The Alpha's Punished Mate

8 claiming his mate.

The night was becoming cold again. Sky tried to find a comfortable position on the steps. She was sitting on the top step with her back leaning against the door. She was shivering. She looked towards the mattress longingly. William was sleeping with his back to her. He had the blanket wrapped around him. Sky’s teeth rattled. She rubbed her arms trying to create some warmth, but it felt like a cold blanket had been wrapped around her. Her hands, legs, ears and nose were frozen. And she could feel the cold taking over the rest of her body. She was going to freeze to death if she continued to sit there.

No.

Sky pushed to her feet and walked to the mattress. She wasn’t going to freeze to death when there was somewhere warm she could sleep. She lay down on the mattress and pulled the blanket over her body. She slid close to him. For a minute she held her breath waiting for him to say something. They haven’t spoken since he came out of the bathroom. Sky barely looked at him, even when he gave her her share of the food that Gol gave them.

 The food was still not enough. But Sky knew it was better than nothing. They ate their lunch and dinner in silence.

She was doing exactly what he told her to do. She was keeping her distance. But she couldn’t do it when she was freezing to death.

She waited but he didn’t move. His warmth radiated to towards her. But she was still cold. She had to get closer to him. She turned around to face his back. She got close to him until her front was plastered to his back.

He made a moaning sound that lit up her entire body. Burning flames of desire flickered inside her, and she felt her limps grow warm. Sky bit into her bottom lip as she felt better. She closed her eyes sucking in every wave of warmth exuding from him. She sighed as sleep dragged her down. She came awake a few seconds later. And they had changed their positions in sleep. He was closer than before. He had turned around in his sleep. Now his arm was slung over her, and he had her pulled close to his chest. He was holding her so close. She could feel the steady beating of his heart. His chest rose up and down slowly, showing that he was deep in sleep. He mumbled something in his sleep. Sky froze as she caught one word.

“Mate,” he mumbled with a satisfied sigh. His arms tightened slightly around her. But he said…I wasn’t his mate, Sky thought a little confused. Her confusion turned into flaming desire as his lips brushed the back of her neck. She trembled, biting harder into her bottom lip as a moan pushed out of her mouth.

He somehow heard the sound and then jerked awake. The arm around her lifted off her taking his warmth away. Sky suddenly felt cold.

“Sorry,” he said softly and then turned around to face the other direction. She lay there feeling confused and turned on at the same time. It felt awkward and comforting sleeping there next to him. Sky didn’t know what to do. She closed her eyes and tried to forget the feel of his lips on her neck.

It took forever for her to fall asleep. And when she eventually did she fall asleep, she dreamed of him kissing more than her neck. And it felt so good. Sky woke up with start as it felt like she was reaching for him. She opened her eyes to find the mattress empty. She looked around the room. He was sitting in his spot in a corner on the other side of the room. And he was staring at her as if she did something wrong.

Sky ignored him. She got up from the bed, and walked to the bathroom. She used the toilet and got into the shower. She took a quick shower. Once she was done, she looked around for something to wear. She didn’t feel like wearing her dirty dress again. She found one of William’s clean t-shirts. It was folded in a hamper next to the door. Sky put it on. She didn’t even stop to think what he’ll say to her when he saw her wearing his clothes. She actually didn’t care what he thought. She smoothed the t-shirt down her body. It came to her knees, since he was taller and bigger than her. She walked to the mirror and ran her fingers through her hair short hair. It wasn’t matted yet. She hoped her brother came for her before she looked like William out there. She ran her tongue over her teeth, she needed to brush her teeth too. She flipped the mirror open and found a number of unopened toothbrushes. She stared at them. She found it strange that there were a lot of them. How long was Gol planning on keeping William in there? Sky asked herself. But she shook he head. It was none of her business.

 She opened one of the tooth brushes and used it.

She walked back into the room to find him still sitting in his corner eating. She looked at the spot beneath the hole in the ceiling, she didn’t hear the food dropping while she was in the bathroom. But he left her share of the food there. Sky picked it up, and moved to the steps. He got up, and walked to the bathroom. Once he was done in there he walked back to his spot in the corner. They sat on opposites sides of the room and ate in silence. Sky could feel his eyes on her, but he said nothing. She kept silent too. The hours of the day crept by slowly. Sky kept to her side, and he did the same. Lunch time rolled by and he stepped beneath the hole. He caught the food packet and then left her share on the ground. Sky walked and picked it up. She moved back to her spot again. They didn’t speak to each other even during dinner. Their day went by in silence. At night he moved to the mattress. Sky lingered on the steps until she couldn’t bear it anymore. The cold felt like it was sinking into her bones.

