Alpha King’s Wolfless Mate by Scarlett Higgins

Chapter 108

**Nora POV

I was dozing off when Blake finally came into the bedroom. Through my sleepy daze, I heard the door open and his soft footsteps pad into the room. It had taken a long time for my intrusive thoughts to quiet enough for me to relax.

I was torn between wanting to rouse myself and talk to him and knowing that I should get some sleep. I waited until he had undressed and climbed into bed to speak.

“It’s late.”

“I know,” Blake said softly.“Why areyou still awake?”

“Couldn’t sleep,”I muttered.“Toomuch on my mind.”

I gasped in surprise as Blake pulled me into his arms and nuzzled my n*eck. The feeling of his bare skin against mine sent desire spiking

through me. “Anything I can help with?”

“A distraction might do the trick,”Istated suggestively.

Blake chuckled and nipped my shoulder lightly. The sharp sensation made me shudder. He rolled us so that he was on top of me. I wrapped my arms around his n*eck and pulled him into a k*ss.

We were both tired, and our movements were unhurried. The gentle glide of his hands down my sides sent warmth flowing through me. Blake pulled my pajamas down and carelessly tossed them aside.

I dragged my hands down his back, letting my nails scrape gently across his skin. Blake shuddered and grabbed my hips. He pulled me closer and I wrapped my legs around him. I bit my lower li p as Blake pushed his coc k into me.

No matter how many times we had S*x, the stretch of being filled always felt incredible. I moaned

against his shoulder and pulled him closer.

I ground my hips into Blake’s and moaned wantonly. He growled at the sensation and thrust his hips to meet mine.

He set a steady, powerful rhythm as he moved above me. I held onto his shoulders, keeping myself anchored to the moment. It would be easy to be overwhelmed by the pleasure rapidly growing within me. I didn’t want this to be over too soon.

Blake and I had the opportunity to be intimate less and less lately. I wanted to savor it. I rolled my hips with his.

Blake was growling softly and his movements were picking up speed. It seemed like he was feeling just as overwhelmed as I was.

“Slow down,”I moaned.“I want tofeel you more.”

I felt him sh udder and he gripped

the sheets beside my head. “Hearing your voice like that isn’tgoing to slow me down,”he muttered.

I felt my face heat up at his words. Did he have a thing for my voice? I dug my nails into his shoulders and pulled him closer.

I pressed my l*ps to the shell of his ear and whispered.

“Do you like my voice like this?”

Blake shuddered and slammed into me.

It was hard to describe the feeling that came over me when I realized just how much my words affected him. I threw my head back and moaned as Blake’s thrusts became powerful and almost frantic.

“Why?”I asked weakly.“Why doesit get to you?”

“Keep talking,” he breathed.“I lovehearing how wrecked you are for me.”

He was gripping the sheets so hard that I worried he might tear them. Even with the obvious arousal he was feeling, Blake was being careful with me.

I adjusted my legs so that I could pull him in deeper on each thrust.

“Just for you,”I said.

I sounded strange to my own ears. My voice was rough and low as I struggled to articulate my thoughts through the pleasure that was flooding my mind.

He growled again. This time, I could feel the sound vibrate through his chest. I was so close to orgasm. I knew that Blake couldn’t be far behind me.

“Damn right, just for me,” he said.He lifted one hand from the bed and cupped my chin. He gently turned me to face him.“You’re mine.”

“All yours,”I agreed.

My legs were shaking already. I was so close to the edge, I just needed a little more. Blake k*ssed me roughly. I returned the contact eagerly.

When he pulled back, he hovered close enough that I could feel his l*ps brush mine as he whispered. “Look at me.”

My nerves were buzzing and I felt completely overwhelmed, but the tone in Blake’s voice made it clear it was an order. I forced my eyes open and gasped when they locked onto his. His pupils were blown wide as he stared directly into my eyes.

I shuddered beneath him and tightened my grip on him.

“Good girl,” Blake breathed.“Don’tclose your eyes.”

The second his words reached my brain, my entire b*dy went stiff as I reached my orgasm. I couldn’t breathe. My mouth was opened in a silent cry of pleasure as I watched

Blake’s dark eyes.

His l*ps were parted slightly as he panted. His speed didn’t falter, he just kept moving. I arched my back and a weak cry forced its way out of me as my entire b*dy started to tremble.

I’d never felt an orgas m like this. It was almost too much for me to take.

Suddenly, Blake went deeper and low moan rumbled out of him. I could feel him pulsing inside of me as he finished.

Everything went still. It felt like an eternity before Blake’s trembling arms gave out and he collapsed on top of me. He moved to roll away immediately, but I wrapped my arms around him and held him close.

I wasn’t ready to let go of him just yet, and his weight was oddly comforting. He let me hold on for a few seconds, then pushed himself up onto his forearms and grinned

down at me.

“Did that help?”Blake askedbreathlessly.“Do you feel more relaxed?”

I nodded, unable to find the words to respond.

Blake rolled to the side and reached for me. I wrapped my arms around him and sighed in contentment. It took a few seconds for our breathing to even out, and when it did, I felt heavy and sated.

“I love you,”I muttered softly.

Blake pulled me closer and k*ssed the top of my head.“I love you, too.”

His hand settled on my stomach and I felt his b*dy relax beneath me. He wasn’t asleep yet, but it wouldn’t be long. The comfortable fog of sleep was settling over me, too.

The weight of his hand on my stomach started my mind down a

different path. The possibility of getting pregnant was one that had entered my mind more than once. Blake and I had briefly discussed having children and I knew that he wanted them. I did too, if I was honest about it.

But it wasn’t something that we could pursue at the moment. It would be a terrible time to find out that I was pregnant. We should probably be more careful.

I couldn’t handle carrying a child with everything hanging over my head right now. If one thing went wrong, I could lose everything.

If the co uncil followed through on their threats, I could be forced to relinquish my position as the Luna. If that were to happen, the expectation would be for Blake to take another queen. I didn’t think that he would do that, which would then put his reign at risk. The council could destabilize everything.

That was, if Graham didn’t invade and destroy the pack first. What he hoped to accomplish, besides gaining power, was still a mystery. Did he want to merge the packs? Was he going to eliminate our pack and move Lanecreek to the city? There was no way we could know.

No. I couldn’t handle the pressures of motherhood on top of everything right now.

I would do everything that I could to protect this life that Blake and I had built. We had accomplished so much in such a short amount of time. The pack was thriving under our joint leadership. I wouldn’t let the council or Graham take that away.

I was going to do everything in my power to make this a safe and happy place to live, so that when the time was right, I’d be ready.
