calling for him and he felt another pain inside him even worse than the blinding agony he already felt. It was as though something was being torn from him.




Tormented Ch. 05



"Lily." His voice was nothing more than a whisper before the darkness enveloped him and he fell into unconsciousness.

He woke hours later in his bed, the sky was dark and it felt like there was a gaping hole in his chest.

"He's waking up," Lucy's face came into view and she took hold of his hand. "Ryan honey, are you ok?"

He looked to his other side where Aaron sat, his eyes were bloodshot and he was trebling.

"Master they have Lily."

"What?" Ryan sat up wincing at the pain in his chest. 

"The Angels, they have her." A tear escaped Aaron's eye and he finally looked into the green eyes of his Master. "The Angels have Lily."

She awoke slowly, her entire body was gripped with a searing agony and a tiny moan escaped her. She forced her eyes to focus and looked around the room for her mate. She was in an unfamiliar stone room, the ground was cold and damp against her bare legs where her dress had ridden up her thighs, her wrists felt as if they were on fire and they was an aching hole in her chest. Looking down she saw long coils of thick gold chain attached to the wall, they in turn were anchored to thick cuffs around her wrists and ankles allowing her to move about the room but not to reach the door. She laughed softly and wrapping a hand around the cuff on her left wrist she attempted to rip it free, the pain intensified the minute her fingers touched the cold metal, she could not free the cuff and for the first time in her long life she felt weak. She felt helpless.

She took a moment to look around the large room. It was made entirely of grey stone, no windows and one door made from metal. If she could reach it she was sure she could easily rip through the metal. Standing on shaky legs she tried to take a step towards the door but the pain increased throughout her whole body and she collapsed back to her knees her head hanging.

She did not know how long she sat there in silence fighting back tears and praying to Lucifer that Ryan would appear. When the door finally opened her head whipped up an expectant smile on her face. The dark haired man that entered sent a sinking feeling through her.

"You knew my name." his bright blue eyes shone brightly as he stared down at her small form on the ground before him, he shut the door and leant against it with his arms folded.

"And yet you did not recognise me."

"You're an Angel?" She laughed again quietly and smirked. "An Angel brought me Chinese food. Bit of a step down from serving the One that is Good and True isn't it?" She looked back at the floor angry with herself for not realising what he was the minute she laid eyes on him. "You called yourself Aiden, what's your true name?"

"I'm rather sad you don't remember me Lilith," her eyes snapped back to his at the use of her true name. "The two of us used to be quite good friends I recall."

Tears filled her dark eyes. "Abdiel? Is it really you?" He nodded. "Then you knew me and Ryan were together? You were my friend and you didn't warn me that the Angels were coming?"

He looked almost sad as he watched her mind turn and finally she understood. "You told them. You told the Angels where we were and they took me. Then Ryan must already be dead." Her pretty face showed the exact moment that her heart ripped in two and her next words were screamed in a broken voice. "Why didn't you help me?!" She leapt to her feet and ran at him, he didn't move his face remaining impassive, the chains stopped her less than a foot from him and she grunted as her arms were wrenched back. "What did we ever do to you?" A tear fell and rolled down her soft cheek as she remembered the loss of her mate. "What did Ryan ever do to you?"

He grinned and wrapped her fingers round her delicate throat, her breathing became laboured and her eyes grew wide with panic as she realised her weakness was growing. 

"What did he ever do to me?" he tightened his grip and pulled her face closer pulling on her restraints making her gasp in pain, he leant down to her small figure and spoke softly into her ear. "He stole my mate from me. And now I intend to see him suffer the same fate."

He threw her from him, she slammed into the wall her head hitting hard on the stone and she groaned in pain, she watched him leave through heavy eyes and at the sound of the slamming door she collapsed back against the stone and let the blackness take her 

*

"Ryan, where the fuck have you been?" The elf stared at her friend with worry etched on her pretty face. It had been a week since Lily had been taken and he had neither slept not eaten since then, instead spending all of his time either out looking or pouring over the maps of the Angels trying to find some trace of where she might have been taken.

He said nothing only looked at her with exhaustion and grief in his eyes. She took his hand and gently kissed his knuckles.

"Ryan please, rest. Aaron is still out there looking for her but while you are like this, he cannot concentrate on finding her as he is worrying about you."

He snatched his hand back. "You don't understand what this is like. When your mate dies it is like Hell, not knowing what has happened to her is like being thrown to its fucking depths." A tear rolled down her cheek and she nodded. Turning she left and he heard the front door close softly, he slumped on the sofa and his head dropped into his hands.

As the doors to the lift slid open in the lobby of his building Lucy was greeted by the haggard face of Aaron, he was almost shaking with tiredness and his eyes were glazed. She hugged his to her tightly and kissed his cheek.

"Any luck?" He shook his head against her shoulder and tightened his hold around her waist, the sweet scent of her red hair soothed him and he felt himself relax for the first time in a week.

"Nothing, I've checked every place on my Master's maps and nothing. I don't know where they've taken her and I don't know what I can do."

"Shh, it's ok. We will find her, the Angels hold some power but they know nothing of the old magic of my people." Aaron stepped back and looked at the young elf, her eyes had taken on an unearthly glow and a small smile curved her lips.

"You can find her."

"I have been trying but I didn't want to give Ryan false hope until I was sure."

Aaron tensed for a second then relaxed with a sigh. "He's asleep." Lucy took his hand and lead him from the building.

"Then you must sleep too, come on. You can stay with me, it will be helpful to have you in my work." He allowed her bundle him into her small car and as she pulled away from the curb he too slept.

*

She dreamt of her childhood, although on opposite sides of the divide she and Abdiel had been friends. They had lived a happy life until his sixteenth birthday when he was called into the Holy Guard, charged with hunting and killing the Demons that had found their mates. 

"Do you know what happens to Demons when they find their mates?" His young face had been serious the day he had left, as he held her face in his hands. 

"We are hunted by the Angels, when they find us we are killed and sent to Hell to be punished as Lucifer was."

"And what do you know of the Angels?"

"When they find their mates they ascend to Heaven to be with the One who is Good and True, they become immortal."

He kissed her softly and stroked her hair back from her face. "You are soon sixteen, soon you will find your mate. Promise me you will be careful."

She brought her hands up to hold his wrists then with tears in her dark eyes she whispered her response. "When I find my mate, promise me you will be merciful."

"Wake up." A sharp slap across her cheek jerked her from her sleep and she moaned softly at the pain. Abdiel stood in front of her a hunk of bread and a cup of water in one hand, everyday water was pushed through the door and twice there had been bread. This was the first time she had seen anyone in what felt like weeks. She tried to reach out and take the food but her hands sopped less than a foot from the wall, her hands were now chained above her head on much shorter chains and she whimpered at the pain pulling on them caused her.

"Don't try and move." He crouched in front of her and held the cup to her lips, she drank enjoying the cool water on her chapped lips and dry throat, he took the cup away and she followed mewling like a kitten wanting more. Instead he put the bread in front of her lips and watched as she ate from his hand hungrily.

"Slow down or you'll be sick."

"Like you give a fuck about me." He dropped the bread to the floor and took her face in his hands.

"I have always cared about you Lilith," she yanked her head away and he sighed. Whistling he stood as the door opened again, two more dark haired men entered the room both with glowing golden eyes like Aaron's. "Have her ready and then bring her too me." Her eyes widened as she stared up at him in fear.

"Abdiel please." He said nothing walking from the room in silence, the two men advanced on her, their faces expressionless. "Please don't." One removed the chains attached to the shackles but left the cuffs in place then holding her hands behind her back pushed her forward, the other took a knife from the waist band of his trousers, methodically he cut her out of her dress and bra leaving her naked. Roughly they pushed her from the room and down a stone hallway. The walls were lit with candles and the cold struck her making her shivered and her small pink nipples harden into points. She was shoved roughly through into a large room and the heavy wooden door closed behind her. Abdiel stood at the foot of a large four poster bed his arms folded. She looked at the floor her hair falling forwards to hide her face as she fought tears.

"Gold, a very simple way to make sure you do not cause trouble while you are here, do you know what gold does to a Demon Lilith?" She remained silent still not looking at him. "When you are wearing gold you are as close to mortal as you will ever be, you will age, you will starve, you will feel pain and you will not heal. It is the only time anything other than an Angel could cause you harm."

He moved to stand in front of her and tilted her face to look at him.

"Wow you have grown Lilith."

"Don't call me that." Her voice was filled with venom and her teeth were gritted. "What did we ever do to deserve this? If Ryan killed your mate then go ahead and get it over with don't leave me to rot here."

"Who said your precious Raim killed my mate, all I said was he took her from me. She was just as willing in the betrayal."

"You are not allowed to call him that."

"It is his true name though, isn't it?"

"He has done nothing to you, he is my mate and I am his. There has never been another. Your mate would have been an Angel, why would Ryan go near one?"

"It is possible for a Demon to find a mate in an Angel."

She shook her head. "That's not possible." Her anger began to rise again and she took a step towards him. "Now let me go or kill me, don't keep me here as your personal revenge against someone who has done nothing to you."

Quicker than she could follow he was in front of her pushing her backwards until she hit the wood of the door, holding her hands above her head he pressed himself against her naked body, she struggled and kicked out against him, he growled as her foot connected with his thigh, although weak she was still stronger than any human and her kick bruised him instantly. Raising his hand he slapped her face hard and she bit her lip to stop from making a sound. He struck her again across the other cheek and once more she fought to keep from crying out, wrapping his hand around her throat he squeezed feeling her fragile pulse under his fingers, his other hand released her wrists and moved down her body, stopping at her breasts to violently pinch her small nipples. A weak groan escaped her as her vision blurred and she began to slump against the door, letting go of her throat he tapped her face until she focused on him again the without warning he pushed a finger inside of her and she cried out at the intense burning pain in her stomach.

He pulled at the button of his jeans and kicked them away along with his underwear, pulling his t-shirt over his head he took hold of her waist and slammed into her making her scream in pain.

"Abdiel please, don't do this." Tears ran down her cheeks as she began to struggle against him, her fists beat against his chest but he didn't seem to feel it. He lifted her by her thighs wrapping them around his waist. "Please stop, you're hurting me."

"Now you know a fraction of how I felt," he moved from the door and threw her on the bed, crawling on top of her he pushed back into her tight pussy and she screamed again at the agonising pain, she pushed desperately at his chest, sobbing.

"Please stop it hurts." 

He held himself above her on his muscled arms and stared into her face contorted in pain. "No my little Demon, you hurt me and now it's my turn."

His thrusts grew faster and deeper and she screamed again in agony, finally he held himself still inside her and jetted into her ravaged pussy. She cried out again at the burning sensation, he rolled off her and sat on the edge of the bed. She curled herself into a ball clutching her stomach and crying quietly. He pulled his jeans back on and opened the door.

"You can take her back now." She shrank away from the hands that reached for her terrified of anymore pain. She was grabbed roughly and pulled to her feet and she whimpered at the pain that once again shot through her, as she was dragged through the door she caught sight of Abdiel's face, he was smiling nastily at her and she shuddered. "Until tomorrow my little Demon."

Summoning what was left of her strength she snarled back at him. "I will never be yours." She was dragged back through the corridors, one man opened the door to her prison while the other keep her upright as her legs still refused to hold her weight, she was thrown against the wall, her hands were held either side of her head as the shackles were reattached to the chains anchored to the wall. She hung her head and prayed that the two men would leave her alone.

"Did you see, the fucking Demon slag didn't even have underwear on?"

"What else do you expect from her kind, they only know eating, drinking, fucking and shitting." They laughed and she raised her head, her face was streaked with tears and her hair was matted around her face.

"I wonder if you would be so brave to say that if I weren't in these chains Follower?"

The taller of the two stepped forward and knelt in front of her. "An Angel made us, we are more powerful than any fucking Demon cunt, chains or none."

She darted forward her teeth sinking into his neck and he cried out, he lashed out at her head and shoulders trying to free her grip. The second leapt forward and ripped the other from her jaws, she smiled her lips and chin stained with dark red blood.

"Next time you insult my kind remember what you are and remember what I could do to you." The first, still clutching his bleeding neck, kicked out violently catching her in the stomach, an almost unbearable pain ran through her but she did not allow a sound to escape her, the second joined in on the beating and she curled herself into a ball as best she could trying to protect her already broken body.

After what seemed like hours they stopped, the taller spat on her naked body before leaving, the second stayed for a second looking down at her before he too left. Only when the door had slammed shut and she heard the locks thud into place did she allow the tears to come. The wrenching sobs only proved to make the pain worse and she took deep breaths trying to calm herself. Unbidden thoughts of Ryan entered her mind and she howled loudly.

The next day was the same, the two Followers came and undid her shackles yet left the gold cuffs around her wrists, she was taken through the corridors and into the bedroom, it was lit by a roaring fire and for a second she relaxed, her eyes closed, feeling the warmth seep into her cold, aching muscles.

A large hand smoothed across her stomach and she flinched at what was about to come, instead of violence the hand was gently, caressing her skin gently he stood behind her and gently kissed her shoulder.

"How are we feeling today my little Demon?"

She stayed looking at the floor. "I told you, I am not yours."

"In time you will be," he hand slid lower and she tensed.

"Please Abdiel, please don't hurt me again." 

His hand didn't stop moving and slowly he circled her clit with one finger, she relaxed slightly when she felt no additional pain but still didn't raise her head.

"Why are you doing this Abdiel? Why did you take me from him."

"I would have thought you knew this story." His voice was hushed against her ear and she shivered uncomfortably at the sensations it sent through her.

"I know the story, I just don't know the version that says this is justice." Her teeth were gritted and she balled her hands into fists.

"Then I shall tell you the story," he stayed behind her one finger still rubbing the small nub of flesh, while the other smoothed over her breasts brushing lightly over her erect nipples. "Our God had a wife, one who he loved very much and she him. Ana. Lucifer, your so called God, seduced her with darkness and stole her from the One that is Good and True against her wishes. When our Master found out he broke the spell that was on Ana and banished Lucifer to Hell where he would suffer for eternity never knowing the love of a mate." He kissed her neck gently. "That is why Demons are forced to choose between their life and their mate. As punishment for what he did."

She laughed and jerked herself out of his arms, she looked him up and down taking in his bare chest and the jeans that hung low on his hips. "Is that the fairytale your God told you?"

"It is the truth."

"No, that is what you ancestors would have you believe. In truth there was another, before Ana. I believe you are familiar with the name." She looked up at him her dark eyes glowing in her pale face. "Lilith, I was named for her and she was your Master's first love." His eyes widened and he took a threatening step towards her. She did not cower away from him instead stood a little straighter and tilted her chin in defiance. "She however loved another, the one you call Devil. When your God found out about their love he gave Lilith a choice, stay in Heaven with him and live forever by his side or choose her love and lose her life for it. She chose Lucifer. She would rather die with him knowing she loved him than live forever knowing she had broken her loves heart. That is why we are killed when we meet our mates, we choose death and die knowing that we have been loved truly."

He gripped her neck and pulled her upwards until their faces were inches apart, he toes barely touched the floor and she struggled to breath but she kept her arms where they were, refusing to show weakness to him.

"You lie, that is a story told to Demon children."

"Then why get so defensive?" 

He growled and threw her against the bed, bending her over he pushed her chest down onto the mattress then he the ripped his jeans from his body and thrust violently into her, she bit her lips to keep from screaming but a whimper escaped. He placed one hand on her back keeping her against the mattress while the other grasped her hip as he began to move quickly in and out of her. She didn't know what hurt more when the thrust in or pulled out and all she could do was count the seconds until it was over. He grunted each time his hips hit against her rounded ass and she gripped the sheets biting the fabric to hide her agonised shouts. His hips sped up and she couldn't contain her pained scream as she felt his hot cum burning her insides. 

He stepped back and she slid to the floor clutching her stomach, curling into a ball she leant back against the bed and stared up at him.

"Ryan will find me, you won't get away with this."

"No my little Demon, the only way he could find you would be through the bond you share as mates, whilst you are mortal that bond is gone. He has no idea where you are and no way to find you."

She hung her head in despair. "Why are you doing this to me?" Her voice was hoarse from screaming and her whole body trembled in pain.




Tormented Ch. 06



"I've told you, Raim stole my mate for his own. Now I steal his."

"He didn't." She shook her head and fresh tears spilled from her eyes. "He didn't, he's only ever loved me. He's never loved anyone but me."

He crouched down and took her chin in his thumb and for finger. "As have I my Demon. I have only ever loved you and you chose him."

Her eyes widened in shock and she searched his face. "What?"

"You Lilith. You are my mate and you chose him. You would never take me willingly so I am forced to this."

She shook her head in desperation. "But I am Fallen, an Angel and a Fallen cannot mate with each other."

"Did your mother never tell you of your father?"

"My father?" Her chest rose and fell rapidly. 

"What do you know of my father?"

He said nothing instead called for the Followers that remained vigilant outside the door, they came and picked her from the floor and dragged her through the door. He listened to her voice as it faded down the corridor.

"Abdiel please. What happened? Who was my father?!"

*

It had been almost four months since Lily had been taken. Ryan had barely slept and eaten less instead spending every moment searching. He had found no trace. He returned to his home and lay in the bed they had shared for almost a week breathing deeply still able to detect her scent.

There was a quiet knock on the door. "Go away."

The door opened and Lucy and Aaron entered.

"Master."

"I said go away." When they did not move he stood from the bed and turned his eyes flashing red and his voice turning monstrous. "GET OUT!"

"Master, Lily is alive." He instantly stilled, his eyes returning to their normal green as he stared at Aaron. "We know a way to find her."

Ryan looked at Lucy his eyes filled with hope. "Is this true?"

She nodded. "Yes."

His eyes filled with tears and she reached out and took his hand, pulling him into her arms she hugged him tightly as he shook trying hold back the emotion that threatened to burst from him. She rubbed over his shoulders, shushing into his ear trying to calm the beast that lurked just below the surface.

"It's going to be ok Ryan. She's alive and we're going to find her."

He took a deep breath and stepped back. "How did you find her?"

She motioned for him to sit, he sank onto the edge of the bed and looked expectantly from one to the other.

"Do you know the effects of gold on the Fallen?" He shook his head. "I renders them mortal, the Angels know this so I believe they had her in gold to stop your bond. You Follower however," she motioned to Aaron. "Although the part of you inside him shares the bond it does not work in the same way. It is not as strong therefore it remains even when though she cannot feel it. That is why it has been overlooked by the Angels. I managed to trace her through the bond she shares with Aaron."

"You?" Ryan turned to Aaron. "You are the reason we found her?"

"Yes Master."

"Then I am no longer your Master, instead I am in your service."

Aaron shook his head. "No, you gave me life, this is just beginning to pay you back for that."

Ryan reached out to grasp the young mans hand. "Then from now we are equals for you have helped to bring my life back to me."

"Now I must warn you," Lucy's voice was grave as she spoke. "She is in a great deal of pain and very scared, but you must help her by staying strong, when we get her back she may not be the girl you remember but give her time to heal. I will help all I can but most of her recovery you will have to let her do alone."

"I know, just please get her back for me."

"I will. But I need your help."

"Anything."

"Come with me. We'll take your car." Within minutes they were speeding towards the woods where he had spent his last moments with Lily, when they reached the clearing she Lucy made a small fire, she had brought a small bag and from it she took a bowl, a metal vial of liquid and a pouch filled with crushed plants and herbs. 

She muttered a few words in a foreign language and the bowl rose from the floor, she poured the deep blue liquid into the bowl, when it began to bubble she took a pinch of a crushed purple flower and sprinkled it into the bowl. She began chanting in a hushed voice over and over the same in words in the same foreign language, a soft wind began to circle the three of them and the two men watched the concentration on her face as she brought forth the fabled magic.

"Come." They knelt either side of her on the forest floor. "Hold out your right hands." They did so and she pulled a small yet sharp blade from the bag and ran it over both of their palms. "Now let the blood fall into the bowl and you should see where she is being kept. You will have to be quick I don't know how long I can maintain the spell."

They nodded and turned their hands, the blood rolled off their palms and dropped into the liquid. The fire leapt upwards forming a circle around the three figures, the wind that still circled them gained speed and as the Fallen and his Follower looked into the fire that surrounded them they saw her. She was chained to the wall, naked and dirty, her face streaked with dirt and tears. She was skinny her hip and collar bones jutting out against her paper thin skin, her cheeks and eyes were sunken, her lips dry and chapped, her entire body was covered in bruises and she could hardly keep her head up. She was dying. 

The image changed showing a corridor lit with candles, heavy wooden doors were set into the wall on either side. It changed again now showing the outside of a great castle, it was surrounded by high walls and huge metal gates stopped anyone from entering. Ryan leapt to his feet with a shout.

"I know where she is. She's in limbo, it's where the soldiers of the Holy Guard are stationed until they find their mates."

"If one of the Guard has her why have they not killed her?" Aaron sounded confused. "I mean I'm thrilled she is still alive but isn't the point of the Holy Guard to kill Demons who have found their mates?"

"Then this must be about something different. We have to go and get her."

"Master you can't that place will be filled with Angels who would kill you on sight." Lucy placed a hand on Aaron's arm.

"Not necessarily, I might have a spell that would allow you to keep your Demon abilities but still keep you hidden from the Angels. I will come with you, they have no control over an elf and I may be able to help."

"What about me?" Aaron piped from beside them.

"It will be too dangerous for you to go, they wouldn't sense you're a Follower but they would know you were human and that would arouse suspicion. I have no way of hiding a human, my spells only work on supernatural creatures."

"Is there anything I can do Master?"

Ryan smiled at his Follower. "You helped bring her back, you have done plenty. What you can do now is sleep, she will want to see you."

"You are sure Master?"

"I will not have you risk your life when you have already done so much for me, go now and rest. You will know when she is safe."

Aaron stood and bowed. "As you wish Master." Then took off at a run that was faster than any human.

"You have a good one there, most are not that lucky to get a perfect friend and Follower on their first go."

"Very true, and now I will never need another." He too stood and pulled the elf to her feet.

"Do you know the way?" Her voice was excited at the prospect of a fight.

He nodded. "Think you can keep up?"

"Honey there is nothing in the world that can outrun an elf."

"We'll see about that." 

*

She had lost count of how many days had gone by, each day she was fed bread and water by one of the Followers then taken to Abdiel's room, she tried not to think on what happened when she was in there but when she was thrown back into her cell and chained once again to the wall her thoughts turned to Ryan and she prayed to Lucifer that he was coming for her.

Once again she was dragged down the corridor to his bedroom, she was limp not even attempting to support her weight on her trembling legs and when she was thrown into the room she simply lay on the floor curled into the foetal position.

"Can it be true? Have I actually broken the Demon?" He grabbed a handful of her knotted hair and pulled her upright until she knelt at his feet. "I thought you had more fight in you little one."

She raised her eyes to his face and seeing the look of hatred in their almost black depths he felt a wave of sadness.

"When Ryan finds me he is going to rip you limb from limb, and I will watch and feel no pity for you Abdiel."

He slapped her face hard and she moaned as her head snapped to the side from the force of the blow. "No. He is not coming for you my little Demon. Your Raim is dead. He died running from the Angels." 

She shook her head vehemently. "No."

"When we found you he ran while leaving you to us. He didn't even stay to die like he promised he would."

"No, no that's not true."

"You Raim promised to stay with you even if it meant death, yet when death came to him he left you to save himself."

She started sobbing, great heaving breaths that sounded as though they were being ripped from deep within her. "You're lying, please, tell me you're lying."

"He ran Lilith and left you to die. He doesn't love you and he never has."

She howled loudly in grief at the loss of her mate and seemed to crumple, falling forward until her forehead touched the floor and pulled at her hair. He smiled down at the girl at his feet, knowing that in her grief soon she would be his once more.

*

When Ryan finally stopped running Lucy stared around at the surroundings, they were in a meadow, the ground covered in flowers and nothing to be seen for miles but stretching green.

"This is limbo?" She sounded confused and he smiled.

"No Luce, this is simply the gateway. Now might be a good time to cast your spell." She nodded and took both of his hands in her own, she spoke softly once again in the unfamiliar tongue, he felt a strange numbing sensation envelope his body and when she let go of his hands he looked down at himself. His skin seemed to shimmer as though her were nothing more than an illusion. "My god, you're good." 

Moving away he closed his eyes and spoke four words. "Aliminos, travistae, nocturnos, eminfus." The air around them seemed to tremble and she watched in awe as their surroundings changed before her eyes. The grass below their feet turned to cobbled streets, stone houses appeared as if from no where and in the distance a great castle stood.

"So this is limbo?"

He nodded. "All of the Fallen know how to get here but none have ever been foolish enough to come." He nodded at the castle. "That is where the Head of the Guard resides until they find a mate. It is given to the first born child of every generation of the family, the family that is there now has been for almost a thousand years. That is where she is." He took her hand and began running through the streets, the were deserted and the ran into no one as they sprinted towards the castle. Reaching the walls, he took her around the waist and threw her, she landed on top of the wall crouched low and she looked around. Beckoning him she waited while he crawled up the wall like a spider then pointed to the ground.

"There, two followers." He nodded and they leapt from the wall, Ryan snapped the neck of one easily while Lucy ripped out the throat of the second. 

He looked at her with surprise on his handsome face. "I didn't know you could do that."

"Elves are full of surprises," as they made their way through the castle they encountered a dozen more Followers, all were killed quickly and silently until finally Ryan caught a familiar scent and growled at a heavy wooden door.

"Go find Lily, I won't be long." Lucy hurried down the corridor and out of sight; he turned back to the door and with one kick he shattered the wood. The tall dark haired man turned at the sound and his eyes widened.

"How the fuck did you get in here?"

Ryan said nothing instead threw himself at the man wrapping his hands around the man's neck he growled at the blinding pain that coursed through him. Pushing it to the back of his mind he leant down and ripped the Angel's throat out with his sharp teeth. The gurgling sound of the blood escaping gave him a satisfied smile and he stood, kicking the body away he wiped his mouth.

"Ryan? Ryan I think I've found her!" He sprinted back into the corridor, following her voice he found Lucy stood outside a metal door, he ripped through the metal shredding the door and almost collapsed in relief. She was there, she was skinny, dirty and weak but she was perfect. She was his. Ignoring the pain he ripped the gold chains from her wrists and gathered her tiny body in his arms, cradling her against his chest he showered kisses on her face and neck.

"Oh Lily thank god." He kissed her chapped lips then turned to Lucy. "Get on my back." She frowned but complied, holding tight around his shoulders. Then quicker than she could believe he sprinted from the castle and away from the hidden land.

*

She awoke slowly, she readied herself for the pain that had plagued her every waking moment but it never came. Slowly she realised she was lying in a soft bed, she was warm for the first time in months and her shackles had finally been removed. She tried to sit up and a pair of soft hands held her arm, she flinched from the contact and curled in on herself to avoid further punishment.

"Shhh Lily, Lily it's me." 

Tentatively she looked around and gazed into Lucy's warm brown eyes. "Lucy, is it really you?"

Slowly the elf reached out and Lily flinched again, Lucy's hand continued and she very gently pushed a curl from the girls dirt covered forehead. "It's really me, it's ok. You're safe now."

Lily trembled then seemed to break down throwing herself into the arms of the elf sobbing into her red hair. "Lucy he's gone. Ryan's gone. The Angel's. The got him, he's dead Lucy. My Ryan is dead."

"Oh no, no honey he's not. He was the one who found you."

Lily pulled back and shook her head violently. "No, he told me Ryan was killed. He's gone and all of this," she gestured wildly around the room. "Is just a dream. You're not real."

"Hello poppet." A deep voice made her jump and she looked towards the door, Ryan stood there tall, under his arm was a bowl of warm soapy water and a towel was flung over his shoulder. "You were starting to smell baby I was going to give you a sponge bath."

Her dark eyes searched her face and under the teasing she saw a pain so raw it felt like her heart was being ripped in two. He put the bowl down on the bedside table and stood at the edge of the bed watching her.

"Good to have you back kiddo." 

She choked back a sob and grabbed hold of his wrist, pulling him onto the bed next to her she curled against his side trying to feel as much of him against her still naked skin as she could, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead. Vaguely he heard the door shut as Lucy left the room, he ran his hands over her body as though trying to convince himself she were real, her bones still jutted out from her fragile skin and she felt as though any sudden movement would make her shatter in his arms.

"Oh god, I missed you so much." His voice was husky as he tried to keep his emotions in check, her shoulders shook with silent sobs and she nestled closer to him.

"He told me you were dead."

"While you were gone it felt like I was."

"I missed you Raim," he frowned at the use of his true name and wondered what she had gone through while she was away.

He kissed her dirty hair. "I missed you too Lilith. So much." He moved away slightly and she looked up confused. "I'm going to run you a bath, your skin still feels freezing." He stood but didn't move from the edge of the bed. "Aaron will stay here with you." He kissed her forehead against and smoothed her hair back. "I won't be long."

She sat against the soft pillows, hugging her knees to her naked chest. The door opened again and she quickly pulled the sheet up to cover her naked form, staring at the door with a look of fear on her face she unconsciously shrank in on herself to avoid punishment.

"Please little lady. Don't ever be scared of me." He stayed a few feet from the bed as though he himself were scared to touch her. She looked shyly up at him and he reached out to take her hand, falling to his knees next to the bed he kissed her knuckles before pressing her palm against his cheek. He sighed as the feel of her skin sent a rush of warmth through him as the faint bond reconnected between them. She gasped at the feeling and placed her other hand on his other cheek, sliding from the bed she knelt opposite him and rested her forehead against his.

They're eyes met and they stared at each other for countless minutes, his hands came to rest about her ribcage his thumbs bracketing the underneath of her breasts.

"You're so tiny." His voice was breathy as he held her gently. "I'm afraid I might break you." Her chapped lips parted slightly and she moved forward, she kissed the corner of his mouth and hugged him tightly.

"You helped him find me?" He nodded. "Thank you." The door to the en-suite bathroom opened and Ryan smiled at the sight of his mate and his Follower.

Lily turned and stood, Aaron stayed knelt on the floor his head bent as though ashamed, she kissed his head and followed Ryan into the bathroom. He shut the door behind them and she as soon as he turned he pulled her against his chest crushing his lips to hers and feeling her moan against his lips, she reached on tiptoe to press herself closer enjoying the feeling of a gentle touch after so long.

His hands slid down her back to the curve of her ass and kneaded the softness, she groaned and pushed forward but he pulled away, his hands balled into fists at his sides.

"No." She frowned and took a step towards him. "No poppet, its been too long and I would be too rough with you. I don't want to hurt you." He lifted her into the tub then stripping to his boxers he climbed in and sat facing her, he took a soft sponge and lathered bubbles into it. He ran the sponge over her arms washing the dirt and grime from her body, turning her he pulled her between his legs. 

He scooped warm water into a jug and poured it over her knotted curls, she moaned as the sweat and dirt was washed from her hair and he massaged her scalp. Her head fell backwards to rest on his shoulder, his large hands smoothed over her shoulders and down to gently cup her breasts, she hissed in a breath and tensed but he kept his hands still until she once again relaxed against him, he brushed over her nipples with the tips of his fingers. She shuddered and her breathing quickened as fear gripped her and she went completely still in his arms.

"How long was I there?" Her voice was quiet.

"Four months." As he spoke he brushed over her nipples again, she still tensed yet noticeably less.

"I know who took me."

He stilled for a fraction of a second before circling her nipple with a finger. "Who was he?"

"Abdiel, we used to be friends." She shuddered as he pinched her nipple gently and moaned at the first feelings of pleasure in months. "Is he dead?"

"Yes." His other hand rested lightly on her flat stomach and she gasped jerking backwards from his hand. He kept it there, his touch gentle until he felt her relax and began rubbing small circles over her abdomen.

"He said that I was his mate and you stole me from him." His hand slid lower as she spoke but she seemed not to realise.

"How could you be his mate, it is forbidden."

"He said he wanted you to feel what he did. He hurt me Raim." He growled as her heard tears in her voice and pulled her onto his lap, turning her head he kissed her, his tongue working past her lips, which had begun to heal as her strength returned from the gold chains, he lifted her at the waist, his hands almost stretched around her completely and he turned her so she faced him straddling his legs. He deepened the kiss cradling the back of her head with one hand. Tearing himself away he spoke between panting breaths.

"Don't cry Lilith, please don't cry."

She bracketed his face with her hands and kissed him again hungrily, her hips moved against him without her thinking and she groaned into his mouth, her lifted her and positioned himself at the entrance to her pussy, he then held himself still allowing her a moment to think. Her breathing was shallow and he eyes closed, taking a deep breathing she thrust her hips slightly. The feeling of his thick cock at her opening sent a nauseating wave of agony through her stomach as she remembered the suffering she had felt at the hands of her captors.

"No," the word was a choked sob and she scrambled to the other end of the bath, her eyes were wide with terror in her pale face.

"Lily hush, it's me I won't hurt you." They stayed motionless each staring at the other, finally she seemed to calm and he lifted her from the tub placing her in front of him on the tiled floor he wrapped her in a towel and held her to him.

"We'll go slow, I promise I won't do anything that you do not want to happen. If you tell me to stop then I'll stop." He carried her through and lay her on the bed, gently he towelled her dry and went to stand. She caught his wrist a look of pleading on her face, gently she pulled him back to the bed and sought his lips with hers, and he moved to lie between her legs. Gently he kissed down her neck and took a small pink nipple between his lips, he flicked his tongue across the surface and she shuddered against him. Her hands gripped his hair trying to pull him closer and he teased her nipple with his teeth.

"Oh god, Raim." He trailed kisses to her other breast and her other nipple was treated to the same, she moaned quietly and brought her leg to wrap around his hips, he moved back up her body and took her lips once again in a kiss, his hand reached between their bodies and his hand slid over her smooth mound, one finger found her clit and rubbed gently and she tensed against him.

He stilled his hand but didn't remove it from her skin, he kissed her again before sucking on her neck trying to calm her, slowly he once again began to circle the small nub of flesh and her legs tightened around his waist her breath coming in short, sharp pants against his ear. She lifted her hips encouraging him to go inside her but he shook his head.

"Not yet baby, you're not ready." He continued to rub her clit his lips roaming the skin of her neck and shoulder and she began to moan quietly, a pleasure built deep inside her and she held his tighter unsure of what to do. "Relax poppet. Don't fight it."

"Oh god, Raim." Her whole body trembled as her orgasm washed over her and her nails dragged down his neck making him growl in pain, his cock was stiff and throbbing and he had to quell the urge to slide into her and fuck her until he came. Instead he smoothed her back from her flashed cheeks and kissed her parted lips.

"Sleep now Lilith, you must be tired." He rolled off her and pulled her back against his chest, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist he breathed in her familiar scent and finally felt himself truly relax.

"Why did you call me Lilith?"

He smiled against the nape of her neck. "The same reason you have called me Raim since you came back. To remind me of what we are and what will happen to us, what nearly did happen to us."

"I meant what I said, before they took me. I want to stay with you."

"You do?" She nodded and he held her closer. 

"Thank you," he kissed her shoulder. "Now sleep. I'll be here when you wake up."

*

For the next week she was confined to the bed, she was brought food and drink and only left the bed to bathe and use the bathroom. Her every waking moment she spent with either Aaron or Lucy and she shared a bed with her mate every night. So far he had refused to touch her the way she craved instead pleasuring her with his tongue and fingers without ever going inside her.

She sat in bed in a short silk nightie, a tray of food on the covers between her and Aaron, the room was lit by the soft light of a dim lamp. Aaron stared at her discreetly, she was beginning to put the weight back on, her bones no longer so noticeable through her skin, the sunken pits of her eyes and cheeks had fleshed out and in absence of the gold chains her bruises were gone. She picked at the food and sighed.

"What's the matter little lady?"

She shook her head still looking at the food. "It's nothing."

He took the tray and placed it on the bedside table before moving closer to her. "Now I know that's a lie."

She sighed again. "Its Ryan, he won't touch me. Like maybe he doesn't want me anymore."

Aaron let out a bark like laugh and reached out to stroke her cheek. "Don't be stupid." Grasping her neck slightly, he stroked the soft skin with his thumb. "How could anyone resist you?" he trailed his fingertips down her chest to the exposed tops of her soft breasts, she drew a shaky breath and stared at the sight of his dark skin against her pale softness and she moved closer to him. Slowly their lips met and he groaned in pleasure as he finally tasted her, his hand moved to cup her breast fully and she arched her back pushing hard against his palm, their kiss became more frantic until she wrenched herself back from him. They're eyes met as they breathed heavily and she once again found herself lost in the amber depths. "You're really very tempting little lady." He took his hand from her and she instantly missed the warmth of him against her skin, he stood and turned to the bed. "I should go," leaning down he kissed her cheek softly then her forehead before leaving the room.

Guilt gripped her as she sat alone and the minute Ryan entered the room she leapt up and flung herself into his arms.

"Ryan, oh god Ryan I'm so sorry." He held her at arm's length and grinned.

"You slept with Aaron?"

She shook her head violently. "No! I only kissed him."

"Good, it's a start I guess." She stared up at him in disbelief.

"Is that what you want? You've had enough of me so you give me to your Follower without a thought. Am I really so repulsive to you?"

"You are the most beautiful thing I have ever seen."

She hit his chest hard and he stumbled slightly. "Then why won't you touch me?"

"Because I might hurt you, I won't be able to control myself and after what you suffered at the hands of an Angel I never want to see you anything but blissfully happy again. I would rather see you with Aaron then hurt you by accident."

She took a step towards and pushed his chest again. "Do not forget that I am Fallen too, you do not need to treat me like spun glass."

"I'm trying to help you."

"But refusing me your love?" she pushed him again. "What kind of help is that?!" She raised her hand to slap him but he caught her wrist in his hand.

"Lilith, be careful. Make sure you know what you're doing." His teeth were gritted and he trembled.

"I do not need you to tell me what to do." She yanked her hand from his grasp. They stared at each other, eyes blazing. Finally she pushed him aside ad walked towards the door.

"Be careful Lilith. If you leave now I won't be here when you come back."

"Then I will live without your touch." She opened the door but before she could leave his muscled arm came past her face slamming the door. 

"Let me go!" She turned and immediately her voice died in her throat at the look on his face, a mixture of fury, lust and grief.

He lifted her into his arms and kissed her harshly, his stubble scratched her soft skin and his strong fingers kneaded her ass. She grabbed handfuls of his hair and yanked his head back baring his throat, with one hand she ripped his t-shirt from his body leaving it in tatters on the floor, running her hands up his bare chest she ran her tongue across his bottom lip before slapping his face hard. He growled and slammed her against the door knocking the breath from her.

He pushed the short skirt of her nightie up around her hips the reaching between them pushed his jeans and underwear to the floor and kicking them away, kissing her again her pushed the first couple of inches of his thick cock into her tight wetness and groaned loudly, it had been so long since he'd been inside of her. She breathed heavily, she had expected tearing pain as she had become accustomed to, instead the intense wave of pleasure made her back arch and she cried out against his lips.

He held himself still inside her his whole body shaking with the effort, she tried to pull him closer with her legs around his waist. He pulled back before sliding in again slightly deeper this time, she grabbed handfuls of his hair and pulled his head back so she could look into his eyes.

"Ryan, please."

He snarled and shook his head. "No, you wanted your Demon, you use his true name."

"Raim." 

"Good little Demon." She tensed at the phrase. 

"Did he call you that?" She nodded. "Do not think of him any more little Demon, he is dead and I will keep you safe."

"Say it again."

"My. Little. Demon." He thrust on each word until finally he was buried deep inside her.

"Oh god." Her grip tightened on his hair and she hissed in a breath at the feeling of being filled, she rolled her hips against him and he pressed her back against the door his breathing ragged.

"Lilith please I don't want to hurt you."

"I am not a fragile little girl, you will not break me."

His hips began to move tentatively against her. "Harder." He sped up slightly pressing deeper inside her. "Harder." He went deeper still, gritting his teeth trying to keep control. She raked her nails down his back leaving deep gauges that bled heavily. "Harder." Her voice was desperate and he cried out. His hips began moving fervently against her thrusting in and out violently, he took a wrist in each hand and held the against the door, he still held all her weight on his legs and the rhythm of his thrusts never changed. Freeing one wrist he ran a finger down the front of her nightie before ripping it open allowing her perky breasts to bounce free. He took her wrist again and bent his head to take a nipple between his lips.

She moaned and pushed her breast to his mouth, her hands balled into fists against the door and she pushed against him, meeting him thrust for thrust. For the first time in months she felt the building of pleasure in her abdomen, a cry ripped from her throat and she dropped her forehead onto his shoulder.

"Cum for me, my little Demon, let me feel you."

"Raim I can't."

"You can," he gently bit her neck and she tensed around him, the waves of her orgasm washed over her and she cried out again, louder this time. He felt her pussy tighten around his cock and groaned against her neck.

He wrapped his arms around her waist once more and carried her to the bed, he lay her down gently and kissed her.

"I'm sorry," his voice was low and he stroked her cheek. "I never wanted to make you feel like I didn't want you." 

She turned them until she straddled his waist staring down at him, reaching out she wrapped her fingers around his throat. "Just make sure you never do it again." Pushing herself up she began to move up and down on his thick cock, he stared at her face as she fucked herself on his feeling his own pleasure build even as he watched hers, she rested her hands on his muscles thighs and her hips thrust faster against him.

"Oh god, Lilith." His shout was loud as he came his hips lifting from the bed taking her with him and she came a second time before collapsing onto his chest. Her body trembled and she worked hard to calm her breathing. He kissed the top of her head and pulled the sheets to cover their naked bodies.

"I love you Raim." Her eyes closed and she yawned.

"I love you too, sleep now Lilith. I promise, I will never leave you again."



Tormented Ch. 07



When he woke the next morning she wasn't in his bed. Panic gripped him and he leapt from the bed, he ran from the room pulling his sweatpants on as he went and shouted for her. There was no answer. He searched every room his panic growing as each once proved no sign of her.

"Aaron!" His Follower was there in seconds his face showing the worry he had felt from his Master and his eyes frantic. "She's gone. We need to find her."

"Yes Master," Aaron pulled out his phone and dialled a number, while he spoke Ryan returned to his room and stepped into a pair of trainers and pulled a grey t-shirt over his head, Aaron waited outside when he emerged. "Lucy is on her way."

"Good, we'll split up when she gets here, we need to find her."

"Yes Master."

Lucy was there in less than ten minutes, she breezed into the room and took hold of Ryan's hands, a calm washed over him at the contact and he took a deep breath.

"We'll find her." Lucy's voice was soft and she stroked his cheek gently.

"We need to, Lucy I want you to..."

Before he could finish his sentence they heard the lift once again arrive outside his door, they turned expectantly and a rush a calm enveloped the three as Lily walked into the room, she wore a tight pair of running shorts and a sports bra, her hair was tied in a high ponytail and her entire body was covered in a thin sheen of sweat. She started when she saw three staring at her and frowned but with a smile on her face.

"Well I wasn't expecting a welcoming committee."

"Where have you been?"

Her smile disappeared from her face at the furious tone of his voice and she frowned.

"I went for a run." She placed her hands on her curved hips and raised an eyebrow. "Is there something wrong with this?"

"You should have told me."

Lucy cleared her throat and took Aaron's arm. "We're going to go," she kissed Lily's cheek as she went past. "We'll see you soon kid." 

The door shut behind them and the two Demon's stood staring at each other in silence.

"You can't just leave without telling me. From now on you are with me, Lucy or Aaron, never alone."

She laughed in disbelief and folded her arms. "So I have no time to myself now? What about when I shower will one of you be chaperoning me to the bathroom."

He took a menacing step towards her his eyes flashing. "This isn't fucking funny."

"Does it look like I find this funny?"

"You will not do anything without telling me." He moved closer until their chests were almost touching and she had to crane her neck to look up at him.

"Are you fucking serious?!" Her own voice was growing in anger and her pretty face was marred by a snarl. "I don't have to tell you anything."

"Stop acting like a petulant teenager. You will tell me everything that you are doing and you will not leave this flat." He reached out and grabbed her arm his fingers digging painfully into her skin.

"I will do whatever the fuck I want to do Ryan. I was just kept as a prisoner for four months I will not be made to feel like that again and," here she ripped her arm from his grip and moved back from him. "Never think that you can intimidate me into doing something. I was scared for too long when the Angel's had me and you're fucking crazy if you think that I will let myself feel like that again in my own home."

Turning she walked towards the door. "Where are you going?"

Without looking back she spat over her shoulder. "I don't have to tell you." She jumped as he grabbed her wrist and yanked her round, he pushed her until her back hit the door and pressed against her his lips finding hers, she could feel the desperation in his kiss but pushed him away from her. "You won't stop me."

He turned her and pressed her against the door, taking both wrists in his hand he held them in front of her trapped between her body and the wood, leaning down he kissed the back of her neck and thrust his hips against her ass. She struggled against him but his anger made him too strong, his other hand smoothed down her back, over her ass and between her legs. Slipping his hand into her shorts he growled as he felt her wetness and pushed a finger inside her, she groaned and pushed back against his hand despite of herself. He released her hands and she pressed them against the door, he ripped her shorts off her body and threw the tattered remains away from them, he added a second finger and she growled.

"Get off me Ryan." 

He didn't answer instead kneeling and pulling her hips away from the door until she bent over and he could see her sweet pussy between her legs. Leaning forward he blew gently on her slit and felt her shudder, he slapped her ass hard.

"Don't fucking move." She whimpered in pain and jerked away from him, he spanked her again and she stilled entirely. "I said, don't fucking move." Licking the soft folds of her pussy he collected her sweet juices on his tongue savouring her taste. 

He wrapped his arms around her legs pulling her closer to his mouth and suckled on her clit, she whined and dropped her head against the door, he bit down hard and she cried out in pain.

"Ryan stop." He slapped her ass again and she moaned.

"Don't tell me to stop, you're mine and I will have you." He stood and undressed quickly; rubbing the head of his thick cock up and down her slit he heard her groan and slid inside her, her fingers curled into the wood of the door leaving deep gauges. He thrust hard into her dragging a scream from her throat and she pushed herself harder against him.

"Fuck you Ryan."

He laughed and leant forward to kiss her shoulder. "Not still angry are we poppet?"

"Bite me," nipping her shoulder he ran his hand over her ass enjoying the feeling of her soft skin in his hands once more.

