Protective Mate Read online

  The door bell rang and excitedly, she ran to her front door. Just before opening it, she hesitated. What if it was him? Nicolai had assured her he would not dare return to their home. Cautiously, she peeked through the peep hole and saw her friends. Feeling silly, she opened the door.

  Sue Ann and Mila stood anxiously at the door. Delia smiled and welcomed them to her new home. After giving them the grand tour of her new home, they walked back to the living room and sat comfortably on the sofa.

  “We’re going to visit the Alpha and his mate tonight.”

  Sue Ann and Mila gasped.

  “I talked to Nicolai about it last night and he assures me Lucien isn’t like Murdock. He swore to me that Lucien would never demand sex from us. He also promised me he wouldn’t let any man touch me.” Stunned, they remained silent.

  “I know you haven’t found your mates yet, but Nicolai said that you are allowed to enter relationships with any males you might be interested in. You just both have to realize that if either of you find your mates, the relationship is over.”

  “Delia, I’m so happy for you. But I’m so afraid. I don’t want to be hurt. We haven’t found our mates yet. How do we know the males here won’t hurt us like the others did? Maybe they would be worse!”

  “Oh, Sue Ann. I understand your fears. Do you feel the same way, Mila?” She nodded.

  “Have you found males you find attractive?”

  “There are a few, yes.” Mila nodded in agreement.

  “What was it like? Your orgasm?” Mila asked.

  “What did sex feel like when he didn’t hurt you?” Sue Ann asked at the same time.

  Delia laughed and answered all of her friends’ questions. A short while later, Billy Rae’s delivered their lunch and they ate happily in the living room.

  When Nicolai returned home, he was greeted by the sound of laughter in the living room. He walked into the living room, smiling at the females.

  “Sounds like you’re having a great time.” He leaned over and kissed Delia.

  “Thanks for lunch, it was great!” He sat down next to her and set the briefcase on the coffee table. He opened it and pulled out an envelope. He gave it to Delia.

  “These are your credit cards. If you want to change anything in the house, go ahead and make your purchases. But no frilly stuff on our bed, unless you’re wearing it,” he grinned impishly as he wriggled his eyebrows suggestively. He reached into the briefcase again and pulled out two more envelopes, giving one to Sue Ann, the other one to Mila.

  “That contains your bank account information and your debit card. Lucien has created accounts for both of you. Actually, for all of our new pack members.” They looked at the generous balance statement and stared at him in surprise.

  “It’s to get you started in your new life. The land that once belonged to Lost Souls has been sold at a great price. He took most of the money and divided it equally among our new members. The rest he’s going to save for future pack expenses.”

  “I hope you recognize that Lucien isn’t like Murdock. He wants to see you safe and happy. I realize that you are skeptical. It’s understandable. Lucien hopes that you will stay in Last Hope, where we can protect you. He realizes that you may also wish to move to another pack, in search of your true mate. If that is what you wish, the money is still yours to keep. He only asks that if you wish to leave, you clear it with him and allow him to arrange safe passage for you.” They nodded in agreement.

  “Little One, I have a few things to handle before we head over to Lucien’s tonight. I’ll be in my office if you need me. Ladies, it’s been a pleasure. You are welcome in our home, any time.”

  Nicolai kissed his mate again and went to his office. Delia’s friends decided to do a little shopping and left a short while later.

  Delia walked into Nicolai’s office and found him on the computer.

  “Nicolai?”

  “Come in, Honey.”

  Delia walked in and stood near him. He pulled her onto his lap and she stroked his cheek.

  “Thank you for today.”

  “Are you thanking me for the awesome, mind blowing sex this morning? ‘Cause that is nothing compared to what I have planned for later.” She laughed, shaking her head.

  “I meant, for allowing me to have my friends over, for arranging lunch, for putting them at ease. You have no idea how much that meant to me.”

  “Sweetheart, this is your home too. Of course your friends are welcome here, anytime you wish. As long as it doesn’t interfere with our sex life, that is.” His eyes gleamed wickedly.

  “I kind of mentioned how great sex was and my friends are really interested in finding out for themselves. But they are scared that any male they choose will hurt them like before.”

