An Alpha's Love And Fire

Chapter 6: A Promise

-Lucian-

Maybe it was extreme to come here, sneaking into her room at night, which I found very small. I thought a beta was given a room almost as big as the alpha? Had Cecilia wanted it like this or did Lara just not like her that much? No, Lara was rather fond of her, it had to have been Cecilia’s choice, and it made sense. It was almost like my little mate just wanted to disappear into thin air. It pained me she wanted to hide so much because I loved looking at her. I loved looking at her long slim legs that were completely revealed to me in those small shorts and the way her n*pples poked against the material of her shirt. She wanted me but didn’t dare take the chance. That was fine. I would just give her a little push.

“What is it going to be, wildcat?” I asked.

“Stop calling me that,” she said, and looked at me for a while. I challenged her with my eyes, and I could see something going on inside of her, but what would be her choice? Suddenly, it was like she had decided something with herself, and she grabbed the hem of her t-shirt and threw it away.

I watched as her beautiful body was revealed to me, and her small breasts just begging to be sucked and adored by me. F*ck, I wanted her and my c*ck grew so hard so fast, I almost felt a little dizzy as all the blood just travelled south.

“F*cking hell …” I whispered.

Cecilia grabbed the edge of her shorts, pushing them far down enough so they slid the rest of the way, and I swallowed hard. It was not an over-the-top strip show, and it wasn’t because Cecilia did anything special, just her being … well, her, it was enough for me to completely lose my mind.

“Come closer,” I told her.

She seemed unsure for a second, but then did as I told her, and placed herself in front of me. I placed my hands on her hips, just feeling all of that soft skin of hers.

“Where the hell have you been?” I whispered before I leaned in and left a small kiss on her stomach.

She gasped so sweetly.

“Not far …” she whispered.

I chuckled. No, she had not been far, and yet I was only running into her now because she liked to stay out of sight. She liked to hide, but there was no more hiding. I was going to have her tonight. I was going to feel like what it meant to be fully connected with my mate and what it would be like to please her.

“No more hiding,” I said and looked up at her.

She looked at me and pushed some of her hair behind her ear.

“You won’t just give up, will you?” she asked.

I shook my head.

“I’m not really known for giving up,” I said.

She reached out and placed her hand on my cheek, and I felt calmer than ever. How did she have such power over me? I had no idea, but I never wanted her to stop. I never wanted this moment to end, because now I understood. I knew what I had been missing, and I knew what it was all the others were feeling. I even understood Kate better, and why she couldn’t live without her own mate.

“Lucian …”

The way she said my name … f*ck it made me go crazy, and I quickly turned us around, so she ended up on the bed on her back and I placed myself between her legs. I leaned closer to her and kissed her hard, and she responded back to me. F*ck, I loved kissing her. I could never get enough. I just wanted it to last forever, but I also wanted to feel her. Feel how ready she was for me. I reached between us, and her p*ssy was dripping. She might have told me she wanted me to go, but her body wanted me close. She let out a little scream at the first contact and then leaned her head back, as I started to give her cl*t the attention it clearly needed.

“You shouldn’t have run from me,” I whispered against her lips. “I could have taken care of this much sooner.”

She panted against my mouth before she kissed me again, and I started to work her hard and fast, wanting to see how beautiful she looked when she came.

“Lucian … please …”

“Please what?”

She could barely form words. She was desperate for release and I really wanted to see her come.

“Just don’t … oh, Goddess, don’t stop.”

I didn’t and soon I pushed her over the edge. She clung to me, trying to focus on kissing me, while she came. Her sweet sounds went straight to my c*ck, making me even harder if that was possible, and I was desperate to be inside of her, but I wanted a small taste too. I removed my hand as she slumped down on the bed and licked my fingers clean of her juices, tasting her sweet slick.

“You really shouldn’t have run,” I said and reached down to free my c*ck from my pants.

Cecilia opened her eyes and looked at me, and I opened her legs wider, wrapping them around me, but just as I was about to enter her, I saw something change in her. Like she was putting up this wall between us, almost like she wasn’t quite ready for this. She was still thinking too much, I realized. One org*sm hadn’t calmed those fears of hers, and leaned closer and kissed her.