Turning her so she faced him he lifted her into his arms and slid back into her, she groaned and dropped her head to his shoulder, he cupped her ass in his big hands and thrust hard in and out of her tight pussy while she moaned. Her nails curled into his back and when he met her eyes again they had turned red, he growled and taking a wrist in each hand he held them against the door while, leaning in he allowed his fangs to grow so they rested on his bottom lip before biting her collarbone hard, she cried out as blood ran down her chest soaking the sports bra she still wore. She wrestled a hand free and ripped the materiel from her body allowing her breasts to bounce free, then she tangled her fingers into his hair pulling his head back and exposing his throat. She licked down his neck as the warning clench in her stomach signalled her orgasm, as she came she bit his neck drinking the warm blood as it flowed from his vein. A guttural yell ripped from his throat and came hard, they panted heavily their bodies covered in sweat and she dropped her head to his shoulder.

"I hate fighting with you Ryan." 

"I always liked your feisty side."

She laughed and kissed his softly, stroking her cheek he placed her feet back on the floor, his face turned almost nervous.

"What did you mean before?"

She cocked her head to the side. "When?"

"'In my own home'. You said you will not feel like this again in your own home."

"Well I thought I was staying with you. I assume you meant I would live here." He threaded his fingers through her hair cradling her head and kissed her, a huge smile curved his lips and he kissed her again unable to find the words to say. Leaning his forehead against hers he kissed her nose.

"I have to go out tomorrow baby, I have some business to sort out but I will be back for dinner."

"Ok, I'll go get some food in and cook, about six ok for you to eat?"

"You won't go out."

She frowned and took a step back from him placing her hands on her hips. "What?"

"I've already told you, you are not leaving this flat."

"You've got to be fucking joking me! I'm not staying in flat for the rest of my life."

"I've told you, you are not leaving! I'll have Lucy come and keep you company."

She looked at him in disbelief before shaking her head and moving to walk past him, he reached out and grabbed her arm, stopping her. "Where are you going?"

She yanked her arm free from his grip and stared at him with a sneer on her beautiful face. "I'm going to have a shower, or do I need a fucking chaperone there as well?"

"I'm trying to keep you safe."

"You were there Ryan, he took me and you were there. You didn't do so good a job keeping me safe then." 

He gaped at her as she turned and walked away from him. She was right, he had been there and hadn't been able to do a thing to stop her being taken, he heard the shower start and followed her through to his room, he pulled on a pair of boxers and sitting on the bed he watched her silhouette through the glass of the shower door as guilt ran through his body. He hadn't been able to keep her safe, so how could he claim to now?

She stepped from the shower and dried herself quickly, then taking a bikini from her drawer she dressed and rested her sunglasses on her nose.

"Where are you going?"

Her voice was exasperated when she answered. "To the balcony, or am I not even allowed out there?"

He hung his head and nodded. "Course you can kid."

She left without another word and he felt a deep sadness. He didn't see her again until that night, she hadn't eaten with him instead staying outside on the lounger until the sun had, she came into their room and changed into a loose vest and short pyjama bottoms, she crawled into bed then turning on her side faced away from him.

He lay on his back not touching her, they lay in silence in the dark until finally she reached behind her and took hold of his wrist, she pulled his arm around her waist, fitting her body to his. With a relieved sigh he curled around her small form.

"I'm sorry I got so angry." Her voice was soft and she stroked his arm as it wrapped around her.

"Don't be sorry, I love you for fighting."

"So what time will you be back tomorrow? I'll make something special."

"About seven, write a list and I'll have Lucy pick it up."

"You don't have to do that, she does enough already. I'll go."

He sighed. "Lily, you're not leaving the flat."

She didn't say a word, instead moved away from him, his arm slipped from her skin and he sighed mentally kicking himself for what he was doing.

"I'm doing this for you poppet."

She remained silent and he stared at her back until she fell asleep, when her breathing was soft and even he gently pulled her back against his chest breathing her in. He was still petrified that one day he would wake up and she would be back in limbo. Shaking his head he kissed her soft hair and fell asleep with her in his arms.

She woke before him, she could feel the hard length of his cock against her ass and pushed back against him.

"Hmm, you forgive me?" His voice was husky from sleep and his arms tightened around her middle.

"Not quite, you do know I have trouble with authority."

"Lily I'm sorry but.."

"Shh, let's not fight again." Pushing back harder against him he heard a smile creep into her voice. "Just show me how sorry you are for treating me like a baby."

With a feral grin he flipped her onto her back and lay back between her legs, he supported his weight on his muscled arms and rolled his hips against her, she moaned softly and arched her back pressing her breasts against him. She tangled her fingers into his hair and kissed him, wrapping her legs around his waist she held him tightly to her. 

He gently grasped her neck and turned her head to the side, he kissed her neck before nipping her earlobe and enjoyed her shudder. 

"Just keep still baby." He kissed the other side of her neck. "Keep still." Moving his hand from her neck he slid it between their bodies gently caressing her soft breasts through the fabric of her vest feeling her nipples harden under his fingers, pushing the materiel away he leant down an took a nipple in his mouth. She moaned at the feeling of his hot tongue bathing the sensitive skin and her hands left his hair instead grabbing handfuls of the pillow behind her head, his teeth teased her and she pushed her hips to his.

"Ryan." He moved from her breasts and slid down her body, throwing her legs over his shoulders he looked up the length of her body a wicked smile curving his lips, tearing the fabric of her shorts he pulled them away and tossed the tattered remains onto the floor. Flicking his tongue along her slit he groaned at the taste of her, she was sweet and wild and perfect. And his. Wrapping his arms around her hips he circled her clit with the tip of his tongue, she groaned and, propping her feet on his back, pushed her pussy harder against his mouth. He laughed softly and gave her what she wanted sucking gently on her clit and sliding a finger into her tight pussy.

"Oh Ryan please."

Moving back up her body he kicked his boxers down his legs and off the bed, with one thrust he buried his cock deep inside her and groaned as her wet heat gripped his length. Her legs wrapped tightly around his waist and she thrust up to meet him, he looked into her dark eyes and leant to run his tongue across her lower lip.

"My little Demon." She no longer flinched at his use of the name instead her eyes flashed and she rolled them, pushing herself up she rested her hands on his chest. Tossing her head back she flicked her hair over her shoulder and began to roll her hips against him in a steady rhythm. He groaned his hand coming to rest on her waist and allowed her to pleasure herself with him, her head fell back and her long hair tickled his thighs. Raising her hips until only the tip of his cock remained inside her she slid down slowly her tight pussy massaging his length.

With a growl he rolled them again and pressed her into the mattress with his weight, taking hold of her wrists he pressed them down against the bed and she moaned at not being able to touch him, he pushed himself up and watched as her breasts moved on her chest as he thrust into her.

"Promise me you'll stay in the flat today."

"Really? This again."

He slowed his thrusts and winked. "Yes this again, promise me."

"Ryan you can't expect me to stay here like a kept woman." She pushed herself up onto her elbows and kissed him. "I need fresh air, I'm practically feral."

He bit the blunt of her chin and rolled his hips once. "My wild girl, but please promise me."

"Why is it you only ever ask me to promise something when you're inside me?"

"Because this is the only time you ever listen to me, you're very difficult poppet."

She pushed her hips up and he groaned. "Fine, I promise I wont leave the flat today."

"Uh uh you're not getting out of that." His eyes were full of laughter and he pressed harder into her leaving her breathless. "Not just today, you will not leave this flat."

"Tell you what, tomorrow you can convince me again. Then we're both happy."

With a menacing growl he started up his thrusting rhythm again and she cried out. Wrenching her hands free she raked her nails down his back and he muffled his cry against her shoulder, his hips hit into hers with an almost painful force and she cried out again as her pleasure built.

"Oh, Ryan." Her voice was a husky shout as she came her whole body trembling, he held himself deep inside her and jetted rope after rope of cum into her tight depths. He collapsed on top of her and let out a breathless laugh.

"If this is the way I need to convince you to stay inside everyday I'm more than happy to do that."

She tucked a blonde curl behind his ear and kissed him. "Do you really have to go today?"

He stood from the bed and rummaged through a drawer until he found a pair of clean boxers. "Afraid so kid, I have businesses to run."

"Businesses?" She turned onto her stomach and propped her chin on a fist.

"Yeah, I have a couple of restaurants and a nightclub. I figured I was going to be here a while I might as well make some of my own money while I was here."

"You own the place we went to last week?" He nodded as he selected a crisp white shirt and black suit from the wardrobe. She watched him dress enjoying the feeling of normality, for second she could almost believe they were a normal couple in love. "When will you be back?"

"About six," he splashed some cologne on his neck before returning to the bed to kiss her goodbye. "Why not get Lucy over? She loves internet shopping and I'm sure you two can work out where I keep my credit cards." She caught him round the back of the neck and kissed him again.

"You know, I'm starting to warm to the idea of being a kept woman." She scrambled out of bed and he heard the shower start. Smiling to himself he left the flat, locking the door behind him. In the hall he chanted the spells that Lucy had given him preventing anything harmful from getting in or out and headed downstairs to where Aaron waited for him.

"How did she take it?" Aaron's voice was filled with amusement and Ryan rolled his eyes.

"Only as I expected. We may all be from hell but even I pray to god I ont get hurt when she gets mad."

*

His day passed in a haze of accounting meeting, paperwork signings, employee reviews and stock intakes and when he finally returned home at gone seven he braced himself for another telling off from his mate.

"Lily?" He stepped through the front door and looked around tentatively. "Baby I'm back, sorry I'm late." There was no answer and he frowned worry instantly clenching his stomach. "Lily?"

Walking slowly through the flat he listened for any sound. "Lily?" Pushing open the door to the bedroom he scanned the room, as soon as he stepped through the door a blinding pain gripped him and he was pushed to his knees.

"Raim, it's good to see you again. I don't believe we were properly introduced last time, my name is Abdiel." 

Ryan dragged his head up to stare into the Angels piercing blue eyes. 

"You don't look happy to see me Raim, look Lilith your little boyfriend doesn't look happy to see me at all."

Ryan stared at the bed and finally saw Lily, gold chains were wrapped around her arms pinning them to her sides while her wrists were held behind her back, black silk had been tied as a gag so she couldn't speak and a Follower sat behind her, her hair tangled in one large hand keeping her bloodshot eyes on Abdiel and Ryan. She wore a short red silk dressing gown with black lace underwear beneath and the Follower's free hand roamed over her soft breasts.

She tried to call out for him but the gag only allowed a muffled groan out. As tears coursed down her cheeks Abdiel tutted.

"Look at what you've done Raim, you've made her cry." The Angel finished tying Ryan's hands with another length of gold chain leaving him immobile on the floor in pain. "You see Lilith, this is why you should have chosen me as a mate."

She dropped her head to her chest and struggled against her bonds.

"Look your problem is obviously with me so let her go." Ryan's voice was shaking with pain but strong as he looked up at their captor with hate in his eyes. "I think you've already done enough to her."

"Well aren't you the gentleman." Abdiel stood beside the bed and ripped the gag from Lily's mouth. "What do you have to say to your knight in shining armour then Lilith? Say thank you." 

"Ryan I'm so sorry, I don't know how he got in."

"It's ok poppet, don't cry."

"Oh how touching, even a Demon has some sense of decency." Abdiel's voice was condescending and he sank onto the bed, grabbing a handful of her long hair he dragged her towards him until she fell across his lap, he wrapped an arm around her waist, his hand around her throat and leant down to whisper into her ear, Ryan couldn't hear what he was saying but her face crumpled as fresh tears rolled down her face. He jerked his eyes away from them and looked around the room, he could see three Followers, one still sat on the bed and two stood behind him.




Tormented Ch. 07



Abdiel threw her back across the bed making her robe bunch around her waist revealing her lace knickers, the Follower grabbed her again and held her still on the bed. Abdiel moved to stand in front of Ryan again and knelt so he could look into his eyes.

"She was meant to be mine, and you took her from me. And now I'm going to make you sorry you were ever born."

Ryan spat and it landed on the Angels cheek, with a snarl Abdiel struck his face snapping Ryan's head to the side.

"Ryan! Abdiel please stop this!" Lily struggled against her captor kicking violently trying to get away.

"Shut the fuck up! Hold him still." The other Followers each grabbed an arm holding him up. Abdiel took a gold knife from the waistband of his jeans.

"No please don't hurt him!" Lily's voice was frantic as she struggled harder. "Please, I'll go with you."

Abdiel and Ryan turned their eyes to the her. "What?" The Angels voice was shocked and distrustful.

"I'll come back with you, just please don't hurt him."

"Poppet what are you doing?" Ryan stared at her with hurt in his green eyes. She refused to look at him instead keeping her attention on the Angel.

"If you let him go, I'll go with you. I promise."

Abdiel moved to the bed and took Lily's chin between a thumb and forefinger. "I wish I could trust you my little Demon," his blue eyes hardened. "I really wish I could." He looked at his Follower. "Keep her still."

"No! please leave him alone!" 

Ryan stared into the eyes of the Angel, the glinting blade held in his hand and a murderous look on his face. "You shouldn't have taken her from me Raim." He looked over his shoulder, Lily's head was turned from them, her eyes closed. "Make sure she looks, I want her to see this."

The Follower grabbed her chin and turned her head back to the Angel and Demon. Her eyes met Ryan's and he smiled sadly at her, tears rolled down her cheeks as she stared at her mate.

"Don't cry poppet. I'll be ok." 

"I love you." Her voice was barely a whisper.

"I love you too kid."

"Ugh," Abdiel stared back and forth between the two. "I've always hated romantic moments." With one quick movement he drove the knife into Ryan's chest.

"No!" Lily screamed and went limp her head dropping forwards as a agonising pain ripped through her chest. "Oh god no. Ryan."

Abdiel kicked the lifeless body away and wiped the blade on his jeans.

"Ryan, please wake up."

The Angel walked back to the bed and tilted her chin up with a finger. "Why couldn't you have chosen me?" He let go of her and motioned for his followers to follow him, at the door he turned and looked sadly at her limp figure curled on the bed. "Why couldn't you have chosen me?"

*

She woke slowly and stretched, the sun shone in through the window warming her skin and she smiled. Turning onto her side she felt her heart leap at the sight of Ryan asleep at her side, he lay on his back his head cushioned on one arm and for a second she watched the rise and fall of his chest, waiting for him to disappear.

He didn't. 

With a small yell she threw herself onto his chest kissing his lips, his cheeks, his neck, any bit of skin she could. He forced his eyes open and squinted at her, amusement on his face.

"Morning baby, what's got into you?"

She shook her head and kissed him lingeringly, he smiled against her lips and sat up wrapping his arms around her waist. She rolled her hips against him and felt him grow between her thighs, lifting herself she positioned the head of his thick cock at her opening before sliding slowly onto him. He groaned and kissed her neck sucking gently on the skin leaving a small mark.

She worked her hips up and down revelling in the feeling of him inside her, he wrapped one hand around the back of her neck and stared into her dark eyes. Thrusting his hips he felt a swell of pride at her breathy moans and sped his movements up, she curled her nails into his shoulders and allowed her head to fall forward and rest on his chest.

Her hips moved faster against him and her breath came in short sharp pants against his neck as she felt her orgasm building, he pulled her head back until she looked back at him and kissed her, their tongues duelled as they fucked and she cried out against his mouth as she came. He continued to thrust into her and slid his hand between their bodies until his thumb brushed over her clit. She cried out and her eyes snapped open, fire in their dark depths, he rubbed his thumb over the sensitive nub of flesh and as the silken walls of her pussy clamped around his cock once more they came together.

He fell back against the pillows panting and tucked her hair behind her ear, rolling them so he leant over her he kissed her again and smiled down at her.

"What was that about poppet?"

"I had a horrible dream," a tear leaked from her eye and rolled down her cheek and she turned away embarrassed.

"What happened?"

"I dreamt Abdiel came back, I dreamt he hurt you, I dreamt he killed you." 

He tilted her face back to him and kissed her.

"I'm here baby, you don't need to worry. I just need you to do one thing for me."

She looked at him questioningly. "Anything."

"Wake up poppet."

*

She was in an unfamiliar room, she lay on her back in the spacious bed, her head pounded and when she tried to sit up a lancing pain hit her chest moving through to her stomach.

"Ah," she moaned in pain and turned her head.

"Lily, oh thank god."

Aaron sat by the side of the bed his face showing exhaustion and his eyes bloodshot from worry. She looked around and frowned in confusion.

"Where am I?"

"You're at my house, please try not to move too much."

"Where's Ryan?" 

He bit his lip and took a small hand in both his own. "Don't you remember?" She said nothing and his sighed. "Ryan's gone. He was killed by an Angel."

Lily laughed and shook her head. "No, no that's not true."

"I'm sorry little lady."

"You're lying, he can't be dead."

"Lily."

"No!" Her voice had risen to a piercing scream; she ripped her hand from his grip and curled herself into a ball. "He can't be dead. He can't be. You're lying. He. Can't. Be. Dead!"



Tormented Ch. 08



Sorry it has taken so long to get you this instalment, Uni has preoccupied my life but now I can give Lily and Ryan my full attention again. Thank you for your patience and for sticking with them! Fallen. 

-

They buried Ryan the next day. He was buried in a white coffin in the clearing he had taken her too. She knelt and leant over the open coffin and stared into the lifeless face of her mate, stroking his soft hair she kissed his cold lips, taking a small knife from the strap of her bra she cut off a curl of her hair and placed it under his crossed hands, then running the blade across a pad of her thumb she dabbed her red blood on his lower lip before kissing him again.

"Goodbye Raim. I love you." Standing she shut the lid of the coffin and nodded to Aaron who with Lucy's help lifted the white box and gently lowered it into the hole in the ground. She stood and watched as Aaron piled the dirt back into the hole covering her mate forever. "I'm going to stay here for a while, you guys can go back. I'll meet you later."

"We'll wait by the car, I don't want you walking back by yourself." Lucy's voice was filled grief and Lily took hold of her hand nodded, kissing the elf's cheek she watched the two figures retreating before kneeling at the newly dug grave, resting her hand on the dirt she wiped a tear from her cheek.

"What am I going to do without you Ry?"

"Come on poppet, don't cry." She jumped and whipped around, Ryan stood behind her with a small lopsided grin on his face. Standing slowly she took a tentative step towards him.

"Ryan? Is that you?"

"Anyone else you know look this good in a suit?" She looked his up and down, he wore the grey suit he had been buried in and a crisp white shirt, she took another step towards him holding out her hand, he linked his fingers with hers and pulled her against him body, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her hair. "How are you doing baby?"

"I'm fine, are...are you real?"

"For now."

She slid her arms around his waist and breathed in his familiar comforting scent. "I thought you were dead."

He sighed and rested his chin on top of her head. "Don't worry about me baby, just keep yourself safe. Keep yourself happy."

"How can I be happy? I need you back."

He held her at arm's length and smiled down at her. "I haven't gone anywhere poppet." He leant and kissed her lips. "I'm right here."

When her eyes opened she was alone in the clearing, taking a steadying breath she went back to the car, Aaron and Lucy waited patiently, his arm around the elf's shoulder his chin rested atop her head. As Lily emerged from the trees the two turned their heads and smiled weakly at her.

"You ready?" A tear rolled down Lucy's cheek as she spoke and nodding Lily pulled her into a hug.

"Let's go, we can stay at my house. There is plenty of room for us all there."

"You're sure?" Aaron spoke from beside them.

"Of course, come on we'll stop and pack you guys a bag." She climbed into the back seat of the car. Aaron watched her for a moment before he a Lucy joined her into the car.

By the time they arrived back at her apartment building the sun was setting casting a pink glow across the sky, she smiled hello to Luca and they all piled into the lift.

In her apartment she turned and smiled at the pair. "My room's upstairs but there's two more through there," she pointed along the hall. "And another upstairs, pick whichever you want. I'll make dinner, it's been a long day."

They watched as she moved to the spacious kitchen and began pulling pots and pans from the cupboards, they took the bedrooms downstairs. Both were huge with large windows overlooking the sea, a bathroom separated the two rooms and was stocked with fluffy white towels and two bath robes.

"Wow, how the fuck do they afford these houses?" Lucy stared around her room in awe, Aaron came up behind her and draped an arm across her shoulders.

"Ryan's money was the Johanson's and she's an incredible dancer, she's been working for decades under different names with different looks and saving the money. She's practically a billionaire."

"You know a lot about her," the elf turned her head to look up at him.

"I share Ryan's life, that includes his love for her and his memories, I know everything about her."

"Then how is she? Really?"

"She's broken but she's a strong girl. She'll keep it together as long as she feels she needs to look out for us."

"Is that why she wants us here?"

"That and she's lonely. She'd just come round to the idea of spending her life with him. We just need to be here for her for now." She rested her head on his shoulder and wiped a tear from her eye.

"I miss him." Her voice broke and he pulled her into a tight hug.

"Me too," kissing her forehead he pulled back. "Come on, I hear she's an incredible cook."

They sat around a wooden table on the balcony, the air was still warm and the last rays of the sun shone on the water, the table was filled with plates of fried fish, sweet potatoes, spicy green vegetables, sweet, barbeque chicken and warm oven baked rolls. Lily opened a bottle of white wine and poured them each a glass.

"This looks amazing little lady."

She smiled. "Thank you, when you've lived alone for almost four hundred years you pick up a thing or two," she sipped her wine. "I was thinking, you guys know a lot more about whatever businesses he owned, if you want them they're yours."

"Are you sure? You would get all the profits obviously." Lucy stared at her from across the table.

"Does it look like I need the money?" Lily laughed sadly. "They were his and now they're yours." They ate in a companionable silence for a while before Lucy spoke again.

"Can I ask you something?"

With another smile Lily swallowed the food in her mouth and stared at the elf with her head cocked to the side. "You want to know about the hair and blood?"

"If it's personal you don't have to say."

"It's a tradition at the death of one's mate, it began with Lucifer. When he lost Lilith every Demon grieved, at her burial he put a lock of hair in her hands so she would remember him in her next life, the drop of blood on the lips is so when they awaken you are the first thing they taste. It means when you join them in death you will always be able to find each other. It's kind of a screw you to the Angels." She finished her wine and opened another bottle.

"That's beautiful, and they call him Devil," Lucy took the full glass from her and leant back in her seat. "He really did love Lilith didn't he?"

"More than life." She blinked trying to stop the tears from escaping. "Now if you want to join me, I plan on getting so drunk I don't remember my own name. I think we deserve to."

They touched their glasses together and until the early hours of the morning they sat in her living room, her and Lucy on the soft cream sofa and Aaron on the floor his back against the cushions while Lily stroked the soft skin at the back of his neck. They spoke of Ryan and Lily laughed as she remembered all the times they had spent together.

"He broke every bone in his body once when he fell off the Eiffel Tower." They had gone through nearly three bottles of wine each and now drank a smooth creamy liquid that made them even more light headed. "The deal was if he could balance on one leg on the very point for five minutes, I would spend a year with him, he fell after a minute." She laughed and shook her head. "The things he did to try and convince me to stay, another one was if he could last an hour in a cage with four tigers I would have dinner with him."

Lucy and Aaron burst out laughing. "Was he allowed to fight back?" Aaron's eyes sparkled as he laughed and turned to look into her dark eyes.

"Nope, he could try and keep out of their way but when there's four of them you're either backed into a corner or surrounded." She shook her head and lifted her glass. "To Ryan, the only man who can make me this happy even when he's not here. To my mate, best friend and worst enemy."

Aaron lifted his glass. "To my Master and the best man I have ever known, he gave me everything and I never got to say thank you." His eyes shone with tears and Lily leant down to kiss his cheek.

Lucy raised her glass. "To Ryan, he saved my life, gave me a home, a job, a family and made me who I am today. And I never got to thank him properly."

"To Ryan." Lily's voice was husky as she tried to keep her tears at bay.

"To Ryan." They touched glasses and drank, they stayed in the living room until the sun shone through the windows, when the light hit them they finally went to bed.

Lucy woke late and groaned at the pain in her head, turning over she buried her face in the pillow trying to shield her eyes from the bright sunlight. The mouth-watering smell of coffee and bacon reached her nose and she licked her lips, turning onto her side she jumped at the figure in bed next to her.

Aaron turned onto his side and his eyes opened slowly and groaned at the pain in his head. His eyes widened when he saw her before a slow grin spread across his handsome face.

"Morning." His voice was laden with amusement and she blushed.

"We didn't did we?"

"I don't think so," he lifted the covers and looked down, he still wore his dark jeans while she wore white panties and nothing else. "No see, panties still on." His eyes lingered on her on her small breasts, her pink nipples erect.

"Thank god." Jerking his eyes back to her face he smirked.

"Would it really be so bad if we had?"

Her cheeks blushed a deeper pink and she looked down, he tangled his fingers in her soft red hair and gently brushed his lips against hers, her bright eyes widened and he stroked her cheek. "I think if you gave it a chance you might enjoy it." She shook her head and giggled.

"You're just like Ryan, too cocky for your own good."

Aaron winked, sliding an arm around her waist he pulled her body against his feeling her warm skin on his chest, their lips were less than an inch apart and her eyes flashed at him. His hand slid down the soft skin of her back to rest on her rounded ass pulling her intimately against him. He kissed her again and her soft lips parted under his, his tongue slipped into her mouth and he felt her groan against his lips. Her hands smoothed over his dark skin before she wrapped her arms around his neck, he pulled her closer and she gasped at the feel of his long erection against her, she thrust her hips forward without thinking and she began to grind against him.

He rolled them until he lay between her legs holding his weight on his muscled arms, he thrust his hips against her and she moaned bringing her knees up to hug his hips, he kissed her again and smiled down at her.

"Not as bad as you thought huh?"

Her blue eyes flashed in amusement and she rolled her eyes. "You're just like him," she pushed herself onto her elbows and flicked her tongue out to lick the corner of his mouth. "We should go though I think Lily's made breakfast."

He kissed her one last time and rolled his hips against her again. "Fine, but we'll finish this later."

He stood from the bed and pulled her to her feet, his eyes lingered on her small pert breasts and he licked his lips. "Beautiful." He disappeared into his own room and she let out a shaky breath, running her hands through her tangled hair she pulled on a pair of grey sweatpants and a white vest. In the kitchen Lily and Aaron sat at the table, a cup of coffee in front of them. Lily smiled at the elf as she entered and winked.

"Feeling a bit precious are we?"

Lucy poured herself a cup of coffee and leant against the counter. "How are you not hungover?"

"One of the perks of being a Demon, we don't feel the effects of alcohol like you guys will." She pulled her long hair into a messy ponytail and nodded to the oven. "There's pancakes, bacon and sausage keeping warm and there's fruit over there." Lucy loaded a plate with pancakes and bacon and slid into the seat next to Aaron, Lily frowned at the plate and took a sip of her coffee. "I've never understood the whole pancakes and bacon thing, they're two completely different breakfasts. Must be an American thing."

"Where exactly are you from?"

"I spent my first sixteen years in England, hence the accent. Ryan's always been here so I moved here when I first met him. I started making this for him when we first moved in together, it was always his favourite."

"You lived together?" Aaron looked up from his own plate and frowned.

"Yeah for almost a year, we were young enough that the Angel's weren't all that bothered with us. Normally Demon's have ten or fifteen years together before the Angel's track them down but I didn't want to risk it and I left."

"You kept your accent though." Lucy spoke through a mouthful of pancakes and syrup.

"Yeah it's the one thing I kept of my childhood, I always thought it made me sound sexy." She winked and stood from the table, as she took her cup and bowl to the sink Aaron's eyes were drawn to her strong legs and perfect ass in her small shorts, she poured herself another coffee and turned back to the two at the table.

"I have a couple of things to do today, Lucy if you're not planning on doing anything fancy joining me?"

The elf nodded and wiped up the last of the syrup from her plate with her last rasher of bacon, putting her own plate in the sink she stretched.

"How long until you want to leave?"

"An hour?"

Lucy nodded again and watched as Lily walked from the kitchen, she felt as Aaron moved to stand close behind her and he leant down so his lips were inches from her ear.

"Think you can go a whole day without me elf?"

"It's not me you need to worry about Follower," she turned and looked up at him a confident gleam in her eyes, running her finger down his bare chest he hooked it into the waist band of his jeans pulling him closer. She was tall, not tall enough to be eye level with him but, unlike with Lily he didn't tower over her, she kissed his lips lingeringly and walked from the kitchen leaving him slack jawed and staring after her.

He stayed in the kitchen drinking coffee and flipping through the paper while the girls got ready, Lily's soft voice called out a goodbye and he let his breath out. He didn't know if he was going to be able to survive living in a house with the two of them, Lucy the gorgeous exotic creature with flame red hair and blue eyes that could burn hot as fire and cold as ice and Lily, the beautiful Demon who he would always love. Shaking himself he walked to the balcony and collapsed onto one of the reclining chairs turning his face up to the sun, trying to clear his head of any thoughts of the two of them he closed his eyes and enjoyed the warmth of the day.

*

The two arrived back late afternoon, Aaron had not moved from his seat outside and when he heard the door open he dragged himself to his feet, when he saw her his eyes widened and he let out a low whistle. Lily's hair had changed, it hung in a long straight wave past her waist, brushing the curve of her ass, a heavy fringe fell over her forehead and almost into her eyes giving them a dark, smoky look. The biggest change was the colour, it now shone blonde in the sun and she ran her fingers through it smiling at him.

"What do you think?" he moved towards her and twisted a soft lock around his finger, staring down at her with a heated looked in his eyes he wrapped his hand around the back of her neck.

"You look beautiful poppet."

Her eyes widened and she took a step back. "What was that?"

"My perfect little Demon." She shivered at the familiar phrase and cleared her throat.

"Glad you like it, I'm going to have a nap before I make dinner, how does eight sound?"

He nodded and stroked her cheek with a thumb. She practically ran up the stairs, she sat on the edge of her double bed and dropped her head into her hands. For a second it was almost as though Ryan were talking to her, kicking off her shoes she curled into a ball on top of the sheets and shut her eyes.

She lay enjoying the warmth of the sun still streaming through her windows and trying to ignore the dull ache in her chest that his absence still caused, her sensitive hearing picked up on Aaron and Lucy's quiet voices from downstairs and she felt soothed by their presence.

"Hello poppet." Her eyes snapped open and she pushed herself into a sitting position on the bed, Ryan stood over her with a smile on his face, his green eyes flashed as his gaze roamed over her.

"Are you a dream?" Her voice shook as she held back tears.

"No."

"You're real?"

"No." He stepped towards the bed and stroked her hair back from her shoulder. "You've changed your hair, it looks good."

"How are you here?"

He sighed and knelt beside the bed. "Because you need me."

"Then you'll stay?"

"I can't do that." His voice was sad and he tangled his hand into the silken hair at her nape, her hand came to grasp his wrist lightly and she leant her forehead against his.

"I can't do this anymore."

"Do what kid?"

"This, any of it, I can't keep waking up every day and have to remember that you're not here."

"You have to poppet. You have to be strong, for me and for them." He nodded towards the door where the elf and his Follower still spoke together in hushed voices. "They need you and if you let them they can help you."

"Please don't go."

"I have to, but when I do promise me you will try to carry on." She swallowed and nodded. "Say it, let me hear you."

"I promise."

He sighed in relief. "Good girl." He kissed her softly and pulled her to him so her legs wrapped around his waist, holding her to him with one arm he crawled onto the bed and lay her in the middle, it was so wide that they could both fit comfortable across it and he settled himself between her legs, his lips moving down the neck and across her shoulder.

She pulled his t-shirt over his head and ran her hands over the warm skin of his neck and shoulders, kissing him she moaned at the familiar feeling of him against her and pushed her hips harder upwards against him. He removed her own t-shirt taking her bra with it, he kissed each of her soft breasts and heard her sigh, kissing down her stomach he dipped his tongue into her navel and she giggled, he ran his hand up her smooth thigh, exposed in her small shorts and undid the buttons, sliding them down her legs he kissed her through the lace of her panties.

She shivered and threaded her fingers through his hair, he looked up the length of her body and licked his lips. "You taste so good poppet," he slipped her thong down her legs and licked up her slit collecting her sweet juices on his tongue, she moaned and arched her back.

"Oh god Ryan."

He shushed her, his breath tickling her sensitive skin. "Just let me enjoy you baby." His tongue circled her clit and she moaned again, her hands left his hair and clutched at the sheets beneath her head, he worked one finger into her tight heat and pressed her clit with his thumb, he threw her legs over his shoulder and held her hips down to the bed with his forearm across her hips. She tried in vain to thrust her hips against his mouth but couldn't move under his strength.

"Just relax baby." He sucked gently on her clit and she let out a soft cry, he added another finger and curled them upwards hitting the sensitive bundle of nerves inside her and her muscles trembled as she came. He looked up at her flushed face and licked his lips. Crawling up the bed he laid between her legs again and kissed her, slipping his tongue into her mouth he let her taste herself.

He stripped his jeans and boxers down his legs and positioned the head of his thick cock at the entrance of her pussy, she wrapped her arms around his neck and tried to pull him closer.

"Please Ryan, I need you inside me." He grinned and slowly slid the first couple of inches of his length into her tight heat and she moaned, she arched her back and her dark eyes glowed up at him. "Please Ryan."




Tormented Ch. 08



"No no baby, I want to go slow, let me enjoy you." She growled in frustration but lay back on the bed allowing him to move as he wanted to, he thrust his hips against her slowly until his entire length was buried inside her and she moaned at the full feeling. With a soft growl she rolled them so she straddled him and rested her hands on his muscled chest, running her fingers through the soft blonde curls she leant down and kissed him softly, he ran his fingers through her hair and smiled.

"You're beautiful blonde."

"You like it?"

He wrapped the soft locks around his hand and kissed her again. "You're always beautiful." She began to roll her hips against him and pushed herself back to sit atop him, pushing his hands so they rested on the bed beside his head, he snarled showing his sharp fangs and her eyes widened. He grabbed her around the waist and flipped them so he was once again on top, she shivered in fear at the ferocious look on his face and took his face in her trembling hands. He shushed her quietly and kissed her lips, sliding his hands under shoulders he cradled her head in his large hands and kissed her again.

"Shh, it's ok baby." He began to thrust gently against her again and her breathing sped up into short pants against his neck, with one hand he hooked one leg over his shoulder and she cried out as his cock hit even deeper inside her. He wrapped her other leg around his waist and began to piston his hips faster his cock hitting deep inside her and she groaned in a mixture of pleasure and pain.

"Oh god, Ryan I'm going to cum."

He growled and bit her neck tasting her blood. A scream ripped from her throat as she came around him and he slammed his cock to the hilt inside her jetting his hot cum deep in her pussy. He groaned against her neck and collapsed on top of her. He listened to her panting breaths and turned them on their sides so they faced each other, tucking her hair behind her ear he smiled and kissed her nose.

"Do you have to go?"

His smile turned sad and he stroked her cheek. "I was never really here poppet."

She frowned. "What do you mean?"

"I need you to do something."

"Ryan no, please."

"Wake up."

"No please."

She jerked upright and stared around the room, the sun was setting casting a pink glow over her room and she looked round frantically for Ryan. She was alone. Angrily she wiped a tear from her cheek and stood from the bed. Straightening her clothes she gasped and looked down at herself. In place of her small, denim shorts and tight white t-shirt her naked body was swamped in his black one, she brought the neckline to her nose and inhaled his scent still caught in the fabric. Sitting back on the bed she choked back a sob and shook her head.

"He wasn't real Lilith, he wasn't here. You put this on when you came up and dreamt that you were still in your clothes. He wasn't real."

She waited until her breath evened out before standing and dressing quickly in baggy grey sweatpants and a tight white vest. Downstairs she made a quick pasta dish in creamy sauce and called for the others.

They ate together in relative silence and when they were done she excused herself back upstairs, before she went she pointed out where the alcohol was kept and kissed them both on the cheek. Lucy and Aaron moved to the living with a bottle of wine and a glass each. They curled on the sofa and sat watching each other.

Aaron reached out and took her hand, pulling her to him he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her softly, she groaned at his touch and opened her mouth under his. He deepened the kiss sliding his tongue into her mouth, his fingers curling into the soft skin of her waist.

"I thought about you all day." She shuddered at the lust in his voice and pressed herself closer, he lifted her onto his lap so she straddled him and ran his large hands over her ass, she arched her back pressing her small breasts against his chest.

"Aaron we shouldn't, Lily's only upstairs." He brought one hand around to her front and began unbuttoning her shirt, she shut her eyes and began to rotate her hips against him. He slid his hands under the fabric of her shirt and groaned at the feel of her soft skin under his hands, he cupped her ass in his hands and thrust upwards with his hips. She moaned as his erection hit against her and let her head fall forward. "Aaron we can't."

He kissed her neck, sucking gently and marking the skin. "Take me to bed Aaron."

He growled and stood taking her with him, wrapping her long legs around his waist she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and kissed him, he pushed through the door to his room and kicked it shut behind them. Dropping her to the bed he knelt between her legs on the floor and yanked her jeans down her legs, leaning close he swiped his tongue along the length of her lace panties and she moaned.

"Oh god you taste so good," he placed his hands either side of her pussy against the soft skin of her thighs and spread her wide to his seeking mouth, ripping the lace from her body he once again licked at her collecting her sweet juices on his tongue, she arched her back against the bed and her hand came down to his shaved head trying to pull him closer. He nibbled gently at her soft skin and she moaned loudly.

"Please Aaron." With a growl he lifted her and turned them so he sat against the wooden headboard with her straddling his hips, slowly he lowered her down the length of his thick cock and she held her breath until he was fully embedded inside her, slowly she began to move, bouncing up and down and he gritted his teeth watching her. Her hands rested on his muscled thighs behind her and she thrust her hips faster, her moans grew louder and he dug his fingers into her hips moving her faster on him.

"Oh Aaron I'm going to cum."

He held her up and thrust hard into her growling deep in his chest, the silken walls of her pussy tightened around his length and he came hard inside her. She collapsed against his chest and he stroked down her spine, she shivered as he teased her sensitive skin and laughed against his shoulder.

"Oh my god. That was amazing."

He laughed and dropped a kiss to her shoulder. "What did I tell you elf? I know you would enjoy it."

She pushed herself up and looked at him sternly. "You are such a bastard Aaron." He slid down the bed and turned them so they lay on their sides facing each other.

"Maybe, but I'd like to see you resist me now." She hit his chest but her eyes were closed a tired smile of her lips and soon she was asleep.

*

Aaron woke first the next morning, Lucy slept peacefully her head cushioned on his chest and her arm draped across his muscled stomach. Gently he disentangled himself and stood, pulling on a pair of blue sweatpants he walked through the house and stopped dead in the entrance to the living room, Lily stood in the middle of the room, she had moved all the furniture to the side and was bent at the waist hugging her knees bending her body in half. Her rounded ass was shown to perfection and he cleared his throat softly. She turned and smiled when she saw him.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were up."

"Don't apologise little lady," he gestured to the empty space. "What are you doing?"

She shrugged and tucked her hair behind her ear. "I'm going to get Ryan back."

He frowned questioningly. "How?"

"A Demon was never truly alive so cannot be killed. We can be taken from this world but never truly killed, Ryan is out there somewhere and I am going to bring him back."

"Lily."

She held up her hand to stop him. "I have to try, if he rescued me from Limbo I have to do everything I can. I'm going to Abdiel and I'm going to get my mate back."

"Lily."

Once again she interrupted. "Don't try and talk me out of it Aaron, I'm doing this."

"Lily!" He grabbed hold of her upper arms and lifted her so he could look into her flushed face, her feet dangled over a foot off the ground and she quietened instantly. "I'm not trying to stop you, I want to help you."

Tears filled her dark eyes. "You do?"

"Yes, now teach me to fight like you." He placed her back on the floor and folded his arms waiting for her.

"Um, ok." She studied him for a second then took a step forward. "Angels are fast." Before he knew what was happening she was behind him her arm around his neck and one hand twisting his arm up behind his back. "And they are strong," she spoke into his ear. "We will need to help you fight like a Demon or you will be killed instantly."

Twisting out of her grip he grabbed her wrist and pulled her close. "Ryan taught me a thing or two, why don't you try me little lady."

"Very well." She leapt at him and the tumbled together limbs moving too fast for mortal eyes to see, they came to a rest with her straddling his waist his hand above his head. "Good, again."

They flew across he living room before she slammed him against the wall her hand around his throat. "Again."

Their movements lasted longer this time and finally they stopped in the middle of the room, he held one arm behind her back while the fingers of her free hand dug into his neck. They were panting and her cheeks were pink. He leant down and softly brushed her lips with his own, she moaned quietly and pressed herself against him, his tongue swept along her bottom lip and bit gently. Pulling back he swept her hair off her shoulder, she shuddered against him and stepped back.

"Again."

They continued for almost three hours only stopping when Lucy ran into the room a wild expression on her pretty face, she held a huge leather bound book in her hands and they turned to look at her curiously.

"I've done it, I've found it!"

"Found what?"

"I know how to bring him back!"

Lily's face lit up and she took a step towards the elf.

"What?"

"I've been looking since it happened and I've found it."

"Well how? What do we have to do?"

Aaron came to stand behind Lily his hand on her shoulder.

"It says here if the Demon had a Follower then their life is preserved inside the Followers body, they can be brought back."

"So if I give up my life, Ryan will come back?" Lucy nodded tears sparkling in her eyes, Lily shook her head.

"No there has to be another way, I wont let anyone else die."

"I'll do it," the two women turned to the deep voice. "If it will bring my master back I'll do it."



Tormented Ch. 09



"No!" Lily shook her head vehemently and took a step towards him. "I will not let you kill yourself."

"Aaron it's possible this might not even work." Lucy spoke up her voice trembling. "Elf magic isn't a science I'd have to be perfect the first time and if I did anything wrong you would both be lost."

Aaron looked over Lily's shoulder. "Luce I need to try," his eyes flicked back to Lily. "I can't just sit around here and do nothing when there's a chance I can bring him back."

"I don't want to lose you too Aaron." Lily's voice was quiet and her dark eyes sparkled with unshed tears, she took a step towards him. He pulled her to him and wrapped his arms tightly around her waist; she rested her head on his chest.

"There is more but it's taking me a while to translate it. Give me time Aaron please."

"A week, if there is no other way after a week then we try it. Promise me." This last bit was directed at the Demon in his arms and she nodded against his chest. "Let me hear you say it."

"I promise." Lucy left them standing in the middle of the room their arms wrapped tightly around each other, back in her room she looked at the still messy sheets she felt a pang of sadness that Aaron was not in there with her, shaking it off she bent over the book and continued to pour over the print.

Later that night Lily sat on her bed twisting her hands in her lap.

"Ryan I don't know if you can hear me but I really need you, I don't know what to do I...I need your help."

"Hello poppet."

She jumped and spun round, he stood by the window the sun shining in around him lighting his golden hair, he smiled at her and took a step towards the bed reaching for her. She stopped him with one hand held in the air.

"No, I can't hold you knowing that you'll disappear." His face turned sad and she swallowed her grief. "I need your help."

He nodded and she tucked her hair behind her ear. "Lucy thinks she has found a way to bring you back." His eyes lit up and he took another step. "But it means Aaron would have to..." She couldn't finish her thought instead hanging her head swallowing.

"He would die."

She nodded. "There's a chance it might not even work but I want to try. I would let him die just for the chance it might bring you back, does that make me a monster?"

"You're not a monster Lily but I can't let Aaron take that risk. He's my follower it's up to me to protect him in any way I can."

She finally looked back up. "I knew you would say that, that's why I told him no but if there was the smallest chance that it would bring you back to me I wouldn't care what it took. I just want you back Raim."

Ignoring her protests he lifted from the bed and held her against his chest, kissing her hair he shushed her. "It's ok poppet, I will never let Aaron do that."

"He says we have a week to find another way, if we can't he said he's doing it. He made me promise."

"It's ok Lily, we'll find a way and if we can't we might just have to face the face that there's nothing we can do."

"No! I can't just sit here and do nothing."

"Lilith," she jumped at his angry tone. "Please listen to me, I want you to talk him out of it. I don't care how you convince him but you cannot let him die. He is too important."

"Important? What do you mean?"

"I can't say more, but please do not let him do this."

"Ok, ok! I won't."

"Promise me."

She sighed and tilted her head up. "I promise." With a smile he kissed her softly.

"That's my girl." Quickly she straddled him, he moved them backwards until his back leant against her pillows and slid his hands down her back to cup her perfect ass. 

"I miss you Raim."

"I miss you too Lilith, but I'm not really gone."

She kissed him again. "Is this going to be one of those 'I'll always be with you' moments?"

"No," he smiled naughtily and nipped her lower lip. "It's going to be one of those 'I'm going to fuck you so hard you wont be able to walk tomorrow' moments."

She shuddered and flicked her tongue out licking the corner of his mouth. "Is that a threat or a promise?"

He growled and ripped her tight work out crop top and shorts from her body, unhooking her bra and tearing her small panties from her body he looked her up and down, lust burning in his green eyes.

"I could just eat you up kid." Gripping her waist he pressed his hips up, kneeling she slowly undid his jeans while he pulled his white t-shirt over his head, he kicked his jeans and boxers down his legs while her small hands played over the hard muscles of his chest, stomach and arms, her eyes grew heated and he felt the slickness between her thighs against his hard length. 

Slowly she ran her fingers up his arms and to his broad shoulders, down his chest and over the hard six pack of his stomach. He kept his hands at his sides, allowing her slow exploration of his body; she slid down the bed trailing kisses down his chest, over his abs and further. She kissed down the inside of one leg then back up the other before trailing her tongue down the length of his cock, he sighed and rested his hand on her soft hair, she kissed the tip before sucking it gently into her warm mouth. Swirling her tongue around him she pressed her head further down and he felt himself begin to slide down her throat, groaning his fingers gripped her hair and she moaned sending vibrations down his thick length, her small hand wrapped around the base of his cock and slowly pumped up and down. His grip on her hair tightened pinching painfully and she shuddered, he groaned louder as she swallowed his entire length and she felt a shiver rack his powerful body. 

Slowly she bobbed up and down and he dropped his head back to rest on the soft pillows enjoying the heated warmth of her talented mouth and tongue, she took him down her throat until her small nose bumped against his skin before sucking gently as she moved her head back swirling her tongue around the head of his cock then sliding back down holding him in the throat once more. She teased him like this for what seemed like hours keeping his on the very edge, finally she stood and smiled as he panted.

