She found the one damned book in the entire library that had sex in it. Yeah, I had been the one reading it and had haphazardly left it right there on the table but…my mate was dangerous. Treacherous, even.
And the fact that she had already given herself to Jude hadn’t made things better.
In fact, her submission to his mating had amped up everything by sixteen times.
She had the audacity to sit on my couch. In that perfect dress. With her innocent laugh and sultry smile that had my dick bobbing in my pants, demanding to get out.
I couldn’t have stayed in that room with her for a second longer without attacking her. I would never violate my mate, and I thought control was one of my strongest virtues, but Freya had all of my knowledge of my strengths thrown out the window.
At one point, she moaned softly, reading the book, and moved her thighs against one another.
Not even when I was a teenager had I ever come in my pants, but there was a first time for everything, apparently.
I wished more than anything, the both of us could just drop our walls, put down our mental shields, and simply give in to what our dragons wanted.
My dragon was seething inside me. He was so desperate for her. Wanting had long gone and was replaced with a hunger, a need and desire for her that was more powerful than a hurricane inside me.
I was losing the war with him.
To wait for her.
At this point, I was ready to stomp back into the library, pick her up, and bring her to my bed. She wanted me. I wanted her.
Damn it. This was more frustrating than anything else in my life.
A cock-blocking thought infiltrated my frustration and screamed at me.
Maybe after mating with Jude, she was rethinking the rest of us. She was rethinking me. Maybe she would rather not mate me at all anymore.
So why show up in my library. Moving her legs and reading naughty parts of a book.
Never in my life had I ever been so damned confused about a female.
The truth was, I was scared to lose her. That’s what was holding me back as ridiculous as it sounded.
The last time I had people in my life who supposedly cared about me, they treated me like I was some dog who could be placated by treats and snacks.
I cranked on the cold water and stayed under the chilly spray until my need for her had been semi-quelled and sleep was tugging at my consciousness.
I chuckled a little as I slid into bed. If someone had told me I’d be marble hard over a lesser a few years ago, I would’ve laughed them off the face of the planet.
And now?
That lesser was my queen.
And, for the record, she was less than no one.
No one.
Chapter Eleven
Freya
Two of the highers were to wed, and this was my first time dressing up for such an event. Because I previously had only attended as a lesser, serving at all important functions. And I’d been comfortable doing that. Carrying food or dishes, pouring fine wines into beautiful glasses, bringing around coffee.
Taking care of the guests and making sure they always had everything they needed was second nature by the time I was thirteen. Because child labor was not banned among lessers. I’d never even thought much about it, just doing my job because it was expected of me.
So it was totally strange to be sitting at the dressing table in my room and preparing to be an actual guest. Word had gotten around that I’d accepted my mates, meaning, the expectations for my appearance were high. We hadn’t had a formal wedding, yet, but we would. We’d never be able to afford it when all of my mates were royals.
