Ember felt like her heart would jump out of her chest.
It wasn't merely due to surprise; her senses were warning her about the grave danger she landed herself in once again.
'Waah! How come you're back so fast?! What happened to 'won't return before the day ends'? Erlos, you liar!'
Draven had appeared inside the study when she expected his absence and she was caught looking at his personal belongings without his permission. Wasn't this a familiar situation?
Ember silently swallowed. She was scared of him doing indecent things again and she would be forced to rest her body the entire day. What if he gives her punishment for being caught? Then what awaits her...
She could not bear the following embarrassment--and, and! She had important things to do! She had no desire to waste her days keeping up with her overly energetic mate! No, no, this cannot be!
"Draven..." she tried to say, but could not continue words because she could feel his head lowering behind her, his hot breath brushing against the delicate lobe of her ear. His hands gently cradled and squeezed hers, and her heart seemed to stutter when she found him inhaling her scent at the crook of her neck.
"D-didn't I say, say that...that I don't want to see you and talk to you?"
She tried her luck as she remembered how he respected her wishes and left without meeting her the previous day. Maybe he would listen again, unfortunately, she was being far too optimistic.
"I am behind you. You cannot see me," he replied, his lips leaving a trace of light kisses on her smooth neck, "and you don't need to talk to me if you don't want to."
Trying to resist his seduction, Ember briefly closed her eyes. She wanted to argue, to hurl back some witty response at what he said, but his skillful teasing was muddling her thoughts. She tried to calm her senses to no avail. Though her mind wanted to remain rational, her body was ready to give in to her mate's advances. The effect of the bond was making it difficult for her to reject her mate.
"Draven, the map..."
"I am not stopping you. You can continue what you are doing," he said gently before biting her neck.
His intention was clear--that he would not let his mate go when she herself came to him. He tried his best to stay away from her but now she was here...with her smelling this delicious... His study was filled with her sweet scent, making him lose his mind.
Light gasps left her lips as she tried to speak, "I...need to learn...understand... this map...I need to focus..."
"Shall I help you to learn and understand it then?"
She felt his lips brushing against her cheek as his hoarse voice sounded like the temptation to her senses, hard to resist.
She audibly gulped. "Then...you need to stop this so you can help me...."
"I can help you like this as well," he said and moved his face forward, such that the sides of their faces brushed past each other, causing her to gulp once more. His hands remained holding her hands against the desk, such that he could move her right hand along with his to touch the markings on the map.
"This is Agartha."
"I know--" The rest of her words were caught in her throat as she was caught by surprise. "W-What are you doing?!"
His other hand had found its way towards her skirt, starting to lift it up.
"Teaching you," he replied as if that naughty hand wasn't his and continued to move her right hand on the map. "This is the mountain range that acts as a natural barrier surrounding our kingdom."
Ember clearly could not focus on the map as her attention was diverted by the naughty intentions of Draven's left hand.
"Your hand..."
"It won't stop you from learning this map," he replied and moved her hand once again. "These mountains are what you see through your window."
Though he was explaining to her, his main focus was somewhere else as well. On his hand which was slowly sliding under her dress from below, now slowly, tenderly, playfully heading to that precious place between her thighs.
"D-Draven, you can't..."
"What I can't?"
"You..."
"Last time we were here, I left you frustrated. As a good mate, I need to make up for it," he replied, which reminded her more of that particular day. Back then, she came to him to tell him she was ready to consummate their bond. He pushed her against the desk and almost touched her intimately.
"You...ahh... you... don't have to...hnggh!" she tried to speak, but it was as if not only were his fingers playing with her body, but also her mind. She could not form a coherent sentence!
"Focus on the map, Ember, or you will miss learning," he whispered against her sensitive ear, his hot breath causing her to shudder, and the poor tortured soul of his mate tried to hold onto her sanity as much as she could.
'Is he for real? How can I focus on the map when he is....making me feel so good again...no, not good at all.'
Draven once again moved her right hand along the horizontal line of mountain ranges. "This long mountain range here, it divides the continent into two parts."
"Ah, you...ahh..." she let out a loud lewd sound as his fingers found their way inside her. She tried to clench her thighs together but it was impossible to stop his hand.
She was trapped, trapped between that huge desk and her mate. With his large, solid body towering behind her, his arms caging her in, he was not giving her even an inch to move away from him.
"Draven, no, that's too much, too soon..." She found it difficult to even look at the map with what he was doing to her body.
"Shh, pay attention to our geography lesson. We have barely started. This map will take a lot of time for you to understand completely."
"Nngh, but...ahh...like this, I don't think...I don't... we can even complete it--"
She was biting her lips, trying to keep her moans buried, but the next moment, a cry of pleasure left her lips. She had to bite her lips harder afterwards.
"You can, if you focus," he said, which made her open her mouth, wanting to retort. However, she could only moan in response.
'He sure wants to torture me. How can one focus while playing with my body like this?'
He moved her hand towards the part of the map west of Agartha. "This is a vast land, see this? This is a dangerous forest, and beyond these mountain ranges are territories that humans claim for themselves."
Ember wanted to clench her right hand in a fist, but his hand was holding onto it firmly, guiding it along the map. Her other hand already gave up on trying to restrain his hand under her skirt; it was now gripping the edge of the desk. Amidst her distracted thoughts, she listened to Draven's low, seductive voice reciting the names of the human kingdoms, and it was absolutely impossible for her to remember them under the torturous pleasure he was giving to her. However, her mind cleared upon hearing him say a familiar name.
The Kingdom of Valor.
Just as she opened her mouth--
"Nggh, ahh...ahh! Draven, you!" she felt her breath stuck in her chest as she realized that a hard, throbbing length was buried inside her.
When did he...?
Amidst his ministrations, Ember tried her best to focus on listening to him introducing the kingdoms, half her attention on his hand guiding hers along the map, and it was unknown when he exchanged his fingers for his manhood.
All she remembered was he parted her legs, her dress was lifted up, and his fingers were misbehaving. Before she knew it, he was inside her.