  “We are not like Lost Souls males. If you tell me the males they are interested in, I would be happy to threaten their lives for you.” She smiled and ran her fingers through his hair.

  “Seriously, though, I can talk to them and emphasize how important it is to be extra gentle with the new females. It won’t be a problem, I promise.” She told them the few names her friends had mentioned and then deliberately wriggled on his lap. He groaned.

  “Undress me, Delia.” She unbuttoned his shirt, kissed his neck. Delia enjoyed touching her mate. She ran her hands along his chest and belly, moved back up and ran her thumb across his nipples. Her mouth enclosed his erect nipple and she sucked gently, swirling her tongue around it. Nicolai stroked her hair as she suckled one nipple then the other. She moved off his lap and ordered him to stand. She unbuttoned his jeans and lowered his zipper one inch at a time. She hooked her thumbs in his shorts and jeans and yanked them down his legs. She placed a kiss on the head of his erect cock and his knees gave out. He fell back onto his chair and watched her.

  “Unbutton your top, Delia.” Seductively, she unbuttoned her blouse, one button at a time. She slipped the shirt off and tossed it on the couch to her left.

  “Take off your shorts, Delia.” She unbuttoned her shorts, unzipped it and pushed it down. She stepped out of it and tossed it near her shirt.

  “Remove your bra.” Nicolai could barely get the words out. Delia smiled slyly at his anguish and slid the straps down her shoulders. She turned around and unhooked her bra, removed it and tossed it on the pile of clothes.

  “Turn around, Delia.” She crossed her arms over her breasts and turned around.

  “Don’t hide from me, Delia. I enjoy looking at your breasts. Can’t wait to suck on your nipples.” Her nipples hardened at the thought and she became wet. He smelled her arousal and his wolf eyes flashed momentarily.

  “Turn around and take off your panties, Delia.” She turned around, so her back was to him. She pushed down her panties and bent over to remove them. She blushed, aware of how she looked bent over and nude. She heard his groan and her womb contracted. She straightened and turned around, not bothering to cover herself.

  “Are you wet for me?” Delia nodded.

  “Come here and straddle me.” Though he commanded her, he didn’t force her. She understood the difference. She could choose to follow his directions, and she loved him for giving her a choice. She climbed on top of him, straddling him. She positioned his erect cock at the tip of her entrance and slid down on him. Placing her hands on his shoulders and using him for leverage, she pushed up. One hand held her waist as the other began rubbing her clit. She moved up and down on her mate’s thick cock, riding him harder and harder.

  “Nicolai, you feel so good. I’m so close.” Her nipples grazed against his chest as she moved up and down on him. His hand left her hip and he spanked her. Surprised at the sudden sting on her ass, she gasped. Nicolai watched her intently, gauging her reaction. She didn’t protest when he did it again, and was shocked to find her body responding. Nicolai spanked her ass, massaged it then spanked it again. She groaned and bit her lip.

  “Again,” she said, breathless. Nicolai’s eyes darkened as he continued to spank her. Delia
rode him harder, pushed him deeper inside of her and her nails dug into his shoulders. She tossed her head back and screamed loudly as a powerful orgasm gripped her. Her muscles squeezed around him, milking out his seed. She held his face and kissed him passionately, sucking on his bottom lip. She eased him out of her and climbed off him.

  “Join me in a shower?” she asked. He nodded and took her hand.

  Outside his window, across the backyard and behind the wooden fence, her male gripped the wood hard enough to break it. Nicolai’s curtains were wide open and the male saw her on her knees, mouth on his cock. Saw her stand and watched as she stripped for him like a whore. Saw her bend over, showing him her pussy and ass. What a slut, he thought as he gripped the fence boards tighter. Never had she acted that way with him. Jealousy reared its ugly head when he saw her straddle and ride him. He was shocked to see her mate spank her. Judging from the way she moved, she enjoyed it. Unable to contain his anger, he gripped the fence until it snapped. He growled loudly as he watched them fuck on the leather chair. He pulled and kicked at the fence, destroying it and the flowers that lined their back yard. Anger temporarily sated, he left, a plan forming in his head.

