He nodded, staring up at me with so much in his gaze. “Yes, pet. Just there. Harder, Theo.”

I slammed my hips against his ass, chasing the tingling release.

Soren wrapped a hand around his cock, but before he got to jack off, he came all over his stomach, setting me off. We both groaned as my seed filled him.

Soren dragged me down onto him, meeting me in a slow kiss.

After, he pressed his forehead to mine. “You’re mine,” he said quietly.

I smiled faintly, still catching my breath. “Yeah.” I brushed my fingers along his jaw. “You’re stuck with me.”

A quiet huff of amusement left him, though his eyes softened. “Forever,” he said.

“Good,” I replied.

CHAPTER SIX

Soren

Days blurred together in a way that should have felt suffocating, but with Theo, it wasn’t. It was special and indulgent. Every hour we spent tangled in the sheets only cemented him deeper beneath my skin, soul, and blood.

By the time we finally resurfaced, I knew one thing with absolute certainty: My love had bloomed for my fated mate instantly.

He was now at the center of my world, and I would do anything for him. No matter what he wished for, I would fulfill it.

After showering, we stood in his room, dressing. Since I’d already completed the task, I watched Theo as he picked up his club vest and placed it on with a small, pleased smile.

“I should go to the nightclub to check on things,” I told him, adjusting my cuffs.

Yet, I didn’t want to leave him.

Every instinct I possessed, ancient and territorial, wanted him exactly where he was. At my side. Under my protection and within reach.

This feeling of possessiveness would ease with time, but it was currently consuming me. However, I didn’t want him to feel I was smothering if he didn’t have the same need to stick close.

I exhaled slowly. “You can come… or stay. I’m sure you have your own responsibilities.”

There, I had given him the illusion of choice. It made me seem like a good mate, right?

Theo stepped in to me without hesitation, his rough fingers catching my jaw, dragging my attention fully onto him. “I ain’t ready to let you leave.”

I stilled.

The words shouldn’t have hit as hard as they did.

“Sorry?” I asked, quieter than intended.

A smirk curved his mouth, all confidence and heat. “Not without me. I’m coming with you, babe.”

Something dark and pleased unfurled inside my chest.

Relieved he was as addicted as I was.

I pushed into him, claiming his mouth with mine. I trailed my lips over his jaw, his neck, and scraped my teeth over his flesh. My fangs ached to be embedded. But I’d already taken enough today.

Theo wound his hand around my throat and forced me back. “We either continue this or leave because if we don’t leave, I’ll have you naked in seconds and my cock buried inside you.”

My hole throbbed.
