Elena moaned into the kiss as her arms wrapped around his waist. Her mind switched off as she focused on feeling his lips on hers.
Lucas gripped her petite figure and moved them back towards the sofa. He spun them without breaking them apart, he sat down and Elena instinctively crawled onto his lap.
She could feel his reaction towards her, her heart stuttered. It thrilled her more than she was willing to admit, to know that she could excite him.
Soon, Lucas moved his mouth down her neck, kissing and nipping the sensitive flesh. Elena willingly bared her neck to him and that sign of submission made his wolf howl. He felt a sudden urge to claim her.
"Lucas!" she moaned and he groaned against her skin.
"Fuck!" he called out.
"Yes!" she moaned, grinding her hips against his.
His last shred of resolve was gone. It snapped the moment he scented her arousal, she was just as turned on as he was.
He quickly gripped her butt cheeks and carried her to her room. Once inside, Lucas knelt on her bed and lowered her body down softly. His eyes raked over her as his hands made quick work of her clothing.
Small patches of scars flitted across her beautiful skin and like the first time he saw them, it angered him.
"Lucas!" she moaned, reaching for him and pulling him out of his thoughts.
Her naked body felt soft against the hardness of his chest. She moaned at the weight and relished in the feel of him all around.
"Please, Lucas! I need you now," she groaned in frustration after several minutes of him lying there, doing nothing.
Without warning, Lucas lifted himself and flipped Elena over. He pulled at her waist and she happily obliged.
Now, with her ass in the air, she moaned as she felt him swipe his cock against her folds. Her moans were music to his ears. Lucas pushed forward slightly and he stilled at the tightness.
"No! Don't stop, please Lucas!"
That was all he needed to continue. With slow, deliberate thrust he inched inside. Elena lost all coherent thoughts as her world consisted of feeling him inside her and the sounds he was making behind her.
"Fuck, you feel so good!" he moaned.
Elena rolled her hips in time with his and she could feel her climax coiling in her stomach.
"Lucas, I'm close!"
"Oh! Me too!"
Their orgasms were soon igniting inside them. Elena screamed out Lucas's name as she felt him cum inside her. For a split second, Lucas felt embarrassed at cumming so quickly until he paused … his orgasm was spurting jets of his cum inside of her but that wasn't what had him frozen in place.
The base of his cock was slowly swelling, he was locked tight inside her. He was knotting her. She moaned against him, oblivious to what was happening, moving slightly as he stilled her hips.
"Lucas!" she moaned languidly.
"Shhh!" he whispered whilst wrapping his arm around her waist and rolling them over.
Elena was now lying on top of him with his cock still inside her. She groaned as the friction of the movement sent more shockwaves through her. Lucas, to distract her, moved his hand down to her clit and slowly started to massage it.
Her orgasm built again and her body shivered above him. His knot was slowly subsiding as her second orgasm crashed through her. Gently, he pulled his softening cock out and moved so that Elena rolled off of him.
As he lay staring at the ceiling, he heard a faint snoring sound next to him. His mind was whirling as he pushed himself up to lean over. Elena was fast asleep, the alcohol and the effects of their lovemaking took its toll.
Lucas got up and headed out for a run, he needed to clear his head. He shifted and forced his body to its limits. The sun was high up in the sky by the time he returned. His instinct was to go to Elena, but his mind was still spinning.
Instead, he headed home and found his parents, his brother and his brother's mate sitting in the living space looking concerned.
"What's wrong?" Lucas asked as he took a seat next to his father.
"Lucas," his Father started. "It's good you're here, perhaps you can help us."
"With what?" Lucas was concerned as well as confused now.
"With Elena. She came to tell us she was leaving for a while. I think she's going to the cabin at the top of the mountain. She said she doesn't know when she'll be back. Elena looked so broken, did she say anything to you?"
"What! She's leaving!" he yelled, running out the door without another word.
He raced to Elena's house. The door was locked. He rattled and banged on the door.
"She's not there Lucas, we told you she left this morning."
Lucas turned at the sound of his mother's voice.
"How could you let her leave like that!" he called out as he slumped onto the steps.
Helen sighed and came to sit next to him.
"We didn't exactly let her leave but she looked so broken like she had nothing left. It was strange, she looked worse than after she found out about Caleb and Mary. Obviously, we wanted her to stay but she was adamant she needed to go."
"I need to find her," Lucas whimpered.
"I think she needs some time to herself Lucas, let her be and she'll come back when she's ready."
"I can't do that! I need to see her, to make sure she's ok. I should… I need to go after her."
"Why Lucas? You sound different. You've always been close to her and stuck close by her but you've never sounded this possessive before. It's like you've claimed her."
Helen's eyes laced him with a stare that was all-knowing and he felt as if she could read his mind.
Lucas wanted to tell her, scream it for all to hear but he wanted Elena to be the first to know.
"Lucas, I don't know why the sudden shift in you but Elena needs time. Give her that and everything will sort itself out. Just leave her be for now."
Helen patted him on the arm and then left. Lucas watched her go as his wolf whimpered inside him.
"How can I?" His mother stopped.
"She's my mate!" Her mother's eyes went wide.
