108. Karina and Matteo

Karina heart was beating a mile when she felt another hand snaking around her waist. She tried to pry her captor’s hand away from her mouth all whilst holding back her small whimpers.

But her captor refused to let her go. Karina kicked her feet out and then managed to bite down on his palm, making him hiss at her.

“No! LL..Let go of me you jerk!”

“Hello trouble.” She recognised his voice.

“Mmm..Matteo?”

He finally let go of her and licked at his minor wound on his palm that she caused. He was lucky to have ran into her in the cave, and was relieved to know she was ok.

“How did you manage to escape?! Karina this is no time to be playing Karina the explorer!”

Suddenly Karina crashed into his warm chest making Matteo suddenly go quiet. She hugged him tightly out of relief.

“I’m sorry! I know, it was stupid for me to come out the plane, but I never planned on leaving the area. I just wanted some fresh air and I was doing just fine when ‘angry bird’ spotted me!”

He pulled her away and placed his hands on her hips looking down at her with a little confusion.

“What angry bird?”

Suddenly both of them heard a rustling sound and Karina quickly grabbed Matteo’s hand dragging him into the darkness.

“That red robed guy.” She quickly whispered.

They both watched from the darkness the Apsara standing near the edge of the cave and cursing out in French. He was pissed of that his air powers were down. He’d barely managed to fight of the other hounds with his life and he was about to leave the island with the rest, until he spotted the enemy.

This girl was no wolf. If she was, she would have already phased and tried to eat him. It was clear to him she was nothing more than a human. A human who was siding with the enemy.

She had managed to knock him out moments ago before she saw her escaping up here. Now it was his turn.

“Hey girl, I know you’re in there! Don’t make me come after you!” Shouted the man.

Karina sighed and came out from the darkness.

The Apsara then smiled seeing Karina.

“Leave me alone asshole.”

“And leave you all alone all here by yourself? Besides. I’m waiting for you to show me your wolf?”

Karina sighed and suddenly went down on all fours, glaring angrily at him.

For a few seconds the Apsara was afraid was she really about to crack her bones. He then stood his ground when Karina started to let out a weird growl.

The Apsara man raised his brow and started laughing at her.

“What was that?”

“A..a growl?” Karina slowly got up to her standing position, secretly knowing that another person was no doubt mock laughing in the shadows at her.

“You sounded like a cat just died.”

The Apsara then grabbed Karina’s wrist and looked down at her with a wicked intention. Karina was done giving all the warnings she possibly could to the mad man. She tried to remain calm and gesture to him that someone was in the cave and that he really, should let her go.

“Don’t do this! It’s not going to be good for you!”

The Apsara was in no mood to fall for her silly false tricks.

“Stop doing that with your eyes. Now. Why don’t you try that growl again?” He placed his free hand at her lower back. Karina hid her cringe and sighed out shaking her head. All whilst someone was very well getting p!ssed off In the shadows.

Karina sighed ignoring his hand raising up her shirt and took a deep inhale.

“Grrr…”

GRRRR!

A deep growl erupted from the cave making the Apsara shook to his bones. He let go of Karina and focused all his attention in the cave. A tall figure emerged from the darkness glowing his green eyes madly at him.

“Oh merde. Un vrai loup ! ” [Oh $hiT. A real wolf!]

"C'est vrai, sale chèvre ” [That’s right you ugly goat !]

The Apsara turned on his heel to escape when suddenly Matteo caught his hood and flung him against the cave wall. The man screamed in fear looking at Matteo, knowing all too well that he was so dead. Matteo grinned seeing him tremble able pulled out his claws to finish the perverted fool off.

“Stop!”

“Karina get out of my way!”

“You can’t kill him!”

They both stared hard at each other. On one hand Matteo had a crazy urge to pull her against him and kiss her roughly into submission. On the other hand, he could see that she was keeping a hard front and trying to be brave against him. A tear rolled down from her eye sensing he was about to rip that man into shreds. Her heart was beating a mile, and although he wished to kill him for touching her up like that, he simply growled at her angrily. Karina nervously gulped back in fear and then watched him go back inside the dark cave, to control his very angry inner wolf.

“Oh merci!”

