LOGINAUSTIN
This must be a dream. It had to be.
I wasn't sure if the kiss was what stunned me more or the fact that she agreed to get married to me. To be my mate.
I blinked a few times. More times than I should have but who the fuck wouldn't? The love of my fucking life literally said yes before I could even ask her. If that wasn't hitting a jackpot, I didn't know what was.
"Ruby…" I want to do it again. "You agree. You agree to be my wife and mate…" I fucking want to kiss you again. But I had to be sure this wasn't a dream.
Goddess please.
I said a silent prayer to myself and waited for her to speak. She didn't. A blush painted on her face, and she nodded.
"Holy shit. Is Ruby fucking Mercer shy right now?" I couldn't help but chuckle. This was a side of her I had never seen and I had to admit that it was fucking adorable. I'd love this side of her everyday of my life. I'd do anything to keep her happy.
My palms were sticky with sweat. Beads formed on my forehead and it wasn't even hot out much less inside the house.
She rolled her eyes and pouted her lips. Those fucking lips I'd been dreaming about. "Yeah, go ahead and ruin the moment." A frown followed on her face and panic surged in my chest. She threw her legs, ready to leave the bed but I caught her hand before she could and pulled her to me.
She landed perfectly on my laps, gasping at the contact. Blood rushed through my body. Butterflies taking flight inside me.
Fuck she's beautiful.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I've just never seen you blush and because of me too." My voice was low, in a whisper. She kept her eyes down, that red patch reappearing on her cheeks and I couldn't stop myself from pecking them.
That was when she turned her face. That was when she looked me in the eyes and I imagined my future in them. Just me and her and our pups.
I want three.
I adjusted her on my thighs, turning her so that she was straddling me now. My eyes dropped to her lips, and I unconsciously ran my tongue over mine. My hands went to play, the right landing on her waist and the left on the back of her neck.
I pulled her to me, pressing my lips onto hers in another kiss. Slower, intentional and more in my control.
"Mine…" my wolf cried. Ours indeed.
I pulled away for a second to look at her again. I still couldn't believe this was happening.
"You have no idea how long I've waited to kiss you." I started. My fingers gripped her waist firmer. "You have no fucking idea how long I've wanted to make you mine. Are you sure about this? Because once we get married and I mark you, there's no getting rid of me." I needed her to know what she wanted. She had to understand the gravity of the situation.
I might have been a brother to her in the past years. But being mine meant something deeper. And I would kill to protect what was mine.
Ruby cupped my face, her eyes telling me that she wanted this just as much as I did.
"I wouldn't kiss you and ask to get married if I didn't want to, Austin. But I'm afraid once you find your mate,"
I kissed her again. Strong. Desperate.
She didn't know. She didn't have to.
"I only want you." keeping my lips just an inch away from hers, I continued. "There will never be anyone but you."
Heat rushed through my body. Like it had for years. Except this time, it was hotter. It caused my blood to boil but for all the good reasons.
My groin got hard in an instant, and I knew she felt it. Because her breath hitched. The hot air hit my lips and I could help but moan. She was messing me up.
Ruby did another thing I never thought she'd do. She gyrated her hips in a circular motion, lust burning in those eyes.
Fuck me.
"Ruby…" my tone was warning. The path she was leading to could be dangerous. And if she wasn't ready, she'd only regret it.
She shut me up, planting her lips back on mine and she continued to grind against me. Until she pushed my body onto the bed, remaining on top of me.
I didn't stop her. Or was it that I couldn't because the fucking sensation she sent through my body was fucking surreal.
My Ruby moaned against my lips. And I had to divide my attention from my cock, to her moans to devouring her fucking mouth.
Her mouth was opened wide for me, allowing me to have access to her mouth and I fucking let my tongue and hers explore each other's worlds.
First kiss and a hump.
It was a great fucking day.
And it was ours.
She sucked on my tongue like a woman with experience. The thought sending a heat of anger through me that she got to be with that bastard before me. But it was okay. She was mine now. And mine she would always be.
Faster her humping got, faster the pleasure built. And soon the both of us were moaning low but heavily.
I had both hands on those fucking cheeks, they were softer than I imagine. And fuck did they feel great.
I held her tightly, retuning a hand at the back of her neck when she tried to pull away, no take a breath I assumed.
One breath was all I allowed before my mouth was back on her again.
"Austin? Ruby? You guys still in here?" My father's voice interrupted before we both could reach.
Ruby froze, snapping back to reality. She looked at me with horror, then at the door before me again.
Oh no you don't.
I could read her mind. I had been in there the second I entered this room and I knew exactly what her thoughts were.
And right now, she was about to let my father ruin the moment.
"Don't move. He won't come in if he doesn't hear a sound." I whispered to her, keeping her in place. With her legs still spread on top on my cock where her clit rubbed against me through her clothes.
She struggled against me for a moment and my eyes darkened.
I flipped us in a flash, and silently too. Her eyes widened in shock, panic still present.
I didn't care. I went to work. My humping silently against her body, working my hard cock on her pussy.
"Austin…" she mouthed, and I smiled.
"I want you to cum for me mate. I won't stop until you do. So cum for me."
Then I resumed kissing her. Not her lips though. I went for her neck, sucking and nipping at her skin until I found her sweet spot. My girl almost moaned out loud.
She covered her mouth with her hand and gripped my hair with the other hand.
That's it baby.
