Chapter 6 Are You Ready?

APOLLO'S POV I leaned in closer, our eyes locked. Her scent wrapped around me, making it harder to ignore the pulse of my desires, and without thinking, I closed the distance, capturing her lips with mine. The initial shock in her was evident—she froze under my touch, her body tense. But I didn't pull back. Instead, I deepened the kiss, guiding her with a deliberate slowness and coaxing her to follow. I tasted her sweetness, something reminiscent of wild honey, uniquely hers. Gradually, her body softened, and she began to mimic my movements. She was a fast learner. Her tiny, breathy moans were like a victory to my ears, igniting something fierce within me. Encouraged, I slid my hand up to her chest, feeling her heartbeat thunder beneath my fingertips; her breasts were abundant for a petite woman. She trembled, and I caught the faint scent of her arousal, something that only spurred Ragnar on. "She's aroused. She liked you too," Ragnar roared. It wasn't surprising at all; all women do. "We need to take her now." My wolf was relentless. I could sense Reika's hesitation melting away. I wanted more. I slid my tongue into her mouth, savoring her taste, and she responded, her breath hitching. Every little sound she made, every touch of her lips against mine, was like fuel to a fire I hadn't realized was burning this intensely. She was a fast learner, and I am a proud teacher. "Take her now!" Ragnar was clawing at the edges of my control, eager and demanding. Still, I held him back, determined to keep things measured and careful. She was new to this—new to me—and every part of her deserved more than just a fleeting, instinct-driven touch. I brushed my lips along her jawline, and she shivered, her soft moan like a spark igniting something deep inside me. As I pulled Reika into my lap, her soft curves pressed against me, and I felt every hesitant breath she took. Her blush only deepened as I aligned her right over my hardened length. She felt it, of course. How she instinctively tensed yet didn't pull away was endearing, even slightly amusing. Ragnar huffed in satisfaction, wanting more, but I knew patience was necessary here. This is her first time. I moved with purpose, my fingers finding the hem of her shirt and tugging it swiftly over her head. Her eyes widened, but she didn't stop me. It was a silent trust that sent a ripple of satisfaction through me. With her skin exposed, I took in every inch of her. She was bare except for the delicate lace of her bra and the thin waistband of her underwear, her skin warm and flushed under my touch. I traced my fingers over her collarbone, watching as goosebumps spread in my wake. I reached behind her, unhooking her bra with ease and letting the straps fall down her arms. Reika looked at me, a momentary uncertainty flickering in her eyes, but I responded only by pressing another kiss to her lips, this one slower and deeper. The last barriers fell away, leaving her fully exposed in my arms. Her body reacted instinctively, pressing closer. Her hands gripped my shoulders, grounding her as her uncertainty morphed into a desire she couldn't hide. I cupped her face, feeling the warmth of her cheeks against my palms as I guided her, letting her set her own pace. "Undress me," I said gently as I paused. Reika swallowed hard, seemingly clueless about what to do; she remained frozen. I gently took her hands, guiding them to the buttons on my shirt, watching as her fingers trembled slightly. But she followed my lead, undoing each button slowly, her gaze never leaving mine, until she slid the shirt off my shoulders, letting it drop to the floor. When I stood to remove my pants, her eyes widened, and a blush bloomed across her cheeks as she took in the sight of my huge shaft. Women have been complimenting me about my big dick; they even praise me for it being a mouthful. I never liked aggressive women, hungry to hold a dick and shove it into their hole. But Reika's reaction was something new, although it was expected as this was her first time. She was way too cute for this. I sensed her hesitation, and that's when I cupped her cheek, my thumb brushing her flushed skin, and whispered, "You don't have to hold back with me, Reika. Let yourself feel this." I guided her hand to touch my shaft, making her shiver. "Can you do this for me?" I said, guiding her hand in fondling my length up and down. Reika swallowed hard but followed my lead, a fast learner. I'm a proud teacher. I leaned in, capturing her lips once more, deepening the kiss to reassure her, to show her there was no rush, only this shared moment between us. Reika responded this time without hesitation, her arms winding around my neck as she pressed against me, her breathing quickening. My hands traveled down, over the delicate curve of her waist and further, tracing every inch with reverence. When my hand slipped under her panty, finding her warm and ready, she gasped as I gently massaged her clit. Her soft moan was music to my ears, a sign that she was letting herself go. "You're so wet," I murmured, licking her juice off my fingers. I brushed my lips over her flushed cheeks. Her eyes sparkled with something almost like defiance as she reached up and met my gaze directly. She bit her lower lip, her eyes seemingly pleading for more. I kissed her again. I could feel her heartbeat in sync with mine, and for a brief moment, I allowed myself to consider what this might mean. When her fingers tightened in my hair, it was all the encouragement I needed to pull her closer, to press her against me, until I hastily positioned her on the sofa and guided her legs. "Are you ready for this?" I asked, gently massaging her clit. "Yes," Reika answered for the first time. I slowly shoved my shaft into her wet pussy and then pulled again. She closed her eyes. I know she could feel a little pain, but what followed gave her ecstasy as I started thrusting inside her. "Hmm...God," she uttered before biting her lower lip. Reika's pleasurable moan became louder, and I liked it. I could feel every shiver that coursed through her. She was open to me, not hesitating, and matched my intensity. Pride surged in me, knowing I was her first in this; I taught, guided her as mine. "Oh... Apollo," she pleaded as she dug her nails into my back. I knew she was so close. I thrust even faster until she cried in pleasure as she came for the first time. I kissed away a little tear from her eyes. I held her close to me, kissing her forehead. Reika hugged me without hesitation, and I allowed her. Usually, I would feel disgusted about how some women would be so clingy to me, but with Reika, it was different. "Am I disturbing something?" a stranger standing at the doorway asked. I was enraged by his audacity to enter without my permission. Reika's eyes flashed like she recognized the man's voice.
