Captured by the Beast [SS#2]

Chapter 17

"This is truly beautiful. I'm surprised that it's not hot here, but I guess that's the Idetrians magic?" I inquired as he nodded. "By the way, what are those large cushions for?" I glanced over at a nearby cushion as his eyes followed. Its size was almost the same as my small mattress back home.

"To relax on or in my case, for napping purposes. They're big enough for my people to lay on and spread out our wings." He explained while flopping down on one before spreading out his wings. This was my first time seeing his wings fully out. I had underestimated how huge and wide they were. "Come lay with me," He patted the cushion as I eyed him suspiciously.

"Only if I get to touch your wings." I bargained as he chuckled. "No promises that I'll stay awake." I quickly added before kneeling down as he pulled me down, causing me to land roughly on his chest. "Oof."

"Sorry, I didn't want you to quickly change your mind." He laughed as I pushed off his chest to stare down at him.

"You've become much bolder, Mizail. And let me not forget, mischievous." I shook my head as he smiled up at me before soft thumping grabbed my attention. "What's that noise?" I questioned just as it stopped.

"Ah, that's my tail. Sometimes I can hide it with my powers but it has a mind of its own." Mizail sighed as I sat up properly, unknowingly straddling his stomach until I looked down. Heat covered my entire body as warmth pooled between my thighs. I've never felt this feeling before. The playfulness quickly disappeared from Mizail's entire being as we stared at each other. It felt like electricity filled the air between us as my body grew more sensitive. Even the slight movement from Mizail made my body feel weird. "Nuri," He softly called while staring at me with dark eyes.

"Mizail," I breathed out while slowly placing my hands on his chest. "I think I'm sick. My body feels weird." I told him as his hands came up to hold my waist. The coolness of his touch sent a shiver through my body as my nipples perked up. "Is this normal?" I questioned as he sat up straighter, shifting me into his lap.

"You're aroused, my mate. Your body is reacting to my touch and my body. Have you never felt this way before?" He inquired while staring down at me as I shook my head. "Fuck, you smell so sweet." He mumbled while nuzzling my head as I hummed in questioning.

"I smell? I don't have on any perfume or moisturizer." I softly shook my head as he laughed in my ear.

"No, my mate. I smell your arousal." He explained while pulling back to look down at me. "That's dangerous. Are you hot?" He questioned as I nodded. "Let's go run you a cold bath and turn in for tonight." He smiled while releasing me as I stood from his lap on shaky legs. He quickly guided me to one of his bathrooms with his arm wrapped around my shoulders to steady me. "Sit here while I run your bath and get your things." He instructed while seating me on the toilet while I nodded. It didn't take him long to get the water running before he rushed out of the room. I quietly eased off the toilet before heading over toward the large in ground tub.

"Fuck," I whispered as the warmth between my thighs returned. Was this what being aroused felt like? Had I missed out on something that felt this good? I felt dazed and fuzzy all at once as I slowly ran my thumb over my nipple, squeezing my thighs tight. "Oh fuck," I softly breathed while doing it again as the same sensation filled my entire being. A soft knock barely brought me out of the haze as I turned to see Mizail's arm peek through the door and drop my bag. Whenever we ate dinner together, I'd always pack some clothes to sleep over in.

"I brought your bag. I'm just going to step out for a minute. When you're done, you can go to bed." He called from the other side of the door as I listened to his voice. It was doing things to my body. "Nuri," He softly called out as I hummed in reply. "Take a bath and get some rest."

"Okay." I called back while easing out of my blue romper and my underwear as it pooled around my feet. "If something happens to me, would you come save me?" I asked while easing into the tub.

"Always." Was all he said before I heard his footsteps growing more distant from the door. I took my time bathing while feeling and exploring this new sensation. Eventually, I ended up in the guest room with barely any memory of how I dried myself off or managed to get some clothes on before I passed out.

The next morning, I woke feeling refreshed and clean. Stretching into the sheets, I slowly got out of bed while making my way over to my bag. I took my time getting dressed while fully waking up from my sleep. As I pulled on my long dress, all of yesterday's events flooded into my mind. Why was I like that? I was completely fine before I fell onto Mizail's lap. It's like everything went downhill after that though. Frowning, I tried to think back on everything Mizail had said.

"Wait, hold on. He said he could smell my arousal? So, he smelled me last night?" I asked myself as my entire body heated in embarrassment. At least he said it smelled good. A small voice in my head whispered as I groaned. "Not the point. He could smell me. Ahh!" I quietly screamed while shoving my night clothes into my bag before slinging it over my back. I needed to ask him what he meant! I need to hear it from him. I quickly raced out of my room and into the living room where he usually was when I woke up. But, he wasn't here. Strolling into the kitchen, I looked around for him as well bur he wasn't there.

Just as I was about to leave the kitchen, my eyes fell on a wrapped plate with a note on it. Quickly grabbing the note, I read over its content before sighing. Mizail had wrote me a letter basically saying that he'd be busy for the next few days and to not come visit him in the mean time. He also added that he had made me breakfast and listed off what the ingredients were and what the food was called.

"Well damn," I cussed while grabbing the plate and exiting the kitchen. It felt weird to eat by myself in Mizail's home so I'd just take it with me and bring it back washed and cleaned. Stopping at the door, I quietly did up my sandals before tying my cloak and tossing my hood on. Maybe I'd see Mizail soon. I told myself while exiting his home, not knowing that he was still there.
