Chapter Eight
TYDE
Nova smells incredible. Peonies and strawberries fill my senses, the perfect combination for me. Light and sweet, though I haven’t experienced either from her yet.
I have a feeling that’s more my fault than Nova’s though. I haven’t treated my omega very well, and I need to stop myself from blurting out the first thing that I think about.
For example, I’m unnaturally hard right now. I have alpha instincts like anyone else does, but my career has always been more important. I haven’t had sex since med school, actually. My sexual desire is pretty low, at least it was until Nova walked into my ER.
It’s actually why I thought Katee was her partner. I didn’t think there was a chance in hell that my scent match existed, or that there was any possibility that Nova would be single.
Instead, my lack of tact managed to fuck things up for me.
“Tyde,” she whispers, making me smile.
“I’m here,” I promise, kissing her neck. I have this overwhelming urge to bite her and growl at myself to focus.
I’m glad that Lars walked away, because I’d just be making a fool of myself yet again. It should bother me to have two unknown alphas in my house when I don’t even have a staff because I hate having to force myself to be normal.
Instead, I can walk around half naked if I want, I can eat takeout without anyone judging me, and I pay for people to clean and garden when I’m at the hospital.
My cock is digging into her side, and I try to shift my hips away, only to hear Nova whine unhappily.
“I’m sorry,” I whisper, wanting to apologize for so much more. “I’m trying not to be a pervert.”
I suppose she isn’t some random omega, but the timing of all of this is so off. We haven’t had any time together where my mouth wasn’t running away from me, and now she’s in my house.
My hand is on her thigh because I want to touch her skin, rubbing it slowly as my chest rumbles. I have no idea if I’m doing this right or not. For the first time in my life, I’m letting my instincts lead me.
Lifting my face, I gaze at Nova, awed by her long, natural lashes and gorgeous lips. They appear pouty without trying, and the crown of my cock begins to leak as I imagine what they would feel like wrapped around me.
As if she can feel my gaze, her eyes open slowly, her face turning slightly as they do.
“Did I die?” she rasps.
The very idea that she very well could have died makes my chest hurt and I shake my head.
“No,” I reply.
There are so many things I want to say, but I bite them back. I can’t fuck this up and get kicked out of her nest.
Just because it’s my house, doesn’t mean this isn’t hers now.
“You smell nice,” she says, smiling softly. It’s clear that she feels loopy. Part of this is her heat, and the rest is entirely my fault. I put a small anxiety reliever in her banana bag to keep her calm.
Nova’s seizure and nose bleed concern me, and I want to keep her from freaking out. Not only is she in a place she won’t recognize, but omegas during their heat are naturally more high strung.
“What do I smell like?” I ask, wanting to know as I prop myself up on my elbow.
“Raspberry chocolate,” she whimpers. “I really want to lick you…Take your shirt off for me?”
There’s nothing in the world that I’ll deny her. Maybe it’s a bad idea that I’m alone with Nova. Grabbing the back of my long sleeved shirt, I pull it over my head and off.
“Do you want it for your ne?—”
The word never finds its end as Nova’s fingers tangle in my red strands and pull my face to hers. I laid her over the blankets because her skin was so warm, and my hand slides up as I hover over her.
Nova lunges up to kiss me, not paying attention to the IV. My hand on her leg moves to her arm to stroke her skin so she won’t pull it out or hurt herself before I’m lost to her lips.
A part of me thought she’d be hesitant since we don’t know each other, but her kisses are wanton and insistent. She mewls into my mouth, her noises making me deepen the kiss. She even tastes sweet, and I groan as I suck on her tongue.
I’m trying to keep a leash on myself while still giving her what she wants. I don’t want to take advantage of her, even as my cock begs me to sink into her wet pussy.
I can smell her slick, my dick throbbing as she squeezes her thighs together.
My fingers cramp with the need to scoop some up and smear it across her lips so I can taste her pussy as I kiss her.
For someone who hasn’t been interested in sex in so long, my mind is filled with reels of how many different ways I can make her feel good.
“Tyde,” she gasps, pulling back. “Please. God, if you won’t knot me I’m going to lose my fucking mind.”
“Nova,” I groan. “We don’t even know each other. I don’t want you to be angry with me when your heat is over. Do you really want to fuck a stranger?”
“Would it piss you off if I said I have?” she asks.
Her fingers untangle from my hair to ghost down her body.
I can see that her eyes are unfocused and her pupils are blown wide with desire.
