Suddenly I felt a lot of guilt, although it's not my fault that Devin bit me. The first tears were now running down my cheeks.
"Did you want it?" the beta asked sympathetically. I didn't know him like that at all, because he had always been pretty dismissive towards me.
I shake my head in response while continuing to sob. "He just bit me like that. I couldn't even defend myself at that moment." When I think back to that moment, something deep inside me breaks again.
"And...And have you, you know...closed the connection?" Lucas asked again. Something like hope flared up in his eyes, which gave me courage again, even though I didn't understand why.
I wiped the tears from my face before answering. "No. Luckily for me he has too big an ego and wanted to wait until he begged him to sleep with him." Upon my reply Steven immediately growled again. Apparently he didn't like the idea of Devin and I sharing the bed at all. But I can't complain, because I didn't like the idea myself.
"Well, everything's fine then," said the alpha, clapping his hands happily.
Steven and I looked at him confused. What does he mean by that? Nothing is good. I was forcibly tagged by someone else.
"The connection is not complete. With this, Steven can simply tag you again and you will close your connection. The thing is done. Think of it as a kind of engagement. The bite was the engagement and the sex is the marriage," said the beta, noticing our questioning looks. Why did everyone know about this but Steven and I?
"Now don't look like that. One could have guessed. It's not for nothing that there are two components to completing a fellowship.", the alpha growled amused. "So and now back to you, Silva. Your brother has already informed me about the hunters and Devin. However, I might still be missing information. that as soon as you are well you will tell me all about her plans."
I nodded. Naturally. I wanted to warn you anyway, so I certainly won't withhold this useful information.
"Well, I suggest we all go to bed now. After all, it's still the middle of the night.", the older Dr. Malcolm now suggested. Shortly afterwards everyone left the room and the light went out again. Now Seven and I were alone here. Finally...
"Did he touch you?" Steven asked after several minutes of silence.
"Are you sure you want to know?" I asked, knowing that if I say this, Steven is about to freak out. However, we both need rest. We both have serious injuries and should rest. Because he is now upset, that would only be unnecessary stress, because he can't change it now anyway.
"So he..." Steven, as expected, gave a short growl before continuing. "I WILL KILL HIM. I SWEAR IT TO YOU."
"Please calm down."
"I can't. Your smell makes me think only of him. I want him dead." Steven kept talking and getting more and more angry, but I didn't care anymore. I had to calm him down.
Steven didn't get it at all, but then I lay down next to him under the covers. When he realized what I was doing, he immediately stopped talking.
"I'm sorry," he said now and pulled me closer to his body.
"Tag me," I said confidently. Judging by the way he looked, he wasn't expecting that.
"What?" Steven suddenly sounded totally confused, but also nervous. He swallowed before saying "What?" asked.
"Tag me. You're bitching about me smelling like someone else, so just change that."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes," I answered in a whisper. "I'm sure from the start." And I meant every word seriously. Also, I didn't want to risk Devin kidnapping me again and then really tagging me completely.
Steven pulled me into his arms before he started kissing me. He kissed, as always, softly and with passion. It made its way from my lips down to my neck. When he reached my neck, he stopped again. Instead of continuing to send his hot kisses, which sent thousands of sparks flying through my body each time, he started to growl loudly.
Startled by his sudden mood swing, I wanted to push him away slightly, but Steven grabbed my shoulders and the next moment I felt a searing pain at my previous mark.
Steven lifted his head, which was previously on the back of my neck, to look me in the eye. There was a little blood on his lips, but that didn't stop me from kissing him. I sealed our lips together and kissed him with all my love. But suddenly heat spread in my neck, which then spread throughout my body, right down to my middle.
I was suddenly very hot. I was hot, hot for sex. It was worse than a full moon.
With a jerk, I turned Steven over so I was sitting on top of him. With him, too, I could already feel a clear bar under me. So that's exactly how he felt.
Our breathing quickened as we looked deep into each other's eyes.
I started kissing him more. I clawed at his hospital shirt, which I tore off my mate in the next few seconds. These things were way too thin anyway and not a hindrance. Steven did the same to me and faster than I could look I was sitting naked on top of Steven.
I continued to kiss his mouth and then worked my way down his chest, over his six pack abs and finally down his long erect shaft. I ran my tongue along its entire length once before finally taking its head into my mouth and licking it. Steven, meanwhile, clutched his hands in my hair. But he didn't force me to do anything, he let me take the lead.
So I decided to take it completely in my mouth. I sank his shaft all the way into my mouth before Steven abruptly yanked me away from him. In a flash, he turned us so that he was now on top.
I was about to ask what that was about, since I hadn't even started properly, when a slight pain began to spread in my abdomen. At first I didn't know what happened so quickly, but then Steven's hips moved forward a bit and I realized that he had sunk into me. And man, was it an incredible feeling to be so closely connected to my mate. Everything around me was suddenly so intense. Steven's skin on mine, the tingling that comes from our touch and the pleasure only...
Steven pressed into me again with the rest of his length before moaning loudly. Then he stopped and looked me in the eye intensely and a bit startled.
"I'm sorry. I didn't even ask-" I cut him off by sealing my lips to his again. I pulled away and smiled at my mate.
"Stop apologizing." After I said that, Steven pulled out of me again, only to thrust in again. It hurt again, but not as badly as the first time. And despite how easy it was pain, it was a pleasant and wonderful feeling of connection, a connection that goes unto death.
Again and again Steven pulled out of me only to thrust in again. He repeated this at an ever faster pace. Then Steven took a hand and guided it down to my tender spot. When he touched my bud I jumped in pleasure and only now realized how close I was to my first orgasm.
Steven didn't spare me but kept stimulating my bud. He increased his pace more and more. We both started moaning. The feeling of sinking into me with his full length was simply intoxicating.
I was the first to come. Suddenly everything in me tensed up during this intense orgasm. Steven's thrusts, which he still pushed into me at a fast pace, only prolonged my orgasm even more. The next moment Steven collapsed on top of me.
He moaned as well, while he slowly pushed his shaft into me and pumped me full of his sperm. I felt his hot juice spread all over my abdomen before he finally slipped out and dropped next to me. He pulled me to his chest and buried his head in my neck, where he grunted in satisfaction with his work.
"Finally you smell like me," he muttered contentedly, albeit a bit tired.
"And I love you too."
Steven raised his head again to look me straight in the eye.
"Say that again."
"I love you."
"I love you." He replied and I happily snuggled into his chest again.
I really did. I found my mate and let him tag me completely. I've never been happier in my entire life.
