CHAPTER FOURTEEN – Kodiak
Watching Nicolette laugh with Ezekiel in the kitchen made me want to tear him in two. Her gorgeous eyes shining, her lovely cheeks flushing when he touches her. That all should be with me. Mine, mine, mine!
Each day only got worse. The drive to chase away any other Alpha and claim her had gained strength. Because she had been so exhausted by her episode in the woods, I reined in those instincts and treated her with gentleness and patience. Dad said it could take a week for her to heal, but she fucking seemed to have enough energy to dance around the kitchen with Ezekiel as they tidied up from dinner tonight.
Silas hadn’t come home with us today. When we docked the boat, he went right into town to the pub. I never saw him at home with a drink in hand, but no doubt he was hiding it. Another time, another day, I’d kick his ass and save him from himself. But the way he treated Nicolette, he could damn well drink himself dead.
Fuck, she could move. Dancing she really came alive. Sinfully graceful.
My cock pushed at my jeans, barely able to be contained. My vision narrowed and focused solely on her. Hot blood raced through my veins. Mine.
Nicolette spun with the dish towel held high in the air. She whipped it down and around, swaying her hips like an exotic belly dancer. She squealed with laughter as Atka tried to nab the cloth out of her hand.
Ezekiel was laughing so hard, he leaned against the counter for support. His gaze never left her.
Yeah, she cuddled with me on the couch and laughed at shows. I’ve taught her things, and she’s ever the attentive student. Dad gets along with her, and she even said they were cleaning up the greenhouse this afternoon. I never thought my father would get around to it. She’s everything I’ve ever needed, and I couldn’t stand even thinking that she might choose Ezekiel over me.
Damn me all to hell, he was good to her. He’s had a few casual girlfriends, but I’d never seen him look at a female like he looked at Nicolette. He was as far gone as I was, and that drove me even more bonkers.
She raced around the room with the husky chasing her, jumping over a chair as if it were a tiny pebble in her way. Her boobs bounced, hinting at hard nipples under her sweater. The way her leggings hugged her sweet ass was perfect.
Then suddenly she hopped on the couch beside me and hid behind me. Her hands rested on my shoulders as she giggled. “Save me, save me!”
Her touch was like a spark to dry and explosive tinder. I was off the couch and throwing her over my shoulder before I even realized what I was doing. She let out a small shriek, still laughing as if this were part of the game.
I swiftly marched down the hall. With each step, the demand to make her mine rang clearer.
“Kodiak?” Nicolette tried to wiggle free, but I held her firm.
Atka followed us, barking and wagging his tail. I bent my head toward him and snarled.
The dog stopped following and stared after us. Ezekiel hurried to the head of the hall, a frown creasing his face. “Kodiak, what are you doing?”
Inside of my room, now Nicolette’s room, I kicked the door closed behind me. My chest heaved as I partially tossed her onto the bed. I turned and locked the door. For good measure, I yanked the dresser and put it in front of it too.
“What’s going on?” Nicolette’s eyes were wide and her skin flushed. Her gaze raked down my body, pausing on my massive dick.
The scent of her immediately filled my nose. Reason fled my head. I yanked open my shirt and tossed it onto the floor.
The doorknob rattled, and Ezekiel pounded on the door. “What’s happening? Are you okay, Nicolette?”
She wet her lips. That sensual little tongue peeking out. “I’m fine.” She clutched the bottom of her sweater as I put a knee on the bed. “It’s okay, Ezekiel. Kodiak and I are just going to have a talk.”
A talk. Yeah, right. I wanted her screaming my name as I fucked her senseless.
Ezekiel hit the door once more and growled under his breath. “If you need me, just call. I will break down this door and beat his presumptuous ass.”
I smirked at that. Like he could.
Nicolette was mine.
She held up a hand almost like she was about to poke me in the chest, but stopped just before contact. “We are just going to talk. Don’t come any closer.”
I chuckled and popped the top button of my jeans. “Talk all you want, baby. But my mouth is going to be busy doing other things.” I crawled closer to her, wanting all of her. “Devilish things. Things that will light your body on fire.”
Nicolette whimpered and scooted backward against the mountain of pillows at the head of the bed. Her legs squeezed together, and her tropical scent grew stronger. “We’re going to talk. You can’t just whisk me away and lock me in a room. If you want to spend time with me, you have to ask.” Her voice trembled. She picked up a pillow and placed it in front of her like a shield. “I haven’t had enough time yet to make a choice, and it’s unfair—”
“It’s unfair to make me wait this long to taste you again.” I batted away her pillow, and when she grabbed a second one, I pinned it to the bed and leaned in to run my tongue up the side of her neck. “Your pussy is the most delicious thing I’ve ever put into my mouth.”
Nicolette gasped and pushed at my shoulders, gripping me as if she never wanted to let go at the same time. “We can’t…” She swallowed hard as her nails dug into me. “We can’t do this. I like both you and Ezekiel, and my heat is messing with all of us.” I flicked my tongue over her earlobe, and she shuddered. “Oh God. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. I just want…” A nip and tug. “I just want…”
I grasped her chin and mashed my mouth to hers. Her lips were so soft, so compliant as I parted them to let my tongue slip through. I ate up all the little noises she made, those sweet words. Of course she didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but I needed to show her she was meant to be mine.
