Her words bloom with potent yearning. “Iwantour bond, and it’s not because I’m out of control or lust addicted—though you are wicked sexy. I want our bond because we’re meant to be together. I had a hole in my heart that’s always been waiting for you, and you’re my only alpha who knows exactly what that means. And there’s more… you didn’t waste another woman’slife when you knew you couldn’t be what she needed. Do you have any idea how rare it is to find someone who isn’t selfish?”
“It shouldn’t be.”
“No, it shouldn’t be, but it is.” The way she stares at me—I already know I’ve never in my life been seen like this. “It’s more than that though. I think I get it, why Ory needs to be here and the role you’re going to play after the war ends.”
I hate the tears that fall from her eyes, but not the love that shines at me. “My alphas are many things and will fill many important roles for me and this pack, but your role is unlike any other alpha’s. I know why your heart was locked before you met me.”
“Please, Tillie, tell me.”
She caresses my face, and I never want her to stop. “Your heart was locked to protect it from harm, from growing cold or embracing rage. Relationships are a battlefield, and you were meant to be pure when you found me. Your kind nature will help guide me and remind me what the world should be for everyone. I love some of my alphas and tolerate the others—mostly—but there’s not an untarnished, gentle heart in the bunch. I need you desperately, and I want to be bonded to you already. I want to help Ory protect you, so that when I need your unique magic, it’s ready.”
I scoff. “You do understand that it’s not the most appealing thing for a man to hear, that he needs a wee lassie to protect him and his delicate heart?”
She giggles unapologetically. “Oh, yeah, Itotallyget that, but thiswee lassiedoesn’t care. You’ll be protected, and that’s final. I’m pretty sure Ory is on my side, and he’s much more intimidating than you.”
Bite the lovely omega already, and don’t argue. This is progress.If I could send my lodger to his room, I would. As itis, I simply request that he keeps his opinions to himself and lets me find my own way with Tillie.
“So, what do you say?” Her breaths are shallow, her chest rising and falling faster. Her excitement and confidence only make her bonnier.
“I say there’s nothing in this world I want more than to be bonded to you, but before we do this…”
“Yes?”
“I’d like our first kiss. Afirst biteseems to be skipping over an important step, don’t you think?”
“Yes, and I love that you thought that. Kisses are the best, but I don’t think they’re a big priority for the omegaverse.”
I raise my hands and capture her face. “Well, that sounds like the first thing we’ll be correcting then.”
“No doubt,” she mumbles, her gaze fixed on me, anticipation building.
I take my time, moving slowly toward her before allowing our lips to touch for the first time, at least with us in control of our bodies. The contact between her lips and mine ignites fireworks throughout my body, and I find myself confidently opening to her. My novice lips aren’t uncertain at all, and what I always hoped is proven to be reality. I was built to love this woman and to worship her with my body. She didn’t just unlock my ability to love, but also my ability to satisfy her in every way.
We breathe together as our tongues meet and clash, her fingers digging into my shoulders, pulling me closer, as she grinds against my cock that’s ready for her.
“Oh, please, Mackenzie… I need you.”
I reach and untie the belt on her dress, tugging it open. She moans as my rough hand reaches around her back and brings her closer, so that her bare chest is against mine.
“More,please… I need you inside me.” My woman is whimpering, and I know exactly what to do, as though her body and mine are already confiding in each other.
I reach down and pull up my kilt, and without disrupting our heated kisses, I grab her waist and push her down onto me. Her mouth falls open, her eyes close, and her head tilts back as waves of pleasure wash over us.
“You’re mine, Mackenzie—forever,” she whispers through panting breaths.
“I am and always will be, true to you forever. And you are mine, the owner of my heart that only beats for you.”
“Now, bond me. Show me who you are, and you’ll know everything about me. No secrets. I trust your heart…please…”
I can’t deny her for another second. It’s a miracle I held out this long. My teeth enter her, claiming the spot on her shoulder in the same space where a bondmark shows on her other side. Mine is in perfect balance with the other, equal to her first alpha’s bite. I think I chose the spot, but Ory’s smugness makes me think he had something to do with it. But I can’t think about that, because all of Tillie’s life is now mine to behold, and soon after, all my life is revealed to her.
Our bodies still move, effortlessly maintaining the rhythm chosen by our desire, driving toward the bliss of release. I think she’s changed her mind about bonding me, but then she leans and punctures my flesh right over my heart, where there’s not another bite. It’s so right to have her claim me there, and the feeling of her teeth opens yet another door that proves this was the life I was always meant to live.
Every second of my life when sorrow and loneliness were all I knew, every struggle I ever faced… it was worth it, worth everything to be here at last. I just wish every person found a connection like this, one that justifies every hardship they experienced on their way to perfection.
Tillie’s ragged breaths only stop when she achieves the peak promised by true devotion. She’s barely breathing when she says the words that prove who she is and that mine isn’t the only pure heart in this pack.
“Please, Mackenzie, I want us to let go, and let Ory and his omega be together. We’ll have time—I promise you that—but the omegaverse betrayed them, and I want us to keep our promises. I want us to honor their sacrifices. I think they’ve earned that, but only if…”
