“I don’t really like to share,” he says the moment we reach the table, taking my hand and pulling me into his lap, making my eyes fly open. He grabs me by the back of my neck and kisses me on the lips in front of everyone.
My heart hammers for a moment, wondering what the other two men will think, but I soon melt into the softness of his lips. A sigh escapes me as I lock my arms around his neck tightly andkiss him harder, letting my tongue sensually play with his.
I missed him. Spending so many hours without him makes me realise just how much I have. His scent itself feels like home. We break apart, my entire body tingling with pleasure and I bury my head in his neck for a moment to get back my breath, not missing his shaft that is poking against my thigh. I slowly get off his lap, blushing lightly.
“So…” Aaron says, as he too moves back from Monica. Liam has his gaze fixed on the table. Is it just me, or does he look down? Or lost in thought? But before I can ask him, Angela claps her hands.
“So! Monica got you a gift!” she exclaims, turning to Aaron.
“Can we order first? I’m starved,” Monica pleads. She clearly is nervous.
“Oh, of course,” Angela smirks as Aaron looks at his mate with curiosity.
“Have a good day?” Elijah asks me as he strokes my waist, sending pleasure-filled sparks through me.
“Yeah, you can say that.” My gaze flickers to his lips. “Kiss me,” I whisper.
He doesn’t need to be told twice, capturing my lips once again.
Oh, I love this man.
Ten minutes later, we’ve placed our order and Monica now takes a deep breath as she passes the bag to Aaron.
“Here,” she says nervously. Aaron raises an eyebrow before he opens the bag, pulling out the romper and baby hat. His eyebrow shoots up, and it takes him a second to realise what he is holding before his heart begins racing and his eyes snap toMonica’s, wide in shock.
“Babe, you’re… fuck yes!” He pulls her into his arms and rocks her happily. “Damn, thank you. I can’t flipping wait!” The rest of us smile, watching as Monica hugs him back.
“So, you’re happy?” she asks softly.
“Hell yeah, I am!” he answers, kissing her passionately. Elijah smirks.
“To the future Beta, right?” he says, raising his glass of Coca-Cola. The rest of us laugh, raising our glasses, as Aaron keeps showering his mate with kisses and whispering in her ear. Liam smiles and he appears to be much happier now.
The food arrives shortly after and we carry on laughing and joking as we eat, listening to Angela complain about me not being into shopping.
“Seriously, she doesn’t understand shop before you buy!” she complains.
“You can do that with online shopping,” I point out, eating some of my steak. Forcing my thighs together as Elijah tries to pry them open, making my stomach knot with excitement and desire as I try to focus on my friend’s words.
“No, online shopping, you can’t just put it back,” Angela retorts.
“You can, free returns remember?”
“But all that waste of plastic packaging! Just go in-store and that dress you ended up finding was-” I reach over and clamp my hand over my friend’s mouth.
“Let’s keep the dress a surprise,” I remind her. Her and her blabbermouth. Elijah smirks.
“Well, I’ve got to coordinate. What colour?” he askscuriously. I raise an eyebrow.
“Nice try. Wear black, you can’t go wrong.” I cup his face and kiss him softly. It feels good not having to hide in front of everyone. His smirk grows.
“Sure. Colour me intrigued. You look good in anything and nothing.”
Angela and Aaron whistle at that, making me roll my eyes as I pop some fries into my mouth.
“Let’s just say the dress is gorgeous,” Monica says, smiling gently.
“Mm, I’m sure it is,” Elijah replies, pulling me close and kissing my neck. “I can’t wait to see you in it.”
