The thought brought resolve, but his wolf was not satisfied. His wolf wanted to hunt down those who hurt Benjy and make them pay. His wolf continued to pace, believing that the threat to his mate remained as long as those wolves still breathed.
It was the moment when Benjy looked up at him with a sad and fearful expression in his eyes, one that begged for love and acceptance, that Victor let go of his resistance. He dropped his arm, so Benjy rested on his forearm, and then he dipped his head and took the kiss he'd been yearning for since the moment he had first touched this lovely little man.
Benjy eagerly opened for the kiss, his need for this man overruled everything else in his mind. He forgot his fear and reveled in the sensations that were waking up to this man, this Alpha wolf. He was scared out of his mind, but he couldn't stop because he wanted it all.
Victor placed his hand, gently on Benjy's aching member. He then slowly applied a delicious pressure that sent dizzying pleasure through his body and set his already hard and leaking cock to throb. Benjy thought he would come in his pants if Victor continued.
Their eyes connected and held while Victor unsnapped and lowered the zipper of Benjy's jeans. He reached inside and squeezed his hot, silky-smooth cock, and began a slow stroke of exquisite longing. Benjy moaned out a ragged breath as his hips sought to find friction, joining the rhythm of pleasure stroking root to top over and over.
"More." He gasp and registered the smile from Victor. Victor said something to him, but he was too far gone to hear. Just the sound of his voice, coupled with the pressure on his dick, soon sent Benjy over the edge.
Victor maintained his hold on Benjy's gaze as he brought him to the threshold and then backed off to see the hunger spike in his mate's eyes. He asked for more over and over, and it was an amazing rush. He felt Benjy's entire body tremble and knew he needed to provide, so he latched onto Benjy's lips once again, drinking in the beautiful lustful sounds as his mate came apart in his hands.
Black spots danced in his vision as Benjy arched and came harder than he could ever remember. He shot stream after stream over Victor's hand and his own groin. The act wrenched everything out of him and left him feeling mentally, emotionally, and physically spent. He lay there in his Alpha's arms, wondering with anticipation what would be next.
With Greg, he never allowed Benjy to come first, and sometimes he never allowed Benjy to come at all. He would finish and then leave. To his utter astonishment, Victor brought his hand to his mouth and licked the spent seed from his fingers with a wicked smile on his face. It was so erotic that Benjy felt himself getting hard all over again.
"So sweet, so perfect," Victor mumbled before taking Benjy's lips in another deep, possessive kiss. Benjy took a risk and reached up and again threaded his fingers through Victor's hair, holding him close as he accepted everything his Alpha demanded.
Victor eventually pulled back and once again locked his gaze with Benjy. “You never have to cower from me, you never have to look at the floor, you are my mate, you look me inthe eyes.” The statement went to the heart of everything Benjy had hated and feared regarding the inequality of the powerful and the weak. He looked at his mate and saw the sincerity and concern in his eyes. This Alpha was kind and fair he was almost sure of it.
“Is this real? Please don’t play games, just tell me the truth.” Benjy voiced the anxieties of his heart and prayed that Victor was real and telling the truth.
"We are mates sweetheart. I don't know whether or not mates were valued in your old Pack, but in my Pack they are sacred. Nothing is allowed to come between two individuals who are destined by Fate to be mates. This is real, and you need to understand that I will never let you go." Victor punctuated that statement with a hard, demanding kiss. Benjy could not find the words to respond. He simply nodded his understanding.
Victor took his handkerchief and cleaned Benjy's cock before tucking him back into his jeans and fastening them. The act was so erotic that Benjy groaned wantonly when Victor pressed him back inside his jeans. Victor smiled knowingly and dropped another quick kiss to Benjy's lips. He kept Benjy on his lap with his arm securely around him. "What does this mean?" Benjy's question came out more emotional than he would have liked.
