He repeats his plea a few more times, and I slide my fingers down to his entrance, finding it wet and open. It’s surprisingly satisfying how quickly he becomes aroused, how instantly he gets ready for me. I make a few slow circles around his hole, then slip a finger inside, and he lets out a hot sigh.

My finger finds his prostate and presses against it gently. It had been swollen during his heat, but now it’s back to its normal size yet still incredibly sensitive. I press it rhythmically while Jared continues making those soft, mewling sounds, his eyelids squeezed tightly shut, his long lashes with their flirtatious curve looking adorable. His parted lips are wet, showing the pink inside, his breath hitched, and he murmurs softly, "Yes, yes, yes."

Then he returns to the same plea.

"Put it in, put it in…"

Eventually, I can’t resist my perfect mate anymore either, especially when he impatiently wraps his calves around my hips and pulls me toward him with a hungry, determined movement, surprisingly strong at that.

I press my swollen cock against his ring, pushing firmly, and sliding into that divine tightness. Jared is exceptionally narrow, his walls massaging me so intensely from the very first movement that I have to grit my teeth to keep everything from going too fast, forcing myself to find some staying power. I wait for a brief moment, gathering my strength and breathing through it.

Jared opens his eyes, and our gazes meet. Now that I’m deep inside him, I can feel him even more, if that’s even possible, every one of his emotions, almost every thought.

And suddenly…

"Why did you wait all those years without an omega… when we weren’t even together?" he blurts out breathlessly.

Wow. So I hadn’t read everything from his mind after all, and I certainly hadn’t expected that question.

I close my eyes, concentrating on speaking. It still isn’t easy, and my mind is unaccustomed to communicating this way, which makes me uncomfortable, almost anxious.

"From the moment I laid eyes on you, it could only be you, Jared. No other omega would do."

Big celadon eyes bore into mine. Then a desperate, half-sobbing moan tears from Jared’s throat.

"I should’ve been yours from the start, Mauro. It should’ve been you, only you."

Sensing his turbulent emotions, I quickly cover his mouth with mine, giving him a distraction, but he responds to the kiss with astonishing tenderness, his lips softly brushing against mine.

"I think I’m falling for you, Mauro. And I want you to know that I’m yours, unapologetically, wholly yours."

He breathes the words straight into my mouth, and I answer with hot kisses while gently rocking my body against him. My manhood dives into his willing, pulsing tunnel, embracing me, swallowing me, every thrust carrying me deeper into his tight heat, blissful, perfect.

But as I sway in endless pleasure, tear after tear streams from his eyes. I can’t keep thrusting and pursuing my own ecstasy, even though I so want to already tumble over the edge into the spiraling orgasm, but I stop the rocking, raise my hand, and gently wipe the tears from his cheek.

I still haven’t found my footing with speaking, so I whisper the words to him in my mind instead, though I don’t even know why.

"Don’t cry, baby…" I send the words to him silently. "It’ll be all right from this moment forward…"

And then a miracle happens.

Jared answers, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. And it happens the same way, inside his mind, I hear him.

"I want to believe that!"

And then he opens his eyes, as if realizing what just happened, and for a moment we simply stare at each other, my dick remaining lodged deep in his passage.

"Did you hear that?" I ask inside my head.

"Yes! I’ve heard that True Mates can sense each other’s emotions very precisely, but thoughts? That should be impossible!"

I decide to test it. Maybe this is a strange moment to do it while we’re connected like this, but why the hell not.

"Can you hear what I’m thinking right now?"

He furrows his brow slightly.

"Are you trying to send me something now? I hear nothing."