  ~ Chapter Eight ~

  Neither spoke during the car ride to the Alpha’s house. Delia nervously drummed her fingers on one leg. Nicolai reached over and squeezed her thigh, slipped his fingers between her legs and rubbed the spot directly over her clit. She gasped and he scented her immediate arousal. He grinned with pleasure. His mate was insatiable.

  They had showered together and he had been unable to resist her. He had lifted her up and fucked her against the shower wall. Perhaps he was the one that was insatiable. He had fucked her three times already and his cock still wanted more. He sighed. This was going to be a long night. He swore that as soon as dinner was over, he’d find a way to fuck his needy mate. Would she let him fuck her in the car? He was no teenager, but he would enjoy having her ride him in the car. Or perhaps he could bend her over the back of the hood and fuck her?

  Delia scented his arousal, saw the way his jeans filled out and she reached over and stroked him. Nicolai groaned. “Delia, honey, you’d better stop before I make a mess in my jeans.” She chuckled and ordered him to pull over. She unzipped his jeans, leaned over and took him in her mouth. She sucked on him as she pumped her fist around his thick cock. His hands roved through her hair and he massaged her scalp as her hot mouth worked on his throbbing cock. Her head bobbed up and down, sucking him tightly. Her tongue swirled around the ridge and licked the slit at the top of his head. She moved back down and sucked him deeper into her mouth, fondled his sac and he came, jerking into her mouth. She swallowed all of him and raised her head. Shocked that she swallowed him this time, he pulled her head close and kissed her.

  “Thanks, Honey. I really needed that.” Nicolai sighed. “I wish you had worn a dress. It would have been a lot easier to fuck you. Take off your jeans and panties,” he commanded. Delia shook her head. “I want to fuck you with my fingers. I promise to fuck you with my tongue the moment I get a chance.”

  Her pussy clenched at the image of him licking her and she bit her lip.

  “I can lick you right now, Delia, but you will have to get out of the car.” Nicolai’s voice was tight with desire.

  “We don’t have time. Besides, they’ll know if we….”

  Delia blushed, unable to finish her sentence.

  “Are you sure, Delia? I don’t want to leave you unsatisfied.”

  She grinned at him and popped a breath mint into her mouth. “You never leave me unsatisfied, Nicolai. Don’t worry, I can wait until after dinner.” Nicolai drove them to the Alpha’s house and counted down the minutes until he could pleasure his mate.

  Nicolai parked in the circular driveway in front of the Alpha house. He opened Delia’s car door and offered his arm. She smiled at him adoringly. Would she ever get used to his kindness? She stood and slipped her arm into his. He closed the door and they walked to the front door. Lanie opened the door and greeted them warmly. They followed her into the living room, where Lucien held their six week old daughter, Carina. Delia was surprised at the tender look on her Alpha’s face as he gazed at his daughter. He waved his finger above her and she flailed her arms trying to grab it. When she did, he smiled contentedly.

  Lucien raised his head and acknowledged his guests, welcomed them and introduced his daughter to Delia. Nicolai leaned over, holding his finger out to her. She grasped it and he bent down and kissed the back of her hand. It was such a sweet gesture, Delia fell in love with Nicolai just a little bit more. He straightened and turned to Delia, saw the adoring expression on her face and his eyes darkened. Delia’s eyes dilated when she saw the desire in her mate’s eyes and she bit back a moan. Desire flooded through her and her arousal perfumed the air.

  Lucien caught her scent and frowned.

  “Nicolai, you have been neglecting your mate. Take her to one of the bedrooms. You may join us once she is sated.”

  Both Lanie and Delia blushed. Nicolai nodded and picked up his mate, cradling her in his arms as he carried her to one of the spare bedrooms in the back.

  “Lucien, how could you?”

  Lucien shook his head.

  “She was in great need, My Love. She ached for his touch. He was sated, she was not. How could he deny her? Leave her unsatisfied?”

  “She seemed happy with him. She adores him. Perhaps they ran out of time?”

  “Hmmm. Satisfying a mate is far more important than dining with the Alpha. I will make sure this doesn’t happen again. I will not be the reason for leaving a mate unfulfilled.”

