Chapter 9 Thorne
Chapter nine
Thorne
His words replay in my head over and over again, making me harder by the second.
This primal urge to rip his pajama bottoms off and bury myself inside of him makes sense now.
I crawl off him slowly, as if I’m stuck in molasses.
My inner lion growls, hating that I’m moving away from our omega. But I need some space to think clearly.
‘No, don’t think. Mate. Breed. Our omega needs us.’
I shake my head, standing and taking a step back. It’s getting harder to fight that primal side of me, and I’m afraid of scaring Hayden. His tempting scent of cookies and coffee is wafting around our cabin and driving me wild. No wonder I’m having such a hard time concentrating.
From here, I can see the thick outline of his erection in his pajamas. The material is wet from all his leaking slick. Little beads of sweat are making his face glisten. I’ve never seen such a beautiful sight. My omega is hard and ready for me. I growl.
Hayden’s eyes snap up to mine. “If you don’t want me anymore, I can lock myself up in the bedroom. Although my heat usually lasts a little over a week, so I’m afraid you might be out of a bed.”
My eyes widen with shock. His breathing is labored, and he’s still trembling.
He gets to his feet, and I swear more slick permeates the room.
His hand grasps his cock, and he gives it a stroke.
With anyone else, it would look like he’s trying to tease me, but I can tell that my omega is suffering.
The older an omega gets, the harder their heats are.
Only an alpha’s knot will make him feel better. My knot.
I groan.
He turns away from me, stepping toward the bedroom.
My lion roars. I can’t let him go. Unless he doesn’t want me to help, there’s no way in hell I can just turn a blind eye.
“Hayden, please. I’ve spent years craving you, yearning for you.
And now you’re here. Fate brought us back together. Please let me help you.”
He’s still in his right mind, and I want his full consent.
I need to know now because if he doesn’t want this, doesn’t want me, then I’m going to have to take painful measures to hold myself back.
We will both hit a point where the sexual need will be too overwhelming.
But if I take suppressants now, then I can still be by his side to help him.
Because, whether he wants my cock or not, I plan on taking care of my omega.
I’ll be here to feed him and clean him between waves.
I’ll be by his side to make sure he’s hydrated and safe.
Fate brought us back together, and I don’t want to squander this beautiful opportunity. I will do everything in my power to make Hayden happy and smile that stunning smile again.
