“Look at me, Kellan. Look and see what you do to me. How could you ever think I don’t want you?” My pajama pants were tented with my aching need for my mate.
“Please, Locke.”
And just like that, my resolve was broken. I shoved my pajama pants and boxer briefs down and kicked them off before getting into bed.
Chapter Sixteen
Kellan
“Please, alpha!” The moment he slid under the covers next to me, there was no going back and I’d have no shame in my attempt to seduce him. Or be seduced by him. Even someone as young as I’d been when I was ripped from my young life recognized that when you met your mate, you leapt into their arms immediately. “I know what I want, and I need you to take me and make me yours.”
“Omega,” he groaned. “I couldn’t agree more. Also, my bear is sure that the bond between us will give you more protection, and I can’t say no to that any more than I can say no to you.”
I pressed tight against him, his jutting cock in full agreement with what he had said. “Good. I hope that bodes well for all the requests I plan to make of you in all our years of mated life.”
His lips crashed down on mine, then, making it clear that talking was no longer necessary. Something else we could agree on. Locke took possession of my lips with a mastery that my omega friends and I had never dreamed possible when we were talking about our someday mates. And while his tongue twined with mine, his hands were finding all the sensitive spots on my body and awakening me to arousal. I’d never been with anyone before, and I was glad because it would have been a waste of my time.
This alpha who kissed down my body and took my cock in his mouth was mine. I couldn’t believe it and had to keep telling myself that as his head bobbed up and down, the tip of my cock grazing the back of his throat. I closed my eyes, all my attention focused on his teeth grazing my skin, his tongue rubbing the underside of my cock, his lips closed tight around my shaft, and his fingers exploring my slick until, with a shriek, I came, mycum pouring into his throat where he swallowed it down. Then I peeked to see him rising up to finally fit his cock into my needy hole.
I clung to the sheets on either side of me, breathing hard while he worked his way in, stretching my virgin asshole to accommodate his girth. Finally, he was all the way in, and he paused to let me adjust, whispering sexy things, loving things, sweet words that enhanced the sensuality of this moment between us.
Finally, I couldn’t stand it anymore and rocked my hips, hoping he’d get the signal, and move.
“Be patient, omega.” My alpha smiled down at me. “I’ve waited a lifetime for you, and I want to enjoy it.”
I shuddered, impatient, and he finally began to stroke in and out, slowly at first, each drive finding new places inside me to arouse. He grasped my cock and stroked it along with his movements. Deeper, faster, I lost all control and came again just as he pumped his cum into my body and his knot swelled.
Reaching out with grabby hands, I tipped my head to the side to expose my throat to his bite. “Mark me, alpha.”
“Pushy omega.” He toyed with me at first, sucking on my skin, scraping it with his teeth before the sting of his bite crashed through me. Lifting his head, he smiled, his teeth stained with my blood. “And all mine.” He held me close while his knot bound us together, and finally it shrank, but we continued to lie in our tangle of arms and legs, a sweaty, panting pair.
So this was what happiness was like.
The next morning, we were awakened by the door opening.
“Ever heard of knocking, Markus,” Locke growled.
“I would have, but you said you were going to your own room for the night, Locke.” The healer frowned. “Your omega has a lot to go through before he’s free to live here. As you know,that suppressor he’s on is only temporary. He can’t take it for long. I’ve been up all night reading and researching and calling other healers, and I think I’ve come up with a solution to our problem.”
“Yeah?” Locke pushed himself up to sit. “How about you give us long enough to get up and ready for the day, and we’ll meet you at your place in a little while.”
“Don’t take long.” His disapproval shone through but I couldn’t bring myself to care. I would do whatever it took to stay here, but right now, my alpha was running his foot up my leg.
I didn’t get to the healer’s house for quite a while, and Locke didn’t get there at all. He was called away by one of his betas, and I assured him I’d be fine.
Once again, I joined him at his breakfast table, although this time, there was not quite the variety of food. I was treated to oatmeal with all sorts of toppings. I’d never realized how much I’d missed this simple, delicious food. I gleefully piled on toasted almonds, blueberries, sliced bananas, brown sugar, and strawberries then tipped a pitcher of milk over the whole thing. It was so good. Hard to believe it was also healthful food.
I had only had three bites when Markus, no longer all about letting me eat, said, “The suppressor I gave you was at half strength as recommended, but according to some sources, if I do not dilute it, it may solve our problem. It will suppress at least one of those bears, likely permanently. But there is no guarantee which one it will be or if you will ever be able to shift again.”
“Do it.”
“Are you sure?”
The first time it had been painful, but not something I couldn’t handle, but after I followed Markus down the hallway to his exam room and lay on the table, I was more scared than I was willing to admit.
A faint doubt fluttered in my mind as I was bound in place. “This is going to hurt, and if you move, bad things could happen.”
I didn’t ask what bad things. Just gripped the rubber ball he gave me as the healer inserted the needle in my hand and hung the bag of acid-green liquid on the stand. I was determined to be brave, but when the fluid entered my veins, it burned like fire, and I screamed and passed out.
