The Obdurate Avidity

Chapter 21

            My heart began to pound at a heavy speed while grasping my chest in pain.  The familiar grinding and shifting of my bones rendered me useless to fight this.  The shades or red trailed and scattered; deepening with every second.  Feeling my shoes become tight I managed to kick them off as the nails grew, tearing through my socks and digging into the floor beneath me.  I could hear struggled whimpers escape my throat in hopes James would notice and run for the door.  My flesh began to burn as my clothing stretched and tore.  Bashing my hands deep into the stone below me, I felt it coming; my mind was being taken over, that feeling was returning, the pleasure and want was all that remained.


            Sulfur filled my nostrils while blue waves of heat spread across the corridor.  The black smoke seemed unable to penetrate the push of this new obstacle, forcing it backwards to where ever it had come from.  My mind becoming clear once again, I raced toward the invasion.  Feeling the burn of my skin instantly upon entering this strange force I dared not to stop; instead continued forward to the depths of the blackness.


            Crashing head first into the cloud without knowing what to expect I only found my self sliding against the ground clumsily.  In an attempt to recover from my fall I then dug my claws into the floor pulling back then lunging forward once again.  My senses were scrambled but still I felt the need to take a chomp at anything possible.   Crashing my teeth together rapidly with every turn of my head, only to find nothing was there.  The smoke was just that…


“Adrian” I heard from behind me.


            Looking behind me, there stood James staring directly at me.  His very being sank my heart to the pits of my stomach.  It hurt me so much to know that he was seeing me like this.  This hideous animal raging like an idiot at nothing.  It was then it hit me, he wasn’t frightened; nor was he being scorched by the flames surrounding him.  He looked just as beautiful as he did before he entered this disastrous hell hole.  Looking closer I could see what looked like another figure in behind him.  In a panic I lunged at it, not thinking of anything but the intruder.  My lungs were drained of oxygen before I could even get close.  Instead I fell to the ground watching my surroundings spin before me.  The world grew dark.


“Adrian… wake up.”  I could hear a gentle whisper in my ear.  Taking a deep breath my lungs were filled with not too fruity, not too perfumy.


“James…..   JAMES!!! Are you okay?!  What happened!”  My body jumped up before I could think, a soreness however brought me right back down again.


“Stay still you’re dehydrated, but you’ll be fine.”  James assured me.


“Are.. are you okay?”


“Yea, I’m fine.  It’s you I’m worried about.”  James smiled.


“What happened?”  The confusion returned of the recent events.


“Uh, heh I’m not exactly sure myself.  But someone seems to be looking out for us.” He stated while running his hand through my hair.


“What?  What do you mean?”


“Someone held me back when that smoke came.  Who ever it was chucked something on the ground, and that’s when all that blue fiery stuff started up everywhere.”   He explained.


“But… What happened to you?  You froze, like you couldn’t move.”


“I don’t know, I think I got scared.  And my body was really hot… that, and the smell made me dizzy.”


“So that wasn’t you that caused that?”  I felt a degree of relief run over me.


“As far as I know it was whoever helped us.  But I never got a chance to see or thank him though.  He was gone before I could realize what was happening.”  James tone of excitement was amusing.


“I didn’t hurt you did I?”


“No, you didn’t come anywhere near me.  You ran towards the smoke and started biting at it.  Hehehe! It was actually kind of cute.  Like a puppy attacking the garden hose.”  He teased trying to ease the situation.


“Ummm, James…  When ever I turn… uh… don’t call it cute!  Werewolves don’t get to be cute!”


“Hehe, well alright.  But, we gotta figure out how we’re gonna get you home.”


“I feel fine, I can manage.”  I assured him.


“Umm…  That’s not what I was talking about.”  James pointed down at me.


            Looking at myself I felt my face grow to a beat red.  My clothes were torn and scattered across the floor about twenty feet away, I was laying naked on the cold stone floor.  The only thing that made it were my shoes, but that wasn’t going to get me back home… and through the town either for that matter.


“Aw shit.”  Was all I could think to say.


“Hahaha, looks like we’re gonna have to start carrying an extra pair of clothes around with us when we go out from now on.”  James teased.


“Damn, I loved that shirt….  How am I gonna explain this to my mom?”


“Just tell her the truth.”  A smile crossed his face.


“Oh yea, like that will blow over nicely…  She’ll probably have me committed.”  I returned.


