BASIL
V iktor stayed close on my heels as I led the way to my bedroom.
It wasn’t as put together as the nursery, but there was a bed with an actual bed frame—thank you, Vivien—and relatively clean sheets.
I didn’t need anything else.
I’d been waiting all week for my Alpha to touch me or even just kiss me again, but he hadn’t.
He would hug me back but never gave even a hint of wanting more.
I’d begun to think maybe we’d had a miscommunication about what seeing what we could be together meant, but the way he constantly looked after me?
Bringing me food and rubbing my feet and moving furniture and then moving it back without complaint…
There was no way he’d do all that and not want me as his Omega.
I’d been almost positive.
As soon as I stepped over the threshold, strong arms slid around me, and huge hands smoothed over my belly, his erection pressing against me and answering once and for all whether he was attracted to me or not.
“Are you sure you’re ready for this?” Viktor asked, his voice low in my ear.
“I promise I’ll be gentle.”
There was something in his tone that made me pause and turn around in his hold.
I cupped the side of his face.
“I know you will be. You’re always gentle with me.”
His lips twisted, and I thought he would say something, but instead, he dove down and pressed his lips to mine.
He was so big compared to me, strong all over, that just kissing him was overwhelming, but in the best possible way.
He flicked his tongue inside my mouth as his hands smoothed over my back, then down to my ass, and back up, his fingers threading through my hair as he held my head in place so he could devour me.
I gripped at his T-shirt, moaning low in the back of my throat as I tried to keep up.
Somehow, without me even noticing, he had walked me backwards until we reached the end of the bed.
When our mouths finally separated, we were both breathing hard, my whole body flushed with heat.
I could feel how slick I was beginning to get, and I squirmed against him restlessly as he pressed open-mouthed kisses down the side of my throat, peeling aside the neckline of my shirt to bite softly at my collarbone.
“Viktor,” I gasped, arching against him and bumping him with my belly.
He laughed softly and pressed a kiss to the spot he had just bitten, gently patting over my distended stomach.
“We’re going to be limited for a while on our positions,” he said in such a conversational tone it took my brain a moment to understand what he was talking about.
I licked my lips, glancing down and finding his heated eyes looking up at me as he knelt on the ground.
There was a wicked smile on his face, and I was struck by the fact that I had ever found him scary-looking.
He wasn’t traditionally handsome, but to me, he was gorgeous in his own unique way, drawing me in every time he smiled at me or frowned in concern.
Every time he nodded along when I asked him to do something ridiculous as my nesting instincts grew out of control.
“But after Little Bean joins us,” Viktor said, his voice lower and even more gravelly than usual as he lifted the hem of my shirt and exposed my belly, “we’ll be able to explore a lot more.”
He pressed a few kisses against the thin skin, smiling with wonder when a little foot protruded just above him.
“Cover your ears, Little Bean,” he mock-whispered.
“You’re not going to want to hear this part.”
I laughed and covered my face.
It was such a silly thing for him to say, and yet it just made me adore him more.
There was no pretending I wasn’t weeks away from bursting forth a new life, so instead of awkwardly moving around it, he was embracing every part of my body.
Viktor climbed back to his feet and drew my shirt up over my head, tossing it aside, then clasping the sides of my face, kissing me once more, making me lose track of time and space.
I was consumed by him: his earthy, Alpha scent, his calloused fingers, and the heavenly heat exuding from his huge frame.
When his hands slid down the back of my sweats, one long finger slipping between my cheeks and encountering the wetness there, he groaned and ripped his mouth away.
“You’re already ready for me, aren’t you, my sweet Omega?”
I nodded furiously.
I felt like I’d been edged by him all week, watching his big body move around my apartment, feeling his strong hands on my tired feet and not getting him to pay attention to the spots on my body I needed him the most.
“I’ve been ready,” I assured him, snagging my waistband and pushing down the sweats.
They dropped to the floor, and I kicked them away, standing before my Alpha completely naked for the first time.
Viktor stepped back, his eyes running over my body appreciatively as he ripped off his own shirt, fumbling with the zipper on his jeans for a moment before he got it lowered.
I smiled at his eagerness, letting it soothe away the tiny bit of worry that had lingered in the back of my mind.
No matter how often I caught him staring at me or reminded myself that I was growing another person inside me and that was beautiful and amazing, there had been a tiny part of me that was still worried he wouldn’t like what he saw once my clothes came off.
He shucked his jeans and briefs, barely giving me a moment to take in the rigid lines of his abdomen and the tantalizing V that pointed down to the very large indicator of his arousal as he moved toward me.
I swallowed, clenching my ass involuntarily at the sight of his cock.
I’d only been with a handful of others, and he was by far the biggest.
I ached to be filled by him, even as it scared me just a little.
His hands back on me, he kissed all over my face and down my neck, lingering at that sensitive spot where I hoped his teeth would go soon, marking me as his.
I didn’t care that it was animalistic and archaic.
I wanted to be able to walk around with pride, knowing that every person I encountered would know without a doubt I belonged to someone.
To him .
That I was protected and cared for.
He brushed a thumb over one of my engorged nipples, and I hissed, pleasure zinging through me at the light touch.
He lifted his head and smirked down at me.
“Are you always that sensitive?”
I shook my head.
“No, definitely not.”
Grunting, he dipped back down, wasting no time and drawing my nipple into his mouth, teasing it with his lips and tongue, sucking gently and then a little harder as I keened and bowed backward.
His fingers tugged my other one, then pinched before petting gently again.
