Fated to the Werewolf King
18: Jayce

When he received a call from Damion that Lily was in trouble, he sure as Hell wasn't expecting for him to carry her into the pack house conference room unconscious with Erica and Doctor Marshall in tow. Damion kicked down his office door, interrupting a meeting with a couple of council members.

"Sorry gentleman, duty calls.” Damion said to them as he laid Lily down on a couch staged off to the side. One of the council members turned up his nose at the sight of two humans in the room.

"Take them out of here. What were you thinking bringing humans into the pack house?" The council member seethed, but Jayce punched the wall near the council members.

"Get out!" He roared at them. They both inclined their heads to their Alpha before fleeing from his rage. Doctor Marshall shut the door behind them. "What the Hell happened to her?" He demanded with a snarl as he looked toward Damion.

"We used chloroform on her." Erica stated bluntly.

"You did what?!" He roared, turning his gaze on her.

"This was the best course of action. We had no other choice, Alpha. Jasper has gotten into her head.” Doctor Marshall explained. Jayce felt his claws sharpen at the name.

"How? How did he get to her?" He yelled, trying to hold his Wolf back, but it was a losing battle. "She seemed off this morning. She had this massive headache that brought her to her knees. I've never seen her go through that before.” Erica told him. The woman that didn't think too kindly of him before had completely turned away any ill feelings toward him. She was scared and worried for Lily.

"He was in her head at the office. I could drive him away for a short time so she could explain what was happening.” Doctor Marshall said, looking uneasy.

"And?" He asked through gritted teeth.

"Jasper was mentally raping her.” She said. Jayce stared at her as her words settled in.

"Oh, shit." Damion shouted as he jumped behind Jayce and restrained him as he began to shift.

"I'll kill him!" He roared, trying to throw Damion off of him. Erica moved away, fear in her eyes. Jayce.

Jayce froze, his eyes darting over to Lily. She still laid there motionless aside from her chest rising and falling.

Wait, was she breathing faster?

He shrugged Damion off, kneeling beside Lily and noticed the pain in her knitted brows. He grabbed her hands, tightening his grip on them. She didn't wake.

"Dammit, wake up!” He yelled, surprised at the emotion in his voice. He was shaking from anger and fear. Fear for his Mate. Fear for the woman he was coming to love.

"Yelling at her won't do anything.” Erica raised her voice at him.

"Babe, calm down." Damion tried to coax her.

"Don’t babe me!" She yelled at him, "Do you love her?" Erica turned back to Jayce. Jayce stared down at Lily, watching the pain twist across her face. His Wolf growled, clawing and biting to get out. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Yes.

"Dammit, do you love her?" Erica shouted at him.

"More than anything.” He whispered. Admitting it aloud made his chest swell up with emotion. He brought Lily's hands to his lips. "I'd give up everything if it meant taking her pain away forever.” He said. Jayce felt a hand on his shoulder as Doctor Marshall knelt beside him.

"Lend her your strength.” She told him. Jayce looked at her in confusion, but his Wolf growled in understanding. Intense heat spilled out from his core, overflowing into Lily's body. He could feel his Wolf spirit embracing her, protecting her from that monster.

Lily's eyes shot open, and she lurched forward, gasping for air. Tears streamed down her face as she took in her surroundings. Her eyes landed on Jayce, her bottom lip quivering.

"Jayce... I'm sor..." he pulled her into his arms, crushing her against him. He inhaled her scent, feeling her body, her hair. Jayce felt her clutch at his shirt, clinging to dear life. "He got in my head. I don't know how. He was in my dream last night." She said.

"Lily, you're okay now. You're safe.” He told her, but it was more on trying to convince himself. He needed her to be safe. To be happy again. In order to do that, he needed to kill Jasper.

"Let me see her." Doctor Marshall said to him. He was reluctant to let her go as the doctor inspected her face. "Good, it looks like you're in the clear.” She said, standing up again, "I'll be getting a ride back to the office.” She turned and saw herself out. Lily looked around at everyone.

"I... He wouldn't..." she stammered as she tried to explain herself. Jayce pulled her back into his arms, cradling her.

"Don't. None of this is your fault, Lily." He said to her, feeling her cling onto him again.

"He came into our home..." she muffled into his shoulder, "He touched me... He violated me." He felt her arms tighten around him. Jayce could feel the anger in her heart. It startled him. He's seen her get mad before, but this feeling was something else. She was furious. He pulled back to look at her face.

"I'm the one that's sorry.” He said to her, wiping the tears from her face, "I should have been able to keep him away from you.”

"You can't keep him from my head." She said, and he growled deeply.

"I should! What man would I be if I can't fully protect the woman I love?" He shouted. She stared wide eyed at him as he openly confessed.

"We're going to see ourselves out." Damion chipped in from behind him. Shit, they were still there? Erica made a light argument, but Damion got her out of the room to they could be alone.

"Say it." Lily said to him. His brows furrowed together as his hands rested on her cheeks.

