I pounced on the body close to me, rubbing myself on the person like a Cheshire cat. The scent of CITRUS was very strong in the room. It was Richard, and he has finally come. A smile formed on my lips at that thought. Finally, he was here.
I moved closer to the source of heat, digging my nose into his neck and inhaling all of him. I took a deep breath as I inhaled that musky scent of his. I have missed this. The heat began to flare in her ugly head in response to her mate’s scent. I moved closer to Richard until I was so close to him that I could feel every contour of his body.
I threw one of my legs over him while my fingers went under his clothes, running through his bare chest, smoothing the spare air that were there. I dragged my hands down, trailing a line from his chest down to his waist. I felt a thin material, he was clad in only his boxers. I ran my hands over the thin material, feeling something obstructing my hands. Curiosity got the better of me and I grabbed onto the object that was obstructing me. It was smooth and long and...
"If you don’t want me to bend you over the bed and take you, I suggest you remove your hands from me, mate." Richard growled in that raspy bass voice I was beginning to like. I froze, my hands stopping their movement at his words. Shit, I was touching his organ.
Organ? Seriously, that is what you are going to call it? Kiayra called out in a mocking voice, laughing at my expense.
What do you expect me to call th-that beast? Besides, I was taken by surprise, so don’t blame me.
Whatever, girl? She rolled her eyes, not believing me at all.
"How are you feeling now, mate?" He asked, holding me closer to him, pressing soft kisses on my forehead.
"I feel..." well, that is surprising. I checked my body, searching for signs of the heat, but I couldn’t feel it. "I feel better. I am no longer clouded with the urge to fuck anything in sight." He let out a chuckle at my words, his chest vibrating as the sound came out of him. I felt a little sense of accomplishment, as this was probably the first time, I heard him laugh or chuckle.
"I had the pack doctor make a suppressant for you, although the effect will soon start wearing off. But that shouldn’t be a problem. I am here now.” He explained, dragging the sheets over our bodies as the weather began to get a bit cold.
"Where were you all this time that your mind was blocked? We were all trying to reach you. Do you know I almost got mauled by horny unmated men?”
"Who were those trying to maul you? Give me their names and I will give them a befitting punishment." He said, the anger very much evident in his voice. His eyes were black at the thought of any man taking advantage of his mate’s state.
"Just stop this! You don’t have any right to get angry. If you had put things in place, it wouldn’t have happened. " I snapped, my anger rushing to the front.
"I am sorry mate. I didn’t mean for any of those things to happen to you. I didn’t think your heat would start very soon.
"What did you mean by ‘you didn’t think my heat would start very soon’? Don’t you know that once we get our mate, it is bound to start? You just left me here. Since I came here, you have never made time for me. I had to seek help from a pack member to get familiar with my OWN PACK!" I flared, angry pheromones radiating from me.
“Who helped you navigate the pack? Was it a male? Don't think I haven't heard rumors about you and your warrior circulating.”
"That is beside the point, Richard! Don’t try to change the subject!"
"Alright, go on. We will address it later."
“When do you plan on introducing me to the pack? The pack doesn’t even know that they have a Luna. Because if you had done that, we wouldn’t have had this problem." I tried to make him see reasons with me. I need to get to know my pack at least, because sometimes, I don’t even feel like the alpha mate sometimes.
"I am still putting a lot of things in place. I'll introduce you to the pack whenever I get the chance. For now, just stay inside till your heat is gone."
"What exactly are you putting ‘in place’? I will let you know that my dad was an alpha and they didn’t have to put "things in place" before my mom was introduced.” It was obvious he was just trying to stall time. If he wanted this to be done today, it could happen.
"You know what, let us just forget about this. I took the time off to be with you, and I wouldn’t want it to be filled with arguments."
“If you need to take the time off to be with your mate, in heat, then there is no need. Just go back and continue doing whatever you were doing. Besides, we wouldn’t be completing the mate bond today, or anytime soon."
I turned away from him, facing the wall, taking all the blankets with me. He was beginning to make me angry, and I didn’t really feel like being close to him. "What the hell did you just say?"
“I said I don’t feel like completing the bond. So, tell the pack doctor or wherever the hell you got that suppressant that they will be making more of that shit to last me for the period of the heat." I retorted. My anger was just at the surface, and I was ready to lash out.
"Why would you say that? We are mates. It is our duty to complete the bond and produce heirs."
“Well, I don’t know. Maybe it is due to the fact that I don’t know you."
“How can you say you don’t know me? We are mates. They were destined by the moon goddess to be together. You are my other half."
“I literally don’t know anything about you Richard! When have we ever sat down and talked about us, or even gone on a date? I had to find out about you from Google! And that should say a lot.” My voice could be heard across the room as I replied. I got up from bed, trying to distance myself from the source of my stress. "I am not particularly interested in fucking strangers."
That last sentence hit a soft spot in his heart, because he got up and came closer to me, his body covering me. "What did you just say?!!" he barked, his alpha voice coming through. His eyes flashed black as his wolf threatened to come out. His wolf didn’t like that statement one bit.
He inched closer to me until I could feel his breath on me. His actions were to intimidate me and scare me. But he will need to do better. All these things can’t work on me. "I said I wasn't going to fuck a stranger!"
I had thought he would lash out at me, shouting all over the place, leading us to have a major argument. But I didn’t see what was coming. Otherwise, I would have tried to avoid it.
He grabbed me, placing one of his hands on my waist while the other reached to smoothen the frown lines on my face. His brown eyes were staring deep into my soul. I moved back, trying to avoid his strong-arm hold. But he encircled his other hand around my waist and drew me in, pulling me into himself. "You look so beautiful."
And boom. Whatever barrier I had built around him to keep him out came tumbling down at his words. I looked up at the ceiling, studying the intricate details of the designs while doing everything I could to avoid his gaze. Wow, it is really hot in here. The heat must be coming back.
He placed his hands on my neck and leaned down, crashing his lips on mine. Warning! Warning! Push him away. You are falling for his traps. I ignored all the warnings and responded to the kiss, pulling his hair as his mouth continued exploring my lips.
I moaned as our mouths continued doing the tango dance, our hands roaming about each other, exploring each other. The bond flared, but not in a negative way. The heat began to respond positively to him and she reared her ugly head, eager to complete the mating.
We pulled back to catch our breath, and I looked at him, really stared at his handsome face. His eyes glowing gold showing his desires. "My Luna." He breathed before he took my lips again, biting the lower one to make me open it. I opened it and his tongue delved into me, tasting me. I wasn’t one to be unresponsive, so I delved in too, following his lead.
He grabbed my ass and hitched me up on his body. In the grip vice, my legs encircled his waist, refusing to let go. He began walking backwards. He moved his lips to my neck, sucking in to the place that would bear his mark. His canines grazing through them. And that was my undoing.
A loud wanton moan escaped me as pleasure overtook me. I began grinding on him, rocking my hips on him. He continued trailing wet kisses down my neck, sucking and blowing at each spot. My pheromones were now in the air as we continued.
And then, my back hit the bed.