“Your mom?  Psh, I really doubt that.  She’s cool.  But umm I think we better start walking back, we can come up with a plan on the way.”


“Damn it.  Okay.”  I swallowed my grief and climbed to my feet with some assistance from James as we headed out the large doors and down the stairs, reality returned to us.


“I completely forgot it was day time.  Hey… I thought you could only turn when it was a full moon… or at least night.”  James realized.


“Dunno, guess the myths aren’t as accurate as people believe.  I know that night has something to do with it though.  Cause, I usually turn after dark, and change back when the sun hits me.”  I explained.


“Hmmm, well… somewhere you’re breaking a rule.  Cause it’s only like four and the sun’s like super high!”  He pointed to the sky with a smile on his face.


“Well maybe it was the Sanctuary, cause, that would make sense…   I mean, that’s where all these things were created weren’t they?  Maybe the normal rules don’t apply in there.”  My answer seemed good enough for the both of us.  It was a definite that the Sanctuary had best not be messed with though.


“I wish we could have seen more of it though.  But I think we made it further then anyone else in town has made it before.  We got braggin rights!”  James flaunted.


“Well… I’m not sure givin the circumstances we should do much bragging.  Not only are we already outcasts, but we also bare two of those marks…  Hey… If there are only five monster thingys… then why are there seven symbols?”  Oh wow, it was a revalation!  Hehe.


“Hmmm, good question.  I’d never thought about that before…. Maybe we left the library too soon.”  James replied.


“Probably.  Let’s go another day though, I don’t feel like going there at the moment….”  Glancing down at my present state then toward James with a smile.


“Why not?” He smiled, “I think you look great.”  He leaned towards me and tilted his head to the left, planting a nice soft kiss against my lips which sent shivers all the way to my toes.


“OooOH!”  I screamed as James pinched my exposed behind.


“Heheh! Sorry I couldn’t resist.”  He said poking out his tongue.


“You better be!  Hmmm, my lips are still tingly.”  I smiled.


            We slowly made our way back towards town, taking the trees around the outskirts to avoid any detection.  The only problem was, I would have to cross the street to get to the bushes next to my house.  There is where it was decided James would run up the stairs to the patio door outside my room, and make sure no one was there before I entered the house.


“Damn it! Why is it so busy?  There’s never people out around here!”  I panicked.


“Hehe, luck of the draw.”  He teased.


“Thanks…  Well let’s get this over with.”  I looked both ways seeing all the people doing close to NORMAL things.  How weird is that?  There were cars going back and forth on the street, kids playing soccer in the field across from my house, other people bike riding… cheesh… What Luck…


“Alright, here goes…”  James got up from the crouched position in the bushes, walking casually towards my house.  I watched him jog towards my stairs along the side, peer in a window which looked into the dining room, than carefully towards the bend to the sliding door.  Then, nothing…  It felt like forever, sitting there nearly exposed to the world.


            Then, as luck would have it  I saw James return to the rail and wave his hands for me to come.  I looked all around waiting for some form of miracle to happen and none of the people see me scamper across the street in the nude.  “GAH!”  I screamed by accident.


            Running at top speed across the street, meeting the slope on the other side…. “GGggg AAAAAaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!”  *THUMP*  I found myself on the ground mangled in a clutter, just having a ruffle of grass trip me and send me backwards then sideways down the ditch into the side if a shrub.


“You Okay!”  James yelled, trying to hold back his giggles.


“Uh huh…”  I then returned to my feet and scurried across the lawn and up the stairs.


“The coast is clear, doesn’t look like anyone’s home.”  James smiled.


            I quickly jumped into the house followed by James who closed the door behind him….  “Pffffft… HaHAAHa  HA Haaahahah HAHAa   Ahh haha HAHAHAA Wow… You’re such a klutz.”  He cackled in between bursts of laughter.


“Shut up!  I was in a panic.”  Was my only excuse… which didn’t seem to work at all.


“That was soooo cute!  The way your little butt flew in the air like that.  Wow, you’re so awesome!”  He than wrapped his arms across my shoulders kissing me gently on the lips.


“Mmmm….  You suck!”  I whimpered.


“Why do I suck?”  He smiled.


“Cause I forgive you.”  I wrapped my arms around his waist and kissed him once more.