“Don’t shut me out now,” I whispered.

“Just … do it,” she said like this was a chore or something.

I shook my head and started to kiss my way down her body.

“Lucian!”

But I silenced her as I went to suck on one of her n*pples. She moaned and leaned her head back, as I sucked a little harder, before giving it a last lick and then kissing my way down her stomach. I wanted her to enjoy this, not make it seem like something she had to do because we were mates, and I certainly didn’t mind getting another taste. I spread her wide open for me, so I could see all of her before I swiped my tongue through all of her wetness. She gasped and reached for me, pressing me closer to her, and I went to suck on her cl*t, playing with it with my tongue, making her grab my hair harder, the pleasure becoming more intense for her.

“Goddess! Lucian!” she called out, just as she was balancing on the edge, but then I pulled away.

She looked up at me confused and with eyes so full of desire, she wasn’t even listening to her fears now.

“W-What are you doing?”

I flipped her around, and she looked over her shoulder confused before I had her up on fours.

“Making sure you enjoy this,” I leaned down to her ear and whispered before I slid inside heaven, making us both moan with pleasure.

Never … before … had a f*ck been this good.

I had only just gotten inside of her, and I really had to concentrate on not coming already. Her p*ssy was burning hot and so damn wet, that it was easy to slide inside of her. She squeezed me tightly though, getting used to my size, and pushed back a little, wanting me to move. I grasped her hips, wanting to leave some temporary marks, as I began to move. She moaned louder and I knew she was very close already. I had kept her on the edge for a reason. I wanted to feel what it was like being inside of her and feeling her come.

“F*ck … you’re so f*cking perfect!”

I couldn’t stop myself from f*cking her harder and faster, desperate to come inside of her too, and so I reached around her and found her cl*t, moving my fingers over it, and soon she couldn’t hold back anymore. She screamed and came hard, grabbing the sheets so tightly they tore, and I quickly followed her over the edge, her p*ssy milking me from everything I had.

We stayed like that for a long time, both of us just trying to recover from how amazing that had been. I had hoped to draw it out a little longer, but Cecilia was making me lose my mind. In some way, she was the hottest little thing I had ever been with. I couldn’t explain it, but she was like a dream come true, and I didn’t even know that much about her. I had hoped she felt the same way, but when we had finally caught our breath, she moved away from me and quickly took her clothes. She went to clean up only to come back dressed again and a cold look on her face. I had fixed my clothes and now watched her a little confused.

“Now you can go,” she said.

Eh … WHAT?!

“You got what you wanted, so now you can go,” she said.

I couldn’t believe this, and it angered me so f*cking much. I had left other people’s places after a quick f*ck and others had left my place, but they had meant nothing to me. Cecilia meant everything, despite the fact I had only just met her today. I couldn’t help it. She was my mate!

“What?” she asked when I just looked at her.

“You think that was all I came for?” I asked her, standing up.

She wrapped her arms around herself and looked away in an almost guilty way, but I knew what she was doing. She was pushing me away because she was surprised at how much she liked it when we were together. It had felt fantastic and I wanted to do it all over again. I wanted us to f*ck until we were nothing but sweaty messes and then go to sleep, holding each other and waking up doing the exact same thing we did before we fell asleep. I wanted every night and every day with her. I had waited so damn long for her. I was not letting her go now.

“Isn’t it?” she asked.

I walked over to her and wrapped my hand around her jaw, making her look at me. She was so tiny compared to me, but I loved it. She stared up at me shocked, but I wasn’t hurting her. I just wanted her to look at me.

“I want you,” I told her. “All of you.”

“Lucian … No.”

“I know you’re scared. I remember what you said about falling in love with me, but listen to me, Cecilia, that is exactly what is going to happen. I will make you fall in love with me, and that is a promise I intend to keep. So be prepared. I’m not done at all.”

She stared at me shocked, and I took a moment just to memorize every little detail about her, before I turned away from her and climbed through her window again, going back home to give us both a chance to lick our wounds before the battle continued.
