Kyra’s POV
The weight of Nathan’s final words still clung to . Letting go. That was all I had ever wanted from him – to finally release from the tangled web of guilt and misplaced affection. But seeing the pain in his eyes tonight hurt more than I cared to admit.
He’s not our mate anymore, Sylvia reminded sharply, her ntal voice edged with impatience. Our true mate is waiting for us in the car.
I clenched my fists, anger simring beneath my skin. Why had it taken Nathan so long to realize his feelings? Why had he broken our bond only to co crawling back when it was too late? The thought of him chasing while he was still tied to Sophia made my wolf snarl in disgust. He’s still a coward. He never learns. And now, he finally let go. But what if I give Kieran a chance and he hurts ? Will Nathan co chasing again? What if he’s already married to Sophia when that day cos?
Even if Kieran hurts us, Sylvia growled, we will never return to a male who couldn’t choose us.
"Are you okay?" Kieran’s deep voice pulled from my thoughts as he parked outside my apartnt. His blue eyes glowed softly in the dim light, searching my face with an Alpha’s protective intensity.
I had been silent the whole ride and he misunderstood my silence.
"I’m fine," I murmured, though my fingers trembled slightly on the seatbelt.
Kieran’s jaw tightened. "I didn’t know they’d be there either. I’m sorry for failing you on our first date."
His words struck . In my turmoil over Nathan, I’d forgotten how this night must have felt for Kieran – a proud Alpha unable to fully claim his chosen female in front of her forr mate.
"Kieran..." I reached out, my fingers trailing over the corded muscles of his forearm. His skin burned beneath my touch.
"The dinner was perfect. You took to my favorite restaurant, ordered the best dishes... You made happier tonight than Nathan ever did in all our years together."
The change in him was instant. His shoulders relaxed, and that light I loved so much returned. "Since our first date was a success," he purred, leaning closer until his cedar and musk scent enveloped , "will you go on another date with ?"
I was taken aback. There was hope lingering in his eyes and my heart skipped a beat because of it. He looked so happy and hopeful that I felt he would take my breath away if I didn’t put so distance between us.
My breath hitched as Sylvia howled in approval. "Say yes! Our mate wants to court us properly!"
Instead of answering, I unbuckled my seatbelt and slipped from the car, my wolf-heightened hearing catching his quiet chuckle as he followed.
"Co on, little wolf," Kieran teased, his long strides easily matching mine through the apartnt lobby. "Tell about our second date. When will it be?"
I couldn’t suppress my smile as I unlocked my door. Turning, I found him closer than expected, his massive fra blocking out the hallway light.
"Why don’t you surprise on our second date?"
His lips parted and his eyes widened. I was surprised; I didn’t know he was capable of showing such cute expressions. I was used to seeing him so serious. It stunned to realize his blue eyes could also reveal excitent and shock.
"Oh, I will," he promised, his voice dropping to that rough Alpha timbre that always made my knees weak. "Next ti, I’m taking you sowhere no other male can interrupt us."
I bit my bottom lip and nodded. He was so happy that he punched the air before looking at again, brushing his ssy hair back. I was stunned. Why does he look so sexy doing that?
Kieran’s blue eyes widened, his usually composed Alpha deanor crumbling into sothing beautifully vulnerable.
"Kyra..." He held my hands, staring intently into my eyes. "I want to give you the best dates. I want to make you happy every ti you’re with . I’m willing to do everything. But this is my first ti courting a woman, so I’m not going to be a perfect suitor. I won’t be perfect but I’ll try to learn. For you."
His words reached my heart. His sincere eyes were so intense I felt as if I could drown in them. Who would have thought the coldest, most ruthless man I know could be this soft and caring?
He lifted his right arm, and his palm gently caressed my cheek. I slowly closed my eyes when he leaned down and planted a soft kiss on my forehead. His gentle gestures were sweet. He’s caring and loving. I wouldn’t regret it if I gave him a chance, right?
