[Arissa's POV]

I bit back my yelp of shock as Ivan began to lead me away from his father and his father's beta. No matter how I tried to swing it, I had started this act and needed to see it through until we were finally alone. Once that happened, I would simply escape.

"Don't even think about it.” Ivan chuckled too close to my ear. "You've got me all riled up and are going to do something about it."

Shit, I had woken the beast and I was too weak to truly fight my way out.

Letting out an irritated huff, I found myself regretting using my abilities to their max to help this pervert. Sure, killing those hunters and torturing the beautiful Gisele had been a rush, but now I was left helpless.

"You know I wasn't being serious, right?" I shot back as we rounded the corner and began to make our way towards Ivan's room."

"Doesn't matter. You used me to taunt my old man. Now it is my turn to use you."

Use? What exactly was running through this man's head?

When we arrived at Ivan's room, his fuck buddy Carina was there scantily dressed. When her eyes flicked to us and took in our position, they darkened and her red lips fell into a frown.

"What are you doing here at this hour?" Ivan asked, taking her in. "I don't recall calling for you.” Now was my chance! With Carina here to help Ivan, I could escape!

"Since you seem to have company..." I began, starting to try to untangle his arm from around me. "I should...”

"Nope," Ivan smirked. "You stay and," he continued shifting his eyes to Carina. "You should leave."

I felt shock run through me at what Ivan had just said. Why was he telling the woman he was always fucking to go away? It didn't make sense.

"But, I came all the way here.” Carina tried, lifting her large eyes to Ivan's. "Are you really going to make me leave?” Moving forward, she lifted a hand and prepared to touch Ivan's arm, but stopped as a growl of warning left his lips.

"I vaguely remember telling you that I would no longer be needing you." He rumbled icily. "Now, leave!"

I watched with wide eyes as Carina flinched back due to Ivan's harsh tone. What the hell was I witnessing right now?

"I-lvan...."

"I SAID LEAVE!"

A small whimper escaped Carina as tears began to well in her eyes. After a long moment of staring at Ivan with longing, she finally turned and ran away as sobs escaped her.

Keeping my gaze fixed on her shaking frame, I continued to watch until she turned down a corridor, disappearing entirely. Now all that was left, was Ivan and myself.

"Um..." I began, unable to keep my thoughts to myself. "Why did you just scare away your friend with benefits? How are you supposed to get your jollies off now?"

I immediately regretted opening my mouth when he turned and gave me a hungry smile.

"I see a perfectly capable woman right here.” He purred, opening the door of his room and ushering me in.

"Wait..." I yelped. "I haven't agreed to anything!"

As Ivan shut the door and brought his dark stormy eyes to mine, I felt an odd sensation rush through me. This was bad. I could say I didn't want him til I was blue in the face, but my body did say otherwise. I was beginning to crave his touch and was shocked to find I wanted more.

"Want to continue to push me away?" He asked, pushing me down on the couch that sat in the middle of the room.

"What are you doing?" I demanded as he yanked his shirt off and tossed it on the floor beside him. I felt a tug below my belly button at the sight in front of me. Fuck, he was well built and that sprinkle of chest hair scattered across his pecks gave him a somewhat rugged look. He looked damn good and despite myself, I wanted to reach out and touch him

Biting my lip, I slowly snapped out of my daze. I couldn't give in, I wouldn't. Although by this point I was beginning to wonder if it would be better to give him what he wanted. The sooner I did, the sooner I could leave and go somewhere far, far away from all of this.

"What's going through that head of yours?" Ivan asked, sitting down beside me, throwing his arms along the back of the couch so one brushed my shoulders.

"Just wondering if I should just go along with your ridiculous idea so I can finally get away from you." I responded honestly.

I knew it was bold of me, but I didn't care. His heat was radiating against me and his scent was invading all my senses. Never had I felt this pull towards someone and it scared me.

"Did you finally fall for my charms?" Ivan smirked, leaning in closer. "Or maybe your perverted nature is finally showing itself in front of me."

"Who knows?" I shrugged.

What would it truly hurt to give myself to this man? Neither of us truly cared and nothing serious would come from it anyway. Not to mention, tomorrow wasn't promised and I would hate to not get a taste of such a fine creature.

"Who are you and what have you done with Arissa?"

Jumping, I took in Ivan's lustful gaze and felt a rush of heat race through my body.

"Maybe I'm getting tired of this place and am ready to leave?"

As I spoke the words, a pang of pain stabbed at my heart.

No, no, I couldn't get attached to him or this place. I truly did need to leave sooner than later. Feeling my resolve strengthen, I shifted myself so I was straddling Ivan, catching him by surprise. However, it didn't take long for him to recover and snake his arms around my waist.

"Don't regret your choice.” He warned, lifting one hand and tangling it in my hair. "I don't like games."

Smirking, I let him push my mouth against his so he could begin to devour me.

"I will only regret one thing my entire life." I whispered around his lips. "However what I'm about to do isn't it."
