KIERAS POV:
I can feel his eyes burning a hole in the back of my head, my whole body feels alive with energy, it feels like I'm vibrating. Even though he isn't close to me His scent hits me like a train and is all consuming. Woodsy earth tones, hints of citrus and spice. My mouth waters from it and my unfortunate instincts have me wondering if his blood tastes the same. Most species have a distinct smell.
Fae always have an earthy tone since that is the most common element we call upon. Vampires often smell like metal and something sweet, I'm assuming from blood consumption. And lycans scent is a mix of well. Floral scents and puppy smell. The men are usually graced with the latter.
I hear Timmy walk back through the kitchen door and make it to mystery man's table placing the stew down, he tells him the food is 7 coin and walks away leaving me alone with a bottle of some kind of home made whisky that I imagine tastes like lycan piss.
I hear him eating a few bites and then he lets out a small low groan and my thighs immediately clench. Holy thoughts Kiera holy thoughts. I bring the whisky back to my mouth and gulp down a few mouth fulls.
I wasn't expecting him to come down here again. Maybe I should make a break for it and go back to my room. Yes and I'm taking the bottle too. It's unusual for me to feel... shy... when I'm attracted to someone and hungry for a fun night of pleasure, I almost always get what I want, But this situation is different. These feelings are different and I haven't even spoken to this man. I'm not sure how long I sat there debating with my self on what I should do, but before long I start to stand from my seat and immediately feel heat at my back. I'm clutching the bottle like a life line and my breathing becomes shallow.
"Leaving so soon?" He asks. Fuck the lady bits have their own fucking heart beat. His voice is like a sirens call.
"Um yeah, yeah... just a bit tired." I let out a nervous laugh and clear my throat. My heart is basically beating out of my chest which I'm sure he can hear. I feel him grab my arms and slowly turn me around to face him.
Look at the balls on this guy, I'm usually the one making the moves. This is it world... the first time I'll shit my pants in front of a sexy God. Im still clutching the bottle of whisky with a white knuckled grip and I refuse to look up and meet his eyes. Though the option I have right now isn't good for my lady bits either. My face is right in front of his chest that it poking through his v cut tunic and I can see his chest rising and lowering almost as fast as mine is.
Gods his scent. Him being so close is making me dizzy, I'm trying very hard not to wobble on my feet. He slowly skims his fingers up my arm, along my neck and across my jawline. I have to fight back the moan that almost comes out. Fuck me why am I reacting this way? I don't know this man, and I've had one night flings but Why do I feel like his hands are all over me.
His thumb is resting under my bottom lip now and his fingers are curled under my chin. My eyes are still glued to his chest and he slowly starts to raise my chin forcing my head to drop back. My heart beats faster and my breathing quickens even more. I quickly shut my eyes. Kiera you pussy bitch........fuck. I know my head is back far enough that if I open my eyes I'll get sucked into his sapphire pools.
"Open your eyes beautiful".
Oh Gods. I keep them closed.
"……Open" he says in a commanding tone
Oh fuuckk. I immediately obey and open them which causes our eyes to collide. We both inhale sharply and get lost in each other for what feels like forever. His hands dropped from my arm and chin and are now gripping the counter behind me boxing me in. My breathing is still shallow and I can't look away from him. He's beautiful. Commanding. Confident... over powering...
I open my mouth to speak. "I-...."
"Yes?" His voice rumbles through me.
"I- um..."
I try to swallow through my dried throat as my eyes glance down to his mouth that's slightly tipped at the side. This is obviously amusing him.
"Ryder!" a man calls from behind making me jump slightly. I see the man before me close his eyes shut and take a deep breath before releasing me from his confines. His eyes open and land back on me and he says-
"Well, since you now know my name, I'd like to get to know yours." He says with a gravely tone as he waits for a reply. All I can do is stand there with my mouth slightly open and my brain unable to function.