Her fingers slid down from my shoulders and wandered over my bare chest. I kissed her deep and hard, pressing her back against the pillows. Pushing a leg up between hers, I bumped my thigh against her hot spot. Wetness had already soaked through. A growl rumbled in my throat. “Tell me what you want.”
“I want…” Oh how she fucking struggled with her control. I loved seeing how it crumbled as I kissed along her jaw and rubbed her with my leg. Her hips arched as she grabbed a handful of my hair. “You. I want you. Take me.”
Dropping a hand between her legs, I kneaded her pussy through her drenched leggings. That fact that I’d made her this wet so quickly made my cock pulse with pained want. I did this. Mine.
“I’m going to take you hard. In every way.” I took hold of the band of her pants and yanked them down along with her lacy red panties. So bright and rich like her hair. I had no doubt she’d blaze like the brightest of suns on the darkest of days here.
Nicolette’s socks came off with her leggings. Her toes were painted blue with red and yellow flowers on them. I’d never been so fascinated by someone’s feet in my life. I kissed along the tops of them as I spread her sexy legs. Slick glistened on her inner thighs and vulva. “Fuck, yes.”
She grabbed my hand as I cupped her pussy, biting her lower lip. “I think you should know…” She mewled as I nudged her clit. “You should know I’m a virgin.”
I wanted to roar with victory. No other male had ever had her in the way I would, and no one else would ever again. Blind desire pushed me, but I fisted a pillow with my free hand. This had to be done right. She was trembling, unbroken. She was giving this gift to me.
Kissing her more tenderly, I brushed a red curl from her face. “Then we’ll take it slow. Work you up to my cock.”
Her fingers skimmed over the head of my erection poking out from my open jeans. “So big.”
Nicolette’s breathy voice and teasing touch had me groaning. I lifted off her sweater and nuzzled her perky tits in her lacy bra. I swept my beard over the soft tops of them and followed it with kisses and nips. She ran her hands over my head, grinding her hips against me.
“You make it so hard to even keep an ounce of control, baby.” I played with her hardened nipples through the silk with my teeth until I discovered this bra opened in the front. Biting the band on one side, I jerked my head to free her boobs. They shimmied as the bra fell to the sides and my mouth was fast on the right one.
With a small cry, Nicolette wrapped her legs around my waist. “Screw control. I need you now.”
This sexy little minx had me truly and completely. Patient me wanted to eat that pussy again, work her up with my tongue and fingers. But she commanded me. She needed me now and I would give all of me to her.
Kissing her, I rid myself of my jeans and boxers to press my naked body against hers. The fire between us was raging. When her pussy grazed the length of my shaft, I nearly lost it.
Slow. No matter how hard I wanted to take her, she was a virgin. This had to be careful.
I reached down to rub her clit, and her hips jerked as she let out a high pitched cry. “Fuck, I’m so sensitive!”
Pleasure rumbled from deep in my chest. I circled her clit several times before I dipped a finger into her. Oh the noises she made, the way she writhed under me, how her pretty eyes fluttered. This Omega was perfect.
“So beautiful,” I murmured against her mouth. “Come once before I fill you. Let me hear it.”
A second finger had her clinging to me. I barely had to pump my hand with how quickly she rocked her hips. Sinuous and delicious. Her slick soaked everything.
“Come for me,” I repeated with a more commanding tone.
A half a minute more and she was singing with her orgasm. Her head thrashed back and forth. Ecstasy on her face made her even more gorgeous than before. I’d never before taken such pleasure in making a female come, even without me climaxing. I could keep doing this forever just to keep her in this state of bliss.
Her hips slowed and I removed my hand to position myself between her long legs. I rubbed the head of my cock against her flushed slit. “Ready for me, baby?”
“Yes, so ready.” Nicolette kissed my face all over before locking her mouth to mine. Her little whine almost made me lose control again. “Kodiak, please.”
I gritted my teeth to keep from thrusting hard into her. Easing the tip of my erection into her first, I let it sit there for a few seconds before withdrawing and pushing a bit more into her. Inch by inch, panting with each breath.
She was so wonderfully tight. Her inner muscles squeezed me, and I growled into our kisses. Finally fully sheathed in her, I nipped at her lower lip. “How does that feel?”
Nicolette drew her nails over my shoulders and along my arms. “So good.” She wiggled against me with a moan. “So fucking good.”
My sac tightened with that sensual moan, and I couldn’t hold on any longer. I thrust hard into her, making us both grunt. I held onto her as I hammered into her, kissing so furiously that I sometimes forgot to breathe. Her tits crushed against my chest, my body looming over hers. The bed rattled and squeaked, but it was the sounds she made that ruled me.
“Fuck, yes.” Harder and faster, flesh slapping together.
My dick thickened as I neared climax. The knot ready to form. Her abdomen quivered before she screamed against my mouth with her orgasm. I didn’t let up. Not a bit.
The world was burning in the best of ways, and I bellowed when I exploded with cum. Our bodies locked together with my knot, making it impossible to do long, hard thrusts. Spurt after spurt of hot seed filled her.
Only after she went limp under me and my breathing wasn’t so ragged did I gently roll us so that I was on my back and she was on top. My knot would keep us latched for at least twenty or thirty minutes.
I kissed her head as she mewled, thoroughly exhausted. Her eyes closed and her breathing evened out. Nothing had ever felt more right than being like this with her.
She was mine. And fuck everyone else in the world who even thought of taking her away.