The Apsara man fell towards Karina’s foot.

Karina simply kicked him away.

“Run away from here, and don’t look back! Got it!”

The Apsara man scrambled up to his feet and quickly and took of running, not daring to look back. The girl had saved her life. She may not be a wolf, but it was crystal clear to him that the wild wolf had her back.

“Matteo?” Karina called out.

She hated going inside the dark, knowing he was lurking inside there.

“Matteo, can you come out now? He’s gone.” She wiped her tear away, composing herself once more.

“Matteo, if you don’t come out right now, I’m heading back to the plane alone!”

Karina turned on her heel after a minute or two and was just about to descend from the hill she had once crawled up from. But her elbow was caught and she was turned around fast, making her gasp out.

“Alone? Who said you could go back alone?”

Karina smiled seeing as he had now calmed down and gone back to his less angry self.

“Well, looks like a long way down. Hey? Didn’t know you could speak French. And that growl. Wow, almost dropped me to my knees, lucky for you I didn’t fall.” Karina chuckled out after talking quickly at him. Matteo hid his grin hiding his amusement with her, then suddenly started walking into her personal space.

“Are you mocking me right now?”

Karina ceased her level of laughter and looked back up at him, shaking her head in silence. He mocked her little head movements making her gulp. Shit. Was he still angry with her? If that was the case, perhaps it was time to distract him.

“Hey, so umm, we should start getting down this hill? I’ll go first!” She tried to side step him, but Matteo gently shoved her backwards.

“Hey!”

“You know, I found it quite amusing when you went down on all fours and tried to scare that fool away.”

“Oh? Well it kind of worked thanks to you, when I went grrr and then you went GRRRAAA..(coughs) Hehe..”

He shortly chuckled at her another attempt to growl.

“Karina I was wrong about you.”

She looked up at him in a little confusion.

“I mean I thought you really hated us. But looks like that’s not the case anymore. It looks to me like you do want to join the wolf pack.” He suddenly pulled out his fangs, and really had her heart rate going.

“What?! No, no, no! You got it wrong! I was only trying to scare him because he thought I was a wolf, which I’m not bbbbb…but Matteo, please calm down. Let’s not get any ideas. I, I, I…I…” Her stuttering had kicked in, for fear he was really going to bite her this time.

“I, what Karina bambina.”

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry for escaping the plane and getting into trouble with angry bird! Please don’t bite me! I’ll behave!”

Matteo easily hoisted her up in his arms, making Karina automatically wrap her legs around his waist.

Her heart skipped stones when he started down at her deeply.

“Don’t worry bambina. I’m not going to bite you.”

“Yy..You’re not? Oh Thankgod Matteo! I really thought for a second…” Karina went on all whilst Matteo held her in his arms contemplating the thought of kissing her senseless against the cave wall, no thanks to his excited inner wolf Knight.

For an odd weird reason, Karina had a song running in her head by Rihanna.

If it's loving that you want

Then you should make me your girl, your girl

If it's loving that you need

Baby come and share my world, share my world

If it's loving that you want

Come and take a walk with me, walk with me

'Cause everything that you need, I got it right here baby, baby

K: Looks like she likes us, perhaps we really should?

M: No Knight, she’s not ready for the real bite, yet.

He looked towards her neck and placed a trail of soft kisses on to her neck making her suddenly blush. He then licked her harder than usual and nipped at her skin with his teeth, making her release a soft moan. A smile formed on his lips as he drew closer towards her jawline and licked right besides her corner of her mouth. Karina gasped and pulled her head away from where he was trying to aim his plump lips at.

Disc scratch.

“Stop! What are you doing?!” She pushed away from him and slapped his chest angrily. He looked so intensely at her that she stopped squirming in his hold. He had that look on his face, that made her know, she was in serious trouble. Matteo cracked a mischievous grin that made her stomach flip.

“This.”

Matteo crashed his lips with her, and although Karina fought every fiber in her mind not to let him in, she failed miserably when he squeezed her butt cheeks making her gasp out of surprise. Matteo plunged his hot tongue into her in the most sensual way tasting every bit of her. What the hell was he doing to her?! Her hands reached around his neck then travelled against his soft dark brown hair. This felt so wrong yet so right to her in so many ways. Karina gave in and kissed him back enjoying the blissful kiss, the notorious wolf gave her.

