Chereads / Accepting Fate / Chapter 7 - Is That A Command

Chapter 7 - Is That A Command

"A door doesn't stop me." Kora turned rather quickly to look at him standing there. The bathroom was medium sized so there was space. Though his presence made it feel smaller.

"Still felt good to slam it in your face." He took a step forward and she took a step back.

"Don't you touch me." She reached over and grabbed the broom that had been behind the door and jabbed the end of the handle hard into his lower chest.

"And I swear to god if you ask if it's a command I'm going to crack this over your freaking head." He reached up and gripped the wooden handle.

"Four." He held up his other hand and she felt her heart race a bit. Yeah she knew what number she was at and his look said what she felt. No matter what she commanded of him next, he got the next one and she didn't know if her commands were negated or not. It didn't say anything that she remembered, but she was sure he'd have to follow some guideline. With it at four if he was going to play the game the way he just had he'd force her hand. So she might be better commanding something of him.

"You got what you wanted. You took it and should be happy too. Didn't even have to do something for it." She held the broom rather harshly expecting him to try and rip it away from her. Yeah it seemed like a stupid weapon, but it was all she really had.

"Barely scratched the surface, you have a lot to give. You clearly don't even feel what I took." Instead of pulling the broom from her, he just snapped it with one hand. She immediately swung it hard just like she said she was going to. He'd stepped forward and caught the swing with his other hand. The sound of it hitting his hand was sharp. It had to sting, she didn't care if he had some mythical strength or not being a demigod or whatever. This time though he pulled it from her and his other hand hit the base of her throat and her back hit the door rather harshly. She glared at him and dug her nails into his wrist drawing blood. He stepped right against her. His thumb and forefinger squeezed slightly, putting pressure there.

"I said don't touch me." She practically growled at him. He was pretty much right against her and leaned so his breath ran across her ear and cheek. She was very aware of his harder frame pressed against her and the differences between them. She also silently cursed her body's wayward reaction too. It wasn't the physical reaction, it was his attitude that angered her.

"You said to stop, I did." She'd be a liar if she said a thrill didn't go through her at the sensation of his mouth moving closer to the side of her throat. She tried to move, but she already knew it was fruitless. He had her pinned and he was way stronger than her. She swallowed slightly and kept herself calm, because she wasn't feeling calm. It felt like he had control of the situation and she had none.

"Either way, I said stop. So stop." She was proud of her voice not shaking. He made a darker sound that she felt vibrate in his chest.

"Your command was subjective. Not all encompassing." He slid his tongue up the side of her throat. It was slow and deliberate. She felt her womb clench and a severe wet rush go through her. She reminded herself that she needed to keep her wits about her with him. Clearly she'd gotten into hot water here and had no idea how she was going to steer out of it.

"You… I…." She was trying to think of the best thing. The best command she could use to make sure he didn't get free reign afterwards.

"You what? Do share, I'm dying to know." She wasn't sure how to take the tone of his voice. If it was sarcastic or serious. She figured she had minimal time before he just did something, like he'd done before.

Orion felt like he was shaking inside. He was experiencing a good number of firsts right now with this woman. He barely knew her, and she didn't even mean to be his master. He'd never wanted one of them to give him a command so badly in his life. He didn't care what she commanded of him, he knew exactly what he was going to command of her. He felt this extreme anticipation too, look if someone turned you on, it was what it was.

Her fight suddenly wasn't aggravating, it was exciting. He could feel that she wasn't opposed physically. She'd enjoy herself no matter what he made her do. He knew that much and he'd sink his teeth in far deeper next time and take far more the moment he had no restraint. There was something thrilling about the idea of having such a strong willing person under your control. His grip on her tightened, he was in a half mind to just do what he wanted right here and see what happened. There was a sudden hard rap on the door that startled them both.

"Hey Kora you in there?"

"Yeah, just a minute Matt." She recognized his voice and she wasn't exactly sure if Orion was going to let her out. He did move slightly and they were staring at each other right then. Two very intense stares meeting each other.

"K, there's a lady here that wants to buy all the stuff that came in last week. I told her to talk to you, so when you're done…"

"I'll be there in a second." Orion turned his head and looked toward the wall with the sink and mirror. He did move back from her. Then touched the side of her neck and she felt a cooling sensation there. He was still rather close and she noted for the first time the strong spice scent coming from him. She pretended that she didn't like it. She was irritated with him.

"If you want to live to see tomorrow I suggest you say nothing about me or the book. The woman is a witch, she'll kill you for it." Of course there was someone here for the book she never wanted and now she couldn't get rid of it without dying.

"I won't hold my breath for free help." She said with extreme sarcasm.

"You have but to ask."

"Asking isn't a command according to you." For the first time he felt an actual smile. It was both in humor and sarcasm.

"She does learn." She let out a harsh breath and opened the door continuing to face him the whole time. He didn't realize you could desire someone and be so irritated with them at the same time. This woman was something else, and right now the direction he didn't mind. When she stepped into the hall she did turn around to walk back and his gaze immediately went down her backside. Oh he was going to find out what her body felt like, she was going to give that fifth and he'd take what he always looked forward to but more so this time.

"Is there a giant welt on the side of my neck?" She grumbled glancing back at him.

"No, I removed it. Any trace of it." She didn't need to command that. Right now he didn't want another owner, and there was no reason a witch would be here other than to look for his book. He'd been passed around a couple covens for a while. Stolen back and forth to help them with their goals. He was sure that there were several witches that were still alive that knew of him. What he didn't get was how they hadn't come for him sooner. Nyx must of had something to do with it.
