The minute I entered my car, my phone dinged with a message. I swiped it, thinking it was a text from Marcus, only to sit up faster when I saw Aithan's name. “Where are you? I need your help," his text read, causing all the blood to drain from my face at the urgency of the text. Wasting no time, I dialled his number. My heart thumped loudly in my chest as his phone rang. I couldn't help the fear that took over at the thought of something happening to him. Aithan would never send a message like this if it wasn't critical. I might not know much about him, but I knew enough.He answered on the second ring. “Aithan? Where are you?” I asked, without waiting for him to speak. The thumping of my heart increased as I waited for a response from him. “I need your help.” His voice was low and tired, sending a shiver of worry down my spine. I'd never heard him sound like this. My Aithan had never spoken to me this way. I had gotten used to hearing him yell at me."What's wrong? What happened?
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
AITHANI wanted us to stay at home to wait for Max's call, but Alex was hellbent on taking me out as he had planned before we got Max's update. This was our first date in forever, and he wanted to make it better than the last one we had. It wasn't the best of dates. I got shot the minute I stepped away from my car. To think we hadn't gone on one since that incident. “Order anything you want. Feel free okay?” Alex said as he passed the menu and the ticking pen over to me.Taking them from him, I rolled my eyes at that, pursing my lips. “You make it sound like I can't afford my meal, Alex. You might be the head of your family now, but I believe I have more money than you do. I'm Viktor's favourite son, after all.”I just hope I'm still his favourite. He hadn't called me since the last time we spoke, and I knew it would take more to get him to extend the olive branch first. I didn't want to be the first, as that would mean I got to swallow my pride and promise things I wouldn't even kee
“Don't change your mind.” “Hello, boss?” Max's voice caused me to tear my gaze away from my naughty sister. “Sophia said you called? Is everything okay?”“There was a raid in the warehouse. Though I sent some men to take care of it, I thought you would wish to know about it.”I gripped my phone hard, feeling a slow rage creeping in. “When was it? Do you know who did it?” “We are still investigating. I will let you know when we get something from it.”Aithan walked over to me and placed his hand on my shoulder. “Okay. Kindly notify me once you do. Be safe,” I added before I disconnected and turned to my mate. “Our warehouse was raided.”“What?” Aithan drew a step back. “When? How? By whom? Did they get them? Tell me they did.”I shook my head and let out a sigh. “They didn't.”It would have been great if they did. “What do we do now? Should we head over there? Were any of our men wounded? Do they need our help?”“I doubt.” I passed the phone back to the owner so I could hug him. “
ALEXLuca didn't show up after our dispute. His absence didn't lessen my anxiety, it only made me apprehensive. I couldn't tell what he was planning, or how he would meet Aithan. I had yet to tell him of my confrontation with Luca. I doubt I would, though. I couldn't let him see that side of me, know what a psycho the man he loves is. Protecting him from the truth was the least I could do. If I have my way, he will never get to know the truth. Keeping him in the dark would only put a little strain on me, as the knowledge that I had all along been lying to him would forever plague me, but it would make things easier. He wouldn't have to force himself to be with me just because he liked me. “Alex?”I blinked when I felt him wave his palm in my face. Blinking once more, I looked at him, furrowing my brows. “What's wrong?”“I've been calling you for the last freaking minute without getting any response, and you are asking me what's wrong? Are you for real?” He narrowed his eyes at me.
