Moving my hand to her hip to hold her in place, I thrust, savoring the cry that burst from her and the way she clenched around me. I could usually control the more brutal side of myself, but she’d brought it all to the fore, and the way her cunt clutched at my cock drove me on.

I looked down to where my flesh disappeared into her, relishing the sight of the thin white stripe pulled tight on her cheek. It seemed appropriate that I was only pushing aside that veneer of innocence, not removing it. Cadence would always be a good girl.

She would bemygood girl.

Pulling back, I thrust again, hips meeting her ass as I let out a groan at the feel of her. Her channel clenched and fluttered around my invasion, trying to milk me already, but I wasn’t going to let this end yet despite the way my knot was bulging.

I wasn’t letting her off that easy.

Tightening my grip on her, I used it as leverage to yank her back and slam in harder. Her cries would have made me think she was in pain if she hadn’t been pushing herself into my thrusts each time I surged forward.

I felt her tensing, already on the edge of another orgasm. As much as I wanted to draw out the experience, I couldn’t hold my own back much longer.

Pulling on her hip to change the angle, my pace increased. Cadence clung to the opposite edge of my desk, moans slipping from her parted lips as she panted with her cheek against the wood.

The thought of spilling inside her, of filling her with my seed until it ran down her thighs, pushed me over the edge, and I gritted my teeth as my knot flared and my cock began to pulse. The first jet of release was followed by Cadence keening as her own orgasm washed through her and her channel rippled around my knot.

The question of whether she was on birth control floated through my mind, but I wasn’t going to ask. It was harder to get an omega pregnant outside their heat, but not impossible, and I wanted her ripe with my child. It was another way to tie her to me. To mark her as mine until I could place my bite on her neck and claim her forever.

I wasn’t going to remind her it was a possibility. I’d let nature take its course, and if she wasn’t pregnant by the time her heat came, I’d make sure she took when I claimed her. She’d be so full of my seed it wouldn’t matter if she used contraceptive, I’d still knock her up.

I’d already proven I could be patient and wait for the right opportunity. Cadence thought this was going to be a short-term arrangement. That I’d grow tired of her and let her go.

She didn’t realize this wasn’t a passing infatuation. I wasn’t going to give her up. She’d given me her trust and innocence, and I could never repay her for that.

I’d give her my mark and claim her as mine so I could keep her and take care of her forever.

Chapter Sixteen

Cadence

Ilaid, exhausted, across the top of Leo’s desk. His cock was still buried inside me, knot locking us together, the occasional pulse from him sending an answering ripple through my core. My scalp tingled from the grip he’d had on my hair and my pussy felt battered, but it was a delicious ache that I couldn’t deny savoring.

He'd released his hold on my hair when he’d come, both hands bracketing my hips as he ground himself into me. The possessive way he’d looked at me when he was between my thighs made my belly flutter despite being sated and worn out, and Leo’s quiet growl showed he felt it.

He’d said he wanted me,the real me, and the conviction in his voice had almost been terrifying. It was supposed to be illegal to bond an omega against their will, but it happened, and it wasn’t like Leo was concerned with the law. I had a feeling he’d have bitten me if he was able.

He wouldn’t be able to shove me aside and forget about me if he claimed me.

I was surprised at how little fear that thought caused. I’d never even considered being claimed and bonding with an alpha, especially not one like Leo, and while I knew it was far too soon to give it real thought, I couldn’t deny the way my heart fluttered at the idea.

And these thoughts were exactly what I’d been trying to prevent.

I needed to remember that Leo and I didn’t have a future beyond however long it took for him to fuck me out of his system and find a new interest. I wasn’t his mate, and no matter what he made it sound like, I doubted he wanted one.

Sighing, I lifted my cheek from the wood and glanced back over my shoulder. Leo’s hands had been massaging the sides of my ass, but he stopped when he noticed me looking.

“Are you comfortable, or should I move us?”

I considered it for a moment, but just him shifting his weight from one side to the other sent a jolt through my core that was a blend of pleasure and dull pain.

“I’m fine.”

I let my cheek drop back to the desk, catching my breath as my heart rate slowed. I hadn’t known what to expect when I approached Leo tonight, but I’d had a feeling we were going to end up in this situation. I needed to be smarter, because as the hormones and happy feelings of satiated lust faded, I realized letting myself believe him for even a moment would be a mistake. It would only hurt more when he cast me aside.

He went back to stroking my sides, a quiet purr filling the room. My muscles softened at the sound, the omega part of my brain preening over making my alpha happy.

I ignored it, forcing myself to think about what Leo had made me agree to. He was right about me being able to quit one of my jobs if I didn’t have to worry about paying him in cash, and it made sense to leave Frankie’s even though I’d been there longer. Having cash daily was great, but the office paid more, and there was a better chance of advancing there. I’d never be anything more than a waitress at the diner.
