Chapter Six
Drew
I fainted…
I’ve got a mate…
He’s huge…
Those muscles…
Each thought stopped before I could finish them as he carried me like I was precious into a gorgeous, big house. Pretty fretwork in white graced the porch where a seat hung. The house was not in the least bit shabby like one I’d just left. Heck no, this was well tended to, if I ignored the messy clutter I could see when he placed me very carefully on a massive couch. It had the most comfortable cushions which could encourage a llama to lie down and snuggle on the wide chest…
You want to snuggle… with me? The huge stalk blushed so brightly I was sure that outside, he would light up the neighborhood, if there was one. I’d missed most of the drive while my brain remained on the fritz. I’d taken one look, one sniff to know—what—who he was to me.
My fingers curled into a fist to resist reaching out to find out, while my brain attempted to play catch up and something else crossed my mind. His smell. “You’ve been in our garden,” I exclaimed in a far too screechy voice, getting a very sheepish nod. “Were you…” Oh gods, he’d seen me playing with my cock .
He nodded again at my unspoken question, and it was my turn to feel the heat grace my cheeks. Each time I’d been in the garden ran through my mind, right until the recent encounter with the… leaves .
Leaves had touched me.
His leaves had touched me.
I’d come all over him.
We’re… my eyes widened, and it dawned on me why I’d felt so weird. “I… we’re mates, aren’t we?” It was the only thing that made sense as I craned my head back to keep my gaze locked with his when I felt his insecurity.
I didn’t mean to. Oh, he’s going to hate me. I knew I shouldn’t have stalked him.
It registered in that moment he might be an alpha, but there wasn’t anything about his behavior or his thoughts that said he was an ‘in charge’ type of rhubarb.
Unsure what to make of these new circumstances, my gaze wandered down his body. His chest was wide, and the shirt he wore didn’t hide any of the manly, muscular body beneath. His hips were surprisingly lean, despite having thick thighs encased in denim that felt like they went on for miles. It was the rather enormous bulge in the front of his jeans that made my ass slick at how it would feel stretching me wide open. Next to him I was tiny, and when fright wasn’t what immediately came to mind at how that would feel inside me, my lips tugged into a delightful smile.
The stalk, although a mountain of a man, actually took a step back.
My cock went from interested to rock hard in a split second. I glanced about the messy room as I stood up, barely coming up to the middle of his chest. The tenting of my sweats meant he could see exactly how interested I was in him.
His scent thickened the air, and it was all arousal. I’d lived in a house with other rhubarb, and I’d smelled something similar, just not as fruity as this stalk. “What’s your name?”
“Goliath,” he mumbled, back to blushing.
I offered him my hand, trying hard not to overthink that I’d come all over his leaves and I hadn’t known his name. “How long have you been…” I tilted my head to get a better look at his face. “Stalking me?”
His Adam’s apple bobbed repeatedly, then he licked at his lips, the enormous hands at his sides clenching. He’s got too many clothes on.
Have I now? I answered, finding the situation amusing and arousing. I ignored the fact he hadn’t taken my offered hand.
His wide chest shuddered as I reached for the hem of my T-shirt, then I had another thought at how I liked to be in charge. “Take them off me then.”
Ohhhh yes.
I folded my lips together to stop the grin from appearing at his response.
He came forward hesitantly, looked me up and down, then got on his knees.
His head reached my shoulders, and I giggled. “You’re really big…” I shivered in excitement. “All over.”
He hesitated, looking at his enormous hands, uncertainty once more coming from him. “I… I-I…”
Nervousness seemed to affect his speaking, except when he was doing it in his head. If it works to talk to me this way, why don’t you try that?
Okay… His fingers brushed against my skin, and warmth spread up my torso. He groaned all inside my head, coming closer to me, and he tucked his fingers under the hem of my T-shirt and eased it up my body. Shivery delight ran through me as I held his gaze until he tugged it over my head, being ever so careful. When our eyes clashed together again, all I wanted was for him to kiss me. He wanted it too, but he would never take without being told he could. My heart did a big somersault and landed right at the big stalk’s feet.
He was perfect.
I inched closer, bent my knees a little and cupped his cheeks. The bristles were soft against my palms. “I’m gonna kiss you and do whatever I want.”
Please.
Heck yeah. I didn’t think about the fact I was an omega or that he was an alpha, just that Fate had given me my wonderful stalk. I took a second to watch how his eyelids dipped, and his nostrils flared as I slowly came forward to press my lips to his.
Full and fleshy, they tasted like the sweetest fruit. His lips trembled as I traced my tongue over the seam, encouraging him to part them. When he did, I delved right in, swallowing his shuddery moan. He didn’t move, remaining as he was for me to plunder his mouth.
My tented cock pressed against the wall of solid muscle as I came closer, the desire building inside me. You need to get naked. I wanna rub my body against yours.