"You're such a tease." She winked and took a couple of steps back from the bed.

"Me a tease? Never." 

She turned her back to him and ran her hands up the front of her thighs and over her ass before slipping over her hips and up to cup her breasts, although she knew he couldn't see what she was doing she pinched her nipples bringing a small moan from her throat. Slowly she trailed her hands down her stomach to her hips before sliding inwards between her thighs, he groaned again as he imagined what she was doing to herself and he went to get off the bed.

"No." Her voice was husky as she spoke her command and he stilled instantly. "Lie back." She listened as the bed springs creaked as he lay back down and smiled. "That's my good boy." With one finger she stroked her clit and moaned, her head fell back her long hair brushing the backs of her thighs. She slid a finger into her tight heat and moaned again.

"Lily." His voice was a menacing growl and she giggled and turned back to face him her hands covering her firm breasts, slowly she walked round to the foot of the bed and crawled onto the sheets, she seemed to stalk him as she crawled up the bed and straddled him, his hand came to tangle in her hair and he pulled her head down to kiss her, sitting up he kept his grip on her hair he slid his other hand down her back, over her hip and between her legs, sliding a finger inside her he groaned at her tightness. Bringing his finger to her lips he watched as she suckled tasting herself.

"That's my good girl." Wrapping his arm around her waist he lifted her slightly then lowered her back onto his cock. "My Demon." She shuddered and wrapped her legs around his waist until he supported her whole weight, he tucked his legs beneath him and thrust his hips upwards slowly. Her hands gripped his shoulders and she began to move her hips against him, his grip on her hair tightened and he pulled her head back, her hands slipped to his chest and she curled her nails into his skin.

His hand slipped round to her hip holding tight as he moved her finding the perfect rhythm before wrapping her hair around his hand he pulled so her back arched and dropped his head to draw a nipple into his mouth. He circled the tender skin before biting gently flicking the tip with his tongue, she groaned and writhed against him, tightening his grip on her hair he held her still and continued his deep thrusts.

"Ryan." Her voice was pleading and he smiled, lifting his head from her breast he winked and lay her back on the bed, kneeling between her legs she dragged her hips to him and leant down to kiss her stomach, she shuddered and raised herself on her elbows to watch him. Slowly he kissed downwards and flicked his tongue out to catch her clit. She moaned and fell back on the bed one arm thrown over her head the fingers of the other hand sliding into his hair, he tickled her skin with his tongue and she giggled wriggling her hips slightly. Sliding one finger into her he circled round making her gasp and moan and sped up the movements of his tongue on her clit.

"Ryan please." He added a second finger and she arched her back as he curled them upwards hitting the sweet bundle of nerves and she cried out as her orgasm hit her. Panting she looked down at him with heated eyes.

"I forgot how good your tongue felt." He grinned and crawled until he lay between her legs and thrust back into her, she groaned and wrapped her arms around his neck. With a growl he looked at her his eyes flashing red, she knew what he needed and kissed him.

"Fuck me Ryan, make me scream."

He growled again and began pounding into her soft flesh, she cried out as his cock hit against her cervix and he dropped his forehead onto hers. Gritting his teeth his hips slammed against hers and he felt the tight muscles of her pussy massaging his length.

"Cum inside me Ryan, I need to feel you." He shouted as his own orgasm ripped through his body and she screamed as his finish triggered her own and she tensed against him.

He dropped his head to her shoulder and kissed her skin softly sending a shiver through her, she sighed contentedly and stroked his hair.

"How long?"

"What do you mean?"

"How long do I have? Before you disappear?"

"As long as you need poppet." He held her to his chest and settled himself back against the pillows, she curled at his side, she felt her eyes begin to close as tiredness hit her and smiled.

"I love you Ryan."

"I love you too kid."

"I promise I wont let anything happen to Aaron." With a loud gasp she sat up and pushed herself away. "Aaron!" A soft laugh from beside her made her turn but her bed was empty. Quickly she dressed in grey sweatpants and a baggy white crop top, sprinting downstairs she saw Aaron and Lucy sat on the sofa, his arm was round the elf's shoulders and her head rested on his chest, both turned to look at her as she sprinted into the room.

"He's alive!"

"What?" Lucy's voice was confused as she looked at the Demon. "What do you mean?"

"Ryan he's alive."

"Lily," the elf stood and took a step towards her. "Ryan is dead, you saw it happen, we buried him."

"I know but I have proof." Lucy frowned and Lily pointed at her mates Follower. "Aaron is still alive!"

"Yes and that life could bring him back."

"No! A Follower can only live while their Master lives. If Ryan is dead how is he still here?"

"Maybe it works differently for different Demon's." Lucy's voice was soothing and she held her hand out.

"No! It cannot be one rule for them and another for us! A Follower can only live while the Demon that made them is alive, as long as Aaron is here Ryan is out there somewhere. I don't know where and I don't know how he survived but I do know I'm going to find him and bring him back." Her dark eyes darted between the two desperately. "Please I'm not crazy." They stared back at her with pity on their faces and she looked down feeling her eyes filled with tears. "I'm not crazy and I'll prove it! I'll bring him back!"

She spun on her heel and ran from the apartment slamming the door behind her cutting off their voices as they called her name, she kept running not caring that she was barefoot and oblivious to the stares she was getting. When she finally stopped she looked up panting, then taking a deep steadying breath she ran up the steps into the public library. Looking around the marble lobby she made sure no one was around before slipping through a side door, she stood in a stone room bending down she heaved one huge slab from the floor leaving a gap that was lit by torches. Jumping down she stared round, she stood in a long stone corridor lit by the flickering light of hundreds of torches. Once again she began running, mile after mile passed yet she did not stop more tunnels joined to hers from all directions all lit by flickering torches, finally she came to a huge round stone door. Placing her hand on the cold surface she shut her eyes and whispered one word.

"Feristaar." Her eyes flashed red and she stepped back as the door seemed to roll to the side opening to a cavernous, stone room filled to the ceiling with old books. The Demon's had hidden them there after the war to keep their secrets from the Angel's, it was the one place that the Holy Guard did not know so the one place that Demon knowledge would be safe, and in the Sanctuary she would find her answer.

For hours she sat on the floor looking through book after book. Finally after hours of searching she laughed softly and felt true happiness course through her for the first time since Ryan had gone.

"I found it."

-

When she arrived back at the house the Follower and the Elf flung their arms around her.

"Oh thank God." Lucy's voice was filled with tears and she hugged her tightly. "What happened to you?"

"I went to the library."

Aaron frowned. "You've been gone three days little lady."

Lily looked at the apologetically. "Time is irrelevant in the Sanctuary."

Lucy's face lit up. "Wait, its real?"

"Yes but first I need to show you something."

Leaving the book on the floor she ran to her bedroom and retrieved a wrapped bundle from under the bed, back downstairs she placed the bundle next to the book and knelt.

"I'm going to prove that he is alive."

"Lily," Aaron started to protest but she held up her hand.

"If this doesn't work, then I'll admit he's gone and that will be it but please, let me prove it to you."

The two looked at each other then back at the Demon and nodded. "Sure."

Lily unwrapped the bundle and carefully picked up a curved dagger, the same dagger that Abdiel had used to take her mate from her.

"I think this knife is enchanted. If I do this right and Ryan is alive then it will glow, if it doesn't then he is dead." They said nothing but watched as she opened the book and flicked through the pages, stopping she ran her finger down the page muttering in a foreign language under her breath.

"Melest no serii, su su talaway nos yemos." 

Aaron leant over to Lucy as Lily continued to chant. "What language is she speaking?"

"Deamaeic. The language of the Fallen, I had no idea she could speak it." 

They fell quiet again and watched and she picked up the knife in one hand. "Melest no serii, su su talaway nos yemos as terestas ju fieer."

The three of the gasped as the blade of the knife began to glow, the light moving under the surface like flowing water. She looked up with wonder in her eyes and smiled.

"I knew it, he's alive."

"Then how do we get him back?" Aaron smiled down at her.

"I don't know, but the answer will be in here and I'll find it."

"I know you will kid," he bent and lifted her in a tight hug, she giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck kissing his cheek. Lucy watched the two of them a pang of sadness in her chest, crouching on the floor she looked at the swirling light. She jumped as the Demon's arms wrapped around her neck and her soft lips pressed a kiss to her cheek as well.

"Thank you."

"What for?" Lucy sounded confused.

"Being here with me, it means so much."

Lily sat back on the floor and picked up the book again. For the next few hours she read, only stopping when a small hand landed on her shoulder.

"You should take a break."

"I guess I'm a little rusty, I haven't had to read Deamaeic in hundreds of years, but I'm getting there."

"Well I speak a little, let me take over for a couple of hours, go have a bath, have a glass of wine, eat something. It will still be here when you get back."

Lily smiled and nodded. "Ok." She disappeared into the kitchen and Lucy took her place on the floor, lifting the heavy book onto her lap and began to translate the words. It was slow process but gradually she once again became use to the language. A couple of hours later she shouted excitedly.

"Lily, Aaron! Come here!" The two entered the room and she stood holding the book to Lily. "I know how to get Ryan back."

"How?" Aaron sounded confused, Lily's dark eyes scanned the page quickly and Lucy turned to the Follower.

"The knife was enchanted, when Abdiel stabbed Ryan with it the enchantment infected him."

"What's the enchantment?" Aaron pushed Lily's shoulder until she sat on the sofa and took a step towards Lucy to talk.

"In here it is called the Sleep of the Angels. It is the ultimate punishment for the Fallen. The infected Demon is trapped inside their own mind, effectively they are dead. They are kept from their mate, unable to go to them or comfort them while their mate lives in agony believing that their love is dead."

"Well how do we cure him?"

"It says here," Lily looked up from the book. "That we need the blood of the enchanter, the blood of a Follower and the tear of the mate."

"My blood." 

She looked at Aaron quickly. "Don't worry we don't need more than a couple of drops. It must be collected on the blade that was used to curse them then fed to the victim, it should bring them out of it."

"Why did Abdiel leave the knife?"

"Huh?"

"If Abdiel did this to him he must know that there is a way to reverse it. Why did he leave the one thing that makes it possible."

"To taunt me, he knew that I would try and find a way to bring him back but unless the Demon has a Follower it is impossible. If he knew about you he would have at least taken it with him if not killed you so we couldn't bring him back. He can't have known about you but he knew I would try anything and the fact I had everything to bring his back but the blood of the Follower would drive me crazy."

"He's a sadistic son of a bitch isn't he?"

"You have no idea."

She shut the book and leant back a contented smile on her pretty face. "We can do this, we can get him back. I can have him back." She clutched it to her chest and brought her knees to her chest before thinking better of it and standing. "We have to go! Now! We have to go now!"

Her voice was excited and she practically jumped up and down on the spot.

"Lily, we can't go now. Abdiel is in Limbo, we need a plan." Lucy smiled despite herself at young Demon and took her face in her hands. "Tomorrow ok, we need you at your best if we're going to get in, get his blood and get out with none of us getting hurt."

She sighed. "Ok but first thing tomorrow." Lucy kissed her lips gently and stroked her cheek.

"First thing kid, I promise." She watched as Lily ran up the stairs still clutching the book, they heard the door to her bedroom shut and before she could even turn around Aaron grabbed her waist and lifted her into his arms, she gasped and wrapped her legs around his waist, he kissed her until she was breathless and backed her against the wall.

"What was that all about?"

He kissed her again and thrust his hips his erection hitting her against her and she moaned in understanding. "Oh I see." She ripped his t-shirt from his muscled body and his eyes widened, she smiled and shrugged. "I'm stronger then I look." Holding her to him with one arm he removed their jeans, underwear and stripped her t-shirt from her leaving her in nothing but her white bra, he thrust into her tight pussy and groaned, dropping his head to her shoulder he took her bra strap in his teeth and pulled it down her arm, she shuddered at the intimate contact and wrapped her arms around his shoulders.




Tormented Ch. 09



He cupped her ass in his large hands and began to thrust in and out of her, her eyes grew heated as her pleasure built and she arched her back pressing her small breasts against his chest, he slid the other strap down her shoulder and pushed her bra until it rested around her waist. He dropped his head to one breast and flicked his hot, wet tongue over one nipple, sucking it into his mouth he teased with his teeth and she moaned loudly.

With surprising speed he moved to the sofa and bent her over the back. "Not a sound, Lily's upstairs." With one hard thrust he embedded his hard cock back inside her and she whimpered, her bra still hung around her waist and he took hold of it in one hand, her hands curled into the back of the sofa and she held on as he pounded into her. Her legs began to tremble as her pleasure built and she bit her lip to stop any sound escaping, his large hand came down on her ass in a hard smack and a cry escaped her throat. She held her breath waiting to see what he would do. Turning her back to face him he lay her on the floor and positioned himself between her legs, thrusting back into her wet heat he kissed her.

"Not a sound Elf."

He hooked one leg around his waist and started up his violent thrusts again, she whimpered each time he bottomed out inside her and flung her hands above her head to curl her nails into the fabric of the sofa. One particularly hard thrust brought another cry from her and he pressed his hand over her mouth.

"Cum for me Elf, let me feel you."

Her muscles tensed as he thrust harder and her back arched and she bit into his palm as she came. The tightening of the walls of her silken pussy pushed him over the edge and he gritted his teeth as he jetted into her. He collapsed on top of her his breathing ragged and she laughed softly, he pushed himself slowly onto his elbows and kissed her.

"I've wanted to do that all day."

"Oh yeah?" Her voice was sultry and her blue eyes stared heatedly at him.

"You're very tempting Elf."

"You're not bad yourself Follower."

Standing he lifted her and walked through to the bedroom, shutting the door he kissed her again. "You know there is a good chance we might die tomorrow." She nodded. "Then stay with me tonight?"

"Nowhere else I would rather be."

He lay her down on the bed and crawled between her legs again, turning off the bedside lamp he set to work making sure that if it was their last night it would be one they remembered.

-

Lily rose as the sun did and jumped from the bed. An excitement burned in her belly even while fear gripped her chest, dressing in black skinny jeans, a tight black vest and heavy black biker boots, she pulled her hair into a ponytail on top of her head. Fastening a belt around her hips she put two large knives into the holders, two more where strapped to her calves and she slid the enchanted knife into her boot. Taking a small silk drawstring bag she placed a glass vial inside and tied the bag to a belt loop, she ran downstairs ready to wake the others and smiled when she saw them already waiting for her in the living room.

"We knew you wanted to go early," Lucy nodded towards the door. "Lets go."

They emerged onto the almost deserted street, Lily turned to the Follower and the Elf and winked.

"Try and keep up kids." Then she was gone sprinting away, they laughed and followed behind her. When they reached the clearing where she would open the gate way to Limbo Lucy called out to her.

"Lily wait." She skidded to a halt and turned round. "I have a spell that will help keep what you are hidden from the Angels." She took Lily and Aaron's hands in her own and chanted softly in a strange language, Lily shuddered as a numbing feeling enveloped her and she stared at her skin which shimmered in the light of the rising sun.

"Ok, we're ready." 

Lily moved away and shut her eyes. "Aliminos, travistae, nocturnos, eminfus." Once again the cobblestone path appeared under their feet and the castle materialized in the distance, Aaron looked round in wonder.

"This is Limbo?" The girls nodded. "Wow, they get it nice."

"Course they do they're teachers pets," she looked around. "I'm guessing that one's his?" she nodded at the huge castle in the distance and Lucy nodded.

"That's where we found you."

Lily took a deep breath and turned back to them. "If you guys want to go," she motioned back to the clearing that they could still see through a shimmering light. "Then I won't stop you, I don't want anyone else to get hurt."

"We're not leaving little lady." Aaron turned her back to the castle and pushed her forward with a small tap on her ass.

They reached the castle and Lily turned ta Aaron. "Gimme a boost," he took hold of her waist and threw her so she landed on the high wall, they others joined her and she looked around the courtyard below. It was deserted, she frowned. "Its too quiet. Wait here." She dropped silently to the floor and looked around, then running swiftly she disappeared from sight. They waited, scanning the ground, when she arrived back at the wall she beckoned them down. She had blood around her mouth and a small smile on her face.

"I got them, come on we need to go." Together they ran round the house looking for a way in. "There." She pointed up to a second story window that stood open, jumping up she hooked her hands on the window sill and hung there, holding one hand down she took Lucy's hand and pulled her up beside her, Lucy pulled herself through the window and Lily did the same thing for Aaron. They landed silently in a dimly lit corridor, looking left and right she turned back and whispered to the others.

"I'll go this way, Aaron you go that way." She pointed in the opposite direction. "And Luce you go down there." She pointed straight ahead where the corridor split. "If you find anything just shout and if you run into a Follower get rid of them," she handed them each a large knife. 

They nodded and each set off in their different directions, Lily removed the other two knives from their holsters and held them in clenched fists, running down the corridor she searched for the one man that could bring back her mate.

Lucy walked down the hall, her back pressed to the wall the knife held at her side. The sound of heavy footsteps coming towards her made her stop and duck into a cubby hole. Two Followers came round the corner and she stepped out to stand in front of them.

"Morning boys." Quicker than the eyes could follow she slashed out slitting one's throat in a fluid movement, he clutched his neck the blood spurting through his fingers and dropped to his knees as the life slipped from him. Lucy slowly advanced on the second Follower, he took a step back and she moved quickly to stand behind him, again she drew the blade across his throat and waited until he lay still before carrying on. 

She turned the corner and froze as she heard more footsteps coming towards her, she slipped back round waiting for whoever it was to emerge and when the footfalls got close enough she slid round the corner the knife raised ready to strike whoever it was. A large hand grabbed her wrist before she could bring the knife down and she struggled.

"You going to stab me Elf?" She looked into Aaron's face and thumped his chest. 

"You fucker, I could have killed you."

"Not a chance gorgeous." He dropped his head and kissed her. "Get on Elf, we have to find him."

He slipped round her and disappeared down another corridor branching off from this one, steadying her breathing and holding her knife tightly she carried on listening outside each door. Finally a sound from inside caught her ear and she pushed the door open.

Abdiel turned his handsome face taking her in and a lewd smile curved his lips, he took a step towards her with his head on one side.

"An Elf? Well isn't this a treat." She held up and hand and he stopped as though he had walked into a invisible wall, she clenched her fist and he sank to his knees a pained look on his face, he gritted his teeth before smiling up at her once again. "An Elf with magic, haven't seen one of you in a long time."

"No I'm pretty sure your buddies wiped most of us out."

"Just doing our jobs ma'am."

"Well I can't argue with that." She turned her head and shouted over her shoulder. "Lily! I got him!"

"She's here?" His voice lifted despite himself. "I'm sure she pretty pissed at me."

"You're not her favourite."

"She found out about her darling Raim?"

"She's a clever girl." Lucy kept her hand in a tight fist preventing him from moving, Angel's had magic but the ancient power of the elves was more than he could ever wish to have. Instead he listened to the wishful tone of in the Elf's voice and smiled to himself.

"You are not just here to help her."

"Of course I am."

"No, you have a more personal reason, you are fond of Raim."

"He's my friend."

"You love him." Her head whipped back so she faced him and she crouched in front of him.

"You don't know anything Angel."

"Of course not, but if I did know what I was talking about I could help you. If the girl was out of the picture, Raim would be yours."

"You're a sick fuck." She tightened her fist and he doubled over in pain.

"Maybe," his voice was breathless but his eyes still flashed at her as he looked into her face. "But I'm right. You love him and as long as she is in the picture he will never be yours."

She clenched her fist again and he cried out in agony slumping forward again, his arms were still stuck to his sides as though he were chained and he panted for breath. Before he could say another word Lily and Aaron came sprinting into the room, Lily looked at the Angel on the floor and smiled in satisfaction.

"Abdiel, so good to see you again," she brushed a hand over Lucy's shoulders before taking the enchanted dagger from her boot and crouching in front of him she tilted his face up with a finger under his chin.

"Lilith, looking as beautiful as ever."

She winked and pushing on his cheek turned his head to the side. Running the knife across his cheek she allowed the blood to run onto the blade and balanced the drops there, with her free hand she pulled the glass vial from the drawstring bag and let the drops roll into it. Then turning to the others she spoke quietly.

"Give us a moment."

"Lily." Aaron started to protest but she held up a hand.

"I'll be fine, he wont hurt me." They nodded and left the room, as they walked through the door Abdiel shouted after Lucy.

"Think about what I said Elf!"

She turned back to him and when her dark eyes met his tears were forming. "You know there was a time when seeing you would brighten my day, I was to spend an eternity in Hell but it was ok because you were my one piece of Heaven." She shook her head as though upset about the loss. "I'm not going to kill you Abdiel, I could you told me how remember? An Angel can only be killed by their mate and as you have already told me, I am yours. I could kill you right here and you would do nothing to stop me because although you say you want to hurt me you couldn't bring yourself to kill me. But I'm not going to," she reached out and grabbed the front of his t-shirt bringing his face close to hers. "Instead I am going to make you suffer the way I suffered. I am going to make you live the rest of your life knowing that your mate has lost all of the love she ever felt for you." His eyes widened at this last statement and he leant forward.

"Lily?"

"You were my best friend, and the one ray of light in my dark soul and even though I knew I would spend my life in the Hell your God created for us at least I would have known you even if it was just for a short time. Ryan is my mate and I love him with all my heart but you were my friend and I loved you too." She stood and looked down at his grief stricken face. "I hope this was worth it." She turned to leave but before she could make it out of the door he reached out and grabbed her hand.

"Lily please don't go."

Hanging her head she allowed one tear to fall. "Goodbye Abdiel."

His hand dropped back to his side and he watched helpless as she walked away from him, she took the knife and collected the tear on the blade before allowing it to fall into the vial to join the blood of the Angel.

-

None of them said a word until they reached the clearing, Aaron held out his hand and she made a small cut on his palm and added the final drop of blood to the vial. Screwing the lid on she shook the contents while the others dug through the earth until they hit the white coffin, bringing it out to the surface Lily opened the lid and let out a small sob, his skin was pale and ice cold, kneeling next on the ground she gently opened his mouth and poured the liquid down his throat.

"Come on Ryan, come back to me."

They waited holding their breath, seconds passed, then minutes.

"Lily." Aaron's voice was sympathetic and he lay a hand on her shoulder. "I'm so sorry."

"No! It will work! It has to work."

Aaron opened his mouth to speak again but Lucy took hold of his arm and pulled him away. "Give her some space, I cant imagine how hard this must be."

She collapsed over the coffin sobbing desperately. "It should have worked! I should have you back!" She stayed there for hours her cries become more desperate as she tried to wake him, finally she dragged herself to her feet and walked home in a daze, Aaron and Lucy sat on the sofa their eyes red from tears, she said nothing instead walking straight up the stairs to her room. She sat in the middle of the bed tears streaming down her cheeks until the door opening caught her attention.

"Why are you crying poppet?" She jumped and looked up, he stood in the door way his hair tousled and still wearing the grey suit he had been buried in.

She shook her head. "No not again!" she shook her head and held onto handfuls of her hair. "It's not fair!"

"Lily its me."

"No you're not real," he grabbed her arms and lifted her so she knelt on the bed.

"Lily, I'm real. I'm here and I'll never leave you again! I promise."

Her eyes widened and she stared at him noticing the tiny imperfections that made him perfect to her, scar through his left eyebrow, the one dimple in his right cheek and the way his green eyes sparkled when he smiled at her.

"It's you. It's really you!" She flung her arms around his neck and kissed him frantically. "Oh thank Lucifer!" He held her waist and they fell to the bed, she wrapped her legs around his waist and thrust her hips upwards. He groaned and slipped a hand between their bodies and under the waist band of her jeans, he ran a finger down the centre of her wet pussy and groaned again.

"Fuck Lily, you're so wet." She moaned and wiggled her hips against him encouraging him to touch her more. He kissed her neck sucking gently and marking the skin, her small hands loosened his tie and threw it behind her, she pushed the suit jacket off his shoulders and undid the buttons of his white shirt, his free hand ripped the vest and bra from her body and his eyes flashed as he stared at her soft breasts, softly he kissed each on and sucked a nipple into his warm mouth. She shuddered and pushed her hips harder against him.

"Ryan please I need you inside me."

Quickly he undressed them throwing the jeans and trousers into the pile on the floor and thrust his hips, his cock rubbed against her sensitive clit and she moaned in frustration, she turned them so she straddled him and sank slowly down his thick length. Their groans matched each other's and he rested his hands on her thighs allowing her to move as she wished. She began to bounce up and down and he threw his head back in pleasure, it had been too long since he had felt her and he gritted his teeth. Her hands travelled up her body to cup her breasts and she pinched her nipples sending waves of pleasure through her.

Resting her hands on his muscled chest she began to roll her hips in a circular motion making him cry out and dig his fingers painfully into her skin, he growled his eyes flashing red and flipped them she was once again beneath him, he took one leg and hooked it over his shoulder and began thrusting hard and fast into her. She whimpered his thrusts bordering on painful as they hit deep inside her.

He thrust became even faster and her cries turned to screams as her pleasure built, her muscles clenched and she bit down hard on his neck as she came, the pain in his throat triggered his own orgasm and she felt herself being filled as he held himself deep inside her.

His breath was ragged and he turned so she lay out across his chest his head on the pillows and hers cushioned on his shoulder.

"You will be here when I wake up wont you?" her voice was sleepy and her eyes had already begun to close.

He nodded and kissed her hair. "Of course I will poppet, I'm never leaving you again."

"I love you so much Raim."

"I love you too Lilith." 

-

Lucy lay in bed, Aaron lay beside her already asleep and she listened to his deep breathing. They had failed to bring Ryan back and she felt a deep grief in her heart.

"Lucy," she jumped and looked around. "Lucy." Her room was empty and she sat up looking for whatever could have made the noise.

"Think about my offer Elf, we can both have what we want."

"No. I wont do it."

"I could have my Lilith and you could have Raim all to yourself."

"He's gone. We couldn't bring him back."

"No he is with her, when he should be with you." Lucy felt fury burn in her stomach at these words.

"He should be with me."

"If Lilith wasn't around he would be free to be with you."

"It's Lily's fault."

She heard the voice laugh as she finally drifted off to sleep. "Lily has to go. 



Tormented Ch. 10



She woke slowly the next morning, the sun shone through her window and she covered her eyes against the glare. A heavy arm rested across her waist and she fidgeted beneath the weight.

"Ryan get off I'm hot." She shrugged his muscled arm off her and closed her eyes again, it took a minute for her mind to snap into wakefulness and she turned sitting up to look at the sleeping figure beside her. His blonde hair was messy curls and he had a small smile playing about his lips, she reached out and gently touched his stubbled cheek as though checking he was really there.

"Are you watching me sleep?" His sleepy voice made her jump and she laughed embarrassed, he turned over onto his back and rested his head on one muscled arm.

"I wasn't for very long," she leant down and kissed his lips softly. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine," he ran his fingers down her waist to rest on her hip. "How are you?"

"I'm fine now." She rested her elbows on his chest and dropped her chin to her hand. "Let's go out."

"Go out?"

"Yeah, the four of us, you know dinner, drinks, maybe dancing."

"You think that's a good idea?"

She kissed him again and stroked his chest. "I know it's a good idea. Abdiel won't bother us again and I plan to enjoy our life together."

His eyes flashed and he pulled her to him turning them so he lay between her legs, both only wore underwear and she gasped at the feel of him against her. "Our life?"

"Yeah."

"Hmm I like the sound of that poppet." He kissed her, holding her wrists he moved her hands to rest on pillow either side of her head. "I just have one thing." She frowned and tipped her head to one side. "Not here."

"What do you mean not here?"

"Not here, not this house, not my house, not this town, not here."

"What are you saying?"

"Let's move away. We'll travel, go on vacation, lie on the beach and get drunk off cocktails then when we're done we'll find a place. What do you think about going back to England?"

Her eyes widened. "Really?"

"Yeah."

"But what about Lucy? What about Aaron?" 

"They're not children, they can make their own decisions, if they want to stay they can stay. If they want to come with us then they can. All I care about is us and our life."

"I haven't been to England in so long. It will be good to be back."

He kissed her neck softly and she shuddered. "We could get a cottage, somewhere in the country." He kissed the other side of her neck. "On a farm, thatched roof, wood fire. A barn where I could take advantage of you." She laughed and her dark eyes sparkled up at him.

"So I'm the farmer's daughter and you're the stable boy who lures me into a life of debauchery."

"Pretty much." He kissed the corner of her mouth and she wriggled beneath him.

"And Lucy and Aaron, they can come with us?"

"Of course they can."

She wrestled her hands out of his grip and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him she smiled. "You're incredible."

He said nothing, instead he slid a hand between their bodies and slipped it beneath her to cup her ass, she grinned and arched her back pushing closer to him. He rolled his hips against her and she moaned quietly.

Quickly he unhooked her bra and dropped his head to flick his tongue over one nipple, she gasped and slid her fingers through his hair, trying to pull him closer. He resisted her strength instead moving his head to her other breast and biting the nipple gently.

"Oh god Ryan, please." He laughed softly and leant down to whisper into her ear.

"Tell me what you want."

"Fuck me, I want you to fuck me." He flipped her onto her stomach and ripped her underwear from her, kissing down her spine he felt her shiver, running his hands over her ass round under her hips he pulled her so she was kneeling with her chest still flat on the bed, biting the skin of her ass gently he spanked her and she moaned, he brought his hand down again and she pressed back against him, he moved to position the head of his cock against her.

He pushed inside her slowly holding her by the hips began to thrust slowly in and out of her pussy, her fingers curled into the sheets beneath her and she threw her head back allowing her blonde hair to fall down her back, he reach out and wrapped her long hair round his fist pulling her head back further and exposing her neck, leaning down until his chest was flat against her back he ran kisses from behind her ear, down her throat to the juncture of her neck and shoulder, resting his weight on one hand next to hers he bit down and she moaned.

Her nails curled ripping through the fabric, tearing the sheets and digging into the mattress beneath them, he sped up the movement of his hips bringing another, louder moan from her. A deep tingling at the base of his spine dragged a growl from his chest and he rasped into her ear.

"Lily I'm gonna cum." She turned her head to the side she kissed him before catching his bottom lip in her teeth.

"Cum inside me." He growled again and his thrusts grew faster still before he tensed, holding himself deep inside her as he came, the feel of his hot cum inside her made her cry out and he felt her tighten around his length as her own orgasm gripped her. She collapsed back to the bed and he laughed gently running his hand up her back before kissing her shoulder, sitting on the edge of the bed he stretched before moving to the dresser.

"I better go and see the others." She rolled onto her back and smiled up at him.

"They missed you." He came back to the bed and leant over her supporting his weight on his muscled arms he kissed her.

"You coming?"

She threaded her fingers through his hair and kissed him again. "I need a shower and I'll be out."

He slid one hand down her flat stomach to cup the smooth shaven mound of her pussy, pushing one fingers inside he grinned. "Maybe we should spend the day in bed."

She pushed his chest gently. "Go on, I'll be through in a minute."

He stood and walked through to the living room, Aaron and Lucy sat on the sofa, his arm around her shoulders they were talking quietly but both turned when they heard him come in. Both leapt to their feet, Aaron took a step around the sofa towards him a disbelieving grin spreading across his face.

"Master?"

"You know I hate it when you call me that." He grasped his Follower's forearm tightly. 

"It's good to have you back Ryan." 

They hugged briefly. "It's good to be back." Ryan turned to Lucy, she hadn't moved but when he held his hand she walked into his arms without hesitation, he lifted her so her feet dangled off the floor and buried his face in her neck.

"Hi princess."

She smiled at the old nickname and wrapped her arms tighter around his neck. "You haven't called me that in so long."

He set her back on her feet and kissed her forehead. "Come on I think alcohol is in order don't you?" he took her hand and lead her out onto the balcony. An hour later found the four of them sat in the sun, Aaron and Lucy on one sun lounger her sat between his legs him with one arm around her thin waist. Ryan sat on the other with Lily curled on the floor at his feet, he twisted a lock of her blonde hair around his finger and in his other hand he held a large glass of whisky as did Aaron while the girls each held bucket sized glasses of wine.

"Oh hey did Ryan say?" Lily piped up from the floor. "We're going on holiday."

Aaron and Lucy looked at her blankly and Ryan laughed. "She means vacation. Sorry she's British."

She turned and thumped his leg. "You're such a Yank. Fine we're going on vacation, white sand beaches, clear ocean, bottomless cocktails, topless waiters." She winked at Lucy on this last bit. "What do you think?"

"Sounds amazing little lady," Aaron grinned. "Want some help with the planning?"

"Only if we can start now!" Her voice was excited like a child's and Aaron laughed, he stood holding his hand out to the Demon and together they went inside. Lucy watched the two of them disappear back into the house, a hot jolt of hatred went through her and she clenched her hands in fists, looking through the glass wall she could see Lily sat at the breakfast bar a laptop in front of her while Aaron stood close behind her.

Standing she turned to Ryan. "I'm going to go and change," she nodded down at her jeans. "I'm getting hot in these." Ryan nodded and refilled his glass.

"Oh we're going out tonight, I want to say thank you to you and Aaron."

"Why?"

"For bringing me back, for not giving up and for looking after her." He motioned inside. "I don't know what she would have done without you."

"Don't mention it, she would do the same for any of us." Forcing a smile she ducked inside and didn't let out the breath she was holding until she was in her room, slumping against the door she stripped from her clothes leaving her in her red lace bra and thong.

"It is not just Raim."

She jumped and looked around. The room was dark the curtains still being drawn, Abdiel stood in the shadows his back against the wall and his arms folded, pushing himself away from the wall he took a step towards her and she pressed against the door.

"You care for the Follower?"

She turned and tried to run, before she could even open the door he was standing behind her, he turned her roughly and pushed her against the wood of the door, taking a wrist in each hand he held her hands immobile either side of her head and pressed his body against her.

Turning his head so he could whisper softly into her ear he gently rolled his hips against her. "And he loves her doesn't he? And that is hurting you worse than Ryan ever could."

"That's not true."

"How unfair for you Elf, the two men you love and both of them will never look at you because of her."

"Get off me." She clenched her hand into a fist feeling the magic run through her, she expected him to crumple to the floor as he had before but he didn't even flinch, she gasped and shook her head. "You tricked me, your magic is stronger than mine."

"Oh I'm sorry Elf, I didn't mean to deceive you."

"You're a monster."

"Well you're politer than Lilith, she refers to me as a fucking wanker. It's an English term." He studied her with his head on one side. "I thought it would be enough just to plant the hatred in you but you're loyal, not just to Raim and his Follower but to Lilith as well."

"They are my friends, I won't hurt them."

"Soon Elf you will have no choice in anything you do." A single tear ran down her cheek as she felt his power over her grow. "If it's any consolation, you won't remember a thing about what you have done. You will simply reap the benefits same as me."

"No! I won't do it!"

"You don't have a choice Elf." His blue eyes flashed and he began speaking quietly. "No su taieer, faristay jutii listerus aqui su su talaway kiyeestay."

She felt his magic well up inside her and opened her mouth to scream, her strength left her as her conscious mind was pushed deep inside her into darkness, her knees buckled and she slid down the wall. He released his hold on her wrist instead swinging her limp body into his arms he moved to the bed gently laying her down. As she slipped into darkness she heard his laugh and she shuddered as it sent chills through her.

-

Aaron frowned as he pushed open the door to the dark room, Lucy had gone past him and Lily to change over an hour ago and hadn't come back, he smiled when he saw her. She lay on her side on the bed, she was facing away from him and he got a perfect view of her ass in her red lace thong. Stretching out beside her he wrapped a muscled arm around her waist and pulled her tightly against his body, his hand roamed over her body up to her small breasts still covered by her bra, then down her stomach to stroked her through the materiel of her thong. She moaned quietly and pressed back against him.

"Did I fall asleep?"

He laughed at the soft, sleepy tone of her voice and kissed her neck. "Yeah."

"Oh no, I'm not late am I? Ryan said we were going out tonight."

"No we have plenty of time, they went upstairs so I'm guessing they'll be a while." He kissed her again and slipped his hand under the lace of her thong, she gasped as his fingers teased her running along her slit and she held onto his wrist. 

He moved his free arm until it rested under her head and pushed a finger inside her, she moaned and her ass ground against him.

"More Aaron." 

He laughed and pulled her knickers to one side, freeing his hard cock from his jeans he teased her entrance until she was shaking.

"Aaron I swear to god, if you're not inside me in two seconds I will go fucking crazy." He held onto her waist and thrust hard into her, she moaned and pushed her hips back driving him deeper into her. 

"Oh fuck you're so tight." He spoke through gritted teeth and began sawing in and out of her wet pussy, her hand curled into the pillow beneath her head and her breathing sped up to match the speed of his thrusts.

His hand tightened its grip on her and he lifted her slightly so her hip was off the bed. Pulling her leg over his thigh opening her wider his finger found the engorged nub of her clit and began to softly massage it. Her arm came over her shoulder and her hand grasped his neck as her moans grew louder and she began grinding her hips against him.

"Cum for me Elf," she whimpered at his harsh command and arched her back pressing her ass harder against him, his fingers sped up against her flying across her clit and his felt her muscles begin to tense. The silken walls of her pussy fluttered around his cock and he thrust faster until she was almost screaming.

"Oh fuck, Aaron." His name was a long moan and he gritted his teeth against the pleasure building inside him. Before he could do another thing to her she had turned them so she straddled him and guided herself back down the thick length of his cock, taking his wrists in her hands she held his hands on the pillow either side of his head and leant forward to kiss him. Slowly she began to work her hips against him feeling his cock hitting deep inside her send jolts of pleasure through her whole body, he leant his head up to catch her lips in another kiss but she pulled back.

"You fucking tease."

She flicked her tongue over his lower lip before taking it gently between her teeth. "You want me to stop?"

He growled and she giggled, straightening she gently cupped her small breasts, her fingers played with her erect nipples and her eyes slid shut as more pleasure washed over her. His hands came to rest on her hips and he lifted her slightly and began to thrust into her. Her hands came to tangle in her red hair and she allowed him to do as he wished as he brought her closer and closer to orgasm. She cried out as the second climax gripped her and her nails curled into his chest, he gritted his teeth and thrust his hips upwards one more time lifting them both from the bed as he came inside her. 

She collapsed back on his chest panted slightly, when she finally lifted her head to look back at him he ran the fingers of one hand through her hair and kissed her softly.

"Fuck Luce, you're incredible ." He frowned slightly, her eyes were so dark they looked almost black, almost as dark as Lily's. stroking his thumb across her cheek he chalked it up to arousal and kissed her again.

"You're not too bad yourself Follower." Propping her elbows on his chest she dropped her chin onto her fist and contemplated him. "When did they want to go out?"

He shrugged and ran his hand down her back. "Well they want to go out for dinner and I'm still dressed," he looked down between their bodies. "So that gives us a little extra time." He thrust up and his still hard cock hit deep inside her, she gasped and rolled off him.

"You may be dressed but I still need to shower, find what to wear, do my hair and makeup. It's not easy being a girl," she folded her arms and looked down at him. "Are you going to put that away?"

He grinned and rested his head on his hands, she licked her lips and knelt between his legs, pulling his jeans she took him in her mouth allowing him to slide down her throat, he groaned and threaded his fingers into her shoulder length hair. Moving her head back she swiped her tongue across the head of his cock before sinking back down until her nose bumped against his stomach. His other hand joined the first in her hair and he balled his fingers into tight fists, then he began to move her gritting his teeth as his pleasure grew. She braced her weight on her hands on his thighs and allowed him to move her finding his pleasure, a small moan escaped her throat and the vibrations sent waves of pleasure through him and he began to thrust into her mouth harder. Gritting his teeth he held himself still as his orgasm ripped through him and he jetted cum into her warm, willing mouth, she swallowed hard but a dribble of white escaped the corner of her mouth and she licked it up with a flick of her soft pink tongue.

He lifted his head slowly and stroked her cheek. "Have I mentioned that you're fucking incredible?" She laughed and stood slowly.

"Once or twice, now I'm going to have my shower. Think you can behave while I do?"

"Nope." She giggled and walked through to the en suite bathroom. Aaron stripped his clothes from his body before following her in.

They waited in the living room two hours later, Aaron wore a black suit with a white suit and thin black tie, Lucy a short, white sundress, brown sandals and a thick wooden bangle completed her outfit and they stood arms around each other waiting.

Ryan and Lily came down the stairs hand in hand, he wore a grey suit, black shirt and white tie and she a strapless white silk dress patterned with deep blue flowers, it was tight to her torso pushing her soft breasts up then flared to a short skirt at her waist ending halfway down her thigh, dark blue heels gave her extra height and her white blonde hair hung to her waist in a shining wave her eyes were outlined with black pen and her lips painted a soft pink.

"Wow, Luce you look incredible." She let go of Ryan's hand instead linking arms with the Elf. "Come on it's Ryan's treat and I've made sure there's champagne in the car."

Lucy forced a smile and allowed Lily to pull her from the house, Ryan rested his hand on Aaron's shoulder and shook his head.

"And I have no choice in being with her, such a shame isn't it." He smiled as he watched his mate leave. "You're lucky to have Luce you know." Aaron laughed. "Don't I know it boss, don't I know it."

Downstairs the two girls already sat in the back seats of the large black car, James, the young blonde haired man who had served the two Demon's dinner stood by the door smiling at Aaron and Ryan.

"You're lucky boys." 

They nodded and joined Lily and Lucy in the back, each already held a glass of champagne and sat close together talking conspiratorially, Lucy forced herself to remain close to the Demon battling with the hate inside her. She snuck a glance over at Ryan and Aaron, they had been taken away from her before she had even had a chance, looking back at Lily she forced the smile back onto her face and sipped her champagne.

They arrived at the restaurant and were shown through to a private room at the back, they sat around the circular table, Ryan was to Lily's right, Aaron to her left and Lucy opposite, they each had a glass of wine and they picked from the food laid out in front of them. They're conversation ranged over their meal, from the holiday to moving to England and finally to their childhoods.

"I was born in Limbo. Me and my family lived there until the Great War in 1550, my parents were killed and the Fallen were banished from Limbo and I came to America. I've been here ever since."

"Wait I thought you said your parents were on the wrong side of the divide during the war."




Tormented Ch. 10



"The Fallen had a deal with the Angel's, it wasn't perfect but they allowed us to live among them, once we found our mate we would have to leave to live in the mortal world where we ourselves would become mortal and die of old age. After the war we were banished to purgatory and when we found our mates hunted and killed. Any Demon that fought beside the Angel's were permitted to stay, any who fought against them were banished. My parents fought with our kind and were killed for it, I survived but left. They weren't going to tell me where to live. I moved to America and met Lily in late 1860's."

Aaron smiled. "I was there when you guys first met? That was the first time you had seen each other?"

Lily nodded. "According to Ryan you had come to rob me, it's such a romantic story." She leant across and kissed Ryan.

"What about you then little lady? What's your story?"

"I was born in purgatory but we left when I was 3 and moved to England, I never knew my father but when I was four I met Abdiel. We became close, like forbidden friendship kind of thing. He left to join the Holy Guard when I was fifteen and after that we kind of lost contact. I came to America in 1868, a year later I met Ryan." She took his hand. "I never knew what drew me here until I met him."

"How old are you?" Aaron sounded truly interested and hadn't taken his eyes off the two Demon's. Lily tutted and frowned at him.

"You should never ask a woman her age." He shrugged and she shook her head. "I was born in 1633, to humans I am going on twenty."

"You gotta younger woman there boss." Aaron winked and Lily finished the wine in her glass.

Holding her hand out to Lucy she linked fingers with the Elf. "I need to go to the bathroom, you mind coming could use your help with my eyeliner, I never could get it right."

Lucy fought off a grimace as their hands touched and nodded. "Sure." Lily lead her out of their private room, through the restaurant and into the bathroom, she pulled herself up to sit on the counter and contemplated the woman in front of her.

"You've been real quiet tonight, is everything ok?"

Lucy nodded checking her reflection in the mirror. "Course, I'm just happy to have Ryan back."

"Me too," Lily looked up at her slyly through her long eyelashes. "So you and Aaron seem pretty close."

"Answer her Elf and make it convincing. Be her girl friend." The deep voice seemed to whisper in her ear and she jumped. Forcing the smile back onto her face she turned to Lily and winked.

"A lady never kisses and tells."

Lily let out a small shriek and took Lucy's hands in her own. "I knew that, that's so great! I'm so happy for you."

"Thanks."

"So... how was it I need details."

"In a restaurant bathroom? Classy till the end Lily."

She pushed the Elf's shoulder gently before clapping her hands together. "We'll kick the boys out tomorrow night, get some expensive wine, take away, chocolate, ice cream and chick flicks and have a girlie night. What do you think?"

"Sound's perfect."

Abdiel's voice whispered into her ear again. "I will come for her tomorrow. When Ryan and Aaron return you will tell them she left while you were asleep. Tell them you didn't know what she was going to do but she was speaking about what might happen if she stayed, Raim has never gone after her when it was her choice." 

Lucy smiled and took Lily's hand and together they returned to the table.

It was gone two in the morning when they finally returned to Lily's house, they stumbled into the lift and Lily laughed as Ryan tried to press the button. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his softly.

"I love you my drunken mess."

He held onto her waist and pulled her close. "I love you too poppet." He kissed her again and Aaron looked at them fondly, he slipped his arm around Lucy's waist and kissed her forehead.

Lily struggled to unlock the door and finally they fell through, the stumbled into the lounge talking and laughing together, Ryan turned on the light and froze. There was a woman sitting on the sofa, he immediately sobered and pushed Lily behind him, she peered around his arm in confusion and her eyes widened when she saw the woman. She had long chestnut hair that curled in gentle ringlets, dark brown eyes, she looked to be in her mid-forties but was still a great beauty.

"Mum?"

-

Ryan, Lucy and Aaron watched from the kitchen, Lily had shooed them away and gone to sit beside the woman on the sofa, they now stared at each other in silence. Without a word they threw their arms around each other.

"Where have you been?" Lily's voice was muffled against her mothers shoulder and tears ran down her cheeks.

"Everywhere baby." She leant back and took her daughter's face in her hands. "Dear Lucifer, you are beautiful."

Lily blushed and beckoned the others through. "It's ok, come in."

The three entered slowly and Ryan held his hand out to the stranger. "Tayana, long time."

Lily's mother stood and took the man in her arms. "Too long Raim."

