Chapter 61: Chapter 61

Even though, I was crumbled on the floor and in tears, I couldn't help, but feel desire pool inside me at seeing my mate's s*xy, tattooed and muscular body.

Sebastian ran to me and wrapped his arms around me to help me stand up as his alluring dark eyes searched my hazel ones, "Kat, are you okay? Did he do anything before I reached you?"

I shook my head as I stood on my own and he let my arms go, "No, you came just in time, Sebastian."

Seeing a few drops of tears leave my eyes, he cupped both of my cheeks in his hands and used his thumb to wipe them away. His face looked pained and worried as he watched my face, "Don't cry, cupcake. I'm here and he can't hurt you anymore, okay?"

I nodded, trying to stop crying, "Okay, but how did you know that I was here?"

"Your wolf told my wolf just as I was almost at your place and I pressed in the brakes to drive faster. I'm so sorry that I wasn't here with you to prevent him from laying a hand on you."

'Thank you, companion.' I whispered to my wolf in my head.

'You don't need to thank me, little Kat. I will always protect you and so will our mate.' Her reply came, her voice sounding pained.

'I am grateful.' I replied to her then moved my attention back to Sebastian.

"You don't need to apologize, Sebastian, it's not your fault and thanks for saving me." I replied to him, my lips stretched into a large smile.

"Still, I should have been here to protect you from the start as your mate." He muttered as he let go of my face and let his hands hang by his side.

"Hey, it's really not your fault, so ease don't beat yourself up, Sebastian." I said to him in a reassuring voice and took his large hand in mine.

His lips tugged up into a smile as the pain from his face disappeared and the worry decreased, "As you wish, cupcake."

I squeezed his hand in comfort, but I knew that it was more for me to be comforted than for him. I glanced at his hand and then looked up into his alluring dark eyes as a blush rose on my cheeks, "I'm very ready for you to mark me now, Sebastian. We can't risk Cameron doing it before you do to separate us. I'm so sorry for delaying it because I was scared and nervous."

His other hand cupped my cheek and he caressed it as his gorgeous, alluring dark eyes stared deeper into mine, "You don't need to apologize, Kat. It's best we do it when you're comfortable."

"Yeah, so let's go do it now." I urged, feeling scared of Cameron marking me instead of Sebastian.

"Okay, cupcake." He answered me, realizing why I was in such a hurry.

I let out a heavy breath and started stepping forward, but Sebastian bent down to place his hands under my knees an back then lifted me up bridal style. He started moving forward towards the corner as he hugged me to his bare, tattooed chest. I glanced at his face as I protested, "I can walk you know."

His lips twitched up into a smile as he continued taking long strides forward, "Yeah, I know."

From there, he used his Alpha quick speed to take up through the apartment building, the stairs and to my apartment's door. He let me down on my feet and I realized that he has been carrying my grocery bags and my purse all along after he picked me up. I smiled at him as he handed me my purse, "Thanks."

He nodded as I took it from him and opened it to pull out my keys. I placed them in the key hole and opened the door. As we walked in, I closed the door and went to take the groceries from his hands, but he shook his head, his face still looking concerned as his gorgeous eyes stared at my face, "I'll take them to the kitchen, you can go freshen up before I'm done putting them away."

"Okay." I replied to him with a small nod, knowing that I probably looked like a mess with my mascara running down my face.

I turned around and made my way to bedroom's door. As I walked in, I went straight to the mirror to see just how bad my face looked from crying. I was surprised that it didn't look that bad, but my eyes were puffy and red with dark mascara circles under them and my face still looked red even though I was tanned.

I let out a sigh and turned to walk towards the bathroom. Taking a shower was the best thing that I could do, especially since Cameron's scent was all over me and I was sure that Sebastian would not like it. So I went over to the sink to wipe my face with face wipes first to make sure that the mascara stains were gone.

By the time that I was done showering, I walked out of the bathroom with only a white towel around me which came up to my mid thigh. Sebastian was sitting on the bed, now wearing a white top and dark jeans. His alluring dark gaze captured mine and I felt the intensity of them as my breath hitched. The s*xual tension between us crackled and I felt drawn to him as if he was pulling me to him with his eyes.

His gaze dragged down to my body as it went over my chest, my hips, my thighs and my legs before moving back up to my eyes. His deep voice sounded husky and s*xy as he breathed out, "Are you going to change or do you want us to do it with you in a towel?"

My heart raced with want and love as I breathed out, "Yeah, I'm going to change now."

"Alright." He answered me, his lips twitching as if trying to stop himself from smiling and I saw the look of amusement on his face.

I turned to my drawer and pulled out the one that I kept my PJs in. I grabbed a blue, hello kitty sleeping gown which stopped just above my knees then turned to the bathroom to walk back inside to change into them, but stay with my bra, not wanting to have a repeat of the night at his house when I wasn't ready for mating.

Sebastian was typing on his phone as he stayed seated on the edge of the bed when I walked back out. He glanced up at me and his alluring dark eyes clashed with mine. His face softened and he placed his phone on the bed. Sebastian stood up from the bed and started towards me while I walked towards him. My lips stretched into a smile, "Hey."

"Hey, you." He said back as he reached me.

"I guess this is it…" I trailed off as his captivating dark eyes captured mine.

My hazel eyes stared back into his as his face inched closer to mine. His entrancing, deep voice came as he hand moved up to my dark hair. He brushed his fingers through my hair and I felt delightful shivers run through me at the sensation. He moved his hand to my cheek and cupped it as his gorgeous eyes stared deeper into mine. I saw them change into red as his teeth sharpened and extended into fangs which made him look even s*xier.

Sebastian's perfect, pink lips parted as he murmured, "I have waited so long for this moment, my one."

His lips crashed into mine and they captured mine. I kissed him back just as fiercely and he wrapped his other hand aroun my waist to pull me against his body. I felt him against me and I felt desire pool in my tummy. He moved his lips to my cheek then to my jaw and finally my neck. He trailed hot kisses down my neck and when he reached the skin between my shoulder and my neck, I felt his fangs graze my skin.

I moaned from the feeling and my core tightened with arousal. He didn't waste anytime and sung his fangs into my skin. He moaned and I moaned from the sheer pleasure of the mate marking. My legs buckled from the immense pleasure and he moved us to the bed with his Alpha quick speed. So he was on top of me while I laid down on the bed.

His fangs sunk deeper into my neck and I moaned again as my thighs rubbed against each other in desire. He pulled out his fangs and slipped his tongue out to lick the two puncture mark, healing it with his spit. Since it was a mark by my mate's fangs, no blood came out, he only injected a serum from his fangs that binded my soul to his.

I groaned in pleasure at the feel of his tongue against the mark since it was immensely pleasurable even if he were to touch it. I pressed my hands against his muscular chest and moved down around to caress his abs. He groaned in pleasure at the sensation and he lifted his head up so that his alluring reddish dark eyes captured mine, "Don't touch me like that, cupcake unless you're ready for us to mate."

Desire, want and live surged through me that I couldn't think straight, so I nodded and breathed out, "Yes, please."

His fangs started going back to normal, but his eyes stayed reddish dark as he studied me. He looked like he was debating on what to do and then a pained expression showed on his face as he murmured in his husky voice, "No, not now. You're in heat because of the mark and you're not thinking straight. We will mate when you're more comfortable and I want to make it more romantic for our first time together."

I moaned from desire and lifted my head up to press my lips against his.
