27. Hunter
Hunter
“Aphone?” Cherry asks as she takes the device from me and flips it over like she doesn’t know what to do with it. She was held captive since she was fourteen, so there’s a good chance she hasn’t used one before.
“So you can call or message us whenever you want.”
She looks up at me from where she’s perched in my lap as she asks, “But can’t I just use the bond to talk to you?”
“Sure, at short distances. But if you’re at home, and I’m in town, the bond doesn’t reach that far.”
“Huh,” she says, glancing back down at the phone. “I hadn’t really considered there was a limitation on the bonds’ reach before.”
“You’ll still be able to feel anyone you’ve bonded with anywhere in the world, though,” I reassure her.
Her cheeks start to turn a little pink, and she bites her lip as she looks up at me, leaning into my chest. “You know I want to seal our bond, too, right?”
I smile down at her adorableness. She’s so fucking cute it hurts sometimes. I give her a small squeeze as I tell her, “I know, baby girl. We’ll get our chance soon.”
Her eyes shift back to the phone as she asks, “Not now?”
I groan, hugging her tightly and kissing the top of her head.
“As much as I would love to throw you down on this couch, fill you with my knot, and bite you, I want to give you a little more time to recover from sealing your bonds with Maddox and Bain. We don’t know what the power dynamic is like for an omega. ”
Her cheeks grow even redder and she nods. “Okay.”
I chuckle as I slowly lick my lower lip, her eyes tracking the movement as her smoky, cherry vanilla scent grows stronger. “Besides, I think Chase should be there. The two of us want to make you ours together.”
“You love your brother, don’t you?” she asks as her little hand reaches up to caress my cheek. I press my face into her touch as I nod.
“Yeah. Chase and I have been through a lot together. He stood up and protected me more times than I can remember.”
“That never bothered you?” she asks curiously.
“No. I can fight if I need to. I’m definitely not a stranger to it. But Chase… he enjoys it. It gives him a sense of purpose.”
“Fighting?”
“No, protecting. Even from a young age, I could see how important protecting me was to him. Maybe because of the way each of our parents died, or because he was trying to shield me from the backlash of their failures, I’m not sure. Either way, I could see he needed it. So I let him.”
I shrug as I look at her. The way she stares at me, her eyes filled with what I hope is love and adoration, just solidifies what I already know about her. That’s she’s kind and caring and—
“You, Hunter Timberland, are amazing,” she says, cutting off my thoughts as she lifts her head, her lips reaching for mine as her eyes slide shut.
I wrap my arms tightly around her as I close the distance, kissing those gorgeous, pouty lips.
She tosses her phone to the floor and moans as I deepen it, sliding my tongue in and reminding her just how amazing I can make her feel.
An image flashes in my head of using my tongue to bring pleasure somewhere else, and suddenly I'm wondering if anyone has done that yet.
My hand slides to her hip, squeezing it before moving down her thigh and up the skirt of the light blue dress she chose to wear today.
It’s just as perfect on her as the green one that she wore yesterday.
I fucking love her in dresses, and realizing the easy access they grant, I’m loving them even more.
I’m gonna buy her a dozen more, hoping she wears them every day, giving me little peeks of her glorious ass and easy access to the goods.
My thumb grazes the edge of her panties, and she gasps, letting me deepen the kiss even more. Her legs part and I groan, loving the access she’s willingly giving to me. She might not be ready for another knot, but that doesn’t mean I can’t bring her pleasure.
I run my thumb down her slit, over her panties, and feel the dampness through them. “Fuck, baby. You’re drenched already.”
“That’s your fault,” she whispers as her hips buck, trying to find more contact.
I chuckle as I start to kiss down her neck, my thumb finding her clit and rubbing soft circles. “My fault, huh?”
“Yes!” she gasps, her hands clinging to me tightly. “You’re so Goddess-damned perfect, all I have to do is look at you and I’m soaked.”
My hand freezes as I pull back to look at her. “Perfect?”
She nods as her hips buck, trying to get me to keep moving, but I’m still in shock from her words. “Nobody’s ever called me perfect before,” I admit.
Her eyes soften as she cups my face and whispers, “Well, they’re fools. But I’m kinda glad. If another woman called you perfect before I might have to hunt her down and rip out her tongue.”
I choke on my laughter, not expecting such vicious words from my sweet little mate.
Smiling at her, I kiss her gently before pulling back as I admit, “No maiming necessary. There’s never been anyone else.”
“You never had a girlfriend you cared about before?” she asks with a tilt of her head.
I lick my lips before clarifying. “There has never been another girl. Period.”