"This is my Follower Aaron." Tayana shook hands with the dark skinned man. "And this is my friend Lucy." The older Demon turned to the Elf and immediately took a step back.

"What in hell do you think you're doing letting an Angel near my daughter?!"

Ryan frowned and turned to look at Lucy. "What talking about? This is my friend I would know if she was an Angel."

"Look at her eyes Raim, does that look like your friend."

Ryan stepped in front of Lucy and stared down into her face, her normal bright blue eyes were dark as a stormy night, he reached out to touch her but she pulled away.

"Do not touch me." She spoke through gritted teeth and took a step towards Tayana. "Very clever Demon, his friend is gone and the only person to blame is your beloved daughter."

Lily frowned and stood from the sofa. "Luce? What are you talking about?"

"Do you know what it's like being a girl around you? You're perfect and because of you the two men I loved will never look twice at me. You left Ryan more times than I can count yet he still fucking waits for you like some love sick puppy, never looking twice at me." She took a step towards Lily the anger growing in her eyes and Lily gasped as she recognised the look of hatred in the dark blue depths.

"Abdiel?"

"And then there's the Follower who will never want me because he too shares the fucking bond that ties him to you. What the fuck makes you so special?"

"Ryan," Lily spoke desperately to her mate. "It's Abdiel, he's done something to her."

Ryan took hold of her upper arms and looked into her burning eyes. "Luce look at me, you are stronger than this, you need to fight back."

"Hold her still." Tayana spoke up and Ryan turned them so Lucy was stood in front of him facing the Demon. "Whatever you do, do not let her go. This will hurt her but I can help. Do not let her go."

Aaron came the other side and took hold of her hand. Tayana moved close and placed her hands on the Elf's face. "Remember do not let her go." Tayana closed her eyes and began speaking in a low voice. 

"Nosfarus lucifires no taleweer. Saintus juterus kieeratus."

Lucy screamed and struggled against the hands holding her. "Please, stop!"

"Nosfarus lucifires no taleweer. Saintus juterus kieeratus."

Lucy screamed again in agony and Lily saw the darkness begin to recede from her eyes.

"Nosfarus lucifires no taleweer. Saintus juterus kieeratus."

A final scream ripped from the Elf's throat and she collapsed almost against the two holding her. Lily knelt in front of her and took her face in her small hands.

"Luce, Luce are you ok?" Slowly the Elf's eyes opened and Lily sighed in relief, they were back to their sparkling blue and looking at Lily with exhausted confusion.

"Lily, what happened?"

"It's ok, you're ok now." Aaron swept her into his arms.

"I'm going to take her to bed." He looked at Tayana. "Thank you." 

He disappeared and Lily sank back to the sofa, Tayana joined her while Ryan watched his Follower disappear. "How did you know?"

"I have spent my life fighting the Angel's I know their work when I see it, now if you don't mind I need to speak to my daughter." Ryan nodded and leant to kiss Tayana's cheek, turning to Lily he stroked her hair and kissed her softly.

"I'll be upstairs poppet."

Lily nodded and waited for him to go before she took her mother's hands in her own. "Thank you for helping her, she means a hell of a lot to us."

Tayana shook her head. "It was nothing." Lily looked down and her lap.

"What are you doing here?"

"I need to tell you something, I had hoped to never have to tell you this but I can't wait any longer." Lily frowned but nodded for her to continue, her mother took a deep breath. "You cannot stay here, with Raim." 

Lily's mouth fell open and she dropped her mother's hands. "What?"

"He is not your mate, you need to come with me." Lily turned to look up the stairs praying that Ryan had not heard, looking back at her mother she shook her head violently.

"You have no idea what you're talking about, there is no one but Ryan."

"That's not true and I should have told you sooner. Its Abdiel, its always been him."

"What the fuck? Are you insane? You just said you have spent your whole life fighting Angel's why have you suddenly decided that one is now my mate?"

"Because of who your father is."

Lily's eyes widened and she moved back from her mother. "Who is he?" Tayana said nothing. "Mum! Who is my father."

"His name is Gabriel."

"Gabriel? That's an Angel's name."

"Your father is a direct descendant of the One that is Good and True. He is an Angel." 



Tormented Ch. 11



Lily shook her head and stood from the sofa, pacing in front of her mother she twisted her hands together.

"You're lying." She stopped and turned to face Tayana. "You're lying."

"I'm not, your father was an Angel."

"If he was descended from the One that is Good and True then that makes him a Eariea. An Eariea would never mate with a Demon." Her eyes widened and she took a step closer. "Are you an Angel too?"

"No baby, I am Fallen."

"Then explain to me why an Eariea would mate with a Demon?! And why you would keep it from me?! What am I?"

"I should have told you all of this before." Tayana refused to look at her daughter. "You're special Lilith, you are born of the two great families."

"What?"

Tayana finally looked into her daughters dark eyes and held out her hand, Lily crossed her arms and waited for her mother to continue. With a sigh Tayana held her hands in her lap and seemed to prepare herself for what she was going to say.

"Your father is the great grandson of the One that is Good and True, that's why he could never be with us. My great grandfather is the Condemned One."

"Lucifer?"

"Yes."

"So my father was an Eariea and you're a Saier." Tayana nodded. "So what does that make me? I have Angel and Demon blood."

"Lilith I'm so sorry I didn't tell you sooner. It is written in the sanctuary that a child born of both families will bring peace between the Angel's and the Fallen."

Lily scoffed loudly. "What there's a fucking prophecy now?! What I will help to unite Angel's and Demon's and bring peace to the world."

"Lily please." Tayana's voice was desperate and she stood trying to take her daughters hands. Lily pushed her away and took a step towards the door.

"No, you disappear for a hundred years without a word. And now you come back with this bullshit story about my ancestors and expect me to up and leave my mate on your word. I love him mum and no story about a prophecy is going to make me leave him again." She dropped her head and fought back tears. "I think you should go."

"Lilith please you have to believe me."

"Why should I? When have you ever given me reason to trust you? You have lied to me my whole life and now come here with some fucking fairy-tale about me being half pure and expect me to leave my mate and go with. And while we're on the subject, if I am not supposed to be with Ryan who am I destined to be with? Oh yeah the man who fucking kidnapped me and raped me, kept me in a cell in gold chains so I was in constant pain and suddenly I'm meant to be madly in love with him?!" she slumped into a chair facing the sofa and held her head in her hands. "Why didn't you tell me this sooner?"

"I was trying to protect you, if an Angel knew what you were I don't know what they would do."

"Does Abdiel know?"

"He knows you are different," Tayana's voice was filled with sadness. "I don't know how much he knows but he would never do anything to truly hurt you."

"You have no idea what he has done to me," Lily's voice was quiet yet trembled with rage. "He has hurt me more than I can say and I will never be his." She looked at her mother with something close to hatred in her eyes. "You need to get out."

"Lilith."

"GET OUT!" her voice rose to a scream and Tayana stood slowly.

"I'm sorry baby." 

Lily stayed in the chair until she heard the door shut then slid to the floor the tears falling from her dark eyes, she hugged her knees to her chest and curled in on herself. Ryan stood at the bottom of the stairs watching the despair of his mate, without a word he moved to sit next to her and pulled her onto his lap, she rested her head on his chest and her whole body shook as she tried to contain her sobs.

He held her through the night never asking her what her mother had said to her.

-

Lucy woke the next morning with her head pounding and her throat raw, she groaned as she turned onto her side and smiled. Aaron lay beside her his head cushioned on one arm still fully dressed. She reached out and gently stroked his face, as their skin touched it was as though an electric jolt went through her and she gasped. 

Abdiel had been in her room. His magic strong he had overpowered her, he had filled her with his hate and focused it on Lily.

"Oh god Lily." 

"She's fine." Aaron had woken and now watched her. "She's fine you didn't hurt her."

"I didn't mean to do anything, it was Abdiel. He tricked me when we went to help Ryan, he must have done something to me when it was just me and him." She looked at Aaron worry on her pretty face. "Is everyone ok?"

"They're fine, Lily's mom showed up. She helped you."

"Magic was the one thing I had, if his is more powerful than mine then I can't do anything to protect any of you."

He sat up and pulled her to him, kissing her hair he shushed her gently. "Don't worry about protecting us Elf just tell me that you're ok."

"I'm fine." She looked up and saw a question in his dark eyes. "What?"

"You said something last night."

"I did?"

"Yeah, you said the two men you had ever loved would never look twice at you. You were speaking about me and Ryan." She blushed and pulled away. "Do you love me?"

"I wasn't myself last night."

"You sounded pretty sure of that part." His face turned angry but he kept on.

"Maybe I thought I was at the time."

"You're telling me an Angel made you feel that."

"I'm telling you that I probably wouldn't have told you that way if I was myself."

"So you do love me?"

She knelt facing him. "Yes, ok yes I do."

"Good."

"Have you embarrassed me enough or do you want to tell me that I snore as well?"

"Well for one you do snore and two I want to tell you that I love you too." She sank back to the bed her eyes growing wide and a small smile curving her lips.

"Well good."

He grinned and flipped her onto her back laying between her legs. "Good." He kissed her and rolled his hips against her.

"And I don't snore." Her tone was sulky and he laughed, her dainty fingers quickly undid the buttons on his shirt and she pushed it off his shoulders along with his jacket, he ripped the dress from her body tearing the fabric and she gasped. "Hey I liked that dress."

"I'll buy you a new one." He kissed her again and stripped her underwear away, he slid a hand between her body and cupped the mound of her smooth pussy, she bit her lip and pushed her hips up against him, he pushed a finger into her tight heat and she gripped the pillow beneath her head and arched her back. He moved his finger slowly inside her until her breath was short pants against his neck. He added a second finger and curled them upwards hitting the sweet spot inside her, she moaned and arched her back. Her eyes slid closed and she bit her lip muffling her whimpered moans, he leant his head down and sucked one small, pink nipple into his mouth, his warm tongue flicked over the sensitive skin and he bit gently. She cried out her voice husky and relaxed back against the bed , her eyes opened slowly and she smiled at him.

He kissed her and wriggled out of his suit trousers and tight boxers and lay back atop her, her long legs wrapped around his waist and he thrust into her. He groaned at her tight heat and planted his fists on the bed holding his weight on his muscled arms, he began to thrust his hips slowly gritting his teeth at the feeling of his long cock sliding in and out of her.

He went slow, the last time had been fast, hard and now he needed to feel her pleasure rise as he fucked her, he wanted to drive her crazy. She moaned at the feeling of him inside her, he pressed deep before pulling out until just the tip was inside her before slowly pushing back into her, her fingers dug back into the pillow beneath her head, tearing into the soft feathers and ripping the silk covers. He changed to move his hips in a circular motion and she gasped at the sharp hit of pleasure, he hooked one hand under her knee pulling her leg to rest on his shoulder allowing him to press deeper inside her. She arched her back and cried out softly, he leant down to kissed her neck sucking at the skin and marking her.

He still kept up his torturous rhythm driving them both to the edge, making them crazy. Finally her blue eyes flew open burning with desire.

"Aaron please, let me cum."

He groaned at the pleading tone of her voice but didn't speed up. "You don't cum until I tell you to."

She whimpered at his authoritative command. "Please Aaron."

"Not. Until. I. Say." She bit her lip and threw her head back, her teeth sunk down until they broke the skin as she fought against the exquisite torture running through her body. "Please, please can I cum?"

"Not yet Elf, not until I say you can."

He sped his thrusts up slightly, she bit back a scream and her eyes pleaded with him silently. He leant down until his lips were less than a centimetre from her ear and whispered breathily.

"Cum for me Luce, let me feel you."

Her mouth fell open in a silent scream and the walls of her silken pussy gripped the length of his cock as wave after wave of pleasure gripped her body, he growled low in his throat and let go allowing his hot cum to jet into her. He still held his weight off her slightly but lowered himself to kiss her softly. She smiled sleepily and stoked his cheek.

"Wow, it's never been like that before."

He laughed softly. "Well you never told me you loved me before."

She blushed and her eyes flashed at him. "Well you never mentioned that you feel the same."

He kissed her again tasting her blood that was still on her lip. "How do you feel about spending the whole day in bed Elf?"

"Sounds perfect to me Follower."

-

"You're an Angel?"

Ryan looked at his mate, both still wore the clothed from the previous night and they were both exhausted. Lily shrugged in exasperation.

"I don't know what I am. I don't even know if she was telling the truth, she hasn't exactly been reliable," she ran her hands through her long hair and tugged on the ends. "I don't know what to believe."

They stood at opposite sides of the room staring at each other, Ryan wanted to take her in his arms, to help her understand but he couldn't. What if she was an Angel? What if she wasn't his mate? What if she was going to be taken away from him again? Lily watched the internal struggle of her mate and felt the grief fighting to burst from her chest, suddenly his face seemed to light up.

"Lucy." She frowned and waited for him to continue. "When she first touched me she could see my true face, she must have seen yours as well."

"So she'll know what I am?"

"She'll have a better idea than we do." He held his hand out to her, she walked to him and he took her face gently in his hands, he kissed her then rested his forehead on hers, she held onto his wrists and swallowed.

"What happens if I am an Angel? What happens then?"

"Shh, nothing will change."

Downstairs they knocked on the door of Lucy's room. A muffled shout came from inside and after a few minutes they emerged. Lucy wore a long t-shirt and Aaron a pair of grey sweats. Lucy pulled Lily into a tight hug and leant down to whisper in her ear.

"I'm so sorry, I never wanted to do anything to hurt you." Lily hugged back.

"You didn't, I'm sorry I didn't notice sooner I would have helped."

They broke apart and Lucy looked to Ryan. "What's happened? You guys look terrible."

"Cheers kid," Ryan couldn't help but smile. "We need your help."

"Sure what you need?"

"When you touch me you can see what I am, what do you see when you touch Lily."

Lucy shrugged. "I see Lily, over the years I've built a wall that stops me seeing you truly, both of you. But I can try."

"Please." Lily's voice was nervous and Lucy felt her own nerves rise.

"Course," the four of them moved through to the living room, Lily and Lucy stood in the middle of the room while Ryan and his Follower looked on. Lucy took the Demon's hands in her own and took a deep breath.

"This might feel weird."

Lily nodded and waited in silence, Lucy breathed out a deep sigh and shut her eyes, her shoulders relaxed and her face become devoid of all emotion. When her eyes opened again they searched Lily's face with a small frown creasing her forehead. The creature now stood in front of her was breath-taking. Her eyes were jet black pools in her unearthly face, her hair had grown, looking to reach to below her knees and changed to a pure white and lifted in an unfelt wind, her ears were tapered and her perfect teeth had elongated into curved fangs. She was naked, her skin shone with an otherworldly glow and was cool under Lucy's fingers, the wings that had burst from her shoulder blades were glassy black feathers except from a single white one on the underside of her left wing.

Lucy dropped her hands a took a step back.

"What did you see?" Lily looked back desperately at Ryan.

"I've never seen anything like you before, you're not a Demon, at least not fully."

Lily sank into a chair her hand over her mouth, Ryan was by her side in a second pulling her close and kissing her hair. "Shh it's ok baby we'll do something."

"What's going on?" Aaron and Lucy looked at the two mates with confusion and worry on their faces.

"Maybe you should sit down." They took a seat on the sofa opposite them and waited. "Lucifer found his mate in Lilith, before she was killed they had a child, anyone descended from that bloodline is Demon royalty known as the Saier. In the same way anyone descended from the One that is Good and True is known as an Eariea."

"Two royal families." Aaron spoke quietly and Ryan nodded.

"My mother," Lily took over the story her voice shaking. "My mother is descended from Lucifer meaning I was named for my great-great grandmother."

"Lilith?" Lucy now spoke trying to keep track of the story.

"Yes. My father is a Eariea, he's Angel royalty making me...I don't really know what that makes me. My mother came here yesterday to tell me and to tell me that Ryan is not my true mate, Abdiel is. And my mating with him will end the war between the Angel's and the Fallen."

Lucy's mouth hung open and she worked on what to say. "What about Ryan though, Ryan surely you must be able to see what she is."

"No, Demon's cannot see their mate truly until after the Kundii, or mating ritual where we bond ourselves to each other for good. Until then I see her as you do."

"Lily," Aaron spoke up. "Does your mother know what Abdiel did to you?" Lily nodded. "Then how could she ask you to mate with him."

"I don't know. I didn't even know if she was telling the truth until now." She stood and stared around. "I need to go and speak to her."

"I'll go with you," Ryan stood but she shrank away from his touch.

"No, stay here. I don't know what she might say and I don't want you getting hurt." She didn't wait for an answer before running from the room leaving them in an eerie silence behind her.

-

"Abi?" The Angel hung his head at the name and felt a deep sadness within him.

"I haven't been called that since I was a child." He turned and looked at the small girl stood in the doorway, her eyes were bright shining with unshed tears and her hands constantly bunched and relaxed into fists. "Why are you here Lilith?"

"I need you to tell me the truth. Putting aside everything that has happened, let's pretend we're kids and I need you to be my friend again for just a minute." He nodded. "Did you know about my father?"

"Yes."

"So you know what I am?"

"Yes."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"Your father told me not to."

"You know him?" He nodded. "If you knew all of this then you knew that according to what is written that you should have been my mate."

"Yes."

"Then why didn't you tell me?!" Her voice rose to a shout and she took a step towards him. "Why didn't you tell me? Before I came here, before I met Ryan, before all of this? Why didn't you just tell me?"

He grabbed her upper arms and pulled her to him, she struggled for a minute fighting the urge inside her before she allowed him to embrace her, she wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest enjoying the familiarity of him, his scent, his touch. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and kissed her hair breathing her in.

"I'm sorry Lily. I never wanted to hurt you."

It was almost as though a piece fell into place in her mind and she pushed him back. "So when you brought me here, chained me and raped me, you didn't want to hurt me?!" she ran her fingers through her hair her eyes turning wild. "What the fuck is wrong with everyone?! My whole life has been turned upside down and all of you are acting like nothing has changed. My own mother doesn't give a shit about my happiness, she didn't even tell me what I was until I was already bound to Ryan."

"Bound? You two have completed the Kundii?"

"Not yet, but we will." She took a step towards him and spoke with a sense of pride in her soft voice. "And next time you see me I will be carrying our child and then you will never have me."

She turned walked from the room, he called after her but she didn't even turn around. With desolate shout he slammed his fist into the wall, Lily heard his anguished cry and took a deep breath, pushing down the urge to go to him. She walked through the deserted streets of limbo, her bare feet making no sound on the stone, her head down and her mind seething.

Entering the mortal world again she sank to the grass and dropped her head into her hands.

"What do I do?" She spoke aloud, to who she did not know but it felt good to finally voice the question that had plagued her. One name remained at the forefront of her mind and she stood, her mind focused on nothing but her mate.

-

"What is a Kundii?" Lucy sat on the sofa beside Aaron, she leant against him and he absentmindedly stroked a lock of her red hair, Ryan sat in the armchair opposite twisting his hands in his lap, he smiled at the attempt to take his mind off worrying about Lily and leant back.

"It's the Demon mating ritual. Mates do it to prove that they are not afraid of the death that comes after because they know they will be with together and once it is done, the pair can have a child." Lucy's eyes widened and she sat forward urging him to continue. "We are both in our true forms and we exchange blood, this binds us to one another completely, it not only changes us but the Angels can feel the change in us. They then hunt us down. After we are bound in the Kundii we can conceive a child, that really makes us stand out to the Angels."

"Wait they would try and find you even if she was pregnant?"

"During pregnancy and for the first sixteen years of our child's life we would live in Purgatory, we are safe there, once our child has grown and left however we cannot stay. Lily's mom left before the sixteen years as without her mate with her she cannot be harmed by an Angel. If I were to leave Lily, permanently, she and our child would be safe. That's what her father did to keep her and her mother safe. Or at least that's what Tayana told her."

"Poor Lily, I cant imagine what she's going through."

"She's a strong kid, she'll be fine."

Lucy nodded, standing she bent and gently kissed Ryan's cheek. "We'll be right here if you need us."

Ryan nodded and settled himself to wait for his mate. He did not have to wait long.

"Raim?" Her voice was quiet, worry tinging the edges. "Raim? Are you here?"

He stood from the chair and stared into her face pale with worry and wet with tears, her hair hung down her back in messy tangles and her clothes were torn and bloody. She was beautiful. Slowly she took a step towards him before she faltered.

"I didn't think you would still be here."

He held out hi hand and she walked into his arms without hesitation. "Where else would I be poppet?"




Tormented Ch. 11



"I don't know, but after what happened I didn't know if you would want anything to do with me." He held her by her upper arms his grip tight and his face angry. "Don't even think about saying that. I'm never going to let you go, you will never be without me again." He kissed her and backed her against the wall, kissing her again he stroked her tangled fringe back from her face and smiled. "You're filthy baby, how about I give you a bath."

A small smile curved her soft lips and she nodded, he lifted her gently into his arms and she wrapped her legs around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder and slid her hands into his soft blonde curls. He walked slowly upstairs and into her marble en-suit bathroom, he held her to him with one muscled arm and turned the taps on full.

Placing her back on her feet he slid the zipper of her dress down and pushed it from her shoulders. She stood in front of him in nothing but her lace underwear and shivered at the dark lust on his face, he stared at her in silence and she allowed his to take his fill of her. Finally he reached out and pushed her gently so she sat on the wide edge of the bath, kneeling between her legs he kissed the inside of her thigh before nipping gently at the skin, she shuddered and lent back supporting herself on her hands on the edge of the bath. He flicked his tongue gently over the fabric of her panties and she moaned quietly, he pulled them down and off before throwing her legs over his shoulders, his arms came under her thighs holding her to his seeking mouth and he sucked on her clit gently.

"Oh Ryan." Her back arched and one hand came to tangle into his hair, his tongue dipped in and out and she tried to lift her hips against him, he held her down and continued his slow torturous rhythm, she whimpered quietly and her hand curled into fists on the edge of the tub.

He drove her to the edge with his talented tongue and when she was shaking against him he bit gently on her clit and she came against his mouth, her sweet juices flooded his mouth and he groaned at the taste of her. Slowly her breathing returned to normal and she looked back down at him with fire in her eyes. He reached behind her and turned the taps off before pulling her back to her feet she undid her bra, dropping it onto the floor to join the rest of her clothes he lifted her into the hot water and smiled at the soft groan.

"Feel good baby?" 

She nodded and turned her head slowly, her eyes were sated and she held her hand out to him.

"I love you Raim."

He laughed softly and kissed her hand. "I love you too Lilith."

She swallowed hard and seemed to steal herself for what she was about to say. "About what Tayana said..."

"Shh, shh don't think about that baby."

"Ryan we have to talk about it at some point. If what she says is true then I need to do something about it."

He lent over and kissed her quickly silencing her once again. "I know poppet and we will, soon, but for now I just want to forget that any of this ever happened. That Abdiel ever took you, that I was ever gone, that your mother ever came. I want to go back to how we were the day you told me you would stay with me. Do you remember?"

She thought back, it seemed years ago now but a warmth settled in her stomach at the memory of that day. "Of course I remember."

"Then tell me again."

"I want to stay with you. I want to start our life together and I want to make it perfect. We'll move away, into our own house, we'll be together, we'll have children."

"You want children?" He seemed surprised and she smiled sheepishly.

"I want your children, just think somewhere out there is a little Demon waiting for our child." Her eyes turned dreamy and she sat up resting on the edge of the bath and leant close to him. 

"Don't you want to give them their mate?"

He kissed her again and took her face in his large hands. "You're perfect."

She smiled wider. "I told Abdiel that next time he saw me I would be carrying your child." His eyes grew wide and his smile almost split his face in two. "You should probably help me uphold that promise." He kissed her savagely and her small hands ripped his t-shirt from his body, he moved away slightly and she tore his jeans and underwear away leaving his hard and naked in front of her. Slowly he climbed into the bath with her and pulled her to sit on his lap. She gasped at the feeling of his hard cock between her thighs and her hips began to move without her thinking, her mind was becoming clouded with lust and she held onto handfuls of his hair tightly. He cupped her ass in both hands kneading the skin and panted against her neck, she kissed the juncture of his shoulder before running her tongue up his throat and down his stubbled jaw. He groaned and moved her upwards positioning the head of his cock at her opening before pausing. Their eyes met as they realised what was about to happen and they stared at each other in silence for what seemed like hours.

"Are you sure about this?" Ryan's voice was strained with effort and he shook as he tried to keep his control. "It doesn't have to be tonight, we can wait I want you to be sure."

"I am sure."

"I don't want you to regret it in the morning," he was still shaking as the hold on his control began to slip.

She slapped him hard before grabbing his chin and turning his head back to look at her. "Shut the fuck up. You are my mate, I will never regret anything I do with you unless it involves being away from you." She lent her face close to his and whispered against his mouth. "Now shut up and fuck me."

With a growl he thrust his hips upwards and embedded his thick cock inside her, she cried out and tensed around him as her second orgasm gripped her body, he gritted his teeth against his own pleasure before beginning to gently thrust in and out of her. He moved one hand up her back to tangle in her knotted hair and pulled gently until her back arched pushing her breast against his chest, she rested her hands on his thighs behind her and moaned at the sharp pain in her head as he pulled her hair tighter, harder. He sped his thrusts up, holding her up slightly so he could thrust his hips more easily and allowed his long cock to hit against the sweet spot inside her. He felt his fangs grow and he gritted his teeth growling as the intense pleasure gripped his belly, thrusting harder he embedded himself inside her fully with each one and she bit her lip hard enough to draw blood.

"Don't hide them from me." His voice was a low growl,barely recognisable as his and she shuddered another whimper escaping her and he pulled her hair harder. "You're moans are mine, now let me hear them." He slammed her hips down onto his and she cried out as his cock hit against her cervix and she was hit with a jolt of pleasure and pain, her eyes slid closed and she allowed her moans free as he thrust hard into her.

His free hand smoothed up her stomach to gently cup one firm breast and his fingers teased the nipple making her moan. The tight walls of her pussy grew tighter around his length and her whole body shook as she came hard, a scream caught in her throat and he thrust harder drawing her climax out. Just as she thought she would pass out from pleasure he pulled her closer resting his lips against her neck. She allowed her own fangs to grow and felt the tingling heat envelop her body as the change took over her. In unison they ripped through the skin at each others necks and drank deeply. He thrust hard into her once more and jetted into her as they exchanged blood they each felt the deep bond between them strengthen, grow deeper and more powerful and when they finally collapsed, panting, each had matching grins on their faces.

"Wow," she pulled back. She was back to her usual appearance and she gently swept a curl from his forehead, kissing him gently and she smiled as a shudder racked their bodies. "Can you feel it?"

He nodded and ran his fingers through her hair working the knots from the blonde waves, he could feel her, a warm presence at the back of his mind. He could feel her happiness matching his own and the love she felt for him.

"Of course I can feel it baby."

"We really did it."

"We did."

"No turning back."

"No turning back." He smiled as the joy shone out from her.

"Then you can see what I look like?"

"You look exactly the same baby, you look beautiful."

She blushed and looked down. "You charmer." She slid from his lap and dunked her head under the water to washed her hair, leaning back against the edge of the tub she rested her legs on his lap and sighed as his large hands rubbed her feet.

"You know you're stuck with me now?" She watched him with a glint in her eye and winked.

"Oh fuck and I was hoping to sneak out when you fell asleep."

She stuck her tongue out at him. "You're an ass Ryan."

-

He sat bolt upright in his bed, his entire body was drenched in sweat and an agonising pain gripped his chest as though something had been ripped out of him. A scream tore from his throat and he ripped the bedsheets from his body.

"Abdiel? Abdiel what happened?" Tayana sat up beside him and turned with a worried look on her face.

"She did it. She fucking did it." He stood from his bed and moved to the window, running his hands through his black hair he slammed his fist into the stone wall with another shout.

"The Kundii?" She swore under her breath and stood, moving to stand behind him she wrapped her arms around his waist and kissed his bare shoulder. He shrugged her off. "Baby don't worry it doesn't mean anything."

"It means everything you stupid bitch! They are bonded! She told me the next time I saw her she would be carrying his child tell me how that doesn't mean anything!" He turned on the woman, she looked so much like her daughter and his vision began to blur he took hold of her upper arms and pushed her roughly to the bed, turning her he pushed her until her chest was flat against the bed and nudged her knees apart with his own. Spitting on his fingers he slid his hand over her ass and pushed them inside her. She groaned in a mix of pleasure and pain and tried to move away.

"Please not my ass again."

"Shut up," his voice was low as he began to saw his fingers in and out of her tight hole before positioning his cock against it. "You wanted me now take what you can get Demon." He slammed his hips forward burying himself inside her. Her hands curled into the sheets beneath her, ripping through the fabric. His thick cock stretched her until she thought she would be torn in two and she cried out, finally the pain began to subside as she became accustomed to the think length inside her ass and she began to push back against him encouraging him to go deeper.

He took hold of her wrists in one hand and held them behind her against the small of her back while his free hand came to spank her ass hard, she moaned in pleasure and surrendered herself to him.

"I'm yours, do what you want with me." He slapped her ass again and thrust harder into her, the tight walls of her ass gripped and massaged his cock and he felt his orgasm build at the base of his spine, thrusting harder he growled and held himself deep inside her as he came. She collapsed against the bed and he dropped to rest his chest on her back, kissing her neck he spoke quietly into her ear.

"You will go and speak with her. I want her and I want her now."

-

A week had passed, the house was filled with boxes and the four of them sat around the bare living room, Ryan held Lily to him tightly while Aaron and Lucy opened a bottle of wine and poured it into four glasses.

"Well here's to Ryan and Lily." Lucy raised a glass and dropped to the floor next to the pair. "And to the move. Thank you for letting us come with you."

Lily smiled but before any of them could take a sip of their wine the door slammed open. Tayana stood in the doorway staring at the four of them.

"What have you done?!" Her voice was thunderous and she took a step towards her daughter. "You stupid bitch you completed the Kundii?!"

"You knew I would mum."

She took another step towards the young girl and raised her hand to slap her face.

"I wouldn't do that Tayana." Ryan moved to stand behind his mate and rested his hand on her stomach.

"You have no say in what I do to my daughter."

"No he doesn't, but I don't think you would want to hurt your grandchild." She rested her hand over Ryan's and smiled slightly at her mother.

"What?! You're pregnant?"

"Oh come on mum, I thought you would be happy." She leant back against Ryan and felt his love and joy through their bond. "You're going to be a granny." 



Tormented Ch. 12



"You're pregnant?!" Tayana took another step towards the pair her eyes blazing. "You're fucking pregnant?!"

"I don't think she's too happy about it," Lily turned back to Ryan with a look of mock sadness on her beautiful face.

"This isn't funny you stupid girl. Do you have any idea what you have done?"

"I'm having my mates baby. Isn't that what we're meant to do?"

"You have ruined everything because of your selfishness! Now your child will live in fear because of what you have done."

"No mum, if you had told me from the beginning you could have prevented this. Everything that happens after this is on your head."

"The Angels have always granted you favour before Lilith. They wont give you that courtesy again, watch your back. All of you."

With that she left, Ryan stroked her stomach slightly feeling his excitement grow at the life growing inside her.

"You're pregnant?!" Lucy's voice was raised and Lily turned guiltily, the Elf snatched the glass of wine from her hand and looked at her sternly.

"I wasn't going to drink it."

"You're having a baby?"

"Yeah."

Lucy's face split into a wide grin and she pulled the small girl into her arms. "Oh my god, that's why you're moving. You're going to Purgatory?"

"We all are."

Lucy dragged her to sit back on the floor and they leant their heads together engaging in baby talk. Aaron clapped Ryan on the back in congratulations.

"I'm happy for you mate."

"Thanks Aaron."

"Are you worried? About what the Angel's might do? I mean a member of the Angel royal family having a Demon's child cant sit well with them."

"We have sixteen years to figure that out and we have you. We're not scared."

"They must really hate you guys."

"I'm sure they do kid." He smiled down at Lily and felt her happiness through their new bond. "I'm sure they do."

-

She woke in the middle of the night, a small noise downstairs made her jump and she slid out of bed leaving Ryan sleeping beside her, she pulled an oversized baseball jersey over her head and padded downstairs . Pulling her messy hair into a ponytail she scanned the dark rooms trying to find the source of the noise.

"Hi Abi."

A tall figure emerged from the shadows and stepped towards her, his eyes scanned her face and she noticed with surprise that he had been crying.

"Hi Angel," she looked down unable to meet his eyes.

"Don't call me that Abi, please."

"You're pregnant?" She nodded and looked at the ground. "You did tell me."

"I did."

"You're happy?"

"Yes."

"Raim is happy?"

"Of course he is."

"Then you have made your decision."

"There was never one to be made. It has always been Ryan, no one else."

"Not even when we were kids?"

She laughed softly and looked into his blue eyes. "For a while of course I loved you. You were an Angel, you were perfect. But then you left and I left and then there was Ryan and it was different. It was different then it was with me and you, I couldn't see myself without him that's when I knew."

"So you will never be mine?"

"I never was to begin with." Her eyes were sad and automatically her hand came to rest protectively against her stomach. There was no sign of a bump yet but he still felt a rush of sadness that the baby growing inside her would never be his. Slowly he nodded and walked from the room, she watched his retreating back with a mixed sense of relief and sadness.

"Are you OK?"

She jumped and turned, Ryan stood behind her his arms folded and his eyes wary. She nodded and bit her lip worriedly.

"I should have called you."

"Did he hurt you?" She shook her head, he glanced down at her stomach.

"We're both fine." he dropped to his knees in front of her hand placed both hands on her stomach.

"Good." He kissed her through the jersey and felt the energy of the life inside her. Standing he pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply.

"You're not mad at me?" Her voice was teasing and she looked up at him through her lashes.

"No, not mad." He lifted her into his arms and she wrapped her legs around his waist, walking her back into her room he lay her gently onto the bed and kissed her again. He pulled the jersey over her head and kissed her breasts softly, taking a nipple into his mouth he tongue it until she moaned quietly she slid her hands into his blonde curls and pulled him close.

He slid his hand up her thighs before the came to rest on her ribs, his thumbs stroking across her stomach. He kicked off the pyjama bottoms he wore and settled himself between her legs, she kissed him and pushed her hips up against him. He slipped a hand between their bodies and one finger found her lit, she moaned quietly and he leant down to whisper in her ear.

"So wet for me poppet." She blushed slightly.

"Shut up and fuck me."

Gently he pushed his hips forward his thick cock pressing into her, her knees came up to hug his hips and she pushed up against him, he supported his weight on his fists on the bed and began to thrust slowly.

The torturous rhythm drove her wild and she raked her nails down his back bringing angry red scratches from his skin, he hissed in a breath and stilled.

"You don't need to be careful with me." Her voice was quiet and he laughed softly, dropping his elbows down to the bed he kissed her before resting his forehead against hers.

"I don't want to hurt you."

"I've told you before, I am Fallen too. You wont hurt me." His eyes flashed to her stomach and she laughed. "You know a Demon's libido grows when they are pregnant. If you refuse to sleep with me I may have to go elsewhere."

He growled playfully and nipped her bottom lip, his hips began to move without him thinking as he continued to stare into her face.

"You wont hurt us Ryan." She rolled them before he could do anything and held his hands down either side of his head, rolling her hips she smiled as the pleasure washed over his face and sat up straight, slowly she began to move her hips up and down massaging his cock with the wet, heat of her tight pussy drawing a soft moan from her lips. 

He rested his hands on her thighs his fingers digging into her skin, the muscles in his arms bunched as he fought to keep his control. She rested her hand on his chest and sped up the thrusts of her hips and he growled loudly.

"Feeling braver now baby?" Her voice was breathy but teasing as she continued to work herself against him and he flipped her onto her back before slamming back inside her. Her pleasure came through the bond between them pushing his own higher and a red haze came over his eyes, he thrust hard into her hitting against her cervix each time he bottomed out inside her and she cried out in a mixture of pleasure and pain.

"Fuck Ryan. I'm going to cum." Her nails dug into his back again and she bit his earlobe as she came hard around him. He groaned loudly as he jetted into her before collapsing on top of her, she gently ran her fingers down his back and kissed his shoulder.

"See, no need to be careful with me." He laughed against her neck and rolled off her to lay on his back, she curled against his side and rested her chin on his chest. "Are you worried?"

"About what kid?"

"About everything, all of this. Becoming parents, what the Angel's might do to us, what my mother might do, what my father might do."

"You think your father will show up?"

"I don't know, his Angel daughter is having a Demon's baby against the wishes of her Saier mother and dishonouring the wishes of her Eariea ancestors. If anything like this had ever happened before I might have some idea about what to expect." Her eyes flashed with worry but she masked it quickly. "We'll be OK wont we?"

"Of course we will. We have sixteen years, me, you, our baby, Lucy and Aaron. We will be safe in Purgatory and after that we'll work something out."

She smiled and kissed his again. "Love you." And with that she nestled closer against him and shut her eyes falling asleep almost immediately, in her sleeping state she did not feel the tendrils of worry escaping through the bond into her own mind as he fought desperately to hide it from her. Tomorrow they would leave this world for Purgatory and finally safety.

-

Eight months had passed. The four of them had settled into life in Purgatory and had all but forgotten the danger that waited in the other world, that night Lily and Lucy sat on the comfy sofa. Lily's hair was back to the warm chestnut brown curls that hung down her back and her face was glowing, they each held a cup of tea and Lily smiled at the look on the Elf's face.

"Come on, that's proper English tea. You can't beat it."

"I'm American. I'm a coffee gal," Lily tutted. "But I have to admit this is good."

"Ryan was the same, but I can be very persuasive." She winked then her eyes widened and she grabbed the Elf's hand, placing it on her stomach she watched as Lucy smiled at the baby kicking against her hand.

"That's still my favourite thing." She turned to Ryan, he sat in an armchair beside Aaron and each held a glass of whisky. "Do you ever get tired of this?"

"Yeah the little madam kicks me all night, I've had enough of her now."

"Why are you so sure its a girl?" Lily looked at her mate a small smile playing about her lips. "Maybe its a boy."

"No, a girl. If she was a boy he wouldn't kick me all night. She's a girl." 

Ryan held his hands out to Lily and pulled her to her feet, he rested a hand on her swollen stomach, then kissing Lucy's cheek he lifted his mate into his arms and disappeared upstairs. Aaron watched Lucy with heated eyes and beckoned her with one finger, she stood slowly and almost prowled towards him, bringing her body flush to his she kissed him softly and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Hi baby." Her voice was soft and she kissed him again. He lifted her with his hands around her waist and moved her back to the sofa, laying her down he knelt on the floor between her legs, kissing her neck he revelled in her low moan and rested his hands on her thighs. Pressing his thumbs into the insides of her legs he spread them wider and pressed himself closer, she pulled his t-shirt over his head and raked her nails across his back watching as red scratches bloomed against his dark skin. He hissed in a breath and bit her neck gently, he pulled her shirt from her body with one hand before dropping his head and biting her nipple gently through the fabric of her bra. She glared down at him with fire in her blue eyes and he knew exactly what she needed, she didn't want him to be gentle and loving, she needed him in the most primal way and he was more than happy to give himself to her.

He ripped her shirt in half then, turning her so she knelt on the sofa, tied her hands behind her back with one strip of materiel, the other he used to gag her and leant to whisper in her ear.

"We don't want you to wake them up do we?" She moaned quietly behind the gag and tried to control the shaking of her body as he stripped her jeans and panties down her long legs, slowly he worked one finger into her and she moaned again against the gag she pushed back slightly and he added a second finger. Leaning closer he brought his lips close to her ear and whispered softly.

"You don't cum. Until I tell you that you can you don't cum."

She shuddered and dropped her head forward her hair falling over her shoulders, her legs shook as she held herself still, bent at the waist, her ass pushed backwards stretching the muscles in her longs legs and making him grow harder against his jeans. Her whole body trembled and her moans became louder against the gag.

In her head she pleaded with him, unable to make a sound she screamed at him in her mind. 'Please! Please let me cum.' She clenched her teeth together fighting back the pleasure that was gripping her entire body, he leant down to her ear again and flicked his tongue over the lobe. She whined and pushed hard against his fingers.

"Cum baby." His voice was a harsh whisper and he bit down on the soft skin beneath his lips. Her eyes slid closed on a soft cry and a tear slid from under the closed lid, he felt the walls of her pussy tighten further around his fingers as her shudders made her whole body tense.

Her head dropped forward and he held her up with a muscled arm around her waist, with his free hand he stripped his jeans and underwear down his legs and slowly pushed into her tight heat. He heard her sharp cry behind the gag and she pressed back drawing him deeper.

"Fuck Luce you feel so good." Aaron spoke through gritted teeth and she shuddered causing the walls of her pussy to flutter around his cock bringing a growl from his throat. Curling his fingers into her hips he began to thrust slowly she moaned and pushed back again. He slapped her ass hard and she whimpered.

Pulling out he sat on the sofa and pulled her to straddle his thighs, he held her hips and positioned her so the head of his cock hit against the entrance of her pussy, slowly he lowered her and watched as her eyes flashed when he bottomed out inside her. Taking his hands of her he lay them either side of his thighs and waited for her to move.

Slowly she began to bounce up and down on his cock, her hands clenched into fists and her head fell backwards. His hands curled into the sofa and he gritted his teeth keeping the groan silent, she rolled her hips against him allowing him to hit deeper inside her. Her back arched and her small breasts pressed against his chest, she moaned behind the gag as the smattering of dark hair teased her sensitive nipples.

With one hand he held onto the remnants of her shirt that still kept her hands behind her back and pulled, her back arched further and he stared hungrily at the curve of her body. Her hips never ceased their torturing rhythm and he clenched his fists, fighting back the pleasure that was building. With one strong hand he freed her hands and pulled the gag from the mouth until it rested around her neck then slid his fingers through her soft hair.

Her small hands came to rest on his muscled chest and he pulled her head down until their lips were an inch apart, her kissed her softly and her eyes widened at his tenderness. He grinned roguishly and threw her backwards to lie on the floor, positioning himself back between her legs he slammed back inside her and began thrusting violently.

"Oh fuck Aaron," her back arched off the floor, her hands coming over her head to curl into the rug under them. She wrapped her legs around his waist pulling him deeper, he slid his hand under her back and took hold of the materiel that was still wrapped around her neck and pulled, her mouth dropped open as her air was cut off ad she panted desperately for air.

Her abdomen began to contract and he watched as her cheeks flushed from the build up of her orgasm, her hands gripped the rug tighter and her nails ripped through the material, he pulled tighter on the restraint around her neck.

"You wanna cum baby?" 

She nodded and a whimper escaped her throat as she tried to answer.

"Say it" her soft lips moved but still no words came out. "Say it!" This last command made her jump and her plea was a horse moan.

"Please, please let me cum."

He bit her neck hard and she gritted her teeth muffling her cry so as not to wake the others. Her entire body tensed and she wrapped her legs tight around his waist as her nails ripped through the rug beneath them. He thrust hard once more into her before holding himself still and jetting into her tight pussy.

Finally he collapsed atop of her and stroked her red hair away from her face.

"I love you Elf."

"I love you too Follower."

-

Ryan lay on his back, Lily lay beside him her hand resting on her swollen stomach. Once again he felt the rush of love towards his unborn child and his mate that carried her.

Without warning a deep chill settled in his stomach. Gently he untangled himself from Lily's sleeping figure and ventures out into the cold night. Staring around the fog covered moor he looked for the source of his foreboding.

"What are you doing here?"

"I have come for her. Why else would I come here?"

Abdiel emerged from the mist and stared the Demon up and down.

"You're brave, coming here without the mother to protect you."

"I do not need protection from a Demon." Abdiel spat the words out as though they left a bad taste in his mouth. He bot his tongue and smirked. "You will stay away from Lily."

"You've said this before and I haven't listened."

"You will stay away from her or I will take your child."

Ryan froze fear gripping his heart. "What?"

"You heard me, either you leave Lilith forever or I will take your child. It's your choice Raim." 

"You wouldn't."

Abdiel smirked again as he sauntered away. "You know I would and I will unless Lily comes to me." His smug voice found Ryan's ears through the darkness. "You tell her the choice, we both know what she will do."

"Not my baby, you cant have them. You cant have them!"

-

Lily slept late the next day, stretching luxuriously she welcomed the sunlight streaming through the window and reached across the bed for Ryan.

The bed was empty and she frowned, standing she padded downstairs and saw the others sat at the kitchen table, Aaron and Ryan were dressed in smart suits while Lucy sipped coffee in her pyjamas.

"Morning baby," Ryan stood and kissed her before pulling a chair out, he handed her a cup of tea and a doughnut and she frowned.

"What have you done?"

"Nothing," he put another doughnut on the plate and she folded her arms over her bump.

"Ryan what have you done?"

"I haven't done anything poppet, I just need to go out for the day."

"Out? Out where?"

"I need to check on the restaurants, I wont be long."

"You're going back? You cant."

"Come on Lily, you'll be fine. I'll only be a couple of hours." He stroked her cheek. "Besides I'll have Aaron and Lucy will be here with you, everything will be fine."

"Ok, I trust you." Her eyes flashed and she smiled cheekily. "Get us another doughnut will you?"

He laughed and grabbed her another homemade doughnut from the plate on the side before kissing her gently on the nose, kneeling in front of her he rested his hand on her stomach and spoke seriously. "Don't you give mummy anything to worry about when I'm gone you hear?" He felt his child kick and kissed her belly. "That's my girls."

The two women watched as the Demon and his Follower left before Lily turned to the Elf worriedly.

"What if something happens to him while he's out there? What if he doesn't come back?"

"Hush, you'll stress yourself." Lucy took her hand. "Nothing will happen to him."

Lily nodded then winced holding her stomach, Lucy automatically gripped her hand tighter and her eyes widened.

"Are you OK? What's happening?"

Lily smiled and waved off her worry. "It's nothing, its been happening a lot. Everyone says its normal."

Another pain gripped her and she held on tighter. 

"Are you sure you're OK?" Lucy knelt in front of her as Ryan had just done and placed her hand on the pregnant Demons stomach, she felt movement beneath her fingers.

"I'm fine, I think I might just go and lie down, they can get pretty painful."

"Shout if you need anything kid." Lily kissed the Elf's cheek and left the room. Lucy watched after her worry creeping into her gut, she stayed where she was downstairs listening carefully for any sound from the Demon upstairs.

