“Me too.”
“So, want to do that, then?”
“I’m open to it.” I set down my empty cup and reached over to give Kassia a pat. “We still get to move at regular speed, right? Bonded and ideal mates doesn’t change anything else?”
“We get to move at whatever speed we’re comfortable with.”
I angled up to kiss him on the cheek. “I’m glad you’re as sweet as I remember. It would suck to be bonded to an asshole.”
A chorus of arooos echoed out of the nursery.
“I think they might be hungry,” Sidney said. “Want to supervise while I get them some brunch?”
“Absolutely I do.” I took Kassia from him, and we went about the puppy chores.
Being surrounded by them brightened my mood, but Sidney still watched me like he was worried I’d burst into tears at any moment.
I covered a yawn with her hand. “I might need a nap.”
“Want company?”
“Only if said company is going to cuddle.” I winked at him and set Kassia in with her littermates.
“Go get settled, and I’ll be there in a minute.”
I slipped into the bedroom and changed into pajamas simply because I could, then curled up in his blankets.
“Going for the full nap experience, I see,” Sidney said with a laugh.
“It’s Sunday. I’m allowed to chill to maximum levels before I go back to work tomorrow.”
He stripped down to his underwear and climbed in next to me, tugging me close. I caught his hand, laced our fingers together, and fell asleep almost immediately.
I lay awake. What did ideal mates even mean when it only considered biology? Allie was sweet, charming, and fuckable, but those didn’t necessarily make for a compatible life partner. They helped, but they weren’t a guarantee for a happy life. Most people took bonding extremely seriously given the permanent nature of it. While I wasn’t one to concern myself with what other people thought, I knew that a lot of my family would have opinions of my situation even though neither of us were at fault.
I hadn’t been planning on bonding anyone anytime soon, but I could also concede that there were worse people to be permanently stuck with. Would my parents like her? Would she get along with my siblings? My family could be a bit intense sometimes, but they were good people. I’d have to skip family dinner tonight. No way in hell was I going to show up with a fresh mate while she was still on the border of a heat. It could wait a few days.
We had too many things to figure out before I introduced her to everyone. A plan had to be in place before I subjected her to the million questions my mom was bound to ask.
Notes of ginger crept into Allie’s scent. I squirmed as it woke my body, and I fought the idea of waking her when she was exhausted. She solved the dilemma for me when she let out a long sigh that melted into a whimper and opened her eyes.
“Sidney,” she whispered. “I need…”
Allie reached for me, tangling her fingers into my hair. I followed the slight pressure and leaned in to kiss her. The sweetness pulled me in deep.
I slipped my hand under her pajama bottoms and panties, finding her already wet. She rocked against me, and I devoured the moan it triggered. Keeping one hand there, I lifted her shirt with the other and fastened my mouth over the taut nipple I found. The sounds and squirming it elicited had my cock painfully hard. I focused in and stroked her clit until she was panting.
“Please. I need more,” she whined and reached out, teasing me through my underwear.
The haze of my rut was creeping into my vision and making it difficult to think. I managed to pull off her bottom layers before I spread her thighs and plunged into her wet heat.
“Fuck,” I gasped out, my hips pistoning to get the friction we both craved.
My brain shut off. Allie locked her ankles behind me and dug her fingers into the tensed muscles of my back. Each thrust forced a breath from her, moans and cries becoming the only thing I wanted to hear. I braced myself on the headboard to get a better angle and drove into her. She pulsed around me, squeezing deliciously to drag me closer to the edge.
Allie arched beneath me, and I came with her. The rut held back on a full release, making sure I could continue attending to my omega.
“Let me on top,” she murmured, pushing at me.
