The Missing Beta

Chapter 39

~Third Person~

The air becomes thick with arousal as the mates look at each other. The only sounds in the room are their heavy breathing and the thumping of their hearts. Neither of them ever expected to be in this position, so they are a bit hesitant to proceed. The passion and desire are there and evident, but they don’t really know how to begin.

Aston gulps and pulls Katarina against his body. He lets her heat seep into his skin before he bends his head and places his mouth on her neck. He lets his tongue peek out and runs it in a circle over her skin. He uses his teeth to nibble on the soft skin, allowing his mouth to begin sucking motions. She will probably have hickeys when he’s done, but neither is worried about that right now.

Katarina’s breasts are pressed against Aston’s body, her ni.pples becoming hard peaks. She moans at the sensation on her neck and grinds her pelvis against Aston’s body. Katarina has dreamt of this moment for so many years. It took her a while to let that drink die after Aston disappeared. She’s not ashamed that the dream came back in full force when Aston came back. She spent so much time trying to deny that lingering attraction, but it was torture.

Aston’s head is fuzzy. He’d often dreamt of this in the past, and when he found out that Katarina was his mate, he knew this moment would be inevitable. He’s imagined having Katarina in every way possible, and now he can finally fulfill that wish. He doesn’t know what’s going to happen past tonight, but none of that matters. He plans to stake his claim on the woman of his dreams, on his mate.

Aston moves his hands down her body to undo her pants. His lips move up and find hers, pushing his tongue into his mouth. They moan, letting the years of built-up passion guide them. Aston is able to push her pants down her hips, but they stop at her knees. He’s too overcome with passion to take the time to rectify the situation.

He pushes her back, causing Katarina to fall on the bed with a slight bounce. Aston wastes no time shedding his shorts and tank, tossing them haphazardly. He places his knees on the best and slowly approaches Katarina.

The gravity of the situation starts to weigh on her, and she scoots back on the bed. It isn't that she doesn't want this, doesn't want Aston. She's suddenly nervous and scared. She's never given herself to anyone before and doesn't know what to do. Will it be a turn-off? Will she make a fool of herself? Will he be unsatisfied?

Hope is speaking softly in her head, trying to soothe her fears. Unfortunately, Katarina’s fears are taking over, drowning out Hope's voice to the point that it's barely a whisper. Aston's soft lips on her thigh break the dam, and her emotions flood out.

Aston backs up and sits on his heels. “What's wrong? Did I hurt you? Do you want to stop?” Katarina fiercely tries to wipe the tears from her face. She takes slow, deep breaths to try to steady herself.

“It's ju… just… well, I… I've never done this before.” As her words sink in, a smile grows on Aston's face.

“In that case, I only have two questions for you.” Katarina nods her head and focuses her gaze on him. Do you want to do this?” Katarina pulls her bottom lip into her mouth and chews on it a bit. Aston is tempted to look away because she's tempting him without even realizing it. Katarina nods her head slowly. “No, love. I need words. Let me hear that beautiful voice.”

“Yes, I… I want this.” There's hesitation in her voice, but her face is determined. Aston nods.

“Do you trust me?”

“With my life.” That’s all Aston needs to proceed. Katarina will be well taken care of.

Aston places his hands on her thighs, caressing them a bit before tightening his grasp. He pulls her to him, parting her legs and settling between them. Aston places his mouth on hers while using his hands to explore her body. He wants to do so much more and to taste every inch, but something tells him that now isn't the time for lingering. Neither of them knows how long they have until King finds them.

Aston places his hand on the bed, letting her legs rest on them at the knees. He brings his hands up, effortlessly spreading Katarina’s legs further apart. He moves his hips, making sure his di.ck is placed at her entrance. He captures her lips in a searing kiss as he pushes his hips forward. Katarina is extremely wet and tight, causing him to groan in her mouth. He stops his movement when he gets to her barrier. Aston pushes through in a swift motion, and Katarina cries out.

Aston slowly wraps her legs around his body and anchors himself on his arms. He kisses Katarina all over her face and mouth, trying to give her the time to get used to his intrusion. The pain was more than she thought it would be, and it’s a serious adjustment to have Aston inside of her. Aston’s lips on her face are distracting enough as her body accommodates his size.

“Move.” Aston understands what is being requested. He begins long and slow strokes, enjoying the feeling of her pu.ssy on his d**k. The pain slowly subsides until it becomes a dull ache mixed with a sense of pleasure. Katarina’s body arches off the bed as Aston increases his pace, slamming into her.

“I’m not going to last long. You’re too tight.” Katarina is feeling the same way. She can feel her core tightening and knows she’s seconds away from letting loose.

“Mark me, Aston.” Aston begins to kiss along her neck until he gets to a soft spot. He lets his fangs extend and sinks them into her flesh. Katarina’s body tenses, and she experiences a small explosion inside. Her body trembles, and Aston’s name keeps falling out of her mouth.

Katarina is barely coherent, but she knows that she has to return the favor. Aston continues to move in and out of her. She runs her nose along her neck, nudging him to get more room. Aston quickly complies, bending his neck to the side to permit her more access. Katarina swirls her tongue around the space that will hold her mark. She lets her fang elongate and pierces his skin. Aston’s eyes shut in response, and stars erupt behind his lids. His body convulses, and a long moan escapes his lips.