He chuckled out breaking off the kiss and looked at her very flushed self. Too bad she was just sweet sixteen. Matteo would have love to go down on her and taste her out, but she was his sweet little lamb. His feisty girl. His most forbidden tasty fruit, that he refused to eat out yet. Temptation to take her was firm but Matteo was a gentleman. He may have stolen a few kisses from her but he was going to wait for her.

After all, he had a small connection with her when her marked her. But only once he truly claimed her and turned her with her consent, would he really know the truth. For his true bite mark would only stay on her if she was his mate.

K: I think she is you know?

M: We’ll let her decide that.

Karina put her hands on his face and held him closer trying to taste him out. Matteo was getting hard, by the way she tasted him and licked pulling at his bottom lip in a lustful way. Damn his feisty lamb, was turning him on.

But things were getting too heated up for Matteo and his inner wolf who was fighting all his lusty intentions. He hated doing this. No matter how hot and young and seriously forbidden she looked, Matteo was not going to take advantage of her.

He pulled away and they both broke out gasping for air. Karina seemed confused, why did he suddenly break it off? She went to close her eyes and dive back into the blissful kiss, but Matteo chuckled out flashing his eyes green at her making her gasp out. She was focused and seemed quite alert with him, staring back at him in silence.

“My Karina. You’re a terrible kisser.”

Karina shoved her self off him abruptly and shot him angry glare back him. This was the second time he kissed her! A terrible kisser?! Sure she hadn’t had much experience in that field but she hated the fact that he didn’t enjoy her kiss! Wait, why the hell would she even want him to enjoy it?! Stupid damn teenage hormones!!! Karina felt like pulling her hair out like a mad person. She even had a thought of dry humping a few minutes ago, but thank heavens, she did not go that far with him!

“You’re even worse!” She snapped.

“Baby you can’t lie to a wolf you know? The wolf knows all and hears all.” He winked back.

The feisty teen was embarrassed and angry all at once that she flipped him off with her special finger and marched straight towards the edge of the hill. As cute as she was, Matteo was annoyed at the fact that she was putting herself in more danger again.

“Karina stop.” he warned with a low growl and a flash of his green eyes at her. But Karina was done being afraid of him at this point, and especially when he called her a terrible kisser.

“No! I’m going down this hill and don’t try to stop me you…You! You, serial kisser! I want to get away from you before you start to French kiss me again, you damn perv―Aaaahhhhh!!!” Suddenly the ground eroded from the edge of the cliff, making Karina fall backwards.

“KARINA!”

In the nick of time, Matteo managed to grab her arm and pull her back to safety.

Karina crashed back into Matteo’s hold and he looked down at her with relief. His lips twitched a sudden annoyance and anger with her. She’d done it again. She had put herself in danger and Matteo had saved her a$$ yet another time. Her eyes watered making him soften his look on her. He didn’t mean to be angry at her but the thought of loosing her just beyond the cliff made his heart and his wolf almost leap out of him.

“Karina, you’re ok. You’re safe.” He was about to kiss her forehead, but Karina rolled off him, wiping her tears away.

“I just want to go home!” Karina stressed. She was exhausted and tired. She had no plans on falling for her enemy. But even a little part of her couldn’t deny the fact that she was slowly falling for her protector.

Matteo then went Infront of her and knelt down showing her his back.

“Get on my back and hold on tight.”

“What?”

“Karina I’m your only way out of this cliff zone. Now are you going to get on or do you wish to spend a night with me alone in that cave?”

Her heart spiked up with dangerous illustrious thoughts filling her head. She blushed hard and quickly climbed on his back, obediently.

“No! Never, I don’t ever want to spend another second with you up here nor do I want to end up with you ever alone on this island you crazy cazzo!”

Matteo smirked and hoisted her up squeezing her bum cheeks, making her blush and yelp out.

“Hey! Quit it!” She slapped his shoulder.

Matteo chuckled at started running towards the cliff.

“Hold on tight principessa.”

Karina yelped holding on to him tightly, as he leapt over the cliff in an astonishing height.
