Chapter 21

The Lycan’s Queen Book 1 – Chapter 21 Adonis growled at the man, “How the fuck did you get in?”

To my surprise, this man didn’t look scared or even fazed that Adonis was a few seconds away from losing control. Instead, he looked like he was enjoying it.

That was confirmed by his smirk, and it wasn’t the sexy smirk; it was the terrifying one that made you feel uneasy.

“I just came to see your mate. Calm down.” This man had no shame.

Adonis’s body was very tense, and Lexi grabbed onto me, probably nervous in case Adonis lost control.

I noticed Niya standing to the side with a confused expression on her face. Luckily she was away from all the drama. She’s got enough to deal with.

The last thing I need today is for Adonis to lose control in front of this idiot, who obviously has it out for him.

“I’m the king, and I decide what scum can enter my home, and you are not welcome. So, take your annoying niece and leave.” Adonis gritted his teeth.

Niece? Wait… don’t tell me his niece is Savanah?

“You call my niece annoying? Savanah doesn’t deserve those harsh words.” The man looked offended.

You know what, I can see the resemblance. Both annoying fools who don’t know their place, and both have that look in their eyes that they are up to no good.

Well, the bonus of this dickhead being here is that he can take his bitchy niece back home so I don’t have to deal with her.

One less stress on my plate. Plus, Savanah has long overstayed her welcome, if you ask me.

“I don’t need to explain my choice of words to you, Mark.” Adonis was clenching his fists. That was not good.

“Well I heard about the attack on vour mate How someone managed to sneak in and hang the body of a dead child above her. Where were you? I heard you were in your study, away from your mate. If you aren’t capable of protecting your own mate from anger, then you certainly are not capable of running a kingdom.”

Oh heck no. Someone needs to tell this Mark that if he continues, I’ll kick him to the curb.

How dare he insult my mate like that? And does he truly believe I will just let him get away with this?

I narrowed my eyes and stood in front of Adonis. He wouldn’t hurt me, and this way he would remain calm.

“Who do you think you are, telling Adonis what he is and isn’t capable of? He’s ruled without a mate for ten years and has done a damn good job. Your opinion is unwanted and a pile of shit because you’re just upset that your niece didn’t get to be Adonis’s mate. Now, it is time for you and your receding hair line to get the fuck out of here. Oh, and don’t forget your whining niece.” I smiled sweetly at the end.

I heard Lexi laugh quietly, and some of the guards cracked a smile. I looked at one of them, who seemed to get the message and hurried off to get the annoying scum out of here for good.

Mark stood there with his mouth hanging open, probably shocked because no woman has ever spoken to him like that.

“Listen here, I don’t take orders from women,” Mark scoffed.

I smirked and replied, “Never thought I would use my title, but now seems like the perfect time because it means I can bring you down off of your high horse. Get out of my palace before I make you. It’s the queen’s orders. You tried your luck with your niece, and thankfully it didn’t work, so it is time for you to leave.”

Adonis placed his hand on my shoulder, so I turned around to see his massive smirk.

“My queen has spoken; you know where the door is.”

“What are you doing? Get your hands off me,” a familiar voice yelled.

God, her voice was so annoying.

Savanah was brought down by the guards and was clearly unimpressed at how she was being treated.

“Dimitri, tell them to take their hands off of me. Look at what they are doing,” Savanah complained.

“You see, Savanah, you have overstayed your welcome. But don’t worry, your beloved uncle has come to pick you up and take you home because this was never your home, and it will never be your home.” I motioned to Mark “Uncle Mark?” Savanah looked shocked.

Adonis didn’t waste any time before picking me up and calling to Gabe and Evan who just joined. “Get them out of here.”

“Oh man. Why do I always miss the fun?” Evan complained, causing me to giggle.

Adonis carried me all the way up to our temporary room and placed me on the bed.

“Do you know how incredibly sexy that was?” He looked at me with pride.

“No, but looking at your eyes, I can guess that you found it very sexy.” I laughed.

“You told Mark to leave, and you used your title against him. Little one, that was fucking amazing.”

Adonis shook his head in disbelief.

“Thank you. But I had to do it. That idiot was saying all sorts of crap about you.” I rolled my eyes.

