He drops his gaze to the tiled floor, and his shoulders slump. “Yes,” he admits, his voice a low growl. “I wanted to rip you away from her and take your place.”
“But you didn’t,” I say, conviction lacing my words. “I don’t know which one of us would win if we ever had that fight, and I don’t want to find out. But I’m your alpha, and I’m telling you that youwillstop punishing yourself for having these thoughts.”
He scoffs, shuffling his feet. “What, like it’s that easy?”
I take his chin and nudge it up, which is a pretty useless move because he has two inches on me and is always looking down at me anyway, but I need him to understand that I’m serious.
“If I was an asshole, I’d compel you to obey, just until the full moon passes.” I keep my voice soft, but his eyes flare in alarm. “But I’m not, so I won’t.”
“What, then?” he rasps. “I can’t go back to her, Carter. Not like this. She needs to rest.”
Sliding my palm up so I cup the back of his neck, I bring my forehead to his. “And you’re letting her. For the record, if you think Emma would protest your plan of biting and fucking, I think you’re wrong. She’s loving this.Allof it.”
Troy’s lips twitch up in one corner. “She is, that’s true. How the hell did we get so lucky?”
I shrug. “Fates, I guess. They knew to give us a mate who would cherish us for what we are, no questions asked.”
He heaves a big sigh, then wraps me in a hug, his thick arms coming around me and squeezing hard. “I love you, Carter.”
“Oof.” I pat his back, then hug him just as firmly. “I love you, too. Now can we please stop it with the cold water?”
Troy chuckles, then reaches around me and turns the water to warm. It takes a moment for it to heat, but when the temperature of the spray changes, we both sigh, relaxing instantly.
“That’s better.” I run my hand through my fur and slick it back, then cock an eyebrow at him. “Now, are you going to let me suck you off so we can both go back and relieve poor Sebastian of pussy-warming duty?”
My mate’s nostrils flare, and he grabs my hip, his claws digging into my skin. “You’d do that, Alpha? Go on your knees for me?”
Heat flashes through me, and my cock twitches up again even though the icy water had temporarily cooled me off before.
“Just this once,” I murmur, licking my lips. “An alpha serves his pack.”
With that, I drop to my knees on the tiles and wrap a hand around the base of Troy’s cock, right at the knot. I let him wait just a second, building the anticipation, then open my mouth and let his heavy cockhead glide over my tongue.
He lets out a low groan and braces his hand on the wall, then palms the back of my head and grabs hold of my fur. “I don’t think I’ll last.”
His words are desperate, confirmed by the steady trickle of precum dripping from his slit. I close my eyes, savoring the taste, and take him deeper. His hips roll forward, and he pushes himself right to the back of my throat, where he stays for a moment, as if this is exactly where he wants to be.
I retreat, pulling almost all the way off, then suck him in again, giving him the slightest scrape of my fangs. Troy hisses, then grabs my fur tighter and moves his hips, fucking my face for real.
It’s a fast, messy blow job, and I’m loving every moment of it. When Troy takes over and sets the rhythm, I drop one hand to my aching cock and stroke it fast, needing to come with him. His snarls fill the bathroom, and his legs tremble from the force of holding back. I want to tell him he’s safe, that he can use me however he wants me, but my mouth is full of his cock, so I glance all the way up and find him watching me, his fangs bared, his harsh features twisted with need.
“You look good on my cock,” he growls. He snaps his hips forward, until his knot bumps my snout. “I’m gonna give you so much cum, and you’ll drink it all down, won’t you?”
I glare at him. Teasing his alpha like this is a mistake I won’t let slide so easily. I wrap my hand around his knot more firmly and give him a powerful squeeze, and at the same time, I clamp onto his cock with my molars, giving him just enough pressure.
Troy cries out in surprise, then stills completely. Having his dick stuck between sharp fangs would probably be enough to scare anyone into obedience, and my mate is no exception. I’ll release him in a moment—I only wanted to show him who’s in charge.
Troy stares down at me, his mouth open, his breaths heaving, and loosens his grip on my fur slightly.
“Why does that feel so good, Carter?” he groans, rolling his hips just a little, as if he can’t stop himself. “It must mean I trust you with my life if I’m so fucking turned on by you chomping down on my cock.”
I give a snort, then loosen my grip on him and pop off his dick. “You’re impossible.”
His scarred face lights up in a grin. “Yeah. And you’re amazing.”
“Stop talking,” I tell him, “and give me your cum like you promised.”
With that, I suck him down again, deep into my throat, and clench my hand hard around his knot. Troy’s back bows from the pleasure, and I know he’s close, so I hollow out my cheeks and suck on his cockhead, tasting his salty precum. My dick twitches, my thighs trembling from the need to come, and when I stroke my shaft once, twice, I know I’m close.