Nova is practically high from her heat, and my eyes move down to where her fingers are buried in her cunt, the sound of her slick as she pumps them in and out obscenely loud.
It takes me a second to catch up to her words, and I force myself to take a breath. I don’t think that she meant to make me jealous, but I am. I want to touch her more than I want my next breath, yet there have been others before me.
“Were they good to you?” I growl, my eyes narrowing as I watch her thumb smear slick over her clit. “Did they make you come and knot you, baby?”
“Yes,” she gasps, her eyes rolling as she masturbates.
I wonder if she watches porn, and want to give her something to fantasize about.
“Did they feed you their cocks, and did you suck on them like a good little omega?” I ask, loving the way she shudders.
“Yes,” she whimpers. “This shirt smells so good, but I’m hot, Tyde. Take it off. My arm also kind of hurts.”
“I’m sorry,” I say. “I’ll fix it if you keep playing with your pretty, wet pussy for me.”
“Okay,” she moans.
Getting onto my knees, I turn off the IV drip and grab a cotton ball. I would typically wrap her arm in a bandage for compression, but I know that her body will heal the entry wound of the cannula quickly.
I pull out the needle and dispose of it in a sharps box near her as I apply pressure, using a piece of tape to hold the cotton ball. I think I can keep her distracted for long enough until it heals.
“Are you going to come for me, beautiful?” I ask, laying back down. Her brow furrows as she continues to fuck herself with her fingers, and I wonder if I said the wrong thing.
“I’ve been trying for hours, but it’s not enough to take the edge off,” she complains, pulling her fingers out of her pussy.
Unable to hold back my instinct, I grab her hand and shove her fingers into my mouth to suck on them. Nova’s eyes grow large as she moans, writhing on the mattress.
“Tyde,” she wails. “Please help me.”
Fuck, I can’t say no. I’m a weak, weak alpha.
Pushing the shirt she’s wearing up and over her head, I cover her body with mine.
My fingers tangle in her multicolored hair, while my other hand explores her body.
Her breasts are round and large, her nipples so tight that they could cut glass.
My hand squeezes one roughly, my fingers pinching her tight nub.
“Yes,” she moans, her body bucking upward. “Everything feels like it’s going to shit. Give me something good to feel, Tyde.”
“No,” I growl. “You’re fucking perfect, Nova. I’ll give you everything.”
My mouth covers hers as I continue to torture her breasts. Nova likes her foreplay rough it seems, and I can feel the front of my pants getting wet with her slick. I bet the reason she can’t get off properly is because I’m hers.
Biology is something that you can’t get away from, and the universe keeps bringing her into my orbit. Biting down on her lip, her answering groan is raw and loud.
“More,” she begs.
“Yes,” I rasp.
My hand continues down her body, grabbing her luscious ass before hooking her leg behind my back. I’m still wearing most of my clothes, but I doubt that’ll last for long if she asks me to remove them.
My larger, thicker fingers push inside her pussy, and she begins to breathe faster as I rock them over her nerve endings.
“I want to fuck anyone else out of your mind,” I growl. “I want to ruin you for anyone else until my cock is the one you crave.”
“Yes,” she gasps, her hips pushing up as I add another finger. “This would be better if your cock was inside of me.”
“All things come to those who wait,” I promise, licking up her throat. Strawberries are my new favorite fruit, and I want to have it every day.
My thumb insistently presses and rubs over her clit, not bothering to edge her. I want to give her relief, and regardless of my words, I don’t want to make her wait. I don’t know how many hours passed while she was in heat alone and scared.
I’m trying to give her relief without giving her my knot, despite my teasing words. I just don’t think that’ll be possible with how warm she’s running. Nova is dangerously close to a medical emergency due to trying to ride her heat out alone.
“I can only imagine how tightly you’ll grip my cock,” I groan, kissing her. “Your pussy is already strangling my fingers, baby.”
“Does it…oh fuck, don’t stop, please!” I’m almost certain she was going to say something else, but since it doesn’t align with my current objective, I let it sleep.
I have her pussy stretched wide around my fingers, and her clit is needy and swollen.
“I want you to soak my fingers,” I growl. “Your scent needs to be so strong that I can smell you on them for days.”
Her cunt viciously tightens around my fingers, and my hips grind against her thigh with a mind of their own.
“Atta girl,” I rasp. “Give me your sweet slick, Nova. We both need it.”
Her head thrashes on the pillow as she comes for me, the walls of her pussy pulsing as her body shudders.