“Every day you surprise me.” Adonis smiled at me.

“Yeah, well after the day we have had, I think a good surprise was in order,” I replied.

Suddenly the atmosphere changed. It was like something clicked in Adonis because he now looked like he wanted to devour me.

“You’re right. After the events of today, I need a distraction,” Adonis said, smirking My heart was racing as I looked at the familiar sight of desire swirling in his eyes.

“But… but now isn’t time. There’s so much going on….,” I trailed off.

“Exactly why I need a distraction, and I believe I told you I want a taste. I haven’t forgotten, little one, and now seems like the perfect time.”

Adonis looked like he was enjoying my flustered state.

“Now really isn’t the time, Adonis,” I tried again.

Of course my words fell on deaf ears as Adonis came toward me with a predatory look in his eyes.

Well shit, there was no Savanah to interrupt now. Adonis was really going to get his taste.

My eyes looked toward the window. Maybe I could jump out? Now, it wasn’t because I didn’t want Adonis to have a taste, but if he wanted a distraction, I couldn’t make it easy for him.

Plus, there was a thrill I got from making him chase me. It made it more fun.

“Have you locked the door?” I asked.

Adonis’s smirk got bigger. “Seems like someone is ready.”

As he turned to lock the door, I jumped up and ran toward the window. Adrenaline filled my body as I opened the window and stuck one leg out.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Adonis caught me.

I was now sitting on the window, with one leg in and one leg out. Great going, Aarya. I was too slow for Adonis.

“Do you think I’d let you leave without getting my taste?” He licked his lips.

“You wanted a distraction, so I’m giving you one.” I fluttered my eyelashes.

“Don’t even think about jumping, little one. Come inside so I can have my taste.” Adonis’s eyes were locked onto my legs.

This time I smirked, even though he couldn’t see.

“Where’s the fun in that?” I said.

Before he could say anything, I swung my leg over and jumped. Thank fuck I was a lycan now because I landed on the ground safely.

Adonis’s head popped out the window, and he growled.

“So, you want to play. Let’s play, but you better run fast because I am hungry.”

I shivered seeing that predatory look in his eyes. Then my eyes widened in shock when his words sank in. Fuck, now what?

My eyes darted around the front of the palace, and I ran. Lycan speed helped me go further into the gardens. It wasn’t long before his loud growl was heard, causing me to run faster.

I found an old shed covered by trees. I decided it was the best hiding place, for now.

Adonis would find me in here. I needed to ditch these clothes, but how?

I popped my head out and smelled Adonis’s scent very close by. Okay, time to leave. He was clearly very fast, and me angering him probably fueled him to find me faster.

I ran even further and stopped at a massive tree. If I could climb this, it would be the perfect hiding place.

There was only a slight problem with my genius idea; I had never climbed a tree in my life.

Oh well, there’s always a time and place to learn new things. Although this may have been the place, it certainly wasn’t the time, especially with Adonis hot on my heels.

Taking a deep breath, I was about to jump when a gush of air knocked me off my feet Groaning, I tried to get up but found myself held down by none other than Adonis.

“Reminds me of how I first found you,” he whispered in my ear.

Shit, he found me. Why didn’t I hear him or even smell him? I needed to learn to focus on my senses more.

“Oh, right, because the first time you found me you knocked me to the ground?” I rolled my eyes.

“I only did that this time because someone has a bad habit of running away.” Adonis kissed my neck, causing me to shiver.

He stood up and pulled me up with him. God, he looked so hot when he stared at me like that.

He sniffed the air, and suddenly the atmosphere was tense.

“I can smell vour desire.” Adonis’s voice became huskv.

I swallowed the lump in my throat but didn’t say anything; I didn’t trust my voice. Adonis was going to devour me now. There was nothing I could do, but I knew I didn’t want to do anything.

Adonis groaned and said, “I can’t wait any longer.”

He didn’t waste a second before picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder.

“Adonis,” I gasped.

He didn’t even respond before running back to the palace. The surroundings passed by in a blur, and my heart was racing.

Adonis made it back in record time and walked to the room. I saw Niya, who was in the kitchen, and she laughed.

