Chapter 24

ALEXIA

Because I would rather be buried inside you than in any other woman"

His words kept on resounding in my head. Why would he say that? I'm his brother's mate and why is my wolf so jumpy? What's going on with me?

"My lord—"

"Do not say anything" he hushed me "I've longed for you for a very long time now Alexia. Ever since you came into this palace, you've gone into my head faster than any addictive wine in this land"

"But I'm your brother's mate. You're not supposed to say that to me" I pull my hands away from his forcefully as I tried to get up but he grabs me again.

"You're also my mate Alexia"

I turn to look at him and his face tells me that he isn't joking. He was being serious about this. Oh dear lord! I've always wondered why I've been attracted to both of them ever since I stepped into this palace. I thought that my wolf was prank on me. I thought that the goddess made a mistake but it's true. I wasn't just imagining things.

"How is that even possible?" My voice was already feeling froggy.

"That, I do not know but all I know is, you're my mate"

"Don't say that. I am not your mate" I try to break free but it's almost impossible. His grip on me is almost as strong as a rock. "You are lying to me and I won't take that. Allow me to finish your cleaning so that I can leave"

"Why don't you believe me?"

"Because it is not the truth. I cannot be mated to two men at the same time. It's preposterous and has never happened before" I say in my defense.

"But that doesn't mean that it's impossible. Is it?"

"Can I just change your bandages and go?" I say to him, completing ignoring his previous remark.

"Should I prove it to you then?" He suggests.

"I do not need proof of anything. You are not my mate" my wolf scratched at that statement.

Fred grinned and turned me around so that my back is facing his chest. He winced as I try to push away from him.

"Stay still" he ordered and i immediately stopped moving. I am always afraid whenever he uses his deep voice because it sounds like a growl.

"You are my mate Alexia and you know that it's true" he whispered to my ears. I shivered as I felt the goosebumps form on my skin. His tongue licked my earlobe and trailed down to my neck. He shifted my hair to the other side and places a kiss on my exposed neck.

"Ouuu" my lips parted as a tiny moan escaped my lips. I'm not supposed to feel like this. Why is it so right when it's supposed to be wrong?

He kissed and licked and sucked and I found myself wanting more. I didn't even know that part of my body is capable of giving me such intense pleasure. I was thrashing and he hasn't even done anything yet.

"I've always wanted to touch you Alexia." He growled in hunger but this one was different. It was as if he was fighting control. "I've thought of what you would taste like if I lick you, suck you and fuck you"

My wolf purred in excitement.

"This is wrong" I whispered in a voice that even surprised me. I'm supposed to be pushing him away but sadly I want him instead.

My wetness was already flooding through my legs at the impact of his touch on me.

He sniffed "I can smell you Alexia. You're wet" he growl-whispered into my ears as I pushed my head backwards. "You're intoxicating"

I have never felt this way before. Even with Asher. I am at ease with Fred and it's surprising.

"I want to taste you Alexia. Would you let me?" A statement filled with so many emotions that I can't decipher.

Before I could respond, he twirled me again so that I am now facing him. What sort of temptation is this?

Before he could say anything more, I dipped my head down and took his lips in a feverish kiss. The kiss was wild and hard that it sizzled me from head to toe. Why does he taste so good. A low growl erupted from his throat as I deepened the kiss. Hands trailing everywhere in a bid to get more.

I tried to clench my hands as I fought to keep my senses under control but there was no escaping from this Firestorm that he is igniting inside me.

"Why did you kiss me?" His deep voice spoke into my mouth.

"Because I want you as well" I breathed.

"Are you sure?" He gave me no chance to respond as he covered my lips with his again.

I felt my hunger escalate. I am becoming very addicted to this brain damaging kiss. My heart thudded against my chest and my womanhood throbbed but there was no way I was dwelling on that.

His big hands framed my face, pushing into my hair, holding me still as his tongue invaded into my mouth. It swirled around my tongue as it teased and stroked in and out.

I arched myself further into his arms as I felt myself getting helpless. The pleasure from his lips and tongue was enough to send me into a frenzy.

His hands moved further down to cup my breasts. I felt his thumb and forefinger circle on my swollen bud until it hardened more. He pressed and pulled till I was moaning breathily with each tug.

His lips broke the kiss and I opened my eyes slightly. I saw a face wearing a savage expression of pure lust. I wanted nothing more than to be buried inside them.

He picked me up and placed me on the bed like I weighed nothing. I was surprised that he could achieve such fest even with his injuries. He never ceases to amaze me.

He pulled off my nightie to expose my bare chest. He lowered his head on my swollen bud and covered his mouth around it.

I jerked. Pleasure soaring through me before it exploded.

He took the other one and gave it the exact same treatment. I held unto him as he sucked and licked till I was thrashing from beneath him.

Fred stopped what he was doing and gazed down on me.

"I was able to prove it to you wasn't I?" He asked all of a sudden.

"What?!"

"I won't go further Lexia till you ask me for it. The wolf might want you now but trust me, I am in very much control of myself and I won't do anything without your permission" he kissed my sweaty forehead before rolling down slowly from my body.

"Please help me with the bandages" he requested and i just stared at him in frustration. What just happened?
