"Just don't invite him in." 

 That's what David had told you when he informed you to stay away from the cave for the next couple of days. 

You were confused when David had met you at the entrance the night before, you were fully prepared to spend the night at the boardwalk with the boys and your favorite vampire, but David had quickly shot down those plans. "Wait...A rut? Like how animals have ru-" 

"Yes, just like that" he told you as he walked you back to your car. "You see when we go into these, we are very dangerous to you, if you were a vampire, you would be ok but since you're a human you're far more..." 

"Fragile" you finished, the boys had all told you that before, taking it upon themselves to protect you all the time because you were "like a China doll" in Dwayne's words. 

 "So, you understand why it's best if you just stay away for a couple of days" he explained, to which you could only simply nod as you climbed in your car. Your thoughts suddenly taking a turn as you thought of him...they were all extremely attractive...him especially...and you knew him taking a partner for a quick time was something he had done before, a lot according to the others...would that happen again? After all, if he was gonna kill them anyways why not? It didn't matter if they were fragile right? But why did that thought make you wanna cry even more in this situation? 

 "It's not like that" David's voice broke you out of your thoughts and you were unsure if he had read your thoughts or could just read your emotions. 

 "Go home y/n, don't overthink, you can come back soon" he told you as he shut your car door, watching as you started the car and rolled down the window when he knocked "and one more thing" he told you while leaning in. "Just don't invite him in." 

So here you were, sitting in your room, listening to music and drawing, wishing you could just go hang out with the boys, you hadn't really realized just how much of a staple in your life they had become until now. 

Nights seemed boring without them...without him. Sighing you sat your sketchbook down on your nightstand after you realized that in your zoned out state you had successfully sketched what was probably the twentieth picture of him that resided in the book. 

Stretching, you got up and changed the music, putting on your favorite Guns n Roses album, the cords of Rocket Queen starting as you began dancing around. You had joked to Paul on more than one occasion that he reminded you of a combo of Duff and Steven, a compliment in his eyes. But your body came to a halt when you heard knocking on your window, slowly turning, your breath and heart picking up as David's words rang in your head again. 

 "Just don't invite him in" You wondered if it would be stupid to pretend you weren't here, they all would know you were here, where else would you be? Again the knocking came, this time accompanied by a voice. 

"Sugar come on" the shiver that went down your spine was visible as you heard Paul's voice, it was a voice you had only heard a few times and that was when he was vamped out, his usual cheery tone with an underlying growl and gravel. 

"Paul" you spoke quietly. "Yeah, it's me baby, just let me in" 

"I-I can't," you replied after a moment. "Why not?" He asked, his voice deepening a bit. 

"David told me not to" you told him, listening as a low growl rang out from the other side of your window."David doesn't know what he's talking about," he replied. 

"Paul I'm not sure-" 

"Just let me in!" He snapped, and you jumped at his hard tone, having never heard it directed at you before, it made your heart race even more as you feared even approaching the window now. As if sensing your fear you heard Paul...Whimper? "I'm sorry baby I didn't mean...I promise I can explain it all if you let me in... please Sugar" he pleaded, and you knew if you could see it he would be giving you that puppy dog look he always gave to get his way. "Please y/n...it hurts" he whined, and you knew at that moment he was telling the truth and not that he was just trying to trick you...Paul only used your name when he was being completely serious. 

Slowly walking over to the window, you drew back the black out curtains you had installed in case any of them needed to stay at your place and looked out the window. (E/c) met yellow as you stared at one another, his eyebrows were drawn upwards, a pleading look on his face as he stood on the small balcony that was attached to your room. 

His jacket was also gone, something you took note of since he wore his Jacket as much as Marko wore his. "Paul" you breathed once you opened the window, you leaned out a bit and instantly Paul was on you. 

Lips locked against yours while hands gripped your face, tugging you closer, claws scratching your scalp before you felt him tugging your hair, you head being pulled back as he explored your mouth, fangs scraping your lips as you tasted the faint taste of weed on his tongue, you were shocked you didn't taste blood, had he not fed? That seemed to be all your brain thought of because at that moment it was short circuiting at the fact that, holy shit Paul was kissing you!! The scent of leather, weed and something that you could only describe as simply Paul surrounded him, but it was almost like it was cranked up to a hundred, making you dizzy. He quickly pulled away, seeming to suddenly remember that humans need to breathe and rested his forehead against yours as he watched you catch your breath. 

His skin burned compared to his usual coldness. "Let me in baby" he spoke slowly, hands running down your neck, he watched as you nodded but he knew that wouldn't work.

"I need you to say it Sugar" he told you before asking again. 

"Can I come inside?" He asked and you felt your face flush as you looked into his eyes...you had a feeling that question was about more than one thing. 

"Yes" you breathed, and instantly you were back in your room, Paul's lips on yours once more as he quickly pushed you towards the bed. 

