Fuck Me, Talon (1)

Fuck Me, Talon (1)
AERILA

Hours Later ~

I stared at myself in the mirror.

Talon had sent me a dress to wear for dinner, but it seemed he had changed his mind. Instead, he had turned the dinner into a small ball to welcome me to his pack.

From the serious tone of the letter in my hand, it looked like some important people would be attending.

The problem was, how many?

“Is it tight enough?”

The voice behind me pulled me from my thoughts. The young man I had made my pet during my stay here was helping me tighten the corset.

I glanced at my reflection.

The corset accentuated my small waist and pushed my full breasts upward, making them look even more prominent.

Talon certainly knew how to pick a dress.

I stared at the white gown, admiring the way it brought out every curve I never knew I had. My gaze dropped to my tiny waist before I turned slightly, catching sight of the outline of my meaty ass beneath the dress.

I glanced at the mirror again.

The man was staring at my ass.

“You can leave,” I said calmly.

He immediately recollected his gaze, bowed, and left the room.

I lifted the dress slightly and noticed the faint handprints on my thigh.

“Damn it. I told him not to spank me.”

I lowered the dress and arranged my hair before putting on the remaining pieces of the outfit.

Moon Goddess.

I looked fuckable and edible in this dress.

Talon turned out to have a good eye after all.

I turned and walked out of my room, where I found another guard waiting.

“The Alpha ordered me to direct you to the ballroom,” he said.

I nodded. “After you.”

I ignored the lingering gaze of the golden-haired man as I walked ahead of him. Soon, we reached the ballroom.

I lifted my hand to push the doors open, but he suddenly grabbed my arm, drawing a displeased look from me.

“Before you go in, there’s something you need to know.”

His expression had turned serious.

“Alpha Talon’s acting Luna will be attending the ball to welcome you, and she’s known to be very evil. The last breeder who was sent to Alpha Talon died the next day after she had a fight with the acting Luna, so please be careful.”

He released my arm and stepped back.

Cold sweat broke across my skin.

Why hadn’t Talon mentioned her to me?

I quickly wiped the sweat from my face and forced a smile.

“Thank you very much.”

He nodded.

The doors opened.

Soft music drifted into my ears, followed by the low murmur of dozens of conversations. My eyes widened at the sight before me.

Beautifully dressed men and women stood around the ballroom, chatting amongst themselves. Workers moved through the crowd carrying trays filled with glasses, while round tables covered with food filled the room.

I glanced upward.

Huge chandeliers hung from the ceiling, their intricate designs making it obvious they had cost a fortune.

Then the aroma of the food reached me.

My stomach growled.

I froze.

That was when I remembered I hadn’t eaten.

My mouth watered instantly.

“AERILA!”

Talon’s voice swept through the murmurs, silencing the room. I turned toward him and saw him waving, a smile spread across his face.

“Come over here.”

Every head turned toward me.

Gasps escaped from several people as I walked through the crowd.

“Who’s she? She’s gorgeous,” someone whispered.

Pride settled in my chest, and I instinctively lifted my chin.

“I know, right? Look at her waist and… oh my goodness. Is she a Luna?”

Soon-to-be Luna.

I corrected them in my head as I finally reached Talon.

He lifted his glass to his lips, using the opportunity to rake his eyes over me.

“Alpha Talon, who is this woman?”

A soft voice sounded behind him.

A woman stepped forward, holding a glass of her own. Her red hair was the first thing I noticed, followed by her curvy figure and exposed skin.

I swallowed before looking at Talon.

His eyes were still fixed on me.

“She’s Aerila Ashwyn,” he introduced. “I’ve been wanting you two beautiful women to meet. Damsel.”

He turned toward the woman.

Her eyes raked over me from head to toe.

“Is she your new breeder?”

Talon chuckled. His hand slipped behind her ass, and she flinched, her face heating up.

“You know I wouldn’t need one when I already have you.”

