-Rhys-

We need to talk.

Adira stood in front of me with crossed arms, flushed cheeks, swollen lips, and was breathing heavily. I wanted to smirk at her appearance feeling smug that I was the only one who could make her feel that way. Everything in me wanted to continue what we had started but knew I had a lot of explaining to do.

I sighed and ran a hand down my face rubbing the scruff on my face “Would you like to sit?”

“I’m fine standing. Just start talking, Rhys Carson.” She replied seeing right through me.

Right. I could tell I wasn’t going to be able to put this off any longer. Adira is a stubborn she-wolf and isn’t going to let us leave this room until I did some explaining.

“I had been Alpha for five years, Adira. An Alpha who hadn’t found his mate. The pack was getting anxious with the lack of a Luna. With our isolation it was merely impossible that I would replace my mate so it was decided that I would pick a she-wolf to declare my Luna. Erica was a close friend of mine, she was the obvious choice. As a warrior and someone the pack respected, she would have been an excellent Luna.” I say looking away from my mate. The last thing I wanted to see was the hurt on her face. I already felt guilty enough “You have to understand, the pack couldn’t go much longer without a Luna. You know the importance of that role. It was a last resort.”

“Did you love her?” Adira finally asked quietly.

“No. Not in the way you think.” I immediately responded, moving to hold her hands and pressed a kiss to her knuckles “Erica was a childhood friend, the love I have for her was one of a sister. Our mating would have been a loveless one.”

Adira merely nodded and tightened her hold on my hands “I hope you understand why I’m upset. No woman wants to hear that the love of her life was once engaged.”

“I do Ad, but I hope you understand that I will never have any feelings for anyone but you. What I had with Erica was just something of duty. I love you and only you.” I cupped her face in my hands and peered down at her. The hurt was evident in her emerald eyes and I wanted to do everything in my power to take that away.

“I love you.” She responded and sighed deeply “I’m sorry for all that has happened these past few hours Rhys. We’re going to figure this out.”

My love for Adira was continuing to grow more and more with each day. This stubborn, strong, and beautiful woman was willing to put her life on the line for me and my pack, strangers she had never met. I was aware that she could handle herself but I couldn’t help the fear that consumed me at the thought of harm coming to her. If anything happened to her, I would truly lose myself.

“I’m afraid Adira.” I admit sitting on the bed leaning my elbows against my thighs “Something about this just doesn’t feel right.”

“What do you mean?” Adira asks putting a hand to my arm gently, her brows furrowed in confusion.

“Victor has gotten smarter, more powerful. A man with nothing can’t have that much power. I think he’s having outside help.” I say thoughtfully. It was true, Victor Chan was left with nothing when he was banished, Lazarus died not long after his son joined him. With low ranked wolves as his followers it was impossible for him to even cause an attack like that in the first place.

“You mentioned Lazarus turned to witches for help, do you think Victor has done the same?” Adira asked.

The memory of purple eyes and a cloud of powder flashed in my thoughts. That moment was still fuzzy in my mind but I had no doubt I knew that was when I lost my memories. There was no other explanation, witches were involved.

“I think so.” I held her hand in mine “I-I know that’s how my memories were lost. Victor must have gotten another coven to do his bidding.”

“This changes everything Rhys.” Adira sighs tiredly “We don’t stand a chance against witches without help. We need to call River, he’ll know what to do.”

“I agree. We will take care of it in the morning.” I say not wanting to talk more on the subject, then lifted my head to look up at her “Do you forgive me? About Erica I mean.”

Adira chuckled and shook her head “There’s nothing to forgive Rhys. I understand the situation besides, you’re fully mated to me. I’m not worried about anything. You’re mine.” She gave me a teasing smile and brought our lips together roughly. I knew what she was doing, Adira was staking her claim and was reminding me that I was indeed hers.

****

I eagerly kissed back putting a hand to the back of her head keeping her close to me. She giggled as I moved her to lay on her back without breaking our kiss. My lips traveled from cheeks down to her neck where my mouth met her mark.

Adira’s gasp echoed through the room and I felt a surge of lust flare through me. It was time we continued where we left off earlier. A low growl of satisfaction left my mouth and I continued to suck on the mark until my mate was a puddle in my arms.

“I love you.” I whisper against her neck as I run my hands down her down and begin my work to remove her clothing. With having only one night with Adira, the urge to mate with her was strong. The primal side of me wanted nothing more than to keep up locked away in the room for days. I knew we only had hours and I would make the most of the time we had.

“I love you.” She moaned out as I practically tore the fabric of her top revealing the black bra she wore underneath. Together we worked to get the rest of her clothes and my own off.

I groaned in pleasure as her hand wandered down to the hardness inside my boxers. Her soft small hand wrapped around my shaft and began to pump gently. I threw my head back and relished the feeling of the movements of her hand “Fuck Adira.”

