Chapter 33: Chapter 33

The collapse of a log was enough to wake me up. I stirred, wincing as my muscles protested against the floor beneath me, a heavy body weighing me down. My fingers gripped the heavy blankets covering me. Confused, at first, I thought I was dreaming. Why would anyone be cuddling me? This couldn't be real; I couldn't be lying in a bra and panties on the floor with Aiden beside me, who was naked under covers. What even happened last night?

To say my whole body was exhausted after suffering through the blizzard didn't even describe what I was truly feeling, not to mention that my throat parched as sandpaper and lips dry. Looking around, I realised that there was a small bottle of water placed by my side.

Without thinking much into it, I desperately reached for it, a sigh escaping my throat. My omega was very weak and had difficulty holding the bottle up to my lips, so I strained my muscles. I drank as much water from the container as I could and didn't care when the cold liquid ran down my jaw and neck and soaked the front of my bra. It was so good to fill my empty stomach, even if it was only water.

Stretching my tired limbs, I blinked the sleep out of my eyes when I smelled it. The entire living room was reeking of my sweat and slick combined with Aidens pheromones. Did we have sex last night? My hand trailed towards my thighs which were drenched in my slick, that's all.

The shrieking wind pelting against the windows, the gently flickering firelight, and Aidens soft snores made me recall all about last night. Everything clicked into place; the events of what went down surged through my brain.

After waking up, I surveyed the details available to my eyes, still hazy. My panties were clinging to the folds, abdomen clenching painfully upon noticing Aiden sleeping next to me. His cock was hard, so naturally, I wound my legs around his hips, sitting on top. Peering at him, I couldn't help but notice his beautiful hair, dark and thick and rather long, formed into beautiful curls. Due to the embers of fire, they appeared lighter, almost golden.

The Alphas face turned towards me in his sleep, and I wanted to trace my finger along the bridge of his nose, which was perfectly shaped. His mouth was wide, his lips plump and soft. Just looking at the sleeping man warmed my skin and sent blood rushing.

He sucked a sharp breath, eyes fluttering open to look at me.

"Please knot me, Alpha", I whispered to him, unable to stop the words from escaping my throat.

I was dizzy with the force of attraction, almost heady and wanted to have his cock inside me. The necessary physical intimacy of our naked bodies had established an unconscious connection between them. I caressed him, stroked him, knew the textures of his skin from the roughness of slightly stubbled cheeks to the sleekness of his shoulders. The sharing of the blanket had caused some unavoidable contact of the most sexually intimate parts, which provoked my omega to act boldly, take charge.

"Rose", He breathed, ragged and hoarse. The wind still blew, rattling the windows, but I couldn't see anything beyond the glass but impenetrable curtains. Did he close the windows? "You don't know what you are asking for. It's your omega talking."

A whine escaped my lips, eyes narrowing as I tried to move against his length. He wrapped a steady hand around my waist, holding me in place. The fingers digging into my skin caused me to sigh, his touch warm and gripping me tightly.

"Omega, you need to stop moving." Aiden cursed under his breath, sweat forming in the hollow of his throat. His jaw was clenched, eyes rolling back for a second before he composed himself.

I rolled my bottom lip in between my sharp teeth, planting my palms on his pecks. "But why Alpha? Don't you like it?"

"Oh, you have no idea!" He whispered something along those lines under his breath, averting his eyes. I blinked at him. What was going on in his mind? Perhaps there's someone else, and that's why he didn't want to knot me. My omega clawed at me at the thought, my heart thumping loudly.

My hand slowly moved towards his hard cock, watching him jerk under my hold as I tried to wrap my fingers around them. It was so thick and veiny, liquid bubbling at the tip. His hand halted my moment, gripping my wrist tightly before I could do anything.

"Stop!" Aiden used his Alpha voice. That was enough to make me submit; head was thrown down in submission, eyes fluttering shut. "Y-You need to rest now. I can knot you tomorrow once you are fully awake."

My lips twisted at that, but I leaned forward, my lips mere inches away from him. If he moved, we could quickly be kissing each other. I noticed his eyes widen slightly because the action caused my pelvis to rub against his bare skin.

"Promise?"

"Y-Yes, I promise you." He stuttered, using that arm to flip me back on the ground. A yelp escaped my lips as I tried to gain balance, but he secured me. Aiden's arms came around to wrap me as I slotted my behind against his thigh.

The Alpha groaned, taking a massive whiff of my scent. "You're not making it easy for me, Rose."

***

And just as abruptly, I snapped out of the memory, feeling my cheeks turn bright red. What was wrong with me? Did I throw myself at Aiden so he could have his way? My hands came to cover my heated face, thinking back to how the Alpha gently handled the situation and didn't take advantage of me.

I realised that the Alpha was also awake. He was lying very still, but every muscle was tense, and his cock, which was bare and hidden under the blankets, was growing thicker and longer by the second.

"Good morning, Alpha", I awkwardly murmured, averting my eyes away.

He lifted his head, and our eyes met for a flash second. I felt an almost tangible shock staring into those stormy green eyes that were utterly aware and blank. Aiden set his lips in a straight line, head bobbing at my greeting.

I usually wasn't one to blush, but now staring back at him, I felt my cheeks heating up, and I almost groaned aloud. What do you say to a man you proposed to have sex with and then got rejected while he is still sleeping next to you? Naked at that?

Aiden sat up, the covers falling to his lap, revealing his upper body, those pecs that I wanted to lick last night. "How are you feeling now?”

"Uh…I-I am fine..." I chewed on my lips, fingers twisting together. "And thank you...for taking care of me last night."

"Do not mention it!" With that, he took one blanket, wrapped it around his waist and walked out of the living room.

I listened for a few seconds for any noise before getting up and opening the window's drapes. The warm rays of sunlight hit my face when I realised the blizzard was long gone.
