Athena looked up into Draco’s eyes and just stared for a minute. A part of her wanted to take the plunge and say what she was feeling but a part of her was petrified of the answer.
“I guess I was thinking about something you had told your family a while back. Only marrying to produce an heir to take your spot when you were ready to step back. What would have happened if the firstborn was a female? Would she have been able to take over as Alpha?” Athena blurted out, biting her lower lip.
Draco coughed his laugh at her question. Shaking his head, he leaned forward and kissed her forehead.
“No. Sadly, the Council does not allow for a female to lead, yet. I guess it would have been up to the female I would have mated. If she wanted to try again for a male or we marry our daughter off to a male who has Alpha blood and merge our packs with them,” Draco answered honestly, rubbing his fingers over her lower lip.
“And I took that away from you. Your ability to just do that. Didn’t I?”
Chapter
Twenty-Four
Athena couldn’t lookhim in the eye after she admitted that statement to him. She honestly didn’t want to hear his answer to that statement and started to move off his lap.
When his grip tightened on her to hold her still, she couldn’t resist the desire to look up into his eyes. The eyes that always made her heart melt, her insides go gooey.
“Yes. You did.”
Athena tried again to move but he shifted their positions and had her on her back on the couch before she could react. His whole body covering hers as he followed her down onto the couch.
“Yes. You did. But I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world. You made me realize that it’s okay to have that laughter, that happiness, and still be the Alpha my pack needs. My father and mother have done it for thirty plus years. While the times are different, the ability to have both are not. Have patience with me as I learn. Please?”
Athena couldn’t help but stare up at the man for several seconds as she listened to him speak. At his question she gave him a nod, afraid her voice would fail her if she tried to answer.
She sighed deeply when he leaned down and gently placed his lips on hers. Their kiss started out passionate.
She moved her hand from his arm to his face, holding him to her as she drank from his lips, the gentleness nearly doing her in. Making her crave more and more of him.
When she moved her hands from his face to the nape of his neck, she couldn’t help but let out the moan that was building up inside her at the need she had for this man. He was quickly becoming the air that she breathed.
She ran the heel of her foot up the back of his leg, until she reached his waist, opening herself up for him even more. Good thing the dress she had on was a flowy one and not one of the tighter ones, otherwise she’d be stuck with just rubbing her foot against his legs.
She felt Draco’s hand unbutton a few of the buttons on the top of the dress and move the flaps, along with the cup of her bra to the side as he feasted himself on her breast, making her back arch off of the couch from the sensations of his tongue, teeth, and his mouth driving her insane. She gripped his hair with both hands to keep him where he was as she rode the pleasure his mouth was bringing her.
With her free leg wrapped around his waist, the skirt part of her dress hiked up, her crotch lined up with his hard cock, she let herself ride. Athena groaned as she felt her orgasm rushing to the surface, then wanted to kill the man when he stopped what he was doing.
When she felt him move to free her other leg, she quickly wrapped the leg around him to lock him into place. When she heard him chuckle lightly, she wanted to punch him in the nose, but she kind of needed his face to be bloodless at the moment.
“Easy, baby,” Draco murmured against her lips as he came back down.
Athena moaned loudly when she felt Draco’s fingers ease her panties to the side and start teasing her pussy with his fingers. She now realized the appeal why the alpha males in her books preferred their women without them.
She used one hand to reach for his belt and undo it. Once she had gotten it open, she opened his jeans and reached in, gripping his cock and stroking him as best as she could.
“Fuck!” Draco groaned out loudly as he rested his forehead against hers. “How attached to these panties are you? Fuck it, I can buy you more.”
Without waiting for an answer, Draco tore the underwear she was wearing from her body as he slid down her body, dislodging her hand from his cock. When he got in position, his knees on the floor, he lifted her legs over his shoulders and feasted on her pussy.
He was a man who was starving for her taste. Teasing, licking, sucking, and using his fingers and tongue to bring her to an explosive orgasm that had her screaming out as she came.
She didn’t get a chance to come down from her orgasm before Draco surged up, his cock in hand as he notched it to her entrance and thrust in hard. With her legs still over his shoulders, Draco held her hips as she pounded into her hard and fast.
“Fuck,” was all Draco could say as he continued at his fast pace, staring down at her.
Athena struggled to catch her breath as her orgasm rushed faster than it’s ever done before. She grappled for something to hold on to as her world was turning upside down.
She gripped his forearms, her nails digging into his skin, drawing blood as her mouth opened on a silent scream, her eyes rolling into the back of her head as she came hard, soaking his cock in her juices. When she heard him yell his release shortly thereafter, her body started shaking from the intensity.