Wow, she could have helped me out of this situation, but no, she was enjoying me suffering Adonis opened the door to the room and locked it before throwing me on the bed “You’ve been a naughty girl; I think it’s time for your punishment.” Adonis stalked toward me.

He grabbed my ankles and pulled me toward him. Adonis took off his shirt, allowing me to ogle at his delicious body.

I couldn’t wait to run my tongue along his abs. Wait, what? I can’t believe I just thought that.

He bent down and ripped my top in half, causing me to gasp and cover my chest with my hands.

“Don’t you dare cover yourself. Don’t deny me what is mine.” Adonis removed my hands and held them above my head.

“Fuck, you’re gorgeous,” he groaned, letting go of my hands and trailing kisses down my body.

With one move, Adonis pulled off my bottoms and panties, leaving me completely bare.

Again, I attempted to cover myself up, my nerves getting the better of me. This time Adonis held my hands above my head before I had the chance.

“Your nerves are getting the better of you,” Adonis whispered in my ear.

To distract me, his lips claimed mine in a hungry kiss. His tongue invaded my mouth, causing me to moan.

Holy shit, his kisses are something I would never tire of. When we broke apart, my mind was clouded with desire.

Adonis looked down at my chest, which was still covered with my bra. He looked back up at me with narrowed eyes. “If you try and cover yourself up again, I will tie you to this bed.”

My eyes widened, and I nodded my head. The last thing I wanted was to be tied up to the bed.

Adonis looked satisfied and ripped off my bra with one hand while I forced my hands not to move. And, let me tell you, that was hard.

I stared at Adonis’s body to try and distract myself, but my eyes made their way down to his crotch area, where his impressive bulge was getting bigger “Like what you see?” Adonis smirked, causing me to look up at him.

“Yes,” I replied “Good, because I can’t wait for you to see what’s underneath these jeans. But today is about you, not me.” Adonis winked.

Before I even knew what was happening, Adonis bent down and captured my breast in his mouth, causing me to moan.

Holy shit, that felt so good. I felt him smile against my breast as he continued his attack while caressing the other breast with his other hand.

I tried to keep my moans in, but Adonis squeezed my nipple hard, causing me to gasp, and looked up at me. “I want to hear all your moans, little one.

After he was satisfied with attacking both my breasts with his amazing mouth, he trailed kisses all down my body.

I knew where he was heading, and my heart was racing fast. Nerves? Yes, but mostly because I was excited.

No man had ever done anything to me, and I found myself feeling excited for the pleasure Adonis would give me.

“Someone’s excited,” Adonis breathed on my core, causing me to moan.

“I can see how wet vou are. So wet, and all for me.” Adonis groaned.

My mouth was dry, and I looked at him in anticipation. Can he please hurry up?

“I could make you wait like you made me wait by chasing you around the palace.” Adonis looked at me with amusement in his eyes.

“Are you serious? You weren’t lying here naked, Adonis. But thanks for the idea because next time I’m going to leave you all… holy shit.”

I didn’t even have a chance to finish my sentence because Adonis decided that was the perfect time to penetrate my core with his tongue.

Adonis’s tongue knew what it wanted as it attacked my core with rough strokes, which resulted in me being a moaning mess and holding onto the bedsheets.

“You taste so good, love. I can’t wait to taste your juices,” Adonis breathed on my core before continuing his attack.

This time his two fingers joined him, causing my back to arch. God, this was another thing I could never tire of.

His fingers pumped in and out of my core, faster and faster, while his mouth traveled upward and attached itself to one of my breasts. “Oh God, oh God.” I felt myself on the brink of an orgasm.

“Enjoying it?” Adonis smirked.

“Don’t stop,” I breathed, too engrossed in the pleasure.

His fingers continued their assault on me until I called out his name while I found my release.

Immediately Adonis went straight back down, and his tongue lapped up all the juices from my now very sore vagina.

“I think I found my new favorite dessert.” Adonis licked his lips as he crawled back to me.

I wanted to say something back, but instead I yawned. The events of this morning, plus what just happened, had clearly drained my energy supplies.

I felt heat rise up to my cheeks. Adonis chuckled before pulling my naked body against his.

“Sleep, little one. I’ll never leave your side again.”

This time I went to sleep, feeling safe in Adonis’s arms.
