17 HER BARE SKIN
ATLAN
Raquel was now getting used to the life of his castle, he could tell about how she was feeling happy about the things she saw in the castle.
In her quest to explore, she still thinks he was an ordinary wolf. That's why she could tell him her deeper most secret.
“Hey, big Wolfie, come along this way, I have to see the lake.”
Did she just say lake? What in the goddess' name was she talking about? That was his private spot, where he always takes his bath.
He wondered who might have told her about the lake. This was so confusing because everyone knows the place was his favorite lake.
One thing he knew was the fact that she rarely talks to anyone. She never talks to anyone. His beta knows better than to let her know about his lake.
So who else could be such a loud mouth.
Suddenly, he remembered there's someone she used to talk to, who was none other than Audrey. Yes, it must be Audrey because she knows everything about the lake.
Atlan shook his head, thinking that the women are just too talkative. He watched her climbing the rocks on her own, which led to the lake.
She's indeed strong, they must have taught her well because he is used to seen the soldiers as they call them training in other to defeat their enemy.
Good thing even the humans know how to defend themselves. He remembered when he was still in his human form, he used to train with the warriors in his kingdom.
He used to be very good in combat, even when fighting in his wolf form.
If only his parents had trusted him to fight then, he believed he would have defended them, no matter how strong their opponent may be.
“Big Wolfie, are you coming?” Here she goes with the name again. He followed behind her until they got to the lake.
“Wow! It's beautiful.” Atlan felt proud upon seeing her admire the scenery. She ran around the lakeside, admiring everything she sees.
“The owner of this place must have keen eyes for a house plan.”
Did she just compliment his castle? That's so not bad, he guessed. She ran around the lake while he sat himself at the edge of the lake watching her play like a little child.
Seeing her this happy made his wolf calm and happy. It was indeed something good having her in his castle.
But he's not going to be hopeful of anything because he still do not know what goes on around in her head.
She might be happy today and choose to run away tomorrow, who knows.
Suddenly, he saw her unfastening the buttons on her chest.
Oh boy, is she trying to do what he's thinking?
She must have totally forgotten that he's there else she won't be trying to take off her dress. Damn! She just took off her dress and he became confused as at that particular moment.
“Shut your eyes, Wolfie.” He should shut his eyes? Was she kidding him? She's totally off her clothes. Though he wasn't really watching her fully, but he could see her from the corners of his eyes.
Damn it! How did he not think of the fact that she would have to take off her dress to take a bath? Honestly, Atlan so wanted to turn around fully and see just how the white skin looked.
He watched her get dipped into the water, and that was when he turned his gaze towards her. She immersed herself up to her chest with her back against him.
Atlan stared at the little human lady with her beautiful milky skin. Her hair so dark and long. She's a real beauty and he just saw how beautiful she was right now.
Atlan began walking around the edge of the lake watching her every step of the way. She splashed water on her face while scrubbing at her skin. He watched her every move. She splashed the water on her neck which looked so smooth and enticing.
He haven't seen a woman this close before, and seeing her this up close made him develop some strange feelings towards her. He just wished he could touch her skin. He peered down at his clawsand he felt sad. Hee wished he could get to know how it feels to touch a skin again, or even touch a woman. He's never touched any woman in his life because his curse wouldn't let him.
Suddenly, he noticed someone was coming toward the lake. It might be one of the guys, oh no, he cannot let anyone see her without cloths.
Atlan made a loud growl, thereby making whoever that was coming go back.
“Is there someone coming, Wolfie?" He turned his gaze at her, as she stared at his direction. She had wet her hair, which gave her a seductive appearance. Atlan stared, even in his wolf form. He wondered how he would feel if he were to be in his human form. She was damn tempting and seductive.
After she was done taking her bath, she left the lake with her bare skin. He quickly averted his gaze as his heart began palpitating. He knew he was in trouble, and he needed to control himself so as not to be tempted to touch her.
Besides, there was nothing he could do since he was a wolf anyway. They went back to the castle the moment she was done with taking her bath.
"Wow, I feel so good. I guess I have to be doing this everyday."
Atlan would have creased his brow if he was a human. It took all his will and power for him to be able to resist her body, now she's talking about doing it again.
There was no way he would come with her to the lake. But then there's no way he would let her out of his sight. To he able to keep his wolf tamed, he has to be wherever she is.
His relief now was the fact that she feels comfortable with him around. Unlike the first time when she would almost scream her lungs out at him, simply because she was scared of him.
She must have thought that he was an ordinary wolf, since she was so free in getting naked in front of him.
