Unleashing His Alpha (7 page)

She leaned in and kissed him, softly pressing her lips against his and feeling the tenderness of his presence and his soul manifesting itself through his gentle kiss. It was everything she wanted in a kiss and it was the only kiss she wanted for the rest of her life. There was something about it that made her feel like there was something special about all of this. There was something powerful behind it and that presence was intriguing to her.

But the mystery of who he was crept insidiously into her mind and called to her, telling her that she would have no comfort until she knew the truth about Shane. It was a silly rumor that she had read on the internet, but it was something that she longed for. It was something that she was starving to talk to him about, even if it was all a lie. He deserved to know that there was someone out there lying about him, telling these stories about him. She needed to make the dust settle on this particular topic and she knew she needed to talk about it.

“I read something about you on the internet,” she said with a softness to her voice as she was just inches from his face, her hand resting on his cheek, feeling the softness of his immaculately groomed beard and appreciating it. “I read that you were a werewolf,” she said, swallowing and trying her hardest not to sound like a fool.

The moment she looked into his eyes, she knew that this was a mistake. There was something in his eyes that spoke more to her than a volume of a thousand pages could tell her about the topic. When she looked at him, there was something there that terrified her and that she didn’t want to know. She didn’t want to know about any of this. Staring into his eyes, she could feel something cold and frigid inside of her heart take hold of her soul and hold it prisoner, ransoming it back for the sweet price of more information.

“How did you figure it out?”

“I didn’t,” she said softly, not sure if she was terrified or if she was fine with this. It was hard to tell how she felt right now. “Not until just now, actually.”

He let out a little laugh and an ashamed expression filled his handsome features, commanding his face, and it was more than she knew how to handle. As she looked at him, she knew there was truth in the bizarre statement that he was a Shifter or a werewolf, or whatever they wanted to call themselves. She looked at him and shook her head, not sure how she was supposed to handle any of this. It was like she was being told that the sky was actually purple and that she’d been seeing it a different color all of this time.

Go figure. This was when she was going to find out that the one man she could see herself falling in love with, and finding a new life with, was actually a werewolf and she couldn’t actually be with him.

She knew that all things ended, and for her, there was something about her life in particular that demanded all good things become something terrible. She looked at Shane and knew there was no way she could be this unlucky. Werewolves and Shifters weren’t real. There was nothing about any of this that was making any sense to her and she was supposed to just accept it as part of her life now? As she looked at him, she could feel something break inside of her.

But as quickly as it broke, she felt something inside of her slowly start to put the pieces together and welcome them as a whole again. After all, she was the girl that had actually learned how to read auras, understand astrology, and still tried to look for fairies any time she went into the forest.

She thought there was more to this world and she believed in something that was dangerously close to fate, that dark and terrible thought that ruined people or made them great. She wasn’t sure if this was the best thing that she’d ever heard or if this was the worst thing. As she looked at him, she wondered if he’d ever killed anyone or if he’d done anything as glorious as run with actual wolves.

What was it like? What was their world like in general? She wanted to know how many of them there were out there or how they lived their lives hiding in plain sight. How was any of this supposed to be real?

“It’s not something I ever tell anyone,” he said with an embarrassed tone in his voice. “It’s the one way to actually kill any relationship, so I tend to just keep it to myself. It’s hard to be a part of a relationship when they think that you’re some kind of Hollywood monster that could kill them in a blink of an eye.”

“Could you?” Katie asked him, feeling his warmth under the touch of her fingertips. All she could think about was how incredible his doggy style must be. God, she wanted him to take her that way. All she wanted was to kiss him and assure him that there was something inside of her that was stronger than fear, something strong enough to keep her right here.

“I don’t know,” Shane shook his head. “The only people I’ve ever actually hurt are your boyfriend and a couple of people who tried to rob me on the road. I know I have it in me, but every Shifter is taught from an early age how to handle their rage or their anger.”

CHAPTER FOUR

This was actually happening and she was meeting someone who was part of the supernatural world that she had always wanted to know more about. She smiled and kissed him softly on the lips.

“I’ll keep your secret,” she promised him.

There was something inside of him that made him feel like there was an enormous weight lifted off his shoulders. There was something inside of him that was bursting into life like a supernova going off, finally giving up everything that they would need to begin. There was something that made her feel like she was on the brink of building something incredibly beautiful. It was going to be magnificent. She was eager for everything that was going to be on their horizon together, just so long as they could have something.

“You’re the first person who’s ever said that to me,” Shane said to her. There was something in his voice that made her both excited and extremely sad at the same time. How was it that a man like him could be so lonely? How could he be condemned to a world that was so dark and so silent? She could only imagine how quiet the lonely road must be to him. If there was something she could do to help him, then she was going to more than help him.

