Chapter 60 I needed one more.


Leona

We did not move for a long time. Just held each other like nothing else existed. I wanted everything to feel that easy all the time. No problems. No mess. But I knew better.

I should have been angry at him. But instead, I just let him have me again. Maybe I was the problem this whole time. Not him. He got me hooked on his heat, and now I could not quit even if I tried.

I pulled away from him. That shook Arel out of his own head. He put me down right away, and I stumbled around trying to fix my dress.

Shit. I had nothing on under there. Why did he have to rip it off like that?

"What is the rush?" He laughed soft while pushing my hair behind my ear. His thumb ran across my cheek.

I looked at the floor. I could not meet his eyes as I straightened my skirt. My face got hot from his fingers.

Those damn sparks again.

"I need to go back. People might wonder where I went." I said it quiet and easy.

"They are fine. Let them have fun. I want to get you cleaned up fir…"

"No. I am going back." I did not let him finish. My voice got louder as I pushed at him. Just enough to turn around and head for the door.

But he grabbed my wrist and spun me around before I could leave.

"Run with me." He put his face down to mine until our noses touched. His breath smelled like mint and felt soft on my skin.

"What?" I choked on the word. I knew having him this close always wrecked me.

"Rogue wants to run with Rain. It has been too long since we ran together." He turned his head and brushed his lips along my cheek.

My body wanted to say yes. It always did. But I could not.

So I held my ground. I stepped back and looked right into his eyes. "I am tired. Ask me another time."

He did not think I would say no. He just stood there.

So I took my chance and walked away. I left the door open behind me.

I hurried into the bathroom on the first floor to wash my hands and my mouth. As much as I wanted to keep his taste and his smell on me, I could not face my father or my brother with Arel all over me.



Arel

Did she really just leave after what we did?

I stood there like an idiot. My hair was a mess. My shirt was a mess. And I was still naked from the waist down.

My mate walked out on me like what we shared meant nothing.

Rogue howled inside my head. The pain was too much for him. Our mate said no to him personally.

I made a fist and slammed my knuckles into the wall. Then I went to grab my pants.

I thought about washing off her smell. But I decided not to. Everyone in the pack would know about us soon anyway. No use hiding it. And I wanted every guy to stay the hell away from her.

I went outside. The party was still going. Mostly the young people were left.

When I got to the middle of the field, I saw her in the corner with Ethan. They looked like they were fighting. Ethan was red in the face, but my girl just stood there with her arms crossed, rolling her eyes at her brother.

I knew they were fighting about me. I decided to go over there. But my Beta grabbed my arm and pulled me another way.

"Damn it. You smell just like her. No wonder Ethan is furious. Do not go over there if that is what you are thinking." He was scolding me like a child. I just scowled back.

"Why not? I am going to tell Ethan off. He needs to grow up and let Leona make her own choices. She is not a kid anymore." I was annoyed. Ethan was always getting in the way.

"Do not. Leona already handled it. I heard her tell him this would be the last time. She said she would stay away from you. There is no point in starting another fight after she told him you two are done fooling around." He looked uncomfortable telling me this.

"What did you say?" I asked. I barely stopped myself from growling at him.

I did not see this coming. My hands went to my head and pulled at my hair. Then a growl ripped out of me.

Everyone looked at me. Everyone except her. She would not turn around. Ethan just shot me dirty looks.

She is done with me. She is fucking done with me. She gave me one last fuck, and now she is quitting.

My feet moved on their own. I walked past everyone in the pack house. I kicked the big vase in the hallway. It flew into the concrete wall and broke into pieces. That was exactly how my heart felt.



Leona

I left Ethan and went straight home. I saw Arel walking away, and he looked furious. Because of me.

I just said no to him and Rogue. I said no to my own wolf too. Rain cried inside my head for our mate. She wanted to run with him so bad. She hated me for saying no.

But not now. Some other time. Maybe.

I never said no to Rogue. But I had to. If I wanted to keep any of my pride and not let Arel walk all over me, I needed to learn how to turn him down.

I loved him. I knew that now. But he needed to understand I was not his toy. And I had no idea how to make him see that before I lost myself completely. Arel was like a drug. No matter how many times I told myself he was bad for me and my sanity, I always fell right back the second I saw him.

Dad was already home. Some of the older people left early and let the young ones keep partying. But I had no energy to stay. Plus, I had no underwear on. One wrong move and I would flash my ass or worse. And I knew I smelled like sex.

I just wanted to lie down and rest.

Fighting with Ethan only made me more tired.

I got under my blanket and closed my eyes. I tried to block out every memory from tonight. But my stupid mind and my stupid wolf kept showing me highlights of me and the Alpha together.

After what Arel and I did tonight, I was lucky I could still walk straight. He was an animal in bed. Not that it surprised me. He was a werewolf. An Alpha.

And I was not complaining.

I loved the way he fucked me. Nice and slow. Hard and fast.

The way his hands touched me. The way his lips licked and kissed every part of me. He brought me somewhere I did not even know existed before him. He could set my body on fire in one second.

Damn this. I should be sleeping. But instead, my hand went under my underwear. My fingers found how wet I was. Having two orgasms tonight was not enough.

I needed one more.

I closed my eyes and bit my bottom lip. I spread my legs wider. My fingers rubbed where I was throbbing while I thought about my Alpha and all the wild ways he took me.
