Me: My parents...
Luke: We’re mates right? I think it’s time we tell them. They can’t be against your mate taking you out to dinner. I want to do the right thing now. I hope you’ll give me a chance.
I was baffled. I wondered what had caused his change of heart. Either way, I could feel my heart beating in my chest, a warm feeling in my body. Luke had come around. I was no longer mateless.
Not long after Luke’s texts, I received one from Blake as well.
Blake Sexy AF: Have the day off tomorrow. Hiking?
Blake Sexy AF: If your life’s still a disaster, seeing my sexy body climbing a mountain will cheer you right up :)
Blake Sexy AF: And don’t forget, you have lunch duty from now on :)
I stared at my phone. Two guys asking me out in one night. And not just any guys—the beta and the alpha. Never did I ever think something like this would ever happen to me.
Chapter 36
Jasmine
Sincemyparentswerehome on Sunday, Blake and I met at the library again. This time we took his car. I packed turkey sandwiches and cut-up vegetables to go with a ranch dip. I told my parents I had a lot of schoolwork and would spend the day at the library.
After driving to our secret spot and parking, Blake reached for his cell phone to remove it from the mount when a string of texts came in.
“Just a second, Jasmine. These look important,” he said as he began reading through them.
Suddenly, I started to feel very warm. I pulled off the sweatshirt I had worn in preparation for the cool weather that day. I looked over at Blake, my eyes scanning his whole body, and felt a strong desire to touch him. I put my hand on his thigh and began rubbing it, distracting him from his phone.
He looked over at me and dropped his phone. “Fuck!”
“What?” I asked, inching my hand toward his crotch. I watched as a bulge formed.
He abruptly grabbed my hand and moved it back into my lap, then reaching to the floor of the car where his phone had fallen. He came back up with his phone and looked at me.
“Fuckin’ A, you’re in heat!” He closed his eyes, gripping the steering wheel, breathing heavily. After rolling down the windows he continued, “I have to drive back. There’s been a security breach at our border. And holy fuck, I can barely concentrate right now.” He shifted his car into drive and banged a U-turn to head back to where we’d come from.
After driving for some time, I leaned over, shoving my hand inside the bottom of his shirt, and rubbed my hands on his well-sculpted abs. I could feel him flex against my hands as I touched him, my panties becoming soaked with arousal, my breathing now heavy.
“Dear Goddess, Jasmine, please don’t do that. It’s taking everything in me not to pull over and throw you in my back seat so I can fuck you in every position that’s physically possible in a car. You touching me is not helping at all.”
“I want that so badly right now,” I moaned, imagining Blake’s chiseled body naked with me in the back of the car, the swelling between my legs practically becoming unbearable. I moved my hand down to his crotch to feel his bulge.
“Please, Jasmine, I’m begging you. I am going to do something I regret if you don’t stop touching me.” His jaw was clenched, and his knuckles were white from gripping the steering wheel so tightly. I shook my head and took my hands off him, realizing what I was doing.
In a moment of clarity, I had a thought. “I’m supposed to go to temple service tonight.”
Blake replied, “You are not going to temple service tonight.”
“But what will I tell my parents?”
“We’ll think of something.”
It wasn’t long before I was possessed with desire again, wanting to feel every last inch of him, my whole body shivering with yearning. He stopped at a stop sign, and I boldly unbuckled my seatbelt and jumped across his lap, grabbing his face and bringing his lips to mine, my fingers against the rough stubble, his tongue instantly finding mine. We kissed fervently as he grabbed my breast with one of his hands, provoking me to moan against his mouth. My body backed against his steering wheel, resulting in a loud honk, which woke us from what we were doing, and I was able to gain enough awareness to move back into my seat.
Blake immediately hit the gas. I sat on my hands, finding it difficult to overcome the overwhelming longing I felt for Blake at that moment. After some more time driving, Blake said, “We’re getting closer now and I can mindlink the pack again.” After about a minute, he said, “It’s not safe for you to be alone outside right now. I’m having Jack meet us at the border and he’ll drive you to the packhouse in my car.”
“Jack? Lucy’s brother, Jack?”
“Yes, my friend Jack who’s Lucy’s brother.”
