Chapter 10: To Say Good Morning

Samantha's POV

The next morning I woke up to Alpha Maddox's caresses on my face. I opened my eyes to see his handsome face, his mischievous smile, and his eyes on me, as if he were enchanted.

"Good morning, sleeping beauty," he said, his voice hoarse and drawn out from just waking up.

I smiled, my face flushed. "Good morning, my king." All the memories of last night were now flooding back. The memories of him and me together, entwined under the sheets, the warmth of his body against mine, his addictive kisses... I couldn't help but feel like I was on cloud nine. "Sorry, I ended up sleeping so soundly."

"You're even more beautiful sleeping, I like seeing you like this," he gently held the tip of my chin with his index finger and covered my mouth with his lips. The simple touch sent sparkles all over my body, leaving my heart warm and my skin tingling.

"I love knowing you're mine," he said, our eyes locked on each other.

I lifted my head to kiss him again, now deeper than before. I was melting for him, experiencing a love so strong I never imagined I could feel to this extent.

The kiss intensified, his mouth warm and perfect against mine, our tongues intertwining, engaging in an increasingly intense battle.

His hand caressing my bare back beneath the sheets, his other hand holding the nape of my neck to better guide the kiss and draw me closer, pressing my body against his.

"Maddox..." My breathing was becoming heavy, my hands gripping his shoulders as he trailed kisses down my neck, his lips kissing and gently sucking, his tongue licking and gliding.

"By the goddess, your scent is unparalleled... it makes me fucking dizzy," he gasped heavily, kissing my neck again, biting lightly, making me throw my head back and gasp heavily.

I was already so at his mercy that I was even ashamed that he might think I was shameless. "The sun has already risen. You must have a lot to do. I don't want to steal your time..."

He lifted his face to me, his heavy black eyes, lupine gold forming in his pupils. "What more important thing would I have to do than be with my mate?" he said almost in a whisper. That was so intimate that I got goosebumps all over.

Slowly he pulled the sheet, which I was covering myself with up to my breasts, down, revealing my naked body. "Fucking Goddess, have I told you how beautiful you are?" his voice was heavy and panting.

I smiled. "I don't mind hearing it again."

"Well, I don't mind saying it again," he said, taking my mouth again with an overwhelming kiss, then trailing kisses down my chin and shoulders, lingering as he took my breasts in his mouth, sucking and playing with them.

"Oh, Alpha..." I gasped, breathing heavily, pleasure overwhelming me, feeling my lower abdomen heave with excitement.

His hand didn't stop sliding over my body, caressing my legs and moving up to my thighs, sending pleasant shivers down my spine. But his kisses were descending further and further, his tongue tracing wet trails on my skin.

When he positioned himself where he most wanted, between my legs, he gave me a knowing look before devouring my intimacy with the hunger of twenty lions.

His hot, wet mouth making contact with my sensitive part made me let out a sincere moan. Maddox chuckled, amused, smugly, enjoying seeing how vulnerable I was to him.

"You're being mean to me..." I stammered.

"I can't wait for our mating ritual, so I can eat you up like that every single morning," he teased, then went back to using his mouth on me. There was so much thirst, so much greed in that mouth that I even doubted it could be real.

And my body grew hotter and hotter, almost boiling beneath my skin. I could only spread my legs wider and enjoy the divine sensation as he did what he so desired.

The ceiling of my king's quarters, meticulously crafted with drawings of the goddess, kings and Lunas from ancient myths, runes of protection and adoration to the goddess, was all blurred now as my eyes rolled back from the intense pleasure I was feeling.

It took me a while to reach my climax, while he had all my lower parts in his mouth. My chest rose and fell, my moans somewhat uncontrolled, making me afraid that the guards outside the door weren't listening.

Maddox lifted his body, his eyes now more golden, his mouth all wet with saliva and something else, a mischievous expression playing on his face. "So sweet, just as I expected."

"Oh, my Goddess..." I held his face and kissed him with more desire than before, my hands caressing his shoulders and back with a certain desperation.

I wanted him so badly I was going crazy, but Maddox didn't disappoint me; I gasped as I felt his size penetrating me. Slowly...entering and filling every empty corner of me, warm and steady, perfect for me, despite its overly large size, but I was so wet that it slid in and fit perfectly.

"Holy fuck, so tight..." he gasped into my mouth, eyes groggy and half-open, his hips swinging slowly, deeply. "I need you so, so bad..."

"Yes, take me... Take it all. I'm all yours, my king..." I gasped, hugging his back, eyes closed and breathing heavily.

He took my mouth again in a possessive kiss, his golden eyes ablaze, looking at me deeply, his powerful canines formed. He didn't want to look away, he wanted to see clearly the woman who was driving him so crazy.

And that only made him lose his mind even more. The position was perfect for him to thrust with more precision, so he did so masterfully. His thigh slapping against mine, the sound of the impact was loud in the room. Intimo.

My mouth opened, the moan trapped in each short breath, following his thrusts, my hand supporting myself on his neck for balance... If you asked me what my name was, I wouldn't know the answer.

"Argh...!" he groaned, his shoulders trembling, his hips tense, his hands holding my waist and thigh also tense when I felt him release, blessing me with his hot jets directly onto my womb, and then when I realized it, I was in the same ecstasy as him, my body burning and writhing.

He kissed me right after, and looked at me with a playful little smile. "Bloody hell, I love your way of saying good morning to me."
