Chapter 15
Chapter Fifteen
The stubble on Caleb’s jaw tickles my finger as I trail it down his face, keeping my touch light.
It’s hard to believe he’s here. I thought the chapters of my life with him were over; that I was destined to obsess from afar as he found another mate. Then the most magical thing happened, and Fate finally saw fit to unveil our connection.
He’s mine.
Or he will be. When he is ready.
There are things we need to work through and talk about. We aren’t in the same place now as we were when we presented. I have other mates and a flourishing career, and he’s just left his band.
A finger taps against my nose, pulling me from the swell of anxiety budding in my mind.
Caleb’s steel-blue eyes are open and pinned on me.
“Good morning, bunny,” he rasps, thumb brushing against my stomach where my sleep shirt is pushed up.
I shudder from the combination of his deep, sexy voice and his touch.
“Good morning,” I whisper back, hand still hovering by his face. He leans into my palm, smiling softly at me. “You’re here.”
“I am.”
I want to ask how long he’s going to stay, but I’m terrified the answer won’t be forever, so I keep my mouth shut and just enjoy having him close. His eyes flicker between mine, concern written into the grooves of his furrowed brow. “How did you sleep?”
“Amazing,” I admit, pressing myself closer to him. He’s so warm; his body radiating heat to stop the chilly morning air from reaching me. And he smells delectable. Sweet, warm, and fresh.
I want to lick every inch of him.
Map all his new tattoos with my tongue.
His ringtone slices through the lust rolling through my body. He shifts over to grab it from the bedside table, giving me an open view of his abs and the deep V leading beneath his shorts. My thighs clench, mouth watering as I bite back a needy whimper.
“What?” he sits up suddenly, his tone frustrated. “Shit, alright. I’ll be there soon.”
Panic flutters through my heart when he hangs up and turns to me with an apology in his eyes. “A main pipe burst and flooded my apartment. I have to go check my stuff and help the others grab their things.”
Well, dang, I certainly understand his frustration and why he has to leave. “Can we help?”
His head shakes, and I deflate, teeth digging into my cheek to stop the tears I feel building along my lashes. One blink and Caleb is right there, millimeters away from my face as his hands cup my cheeks.
“I appreciate the offer, bunny, but it’s going to be messy enough with the four of us going in and out, let alone adding you and your other mates.”
“Okay. Are you…” I trail off, swallowing the question and searching his face instead.
“Moving in much sooner than anticipated?” My breath hitches, heart pounding as hope grows like sunlight falling across my skin. “I’ll be back this evening,” he promises. His lips brush against mine, soft as butterfly wings, and then he’s gone, sliding off the bed and throwing on his shirt.
Pausing at the door, his eyes roam over my body, heat filling them before he clears his throat. “Can you let Quentin know about this change of plans? He mentioned something about redecorating, but I don’t care how the room is decorated. As long as living in it means I get to wake up next to you.”
Warmth fills me. I want that so badly.
Sometime after he leaves, the door creaks open. Peeking at the end of the bed, I find Sterling leaning in the doorframe. “Good morning, precious.”
“Morning, Alpha.”
“Caleb left?” He crosses the room and sits beside me, palm finding my knee and rubbing up my thigh. I melt beneath his touch, mumbling out an explanation. “Ah, that sucks for his bandmates.”
“Mhmm.” Climbing to my knees, I crawl over and straddle his legs. “But that means he’s going to stay here instead. How do you feel about that? I know you said you were okay with this, but I’ll understand if you’re struggling.”
Sterling’s hands grip my hips, rubbing my pussy against his hardening cock. Lips feather over my jaw, and his teeth nip at the lobe of my ear. “I have no problem adding your childhood lover to our pack, Omega. Bellamy is going to nut when you tell him.”
Gasping, I pull back and stare at him with wide eyes. “He-”
“Is attracted to Caleb, yes.”
His hands grip my waist, pulling me back against his chest. The movement grinds my core against his length, and we both groan.
“For now, his focus is on reuniting the two of you. Only after your relationship is stable will he consider something more. Maybe. You know how Bee is when he wants something.”
Giggling, I wind my arms around his neck and move against him, our lips brushing in not-quite-kisses. “I don’t know if Caleb will share Bellamy’s interest.”
Sly nods, already having guesses as much. I know my mates won’t pressure Caleb into anything, but I also secretly hope he is into them too. He deserves the love they offer just as much as I do.
Letting my head fall back, I get lost in the pleasure building along my spine. Part of me wants to pull Sly’s pants down and ride him, but I’m enjoying this too much.
