Sold To The Untouchable Alpha
A Step Too Far

[Arissa’'s POV]

A low growl escaped Ivan’s lips as I met his kiss with my own, unable to control myself. Something about the way he was kissing me and touching me sent thrill after thrill through me, and I wanted more. I could feel something in me stirring, but didn't quite know what it was.

Taking my not fighting him as a sign to continue to move forward, Ivan cupped my ass and lifted, allowing me to straddle his waist with my legs. I didn’t quite get how this was a punishment, but I needed to regain control of my body.

"We can't,” I tried breathlessly as Ivan moved towards the bed. "There's a dead man on the floor." "Then he can watch.” Ivan growled, throwing me down.

His dark, hungry eyes took me in as I panted. Something about the look on his face and the slight swelling of his lips made my core throb and made me want him more.

"You aren't going to pretend to resist, now are you?" He challenged.

Leaning down, he placed his hands on either side of me and brought his mouth to mine once more. Unlike the first kiss that held an uncontrollable hunger, this one held something deeper, an emotion that I didn't dare touch. This was simply a passion of the moment, and I couldn't allow myself to have any expectations.

"You smell divine." He husked, nipping at my throat and making his way down to my chest. Panting, I clutched the sheet beneath me and arched my back, pressing my aching core against his large bulge.

"Is that your way of saying continue?" Ivan asked, sitting up.

Meeting my gaze, he grabbed the hem of my shirt and lifted, leaving my breasts fully exposed.

A shiver of delight rushed through me as he brought his mouth down to one of my erect nipples and began to bite and lick at it while his other hand fondled the other.

"Fuck," I growled, closing my eyes.

I had to be still in heat; that was the only explanation for what was going on here. How else could it be possible that I would allow this man to ravish me as he was? But could I let this continue? If I did, then we would cross the point of no return and I wouldn't be able to deny him anymore. Also, if we went further, he would discover my shameful secret.

Something about that realization was like a slap in the face, sobering me instantly. Shooting up, I quickly scurried from underneath Ivan, leaving him staring at me in confusion.

"What are you doing?" He asked, beginning to move towards me.

"No," I hissed, holding up my hand. "We can't.”

We couldn't continue and we couldn’t go further. We were unmatched, and I wouldn't allow myself to be buried too deeply in false passion and expectations. If this leads to him being angry at me, so be it. Maybe that was for the best.

"Why are you suddenly refusing?” Ivan pushed. Though his tone held an edge, his eyes held a questioning concern that made my heart flop in an odd way.

"Because I suddenly became disgusted at the thought of fucking my uncle.” I sighed, pulling my mask of indifference back into place.

I would consider what just happened a lapse in judgement and I wouldn't let it happen again. It couldn't and if he kept his word, he wouldn't push me. At least then nothing would change.

"Do you see this?" Ivan asked, pointing to the bulge in his pants. "You did this and now you're saying you don't want to fuck me?"

Surging forward, he slammed his hand on the headboard beside me. His eyes flashed in anger, and his aura began to slowly radiate from him.

"T-that's right.” I tried, keeping my facial expression neutral. "Go find your bimbo to help you with that problem.”

For a moment, he didn't speak; instead he just stared into my eyes. By the twitch of his jaw and the flashing of his eyes, I knew he was trying to remain calm. Maybe he just didn't want to scare me away, or maybe he was actually trying to understand me. Either way, I didn’t want him to stay here any longer.

"Now that we are done, please leave." I said slowly, making my tone cold. "I need to take a shower to get your disgusting scent off of me.”

[lvan's POV]

I stared into Arissa’s beautiful blue eyes and tried to figure out what exactly was going on in her head. Despite her attempt at acting tough, I knew that she was having some type of inner struggle. The slight shake of her voice and how tense her body was said that much.

"I still owe you punishment.” I said, sitting up on my heels. "How many more times will you call me uncle before you learn?"

If she wanted to hide something from me, then I was going to try that much harder to find out. I didn't like secrets, nor did I like mysteries.

"I said to leave.” Arissa growled. "I don't want to have to look at you anymore.”

"That's too bad.” I chuckled. "Now that you're acting like this, I don't want to leave you that much more."

"Are you a masochist or something?” She huffed, bristling. "You seem to really enjoy being teased and taunted. Not to mention, you seem to really enjoy having to walk around with blue balls. * That was more like it. The angrier she was getting with me, the more she was beginning to relax. At least I now knew that whatever was bothering her wasn't that bad.

"Is that your way of saying you're worried about my balls?" I asked, lifting my eyebrow. "If you are that worried, then help me with it."

Grabbing her hand, I tugged so she came toppling towards me. I wrapped my arms around her frail frame and bit down on her earlobe. Earning myself a yelp of surprise and pleasure. Even if she said she didn't want anything to do with me, her body said otherwise.

"That's your punishment.” I whispered in her ear. "Each time you call me that, I will bite you somewhere. Next time I may bite those delicious nipples. "

I watched in amusement as her eyes widened and she pulled away, tugging her shirt back down. It seemed she had forgotten that her perky breasts were still exposed.

"Anyway, I'll send some guards to come get this man.” I continued, standing up and adjusting myself so my hard-on wasn't so painful. "You get yourself cleaned as you wish and get some sleep. Meet me on the grounds tomorrow night so we can hunt.

Lifting my hand, I waved before heading out of Arissa’s room, leaving her sitting in the middle of her bed with a dumbfounded look on her face.

Letting out a laugh, I made my way to my own room while sending a message to Carina through mindlink. I guess I would do as Arissa suggested and use her to solve my problem. I could only hope that soon enough I could do that with her, but I was a patient man and would slowly bide my time. It would simply make it that much more satisfying when I finally conquered her, and I truly looked forward to that day.
