The Alpha’s Contract

"Not yet." I murmur back, trying to ignore the growing ache inside of me.

His lips move down to the mark he gave me and his teeth nip at it as I feel the rumble from deep inside his chest. He moves a hand down to my thighs and from behind, uses his leg to push mine apart and sweeps a finger across my centre.

"Is that right?" He muses as his finger starts to circle my clit

I nod while trying to hold back a moan.

Removing his finger from my pussy, he spins me around to face him, pulling me flush. The water had washed away most of the blood, just a few spots remained on his chin. I brush them away and with one hand he lifts me and presses me into the cold tiles. I let out a gasp, it was a welcome relief for my hot skin.

"Feeling a little warm?" His crimson eyes lock on mine.

I nod, but it was more than just being warm. Everything was beginning to burn from the inside out. Droplets of sweat were making their way down the centre of my spine. The heat of the water made me feel like tearing my own flesh off. It had been so long since I had felt this.

"No, no, no." I push Dane away from me and turn the shower temperature down to as cold as it could be, firmly planting myself underneath the water while Dane watches me try to gain some control over what was happening to me.

'Yes, yes, yes.' Nyx mutters back in delight.

"This can't be happening now!" I mutter out loud. I spot Dane grinning at me while Nyx tells me it's because our body is ready for another pup. "Neah...." His grin is still plastered on his face. "You won't be able to stop it."

"I know. How did you know?"

"I could smell it." He joins me under the cold water. His muscles tensing from the cool temperature. "You can fight it, but you won't win. You know that. You will just prolong the inevitable" He tucks my wet hair behind my ears.

It felt like his crimson eyes are searching my soul as he leans in to kiss me. His hand reaches out and he turns the shower off. Immediately, I feel the fire rising up through me. The steady growing ache settles heavily within. I couldn't fight it.

Two days. At least it wasn't as long as the first time. Though my body still ached and my pussy throbbed.

Dane softly circles my bellybutton with the tips of his fingers. He pauses briefly and turns my face to his. "You're quiet."

"Tired." I whisper back. "And I ache."

"Roll over." He tells me, getting onto his knees.

"Why?"

"Just roll over."

I flip onto my stomach and he straddles my thighs, pinning me to the bed. He runs his hands over the length of my back, pushing his fingers into my muscles and

working out the knots that al

developed. It felt so damn good and

I seem to sink further into the mattress as my body relaxes.

"Before you ask, Athena and Sebastian have the boys. They have been there for the last two days." He tells me

I nod into the pillow as he continued to work his magic.

"Damien has been keeping an eye on things?" My voice comes out all muffled from the pillow.

"Yes, Eric too."

"Nothing has happened?"

"Not that I am aware of. I did tell them to link me if it was that important, but other than that, they have it handled."

"Something doesn't feel right." I murmur

His hands pause over my lower back. I try to shuffle around but he has me trapped under his legs. "Can't just enjoy the moment?!" He muses "It's.... It's a gut feeling."

"I know. You are not the only one that thinks things are too easy after what has happened."

"Why haven't you said anything?" I wiggle out from under him which he finds hilarious

"Because I wasn't going to let my mate go out there while she was in raging heat.. And you are also supposed to be keeping a low profile. For now, you are here, with me. Damien and Eric have got things covered. Whatever is going on can be tomorrow's problems Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

I slump back on the pillows and he coils his arms around me, pulling me against him. Closing my eyes, I hear him groan only to open my eyes and see how his are glazed. I look at the clock. It was gone midnight. guess today's problems were already starting.
