Little Wolf
by Amélie S. Duncan
When
twenty-three year old Tala Velsik appears in a last minute performance art
piece, she has no idea that public nudity will be the least of her worries.
Wearing nothing but silver paint and a pair of antlers, her body is bared to
hundreds of eyes, but one penetrating stare simmers through the others, Adrian
Caro.
Adrian
Caro is one of the world’s most famous directors and photographers, but with
striking features and a body made for sin, most would guess he belonged in
front of the camera.
Of
course, the last thing Tala needs is romance, even with a walking Adonis.
Mounting bills, a dead end job and a set of childhood memories most therapists
would pale at; love is low on her list. Assuming, of course, her new admirer
allows her to have a say in the matter.
Shocked
yet thrilled by Adrian’s passionate domination, Tala can’t help but feel she’s
standing on quicksand. For all his wealth, fame and talent, Adrian is tormented
by his own demons; hiding secrets big enough to destroy them both.

Excerpt
“Time to get up.” His voice pulled me from my
dreams. I gazed through my lashes, then blinked a few times at the windows and
noticed the sun hadn’t risen yet. I turned to Adrian, dressed in shorts and a
t-shirt, bouncing on his feet. True to his word, he was up and ready for me to
start his new routine.
I covered my
head with the pillow. “I thought you were on vacation,” I grumbled.
He pulled the
pillow and sheets away and handed me a sports bra, shorts, and a t-shirt.
“It gets too hot later to run,” he said in
explanation. “We’re off to Ouest
Coriche for our daily run with Henry.”
I grimaced as I put on the clothes he had laid out
for me. Once I was finished, he chuckled and tied my long, black hair in a
loose ponytail.
“You’re grumpy in the morning.” He looked sweltering
hot, and alert. He’s a morning person
too.
I scowled at him before going to the bathroom and
cleaning myself up as quickly as I could. Then I followed him down the stairs
and out to the car where Henry was waiting for us. Watching the two of them
prep like professionals made me nervous.
I did a few leg and arm stretches. “I’m a beginner,
go easy on me,” I implored.
“Dites-le nous
en français, tell us in French,” Henry teased, and they laughed in
unison.
I made a face. “I don’t know how to say it in French
yet. Uh. Facile s'il
vous plait? Easy,
please?”
Adrian
suddenly wrapped his hands around my waist and kissed the side of my head.
“Votre français
est mauvais, Your
French is awful.” I hit his arm and ran for the car, door already opened, and
dove inside.
“You
little brat,” Adrian said when he reached me. He pulled down my shorts and
swatted me on the ass.
I mewled
and giggled at the same time. “Ouch!” He leaned down and kissed both cheeks,
then helped me pull my shorts back up.
“Behave,
or there will be more.” His face was dark, and I felt a stir below my waist.
Henry
climbed in the front and called back to us. “We’ll do a few miles down the
beach to start. You’ll love it.”
I
scrunched my face. “Hey, I’m a beginner! Remember? On sand?” I whined. They
both chuckled. I crossed my arms and stared outside as we made our way up the
coast.
He was
right about one thing. I loved the view. Even with the absent sun, the swaying
palms and oceanfront was breathtaking. He parked, we checked our sneakers and
water bottles, and took off.
As the sun
rose, I heated up fast. I took frequent breaks as Henry and Adrian looped me in
the area, their set circle, creating the pace for the run. I tuckered out after
my third loop and shook my head as the two of them competed in gladiatorial
runs against each other. Even with the breeze off the water, I was too hot.
I finally
stopped. “I can’t move anymore,” I called out. Adrian came over and gulped his
water down before handing the rest to me. I took a sip and wiped my forehead.
“Get on my
back,” he ordered.
I frowned.
“I’ll hurt you. We’re too far from the car now.”
He
snorted. “I didn’t say I would carry you the whole way, little wolf.” His face
was firm, and I now knew that meant this would go his way.
I sighed and wrapped my arms and legs around
his neck and waist as he lifted me up with an ease that suggested I might be
weightless. I buried my face against his neck and inhaled. He smelled so good,
even when covered in sweat.
“What
are you doing?” Adrian asked in an amused tone. He knew exactly what I was
doing, so I only giggled. He hopped a little, and that made me laugh.
“Tala.”
He sighed my name and started walking us down the beach. I was unfamiliar with
our surroundings, right up to the car where we found Henry waiting for us. When
Adrian put me down on my feet, I spontaneously wrapped my arms around and
hugged him. He rubbed my back.
“What’s
this for?” he asked. I looked up and saw the surprise and delight in his face,
and a flutter went through me.
“Do
I need a reason?” I asked softly.
He
hugged me tighter and kissed my hair. “Never.”