  Lanie chuckled and shook her head. She leaned over and kissed him. She took Carina and rocked her to sleep. She placed her sleeping angel in her crib then joined Lucien in their bedroom. They had plenty of time for a quickie.

  Delia’s body ached for her mate. Nicolai kicked the door closed behind them and set her down on the bed. He removed her shoes and tossed it behind him. He pushed her down gently so he could unbutton her jeans, unzip then slip her jeans down her legs, along with her soaking panties. He knelt down and spread her legs, licked her several times along her crease and she moaned.

  He spread her lips and explored her, licking and sucking on her clit before finding and plunging his tongue into her wet channel. She groaned and clutched the covers. Nicolai loved fucking her with his tongue, enjoyed the way she tasted, the sounds of pleasure she made as he delved deeper.

  “Deeper, Deeper!” she begged, and he moved his lips over her clit as he thrust two fingers into her roughly. She groaned and clutched his head. His fingers thrust in and out of her faster and faster, going as deep as he could. He raised his head as his fingers thrust into her repeatedly, his thumb rubbing her clit and asked her, “Tongue, fingers or my cock? Delia, Honey? What do you need?”

  “Nicolai, I need you so badly. Deep inside of me.”

  He nodded in understanding and stood. Nicolai unbuttoned and unzipped his jeans, slid them down to his ankles. Delia turned onto her hands and knees and lowered her chest to the bed. He grasped her hip with one hand and his cock with the other. He positioned the crown against her entrance and pushed, gliding all the way in. She gasped at the sudden fullness and groaned. He withdrew slowly and thrust in fast and deep, withdrew slowly and thrust in deep. Delia whimpered and begged him to go faster. He pumped his hips at a steadily increasing pace, sliding against her hot slick walls. Within moments she orgasmed and he found his release soon after, emptying his seed deep inside his mate.

  Lanie walked into her bedroom and Lucien closed the door behind her. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately as he walked her towards their bed. Her ass touched the comforter and Lucien nibbled on her neck. He turned her around and pushed her roughly, bending her over their bed. He lifted up her dress and yanked down her panties, ripping them off her. He had always fantasized about bending his mate over and fucking her, fully clothed.

  Lucien un
zipped his pants, pushed it down and held his cock. He rubbed his thick erection along her seam. Lanie whimpered and raised her ass a little higher. Lucien asked, “Do you want it there, Lanie?”

  She tried to push up and said “NO! Not there, Lucien!”

  She blushed and he grinned. He pressed his thumb inside of her, wetting it. Then he moved the head of his cock to her wet entrance and thrust, sheathing himself fully. Lanie groaned. He withdrew fast and returned just as quickly. While his cock thrust into his mate, he placed his wet thumb on the opening of her ass and rubbed it gently. Lanie moaned as he fucked her hard and fast. She didn’t object when he pressed his thumb gently into her and sped up his rhythm. She heard him panting with exertion and he adjusted his hips. Lucien pounded into her as he reached around and found her clit. He teased it in slow circles as he pressed his thumb further into her ass. Her body tensed and jerked forward, away from her mate, into the bed, the comforter muffling her screams of pleasure. Lucien didn’t slow his pace as he felt her convulsing around his cock, massaging him. Suddenly his sac tensed and he felt his seed leave his body, filling his mate.

  ~ Chapter Nine ~

  Lucien reluctantly withdrew from his mate when he heard the doorbell ring. He leaned over Lanie and gently bit her neck.

  “Our other guests are here.”

  “I’m going to clean up before I join you.”

  Lucien dressed, washed his hands then went to greet his other guests.

  In the guest bedroom, Delia and Nicolai heard the doorbell ring. Were the Alpha pair expecting other guests? Delia blushed, knowing other wolves would be able to scent their lovemaking. Nicolai picked up her wet panties and walked over to a small door in the room. He opened it and Delia saw a small bathroom beyond the door. Nicolai dropped her panties in the laundry hamper and returned to the room. He showed Delia where she could find spare underwear. Nicolai explained that Lanie kept the spare bedrooms supplied with extra clothes for emergencies. Grateful, Delia picked out a pair of panties and slipped them on.