An hour passed, then two. A soft cry from upstairs made her jump and she sprinted upstairs, she hesitated outside Lily's door before walking in. she sat up in bed, her skin was pale and covered in a thin sheen of sweat, she clutched her stomach and looked up with worry in her dark eyes.

"I think, I think my waters have broken."

"Shit," Lucy moved to the edge of the bed and stroked back Lily's hair. "Ok, its OK. Just breathe, I'll ring Ryan and get him back."




Tormented Ch. 12



She pulled out her phone and dialled quickly. It went straight to voice mail.

"Fuck," taking hold of Lily's hand she squeezed gently. "I can't get through."

"Oh shit, I cant even call him."

"Call him? Would your phone work? I can go get it?"

She moved to get off the bed but Lily grabbed her hand tighter. "No I mean the bond. When a Demon is in labour they are rendered mortal. I'm not bonded with him until the baby comes."

"Will he feel it? Will he know the bonds been broken?"

"I hope so. I need him here."

Lucy moved closer unsure of what to do, she softly stroked the Demons hair and spoke quietly trying to keep her calm.

"Hurry up Ryan."

-

Aaron and Ryan returned late that evening, they had stayed for drinks with the employees at the restaurant and now, slightly tipsy, they stumbled back through the portal. 

The minute they entered Purgatory each felt a agonising ripping sensation in their chest.

"Shit!" Ryan's face immediately turned sober and he looked over the mist covered moors towards the tiny light that was their home.

"Lily?"

"Yeah, the bonds been broken."

"Is she OK?" Aaron seemed to shiver beside him a strange energy coming from him.

"My closest friend," Ryan placed a hand on Aaron's shoulder. "Are you ready to become an uncle?"

Aaron instantly calmed and smiled. "Go."

Together they set off at a sprint towards the light, as they got closer the ache in their chests grew until they were panting with the pain.

Crashing through the door they skidded to a halt and Ryan looked up to the ceiling. A soft cry caught their attention and Ryan shifted where he stood.

"What are you waiting for dude, go up."

"I cant." Ryan sounded pained, his fists clenching and unclenching at his side.

"Why?"

"I cant, the Angels cursed the birth of any Fallen child. If the mate is present I don't want to think what might happen, the last reported incident of a Fallen witnessing the birth of his first child didn't end well. A couple of months after the birth the mother became ill, very ill. She died a week later. He had to watch her waste away because he wanted to be their to see his son born."

"So you cant go to her?"

"I cant." Ryan's voice raised in a shout and he punched the wall. "I cant be there for her because of what might happen to her!"

"Ryan, she'll know you're here. That's all she needs."

Together they sat on the sofa and waited, an hour passed, then two, when the third hour hit Ryan stood again.

"I cant take this!" He went to the bottom of the stairs and paced angrily. "What's taking so long?!"

"Dude you know what's happening up there right? I hear it takes a while."

"Don't be a smartass!"

"It's why we get on so well. Now sit the fuck down and stop worrying!"

Ryan slumped back onto the sofa and dropped his head in his hands, almost immediately though, he leapt back up.

Aaron listened to soft footsteps as they came down the stairs and Lucy entered the room.

"They're waiting for you."

She fell onto Aaron's lap exhausted and smiled at the Demon who now stood still, unsure of what to do.

"Go on, You've been whining for the last three hours hurry up."

Ryan nodded and slowly walked upstairs, suddenly terrified he slowed outside their room. What if he didn't know what to do? What if he didn't bond with his child? What if having a child hurt his relationship with Lily?

A sound caught his ear and he listened carefully, a sweet voice drifted from the room. An old Demon lullaby, slowly he pushed open the door and his heart tugged at the sight.

She lay on her side, her hair was tousled, her face exhausted but when she looked at him the love in her eyes was beautiful. She was perfect.

By her side a tiny figure was swaddled in a cream blanket, a tiny hand clutched at Lily's finger as she sang and she smiled at him.

"Would you like to meet your child?"

He nodded unable to say anything and moved tentatively towards the bed, looking down into the tiny face he felt breathless. The head was covered in soft blonde hair, a tiny button nose and soft lips reminding him of his mate and when the eyes finally moved to him he smiled. They were dark, almost black like Lily's, with bright green flecks showed against the black.

"Meet Mae Tayana Forsteer, Mae say hi to your daddy."

"You named her?"

"After your mum," she smiled down at her daughter. "I thought she would have liked that."

"She's perfect." He took another small step towards them. "Can I hold her?"

She said nothing just raised an eyebrow, he laughed nervously and picked up his daughter, holding her gently to his chest he stroked her soft cheek with the back of one knuckle and she grasped his finger with her whole hand.

Tears welled in his eyes and he laughed. "She looks like you."

"Thank Lucifer for that." She joked sleepily, her eyes were already closing and she curled into a tight ball, carefully he leant down to kiss her and whispered in her ear.

"I love you so much." She smiled in her sleep and quietly he walked downstairs to show his famiily the new addition.



Tormented Ch. 13



"I don't know Ryan she's still so tiny."

He rested his hands on her shoulders and turned her away from the crib, kissing her forehead his eyes flicked over her face. She wore a black dress, sleeveless with a tight fitting bodice, it flared at her belly button to a short skirt then brushed the tops of her thighs, black ankle boots with heels at least seven inches stretched her legs out making the muscles flex and play under her soft skin. He wrapped his arms round her waist and pulled her close, kissing her roughly he felt her shudder against him and slid his hands down to rest on her ass pulling her hips intimately against his own.

"She'll be fine, Lucy and Aaron said they would watch her and I haven't had you to myself in almost a month." His pressed his hard erection against her again and her cheeks flushed with arousal. "Now are you coming or do I have to force you?" He lifted her into his arms and wrapped her legs around his waist, her breath caught in her throat and she hooked her hands around his neck.

"Maybe I want you to force me, I might like it."

"Fuck Lily," he kissed her again. "Come on, I don't want anyone to know what I'm going to do to you."

He placed her back on her floor and kissed the sleeping child on the forehead. "Bye Mae."

"Bye baby," Lily called over her shoulder. Outside he took her into his arms and kissed her again.

"Ready to go?"

She nodded. "Where are we going?"

"I was thinking dinner, drinks, maybe some dancing then if you're lucky I might just take you back to mine."

"You mean ours? Its our house."

"No no baby, we wont be back there until tomorrow. We're going to mine."

Her face fell as realisation hit her and she stepped out of his arms and moved a step back. "No Ryan we cant."

"It will be fine."

"No!" She shook her head. "No we came here to be safe. To keep Mae safe! What happens if we don't come back huh? What happens to her then?! We don't get protection outside of Purgatory and the Angels know that and they'll be all over us, especially now we have a child. I don't want my little girl to live her life as an orphan!"

"Lily please will you listen to me?" She quietened and looked at him with worried eyes, her chest rose and fell quickly as she tried to steady her breathing and her hands twisted nervously. "You really think that I would take you out there without protection? Lily I've almost lost you too many times to the Angels I am not taking any chances this time, especially now we have Mae." He placed his hand on her cheek and stroked her soft skin with his thumb. "I would do anything to keep you two safe, I will not lose you again. Either of you."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be, Lucy has given me some spells that will hide us from the Angels when we're out there. They wont even know that we're Fallen."

She kissed him gently and her eyes shone as they stared into his. "How did I get so lucky?"

He smiled. "Who knows kid." Taking her hands he smiled before closing his eyes and chanting low under his breath, he spoke too fast for her to make out the words but the language was flowing like water over stones. A soft heat enveloped her body and she gasped, when he stopped speaking she looked at their bodies, their skin seemed to glow and she cocked her head to the side.

"Is it only us that can see that?"

"Yeah, to everyone else, including the Angels, we are regular humans, on date night."

She smiled and looked down at the ground. "Fine, I trust you."

He kissed her forehead and she felt another warm sensation wash through her body, she closed her eyes and simply enjoyed the feeling of being close to her mate. When she opened her eyes she glanced around and smiled.

"You know, I think I've actually missed being here." She looked round at the buildings and took a deep breath, filling her lungs with the sea air. "So, where are we going."

A large black car pulled up alongside them and he opened the door for her, she slid into the back seat, Ryan sat next to her and took her hand. A dark haired man turned to them and smiled.

"Where to boss?"

Her memory jolted as she looked at the man but she couldn't put her finger on where she had seen him before, he winked fondly at her and she couldn't help the grin on her face.

"Celadon," Ryan spoke but didn't take his eyes off her face. "And take the scenic route."

The dark haired man nodded and pulled away from the curb, Ryan still had not taken his eyes of her face and she felt herself flush with embarrassment under his stare. Still without taking his eyes from her he reached out and pressed the button to raise the black screen between the driver and back seats, pulling her onto his lap he spread her legs to rest either side of his and kissed her shoulder. She faced away from him and her dark eyes looked nervously through to the front.

"Ryan," her voice was breathless and he felt lust jolt his stomach. "What if someone sees us?"

"No one can see us poppet," he nipped at her shoulder and she shuddered, he took hold of both wrists in one hand and held them behind her back pushing her chest out and creating a beautiful curve in her back. His free hand slid over her waist and rested gently on her stomach, he felt her tremble as the shivers chased themselves across her skin and breathed softly into her ear. "We have plenty of time, let me enjoy you."

His hand slid down to her thigh and slowly he pushed her dress up until it rested around her hips, teasing the edge of her lace thong with his fingertips making her hands curl into fists behind her back. With a low growl he tore the lace away from her baring her to the cool air.

"Ryan," she bit her lip and sucked in a quick breath. "You're going to get us into trouble."

Tracing his finger round her clit she allowed another moan free, she tried to bring her legs together but he stopped her with a sharp slap on her thigh. She jumped at the pain and shivered.

"You don't move, you understand?" She nodded. "Tell me."

"I understand."

Her voice was hushed and she let her head drop forward, slowly he pushed one finger inside her pussy and she bit her lip trying to keep her cry from making any sound.

"Don't worry poppet, he cant hear you." He pushed deeper and this time she let the sound free and her muscles tensed, he added a second finger and began to slowly work them in and out of her tightness, she thrust her hips forward against his hand and he smiled. He felt the slick walls of her pussy tighten around his fingers and ceased his movements. She whimpered softly in frustration and pushed her hips harder against his fingers, wrapping his arm around her ribs he kept her still and she giggled softly.

"You're teasing me."

"I thought you liked it last time."

"You know what I like," he growled into her ear and pushed his finger back into her, she bit her lip and her ass pushed backwards against his crotch and she felt his long, hard length. Slowly she began to grind in his lap and he gritted his teeth, she pushed herself away from him and knelt on the floor of the car between his legs. Her nimble, quick fingers undid the belt, button and zip of his trousers and she stroked his hardness through the materiel of his underwear, he groaned and dropped his head back against the soft leather of the seat, pulling the waistband down she blew gently on the soft skin of his shaft and his hands curled into fists beside him, taking him in her small hand she began to pump up and down slowly before taking the head of his cock into her warm mouth.

"Oh fuck." His voice was a deep rumble in his chest and his hips thrust upwards slightly, she pushed her head down his length, feeling him slide down her throat she moaned and pushed down harder until her nose bumped his stomach. Her throat massaged his thick cock before she pulled back and ran her tongue around the head, taking him back into her throat she moaned and the vibrations ran through him, he curled his fingers into her hair and pushed her head further down. Thrusting his hips hard against her he let out another guttural groan and lifted her from the floor, placing her on his lap and kissed her.

"I want you to promise me something." 

"What?" Her voice was breathless and her cheeks flushed.

"You don't cum. Not until I tell you."

"I wont."

"Promise," he pulled her knickers down legs and threw them to the floor before pulling her legs so they fell either side of his own.

"I promise." His smile was almost feral and he pushed his trousers down his legs freeing himself completely and lowered her onto his thick length. She whimpered as he filled her, stretching her sweetly and clutched at his shoulders.

"Remember, don't cum."

Slowly he began to thrust into her growling at the feeling of her tight heat gripping his length, it had been too long since she had felt him inside her and her head fell back as she cried out. Her muscles tensed as she kept the orgasm at bay even as the pleasure rose in her abdomen, her whole body trembled and her nails dug into the soft skin at the back of his neck and he hissed in a small breath in pain. Taking hold of her hips he lifted her slightly from his lap and sped up his movements. She bit her lip and her nails dragged down his neck, over his shoulders and down to his white shirt. He placed his lips on her neck and kissed her softly, she shuddered in his arms.

"Please Raim." He voice was pleading, desperate.

"Don't you dare cum." He spoke through gritted teeth and his hand slid over her hip, his thumb found her clit and he stroked gently bringing another hoarse cry from her throat. "Don't you dare."

He thrust harder as his climax began to build in his stomach, throwing his head back he gritted his teeth and jetted into her, she moaned as his hot cum filled her and fought against her own orgasm. He ran his fingers over her sensitive skin and she whimpered.

"Raim please."

"You're a good girl," he kissed her softly and tipped her back to sit next to him, kneeling in front of her he slid her knickers back up her legs before kissing her again. "Such a good girl."

"You're unbelievable." Her breath was shaky and her whole body trembled.

"And you're perfect." He sat back next to her and took her hand in his, kissing the inside of her wrist he smiled mischievously. "You always have been."

The car pulled to a smooth stop before she could do anything else and he kissed her knuckles, the driver opened the door and held his hand out to her. Throwing one last glare at her mate she took the young man's hand and smiled sweetly.

"Thank you."

"Miss Lily," he bowed his head slightly.

Ryan stepped from the car and placed one large hand low on her back, she shuddered at his touch and pressed close to his side, together they walked through the large doors and he spoke to the young woman.

"Table for two under Morgan."

She smiled brightly and nodded. "Of course Mr Morgan, if you'd like to follow me."

She lead them through the large space, lit by candles it had an intimate air to it. The young woman lead them through the tables to the centre of the room, a large pool filled with clear water shimmered in the light, flowers and candles floated on the surface and he bent to pick one from the water. Handing it to her Lily he watched as she giggled softly and her eyes fell to the floor as though she were embarrassed. He pulled her chair out before seating himself opposite her, the woman handed them each a menu and a young man appeared holding a bottle of champagne.

"Compliments of the management." He poured them each a glass before placing the bottle in a bucket of ice and leaving them. Lily took a sip of the champagne and licked her lips.

"This is amazing. How do you find places like this?"

"This is another of mine, and actually mine. Not the Johanson's."

"You bought it?"

"I built it. Two hundred years ago and still its one of the most successful restaurants in California."

She watched her mate fondly as he swelled with pride and took his hand, kissing the tips of his fingers she glanced back at him her eyes dark and lustful. He ran his thumb over her soft bottom lip and leant across the table to kiss her gently.

Three waiters appeared at their table with trays laden with plates of food, placing them on the table they disappeared and a second later one returned with four bottles of wine, he placed them in a line on a wheeled table before going again. She breathed in deeply.

"Oh my god that smells amazing." She glances round at the exotic dishes in front of her. "What exactly do you serve here?"

"Thai," he speared a piece of meat on his fork and offered it towards her, she took it into her mouth and her eyes shut. 

"Oh my god, that's the most amazing thing I've ever tasted. What is it?"

"Panang Gai, its one our specialities here." He took a bite and poured them each a large glass of wine. She took another bite and glanced around the restaurant.

"You built this?" He nodded. "Wow, its beautiful Raim."

"I built it for you." 

Her eyes widened and she turned back to look at him. "For me?"

"I never think about anything else, everything I do, I do for you. I always thought this would be where I would bring you, sweep you off your feet and convince you to stay. I don't think I know anyone who fought what they were born for as long as you fought me."

She laughed softly. "I've always been stubborn."

"I was going to sit you right here, the pool would have been filled with light. I was going to buy a ring, like a real marriage, then everyone would know that you were mine."

Her eyes shone and she bit her lip. "You would have done that for me?"

"I would do anything for you."

"Could we still get the rings?" He laughed and took her left hand stroking his thumb over her ring finger.

"You want the rings?" She nodded. "Then we'll get the rings."

Her grin widened and she pulled him towards her with a hand on the back of his neck, the kiss started chaste but with a soft moan only he could hear she opened her lips under his, his tongue danced into her soft mouth and he bit her lower lip. Turning he saw an elderly couple on a table close them watching them, smiling sweetly at them he winked before turning back to Lily.

Giggled and hid her face in her hands. "I almost forgot where we were." He laughed and drank from his wine.

"I can't help it, you're very tempting."

She shook her head and continued eating, he reached out to take her hand but she pulled it away with a mischievous smile. "No no, you wanted to go to dinner so I am going to eat dinner." She took another bite and winked. "You should really have some of this, its so good."

He growled low in his throat and she giggled quietly. "You're so impatient, I thought you wanted the evening just me and you. Surely there will be time later for everything you want to do." She slipped her foot out of her heeled shoe and ran the sole down his thigh, he swallowed and looked around.

"You're a fucking tease Lilith."

Her face was the picture of innocence as she gently brushed her foot across the growing bulge in his trousers and he balled his hands into fists on the table, his eyes darted back and forth taking in the other diners before turning to look back at her.

"I need you."

"Here? But Ryan I thought we had plenty of time to enjoy each other. You don't want to cut dinner short do you?" She pressed her foot firmly against the long length of his erection and rubbed slowly.

His eyes slammed shut and he growled, she giggled softly and crossed her legs again, leaning forward she rested her chin on one fist. "Although I suppose if you really cant wait I could help you out."

She stood and walked round the table to stand behind him, trailing her hand lightly across his broad shoulders she kissed his neck before walking slowly to the bathroom, turning she winked before disappearing. His eyes darted around the restaurant and he swore under his breath before pushing his chair back and following her, once inside he locked the door and turned to look at her. She stood at the sink her hands behind her back and a mischievous smile on her face, tilting her head to the side she looked at him from under her thick eyelashes.

"You know this is the ladies room right?" He said nothing but his green eyes flashed dangerously and he took a step towards her. "You could get us into trouble." He crossed the room and lifted her into his arms, she wrapped her legs around his waist and threaded her fingers through his hair, bringing her face close to his she kissed him softly and smiled. "You could get us into lots of trouble."

"How can I get in trouble when I own the place?" He set her on the counter and stepped between her legs, reaching between her legs he stroked his fingers down the lace of her underwear and felt her. "So wet." He dropped to his knees and pushed her dress up round her hips, leaning closer he ripped her panties away from her body and balled them up in his hand. Pulling her legs over his shoulder he rested his forearm across her hips keeping her still and slowly licked the inside of her thigh, she shuddered and arched her back, running her hand though her hair she hissed in a breath as his tongue found her clit.

Dipping his tongue inside her he groaned at the taste of her sweet juices, standing he undid his belt, button and fly and stepped back between her legs, positioning the head of his cock against her opening he pushed the first couple of inches into her tight heat. She moaned and dropped her head back, her legs wrapped round his waist trying to pull him closer but he resisted instead he leant forward and kissed her neck gently.

"You feel so fucking good." His voice was harsh and she shivered as his warm breath hit her ear and his stubble scratched at her soft skin, he pushed deeper and his large hands gripped her hips hard leaving bruises on the skin. Inch by inch he eased into her until finally he embedded deep within her and a deep groan rumbled from his chest, slowly he began to move in and out and she whimpered as his slow rhythm drove her wild. 

"Ryan." Her voice was a soft plea and her eyes begged him. With a feral smile he pulled her from the counter and turned her, pushing on her back until she bent at the waist he slammed back into her and she bit back a cry, placing his hands back on her hips he began thrusting violently inside her. Her hands curled into the marble counter and her nails left deep gauges. Reaching forward he tangled his fingers in her hair and pulled her head up until she met his eyes in the mirror.

"I want you to watch yourself." She shuddered and looked down at her own pleasure filled face, her cheeks were flushed and her black eyes flashed, she went to drop her head but his tight grip pulled her head back and he growled. "Don't fucking move."

His eyes never once left hers in the reflection and he pride a rush of pride as her mouth dropped open on a sharp cry and she pushed back against him feeling him go even deeper. Her nails dug deeper into the marble and he heard it crack under her strength, tightening his grip on her hair further still he leant down and rested his lips against her neck, he allowed his fangs to lengthen and touch her skin lightly and she gasped her eyes going wide as she looked at him in the mirrors reflection.

Slowly he bit down and she hissed as the sharp sting sent a jolt of pleasure through her, she gritted her teeth as her stomach clenched. He felt the tight walls of her pussy flutter around his hard length and knew she was close, speeding up his thrusts he groaned against her neck and reach around her waist and found her clit with one finger. He pressed hard and she cried out, her head falling forward as she came hard around his his thick cock. With a low growl he jetted into her dropping his head to rest on her back he listened to their ragged breathing and let out a soft laugh, stuffing her panties into his pockets he stroked one large hand down her back and felt her shudder.




Tormented Ch. 13



"Holy shit," she shook her head giggling softly and turned, he wrapped his arms around her shoulders and she held him around the waist. "I guess I have been pretty busy with Mae, I've missed you."

He tucked one unruly curl behind her ear and kissed her forehead. "I've missed you too." Her nimble fingers fastened his button, fly and belt and she reached up to kiss his nose. 

"Do you think anyone heard us?" Her voice was husky and warm with laughter, he allowed his eyes to roam over his beautiful mate, the small wound on her neck was already healing and a drop of blood rested in the curve where her neck and shoulder met. Gently he licked it away and smiled at her small intake of breath.

"And if they did?"

"Shall we go back?"

"Think we can make it through the rest of dinner?" His voice was mischievous. "Or we could just go back to my place?" he pressed her back against the counter dropping his hands to rest of the ruined marble and pressing his hips against hers, he was hard again and she moaned at the feel of him. "I can think of a hell of a lot more things I want to do to you."

She smiled and her small pink tongue darted out to wet her lips. "Take me home." He grinned and swung her round until she rested on his back, she giggled softly into his ear and kissed his cheek. "Won't they notice us leaving, this could cause some talk."

"It's like you don't know me at all." Holding her legs around his hips he sprinted from the bathroom, moving faster than any human eye could see he streaked through the restaurant listening with pleasure at the confused stutterings of the other diners.

"Did you just feel a breeze?"

"Has someone opened a window?"

"What the hell was that?"

Outside he continued running and didn't stop until they were concealed in the darkness an alley before setting her back on her feet and threading his hands through her soft hair.

"How does a walk home sound?"

She smiled. "A romantic evening walk? Why Ryan when did you become so perfect?"

He swatted her behind and she giggled, taking hold of her hand he lead her from the alley and began walking towards his apartment, she snuggled against his side while her free hand curled around the hard muscle of his arm. She rested her head on his shoulder and just enjoyed being close to her mate, the night was warm and she nestled closer enjoying the feeling of him. They were quiet, nothing needed to be said and he moved his arm to rest across her shoulders, slipping hers around his waist she cuddled closer.

When they reached his apartment building he opened the door and ushered her inside first, after locking the door behind them he turned to her. Her pretty face was lit with a smile and she blushed slightly under his gaze.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Like what?"

She gestured to him. "Like that."

"Because I still cant believe how lucky I am. Of all the Demons I could have been paired to I get you," his eyes roamed over her. "You're perfect."

She looked at the floor and her cheeks flushed a deeper red, he moved to stand in front of her and took her hand, kissing the inside of her wrist he threaded the fingers of his free hand through her hair and rested his forehead on hers. For a while they just stood there, he stroked the back of her neck and her free hand slid down his chest to the waistband of his trousers. She pulled him closer and kissed him, her tongue darted out and flicked over her lower lip.

"Come with me." She stepped away and turned leading him down through the spacious lounge and into the bedroom, looking round she smiled sadly.

"It doesn't look any different."

"What do you mean."

She turned back to him and wrapped her arms around her waist. "You died in here Ryan, I thought I lost you." Her eyes sparkled with tears and she shook her head. "It's just strange being back here."

"I came back." He stepped to her and wrapped her arms around her waist. "You brought me back and I'm never going to leave you again." 

With a sly grin she kissed him before slowly dropping to her knees in front of him, quickly she undid his belt and trousers and pushed them down his legs, leaning close she ran her tongue over his length through his underwear. He groaned and rested his hands on her head stroking her soft hair, pulling his underwear down she took the head of his cock into her warm mouth and his grip tightened on her hair. She steadied herself with her hands on his strong thighs and pushed her head down his length taking him deep into her throat, another deep groan rumbled through his chest and he began thrusting slowly in and out of her mouth. Her nails curled into his skin and he hissed in a breath at the sharp sting, pulling her head closer to him he held himself deep in her throat.

Roughly he pulled her away and to her feet still with a firm grip on her long hair, kissing her he pushed her backwards until she hit the bed, lifting her he placed her on the soft sheets, kissing her neck his hand slipped round her body and slid the zip of her dress down her back, pulling it away from her he kissed each full breast, he resisted his urge to suck the erect nipples into his mouth knowing they were still tender from milk. Instead he contented himself with kissing the underside of each soft breast before nipping at her ribs. She arched her back and held onto him round his neck, pushing her dress down further he kissed down her stomach pausing to flick his tongue into her bellybutton and she giggled.

"Ryan," her voice was filled with laughter and he looked up her body to her smiling face. "That tickles." With a naughty smile he flicked his tongue catching her abdomen and she giggled again.

Pulling her dress down her legs he threw it on the floor behind him, stripping down until he too was naked he moved back between her legs, he gently nipped the soft skin of her hip before moving down to the inside of her thigh. Running his tongue down her slit she moaned and pushed her hips closer to his searching mouth, pushing a finger inside her he twisted hitting the sweet spot deep within her and she arched her back trying to get closer. Flicking his tongue against her clit he heard her moan and repeated the action, adding a second finger he began to saw in and out of her and her nails curled into the sheets beneath her.

"Oh fuck, Ryan." Her voice was husky and her breath sped up. "God I'm going to cum."

He moved his fingers faster and deeper inside her while his tongue pressed harder against her small nub as she moaned and her toes curled in pleasure. With a sly smile he gently bit down on her sensitive clit and she cried out as she came hard, her whole body shook before collapsing back on the bed. Kissing his way back up her body he nipped her collar bone before kissing her lips softly allowing her to taste herself on his mouth. Her entire body was limp and she let out a small laugh.

"How do you do this to me?" Her eyes opened slowly and he was almost shocked to see the unbridled lust there, they were jet black and flashed dangerously. Before he knew what was happening she had flipped them so she straddled his strong hips and leant down to kiss him again, the sight of her small body above his muscled one struck home with him as he realised how dainty, even delicate she really was. But as she took his hands and held them above his head he saw the strength that was bestowed on all the Fallen. Leaning back down she whispered into his ear.

"Don't touch me."

Sliding down the bed she ran her nails up his thighs and shivers ran across his skin. He hissed in a breath and pushed himself onto his elbows to look down at her, her long curly hair fell over her shoulders hiding her firm breasts from his view, her dark eyes looked up at him through her long eyelashes and she winked. Taking his thick length in her small hand she gripped him and he grunted, flicking her tongue out she caught the head of his cock tasting his pre-cum and moaning in her throat.

"Mmm, you taste good baby."

Sucking the tip of his cock into her warm mouth she swirled her tongue around the sensitive skin before dipping her head lower taking more of him into her mouth and down her throat, her hand still gripped the base and she squeezed gently ripping a guttural groan from his chest.

His hands moved to rest on her head but she jerked backwards. "I said don't touch me." He groaned again, this time in frustration, and moved his hands back to the bed. His strong fingers gripped the sheets and she herd a soft rip, smiling she lowered herself back onto his cock, it slid down her throat easily and she swallowed.

"Oh fuck." His voice was hard as her throat massaged his length and subconsciously he pushed his hips upwards, he was close but before his orgasm could come she moved back and placed her hands in her lap. His eyes widened and he sat up staring at her with frustration on his handsome face, the hard muscles in his arms flexed as he tried to keep himself still, stopping himself from reaching out to her.

"Lily please." He cock twitched and his eyes slid closed. "Please."

She did nothing. For what seemed like hours they just sat facing each other, neither spoke. His stomach clenched as he stared at his beautiful mate and he gritted his teeth.

"Lily." His voice was quiet and filled with desperation, her will snapped and she knelt to press her lips against his. He shuddered and pushed the fingers of one hand through her hair, gripping tightly at the nape of her neck he deepened the kiss. Pulling her close to his chest he lifted her into his arms and stood from the bed, walking until he felt her back hit the wall he took hold of her hands, entwining their fingers he held her hands against the wall supporting her weight solely on his strong legs and kissed her neck. Pushing deep inside her he growled his eyes flashing.

"Oh," her moan was soft and her dark eyes closed.

"Open your eyes, I want to see you," they fluttered open and he smiled at the unbridled passion he saw there. Slowly he began thrusting in and out of her feeling her hot juices coat his hard length, she shuddered and her back arched pressing her breasts against his chest, the soft hair covering him teased her sensitive nipples and she whimpered at the feel of him. Her legs tightened around his waist as his thick girth stretched her making her cry out, her head dropped forward onto his shoulder and he laughed.

"You finished already poppet?"

She could barely speak her breathing ragged and her chest rising and falling quickly as she savoured the feeling of him inside her, she shook her head and he laughed again.

"Good, I've only just started." Kissing her neck then collarbone he nipped gently at her skin. "God I could just eat you up."

With that he began to thrust into her, deep, desperate, needing to feel all of her. Again and again he bottomed out inside her tight heat and she cried out in a mixture of pain and pleasure, her stomach clenched and she bit his shoulder hard enough to draw blood. With a deep growl he threw her to the floor and fell back between her spread legs, slamming back into her his vision blurred as his hips thrust against her faster and her whole body tensed as pleasure gripped her, with a final twist of his hips he hit against the sweet spot inside her and she cried out as she came.

Before she even had time to catch her breath he had rolled them she she sat atop his hip and held her up slightly before thrusting upwards into her, her hands crept up to grip her hair and she whimpered as he hit even deeper inside her.

"Again." His voice was a deep growl, commanding and harsh and she moaned. Her stomach clenched and she hissed through gritted teeth, her back arched and he gazed up at her perfect silhouette. Her tight pussy clamped down around his cock and she collapsed back on his chest as another orgasm ripped through her body.

He wrapped his arms around her and felt the shivers grip her, more gently this time he flipped them so she was on all fours in front of him, sliding back inside her he held onto her long hair and pulled her head up.

"Again."

This time she shook her head. "Please Raim I cant."

"I said again, I want to feel you again." He pulled her head back to rest on his shoulder and his free hand rested on her smooth mound, he pressed on her clit with his fingers and she cried out loudly. He began rubbing back and forth over her sensitive nub in time with his hard thrusts. The shivers began again and her whole body tensed. He felt his own orgasms building at the base of his spine and his fingers sped up on her clit.

"I can't, not again."

"If I fucking say you can then you can." His voice was feral and she barely recognised it, with a deep growl that resonated through his chest and into her back he piched down on her clit and she screamed in pleasure. He gritted his teeth and jetted into her his whole body jerking at the force of his orgasm. 

Exhausted they both fell to the floor, lying on their stomachs his arm draped over her back and their legs tangled together. Without another word they both fell into a deep sleep.

*

They both woke late the next morning, throwing on some sweatpants from the closet they went downstairs for breakfast. They spoke about mundane things and for the first time in months felt completely at ease. When they had finished eating he took her in his arms and she once again felt the warmth envelope her and when she took her head from his chest they were back home.

A cold dread settled in their stomachs the minute they arrived back. She looked up into his face her eyes wide.

"Mae." Taking off at a sprint they arrived back at the house in less than a minute, the door was torn off its hinges and she let out a sob. "Oh Lucifer no."

Inside the house had been torn apart, they skidded to a halt in the lounge and her hand flew to her mouth. Aaron and Lucy lay on the floor surrounding by debris, Aaron's eyes flickered to them and he winced, when he spoke his voice was hoarse and filled with agony.

"It was Angel's, how did they get here? I thought things were safe here."

Lily's dark eyes flickered between her mate and his Follower before glancing up at the ceiling.

"Mae." Together her and Ryan ran from the room and skidded to a halt outside their daughters room, the door had deep gauges in the wood and the room was silent. Tentatively she took a step into the room and looked around at the destruction, furniture was upturned, wallpaper hung from the walls in strips and the cot was tipped on its side. With a cry of anguish she turned to him. "Mae! Ryan where is she?"

In the silence that followed her frantic question a small whimper then a stuttering cry reached their ears, they followed the sound to the closet and she dropped to her knees when she saw the beautiful face of her daughter. Holding her to her chest she turned to Ryan who took them both in his arms.

"I'm so sorry Lilith, I never thought this would happen."

"It's not your fault, how the fuck did they get here? We're meant to be safe here."

Later they all sat in the living room, Lily still held Mae to her chest while Ryan sat behind them. Aaron and Lucy sat on the sofa opposite them, each had suffered broken bones and Lucy still seemed woozy after a massive hit to the head.

"What happened?" Ryan looked at his two friends.

"They came from nowhere, we couldn't do anything. It was Angel's I thought they were banned from purgatory." As Lucy spoke she winced at the pain coursing through her body, Aaron rested his hand gently on her knee and she took his hand in hers.

"They are." Lily looked up at them and they saw something on her face that none of them had ever seen before. Despair. "I don't know how this could of happened."

Aaron's swallowed and looked at the beautiful Demon. "I didn't want to tell you this Lily but you should know." He took a deep breath before looking her right in the eye. "The Angel's weren't alone they had someone with them." His eyes flickered from Lucy, to Ryan before finally coming back to rest on the first woman he had ever loved. "Lily it was your mother." 



Tormented Ch. 14



Abdiel turned over in the large bed and stretched his arm out beside him, his fingers brushed against warm skin and he turned his head. The long chestnut curls were spread across the pillow and his heart leapt.

"Lily?" He pushed himself onto his elbow and tenderly stroked a curl from her face. In sleep the face he saw could have been Lilith, calm, peaceful and beautiful. Disappointment settling in his stomach he sat up and turned away from Tayana, swinging his legs over the edge to rest his feet on the floor he dropped his head into his hands and groaned. A deep ache had settled behind his eyes, an after affect of the trip into Purgatory and nausea hit his stomach.

"Good morning." He shuddered at the sound of her voice and let out a sigh. She scooted closer and pressed her naked body against his, her arms slid round his chest and she kissed his shoulder. "How are you feeling?"

He shrugged her off grimacing at her touch and ran his hands through his dark hair. "Are you still here?"

She laughed and pressed herself back against him. "Still feeling rough don't worry its nothing more than travel sickness. You'll feel fine in an hour or two."

He rolled his shoulder violently throwing her from him and stood, turning back to look at her his eyes flashed with something close to hatred. "Don't fucking touch me."

Her eyes widened and her shoulders slumped slightly. "What? What's the matter?"

He didn't say a word instead began pacing back and forth in front of the bed. "Abi what's wrong?"

He froze where he stood his head pointing towards the floor his fists clenched at his sides and his teeth gritted. When he finally looked back at her she let out a small gasp at the look of fury on his face.

"Don't you call me that. Don't ever fucking call me that." His whole body shook with anger and his blue eyes flashed dangerously.

"Why?" Her voice was stronger and she stood from the bed, stepping close until their chests almost touched she poked his hard muscle. "Because she calls you that? Are you still pining after that stupid girl? She doesn't want you, don't you understand that?" He growled low in his throat and her eyes flashed. She had him. "I'm all you have Abi and what would you do without me? I got you where you are today, without me you never would have found her again, you never would have known where to take her from, you never would have been able to get into Purgatory. You would be nothing without me. You need me," her eyes narrowed and she folded her arms. "You love me."

He finally seemed to snap out of his trance and her face twisted into an expression of scorn. "I love you?" His laugh was nasty and she she took an uncertain step backwards. "You really think that I feel anything for you." He took a step back towards her closing the gap between them. "You mean nothing to me, you are just close enough to Lily that I can stand to be around you. You look just enough like her that I can feel close to my mate without wanting to vomit when I look at you face. You really think that you can compare to her, in any way?" He reached out and took hold of her throat feeling her swallow beneath his fingers. "I love Lilith, not you." His face turned sad and he let go of her. "I love her but she will never feel the same and if you ever think that you could come close to her then you are even stupider than I thought."

Moving slowly she reached out and stroked his tousled black hair, reaching onto her tiptoes she gently brushed a kiss against his lips, roughly he gripped her wrist keeping her still. Her face dropped before turning angry.

"You bastard! You know what I've done for you! I can never go back to my family, I can never go home, I will never see Gabriel again." Her eyes shone with tears as she spoke the name and she dropped her head. "I'll never see him."

He snarled and went to walk from the room. A strong hand on his arm and an anguished shrieked made him turned and he looked back into her tear stained face.

"How can you treat me like this? After everything I've done for you how can you not care? Don't you feel anything for me?"

Without a word he turned her around and pulled her against his chest, leaning down he brought his lips close to her ear. "Nothing." Throwing her onto her stomach on the bed he pulled on her legs until her feet where back on the floor and her body was bent at a ninety degree angle. Moving to stand close behind her he spat on his fingers and roughly pushed two inside her pussy, she cried out in pain and tried to move away from him. He slapped her ass hard and she sobbed burying her face into the sheets.

"Stop please, you're hurting me," he felt himself grow hard at her words. Lily had once said that to him, positioning his cock at her entrance he slammed into her from behind and she screamed at the burning pain hit her, she tried to clamber onto the bed and away from him but his large hands curled around her hips and pulled her closer burying himself inside her to the base. A scream ripped from her throat and she struggled harder, he began thrusting and her nails curled into the bed and her body shook from pain, tears fell from her eyes as he thrust in and out of her pussy groaning at the feel of resistance as she fought against him.

Wrapping his hands around her waist he lifted her and threw her onto her back on the bed, immediately she tried to move away from him fear in her dark eyes but he caught hold of her ankle and pulled her back to him. Covering her body with his own he pushed back into her and her eyes rolled back in her head as the pain hit her again and she hit her fists against his broad chest, scratching, clawing, trying desperately to push him off her.

"Please stop," her voice was broken by the roughness of his hips and hoarse from screaming. "Stop it! It hurts!"

With a growl he covered her mouth with a hand muffling her cries, her teeth sank into the soft skin of his palm. Pressing harder over her mouth he sped up his thrusts and heard her sobbing muffled behind his hand, the walls of her pussy gripped his thick girth tightly and he groaned as his orgasm built.

"Oh fuck." His vision clouded and instead of Tayana he saw Lily beneath him, her face filled with pleasure, his name on her lips. "Lily." He whispered her name as he came and Tayana screamed against his hand as his hot cum filled her intensifying the burning pain inside her.

He rolled off her his chest rising and falling quickly and stared up at the ceiling, beside him she curled into a ball on her side and wiped away a tear. They lay in silence for a minute before he stood and without a word walked from the room. Wrapping her arms around her stomach she willed the seed inside her to stay deep and closing her eyes she muttered a short prayer.

"Lucifer, I know I have done awful things. Unforgivable things but please let me bear a child. Please."

*

"My mum?" Lily's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Aaron. "You're sure it was her?"

"I'm sorry little lady, it was definitely her."

Lily's arms tightened around her sleeping daughter and she turned her head to look up at Ryan. "Why would she do that? What kind of person could do that to her own grandchild? To her child?! How could she hate me that much?"

"She doesn't hate you poppet." Ryan placed his hand on her shoulder calming her through their bond and he felt her muscles relax slightly, she dropped her head down until her forehead rested on Mae's soft skin and swallowed.

"I'm going to go and sort Mae's room." She stood slowly and they watched her walk up the stairs still cradling the tiny child to her chest. They watched her walk from the room in silence until finally Lucy looked at Ryan.

"Do you think she's OK?" Her voice was worried and absent-mindedly she reached out to take Aaron's hand in her own.

Ryan shrugged and pinched the bridge of his nose. "I hope so. I don't even know what she must be feeling at the moment, I can never imagine what this must feel like." He looked up at the ceiling. "She's a strong girl, she'll be fine it will just take some time." Standing he tried a smile at the couple. "I'm going to check on her, I'm so sorry about this."

He walked slowly up the stairs and poked his head around the door of Mae's room, it was empty. Worry crept into his gut once again and he called out to her softly.

"Lily?" There was no answer, moving to their spacious bedroom he looked in and saw their tiny daughter on the bed, Lily had made a makeshift nest in the middle of the bed with blankets to keep her from rolling off and she slept peacefully. Lily was nowhere to be seen.

"Lily?" He called out again and hurried through to the balcony, the heavy wooden double doors were shut but he could feel his bond to his mate row stronger. Pushing them open he sighed in relief, she sat on the wooden railing her legs hanging over the side, a lit cigarette hung from her fingers and he slammed his fist against the door as anger brewed in him.

"What the fuck are you doing?" 

She took a deep drag on her cigarette and closed her eyes, walking towards her he pulled her towards him, she fell from the railing and into his chest. He took hold of her wrist and shook her until the cigarette fell from her fingers and he trod on it angrily.

"Lily what the fuck?! You haven't smoked in years."

"You really think smoking is what I'm worrying about, if anything is going to kill me a cigarette is the last on the list."

"For fuck sake Lily, you're not a kid any more! You can't keep doing things without any regard for anyone else. No smoking won't kill you but what about what happens next, you smoke, then you drink, then drugs, you go out doing god knows what and one day you will get hurt. We have a child Lily what the fuck were you thinking?"

"I'm not fucking thinking! I don't know what I'm doing Raim," she yanked her arm from his grip and stepped back. "You have no idea what this is like. She's my mother and she did this to me and I don't know what to do. I want to hurt her, I want her to feel like I am but she's my mum. I could never do that."

"You need to talk to me, I want to help you but I cant if you don't talk to me about it."

"It's only just happened what do you want me to say."

"You've done this before Lily, you close yourself off, you don't talk to me then you drift away and I don't see you for years! I am not going to watch you leave again I wont."

"You think I would leave you? After everything?" Her face clouded with anger and she pushed him hard in the chest. "When you were gone and I thought I had lost you I could barely bring myself to keep going. It was the worst time of my life and thinking that was how you felt when I left you all those times tore me apart. When the Angel's took me the only thing that kept me going was the tiny bit of me that knew you were coming for me, Abdiel told me that you were dead but deep down I knew you weren't and that you wouldn't give up until you found me. I went against my own mother and probably my father when I bonded with you. I went against every one of my ancestors when I chose you, both Demon and Angel! We have a daughter together! You really think I'm so selfish that I would leave everything we have together? You think I could?" Reaching out she slapped him hard around the face, he didn't even flinch and her anger rose in her throat. "What the fuck is wrong with you, do you really think so little of me? Well fuck you Ryan." She went to slap him again but his large hand came to catch her wrist, his breathing was ragged as his eyes flashed at her and his free hand came to curl around her throat. He pushed her backwards until her back hit the brick wall, he kissed her hard and moved his hand from her wrist to one breast and dug his fingers into the soft flesh making her gasp against his mouth, he lifted her with the hand around her throat and she wrapped her legs around his waist arching her back pushing her body harder against his while her hands curled into his t-shirt. He kissed and nipped at her neck making her shiver before kissing her again. She pushed him back and stared at him in what looked like anger.

"Fuck you Raim." Pulling him back to her she kissed him before pushing him back again. "Fuck you." Her eyes were bright, tears, anger and lust making them sparkle and her whole body trembled. With a smile he pushed harder against her and bit her lower lip gently, running his tongue along the soft skin he kissed her again and rolled his hips she moaned quietly as his hard length pressed against her and her strong fingers ripped his t-shirt away from his muscled body. He laughed quietly but she could hear it was strained as he tried to keep control.

"Impatient poppet?" She growled softly and her soft lips curled, baring her teeth, her canines had elongated into sharp fangs and her eyes flashed becoming shimmering black pools in her face. Her skin paled, becoming silken white and he trailed his fingers down her soft neck watching his Demon transform before his eyes for the first time. The feelings, the emotions between them had been to high during the Kundii for him to truly appreciate the beauty of his mate, her hair hung in a silken wave down her back reaching the backs of her knees the colour pure white like snow. Her lips were a deep red and trembled as she looked at him.

"Fuck you Raim." Her eyes flashed and he laughed, ripping the vest from her body he pulled down the cup of her bra and dropped his head to kiss the soft white flesh. She dug her fingers into his hair and pulled his head closer and he bit gently making her shudder and press harder against him. His cock throbbed and he groaned needing to be inside her, she sensed his need and pulled his head up so they looked into each others eyes. Pushing herself away from his chest she dropped to the floor and pressed her bare chest to his, the golden hair on his chest teased her sensitive nipples drawing a gasp from her throat. Running her fingers down his chest she hooked one into the waistband of his sweatpants before kissing him again, he growled against her mouth and as she watched his hair darkened to black and his eyes shone red in the moonlight. His nails, now lengthened to black claws, dug into his palms as he balled his hands into fists and his snarl showed his sharp fangs.

She stepped away and pushed her own sweatpants down her legs, her panties followed and she stood naked in front of her mate. His red eyes roamed over her body greedily and he stepped forward taking her into his arms again, slowly he lowered her to the floor and she gasped at the feeling of the cold floor against her hot skin he kissed her hard before laying himself on top of her between her legs. Resting his weight on his elbows he slipped his forearms under her shoulders and cradled her head in his large hands, kissing her again softly this time he rested his forehead on hers.

"Marry me."

Her eyes, still eerie black pools, widened and she laughed softly. "What do you mean?"

"Marry me, you know rings, white dress, service in a church."

She laughed again and threaded her fingers through his hair. "A church, it might just be me but I don't think we would be welcome in a church. From what I hear most people go to church to avoid Demons."

"Stop changing the subject." He grinned and rolled his hips against her. "I'm asking you to marry me."

"What do you think my answer is Raim? What answer would I ever give."

"Is that a yes?"

She nodded, her throat was tight and her eyes shone with unshead tears, she turned her head away, embarrassed but he gently turned it back and kissed her again.

"I love you so fucking much Lillith."

"I love you too Raim."

Taking one hand from her head he pushed his sweatpants and boxers down and kicked them away, placing his hand back under her head he pushed into her slowly feeling the walls of her pussy grip his hard length and groaned at the feel of her. His forehead still rested on hers keeping their faces close and her eyes burned into his as her fingers tightened in his hair, her knees came up to hug his hips drawing him deeper. Her white hair was spread across the concrete floor of the balcony and he stroked the silken waves.

