He understood the hell I’ve been through in a way that most couldn’t. In a way that I suspected the others couldn’t, either.
Leon teased the head of his cock through my slick, circling my clit slowly with the blunt head just to drive me wild. My hips bucked against him, demanding he push into my core, but he once again reminded me with actions that it was him in charge right now.
Soft whimpers fell from my lips, turning into a gasp as he finally slid into my pussy. It wasn’t as gentle as I expected. He filled me in one quick movement until our bodies were joined together.
He felt like home. Like mine.
Our scents flooded the room, my perfume rising as much as his, mixing together into a sweet and tart mix that had my mouth watering.
He leaned over me as he fucked me slowly, our lips teasing against each other, his hands bracketed on each side of my body as my nails raked down his back.
I arched into my beta, my hips snapping up, forcing him to move faster.
“You want it harder, omega?” he questioned, his lips twisting into an adorable smirk.
“Yes,” I demanded. “I want all of you, Leon. I want to feel this later and let it ground me while I deal with everything life is going to throw at me tonight.”
“My pleasure,” he promised. He lifted my hips before he started to move faster, slamming into me furiously. He twistedhis hips slightly each time, making sure to fuck me as deep as possible.
My cries were loud and unfiltered as he gave me everything I asked for and more.
A part of me knew that Nikolai was probably getting a front row seat to everything, but I didn’t care. Let him know that this beta was mine and that wouldn’t change. That even though I’d let him rut me, I needed more than just a barking alpha. I needed intimacy and to know he cared about me, not just my past.
Leon continued to fuck me into the mattress, his fingers urging me to come for him.
My body obeyed like it had every time, my orgasm shattering through me once again, body shuddering as he came with me. His cum filled me, a deep, primal satisfaction echoing through me.
“Leon. Bite me,” I demanded, needing to feel him, too. My beta did as I asked, his teeth sinking into my shoulder. The bond that was already forming snapped fully into place as my orgasm reached its peak.
He was officially mine.
Leon pulled away, licking it gently before tilting his head, baring his own neck. My omega moved before I could decide where to mark him, sinking her teeth into the beta, claiming him as our own.
This was our choice. A decision we made together as we found peace in each other. It was perfect.
Leon pulled out of me, grabbing the towel that he’d brought in cleaning me up quickly before pulling a blanket over us
His warm body curled around mine holding me to his chest and I felt more whole than I had in years.
Chapter
Twenty-Three
Aries
Mountain View Lodge was a new restaurant that opened up in town. It definitely fit the whole mountain theme with its dark wood and rustic decor.
Leon, Nikolai, Luca, Ronan, and I were all seated around a table in the corner. There were low walls and plants on either side of us, giving us some semblance of privacy.
I didn’t miss that Ronan had bribed the waiter to give us somewhere like this, and honestly, I appreciated it right now. This wasn’t the kind of conversation that I wanted spread around town.
It always felt a little like all eyes were on me when I walked through Widow’s Peak. Now that they were here and things were shifting, it was even more intense.
Our waiter walked up, giving us all a bright smile as he dropped some straws onto the table, dividing them up before looking at us.
“Hello, I’m Jensen, and I’ll be your waiter tonight. Can I get you started with some drinks, appetizers, or cocktails?” he offered, rattling off a few specials.
“Champagne for me,” I said, glancing at the appetizer menu. “And we’ll do the dip sampler.” Having something in front of us to nibble on was an absolute necessity.
