Chapter fourteen

Hayley

Being speared on my raccoon shifter mate’s absurdly big monster cock wasn’t what I expected from tonight, but I have zero complaints as Jake rocks deeper inside me. He watches me with wide, awe-filled eyes, brow damp with sweat from the exertion of holding himself back.

“Oh, fuck, Jake,” I moan as he gives me what I asked for, going deeper inside me than I ever thought possible. I’ve never been a vocal person during sex, but then again, it’s never felt like this . Every cell in my body is vibrating with desire and need for my mate.

I understand now what Aunt Betsy said about knowing. Maybe it didn’t happen the instant I met Jake, but it’s here now, bright and insistent in my mind as Jake presses his lips to mine and works his way inside me with gentle but insistent pumps of his hips. There’s no confusion or voice in my head worrying about what will happen when he’s had his fill of me or when I become too needy .

Looking at Jake, I know in my soul that he’ll never get enough and he’ll move mountains to give me what I need. It’s such a foreign, overwhelming sensation that I want to laugh or cry to relieve some of the intensity of it.

“God, you’re taking me. Fuck, look at you baby, I’m almost all the way inside,” Jake groans, running a possessive hand down my stomach to rest above where he’s filling me.

“Must be magic, because I think I should’ve been tapped out an inch or two ago,” I say with a mixture of a laugh and a gasp as he finally bottoms out inside me with a grunt.

“Probably,” he replies with his own weak chuckle. “Is it okay?” Jake asks softly, brow furrowing slightly.

“Yes, it’s amazing,” I sigh. There’s more pressure and fullness than I’ve ever experienced in my life, and there’s a burn from how much he’s stretched me, but the pleasure of having him inside me far outweighs the discomfort.

We stay like this for a moment, Jake letting more of his weight rest on me now that our bodies are flush. He holds my gaze, and I can see in his eyes that the connection is as intense for him as it is for me.

“You’re incredible, Hayley,” he whispers reverently.

“So are you,” I murmur, unable to stop the tears from welling in my eyes. “Sorry if I cry a little…this is just so much.”

“Oh thank god, I was worried about seeming like a freak if I cried,” Jake says with a chuckle, and I realize his eyes are shining, too .

“I mean, you are a bit of a freak, but not because of that,” I tease.

We both laugh and he lets out a low groan as the movement makes me tighten around him. His hand presses between our bodies to find my clit and he circles it, having already discovered what makes me unravel.

Another orgasm builds, which is wild because I’ve already come three times and I usually struggle to have even one orgasm with a partner.

“Give it to me, Hayley,” Jake rasps, watching my face as it twists with the building pleasure. “I want your sweet pussy coming all over my cock before I give you my cum.”

The mind-bending fullness of Jake’s cock inside me paired with his touch on my clit and his filthy words have me obeying him. My pussy clenches around him as he holds himself still inside me and works me through my orgasm, tears spilling down my cheeks at the intensity.

“Shit, can I move, baby?” he rumbles, sounding close to the edge.

“Jake, please, please ,” I babble, even as the sensation makes me see stars.

I cry out when he eases his hips back and I lose some of the stretch of him, but he soothes me with his teeth against my throat. I might not be a shifter, but damn if having his teeth against me doesn’t unlock something inside me.

“Will you bite me?” I gasp and Jake lets out a pained groan, easing back a bit.

“Shit, Hayley, you can’t say things like that right now. I’m already way too close to blowing my load. ”

Threat of premature ejaculation never sounded so sexy. “Why? Does it turn you on to think about biting me? Because it turns me on.”

He groans again and thrusts. “You’re evil.”

My laugh turns into a shuddering moan as Jake starts fucking me in earnest, sitting up to grab my ankles and place my feet up by his shoulders. He stares down at where we’re joined, and I wish I could see what he does. “How does it look?” I ask.

“Amazing. Your perfect little cunt is taking my cock so well.” The slick sound of my wetness and slap of his heavy balls against my ass as he pounds into me is as obscene as his dirty talk, ramping my arousal up even higher. The texture of his cock rubbing inside me is unreal, and at this angle, he’s so deep that I see stars with each of his thrusts.