She wanted to be with him out there when the world was dark and lonely. She stared deep into his eyes, feeling that there was something inside of him that called out to her, something that longed for her to enter his world.

“Good,” she said with a smile on her lips, teasing him and drawing him closer and closer to him. Their lips met again and she kissed him with everything she had until she felt like her lips were sandpaper and were crimson red.  She loved kissing him and she loved the feeling that it sent through her. She wanted more from him and each time their lips met, there was something like a sexual atomic bomb going off inside of her. It was more than she could handle in this moment, but she demanded more. She felt like a sexual vampire, hungry for another shot, another boost. She needed everything he could give her.

“I hope it’s the first of many firsts,” Katie said to him honestly.

“I do too,” he answered honestly.

There were plenty of monsters out in the world and there were lots of horrible things lurking in the shadows for them, but she didn’t think this was one of them. She couldn’t see Shane as the monster that the world would see him as and she knew that this was the reason their kind was hiding. This was the reason why so many of his people were lonely and isolated. It was like they were being stalked and hunted by the prejudices of man, called monsters and horrors from a bygone era that had replaced them with new, more horrifying things.

There was racism, prejudices, wars, and famines in the world that would always kill and destroy more than Shane could ever possibly destroy as he was. No, there were horrors and nightmares out there, but Shane wasn’t one of them. There was no way that he or anyone like him that could be that terrifying.

So in the end, all she could think about was the final question in her mind that needed to be answered. She needed to decide whether he was a monster that was needed to be left in the past or if he was something worth holding on to. There were people out there who suffered from real issues and real problems far worse than this. Love triumphed. Love conquered all. This was all she needed to think about.

In the end, it was a question of whether she wanted to actually fight for this and make this work, or if there was something that truly scared her and would keep her from going forward. That was what it all boiled down to and that was all she needed to know.

“Can we go somewhere else?” she asked him gently.

“I have a room upstairs,” he told her softly.

At that moment, there was something she figured out; that question she had rolling around in her mind. She knew she was going to risk it all for him. She was going all in on this. She wanted this more than she wanted anything else in her life. There was no doubt in her mind that this was the right decision. This was the only decision.

This was fate.

“Let’s go,” she said with a smile.

“You got it,” he answered with a loving grin on his face.

The party was in full swing in the lounge and she knew there was no way they would ever figure out she wasn’t there. In fact, she didn't even have to worry about Faith and Sarah; they were already absorbed in the throngs of people who were begging to sleep with them. There was something she wanted to shout to them; she wanted to tell them that something amazing was about to happen, that she was actually going to get the kind of sex and appreciation she deserved. All she wanted to do was let everyone know how incredible everything was.

Taking a deep breath, she squeezed Shane's hand and followed him through the back of the lounge where fewer people were hanging out and standing around. She looked around at the few people that were keeping to themselves and she watched them with special interest. Heading out of the lounge, she wondered how many other people were going to have this incredible of a night. How many people were going to be able to enjoy this night like she was going to? There was something about all of this that made her giddy and feel like a child.

They entered the lobby and walked to the elevator, watching the patrons of the hotel who weren’t interested in the drunken origins of the orgy that she liked. It was something she enjoyed thinking about. It really made her wonder if they wanted to go in there and get involved with it or if they were really a bunch of prudes who weren’t interested.

Who didn’t want to go hang out with a lot of slutty girls in skanky lingerie? They walked to the elevator and stood next to a group of civilized looking individuals who probably thought that Shane was no doubt with a very expensive escort. It was incredibly exciting to be in an elevator with wealthy people who thought you were a prostitute. She was overly excited about this kind of discrete and inappropriate misunderstanding.

Slowly, with painstaking and agonizing patience, the elevator rose higher and higher to the destination where she was going to enjoy everything that her mind could possibly imagine. This was something that she wanted more than she wanted life itself and she was ready to get it.

When those doors opened, she looked out at the hallway and felt like the insides of her entire body were bursting with a fireworks display on the Fourth of July. All she could think about right now was Shane’s naked body. All she could think about was his hard, perfect cock. She could already feel the strength of his fingers running over her soft, tight body. She wanted him all over her and she wanted his tongue inside of her.

Last time, they’d been fast and they’d been vigorous, but this time, they were going to take it slow and they were going to enjoy their time. She looked down the hallway and followed Shane as they made their way right toward the door.

