Chapter 17-- Cement the bond

I pulled my hand away and stumbled back. A gush of wind and rain hit me. Did I hear right? Dean shut the door and stared at me. There was no mischief in his eyes. He had another mate before me?
“I’ll get a fire started. I always keep fire wood here.”
“Are you going to explain what you said?”
“Do you want to hear it?” he asked as he wandered off to find the wood.
“Of course I do.” I wrapped my arms around myself. The rain chilled me to the bone. That and the fact my clothes were dripping wet.
While Dean walked around awkwardly trying to set up the fireplace, I kicked off my shoes. The log cabin didn’t have any chairs. I doubted there was a bed anywhere in the cabin either.
Minutes later Dean had the fire crackling in the fireplace. He ripped off his shirt then unbuttoned his belt…
“Uh…”
“What?” He turned to me as he unzipped his pants.
I blinked a few times. “Are you really going to get undressed?”
“You should too unless you want to catch a cold.”
His pants dropped to the floor and I sighed, I might as well strip too. I would have thought I had gotten used to seeing my mate’s crotch, but each time I saw the swell of it behind his briefs it sent goose bumps all over my body and blush to my cheeks.
He settled on the ground in front of the blacking fire. That afforded me enough privacy to get undressed. There was no point in keeping the soggy bra and underwear.
“Get over here.” Dean opened his arm for me.
“Shouldn’t we hang these to dry?”
“I’ll take care of that.”
Later we lay on the solid wooden floor. Tangled in each other’s naked flesh. The sound of crackling firewood and a furious storm blended together in a dysfunctional symphony.
“I didn’t think I would find my mate.” Dean started.
“Why? How did she die?”
He chuckled, “I was told she died. A month ago.”
“A month?” I sat up to look into his eyes.
“Yeah, a month. I still hadn’t found my fated mate, but I wasn’t going to take a chosen mate I always knew I was going to find you until the day I got the mark and I was told you had died.”
“Me? Are you sure, I’m not just… I don’t know a second mate?”
He ran his hand down the back of my head. “Not likely, Little Wolf.”
“Then could something be wrong. I’m not dead Dean.”
“I know, but what if you did die and came back?”
“That’s ridiculous Dean. That doesn’t happen.”
“There have been numerous incidents in the human world where people’s hearts stop and they come back to life miraculously.”
“Yeah, the human world! How common is it for wolves?”
“I don’t know babe. Think about it, something horrible had to have happened to cause you to lose your memory. Would it be impossible for you to have died?”
“I don’t know… I don’t want to think about this right now.” Another clap of thunder caused me to shudder. Dean drew me into his arms and kissed my cheek.
His lips moved to capture my lips. Soft and tender as he drew me in. Shaken by what he told me Dean soothed me with his Alpha power. I melted under him. Dean climbed on top of me and deepened our kiss.
I opened my legs and let him fall between them. Thanks to his body heat I wouldn’t freeze to death. It wasn’t just his heat keeping him close I wanted him. It didn’t matter that Dean was older than me, or ruthless and the King of a thousand Alphas.
“Dean…” I pushed him back a notch.
“What’s wrong? You want me to stop?”
“I don’t.”
He chuckled. “Are you sure?”
“Of course.”
“I’m going to assume you haven’t been with anyone before.”
I nodded.
He kissed the line of my jaw and down to my neck. “I’ll be gentle.”
I grabbed the back of his head and fisted his hair. Dean caught my hard nipple between his teeth and bit down. I let out a sharp gasp. His hand fiddled with my right nipple. The heat between my legs felt neglected I lifted my pelvis to grind against his crotch.
Dean laughed softly. “I’ll take care of you Little Wolf.”
I moaned. His cock had enlarged, yet still trapped in the binds of his boxers. Why was he so dressed when I was butt naked?
“But.” He pulled back. “I should get you back for your little stunts after the costume party.”
“I was drunk!”
“You knew what you were doing when you teased me. I was fucking hard for you.”
“I wrapped my legs around his waist and dragged him down.
“Yet, you didn’t sleep with me?”
“I wanted you sound when we did this. For when we’re joined forever. Are you sure you want this?”
“Of course I do. I want you, Dean.”
My feelings for him had escalated in a matter of days. I had gotten to the point of being jealous when another wolf brushed her busty chest along his arm. Fear sprung in me when he wanted to rush into a storm. He was a pain in the ass, but he was my mate.
Dean knelt between my legs just staring at my clit. I was literally on fire. What was he waiting for?! When his finger ran down my clit to my wet entrance I jolted upward. He gripped my thigh to keep me down. The unexpected touch sent fireworks throughout my limbs.
“I want you so bad.”
I shut my legs unexpectedly.
“What?” Dean’s brows burrowed.
“Take them off Dean or you’re getting there.”
“You really want to play this game Little Wolf?”
It was a game I couldn’t win. Not when I was sweating lust and emitting desire. Surely enough Dean stood and pulled down his briefs. His cock sprung out causing me to bad further into the floor if that was even possible. Nine inches? With the thickness of a cucumber? Alpha King was right.
“Happy?”
I sucked in my bottom lip and nodded. My voice would betray me if I spoke.
His finger slowly drove between my walls. I jolted and Dean’s hand returned to my thigh. He pushed it all the way in. It was uncomfortable having him in there at first, but as he started moving his finger in and out pleasure started building.
Dean leaned over me as he worked his finger in me. His thumb focused on giving my clit maximum pleasure. I squirmed. Something was happening and it felt like a train rushing into a brick wall.
“Let it out, Layla.” Dean nibbled on my earlobe.
That was it. I exploded. I shivered and lifted my knees. Dean only quickened his pace.
“That was amazing,” I gasped.
“You’re going to get that every day, for breakfast, lunch and dinner and everything in between from now on. You want more?”
Ugh, yes!”
Dean pulled out his finger and rubbed the centre of heat between my legs. He positioned himself between my thighs, aiming his cock on the folds of my vagina. I shut my eyes. He was going to wreck me.
“Hey, I’ll be gentle okay?”
“I believe you.”
He positioned my hands on his shoulders and lifted my pelvis. We stared into each other’s eyes as the tip of his cock penetrated. My eyes were on him, but my mind was on his cock sliding into me.
“Dean.” I cried out.
“Almost there, babe.”
“Ugh, it hurts.”
“There.”
The moment of pain came when Dean was met with resistance. He thrust forward and the restraint broke. I felt so full. Dean remained unmoving until I stopped panting. My hands moved from his shoulder to grip his arms.
“My Luna.” He kissed me.
He rolled his hips forward slowly. I curled my toes as he thrust into me faster. Dean groaned as he thrust his cock into me, faster and harder. The rain outside was drowned out by my moans of pleasure. I’d never felt more alive more connected to him. More than our moment in the bathtub.
“I’m going to explode again.”
“Wait for me, Layla. I’m almost there.”
Wait for him how? I was almost over the edge. Dean increased his speed. Ploughing his hips faster and harder to the point I could feel his balls touch my ass. I cried out when I exploded and he unleashed his load and landed on top of me.
He pulled out his cock and let it rest on my stomach.
“Little Wolf,” He breathed out.
“Big Wolfe.”
