I released his hands that I kept captive over his head, and I kissed him, softly at first, before I deepened the kiss, biting him in the process. He moaned as he wriggled under me, tangling his hand in my hair as he brought my face closer. Our tongues tangled in a game of supremacy, which I won in a few seconds. It was as obvious as day that he was just playing. I broke up from the kiss and kissed him on his lips, cheeks, and jaw before I started kissing down his body. I sucked on his neck as I tried to retract my elongated canines. The urge to permanently mark him and make him mine was too strong for me to resist, but I had to stop myself before I made a lasting mistake.He still didn't know we were mates. I couldn't afford to mark him against his will. It would only make him hate me. He gasped when my fangs scraped the side of his neck where my mark would be, should I decide to make him mine. “I need you, Alex. My body is too hot,” he wriggled under me as he tried to remove his
I didn't stop until I heard him cry before he climaxed. His cum hit the inner walls of my mouth as I swallowed it all letting no go to waste. I loved the sweet taste of his cum. It didn't taste as bad as I always thought a man's cum would be. I liked it and even looked forward to having a taste each time.His heat must have been heavy for him to climax after a few bobs of my head. It made me wonder how long he had tried to tough out his heat before he called me. Obviously, he didn't ask for my help when he realized he was in heat. He fucking went to a woman when he had me! He didn't even let me know until he couldn't control his heat.I tried not to be petty, but it was difficult not to do that. If only he didn't tell me about it. It would have been better. I wouldn't have even minded that at all, but he didn't keep that information to himself. He told me about it as if he wanted to rub it in my face, to let me know he could always get any woman of his choice whenever he wanted. Sta
“Alex!” He cried out when I curled my fingers and made a motion to take them out, still curved. His body shook, and his breathing became heavier.“Do you like it?” I whispered as I continued to finger fuck him, gently slipping my fingers out, prepping him for what was about to come. I doubt anything could save him this instant. He made a mistake when he called me to help him through his heat. Unknown to him, he had indirectly become mine. Now he would be bound to me for life as I would be the only one his body would crave during his heat periods. I just pray his body remained this way, so he wouldn't even go into his rutting period.It wasn't fair though as alphas can fuck any Omega they wanted during their rut season without getting attached, but Omegas couldn't do the same; however, I was glad at that moment. The thought of having Aithan rely solely on me made it seem like I was floating on Cloud 9. “Fuck me,” he whispered, his voice sounding urgent. “I need you, Alex.” “With all
AITHAN The haze in my eyes seemed to have gone out after he fucked me for the fourth time. Yet I didn't feel satisfied just by his touch. I wanted more from him. “How are you feeling now?” He placed his right hand on my left cheek, his gaze filled with concern. “Was what I did enough?” “Not at all.” I stared into his eyes. Who would have thought I would ever have any reason to come to him? I believed he would be the one begging me to let him touch me until I felt the change in my body this morning. I didn't even know it was happening until I got an intense sharpness in my lower back, as if I might die should someone not touch me. Funny enough, I didn't find any other man when I failed to get my dick up with the women I brought to the hotel opposite this one. He was the only one I called. I pretended I only called him because he was the only one I was close enough to, but I knew it was more than that. Somehow, my body and mind had recognized him.“Good because I have more where t
“I'm sorry, Ly. I can't control this. I don't know what my wolf wants… I can't…” he kissed my neck before he sank his teeth into it, deeper this time. “Stop!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, not mindful of who might be outside the door. “Not my neck! You will mark me!”I tried to push him off, but he held tight. “I can't stop! It's your heat. It's affecting me!” He latched his teeth back onto my neck. My eyes rolled to the back of my head because of the pain. His shaft kept on becoming bigger until it felt like he was trying to rip my arse to shreds.I shivered under him as droplets of sweat fell on the bed under me. Yet, he didn't stop. He bit down hard as he continued to drink from me, marking me as his, while trying to kill me with his dick. “Stop! It's too painful.” Tears slid down my eyes as I bit down hard on my lower lip to stop the blinding pain. “I don't want you to mark me. I'm not a fucking Omega.” It seemed like I was about to die. I had never heard of an alpha ma
I stared at him, my eyes wide with shock. I wasn't expecting it, didn't count him as someone who would confess their feelings for someone just because they felt like it. “You love me? Like really love me?! You've known me for what, a few months? And you've already marked me without my consent? That's not love, that's an obsession!”“Not it's not.” He took a step closer to me, his eyes pleading. It wasn't the first occasion I'd seen that expression on his face, but it was the first time he looked like he was about to cry. “Aithan, please understand. My wolf chose you, and I couldn't fight it. I know it was wrong to mark you without your permission, but I couldn't help myself. I love you, and I want to be with you.”I laughed; a bitter, mocking sound. It was amusing to hear him confess his feelings when we were enemies. It was funny, something my father and Marcus would laugh over should they hear about it. “You love me? You don't even know me! You know nothing about me, except that I
