Then I took him in my mouth again, tip to base, and sucked hard. He swore, a high noise in the back of his throat.He held the back of my head, and I loosened my jaw, letting him thrust into my mouth, closing my eyes, remembering how it felt in my heat.
And then he was pulling me up, tugging me over to the loveseat on the far wall and pulling me down on top of him.
“Ride me,” he panted. He stripped off his t-shirt, and I tore my own clothes off myself, straddling his thighs. I ran my hands down his stomach, scratching, before I arched into him, leaning down to bite his shoulder. I nosed higher, taking in his scent, gasoline, and leather, and let out a shaky breath as I angled my hips so the head of his cock caught in me.
I moaned softly, my back curving so I could slowly lower myself onto him.
Aidan’s moans were deep, mingling with mine. When I went too slow, he gripped my thighs and thrust up into me with force. A gasp punched out of me as I met his gaze. He grinned up at me, a wolfish expression, and I kissed it away, keening as he set a steady pace.
“Mate,” he whispered, licking into my mouth.
“Mate,” I moaned back.
“Say it again,” he groaned, holding my ass, spreading me open, and using his grip as leverage to lift me up and down.
“Mate.” I let the word fall from my lips as I pressed close to him, our chests meeting. He leaned back and I sat up, bouncing on him, gasping every time he hit that spot inside of me that had me seeing stars behind my eyes. “God, Aidan—Alpha.”
“There it is,” he laughed. His neck was damp with sweat and I nosed at his skin again, breathing him in. “I love it when you call me that.”
“That’s because—ah—all dumb alphas love—Aidan—love being called it.” He thrust harder and faster, chuckling into my ear.
“When you come for me, Dakota,” he murmured into my ear, biting that place he loved just below my lobe, a place he knew I reacted to. “I want everyone in this whole damn club to know I’m your mate.”
My eyes widened at the challenge. “Aidan, I—”
“Scream for me the way you did last night.” His eyes burned when he looked at me. “I’m not goin’ anywhere this time. I promise.”
Before I could answer, he’d flipped us over. He was a god, leaning over me, backlit by the dark pink glow of the velvet booth, his black hair falling around his face. I slid my hands over his pecs, gripping onto his shoulders, thick with muscle. His grin was cocky, knowing exactly what he was doing to me as I fell apart in his hold.
His hips snapped against mine, sliding in and out at a brutal pace that I struggled to breathe around. Like this, he hit that spot in me easily, and I hurtled ever-closer to my orgasm.
“Alpha,” I moaned, for him, to him, holding on like I never wanted to let go.
“You want to be my Luna?” he asked, snarling into that place between my shoulder and neck. “Want to be the Alpha’s Luna?”
Whining, I nodded.
“Then be a good girl and come for me, Dakota. Mymate.” A cry built in my throat, keening, and I burst apart when he sank his teeth into that spot—finally. I could feel him murmuring the word into my skin.Mate. Mate. Mate.
I came harder than I ever had before, gasping and spasming beneath him. My whole body was sensitive. I sobbed, burying my face in his neck, clinging onto him.
“Close,” he warned.
I tucked my legs around him, making sure he didn’t pull out. “Come in me,” I pleaded. “Please, Alpha. Come for me.”
Aidan moaned quietly as I worried my teeth against his scent gland. And when his breaths grew shorter and his hips pistoned into me, and I felt the flood of warmth, I bit down hard enough to draw blood. Aidan cursed, his body stuttering and going limp almost immediately. He didn’t pull out quickly the way he had done before. He shifted us on the loveseat, and I swooned at his ability to simply pick me up like it was nothing. I ended up curled up in his lap, still connected to him.
I kissed him slowly, languidly, now. He kissed me back deeply, filling his hands with my hair. I licked his mating mark, smiling. It terrified me to think he might still leave. I didn’t have anything to trust because he’d already done it twice but I had to believe him.
We needed to build trust. Proper trust.
Mating wasn’t all about sex. I needed to relearn Aidan Tyrone, and he needed to know that once I found my home, I didn’t want to give it up.
“I’m coming back to Oak Hill with you,” I whispered into his neck. With some resistance on my part, Aidan grasped my chin, so I looked at him.
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. I want to find a home for myself that isn’t just me running away from my past. I have to face my future but alsomy parents. Besides, if anyone puts even ten feet of distance between us, I might go insane.” I clenched around him, giggling.