Slipping his keycard in the lock, something made her jump inside. As she walked into the dark room, she could feel the cool air. The tension, her anticipations, and her excitement was electric and full of the power of what her imagination was watching unfold.

This was everything she wanted and this was the wish she was getting fulfilled. God, she could taste the wonders of what was about to happen right now and it made her feel like she was the luckiest girl in the world. She dropped her long pea coat in the doorway as she kicked the door closed behind her without even looking at it.

“I’m the luckiest man in the world,” Shane said in the darkness. “I’ve never felt so excited for something like this.”

“Me too,” she answered with a smile on her lips, though she doubted that there was anything that he could see. That was okay. She was going to show him just how happy that made her. She was going to show him everything that he wanted to experience. “I want you to take everything you have on off,” she said with a stern voice that was more of a command than a request.

She wanted him naked right now. She wanted to see everything he had to offer her and she was going to have her pleasure. She was going to have everything he could give her. This was going to be everything she wanted tonight. This was going to be everything that he wanted as well. This was the night the stars aligned.

This was the night that everything was perfect.

She watched him taking off his jacket and throwing it onto the chair nearby. He wasn’t wearing a tie, which made it all the more attractive to her. There was something bold and casual about him. Looking at him as he unbuttoned his shirt, button by button, she knew there was something magnificent about his body. He was wearing a black tank top under his shirt, which he tossed over on the chair, as well. When he was finally shirtless, she marveled at his body. This was the body of someone who was serious about their fitness and their health.

She looked at him and wondered how she had gotten so lucky. This was the body of a man that you saw on the front cover of magazines, the body of men who didn’t exist. There were plenty of photoshopped women out there, but there were just as many men. She looked at that exquisite body and knew that she wanted to have it rubbing up against her naked body. She wanted everything that he had to offer and she knew she was going to want more. It was the body she had been craving since he’d taken her in the booth with such exquisite ferocity and delicious power.

She watched him as he unbuckled his belt and she knew they were getting down to the brass tacks. This was what she wanted to see. Unzipping his pants, she watched as he pulled them down and stood in front of her in his socks and underwear. There was something extremely hot about a man who wore nice socks and had an even nicer pair of underwear. There were too many men in the world who didn’t really understand what it meant to be attractive and have a fashionable sense of style. This was what she wanted.

How could a man be so perfectly tailored to one woman? She wanted him more than ever. Taking off his socks, she looked at him in nothing other than his boxer briefs. God, they looked like they were painted on his body. That was something she wanted to rectify. She wanted to rip them off with her teeth. She wanted to throw them across the room.

She stood in front of him, completely ready for him as he hooked his thumbs into his underwear and pulled them down, revealing everything that she craved, pulling away the last bit of mystery between the two of them. There were no secrets now. There was nothing to hide between him and her. Of course, she still had her secrets, hidden under red, white, and black, but he’d be removing that piece by piece, no doubt. There was something about him that made her certain this was going to be everything she needed.

“Do you like what you see?” He was standing in his full glory for her.

“Oh yeah,” she said, taking a step forward and reaching out to feel his cock. Something inside of her made her want to take a hold of his cock and take it for her own. She wanted to do everything. She wanted to take a hold of that swollen, rock hard cock and put it in her mouth. She wanted to lick it, slip it inside of her. She wanted every last inch of him inside of her. Without a second thought, she touched his cock, getting to look at it without any kind of distractions. God, this was everything that she wanted. Squeezing it with everything that she had, and all she wanted was to put him in her mouth.

Slowly, she dropped down onto her knees and looked at his cock, staring at it as it hung right in front of his face. It was something that she had been craving since they had left. All she wanted was to claim this as her own. She wanted to plant a flag on it and make sure that there was no one else in the world who could take him as their own. She wanted this more than anything she had ever wanted before. All she wanted was right here in front of her. This was the best gift she could ever have.

Sticking out her tongue, she softly touched the tip of his cock with her tongue and gently licked around it, taking his head in between her lips. She wanted to take it deeper and deeper inside of her. Slowly and gently, she stuck his cock into her mouth, running her tongue down the shaft of his hard, throbbing cock and enjoying every second of it. As she took it deeper and deeper into her mouth, she pushed herself to the limit. She wanted to take him all the way, but she knew that she had limits. She’d never really been big with blow jobs until this point, but she wanted more and more for him. She wanted to give everything to him. She wanted this to be the best blow job that he’d ever experienced. Gently, she worked his shaft and ran her tongue and lips over the head of his cock as she reached up and gently, softly fondled his balls, taking them in her hand. Everything about her was his. Licking his cock and working his shaft, she wanted to make sure that she took everything from him until there was nothing left.