I let out a dry laugh at his words, a mirth that didn't reach my heart at all. I didn't know what to do, couldn't tell what to respond to his words with. Instead of saying anything, I let out a sigh.“Lyker, I —”“Let's just give each other space. It's evident being together made us this way.” I looked up at the ceiling. “I will use suppressants to get through —”“No! You will die!” He interrupted me before I could complete my words. “I have already marked you. Until your heat is over, you can't use suppressants! You will only hurt yourself, and I don't want that. Please listen to me, Ly. I need you with me, alive. You are all —”“Stop making it dramatic. I'm not dying. Going through the heat alone might be painful, but that didn't mean I'm dying.” I let out an exasperated sigh. “Let's do as I said. I don't need you to help me through my heat.”I turned to go, but he stopped me. He wrapped his hands around my waist and brought me closer to his chest. Leaning down, he took a sniff of m
ALEX I escorted him to have his mark removed. I didn't want him to do that and was tempted to tie him to my bed so he wouldn't do something like this, but I knew it was his choice. I marked him without his consent. It would only make him hate me more should I ask him not to have it taken out. I touched the mark he placed on me, and a small smile appeared on my lips. Even if I was the only one bearing the mark, I was happy. Having his mark on me meant he liked me enough to state his position in my life. If only I could wear it the way I wanted without being asked about it by Marcus, who would undoubtedly catch his scent. “Isn't it time for you to go home?” Aithan asked as he lazily stretched in bed. His heat period ended yesterday, but he wanted to stay in this cabin until my scent had left his body. He had to lie to Viktor about his location, claiming he went on a trip with Michelle. I had to call that annoying woman to ask her help to cover us up. The prize? I had a meal with he
I never imagined that such a day would come, and faster at that. I wouldn't have believed that I would tie the knot with the person of my choice someday. I had always resolved I would get married to a girl Viktor picked, but Alex showed up and changed my mind. “You look handsome,” Pink said, standing behind me. “You are the most beautiful groom in the entire world.”“Oh, spare me that.” I rolled my eyes. I had gotten enough compliments from Viktor and Sophia, who thought I needed to hear how good I looked, for my ego. I smoothed my suit even though it wasn't necessary, staring into the mirror as a small smile crept up. They were right. I had never looked as good as I did today. It being my wedding made it the best. The black suit fitted me more than I thought it would even though it was custom-made.I paired my black jacket with a crisp white shirt and a black tie, a gift I got from Viktor. He didn't want me to match with the tie that came with my suit. He wanted something of his on
But I wanted more. I wanted him. I tugged him up, kissing him fiercely, then rolled us so I could straddle him.“My turn.” I licked down his chest, tasting salt and heat, then lingering on his nipples until he groaned my name.“Ly, you’re driving me crazy.”I went lower, sucking him slowly and deeply, savouring every shudder he gave me.I moved lower some more and gagged, and Alex’s hand pushed my head back down when I tried to escape, his fingers tangling gently in my hair.“Easy, Ly,” he murmured, his voice a low rumble, his eyes locking onto mine, soft but insistent. I groaned around him, the stretch of my lips around his thick cock sending a shiver through me. I held his gaze, determined to please him, to make him see how beautiful this was.The moonlight spilt over us, catching the gold in his hair, and I felt my chest tighten with how damn beautiful he looked, all raw and open for me.“Fuck, Aithan, you’re so good at this.” He kept brushing my cheek, guiding me as I took him dee
AITHANIt has been a month since the encounter with that bastard rapist, and things had gotten back on track. Ryder like I had suspected wasn't as bad as they made him out to be. Marcus was the one who pulled the string, controlling him with his position as the head of the family. With Ryder gone, the rest of the family united. We got rid of the mafia families that tried to challenge us. After a long day of work, Alex suggested we take a walk in the spring close to his cabin.The spring glittered under the full moon. The surface was a mirror of silver light that stretched across the clearing.I sat beside Alex, my bare feet brushing the cool grass, my eyes fixed on the sky.His golden hair caught the moonlight, shimmering like a halo, and I couldn’t help but steal a glance at him. His eyes were soft yet intense as he stared upward too.He could feel it as much as I could do, the beauty of this moment.The air was crisp, laced with the scent of pine and damp earth, and the night felt