What?

My smile froze. For a moment, I couldn’t process what I was seeing. This wasn’t how he had behaved in the throne room.

The way he’d held my waist. The way he’d whispered against my lips. The way he’d promised to give me everything Nyxion had denied me.

Had all of that meant nothing?

Perhaps I had misunderstood him.

Maybe I had been foolish enough to believe his words because I wanted to hear them.

A strange heat crawled up my neck as embarrassment settled in my chest. I could still feel the ghost of his touch from earlier, and now he was standing in front of everyone with another woman pressed against him.

Then jealousy hit me.

I hated the feeling immediately.

Why should I care?

I barely knew Talon. And yet, watching him touch her made something inside me twist.

“Oh, stop it. People are watching us.” Her hand pressed against his chest, her speech slightly slurred.

Then they kissed.

My fingers curled tightly around my glass. My eyes remained fixed on them despite every part of me telling me to look away.

Is he trying to humiliate me?

I bit my lips hard until the sting of pain finally forced me to release them.

I turned away, pretending I didn’t care.

But I did.

At least, enough to make me question everything that had happened between us.

Had his offer in the throne room been genuine?

Or had he simply been playing with me?

I glanced back at them.

I hated that I was still watching.

I hated even more that I was wondering whether I had made a mistake by believing him.

Only after they finally pulled apart did they seem to remember I was standing there.

“Oh, sorry. Talon has unusual stamina. Even I have difficulty keeping up with him sometimes.”

Damsel wiped her lips, laughing between breaths.

How the fuck did that concern me?

I forced a smile. “Ah, it must be a lot of work being by his side.”

“Yes.” She smiled.

“I’ll see you tomorrow, my love. I have important discussions to have with Aerila.”

He kissed her hand.

“Oh.” Her eyes moved toward me. “Okay.”

Talon reached out his hand toward me, and I took it. He pulled me close as we began walking around the ballroom, never saying a word to me.

He introduced me to everyone in his pack, from his Gamma, whose name I barely bothered to remember, to his Beta and the elders.

Hours passed like that.

By the end of it, my feet felt as though they had grown muscles of their own from the constant walking. I staggered slightly, holding my head as exhaustion settled over me.

Talon walked behind me as I forced my aching legs to carry me toward my room.

“Have you thought about it?” he whispered behind me.

I cursed under my breath.

“What I need here is a little help. I can barely walk.”

He went silent. Before I could turn around, he suddenly swept me off my feet.

I gasped, instinctively wrapping my legs around his waist as his arms settled beneath me, one hand resting firmly against my ass. My arms went around his neck.

I gulped and looked down at him.

“It’s 9:59 p.m.” His voice was low. His eyes dropped to my lips. My mind immediately went back to Damsel, and I shook my head.

“You already have a Luna, and—”

He hissed sharply, startling me.

“Answer the question.”

The irritation in his eyes made the rest of my words die in my throat.

I contemplated everything.

Damsel was still playing in my mind, but that didn’t mean she was his actual Luna. The guard had called her an acting Luna.

Which meant I still had a chance.

Maybe I didn’t need to understand my relationship with Talon yet. Maybe all I needed was to secure my position first.

I swallowed. “My answer is yes.” I whispered the words.

Instantly, Talon lifted me higher.

My gown rolled up to my waist, leaving me in my tiny underwear. The sudden movement sent a rush of heat through me, and my pussy grew wet.

He held my waist with one arm and shifted my underwear aside. His cold breath brushed against me before his fingers rubbed against my entrance.

A slow, satisfied smile spread across his face.

“I’ll take good care of you.” He kissed my breasts before changing direction and heading toward his room.

When we reached the door, he opened it and carried me inside before shutting it behind him.

The lock clicked.

I gulped.

I knew I had just sealed my fate.

And yet, despite everything that had happened tonight, a strange curiosity stirred inside me.

I wanted to know what would happen next.
