Chapter 255 Bound by Heat

The kiss started soft, slow like a secret told in the dark, but it did not stay quiet for long.

Enzo's mouth grew heavier, demanding more than just a passing touch. His lips parted hers with an easy skill that made her head spin, and Suri found herself opening up to him, letting him taste every bit of the hesitation she had sworn to hold onto.

His large hand slid from her face down her neck, tracing the delicate curve of her collarbone before slipping under the hem of her loose night shift.

His warm palm burned against her bare skin, fingers splaying out wide across her ribs as he pulled her flush against his chest. Every inch of him felt like hot iron and solid muscle.

Suri gasped softly against his lips as his thumb brushed over the sensitive skin just above her hip, sending a sharp, sweet jolt straight through her core.

Her hands, which had been weakly resting against his shoulders to push him away, slowly crept upward of their own accord.

Her fingers tangled into the thick, dark waves of his hair, pulling him closer, deepening a kiss she had promised herself she would deny him.

Enzo growled low in the back of his throat, a sound rich with satisfaction and the deep, possessive hum of his wolf finally settling down. He shifted his weight, moving over her so his heavy body trapped her safely against the mattress, though he was careful not to crush her.

"Suri..." he breathed out against her lips, his voice rough and ragged with sudden, desperate need. "Look at me."

She slowly fluttered her eyes open, the dim moonlight catching the dark hunger in his gaze.

There was no anger in him now, no cold distance, only an aching, raw devotion that made her chest tighten with an emotion far scarier than hate.

"I'm right here," she whispered back, her voice trembling just a fraction.

That was all the permission he needed.

Enzo crashed his mouth down onto hers again, wild and urgent this time. His hands moved with practiced speed, pushing the thin fabric of her gown up and out of the way, eager to touch every inch of the skin he had been denied for so long.

When his calloused palm cupped her full, milk-heavy breast, Suri let out a sharp, breathless cry, arching her back off the mattress as a wave of intense heat rushed between her thighs.

Her breasts were still aching and sensitive from the day, but under his touch, the pain twisted into a dizzying, electric pleasure.

Enzo groaned softly at the texture of her, his mouth leaving her lips to trail burning kisses down her jaw, past her throat, and straight down to the sensitive slope of her chest.

When his lips closed warmly over her peak, sucking gently to ease the heavy pressure, Suri's fingers dug deep into his shoulders, her nails biting into his skin as she whimpered his name.

"Enzo... please..." she sobbed out, not even knowing what she was begging for, only that the fire inside her was burning too hot to bear.

He moved down her body with hungry efficiency, his hands parting her knees and sliding up the smooth skin of her thighs.

Every touch of his fingers felt like a branding iron, claiming what he believed was his by right and by blood.

When he finally shifted forward, pressing his heavy, heat-filled length against her entrance, Suri caught her breath, her eyes flying wide in the dark.

He paused, resting his forehead against her damp shoulder, breathing heavily as he gave her one last chance to push him away. "Tell me to stop," he whispered, his voice shaking with the effort it took for his human mind to hold back the beast. "Tell me to stop right now, Suri, and I will tear myself away from you."

Suri didn't say a word.

Instead, she wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling him down into her with a fierce, unspoken hunger that answered for her.

Enzo thrust forward slowly, filling her.

A sharp gasp tore from Suri's throat, her back bowing off the bed as a flash of intense, overwhelming heat flooded her veins.

It felt like fire, like lightning, like a missing piece of her soul finally locking violently back into place.

Enzo groaned deep and loud into the empty air of the room, his eyes blazing a brilliant, unfiltered gold in the dark as his wolf roared in triumph inside his mind.

He didn't hold back anymore.

The rhythm of his body turned hard, deep, and driving, matching the primal beat of their bloodlines.

Suri met him thrust for thrust, her hands clawing at his back, her hips rising to meet his with a desperate, wild abandon.

The room filled with the heavy sound of ragged breathing, skin slapping against skin, and low, animalistic growls vibrating from Enzo's chest.

She forgot about the pack, she forgot about Riley, she even forgot about her own stubborn pride.

There was only the heat of his skin, the weight of his body, and the intoxicating rhythm that pushed them both higher and higher toward the edge of a cliff.

With a final, earth-shattering thrust, Enzo buried himself deep inside her, his deep roar muffled against her neck as he reached his peak.

The sheer intensity of his release triggered a violent, beautiful wave inside Suri.

Her vision went white, her body locking tight around him as she screamed softly into his shoulder, shattering apart in a blinding flash of pure pleasure.

Minutes later, the heavy silence of the night settled back over the room.

Enzo collapsed gently to the side, pulling Suri's exhausted, trembling body flush against his chest, wrapping his arms around her as if he would never let her go again.

Suri lay with her head resting over his steady heartbeat, too tired to argue, too broken open to care, as sleep slowly claimed them both in the dark.