"You're so beautiful." She blushed and tried to turn her head again but his hands kept her still, slowly he began to thrust against her his long cock stroking deep inside her. He kept his face close, watching the sensation build in her eyes, feeling his pride swell at the pleasure he could give his mate. He paused for a moment and she moaned pushing her hips against him, urging him to continue.

"Please don't stop."

He laughed, a hoarse bark from his chest and bit her lower lip gently before slamming back into her to the hilt and she cried out loudly her eyes closing and her back arching against the floor. He began thrusting again his muscles tensing at the hot tightness of her pussy, pushing himself onto his knees he held her hips pulling her so her ass rested on his thighs with her back still on the floor. Keeping up his thrusts he growled softly.

"Touch yourself."

Her eyes flashed and with a small smile she trailed one hand down her stomach and with one finger found her clit, she pressed down and her body jerked upwards at the feeling. Her other hand moved to her breast and she took her nipple between her finger and thumb and squeezed gently. The resulting pleasure sent a spasm through the muscles in her pussy making them tighten around his cock and he growled. Reaching down he wrapped his hand around her throat and pulled her up so their chests were together, wrapping one strong arm around her waist he kept her close, not once stopping his thrusts. She slid her arms around his neck holding him tightly, their faces were still less than an inch apart and their closeness added to the building feelings between them. He twisted her hair around his hand and pulled baring her throat to him and sucked the skin, marking it. The new angle of his thrusts allowed him to hit even deeper brushing the sweet spot inside her. She moaned and pushed her hips harder against him as her sharp nails dug into the hard muscles of his back drawing blood. Her orgasm rose in her stomach, she looked desperately into his eyes.

"Cum with me, please."

He growled and thrust harder, her moans grew in volume as she got closer and closer to her release, sliding his hands down her back he cupped her round ass in his large hands and moved her violently against him. Finally the pleasure inside her broke and she cried out throwing her head back as her climax gripped her, his own shout echoed hers and he jetted into her, filling her.

She slumped against his chest her breathing ragged and he stroked her hair as it slowly returned to the warm chestnut curls, kissing her forehead he waited until their breathing slowed before asking softly.

"You have any more cigarettes?"

She laughed and pointed to her sweatpants, he turned her around so she sat between his legs with her back against his chest, then he reached over to fish the packet and lighter from the pocket. Placing two between his lips he lit them before handing one to her, she took a deep drag and finally relaxed against him.

"You always did like a smoke after fucking." 

He laughed and shrugged. "I did," kissing her shoulder he glanced back to the door. "What are we going to do?"

"I don't know, I'm going to have to see her. She has to know she can't ever do anything like this again but I don't know if I can face her. How could she do this to me?"

"I can come with you?"

"I don't know if that will help baby," she turned her head to look into his eyes. "Did you mean what you said?"

"About what?"

"About marrying you."

"Yes," he kissed her again. "Would you like that poppet? We could do it properly, the dress the ceremony. Bachelor party."




Tormented Ch. 14



She laughed. "So that's why, you wanna get drunk and hire strippers?"

"Well if we're going to do it properly I hear that's the custom. We could go on a honeymoon, the three of us, somewhere sunny. Sit on the beach, drink cocktails, you can tan your pale bits." He cupped her pussy with one large hand and she shuddered, he ran his hand up to her stomach and pinched the soft flesh. "Of course you would need to get rid of your flab, you're getting a belly poppet." She let out an indignant shriek and elbowed him, he laughed and moved his hand up to her breast. "Though your tits have got bigger," he squeezed gently and she hissed in a breath. "You could sunbathe naked, would you like that baby? All the people looking at you, at how beautiful you are."

She threw the butt of her cigarette off the balcony. "You want people to look at me?"

"I want people to see how lucky I am." His hand still moved slowly over her breasts, throwing his cigarette as well he slid his free hand over her stomach and brushed over her smooth pussy.

"Mmm," a soft moan reached his ears and he dipped a finger inside her.

"Oh fuck Lily, you're so wet." He moved his finger inside her and his thumb pressed gently on her clitoris, she reached behind her and pushed on his chest until he leant back on his elbows. She straddled his legs and guided his thick length into her tight pussy, he groaned through gritted teeth watching his cock disappear inside her. She rested her hands on his thighs and began to bounce on his cock and his hands curled into fists, she threw her head back her long hair falling over her shoulders and brushing against his stomach.

"Oh fuck Lily," his voice was harsh and she shivered at the sound, her nails curled into the skin of his thighs and she worked her hips faster her moans growing louder and finally her pussy gripped his cock tightly, pulsing as her orgasm ran through her. Her gripped her hips tightly and pressed hard into her groaning as his own orgasm hit him. She stayed where she was for a moment allowing her breathing to calm before standing and pulling her sweatpants, leaving her bra she slipped her vast back on while he stood and stepped back into his own sweatpants. He wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her back against his chest and she leant her head backwards to rest on his shoulder.

"What are we going to do?"

She sighed and bringing her arms behind his back she linked her fingers keeping him close. "I'm going to see her, not now, but I'm going to have to. I just don't know what I'm going to say."

"And you're sure you don't want me to come?"

"She wont talk if you're there, I need to know what she was thinking."

"If you think that's best baby."

"I'll be careful," she turned in his arms and slid her hands round his waist to rest on the small of his back. "We should clean up Mae's room."

"Not yet, I don't want to let you go yet." She heard the fear in his voice and snuggled closer to him, his hands held her desperately as though afraid she would disappear, he buried his face in her neck breathing her scent in.

Time seemed to slow as they stood together, the sounds of the rest of the world faded and they just enjoyed the feeling of each other. They kept Mae in bed with them that night, she nestled between them her tiny body framed by her parents, Lily kept one hand on her daughters warm stomach and Ryan stroked the skin of Lily's waist though the night. He looked at his mate and their child as they slept peacefully, their beautiful faces devoid of any worry and he smiled before he too drifted off to sleep.

*

Lucy woke late the next morning the sun already shining through the window, stretching she reached her hand across the bed feeling for Aaron. His side was empty. Sitting up she frowned, their room was quiet and the door to the en-suite stood open, he was nowhere to be seen. Standing she pulled on her silk nightdress an ran her fingers through her red hair, stepping out of the room she looked around before the sounds of soft voices came from upstairs. She followed the sound and entering Mae's room she smiled. Ryan and Aaron were fixing together a new crib for Mae, they were looking over the instructions confused looks on their faces.

"Having trouble boys?" They turned to look at her.

"Hi Princess," Ryan smiled at her. "Lily's in our room, she might want some company."

She blew a kiss to them and moved to their bedroom, Lily sat in the middle of the bed, she held Mae to one breast while she fed and as Lucy entered she smiled. 

"Hi Luce," she patted the bed beside her and Lucy sat next to her, Mae finished and Lily placed her gently over her shoulder and rubbed her back. "Ugh, she just doesn't want to burp today, could you try?"

"Oh I wouldn't know what I was doing." 

Lily smiled and handed the tiny baby to Lucy. "Then just hold her, you're so good with her," Lucy looked down into the tiny face and smiled, gently she moved her to her shoulder as Lily had done and rubbed the warm skin of her back. A soft burp came from the tiny figure and they laughed.

"See I told you," Lily pulled her top back down and ran her fingers through her long hair brushing it. Lucy held Mae gently rocking her.

"I just want to apologise again for last night." Lucy looked back into Lily's dark eyes.

"It wasn't your fault," the Elf smiled reassuringly. "You couldn't have known." They were quiet for a moment then Lucy spoke again. "What are you going to do?"

"Nothing yet," Lily pulled her long hair over her shoulder and plaited it quickly. "I don't want to go now and do something I'll regret." Her dark eyes flashed and she smiled mischievously. "Do you wanna do something special for the boys?"

"What did you have in mind?"

Lily leant over and whispered into her ear, Lucy laughed and nodded. "You are naughty Lily."

Lily winked and kissed the Elf on the cheek, taking Mae from her she stood. "There's champagne downstairs, bring a few bottles up and some glasses and I'll drop the little madam into daddy," she dropped her face to her daughters and kissed her small nose. "Would you like that? We gonna go see daddy?" Mae giggled her tiny hands balled into fists waving playfully. She walked through to Mae's room, they were both still staring at the instructions and she laughed. Ryan looked up with a sheepish grin.

"What you looking at?"

"Just admiring my boys," Ryan stood and kissed Mae's forehead, he took her from Lily before kissing his mate on the lips, biting her lower lips gently he flicked his tongue out catching the corner of her mouth and she shivered. "Down boy, me and Lucy are having the day together can you watch the little one?"

"Sure baby, what you doing?"

"Girlie things," she winked and left. Aaron laughed softly.

"God I would love to know what they're doing in there."

"Wouldn't we all."

Lily and Lucy sat together on the bed, they each had a large glass of champagne while four more chilled in a large ice bucket beside the bed. A box of nail polishes sat between them and Lily placed her glass on the bedside table and picked out a bright red. Taking Lucy's hand in her own she began painting the nails.

"I haven't done this in so long," Lucy spoke. "Since the war I haven't been that close with anyone."

"What happened? If you don't mind me asking."

"Not at all, as a race Elves are sought after. For our magic, our blood or just as prizes, for years we were hunted as a sport."

"Lucifer that's terrible, who would do that to you?"

"Angels, Vampires, Witches. Our blood is very beneficial to Vampires, one feed from an Elf can sustain them for months, they used to keep us prisoner all our lives just to feed off us." She shrugged sadly. "It's over now though."

"I think its amazing what you did. No one should have to live in fear because of what they are. Did any of your family stay, your friends?"

"My younger brother," her face turned sad. "He was careless though. We have ways of making ourselves blend in with humans so none of our predators can sense us, he wasn't careful enough and they got him. That was years ago now and those who hurt him soon regretted it."

"I'm so sorry."

"Yeah it sucks, but nothing is ever fair. I mean look at you and Ryan, speaking of you and Ryan how are you guys?"

"We're good," Lily picked her glass back up and drained the champagne, filling both back up she smiled. "He asked me to marry him last night."

"What?" Lucy beamed.

"I know, he said he wanted everyone to know that I was his." She looked down at her left hand imagining his ring there. "It seems a bit silly considering we're bonded but I can never say no to him." She looked back at Lucy with a sly glint in her eyes. "Now I haven't heard anything about you and Aaron, tell me all the naughty details."

Lucy giggled and drank some more of her champagne. "He's vigorous."

Lily's eyes widened and she raised an eyebrow. "Vigorous," she filled the two glasses again. "Please explain."

"He's...he's just incredible, I tell you I've never cum so hard before."

"Really? I always knew he would be good."

"Oh you have no idea! He doesn't even need to touch me and it feels like I'm almost there, I don't know how he does it."

"Fuck, you are one lucky girl," they clinked glasses. They spent the next few hours drinking, doing each others nails, talking and laughing. As the sun began to set they moved downstairs to prepare dinner.

Aaron and Ryan sat on the back porch, they had put Mae into her new crib and now drank a cold beer each, they could smell the delicious scents wafting out from the kitchen and their stomachs rumbled.

"You know I never thought this would happen."

Aaron turned to his master with a confused frown on his face. "What's that?"

"This," Ryan gestured out over the rolling hills of Purgatory. "Being here, with Lily, having a child. I never thought she would really stay."

"You're serious?" Aaron sounded shocked.

"I am, I really started to think maybe we would never be together."

"Ry, she was always going to stay with you."

"Dinner," the shout came from inside and they stood, Aaron placed his hand on the Demons shoulder.

"You two will be ok, none of this matters as long as you two stay together. They want you apart and as long as you defy them and are with each other they wont win."

Ryan nodded and they walked through to the dining room, the table was laden with food but Lily and Lucy were nowhere to be seen. Confused they sat down and ate, beers had been left in an ice bucket and they got through five each as they ate, when they were full they sat back in their chairs, two cigars and an ash tray lay on the table and they lit them while Ryan poured two large tumblers of whiskey.

"What was all of this?" Aaron motioned to the empty plates and Ryan laughed knowingly.

"She's done this before, if it's anything like last time we've got a big treat coming after this."

"Oh yeah?"

"Trust me kid you're going to have some fun tonight."

Ryan stood and moved into the hall, Aaron followed and when he saw the door to his and Lucy's room his mouth fell open. She stood in the doorway watching him from under her long eyelashes. She wore a red bra and thong the colour matching her hair, nails and the red lipstick she wore, she beckoned to him turned to walk back into the room. Her firm ass swayed enticingly as she walked and Aaron let out a low breath.

"Holy shit," he followed her in his mouth hanging open and shut the door with his foot, she wore red patent stilettos, the heels at least six inches high stretching her legs out the muscles pulled tight beneath the pale skin. Soft music played and she smiled sultrily as she pointed to the bed.

"Sit down," still holding his drink and cigar he sat on the covers with his back against the pillows, she stood at the end of the bed with a smile curving her red lips, her hips began to sway to the music and his eyes followed their movements transfixed. Trailing her fingers up her body they brushed over the red lace of her bra up her neck and into her soft hair, turning her back she slowly undid the clasp of her bra and let it fall to the floor. The flawless skin of her back glowed in the dim light and he places the cigar and glass on the bed side table, her hips still swayed in their hypnotic rhythm and he moved down the bed until his legs fell over the end, he reached his hand out and touched her smooth thigh but she shook her head.

"Oh no, you don't get to touch me tonight."

"Luce."

She turned and pushed on his chest until he lay down before straddling him rolling her hips against him feeling the hard length of his cock against her. He groaned and grabbed her hips but she took hold of his wrists and placed them back on the bed either side of his head. Her hips still ground against him and she could feel the tremors running through his body, she placed her hands on his chest and ripped his t-shirt from his body. Once again his hands came to grip her hips speeding up their movements the friction against his hard cock through his jeans driving him crazy, she looked down at his face, his eyes burning with need and felt a rush of pride at what she was doing to him. She raised herself off him and he groaned trying to pull her back but she resisted, instead she moved down the bed and she slowly undid the button on his jeans and pulled them down and off with a flourish before kneeling back on the bed and running her hands up his legs to his thighs. Gently she trailed her fingertips over the fabric of his boxers feeling his hard length pressing against the materiel before blowing gently. He groaned again at the feel of her warm breath and reached for her, she ducked out of his grip smiling mischievously.

"Do I have to tie you up Follower? You don't touch me until I tell you."

"Lucy please," his voice was shaking, strained as he battled to keep control and his hands curled into fists on the bed. "Please."

She slowly pulled the waistband of his boxers down allowing his thick cock free and licked from the base to the tip collecting the drop of pre-cum that already rested there. "Oh god, please." She flicked her tongue out again tracing the same path before taking his entire length down her throat and he let out a guttural cry. He could already feel his orgasm building and his hands held the sheets harder ripping through the fabric, she began to move her head slowly up and down, swirling her tongue around the head of his cock before sucking him back into her throat.

"Fuck Lucy," he spoke through gritted teeth and thrust his hips against her mouth as he came forcing his cum down her throat before collapsing back against the bed breathing heavily. She swallowed with a small smile and came back to straddle his waist feeling his still hard cock between her thighs. She snapped the thin materiel at the side of her thong and pulled her underwear away, he felt how wet she was and his eyes closed as she rubbed herself against him, coating his cock in her wet juices. Slowly she lowered herself onto his cock feeling him stretch her and hitting deep inside her. Her eyes closed at the feeling and she bit her lip moaning softly. She began to move, rocking her hips against him and he brought his hands up to clutch her hips, her eyes flew open and she smiled shaking her head. She took his wrists in her hands and placed them on the pillow either side of his head and held them there, leaning her chest down to rest against his she lifted her hips until only the tip of his cock remained in her before lowering herself back down. His hands curled into fists and his eyes closed at the pleasure she was bringing him, her hips sped up as her orgasm built and her moans grew louder. She threw her head back and came on a soft moan and he looked up at her face as it twisted in ecstasy, ripping his hands from her grip he took hold of her hips and held her up before thrusting violently into her. He gritted his teeth to stifle his shout as he came inside her pushing her to another orgasm before they collapsed back on the bed breathing heavily.

Ryan walked up the stairs, stepping quietly into Mae's room he kissed his sleeping daughters forehead. Closing the door he carried on down the hall until he reached his and Lily's room, the door stood ajar and soft light spilled out. Pushing it open he stood in the doorway and simply looked at her. She stood at the foot of the bed wearing a white silk corset that showed off her tiny waist, a white suspender belt and black stockings, she wore no panties meaning her perfectly smooth pussy was bare to his hungry gaze. Her breasts were pushed up in her tight corset and her long hair fell down her back and over her shoulders as she looked at the ground. Her hands were behind her back and she slowly looked up with a sultry glow in her dark eyes.

"Hi baby." His voice was rough and he shut the door before leaning back against it, he took a drag on the cigar and blew the smoke towards her.

She said nothing but brought her hands from behind her back, a length of black silk hung from her fingers and he frowned at it.

"What's that?"

"I was talking to Lucy earlier. I told her that sometimes you like to tie me up," his stomach flipped at her words. "But that it never felt real because you always knew I could get free if I wanted to. I can't break this." She pulled the silk tight. "You could do whatever you wanted to me."

She smiled mischievously and he groaned quietly. He walked towards her slowly and kissed her shoulder, walking round the bed he dropped his glass and cigar on the table beside it. Walking back to her he stood behind her and ran his hand over her bare shoulder, taking the silk from her hands he wrapped it gently around her neck before tying her hands behind her back. Moving to stand in front of her he pulled his t-shirt over his head and threw it aside, her eyes flitted over his muscled torso and she instinctively went to touch him but couldn't move her hands. He lifted her, holding her by the thighs and sat on the edge of the bed. Sliding his hands up her legs he cupped her ass in his large hands and kneaded gently, she moaned pushing her hips forward and he kissed her neck before biting the skin making her hiss in a breath.

"I can do whatever I want to you?"

"Yes." Her voice was a breathless whisper and he curled his fingers into the soft flesh of her ass.

"Say it, tell me."

She took a shuddering breath. "You can do whatever you want to me Raim."

He smiled at her use of his true name and tangling one hand in her hair pulled so her back arched pressing her breasts against his bare chest.

"I fucking love your tits," he kissed the soft top of one. "So perfect." He kissed the other, sucking at the skin marking it. "I swear to Lucifer I could just eat you up." His warm breath tickled her skin making her shiver and she felt a deep heat low in her stomach, he stood taking her with him and placed her on the floor facing the bed. Pushing on her back he bent her at the waist until her chest was flat against the bed and her ass was thrust towards him. He took hold of the two lengths of silk that come from the knot at her wrists and wrapped them round the bed posts to keep her still, then wrapping one each around an ankle pulled them apart, spreading her legs, before tying the silk to the posts at her legs.

Stepping back he looked at his handiwork, she was spread completely to his gaze her pink pussy peeking from between her legs. The heels stretched her legs and he reached out to run his hand over the back of her thigh before slapping her ass hard.

A small noise of pain escaped her lips and he slapped her again. She bit her lip and waited, holding her breath, for what he would do next. He stood watching her before kneeling and kissing her thigh, she moaned as his lips trailed upwards to the cheek of her ass. He kissed his hand print and flicked his tongue out to lick the skin and she dropped her head forward onto the sheets.




Tormented Ch. 14



"You can't move?"

She shook her head at his question pulling against her bonds with all her strength to show him.

"Good," placing his head between her legs he held out his tongue collecting the sweet juices flowing from her pussy and groaned at the delicious taste of her. He licked her, lapping softly at the wet skin of her pussy and he felt her wriggle against his tongue trying to get him to go further. Holding onto her legs he kept her still and kept up his slow ministrations, his tongue flicking against her sensitive clit before dipping inside tasting her. He felt her begin to shake against him, she was close, circling the small nub of flesh he listened to her moans grow louder and finally a husky cry came from her throat and she pushed her hips backwards thrusting against his face.

Without leaving her a moment to collect herself he slid one finger into her tight pussy feeling the muscles flutter around his finger and bit her ass. Working his finger inside her he trailed his tongue down before slipping to gently touch her asshole, she jumped and tried to move away from him and he slapped her ass hard making her scream.

"Don't you fucking move." She whimpered but stayed where she was, his tongue flicked over her asshole again and she felt heat rising in her cheeks making her blush with embarrassment even as she moaned in pleasure. It felt so good. His finger still moved inside her while his tongue worked around her hole and her stomach clenched as he hit the spot inside her making her toes curl and she gritted her teeth trying to keep her moans quiet.

"Don't hide them from me Lilith, I want to hear them all." He pressed his tongue against her hole again and her husky cry sent a jolt of hot lust through him, he pressed harder circling the sensitive skin with his tongue.

Her whole body shook and he pushed a second finger inside her hitting against the bundle of nerves and she cried out again.

"Ryan," her voice sounded different to his ear and he felt her move trying to free her hands. "Oh fuck please don't stop."

Twisting his fingers upwards he put pressure on the sweet spot inside her and pressed his tongue against her asshole and she dropped her head to the bed as her pussy clamped down on his fingers and her hands balled into fists her nails digging into her palms hard enough to draw blood. Again he gave her no time to catch her breath before he began to move his fingers again and brought one finger of his free hand to her lips. She suckled it obediently and he trailed it down her back, over her ass and pressed it against her hole. She froze when she felt it and he kept still for a moment waiting to see what she would do.

Her breathing was ragged and after a minute she bit her lip and pushed her hips back against his hand. He smiled, the left side of his mouth curving upwards mischievously creating a dimple in his stubbled cheek, and pushed his finger slowly into her asshole and she gasped.

"Oh fuck." He began to move his fingers inside her, pulling out of her ass as he pushed into her pussy then switching pushing deep inside her ass and leaving only the tips of his fingers in her tight pussy. "Oooh," she bit her lip again, throwing her head back sending her long hair cascading down her back. He sped up the movements of his fingers and once again she began to tremble and her eyes closed at the build up of pleasure coursing through her body, curling his fingers upwards again he brushed against the spot inside her and yet another husky cry escaped her throat.

"Raim," his name was a desperate call and he saw the red blood leaking from her hands as her nails ripped through her palm, he pushed his fingers deeper speeding up and pushed against the nerves as her trembling grew more violent.

"You going to cum Lilith?" His voice was deep, rumbling from his chest and he felt her pussy tighten at the sound of it. "With my finger in your ass? Does it feel good baby?"

Her cheeks burned in embarrassment and he moved faster still. "Tell me, tell me how good it feels to have my finger in your ass."

"It feels so good, please don't stop."

"Do you want to cum? You're so fucking tight baby I could cum just feeling you. Do you want to cum with my finger deep in your ass?"

"Yes," her answer was almost a sob. "Please can I cum?"

He held his fingers deep inside her and pressed hard upwards putting exquisite pleasure against the spot that drove her wild and she came hard around his fingers a tear rolling down her cheek and she bit her lip drawing a drop of blood from the soft flesh. It ran down over her chin before making its way down her throat and between her breasts, he removed his fingers and she instantly missed the feeling of being filled. Leaning down over her so his chest resting against her back he kissed her neck sending another shiver through her, straightening back up he quickly stripped out of his jeans and boxers and ran his hand over his hard cock just staring at her. He could see how wet she was, the sweet juices glistening between her thighs in the dim light and the soft pink rosebud of her ass, bending he spat on her asshole and she moaned quietly, he caught the spit on his tongue and circled her hole and she laughed softly.

"Oh fuck Raim." He grinned at her reaction to him and stood up teasing the entrance of her pussy with the head of his cock, slowly he pushed the first couple of inches into her tight heat and groaned as the walls of her pussy fluttered around his girth. He withdrew before pressing back in, still only using the first couple of inches and took hold of her hips in his large hands his skin rough against hers which was silky.

"Raim please," her voice was a soft growl of frustration and he watched as she struggled against the silk holding her still, he felt a rush of power at how helpless she was and continued his slow teasing of her pussy.

"Please what?"

"You know what, please don't make me wait any more." Her lower lip trembled and she tried to push back against him to draw more of him inside her but could not move.

"Tell me," he stopped still with just the head of his cock inside her and felt her shake as tremors gripped her whole body. "Tell me what you need."

She dropped her head forward so her hair covered her burning cheeks. "Fuck me, I need you to fuck me. I need to feel your cock deep in my pussy. Please Raim."

He growled at her and with one thrust embedded his cock deep inside her, her cry was a mixture of pleasure and pain as he hit hard against her cervix and she bit her lip.

"Thank you," her voice was less than a whisper and he began to pound into her hitting so deep inside her that it was painful but the pleasure was all consuming, with one hand he took hold of the silk that ran down her back from her neck to her hands and pulled it tight. It pressed against her throat cutting off the air and she gasped trying to draw breath, her mouth opened and he heard her pant as she struggled to breath and her pussy grew tighter around his cock.

"Is this what you want baby? You want me to be rough, you want to lose all control?" The hand that still rested on her hip curled into the skin as he continued to slam his hips against her ass thrusting deep inside her. She still panted for breath and he smiled feeling a heat rise in his chest that he hadn't felt before. "Do you feel helpless baby? I could have you anyway I wanted and you could do nothing to stop me."

A strangled cry escaped her lips and she came hard, spilling her juices over his cock and he released his hold on the silk hearing her suck in a deep breath. He didn't stop his thrusts and within seconds he felt her tighten again and a soft sob came from her throat as another orgasm ripped through her.

Pulling out he untied her legs and lifted her into his arms, sliding to sit on the floor with his back against the bed he arranged her so she straddled his lap facing him and guided her back down his hard length. She moaned her dark eyes flashing as they met his and he brought two finger of his right hand to her lips. She sucked gently, wetting them and he gently pressed them against her ass, he held them still and waited for her to begin moving slowly sinking down onto his fingers as she fucked herself on his cock. His fingers spread her and she hissed in a breath, finally his fingers were deep in her ass and she growled rotating her lips in a circle with him deep inside her. With her ass filled her pussy was even tighter and his gritted his teeth as the tight walls milked his cock and with his free hand took hold of the silk again pulling it tight and he saw her eyes widen.

"Don't stop." His voice was a low growl, she felt the rumble in his broad chest against her. Slowly she began to move up and down, he still kept the silk tight only allowing her to take shallow breaths and she felt her orgasm building once more in her stomach.

"Do you want to cum?" He asked and she nodded unable to speak. "Tell me, tell me how good it feels."

"You feel so good inside me, please can I cum?"

Her pleading voice sent another jolt of lust through him and he clenched the hand holding the silk into a fist keeping his own orgasm at bay wanting to see her lose herself. "Cum baby, let me feel you."

Her eyes flashed and she worked herself faster her pussy and ass clamping down on him and she threw her head back, he felt the ends of her hair brushing against his thighs pushed his hips up against her.

Finally she slumped against his chest her breathing laboured and her whole body trembling, he didn't remove his fingers from her ass and pulled on the silk until she sat up and looked at him. Her chest rose and fell quickly as she tried to catch her breath and he pulled the silk again cutting off her air.

"Again." 

She shook her head at his command and he pulled tighter. "Please I can't."

He twisted his fingers in her ass and she moaned quietly. "Again."

Almost without her thinking she began to move, thrusting her hips against him, making his cock hit deep inside her. Her eyes were closed and her face was flushed with ecstasy, he stared at his mate taking in her flushed cheeks, wild hair, plump lips, the trail of blood that had run from her lip down between her breasts. She was perfect.

She bounced up and down feeling once again the muscles of her abdomen tighten as her orgasm built but she shook her head. 

"I can't."

He pulled harder on the silk cutting off her air completely and began to thrust up against her, meeting her as she came back down to embed his cock deep inside her.

"I want to feel you again," his voice cracked as he spoke and her eyes came back to meet his, she saw something in their depths that made her feel scared, sexy, powerful and vulnerable all at the same time. 

They thrust against each other as together they moved towards their orgasm and finally she was tipped over the edge cumming on a husky shout and the tightening of her pussy brought his own climax and he shouted as he jet into her. The feel of his hot cum inside her pushed her orgasm further and her muscles tensed in spasm as his hips jerked against her before they finally collapsed. He slumped back against the bed and she fell onto his chest. He took his fingers from her ass and untied the silk and rubbed his large hands over her arms and wrists just feeling her soft skin under his touch. Gently he undid the corset, peeling it away from her skin, slipping her shoes off and disposing of her suspenders and belt he picked her into his arms and sat her on the bed. She still trembled and he took one of his t-shirts from the chest of drawers and a pair of pyjama bottoms, he pulled the bottoms on and then dressing her as though she were a child threaded her arms into the t-shirt before pulling it over her head.

Holding her to his chest again he sat against the pillows and settled her on his lap, pulling the covers up he wrapped his arms around her waist and held her tightly.

"That was fucking incredible," his breathing was still ragged and he looked down at the top of her head. "Are you OK?" She didn't answer and he tilted her head up worriedly with one finger under her chin. "Lily? I didn't hurt you did I?"

Her eyes focused as though she came out of a trance and she shook her head a smile curving her lips.

He laughed nervously. "Have I really rendered you speechless?"

Her soft laugh echoed his own and she reached up to kiss his lips. "You've never fucked me like that before." Her voice was breathless and she ran her fingers through his hair. "I didn't even know I could cum that hard."

"So I didn't hurt you?"

She shook her head. "No baby and if you're up to it I want you to fuck me like that every night."

"I'm sure I could find the energy." He kissed her, a quick brush of his lips against hers and she moaned reaching up seeking more. He kissed her again this time trailing his tongue across her bottom lip before catching it between his teeth softly.

He slid down and rested his head on the pillows turning slightly to face her. She curled on her side, her head resting on his muscled arm and her legs entangled in his, he kissed her again tasting her on his tongue as it slipped into her mouth and resting his hand on her waist curling his fingers into the t-shirt making it bunch up and revealing her legs and hip.

"I could eat you up." 

She shuddered at his words, pulling herself closer she pressed her body against his and kissed him again. They stayed that way all night dozing on and off and just enjoying being close to one another.

*

The next morning they woke late and went to check on Mae, downstairs he sat in the arm chair with her sat on his lap with her legs hanging over the arm. She held Mae to her breast as their daughter fed and her head rested on his shoulder, his muscled arm kept her close and his hand played with her soft curls. His other hand rested on her outer hip with his thumb stroking Mae's leg through her pink sleeper suit.

Mae finished feeding and Lily held her over her shoulder to burp her then lay her back on the soft slope of her legs. Ryan looked at his little family and stroked the soft blonde hair on Mae's head.

"She has your eyes." He spoke looking back to Lily.

Lily nodded. "Your hair."

"She's perfect." She heard the pride in her mates voice and her heart swelled with happiness, Mae's tiny hands were balled into fists and she giggled as her father gently tapped her nose before reaching for his hand. "We should have another one."

Her eyes widened and she turned to look at him. "Beg pardon."

He laughed and kissed her. "Don't look so surprised its not unheard of to want more than one child. Maybe Mae wants a brother," he looked back to his daughter. "What do you think petal? A little brother for you to play with?"

Mae giggled and her little legs kicked happily, Lily looked at the love in her mates eyes and couldn't help the smile spreading across her face.

"Marry me first." He turned to her with a surprised smirk, raising an eyebrow he looked almost disbelieving, she didn't take her eyes off him and her face was serious. "I mean it, marry me."

He reached into the pocket of his pyjama bottoms and brought out a small blue silk box. Her eyes widened and she let out a soft breath.

"I was going to wait, do it somewhere romantic. Where we had our first date maybe. Or somewhere we've never been before, somewhere sunny but this is where I want to be." He looked from his daughter to his mate. "This is the happiest I've ever been." He opened the box and she gasped at the beautiful ring inside, the band was white gold and an opal was set into it. It shimmered in the sunlight coming in through the windows showing shards of pink, blue, green, turquoise and purple showing under the white surface. She reached out but drew her hand back as though afraid to touch it.

"It's beautiful." Her voice was breathless as though she could not believe what was happening, he hadn't taken his eyes off her.

"Well what do you think?"

She opened her mouth to answer but no words came out, instead she nodded her head and he slipped the ring onto her left hand, she gazed down at it for a moment before looking back to him with tears in her eyes. She slid her hands into his hair and pulled his face close, kissing him she smiled against his lips before resting her forehead against his.

"It's so beautiful, I love it."

He wrapped his arm around her waist while his other hand kept Mae where she was laying on Lily's legs, he kissed her again feeling her joy through their bond, it filled his chest and he smiled.

"Can I have a hen party?" He laughed and nodded. "Can I wear a white dress?"

"Anything you want baby."

"Can we do it in a church?"

"If that's where you want to do it poppet."

She giggled softly. "Think how pissed that will make them."

He stroked her hair. "I think they're already pretty pissed at us."

She looked down at her ring again. Footsteps came from Lucy and Aaron's room and they turned to look as his Follower came into the living room, he had a guilty smile on his face and winked at the Demons.

"Good morning, I hope we didn't keep you awake last night."

Ryan laughed and shook his head. "We didn't hear a peep," kissing Lily's shoulder he nudged his knee. "Come outside a minute."

She nodded and looked to Aaron. "Can you take her for a minute." She gathered Mae into her arms and stood, Aaron looked nervous and held his hands in front of him.

"I don't know, I'm not great with babies."

Lily frowned. "Don't be silly you're great with her, she adores you." She watched as Aaron took the baby in his muscled arms, her tiny form looking delicate against him. Her tiny hand grabbed onto his finger and she stared at him with her dark eyes the flecks of green shining as she studied him. Finally she giggled held his finger tighter and he smiled leaning down to kiss her forehead.

They left him sitting on the sofa holding their daughter and walked outside to the back porch. He took a packet of cigarettes from his pocket and lit two before handing one to her, she leant against the railing and he watched as his t-shirt rode up her legs stopping just before the curve of her ass and he groaned. She looked out over the hills of purgatory feeling his eyes on her but not turning to him, taking a drag on her cigarette she blew the smoke in a perfect ring. She threw the butt over the wooden railing and stretched, the t-shirt rode up showing her rounded ass before she leant her elbows back on the wood and tilted her head to the side hearing it click.

Moving quickly he came to stand behind her and dropped his cigarette over the railing, pressing himself against her he ran his hands up her thighs. She felt his hard cock pressed against her ass and pushed back driving him deeper into her softness. He slipped one hand round the front of her leg, then between her thighs feeling her wet heat.

"People will think we're silly you know." She spoke her voice soft as his fingers played with her.

"Why's that?" He pulled the t-shirt from her ass and freed his cock from the pyjama bottoms, pressing the head against her opening he teased her.

"With the rings, the marriage."

He smiled and slowly pushed his hard cock deep into her tight heat, she gasped and pushed harder against him until he was as deep as he could get her pussy pressing tight around his girth. "They can think what they like." He slowly began thrusting as he spoke hearing her breathing stutter.

"I'm sure people will talk." Her hands curled into the wood under her fingers as he moved slowly inside her. "I mean I'm already your mate."

"Yes." He gave no other answer instead listening to her soft moans of pleasure.

"We've already bonded, have a child. Sure this isn't needed." She was having trouble forming words as her breathing sped up and her head fell backwards onto his chest.




Tormented Ch. 14



"Maybe it's not but aren't you looking forward to being Mrs Lily Forsteer?"

She laughed and pushed back harder against him being a deep growl from his chest and his hands held her waist tighter. "It's all I've ever wanted to be."

Pulling out he took hold of her hand and pulled her to the side of the house, pressing her against the bricks he slammed back into her lifting her into his arms and she wrapped her legs around his waist. Her hands tangled in his hair and she arched her back pressing her breasts against his chest through the t-shirt.

"You feel so good baby." His voice was gruff and he held her waist tightly her wet pussy gripping his cock as he thrust in and out. He was different this morning, slower seeming to relish every second of being inside her. He kissed her gently their panting breaths beating against each other as they got closer to the finish.

"Cum inside me, I want to feel you." Her voice was pleading and he growled, his fingers tightened their hold on her and she balled her hands into fists in his hair. He crushed his lips against hers again and thrust hard one last time emptying himself inside her, the heat of his cum inside her triggered her own orgasm and she moaned against his mouth her body racked with shivers of pleasure.

Placing her back on her feet he tidied their clothes before leaning down and kissing her again, threading his fingers through her hair he licked across her bottom lip before slipping it between and stroking her own. Her hands rested on his muscled stomach and she reached on tiptoe bringing them closer.

"How did I get so fucking lucky?" His voice held laughter as though he couldn't believe that he had her.

She smiled. "I wish I knew."

Together they walked back into the kitchen and she peeked through at Aaron, he sat on the sofa with Mae curled against his broad chest. She still held onto one of his fingers and Lily beckoned Ryan to look.

Ryan stroked her back smiling at his Follower. "He is good with her."

Lily nodded. "You go keep him company, I'll make breakfast."

He kissed her hair and walked into the lounge, sprawling out on his chair he watched Aaron with a smile. The two men began to speak and Lily walked back to the kitchen. Quickly she whisked up a pancake batter and had just started the bacon and sausages when Lucy joined her, Lily watched her with a raised eyebrow and a cheeky smile.

"Good morning beautiful."

Lucy grinned and kissed the Demons cheek. "Good morning," she pulled herself up to sit on the counter watching Lily as she cooked. "How was your evening?"

"Ryan seemed to enjoy himself." Lily's cheeks flushed pink with pride. "I assume Aaron approved?"

"Aaron did," Lucy's blue eyes fell on the ring on Lily's finger. "What's that?" She took hold of her hand and pulled the Demon towards her, inspecting the ring closely she let out a happy shriek. "He did it!"

Lily frowned. "You knew?"

"He's had that ring for years! I was there when he got it I helped him pick it out!" She stroked her thumb over the opal with a smile. "I never thought I would be around to see you wear it though. It really is beautiful."

"I know."

"You know its Elf made?"

"It is? I've never seen Elf work before but I've read of it. Its beautiful."

Lucy smiled again. "So when's the wedding?"

Lily laughed and together they made breakfast and talked of weddings, dresses and honeymoons. The four of them ate together, Lily held Mae on her lap as she spoke and when they were done she took her daughter upstairs and lay her in her crib. In the bathroom she stripped naked and stepped into the shower, washing her long hair she closed her eyes but jumped when large hands slid round her stomach. Ryan kissed her shoulder and pressed his hard cock against her wet ass thrusting gently it slid between her ass cheeks and she pushed backwards. He positioned himself at her entrance and slid inside hearing her soft moan as he filled her and she laughed.

"Again?"

He said nothing gritting his teeth and taking hold of her hips moving her so his cock slid in and out of her tight pussy, her hands braced against the tiled wall and he wrapped her hair around his hand pulling her head back to rest on his shoulder as he continued to fuck her. His breathing was laboured and he took her earlobe between his teeth, moving his other hand from her hip he found her clit and brushed across it with one finger. She moaned and moved herself faster on his cock. He felt his orgasm building and took over thrusting hard into her until she came throwing her head back and pressing against him keeping his cock deep inside her. His cum filled her and he dropped his head onto her shoulder breathing heavily.

She turned and took the sponge in her hands, covering it with soap she ran it over his broad chest and shoulders gazing at his skin. His whole body was marred by faint scars that he had never told her how he had got, running her fingers over one at his collarbone she looked into his eyes which were stormy.

"You're going to see him aren't you?" His voice was a low rumble in his chest and she felt it vibrate against her fingers.

"I have to know where she is, why she did it." She held her hand over his heart feeling the slow beating. "He'll know where she is."

"I don't want you to go."

"I'll be fine, I'll be back before you know it."

He kissed her forehead holding her tightly. "Just be careful."

Back in their bedroom he sat on the edge of the bed a towel wrapped around his waist as she pulled jeans and a dark green vest from the drawers. She turned feeling his eyes on her and tilted her head to the side.

"What's wrong?"

He shook his head. "Nothing."

She walked to him, standing between his legs she tilted his chin up and pushed her fingers through his hair. "You can't lie to me Raim. I told you, I'll be fine."

He took hold of her thighs and lifted her so they feel either side of his and pushed her towel away from her, he kissed her shoulder and ran his hands over her soft skin. She laughed softly and tried to push him away but he held her tightly and she struggled.

"Ryan come on stop." She pushed harder but he kept his tight grip on her. "Ryan stop it, let me go."

"Don't go," his green eyes flashed angrily at her and she stilled, pushing against his chest she looked seriously into his face.

"Ryan I have to," she pushed against his chest again but couldn't break his grip on her. "Ryan get off."

"I'm not going to let you go." His muscles bulged in his arms as he kept her still and she struggled but he was too strong.

"I wasn't asking your permission." She struggled again before punching his stomach. "God dammit let me go you wanker!"

"I'm stronger than you poppet." 

"Fuck you," she struggled harder trying to get away from him and he tossed her to the bed and lay between her legs, holding her hands either side of her head he looked into her dark eyes as she breathed heavily. Their faces were inches apart and she could feel his hard length pressing against her, she still looked angry but could see his eyes softening as he looked at her. "You always fucking do this."

She slipped her foot under the his towel at his back and pushed it down his ass until it fell onto the floor, his cock pressed against her pussy and he felt how wet she was. Rolling his hips against her he listened to her sigh as pleasure shot through her abdomen.

"Soon this wont work you know?"

He smiled and pushed into her tight heat, her pussy gripped his cock tightly and she gave herself over to him, she tried to free her hands from his grip but he was too strong, he nipped her bottom lip pressing deeper into her and she moaned. Her feet pushed against his ass keeping him deep inside her and she arched her back, his thrust slowly feeling her tight pussy massage his thick length. His breath beat against her neck in pants and he thrust hard into her, his hands dug into the skin of her wrists as though afraid she was going to disappear. His movements were slow, slamming into her to the hilt before pulling out leaving just the tip of his cock inside her. The frustration grew in her as her orgasm built and she pushed her hips against him.

"Ryan please."

"Please what?" He kissed her neck, amusement in his voice.

"For fuck sake Ryan you know what I want."

He laughed and pushed his chest away from hers, she looked down their bodies seeing his thick cock embedded inside her before he pulled out and slammed back into her. He pounded into her, her cries becoming louder each time he bottomed out inside her and she pushed on his ass feeling the muscles work beneath his skin. She cried out as she came and he covered her mouth with his own swallowing her moans, tasting her.

"I'm gonna cum," his voice came through gritted teeth and he let go of her wrists to ball his hand in her hair and pulled her from the bed to kneel on the floor in front of him, she took his cock in her mouth and he thrust hard, he slid down her throat easily but still gripping it creating friction that made him thrust harder until he came spilling his cum down her throat. She swallowed and looked up at him through her eyelashes, a half smile curved her lips. He dropped to his knees in front of her and she stroked his cheek.

"I'll be fine."

"Just promise you'll come back." He didn't meet her eyes and spoke to the floor.

She tilted his head up. "Where else would I go."

He stood and watched as she dressed quickly and, kissing him, she left. He watched as she sprinted across the hills until she was out of sight. Pulling on his jeans and a dark blue t-shirt he sat on the bed and waited for her to return.

An hour passed, then two. Finally he heard the bedroom door opened and she took a couple of steps into the doorway. Her face was serious and she held Mae in her arms, he stood and frowned at her.

"I didn't feel you come back." He couldn't feel her at the back of his mind as he always could when they were both in Purgatory, he reached out to her but she stepped out of his reach shaking her head.

"Don't."

"Lily? What's happened poppet."

"Ryan I'm so sorry."

He felt a cold dread in his stomach. "What's happened?" He asked again, she shook her head and he saw tears forming in her eyes as she held Mae tightly to her chest.

"I'm sorry I can't," she took a deep breath. "I can't do this any more. I thought it would get better but it didn't."

"What are you talking about?" He looked to her left hand. "Where's your ring?"

"Ryan please listen," he looked back to her tear filled eyes and felt the dread grip his heart tighter. "I can't lie to myself any more. I though maybe after we bonded I might feel something for you but I can't." She took a shuddering breath. "I don't love you Ryan. I never did."

He sank to the bed, he felt freezing cold and his head spun. She took a step towards him. "I'm so sorry Ryan but I never knew how to tell you. You were always so sure, you always told me I was your mate and I wanted to believe you. I really thought that if we bonded I would feel it but I can't lie to you any more. I," she took another deep breath. "I renounce our bond."

He felt an agonising pain in his chest. "No, Lily please don't do this. Abdiel has done something to you, this isn't you talking."

"No please listen to me, I've felt this way for a long time I just never knew how to tell you. I've known that wasn't you and I think I've always known it was Abdiel." She held Mae tighter and a tear spilled down her cheek. "I'm going and I'm taking Mae. She should grow up with two parents, it will be better for her if she doesn't know who you are."

He was silent trying to take in everything she was saying. He felt numb. She reached out and stroked his cheek tenderly before bending to kiss his lips.

"I can't say sorry enough but this is for the best. You'll see that soon. Don't come after me it will only make it worse. Just know that I never wanted this to happen."

And with that she turned and left, he stayed looking at the floor his chest felt as though someone had ripped it open. An hour passed before he heard a tentative knock at the door.

"Master? I feel it too." Aaron stepped into the room. "What happened?" Lucy stood behind him a worried look on her face.

"It's Lily, she's gone."

"What?" Lucy came to sit beside him, she touched his arm gently and bent to look into his face. "What do you mean gone?"

"She's gone, she said that she doesn't love me and never did. She said Abdiel is her true mate and she's gone to him. She's taken Mae and gone to him."

"Well you have to go get her back." Ryan turned to Lucy, his expression was terrifying his green eyes was blazing and his teeth had elongated into sharp fangs.

"You think that will fucking help?! She's gone, she took our daughter and went to him." He seemed to deflate as what he said sank in. "She renounced our bond. I'm nothing to her any more."

Lucy took a deep breath. "Maybe you wont get her back but you can get Mae back. If she renounces you then she renounces everything she had with you. She's your daughter, she can't just take her from you."

Ryan looked at her and she saw tears in his eyes. "She can't, you're right she can't take Mae I will not have an Angel raising my daughter." He stood. "I'm going to bring her back."

"We'll come with you." Aaron spoke immediately.

"No, you two stay here. I don't know what might be there and I wont have you two hurt because of this, because of Lily." They saw the anger soften, replaced with sadness, as he spoke her name. "I'll bring her back."

He sprinted passed them, they barely saw him move and the breeze he left lifted their hair, she took Aaron's hand and looked after Ryan worriedly.

"Will he be OK?"

Aaron shrugged. "I don't know, to have the bond renounced," he paused and shook his head. "I don't even know how to describe it, there's nothing that compares to it."

The moved to sit in the living, neither said a word as they waited. Barely any time passed before they heard the door opening, both jumped to their feet expectant expressions on their faces.

