28. To anyone but bunny.

**Kieran **

"So very fucking hot, bunny," I groan, giving up on any control I had over myself. The view before me is glorious; I feel like I'm on top of the fucking world.

God fucking damn it, how I enjoy the view of her- it’s glorious. How I savour the submission she threw in my hands. For now, I'll overlook unimportant details and the fact that I don't deserve the gift she's willing to give.

Ocean is easily the most beautiful thing I've seen, and she's all mine. If Octavius still thinks I'm going to share- he has another thing coming his way. Brothers or not, he's not getting close to my bunny or sharing moments as such with her. Mine means mine and mine only.

I almost lose myself in admiration, and her willingness to learn as bunny's weak moan brings me back to my senses. Fuck it, even the sounds she makes seem like the best thing I've heard. How obsessed with a human can an ancient vampire be?

I use the moment she's lost in sensation and take a step closer to kneel next to Ocean. I gulp and lean a little closer to whisper, "Don't stop there, bunny. You have another hand, keep playing with your nipple and slide the other hand in between your legs."

I expect her to open her eyes and try to increase the distance between us as I already got far too close. Yet, she's so full of surprises I can't help but feel excited to get to know more about her.

Ocean nods and brings her hand between her legs to cup her sex. I follow the movement and gulp again. Watching her, I'm salivating like someone who's been starving for years. But what if that might be the case? What if the big thing I've been waiting for for centuries wasn't something I expected, but instead, all I ever wanted came in the form of a human?

"Now," I lean to her ear and let my breath tickle her skin. "Slide your hand over your pussy the same as I did in that mirror room. Do you remember the game we played there, bunny? Find that spot, the exact spot that drove you crazy," I can sense her arousal, but Ocean's hand still stays as frozen in the spot as previously.

Groaning, I grab her wrist, pull her hand from between her legs and bring it to my lips. With nothing but pure greed, I suck her fingers in my mouth and let my tongue round her fingers.

Another moan leaves Ocean's lips, her eyes still closed. I cover her fingers in my saliva and slowly bring her hand back where I wanted to see it in the first place. "There," I whisper as I press her dripping fingers against her pussy.

I know that she's capable of everything, but Ocean's still shy in getting to know her body, so I decide to help out. My own hand lands on top of hers as I spread her labia and guide my fingers to her clit. Ocean's breath hitches. "There, this is the spot. Your turn, bunny." I pull my hand away from her as if she burned me.

It's not that I don't enjoy touching her, yet I gave a promise and already overstepped it, ignoring the boundaries built by this beautiful human being. Besides, being this close to her, listening to her moans and watching her touch herself is more than merely challenging any bit of self-control I have in me.

I groan, pushing myself away from Ocean and landing right on my ass next to her. Good thing my brother isn't here; he'd laugh at my struggle, at the very leftover bits of control I try to grasp.

Yet, as frustrating as it is, my mind goes into overdrive the moment Ocean slides her fingers over her clit and lets a deep, loud, and fucking sexy moan pass her lips.

"God fucking damn it, bunny, can you get any sexier? Shit!" I hiss in frustration, sliding my fingers through my hair.

My words seem to fuel her excitement, the need to understand her body and pleasure herself. Her fingers round her clit, caging the tiny muscle as her teeth capture her bottom lip.

"T-this is a-amazing," Ocean stutters, fighting against another moan as her fingers move just a tad too quickly.

I grip her wrist and hold her, slowing her down. Who would have known that the seemingly shy and inexperienced human would go crazy over such little things as touching herself? But then again, who would have thought that I'd get this fucking hard by watching?

"Slow down, bunny; we have all the time we need. Enjoy it; let yourself savour the moments of pleasure. Drag it out, tease your body and senses; only then the orgasm you'll reach will be ten times better than simply getting yourself off in a few minutes. Your body is a luxury, a temple only you can open, so use the privilege, use it all, guide yourself to the edge of the cliff and stop. Look down, take a few breaths and start all over again. Slowly, carefully, just like your body needs it, not like your mind thinks."

I love how willing she is to follow every word that passes my lips. It's like magic, a state of trance Ocean embraces and gladly takes upon every bit of it.

"K-kiss me," Ocean whispers under her breath, leaving me speechless.

If anything, I wanted to play around with her, check her ability to navigate around the Arena and enjoy the show afterwards, but I never expected a kiss. More to say- a demand for one coming from her luscious lips.

For a split second, I consider if the idea is good but drop any doubt as soon as her eyes pop open and another moan slips her lips. The need in her gaze, the ache for more and movements of her body throws me over the edge.

Like a starved animal, I lunge at her, forcing our lips in a passionate fight for dominance. That's it; it's all Ocean and her constant attempts to overthrow her; there's nothing hotter than a woman full of fighting spirit.

Without thinking, I hover over her and position my hips between Ocean's legs. "God fucking damn it, you taste like the forbidden fruit, bunny," I groan against her lips.

My words couldn't hold more truth even if I thought for hours of what I was supposed to say. Ocean is the forbidden fruit, the one that tempts me into the darkness, the abyss of crimes, glory and pleasure- one I'm not supposed to touch. But fuck it, I'll touch her as much as I want to, as much as she wants me to.

"I'm ready," she moans against my lips.

I freeze. Those two words are more than I hoped for, more than I bargained for. I've been spending my days thinking I could wait, but now that she gave me the green light, there's nothing I want more than to take her. Though the human side of me registers that she deserves more than a quick fuck in the Arena, especially for her first time, the beast in me rages to claim her. Claim her as mine, not only feed but leave my mark so that no other undead motherfucker would look her way.