"Hellooo, Ryder..." the man says loudly again making Ryder close his eyes again and run his hand through his hair. He turns to his buddy who is waving him over insistently. Ryder ends up walking over to the man he checked in with as they start to have a whispered discussion i can't hear. They Must've thrown a barrier up....Fucking Gods I won't survive here with him around me.
As Ryder and his friend speak together off to the side I see this as my opportunity for escape and quietly slip out of the tavern section, quickly racing across the hall and up the stair case. At this point I'm sprinting with the bottle still in my hand and I'm fishing for my key. i quickly unlock the door, slam it shut and lock it.
My heart is still pounding I can hear it in my ears and I feel the only option I have is to stand in a cold shower. I'm ready to explode and I'm filled with sexual tension you'd need a fucking God sword to cut through. It's always been one nights stands when I just wanted to feel something. But this... this scares the fuck out of me. It's just sexual tension... no need to worry I scoff. I walk into the bathroom and start to strip off my clothes and armor carefully laying my swords and dagger on the bathroom counter.
My hands are gripping the counter and I look at myself in the mirror, Gods Kiera you don't even know the man and he has you feeling like this?Scoffing again I turn the shower head on and step into the stream. Gasping my hand lands on the wall as the cold water shocks my system back and my heart rate begins to lower. After a few minutes I turn the water to a slightly warm temp and wash my body and hair.

Minutes later I get out of the shower and wrap the towel around my head. Calling upon air and fire, I use it to dry the moisture on my skin. In a few seconds my body is completely dry so I walk over to my bag and fish out the crap pair of shorts and tank top to wear to sleep. Just as I'm getting into bed I hear a knock at the door. Fuck.... If I don't answer they'll go away.
"Hey darlin it's Renae I just wanted to check in on ya before I close up downstairs!"
Ugh thank the Gods. Walking to the door I open it to see Renae in the hall holding her check in booklet.
"Thanks for checking in Renae, Everything is good on my end." I say with a smile, that quickly fades when Ryder reaches the top of the steps. FUCKING FUCKERSON. I didn't want him knowing which floor I was on or which room I was in for that matter. He immediately locks eyes with me and I watch as his gaze slowly makes its way down my body, I feel the heat from his stare and my nipples harden.
"Alright Kiera, I'll see y'all tomorrow okay? Have a good night to you both." Renae says with a smile and makes her way down the stairs. Im frozen from... what? Anticipation? Nerves? I don't know. Ryder slowly starts to make his way down the hall to stand in front of me.
He slowly leans forward and my heart leaps in my throat. I hear him inhale. Is he?....smelling me?.
"Mm..." he groans out and leans back to look me in my eyes. His eyes seem darker, heated, like the blue sea when a storm rolls through.
"I'm glad I caught you before you went to sleep." He says in a low tone. He raises his right hand and wraps it around my throat and my eyes grow wide. what the actual fuck is happening right now...his thumb moves in a circle around the pulse on my neck.
He leans down and his lips are barely touching the base of my ear. "Truly Lucky timing, since you left me without saying goodbye, Kiera." His voice sends shivers through me. The sound of my name coming from his mouth almost has my knees weak. Fuck im down bad right now.
"Your scent is.....intoxicating."
He whispers seductively. I feel my alter ego come out and say ooohhh fuck yes, I'm a bad girl who needs a lesson on all things Ryder.
NO NO....NOPE okay play time is over.
I call upon the air element and use it to fling him down the hall about 10 feet away from me. I see the shock in his face and I let out a nervous giggle "this was great, see ya tomorrow!" He quickly replaces his shocked look with a sexy smirk as I basically bolt back into the room and slam the door locking it right after and run to my bed.
What the hell is going on with me. I don't even know this man and he's making me feel like this. I know fae always act on instinct especially when it comes to their sexuality. If they want something they usually get it and They definitely aren't prudes. Really? This was great?....... See you tomorrow?...... ugh kill me now. My bad bitch energy has officially shriveled up and died.
Turning the lights off I roll over in the bed and lay there, my breathing is still heavy and I feel heat and flutters from my stomach to my pussy. Fucking hell. My nipples are still hard and at this point I don't think a cold shower will help anyone. Only one option left then, might as well make it count.
