Chapter 7
ETHAN
It has been a month. A month of just me and Madi. We have gained a trust that I never expected. She stays with me by choice now. I haven’t had to lock the door in two weeks. Probably before then, but I stopped two weeks ago. We have even gone out and exercised. Let our wolves out to run. I know that we can return to the pack house but neither of us really wants to. That would mean that we have to face reality, the reality that we aren’t mates. At least not yet.
My wolf doesn’t like that idea at all. As the days get closer to her birthday he gets more antsy. He wants to mark her all the time. I constantly have to hold him back. Especially in the morning, right when we wake up, he pulls her closer and takes a deep breath taking in her scent. I have to hold us both back.
I kiss her as often as I can. Leaving love marks on her neck. I crave her taste all the time. Sometimes it becomes too hard to control myself. Like this morning, I have to pull myself away from her and go for a run. One more month and I can’t take it. She needs to be mine. Only mine.
I ran hard, trying to drain the desire from my body, but it was next to impossible. Just a tiny flash of her in my mind brought it all back. Fighting yourself is hard.
I made it back to the house after an hour run, it did nothing for me. I head straight to the bathroom, pulling off my shirt on the way, trying to get a cold shower before I see her. Only when I open the door, I am floored. Madi is fresh from the shower and only in her underwear. She gasps and tries to cover herself with a towel but it is too late. I have seen her. So much of her. Desire takes control. I grab her up slamming my lips to hers.
As I kiss her I tear the towel away from her so that her flesh can meet mine. The heat and pull are too much. I have to do something. The next step if you will. I lift her up and carry her to the nearest room. Which happens to be mine. Not that I have slept in this room since I brought her here.
I lay her out on my bed. She looks so gorgeous. My lips start making their way down her body. Caressing her breasts through her bra. She lets out a moan that makes me want to take her so bad. I have to hold back though. I promised. I continue to make my way down her body. Licking and kissing all over her beautiful stomach. Finally my teeth make contact with the lace of the underwear that I bought her. I start to peel them off her with my teeth.
“Ethan,” She moans, but at the same time I can hear the panic in her voice.
“Don’t worry baby, I won’t go too far. I am just going to pleasure you.” I smirk and groan. So close, I can’t let her stop me. My teeth grip on her underwear again. I pull them all the rest of the way off her body. I stand there for a moment after I drop her underwear, just admiring her body under me. I can’t wait until I can take her completely. I know it will happen.
“I am going to make you scream my name.” I growl as I spread her legs. I start at her thigh, licking and kissing until I meet the spot I want the most. I slide my tongue into her folds finally getting my first real taste of her. I moan in pleasure when I’m met with her core and she moans too. This brings a smile to my face. I am pleasuring her and I haven’t even really started yet.
Licking and sucking I decide to add my fingers. She is already writhing under me so when I slide my fingers inside she moans my name.
“Baby, you feel so good. I can’t wait until I am sliding myself in here.” I head back to my job, I can hear my wolf purr in my mind as I taste her again. Shit this is so good.
“Ethan, I’m close.” She moans out. Gripping the sheets at her sides. As I look up at her I can’t help but picture what it will look like when I am deep inside her. I grip her side with my left and while my right continues to slide into her. I speed up a little to get her there a little faster.
“Ethan…” She screams out as her body releases. Right on my tongue. I purr at the taste of it. I ease out of her and slow my tongue, letting her release continue for just a little longer.
I kissed my way up her stomach again, “That’s my good girl.”
She is breathing heavily. “This hardly seems fair. You did that to me and what do you get in return?”
“I get the best taste in the world in my mouth.” I lick my lips to make my point.
She pushes at my face. “You are gross.”
I moan and move my body over the top of hers. “You make me that way.” I slide my fingers along her bare skin. It feels so good. “Baby, you are driving me crazy. I want you so bad. Nothing I am doing is helping. How many days is it now?”
“Twenty seven.” She moans, clearly liking the feel of my hands on her bare skin.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“I don’t know if I can wait that long. I want to, for you. I just don’t know if I can.”
She looks away from me. “I understand. Maybe we should take some time apart. It might make it easier.”
I growl out. “Not going to happen. I can’t even sleep without you. I don’t know what to do if you are not my mate. I wanted to talk to you about something actually.”
She turns back to me. “What?” Her beautiful eyes look straight into mine.
“I want to make you my chosen mate. We wouldn’t have to wait anymore. I know you feel for me too. I just don’t see the point in waiting anymore.” She is still almost naked and it is killing me. The only part of her body that is covered is her luscious breasts. I want her to say yes to me. I want her to agree and let me mark her.
“Ethan, that is a lot to think about. What we are giving up. Think about it. Your fated mate is supposed to be the most compatible person in the world for you. Your perfect pair. I don’t know if I am that for you. I would do my best to try to be but let’s face it, I am a nobody. You are the son of the Alpha, you are so much more than me. How could I ever be good enough.”
I wrap both my arms around her. “Oh, my God baby. There is no way I could feel any more strongly about a person. Each day it gets stronger. You are perfect for me. I don’t think there is a way that anyone else could be more perfect. I need you baby.” I rub my hands along her back. Can’t she see how perfect she is.
She pulls back from me. “I think I should get dressed.” She doesn’t look me in the eyes.
As she reaches the door I call her. “You’re going to see, baby. I am your mate.” I have never been so sure of something in my life. She leaves me alone in my room. I want to chase after her, try to get her to agree with me. But maybe she needs time, time to see that I am right. I know I am right. I don’t want to keep waiting for what I know.
