Imani

"S-stay away from me Kieran" I stammered.

I watched Kieran take intimidating steps towards my quivering figure. I recoiled in fear near the corner of the bedroom, praying silently that this would all go away. I wanted this to all be a dream, I mean it had to be a dream. Their kind weren't real, he couldn't be real.

"I won't hurt you baby girl" he said softly.

It was hard to believe that a person like him, so tall and built, so intimidating, could manage to pull such a soft tone of voice. Deep inside me I could feel something telling me to trust him, and not only to just trust him but to move towards him so he could hold me close to his warm toned body.

I shivered at the thought, why was this happening to me. I never wanted any of this. Too busy in my own thoughts I didn't even realise how close Kieran was to me until I felt his rough large yet soft hands caress my wet cheeks softly.

A gasp escaped past my lips when I felt his hand on my cheek, slowly I looked up at him. I could see his eyes glowing in the darkness, the only thing that brightened up the room ever so slightly was the strong glow emitting from the moon, in the dark midnight sky.

"Please, I just- I want to go home" I pleaded.

He took a few steps closer until I could hear his heartbeat beating against my own. His other hand rested on the wall behind me, which trapped me in the corner against him.

"I can't let you do that" he growled, his eyes glowing brighter.

"I-I" the way his chest rumbled as he growled distracted me momentarily.

This is real

"I understand that you are confused, all of these emotions that you are feeling is linked to our mate bond. The strong need you have for me makes you want to stay no matter how much you try to convince yourself that you want to go. I need you and you need me" he said.

"Those sparks you feel-" he said touching my face once again," you're feeling them because we are mates, we have an unbreakable attraction to each other, something much more stronger than you think" he continued to stroke my cheek and I shivered, subconsciously leaning into him.

"There is no point fighting this Imani," the way my name rolled off his tongue made me feel some type of way.

"It'll only hurt the both of us, and I don't think that's what you want..Imani.." he whispered.

His voice was so low and husky it sent pleasurable shivers down my spine, for some strange reason I felt an itching sensation at the tip of my fingers, it was like I wanted to run them through something most likely being his soft dirty blonde hair.

"I- you're not real, this is some sick twisted dream" I said lowly.

"Your kind don't exist," I continued, at this moment I felt dissuaded to not believe him.

"Open your eyes, I'm real, my kind is real this is no dream baby girl" he said leaning down towards me even more.

I bit down on my lip nervously, facing away from him I avoided his strong gaze. He placed his fingers under my chin forcing me to look at him once again. I took the time to analyse his face. My eyes wandered from his blue eyes that were staring back at me, they'd returned to their original colour instead of the pitch black and dark yellow colour that was previously there.

There was a faint scar that started from the top of his left eyebrow and ended diagonally across at the bridge of his nose. He had a few more but other then that he was flawlessly gorgeous. It just didn't make sense that a man like him would want anything to do with me.

A low growl rumbled in his chest which sent chills down my spine. He lowered his head so it was placed at the crane of my neck where he placed soft kisses. My hands immediately gripped onto his large biceps, at an attempt to steady myself. A burning desire flowed though my being and down towards my waiting core. I tightened my thick thighs together to stop the urge.

"You are mine, Imani and if you think that I'll ever let you go-" he murmured against my neck, making me shiver against him.

A quiet moan passed my lips when I felt his large hand grip momentarily on my ass.

"Then you've lost your damn mind" he groaned.

As soon as the words slipped from his mouth he brought me into a fiery kiss, a kiss so passion filled it almost made me black out from the world.
