Chapter 54 Wrapped Up in The Alpha
1930words
Panic corroded my mind when Alpha Jaxon told me I would be watched by an enforcer until the pack was clear of rogue attacks. I tried to keep my anxiety under wraps as I schemed how Sophia and I could escape the enforcer to meet Alpha Jaxon and Sophia's mother, the former Luna of Midnight Moon. I admittedly felt guilt pounding against my chest; I wanted to ask my mate to take me himself, but fear of him saying no made me reluctant.
I lay there in bed with nothing but Alpha Jaxon's blue t-shirt, cuddled closely on his chest. Pinpricks danced on my skin from being so close to my mate—my mate who had confessed that he loved me. I was certain he wasn't aware of what those three words meant to me—my wolf was ready to finish the mating right then. I felt whole for the first time in my life and wanted to scream from the top of the pack house that I too was in love with him, but I struggled to form the words; the pain of betrayal was still fresh. I wasn't mad at Alpha Jaxon; I was thankful that he was there to save my life, actually. Still, I was haunted by my own disappointment that I had been unconscious and would never experience my mate marking me now.
"I thought you had something to eat and went straight to bed? Why do you have a male scent on you, Adeline?" Alpha Jaxon questioned. I felt the pit at the bottom of my stomach. There was no way I could admit to Alpha Jaxon that Alpha Christian had trapped me in the hallway downstairs; it would surely cause a bloodbath between the packs. Alpha Christian would be gone by tomorrow night—I just needed to steer clear of him until then. I had scrubbed my entire body as hard as I could, desperate to cleanse Alpha Christian's scent off me. I could feel Jaxon staring at me with his intense honey-golden eyes and his eyebrow cocked in suspicion, but I refused to look at him, nervous that he would see the truth in my eyes. I wasn't convinced that he believed my story about possibly picking up Chef Mark's scent, but it was enough to stop his probing.
Alpha Jaxon ran his fingers through my hair, caressing each strand. His touch was intoxicating, slowly lulling me to sleep while his heartbeat sang a beautiful lullaby into my ears. I couldn't remember exactly when I had dozed off, but I had slept like I was on a magical cloud being blown away by a soothing, soft wind into complete bliss.
I was awakened by little pecks along my upper thighs, followed by gentle bites shuttling in between. I struggled to open my eyes, feeling wetness in my folds, desperate for it never to end. Glaring down between my legs, Alpha Jaxon's broad shoulders were impossible to miss. A small chuckle escaped him. "Good morning, little mate," he said, continuing to nip at my thighs. "Sorry I had to start breakfast without you." I gave him a small moan in return. "Good morning, Alpha," I said, struggling to get the words out.
The quick warm pecks gradually made their way closer to my core, causing my breathing to quicken. I fought the urge to scream at him to finally take me; the temptation was unbearable. He brushed his mouth against my pussy lips and whispered, "So wet for your Alpha already, aren't you, little mate?" I grabbed the bedsheets tightly and bucked my hips closer to his mouth.
"Answer me, Adeline," he said in a dominant, stern voice that caught me by surprise, fueling my desire for his tongue inside me. I panted furiously, "Yes, Alpha, p-please, Alpha." He took his time with his tongue, with one slow lick upward, slurping the juices within my clit.
"Please what, Adeline? Tell me what you want, Adeline," he demanded.
"Please just take me already. I want you to fuck me senseless," I gasped at what I had just admitted. He gently lifted his head from between my legs, his thumb fondling circles around my pearl. Alpha Jaxon fought back a smirk developing on the left side of his mouth.
"Soon I'll destroy this sweet and innocent little pussy of yours, little mate. I'll make sure you scream my name into the depths of the night. But for now, I just need another taste to start my day."
I stared at him, wide-eyed, like a deer in headlights. He returned his head between my legs, jerking my hips upward, my legs molded in his strong hands. His tongue flicked angrily inside my small hole as more wetness seeped from it, while his thumb attacked my clit urgently, rubbing faster and faster, making me feel as if I were hallucinating. I yelped out, unable to breathe as the need for release tingled throughout my body.
"Fuck, you're dangerous when you quiver for me," he said as his canines slowly elongated. I saw him fighting his wolf for control, his darkened eyes raging with lust. He gripped my pussy lips tightly together in one swift bite and pushed his finger deep inside me. The mixture of pleasure and pain shot through my body in sync. My legs were a shaking mess; I had lost control over them and could no longer hold in my whimpers.
"Come for me, baby girl," he whispered, his warm breath against my wetness. His tongue passionately ate my clit while he thrust another finger into my hole. My back arched at the roaring fire he had caused inside me, igniting a blaze. I felt the walls of my pussy clench hard against his fingers, a gush of come racing from within me.
