11. Riley
Seeing Claire on that stage would likely have been enough to knock me to my senses. But having the alphas behind me, turning me on and taunting me like it was their job, I just couldn’t help but rush the stage.
The fact that Victor thought he had a chance was laughable. That beta refused to grow up and move out of his mom’s house, then was going to try and take my omega on a date? I don’t fucking think so.
“Uh, Riley, I can walk,” Claire laughed. My answer was to pick up the pace as I headed right for my truck. She didn’t ask again until I’d buckled her in, then went around to my side.
“I’m an idiot.” She snorted out a laugh at my random proclamation.
“Gonna need you to be a bit more specific than that, Babe,” she mused. “If it was for the caveman display just then, don’t apologize, that was hot as fuck and about damn time.”
“For taking so long. You’d have never agreed to this auction if not for me being so hesitant,” I explained. “And it’s not for lack of interest. I’ve only been…” I trailed off but I knew I didn’t need to elaborate.
“Riley, you can’t stay in your head like this,” she said gently.
“I was worried I would disappoint you in some way, okay?” I admitted, swallowing the swagger for a moment. “I’ve never been with a woman before and you’re you. I want to give you everything you deserve, in and out of the bedroom.”
“Us wanting each other is enough. We’ll figure it out together, just like we have our whole lives,” she promised, the surety in her voice settling something inside me. “And I doubt you’ll have a single problem making me scream your name.”
My gaze shifted to hers and there was only heat and excitement. My hand twisted in hers as I drove us back to our place. At one point I glanced behind us to see our alphas following, making sure we got home.
“Apparently our pack is afraid I’m too sex crazed to drive safe,” I joked.
Claire spun around in her seat and laughed. The sound was so carefree and went straight to my chest, stirring things in me that were not only lusty, but deeper than that.
The moment I parked the truck I was hastily turning it off and climbing out, running around to get her door. I threw her over my shoulder as the alphas honked, both of us waving before heading inside. She rested her hands on my ass, smacking it playfully as I put an extra sway in my step for her.
Once inside I started to fall back into that mindset of not wanting to ruin things, but when she was upright and smirking up at me, I shoved it all back, remembering her words and trusting that what was between us was right.
Her lips were like heaven as I slanted mine over hers. We fit together perfectly and my hands trailed down her soft curves and wrapped around her body so I could hold us closer together.
We’d been pressed against each other before, but never like this. Every curve and inch of her melted into me as I held her tightly and ground her against my length. Her scent flared, sweet and creamy, and I couldn’t help sweeping my tongue against her bottom lip.
Claire let out a soft whimper as I deepened the kiss, my tongue teasing into her mouth the moment she’d parted those gorgeous lips to let me in. She met me with the same level of heat, the hunger making my already hard cock ache even more.
She was hesitant to take the next step, and frankly I didn’t blame her. My poor omega had waited long enough already, and I was going to spend the rest of my life making it up to her.
Her fingers pulled at the button on my jeans until they were free, then moving onto my shirt and forcing it over my head. Hungry eyes took in every inch of my muscled chest, and I loved the fact that she clenched her thighs together as she did.
It made me feel powerful and awestruck at the same time, that this woman, this omega, wanted me just as fiercely as I wanted her.
“I want to taste you, Claire, to learn every inch of you, then fuck you,” I said bluntly. She let out a nervous giggle but nodded.
That was all I needed.
Lunging forward I spun her around and undid the clasp on the back of her dress, pulling down the zipper and helping her out of it.
The lingerie she wore underneath was pure fucking sin. A mix of lace and satin, the deep blue against her milky skin displaying her like the finest jewel.
“Tell me I can take a picture of you in this and send it to the alphas. They’ll be feral,” I grinned mischievously, knowing this was a sight that would drive them wild as well. They had helped push us together, the least they deserved was a thank you.
I expected her to say no, but instead she nodded, biting her lip and peeking up from under her lashes as she posed for me.
“You like how crazy you drive us don’t you?” I said with a smirk.
“Consider it payback for how crazy you seem to drive me,” she said, her infectious confidence in the moment something I wanted to capture forever.
I snapped the picture and showed it to her before sending it along. The moment I heard it go through I tossed my phone aside. We’d read their response and laugh later. For now, I needed her. Us. Tangled together with no space between us.
“My bed,” I ordered her. She turned and walked that way, swaying her hips so her ass teased me with every fucking step. “You’re going to be the death of me, omega.”
“Payback is a bitch, beta,” she shot back at me.
My growl had her running down the hall and hopping on my bed. I didn’t hesitate to climb over her, kissing her again and breathing in that peaches and cream scent. It was all I needed to motivate me to climb my way back down her body, nipping at her creamy skin until I was able to hook my fingers in the lacy boy shorts and pull them down her legs and toss them aside.
