I felt so very light in that moment; he’d taken all my worries and stresses away from me. The only thing that mattered was the two of us. Right then, there was nothing else.
Just us and our destiny to become one.
I had fought it at first. I didn’t want to accept his power over me, but as time went on, he claimed first my body, then my mind and ultimately, he’d conquered my heart.
Tentatively, I pressed my lips to his and kissed him. His palm cupped around the back of my head, taking control but only by a little. It was gentle and I breathed into him, reveling in that moment of perfection.
“What do we do now?” I asked, my voice shaking as I leaned back against him, trying to stop the trembling in my legs.
“Were you successful, little mate? Were you able to gather enough information about the scientific activities of the government?” he asked.
I turned back to him, surprised that he would even ask.
“You were punished for planning the break-in on your own and not telling me. You were also punished for disregarding my instructions to stay where I told you to stay. You were not punished for your idea itself, which was a good one. You’ve trained a long time to understand the different intricacies of scientific experimentation. Should the information you gathered prove fruitful, I’d like you to continue what you had planned. The only difference will be that you’re going to do it by my side, rather than on your own. Do you understand me, Dawn?” he explained.
I dropped my eyes and nodded, feeling incredibly small and humbled before him.
“You’re forgiven for all that. No more looking back at past regrets or mistakes. I want you to think about the future now. I want you to think about the sound of our children’s laughter. I also want you to think about the pack and then I want you to think about the two of us, happy and safe. Now think about the fact that you helped make that all possible.
I’m so very proud of you for that. You have a keen mind and I want you to always feel free to use it, but you must remember that I will forever be your alpha and you will always be my first and only love, my omega. My mate. You’re mine, sweet girl. Never forget that,” he continued and even though I was so very sore and sorry for what I had done, his words made me smile.
I opened my mouth hesitantly, before I swallowed back my nerves and answered his question.
“I took pictures of everything that I could,” I said as I reached for my pants and slipped out the phone from my pocket. None of the guards had taken it and I had been relieved to still find it there several days later. I’d kept it turned off in order to preserve the battery. “Complete with the notes Ashe was able to obtain off the servers, I have more than enough information to replicate their work and take it for myself. I have a number of contacts in the pharmaceutical industry that would be more than ready to buy this kind of research and develop it into production. This work would forever change the human world, giving them access to longer life and the capability to overcome many issues of infertility.”
“What would you need?” he asked.
“A lab. If we returned to the place where you first found me, I could finish conducting my research there in secret. They would stop looking for me once I completed what they wanted me to do and then once I finish, we could leave and take the pack somewhere safe,” I suggested quietly, and he nodded.
“Then we will take you there,” he replied.

It took days for my soreness and the marks from the belt on the backs of my thighs to fade, but I liked that. It reminded me of the day I declared my love for my alpha and it also made me think about his bold dominance over my body, mind, and soul. I would run my fingers along each one, using my nails to scrape the welts left behind and reliving the moments where he put me over his knees, whipped me with my own belt, and then took my ass for the very first time.
Every time I thought about it, it made me wet.
Kiba allowed me to wear the guard uniform as we traveled through the woods, but it didn’t hide my arousal from him. He would smell when I was wet, and he’d pull me close and whisper in my ear that he was going to make me come for him until I screamed right before he stripped me naked. Sometimes he would take my pussy, other times my ass or my throat. One thing was always certain though. He would always leave me sore and satisfied.
I loved him for it. It was as though he knew what I needed before I knew it myself.
When we finally arrived back at the black site where the shifters had first found me, the pack stopped a distance away where it would be safe for them to hide for a while. Kiba escorted me closer to the building until I had to go the rest of the way alone.
Just as I was about to walk away, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back to him, capturing me in a kiss that left me breathless and needy. His arms surrounded me, and his hands dipped down to cup my ass, squeezing into each cheek with such possessiveness that it made my pussy clench and liquid heat gather between my thighs.
“Make me proud, little mate,” he whispered, his dark eyes searching mine.
“I will, alpha,” I answered, and his resulting smile made my heart flutter in my chest.
“Good, because when you’re finally through here, I’m going to breed you hard, my pretty little mate,” he warned, and a delightful shiver raced down my spine.
The thought of bearing his children made me tremble with need.
“I haven’t given you the pleasure of my knot yet, omega, but I will soon and when I do, I’m going to make sure I leave you very sore and spent. Think about that when you’re in there carrying out your science. Think about my cock deep in your little pussy giving you exactly what you need and exactly what you deserve,” he promised, and a soft cry escaped my lips.
With just his words, my legs went weak. By the darkening look in his eyes, he knew it too.
“Promise?” I challenged him softly, just to see his eyes narrow because it made my pussy clench even tighter with need.