Alpha Jaxon sat up, satisfied, and leaned over to kiss me, his lips gently pressing against mine. I could taste my come still on his lips. "I plan to start every morning like this."
He stood up and walked toward the washroom, his boxers hugging tightly around his groin. "Care to join me?"
I was still exhausted from my release, but I knew I needed to shower before we headed downstairs to the pack house dining hall for breakfast. Tearing off the blue t-shirt I was wearing, I flung it into the laundry basket and followed Alpha Jaxon into the washroom.
He turned on the shower and took off his boxers. My eyes bulged as his long, firm cock sprung out, tempting me once more. He smiled and stepped toward me, sucking on the mark he had left on my neck. With a low voice that shot bolts of electricity through me in longing, he said, "I can't wait to watch those stunning eyes bulge again when my cock is stuffed deep in your throat."
I felt my face heat up, a bright red blush spreading across it. This man was going to be my demise. I wouldn't admit it to him, but I was determined to feel his hardness in my mouth.
He stepped under the warm running water and held the glass door open, waiting for me to enter. The water felt so good, dripping against my skin. He lathered a white bottle of soap that smelled like jasmine all over my body, taking his time to massage it thoroughly onto my breasts.
My nipples stood hard for him as he gently pulled on them, causing me to jerk my head back against the white tile of the shower. His touch was electrifying as he lathered small circles of soap on my body, all the way down to my pulsing, swollen pussy.
Feeling bold, I returned the favor and grabbed the white bottle seductively, pouring a slither of soap onto my palms. I locked eyes with him and carefully rubbed his muscled biceps, enjoying the feeling of his body under my touch. I snaked down his chiseled abs, gently biting my bottom lip.
His eyes swirled with golden and darkened specks as I continued down and wrapped my hand around his length. He hardened instantly under my touch, and I proceeded to stroke up and down in slow motion.
"Don't tempt me, Adeline. You know I'll take you right here," he said huskily.
A loud banging came from the locked bedroom door. "Alpha Jaxon, it's almost time to meet the Alphas," Beta Don scolded from the other side.
"Fuck, Don, go away," he yelled. Taking a moment to recompose himself, he sighed and called out, "I'll meet you in my office in half an hour."
He took his time with me in the shower, clearly embracing every moment of us being alone. He turned the water off and leaned over.
"I love you," he said and kissed my forehead. My wolf howled with pride.
He wrapped a towel around my body, then one around his. "Need help drying off?" he asked sarcastically.
I shook my head at his lame attempt to get me naked yet again and walked into the walk-in closet. I slipped on a strappy v-neck red dress that ran down to my knee, with a small slit on my right thigh, and walked toward the mirror in the closet.
My eyes caught Alpha Jaxon as he entered, and he visibly ran his gaze along my body, not holding back that he was checking me out. He dropped his towel and easily picked me up like a baby, my legs wrapping around his torso. His honey eyes poured into mine with such fury, and he growled, "Mine."
I laughed at him and fought him to put me down. Finally releasing me, I returned to the mirror and braided my hair off to the side—satisfied that the pulsing purple love bite was fading.
Alpha Jaxon had put on fitted white jeans and a black dress shirt that hopelessly clung to his biceps. He folded up the cuffs of the shirt, and he looked incredibly handsome. No wonder so many she-wolves flaunted over the sight of him.
He snarled for a second. "Why are you covering your mark? I am your mate, Adeline," he scolded in a furious tone.
I noticed what I had done and felt the regret of hurting my mate pang in my heart. I had no intention of covering his mark, but the bright purple love bite was on top of it. I quickly unraveled the braid.
"I wasn't trying to cover it, Jaxon. I'm just too lazy right now to make myself more presentable," I said, letting down my long, wavy dark hair.
"You better not be," he taunted and walked out of the walk-in closet.
Feeling defeated, I shook my hair to add some volume to the roots and followed him into the bedroom.
I sat on his bed, gauging to see if he was truly upset with what I had done. I knew it must have looked like I was indeed trying to cover his mark. Shifters were very possessive over their marks on their mate's bodies; it was a sign that the shifter was mated and off-limits to other wolves.
I shuffled in my spot on the bed. "So, what are your plans for today? I don't want to miss you too much," I said playfully.
Alpha Jaxon put on his black watch and smiled at me.
"I have an Alpha's meeting at noon, but I'll be back by dinner. Meet me here. I'm hopeful we can finally celebrate that birthday of yours," he said with a glimmer of excitement in his eye.
