Chapter Eight
Aiden
I covered her with my body as I kissed her. My hands immediately groped for any purchase they could make under that shirt, finding her breasts and kneading them, while I rocked into her, showing her what she did to me.
Her flesh was just as soft and lush as I thought it would be- just as smooth and flawless. Dammit! I wasn’t going to be able to hold back long.
I couldn’t get enough of her. My hand quickly moved between her thighs, to feel her juices. When one finger barely fit into her slick warmth, I knew that she wouldn’t be comfortable, but I couldn’t stop myself. Oh, fuck, she was so tight.
Everything in me was screaming to take her. Rosa was mine and she had saved herself. For me. Her mate.
“It’s gonna hurt, Rosa.” I broke my kiss to whisper in her ear.
“It’s okay.” She looked up at me through hooded silver eyes and I melted.
This was Rosa. I had to ease into it. I couldn’t just go all in. She trusted me.
“Are you sure?” I wasn’t sure I could stop myself if she said no at this point, but I had to ask.
She nodded, “Just go slow.”
I moaned and slid down her body. When my mouth reached her core she cried out and my dick jumped, stiffening to the point of bursting.
Instantly, my wolf took over, drawing me to her, as I dug my tongue into her sweetness like I was looking for the last drops of alcohol in a deep glass. It was too much, my wolf was loosing his shit.
I moved my head back to try to gain control of the wolf within and he struck, sinking in, right above her inner thigh.
The cry she let out was music to his ears as she convulsed under my mouth.
I closed my eyes, I knew that there would be no fighting it in the end, and now was the end.
“Please.” She begged and I couldn’t take it anymore. I pulled my sweats down enough to pull my dick out. It was rock hard and ready, but I was so worried that I would hurt her.
I aligned the head of my cock with her tiny opening and rested back on top of her, kissing her deeply again as I forced myself slowly in.
I wasn’t even halfway past the tip of my head when she gasped and began to arch her hips away from me. I had to follow her movements to move deeper. She buried her head in my chest when my cock was fully submerged and that was when I felt it.
Her teeth sunk into my peck hard and deep, breaking the skin. Mating us, bringing our wolves together. Connecting them.
My brain wasn’t functioning and I knew I should have stopped there, but I couldn’t. It was taking all my willpower to control my speed and force.
I wanted to pull the t-shirt off of her and watch her tits bounce as I slammed into her again and again, but I couldn’t. I had to be gentle. She needed gentle for her first time.
“God, Aiden.” She gasped as I slowly slid out and back into her.
“I’ll move slow, but I can’t stop now.”
“Don’t stop. Please.”
Rosa
“What’s this one, Rosa?” He asked, running a hand over the markings on my ribcage.
During our mating, I had received his wolf on my stomach and a triad of stars on my neck. He had the same triad now as well, but neither one of us knew the meaning, so he took it upon himself to take in all of my prophecies.
I squirmed as he touched one of my lifelong markings though. Something about his touch in that spot, sent a jolt to my core. A painful one.
All I could think was that I didn’t like it. I didn’t like how it felt physically, but emotionally too, and I couldn’t place it.
“Don’t touch it please.” I rolled over and draped my arm over it. I had no idea where that had come from, but it wasn’t like me at all and Aiden’s facial expression said that I needed to regroup, fast.
“I’ve just always wondered.” He watched me cautiously, moving up on the bed and away from my marking, “It’s not in our languages.”
“I just-” I fumbled with my words, “It’s the one I can’t read.”
“You jumped, like I’d hit a sore spot.” His eyes narrowed at me, “Are you okay? Did I hurt you?”
“I just don’t like it being pointed out.” What was wrong with me? How had I felt horrible from one touch to the marking? It wasn’t possible. I had other markings, but that one was nearly on fire now.
“When do you think you’ll be back?” He folded some of my hair behind my ear.
“I don’t know.” I snuggled into him, inhaling his earthy scent, that mixed with my own floral and aerial.
“You are coming back, right?” He pulled me back to look into my eyes.
“I have to, to face Yuma, remember?” I smiled up at him.
“But when will that be?” His brow furrowed and I felt horrible. Aiden was my mate though and I had to tell him the truth.
“I don’t know.” My eyes glossed over as I looked into his eyes, “This was why Elijah was helping me.” I swallowed my tears as he backed away, “We were so close to a clean break.”
“I love you, Rosa. Not just as my friend and the girl I trained with, but as the Queen I know you can be.” He gave a tight nod, but his eyes were strained, “You will work on you, and strengthening your power and I will work on my own. When we meet again, it will be better and we won’t keep any secrets.”
“I wasn’t keeping secrets.” I began to cry.
“No,” He snorted, “You just didn’t tell me.”
“I didn’t know we were mates.”
"Well, now you know,” He scoffed, "But maybe we should keep it between us for now. You know, not tell anyone until you return."
“Aiden-”
He kissed me, “Let’s just enjoy the next hour before you leave me.”