"I love you, Lily." He said with more confidence now. His Wolf brushed against the surface of his soul. Lily's hands went to his face.

"Again." She said, their faces getting closer together.

"I love you." He said again, his Wolf howling. He thought his heart would burst. She kissed him, filling it with every ounce of her being. He returned it deeply. His Wolf breached the surface, flowing his strength through to Lily. She pulled away with a gasp.

"What was that?" She asked him.

"My Wolf is lending you his strength." He said, bringing her closer to him, "Now you say it." He told her.

"Say what?” She said innocently. He growled at her, a light smile on her lips, "I love you, Jayce." Jayce turned over in his bed, feeling the silk sheets beneath him and a smooth, warm body beside him. As the sun shined in through the blinds, his eyes rested on Lily's sleeping face. She was resting on her stomach, her hair like a curtain over her face. He looked over her naked back, his hand tracing the large scar. It still infuriated him that Jasper still got to her, but that bastard made a grave error. He's close. It won't be long until he had his claws tearing him to pieces.

Lily stirred in her sleep, her tired eyes peeking through her hair. She sat up slowly, her hair still shielding her face. His eyes immediately went to her visible breasts, his cock hardening in sight. "Good morning." She said to him, letting out a yawn. She stretched like a cat, her ass high in the air as the blanket fell away.

"Morning. Did I wake you?" He asked her as she laid out over his chest and stomach. His hand rested on her soft ass, giving it a gentle squeeze.

"No. I just needed to be up early.” She said as she snuggled against him. His other hand came up, brushing his fingers through her hair slowly.

"Going to check out the bookstore?" He asked to clarify. She nodded, her fingers tracing circles on his abs.

"Erica and I are doing one last walk through before the big day. I won't lie. I'm a little nervous.” She said, sitting up and looked at him with her beautiful green eyes.

"You'll have guards with you at all times. My best soldiers. They know what he looks like and what he is capable of. Jasper won't be able to get through this time." He said to her.

"It's not about him or your men. It's just..." she held out her arms where scars engraved her skin, "It's supposed to be hot tomorrow. I don't want to suffer in jeans and a sweater again, but I don't know what to do.” She said with a pout.

"I'm assuming you don't want to expose yourself this way.” He ran his hands up her arms. She shivered at the electrical touch. "Have you thought of covering it up with makeup?" He asked her. She raised a brow that could have disappeared into her hairline.

"How often do you see me with makeup?" She asked him.

"Never. You're just naturally beautiful.” He smiled at her. She blushed at his words.

"Well uh, my point being," she hurried on, "I don't know what to use to hide these. I don't really have the knowledge of a beautician.” She said.

"Why not ask Erica?” He suggested.

"Erica likes her make up dark for my liking. And well," she ran her fingers through her hair, "she may not admit it herself, but she's crazy about Damion. She's spending time with him after we're finished at the store.” She said to him. Jayce watched her pout at that. It was unfair that he couldn't give her the time she wanted together, but it was almost done. Almost over.

"Well, your last option is Penelope.” He told her as he flipped her onto her back. She let out a gasp as he pinned her beneath him, his hips between her legs. He lowered himself enough to not crush her with his weight as he kissed her. She moaned in response, her hands running up from his lower back.

"Why?" she asked breathlessly as he moved down and sucked on one of her breasts. She arched her back into his mouth, his arm snaking underneath her, holding her steady.

"She owns the top makeup industry in the world. She might have something for you." He told her through nibbling on her nipples. She moaned softly, her hips trying to reach his, but he held her firmly against him.

"I'll try..." she moaned again, the sound like music to his ears. He moved his other hand between her legs, rubbing her clit in slow circles. She squirmed beneath him, powerless against his hold on her. Her moans gradually getting louder as she closed in on an orgasm. He stopped. She whimpered softly, her body shaking. He directed himself to her entrance, waiting there as he looked her body over. Sweat glistened on her skin, making it shine in the sunlight coming in through the window. He savored it, burning her image into his brain.

"Jayce?" her voice called to him, bringing his attention back to her face. Her eyes sparkled in the light, her face flushed as her hands rested on his face, stroking his cheek. This was all new to him Passion. Gentleness. Love. After everything she had been through, he wanted to give it all to her.

"I love you, Lily." He said to her, holding her gaze. She smiled up at him, a genuine smile only meant for him and him alone.

"I love you too." She replied. His Wolf pushed his way to the surface, his eyes shifting over slightly. His fangs sharpened a bit. She appeared startled for a moment before smiling up at him. He entered her, his cock thicker as his Wolf makes his presence known. Her fingers clutched his face instantly as she stretched around him until he filled her up completely. She panted beneath him, her body shaking from taking in his large size.

"Lily." He groaned, kissing her as he thrusted slowly. She moaned against his lips, her legs pressed against his hips. Since their time in the hallway, his Wolf has settled down more. Enjoy these tender moments with her. Of course, he'd still love to fuck her until she couldn't walk, but it was a step in the right direction.

