Chapter 33 #2
“I say fuck yes,” Reid said, burying his face against my chest. “I think I need a nap before we break the furniture.”
“Whatever you want, sweetheart.” I paused, checking in with Finn. “Are ye okay with us leaving?”
“Yes.” He gave us an indulgent smile. “Go take care of your mate. We can debrief tomorrow.”
“Your mate.”
That was right. Reid was mine. I was his.
The love I’d searched for all these years was now in my arms. In my heart. In my very soul.
As I walked into the woods, Reid smirked against my chest. “I can feel how happy that made you.”
I feigned ignorance, wanting to hear it out of his mouth. “What?”
Reid shot me a look that suggested he knew exactly what I was doing, but loved me for it all the same. “When Finn called me your mate. That’s what we are now, ye know. We’re mates. I’m your mate, and you’re mine.”
I growled, lowering my head to kiss him. “If ye want a nap, ye need to stop saying that.”
Reid looked up from under hooded lids, his lust rising to meet mine. “Suddenly I’m not feeling so tired.”
It would’ve been faster to shift and let Reid ride me again, but I wasn’t putting him down right now. Not even to get inside him faster.
Besides, this delicious build of lust? The echo of Reid’s feeding into my own? The tension that increased with every measured step I took?
That was better than any foreplay.
I took the long way to the fishing cabin.
I couldn’t go near the main clan areas, not right now.
Nobody would blink twice at my nudity or that Reid was in my arms. However, the massive fucking erection I was sporting would raise more than one set of eyebrows.
Not wanting to give my friends enough fodder to tease me with for the next decade, I decided the longer walk was worth it.
Reid wriggled. “Can you carry me a different way?”
“Sure.” I paused. “What did you have in mind?”
When I started walking again, Reid had his legs around my waist and arms around my neck. I didn’t know what was driving me crazier—his hands tugging at my hair, his hardness pressed against my stomach, or the kisses he was dropping on whatever skin he could reach.
Scratch that, it was the bond. There was a very real possibility that I might spontaneously combust before we made it to the cabin.
That or nail Reid against a tree. If I used my arms to hold him, he’d be okay.
Right?
It wasn’t worth the risk. Not for our first time post-mating.
I wanted to be somewhere secure, where I could drop my guard and give Reid my full focus. Where we could be as loud as we wanted, as we needed, without worrying we’d be overheard.
Somehow, we made it to the cabin. No idea what happened in that final mile. I was too busy kissing Reid to concentrate on the direction we were going in.
My wolf must’ve taken the lead, guiding us there safely. Unsurprising given how fucking ecstatic he was about this turn of events. Never before had the two of us been in such perfect sync.
It’d be this way going forward. I was sure of it. Why would it be any different when we both had the same purpose?
To protect and love our mate. To make him happy.
Obviously, there were other purposes too, but no other would ever be as important as this one.
When the door clicked shut behind us, Reid wriggled to be put down. “Need to taste you.”
“I’ll never say no to that.” I gently set him on the floor. It was completely pointless, what with how Reid impatiently dropped to his knees. “Careful, sweetheart, you’ll hurt yourself.”
“I’m fine,” he said distractedly, stroking my cock as he eyed it. “God, I need you so badly.”
I didn’t get a chance to tell him the same. My ability to speak was stolen the instant he put his mouth on me.
He wasn’t tentative. Didn’t go slow. No, Reid hollowed his cheeks like his life depended on it. His head bobbed furiously, his heated gaze never leaving mine.
“Fuck, sweetheart,” I panted, cupping his head. “Keep going like that and I’m going to come.”
If anything, that just had him taking me deeper. Swallowing around my length. Humming like the precum I was feeding him was the most delicious meal ever.
I wanted to last. I did. Every encounter with Reid had blown my previous experiences out of the water. But this? Feeling his own lust rise along my own? It was something new. Something extraordinary.
One of Reid’s hands cupped my balls, rolling them once. That was all it took for me to start shooting down his throat.
There was a pulse of surprise through the bond, and then Reid’s orgasm slammed into me. I cried out, my hips jerking as another wave went through me, unloading more cum into Reid’s waiting mouth.
“Shit.” I pulled out hurriedly as Reid coughed. “Are ye okay?”
“Yeah,” he rasped dazedly. “Fuck, that was so hot.”
I tugged him to his feet and steadied him. “Ye want to talk about hot? How about the fact that ye just came hands free?”
“Couldn’t help it,” he said dreamily. “When you came, it was like my soul wanted me to as well. Brilliant. Bloody brilliant.”
I kissed him before chuckling. “Apparently good orgasms make you extremely posh.”
