Chapter 10

Danon

A n omega in heat. I'd never mated one. During a rut or outside a rut, it had always been alphas. I had known very few omegas in my life, which made sense. They were often guarded. Most that I'd met were already claimed. Like Sage.

Akai was my first opportunity to see the beauty firsthand. The heat. The rampant desire built up to meet my own burgeoning rut.

I tried to slow my breathing. But as I ran my hands up his thighs, his legs spread, and I saw that wet pink hole opening. The heat called him to mate. His body waited to suck me in.

I nearly gasped. I held back, not wanting to alarm him with how intensely I desired him.

I brushed my palms over his full, tight balls and hard cock.

He moaned aloud, a cry that spurred me on.

"I'm going to help you stretch a bit."

"Yes, yes. You don't need to tell me everything. Just do it." He was even more eager now that we'd begun.

"It is my way of showing respect."

Akai lifted his head, mouth open, dark blue eyes shining. "Thank you."

I nodded and gently placed my hand between his cheeks. "You're very slick so this shouldn't hurt."

I rubbed my thumb around the edges of his hole, which was already gaping. My thumb went right in as I felt the rim. It was soft, eager as I pressed the sides to widen the gape. He was young and fit. I'd seen his eyes widen at my size, but he would take me well. The fit would be tight and wonderful.

My cock dripped, wanting in now.

I added a finger alongside my thumb.

"Does that hurt?"

"No." The reply was muffled, and I looked up to see he had his arm over his mouth and seemed to be biting himself. I smiled. I'd done that when I was young to keep from coming too fast.

He was more than ready. I liked to think it was me he wanted and not just any alpha.

"Lift your legs."

He moaned, bringing his knees up, feet off the mattress.

His hole became more exposed. It was shining with slick. But the position was still too low.

I reached up and grabbed a pillow. "Sweetheart, lift your hips."

He did and I pushed the pillow beneath his ass. Now he was ready.

I put my palms flat on the backs of his thighs and lined up. My cock was so hard, I didn't need to hold it or steady it. It knew where it needed to be.

I wiggled my hips to move my cock between his cheeks and find that luscious spot. It was already sucking at the head. A little push and the head was inside.

My rut threatened to take over with heavy thrusting right away. I demanded more from myself. His heat wanted me, but Akai deserved time to get used to me. This was something big invading a small space.

Slowly, I inched in.

Akai's hips rose to meet me. He was already moving them up and down, trying to get me deeper. My cock was sucked in by his hole. Welcomed. He was warm and wet, the muscles already squeezing in all the right places.

"That's beautiful." My words sounded forced out of me. I was trying to control myself and holding my breath.

All the while, Akai's hips were rising up. He moaned. "More."

His small body was strong, pushing me into sliding deep faster.

I pushed the rest of the way in and felt my hips press down. That was the rut coming up inside me, wanting control. Wanting to sink deep and drown in the body beneath mine.

I pulled almost all the way out.

Akai gasped, then nearly choked as I pushed back in with a smooth thrust. He did not tense but remained open, knees spread, which told me he did not feel pain.

My hair fell into my eyes as I pulled out and pushed back in, moving faster with each thrust, letting him have my full need.

My balls pulsed with the pleasure of outright fucking. It had been a long time, and last year I'd spent my rut alone, attempting to sleep it off after long jerk sessions.

I moved one hand to Akai's hard cock, wrapping my fingers around it. As I pushed into him and moved my hand up, he let out a strangled cry. His cock throbbed and he came in a jet of white, shooting high and strong.

His fists clenched at his sides.

He tossed his head on the pillow, eyes closed. My own body was on fire. I buried myself inside him, feeling the orgasm move through me. My balls dragged on the pillow he lay on. I pushed deeper, responding to his groans and exploded inside him.

I stiffened, held my breath, and throbbed all over.

Akai's arms rose as his head lifted. His eyes opened and he stared right into mine. Something electric surged between us. I realized my mouth was open, but no air was passing through. It was a long, long fall through ecstasy before I could focus.

