Page 16 of Claiming the Omega (The Wolves of Sparrow Ridge)

Daniel carefully shifted to one side and slid his right hand up and under Shane's shirt, lifting it as he went.

The feel of Shane's soft, warm body was intoxicating, and Daniel ached to touch his lips to Shane's beautiful, naked chest, all soft and creamy.

Shane wasn't muscular, but he was firm in some areas and delightfully soft in others.

It was a body that Daniel would worship for a lifetime.

Shane lay very still and focused on every one of his mate’s touches.

Having Daniel’s hands on him felt incredible, better than anything he’d ever experienced before.

After moving Shane’s shirt out of the way, Daniel began to explore the area with his hot, moist mouth, placing tantalizing kisses to his chest and abdomen.

Daniel's hands were phenomenal, but his mouth and tongue were absolutely mind-blowing.

He wanted Daniel to kiss him everywhere.

Shane slipped his hand down between them and, as casually as possible, opened the snap of his own jeans and pulled down the zipper.

He was afraid Daniel would choose to hold back, and Shane did not want him to hold back.

Shane was soon gloriously rewarded for his forward maneuver.

Daniel chuckled softly as Shane wantonly began to expose himself.

He loved this little man; there was no doubt about it.

Daniel began to trail his kisses down to the lovely, hard cock currently poking him in the chin.

It was a marvelous sight jutting out from the top of Shane's briefs.

Daniel did not delay in going in for a taste and giving Shane exactly what he was asking for.

Shane thought he was going to lose his mind. He felt Daniel’s warm breath before he felt his passionate mouth, as his mate captured his hard, sensitive cock between his lips. It was a sensation like none other.

"Daniel." He moaned and dug his fingers into Daniel's long black hair, bracing himself against the flood of feelings rushing through his body, most of which he could not even describe.

Shane lost himself in the intensity of the feelings and emotions that completely swamped him as Daniel gave him pleasure beyond endurance.

Daniel delighted in the taste of his little mate, and his heart soared when Shane shouted his name in a sort of lustful delirium. He took him to the root over and over, paying special attention to the cap and eliciting sounds from his little mate that were sure to finish him.

His mate was, unexpectedly, very vocal, and it turned Daniel on like nothing ever had.

He picked up speed and pressure when Shane gripped his hair harder and began to stiffen under him.

He felt Shane begin to fuck his mouth, and although the rhythm was jerky, it was mind-blowing in the raw need that was exhibited.

He was close, and Daniel planned on pushing him over with a burst of sensations.

Shane held on tight as Daniel sent him sailing into new depths of total intimacy.

Never in his life had he ever imagined it would feel like this.

He came and came, and Daniel never stopped, never letting up until Shane began to shake and cry out.

“Daniel, Daniel.” He felt like his entire body would either shake apart or melt on the spot.

Daniel swallowed him down and took everything that Shane gave him, eager to please and intent on making this a moment Shane would remember. When his mate began to tremble, Daniel slowly finished and placed a kiss on the sensitive tip of Shane's cock before moving up and over his mate.

He stretched out on top of Shane while keeping the bulk of his weight off to the side to not crush his little man.

Damn, there wasn’t anything about this man that Daniel didn’t cherish.

Shane, the little Omega wolf, had more power over Daniel than any Alpha ever had.

He would kill for, and he would die for this man, without question.

Shane opened his eyes to see the most flawless man in all creation leaning over him and smiling. “Did you like that, baby?” Daniel asked. Shane did not have words to express how much he had ‘liked’ that, so he simply nodded with a huge, satisfied grin on his face.

"Good, my baby should always be happy." Daniel kissed him lightly at first and then deep enough that Shane could taste his own essence on Daniel's lips.

Unfortunately, before they had a chance to go further, a sound of someone approaching was heard.

Whoever they were, they were making enough noise to make their approach obvious, giving the couple time to pull themselves together.

Daniel pulled back slowly and stared briefly down into the disappointed gaze of his mate. "They're here." He said as he got to his feet and then extended his hand to Shane, helping him up.

Daniel took it upon himself to tuck his mate back into his pants and make sure he was completely covered.

Daniel draped his arm over Shane’s shoulders and pulled him tight to his side.

Shane had the insane urge to cover Daniel’s naked cock with his hand, so he did.

He felt his mate’s cock stiffen and jerk under his palm.

Daniel smiled at the intimate gesture and wished they were still alone.

But no, Shane could not be left in the company of someone so terrible as Daniel O’Hare, the bearer of harsh opinions.

You never knew when he might throw an unkind word around and hurt someone.

His wild and sarcastic thoughts stopped when their chaperone arrived.

Daniel knew who was coming; he recognized their scent as soon as they were within fifty feet. "Hello, Edgar," Daniel stated.

"Sorry for the intrusion. I was sent to make sure Shane was okay." He seemed embarrassed and looked as if he wished he were anywhere rather than there. "I'm really sorry." Daniel believed him, but it didn't lessen his irritation at being treated like the enemy.

A couple of harsh words, and suddenly he couldn't be trusted. He'd served this Pack with distinction for years, and now he was treated as a threat. It was a very sore spot that he was having difficulty coming to terms with. Finding a new pack was probably a very good idea.

Shane couldn't believe that Benjy would send Edgar after them. When would he leave them alone and let them live, for fuck's sake? Why was his brother so intent on destroying his relationship with Daniel, his mate? Why did Benjy not want Shane to have a mate?

He felt like a five-year-old who couldn't be trusted to take care of himself or be left on his own. Shane spoke up, and his anger was very evident. "You go ahead, Edgar, and we will follow." He stated.

"I'm supposed to bring you back to the Pack house, Shane," Edgar said, but did not make eye contact.

"We will follow you! Don't push me on this, man, don't fucking push me." Shane roared, and Daniel pulled him closer. Daniel felt his mate tremble with rage and realized then that he wasn't the only one suffering deeply at being kept apart.

Daniel spoke softly to him to calm him, knowing that his own anger was fueling Shane's. Thankfully, Edgar read the situation and didn't persist. He turned and started walking back to the Pack House, and they followed, several feet behind.

"I'm leaving this place, Daniel. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm leaving. I hate this fucking place." Shane said through gritted teeth. "I thought when I escaped from our last pack that finally, my life was my own, but no, now I belong to the Alpha Mate."

"Wherever you go, I will follow," Daniel answered.

It wasn't a statement; it was a pledge. Shane slipped his arm around Daniel's waist as they completed their trek back to the Pack house.

As they approached, Daniel could see the Alpha Mate and Cole, one of the other Betas, standing on the deck waiting for them.

Daniel stopped and turned to his mate. “I’ll leave you here, my presence will just make things worse, it always does.” He bent and placed a brief kiss on Shane's lips. "I love you." He said before turning left and walking away. He really missed the feel of Shane's hand on his cock.
