“If the Moon Goddess is willing to grant male mates to males, why would the temple and pack be against it? The Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes.”
“Alpha James was very traditional. But Blake’s definitely not. I think you’ll see a lot of changes to the pack in the coming years. Jack’s one of Blake’s closest friends, and I very much doubt he’d ever banish him.”
She nodded.
“Anyway, next time you go into heat, can you please not involve Blake? I’d rather be the one that’s there for you as yourmate.” I emphasized the word, something deep within me compelling me to make it clear to her. “I know we were on bad footing this time around, but I’m going to be a good mate to you moving forward, so you can come to me for anything.”
She nodded again.
Not wanting to waste more time with this conversation that was just causing me to become irritated, I moved in to kiss her, starting out gentle, nibbling on her bottom lip. She returned the kiss, parting her lips, drawing my tongue into her mouth. Before long, we fell into bed together. I eased her shirt off, kissing down her chest, and unhooked her bra, pulling it off her. I kissed down to her right nipple, sucking on it as a moan escaped her lips. I then kissed across her chest to the other one and did the same thing, savoring the feeling of her erect nipple against my tongue. Before long, I removed my own shirt, and her hands flew to my abs, gliding up my body to my pecs. I loved the feeling as she ran her hands up and down my torso, emitting calm and sparks. The sparks flowed right to my cock, which I could feel throbbing within my pants, begging to be freed.
I kissed down Jasmine’s belly very slowly, as she flexed her core, revealing that she had her own set of abs. My tongue brushed against the ridges. When my lips reached her jeans, I undid them and pulled them off her. I slid mine off too. I lay down next to her and kissed her again. After pulling away, I asked her, “How far do you want to go?”
“I want to learn how to give you a blow job,” she replied, a deep blush spreading across her cheeks. I could feel my cock was rock-hard at this point. I couldn’t help but picture her lips sliding up and down the length of it.
“Okay,” I replied. “If you feel uncomfortable at any point, just let me know. It’s okay.” I removed my boxer briefs, my erection springing free. She moved down, putting her hand on it, provoking me to groan from how good it felt. “Just put your mouth and hand on it, suck very gently, and move your mouth up and down. And make sure you avoid using your teeth.”
As I’d imagined, it felt amazing. The sparks emitted by the bond and the feel of her mouth on me were like nothing I’d ever experienced before. She worked intently, following my instructions. I guided her gently as needed, but found she was a natural. I watched her as she bobbed her head up and down, glancing at me for reassurance, her enchanting amber eyes locking with mine.
The mix of seeing Jasmine’s beautiful naked body with her mouth on my cock and how good it felt with the bonus addition of the sparks, well, I didn’t last long. My lower body was trembling as I was brought to the edge of climax and said, “I’m going to come.” Before I could pull out of her mouth, I came inside it. She looked a bit shocked but swallowed. “Sorry about that. We probably should have discussed that beforehand. You didn’t have to swallow it, but it was really hot watching you do that.” I smirked.
“I didn’t know what else to do with it.” She turned red and looked down, saying very quietly, “Lucy told me before that you like when she swallows.” Then she looked up and said, “Sorry, I don’t know why I just brought that up.”
I looked at her, dumbstruck, the reality of the situation hitting me. I didn’t even know how to respond to that comment. I pulled her down to lie next to me and said, “You don’t have to do what Lucy does. If you don’t want to swallow, I would enjoy the blow job either way.” I put my fingers through her hair and said, “You did a great job for your first time. I was really impressed. Now let me return the favor.”
I got up and slid her panties off, then kissed inside her thighs, using my hands to massage the sides of her ass. I inhaled her delicious scent, which compelled me forward. I began using my tongue to lick her from bottom to top until I found her clit. I sucked it, which caused her to produce a loud moan, encouraging me to continue. I licked her clit, brushing my tongue back and forth, gently at first but adding pressure, enjoying the sound of her moans from above. I glanced up to where she was lying with her eyes closed, lost in the pleasure. I took my pointer and middle finger and pushed them inside her, searching for her G-spot, something that was much easier to do when I could practically sense what she was feeling. Goddess, she was so tight. I continued to lick her while stimulating her inside at the same time. Before long, I could feel her body contracting and her legs shaking, then she gave off one final, long moan, indicating she had come. I kissed the inside of her thighs before I went back to lie down next to her.
I held her naked body against mine, inhaling her beautiful scent. Yes, Jasmine would definitely be easy to fall in love with.
Chapter 40
Luke
ThefollowingFriday,mywhole family came over to the packhouse for dinner. My parents had come home for the weekend after spending the past month in Quebec, my father having taken over my old job. My sister Peyton brought her newborn, whom my mom was desperate to finally meet. Blake and his parents were also in attendance. They’d become an extended part of the family over the years.
I invited Jasmine to introduce her as my mate to everyone. I brought her around to all the guests so she could meet my family.
My mom pulled her in for a huge hug. “Oh my goodness, Jasmine. I am so happy that Lukey found his mate! And what a wonderful mate the Moon Goddess gave him. I couldn’t have picked a better one myself.” She started dabbing a tissue at her eyes, being melodramatic as usual.
All of my nieces and nephews came over to hug Jasmine, welcoming her to the family. Noah, who was ten, asked her, “Have you guys done it yet?”
I lightly whacked him on the top of his head. “That’s not how you speak to a lady, Noah. Now go learn some manners.”
He rubbed his head and gave me a pointed look. “I don’t think you guys did it anyway because you’re not marked.”
“Where did you learn about that?” I asked him.
“My friend Bobby told me. He said that mates mark each other after they do it. His older brother told him that.”
I shook my head at him.
While sleeping with your mate was not guaranteed to end in marking each other, the feeling to do so was usually so overwhelming that it frequently occurred after the first time. Religious people normally waited until they were married to mark each other, to not make their sinful behavior obvious. No one actually believed that anyone waited until after marriage—not even sure how a female going into heat would make that possible—but people liked to keep up the image. That was the reason Blake and Ria had waited—his parents thought it would be disrespectful to the temple if an alpha didn’t wait, being the leader of the pack and representative of the pack’s beliefs.
“Ugh, I am not looking forward to having a teenager in the house!” Peyton sighed, overhearing the conversation. She walked over and asked Jasmine if she wanted to hold her new baby. Jasmine took my new nephew in her arms. I felt a warm feeling in my body as I watched her hold him. After a minute, she handed him back to Peyton and said, “Congratulations, he’s incredible.”
My dad came over and hugged Jasmine saying, “Welcome to the family, Jasmine. We’re so happy that Luke met his mate. Now, get busy producing a beta heir for us, will you? It took us forever to make Luke, so I suggest you get started as soon as possible.” He laughed.
“Dad!” I gave him a warning look. Jasmine blushed.
