A weekend with the Alpha novel Chapter 109

Zera shivered at his touch and I couldn't tell if she was afraid or affected by Ron's closeness. He rubbed his nose against her neck a few times and she moaned out, tilting her neck to give him much access to her. Her act was fueling his need, but he knew he couldn't take her, not like this. He needed to focus, and she wasn't helping. She raised her head and her eyes locked in his and I saw her desire, but I couldn't tell whether it was for him or me.

Ron withdrew, and I emerged on the surface, which had never happened in the history of the lunar shift. The werewolf form had always maintained dominance throughout the shift for all werewolves, but now Ron had changed the game. I could still mark Zera in my human form and the ritual would still stand. Ron knew that too, and chose to let me. He had never been selfless. He was the most selfish of all wolves. He had always taken every opportunity he saw to seize control, but he just gave it up because of how much Zera affected him.

"I don't understand." Zera stuttered, shaking her head as I transformed back to my human form before her eyes.

She didn't, but I did. "To mark you, he'd have to take you and as much as he wanted you, he knew you wanted me."

He must have also figured out how impossible it would be to mark her without hurting her. Ron might be my wolf, but I knew her body better, and he knew that, too. He didn't want her to hurt more than she already was.

My hand trailed over the side of her shoulder where Ron had dug his claw earlier. She whimpered and her eyes fluttered briefly in pain. "I'm sorry." I apologised, feeling terrible for her pain.

She smiled at me and shook her head. "I'll live." Her lashes fluttered. "What happens to the ritual now?" she asked.

"As long as you get marked under the Luna eclipse, by either of us, it's still valid."

"Then take me." She pulled her clothes off, and I felt Ron growl from within. He wanted her and it was an insane level of want.

I pulled her closer and kissed her lips hungrily. With little clothing between us, claiming her happened within seconds and we both moaned out. I had her on top of me, and she worked her hips furious against mine like an animal deprived of its due release. She was fierce in her need and wasn't afraid to pursue it. I released my left hand around her and moved the hair from around her left shoulder to give me a better view while fiercely thrusting into her.

I caught her lips for a hard kiss before pulling away and I saw the flare of lust and need brew in her eyes and I knew this was the peak of her desire. This was the perfect moment to mark her.

"Mark me, alpha." She moaned.

"We should go inside," he spoke, seeing as the morning approached. They had laid for over an hour in silence, and as much as he wanted to continue, he knew they shouldn't.

She nodded, and he helped her to her feet, gathering her clothes and helping her put some on. He found his trousers and shirt not so far away and quickly retrieved them. He wore them, hoping to go in and clean up properly.

"You're okay, right?" he asked, but she didn't answer. Instead, she picked up her boots. He took hold of her hand, bringing her attention to him, and their gazes locked. "You're okay, right?" I asked again.

She smiled before answering. "I am okay, Aaron, don't worry."

He smiled. "You were really brave, braver than I ever was with Ron, and I think he's your hardest lover yet."
