All while thinking of the night and Cillian.Has he gotten any closer in determining what happened?
I’d ask him, but I didn’t want to interrupt him. Not yet, anyway.
Now that I knew how he really felt about me, and how he considered himself to be unworthy of an Omega, I was determined to fight for him. To fight forus.
So if he tried to push me away—which I had no doubt he would—I’d chase him. I’d give it my all. And if he still refused me…
I swallowed.
I… I didn’t want to consider that outcome. Not yet. Not now.
Forcing the thought from my mind, I cleaned up the kitchen while the sun rose outside. No way was I going to sleep anytime soon. I didn’t even feel tired. Which was strange, as I’d barely slept yesterday.
What I needed to do was relax.
I glanced at my nest and beyond it to the nightstand.That’s one way to relax, I thought, shivering as I pictured the toy in the drawer.
But after feeling Cillian’s knot, the way it pulsed heatedly against me…
My throat worked once more.
Yeah, no. No toy. But maybe a bath.
Thirty minutes later, I found myself lounging in the tub filled with my favorite salts, and still thinking about Cillian’s cock.
I growled.
The pent-up need I felt for him had been stoked to a roaring fire in that shower, only to be instantly doused in ice water upon Benz’s arrival.
However, the flames licking through my veins were reigniting now that I was alone with my thoughts.Thoughts of Cillian. His long, muscular form. Naked. Wet. Aroused.
I closed my eyes and pictured all the hard lines of his exquisite form, the little dimples by his hips, the defined planes of his abdomen, up to his impressive pecs.
Oh, who was I kidding?
I wasn’t looking up; I was lookingdown.
At his knot.
Throbbing.
Beckoningmy touch.
I wanted to wrap my hand around him and stroke. Slowly. Memorizing the path.Owninghim.
My Alpha. My wolf. My Cillian.
You can try to run, but I’ll chase you,I warned him, aware that he couldn’t hear me here because he was probably still in Glacier Sector.You’re meant to be mine, Alpha. None of this “unworthy” bullshit. Mine. Mine. Mine.
Only, he wasn’t here for me to growl at. Yet his scent was everywhere. It was so strange because he’d never been in my home before. However, I swore I could smell him here.
He’s embedded in my skin. In my heart. In my damn soul.
Oh, but how I wished he were embedded in me somewhere else. Somewhere between my legs. I moaned at the thought, my body inflamed all over by the prospect.
I’d been on edge all day, the other Omegas barely distracting me from the yearning deep within me. A yearning Cillian had awoken with a vengeance after pinning me to the shower wall.
Stars, I’d been so close to exploding. So close to experiencing Cillian’s Alpha touch.
