Chapter 12 Shay #2
He does it again and again until I’m almost delirious. The slow pulls shift into a harsh drive each time. I need to come so badly, but I also don’t want this to end. Pressing his forehead to mine, his body continues to plunge in and out of me as tingles spread up from the base of my spine.
“All I can think about is slamming my knot into this perfect fucking pussy.”
On the next thrust, his knot teases my opening, torturing us both. Inhaling harshly, his pheromones and scent infiltrate every nerve ending I have. He’s making me float while also grounding me in the present, which shouldn’t be possible.
“Then why don’t you?” I rasp.
He stares down at me, pausing when he’s almost knot deep. “I’m worried my honesty might throw those walls of yours back up.”
My thumbs run along the stubble of his jaw. “No matter what, honesty is the one thing I’ll always expect from you.”
His eyes dart between mine, searching for something. Dropping another brief kiss on my lips, he slowly pulls out.
“The second I do this, I’m not sure I’ll be able to let you go. I’ve never had something like this. Something that immediately felt this…special.”
He says the word with his whole chest, and although those walls he mentioned immediately try to slam forward, I force them back.
I’ve been closed off for so long, refusing to open myself up, but with him overwhelming my senses, I can be honest and admit it was never like this with Miles.
There was never this mutual volley of emotion or insane level of mutual attraction.
It was always one-sided. I was never enough.
No matter how much I tried to shape myself into the type of Omega that he wanted by his side, I always fell short.
I sacrificed myself in the name of reaching his unobtainable goal, receiving nothing but his disappointment in return.
“There’s nothing special about me, Aug. I’m just an Omega. Nothing more, nothing less ”
“Wrong. You’re mine,” he growls. “Guess there’s only one way to prove it to you.”
He slams forward, his knot edging past the natural resistance of my body. My breath catches. With a growl, he settles deep inside me in a spot that’s been aching for someone like him for longer than I care to admit.
I detonate.
My body grips him as his knot continues to swell. He roars, his eyes closing before he forces them open to stare down at me. I can’t speak, can barely breathe. I’m sure my nails are digging into his skin, maybe even drawing blood, but it’s like my muscles won’t listen.
“Oh, firecracker,” he grunts. “I fucking told you so.”
His hips are grinding into me, sending shockwaves through my body each and every time.
“Aug, don’t stop. I’m gonna—”
I come again, a softer rush of pleasure that’s almost more powerful in its simplicity.
As soon as I open my eyes, he’s smiling down at me. “Believe me yet?”
A rough chuckle slips out. “You’re so cocky.”
“No, I’m confident. There’s a difference.”
Staring into his earnest gaze, I realize it’s only fair that I practice what I preach. I asked for honesty, after all.
“It wasn’t like this,” I whisper, both worried he’ll ask questions and anxious he won’t.
“With the Alpha-asshole who was too dumb to know what he had?”
His question catches me off guard. “You know?”
He shrugs, gently rolling us over onto our sides. “Nothing more than surface-level details. This is Darling.”
I sigh. “I should’ve guessed by all the Runaway Shays, but I had high hopes the details weren’t out yet.”
I’m resting on his massive bicep with my leg thrown over his hip while his other hand runs up and down my back. I feel safe and secure in his arms. One more thing that’s new and heartwarming.
“Whatever happened in the past, we’re here now.” He presses a kiss to my forehead. When he pulls back, his thoughts are flashing across his face. I’m just not well-versed enough to read them yet. “Give us a chance to be your future?”
Panic flares, and my scent goes sharp. I open my mouth, ready to put a little bit of distance between us again, but he kisses me, a purr rattling his chest. The effect is immediate. My mind settles, and the tension drains from my body.
“No bites until you’re ready, but you need to know where we stand.
We’re all practically at the finish line already, but you have some catching up to do.
We’ll give you as much time as you need, but the others, well, they’ll treat you with kid gloves and drag this out for years.
That’s not really my style, if you couldn’t tell. ”
My eyes dart between his, my mind a riot of words and thoughts and feelings.
“Aug…”
“Shhh. Just think about it. In the meantime, how about we spend what’s left of the afternoon right here, with me trying to convince you and you enjoying my efforts?” My pussy clenches at the suggestion, and he groans. “At least part of you is in agreement.”
He cuts off my laughter, rolling us over. His hips start pumping, and I forget about anything other than the Alpha who continues to blow my mind.
