Chapter 71: Simon

“It’s just that…” She put her fork down and bit her lip, killing me as she did it. “If that’s what you normally go for, then I’m definitely not your type.”

“Is that what you are worried about?” I let out a breath.

“She’s blond, tall and has big tits.”

“Obviously, you are my type because you are my mate. My Luna. The person I love.” I took her hand. “I have no desire to look at anyone else, let alone be with anyone else. You are stuck with me for life.”

She rolled her eyes.

“What did you do to her? It was like she couldn’t move.” I attempted to change the subject.

She chuckled. “I bound her.” She picked up her fork and stabbed a piece of broccoli. “Was that too much?”

“No, that was perfect. It shut her up.” I laughed.

“I didn’t think before I acted. I need to learn the rights from wrongs if I’m going to be your Luna.”

“No if’s darlin’ you are the Luna.” I lifted her hand to my lips and kissed the back of it.

The rest of dinner went without a hitch. She had her fill and dessert. She was happy. We put our plates in the kitchen sink and made our way back to our room. I sat on the bed and grabbed the remote. “What do you normally like to watch?” I started flipping through the movies.

“Horror.” Violet said as she sat next to me.

“Are you serious?” I stared at her.

She laughed. “No, I’m not serious. I don’t mind horror, but I prefer romance or thrillers.”

“You got it.” I started to flip through the romance to locate a good movie to watch.

“I’m going to change into pajamas.” She walked to the dresser and grabbed her pj’s and went to the bathroom.

I took off my shoes and let the cursor land on a movie and I let the trailer play. I pulled off my sweater that I was wearing and pulled off my jeans and threw them to the now empty space her clothes once sat. This movie didn’t look bad, good choice on my part.

I went and leaned against the headboard, waiting for Violet to come out. When she did, my jaw dropped. She still had her sweater on that she wore to dinner but what she wore below was a pair of short shorts. When she walked past, I could see the bottom of her ass hanging out. This was the most skin I have seen of her.

She turned around and stopped. “What?”

“Nothing, it’s just that I have a very hot mate.” I shrugged.

She rolled her eyes. “Shut up.” She said trying to hide her smile.

She climbed into bed and sat on her side of the bed. I clicked the remote to start the movie. “You know this won’t work right?”

Her face dropped as she stared at me. In a weak voice she asked, “What won’t work?”

“You being so far away. That won’t work for me.”

Violet let out a breath.

“What did you think I was meaning?”

“That you came to your senses and wanted out of this mate thing with me.”

My face went serious. “Violet, I would never think or say anything like that. You are my mate, and you are the only one I want. Do you understand?”

She gave a slight nod.

“Now get your sexy ass over her.” I said pointing to the spot next to me.

She rolled her eyes at me again but scooted over to where she was nestled against my chest. I let my hand rest against her hip. I fought the temptation to let it wander down and cup her ass. The movie played but I didn’t pay attention. How could I when I had my mate next to me and the electricity surging through us distracting me.

I looked down at her as her eyes were glued to the tv screen. She sensed my staring and looked up at me. She gave me a slight smile. I took her mouth with mine. I felt the fire in that kiss as it burned through my body, engulfing me in an inferno.

Her hand drifted across my chest. With the hand that lay on her hip, I pushed her body on top of mine. She, no doubt, could feel how turned on I was. I ached to be inside her. Her tongue played with mine, in an epic battle to maintain dominance. I held onto her ass; I finally gave into my urges. Letting my hand hold her in a death grip.

Her hand played with my hair, now out of its ordinary bun. Every time her skin touched my skin electricity flowed through us, urging our union on.

Her mouth stopped and she pulled away. She looked down at me, her face serious. My heart sank. “What’s wrong?” I said in between gasps.

“Nothing.” She bit her lip and turned her head away, avoiding my eyes. Her cheeks-tinged pink.

“Really, what’s wrong?” I took a hand and placed it on her cheek, moving her face to look at me. “You can tell me.

“It’s just…” She topped and averted her eyes again. I sat there and waited, not moving until she finished her sentence. “It’s just that…I’ve never.” She took a deep breath. “I’ve never been with anyone.” She still had her head turned, but her eyes glanced back at me.

My skipping heart slowed back to normal. I chuckled. “Is that all?”

“Don’t laugh. It’s not funny.”

I couldn’t help but laugh again. “You really scared me for a moment. I thought it was going to be something more serious.”

“That is serious.” Her eyebrows furrowed and her voice softened.

“I was more so thinking you were going to tell me you were going to die in a month or something. Not that you were a virgin.” I exhaled. And took her face in my hand. She closed her eyes, her cheeks still pink. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. This just means we take it slow and when you’re ready we can have sex.”

With her face still in my hand, she glanced down at her hands on my chest. “You’re ok with that?” she said still in a small voice.

I tilted her head so she would look at me. “Of course. You are my mate. I don’t want to rush you or make you feel uncomfortable. We have a lifetime and when you are ready it’s going to be perfect.”

The concern in her eyes slowly melted away. “Thank you.”

I leaned forward and gave her a quick kiss. “Of course.” I smiled. “If it’s alright with you, I’m going to take a cold shower and we can finish the movie.”

She rolled off and lay next to me. “Ok.” She folded her hands on her lap, but still looked concerned.

I kissed her on the side of her head. “I’ll be right back.” I stood from the bed and walked to the shower. I turned on the cold water and let it run for a moment before I took off my briefs and stepped in. I let the freezing water hit me. I leaned my arm against the wall and let the water run down my back, soaking my hair. I tried not to think of how sexy Violet looked in those shorts. Or how much electricity was bouncing between us. My dick wasn’t going to cooperate. It was still hard, wanting her. I stood under the water, letting my skin go numb waiting.

I heard a noise coming from the bathroom door. I looked over and there she was, naked, biting her lip. “Can I join you?” My eyes slowly took in the sight. Her pale skin seemed to glow. Her breasts were more than a handful, I wouldn’t have known through the layers she normally wore around me. She had a tiny waist that melted into wide hips. My dick throbbed excitedly.

I gave her a slight smile. “Only if you want to.” I opened the shower door. “Wait!” She stopped suddenly, eyes wide. I turned back to the knobs in the shower and turned on the hot water. “You would freeze your sexy ass off.”

She smiled at me. I could feel her nervous energy as she made her way into the shower. She scanned over my body, biting her lip again. Driving me insane. Her eyes lingered on my dick, which stood at attention, waiting for action. I needed to remember to take it slow.

“We will take it slow. If you want to stop, just say ‘stop.’” I said pushing her dark hair behind her ear.

“I don’t want to stop.” She said as she looked up at me and I kissed her. Letting her take control. It started slowly; the passion increased with every move of our heads and flick of our tongues. We were both under the hot water now, steam billowing from the top of the clear shower wall. Was the heat from the water or us? I would never know. She pushed me against the bathroom wall. My heart never raced like this for any other woman. She was mine.
