At his words, I released a cry of relief. Cum shot from my cock as he pushed even deeper into me.
“That’s it, Omega. Take this cock. Lock yourself on my knot. Let me fill you up. Breed you.”
His words fueled me. I did everything he said, taking him in and tightening around him until he was spent. It was at that moment a sharp sting hit my shoulder. The urge to bite him back had my mouth locking onto his opposite side. I broke the skin in one fluid motion.
The taste of blood registered with a suddenly clear head. I gasped and pulled back. Everything was normal again.
Or as normal as it could be with his knot still pulsing softly in my ass.
“Mate,” I said, my voice steady. “You’remymate.”
Hutton smiled at me, though it was wary. “I am. How are you feeling? You seem to be more aware now. I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
“No, you didn’t. I feel… amazing. Whole.”
“That’s good. I worried it was going to be too much for you once you came back to yourself. The haze was so strong.”
I frowned. “Sorry you had to deal with me when I wasn’t at my best. The good news is that I could understand what was happening. I just couldn’t really reply in a way that made sense.”
“You don’t need to apologize to me, Omega. I was concerned, not angry.”
“Still, I feel bad that our first time was forced on you.”
His eyes widened. “Forced on me? Does this feel forced?”
The question was punctuated with a tiny thrust of his hips. Gasping, I shook my head. It felt far too good. If he kept that up, we’d be locked together even longer.
“I can feel your desire thrumming through our bond,” he murmured as he pressed a kiss to his bite mark. “Can you sense mine?”
Closing my eyes, I searched inside myself for that thread connecting us. The bond was a soft glow next to my bunny side. It pulsed with want powerful enough to have me clenching around my Alpha’s cock without thought.
He growled into my skin. “Careful, Omega.”
“You’re the one who wanted me to hunt down the bond. I was doing good before that.”
My sassing him back didn’t deter him in the slightest. His chest rumbled with a laugh that would have made my knees weak were I standing.
“Tell me more about the haze. I’ve never known anyone to go through it,” he said once he got control of his amusement.
I shrugged one shoulder. “Nothing much to say that I haven’t already. Everything made sense coming in. It was a little blurry in the way you might feel when really tired, if that makes sense.”
“It does.”
“Yeah, well, that’s the bulk of it. I felt more animalistic in that the only thing I wanted was you. It ached to resist you. Then when I got here, I needed you even more.”
“Hence the knotting.”
“Exactly. How did it feel for you? Were you close to going into rut? I’ve read it’s possible.” In my old life, there were a few Alphas who went into rut. It was a terrible experience for everyone involved, especially the Omega.
As much as I feared the idea before, I didn’t get the sense my mate would be like those other Alphas. He’d be much gentler. Even attentive if I had to guess.
“No, I didn’t get all that close. I imagine I would have had your heat intensified more. My bear was a touch restless, though I assumed it was due to knowing I'd fucked it up.”
“It wasn’t the best first meeting,” I admitted.
His eyes closed tight. “If you only knew how much I wish I could change it. My bear hasn’t pushed out of me like that since puberty. The mate bond… it was more than he could take.”
I pressed a palm to his cheek. Bright brown eyes flashed open and locked on me. His bear was here.