"Hi, what are you guys doing?" Lily looked from one to the other with a small smile on her face.

Lucy walked to her and in a movement so quick even the Demon couldn't see it coming raised her hand and slapped her round the face.

"What the fuck?" Lily's left hand came up to clutch her burning cheek. "What the fuck was that for you crazy bitch?" Lily looked to Aaron. "Has Abdiel been at her again?"

"How dare you come back here after what you did." Lucy's voice was low, almost a growl and she physically shook with anger.

"What did I do?" She looked from one to the other confusion marring her perfect features. "What the fuck is wrong with both of you? Where's Ryan? Where's Mae?"

"You know full well where they are, how could you do that to him you selfish cunt?" Lucy slapped her again and Lily took a step back with the force of the blow.

"OW! Will you fucking stop that!" The Demons eyes grew darker as her anger grew stronger. "What the fuck is going on here? Where is Ryan?"

"He went after you! He went to get Mae back."

"Back?" Lily suddenly turned pale. "Back from where? Where is she?"

"Stop acting innocent, we know what you did. How could you do that to him? After everything!" Lucy raised her hand again but Aaron reached out grabbing her wrist stopping her. "What are you doing?"

Aaron said nothing but moved to Lily and gently took her face in his hands. "I can feel you."

"Of course you can, I thought Ryan told you. You feel the bond too."

Aaron turned back to look at Lucy. "I can feel her."

"So what?" Lucy spat still glaring at Lily.

"If she had really renounced the bond I wouldn't be able to feel her, just like I couldn't feel her when she came to Ryan before. But I feel her now." He studied the Demons face carefully. "Where have you been?"

"I went to speak to Abdiel, I wanted to know if he knew where my mother was but he said he didn't. I've been looking for her, all the old places where I grew up, everywhere I could think of but I couldn't find her so I came back."

"How long have you been gone?"

"A few hours maybe. Why?"

"So you haven't been back here since this morning?"

"No," she held her cheek again. "Will you please tell me what is going on here?"

Aaron looked to her hand. "You're wearing the ring?"

She looked at the ring Ryan had given her still resting on her finger. "Of course I am."

"Then you didn't renounce the bond?"

She paled at Aaron's words and her knees buckled, she tumbled but caught herself before she fell and looked at them with tears in her eyes. "How could you think that? Do you know what that would do to him? Renouncing the bond is saying that you feel nothing for your mate, it tears you apart. How could you think I would do that to him?"

"He told us," Lucy spoke taking a step forward, she still looked angry but it wasn't directed at Lily any more. "He told us you came back and took Mae. You said you were going to Abdiel, that he was your true mate and you didn't love him and never did." She looked to Aaron. "You feel her?"

"Yeah," Aaron still looked at Lily as though making sure she was real. "I feel her, you can't fake that."

"Then she didn't renounce the bond?"

"Once someone has renounced their bond there is no bringing it back but only your true mate can renounce." Lily spoke to the Elf. "If someone came here pretending to be me then he would not have felt the bond, he would believe that I had renounced it."

"How could someone trick him into believing they were you?" Lucy seemed confused. "That must be impossible."

Lily shook her head. "Nearly impossible, there would be one person who could do it."

"Who?"

"It has to be a blood relative. It is something Demons can do that even the Angels don't know about. Our parents can take our shape, even fake the bond to an extent, it was for parents to help their children hide from the Angels when they found their mates."

"Your mother?" Lucy sounded sickened. "Would she really do that?"

"It can't have been anyone but her, I just can't believe she would do something like that. Ryan might have felt the loss of our 'bond' when she told him but it means nothing. It might have worked just enough for him to believe it though." She looked from the Elf to the Follower, blue eyes to amber. "Where is he?"

"He's gone to limbo, after Abdiel." Aaron spoke. "He thinks that where you are."

"We have to go after him," Lily turned and sprinted out of the door.

"You believe her?" Lucy asked Aaron.

"Of course I do."

"Good." Then they took off after her.

*

Ryan skulked round the high walls surrounding the castle where the Head of the Holy Guard resided, the tearing pain in his chest flared with each breath and he clutched his chest trying in vain to feel any trace of Lily and their bond. There was nothing.

Leaping up, he climbed the stone wall before looking down at the courtyard below. There was no one to be seen. Jumping from the wall he hurried through the courtyard until the heavy wooden doors that lead inside were in view. Two of Abdiel's Followers stood either side of the doors and he appeared in front of them.

"Good afternoon." His voice was calm and there was an eerie smile on his face and before the Followers could do anything he leapt on them snapping ones neck before biting into the others throat. His teeth sank through the skin and he jerked his head away, spitting the skin from his mouth he watched as the Follower clutched at the whole in his neck trying to gasp for breath before he fell to the floor. He turned from the two dead Followers and pulling the doors open stepped inside, he listened carefully and the sound of voices reached his ears. He followed the sound until he came to another heavy wooden door and listened, pressing his ear against it he tried to make out the words but couldn't hear. He listened for her voice but only hear the low hum of male voices, kicking the doors they slammed open and they turned to look at him.




Tormented Ch. 14



The room was stone as the rest of the castle, the ceiling was high and the room was light by candles that stood in large black metal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. At the far end of the room there was a raised platform made of the same stone as the rest of the castle floors and there was a large throne in which Abdiel sat. His Followers that crowded the room started towards Ryan, he watched them as he came at him and at the last conceivable second leapt at the closest, bringing his arm back he rammed it forward into the man's chest and when he removed it he clutched the still beating heart of the Follower.

"Leave us." Abdiel's voice rang out across the room and the Followers paused before skirting round Ryan and out of the doors that closed behind them leaving the Angel and the Demon alone. "Raim I wasn't expecting to see you."

"Don't give me that shit, where is she?"

"Lily isn't here."

"I don't give a fuck about where she is, you don't need to protect her from me. Where's Mae?"

"Mae?" Abdiel looked confused and stood taking a step towards the Demon. "What do you mean."

Ryan took a step matching the Angels and closing the gap further. "I'm not fucking playing with you! Where is she?"

"Raim I really don't know what you mean."

Ryan closed the gap and took hold of the front of the Angels shirt, they were the same height and Ryan shook him. "Where the fuck is my daughter?!"

"Let me through!" A woman's voice caught their attention and they both looked to the doors as they swung open. Lily stood in the doorway looking at the two men. "Raim."

He growled as she spoke his name and turned back to the Angel, his eyes flashed red and he growled through gritted teeth.

"Raim stop." He paused again at her voice and felt a faint jolt in the back of his mind, turning to her he let go of Abdiel and took a step towards her, she held out her hand and he saw tears in her eyes as she looked at his blood soaked face and clothes. The warmth at the back of his mind grew and he struggled with what he was thinking.

He took another step towards her until they stood face to face, she craned her neck to look into his eyes and she reached up to place her hand on his cheek. Instantly he felt their bond, it flooded his senses and without a word he wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her into his arms. She held him tightly and hugged his hips with her knees and kissed him, tangling her fingers in his hair she kept their faces close and spoke against his mouth.

"Don't you ever think that again." Her voice was strained and she kissed him again.

"I thought you renounced me, I thought you were gone."

"Never."

"But I couldn't feel you."

"It wasn't me," she shook her head. "It wasn't me."

"I can feel you now." He kissed her again. "I can feel you now."

Lucy and Aaron stood in the doorway and Abdiel watched them from where Ryan had left him, finally Ryan placed her back on the floor and she turned to the Angel. There was blood on her face and clothes from where Ryan had held her but her eyes looked clearly to him.

"Where is she?"

"I told you before," the Angel spoke feeling a deep sadness in his chest. "I don't know."

"Abi please," he shut his eyes at the sound of his nickname and shook his head. "She has my daughter. I haven't asked you for anything but I'm asking you now, please tell me where she is."

"I really don't know Angel, she didn't tell me. She didn't tell me about any of this. She mentioned something about going to find Gabriel."

"Gabriel? My father?"

"That's all she said. I don't know where she was going." A look of understanding crossed her face and he smiled. "You know where she is?"

"Infernum." She turned to Ryan.

"I thought that place was myth," her mate looked confused.

"So did I until she took me there."

"What's Infernum?" Aaron spoke.

"It's said to be one of the last places Angels cannot get to, that and Purgatory. Demons gathered there before the war, its the home of the resistance, or at least it was. I think they're all dead now."

"You know how to get there?" Ryan asked and she nodded.

"I want to help." Abdiel spoke and they all turned to look at him incredulously and he held his hands up. "I know I'm not your favourite person and probably not the most trustworthy but I truly knew nothing of this, I never would have taken your daughter from you."

"You came to Purgatory, almost killed us and now we're supposed to believe that you wouldn't hurt the daughter that proves the bond that keeps your mate from you?" Aaron's voice was scathing. "You're fucking insane."

Abdiel still looked at Lily and she searched his face, holding out her hand he walked to her and took it. She looked into his eyes and her face was sad. 

"You make it fucking hard to trust you Abi."

"I know Angel, but I want to help. That's all." She still looked unsure and he took her hand and placed it over his heart, he had done this when they were children, running his finger over her hand in a cross he looked seriously at her. "Cross my heart."

She shook her head laughing slightly. "We're not kids any more."

"You always used to trust this promise though, its all I can do."

She looked into his eyes for a moment before nodding. "Ok, but I don't want you to see where we're going," she ripped a strip from the bottom of her green vest and reached on tiptoe, before she tied it round his eyes though she gazed into them. "If you try anything, you try and help her, you try and hurt any of us or don anything to put Mae in danger and I will kill you." He nodded his understanding and she wrapped the materiel around his eyes and tied it tightly. She nodded to Aaron and Lucy who came forward and took hold of his arms, Ryan touched her shoulder gently and leant down to speak in her ear.

"Can we really trust him?"

"I don't know," her voice was soft. "I really don't know."

*

Outside she turned to the others. "I wont be able to keep the doorway open for long, we're going straight to the entrance of the sanctuary and it's protected. With him it will be even harder to open it so we'll have less than a minute," she glanced at Abdiel who stood calmly flanked by the Elf and Ryan's Follower. Taking a deep breath she closed her eyes and began speaking under her breath, the words were foreign and even Ryan didn't understand what she was saying, a shimmering light appeared in front of them and began to grow, a dark hallway could be seen through the hole in the air and she motioned them forward, her eyes still closed and never stopping her quiet chant. The rest stepped through the doorway she created and she followed the light instantly disappearing and she let out a shaky breath. Ryan stroked a curl back from her forehead.

"You OK poppet?"

She nodded turning her face into his hand before opening her eyes and looking around. "We're not quite at the door, its just down this way."

They followed her through the stone corridor dimly lit by candles until they came to large round stone door, she placed her hand on the surface and spoke one word.

"Feristaar." Her eyes flashed red as her Demon blood came to the surface and the door rolled opening into the chasm of the Sanctuary. Lucy looked around in wonder.

"Well fuck me, it is real."

Lily lead them through the aisle, shelve branched off either side and she watched the floor as she walked, she held up a hand and they all stopped. On the floor there was a round circle of marble and she spoke quietly.

"Merstiraas," the marble circle glowed white and she looked to the others. "This is going to feel horrible." Then she stepped on the glowing circle and seemed to disappear, the rest looked to each other and Ryan shrugged. Following his mate he stepped onto the light and an instant feeling of sickness overtook him, it felt as though he fell a great distance his stomach lurching before his feet touched ground and he opened his eyes looking around. He was stood in the middle of a circle of old tone houses, the floor beneath him was cobblestones and Lily stood beside him. The others landed next to them, their faces slightly pale and Lucy clutched her stomach.

"Ugh that was horrible."

Lily smiled guiltily. "Sorry," she nodded to Abdiel. "You can take it off now."

He undid the blindfold and looked around. "Holy shit, I never thought an Angel would ever be here."

"You will be the only one." Lily's voice was threatening and he nodded in understanding.

"Which one is she in?" Ryan spoke looking around at the houses.

She pointed to one in front of them. Her hand shook and she swallowed. "I don't want to do it." She turned to look at Ryan.

"We have to, we have to get Mae back."

She nodded and together they stepped into the house, it was sparsely furnished and through a door they could hear soft singing. She followed the sound and pushed open the door. Tayana held the tiny baby in a pink blanket, she stood at a large wooden table rocking back and forth but looked up when they entered. She smiled when she saw Abdiel but her face turned sour when her gaze landed on Ryan.

"What's he doing here?" She held Mae tighter to her. "He isn't supposed to be here."

"Where else would I be Tayana?" Ryan's voice was strained as he tried to keep his anger in check.

"He was meant to kill you," she glanced to Abdiel. "Abi what are you doing?"

"I've told you Demon," Abdiel's voice was filled with disgust. "Don't call me that."

"Mum?" Lily stepped forward. "What are you doing?"

"This is the best way baby," Tayana's smile was almost unhinged and she nodded as though she was trying to convince herself. "With you and Raim gone I would raise your child with Abi and give her a good life. She would be raised as an Angel, she would be safe."

"She is safe with me," Lily held her arms out. "Give her back to me."

Tayana shook her head and stepped backwards. "No," her voice was angry and her eyes flashed dangerously. "No, you've always had everything. What do I have? Your father is gone, I have nothing and the man I love pines after you." She looked down at the child in her arms and as they watched she changed before their eyes. Her face turning younger, the grey going from her hair as it lengthened to her waist and when she next looked to them it was as though Lily stood in front of them. "He would have killed Raim and then I would have taken your place at his side, we would raise this child together and in time he would learn to love me."

"I could never love you." Abdiel's voice was like ice and Tayana's face fell returning to her own.

"Don't say that Abi. Please. What else do I have?"

"Everything you have you brought upon yourself, what happened to your mate you brought upon yourself."

Lily looked from her mother to the Angel. "What does he mean?" No one answered. "Mum what does he mean? Dad left to keep us safe, you always told me he left to keep us safe."

"Don't be so fucking stupid," Tayana spat out the words. "You stupid child you think everything jut falls into place for you but it doesn't, you know the only thing that can kill an Angel once they have bonded with their mate?" Lily's face fell her eyes growing wide and she shook her head. "Only their mate can kill an Angel."

"Mum no."

"I killed your father."

Lily took a step backwards. "No, no." Her face changed as the information hit her and her eyes flashed angrily, growing darker and bleeding out until they were two black pools in her face. "Why? How could you fucking do that?!"

"Because why should you be allowed to live? Do you know what you are? You're an abomination, we should have killed you at birth."

"Tayana," Abdiel spoke calmly. "Give Mae back to them."

The Demon turned to him. "What?"

He took a step forward and his voice was soothing calming everyone in the room. "You don't need to do this, give them back their daughter. They mean nothing."

"What do you mean?"

"You want me? Then you can have me, I'll be yours but give Mae back."

Tayana looked suspicious. "You're lying."

"No, I love you and I always have. We don't need them."

"Really? You mean it?"

"I mean it," he held out his hand. "Come with me."

Tayana looked shocked and her arms slackened their grip, Ryan stepped forward and took the bundle from her arms holding his daughter close to his chest he kissed her head and turned to walk away. Tayana seemed to lift from a reverie and shook her head, reaching behind her she took a dagger from the waistband of her jeans and raising it above her head went to plunge it into Ryan's back.

"No!" Lily shouted and raised her hand. A ball of white light flew from her hand and hit Tayana in the chest, she gasped and stumbled backwards her eyes growing dull. Her eyes rolled back in her head and in front of their eyes her skin turned black and seemed to flake away like ash. Lily watched her mouth open in horror as her mother disappeared leaving behind nothing but a black burn mark on the floor.

Ryan, Aaron, Lucy and Abdiel all looked at her with something like fear on their faces.

"What was that?" Aaron spoke quietly.

"That," said Abdiel. "That was Angel Light."



Tormented Ch. 15



They had left Infernum in silence, Lily had opened the doorway and they had all stepped through to the world that stood between Heaven and Hell. She had turned to Ryan and spoke softly.

"Take Mae home."

"What are you going to do?" He glanced at Abdiel warily.

"Please Ryan, I need to know what's going on."

He looked at her face carefully. He could see the confusion and fear in her eyes and gently reached out to stroke her cheek. "Ok, be careful."

She watched as a strong wind whipped round them and she waved sadly as they disappeared, instantly she felt the faint tearing pain in her chest as their bond was severed by the worlds divide. She and Abdiel stood alone. They were in a forest, the dappled light of the moon danced across their skin and she wrapped her arms around her midsection. Neither said anything for a moment and he took a step towards her but he shook her head.

"Abi please I can't." She looked at the floor her eyes burning with tears. "What happened back there," she looked at her hands which were shaking. "What did I do?"

"It was Angel Light." She said nothing and he continued. "All Angels have the Light. It's a diluted form of the power that the One that is Good and True possesses. The Holy guard use it to kill the Demons that have mated, obviously your father had it and passed it to you."

"What is it though?"

"I don't know how to explain it." He paused thinking for a moment. "It's pure energy, it fills them and overtakes their life, feeding off the Demons life force and using it up. Once its gone there is nothing left, like you saw."

"Did you know?" She finally looked at him. "Did you know that she killed him?"

"No, I had no idea about what she did to your father. I always believed he was still alive."

"How could she do that?"

He moved in front of her and ignoring her protests took her into his arms, she resisted for a moment before leaning into his chest. The world around them seemed to disappear as she breathed him in feeling the familiarity of his arms and his warm chest against her ear, his heart beat was faster than her own thumping comfortingly in her ear and she closed her eyes.

"I don't know what to tell you Angel, she wasn't herself. She hasn't been for a long time. You are more precious than you realise and I think she resented you, I think many Demons will. You have an edge over the rest, you have the blood of the Almighty, you are beautiful and you are the kindest person I have ever met in my life. He must have fallen into jealousy which pushed her to madness."

"It was my fault?" Her voice trembled.

"No, nothing that has happened is your fault. Most of it was mine and I am so sorry for what I have done to you, I should have protected you but the thought of not having you clouded my mind. From this moment I will never do anything to hurt you again."

"You wont see me again."

He froze against her his arms tightening and she heard a short exhale of shock. "What?"

"It's not fair, it not fair on either of us. You want me in a way you can't have, I want the friendship we lost long ago." She gently pulled herself out of his arms. "I'm sorry Abi but this is better."

His face was twisted in anguish and for a moment she felt a thrill of fear at what he might do. Finally understanding filled his blue eyes and he nodded. "I'm a better person for having known you Angel."

"And I will never love another like I loved you Abi."

"Even Raim."

"Raim is my mate, my best friend, my other half. You were the first friend I ever knew, the only Angel I ever loved and the closest thing to Heaven I will know. But you will never compare to him, sometimes I wish thing could be different but its always been him and it always will be and I wouldn't change it for anything."

Tears clouded his eyes but he nodded, taking her face in his hands he kissed her forehead before stepping away.

"Goodbye Angel."

She smiled even as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Goodbye Abi."

She closed her eyes and felt the air rise up around her, lifting her hair and bringing goosebumps to her skin. When it died down and she opened her eyes again she stood alone. A cold feeling gripped her chest and she remained still for a moment unsure of what to do, one name rang through her mind and she let out a soft breath before muttering a few words and the wind took her as well.

Back home she walked up the stairs and into Mae's room. Her daughter slept peacefully in her cot unaware of ever having been in danger, she stoked the soft blonde hair so like her fathers and leant down to kiss the soft skin of her daughters cheek.

"Mummy loves you," the tiny infant rolled towards her mothers voice, her tiny hand grabbed hold of a curl of Lily's hair. Gently disentangling herself Lily walked from the room closing the door behind her he walked down the corridor stopping outside hers and Ryan's room. He was suddenly scared to enter.

Pushing the door open slowly she stepped inside, a hand grabbed her wrist and he pushed her against the door slamming it closed and pressed his body against hers. Lifting her he ripped the vest from her body and pulled her bra off her shoulders and pushed it down to rest at her waist. His lips found her breast and he kissed and licked a nipple feeling it harden before moving to the other. His large hands kneaded the round curve of her ass through her jeans and he rolled his hips against her rubbing his hard cock against her pussy through their layers of clothing. She kicked off her trainers before locking her ankles around his hips, arching her back to press her breasts harder against his mouth and holding his hair tightly keeping him against her. With out stopping his teasing of her nipple he ripped her jeans away leaving her in only her white lace thong before lifting her higher until her legs rested over his shoulders and her curled his arms under her thighs and held her hips still with his large hands, the bare skin of his shoulders was warm against hers and she shuddered as his hot breath tickled the sensitive skin between her thighs. Hungrily he licked her through the lace, her sweet juices already soaking her knickers and the taste of her drove him wild. Nipping gently at the lace he felt her shiver and her hands found his hair again pulling him closer, silently begging him. He pressed hi tongue against her, feeling her clit through the lace and she laughed huskily in frustration that he could not feel his tongue properly against her. He continued lapping at the fabric, feeling it get wetter and wetter from a mixture of his saliva and her juices, once again finding her clit he circled it with the tip of his tongue and she moaned pressing her hips against his face, jerking as the heat in her belly grew and her legs went tense as her orgasm grew. Finally he moved the lace from her soft pussy and, wrapping his lips around the small nub of flesh, sucked on her clit and she came hard, shaking violently and he greedily drank the sweet juice that ran from her. She relaxed, but only for a moment as he thrust his tongue into her and immediately her muscles tensed again as white hit pleasure shot through her and he cried out. He slid one hand over the stomach and down to her pussy where he found her clit and rubbed it firmly with a finger, her hands came to her firm breasts and she twisted and pinched her pink nipples between her fingers. It did not take long before her orgasm built again and she was shivering in his arms, he thrust his tongue deep inside her and pinched her clit with a his thumb and forefinger and she came again, coating his tongue with her juices and again he accepted them into his mouth hungrily. She slumped back against the door breathing heavily and he looked up at her flushed face from between her legs, her dark eyes burned in her face and her chest rose and fell quickly as she panted for breath. He let her slide down his body and when her feet hit the floor dug his fingers into her hair holding it tightly, her eyes fell to his broad chest and once again she looked at each of the scars there. She kissed each one gently, lowly moving down his chest to his stomach and kissed the marks there, she flicked out her tongue dipping it into his navel before trailing her lips over his abs until she reached the wait band of his jeans. Her fingers fiddled with the button and zip and she pushed them down along with his boxers freeing his hard cock and flicking her tongue over the tip collecting the drop of precum and swallowing. Swirling her tongue around the head she took the first couple of inches into her warm mouth and he grunted his hands tightening in her hair pulling gently. She worked the head of his cock taking it into her mouth before releasing it and licking her way down the shaft coating it before she reached his balls. She sucked one into her mouth before bathing them both with her tongue and moving to the other, licking the soft skin she rested her hands on his thighs and took his entire length into her throat. He groaned as he looked down, her lips were wrapped around the base of his cock her nose pressed against his stomach as he deep throated his thick length. He pulled back sucking gently before teasing the head again feeling another drop of his liquid spill onto her tongue, she wrapped one small hand around his shaft and began to slowly pump up and down her tongue still teasing the tip. She heard him groan and felt pride well up that she could bring this powerful Demon under her control. Trailing the nails of her other hand gently over his thighs up to his muscled stomach she felt his shiver, running them gently back down his body she brushed them against his balls and he groaned again holding still tighter on her hair. Gently she caressed his balls while her other hand still worked his shaft and her talented mouth teased the head of his cock, looking up his body she met his eyes. They were burning down at her, his jaw clenched and the arms in his bunched as he held her hair tightly. Taking him back into her throat she pushed herself down his length, taking him to the hilt and felt shivers wrack his powerful body. His hands clenched in her hair as he took control and she allowed him to thrust himself into her willing mouth, she held her hands behind her back and looked up into his eyes. With a rough groan he rammed himself to the hilt in her mouth and she felt his hot cum pouring down her throat swallowing all that he gave her. He pulled his still hard cock from her mouth and lifted her into his arms, she wrapped her legs around his waist and thrust her hips against his needing him to fill her. He sat on the edge of the bed and slowly lowered her down onto his cock, he stretched her and she closed her eyes with a soft moan. He held her with his strong fingers digging into her ass and began to move her in his lap. Her nails curled into his shoulders and she rolled her hips, round and round, feeling his cock move deep inside her. He moved one hand to wind her long hair in his grip and pulled arching her back and pressing her soft breasts against his chest. The soft golden hair brushed against her sensitive nipples and a soft sound, almost a giggle, passed her lips. She could already feel her orgasm in the pit of her stomach and she held him round the back of the neck working her hips faster, he let go of her hair and spread his hand across her back bringing her closer and taking a nipple into his warm mouth. She cried out and held his head to her breast thrusting her hips even faster, she could hear his breathing speeding up and knew he was close as well and a moment later he growled loudly and bit down on her nipple a he came filling her with his seed. Her own orgasm followed her pussy milking his cock and she dropped her head to rest on his shoulder, they both breathed heavily and slowly, his cock still deep inside her, he moved so he lay against the pillows with her on his chest. Her legs were either side of his and he stroked her thigh with one hand while the other rested under his head.

"Are you OK?" It was the first either of them had spoken since she had returned and his question surprised her making her think. Was she OK?

"I don't know." She answered truthfully not lifting her head from his chest, the slow beat of his heart soothing her and she felt his warmth in the back of her mind through their bond.

"He didn't try and do anything?" She felt a twinge of his anger and shook her head.

"No, we talked and said goodbye. I told him it was the last time I would see him. He seemed sad."

"Anyone losing you would be sad poppet." His hand still stroked the skin of her thigh absent-mindedly her skin silky under his calloused hand.

"He told me about the Angel Light." He went still beneath her as he remembered the fate that ha befallen Tayana. "Apparently all Angels have it, its in my blood. My father passed it to me but I had no idea." She swallowed hard tears suddenly filling her eyes and she buried her face into his broad chest. "I didn't want to kill her, I didn't know that would happen. I never meant to kill her."

Ryan wrapped his arms around her stroking her hair as she cried whispering gently into her ear. "Shhh baby shhh its OK. You did what you had to, she took Mae. She was going to kill you."

"She wouldn't have, she couldn't have done that to me."

"She was sick, she said so herself she was going to take your place. How could she have done that if you were still alive?"

Lily was silent for a moment as what he said registered. He was right. Her mother had convinced herself that she could become her daughter, take her life then take her place.

"She's my mother, how could she have hated me so much?"

"She wasn't right, you weren't her daughter any more at least not in her eyes." His words were harsh but exactly what she needed to hear, she realised that no amount of consolation would help and only be understanding the depth of her mothers madness could she come to forgive herself for what she had done. "I'm sorry baby, I'm so fucking sorry that it had to be you who did it but I'm not sorry she's gone. If she had done anything to you I don't know what I would have done."

"Did you really believe I could do that?"

It was his turn to be surprised and his hand stilled on her hair. "What?"

"When she came to you, when he was me did you really believe her? Do you really think I would do that?"

He started stroking her hair again. "No. I don't think you would do that but it seemed so real. I couldn't feel you, I couldn't feel our bond. She said, well you said that you didn't love me and I knew it wasn't true but I couldn't make myself believe it, I thought I had lost you and I couldn't think. I couldn't feel our bond. I couldn't feel you."

She felt a fraction of the pain he had felt earlier and winced. "Do you think that I don't love you? After everything? You really think that of me?"

"I didn't know what to think. All I knew was when I saw you again, when I felt you again I," he paused looking for the right words. "It was like I was seeing you for the first time again, everything came back and I knew that you were mine."

"I love you Raim." She turned her chest resting her chin on his chest and looking into his eyes. "Don't ever fucking forget it and never think so badly of me again." She sounded outraged and he couldn't help but laugh at her serious expression. He kissed her and she felt his cock, still buried inside her, grow hard making her moan against his mouth. He sat up still holding her against his chest, still pressing kisses against her lips, he began to thrust up into her as his tongue teased her lips open and slid into her warm mouth. He curled a large hand round the back of her neck and she matched his thrusts driving him deeper inside her, he took her plump bottom lip between his teeth biting gently. He was close already and she felt him grow harder inside her, she smiled and thrust her hips faster until he exploded inside her and she came around his cock as he held her tightly to his chest. He kissed her again just enjoying being close to his mate, the feel of her skin against him, the soft scent of her skin and the sweetness of her hair, the warmth of her breath on his neck and the feeling of her lips on his throat.

They stayed like that until a cry broke the silence, Lily laughed and went to get up but he tipped her onto the bed and stood.

"I'll get her," he pulled on a pair of short grey sweatpants and threw another pair at her along with a white vest. He watched as she dressed, the vest was tight against her breasts and her nipples pressed against the fabric, her hair was wild curling over her shoulder and down her back onto the bed, her dark eyes sparkled at him and he leant his hands on the beds and kissing her, she caught his round the back of the neck deepening the kiss and he grabbed her waist bunching the vest in his hand.

Pulling away with a soft laugh she licked her lips and caught the bottom one under her teeth. "Go get Mae."

He flashed her a smile and brushed his thumb over her nipple hearing her gasp before pushing himself to a standing position and walking from the room. She shook her head and pushed her hair off her face, winding it into a thick plait she pulled it over her shoulder and looked back at the door as it opened again. He held Mae in his strong arms and came to sit on the bed facing her, he sat Mae down between his legs with her back resting against his stomach, he supported her head and held onto one tiny hand. Lily scooted forward and draped her legs over his making a small space between them where their daughter sat, she reached out and tickled Mae's stomach and for a couple of hours they played, they talked and they marvelled at the child they created. Every so often he would catch sight of the ring on her finger and felt a flash of happiness run through him, she felt it and looked up at him through her long eyelashes. She leant forward, threading her fingers though the soft blonde curls she kissed him before dropping her head to kiss the sleeping babies forehead, Ryan lay Mae down on the bed and Lily lay next to her resting her hand on Mae's stomach. Ryan slid down the bed to lay on the other side and stretched his arm on the pillows and Lily rested her head on him and he curled his arm round to stroke her hair. He rested his other hand on the bed beside Mae who clasped one finger with her entire hand in her sleep, he watched them as they slept and when the sunlight came through the curtains he too drifted off to sleep.

*

For the next six months their lives were quiet. Mae grew now sitting and babbling at her parents and and Aaron and Lucy and the adults had worked on plans for the wedding, many of their friends had laughed at the idea of a wedding but now, as the date drew closer, they looked forward to the idea of a last ditch fuck you to the Angels. Lily and Ryan were gone for the day and Lucy and Aaron watched over the Demons daughter. She lay in her crib smiling and gurgling at the Elf and Follower and Lucy smiled back almost sadly.

"Do you ever think maybe we shouldn't be here?" Aaron frowned and turned to look at her.

"What do you mean?"

Lucy still looked down into the dark eyes of the baby as they slowly drifted closed as she fell asleep. "It's so hard for them. They're meant to be together and look what has happened. Lily got taken, Ryan was killed, you were going to die, the one place they thought was safe was taken from them, their child has been put in danger, Lily's mum planned to kill her and after all of this she's half Angel and who knows what will happen when the others find out what she is. Is so hard, everything is keeping them apart but they fight it all. Its so easy for us, I just think maybe us being here rubs it in their faces a bit."

He took her hand and lead her from the room closing the door behind them, he took her hand and lead her downstairs and out onto the back porch. He looked into her blue eyes and stroked her red hair back from her face.




Tormented Ch. 15



"Do you know what you are to Lily?"

Lucy shook her head and Aaron took a breath. "She's never had anyone, never let herself get close enough to anyone to form a real friendship. Everyone she's ever known has either left or been killed and when she wasn't with Ryan she was all alone, even her mother had left her before all of this, everything her life has taught her has made her careful about who she trusts but she trusts you. Even Ryan has never seen her this close to someone but him and me and we're bonded, she has to trust us. You were a stranger, she knew nothing of you before this and now she thinks of you as family. Do you know what it would do to her if you left? What it would do to Ryan? To me?" He paused and she heard the emotion in his voice and the soft tremble of his breath. "You are so important to everyone here, she loves you more than anyone because of what you have given her, you cant take that from her, she wont have anything left."

"I didn't know." Lucy looked away and swallowed. "I didn't know any of that."

"She would never tell anyone she would never let anyone know that she was lonely, she's too strong for that. You just need to know that you being here is the only thing that keeps her going sometimes, she needs you Luce."

She wrapped her arms around the Followers waist and buried her face in his neck, he held her tightly stroking his hand down her back and kissed her hair.

"I love you, all of you. Don't let me forget and think that again ok?"

They heard the door open from the front of the house and she quickly wiped her eyes that were filling with tears. "And never tell her I said that ok?"

He nodded and they walked back into the kitchen, Lily and Ryan stood at the counter, Ryan twisted the top of a huge bottle of champagne while Lily reached on tiptoe to pull glasses out of a cupboard, she placed them on the table and smiled at the two of them as they walked in.

"Come sit we're celebrating!" Her voice was filled with excitement and she practically bounced up and down on the spot, the Elf looked at the brightness in the Demons eyes and couldn't help her own smile. They sat at the table and Ryan poured each of them a glass of champagne before pulling Lily to sit on his lap.

"What we celebrating?" Aaron asked looking at them with a raised eyebrow, they smiled at each other before she turned back to him.

"We have a date."

Lucy shrieked. "You finally picked one!"

Lily nodded. "I know, 17th of July, the day we met."

Ryan shrugged one broad shoulder. "It's kind of cheesy I know but seemed fitting," he kissed his mates shoulder. "The church is booked, the reception, the invitations have been sent. All that's left is the dress and suits but we'll need you guys for that."

"But wait," Lucy looked confused. "That's less than a month away, how will you get everything else ready in time?"

"We'll do it," Lily smiled. "I'm taking you dress shopping tomorrow and then we're planning the hen do."

"Can't ever do things the easy way can you little lady?"

She shook her head and drained her glass. "Its part of my adorable nature and effortless charm."

They laughed and for the next couple of hours they drank and talked together until the sound of Mae crying brought them back. Lily laughed her cheeks flushed from drink and stood. "I'll get her then I'm going to bed," she looked back to Lucy. "Remember dress shopping tomorrow, I'll want to leave early."

"You got it." Lily walked from the kitchen and Ryan watched after her.

"Fucking dress shopping, who would have thought we would ever get this far?" He leant and kissed Lucy on the cheek before clapping Aaron's shoulder. "Suits tomorrow mate, don't think that you're getting out of this."

"Can't wait."

Ryan disappeared through the door leaving the two of them alone in the kitchen, she watched after them with a sad smile before turning back to Aaron.

"How do they do it?"

"Do what baby?" Aaron took hold of her hand and brought it to his lips kissing her soft skin.

"Stay so positive, so happy through everything that's happened?"

"They're together. That's all they've ever wanted. Nothing has been easy for them so this is the best things has ever been."

"But so many things have gone wrong, what if something else happens?"

He stood and lifted her into his arms, walking through to their bedroom he pushed the door closed with his foot and dropped her onto the bed, she grinned at the look on his face and crawled backwards until his hand around her ankle stopped her and he pulled her back towards him. Quickly he stripped her clothes from her and kneeling between her legs he kissed the inside of her thigh, she sighed and keeping herself upright with one hand on the bed behind her while her other hand rested on the back of his head trying to pull him closer. He resisted and she laughed in frustration as he kissed her thigh again before running his tongue upwards, stopping just before his lips reached her pussy. He pulled her legs to hang over his shoulders and ran his tongue along her pussy tasting her before spreading her wider and thrusting his tongue deep inside her.

"Oh fuck," she fell back against the bed with one hand over her face. He moved his tongue back up to press gently against her clit and sliding one finger into her tight pussy, she arched her back pressing her pussy harder against his face and he sucked on her clit and began to move his finger inside her. "Aaron." Her voice was a soft plea but he waited, not giving her what she wanted, drawing out her pleasure until she was shaking and her breathing ragged, soft moans came from her throat and finally he gave her what she wanted and twisted his fingers inside her hitting the nerves and she came undone her back arching and her nails digging into the sheets.

He stood and stripped his clothes off before kneeling back on the bed and crawling between her legs, he held her to his chest with one muscled arm and crawled up the bed until he lay her head on the pillows before settling himself back between her thighs and kissing her. She moaned as she tasted herself on his mouth, he pushed inside her slowly until he was buried to the hilt and felt her pussy tightened around his hard length. He stayed like that for a moment before pulling out until just the tip remained inside her before slamming back in, he pulled back and she laughed in frustration.

"You're teasing me."

His body shook with the effort of holding still and he leant down to kiss her, slowly he began to thrust into her, taking her wrists in his hands he held them against the bed either side of her head. Her knees came up to hug his hips drawing him deeper and he groaned his eyes sliding shut, his hips moved quicker, pushing in deep he felt the tight walls of her pussy massage his cock and she wrapped her legs around his waist trying to speed up his thrusts. He pushed her wrists harder against the bed immobilising her and sped up the thrusting of his hips, he could feel his orgasm building but gritted his teeth, keeping it back as he slammed into her.

"Oh fuck Aaron, I'm gonna cum."

He leant his head down bringing his lips to her ear. "Not yet."

She moaned and bit her lip, her stomach tensed as she fought to keep her orgasm back and she began to tremble violently, he kept up his slow deliberate thrusts watching the pleasure build on her face until her eyes flew open and she looked at him with a desperate light in the blue depths.

"Aaron please." Her voice broke as she begged him and he smiled leaning down to speak against her lips.

"Cum for me Elf." 

She screamed as her orgasm ripped through her body and he covered her mouth with his muffling the sound and his own orgasm hit, making him tense against her as he spilled into her tight pussy. He released her wrists, stroking the skin gently and holding her to his chest sat back against her pillows with her on his lap, his cock still buried inside her.

She dropped her head to rest on his shoulder and they stayed silent for a moment.

"Have you ever thought about getting married?" His question startled her and she sat back to look into his eyes.

"When I was a kid, I used to dream about my wedding day but it was different back home. It was a mating ceremony where two elves shared their life force, it's similar to when an angel finds their mate, we become practically immortal. Have you ever thought about it?"

"No, I never thought I would get married, have kids, be part of a family." He swallowed and looked down. "My parents died when I was a baby, I grew up on the streets, I had to learn to take care of myself. I hated the idea of families because I never had one, but since I met you..." He paused and she stroked his cheek tilting his head back up to look at her.

"I didn't know that."

"Only Ryan knows, Lily doesn't even know. But since I met you its different, I can see myself spending the rest of my life with you."

"You can."

"Yeah," he smiled. "Who wouldn't want to spend their life with you Luce?"

"We could," she blushed but continued. "There is a way that we can complete the ceremony."

"But I thought you said only Elves could do it?"

"An Elf can take a human for their mate, like when a Demon or an Angel make a Follower, we give you our life force and they become one of us."

"A human but not a Follower?"

She looked into his eyes with a strange expression, her mouth opened but not words came out, instead she shook her head and dropped her eyes.

"What is it?" He searched her face.

"There is a way. Your master would have to release you and you would become human again, then the ceremony would have to be completed within three days otherwise your years would catch up to you and you would waste away. It is something that the Follower must be completely sure about, your master cannot take you back once they have released you."

"I wouldn't be Ryan's Follower anymore?" He took a moment to let it sink in. "That's all I've been for so long I cant imagine myself without him."

"I'm sorry, I never should have brought it up."

He stopped her words with a kiss. "I'll do it."

Her eyes widened. "You will?"

"Whenever you'll have me Elf."

He kissed her again and she held him tightly. 

Without warning his eyes opened, flashing dangerously and he pulled away his staring at the window.

"What is it?" She asked sounding worried.

"It's an Angel, I can feel it." He tipped her off his lap and stepped into his jeans, opening the door he met Ryan as he ran down the stairs. "You feel that?"

Ryan nodded, Lily stood on the stairs behind him holding Mae to her chest and Lucy, after pulling her clothes back on, ran up to stand beside her.

"What's going on?" She leant down to speak into the Demons ear.

"There's an Angel here."

"Is it Abdiel?"

Lily shook her head, holding Mae closer to her chest. "No, I would know if it was him."

Ryan opened the door slowly and looked out into the darkness, he couldn't see a thing. Turning back to Lily he spoke seriously.

"Stay here."

She nodded and he took a step outside, Aaron followed and together they walked out into the night air. It was silent, the darkness pressing around them and they stared round looking for any sign of movement.

"See anything?" Aaron asked and Ryan shook his head.

"Where the fuck are they?"

"Can you feel them anymore?"

"Nothing," Ryan kicked the floor angrily with a feeling of dread deep in his stomach. Pushing it down he turned back to Aaron who was looking at him with a knowing look.

"You know who it was don't you?" Aaron watched his master.

"Shh, Lily cant know." Ryan pulled his Follower further away from the house, his green eyes flashed as he looked around.

"Who was it?"

"I don't know, I've felt them before but not for a long time. Not since the war." He took a deep breath and ran his hands through his hair. "Whoever it was they're gone now. We should go back, we'll know if they come back before they get too close."

"Ryan?" Aaron stayed where he was watching the Demon. "I'm not asking you to tell me who it was if you don't want to I just want to know how dangerous they are."

Ryan shrugged his shoulder. "I don't know, I haven't seen them they could be anyone by now. They wont be the person I remember. But they wont touch Lily, they wont touch Mae or Lucy. I'll make sure of that."

Aaron nodded and walked back into the house, Ryan stayed where he was staring out at the dark hills of Purgatory. His head swam and his heart pounded as he thought about the presence he had felt.

Turning he followed Aaron inside, he and Lucy had disappeared and Lily had gone back upstairs, he locked the door and followed her up. Climbing back into bed he rested his head on one arm and stared up at the ceiling, Lily slid under the covers beside him, she rested her head on his chest, sliding her arm across his muscled stomach she cuddled close.

"What was that?"

"I don't know poppet, whoever it was they've gone now."

"We're meant to be safe here, they're not meant to come here."

"They're just trying to scare us, its not going to work. I'm going to look after you."

She said nothing but moved closer, neither of them slept, each feeling the others fear through their bond. He stroked her hair trying to soothe her and when the sun finally came through the window she rolled over and stood, disappearing into the bathroom he listened as the shower came on and sat up his head in his hands. The memory of last night still weighed heavily on his mind and he took a deep breath to calm himself, walking though to the bathroom he leant against the wall watching her through the glass. She felt his eyes on her and turned, beckoning him she waited until he joined her in the shower, he still wore his jeans and as he stepped under the water he stared down at her naked body. She shivered at the feel of his eyes on her and reached out to touch his chest running her fingers over the scars there, he took her face in his hands and leant down to kiss her, she tried to press her body against him but he shook his head not opening his eyes.

"Stay still." His voice was low and she froze. His eyes opened and he reached behind her to pick up the soap, lathering his hands he ran them down her arms, lifting them above her head he did the same until he reached her armpits them down her waist his fingers just brushing her breasts. Dropping to his knees he washed her legs, starting at her ankles, smoothing his hands up her legs to her hips then back down her inner thighs just missing her pussy. A shudder ran through her and she looked down at him, he ran his hands up the back of her legs to cup her ass and kissed her stomach, she rested her hands on his blonde curls and he looked up her body to met her eyes.

For a moment they did nothing but watch each other, her chest rose and fell quickly with her breathing, her eyes grew even darker flashing down at him. He kissed her abdomen before trailing his lips downwards to kiss the soft skin of her thighs, flicking out his tongue he tasted her juices before plunging it deep into her pussy. She moaned and he lifted her and pulled her legs over his shoulders taking her weight, flicking his tongue over her clit he kissed her soft pussy and felt her fingers tighten in his hair. He pressed his face into her pussy lapping at her clit listening to her soft mewls of pleasure before taking the small nub into his lips and sucking gently.

She felt her orgasm building and arched her back, pulling him closer with her legs against his back and her hands in his hair, he moved one hand under her and slowly pushed two fingers into her tight heat. Moving the slowly he pushed upwards hitting against the sweet spot inside her and sucked hard on her clit and she cried out, the sound of the water drowned out her sounds of pleasure and she slumped back against the cool tiles and he smiled kissing her thigh. He let her slip down his body until she straddled his legs and settled himself back against the wall of the shower, he wriggled out of his jeans and she felt his hard cock against her pussy as it sprang free. She rose up and reached between them and positioned him at her entrance before sinking down slowly until he was buried deep inside her. His eyes closed in pleasure and his fingers dug into her ass as he slammed his hips upwards and she whimpered as he hit against her cervix in a mix of pleasure and pain. He kissed her and waited until she began to move, her hips rising and falling coating his cock in her juices and the tight walls of her pussy massaging his thick length. Placing her hands on his thighs behind her she leant back allowing him to look down at his cock as she fucked herself on him, he leant back and allowed her to do as she wanted, his fingers dug into her thighs bruising the skin and he gritted his teeth against a growl that rumbled through his broad chest.

"Faster." Something in his voice made her falter and she looked into his eyes with fear. They had darkened into two red and the blonde of his hair was gone replaced with glossy black curls, his teeth had lengthened and sharpened into fangs and she shuddered as he looked at her. His nails sharpened into black claws and they dug into her skin drawling blood and she hissed in a pained breath. She started to move her hips again, faster feeling his cock hit deep inside her and he leant forward to take a nipple into his mouth, the sharp points of his fangs scraped across the sensitive skin and he tasted her blood in his mouth. Throwing her backwards he turned her onto her stomach before straddling he ass and pushing his cock back into her, leaning forward he rested his weight on his hands either side of her shoulders and began to pound his hips against her, her tight pussy gripped his cock and she threw her head backwards sending her long hair cascading down his back. She bit her lip trying to keep her screams of pleasure in but when he leant down and bit her neck her whole body shook and she cried out as she came again. He kept up his hard rhythm drawing her orgasm out until he came deep inside her filling her before dropping his head to rest between her shoulder blades.

For a moment they stayed where they were breathing heavily until he rose to his knees allowing his cock to slip out of her and gathered her onto his lap. Kissing her shoulder he waited until his heart had slowed before speaking.

"What are you doing today?"

"Me and Lucy are going to look at dresses, we should start soon otherwise we'll run out of time." She turned her head to look up at him, his eyes had returned to their bright green and she reached up to touch his stubbled cheek. "Are you ok?" 

He nodded. "I'm fine, go get ready."

She stared at him for a moment before standing and walking from the shower, wrapping herself in a towel she disappeared into their room and he felt guilt weighing on him, keeping it down he stopped it seeping through their bond and stood. Throwing his wet jeans into the hamper he tied a towel around his waist and followed her into their room, she sat at the dresser brushing her long hair and he sat on the edge of the bed watching her. She wore a blue bra and thong and he clenched his fists to stop himself going over to her.

