Chapter Ten: Accidental Mate

Hey there guys, I'm back again with the most beautiful chap I've written so far because Victor Sabertooth Creed is on the mission to save his 'Accidental Mate' in this one. There's gonna be alotta drama at first and then a sweet end for all my sweet mouthed readers and yes, I ain't no Bear Grylls here and this is not any great Episode of 'Man Vs Wild' on 'How to Survive a Fall Through Ice' so 50% of the situation is totally fan fictional here ;-} No more yapping, just enjoy...

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

"FRAILLL?... FRAILLLL?!" a frantic Sabertooth ran his eyes all around and howled her name again and again but no response came back. His night vision, sensitive nose and sharp ears, everything was trying its best at the moment. He screamed her name with every step along the shore, hoping for just one hint, one damned hint that would say she was still alive. He would even seek her out of fucking abyss of this goddamned soul freezing lake if she was living, breathing and waiting. For him.

"FRAILLLLL?!" he tried one more time but only the pindrop silence of the night answered his call. This silence was driving Sabertooth even crazier.

His fingers couldn't wait anymore and went directly to the zip of his jacket. He unzipped it quickly and was about to take it off when all of a sudden, a very weak heartbeat touched his ears.

"My frail!" his eyes glinted with excitement as they turned deep amber again. He knew, he knew she could not die on him but where was she? He ran his eyes around him again but could not see her. With no other option, he promptly got down on all fours and ran in the direction his sharp ears were taking him. The weak heartbeats were getting clearer and clearer with each passing second and suddenly, his feet halted at the sight of Aks's inert form lying on the pebbled ground behind a line of large boulders. He approached her with lightening speed and took her unconscious body in his arms.

"Aks? Aks? Open your eyes darlin'!" he tapped her on her whitened cheeks, trying to bring her around but no use. There was no breathing. Her lungs were filled with icy water. There was no choice but to perform an urgent CPR on her. He unzipped her jacket and tilted her head back slightly to lift her chin. He placed his hands one on the top of the other, in the middle of her chest and pushed hard and fast. She spat out a gob of water. He then pinched her nose shut and placed his mouth over hers, making a complete seal and blowing into her mouth to make her chest rise.

"C'mon, c'mon..wake up frail!" he repeated the process until she vomited all the water.

"C'mon wake up frail, Don'tcha dare die on me, ya got that?!" Victor roared in frustration. He wanted her breaths back. He NEEDED her breaths back! He lifted his eyes up, saying something in his heart only He, up there could listen. and suddenly, his wish came true. His frail, his Aks came back to life as she coughed up and took a shaky breath with the last push. Looks like He, up there had really heard his silent prayer.

"V-Victor..?" she asked, shivering with half-open eyes. She wasn't in the condition to be sure if it was really Victor or a hallucination due to her moderate stage of Hyperthermia.

"Yeah it's me darlin', just stay awake till I get ya outta here." Victor assured her with a short smile. Next he lifted his head and sniffed the air. Among all other scents, Creed caught the faint smell of their cabin on the other side. He could either take her back to the cabin or hospital where she would be treated better by her Doctor Uncle but...how would he face all his bitter questions? Aks was like a daughter to him. The goddamn 'Daddio' was undoubtedly going to hold Victor responsible for her condition and what if he brainwashed Aks against him about everything? After all, he was the one who'd decided to stay a little longer so he could fuck the stupid frail everyday and dragged her into his fuckin' mess and...what if she hated him after that? No! NEVER! he would never let that happen!

She's his to fuck and she's his to save! Fuck the hospital, Victor Sabertooth Creed knows damn well how to take care of what's his!

He knew what he had to do. he just needed to carry the frail back to their cabin and warm her up. He got up and took off his jacket. He then stood Aks's quivering body up and tied her to his back with the sleeves of his jacket. Now, he got back down on all fours with Aks tied on his back, legs hanging on either side of him.

