Chapter 40: Kinsley’s Acceptance Kinsley I’d forgotten how grueling running patrols is. It’s eight hours of nearly non-stop running and since I’m a Beta and running with a bunch of male warriors, I have to set an example, not only that I’ m worthy of being a Beta but also that I’m just as strong as any male in this pack. I’m tired, not having slept well with Lucas out running patrols all night. While I’ve been struggling with intimacy between us, realize that I miss him when he’s gone. Now that I’ve invited him back to our bed, I really miss feeling his arms around me at night. When we finish our patrol, I shift and reach for my clothes. I hear a wolf-whistle behind me and I turn, seeing one of our warriors staring at me. Ogling me, really. “Knock it off, Trent. You’re being disrespectful,” one of the other patrols says. Trent shrugs nonchalantly and opens his mouth to say something else. Before he can, his eyes move to something behind me, and I turn, seeing Lucas standing at the back of the packhouse, waiting for me, watching out for me. I see that he’s holding a shirt for me, and he steps off the patio, heading my way. “Don’t know why he bothers. We’ve all seen you anyway,” Trent sneers quietly enough that only I hear him as he passes me. 288 Vouchers “Good afternoon, Beta,” he says cheerfully as he passes Lucas. “Trevor,” he says, his eyes not leaving mine. “Kinsley,” he says, pulling the shirt over my head. “I have my own clothes, Lucas,” I say, but I take a deep breath, letting his scent of the rainforest fill my senses and relax me after Trevor’s comments. “I noticed you slept in my shirt last night,” he says, wrapping an arm around my waist, but not pulling me to him. He’s always so careful with me, ever since the day he marked me. But I’ve decided that it’s time for me to put the past behind me. I need to start trusting my mate to care for me, to protect me. So, for the first time in our relationship, I lean into him.

His eyes instantly brighten, and he tightens his arm around me, wrapping the second around me as well, just holding me. We stand like that for a while before he kisses the top of my head. “How was your run?” “Exhausting,” I say. “But no scent of Alphas or she-wolves.” “Well, the she-wolves won’t know that we’re a sanctuary yet, but I’m glad to hear that there are no Alphas. And speaking of Alphas, Alpha Calvin is sending 20 warriors to help us run patrols, so we have some time to reorganize the patrol schedules. “Oh, that’s great news,” I say walking inside. “Yes, and Alpha Hunter and Luna Sophie won’t be home until late. They are meeting with Alpha Calvin and Alpha Dutton 288 Vouchers tonight at Alpha Carter’s pack.” “That’s excellent! Do you think they’ll stand with us?” I ask him. “Hunter said that Alpha Carter has already agreed, so I have hope that the others will too. Alpha Calvin is mated to Lunal Sophie’s sister, and Alpha Dutton hasn’t found his mate yet, but he’s at least not one of the Alphas out hunting for a mate.” “Do you think it’s safe for me let the she-wolves know our borders are open? I can leave a note when go to drop off the food today,” I ask Lucas. “Alpha Hunter was pretty clear, Kins. I think it’s safe. But I want you to be careful. My legs are stiff after running all night. I’m guessing yours will be too and I still don’t like you going alone.” “I’ll go now before it gets dark,” I tell him. He holds onto my hand. “Hurry home to me, Kins.” I nod and turn to head upstairs. Every time he says something like that, my heart melts a little bit more. Not for the first time, I wonder what it would have been like for us if our mating night had been like Alpha Hunter’s and Luna Sophie’s. When I get to the mountain, I see that the food is gone. I’m glad because the scent of sex and Alpha Hunter still lingers in this area, but if the she-wolves are hungry enough, that won’t deter them, at least not until they have food in their stomachs. I leave the food and the note that we are