"I'm gonna make you scream my name" he told you as he began tearing at your clothes, fuck why was this feral side of him so fucking hot?! You watched as he suddenly stopped, his body hovering over yours as you lay on the mattress, he leaned closer to you and inhaled, before letting out a shaky breath. "Fuck you smell so fuckin good when you're horny" he growled, finishing the job of tearing your clothes off before he began pulling his own off like they were burning him.

"W-wait you c-can smell-" 

"Every fuckin time, every time you came into the cave having just read your "Romance novels" or just some randomly dirty thought crossed your mind and you started dripping" he growled again, his body now completely uncovered and you swear you started drooling at the sight, holy shit, his top never left much to the imagination but seeing him totally naked was like your own romance cover come to life. 

"You don't know how hard it is for me to not just drag you off to a dark part of the cave when that happens" he breathed against your neck, his lips descending to start creating marks that would let everyone in Santa Carla know that you belonged to him. 

"Why didn't you?" You breathed once you were able to find your voice and you felt Paul stop, another growl leaving him before his kisses started up again, much harder and now paired with nips, while his hips began grinding against you, his hardness gliding easily against the wetness that was already running down your thighs. 

The feeling causing the both of you to moan.

"I'll taste you later I promise Sugar, but right now I really need to be inside you" he spoke, his voice strained but still having that growl to it, a deadly combination for you it seemed, because you were more than willing to wrap your legs around his waist and arms around his neck. 

That seemed to be the only signs he needed because the next thing you knew he was pushing into you, the wetness helped some, but it did nothing for the stretch of him. 

"Oh shit" you panted as you looked at him, his eyes watching you intensely as he continued to push forward until he completely bottomed out. 

Only then did his eyes close and a moan leave him, meanwhile you were gasping at the utter fullness you were dealing with, he was so much bigger than you had imagined, and yes you were not above saying that you had imagined this before...many times...even when he was vamped out. The feeling of him pulling out brought you back to reality and your eyes met again just as he slammed back in, a moan being knocked out of you. 

"I can't be gentle baby" he warned you, his breath already becoming labored from holding himself back.

"I know" you told him, this was what David was worried about, their strength and raw power paired with no control let loose on your human body...You knew, but still. 

"I'll try to stop...If it gets too much...But I can't promise I won't completely lose it" he told you, and watched as you simply smiled, before pulling him down for another kiss. This seemed to be all he needed as you felt him shift, hooking your knees over his arms before letting go. The kiss was quickly broken as your body bounced quickly with his thrusts, he had warned you about not being gentle, and he was correct. 

His body leaned over yours, hands planted beside your body as his pace continued to become faster and harder, a constant low growl now coming from him as he watched where you connected. "Fuck" he groaned, claws digging in and ripping your sheets as he threw his head back, eyes shut as he pounded away, moan after moan leaving both of you. 

"Fuck you're mine" he growled, eyes locking with yours again before he leaned further over you, pressing your legs into your chest and now hitting that spot inside just right, your eyes rolling back as he continued his brutal pace. 

"Say it" he told you, nipping at your lip to bring your attention back to him."Say you're mine, say you're my mate." 

"Oooh fuck Paul" you gasped, trying to wrap your head around his request, your delay didn't seem to sit well with him though if the snarl that vibrated your chest was anything to go by. 

"I-I'm yours. I'm y-your mate" you moaned weakly, trying to catch the breath that was being constantly knocked out of you. 

"My mate" he all but purred, forehead resting against your chest as he listened to your pounding heartbeat, he swore it beat in time with his thrusts and the thought had him moaning, the thought that the thing that kept you alive was beating in time with him, in his fucked-out brain that solidified even more that you were his mate. He felt you start to tighten around him as the slick sound of skin on skin and his growls echoed in the room. 

"You gonna cum already baby? We haven't even gotten started" he let out a breathless laugh as he watched you, your head tilted back and eyes closed while your mouth opened, moan after moan leaving you. "Cum for me baby" he purred, his pace never slowing as your brain began to become fuzzier, the coil inside you winding tight before completely snapping, a shout of his name tearing from your throat, while his pace never faltered. Your senses slowly coming back just in time to feel Paul flip the both of you over, you now straddling him with trembling legs. He lifted you easily before dropping you back down onto him, gaining the quick pace yet again as he thrusted up into you. 

You may have been on top, but it was very clear who was in control, the term power button didn't even begin to describe him at that moment. 

He watched your body shake on top of him, your breasts bouncing, your breath coming out in quick pants while your head was thrown back in ecstasy, cries of his name ringing out in the night, and your legs trembling on either side of his hips. 

Another growl left him at the sight, and the thought of seeing you like this more often, completely lost in pleasure, completely his. 