"What are you going to do today?" She stood and walked to the wardrobe, pulling a red silk dress with a square neck she dressed and stepped into heeled red shoes.

"I don't know yet." 

He said nothing else and she watched him with a concerned look on her face. "Are you sure you're ok?" She reached out to him but he pulled away.

"Yeah I'm fine, I'll see you later ok?" He couldn't look at the hurt in her dark eyes and she walked from the room without another word, downstairs Lucy waited for her and they left the house and crossed the gap between Purgatory and the regular world. They spent their day trying on countless dresses in countless shops, each had champagne on ice waiting for them by Ryan's request and by the time they left the tenth they were light headed and giggling.




Tormented Ch. 15



Lucy linked her arm through the Demons. "So what do you think?"

"I don't know, I love them all."

"Well we still have another shop to go to."

Lily laughed. "You're enjoying this way too much."

"A day shopping with unlimited funds and champagne practically on tap, who wouldn't enjoy this?"

They entered the last shop and a smiling woman greeted them. "Ah you must be Lily."

"Hi," the woman handed them both a glass of champagne and lead them through to the back of the shop. Hundreds of dresses hung round the room and they looked round in awe.

"Take your time ladies." The woman left them and they spent the next couple of hours looking through and trying on the dresses until finally Lily collapsed on the white sofa.

"None of them!" She turned to Lucy with exasperation in her eyes. "How can there not be one?"

"Because you've got a dress in your head and none of these are them."

"I guess." Lily drained her glass. "We should get back."

Lucy nodded and took her hand, a wind lifted their hair and they were back in Purgatory, they walked into the house and Lily kissed the Elf's cheek. "Thank you for today, I needed to get away from here for a bit."

"Anytime kid."

Lily walked upstairs and stepped into Mae's room, her daughter slept peacefully and she leant down to kiss her forehead, stroking the soft blonde curls out of the babies eyes she watched her for a moment before straightening and moving to the bedroom she shared with her mate.

"Ryan?" Tentatively she pushed the door open and stepped inside. "Ryan?"

He sat on the bed his head in his hands, he didn't look up as she entered and she closed the door behind her moving closer to him.

"Ryan we need to talk."

"About what?" His answer made her jump and she felt anger rising.

"What do you think? About last night, there was an Angel here! Another one and you knew who it was."

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Don't fucking lie to me Raim!" She took a step towards him. "Don't lie to me, I know you and I trust you with my life, I trust you with Mae's life but I want to know who it was. How do you know them? Why didn't you tell me?"

"The same way you told me about Abdiel?"

"I never lied to you about him, you know from the beginning that I knew an Angel."

"Drop this Lilith, you don't know what you're talking about."

"I don't know anything anymore!" Her voice had risen and he stood, in seconds he was in front of her covering her mouth with his in a hard kiss.

"Drop it." 

His voice was dangerous but she didn't back down, pushing him away she glared at him.

"Fuck you Raim."

She disappeared sprinting down the hallway, he watched after her guilt in his stomach. She ran through the hills and when she was far enough away from the house she closed her eyes and leapt across the worlds. She landed in a clearing, the sun was setting throwing shadows across the floor and she took a deep breath before calling out gently.

"Abi?" A breeze lifted her hair and then she felt his soothing presence.

"Angel? What's the matter?"

She turned and looked into his concerned eyes. "I need your help."

"What's happened?"

"Does Raim know an Angel?"

Abdiel froze and watched her with a wary expression. "What do you mean?"

"Please Abi don't lie to me, not you as well. There was an Angel in Purgatory last night, he was right outside our door and Ryan knows who it was. But he wont tell me."

"It's not my place to say anything Angel."

"So he does know them." She looked to the floor and wrapped her arms around her waist, a great weight seemed to fall on her chest and suddenly it was hard to breathe. "Why would he lie about that?"

Abdiel said nothing but his face still looked guilty. "What is it?" She asked almost afraid of what the answer was going to be, he shook his head and she took a step forward. "Abi please, what is it?"

"Don't you fucking say a word." She spun round to see Ryan stood behind them. "Get away from her."

"She came to me Demon." Abdiel's voice was low with his warning and he stepped forward pushing Lily behind him.

"Get your fucking hands off her."

"Stop it both of you!" She looked from one to the other. "I don't need you to protect me Abi and you," she turned to Ryan. "I asked you, I just wanted to know the truth but you wont tell me. You have no right to follow me here."

"You were going to see an Angel, they're dangerous."

"I am an Angel Raim." She shook her head sadly. "You should remember that sometimes."

She disappeared and the two men were left glaring at each other.

"She wont stay you know, if you keep this from her much longer it will be too late to go back, she'll never trust you again."

"And what do you know about trust Angel? After what you did to her, everything you put her through. You have some fucking nerve to lecture me about trust with my mate."

Abdiel smiled and rubbed his hand over his jaw. "You'll lose her Demon and I know better than anyone, once you've lost the love she had for you, you don't get it back."

The Angel vanished and Ryan was left alone, emotions warred in his stomach and when he finally came back to his senses and returned to Purgatory he walked up the stairs with a purposeful stride in his step. 

"What the fuck..." He cut her off kissing her hard and pushing her against the door closing it, she shoved his chest trying to push him away but he barely stumbled instead lifting her into his arms and walking to the bed. He dropped her down and pulled his t-shirt over his head before ripping the dress from her body and laying between her legs, taking hold of her wrists he held them against and the bed and leant down to kiss her again. 

"Ah fucking bitch." He wrenched his head away and touched his tongue to his lip tasting blood, she had bitten him. Rolling his hips against her he hissed in pain as she kicked against his back, her heeled shoes scratching at his skin and burying his face in her neck he kissed, licked and nibbled until her breathing was fast and her struggles increased.

Taking both hands in one of his he held them down and reached between them to rub her through the lace of her thong, he laughed and spoke against her ear.

"Wet for me poppet? Even after all this?"

She moved her lips to his ear and bit down hard enough to draw blood on the lobe. He swore loudly and took his hand from her pussy bringing it up to grab her hair and wrenched her head back baring her throat to him.

"Be careful little Demon, I wont keep my control forever."

"Fucking wanker," her voice was furious. "Let me go or I swear I'll.."

"You'll what?" He cut her off and looked into her eyes. "What will you do?"

She said nothing and he smiled again. "That's what I thought," he slid his hand back down her body and pushed his finger against her. "Even when you cant stand to look at my face your pussy is wet for me, what does that say about you?" She didn't answer and he slid his hand under the material of her thing to feel her wet flesh. "What does it say about you that someone you cant even look at can make you this wet?"

"What the fuck do you think it says about me?"

He looked into her eyes. "Tell me."

"It says that even now, when you're acting like a complete cunt, I love you. Now get the fuck off me."

"No."

"Ryan get off!"

He pushed a finger inside her and heard her breath hitch in her throat, he pressed deep inside her kissing her neck while she struggled against him. He ripped her underwear away before adding a second finger and working them slowly in and out of her, his thumb brushed over her clit and he laughed at her soft moan.

"So easy poppet." He wanted her angry, angry enough at him that she wouldn't think about the Angel and his involvement. "All I need to do is touch your pussy and you're trembling. Almost ready to cum."

He felt her anger through their bond and pushed his fingers even deeper pressing against the sensitive spot inside that made her squirm and twist up against him. He continued to move his fingers listening to her moans bringing her right to the edge of orgasm before stopping and staying completely still. She growled in frustration and he pushed his jeans down and kicked them away from the bed, he teased her entrance with the head of his cock before slamming his hips against her buying himself to the hilt. She cried out and struggled harder to free her hands, finally he released her bruised wrists and she slapped him hard snapping his head round.

"Fucking bitch!" He curled his fingers round her throat and leant down to rest his forehead against hers, she gasped for breath and pulled at his hand trying to loosen his grip. He was too strong and he ignored her struggles and thrust hard into her, she almost screamed as he bottomed out in her and he pulled back slowly before slamming back inside. He kept up this deliberate rhythm until some of the anger and panic faded from her eyes replaced with dark lust and she arched her back wrapping her legs around his waist. She let go of his hand instead curling her fingers into his hair and his free hand gripped the sheets beside her head, his eyes burned into hers and he sped up his hips moving faster and he felt the tight walls of her pussy gripping his cock tightly. His hand loosened its grip around her throat and slid down to cover her breast, his grip was strong and she whimpered in pain before yanking his hair and rolling them. This time she wrapped her fingers around his throat and his eyes widened before he smiled, she tightened her grip and rolled her hips against him feeling him hit deep inside her. His hand still covered her breast and he pinched her nipple between his fingers hard, she growled and slapped his face again, he sat up wrapping his arm around her waist keeping her close and his hand tangling in her hair. He thrust upwards meeting her hips and she tightened her fingers further round his throat, he kissed her taking her bottom lip between his teeth and thrust faster. She was close and he drew out the suspense as long as possible until his orgasm gripped him and he pushed deep inside her filling her with his hot cum, the feeling pushed her over the edge and she cried out before dropping her head to rest on his shoulder.

"You're a fucking wanker Ryan. You know that right?"

He laughed and stroked her back gently. "I know poppet."

"It didn't work you know."

"What didn't?"

"Don't act dumb, I know what that was. You want to keep my mind off the Angel but it didn't work," she pulled back and looked at him. "Who was he Ryan?"

His anger flared again and he tipped her off his lap standing and pulling his jeans back on. "For fuck sake Lily will you leave it?"

"Why wont you tell me? What could be so bad? We all know an Angel don't think you're fucking special because you do." She wrapped a blanket around her and stood from the bed.

"Why do you need to know Lily? Why is it so fucking important? I've told you not to worry, to leave it why is it so god damn important?!"

"Because you know everything about me!" She smacked a hand against his chest her voice rising to a shout. "You know everything last thing about me, I've never kept anything from you! You're my mate Ryan! You're meant to trust me and I'm meant to be able to trust you but how can I when you keep something like this from me?"

"You don't know what you're asking for Lily."

"Stop doing that! I am not a fucking child, I've been through hell and I've told you everything, every last fucking detail."

"I'm doing it to protect you."

"I don't need you to fucking protect me, I'm fallen, I'm Saier. I'm Eariea, I come from Lucifer and the One Who is Good and True. I have Angel Light. You think I need you to protect me? Now please, Ryan, tell me. Who was it?"

He said nothing and she shook her head sadly, pushing past him she grab a silk nightdress from the chair at the dresser, he caught her arm before she left and his expression was unreadable.

"Lily please."

"Will you tell me?"

"I cant."

She sighed. "Let me go Ryan."

He dropped her wrist and she walked from the room, disposing of her bra she pulled the slip over her head and walked down the stairs and, grabbing a packet of cigarettes, walked outside. She shook one free and placed it between her lips, taking her lighter she tried to light it with shaking hands, cursing when she failed.

"Here," the low voice and the sound of a match being struck made her jump and she turned as someone light her cigarette for her. She looked into the bright green eyes and frowned.

"It's you, you've been watching us."

"I have." Her eyes roamed his face, the strong jaw, the straight nose, the freckles and the red hair but her attention kept being drawn to his eyes. They were so familiar.

"Why?"

"Raim hasn't told you?"

"I know he knows who you are, he wont tell me how. Who are you? Why are you here?"

"He's never told you about me? Well now that is sad," he walked around her looking her up and down taking in her exposed flesh. He wore a grey three piece suit and she frowned at the unusual attire, it looked old. "Me and him go way back, I would have thought he might have at least mentioned my name."

"He never told me he knew an Angel." She took a drag on her cigarette. "Why couldn't I feel you this time?"

He smiled and reached out to take her free hand, she gasped as a wave of desire flooded over her and she had to fight to stop herself stepping forward and pressing herself against him, his smiled widened and his eyes flashed at her. "Because I didn't want you to." He stroked her cheek with the back of his knuckle and she shuddered. "You truly are beautiful."

"What are you doing to me?" Her voice was husky and she tried to pull away but couldn't bring her feet to move.

"I'm not doing anything," he slid his fingers into her hair cradling her head in his large hand. "Why, what does it feel like?"

"Get your fucking hands off her." 

She spun round to see Ryan stood behind them, his fists were clenched at his sides and his eyes burned red.

"Raim, its been a long time."

"Not long enough."

"Well, aren't you going to introduce me?" Ryan said nothing and the man laughed softly. "You really told her nothing about me?"

"Why should I? You're nothing."

He laughed again and rubbed his hand over his chin. "Come on now Raim, that's no way to talk about your own brother."



Tormented Ch. 16



"You're not my brother." Ryan stepped forward his voice a low growl.

"Come on now Raim, you know I never liked that name, you could have chosen something better. Do you mind if I call you Thronnes, its more natural for me."

"Call me whatever the fuck you want just leave, now!"

"Ryan what's going on?" Lily spoke.

"Get back inside." He didn't look at her, never taking his eyes off the man stood before him.

"Not without a proper introduction, I've waited long enough don't you think little brother?" Ryan snarled. "My name is Sammael and it's lovely to finally meet you Lilith."

"How do you know my name?"

"Me and Thronnes have known who you are since the day you were born, we've been watching you. Knowing what you are, have Eariea half Saier why wouldn't we watch you?"

"No Ryan only found out about that when I did. He didn't know," she looked back to her mate. "You didn't know."

"Why do you think you felt that way to me?" Sammael asked quietly. "You were never meant to meet Thronnes, Raim, whatever he's calling himself now. You were meant to be raised an Angel and you were meant to be mine, you were never meant to be on the Demon side of the divide just as he," he jerked his head towards his brother. "Was never meant to fight alongside them."

Her mouth moved but no words came out, her eyes slowly filled with tears and she shook her head. "You are the second person to tell me that you should be my mate instead of Ryan. I didn't feel it with the first and you're now telling me that my Ryan is an Angel. You've been watching me since I was born and I was never meant to be raised a Demon?"

"You were never meant to know you were Fallen."

"That's enough. Lily go inside." Ryan stepped forward but she held up a hand.

"Ryan if what he's saying is true I want to hear it, its more than you've ever told me and from what I'm hearing now you know everything about my life, things I don't even know and you've kept it from me. What else haven't you told me Ryan? What are you?" 

He looked at her before taking a deep breath. "Maybe we should go inside." She still looked wary and he held his hand out to her. "Lily please, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything just there's a lot to tell. Please."

She finally nodded and walked past him into the house, he watched after her before turning back to his brother. "Why now Sam? After everything that's happened why come back now. You know what Abdiel did to her, what he did to me. What her mother did. We were happy, finally properly happy."

"She deserves to know the truth little brother." Sammael placed his hand on Ryan's shoulder. "You should have told her long ago."

"What do you think is going to happen?" Ryan looked into his brothers eyes identical to his own. "That she'll leave with you, take our baby?" Sammael's eyes widened. "Yes Sam we have a baby, not part of your plan was she? You thought she would just up and leave after you told her and she felt whatever it is that's between you, she's mine and I wont let anyone take her from me again."

"We'll see brother, when she's heard everything you might not be able to make that choice."

They followed her inside, as they walked through the door Lucy stepped out of the living room and her eyes flashed.

"What the fuck is an Angel doing here?"

"An Elf?" Sammael turned to Ryan. "Very impressive little brother."

Her eyes widened and she looked to Ryan. "What's he talking about."

"Sit down princess, I'll explain everything."

Lily sat on the sofa, Aaron stood behind her and he watched the Angel warily. Sammael settled himself in the armchair and watched her, Ryan sat beside her and took a cigarette from the packet, lighting it he watched her but she refused to meet his eyes.

"I was born 500 years before the war, my parents were Angels and for a long time I didn't question what happened to Demons. It wasn't my place. Until I heard about Lily, I didn't know who you were or when you would be born but I knew, we both knew, that an Eariea and a Saier would mate and have a child and she would help to stop what happens to the Demons. After that I started to learn about the Fallen, learn about their lives and what happens to them, what Angels do to them and I didn't think it was right. When I tried to speak to my parents they thought I was stupid, thought I was going soft. They wanted me to blindly follow like every other Angel, Demons weren't our concern." He looked back to Lily. "Even before you were born you were all I thought about I didn't want you to grow up in the world we had created for you. When talk of a revolution started I learnt all I could and when the war came I stood beside the Demons, I went against my family and everything I'd been brought up to believe to try and make your life better. When they fell I was taken before the Holy Guard, they took my wings and made me one of you, I'm Fallen in the truest sense of the word and I would do it all again for you. You were raised Demon because of your father, he stood with the Demons to help his mate and they forced him out the same as me, if he hadn't you would have been with them and we would have never met."

"How do you know that?" Her voice was small and she still refused to look at him.

"Because I knew your father, he was a good man and he loved you."

"Do you know that she had killed him? Did you keep that from me as well?"

"No, I didn't know that until she told you. I don't think anyone thought she was capable of doing that."

She nodded and lit a cigarette. "Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell me you were an Angel?"

"I'm not, I gave it up for you. I knew what I was doing and I did it for you."

"Does Abi know?"

Ryan nodded. "For years after the war I was fought in the Pits, his family ran them. He's known me for a very long time."

"He wasn't alive during the war. He's only a year older than me."

"The three of us are much older than we look," he took another drag on his cigarette his hand shaking. "All three of us claimed you as our mate, that had never happened before and because of who you are we were kept from ageing so we could grow up with you. Then one you chose would determine your fate, you chose me."

"What are the pits?" Lucy spoke up from the doorway.

"Angels use Demons for entertainment." Sammael answered, he hadn't taken his eyes of Lily since walking through the door. "The Pits is a gladiatorial event, Demons are faced against each other and fight to the death, if you win you move up and fight the winner of another fight. The Demon who comes out winner is then forced to fight the Angels champion. Only one Demon has ever won against them." He looked to Ryan.

"Careful brother, people might think you're proud of me." Ryan stood and walked to the drinks cabinet, taking a bottle of whisky from inside he sat back beside Lily and drank deeply. "Its something that should never have happened, fighting people for sport. I came out of there, came to America and then I met you." Lily finally looked at him. "That's everything."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't know how to."

She swallowed. "I don't even know what to call you any more, Raim, Thronnes?"

"That's not my name, I haven't had that name since they threw me out."

"And you," she turned to Sammael. "Why are you here? Why now?"

He looked at her and pulled a cigarette from the metal case in his inside pocket and lit it with a match, sitting back he watched her intently. "I came to warn you. The Angels have spoken and they will not allow you two to be mated, they've claimed you as one of their own and wont have you with a Fallen Angel. They will send someone soon to make a deal with you, you will both be allowed to live if you renounce your bond and Lily goes back to Limbo, if you refuse the offer they will send people to take you by force. They don't know about the baby, or if they do they're not speaking about her but they wont spare her, she is everything they are trying to stop. If you go Lily they might let her live, but that is her only chance."

"I'm not leaving."

"Lily," Sammael started to speak but Lily held up her hand.

"I'm not leaving, not once in my life have I had the opportunity choose for myself. You three were picked out for me before I was even born, I was raised Demon because of choices my parents made, I was born to stop whatever war is coming and now my only choice is leave my mate and baby or we'll be killed." She took a deep breath and looked to Ryan. "Well now I'm choosing, I'm staying here with you. I don't care about any of this, anything you've done, you gave up being an Angel for me before you even knew me. You gave up your family for me, I just wish you would have told me before."

"I didn't know how to," he reached out and she took hold of his hand.

"When are they coming?" She turned her attention back to Sammael, he watched their joined hands with a pained expression and took a drag off his cigarette.

"I don't know, I just know they're coming. You should be ready for when they do."

She nodded and stood. "I need to be alone for moment, I've got a lot to think about." She walked from the room and with a backwards glance at Ryan, Aaron and Lucy followed leaving the brothers alone.

"Well that went better than expected." Sammael smiled and leant back in the chair.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing? What gives you the right to do any of that, put her through any of that?"

"She deserved to know brother just as I deserved to see her, you worked so hard to keep us away from her. It could've have been me, it might still be me. We should give her Lucifers Sleep."

"Don't you fucking dare!" Ryan stood and took hold of his brothers throat, pulling him to his feet he spoke through gritted teeth. "You lay one hand on her and I will kill you. I can still kill an Angel, we learnt that when you watched me fight in those fucking Pits and did nothing to help me."

"Then why didn't you kill Abdiel when you had the chance?" Ryan's eyes faltered before regaining their anger. "That's right brother I know about that, you could have taken him out but you didn't why was that?"

"Because of her, because deep down I know she will always love him and the friendship they had. Everything I do, I do for her and I am not going to let you take her away from me."

Sammael looked sad for a moment before smiling. "I know you do," quicker than Ryan could see he brought his elbow up smashing it into the Demons temple and catching him as he fell to the ground unconscious, he lay his brother on the sofa guilt welling up inside him. "But I'm doing this for her as well."

Standing he straightened his suit and smoothed his hair back, looking up the stairs he walked silently up and through the hall, stopping outside one door he looked in. The baby slept peacefully in the crib and he walked over, reaching out he touched the soft cheek and smiled as the infant turned her head into him.

"Beautiful as your mother."

He left the room and continued down the hall, outside her bedroom he knocked and heard a soft voice.

"What is it?"

He pushed open the door and she turned fear clouding her face. "What are you doing in here? Where's Ryan?"

"He's downstairs, please," he shut the door and stepped towards her. "I just want a minute."

"I don't have anything to say to you."

"Lilith please," she watched as his eyes sparkled and felt her fear lessen. "Just one minute, I've loved you for a very long time and I just want to try one thing."

He took another step towards her and reached out, gently he tucked a curl behind her ear, she shuddered as his warm skin brushed hers and looked up into his face. He trailed his fingertips down her neck and down to her chest resting on one soft breast, her breath quickened and she looked down unable to meet his eyes any more.

"What are you doing to me?"

"Nothing, this is how it should have always been." He slid his hands down her body and lifted her, holding her by her thighs he walked to the chest of drawers and set her on top. With her sitting there and him standing their hips aligned perfectly and he stepped between her legs resting his hands on her knees, resting his forehead on hers he took a deep breath stroked the soft skin under his fingers. "I've loved you for over six hundred years, I watched you grow up and I watched you fall for my brother. I just want one moment to see what it would have been like if it had been me." His hands moved slowly up her thighs as he spoke pushing the silk of her night dress up and curling round her hips. Their lips were inches apart and without thinking she curled her fingers into the jacket of his suit and locked her feet around his waist.

"Just one moment Lilith, one kiss so I can know what it would have been like if I had found you first."

His lips met hers and she shuddered, her lips parted and he deepened the kiss pressing himself against her and digging his fingers into her skin. His tongue slipped past her lips and she moaned arcing her back, he slid one hand round to the small of her back holding her tightly and she felt her eyes grow heavy.

"What's happening?"

"Trust me," he spoke against her lips and as she grew weak he held her against him breathing her in. "I never wanted to do it this way but I had no choice, I have to know if you had found me first if it would be different."

"What are you talking about?"

"Shh, just know that I'm sorry."

Darkness clouded her eyes and her head fell to rest on his, he waited until she was unconscious before walking to the bed and laying her down, stroking her hair from her face he kissed her forehead before walking from the room.

*

Ryan woke slowly, a stabbing pain in his head made him groan and he sat up shielding his eyes from the bright sunlight coming through the windows. A sharp ripping pain in his chest made him cry out in agony and he fell to the floor clutching his chest, Memories of last night flooded his mind and he leapt to his feet running up the stairs and bursting into their bedroom, she lay on her back her head facing away from him and he sat on the bed next to her.

"Lily," he gently turned her face towards him and shook her shoulder gently. "Lily can you hear me?"

A soft noise escaped her lips and she stretched turning over to look at him, when her eyes fully opened they widened in fear and she pushed herself into a sitting position and backed away from him.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" She looked around the room. "Where am I?"

Dread settled in his stomach and he reached out flinching when she shied away from his hand. "Lily please, what do you remember?"

"What do you mean? Why am I here, who are you?"

"My names Ryan, I'm your mate."

"I haven't met my mate yet, where am I? Where have you taken me?"

"Lily please," he touched her arm and she felt a jolt in her stomach, their eyes met and she frowned at him.

"What is that?"

"It's the bond, you must feel some little part of it still. Please Lily try and remember."

She felt a calming warmth that spread through her stomach, tentatively she took hold of his hand and gasped as lust hit her stomach.

"Why don't I remember you? If you're my mate why don't I know who you are?"

"Because he took your memory from you, he wants you for himself and he thinks this way you'll choose him instead."

"Who did?"

"My brother."

She moved closer to him kneeling and reached out to touch his cheek, he put his hands on her waist and pulled her closer to him. Her eyes widened before darkening as she felt his hard cock press against her.

"I'm not going to lose you again Lily, please try and remember me."

He slid his hands down to rest on her curved ass and pulled her hips closer watching her eyes close in pleasure, he moved the fabric away from her skin moving his hands up her body until his thumbs bracketed the underside of her breasts. 

"I'm sorry," she took a deep breath and pushed his chest softly. "I don't know you."

Ryan felt his anger boil in his stomach and stood from the bed. "I'll fucking kill him." He ran from the room and down the stairs.

"Wait!" Her shout followed him but he ignored it instead listening until he heard a match striking, skidding to halt in the kitchen he watched his brother, he leant back in his chair lighting his cigarette, he had taken off the jacket of his suit and looked at a pocket watch.

"Took longer than I thought," he blew the smoke in a perfect ring and watched Ryan. "How is she little brother?"

"How could you do this to me?" Ryan took another step forward. "I'm your fucking brother how could you fucking do this to me?"

"Because this makes it fair Thronnes, she was never yours to just take." Sammael voice was growing angry but his face remained calm as he continued to smoke. "you were never meant to just take her then hide her from us for all this time. She was ours just as much as yours."

"So what now you want to try this again? Should I call Abdiel get him involved as well? That would make it fair wouldn't it?"

Sammael stood, he was a couple of inches taller than Ryan but Ryan was broader, they squared up to each other before a woman's voice made them turn.

"What the hell are you two doing now?" Lucy stood in the doorway her arms folded and a scowl on her face. "I swear to God I will smack you both silly if you wake me up one more time."

"He's given her Lucifers Sleep." Ryan spat the words his fists clenched so tight the bones cracked. 

"What's that?" Lucy and the brothers turned, she stood behind them having changed into jeans and sweatshirt, her eyes met Lucy's before moving Sammael's. "Who are you people?"

"Lily it's me," Lucy frowned.

"You're an Elf?" Lily smiled still completely ignorant of who the woman was. "I've never met one before."

"Ryan what's happened to her?"

Sammael sat back down lighting another cigarette, he hadn't taken his eyes of Lily and motioned for her to sit across from him, she did and he lit another for her and placed it between her lips.

"Lucifers Sleep is an enchantment used by Angels, it takes the memories of one meaning they cannot remember their mate, often they replace them with other memories that will make the effected hate their mate. I didn't do that I merely made her forget, about all of us. Ryan took her from us when he had no right, it was meant to be her choice not his to make for her, I'm simply allowing her that choice now."

"So what happens next?" Lucy still looked confused but pressed on.

"We let her decide, we tell her about us, everything about us and she finds the one she bonds to," he watched her face carefully.

"What happens to you?" Lucy asked Ryan.

"Our bond has been renounced, I'm nothing to her any more. This will have weakened Aaron, he wont wake for at least a day, it takes a lot out of a Follower if the bond is renounced." Ryan still clutched his chest feeling the aching hole where she once was.

"So I know you all?" Lily looked around the room as they all nodded. "How?"

Sammael looked to Lucy. "Would you like to go first Elf?"

Lucy sat next to her and gently placed her hand on her arm. "I'm Lucy, I've known you almost three years now. I met Ryan years ago after my family was killed in the war with the Angels, he took me in gave me a job and a place to stay and I've been with him ever since. We came with you here just over a year ago."

"We?"

"Me and Aaron, he's Ryan's Follower."

Lily nodded and looked to Ryan who smiled sadly. "I was born Thronnes, I lived as an Angel for five hundred years until the Great War when I chose my place and fought with the Demons. When they fell I was banished and turned Fallen. I was fought in the Pits as punishment for betraying the Angels and when they finally released me I went to America, I met you there in 1867. You ran from me for years, you thought if you stayed away the Angels wouldn't try and hunt us and then seventeen months ago we completed the Kundii and had a child."




Tormented Ch. 16



"We have a child?" Ryan nodded and she turned to Lucy. "Do we?"

"Yeah, a daughter Mae. She's upstairs."

Lily looked down at her lap taking it all in, the ring on her left hand caught her attention and she looked back at Ryan. "Did you give me this?"

"Yeah, we're meant to get married in a month." Ryan bit the nail of his thumb. "Until this happened."

She watched him intently for a moment, something stirred in the back of her mind and she fought to keep hold of it but it slipped away before she could recognise it. Instead she look to Sammael.

"You're his brother?" Sammael nodded. "You look alike, same eyes."

"I'm older and I was told you would be raised as an Angel and I would be your mate. Because all of us claimed you we were kept from ageing to be able to know you, but in the war your father fought alongside your mother and the Demons meaning you were raised Fallen and when you met Thronnes, a Demon to any eye, you didn't know of your Angel ancestors. Do you remember anything about them?"

"I know my father is an Angel but I've never met him. My mum told me he left to keep us safe and if he wasn't around the Angels wouldn't try and find us. Do you know him? Where he is?"

"He's dead," she looked to Ryan as he spoke. "Your mother too, she turned, something happened to her. She killed your father and took our daughter, she was going to kill you too and take your place but you stopped her from hurting us."

"I killed her?"

"You had no choice." Lucy touched her arm comfortingly.

Lily nodded and looked back to Sammael. "You said all of you claimed me. How many of there were you?"

"Three, another Angel claimed you. You knew him as a child but never felt any bond to him other than friendship. Its not him."

"Have I ever felt anything towards you?"

"You met me for the first time last night, I never had any choice in the matter until now. I just want to know if you would have chosen differently if you had known me before any of this."

She was silent for a moment before standing and walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Ryan stepped forward but she held up a hand.

"I'm OK its just a lot to process. And I want to meet my daughter."

She left the room and Sammael sighed. "I'm sorry brother, but I have to know."

"How could you do this?"

"Wouldn't you have done the same?" Sammael's voice sounded sad.

"I love her."

"I love her as well."

"She's mine."

"Stop it both of you." Lucy stood and looked from one to the other. "She isn't anyone's, not now not ever. This is a shitty situation but its happened now and you're both going to have to deal with the consequences. She's learning everything over again and this time she'll know everything, whoever she chooses will be her decision and only hers." She looked to Ryan. "I'm sorry Ryan but from what he's said she deserves to know whether it was meant to be you. I hope to god it is you but you have to do what is right for her, whether its you or him."

She left the room and the brothers looked at each other.

"I'm sorry it had to be this way Thronnes, I just had to know."

"If it is you promise me you'll look after her and Mae. But don't let them forget me."

"Same with me brother."

Sammael stood and spat on his hand holding it out, Ryan smirked and spat on his own and they shook.

"Mum always thought that was so gross."

Sammael laughed and handed him a cigarette, Ryan took a bottle from the counter and they sat at the table, he opened the bottle of scotch and poured two glasses before looking his brother up and down.

"What's with the suit?"

Sammael drank and winced as the alcohol burnt his throat. "You know the Angels, they're convinced fashion was born and died in the 1920's, its still the only thing they wear unless their down from upstairs." He straightened the waistcoat and smirked. "You don't like it?"

"I never said that." Ryan drank and blew the smoke in a ring towards the ceiling. "When I was in the Pits, you came to watch me every night. I saw you." Sammael nodded. "Why?"

"You're my little brother, whether I agree with what you did or not I didn't want you to get hurt. I came to keep an eye on you."

"You never did help."

"You never needed help. I was always so proud."

"Careful, it almost sounds like you missed me."

"I did, so did mum."

"I'm guessing dad wasn't all the bothered?"

Sammael shrugged. "You know what he's like, he thought you went against God doing what you did. You were the promised child, he thought you'd go so far."

"I've done alright," he looked up at the ceiling, they could hear Lily's soft footsteps in the room above and her voice as she spoke to the child. "What happens now?"

"You know how this goes, its like a fucking fairytale. If you're her real mate then when she kisses you she'll remember everything, if it's me then we wont know until she feels the pull, I'll need to speak with her."

"We should give her some time, let her work through everything before we do anything else."

"Very well brother," he pushed his empty glass across the table. "Then I'll take another."

*

Lily stood in the bedroom she had woken in, staring out of the window she watched the sun move over the hills her head swimming with what she had been told. A small knock on the door made her jump and she turned as Sammael entered.

"How are you feeling?" His low voice made her stomach clench and she couldn't drag her eyes from his.

"I've been better. This has been a weird day."

"I know, I'm sorry I just had to be sure."

"But how can you be sure, what happens next?"

He closed the door behind him and downstairs Ryan heard it, standing from the table he left the house unable to sit and listen to what might happen. Upstairs Sammael took a step further into the room, Lily felt rooted to the spot unable to move instead watched as he came closer.

"You need to touch me Lily, to feel me. You'll know the bond if it is there for us, you'll feel it then you can tell me if its me or not. I just want to know."

He reached out and took hold of her hand, she gasped as a jolt of lust hit low in her abdomen, he pulled her close and placed a hand on her lower back. His fingers found her pulse and he smiled.

"You react to me."

"What does that mean?"

"Nothing yet, you'll know if its me." He gently lifted her into his arms and sat her on the bed, her small hands held onto his shirt and he brought their lips close together, sliding his hands under her sweatshirt he felt the warmth of her soft skin and pulled her closer. "Please let it be me." He leant forward and kissed her, she moaned quietly and her lips opened. He deepened the kiss and dug his fingers into her skin bruising her, she could feel his hard cock pressing against her through their clothes and she gasped.

An image flashed across her eyes and she pulled back suddenly. He watched her with a confused look.

"What's wrong?"

She shook her head sending her long hair flying over her shoulders. "I'm sorry Sammael."

"It's not me?" He nodded and tucked a stray curl behind her ear. "You're sure?"

"I'm sorry."

He watched her unable to wrench his eyes away, instead he leant forward and kissed her again. "Go to him."

He allowed her to slide from the floor but she kept hold of his hand for a moment. "I'm sorry, maybe if I hadn't have met him first it would have been different."

"No child, it was always going to be him." He managed a sad smile and she turned and ran from the room, outside she ran through the hills until she saw him, he didn't turn until she touched his shoulder making him jump. He opened his mouth to speak but she shook her head and placed a finger on his lips.

"Shh. I saw you, I saw you Ryan. Only you." She reached onto her toes and placed her lips on his, a hot jolt hit her chest and she gasped. "I remember," her eyes opened and she stared into his eyes. "I remember you."

She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him again, he lifted her into his arms and sank to his knees holding her close.

"Thank Lucifer." He spoke against her lips and felt a tear fall from her cheek to his, she ripped his t-shirt away from his body as he unzipped her sweatshirt and pushed it from her shoulders, he pulled their jeans away and thrust up burying himself inside her and groaning at her wet heat. He slid one hand up her back and curled it over her shoulder so he could pull her down to meet the thrusts of his hips, she cried out as he hit deep inside her sending pleasure and pain through her body. She tangled her fingers in his hair and yanked his head back, taking over the speed of their thrusts rolling her hips slowly the tight walls of her pussy gripping him tightly, she took his earlobe between her teeth and he felt her warm breath against his skin. 

She took hold of one of his hands and trailed it up her body to cover one breast, his rough skin brushed over her sensitive nipple and she sighed in pleasure, he dropped his head to the other breast and nipped at the skin before circling the nipple with his tongue. She tightened her grip on his hair keeping him still while speeding up her thrusts allowing herself to rise up until only the head of his cock remained in her before sinking back down and grinding her hips against his.

"Oh fuck Lily," he spoke through gritted teeth and his fingers pinched her nipple hard, he felt her pussy spasm milking his cock and he growled his eyes flashing, turning red. He threw her backwards onto the hard ground and he rested his weight on his forearms either side of her head, he took hold of her wrists holding them to the ground tightly and he pounded into her. He wasn't gentle, he wasn't sweet, he fucked her hard driving himself as deep inside her as he could with each thrust and she cried out loudly. He looked into her eyes which had turned to the inky black pools and her teeth sharpened into pointed fangs, he scratched at her neck softly with his own and she leant her head backwards baring her throat, submitting completely.

She wrapped her strong legs around his waist and he felt her whole body shaking against him, he held her wrists tighter resting his forehead against hers and staring into her eyes. She begged silently and he knew she was close, kissing her he took her lips between his teeth biting gently before trailing his lips back to her neck, tearing into the soft skin of her throat he tasted her blood as it poured into his mouth and she arched her back her mouth falling open silently screaming as her orgasm tore through her body. The walls of her tight pussy massaged his thick length and he bit harder as he came inside her, filling her with his hot seed.

He rolled off her laying on his back on the grass and they breathed heavily, she was afraid to touch him but he reached out and pulled her to his side.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you." She said nothing but curled herself against his body. "I just didn't know how to."

"It's OK, I know why you did it. Just promise me you'll never keep anything from me again."

He laughed quietly and stroked her hair. "What do we do now?"

"We go back and we find out exactly what your brother knows. If the Angels are really coming for us we have to know everything or at least as much as we can." She pushed herself to her feet and dressed quickly, his t-shirt was shredded but he pulled on his jeans and they walked to the house. She brought Mae down and found them in the kitchen, Aaron had joined them and was speaking with Lucy, Sammael and Ryan. They had filled him in and she sat down at the table holding Mae close to her chest, Ryan sat beside her and looked across the table to his brother.

"What do you know?"

"The Angels are massing an army. They know about you Lily and about your parents, they've been hunting you a long time but you were never in one place long enough for them to track you. Then you mated and every Angel can find you, they wanted to persuade you to come home but I assume you wont go quietly?"

"Like hell I will!"

He smiled. "Then you're going to have to be ready to fight for your lives. If they cant have you they will want you dead, they are afraid of what you might do if you remain living as a Demon."

"What do they think I'll do?"

"They don't know, they just know that you living as a Demon is dangerous."

"When will this happen?" Ryan spoke.

"I don't know, they might send someone else to speak with you but I doubt it. I don't know how much help I can offer you."

"I'm your brother Sammael, you have to help us."

"It's because you're my brother that I cant help you!"

"What are you talking about?" Ryan's voice was growing angry and he slammed his fist down on the table. "You come and tell us this but then refuse to help us."

"The only reason you're alive now is because of me! Do you know what they wanted to do to you when you sided with the Demons? Our father offered you to them as an apology for what you did, you were going to be killed Thronnes and not quickly, they would have made you suffer. You know its not just Demons that take souls as payment, you were allowed to live because they took mine. Sure it wasn't a good life for a while but now you have Lilith and Mae and you have me to thank for it you ungrateful shit. I cant help you because they wont let me, I don't know if you have any idea of how it feels for someone to have complete control over you but its not fucking easy. It was painful enough coming here to warn you I cant do anything else."

They were silent watching the Angel and he shook his head. "You know what I'm sorry I even brought it up," he stood and walked from the room and the back door slammed behind him, Lily touched Ryan's arm. 

"Did you really not know?"

"I had no idea, I didn't know about any of it." He rubbed his hands down his face. "Fuck."

Standing he followed his brother, he had lit a cigarette and stared out over the hills of Purgatory. Ryan came to stand at his side and tried to think of the right words to say. "I didn't know."

"Of course you didn't fucking know. I never wanted you to know."

"Who is it?"

Sammael frowned slightly at the question. "What do you mean?"

"The Angel who has your soul. Who is it?"

"Adonael. One of the Archangels. He's dangerous Thronnes, if he knew I was here he wouldn't wait for Lily to give an answer, he would come and take her."

"How did you come here without him knowing?"

"He will know, he wont know what I've told you or that I've seen you but he'll know I was here. He wont be happy about it either."

"What will he do to you."

Sammael finally looked at Ryan and he saw fear in the green depths. "That's not for you to worry about little brother." He threw the cigarette butt to the floor and looked back to the house. "Look after them. I'll do all that I can to keep them safe when the Angels come but I don't know how much I will be able to do." He held out his hand and Ryan took it, they shook before Ryan pulled his brother into a tight hug.

"Please be careful, I want Mae to know her uncle."

"You don't have to worry about me." Sammael tried to smile before a sharp wind stirred and he was gone. Ryan stared out over the rolling hills of Purgatory. His brother had sold his soul for him, everything he had today was thanks to Sammael and he hadn't even known. He rubbed his hand over his face and sighed.

Back in the house Lily turned and looked up at him with worry in her eyes, standing she walked to him and laid her head on his chest, he wrapped an arm around her waist and stroked Mae's soft hair while the baby slept. Lily looked up and kissed his chin. "Come on." She lead him upstairs and Lucy and Aaron watched in silence as they went before he turned to her.

"Well now what do we do?" He sounded lost.

"We go to war." Her voice was hard and he touched her arm, she jumped away from him.

"Luce," he turned her to look at him. "Lucy it's OK."

"No its not," her blue eyes filled with tears and she shook her head sending her red hair flying over her shoulders. "It's not alright, you know nothing of what is coming. I cant fight them again, I wont lose you. I've lost too many already and I cant lose you, I cant lose Ryan and I cant lose Lily. I don't want to lose anyone."

He stood and pulled her into his arms, she fought for a moment pushing him away until he lifted her and held her tightly. She gave up and wrapped herself around him her hands clutching at the neck of his t-shirt and her face buried in his neck, he walked through to their bedroom and lay her gently on the bed. He pushed her silk nightdress up her body and slid down pulling her long legs over his shoulders and kissing her stomach, she lay back against the pillows her arm covering her face and waited holding her breath to see what he would do. He turned his head and kissed the inside of her thigh before trailing his lips down, brushing over her pussy she gasped then moaned when he repeated this movement down her other leg. He kissed her pussy and she moaned looking down her body at him, he grinned and kept his eyes on hers as he kissed her again, flicking his tongue over she clit she moaned and pulled him closer with her feet on his broad back.

He gave in falling on her and licking and sucking at her little clit until she trembled violently under him, he held her hips down against the bed and slid one finger into her wet heat curling upwards to brush the sweet spot inside her. Her hands curled into the sheets beneath her head and she arched her back pushing up against his mouth and he added a second finger hearing her cry out and she thrust against his mouth. Her lithe body squirmed beneath him and her muscles tensed as she came hard around his fingers, he slid up the bed thrusting his tongue into her mouth letting her taste herself and pushed his jeans down and kicked them away, teasing her entrance with the head of his cock he pushed inside her, stretching his tight pussy over his thick length and she clutched at his shoulder her nails digging into his dark skin.

He thrust slowly, teasing her and pushing deep holding still and allowing her to grind against him before pulling back and thrusting quickly only the tip inside her. Her breathing was ragged against his neck and he slid his hands under her to cup her round ass pulling her closer and thrusting hard and deep. Her cries grew louder and she pushed her hips upwards meeting each thrust driving him deeper, pain lancing the pleasure each time he hit against her cervix as she bottomed out but needing to feel him as deep as she could. Her orgasm grew and she bit down on his earlobe muffling her cry as she came again her pussy convulsing around his cock.

He held her to his chest and crawled up the bed, sitting with his back against the pillows he moved her against him, his fingers dug into the pale skin of her ass and he pounded into her. Her head fell backwards and he kissed her throat, sucking and marking the skin before trailing his lips down her chest and taking a nipple into his warm mouth, moving one hand up he teased the nipple of her other breast with his fingers pinching gently and she dug her nails deeper into his back, raking across the skin and feeling blood pool in her wake. Her hips jerked against his and she fucked herself on his thick cock, he hit against the bundle of nerves inside her each time and her breathing sped up as her orgasm grew. He bit down on her nipple and a hoarse scream ripped from her throat as she came again, her pussy quivered around him and she dropped her head to rest on his shoulder, shuddering in the aftermath of her orgasm and she felt him still hard inside her.

Sliding down the bed she knelt between his legs and licked down his cock tasting her juices on him before taking him into her mouth, pushing her head down and taking him down her throat. He groaned and threaded his fingers through her soft hair and thrusting up into her mouth, she moaned and with a growl he threw her back to the bed. Pulling her onto all fours in front of him he slammed back into her tight pussy and taking hold of her hair pulled her up so her back was against his chest and began to thrust hard into her. Sliding his free hand down her stomach he found her clit and stroked with his finger, biting her neck he pounded into her, her nails curled into his thighs and she pushed backwards meeting his thrusts until she came again her mouth open but no sound coming out. With a growl he slammed into her again and she felt his hot cum filling her ravaged pussy, he sat back against the pillows and she curled in his lap and wrapped her arms around his waist. He stoked down her back and tucked a stray lock of red hair behind her ear.




Tormented Ch. 16



"It's going to be OK Luce, I promise."

A loud knock on the door made them jump and he leapt from the bed, pulling his jeans on he opened the door and saw Ryan and Lily coming down the stairs, Lucy dressed quickly in her silk nightdress and came to stand behind him.

"I'm guessing you're not expecting anyone?" Ryan asked before sighing. "Stay here." He and Aaron walked to the door and pulled it open, three people stood there. A tall red haired man with sharp green eyes held up a white haired man, Ryan looked at the Demon feeling a sense of dread in his stomach. A young girl stood on the other side of the Demon and he scented the air, she smelt different, she was part Demon but the rest he was unsure of. She had long black hair that fell in a shining wave down to her waist and white eyes and black pupils, her skin was pale and she wore black leggings, a white t-shirt and black trainers.

"Ryan who is it?" Lily came down the stairs and looked over the three people stood at her door.

"Lilith?" The girl spoke, her voice held an exotic accent and Lily frowned.

"How do you know my name? Who are you?"

The girl stepped forward. "I'll tell you everything but first please, you need to help my brother." Her eyes pleaded with them and they could see her desperation.

Lucy beckoned them in. "Bring him through here," the red haired man helped the Demon through to the living room and laid him on the sofa, the rest followed them through and Lily looked to the strange girl, she was a head taller than Lily and looked down into the Demons warm dark eyes.

"I hear you have Angels after you?" The girl spoke and Lily nodded in confusion.

"How do you know that? Who are you?"

The girl took a knife from a holster on her thigh. "I'm Daida and right now, if you want to survive this war, I'm the best chance you've got."