A small frown furrows her brow. “But you’ve kissed—”
“No.” I shake my head. “You’re my first everything, Cherry.” Her eyes widen as she stares at me in shock. “Does that bother you?” I ask nervously.
“Bother me?” She looks at me now like I’m insane. “Of course not. I’m just a little shocked. I mean, you’re…” she trails off as her eyes trail down my body. “Hot. How is that even possible?”
“I was saving myself for my mate,” I tell her honestly, feeling a little embarrassed that I’m a twenty-eight-year-old virgin. But by the look of wonder on her face, I know all the nights I spent alone, touching myself in the shower were worth it.
Suddenly, she throws her arms around my neck, her mouth right by my ear as she whispers, “I love you, Hunter.”
I inhale sharply, not expecting her to say those words as I hug her back.
It takes me all of two seconds to regain my composure before I pull back and cup her face.
“And I love you, Cherry Rosewood.” I press my lips to hers in a firm but brief kiss.
Then I pull back again as I tell her, “Let me show you how much.”
Quickly, I shuffle us around, lying her on her back in the middle of the couch as I kneel between her legs. She looks at me in curious surprise as I let my hands slide up the outside of her legs, pushing her dress up as I go until her matching blue thong is revealed to me.
I slip my fingers in the edges and slowly slide it down, revealing her wet core to me. Once they are free from her legs, I toss her panties aside and lower myself to my stomach, watching as her eyes widen in surprise.
“W-what are you doing?”
“Do you trust me?” I ask, lifting my chin to look at her.
She nods. “Of course.”
“Then lie back, relax, and let me take care of you.”
She swallows nervously before nodding and dropping her head back to the couch.
My eyes move to her glistening cunt. Her folds are literally drenched with the proof of her arousal.
All for me. Leaning down, I lick right up her center, tasting as much of her as I can.
She cries out and starts to squirm, but my hands clasp her upper thighs, holding them in place as I continue to lick her with long, hard strokes.
I moan, loving the taste of her arousal on my tongue.
Once I’ve cleaned most of it off her, I place my tongue against her entrance and use my thumb to rub her clit.
I’m rewarded instantly as more of her essence starts to leak out right onto my tongue.
I lap it up like a starved wolf until my need pushes me to thrust my tongue inside her.
“Hunter!” she cries, her hands coming up to fist in my hair, holding me against her as I pleasure her with my mouth.
“Oh, Goddess!” she groans, spurring me on.
I move my mouth higher, replacing my thumb on her clit and sucking hard.
She cries out again, and I press two fingers to her entrance, desperate to feel her core tighten around me as she comes.
Slowly, I push them into her, grunting at how tight she still is. “Hunter!”
“You like this, baby?” I ask without fully removing my mouth from her clit. My fingers start to pump in and out of her as my mouth moves with the same rhythm.
“Yes! Oh, Goddess, Hunter. Please!” she begs, her head rolling back and forth as she clings to my head.
“You want to come?” Her begging and arousal only make me harder, but this is about her, not me.
“Please!” she begs, and I grin before picking up the pace. I suck her entire clit into my mouth as my hand moves fast, thrusting my fingers into her as she starts to clench around them.
“That’s it,” I whisper around her. “Come for me, baby. Let me feel you.”
She cries out as her core clenches tightly, her orgasm ripping through her as her body shakes beneath me.
I keep going, determined to extend it as long as I can.
I only let up when a whimper leaves her lips and she tugs at my hair.
I pull back before giving her one last lick.
Then I flip her skirt back down and crawl up her body until I’m hovering over her.
She pants heavily, staring at me with wide eyes. “What… What is that called?” she asks, her eyes blown wide.
I grin, kissing her, letting her taste her own arousal on my tongue before I pull back and explain, “It has a few names. Going down on you, oral sex, eating you out.” My eyes roam her face, and I can’t help but ask. “You liked it?”
She nods eagerly. “Very much.”
“I’m glad,” I say before kissing her again, then rearranging us so I’m lying on my back with her on top, hugging her tightly.
“Hunter?” she whispers after a minute of silence.
“Yeah, baby?”
“What about you? Don’t you want to… You know?”
“Next time,” I tell her, kissing her temple. “This time was all about you.”
“I don’t mind,” she presses. “I like it when you… you know… come.”
I hug her tighter, unable to believe how lucky I am to have a mate as sweet as her.
“I know, baby. And trust me, once our bond is sealed, I won’t be able to hold back.
But right now, I’m afraid if you touch me, or if I touch myself in front of you, I’ll end up shoving my cock inside your sweet little pussy. ”
Her cheeks heat and she ducks her head under my chin, making me grin.
“Hunter, you say the sweetest things.”
