HIDDEN CABIN

I turned around and the man of my desires stood at the entrance of the corridor of the cabin. He was shirtless, sun-kissed, and chiseled sweat glistening from his neck to his broad shoulders. He held an ax in one hand, and the other fisted on the side in anger. The hair on the happy trail that led to his trousers was filled with sweat and I swallowed hard, wanting to place my lips on it. 

He cleared his throat to get my attention back to his eyes, forcing me to raise my eyes to his. "I walked from my mansion, and trecked up the woods until I arrived at your cabin," I responded and placed the jacket on the couch. 

"Go back to where you came from and never step foot in these woods again, " He snapped. 

"No way, " I shuddered. "The sun is going down, and I fear that your little friend in the woods might make a meal out of me. "

He growled, and the sound went to my cock, and Freki whimpered in need. My feet carried me over to stand in front of him, toe to toe, and his expression did not change. 

"Conri, can you not growl? My cock can't take it!" I whispered. 

He bared his teeth at me and took a step back. " Little cub, go away. I have been living in peace and don't need your recklessness near me." 

"Peace? Boring is more like it. " Moving away from him, and walked to the couch and sat down. I leaned down to take off my shoes, and once done stood up and placed them by the door. 

" You are testing my patience, " His voice was filled with a threat. 

"Go for it." I dared him, and the next minute he dropped the ax and attacked me. In seconds, Conri had me pinned on the floor. The pain in my back from the force made me yelp as Conri squeezed my neck, and I felt the air leave my lungs. His eyes glowered at me, and I wrapped my legs around his waist and rubbed my crotch on him in defiance.

He looked so shocked by my action that he loosened the hold on my neck. I took advantage at the precise moment and leaned up to press my lips on his. He froze, and I felt a tremor emit from his body to mine, making my cock harder and my body trembled. Boldness made me push my tongue out and lick his lower lip. 

I wanted Conri. Every cell in my body wanted this delicious man. Even when he growled and stared at me with hate, I wanted him with every fiber of my being. To possess and be possessed by him. 

He recovered from my shameless acts and pushed my feet away and stood up, leaving me lying on the ground. I stared up at him and my eyes lowered to his crotch and the imprint of how hard his cock was on his tight jeans made me lick my lips in hunger. 

"How can there exist a shameless person like you?' "He muttered in frustration.

Ignoring him, I raised my hand at him and pouted, "Lift me, my back is hurting." 

His nose flared as he moved away from where I was lying, picked up the ax, and stood by the window. I winced as I stood up, feeling the pain in my back from the force of landing on the hardwood. 

We were at a stalemate and if this continued; I knew he would throw me out of the cabin by force.

"I'm so hungry. Do you have any food? Where is your kitchen?" I was deflecting with my words.

"No," a one-word answer came from Conri.

"Where is the kitchen? I packed meat, canned beans, and rice on my way here." 

He turned around, and I raised my hand to interject his response.

"No, I am not crazy or mental. All I wanted was to have a friendly chat with you. I will be gone tomorrow morning and out of your hair. I need you to hear me out since what I have to say is important." Conri's shirtless state distracted me, but I needed to get him to agree to my stay at the cabin. a

"A man like you? Having a friendly chat with a rogue like me?" He sarcastically retorted.

"Yes," I nodded. 

"You are courting death. Haven't you heard the tales and rumors?" He pressed on.

"I would rather hear it from you," I pointed out and raised my hands in surrender.

"I killed my mate."

"Impossible," Freki responded. "There is no blood in his hands. I would know if he killed his mate."

"How?" I inquired.

Freki ignored my question and went back to sleep. I tilted my head to look at Conri while he challenged me with the statement. He was labeling himself as a murderer to push me away. Such an old trick would not deter my mission.

"My wolf thinks otherwise," I stated.

"You are way in over your head lil' pup," He chuckled. The sound went right to my heart, and it made me grin. He noticed the change in my mood after his laughter and he shook his head in defeat.

"Can you please put on a shirt?" I whispered. 

"Are you dictating how I should dress in my house?" He retorted, but I could tell my words affected him.

"Conri, I am a young, horny male. Looking at how your skin glows is an encouragement for my libido. I would even urge you to take off your pants." I raked my eyes over him. 

"You are hopeless."

I could tell he did not know how to deal with me by the way he rubbed his face in frustration, and walked over to one door that I guessed was the bedroom. Peeping in, there was an enormous bed, and guessed the other door was the kitchen. Picking up the trekking bag and entering the door that led to the kitchen, I placed the bag on the counter as I offloaded all the food that I had carried, and then put the bag back into the cozy living room. 

Conri walked back to the kitchen, and I watched him rub his palm on the trousers as he stared at the things on the kitchen counter. Ignoring his frustrations, I searched for pans on the top kitchen cabinets.

Bingo! Luck was on my side.

Getting the pans out of the cabinet and placing them on the cooker. Conri was watching me by the Kitchen door. "Since I am preparing dinner, go get busy with your work." I dismissed him, creating the much-needed space between us that would make us adjust to each other.
