Ally

“Would you two slow down!” Liam shouts as Lulu and I take off.

“Sorry you can’t keep up, old man!” I shout back, laughing. “Some of us want to see things before nightfall!”

“Does he always worry this much?” Lulu asks, laughing as she pants, trying to keep up with me as I drag her away from the guys.

“Since the moment he started working for me.” I grin over at her. “I love it, though.” I shrug. “Doesn’t mean I don’t make him work for it.” I wink. “Can’t let him get off too easy.”

We’ve been here for around an hour now. I knew coming here was a good idea once I saw the look of awe on Lulu’s face when we made it to the lookout point.

After taking a ton of photos and enjoying the sights before us, we decided to go for a walk on the trails.

The guys kept hovering—telling us to be careful, don’t walk there, watch out—as if we were children. I get it, some of this can be dangerous, but we’re adults. We can walk just fine.

I love that they care, but they’re really cramping the vibe.

“Over here.” I laugh, pulling her around the corner, tucking us into a little alcove just off the path.

“What are we doing?” Lulu asks, laughing. I place my hand over her mouth.

“Shh,” I hush her. She smiles against my palm, eyes dancing with excitement.

“Where the fuck did they go?” Brady growls.

“They’re going to put me in an early fucking grave,” Liam grumbles.

“Leave them be,” Nate says. “They’re just having fun.”

“Yeah. Don’t you see how happy they are? Stop hovering,” Gavin adds.

“We’re not hovering,” Liam defends. “These trails can be dangerous, and who knows what kind of people are out here. What if someone recognizes Ally and a whole swarm of people come?”

“That’s why she’s in the ball cap and glasses,” Nate counters.

“I don’t like it,” Brady grumbles.

“Neither do I,” Liam agrees.

“Oh look, they’re bonding by being overbearing mother hens,” Nate taunts.

“How cute,” Gavin joins in on the teasing.

“You two fucking suck,” Liam mutters.

“I do. But I don’t know about this one,” Nate replies. “Do you suck, Gavin?”

“Does the clit count?” Gavin plays into Nate’s dirty-minded banter.

“You two can stay here,” Brady says. “I’m going to find the girls. They're bad enough, on their own, don’t need both your shit, too.”

I move my hand from Lulu’s mouth at the sounds of their footsteps retreating.

“They’re going to go out of their mind if they can’t find us,” she whispers, looking towards the direction the guys just went.

“Let them worry. I need a little bit of time,” I tell her.

She looks up at me, licking her lips. “For what?”

“To do this.” I grin before leaning forward to kiss her. I can’t get enough of this woman. The whole trip here, I haven’t been able to keep my hands off her. I’m always having to touch her in some way. Taking any chance to get a hit of her lemon meringue pie scent.

It makes my mouth water, and I’ve been starving for hours, but it’s not for food.

She moans against my lips, lifting her arms to wrap them around my neck. I press my hips forward, pinning her in place.

She whimpers, and I’m hit with a wave of her perfume, making me groan against her lips. “You taste so fucking good, Lulu,” I pant against her lips. “You drive me fucking crazy.”

“Ally,” she whimpers my name, making my core heat.

Maybe it’s me being so close to my heat, but I’m so damn turned on right now.

No. It's not my heat. It’s the girl in front of me. She’s always had the ability to make me go out of my damn mind.

“What do you need, Lulu?” I ask, kissing her again. Her lips part for me, and I take the opportunity to slip my tongue in and over hers.

They tangle together, and my head spins. We shift positions, my knee slipping between her legs, her knee between mine.

The pressure on my needy clit makes me moan. “Fuck,” I pant heavily, placing my forehead against hers. “I don’t want to pressure you into anything you're not ready for.”

“I’m ready,” she says quickly, looking at me with frantic eyes. “Trust me, Ally. I’m more than fucking ready. I’ve been dreaming about being with you, like this, for so many years. This isn’t too fast. Hell, it’s going at a damn snail's pace. Fuck me, Ally. Please.”

My eyes widen in surprise. This isn’t the shy, sheltered girl I once knew. She’s changed, in all the best ways. I love this new side of her. I want to see more.

“I want to. So fucking badly.” I rock my hips and we both moan. “But not here. Not like this. When I fuck you, I want to take my time with you.”

Lulu whimpers in disappointment, eyes lidded with need, her lower lip poking out.

“You're killing me, baby.” I trail kisses down her jaw, stopping at her neck. She moans when my teeth nip at the sensitive skin below her ear. I’ve noticed there are no mate marks there. “Why is your neck bare?”

“Huh?” she breathes out heavily.

“No mate marks.” I suck at her neck, making her go nearly limp in my arms.

“Oh fuck,” she whimpers. “Ah,” I grin at her frazzled mind. “They wanted to. But I didn’t let them.”

I pull back.

“Why not?”

She licks her lips, cheeks pinkening. “Because I was still very much hung up on you,” she confesses. “I didn’t think it was fair to let them mark me if I wasn't completely theirs. I was planning on getting closure before letting them.”

My eyes flick between hers, gripping her hips as I force her to rock against my knee. Her eyes roll back, and this primal pride fills me at bringing her pleasure.

“How about now?” I lick at her neck, grinding her on my knee. “You want that closure now?”

“No.” She shakes her head, panting heavily. “Never.”

“Good,” I purr before biting down on her neck hard, but not enough to leave a mark.

“Oh god,” she whines, clawing at my back.