He smiled at after he pulled away. "Good night, Kyra."
He was about to leave, but I grabbed the wrist of his long-sleeved polo. I swallowed hard when he faced again.
Without saying anything, I stood on tiptoes and pressed a soft, swift kiss to his cheek. He was stunned, staring at for God knows how long as I held tighter onto his shirt.
"I-it’s a yes, Kieran," I whispered nervously.
His brow furrowed in confusion. "Yes what?"
I couldn’t look at him. "I—I an, we’re together now."
"Huh?"
I sucked in a breath, my cheeks burning. God! Why do I feel this way? I’m not a teenager. I felt so shy even though we’d already slept together. And this was the first ti I said yes to being soone’s girlfriend.
He moved closer, so close I felt his hard chest press against my clothed bosom.
"What is it, babe?" he whispered, lifting my chin with his finger.
When our eyes t, I felt scorched by the desire in his gaze.
"Tell again," he whispered, brushing his nose against my cheek. "Let hear it again, babe."
I squeezed my eyes closed and helplessly clung to his neck. "I’m your... mate now, Kieran."
I heard him chuckle happily and before I knew it, his lips claid mine in a hot, deep kiss.
"There’s no turning back, babe. You’re mine now," he said between burning kisses.
He nibbled my lips and sucked my tongue. He drove wild in ways only he could, igniting flas of desire inside . I wanted him. I wanted to feel him again, touching , kissing my body, moving inside .
Just as I was about to pull him closer, he broke the kiss and pressed our foreheads together.
"I gotta go," he said.
I slowly opened my eyes and swallowed hard, eting his intense gaze.
"Stay..." I said, lips trembling.
He shook his head. "No, babe. I don’t want to scare you—"
"I want you, Kieran. I want you so, so bad I’m going crazy."
He swallowed hard, his eyes burning with lust. "I don’t want you to think that I only want your body—"
For the second ti, I cut him off. I wound my arms around his neck and kissed him, full on the lips. Instantly, he responded. He lifted from the floor and carried inside my apartnt. He kicked the door closed, still kissing with urgent, scorching intensity. His lips were hot and demanding against mine.
"Hmmm..." I moaned as his left palm gently cupped my left breast.
He set down, and I realized we were in the bathroom. He held my gaze, his eyes black with need, jaw clenched tight as he started undressing .
I felt so hot watching him remove my clothes. When he leaned in and began kissing my neck, I hugged him close, biting my bottom lip as he nipped the side of my throat.
"Ohh! Kieran!" A needy moan escaped when he cupped my aching sex and turned around.
My cheeks flad as I saw myself reflected in the mirror. He stood behind , watching in the glass, his eyes dark with desire, his jaw set as his hand moved between my legs.
I didn’t know when he stripped off all my clothes, but while he teased my most sensitive spot, he was shedding his own.
"Say you won’t regret this, babe," he whispered, biting my earlobe.
I shook my head hard, tossing my head back as his finger thrust inside . He was so skilled it didn’t take long until I shattered on his hand.
"Ah!" I cried out with pleasure as the tip of his length pressed against my entrance from behind. My wolf howled in ecstasy.
"More!" Coral demanded. "We need our mate’s knot!"
He wrapped his arms around my waist, lifting my chin so I saw his gaze through the mirror. Knowing how needy I looked made even more aroused.
"G-gently, Kieran," I whispered as I felt him slowly push inside .
"I know, babe," he whispered through gritted teeth. "I know..."
My eyes rolled back and I scread as he filled in one smooth, deep thrust. It was slow and gentle, but so deep I felt tears slip down my cheeks from sheer pleasure.
God! It’s killing . I needed him desperately.
He completely dominated , and I felt like I could never escape this carnal desire he awoke in . With him, I could show this side of myself. With him, I could express what I felt. I could scream at the top of my lungs, shout how much I wanted this. I could be wild, lewd, and free. Sothing I only ever felt with him.
