Omega in the Sand - Aria Grace Page 0,41

on them. I should have called Farron myself and forced the confirmation a whole lot earlier. Instead, I let myself get complacent.” He steps toward me again. “I should’ve been paying more attention.”

“I guess that’s hard to do when you’ve got half naked omegas all over the place,” I tease, trying to turn the conversation to more pleasant things. I pull back the blankets and reveal that, even though I'm wearing his shirt, I'm not wearing anything else.

A grin spreads across his lips as he slowly lets the towel around his waist fall to the floor. At long last, I'm finally able to get a good look at him in the light of day.

"I knew you were hot, but damn…" I grin as I rake my eyes across his body. I knew he was muscular, but his body would put Adonis to shame.

"Your turn," he says as he moves to the edge of the bed.

I don't have to be told twice. I pull the t-shirt over my head and toss it to the side. This isn't the first time I've been fully naked in front of him and the thong I've been wearing all week doesn't leave anything to the imagination, but for some reason I still blush beneath his gaze.

"You're beautiful," he says as he gently cups my face in his hands. "I've been wanting to tell you that since I first set eyes on you."

"Then why didn't you?" I tease.

"I could tell you a million different reasons," he says, pressing his forehead to mine. "I always had some excuse for holding back and not saying what I truly wanted to. It wasn't until last night, when you told me that we wouldn't have to meet up anymore that I realized how much I needed you. You've kept me sane this week."

I tilt my head up and, for the first time, press my lips to his. He kisses me back, slowly at first, but soon his hunger consumes him. His mouth claims mine and he melts into me. Breathless, I loop my arm around his neck and tuck him backwards onto the bed with me.

Despite his size, he glides forward gracefully and I find myself on my side, cradled against his chest. His arms coil around me and his lips continue to ply me with kisses.

"You know…I think I could get used to this," I muse when he finally leans back to look into my eyes.

"You're not the only one," he says, sliding his hands down my body to caress my ass. "I've been longing to hold you like this."

"Duke…" my voice trails off as my heart skips a beat. I understand something now that I didn't before and it scares me a little bit.

"Yes?" he asks. A dopey, almost drunken, smile plays across his lips.

"I think I love you."

Duke's expression softens. He kisses my forehead and then my nose and then my lips. When he leans back again, I see something in his eyes that's mirrored in my soul.

"I think I love you too."

My chest feels like it's about to burst as I push forward and kiss him forcefully. He rolls onto his back, dragging me with him. I straddle him, leaning across his broad chest and kissing him over and over again as my cock begins to harden. This euphoric mixture of lust and love tingles in the pit of my stomach and makes my balls ache.

Duke's hands caress my body, sliding down my lower back before pausing at my ass. I grin against his lips as his fingers begin to press against my asshole. I let out a little gasp of pleasure at the intrusion. Without the aid of my overactive heat cycle, my ass is a little slower to get warmed up, so I'm grateful for the help.

I grind my cock against his growing erection as he continues to finger me. Our kisses never ceasing for more than a moment. I can't get enough of him. We've fucked every night for a week and yet I feel like this is the first time. Every movement and motion is special to me. Every touch and caress carries a meaning and a promise that wasn't there before.

He's my alpha.

"I think I'm ready," I breathe as I slowly sit up. My ass is slick and fully relaxed. The familiar ache has returned. I need to be filled by his cock.

"Good," he says with a grunt of satisfaction. "I don't know if you've noticed, but so am I."

I chuckle.
