Jaded Hearts
Chapter 44

Taylor

The jolt from the elevator slamming to a stop would’ve knocked me off my feet if Matt’s delicious body hadn’t been pressed against my back, holding me up.

“Do you want me to show you, gorgeous? Right here?”

His hands were roaming freely over my body but never made contact with my skin. I needed these clothes off so that I could touch him, and he could touch me.

“Yes, show me …”

He lowered his head and bit down on my mark, making stars shoot before my eyes.

“f**k!”

“Hmmm, that’s not the word I was going for. Let’s try again.”

He reached around, unzipped my pants, and shoved his hand down the front of my panties, hitting my love button dead on. My knees buckled on contact, but he was probably expecting that if the arm that went around my waist was any indication. His fingers were skilled, blessed, magic! He knew the right speed and pressure needed to make my body instantly respond. Quick circles, around and around, and I could feel my juices flowing.

When he repositioned slightly and slipped two fingers inside me, I shut my eyes and just waited for the o****m to hit me. He knew exactly where to touch me, and the sensation of his fingertip flicking over my g-spot had me seeing stars. His arm moved upwards over my stomach, then across my breasts, ending with his hand around my throat. My head fell back on his chest, allowing him access to my neck while his fingers increased their speed and intensity down below.

“c*m for me, tesoro. I want to feel it.”

I was getting close, and I could feel that this was going to be a monster. Matt’s fingers never tired, and it only took maybe another thirty seconds before I was screaming his name at the top of my lungs.

“Matt!! Don’t stop … s**t, please …”

The hand that was around my throat joined its partner in my pants where he pinched down on my clit, making another even more powerful climax hit me. I couldn’t form words or thoughts. I couldn’t even stand anymore. His fingers kept moving and pinching until I was spent, and he was satisfied that he’d proved his point.

When he removed his hands, he looked at me through the mirror as he sucked my juices off his fingers. “You’re like the sweetest fruit, my love. My favorite flavor.”

I couldn’t take my eyes off him. He was hypnotizing. He then leaned over and released the stop on the elevator, starting our descent to the parking garage. By the time it stopped, he had my clothes back in place, and I shakily walked out to the truck.

“Take a nap, baby. When we get home, I plan to finish what we just started. I need to get at least a few more o*****s out of you before I’m done for the night.”

When we made it home, I went up for a shower, then met everyone downstairs for dinner. We decided on pizza, and when I walked into the dining room, I couldn’t believe how many boxes I saw stacked on the table.

What shocked me even more was that both Morgan and Tyson were at the table, laughing and talking. I stood in the doorway, watching them and remembering when we used to eat pizza and watch terrible horror movies, laughing at how bad the acting was.

Matt waved me over and patted the spot next to him.

“Whose decision was that?” I asked, pointing over to Tyson.

“Xander’s. He figured it would help Morgan to see him out and doing better, but he’s going back in the cells as soon as we’re done here. He’s not completely off the hook yet.”

Xander looked over my way and smiled. “Did you still want to have the initiation tonight? Morgan has been cleared to hang out with us for a few hours until she’s due back in her room, so I can take care of you both if you’re still up for it.”

“I’m in!” Morgan yelled from her spot at the table.

“Well, I guess I’m in too.”

“Alright, we’ll go up after dinner.”

Everyone began to dig in, with the exception of Morgan, who had to eat soup. She wasn’t happy about it but had no choice; no one wanted to give her anything that would slow down her healing. An hour later, ten extra-large pizzas were demolished, and all I wanted to do was sleep.

“No sleep yet, babe. Let’s get up to Xander’s office and make you official. Then you can pass out,” Matt said while pulling me to my feet.

“I ate way too much. My a*s is going to be the size of a house by the time this baby comes.”

“If you haven’t noticed, I love a woman with a big a*s, so eat all you want.” For emphasis, he smacked me hard on my left cheek, making me growl at the sensation.

“You might have to do that more often. I think I like it.”

“Cut it out, you two, and get upstairs. You’re worse than me now. How did that even happen?” Kade said as he pushed past us with Morgan in his arms.

She winked at me over his shoulder, making me laugh as I followed them up to the office. When we arrived, Alaia and Xander were behind his desk, and she had a huge golden dagger in her hand.

“Whoa, what are we going to do with that?” I asked, taking a small step back.

“Don’t worry, it’s just a small cut on your hand. It’ll heal in a few minutes,” Matt replied.

Xander looked at Morgan, then me before saying, “Who wants to go first? It will be quick and easy, I promise.”

Morgan and I looked at each other, and before I knew what was happening, I had taken a step forward towards the desk.

“I’ll go first.”

Xander and Alaia smiled at me, and Matt came and stood by my side.

“Taylor Adams, today, I Alpha Xander Black of the Blue Moon pack, open the doors for you to join us. I, along with my Luna, offer you shelter, family, and an eternal bond that will be with you for all your days. Do you hereby swear to honor your Alpha and Luna for the rest of your days and to the best of your abilities, as required of all members of the Blue Moon pack?”

“Yes, I swear to do so.”

“And do you swear to also respect and honor our Gamma, your mate, and protect his life, happiness, and wellbeing with your last breath, for the rest of your days, and to the best of your abilities, as also required of all members of the Blue Moon pack?”

“Yes, I swear to do so.”

Alaia took my right hand and placed a thin cut across the palm before doing the same to Xander’s. We then pressed our palms flat against one another’s, allowing the pack link to flow from Xander to me. My brain began to tingle, and it was like a thick fog clouded my vision. The voices of all the Blue Moon pack suddenly sounded off in my mind in welcome.

When the voices died down, and my vision cleared, Xander stood proud, smiling down at me. “It’s official now. Welcome to the family, Gamma.”
