“Do you want to hear them?” Darsh asked.
“No,” I whispered even though this room was private. “Better to the imagination.”
“As you wish.”
I gasped as the paddle landed hard against the omega’s ass followed by the gentle caress of the alpha’s hand. Pain and then pleasure. The sting of agony and then the knead of care. Redness bloomed on the omega’s ass.
“He is giving the omega the release he needs. Spanking can give the omega an emotional liberation in the form of pain. It’s pleasurable for the alpha to give the pain but also the omega. It’s more than physical. It offers catharsis. Endorphins flood the omega’s body giving him a euphoric feeling.”
“That sounds nice.”
“It can be with the right partner.” Darsh turned to place kisses along my neck. “Can I touch you, omega?”
My alpha was hard as a rock behind me. His erection pressed into my ass and though we were far from having sex, I was on the edge of orgasm already. “Please,” I begged, not caring how desperate it sounded.
With skilled hands, he undid my belt and unbuttoned my pants and slid his hand inside. “Nothing on under there, omega? You naughty tiger.”
“I never saw the…” Point. My sentence was cut off as Darsh gripped my cock at the same time the paddle landed on the omega’s ass in front of us. The omega cried out.
“You’re so hard for me, Blaze. I bet if I checked, you would be slick as well.”
“I am.”
“Before we take this any further, I need to say something.”
“Now?” I laughed.
“Yes. Now more than ever. We haven’t said the words but I want you to know. You’re mine. You’re my omega. My mate. My fated tiger.”
“And you’re my alpha. I’ve known it all along. I didn’t trust myself, but I knew.”
He squeezed my cock. “You have to learn to trust yourself, mate.”
Darsh worked my cock up and down until my balls tightened and I was on the edge of coming. Then he pulled away. “What?” I whimpered.
“Come home with me. Let me take you to my bed, my nest. I need to mate you and mark you and our first time won’t be here. I treasure you too much for that. Especially since…”
“Since I’m a virgin,” I finished for him.
“Yes.”
“We barely got to explore.”
“There is time to explore. So much time, omega.”
Chapter Sixteen
Darsh
I’d lived a long time without him, but now I couldn’t imagine how I had. How I’d ever considered my bed warm and cozy when only I lay in it. Because the moment we were together, under the covers and naked, everything in my life came together with a whoosh. Everything. I wrapped my arms around my omega, the person who Fate gifted to me and who I hoped would be here next to me every night forever.
Or at least as often as he wanted to because it would be his choice, but he’d be welcome and nobody had to tell me that if he wasn’t here, I’d be waiting for him to come back. But for now, he was here, and his lips were parted and welcoming, his skin under my questing palms warm and enticing. There was no part of this man I didn’t want to know, in every sense. “Omega, thank you for coming home with me. Are you sure you’re ready for this?”
“I-I think so. How would I know though until I try it? I’ve never been with anyone else, as you know.”
“And never will be,” I asserted.
“Then you’ll always be the bet because I won’t have anything to compare it to.” He nipped my shoulder. “Will I?”