I let go of his legs and grabbed his arms, pulling him up and into my embrace. I craved the feel of his body against mine.

He came willingly, sliding off the pillow and onto my thighs as I sat back. He squeezed my sides with his knees and put his arms over my shoulders, grabbing hard to keep from falling back.

I supported his lower back, fingers skimming his ass cheeks as I pulled his lower half even closer.

My knot began to swell.

"I feel it," he murmured, face pressed to my chest.

"Say yes if you're okay."

"Yes."

I nuzzled the top of his head. My lips skimmed his hair, kissing. My knot sent sizzles of delight through my body as it pressed into him, growing larger. If he wanted escape now, there was nothing he could do. Even as slick as he was, we were locked together until the bulge subsided.

Again, I climbed toward those pleasure heights, another orgasm pushing from the depths.

I clutched Akai, my hips thrust upward, and I came a second time. Akai moaned, squirming, the slick on his ass rubbing against the tops of my thighs. My fingers dug into his back and ass making sure he stayed in place.

"Yes," he spoke into my chest. "Yes. Yes."

My body responded to his open gift. He gave himself to me with a supreme open innocence I didn't think was possible. I kept having to remind myself it was his heat making him cling to me, not any real affection for me.

But my affection for him was blooming. He was the sweetest lover I'd ever held, fitting to me like a puzzle piece I hadn't known was missing until now.

"That's right. That's good. You're being such a sweetheart." I kept murmuring words of endearment without realizing it. His pheromones brought out the tenderness in me. His scent made my hunger strong.

My balls throbbed. My cock released again.

Because my knots lasted an hour, I realized our position would have my legs cramping before long. I pushed Akai forward until he slid off me and I was more on top, leaning as much of my weight as I could on my arms. His bent knees stayed tight to my sides. My head came back and our faces were close now. So close.

Akai's eyes opened. His lips were full, slightly parted, and his tongue darted to lick the top one.

I couldn't help myself. I leaned in and kissed that open mouth, nudging it further open so I could touch his tongue with my own.

Akai did not flinch as I expected.

I reeled at the unplanned intimacy.

Akai lifted his legs and suddenly my knot slid deeper, which I thought was impossible. His heels skimmed my ass as he wrapped his legs around my hips.

He showed me he wasn't tired in the least, but eager as his mouth opened wider and he probed my own.

What was happening? This was unplanned. We were in rut and heat, but beyond that, it was a simple mating. Nothing more.

I understood sometimes mating and intimacy could be confused. The chemicals released during the act urged for connection. But a true mental bonding didn't happen unless two people were usually already in love. At least, that was what I'd been told.

But this young omega in my arms made me question everything.

I pulsed inside him, eyes rolling up. His arms clenched around me.

When I broke the kiss for air, Akai shuddered beneath me. His fingernails dug into my flesh.

"Don't go," he mumbled.

I shook my head. "I can't leave you. It's too much. Too tight. So good."

My voice sounded faraway.

"Stay," Akai said. He sounded like he was crying. "Stay."

The alpha in me responded. "I'm right here."

"Yes. Right here. Stay."

I leaned in again kissing his forehead and cheeks. He moved his head back until our lips met again.

Our mate. Our fated mate.

Dani had never interrupted me with thought statements while I was in a knot before. My body jerked as if stung.

He is the one. He may not know, but we do.

I shut my eyes tight.

"No," I said aloud.

"Danon." Akai's voice brought me back into the moment. "Is it wrong?"

Not wrong. Spontaneous. Unintentional.

Sensational.

I shook my head hard. My hair went flying, strands slapping and sticking to my sweat-drenched face.

"Not wrong at all, sweetie."

Akai let out a growly sigh. He was hungry. Just like me.

I covered his mouth with my own again, hard and demanding.

Akai's hands pressed up my back and into my hair, grabbing, pulling. The slight pain sent me straight into orgasmic bliss again.

I couldn't believe this was only the start of my rut.