I was drenched with slick, the scent of my arousal filling the air around us.
“I can’t wait until these are full of milk,” he murmured against my chest, switching to the other side and teasing me all over again.
“I can’t wait to taste it.”
His words, the crassness of it, and the picture it painted in my mind had my knees weakening.
My big, strong Alpha swept me up into his arms before my body could even consider falling to the ground in a heap of aroused goo.
Laying me on the bed, he quickly joined me, grabbing my hip and pulling me up onto my side so we were face-to-face once more.
He kissed me for long moments, seemingly not in a hurry anymore.
His hand trailed from my sensitive chest, over my belly and hip, and onto my back, creeping slowly downward until he pushed a finger down the crease, parting my cheeks until he reached my hole and rubbed it gently with that one fingertip.
I threw my leg over his hip, encouraging him to do more, to go deeper, to get inside me in some way.
I whimpered in the back of my throat when he just kept kissing me and circling the slickened opening.
Just when I thought I was going to lose my mind, his hand disappeared, wedging between our bodies.
He cupped my small Omega dick.
I was a fraction of the size of him, but so sensitive, every square centimeter like a live wire.
Pleasure rolled through me as he carefully traced the veins and the ridges of my capped head.
When I couldn’t take any more, I ripped my mouth away from his and gasped into the quiet room.
“I need more.”
He groaned and buried his face in my throat for just a second, then started moving, helping me to get farther up on the bed and positioned onto my hands and knees.
He knelt behind me, cupping my ass with both hands and spreading my cheeks, completely exposing me to his gaze.
“Whatever my sweet Omega wants.”
I expected more teasing, a finger or two stretching me, even though I didn’t need it since I was so aroused.
But he must have been just as on edge as I was, because it was something a lot larger than a finger pushing at my opening.
I glanced over my shoulder, teeth sinking into my lower lip as I took in the sight of his huge body towering over me.
All his focus was on where he was carefully guiding his cock between my ass cheeks, pushing his hips forward until he popped past that first ring of muscle.
The feeling of that big plum-shaped head filling me was overwhelming.
All of my nerve endings lit up like a Christmas tree, and I fell onto my forearms, spreading my legs as far as I could, offering him all of me.
“So sexy,” he said, his voice barely more than a deep rumble as he kept pushing.
It seemed to take ages, my heart thudding and body tensing and relaxing over and over.
All I could do was lie there and pant and moan as what felt like a telephone pole was slowly driven into me.
He was enormous and all mine.
Once he was fully inside me, his groin pressed against my ass, he held still.
There was nothing but the sound of our heavy breathing in the room.
His Alpha scent, extra strong with his arousal, mixed with my own, seducing me further and triggering all my evolutionary Omega instincts.
My hole gushed with slick around his cock, dripping down the back of my thighs.
“Okay?” he asked, smoothing his hands over my hips and down the outside of my legs, soothing me, but I didn’t want to be soothed.
“No, not okay,” I said, glancing back at him as he froze.
“I need you to fuck me already, Viktor.”
The tension drained from his shoulders, a small smile creeping over his face.
“Whatever my sweet Omega wants,” he repeated, holding my eyes as he pulled partway out and then thrust back in.
“Oh!” I was so wet the sound it made was obscene, but I barely noticed.
It felt so good.
“More,” I begged, pressing my face into the bedding.
“Yes, my Omega,” he answered obediently, pulling out again and again, building up to a steady rhythm.
It was amazing.
Awe-inspiring.
Transcendent.
He filled me so well, grinding against spots I had never even known existed before and driving me out of my mind with pleasure.
I couldn’t stop the growing moans falling from my lips, interspersed with the occasional, “ Yes, more ,” which always got me a speed-up of his hips or an increase in how hard he moved until he was slamming into me, his fingers biting into my hips, and my new headboard banging against the wall with the force of his thrusts.
Liquid ecstasy was building inside me.
There was just one thing I needed to put me over the edge.
“Bite me, Alpha,” I gasped out, arching my neck.
“Make me yours. Bond with me.”
Viktor was so far gone his only response was an animalistic snarl that sent a shiver down my spine.
Then his body was covering mine, and his teeth were at the base of my neck.
“Please?” I moaned.
His teeth pierced through my skin.
My vision went white as I clamped down around him and rode the waves of my orgasm, crying out loudly.
Just as I was starting to come down, the base of his cock began to expand and triggered another smaller but more intense orgasm deep inside me.
A flood of heat filled me with a sudden spark, and I screamed, not sure how I could survive something that felt so good.
Viktor’s knot was like a grapefruit inside my ass, but it was still amazing.
He nuzzled at my new bonding bite, grunting as waves of seed spilled inside me.
“I’m going to breed this ass so often we’re going to end up with a dozen kids,” he said, the words a little slurred.
A shiver of spent pleasure climbed up my body and down my limbs, my legs beginning to shake with the effort it was taking to hold myself up after two mind-numbing orgasms.
“Yes, Alpha” was the only response I could give.
My eyes were already falling shut, my body turning lax as he carefully guided me over onto my side.
I groaned as his knot tugged at my hole.
I was oversensitive, but I knew I would miss the intimacy of it as soon as it started to deflate in a few minutes.
I wondered how soon he’d be able to go again…
Viktor smoothed a hand over my belly in big, sweeping circles, touching every inch he could reach.
His face was pressed against his bite mark as our breathing slowed.
The moment was…
perfect.
“Thank you for feeding me that day,” I said softly, the room beginning to darken with the setting sun outside.
“I will always feed you, my sweet Omega.”
