Chapter- 21. Tempt me (18+)
[Xanthea]
I gingerly stepped away from the door, taking every step carefully. Being intensely aware of every breath that echoed in the bathroom, I hugged myself, correcting the night robe on my body. Pressing my lips together, I hopped into the walk-in shower and enclosed myself within the glass.
Bang!
I flinched back. My hand fell on the touch screen shower control that accidentally turned on the rain shower head, soaking me wet.
All it took for Raven to break open the bathroom door was a kick.
My gaze connected to his piercing eyes through the shower and the glass, making hair stand on my body.
The air thickened with his presence and pheromones as he walked into the bathroom, raking back his long hair.
"I told you to resist me, not tempt me," his gaze lecherously roved over my body, flaring heat deep in my abdomen.
I squeezed my legs together. The night-robe stuck to my body like a second skin and my wet hair clung to my skin all over my shoulders and back. Water streamed down my face and over my lips as I breathed heavily.
"Why run here when you could have just used Asher to keep me away from you for another two minutes?" He asked. "He was more than willing to help you. Were you scared Ezra might actually kill you if we fought? It was a game. I can assure you he wouldn't have killed you. Well, not when the majority of us three want you to live. Or did you just want to show me how temptingly fuckable you look when you are dripping wet?"
Tensing my body, I gulped hard, dropping my gaze to the floor near Raven's feet.
Ezra and Asher flanked Raven behind the door frame.
"Or are you just a pretentious little angel bitch who doesn't want brothers fighting over you?" Ezra's pout turned into a sneer. "She is just stupid," he scoffed, leaning against the doorframe. "Well, we can't expect much from an omega's brain." My eyes met Asher's, whose gaze seemed to be overtaken by lust almost instantly, just like Raven's. It was just a small exchange of glances and my body was flooded with sparks like live wire ran beneath my skin.
"What will you do now, omega? You trapped yourself from all sides. Where will you run now? We still have one minute." Raven stepped closer to the shower.
I stepped back until my back pressed against the cold marble wall.
Asher frowned as his gaze ran from the sink to the floor and then lifted at me. He smirked slightly as his gaze traveled back to Raven, who was closing in on me.
Did he figure it out?
My heart pummeled relentlessly within my chest.
"If I were you, Raven... I wouldn't underestimate Xanthea," Asher warned Raven, holding my gaze.
Raven and Ezra looked at Asher.
"Aren't you taking her side way too much, Asher? We get it you chose her or whatever, but this is getting irritating now," Ezra said annoyingly.
"Trust me, I am on your side, brothers," Asher folded his hand, holding a subtle smile in his eyes.
"I was thinking of sparing you tonight because you're hurt, but I am seriously reconsidering now. You can't do these challenging things to us. It'll only excite us more and the games will turn even more dangerous if you play them so well. You'll just see what I'm talking about, Xanthea, as soon as he figures it out." Asher's eyes dropped to my lips and then to my breasts.
I raised my hands to my cleavage. My cheeks were feverishly tense under his scrutiny. Unable to bear it any longer, I averted my eyes.
"What are you talking about?" Ezra looked at me and then at Asher alternatively.
Raven tensed his brows, looked at me and then looked around, cautiously taking another step. His eyes fell on the shampoo and body wash bottles in the sink.
He cocked a brow as realization dawned on him. His eyes widened as they fell on me. Raven's face filled with an exciting madness as if the game had turned even more thrilling for him.
He ran his tongue over his upper teeth as he examined the floor more carefully. He squatted and wiped the shampoo off the floor, rubbing it between his fingers.
"Fuck!" He scrubbed his hand over his face, laughing behind his fingers.
Twenty seconds more.
The shampoo and body wash I had spilled on the floor around the walk-in would be enough to keep Raven away from me, right?
His deep laughter resonated in the bathroom, sending a chill down my spine.
He tilted his head as he lowered his hand from his face and got up.
"It's the most ordinary looking weapons that give the deepest wounds and the most normal looking plants that hold the most poison," Raven said through his chuckles. "It's the ordinary we underestimate, and our omega is clearly not ordinary."
"Wait! Did she just put a shampoo trap on the floor around the shower?" Ezra got it at last. "Damn! It's such a fucking insignificant, worthless trap..."
"Which would have worked in her favor, exactly as she wanted had Asher not noticed it in time," Raven said, his voice was grim and so were his expressions.
"Ten seconds. Raven," Asher said.
I fidgeted with my hands and night robe.
Please keep talking. Please keep talking.
Raven drew in a breath.
"Glad you enjoyed the game, omega. I can let you win and let these ten seconds pass. But no matter if you win or lose, you are gonna get fucked tonight. You kind of put me in a mood..." a smirk played across his lips. "B-but... you said..."
"Five seconds," Asher said.
"My games, my rules," Raven shrugged.
"Three..." Asher said.
Raven vanished into thin air for less than a second because, as Asher said two, Raven appeared within the walk-in shower. His eyes glowing as if he had just used his wolf to teleport.
He strutted under the shower with me, leaving not even an inch gap between our bodies that collided. A collision that consumed me irrevocably in an explosion of pain that was nowhere close to pleasure.
My gasp turned into a scream as, within a second, Raven pinned me against the wall, lifted my leg from my knee, and entered me in one forceful thrust. I could feel my insides stretch out as he filled me to my depths.
My mouth hung open up in a silent cry. My head hit the wall as I threw it back to cope with the pain. The pain hadn't even settled when he began pounding inside me roughly. "You lost, omega."