“I’m… god, I’m going to come again.” I’m half-delirious now, a vessel of pleasure and desire. If sex is always like this with Jake, I’m going to be in trouble. I’ll never get anything done because I’ll be too busy begging my mate to fuck me.

“Yeah? Do it, baby. Choke my cock and squeeze out all my cum.”

“F-fuck, yes .” I come at the thought of Jake filling me up. I never had a breeding kink, but now that I have my monster mate between my thighs, a lot of things have changed.

“That’s it, Hayley. Yes, fuck, such a good mate. Gonna make you so full of my cum that you’ll be dripping for days.” Jake’s thrusts become erratic as he falls over the edge with me and he does what he promised, his hot cum splashing inside me as his dick throbs and spurts for what seems like ages, until it’s dripping down my thighs and out onto the bed.

I’m panting as I come down from my orgasm, and Jake looks wrecked, gasping for breath as he shudders through the tail end of his release. He lowers my feet from his shoulders and leans forward to kiss me, the slow and tender sweep of his tongue against mine making my chest ache with affection.

“Mine,” he murmurs. “Can’t believe you’re here and you’re mine.”

“Me either,” I say honestly. “But I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Jake smiles against my lips, then sits back up, looking as dazed as I feel. When he pulls out, a gush of fluids rushes out of me.

“You weren’t kidding,” I say weakly, propping myself up a bit to look down between my thighs at the utter mess he’s made.

He gives me a lopsided grin, bringing two fingers down to gather up some of the cum on my thigh and press it back inside me. My breath hitches and desire coils in my belly, despite how sated I was a moment ago.

I lick my lips at the sight of his cock, still stiff even after coming.

Jake catches on to my interest, and his eyes go dark. His fluffy tail strokes my calf. “Hmm, I think you could use a bit more. Need to make sure I’ve properly bred my mate. ”

“Well… if you think you need to… to be sure…” I spread my thighs again as he teases my dripping pussy, already swollen from taking him but eager for more.

“I do,” he rasps, lining himself up with my entrance. “And I’ll always be a good mate and give you what you need.”

Many hours and orgasms later, Jake and I have showered and moved to his couch to cuddle and have snacks. His giant, fluffy tail is draped across my thigh and I stroke it idly, loving how soft it feels against my skin. He lets out a contented sigh that turns into a rumbling purr for a second.

“Are you purring?” I ask, surprised and amused by the sweet sound from this big man.

He clears his throat, cheeks going pink. “Yeah. Sorry if that’s weird. You make me feel so damn happy and comfortable.”

I lean in and kiss his cheek. “I like it. I’m really happy, too, so I’d purr if I could.”

He laughs and squeezes my hip. “Thank you for giving me a chance, Hayley. I know I’m not… I’m not what most people would think of as a dream partner. But I promise you I’ll be the best mate.”

“Oh, stop it,” I scoff. “You’re a total catch.”

Jake laughs, but it sounds more disbelieving than anything else. “Yeah, the freak who always says something weird and who spends his free time digging through trash is a catch.” His tone is light, but it’s clear people have criticized him about that before.

I narrow my eyes at him. “Jake, as my mate, I need you to listen to me now.”

His brows raise a little at my firm tone, but he nods.

“I know what it’s like to hear people say you’re too much, or too odd, and make yourself smaller to try to fit what they want you to be. It’s a constant struggle, and I love that you haven’t changed who you are to make people more comfortable. It makes me feel safe to be myself with you.”

“You are safe with me,” he says, and I believe him with every fiber of my being.

“Then you’re perfect.” I kiss him softly and he starts to purr again when I pull back, this time not stopping himself from making the sound.

After a minute, he gives me a crooked grin. “Would it be too soon to confess my love for you and ask you to move in with me?”

I snort, even though the thought sends a thrill through me. “Maybe a little.”

He sighs. “Damn, okay. Well, let me know when it’s okay. Because I’m all in, Hayley, but I don’t want to push you. You teased me about me biting you and I said, uh, a lot of things about… breeding. But that doesn’t mean that I expect either of those things right away. Or for a long time, if that’s what it takes for you to feel ready.”

