He’s My Alpha by Cassandra M (Jake & Clair)
Chapter 57
Clair
We stayed in the same position for what seemed like an eternity, wrapped in each other’s arms, just marveling at the moment we shared together. I wished everything wasn’t complicated.
I should still be mad at him, but instead, I just let him take me again. Now I don’t know if the problem was him or me all along.
I let him drug me with his warmth, and now, I can’t seem to withdraw from it.
I wiggled out of his hold, snapping Jake from his own reverie.
He immediately let me down on my feet, and I stumbled to fix my dress. Now I don’t have any underwear! Why did he need to tear it off?
“Why in a hurry?” He snickered while tucking a strand of loose hair behind my ear and rubbing his thumb over my cheek.
I dropped my gaze down to the floor. I was afraid to meet his eyes as I straightened my skirt, my cheeks heating up from his touch.
Damn sparks.
“I need to get back there. They might be looking for me.” I told him in a calm tone.
“I don’t think that would be an issue. Let them enjoy themselves there. I want to clean you up fi…” “No. I want to go back.” I cut him off, my voice slightly raised, as I pushed him slightly, just enough for me to have space to turn and go to the door.
But before I could walk away, he grabbed my wrist and spun me around.
“Run with me.” His face leaned down at me, our noses touching. His peppermint breath brushed softly against my face.
“What?” I swallowed hard. I knew having him so near me always ended badly for me.
“Echo wants to run with Rain. It’s been so long since we ran together.” He tilted his head to my side, brushing my cheeks with his lips.
I felt my body responding, ready to give him what he wanted.
But I stood my ground this time. I stepped backward and looked him in the eyes. “I’m tired. Some other time, maybe.”
He probably wasn’t expecting me to say no. He just stood there without moving an inch.
So I took the chance and walked away, leaving the door open as I left.
With hurried footsteps, I slipped inside the bathroom on the ground floor to wash my hands and my mouth. As much as I wanted his taste and his scent to linger on me longer, I couldn’t face my father and my brother with his scent all over me.
Jake
Did she just leave after what happened between us?
I stood frozen in my spot, dumbfounded with disheveled hair and shirt, and still n*ake*d below.
My mate just walked out on me after what we shared as if it didn’t mean anything to her.
Echo howled in agony in my head. Our mate rejected him personally, and he could not bear the pain.
I clutched my hand in a fist and slammed my knuckles against the wall in front of me before making my way to pick up my pants.
I contemplated if I needed to wash off her scent, but went against it. Soon everyone in the pack would know about us, no f*uc*king use to hide her scent on me. And I want every guy to stay clear of her.
I went outside and saw the party was still in full swing, although most of the people left were the younger ones.
As soon as I reached the center of the ground, I saw her in the corner with Aaron. They looked like they were having a heated argument. Aaron was fuming while my girl was keeping her calm, with her arms crossed in her chest, rolling her eyes at her brother.
I was convinced they were arguing about me. I decided to butt in and was on my way to them when my Beta grabbed my arm and pulled me in a different direction.
“Damn it! You reeked of her. No wonder Aaron was fuming mad! Don’t try to go there, if that’s what you’re planning.” He scolded me and I just scowled back at him.
“Why not? I’m going to give Aaron a piece of his own shit. He needs to grow up and f*uc*king let Clair decide for herself. She’s not a kid!” I snapped at him, annoyed at Aaron’s interference all the time.
“Don’t. Clair handled it already. I heard Clair told him it would be the last time, and she would stay away from you. “There’s no point in starting a fire again after she told him it’s the end of you and her fooling around.” He shifted as he delivered this blow.
I wasn’t expecting this.
My hands moved to my head, tugging my hair in frustration before a growl vibrated from my chest.
All eyes were on me now, except hers. She refused to turn around, while Aaron’s eyes were sending daggers my way.
She’s done with me. She’s f*uc*king done with me!
My feet moved on their own and I made my way past everyone in the pack house. I kicked the big vase standing in the hallway, shattering it to pieces when it hit the concrete wall.
Clair
I left Aaron and headed home immediately. I saw Jake walking away, and he seemed pissed off. It must be me.
I just rejected him and Echo. I rejected my own wolf too. Rain whimpered in my head, calling for our mate. She wanted so badly to run with him and was hating on me for saying no.
Not now, Rain. Some other time. Maybe.
I would never say no to Echo. But I had to. If I wanted to keep a little of my pride and not let Jake run over me, I needed to learn to say no to his advances.
I love him. I knew that now, but he needed to realize I was not his plaything.
And I have no idea how to make him realize that soon before I lose myself completely.
Dad was already home by now, as some of the elderly had just left the younger ones to continue with the party. But I don’t have any strength to stay longer. Besides, I don’t have underwear and one wrong move could mean exposing my a*s*s or worst, my front.
I just wanted to lie down and rest.
My argument with Aaron only added to the tiredness I was feeling already. That and my tired body.
I laid under my blanket and closed my eyes, trying to black off any memory of tonight, but my
traitorous mind, together with my traitor wolf, kept flashing highlights of my intimate moments with the Alpha.
After what happened with me and Jake tonight, I was lucky that I was still able to stand straight and walk normally. He was an animal in the bedroom, not that it was surprising. He’s a werewolf, not to mention an Alpha.
And I wasn’t complaining.
I loved the way he did me. Nice and slow. Hard and fast.
The way his hand touched me or the way his lips tasted every inch of me, they brought me to a place of stars and sunshine, but when he rocked my soul with his hard f*uc*king ways when the wolf in him takes over – it’s an automatic explosion. A universal explosion.
I took a deep sigh. Damn this!
I should be sleeping, but instead, my hand traveled inside my underwear, trailing my finger into my mound, into my wetness. Having two o*rgas*ms tonight seemed like not enough.
I needed one more.
I moved my finger and rubbed my throbbing c**t, thinking of my Alpha and the wild ways he took me.