“That’s it, precious, take what you need from me. Grind your soaked little pussy against my cock and cover me in your release.”
One hand drops to my ass, helping me push against him harder. The other travels up to cup my breast beneath my sleep shirt. Fingers pinch and tug at my nipple, adding a dizzying hint of pain to my growing pleasure.
More. I need more. I want all of them. To be so full of their cocks and their cum that it will leak out of me for days.
“I’m going to come, baby,” Sly moans, lips pressing against my throat, tongue laving against my bond marks. When he bites down, I catapult over the edge, limbs locking around him as I scream his name
“Fuck, yeah, that’s it. I’m right there. I’m-” The groan that leaves his lips is so fucking sexy, I jerk against him as another smaller release pushes slick from my core onto his pants.
He lifts me into his arms and carries me to my bathroom, lips meeting mine in a heated, love-filled kiss. I yelp when my ass hits the cold countertop, swatting at his arm when he laughs.
“Don’t worry, I’ll warm you up in the shower.”
Watching him slowly strip his clothes off has me clenching my thighs together. He’s magnificent. All lean muscle and dark skin. His cock is heavy, already hard again as it juts against his stomach. I’m one lucky Omega, getting to worship this sinfully delicious Alpha.
“Arms up,” he commands before pulling my shirt off and dropping it into the hamper. He tosses my underwear before untying my bonnet and setting it behind me. He smiles down at me as I help untie his, swapping it out for a waterproof cap.
“Let’s get you cleaned up.”
The water is warm as he dips us beneath it, my back pressed to his chest. I nearly fall back asleep as he washes my body. It feels so good.
When he’s finished, he spins me around, letting the suds rinse off, and I take the scrubber from his hand and take my time washing him. It’s sensual and arousing, a peaceful moment for just the two of us.
As I wrap my hand around his length, pumping him slowly from base to tip, he grips my hair and slams his mouth to mine.
We’re a flurry of limbs as he hoists me into his arms and pushes me against the shower wall, sliding between my folds and coating himself in my slick.
I dig my heels into his ass, pulling him closer.
I need to feel him. To have his thick cock stretching my walls and his knot locking his cum inside me.
“Alpha,” I whine when he continues to thrust against me.
Chuckling against my ear, he uses one hand to hold me up and the other drops to shift his tip to rest against my entrance. “I love you, precious Omega.”
One hard thrust and he fills me. I keen, head smacking against the shower wall as he sets a furious pace, pounding into me.
It’s deliriously delicious. A magnificent blend of too much and not enough as my sensitive walls clench around him.
“Look at you,” he groans, forehead pressed to mine so he can watch his length disappear inside me. “The way you stretch around my cock. Fuck, you look obscene like this. I can’t wait to double stuff you. Fit both Onyx and me deep inside you. Can you take both our knots tonight?”
“Yes,” I chant, rocking against him as much as I can.
I’m so close.
Reaching between us, I rub my clit, matching his hurried pace and pushing myself over the edge. He wraps his arms around my chest, banding me against him as he steps away from the wall and lets gravity pull me down over his knot. He shouts, drowning out my moan as he swells, locking us together.
I’m cum-drunk, eyes barely able to stay open as he shuts the water off and carries me to the bedroom, each step shifting me and sending bursts of pleasure up my spine.
“Get some sleep, baby,” he whispers as his knot deflates. I want to drag him back to my side, but I’m too tired to move.
I rouse a little when he wipes me with a warm cloth, and again when the blow dryer kicks on in the bathroom, but I’m fast asleep before he can rejoin me.
“We’re taking you out tonight,” Onyx tells me as I sweep into the dining room, my stomach rumbling. I slept too much this morning. Now I’m starving.
I press a quick kiss to his lips on my way to the fridge. “The whole pack?” I ask, grabbing a container of leftover pasta and putting it in the microwave to reheat.
“Me, you, and Sly,” he tells me. “The rest of your mates have plans of their own.”
My teeth dig into my lip, worrying the flesh. If we’re all gone, Caleb will spend his first night here alone.
“Don’t worry, bubbles, Emmett made sure to include your newest Alpha.”
Appreciation floods down my bond with Em, making sure he feels how grateful I am for his thoughtfulness.
“Sounds perfect then.”
I grab my food, and one of his arms opens so I can slide beneath it and claim the chair next to him.
Butterflies stir to life in my stomach each time I think about this being our permanent home. I love it here. There’s just something about this magical estate that settles my inner Omega.