“You're so wet, Lulu, I can feel your slick soaking through my leggings.” I lick up her neck, stopping at her ear. “So fucking needy for me, aren’t you?” I suck her earlobe into my mouth.

“Yes,” she moans. “Fuck, yes. Oh god. Ally. I–it’s–oh god,” Lulu whimpers.

“Does my needy girl need to cum?” I ask, holding the back of her leg still as I move with shallow thrusts, only requiring the littlest bit of friction. I’m so damn worked up, my clit throbbing with need, it’s not going to take much to get me off.

But my main focus is this woman in my arms. Her sounds of pleasure make my head spin and my body tingle.

My nipples are so hard right now, pressing against my sports bra.

Speaking of nipples. I move back enough to pull down her sports bra just enough to make her left breast fall free. They’re so perky and perfect. “Fuck,” I moan before leaning in and latching on.

“Yes. Oh fuck. Yes,” Lulu sobs.

Sucking hard, I pull back, scraping my teeth against her areola before trapping her perked nipple between my teeth. “Shhh. Don’t want anyone to hear,” I murmur.

“I’m so close,” she whimpers softly. “It feels so good.”

I suckle on her nipple, my head spinning with need.

She is better than any drug.

Letting her nipple go with a pop, I shift us so I can place my hand over her mouth and rock both of our bodies. It’s probably not the most comfortable position, but I don’t think either of us cares.

“Cum for me, Lulu,” I pant, sweat breaking out over my brow as my body races towards the edge.

The pure need in her eyes makes me feral, the love and desperation for me hits me right in the heart.

Her pupils dilate as she breathes heavily against my palm. Then I watch as they roll back, her hands digging into my shoulder as her hips work frantically, pussy grinding against my knee.

She sobs against the palm of my hand, and I watch in wonder as she shatters just for me.

Removing my hand, I replace it with my mouth, swallowing her whimpers and cries as I rock my hips, grinding my pussy against her thigh. It only takes a few thrusts before I’m gripping her hips and moaning against her lips as I shatter, my orgasm washing over me.

Slick gushes free, and I know I’ve made just as much of a mess on Lulu as she has on me.

I don’t care. I don’t think she cares.

I’m high right now, on cloud nine. Our scents mingling together is the best fucking smell ever.

“Holy shit.” She closes her eyes, head falling back against the rock as her chest rises and falls.

“Holy shit, good, or?” I laugh breathlessly, body still humming with need.

Her eyes flutter open, and she gives me a smile that makes my heart skip a beat.

“So good. So fucking good.”

“Good. Because I’m very inclined to agree.” I laugh softly.

“I can’t believe we just did that.” Her eyes widen as she laughs in disbelief.

“I loved every second of it.”

“I want more.” Her eyes dance between mine.

I can’t help but laugh. “Later.” I press a quick kiss to her lips. “We should get back before our Alphas call in search and rescue.”

“Oh fuck.” Her eyes dart over to the pathway.

“No worries,” Nate says from around the corner. “Gavin is distracting them. But I do suggest getting over to them sooner rather than later.”

I roll my lips together, trying not to smile as Lulu gapes at me. “It’s okay.” I laugh. “Come on.”

We detangle ourselves, and I take her hand, pulling her out of our little hiding space.

“You two having fun?” Nate grins when we stumble out.

We probably look like a mess, but I don’t care. I’m grinning like an idiot. “The best time ever.”

Lulu giggles, and the sound sends my heart soaring.

“I swear to god, Gavin, if you don’t fuck off, I’m going to—” Brady growls, storming towards us, his words getting cut off when he sees us. Liam and Gavin are right behind him.

“Where the hell did you two go?” Brady growls.

Liam steps past Brady and over to us. “Ally, I love you, I really fucking do, but if you scare me like that again I’m going to—”

My heart stops, and my eyes widen. “You love me?” I whisper in disbelief. I knew he did, I could feel it for a long time, but he’s never said the words.

He blinks, cheeks heating as he realizes what he said. “I–ah–”

I launch myself at him, and he catches me with a grunt. “I love you too,” I squeal before kissing him.

He growls against my lips, meeting my kisses with the same passion as I was kissing him with. “You smell so fucking good,” he growls.

“Thanks,” I pant against his lips, kissing him again. “It’s my new perfume. It’s called Lulu’s slick.”

“Wait, what?” Liam pulls back, blinking down at me in confusion.

He looks over at Lulu, who’s giving him a beaming smile. “Hi.”

“What were you two doing?” Liam asks, brow raised.

“Stuff.” I grin.

“Sorry you missed it,” Lulu sighs sadly. “Maybe next time.”

I bite my lips together, doing a bad job at hiding my laugh.

Liam groans, tilting his head back. “You two are going to be the death of me.”

“But wouldn’t it be a sweet, sweet death?” I bat my eyelashes. “Also, you said you looooved me. No take-backs.”

Liam looks down at me with a soft expression. “Never.” He kisses me, making my head spin, before placing me back down on the ground.

“Ah, Lulu, babe? Did you pee yourself or something?” Gavin asks, pointing to her leg.

I look down and snort a laugh. “My bad.”

“You peed on her?” Gavin looks at me in horror.

“No, babe,” Lulu giggles. “No.”

“It’s slick, you dumb-ass,” Brady corrects him, shaking his head.

“Oh,” Gavin says. Then his eyes widen. “Ohhhh.”

Slipping my arm through Lulu’s, I grin down at her. “Best hike ever.”

“Hands down.” She smiles back.

Yeah, this life. This life I can get used to.
