The Lycan King

Nikolai

"How is your ass now?" I asked Ava.

"Better. I still need to be punished twelve times." She whispered, pink tinting her cheeks.

"That you do." I agreed and then started stripping out of my clothes, getting ready for bed. I am extremely tired today.

"Really?" Her eyes widened when she saw me undoing my belt. She thought that I was really going to belt her.

Let me toy with her, I thought with a smirk.

I pulled the belt out of all the loops and gave her a hard look. "I told you, didn't I?" I folded the belt in half and slapped it on my palm.

"But-but I c-counted." She took a step back and I took a step forward.

"You didn't count the previous four." I whispered and saw her nipples tightened. She still had black smudges of smoke on her entire body. I wiped her chest and showed her my black fingers and whispered, "you're a filthy girl," I stepped forward again and her back hit the glass of the window. "You deserve a bit of punishment, don't you?"

Her eyes slid from my fingers to my grey eyes. She arched her back, making her nipples graze my naked skin. I ground my hard on in her core. "Will you let me punish you?"

"I -I," a panicked look crossed her eye and her eyes dropped to the belt. "I'm scared." Her scared eyes snapped to mine again.

All amusement left me.

I dropped the belt on the floor and held her face with my hands. "I'll never do something you don't want." I kissed her dry lips, tasting the black smoke. I didn't mind it.

"I want to take a shower." She whispered.

Nodding, I released her. Ducking her head, she scurried into the bathroom. I saw that her ass had returned back to her normal skin colour again.

Letting out a breath, I finished stripping myself and jumped in the bed, forcing myself to keep my eyes open and wait for Ava.

After what seemed like hours, she stepped out. I scrunched my eyes open, not able to fully open them in this state of tiredness. I saw her look at me before she crossed the room and stood her the balcony. Then she slowly bent down and picked up the belt. She looked at it intently, like it was a different creature.

And to my surprise, she folded it in half and then slapped it over her open palm, a lot like I had done but her palm closed at the impact like she was trying to feel it more. The next slap of the belt was a bit harsher and the smell of her arousal filled the room.

Well, fuck my life. Ava actually likes pain.

The belt slid from her fingers and fell on the floor with a thump. She jumped and then turned around to look at me. I closed my eyes instantly.

For some reason, it felt too private to watch. It was something she hadn't admitted to herself yet and she probably never will. I'm not going to force her.

I heard some rustling and I opened my eyes again. She had picked up my clothes and was walking towards the bathroom— to put them in the hamper like she did everyday— and then rounded the bed to get to her side and crawled up the bed. She slid under the covers and snuggled against my chest. Keeping my eyes closed, I put my arm around her waist and bring her closer, like I did in sleep most of the time and took a deep breathe, smelling the true smell of Ava.

She sighed. "Goodnight, Love."
