“Xander, I was thinking…” Darius’ voice trailed away. There was deathly silence.
“This is how it’s done, isn’t it? I’ve got it right?” I muttered into the pillow as I tried to cover up my awkwardness with my snarky tone.
“Um… it can be, but… it’s not the most respectful and we hardly know each other. That’s not how I want to do it the first time.” Darius sounded calm and controlled. At least one of us was. I was freaking out. And damn it, he wanted to be a freaking gentleman about this, didn’t he? When all I wanted was just to get it over with.
“It doesn’t matter. Just do it.” My voice was muffled by the pillow and the tears I was holding back.
“No,” Darius replied, stubbornly. “That is not how I’m taking my mate for the first time.”
Before I could protest, he scooped me up in his arms as if I didn’t weigh a thing, and whilst juggling me, he pulled the covers down and flipped me over onto my back on the mattress. A pair of firm lips took mine as he fell on top of me, licking into my mouth as my traitorous lips welcomed him in. The big probing tongue in my mouth was an invasion of my personal space, aaa-n-d…fuck, I wanted to suck on it at the same time. I had no control over my body, which was already leaking slick at an embarrassing rate.
Moments later, Darius broke the kiss, sniffing behind my ear, before slowly kissing his way down my neck, to the place nearthe junction of neck and collarbone where the mating mark would go. He repeatedly lapped the skin over my mating gland, before moving on and leaving a trail of wet kisses over the smooth skin of my pecs.
I kept my eyes closed, trembling at the scrape of his short stubble, shivering with the goosebumps that followed his lips. When he sucked one nipple into his mouth, I would have jolted off the bed except for his weight trapping my hips and the pressure of his arm across my collarbone. I whimpered. And then felt the heat surge into my cheeks in embarrassment.
Darius slid further down the bed, positioning himself between my thighs. His mouth continued its slow exploration down my abdomen, ignoring my cock - which had gone hard – until he reached the crease where hips met thighs. He nuzzled me and his mouth closed around my ball sac. Oh Goddess! I writhed on the bed. Fuck! It felt amazing.
My fingers had found their way into his hair, sliding through the tight curls and rasping over his scalp. Electricity zapped between us and I snatched my hand back.
Darius’ hand curled around my cock. I wanted this so badly. Needed it. Suddenly the situation – how I’d had no choice in the arrangement, how I didn’t really know him - faded into insignificance.I could barely breath, lying there with this almost-a-stranger-but-soon-to-be-mate’s hand stroking my cock. Fuck, it felt good.
Darius continued stroking me with one hand until the pre-cum began to flow. I scrunched my eyes tightly closed, barely daring to breath.
A finger slid across the sensitive skin of my taint, and I flinched as a large fingertip touched my asshole, gliding over the sensitivetissue on a sea of slick. Then there was pressure against my tight sphincter. I’d never so much as played there before. It was embarrassing to have this stranger touch me in such an intimate place, and I kept my eyes tightly shut as I felt the flush of heat on my cheeks.
My body responded to the alpha pheromones flooding the room, a rush of slick running out my anus and easing the passage of his finger.
O Goddess, now I had this man’s finger up my ass! It felt weird, though not totally uncomfortable. I kept my eyes shut. I couldn’t look at him. I tensed around the finger.
Darius continued stroking me with his other hand, making soothing sounds.
“Relax,” he murmured. “I don’t want to hurt you. Just breathe.”
I sucked in a shuddering breath. I kept my eyes closed and willed myself to relax. Let myself feel. And wow, yeah, that was better… good, even.
“Okay?”
“Yeah, that’s... that's good.”
His finger slid further then in, then almost out. He repeated it several times, fucking me with his finger. Then he did something and my brain just fried.
“Oh fuck!” I cried. “Do that again!”
I nearly cried from overstimulation, but oh, Goddess, it was insane how good that felt.
Darius chuckled. Then he murmured, “Gonna go for two now. Just relax.”
I felt the stretch and burn as Darius pressed in. Yeah, that was definitely two… I could hardly breathe again. I dragged in shallow breaths, struggling to adjust.
Think about something else.
Darius paused. His hand stilled on my cock, and his fingers slipped out of my ass.
“Are you okay?” he queried. My eyes were pressed tightly shut, but I could hear the concern in his voice.
I whimpered, desperate to be filled, but suddenly wondering if I’d be able to accommodate his cock. He was an alpha and so much bigger than me. I wasn’t a big guy. It was gonna fit though, wasn’t it?
“Yes, o-of course. I’m just, I can’t…,” I flailed for words. “You won’t fit.”
