Chapter 10

Garrick

I should have known.

As the evening wore on, Noel’s scent had become even more irresistible. He smelled good when I first met him, but now it was like his scent went straight to my cock, and I wasn’t going to find relief until I was buried deep inside him. Provided that was what he wanted.

I would stop if he wanted me to. I would leave this cabin and hide out in the woods in my wolf form, keeping watch over the cabin to make sure he was safe, but it would be damn hard.

Based on the desire in his eyes, he wasn’t going to ask me to stop. He wasn’t going to ask me to leave. He wasn’t so far gone in his heat that he wasn’t making clear choices. He knew what he was doing. There was no fear coming from him, just desire, want, need. His skin glistened with a thin sheen of sweat, and the heat that came off him set me on fire.

I ripped off my shirt and pants. He let out a desperate whine.

“Fuck, you’re gorgeous, Garrick,” he said. His hands went to his cock and started stroking. His movements were slow as he caressed his cock. “I want you so badly.”

“That’s it, baby, touch yourself for me. But don’t come. Save that for when I’m inside you.”

“Yes, yes, alpha.”

He stroked slowly, his eyes never leaving me. His gaze roved up and down my body like a caress. I had the urge to rub my face over his length, marking him with my scent and me with his. I settled between his legs, keeping my movements slow so that he could see what I was doing at all times.

He jerked when my fingertips grazed his hole. Then he relaxed under my touch. I teased around the rim, letting his slick gather around my fingers. Meanwhile, my lips found his inner thigh, pressing kisses over the sensitive skin there. The taste of him lingered on my tongue. His grip on his cock tightened, his strokes faster, and I backed off.

“Not yet,” I said. “There will be plenty of time later for you to come in my mouth or on my face or wherever you want, but this first time – you’ll wait.”

He let out a long groan as he squeezed his cock. He stopped stroking. “You expect me not to come when you tell me I can come on your face?”

I chucked. “Liked that, did you?”

“I think I must still be dreaming.”

I couldn’t have him thinking this wasn’t real. He needed to know that I was all in on this.

My fingers left his hole. I grabbed the foil packet I’d thrown on the bed and sheathed my cock quickly. Noel’s hole was loose enough from his slick that I would be able to slide in without issue. I covered his body with mine and captured his lips. We kissed for a while, as I let the weight of me settle on him. My body absorbed the heat that he gave off until both of us were on fire. He opened for me, my cock filling him completely like his body was welcoming a long-lost friend.

Noel’s hands gripped at my back, leaving marks from his fingernails. My hips bucked, thrusting deeper into him. The scent of his heat surrounded me until there was nothing else in the world but this omega in my arms. We were all alone in the world in this cabin deep in the woods.

Noel’s cries of pleasure filled the air. He moaned when I slid out of him and let out a strangled cry of pleasure when I filled him again. His hips met mine thrust for thrust.

“Alpha! Fuck!” Noel might’ve been a quiet omega, but in the bedroom, he let his animal side out. I loved every minute of it.

It wasn’t long before his thick cock was spurting cum and coating our stomachs. The face he made while he came threw me over the edge, and with one last deep thrust into his body, I came too.

Then, to my surprise, the base of my cock began to swell.

Noel’s eyes widened. “Is that—-”

“My knot,” I said. I stilled as my growing cock pushed at the walls of his channel. The sensations rippled through me like tiny electric shocks.

Noel’s eyes rolled back, and his back arched. “Oh fuck, that feels so good.”

“Noel. You know what this means…”

He reached up and cupped my face. “You’re mine. My mate.”

“I am. All yours.”

I never expected to find my mate out in the middle of nowhere, but I wasn’t sad about it. This explained how drawn I was to him and why I couldn’t bear to let him leave. Now that I knew he was mine, I couldn’t wait to learn more about him. He would be with me always. He didn’t have to worry about where to go next because he would be going with me. He would be my Alpha Mate.

“Mine,” I growled. I buried my nose in his neck, and he tilted his head to give me better access. I nipped at the skin where his shoulder met his neck. His still-hard cock jerked against my belly. He moaned as he squirmed underneath me.

“Fuck, Garrick! Alpha!”

“Mhmm, I love to hear my name on your lips.” I nipped at the skin again, this time leaving a deeper mark.

“Only yours. From now until forever.”

Noel’s skin was getting warmer. His heat was settling in. Before I couldn’t contain myself any longer, we needed to talk.

Once my knot released enough for me to slip out of him, I did so carefully. I grabbed a towel from the bathroom and cleaned us up.

“Need you again,” Noel moaned.

“Soon. Listen, since we’re mates, I’m going to knot you again and again.”

He grinned. “I can’t wait.”

I loved this side of him. He was a minx when he was in heat. “Me too, mate. But the condoms I have aren’t going to work. They will break. We risk getting pregnant if I come inside you. I can do my best not to—”

“No. I want you inside me. I want your knot. Bare. Do you?” The last question was voiced in a tone with a vulnerable edge to it.

“I do. More than anything. But it’s all happening fast, I just want you to be sure.”

“I am. We’re mates. If we have a pup together… that would be amazing.”

“I agree, mate.”

“Then show me. With nothing between us this time.” Noel’s hand trailed down his body. He gripped his cock and resumed stroking.

“Anything you need, mate.”
