Chase, who was unusually quiet, just nodded his head.
“Larken, are you taking his potion of your own free will? Do you understand what it does?” the nurse asked as she rubbed her stomach. Her little bump was showing.
“Yes, I do,” Larken said, his face solemn.
Again, Chase gave a nod, telling us all we both told the truth.
Michaella handed us the potions. “They don’t taste the best, so take it like a shot,” she grinned, “hopefully the last shot you get until a baby is born.”
“From your mouth to The Luna’s ears,” I said as I uncorked the bottle. In one swallow, I drank the entire bottle. She was right, it was rancid. “Why?” I whined.
Larken laughed before he took his first sip. A big mistake on his part. He grimaced at the taste, heldhis nose shut with his fingers and knocked the bottle back. He gagged but kept it down.
“There was no need for that taste!” He started wiping his tongue with his shirt, showing a sliver of abs.
“Um, I’m starting to get…”Uncomfortably horny around my boss and Alpha,I wanted to say.
It’s starting. I used the mating bond with Larken. Rude in company, but I didn’t want them judging me.
“Okay. Thanks for bringing those over, Michaella. We’ll check in when we can. Deke, Dalton’s left you a folder and packed all their favorite things and a ton of food. Let me know if you need anything else.” Larken took charge of the situation.
“Right,” Blake said, a grin playing at his lips. “I best get back to the office. See you in a couple of days. Take more time if you need to recover.”
“Chase,” I called before he could follow everyone else to the door. “What’s wrong?”
My boss laughed at my concern. “It’s so stupid.”
“Tell me, please?”
He rubbed the back of his neck. “Just jealous you asked Deke, okay? I thought you’d ask me.”
“Oh! I’m sorry, but Deke has his own place…”
“Yeah, and he asked me to stay and help.” He brandished the folder. “I think he found this a littleintimidating.” He grinned. “See you in a few days, Dally-Do. Have fun!”
I shook my head at the stupid nickname. “Look after my furbabies, Chasey-Choo.”
He ran to catch up with the others, leaving me alone with the itching feeling until Larken returned from seeing our guests out. I was relieved to have the house to ourselves again.
“I’m just going to put this in the kitchen, okay?” Larken held up the basket.
The intensity of the fire which flashed through me startled a gasp from my throat. From one second to the next, it was like someone had switched on the strongest wave of heat.
He was gone less than five minutes. When Lark returned, I was sitting naked on the rug on the floor, presenting my ass for him.
“Hmm, what a pretty sight!” I heard his clothes drop to the floor before he went to his knees behind me and stroked along my flank. “Thisis going to be so much fun.”
Three days later and I still couldn’t get enough of my mate. The wave was still building to its peak while I lazily rode Larken’s cock and munched my way through a pack of jerky. Larken was alternating between feeding me pieces and eating some himself. We both needed the energy, since my heat showed no sign of abating.
I rose and fell harder and faster as I felt the need swell within me. More, I needed more.
The need burning within me must have broadcast down the bond, as Larken dropped the jerky and grasped my hips. He directed my movements, hitting that spot inside me perfectly with his cock as I panted above him.
Sweat lined our bodies. We had long since given up changing the sheets on the bed. If it got really disgusting, then we would, there just wasn’t time in between each round of sex and the catnaps we were getting.
Larken’s knot expanded, tying him inside me, his length pulsed with his orgasm. He reached for my cockand stroked it until I came. Another dry orgasm. I felt completely exhausted. We’d barely had a break all day.
More than once over my heat, I’d woken to Larken already inside me, sometimes just his fingers, other times with his hard cock. In my sleep I’d been calling for him to fill me up, to put a baby inside me. My alpha obeyed my command.