AITHAN Alex seemed off. For a week, he had been acting so absentmindedly, that it was disturbing. I tried to know what was wrong with him, but he waved it off as being worried about his men and how to go about his father's official funeral. I knew it wasn't true, though. We might not have known each other for a long time, but I could tell when he's been bothered by something. At that moment, he looked as if he had enough to worry, and more to think about. “Your coffee.” I passed a steaming mug of coffee to him and sat opposite him. He nodded his thanks before he took a face, smiled and said, “You have finally gotten the taste right, Ly. It's perfect, just the way I prefer it.”“I know, right?” I grinned. Finally, my good work paid off. For days, I had been perfecting that particular taste he liked in his coffee. He didn't ask me to do that, I just wanted to do something for him. Staying at home had gotten so damned boring, and I needed something to keep my mind off certain things,
I snorted. Everything that came out of the bastard's mouth felt incredulous. He didn't seem like he was joking, though. He looked serious and wanted me to know what he thought about my union with Ly.While a few of the men who were against the relationship and how things turned out after Marcus's death kept their mouths shut, he didn't. “That's rich coming from you, Lucas. You've always been jealous of my success, and now you're trying to spin this as if I'm somehow less capable because of Aithan? Is that what this is about? All that preaching about admiration is just beating about the bush for you?” I walked back to my desk and sat on it, with my feet crossed and my arms folded. I watched him, watching every move of his body, and how nervous he was even though he was acting like he wasn't. “I'm not jealous of you, Alex. I'm just worried. You're changing, and not for the better.” Lucas's face darkened, and he clenched his fists once more. “I want you to realize where you are mista
“Lucas,” I warned, my voice getting dangerously low. He might think we were playing over this, not knowing I wasn't fucking happy hearing him talk about my mate like that. He let out a sigh, looking down at his feet before he returned his gaze to my face. He rubbed the back of his head, gulping, preparing himself for what he was about to say. “You changed drastically, you know? Ever since he walked into your life, you transformed into someone who was barely recognizable. This isn't the Alex I know.”“Why? It's not as if you liked the Alex I was before.” I arched a brow at him. “We haven't been close since we were little. Don't make it sound like I changed since I got a lover.”Lucas and I might have been cousins, but we weren't that familiar with each other. He never hid his disgust and jealousy over me, and always made certain I knew how he felt. Talking now, like we had been friends for ages and only had issues because I got a mate, infuriated me. I didn't like the way he made it
ALEX“What the fucking hell is wrong with you?!” Lucas seethed, pacing the floor. “What did you think you would gain from this? The men are revolting! How did you let things escalate this far?!" “Because you leaked the news.” While he was acting like a mad dog let out of the cage, I was the more rational one. I wasn't in the mood to scream at anyone. I had done my fair share of yelling with the men a few minutes ago.He whirled around at that, his eyes narrowed. “What the fucking hell are you talking about? Who leaked what news?”“You know what you did.” I crossed my legs, looking nonchalant. “I don't need to tell you that.”“What are you talking about? Are you by chance speaking about the small Mafia families?” He drew a step towards me, the frown on his face getting more pronounced the nearer he got. “What else?” “Did you believe I would stoop so low as to do something like that? What do you take me for?”“A man who didn't think twice about sucking up to my father won't care for
I winced sharply when I sat down on the soft cushion of the couch. We left our romantic getaway a few hours ago, and I was yet to recover from everything. Tan was reluctant to help my healing process, so I would experience the price of my actions. 'Sluts like you need to know how painful it is to fuck like rabbits.' Those were his words before he broke the connection between us, leaving me in fucking pain! “Are you okay?” Sophia asked with a smile, giving me a knowing look. She didn't look concerned about me, just curious to know what the hell I had been up to, and I had no freaking desire to tell her about it, or else I would only give her the right weapon to tease me with. “Yeah, I'm good. Never been better.” I smiled at her, the expression forced. I wanted to yell that I wasn't okay, for her to just leave me to rest, but I knew it wouldn't even happen, not with how curious she was. Yelling would only make her curious.“I see.” Nodding, she crossed her legs. “So, how was the tri
He removed his fingers from my hole and flipped me back so I could watch him. With his eyes locked with mine, he licked his fingers. His lips glistened and when he smiled, my heart skipped a beat. The fluttering in my stomach increased. I opened my legs wide in a silent invitation, eager to have him fuck me. I bit my bottom lip as I tried to look as alluring as I could.I needed him so fucking bad, to feel him tearing my insides and making me scream out in desire. I wanted so fucking much from him.His golden eyes gazed at my dick before he licked his lips. I could see the raw desires in his eyes, and it made me eager to have him fuck me. “If you want me to fuck you, Ly, you need to work for it.” He slowly ran his tongue over the tip of his fangs, prompting me to gasp.My hole clenched once more, and I felt my dick harden. My hole contracted, wishing to have him in me. “You are not fun,” I whined like a kid, glaring at him. “Why don't you just fuck me already? Why make me work for