CHAPTER FOUR
“It means that you move in with me, I claim you, and you become a member of the Sparrow Ridge Pack.” It was basic to all mated pairs and expected, so Victor was a little taken aback by Benjy’s shocked expression.
“But I don’t know you, and you don’t know me, and I have a brother who depends on me.” Benjy began to ramble nervously. “And what if your Pack doesn’t like having a male Omega wolf as your mate?”
"I don't give a fuck what they like or don't like, my personal life is my own, and my mate comes first. If they don't like my mate, they can get the hell out of my Pack." His tone was harsh and final. "I need you close, baby, so how about you agree to come home with me, for now. I won't make any demands upon you until you feel we know each other well enough. Also, your brother is welcome in our home. When you decide the time is right, I will claim you and present you to the Pack as Alpha Mate."
They were just a loose suggestion to ease his concern while in the back of Victor's mind, he was angling for ways to speed up each of his offers. He could wait, but not for long, and he had his suspicions that Benjy wouldn't be able to wait long either.
The mate pull was powerful and would not be denied. But for now, he just wanted to put Benjy’s mind at ease and let him make his own choices, even if they were being slightly manipulated. He watched his mate’s face as he considered all of Victor’s words.
“Okay, but will I be a prisoner?”Benjy asked still not sure of his position.
"No, never," Victor assured. He stood up with Benjy still in his arms and headed for the front door, which was hanging slightly from its hinges.
"Wait, I need my things, and I have to wait for Shane and explain what has happened." Victor did not answer him until they were outside, standing before his black SUV.
"I'll have one of my men gather your belongings and cancel your rental. He will also wait for your brother and bring him to the Pack House." He sensed Benjy's hesitance and added. "It will be my brother Edgar who speaks with Shane. He is kind and soft-spoken. He will treat him gently, and when Shane arrives, you can finish the explanation. For now, I need you with me, in my home, my wolf demands it." With that, he placedBenjy in the passenger seat and buckled him in before rounding the front of the vehicle and taking his seat behind the wheel.
Benjy thought about texting his brother and giving him a heads-up, but he feared Shane would misunderstand and try to run or hide, which would just make things worse. He wasn't completely sold on the fact that this Alpha would keep him long term, but for now, he needed to stay. His wolf would not let him rest if he tried to leave the handsome Alpha, his true mate.
His wolf was antsy and wanted the Alpha’s comfort and support. This Alpha did strange things to his body and emotions, stirring things that had been dormant and bringing new sensations to life. He hungered, absolutely hungered for his touch and his affection and every minute became more intense.
He thought of his relationship with the Alpha's son, Greg, and what a disaster it had been. Greg hid his sexuality from his family and the Pack, so he openly bullied and abused Benjy in public. But when they were alone, he was all sweet and apologies. It wasn't until the end when Greg showed his true colors that Benjy realized what a dolt he'd been. Trusting that man had nearly killed him and Shane.
He had actually believed the stupid lies that Greg had told him. Believing that they would make a life together in time, Benjy just needed to be patient. Yeah, patient until the day Greg lead the death squad to Benjy and Shane's front door. His secret turned out to be more valuable than their lives.
Would Victor prove to be the same ego-driven asshole? Victor was his mate and mates had an innate bond that could not be resisted. With that in mind, Benjy understood he had but a whisper of hope that Victor would be his forever love, and he would have a life here with him. He wanted it to be for real. This Alpha made his blood run hot and his heart beat out of his chest. He was so handsome and had an unparalleled sex appeal. He kept stealing glances at him, marveling at such masculine perfection and tried to push the doubt from his mind.
They drove for about twenty minutes before Victor turned right onto a gravel drive. It wound its way for about another five minutes before ending at the open expanse of a large, two-story, stone house with a wraparound porch. It looked old but stately, and numerous smaller homes were scattered around the area. It was set up like a small community, set apart and self-sufficient. It was well kept and had a pleasing design. With that said, Benjy knew that it was pack lands, and he was now completely under the rule of this Pack and he felt a familiar tightening in his gut.