"Time to go back home, darlin'."

He ran on all his fours, as fast as he could, crushing every obstacle under his paws and scaring all the savage beasts of the woods all the way. He was going to save his frail at any cost and there was absolutely NOTHING in the world that could stop him from doing so tonight.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

Victor stormed into the cabin with at the speed of a bullet on all fours. He laid her down on the floor after untying her from his back. He closed the door promptly. She needed to get rid of her soaking wet clothes first. He carefully slices down her clothes but fell shocked as he took off her shoes. Both of her soles were destroyed by the severe electric burns. His jaw tightened at once. He knew whose doing it was. That Arc Bitch!

Thanks to her lucky stars, she was in the leather boots or the damage could've been even worse. He'd take care of 'em later but first, she needs to get warmed up. He hurried into bedroom and came back with all the blankets they had but wrapped her in just one. He now rushed into the bathroom and came back after a few minutes. he removed the blanket and carried her naked quivering body into the bathroom. He'd already kept a tub ready, filled with the lukewarm water for her. He leaned forward and carefully immersed her into the tub to warm her up.

"Stay here, darlin', I just be back."

He rushed out and hurried to the fireplace. He piled up all the big logs and started a long lasting fire. he hurried back into the bathroom and checked Aks's temperature. Quite stable now. He carried her out and then took her to the fireplace before laying her down on the carpet near it. He wrapped all the blankets around her, giving her all the warmth she needed.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

She wanted to open her eyes but the great warmth around her was telling her tired body to stay as it was. She had no idea if it was still night or the next day'd gotten started but the unconsciousness definitely felt like hours. Her brain was wasn't in the state of thinking properly but still, she tried to recall her near-death experience from the last night. She couldn't recollect everything, just some vague fragments flashed before her tired eyes. That bitch's attack, the vicious fight, her body's struggle to get outta that fucking mind-numbing lake and Victor's screams for her. She was still not sure if it was really Victor or not. She just remembered a heavy voice and a blurred face. The face who saved her life last night. She surely needed to see it.

She lifted her eyelids slowly and found herself nuzzling into a clothed chest inside a blanket. She took a deep inhale. The same intoxicating musky scent. He's my Victor. The realisation brought a small smile to her dry lips.

"Victor...where are we?" She asked in a raspy tone, keeping her head still hidden under the blanket.

"Hell! If that's what you wanna hear." his growly reply made her chuckle softly against his chest. She tugged down the blanket and drifted her eyes up to his face. Their eyes locked on each other. after a blissfully serene moment that felt like an eternity, she gave him the same beautifully stupid smile of hers which pissed him off in normal times but was a big relief at this moment.

She took her hands out of the cocoon of made of the blankets Victor'd wrapped around her. She raised her exhausted eyes to look at the time. 4:30am in the clock of her house. The biggest relief was to find herself lying down in Victor's arms near her good warm fireplace.

"Really. There's no place like home."

"That's what I'd tried to make ya understand tomorrow but you just didn't listen." he rolled onto his back and pulled her close. His fingers roamed through her damp hair as she rested her head on his calmly beating heart.

"I'd sensed the attack two days ago when we went for the scan, the receptionist told me about a group of some dangerous looking assholes who'd been inquiring about me for the past one week but couldn't get anything out of her because she refused to give any kind of personal information about any patient of theirs and then, your Doctor Uncle called me yesterday morning and told me that he'd seen the same guys follow my car after the scan. That's why I said no for that fuckin' party. I could've buried them all right here, in our fuckin' backyard without putting your life at the risk." a low growl rumbled through his chest. He was still holding himself responsible for everything.

"And then I got a call from a buttboy of mine from headquarters during the party. He told me about Arclight's revenge plan. Before I could take you outta there safely, they attacked ya and-"

"That wasn't your fault." she finally said, brushing her lips over the fabric.

