Chapter 20: Why?

Ryder kissed Ava passionately while his hands caressed her body, his long fingers leaving a trail of lust on her body.

Ryder had wanted this for so long, he had craved her taste and her touch for a while now but had always denied himself. But today, he could no longer control himself.

"Ava, you have no idea how much I have desired you." he whispered.

"Then show me." Ava whispered back.

Ryder kissed her again while his eager hands pulled down the straps of her gown. He pulled down her gown and her gorgeous breasts came into view.

His hands held her breasts and caressed her nipples till they were erect in his hands.

Ava moaned at Ryder's touch. Ryder's hands wandered down, his hand touched something rough, Ryder looked down to see that Ava's skin had been branded. It was the mark of an outcast. It was only given to werewolves who had committed heinous crimes, Ava's offense didn't warrant such a punishment.