She had no choice but to move to the mattress and sleep next to him. She got closer to him, needing his warmth. This time he didn’t jerk awake as if he didn’t expect her. He turned around and opened the blanket for her. Sky stared at him for a few seconds, and then snuggled close to him. He wrapped an arm around her and tugged her close. His warmth seeped into her skin. Sky sighed as sleep took over her mind as he held her tighter.

As days past they formed a strange routine, and an attachment to each other. They didn’t speak to each other all day, but when night came they couldn’t wait to sleep together on that mattress. Sky counted every hour until she felt the air turn cold in the room. He would sleep on the mattress first, and then she would lie down a few minutes later next to him. He would turn around and wrap his arm around her. Sky’s body would shake from the desire that thrummed inside her. She would bite into her bottom lip, trying very hard not to react to his closeness, until she tasted her own blood.

She wanted to touch him, but there was still tension between them that prevented them from giving into the feelings that were growing between them with every passing day. But her body couldn’t ignore the feeling that he ignited within her. Her p***y pulsed with need, and she was growing wet with every passing second.

What was she going to do? Sky asked herself as she felt every inch of his body as his arm kept tightening around her, pulling her closer and closer.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Holding her in his arms every night was starting to feel like torture. But he couldn’t stop himself. William swallowed hard as he pulled her close to his body. She felt so soft against him. She has taken to wearing his shirt. And she looked so gorgeous and tempting in them. He could barely keep his hands to himself. He breathed in her scent. Now, it was mingled with his scent since they have been sharing everything that was his. William closed his eyes as his body turned hot. She smelled and felt like his.

All the reasons why he couldn’t claim her flew out of the window as he pulled her closer to his body. She whimpered, and he was sure she could feel how hard he was for her. She grasped his arm, as she trembled against him.   

“Please,” she moaned as if she was in pain.  

“What?” William asked leaning close. His lips brushed against her neck, and she moaned arching into him. She rubbed her ass against his hard c**k in the process. William clenched his jaw as pleasure filled him. But she did it again, driving him crazy. He opened his mouth and felt his teeth sink into her skin where her shoulder met her neck. She jolted against him, and moaned his name.

Fuck…what was he doing? This was crazy. He shouldn’t be doing this.

William pulled back, and was about to turn away and force himself to fall asleep when she gripped his hand. She intertwined their fingers. She turned around to face him. Her eyes were blown as she stared at him.

He took a deep breath, and he watched her as she leaned close to him. Her lips came closer, and William couldn’t resist her anymore. He closed the gap between them and flicked his tongue against her lips, just to taste her. Her eyes darkened with desire.

“More,” she said leaning close to him. William kissed her slowly. She opened her mouth letting him in. He pushed her to her back and deepened the kiss. She moaned, pulling him closer. Her arms went to his back holding him tighter.

Everything in him screamed that he should claim her. He ignored the that voice and enjoyed the stolen moment. He kissed her deep and long. He clutched her close as if it was the first and last time he would have the opportunity to have her like this.

He didn’t know when her brother would come back for her.

He growled deep inside at the thought of her brother taking her away from him. A possessive feeling filled him, and the urge to mark her so that everyone would know that she belonged to him clouded his mind.

Mine, he growled in his mind.

He ripped at her t-shirt and stared down at the column of her neck. His teeth sharpened in his mouth. Mine…mine…mine…the word rang over and over in his mind. As if sensing his need to mark, she shifted her head to the side. It was like she was accepting him as her mate.

Pulled by an invisible force he couldn’t resist, William leaned down and sank his teeth into her flesh. She moaned, her body trembling beneath him.

“My… my… my…what do we have here?” William heard Gol’s voice fill the room. He froze above her. He slowly lifted his head. He felt like he was dreaming, when he saw him standing right there on the first step. He looked at him with a satisfied look on his face. “I’ll leave you two. I see I have interrupted something every important.” He said and left just as quickly as he came.

Oh God... what have I done? William asked himself staring at the spot that Gol had just been a few seconds ago.

This was bad…really bad.