            James returned the kiss, while leading me to my room and closing the door behind us.  I fell back on the bed, as James took off his shirt and threw it to the floor.  I felt his chest meet my own, the warmth was so uplifting.  His lips trembled against my neck while making their way towards my cheek and gradually to my lips.  His tongue parted my lips gently caressing them gliding softly back and forth.  My hands met his hips slowly finding their way to the waste of his shorts.  Without another gesture on my behalf he raised his hips to allow me to slide his lower obstructions out of the way.


            The heartbeat escaping his warm erection tingled softly against my abdomen.  His hips slowly grinding against me, my tongue reaching out for attention grabbed his own and followed me back.  Sliding lovingly in slow semi-circles against each other, his taste flowed through me.  I could feel his hands sliding up and down my arms and along my neck, while my own hands caressed the perfect plump orbs which were his behind.  The longing for this moment to happen again was right.  The timing was perfect, everything was perfect.


“oOh.”  I said surprised, as James took hold of my awaiting erection.


            His kisses travelled down my neck and chest while he stroked me gently.  His tongue carefully gliding down across my navel, along with slow tender kisses leading towards the inevitable.  The warmth of his mouth encircled my centre taking it slowly from top and slowly to bottom.  Sliding his tongue over the head of my pleasure and gradually down my shaft.  I could feel this soft breathe against the small patch of my pubic hairs, he brought his hand down to my tightened pouch; cupping them in his hand and gently stroking them with his thumb.  Breathing deeply, my hips began to press against his lips.  The timing was amazing, he knows me so well.


            With his lips stroking slowly up and down, he removed his mouth from me; stroking me with his had a few times.  Shivers shot across my entire body, while he returned to his last activity.  I felt his fingers travel between my thighs to my backside.  Sliding his hand back and forth his fingers soon made contact with my entrance.  Circling slowly, massaging gently; My hips still rocking against him soon came relaxed.  A finger partially entered me and cautiously circled a few times before proceeding.  Goose bumps travelled across my body while his finger cautiously probed me and his warm lips gently comforted me.  Before he could even get his entire finger inside me, I felt the depression of the end draw near.  My groin began to tingle and spread to my stomach.  I unwillingly sped my hips grinding.  James only responded by wiggling his finger than pulling back on my erection.  Circling his tongue against the head of his attention, he applied just the right amount of pressure….


“Oooh, damn…. UmMmm  AAahhhhh.”  The spasms took control as my hips had a mind of their own.  I could feel my muscle twitching all the way up my spine, then back down my stomach.  The warmth of my own semen dripped from James lips and down between my legs.  As life began to make sense again I pulled James up into a long warm hug.  After he had the chance to swallow a couple times he kissed me long and deeply.


            No words were said, my kisses remained sensual, as James erection still remained hard.  With no thought I wrapped my arms around his waste spreading my legs.  I could feel the warmth from the tip of his impatience against my entrance.  Rocking my backside a few times against him he soon felt himself entering me.  The pressure from the intrusion hurt a little, and grew to a sharp pain with every partial thrust.  James must have sensed this cause he seemed to draw back.  I in turn pushed towards him, forcing him to slide all the way in.  My face involuntarily flinched at the sharp pain, followed by a brief panic; James remained still.


            With only a couple of moments, I felt my muscles relax once more. Which in turn I began to move my hips back and forth from him, feeling his tenseness ease, he seemed more willing to continue.  Lightly he moved his centre back and forth, in a slow calm manner.  The warmth from his stomach against my groin felt amazing with the added sensation of his hardened warmth inside me.  I forced him closer so I could kiss him, which caused for some strategic maneuvering.  Placing my heals on his shoulders, he leaned in resting his lips on my own.  His movement was increasing; I could hear the light tap of his balls against me.  His kisses were becoming more needed while his tongue forced its way harder into my mouth.  I felt a drawn sigh come from my throat, as the thrusts from James hips became harder and more drawn out.  His lips travelled down to my neck, and buried themselves in their own little world.  Shivers once again over took me.  James drew back almost completely, circled a few times and continued back inside me.  It was then his panting became harder, and his thrusts more needed.  In a panic his lips scurried back to mine, his tongue planting itself within my mouth and pressed hard against my own tongue.  He thrust not quite three times when he paused and shook his hips against me.  A sigh escaped him as he slowly collapsed to my waiting arms.


            The sweat lightly travelled down our bodies, mixing together as one.  I could feel James heartbeat slow as he gradually returned to the real world.  As he reached to kiss me, his now flaccid penis slipped out releasing a puddle onto my sheets.  With a partial giggle we both laid together allowing ourselves for the first time in a long time to absorb each others presence.
