Chapter 169

“If I hurt you, I will heal you,” Sebastian said, walking toward Anna later that evening. “I will try not to, but I am not often with an Elder-Mistress.” He grinned sheepishly. “I am a little excited.”

Anna smiled nervously and nodded. She didn’t want to be hurt. She glanced at Alex, who sat on the bed, watching. He gave her an encouraging smile. This was it. She would be giving of herself to Alex. Willingly, save her fear of being hurt. She had no idea if it really could be a pleasurable process, and Sebastian’s words weren’t exactly encouraging.

Sebastian sat on his heels on the floor on the soft rug and pulled Anna down between his legs, her back to his front. Slowly, his hands ran up and down her thighs and he murmured in another language. Her eyes closed and she melted back against him as he brought his hand slowly up to her breasts. He pinched her nipples, the pain as sharp as a knife, and kissed her neck before biting the junction of neck and shoulder. Her nipples throbbed as his teeth dug into her neck. He released her and soothed the bite with his tongue. Goosebumps appeared all over her body as he ran his hands up her arms, to her shoulders, and once again grasped her nipples in the knife’s grasp.

She moaned softly as he pulled and twisted. The pain was doing something to her head and she grew dizzy.

“Good girl,” he murmured. “Let yourself feel.”

It was all she could do: feel his breath, hot on her neck; his fingers running up and down her arms and legs; his cock pressed into her back.

She shivered and moaned as he explored her pussy with long fingers. He spread her open, pinched her clit, pulled the inner folds of skin and then finally pressed inside her.

“So wet and swollen, Anna,” he whispered. “Beautiful.”

The room spun. She couldn’t open her eyes, even if she wanted to. Her body was completely under his control. He traced circles around her sensitive spot with his wet fingers, gradually increasing the intensity. After a few moments, a powerful climax crashed over her, causing her to scream out in ecstasy. He held her back against his body and played with her clit again, making her come over and over again. Tears streamed down her face at the intensity of the sensations.

“This was just our warm-up, love,” he whispered, then lay her down on her belly.

He kissed her back and shoulders and made his way down to her waist and ass. His tongue swirled around her ass and she moaned as he pressed his fingers inside her pussy and tongue-fucked her ass. He rubbed the roof of her pussy and made her come again with a shudder. The orgasms were melding into one continuous pleasure wave.

His hot body stretched out over her and they intertwined fingers. He bit her neck again and she felt him take control; take her body for his own. Their minds melded as she anticipated their bodies joining.

Bright colors filled her vision as he brought her to her hands and knees and began to enter her. She stretched around him and she whimpered as her body struggled to accommodate him. He leaned over her, kissing her back and shoulders as he filled her.

“Feel, Anna. Feel the pain and the pleasure. Together, they make ecstasy.”

She stiffened and cried out in pain as he reached her cervix. She tried to pull away, but he held her firm. He massaged her breasts and kissed her back as he pressed forward. More pain as he went deep into her body.

Fear cooled her passion. He was hurting her, just like Kaveh had. She twisted, trying to get away again as her tears fell to the floor beneath her face. The pain intensified as he swelled inside her and she screeched as she felt her entrance tear.

“Yes, Anna. I know it hurts. But I will heal you. Trust me, Anna. You were made to take me as I am.”

She stiffened and screamed again as she felt him go deeper and widen more. Her arms shook terribly and she could hardly hold herself up. Sebastian put one hand on the floor and supported her with his other arm. Her body was on fire. Her stomach cramped. She whimpered and cried, trying to get away, but he held her tight.

He pulled out a tiny bit. “Feel the pleasure in the pain, Daughter...” He slammed back into her body. Her eyes rolled back into her head at the instant orgasm that came from his violent thrust. He did it again and again and again. Her body filled with the purest of light. Pure pleasure. Pure orgasm. The light consumed her; waves rolled over her that took her higher and higher. There was no pain, there was no body. There was only orgasm.

Alex watched Anna’s face contort in pain, tears streaming down her face. She scratched against Sebastian’s grip and Alex stood to pull her away from the Immortal. Sebastian was hurting her. He had promised he wouldn’t, and he was.

He walked around the bed toward them. Sebastian held up his hand and an invisible force pushed Alex back onto the bed and held him there.

“Let her go, Sebastian!” he bellowed. “You’re hurting her, let her go!” Irina hadn’t reacted like this. She’d been writhing in ecstasy the entire time.

Anna screeched and Alex’s eyes watered. He struggled against the invisible force holding him on the bed. What the hell was Sebastian doing to her? Why was he hurting her?

“Anna!” he shouted. “Sebastian, let her go!”

Sebastian pulled back and Alex relaxed, thinking he would let her go, but then he slammed back into her and Anna stiffened and screamed again. But this scream was different. Her mouth was wide open and her eyes tightly closed as if... she was climaxing? Her face flushed and her neck muscles strained as Sebastian pounded into her over and over again.

Sebastian growled and let out a primal yell as he thrust deeply into Anna’s body. Was Anna breathing? Her back was arched as if Sebastian was pulling her up by her hair, but Sebastian’s fingers were pressing hard into her hips. Their bodies seemed frozen in a permanent orgasmic state, and Alex could only stare. It had not been like this when Sebastian had taken Irina. Sebastian hadn’t seemed to have lost control with the Russian Elder-Mistress like he was losing it with Anna.

