Chapter 15: The Mark

Leviathan

The moment she hit my face I lost it. I am well known for my abundance of control, but I lost every ounce in that moment. It’s like something took over me.

I stand up quickly, slamming Asa against the shower wall.

“Yes, Levi. Show me who’s alpha.” Her voice doesn’t even sound like her own. It’s primitive and controlling. I can’t control myself.

I smash my mouth into hers and devour her lips. Biting them. Suckling them. Forcing my tongue to invade her mouth and take control. Hers fights back for control.

I pick her up, and she wraps her legs around my waist as I make my way into the bedroom and toss her onto the bed.

I bend down and rip her shorts off of her. Her arousal is like a drug to my brain. I pull her legs apart and dive in, lapping every ounce of her liquid heat.

Asa moans in appreciation, and I start to nibble her clit and slide my tongue into her oh-so-ready entrance.

Her hand makes its way to my hair, and she yanks me away from my feast, up to meet her mouth. She flips me on my back like I am a feather.

I have never seen such strength before in my existence. I cannot even try to fight back. My body won’t let me.

“I need you ~now~!” she growls.

She yanks my pants off of me and climbs back on top. Her beauty is radiating, and this dominance is completely different from what I saw and felt last night.

There is more power behind this. It’s like a side of her, previously caged, has escaped.

She places my hardened member at her entrance.

“Take it slow, Asa. This will be painful.”

It’s like she doesn’t even hear my words as she plunges my cock deep inside of her. Her head flies back, and she moans my name.

She pauses and lets herself stretch around me. Getting used to the feeling.

Her head dips down, and she opens her eyes. All violet is now gone. Her eyes are now an icy, glowing blue; they almost look white.

They are filled with wild lust, and I can smell that something in her is changing. She is still there but different.

She begins to move her hips, riding on top of me. Grinding me deeper inside of her, painfully slow. Her moans show no pain, just blissful rhythm.

In that instant, I flip her over again and begin to tease her neck with my tongue. Still, I thrust into her at her previous rhythm. Slowly I begin adding speed.

“Harder, Levi! I need you. More!” she moans.

Like a madman, I plunge myself deeper into her. Her walls squeeze me so tight. I assault her body with my own. Taking no prisoners. I continue to take her.

~“Mark her now!”~

I let my canines extend, and I graze them over her neck near her shoulder where I will mark her. Making sure she knows what I’m about to do.

“Do it,” she moans, still moving her hips to meet mine.

AsaLynn

I feel his fangs enter my neck, and the power is overwhelming. I can feel his body grow and the bond attaching between us both.

I am hit with a flood of emotions that are not my own. Within a blink they stop, but the buzzing of energy continues.

I feel more powerful and stronger than ever before. The mating bond spiders through my very existence. Connecting me to my mate for eternity.

He removes his fangs and continues to pump in and out of me. Hitting a spot deep within over and over again as I feel my own orgasm build.

I bend to him, and my teeth sink into him.

With my mark, the bond completes, and my body explodes into an earth-shattering orgasm.

Trembling under his weight, I feel him explode inside of me, marking my core with his juice. Coating every inch of me inside. Filling me.

Once we ride the orgasmic wave, Levi slowly lifts off of me and moves next to me, scooping me up into his embrace. All traces of my heat are relieved.

He gazes into my eyes and speaks.

“Your eyes. They changed back.”

Confused, I respond, “What do you mean? My wolf didn’t take over. I would have felt that.”

“No, my goddess, your eyes turned piercing blue and glowed.”

“Blue? Glowed? What are you talking about, Levi?”

I don’t understand. My eyes are violet. I mean, I know they are different, but I have never met any wolf with blue eyes.

I definitely have not heard of someone’s eyes glowing.

Flora has green eyes with golden flakes, but she is a witch. Maybe she would know something about what he is talking about.

We lie like this for the remainder of the day.

I tell him about my father and my pack. A little bit of my history, which he knew some of from his prior experience with my dad before I was born.

He told me he never met my mother. Then he told me about his life before he was turned. We just talked like this about everything and nothing until late after the sun went down.

We’d just started to drift asleep when the door slams open, causing Levi to jump up into fighting stance. I can’t help but giggle at what I see.

“It’s 12:01 a.m. ~Happy birthday, Asa~!!!” Flora says, holding a cupcake with a candle on it. Zade is standing next to her, looking guilty.

“Sorry, man. You try to control her,” Zade says with a smile on his face and a hand rubbing the back of his neck.

“It’s your birthday?” Levi looks at me with his eyebrow arched.

“Yeah. The big two-double-oh.”

“About that. I talked to my mom. She believes that’s why you went into heat. If he didn’t mark you by your birthday, the bond would have severed,” Flora says nonchalantly.

My eyes bulge. “Well, I guess I dodged a bullet.”

“Hey, the guys outside the pack house stopped trying to break the door down, soooo, he fucked you? Orrrr maybe you fucked him?”

Flora giggles as she raises her eyebrows up and down. “So it’s all good.”

Zade’s face pinkens. Poor guy is in for one hell of a ride with her.

“Girllllll, let me see your mark!!! All I got was a moon as per usual, but you’re an alpha. And you were marked by Mr. Macho over here, so yours has gotta be awesome!”

I honestly forgot that part. Normal wolves get a unique moon brand. It looks similar to a black tattoo.

If you mate with an alpha, you get some sort of badass mark that varies in style, shape, symbol, and meaning. It’s a way the Moon Goddess shows you your path.

I look over at Levi’s neck and see his. It’s of two wolves standing under a crown. It’s beautiful and takes up his entire shoulder.

Oddly enough, it’s not all black. One of the wolves is blue.

Flora sees his mark and looks confused.

“Why is your mark half blue? The Moon Goddess’s marks are supposed to be black as night, representing the dark when the moon rises.”

Levi walks over to a mirror and touches it so gently. It seems as if he is afraid it will vanish.

He stares at his mark and turns his head. “This doesn’t make any sense. I get the meaning, but why is there color?”

He walks over to me and swipes my long hair off of my neck and stares at it. Flora gasps along with Zade.

“Oh my goddess! Asa, your mark!”

The look in their eyes scares me, and I run over to look at mine. My mouth drops. I can’t believe my eyes.

My mark is not just a mark: it takes up the entirety of my shoulder, part of my back, and runs down to my elbow. How the hell did we not notice this?

I mean, I know I have really long hair and I was under the blankets, but it’s fucking huge.

Upon further inspection, I see the picture. It’s a large blue wolf standing before the sea. Behind it stands a forest of blue and black wolves.

“What does this mean?” I look to Flora and Levi.

“Uh, I don’t know, but I’m fucking jelly! That is beautiful!” Flora slugs Zade. “Why can’t mine look that badass!”

Zade laughs and kisses her forehead. “Because anything more would have made you too beautiful to walk this earth.”

My heart melts at his words, and I shoot a joking death-glare at Levi. He laughs and slugs Zade.

“Okay, well, happy birthday. I’ll let you get back to riding his hog.” She winks, sets down the cupcake, and begins to walk out.

“Oh, and I’ll call up my mom and see what she says about y’all’s marks. Later, bitch!”

I can’t help the smile that forms. That woman is one of the best things to ever come into my life. I’m so happy I got stuck next to her on that bus ride.

The door shuts, and Levi looks over at me. His eyes go dark again. Instantly, I’m wet and ready. I’m completely and utterly ~his~.
