KAEL.
Would I be strong enough to protect her? Or am I driving her into more danger?
I wanted to mark her again to keep my wolf stronger than he already was. Regardless of whether it was fated or just a regular mate, the venom of an Alpha mixing with a female feeds strength to his wolf. I felt that when we rejected each other, a part of my wolf lost its strength. He was still strong, but he could be stronger.
As much as I wanted to maximize my strength to protect her, the Moonlight Ball was specifically organized for unmated Alphas and females. She might not be allowed entrance if she had a mark on her neck.
Rasmus was able to sneak in an invite for me because I finally confessed to him that Adessa and I were divorced. He asked why, but I told him I would explain when I came back.
I had no choice. Aside from the ball, sooner or later, he would still find out through the news that she was no longer my Luna, as I was sure the investigators were already digging into her life.
However, it appeared that Rasmus had not yet informed his mother, who still referred to Adessa as my wife. Or maybe, just like me, she wanted her to stay my wife.
I emerged from the bathroom, clad only in a towel. I was holding the sweatpants that I would put on, but the urge to smell Adessa won me over. So I went directly to her, the mattress dipping under my weight as I inched closer to her side. Just one kiss on her hair. I told myself.
I held the blanket covering her head and pulled it down gently, and with the lights illuminating from the bathroom, the color of it blinded me.
The person sleeping in my bed was a gingerhead.
“The fuck!” I growled, and it startled the female, making me jump back, and I fell backward on my side of the bed.
“Fuck!” I groaned. I landed on the floor with my back first, so it took time before I was able to balance myself. But before I could push myself up, a figure hovered over me from the bed, her hair cascading and caging her small face. “You’re home!” A wide smile was playing on Adessa’s lips. “Are you okay?”
“I am. Safe and sound, but what happened to your hair? Last time, you colored it black, and now red?” I asked, my face frowning, but deep inside, I was mesmerized by how the color fitted her. Any color seemed to work well on her. She giggled as she curled a finger around it. “I think it’s pretty.”
“It is, but you’re destroying it.”
“I’m a shifter, Kael. Eventually, my hair will grow back beautifully. Rasmus said I needed to change my hair color for the identification card he made for me. It was Mama Aria who suggested we try red.” “Alpha Rasmus…” I told her, this time, the scowl on my face was real. “And Mama Aria?”
“She said I could call her that.” She told me before moving away. It was only at that moment that I realized I was still on the floor, lying on my back. “But yes, I should call him Alpha Rasmus. Thank you for the reminder, Alpha Kael.”
I could picture her rolling her eyes, and it annoyed me. I didn’t like that she was comparing me to Rasmus and calling Aunt Aria “Mama.” It might be that my aunt really took a liking to her, but what if, because they knew she was no longer my Luna, they saw a possibility for her to be Rasmus’ mate?
I pushed myself and stood up, hands on my hips.
“I’m your husband. You can call me Kael or anything. But Rasmus must be addressed as Alpha unless he is someone special to you.” I said in one breath.
I watched her turn to look at me. In seconds, her eyes widened before she bit her bottom lip, suppressing a smile from coming out. Still, she couldn’t stop it, especially when she opened her mouth to speak. “You’re naked.”
My eyes darted down. The towel was on the floor, and I was stark naked. My cock was slowly turning hard, especially when she was looking at it.
I had two options: turn around and pick up my towel or own it.
“Should I hide? Or it shouldn’t matter, as I’m sure you’ve seen it before.”
“I’ve seen it before. I’ve also played with it, so no need to hide.” She said nonchalantly as she eased back on the headboard, resting her back against i before she reached for the lamp on her bedside table and
turned it on without taking hotel. Bel
offme. All the while, a teasing smile was on her face. “I’m putting a little more light to see if nothing has been destroyed by your new fiancee.”
“I broke up with Desiree on the same day I bought the ring back,” I told her, picking up the towel on the floor, but instead of wrapping it around me, I tossed it on the single couch nearby. “Well, it doesn’t mean you never used that with her before you broke up.” She said, her eyebrows raising.
“We didn’t have sex.” If she was indeed the person I had sex with while I was drunk, then Desiree and I never engaged in any sexual activity together.
“Why?”
“I don’t know. Maybe forgetting my memory made me forget how to have sex, too.” I shrugged my shoulders.
I should be slipping inside the cover,
but I liked the way she would discretely lower her gaze to watch my cock but was still appearing unaffected by it. But I knew it was the exact opposite. My hard cock was affecting her because was beginning to smell her arousal.
“No. I don’t think so. You still fuck me so good and hard just the way I…” She paused. Her eyes widened when she realized what she was saying.
I chuckled softly and crossed my arms against my torso. My chest was puffing with pride while my cock was already saluting her. “So, are you saying I’m good in bed? Always been good in bed.”
“Again.” She glared at me. “I never had any sexual partner other than you, so maybe even if you just stick it inside me and do nothing, I will still find it good.”
“Really? Why don’t we try?”
“What?” She gasped.
“I’ll stick it inside and not move. We’ll see if it’s still good.”
She forced a chuckle before sliding down her body to lie down, pulling her blanket up to her chin. “Go to bed, Kael. It’s late, and I’m sure you’re tired. This conversation is going nowhere.” She then turned to the side, with her back to me.
I chuckled and grabbed the blanket,
sliding in and moving closer to her. I
leaned forward, hovering my head on hers. “Not going to happen. I’m not sleeping yet. I dodged too many bullets avoided landmines, and escaped natural catastrophes to come back to you safely because you said you’d do something about this hard thing.”
She giggled, but she didn’t move, and I saw her close her eyes, clutching her blanket tightly. “I’m sleepy…”
“A sleepy shifter won’t emit an aroused scent, Adessa,” I told her as I lay on my back, sliding my arms under my head and staring at the ceiling.
I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face.
I had no intention of putting her on the spot and forcing her to do something she didn’t want to. I was only teasing her.