After what seemed like hours, Anna slumped forward, her chest on the floor. Alex lunged forward, surprised that he could, and gathered her into his arms. She was limp and barely breathing. Sebastian sat back on his heels, hands resting on his thighs and chest heaving. His cock was still large and semi-hard, but dripping with Anna’s juices and... was that blood?

“What the hell did you do to her?” Alex punched at Sebastian’s chest with one hand while he cradled Anna with the other arm.

Sebastian grabbed his fist before it made contact and looked at him with glowing blue eyes. “No,” he said in a low voice, filled with warning. His skin was glowing, and he looked very... Immortal.

Alex yanked his hand away, never having seen his friend like this. Sebastian leaned forward, resting his forehead on the floor in front of him. His rib cage expanded and contracted as he gasped for breath. Another thing Alex had never seen in his friend. What had happened?

He looked down at his beautiful wife with regret. She was so pale, her dark hair sticking to her face in sharp contrast. Her chest and face were covered with a sheen of sweat. He smoothed back her wet hair and rocked her gently. “Anna?” he whispered to the limp body. He put his fingers to her neck and was relieved to feel a pulse. “Anna...”

“She will be okay, Alex,” Sebastian said in a hoarse voice after a few minutes. “I have never...” The Immortal shook his head. “I did not realize how powerful she was before... No wonder Devin was able to do what he did.”

Alex glared at Sebastian and noticed, although he was glowing, his face was pale. “What do you mean? Why did you hurt her?”

Sebastian sat down on his hip and reached out for Anna. Alex pulled her away. “Let me heal her. I tore into her pretty hard.”

Alex growled. “I know.” But he allowed Sebastian to touch her.

Sebastian placed his hand on her lower stomach and closed his eyes. Anna groaned, but didn’t awaken. “I took her,” he said softly. “I took her as I took Irina, but her power overwhelmed me. I could not...” He gave Alex a sorrowful look. “I could not control myself. She came inside me and consumed me. I had to get control or I would have killed her. That is why I hurt her, Alex. Her pain pulled her away from me enough for me to get control again. I am sorry. I had no intention of doing that, but if I had not, I would have killed her.” He stroked her thigh slowly. “I still lost it at the end. Her orgasms are very strong. I could feel her coming, but she didn’t feel the pain at that point. She was beyond knowledge of anything except pleasure.”

Alex looked down at Anna again. Part of him was proud that her power had overwhelmed Sebastian. Another part of him was frightened. “Why is she so powerful?”

“She is in touch with her humanity. That’s the simplest way to explain it. Her ability to love combined with the powers of the Half-Immortal. It can be powerful and it can be dangerous. I have not known a Half-Immortal to rage in centuries. Not since we changed how the humans interacted with them.”

“You know she killed her guardian?”

Sebastian nodded. “That was one of the things I brought up to my brothers. The very fact that she was pushed that far was a stunning piece of evidence.”

“She almost raged the night of the Gala.”

“She did? Why?” Sebastian tilted his head. “And how are you still alive?”

Alex shrugged, trying not to jostle Anna too much. “I saw what was happening and got control of the situation. I think she was angry at Devin, though, not me.”

“It doesn’t matter who she is angry with. She will kill anyone around her.” Sebastian studied him carefully. “You two have a very powerful bond, Alex, for you to be able to control her like that.” He smiled. “That is good. What we are doing will strengthen that bond and enhance your ability to confront Devin when it is time.”

“I didn’t tell her about her rage. I didn’t know if—Sebastian?”

Sebastian didn’t seem to be paying attention, instead, he was staring at Anna.

“Sebastian?”

“You can control her. That—?” He paused. “That would be good for the others to see when you confront Devin. The very fact that you can control her supports your claim to her as more legitimate.”

“You want me to take her and induce a rage at a funeral gathering?”

“I think simply seeing Devin will be sufficient for her to do it to herself.”

“She’s not been given permission to go. I was going to speak to Vati about it, but we ended up fighting...” Why bother asking if she wouldn’t want to go?

“I think she should be there. She has a right to see the end.”

“That’s dangerous. She could kill everyone. Devin could get ahold of her.”

“Devin trying anything with her would certainly induce a rage. And if she does, you best make sure your relationship with her is solid. And that you... partake... of us regularly.”

Alex shook his head. “I can’t make her go through this again.”

“It won’t be like this next time. I wasn’t prepared. I know now what to expect. I can keep control of the situation.” Sebastian grinned. “She had a fantastic orgasm, and if you make the next part pleasant, she will be more willing.”

“How do I do that?”

“You don’t know how to pleasure your wife with your mouth?”

“I—Of course I do, but is there more?”

“Stop when you see her fading. It will show her you care about her. She will want you to take it all, but you don’t have to. Show her you’re different from Devin. Once you’re done, I will revive her and you can make love to her.” He grinned. “Or we both can.”

Alex frowned.

“You might be surprised what you’re in the mood for.”

“If you and I start having sex on a regular basis, my men might get jealous. We were each other’s only lovers for the last few years.”

Sebastian chuckled. “Get her onto the bed. She should awaken soon.”