Her tongue wrapped around his, stroking it as his thrusts increased in force slightly. The bed rocked with his movements, the headboard pounding against the wall. Her hands made their way over his shoulders, running down his back until her hands rested on his ass and gripped gently.

Cheeky woman.

"Jayce." She moaned out, the walls of her sex squeezing around him, making him thrust harder. He growled deeply, the vibration rumbling in his chest. Her sex tightened in response.

"Lily!" He grunted loudly, feeling the build up as he reached down, his finger pinching her clit. Her eyes widened, letting out a scream as she came hard. He joined her, pressing his hips against hers as he released himself inside. He snarled, leaning over her, his eyes wandering over her body. She trembled beneath him, her eyes shut as she tried to catch her breath. His fangs ran over his mark, kissing and sucking on it. She shivered, her hips dancing against his.

Oh?

"Easy Vixen." He growled down at her.

"You started it." She threw back at him, her nails clawed at his back lightly. He arched his back, his fangs still bare.

"I don't think you can handle another round.” He grunted as she grabbed his hair and pulled. He looked down at her, watching as a defiant look crossed her face.

"Try me." She said to him. His Wolf growled pleasantly at her and Jayce thrusted in again. She moaned, releasing his hair as he thrust again. He focused on the power of his thrusts driving into her sex, listening to her moans in approval. His headboard rammed into the wall over and over, and he knew a hole was forming. Lily was bringing out the Wolf in him, and he had to tread lightly. But with her nails on his back, and her face lit up with the lust she felt for him, his Wolf was doing anything but holding back.

His claws came down on her hands, pinning them above her head as he licked her neck, her collarbone, and her breasts feverishly. Her legs wrapped around his waist as he pumped into her. "J-Jayce!l" Her voice let out, her sex squeezing the life out of his cock. But he didn't ease up. He thrusted his cock in as deep as he can get it, making sure to hit every spot of hers to give her the ultimate pleasure. He watched her face now as her eyes rolled back as he angled his hips slightly. There.

He continued to hit that spot, her face lit up with unfathomable desire.

"Lily." His voice took on that guttural tone as his Wolf continued to move in. His fangs slightly longer than before, narrowed in on the Mark he left her and bit her. She screamed as she came. Her sex convulsed around him, her walls squeezing the life out of his cock. He came next, filling her up even more than before. He released her neck, watching as his saliva settled on her open wound and healed it instantly.

Lily trembled beneath him, her hair a mess around her face, sticking to the sweat that covered her body. Her entire body was flushed now. He pulled out slowly, their juices overflowing as he collapsed beside her. He was out of breath for a change.

"Your heart..." she said weakly, her eyes shutting, "It's beating so fast." He peered over to her, confusion taking over.

"You can hear it?" He asked her, but she shook her head slowly. Her hands came up, resting over her chest where her heart was.

"I can feel it. It's going as fast as mine.” She said, her eyes fluttering open and gazed over to him with a sweet, gentle smile.

“Interesting.” He mumbled to himself, before cradling her face with his hands, "Are you okay?" He asked her. She looked at him with a raised brow.

"I feel like I'm on cloud nine.” She smiled, leaning into his hands. He sighed in relief, stroking her cheeks.

"How long have you been keeping that side of you locked up?" He asked her. She blushed brightly, taking his hands and hides her face behind them.

"I haven't..." she said. He removed his hands, searching her face.

"This was the first time?" He asked her. She bit her lip.

"No?" She pulled the blanket over her head to hide her embarrassment, "I felt the same assertiveness when we had sex the first time.” She reminded him. He recalled when she grabbed hold of him through his boxers and practically ordered him to Mark her.

"Never with another man?" He asked her. She shook her head, still hiding beneath the blanket. He let out a sigh of relief and pulled her against him, "Good. No other man will." He said possessively. Lily glanced up from behind the blanket, looking up at him. A knock came to their door.

"Don't mean to interrupt, but I need to steal your girlfriend.” Erica called from the other side of the door. Lily gasped, looking at the clock.

"I'll be right out!” She called back to her, "I'm running late. We're supposed to be at the bookstore in an hour." She panicked, struggling to get herself together. Her legs wobbled beneath her as she made it from their bed to their closet.

"You'll be fine." He said, but it didn't stop the panic that was already settling in.

"We have to talk to the manager. We need to decorate the booth.” She was rambling off a list of what needed to be done. He let out a sigh as she grabbed a long sleeved blue sweater and jeans, getting out of bed. He wrapped his arms around her, pressing her against his chest.

"Breathe, Lily." He whispered into her ear. He felt her relax, her breathing steady.

"Thank you.” She said to him, turning and kissed his cheek. His cheeks flushed lightly as she got dressed, "Have a good day at work.” She smiled at him before rushing from the room. His Wolf growled.

"I know. I know.” He grumbled back at the beast. His heart was rampaging in his chest as he got ready. She has been the only one to ever make him feel like a mess. "She's ours, and only ours.”