Closing my eyes, My hands slowly move to my chest and slowly circle my nipples. I give them a quick pinch causing me to let out a soft groan. And I let my hand travel further down my sternum, softly down my stomach and through the waist band of my shorts. My moan comes out a little louder as I reach my clit and start to circle it.
My hips buck a little. Fuck. My other hand dips down and I quickly insert my finger inside my pussy and start to move. The heat surrounding my body makes it hard to hear. I know I'm moaning but can't tell how loudly. With my eyes still closed he invades my mind.
This is bad, I shouldn't be thinking of him...or the way his hand was tight around my neck. How his fingers felt brushing across my jaw line. How his voice sends vibrations through my body or how his lips barely felt against my ear. How it would feel if it were his fingers inside of me picking up speed and his tongue moving in circles around my clit, sucking and teasing. Playing with my breasts and driving me cra- "fffuuccckk" I let out a moan as my body explodes and sends shock waves through my system. Fuck.. fuck.. I am for sure going to hell.
After catching my breath I quickly make a run to the bathroom to clean up and wash my hands. I lay back down in bed Pulling the covers up and rolling onto my side, I'm mentally unstable...ugh but it was good and got the job done. My thoughts slowly drift from absolute self shame to where my current situation is. it's nice to finally have a bed to sleep on instead of leaves or the ground. And with that final thought I slowly drift to sleep.
I wake up with no knowledge of the time and for the first time in my life, I feel like I've had a full nights of peaceful rest. Sitting up I stretch my arms out and groan, slipping out from the covers I go to put on the new armor and leather I got from claire. I should've asked how to properly wash these things.
I make a mental note to ask her later today. Making sure everything is tight and strapped I look in the mirror and admire what I see. Damn I'm lookin smexy. I head for the door and unlock it slipping outside into the hall. No sign of Ryder or anyone on the floor so I quickly make my way down stairs to see if Timmy serves any kind of breakfast.
I nearly trip over my own feet when I see Ryder and his friend talking to Timmy and laughing together. Ugh please don't be awkward. Slowly I walk to a bar stool away from the men and wait for Timmy to walk up to me.
"Morning girly, I make a mean omelette if yer interested in at?"
"Sure Timmy that sounds amazing." I said with a smile. Timmy turns to walk into the kitchen and I'm left alone and thoughts from last night creep into my mind, creep being the important word here. I know for a fact my face blushes bright red. Oh gods... you dirty girl Kiera. Fuck. Quickly glancing over at Ryder, I find both men staring at me. This causes my body to jolt and go stiff. My eyes widen for a moment before quickly looking away.
I hear them talking but cant make out what they are saying, a sound barrier again? What's with that? Are they some kind of important fae or something? Oooo what if they are spys..A few minutes later Timmy comes out with a plate filled with a beautiful looking Omelet and my mouth waters.
"Gods Timmy this looks delicious."
"No problem girly, enjoy, oh Cyphrus asked me to tell ye to give 'em a visit later on. Said sum about wine?"
Again I can't control it when it comes to the wine but a growl rumbles through my chest and makes Timmy throw his hands up with aight shocked look. Both men to the side look at me with the same expression and I clear my throat, looking down at my omelette.
"Sorry, he knows how I feel about the wine. Thanks for letting me know Tim" that makes Tim start howling with laughter and causes a smirk to appear on my face. I eat the omelette in peace and when I'm done Timmy takes my plate and heads back to the kitchen.
Before I leave I glance once more at Ryder, him and his friend are currently enjoying their meal and I head to the stairs. Once I'm out of sight I use some vampire speed to run to my room. I grab the wine and make it half way down the stairs in 2 seconds flat. Niiiceee.
Heading for the front door of the inn to avoid a certain someone , I feel the heat of his stare at my back and I book it out of the door and make my way over to Claire's to ask about the washing situation for the leather portion of my armor.