On instinct, she let her legs drop open. It was my turn to be completely mesmerized. The potent scent alone would haunt my dreams for years. But the sight of her, slick glistening on her skin, had me moving forward like a moth to a flame.
“You’re gorgeous,” I praised, leaning down to place my lips against her sex like I’d always imagined.
The first taste of Claire was sweet and perfect. She tasted more amazing than I dreamed, the nights I’d stroked myself to completion imagining this very moment.
“Ri,” she said with a gasp, her back arching slightly as she reached down to touch my hair, guiding me where she wanted it the most.
The cries that fell from her lips were ecstasy and I found myself grinding into the bed with each taste, chasing the pleasure of the moment.
My fingers teased over her clit as I fucked her relentlessly with my tongue, desperate to get more of her taste and acting on pure instinct. It was addictive, providing the biggest high of my life. I’d happily spend the rest of my days here if she’d let me.
Her thighs clenched around me and I’d never been more fucking turned on in my life. She was never one to let her walls down like this, but she trusted me enough to do it.
“Do it, Claire Bear. Come for me,” I urged, needing to see her fall apart.
As she came, my name was on her lips. It was a plea for more, and that was something I could definitely give her.
Her legs shook as I moved away, sitting between her legs now so I could see her as I skimmed my fingertips over her skin. Goosebumps erupted in their wake and I reveled in the knowledge that I was going to be her undoing.
“Fuck me, Riley, please,” she begged. Instead of diving right where I wanted to be the most, I carefully released the clasp on her bra so her breasts were free, needing to worship every inch of her.
My hands kneaded them as I watched her lips fall open and eyes roll back. The look of pure bliss on her face was nearly enough to make me come and I hadn’t even fucked her yet.
The sounds she made as I sucked hard on her nipples was torture. The best form of it I could imagine. There was no rushing this tonight, I wanted to feel, taste, learn and tease every part of her I could before I gave in.
I shifted my weight so I was laying beside her, mouth still claiming her nipple while my hands retreated back to her needy pussy. Her hips rocked into me as I slid two fingers inside of her, pumping in and out as my thumb teased her clit.
“Are you sure you haven’t done this before,” she asked as she clenched tightly around my fingers. “Because you’re really fucking good at it.”
“I was saving it all for you,” I told her truthfully. “You’re the only woman for me.”
She fell apart for me twice more before I couldn’t take it. The sigh of relief as I lined myself up had her chuckling, but it turned into a low moan from both of us as I pushed forward until I was fully inside of her.
Nothing could prepare me for the experience. The heat in her eyes as she held mine, knowing this was our way forward, was all that held me to this earth. That and how tight she gripped me.
“You’re so hot,” I said with a groan. “So fucking wet. Your slick…”
Her body clenched around me, hot and perfect and I had to talk myself down from coming too soon.
“So good, Ri,” she said with a gasp. “More.”
Once I started moving, I couldn’t be slow or gentle, I needed her too bad. Every slam of my hips was forceful and I didn’t care that my bed creaked as I fucked her into the mattress.
“Need you so damn much,” I said with a groan. “Never enough. You feel so freaking good around my cock.”
“Please,” she begged, her blue eyes locking on mine as I lost myself in her again and again, savoring every detail of the moment between us.
Claire was gorgeous. Her teeth caught her lip as she gazed up at me, body writhing underneath me as I brought her to the edge but didn’t give into her demands.
“You’re beautiful, Claire. Perfect,” I praised her. A pleased smile was rewarded, with my control snapping. My fingers went to her hips, gripping hard as I slammed home twice more, then came. It was my turn to cry out her name as I filled her with my seed.
“Oh fuck, Ri, I’m–”
“That’s it,” I said, feeling her milk the last of my cum from me as she clenched around me, as I bent to rest my head against hers.
“Mine,” she growled, her hand gripping my neck and turning it to the side. “I want–”
“Do it,” I urged her, needing it just as much.
A flash of white hot pain tore through me, her teeth sinking like butter into the skin of my neck, but it was replaced with ecstasy a moment later, my whole body shuddering again as my omega claimed me as hers for all to see. It might not be the same as an alpha bond, but it was just as important to me.
“Claire.” Her name on my lips was my salvation and promise, that for the end of all my days, she would be by my side.
“Bite,” she whined, offering me her neck.
Not bothering to overthink her demand, I sank my teeth into her, feeling her body writhe beneath me once more before I pulled back, soothing the area with my tongue as we both came down from our high.
We were both covered in sweat by the time I pulled out and snuggled her into my side. My fingertips stroked over her arm as she let out a content sigh.
“That was even better than I dreamed, and I dreamed of you a lot. My toys could never compare,” she practically slurred before her breathing evened out. It had been a long night, and I felt fairly proud that I could satisfy her enough that sleep took her over.
Being careful not to wake her I finally pulled away so I could clean us up and tuck the covers around us. Then I was right where I belonged, back in my omega’s arms with her claiming bite proudly on my neck.