He could feel his own end beginning to approach, his body pent up from so many hours of craving you, wanting to feel your body against his, smelling your scent that seemed to calm him instantly on his bad days, and excite him on his good ones. 

Sitting up when he felt you come undone yet again, your moans higher in pitch as he continued to thrust upwards in the new position, you on his lap, his arms around your waist as he held you close. He knew you were becoming overstimulated, and the knowledge spurred him on, he wanted you to only think of him, only feel him, crave him like he craved you. 

"One more...fuck...for me baby" he growled against your ear, the position causing you to grind against him and the friction against you paired with his deep and wild thrusts were making you see spots while your body wanted to move away. 

"P-Paul I c-can't" you whined, head resting against his shoulder as you clawed at his back. 

"Yes, you can baby" he panted. 

"Shit...just one more...mmm...I'm so close baby...fuuuck...just one more Sugar" he whimpered, holding you closer, his lips resting against your neck, you could feel his tongue lapping at the sensitive skin, feel his fangs grazing you, and you knew what he wanted along with other orgasms from you. 

With a whimper you tilted your head more to the side, completely lost in Paul, and that was the only invitation he needed. 

The pain wasn't as bad as you thought it would be, or maybe Paul had used some form of Vampire magic to make it not as bad...or maybe your brain was just that fucked out. Whatever it was, the feeling quickly morphed into a warm euphoric sensation that ran throughout your body, like a final piece clicking in place, and the lights behind your eyes exploded as your body shook. 

Paul wasn't far behind you, as soon as your blood hit his tongue he was gone, a low almost territorial growl leaving him as he leaned forward, your body now being supported only by him as his thrusts quickened even more for only a moment before his teeth were leaving you, blood stained lips opening as a moan tore from his throat, his thrusts becoming sloppy as he spilled inside you, before stilling completely. When you finally came to, your body both numb and tingly you noticed two things. 

One being Paul was still vamped out, his chin and fangs covered in your blood, and two, you don't think you'd ever seen Paul so blissed out, even after smoking. 

He looked like he was oblivious to everything at the moment, his body just basking in the orgasm that had rushed through him... You'd be lying if you said you wouldn't like to see him like this more often. As if reading your thoughts you watched as golden eyes met yours, the red haze far less now, and a lazy smile rested on his lips.

"Hi" you smiled, voice scratchy.

"Hi" he replied, leaning down to nuzzle your neck and kiss the now sealed bite mark. 

"So... Not that I'm complaining about the mind-blowing sex but...""It's rut season" he stated. 

"Yeah, David explained that" you replied. 

"Said it was like when animals go into rut and that you guys were dangerous like this because I'm just human" "He wasn't wrong...I could be dangerous to you if I lost control." 

"But you didn't" you told him, fingers running through his wild hair now that he had laid you down on the bed again, his head resting on your chest. 

"But I could have" the room fell silent after that, your thoughts going back to when David explained it. 

"I'm shocked then" you spoke again, catching his attention. 

"That I would come here?" He asked against your skin. 

"That you didn't just find a pretty girl on the boardwalk, after all, it's not like you would have trouble" he was looking at you quicker than you expected after your sentence, eyes scanning over your features, surely picking up on both the jealousy and sadness. 

Paul might have been seen as the most oblivious of the group, but he was quite observant when it came to you.

"It doesn't work that way Sugar" he told you with a smile. 

While you only tilted your head.

"What did I want you to say that you were?" He asked as he kissed up your chest, inhaling your scent as he nuzzled your neck again. 

You took a moment to answer, your brain having been very fuzzy at the time, but soon it clicked.

"Your mate" you replied, feeling him nod. 

"Ruts only happen to a vampire when we find our mates," he explained, before adding. 

"Which means the only one we want to make scream our name is our mate" he replied with a snicker as he peppered your face with kisses, causing you to laugh and the insecurity to leave you. 

"So, what all does this mean?" You asked once he stopped. He looked down at you with a softness in his golden gaze. 

"Well besides the whole meant to be aspect" he smiled."That means if you do decide to become like us, you know who you'll be stuck with for all eternity." 

"There is no one I'd rather be stuck with," you told him with a smile. 

"Awe really babe?""Yes...truth be told I've had a crush on you since we met." 

"WHAT?!" He asked, pushing up on his arms to hover over you."You're telling me we could have been having sex this entire time?!?" He pouted, causing you to laugh and nod. 

"Baaaabe" he whined, burning his face in your neck and giving it a playful nip. 

"I mean...we can always make up for lost time right?" You stated, causing him to slowly pull away from you, a shit eating grin on his face. 

"There are a few hours left of the rut right?" You asked. 

"I fucking love you" he rushed to capture your lips with his, before descending down your body, you watched as he made himself comfortable, your legs draped over his shoulders. Your eyes met as he gave you a wink. 

"Told you that I would taste you later Sugar" This was going to be a long night.