I felt pressure in my groin begin to build and I knew I was close. And so was she. Because she got desperate.
Father knocked a few times, but didn't push the door open. I for one didn't give a shit if he saw us like this. He knew my feelings and intentions for Ruby anyways. He'd known for years.
Ruby and I came undone after some time. Cum spurt in my pants. I bucked against her a few times as she shook under me.
That felt good. If it had been the real deal, then I'd have given her my first time.
TROYRuby's head was turned away from me. She didn't want to look at me. And the way I saw it, she was practically hugging the door just to create more distance between us.When I'd taken her to the car, she absolutely had no problems sitting at the back. She was my mate, I could drive us but I was no fucking chauffeur."Passenger seat baby…" I warned, pulling the door open for her because that was what gentlemen did for their wives. They called it the bare minimum. Something that should come naturally for me to do.Well here I was, waiting for her to get in and she did with a bit of an attitude.I sighed and shut the door before walking over to the driver's side while Chris took the back seat. Maybe that was why I didn't want Ruby there. With him. Away from my touch that I'd make sure she felt every bit of later.And the man knew to keep his mouth shut. He was used to saying snarky and cocky shit, but not now.When we got to the border, I had two things in mind. Get the vial for my w
RUBYMy heart skipped a beat. Not only that but it lurched in my throat, threatening to force its way out of my mouth.Alana. I'd wondered where she was and why she wasn't at the pack. Why Troy hadn't married her yet. Over the years I'd think about them and assumed they were happily married and had a spread of pups.Until he showed up claiming they never tied the knot.And now, I wanted to know why.But if she was here, why was she asking to meet with him when she could walk right in.It's not because of the barrier is it?That was possible but only for an outsider who didn't belong in Ironclaw. Pack members could easily access the environs if they wanted to. In and out.Troy turned to me, looking pale. A hint of something dark following his paleness. What was going on?"Alpha?" His Beta called after him. He didn't look back nor did an answer come from him.The way he looked at me, I gasped a little, he couldn't possibly be seeking permission could he?"My Luna…""Just go…" I breathe
TROYRuby's words rang in my ear. The absence of even the slightest trust could not be seen in her eyes. She thinks I stole it.My grip on her loosened and I allowed my legs to move back a little. I needed the space. Air to breathe. My mind was a pool of mud right now and I had no ways to defend myself or my father.Not that that fucker needed me to do it for him. If he was guilty. He was guilty on his own."Now isn't the time to quiet, Troy. I gave you the benefit of doubt when I called Austin first." Fucking fuck.Here I thought she called him to spite me. To let me know that no matter what, she would still choose him. But now, knowing that it was for a whole different reason, I felt like a fucking fool.I'd actually wished that was the reason, I didn't think I'd ever wish that but now, she should have made me jealous. Then I'd have a reason to act out."I…." My words faltered. My words never faltered before. Ever. "My father, he gave it to me. I didn't know, Ruby…" Good, the words
RUBYI was wet. How the fuck did I let myself be turned on by this asshole? It was a question I had no answer for no matter how hard I tried to ask myself.Something was wrong. With me. With him. All of it.And the audacity of him to say that he didn't say when I was going to get the antidote. I should have known. I face palmed myself, pacing in our bedroom.I thought I'd never have to return to this place again. Yet here I was. I'd spent years running and planning a life away from where just to be forced back to it.I clutched the collar of my dress, as though it were my heart. I didn't know who to be mad at. Myself for not listening to Austin and keeping away from Troy or at the asshole himself for ruining my life a second time.My mind traced to Austin. His brokenness that mirrored mine. The moon goddess must be cruel to let Troy and his father succeed in tearing us apart.And my body, the traitor had the nerve to feel something out of a kiss with the monster?Yeah, something is de
TROYOne year was giving Ruby a free card at rejecting me and leaving. But I already hated myself for forcing her to marry me in the first place even though I didn't show it.But when she hit me with her having conditions, I felt blood almost drain from my face. I didn't like this. And I had a feeling it was something inconveniencing. "You're not supposed to have conditions, Ruby." I kept my voice steady. I watched her chest rise and fall, she was breathing hard. And that meant one thing.She's pissed.But she didn't know though. It was my way of keeping her with me. A year was more than enough for me to come up with other ways to permanently keep her by my side. She also didn't know that I was in a hurry to give her the antidote. I hated the red mark on her. It was the color I would have loved it to be.Reddish pink from my bites. Little hickeys here and there, all peppered on her skin so that every fucker knew she was taken and who exactly she fucking belonged to.But instead, the c
RUBYI didn't know how to feel. Not at first.Seeing Austin's broken look though, I felt something jab my chest, pushing past my flesh and ribs and attacking my heart. And it cut through. Painfully.I felt trapped, in a prison I couldn't get out of."Tell him to leave. Tell him you don't ever want to see his face again or I swear to the goddess, you'll never get your powers back." Those words hit more than a turnado. Weight heavier than a ton.I look at my hands first. They were the literal definition of bound and caged. My heart squeezed in my chest. I turned, unable to breathe facing the man who was supposed to be my mate. My life partner. And I said the most cruel words to him. I told him to leave. I told him I was Troy's now, exactly what Troy wanted me to say."Ruby, don't do this, please. I love you. We can fight this…" My eyes watered, the streaming streaking down my already wet face. I shook my head and took the most painful step back closer to Troy. Austin didn't know what wa