"I know. That's why," his claws tightened in her hair, forcing her to look up. "If ya ever tried to convince me fer another goddamn party, I swear frail, I'm gonna drag ya back to the bedroom, tie ya to the headboard and fuck ya until you forget the fuckin' 'P' word!" the warning came out of his mouth in the most intimidating tone but it just made her laugh again. She could feel his low chuckle too.

When the laughter finally died down, Aks asked hesitantly. "...Victor?..who was that woman?"

"An enemy from the past. Wanted to punish me for an old crime of mine."

She bit her lower lip nervously. She needed to know. "... Did you kill her?" a strange silence spread through the air.

"She tried to kill what is mine. What else did ya expect me ta do? Have a goddamn tea debate over everything with Ms. Boycut with Superman's spit curl?"

That was it. Aks burst into laughing. Damn this guy!He really had no goddamned timing for cracking jokes. Even he had a toothy grin this time. She wiped a couple of tears off the corners of her eyes and pulled one of her legs up to rest it on his thigh but suddenly felt a sharp pain in her bandaged foot.

"Aahhh!"

"What happened?" he quickly bent his neck forward.

"My foot-"

"Don't try to move 'em much, those burns are gonna hurt like hell."

"Burns?!"

"Yeah. That Arcbitch'd attacked you with her deadly shock waves to make ya fall into the lake. They've damaged your soles bad."

Aks sighed. "I knew it."

"What?" he lifted her chin.

"I'd felt a sudden and very strong jolt of electricity before falling. My legs went numb immediately. I don't remember exactly but moving through the water felt like..it was a very cold quicksand, slightly pulling me backwards but thanks to my 'Internet Mania', I'd read an article on Wiki How about how to survive a fall through ice some days ago. I just did whatever I remembered from the article and somehow dragged myself out of the water which was damn difficult with two numbed legs."

"Wiki How? Really?" he had an amused look.

"Yeah. Then I dragged my body out of the water and hid behind those big boulders to wait for you to find me. My legs felt like a deadweight to me at that time but.. I can feel them now, how did you do that?"

"I took care of 'em my way, just like I did your Hyperthermia."

"What did you do about that?"

"Rymosia. It's a rare herb, found only in the cold regions of India and Nepal. I saw it in the woods behind our cabin a few days ago. Only one tablespoonful of its leaves' essence can cure any stage of hyperthermia."

"Oh, that means I owe you a thanks."

"Thanks?" Victor scoffed and sat up, forearms resting on his knees. "I almost got ya killed tonight, frail, I dragged ya into my fucking mess...ya should be hatin' me fer that."

Aks furrowed her brows and tried to sit, a sharp groan escaped her as she put some pressure on her bandaged feet. Victor turned his head quickly and presented his shoulder for the support.

"First of all, I'm fucking alive here and it's just because of you and second of all, how many damn times do I need to tell you that I DO NOT hate you! I never have and I never will, just get that through your thick head!" Victor raised an eyebrow on her newly developed boldness.

Hyperthermia's hit her brain hard.

"You heard it right, Mr. Creed. You know, when I was struggling for every single breath in that Lake, it was only your face that gave me strength to get out. I saw you fight that bitch for me, I saw you fight her entire army for me. No one has ever done something like that for me and that's what gave me a strange power to kick water's ass and come out but since that one moment...everything has been looking like a damn hallucination to me...I still can't believe I'm alive."

She let out a sigh and rested her chin on his forearm. "I need to feel, Victor, I need to feel myself alive, I need to feel you alive and for that...I-I need to feel you inside of me."

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

Her hesitant demand made Creed spun his face to her with a dumbfounded look on it. Has she gone crazy?

"Are ya kiddin' me, frail?! You need-"

"Please, Vic, I've gone through a damn mutant attack, 880 volts electric shock and a fucking fall in that damn ass freezing Lake in the same fucking night and trust me, it's definitely not one of my daily routines. I need to feel normal, just like I was before that fucking party. In your arms, in my house. Just give me that."