ALEXMy heart left my body when I heard Sophia's words. I leapt from my chair and reached for her, ripping the phone off her hand. My blood grew cold as I read the text. “Did they say what they want?” Ryder asked behind me, reaching my side in a few strides. “Yes, they —”I passed the phone back to Sophia before she could complete her words and headed out, almost ripping the door off its hinges from the force I tore through it with. I heard echoing footsteps behind me as I headed for my car, but before I could open the door, Ryder placed his hand on the doorknob, stopping me. “Get your hands off!” I growled. “This isn't the fucking time to play!”“Do I look like I'm playing?” He glared, matching my tone. “You can't drive in your state. Let me do that. I promise I will take you there in time.”“Fuck off! This doesn't concern you.” I ripped his hand off, but he was persistent, holding me before I could open the door. “It concerns me, Alex. Now that I have decided to forgo the past
AITHANI know I was such a fool when I left the house without telling Alex the truth of where I was heading. I lied to him that I was going over to my bar when I wasn't. Today made it 2 days and close to 48 hours since I received the letter, and I was on my way to meet whoever sent it. On the back of the letter, they had written how to meet them. One of the specific requirements was for me to come alone else they would send the video to Alex. To keep my lover from discovering my past from them, I had to do something stupid.I know I can fight should it get to that, but there was no way of knowing what I would be up against. What if they had a gun? What if they had other people with them? I couldn't risk it. I had to play it safe, no matter how much it pained me to do so.I didn't take my car with me, as that would make it difficult for me to keep Alex in the dark. He has a tracker in my car and would know wherever I am. To be on the safer side, I had to leave my car at home and take
ALEX“Can I have a chat with you?” Ryder said when he walked into my study. He knocked before he stepped in, though. What I didn't like was how he looked like it was his right to speak to me, even if I didn't want that. “What do you want to talk about?” I closed the laptop to face him. He lifted a brow. “Won't you offer me a seat?”I gritted my teeth, keeping my anger in check. So he wouldn't gloat that he had won. I gestured to the seat across from mine. “Have a seat.”“Now that's more like.” Grinning, he sat on the chair and crossed his legs, watching me. He didn't say a word for a long time. He just watched me. “What is it you wish to discuss? Don't tell me you came in here to stare at me?” I broke the silence between us, irritated. “What if I did?” I narrowed my eyes. “I don't have all the time in the world for your shenanigans, Ryder. Why are you here?”“Where is Aithan? Your lover?”“Why? What's with you asking about him?” If I was suspicious about him from the time he step
AITHAN Ryder was lucky I was in the sitting room with Alex when he arrived, else his blood would have decorated the floor. Alex would have had his head for just looking at me, but I stopped him. My lover just doesn't seem to know his stepbrother was baiting him. Ryder, despite knowing what would have gone down if I didn't stop Alex, smiled, winked at me, turned on his steps and walked towards the stairs with his small bag. We watched him leave, humming under his breath and with a slight swag to his steps. It wasn't until he was out of earshot that I heard Sophia exhale. “Thank fuck," she whispered, looking at me with a sad smile. He didn't even look at her. What a brother he was. I bet he only wanted Sophia to return with him to the city, so she wouldn't be near Alex. “I hate him,” Alex muttered under his breath. “He's not —” I swallowed down the word I wanted to say. Letting it out would infuriate my lover, who looked like he was losing it. Ryder wasn't bad, though. I didn't
ALEX I would be a damned liar if I said I didn't feel there was something Aithan was keeping from me. I knew he didn't tell me everything, but there was no way to confirm that. He hid that letter, and I couldn't find it in the room when I searched for it. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something wasn't right, but Aithan kept on insisting that he was okay and that the letter was just from someone who might have seen him killing those men. I asked if it was the same man he thought he saw at the restaurant. He hesitated before he denied it. I didn't believe that, but who was I to argue with him?I couldn't just afford to be given cold shoulders, as that was something Aithan was excellent at. Any minor argument, he will keep a long face, and make me grovel on my feet just to get back with him. Not like I was complaining or anything. “Good morning,” he whispered, rubbing his eyes. I had been long awake, staring at the ceiling, while he slept. I didn't just want to disturb him
“Open the letter and check. You might get an inkling of who sent it,” Alex said, his voice breaking the silence.I hesitated for a moment, my heart racing with anxiety. What if it was something bad? What if it were someone from my past, come to haunt me? I didn't want to open it. I wanted to throw the letter as far away from me as I could, but Alex's encouraging gaze gave me the courage to open the envelope. I slid my finger under the flap and pulled out the letter inside.As I unfolded the paper, my eyes scanned the page, my heart sinking with every word. It was a letter, all right. But it wasn't from a friend or a bill collector. It was from someone who knew my darkest secrets, someone who threatened to expose me to the world.My hands shook as I read it, my mind reeling with fear. How did they know? Who told them? And what did they want from me?Blinking, I reread the letter. "Aithan,I know what happened that night. I know what those men did to you. And I know what you did to the