"Kieran, I'm serious, I need you," Ocean whines, thrusting her hips upwards to grind against erection in my pants. This woman, she's testing me.

"I wish I could believe you," I breathe out and close my eyes. Looking at her alone is temptation enough, let alone allow myself to get lost in her eyes- the desperation and need she hides in her gaze. "But it's just the moment, the emotions and the circumstances. Trust me; you wouldn't want me this fast. The Devil himself knows that I want that more than anything, but I don't believe you're ready. Not yet, at least not for me. Hate to admit it, but maybe Octavius would be better as your first. After all, he'll make the first time special, unforgettable. I don't think I could be as gentle as he is, as affectionate and caring as my brother. You need to take things slow, so let's stop before we go too far."

Even old fuck as myself can't believe the shit I just spat out of my mouth. Am I really turning down a chance at having sex with her? Hell, I've never turned down a good fuck, and something tells me that Ocean might feel like something out of this fucked up world. Yet, here I am, saying no to her. No, I'm not rejecting her; I'm trying to talk her out of this stupid idea.

I've been seething in anger just thinking about my brother, touching her, yet now I'll send her straight to that fucker? Am I fucking lost?

But then again, I do make sense, don't I? I'm the creep who prefers it rough, painful and animalistic. Not many can take what I want to give- everything I can offer.

My brother, however, is a gentleman, and he'd definitely make bunny's first time beautiful. Probably a bubble bath, some sensual massage, flowers, a huge bed and all that bullshit.

Who, in their right mind, would want to lose their virginity in the middle of the forest to a guy who'd bite her, growl, and use her body until she's not able to take more. A guy who'd leave his marks, bruises and shattered willpower behind.

No, I can't do that to her. To anyone but bunny.

I take a few more deep breaths and shake my head to rid myself of the damned thoughts. For some stupid reason, I still believe that taking deep breaths might calm me down- how ironic of me.

Her gentle palms land on my cheeks, and the scent of her arousal, lingering on her fingers, doesn't make the fucked up situation any better.

"No, Kieran, you don't get it. I want it. I've been thinking- a lot. Yes, I'm scared beyond any means, but if it's anyone, I want you as my first. I'd prefer you as my only, but I understand how the system works; I have no right to reject Octavius. He's a great guy, nice and everything, but he's just not that. He's not you." Ocean whispers, slowly running her thumb across my cheek.

Damn it, if only she knew how much meaning those words hold for me. I knew she was special the moment I laid my eyes on her, and it's not all that about her killing a vampire, no. She's different, like me- vired and created by something out of the ordinary. Any woman would prefer Octavius, but despite fear, Ocean still chose me.

We did have a deal that the choice is up to her for as long as it fits in the time frame. We had another two weeks to wait until she made a decision, but I didn't need to wait anymore. She chose me. Me, damn it!

I clear my throat and open my eyes. "Are you sure? So sure you know that you won't turn around on your words?"

"Yes." Thank fuck Ocean remembers to use her words; I'd probably flip if she kept nodding her head. Without further discussion, I get off of her and quickly scoop Ocean in my arms, heading out of the Arena. "Hey, what?" Her wandering gaze meets mine. I know the look in her eyes- she's confused.

"In future, we can fuck in the Arena whenever we want, but it's your first experience with a man, bunny. I won't do this to you; I couldn't. So today, I'll bring you to my room, my bed. I won't fuck you like an animal; I intend to make love to you." I can't believe that it's me who's declaring such things.

But then again, before bunny, there was no woman I really wanted to see in my bed. The idea of having Ocean, naked, wrapped in my bed sheets, surrounded by my scent- it all arouses me beyond limits. I've never been as hard watching naked women dance before me as I am now, just thinking of this little flame in my bed. One day, hopefully, our bed.

"I- I wouldn't mind staying here," her eyes sweep the Arena before I approach the main gate and walk back into the hall.

Since I have nowhere to rush, I walk as casually as ever. Octavius won't return for a while, and he had enough privacy to make a move on Ocean. He didn't use the chance, he didn't try, so I'll grip my chance with her even tighter. "I know. But I would. You deserve more. You are more than a quick booty call. But..."

"But?" She hooks an arm around my neck and tries to twist her body so no one would see her nude form, uncomfortably switching in my arms until her breasts and pussy is hidden from view.

I groan, a little annoyed that she's hiding even from me. I want her tits on full display whenever I see her around. "I can't promise you that I can restrain myself from a couple of things as we go down the rabbit hole. I made my mind ages ago; you made your decision, we're too far in to change our minds now."

She chuckles, a little displeased, "Restrain yourself from sleeping with me?"

And those words make me laugh. Yeah, I've been trying to get a proper taste of her since what seems ages ago, as if I'd drop the opportunity when she's finally willing to go all the way down with me. "No, bunny. Restrain myself from leaving a permanent ownership claim mark on your neck. If I slip and do it in the heat of the moment, don't blame yourself, it's on me."

"What if that happens? I mean the consequences." There's a hit of fear and worry in her voice. Is Ocean scared that something might happen to her now? If I ever get to claim her as mine, no other vampires included, nothing will fucking happen to her. I'll make sure that she's untouchable.

"On you- you're mine and mine only, so if there's a mark, you're somewhat responsible for staying as mine. No other man on your mind or in your presence." I try to sound casual, but even describing the idea excited me. Only mine sounds fucking perfect.

"And for you?" She raises an eyebrow.

We approach the bedroom door; I kick it open, enter, and kick the door closed. "A whole lot of shit. Such as my stuck up brother, who will probably flip his shit if he doesn't get his claws on you. Sometimes even the best actors rot within themselves."