Sabertooth scoffs inside.

Stupid frail thinks being with him is normal.

Just shut up!

"But frail-"

"Please Vic..?" She gazed into his eyes with a silent plea. Victor searched her eyes. There was no horniness or desperation in them at that moment. Just a need, to feel everything waa back to normal. Something only he could make her feel.

Without breaking the piercing gaze, both moved closer slowly, their mouths just one inch away from each other. She could feel his hot breath on her lips. He advanced first and brushed his lips over hers. Without any hesitation, she captured his lips with hers and teased 'em with a slight swipe of her tongue. The hell with Hesitation! Victor gripped the back of her neck and deepened the kiss hungrily. That was what she needed. She closed her eyes and enjoyed every second of this bruising but passionate kiss.

The end of the kiss left them both breathless. The entire room was filled with her heavy arousal. The gaze was back. Victor pushed her down onto her back and got rid of his clothes hastily. With his eyes still locked on hers, he moved over her while his hand trailed down to bring his hardened member to her quivering entrance.

"A-Ahhh!" a sharp groan escaped her as he slid inside her in a swift motion. She chewed down her bottom lip when he buried his face into her neck and licked at the sensitive mark he'd given her in their first coupling. Victor locked her legs around his waist as he started pumping into her at a medium pace, making sure not to hurt her already weak body much. He could smell all the emotions rumbling through her chest right now. Pain, fear, comfort and euphoria. She moaned at every push, stroking the back of his neck, running her loving touches all over his wounded back and arms and placing feathery trembling kisses on the crook of his neck. In spite of her burnt feet painfully grazing against his back, her legs held him tightly as if she never wanted to let him go. Soon she found herself on the verge of a mind numbing climax.

"Oh gawd Victor.. I'm gonna come!"

He increased his speed. "Yes Snowcat, cum for me!"

She could explode anytime. To make it the best of them all, Victor suddenly took a hardened brown nipple in his mouth while his hand trailed down and stroked her swollen nub with his index claw which was a terrifying act for all other frails but Aks always trusted his claws down there just to give a heavenly pleasure. That was it. a soul shuddering orgasm burst into her and everything else simply turned into a blurr. Her eyes rolled close involuntarily as she announced her release with a loud scream but furthermore, her panting mouth murmured something she never intended to say...

"Oh god...oh goddd...Victor.. I love you!"

His eyes shot open as he heard her shocking declaration.

"What did you just say?!" Victor raised his head and pulled out of her hastily. His weeping organ didn't even get a chance to empty itself inside her.

It took her just one second to realise what'd just fell out of her mouth. What the hell? Where the hell did that come from? Or...how did she let that come out? Shit, time for damage control.

She quickly sat up, trying to control her labored breathing and think any quick and believable excuse. She ran a hand through her hair. "I'm sorry, Vic, it's just..maybe Hyperthermia's really hit my brain hard..." it was a pathetic lie. He didn't even need to smell it.

"But I smelled no confusion in your words." he furrowed his brows at the way her eyes were trying to hide from his gaze. Without warning, he jumped at her, pinning her hands to the bed and causing her breath to catch in her dry throat. "Did you mean...what you just said, frail?" he searched her eyes for truth this time. Only truth.

There was no other option. He'd catch her every lie. Time for the truth.The Truth she was always afraid to admit.

"I'm sorry Victor..." tears welled up in her big eyes."I don't know when it started...i know it's just a convenient shit for you but I just-"

Aks couldn't even complete her sentence when Victor just shook his head and thundered out. Without listening anything else, without saying in return. His absence filled the room with Aks's weak sobs who couldn't help but feel guilty over admitting her stupid feelings to an animal of a man.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

Fucking frail! How could she feel such a foolish thing for him, Victor Sabertooth Creed?! Yeah he kept her alive for the future fucks but that doesn't mean she can keep HIM like a fucking pet pussy cat. NOBODY CAN AND NOBODY EVER FUCKING WILL!

