“What are you doing?”
I turn to face him.Now, we’re at eye level. “Come,” I beckon him closer.
He lifts a brow, lips twitching, but does as I ask. He steps closer to let me wrap my arms around his neck.
“I’ve never wanted Alphas,” I start.
His brows jump. “Ouch, Kitten, way to stab a man in the heart.”
“Let me finish,” I laugh. “Because of my past, my brain convinced me that Alphas were evil. It wasn’t until I met a few good ones around town that I started to see there are, in fact, decent Alphas out there. Still, the idea of being with an Alpha was something I never gave the time of day. I had no trust.Omegas or Betas only. Hell, I was happy if I ended up dying a virgin and being alone for the rest of my life. That was, until Emmett came into my life.”
“Sounds like a lonely life.”
I shrug. “I had my sister, this town, my job. But most of all, I had my freedom. I didn’t care about anything else. Then, enters Emmett. That man made me feel things I never dreamed of, and he started slowly chipping away at my walls. He gave me a whole new outlook on life, and because of that, he opened the doors for me to be more accepting of you and Aiden. I know in my heart that Emmett would never allow anyone to hurt me, so despite what my heart was telling me, my brain was saying something else. Until Emmett, my safe place, said that it’s okay to open my heart up. And you wanna know what?”
He wraps his arms around me, pulling me closer. “What?” His warm breath puffs against my lips.
“I’m glad I listened. You and Aiden are the very thing I never allowed myself to want. Alphas I never thought I’d ever have, despite being an Omega. I can’t deny our connection or that the universe put us together for a reason. I thought I’d need time to take things slow, but every time I’m around you both, the idea of taking my time makes me want to cry.”
“Don’t cry, Kitten.” He brushes his lips against mine, kicking my heart into overdrive.
“What I’m trying to say is, I want you and Aiden as my Alphas. I want us to become a pack. I don’t want to fight the connection. Let’s go with what feels right. I know you’re holding back because you don’t want to scare me, or pressure me, and I fucking adore you for that. And I know it must be hard because of who you are as a person. You're loud and passionate, silly and fun. And I noticed right away that you care,hard. So don’t hold back. Be who you are. Don’t stop to think if you’re being too much, because Sloane, you’re never too much. You're enough.Just enough. Perfect the way you are, and I can’t wait to see where this goes.”
“Fuck,” he rasps. His pupils are nearly black now, chest heaving with every breath. “Lexi.”
“Yes?” My heart pounds in my chest, warmth blooming between my thighs.
“Can I kiss you?” he growls.
“You never have to ask,” I breathe out the words I never thought I’d tell an Alpha.
He closes the distance between us, crashing his lips into mine.
I moan, both hands grasping at his hair. Sloane growls, his lips moving against mine like he can’t get enough of me.
Heat rises between us, my thighs growing slick. His touch and scent have me feeling intoxicated.
I feel like a greedy little Omega. My tongue swipes at the seam of his lips, demanding he part them for me. He does happily, my tongue plunging into his mouth, tangling with his.
We kiss, hot and heavy, until my head spins and I’m whimpering with desperation. Sloane pulls his lips away from mine, both of us panting heavily. “Take me home,” I plead, the need that kiss built inside me almost unbearable. I need this man so damn bad right now.
He licks his lips and nods. Helping me down, he takes my hand and starts tugging me in the direction of my house.
Damn not taking my car. Why did I choosetodayto enjoy walking?
Thankfully, we’re not too far from my place.
“What are you doing?” I ask as Sloane scoops me up into his arms when my house comes into view.
“If you’re going to be out of breath, I’d rather it be because you’re cumming hard on my tongue, not from running.”
Giggling, I let this massive man carry me the rest of the way home. My head is spinning, giddy feelings mixing with my arousal. He sets me down on my feet when we get to the front step.
My hand is in my pocket, grabbing for my keys and unlocking the door before I’m even steady on my feet. The moment the door is shut, I’m the one shoving Sloane against the door.
“Fuck,” he grunts, staring down at me with heated eyes. “You’re so fucking sexy.”
“I know. Now, shut up and kiss me,” I demand.