I squeeze his hand, heart swelling at how sweet and considerate he is. I get the sense it’s killing his shifter instincts to say those things, but he’s earnest about giving me as much time as I need.

“I said it was a little soon, but I didn’t say ‘no’.”

Jake blinks at me, his mouth falling open in surprise. “You… Which part are you ready for?”

“The moving in part. I’m not attached to staying in my aunts’ place, and you’re literally right next door, so it wouldn’t impact my ability to run the bodega while they’re gone.”

“So… you think you’ll stay here when they come back?” I know Jake is trying to sound relaxed, but the sudden tension in his body gives away how nervous he is asking me this.

“Yes. I don’t want to leave. I came here to find something better, and what I found goes far beyond those hopes. I found you. So you’re stuck with me.”

Jake releases a relieved exhale. “Thank fuck. I really didn’t want to have to tie you up and keep you here.”

I laugh, but I don’t mind the thought of him tying me up.

“What about the rest?” Jake asks, swallowing heavily.

I take a moment to consider, doing my best to push aside the bubble of elation at being with Jake and deciding to move in with him. “I don’t want to have kids yet.”

He nods. “Yeah, me either.” He sounds a little relieved, which is reassuring. “I mean, my instincts really want me to get you pregnant, but they, uh, seemed satisfied earlier even when I knew it couldn’t actually happen. ”

“Is that something you’ve always been into with partners?” I ask hesitantly. I’m not sure I’ll like it if he tells me he’s always had a breeding kink, but I can’t help asking.

Jake chuckles and shakes his head. “Not at all. I’ve never come inside someone before. It’s like a switch flipped in my brain, and suddenly I’m obsessed with giving you my cum.”

“It probably did, since I’m your mate,” I say with a giggle. “I’ve never been into it before, either. But it’s really hot when it’s with you.”

“I’m glad, baby.” Jake’s voice is a little hoarse and his hand squeezes my thigh.

“Don’t say it like that.” I chuckle weakly and shove against his shoulder. “If we fuck again right now, I think I truly might die from too much dick.”

“We don’t need to involve my dick,” he says, tongue darting out to wet his lips.

“You’re a menace,” I say, squirming a little at the thought of his mouth on me again. “When I agreed to move in with you, I didn’t think you were serious about wanting to eat me out 24/7.”

“I’d never joke about that perfect pussy. I’m addicted to it. Have been since I got your panties.”

I flush at the reminder of how this all started. “Pervert. Next thing you’ll be saying is you want to steal my panties from tonight.”

“I won’t steal them, baby. But I sure as fuck want them if you’ll let me keep them. I’ll need something to keep me from coming over every fifteen minutes while you’re working to get a taste. ”

My clit throbs at the idea. “Okay.”

Jake’s fluffy ears perk up. “Really?”

“Well, yeah. If you need it, I’ll give it to you. After all, you’re my mate. It’s not a one-sided thing. I want to make you happy, too.”

Jake’s purr rumbles back to life. “You do. I’ve never been happier.”

“Same,” I whisper. It’s more than a little terrifying to be so certain so fast, but I’m going to embrace it. After all, that’s the whole reason I came to Hallow’s Cove. Yeah, I wanted a monster mate, but at the core of things, what I really wanted was to be happy. And here, with this sweet, strange raccoon shifter, for maybe the first time in my life, I can confidently say I am.

I kiss Jake, pressing all my joy and hopes for our future into his lips. He meets me eagerly in return and when our lips part, I feel him smile against my mouth.

“There is one thing that would make me even happier…” he says, humor and heat blended together in his tone.

I laugh and spread my thighs. “Alright, if you insist. I won’t keep you from your new favorite thing.”

Jake eagerly moves to kneel between my legs, knocking over a bag of chips in the process as his tail smacks into it in his hurry. As he shoves my skirt up, he gives me a blissful smile. “I’m so lucky to have you,” he says, eyes locking with mine before he swipes his tongue against my pussy. He smiles again, squeezing my thighs. “And not just because of this, even though, fuck , it’s perfect. Everything about you is my new favorite thing.”