As he left the cabin, he just got down on all fours and ran to the woods, cleaving through the thick walls to trees. He needed to get away from all of this. That's not how he wanted it to go. Her words were echoing in his ears over and over again and he cursed the stupid frail every time. He didn't know how long he'd been running until he found himself sitting on a high flat cliff, glaring at a bright sunrise.

His mind replayed the last whole month he'd spent...with her. First that brutal ambush, then his takeover on Aks's cabin and life and then this five times a day shit. Five times a day?! He's been on this fucking planet for over a goddamn century but life'd never been so good because he'd never been a damned charmer like Runt. any girl who would want to be with him must be fucking crazy. Last time he got such a girl years ago but she...

And now this, another fucking crazy girl with sentimental bullshit. But c'mon man, she's a goddamned human! a low living expandable insect. She just can be a vacation pussy, not his goddamned accidental Mate. Whoa whoa whoa Mate?! Where the hell did that come from?

Sabertooth snarls from inside.

Great asshole, now yer fallin' fer a fuckin' human cunt!

No I'm not!

Yes you are! That's why yer sittin' here right now, whining about how the hell ya let yourself get that soft.

What the fuck are ya talkin' about?

First ya didn't kill her in the first meet, then ya let all her goddamn beloved ones slip out of your claws, then ya stayed to fuck a frail for more than a fuckin' week instead of just goin' out and takin' your fuckin' payback on that blue bitch and her pimps and the biggest fuckin' cherry on the top, last night you were at the fuckin' brink of bursting into tears over her unconscious body. believe it or not boy, but ya've gone soft!

No I have not asshole!

Then prove it!

How?

Simple and straight. Just go and kill her.

What? Why?!?

Because she is the one who is makin' ya, VICTOR CREED weak! Even last night when I wanted to let her die, ya forced me to save her because you've gone fuckin' weak but Sabertooth is NOT weak and Victor Creed is nothing without Sabertooth! so if you want Sabertooth with ya, just go and fuckin' kill her!

If that's what ya want...ya got it!

Sabertooth grins evilly.

Victor stretched his neck with a stiffened jaw, preparing himself to do what he should've done weeks ago. His predatory eyes glared at the path that would take him back to the cabin where his prey was waiting for him.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

She had no idea how long she'd been sitting curled up on the couch. She'd never been an emotionally weak girl but her tears weren't stopping today. She held herself responsible for everything. Why the hell did she have to spit out that sentimental crap? Since the day one, she knew what it was all about. It was just a 'vacation fun' to him and she couldn't call it a rape because she'd enjoyed every dirty second of it. Everything was just going fine but suddenly that fucking icy water fucked up her mind and the biggest shit, she didn't even know how to fix it when Victor was nowhere to be found.

Her eyes looked up as the door was slammed open. Victor entered with a murderous glare looking for her only. She wiped her tears away and stood up quickly, in spite of agonizing pain in her soles. a short smile touched her lips but couldn't remain there for long as Creed rushed forward and grabbed her neck. Her eyes widened in great shock and confusion. She gasped for air, trying to strip his piercing claws off her neck but no use.

"W-What're you doing Victor, j-just let go of my neck!" tears flooded her eyes again.

His talons clenched around her slender neck. He bit his claws deeper into the delicate skin, almost cutting it. Just a little bit more pressure and he would rip her throat out but...

He couldn't do it. He just did not WANT to do it. In stead...he loosened the grip a bit and brought her face close to his. He looked into her eyes for mere seconds and without warning, crashed his lips against hers in a hot bruising liplock.

Sabertooth rolls his eyes.

