Chapter Sixteen

Charlie

Our week had been absolutely wonderful. I honestly hadn’t intended to take the entire week off, but when it had been offered, I wasn’t going to say no.

Looking back on how much being able to spend the week with Silver had meant to both of us, I was incredibly thankful that my boss thought enough about how much it would impact our relationship.

Which was why I was not only enjoying a very lazy Friday morning in bed with my sexy mate but was even considering waking him up in a very seductive way.

I didn’t have to do more than roll toward Silver before his eyes popped open. I wasn’t sure if it was a good thing or not that my mate seemed to be such a light sleeper. I wasn’t complaining though, and when I smiled at the sexy man, he gave me a sleepy smile in return.

“Why are you up so early?” Silver asked.

“It’s not early. According to your alarm clock, it’s actually almost ten. I wouldn’t call that early.”

“No.” Silver reached up and rubbed his face. “What did you want to do today? It’s our last free day of just the two of us.”

“We knew it would happen eventually.” I rolled to my back and stared up at the now somewhat familiar ceiling. “I was thinking about trying to wake you up in a sexy way, but apparently, all I have to do is roll toward you and you wake up.”

“I wake up several times in the night. You would be correct when you say that all you have to do is roll over and I wake up.” Silver reached out and ran his fingers through my hair before he copped the side of my face.

“I am not used to sleeping next to someone.” Silver gave me a sleepy smile.

“Although you would think that I would be more used to it at this point.”

“But we have only been mated for a week and a half. Is that long enough to get used to sleeping next to someone?” I asked.

“It’s long enough to fall in love,” Silver said as he continued to rub his thumb across my cheek.

When he said that, I suddenly felt short of breath.

Was he saying what I thought he was? “I’ve definitely fallen completely in love with you, Charlie.

That was certainly the easy part for me.

You make it incredibly easy to love you.

” Silver gave me another smile before he moved his hand from the side of my face to my neck, where it gently rested, and his thumb then started rubbing across my lower lip.

Sleeping next to you, though, is going to take a bit more because you very much move around a lot in your sleep. ”

“Did you just tell me you love me?” I asked.

Silver’s smile only increased. How could a man look so damn sexy all of the time? “I absolutely did. I know it’s fast, and it’s all right if you aren’t there yet. I have every confidence that eventually you will come to feel the same way about me.”

I sat up in bed and tried my best to glare at my mate, but it just wasn’t working.

Why would I when he had just made me the absolute happiest man alive.

I absolutely couldn’t stop myself from smiling.

“What makes you think I don’t already love you?

” I asked. “You’ve mentioned it several times how I absolutely am not hiding anything from you.

So that would tell me you know how I feel.

I’m sure that you know already that I love you too. ”

“I do. That doesn’t mean that I don’t want to hear those words from you as well.

” Silver reached for me, and I willingly went down when he pulled me onto his chest. “But knowing that you love me, too, isn’t why I told you.

I just wanted to wait until it seemed like the right time.

Only, we’ve been so busy this week, it never seemed as if that time would come.

I know next week is going to be a huge adjustment, so I didn’t want to wait longer.

” Silver pulled me down for a kiss, and I was more than happy to let things spiral from there.

I quickly found myself under Silver when he easily rolled us.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, then moved them to his hair.

Silver moaned, and I threaded my fingers into the longer hair on top and gave it a gentle tug.

He growled into the kiss, which caused me to start to laugh.

Not the best thing to do, but I couldn’t help myself.

“You’re playing with fire, little mate,” he said since I was too busy giggling to kiss.

“I know. But I love it when you get all growly, and then it becomes so much more,” I said.

Then I pushed my hips up into his lower stomach as much as I could.

I had no doubt that he already knew I was turned on and more than ready to get busy with him.

It had been my intention all along, but then he had to go and tell me he loved me, and, well, it just seemed like the next step in how things were going to happen. At least for me.

Silver growled again, and then his mouth went to my neck. My giggling quickly turned into a gasp, then a moan when his teeth nipped at my claiming bite, and then his tongue and lips traced over it. It would always be a hot spot for me, just as his was for him.

“Silver,” I whispered.

“I know. I’m going to give you exactly what you need. Don’t worry, cutie.”

I wasn’t worried. From the first night, Silver had more than fulfilled every single sexual desire and need I had. I knew that now, and going forward, that would always be the case.

Silver was a very quick learner, and he kissed his way down my body as if he’d been doing it for years.

Already, he knew which paths to take to cause the most reaction from me, and this time was no different.

I gasped when his teeth gently bit on my nipple.

Not only did it feel amazing, but it also caused a zing of need to race through my body and center in my groin.

Silver didn’t make me wait long until his mouth was where I wanted it in that very moment.

He ran his nose up the side of my cock, and when he reached the tip, his tongue came out to play.

I moaned loudly when he pulled the foreskin back, exposing the sensitive head.

His tongue swirled around the head, and then he expertly sucked my cock into his mouth and down his throat.

I closed my eyes and moaned loudly into the bedroom.

I grabbed the sheet under me and held on as Silver moved up and down my length.

I was obviously smaller than he was, and he had no problems taking me all the way into his mouth, which was something I was so thankful for.

I hadn’t known if my mate would be willing to do what Silver did, but I was going to be forever thankful that I was paired with an alpha who was just as giving as I was.

I felt a familiar tingle in my balls and reached for Silver’s hair to pull him off. “I’m close,” I said as I tugged on his messy hair.

“That’s perfect,” he told me before he swallowed my cock again.

I moaned and this time didn’t bother to hold back.

It took less than a minute for that familiar tingle to start again.

Silver knew, and when his fingers slid down and behind my balls and started rubbing circles with just a bit of pressure, that was all it took.

I held on to the sheets below me as I came in my mate’s mouth.

He moaned after the first spurt of cum was released and again with each additional one.

When things became too sensitive, I was about to push on Silver’s head to get him to release my cock, but he already knew because he pulled off it and gave me one of his mischievous smiles.

I was too blissed-out from my orgasm to react to it, and before I could do anything, I was flipped onto my stomach.

I squeaked, something I often found myself doing when it came to my mate.

Once more, I had no time to react. Silver simply buried his face in my crack, and seconds later, I felt his tongue there.

He pulled my hips upward, and I did my best to roll them to where I was at a good angle for what I knew he wanted.

Three weeks ago, I never would have been open to this.

With Silver? I would let him do just about anything to me.

Why? Because he was my mate, he honestly enjoyed this as much as I did, and I trusted him more than anyone else in this world.

“So responsive.”

It took entirely too much effort to respond. “Only with you,” I managed to say back to him through our mate bond.

“As it should be.”

I heard a growl through our bond and started to laugh. It was so sexy. I knew Silver was an alpha, obviously. As such, it was expected that he would be growly and possessive. I found that I rather liked it. Only with Silver though.

I felt his fingers next, and I knew I was probably not going to be able to walk for a bit after Silver finally came.

He had a habit of giving me several orgasms for his one, and I wasn’t going to complain about that, but not only did it seem unfair toward him, but it usually meant my body felt like gelatin for an hour or so.

“Charlie, can I have you?”

I moaned. “You already have me, Silver. But yes, please fill me with your cock.”

I felt the bed move, and then the fingers were slowly pulled from me.

Seconds later, Silver was there, and my hips were pulled upward even more.

I put my knees under me just before I felt the thick head of his cock where his fingers had just been.

I pushed back a bit, but that earned me a gentle smack on my ass cheek.

“Nope. I’m taking this slow. We just said I love you for the first time, and I want this to last. If I let you push back onto me, my knot will pop, and it’ll be over before I want it to be.”