Tears stung into my eyes and flowed down my eyes, mixing with the shower water.

"Ah! Ah! Uh! Alpha... please... no! No! Please stop... It hurts. Please, umph-"
He crashed his lips against mine. Driving his tongue into my mouth, he stifled all my cries of protest. He parted, and I peered at him, panting wildly.
"Just shut up and take it," he growled huskily against my ear, nibbling my earlobe. "You've earned it, after all."
I bit my lips, bobbing against the wall, trying hard to hold back my sobs.
His thumb brushed across my lips.
"Don't bite your lips. I am more than willing to do it for you. I can bite them until they bleed. I can even lick the blood off them for you."
He grabbed both my thighs and made me wrap my legs around his hips as he kept slamming me. I felt him grow inside me.
Having sex with Raven was completely the opposite of having sex with Asher. The friction, the heat, the hurt, and the uncertainty of survival. The extreme ache that I surprisingly didn't want to end, even when my body turned sore or my legs were shaking.
My mind was delirious with pain as my body sought to turn it all into pleasure, probably to cope with the aggression. My nail slid off the glass wall as I curled my fingers into a fist.
I knew the moment I agreed to marry them that my entire life from now would be nothing but survival. And I had to survive all by myself, like I had done ever since I was born.
I had never found security in someone, not even my own father. The moment I sought it in Asher, it felt as if I was doing something wrong, committing a crime. A sin that needed to be punished and maybe Raven was the manifestation of that punishment.
A warning far more lethal than Ezra's rose from within me back when Asher wrapped his arms protectively around me. That was exactly when I knew I was taking a risk bigger than what I had taken by running into this bathroom. Risk of trusting someone, expecting something from them when I know I shouldn't.
I opened my eyes slightly. Through the water and tears in my eyes, I glanced at Asher.
Why do my eyes keep traveling back to him? What is this strong feeling I get when he is close?
Raven grabbed my jaw and made me look at him.
"Eyes on me when I have my dick inside you, omega. Don't you know it's disrespectful to look at some other man when a man is defiling your pussy? Don't cheat on me with your eyes while your insides suck my cock like a hungry slut." Asher lowered his gaze, a subtle smirk adoring his lips.
Gritting my teeth, I shut my eyes as Raven's thrusts turned more punishing and savage. Heaving, I placed my forehead on his broad shoulder.
"Ezra, shut the door and take Asher with you. Wait for me in the room," Raven commanded, sinking into my neck.
Ezra shut the door, isolating me with Raven.
My breaths hitched as Raven whispered in a velvety tone against my ears, as if he had read my mind right away.
"Asher is a dream that is bound to shatter once you wake up to reality, darling. Just a friendly warning since you're taking me like a good girl..." My chest squeezed at his words. "Ungh! W-why did you save me tonight?" I asked.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Do you think you are in a position to ask me questions?" Raven's gaze bore into me. A gaze I would normally cower away from, but right now I had nowhere to hide.
I was exposed to him, naked and ruined in a sense deeper than the physical body.

"No, it's just that... uh!" My fingers stretched on the streaked and misted glass. "Right now... I am not really thinking..."
I cautiously placed my hand on Raven't shoulder. He didn't react, so I nervously wrapped my arms around Raven's neck.
Slowing down, Raven peered into my eyes as if looking right into my soul.
I lowered my gaze and leaned in closer to him until my lips pressed against his in a gentle touch.
When I parted from him and mustered the courage to look back into his eyes, I found his drunken eyes still fixated on me, stoically.
"You are really craving danger tonight, aren't you, omega?" He growled.
With a quick gulp, I looked at his lips. "I don't know..."
"Well then, I'll make sure your body remembers me for a very long time..." he groaned smokily.
My nipples hardened against his chest. A sudden heat shot up my body. Maybe it was the shower, or his body. But something had increased the temperature of my body. Even the pain from my leg blended with every other ache into an inexplicable arousal.
Goosebumps ran through me as Raven pulled out. He put me to my feet as I panted against him. He turned me around.
"Hands on wall. I'll take you rougher every time your knees buckle," he said, forcing my palms against the wall.
I arched my back as he entered me from behind.
I shut my eyes, losing myself in the filthy noises of the slamming of skin against skin, the occasional smacking of my ass and my own brazen moans.
He pressed into me. His one hand cupped my breasts, teasing my nipples while the other made its way to my slit. He stroked, pressed, pinched my clit.
"Ah! AH!" Sparing my breasts, he entangled his fist into my hair, pulling my head back while he mercilessly fucked me to my depths, making my core pulse hotter and harder. "Not bad, omega... fuck... you feel so fucking good!" he grumbled satisfyingly.
My legs were shaking badly and I could barely stand, but I couldn't let it interfere.
He let go of my clit and hair and grabbed my hips. Fluttering tension tightened around my abdomen as he increased his motion.
His breaths broke shorter and faster, and so did mine.
"Fuck!" He groaned through his clenched teeth, releasing his load inside me.
I cried, panting and moaning louder, as his warm cum filled my insides. He continued fucking me through my orgasm as I squirmed between him and the wall.
He pulled out and held my arms, supporting me to stand.
Along with the cold water from the shower, I felt something warmer and sticky flow down from between my legs.
He let go of my hands and I flopped on the marble floor, my chest rising and falling as I tried to make terms with the burning insanity still running high in my veins. "Clean up and come out," Raven said, squatting in front of me as he tucked the wet strands of my hair behind my ear. "I am taking you to the hospital."
I looked at him.
He smiled. "You wanted to know why I saved you today? Let me show you."