now offering sanctuary. I also added that Sophie Meyers has found her mate, our Alpha, but he mated her privately and she is now the Luna of our pack. I’m hoping that they trust my words enough to at least check out our pack. 16.59 1288 Vouchers When I return, Lucas and I have dinner and once Alpha Hunter and Luna Sophie return, we head to our room. It’s good to know that at least two more Alphas are on our side and while I would have liked to talk to Luna Sophie more, I’m exhausted and as Lucas expected, I’m very sore. “I think I need to start training more,” I tell him as we walk into our room. “Are you still sore?” “No, but it took several hours to wear off,” he says. “Why don’t you get ready for bed and lie down, I’ll massage your legs.” I do as he suggests, and he begins massaging my legs. I know he wants to touch me more than I’m comfortable allowing, so this is a nice compromise, and my mate’s fingers are magic. I try to be good, but a moan slips out occasionally. I can see that he’s getting aroused and while it makes me nervous that he might want something more, he doesn’t act on it. I feel bad for my mate. I feel his arousal pressed against my back every night when we go to sleep and every morning when we wake. I know it must be hard for him, but even now, he doesn’t push me. He accepts what I’m willing to give him. “How’s that?” he asks me nearly an hour later. “So much better,” I tell him. “Good, we should get some sleep,” he says, moving up to lay behind me. Yep, he’s hard as a rock. I feel like I want to thank him, in a way that might be more meaningful to him and push me in my desire to show more trust in him, so I turn in his arms and rest my hand on his shoulder “Kinsley?” 1659 1288 Vouchers “I thought…I mean, I’m not ready to have sex, but I thought, maybe we could kiss for a bit before we go to sleep?”

“I’d like that. If at any point it gets to be more than you want, let me know,” he says. I nod and tilt my head up to his. His warm lips press softly against mine. He takes his time, slowly deepening the kiss and when his tongue licks the seam of my lips, I open for him, letting him slide his tongue into my mouth. I love the way he tastes, fresh and clean, like the forest after the rain. I hear myself whimper against him and he growls softly in return. I can feel my body responding to my mate, heat pooling in my core, making my body crave more. I begin pressing myself closer against him, wanting to ease the ache between my thighs. “Will you let me help you with that?” he asks me, pulling away enough to look at me in the dark room. “I don’t…” “Just my hands. Nothing else. I can smell your arousal, Kinsley. It’s making me crazy, so I’m guessing that your body is craving a release.” I nod. “Let me give you what your body wants,” he says softly. I nod and he slides his hand down my body, gently running his fingers under the silk pajama top that I’m wearing. The feel of his fingers against my skin makes my body feel like it’s on fire, desperately needing a release. 17:00 – Chapter 40: Kinsley’s Acceptance 288 Mouchers He continues kissing me, shifting so that his hand can move down into my sleep shorts. He gently massages his way to my core, his hand sliding between my thighs. “You’re soaking wet, Kins,” he growls against my mouth before. taking the kiss even deeper. When his fingers find my c***t, I gasp, looking up at Lucas. I “Will you unbutton your top for me, I want to see you, I want to taste you.” His fingers are working magic on my c**t, and I open my legs giving him better access while unbuttoning my top. When I’m done, I look up at him.

“Open it for me. Let me see you, Kinsley.” I do as he asks, and he gently pushes against my hips, pushing me onto my back. “Can we take these shorts off? I promise I won’t push for anything more. I just want to see you.” I reach my hands down, pulling off my shorts. My heart is racing and I’m not sure if it’s because of what Lucas is doing, or my own fear that I’m struggling to keep hold of. When they’re off, I look back up at him. His eyes are devouring my body. “So beautiful, Kinsley.” He leans forward and runs his nose over my throat, down my chest and to my breasts as his fingers continue to move in slow circles around my c**. I put my fingers into his thick, curly hair and he looks up at me, his tongue flicking out and licking my nipple. I arch up, nearly pressing my breast into his mouth. 17.00 Chapter 40: Kinsley’s Acceptance “Mmm, so sensitive.” “Yes,” I say watching his dark eyes as they hold my gaze. “What do you want, Kinsley?” “…” “Do you want me to make you come?” “Yes.” 1208 Vouchers “Mmmm, I want that too,” he says before sucking my nipple into his mouth, his warm tongue moving the in the same circles that his fingers are. “Lucas!” He growls against my breast, making me arch again. This time, he takes my breast, sucking on my nipple as his fingers begin moving faster. “Oh, Lucas,” I say and a moment later I feel like my body is exploding, pleasure rocketing through me as I grip onto Lucas’ hair, holding him against me as my body jerks with pleasure. His fingers begin to slow and when I start to come down and think that we’re done, he slides his fingers inside me.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

He looks up at me, pulling off of my nipple. “Tell me if this is too much,” he says, his fingers sliding in and out of me. “No,” I say, making him smile. “Good. I like watching you come undone for me, Kinsley. Let’s see how many more times I can make you come.”