There was no gentleness in this one. Just an aggressive passion. he seized the back of her hair, making her yelp as he plunged his tongue into her mouth, forcing hers to surrender. His fangs bit down her bottom lip, drawing fresh sweet blood. His lips bruised hers again and again and coated themselves in her red. it was all about biting and licking instead of a kiss. Aks was completely taken aback over this sudden tidal change in Victor's mood. Just ten seconds ago, this asshole was ready to crush her neck and now wanted her to respond to his brutal smooch?! It just ignited a spark of anger inside her that forced her to bit down his lower lip to give him a taste of his own medicine. Victor hissed in pain as she tasted his blood on her tongue but instead of letting go, he smirked against her lips and pulled her even closer.

"That's like my Snowcat."

The grab around her neck was gone. One of his hands slowly slid behind her neck and gripped the back of it. This time he deepened the kiss with the same hunger but a slight touch of gentleness also. His tongue teased hers with sensual touches, like it was apologizing for its earlier rudeness. His other hand trailed its way down to grab her ass. It reminded her of their first kiss. Anger was leaving her body rapidly. She tried to be unaffected by his ministrations but couldn't for long. She finally submitted and let herself get lost in the amazing sensation coming from his mouth, moaning at his demanding touches and stroking the back of his neck.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-

Eventually, the magic spell broke and they both had to pull away, breathless and enjoying each other's blood on each other's lips.

"Victor I-"

"Just keep that mouth shut!" his arms tightened around her. "And answer a simple question of mine but only in yes or no, got it?" his tone was serious this time.

She nodded shakily.

"Do you really mean...what you said earlier?" he bored his gaze into hers. He wanted it to be a yes. He needed it to be a yes.

She couldn't break the gaze even if she wanted to. Whatever she said in the morning was an unexpected acknowledgement, even to herself but wasn't a lie for sure.

She let out a breath and prepared herself to answer. "Yes."

A side smile rose the left corner of his lips. "that means that you are ready for a feral bond."

"feral bond?"

"Yes. From now on, you're more than just a fucking possession of mine. Now you will be my...mate."

Sabertooth roars inside.

Are ya fucking kidding me?!

"Mate?"

"Yeah, Mate. More than a girlfriend, more than a wife. It is the strongest relationship of them all. But it comes with three basic conditions." he gripped her waist even tighter, making her moan softly.

"First, no matter what happens, Mates NEVER leave each other alone. You wanna fight me, fight me. You wanna hate me, hate me but you CANNOT leave me, just like I will not leave you, EVER! Understood?"

She gave an understanding nod.

"Answer me, frail." he growled, digging his claws into her spine.

"Y-Yes!" a trembling reply escaped her lips.

"Good. Now, second, Mates keep each other above everything else. You, your happiness and your safety are going to be above everything else for me and likewise, Me and only ME is going to be above your friends, your job, your life and yes, your Internet mania for you, got it?"

"Yes, I do." she nodded with a chuckle.

"And third and the most important condition, Mates always take care of each other's needs. I'll provide anything and everything you need. Food, clothes, house, jewellery, money, anything. and in return, you gotta take care of just one need of mine." his claws drew soft pink trails on her silky arms. "Whenever I say I need a fuck, all you'll ask- 'The bed or floor?' understand, frail?"

"Y-Yes." she almost whispered this one, keeping his face down to hide the scarlet blush of her cheeks.

He placed a finger under her chin, forcing her to look up. "Now that you agree to all three rules, stop that blush shit and show me...what's mine." he suddenly grabbed her hand and placed it over the rock hard bulge hidden behind the zipper. "Because I really need a fuck right now."

She knew what he wanted to hear. Inspite of the heaviest blush she's ever gotten, she snaked her arms around his neck and bored her eyes into his with a seductive smile.

"The bed or floor?"

Spoilers: The entire chaos made our little Snowcat forget to take her *ahem ahem* pills and we all know where it usually leads to.. ;-}

Happy Diwali and Happy Halloween from my Sabertooth everyone! (Please keep all the doors and windows of your houses locked today because it's his favorite holiday ;-})