Her lips rose to a devious smirk as she continued pumping my rock hard dick. I rocked my hips against her hand grunting with each motion. Goddess above this woman was a temptress.

Knowing this woman could get me off with just her hand I pushed her away from my cock and began my descent down towards the one place I had been craving since our initial mating. I kissed down her tan toned body making sure I paid attention to the spot on her thighs that made her squirm.

Her soft moans fueled me to continue towards her mound “Rhys!” She whimpered as my mouth met her wet folds. Everything about Adira was so sweet. I couldn’t get enough of the way she tasted. Adira’s hand gripped my hair and pressed me closer to her pussy. I smirked against her lips and ran my tongue up and down her folds only stopping to suck against her clit.

Slowly I took my finger and inserted inside of her and began moving my hand in and out of her. Adira arched her body upwards trying to bring herself much more closer to me. Keep up with my increasing pace inside her wet folds I lean up to latch onto her dusty pink nipple. Her reaction was well worth it. Her body began quivering and I knew she was getting close. “Come for me Adira.” I say lowering back down and once against attached my mouth to her clit to bring her over the edge.

“Rhys! Oh goddess!” She moaned, throwing her head back as she creamed against my mouth. Not wasting a drop of her sweet nectar I sucked and drank in every bit of her.

Sitting up on my hunches I took sight of the most erotic sight I’ve ever seen. Adira’s heavy lidded eyes met mine and her breathing came out in short pants bringing my attention to her full breasts . I took in her swollen lips and the desire etched on her face. She was so beautiful.

“Fuck you’re so beautiful” I growled out putting myself in between her legs and bringing our lips together in a heated kiss.

Adira ran her hands through my hair softly tugging at the ends. Her long legs wrapped around my hips and I knew she wanted more but I would make her beg me. “What do you want Adira?” I whisper huskily against her lips.

“I want you Rhys.” She replies kissing up my neck.

“You want me to what little mate? What do you want?” I growl out running my hands down the length of her body.

My eyes fluttered shut as I felt the electric tingles of her lips moving towards my ear “I want you to fuck me.”

My eyes snapped open, no doubt they were black with lust and sat back spreading her legs wider for me “As you wish Alpha.”

Not wasting a moment I took hold of my hard cock and pressed into her warm wet pussy. We both let out moans of pleasure from joining as one once again. I don’t think I would ever get used to being inside of my mate. Everything about her was perfect and I will always feel grateful to get to be the only man to have her this way.

“Oh Rhys.” She mewled as she raked her nails down my pack as I continued to thrust into her. “Faster. Please.”

“So polite little mate.” I tease cupping her breasts in my hands as my hips snapped against hers. Not wanting to deny such a sweet request I began to speed up.

“Yes! Yes! Yes!” Adira’s moans grew louder and louder, her sounds of utter bliss were fueling me like none other. The wet slick sound of our bodies slapped against each other echoed throughout the room. It was erotic and fucking sexy.

“I’m so close, Rhys.” Adira cried out arching into me. I growled out feeling myself reaching my own climax. Reaching down I began to rub my fingers against her clit in a circular motion bringing her over the cliff with me.

I felt her walls tighten against my dick and knew it wouldn’t be long. The familiar fire in my abdomen, I increased my pace. “Look at me Adira.” I ordered not slowing down my movements. Her green eyes meet mine and I could see the dark swirls of lust in them “I want to look at you while you come around my cock.”

My words must have been her breaking point because she threw her head back and came hard around me. It didn’t take long for me to join her. With a long groan I released my seed inside of her “Fuck!” My hips began slowing down until I collapsed on top of her.

****

Not wanting to crush her with my weight I rolled off of her and laid in my spot on the bed. Our chests heaved up and down from our activities. “That was.” I breathed out.

“Better than the first time.” She continued with a giggle turning her head to look at me.

“I agree.” I chuckled, leaning down to peck her lips “I love you Adira Carson.”

She hummed against my lips and put a hand to my cheek “Mmmm, I could get used to hearing that name.”

“Good because you’re mine forever.” I wink, making her roll her eyes and snuggle closer to me.

“I guess I can accept that..” She replied sleepily with a smile on her face. Knowing we had some clean up to do I rose from the bed before she could get too comfortable and went into our bathroom to wet a towel.

Adira sighed with happiness as I ran the warm cloth in between her legs cleaning up the mess I created and pressed a soft kiss to the inside of her thigh.

Returning to the bed after turning off all the lights, I pulled her naked body closer to mine enjoying the feel of her skin against my own. “We’ll get through this Rhys, together.” Adira whispered into the darkness.

I pressed a kiss to her forehead “Together.”