“Stupendous orgasms, I think you mean. Actually, we might need a new word to describe those, because holy shit.”
“Holy shit is right.” I kissed the top of his head. “Want to go again or take a nap first?”
Reid tugged me towards the bed, a mischievous grin lighting up his face. “Changed my mind—sleep is for the weak. We have eternity, so we can sleep later.”
He tumbled us down onto the sheets, giggling as we rolled. “Hope you’re not tired, Ev, because I’ve got plans for you.”
I reared up over him, rolling my already hardening cock over his. “I wouldn’t want it any other way.”
It took some warming up before Reid’s erection rallied, but before long he was as hard and aching as I was. Probably helped along by the fact I’d been sucking his cock while prepping him.
“That’s enough,” he breathed, his heels digging into my back. “Get inside me, Ev. I’m ready.”
I pushed his knees up to his chest, circling his hole teasingly with the head of my cock. “Are ye sure? This surface isn’t very hard, and you did specify you wanted to be fucked through a hard surface.”
Reid’s amusement flickered through the bond a split second before it showed on his face.
It sent a thrill through me. I hoped feeling him like this never got old.
“Didn’t take ye for a quitter, Evan. There’s hard slats under the mattress.
Are ye telling me you can’t fuck me hard enough to break even one of them? ”
I snarled as white-hot lust rolled through me at the challenge. “You best hold on, sweetheart.”
“I’m still in charge,” he reminded me as I sank into his warmth. “So while you’re seeing how hard you can fuck me, don’t forget that.”
“Never.” I kissed his mating mark, my lips lingering there. Already the bite had faded, but like our bond, it would never disappear. “Don’t worry, this is the last time I’ll be gentle.”
Reid opened his mouth to respond, but instead he just moaned, my sudden driving thrust catching him off guard.
I didn’t give him time to catch his breath. Using the weight of my body to pin him to the bed, I fucked him relentlessly. It was a good thing he didn’t want slow and gentle, because I didn’t think I could do that right now. The mating bond was too fresh, too vivid, too consuming.
His mouth surged up to meet mine as I tunnelled in and out of him. Under the sound of our intermingled moans, there was an ominous creak of wood.
I smirked against Reid’s lips. Looked like he was going to get his wish.
“Harder,” he groaned urgently, his nails scrabbling at my back. “Right there. Fuck, Evan.”
I canted my hips, making sure to reach exactly where Reid wanted me. The cracks were louder now, but I was too far gone to care. It was like having an orgasm in stereo. There were two of us being dragged forwards, pushed faster and higher by the other’s lust.
I just knew the ending was going to be explosive.
“Yes, yes, yes,” Reid chanted, his hips bucking up to meet me. “So close.”
The building pressure at the base of my spine was near impossible to ignore. I gritted my teeth, needing Reid to fall first. I suspected I knew what would do it too. “Come for me, sweetheart.”
Then, I bent my head to lick over my mating mark.
The result was instantaneous. Reid’s mouth fell open on a silent scream as he came.
As his orgasm flooded the bond, I was anything but silent.
“Reid,” I bellowed. “Sweetheart.”
“I’m here.” He pressed his lips to my neck, right over the pulse point. “I’m yours, baby. Your mate.”
Reid knew how to push my buttons as well as I knew his. My vision whited out as my hips jerked, my orgasm feeling like it lasted forever.
My mate shivered against me, his cock kicking against my abs. “Oh god. It’s like I’m coming again.”
Before I could respond, there was another loud crack.
The mattress sagged beneath us, and Reid let out an alarmed squeak as we dropped a foot. The frame had finally given way, leaving us in a small dip with the mattress bending up around us.
“Oh dear,” he said faintly. “This can’t be good.”
I laughed, kissing him. “You did say you wanted me to fuck you through something hard. Mission accomplished.”
Reid’s fingers tapped against my back. “I wonder what type of wood is the strongest? I need to look it up, because we’ll definitely need a frame made of that.”
“Or”—I kissed along his cheekbones—“we could buy a steel one.”
“That might last us a month, I suppose.”
“I don’t have to fuck you so hard, you know.”
Reid wrinkled his nose. “Um, no. I’m going to fully embrace the faster healing from being mated and have you fuck me roughly on a regular basis, thank ye very much.”
I snorted. “So glad ye’ve found the positive side of the mating bond.”
Reid hugged me tighter. “There are many, plonker. Best of which is knowing I’ve got you for the rest of eternity.”
Kissing his lips, I was nothing but grateful. We hadn’t had the easiest path, but I’d walk it over and over again, knowing this was the destination. “Always, sweetheart.”
