Lodging the Alpha’s Omega_M/M Shifter Mpreg Romance Read online

  “Welcome back, I have dinner ready .”

  I sat my bags down and saw the dinner table on the balcony equipped with silver dinnerware, candles, and a bouquet .

  “I already have—hey—wait! Give that back!” I quipped when Drake whisked up my bag of food .

  “You cannot eat this, mate,” he said, tossing the bag into the trash .

  “My food! That’s a local favorite, I wanted to try it!” I fumed .

  “It’s a local favorite made with pine nuts .”

  That hit me like a slap of strong wind. “P-p-pine nuts ?”

  My head began to feel dizzy. My whole family was deathly allergic to those. And I didn’t bring my Epi-pen. My body began to shake from shock and…well, Drake was looking absurdly handsome right now, and I didn’t have any more heat meds .

  “I didn’t read that they…no one said…” I was still at a loss for words .

  “Come, this dinner will be to your liking .”

  Drake’s hand tenderly landed in the middle of my back, filling me with a kind warmth .

  Did he just save me ?

  The warm wind greeted us with a gentle breeze when the double doors were opened that led onto the balcony .

  “Thank you,” I mumbled .

  “You’re welcome, my mate. It’s my responsibility to protect you at all times .”

  My cheeks flushed again. Did he really take this serious? He didn’t remind me of a floosy, so maybe he didn’t look at me as a prime rump roast after all .

  Still. He was an Alpha .

  I sat down on the soft chair that Drake pulled out .

  “I cooked this myself, Steven my mate .”

  “Thank you,” I said, looking at the artistic display of food before me .

  This aroma, I’d totally eat this .

  Drake sat down at the other end of the table and a shiver of loneliness crept up my arm. I rubbed it and brushed it off. Why did he feel so far away from me ?

  Why did I feel this way about him at all ?

  My last so-called Alpha wasn’t like this. He was a piece of shit, and if it weren’t for my family, I’d still be with him .

  “Are you okay, Steven?” Drake asked, leaning in over the table to look at me. “You are having a moment to yourself, you feel saddened .”

  I shot my head up and grabbed my fork. Picking at the food on my plate. It was lamb with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. There was a salad in the middle of our small table, easy to reach too .

  “I was just remembering something. Don’t worry about it.” I forked some lamb into my mouth and a blast of herbs and spices along with the tender sweetness of the meat exploded in my mouth. Damn, he cooked this ?

  “I have to worry. I’m your mate .”

  I finished chewing and swallowed. Now that I had more time to process all of this while I was out, it seemed… “You know, I had an Alpha before .”

  Drake’s mouth twitched. His possessiveness was showing .

  I laughed. “He was an asshole — “

  “That’s because he wasn’t me, your fated mate .”

  I sighed and nodded my head to the side .

  “You’re an odd Alpha .”

  “You’re my Omega .”

  We continued our dinner and made small talk. He talked about his pack, and the resources of his land. He was pitching this whole thing very hard. It made me realize that the Alpha I was with before didn’t go through all of this .

  My sisters and brothers all cooed over finding their fated mates one day. I didn’t believe in fated mates .

  But now that doubt was shaky. Everything about Drake was different .

  I once believed in fated mates too. But messing around with that Alpha-asshat messed that up. Could Drake make me believe again? Or was this another horrendous mistake waiting to happen again ?

  *

  B ed time came, and I took a nice luxurious bath that Drake had waiting for me. It was a Jacuzzi with the works. He even gave me my privacy .

  Once I was done and entered into my part of his huge suite, I was…disappointed to not see him waiting .

  Based on his scent, he was in his part of the room which was blocked off by an ornate wall that had an entry way on the end .

  There was a pull to go find him. My side of the room was lonely .

  “What am I thinking? I’m gonna get myself hurt,” I whispered to myself .

  I curled up in my bed and forced my eyes closed .

  It was dark .

  I shouldn’t have to remember my dreams, but I did .

  They played out like a show in front of me, only difference was that I was involved .

  And I couldn’t escape .

  Memories turned into a vignette that I experienced over and over again .

  “Steven, come here, my little bitch, you forgot to make me dinner,” he barked .

  Ugh, that voice, I hated it. My body drags me into a kitchen I knew all too well .

  “Hurry up!” the voice screamed .

  “Shut the fuck up!” I yell, throwing pans everywhere. I knew what I could cook him, a huge thing of poison, yeah .

  The kitchen begins to morph into darkness, a tangled mess of blurs. A hand grips around my neck and the life began to drain out of me .

  No, he couldn’t do this to me again .

  I broke away and crawled on the ground. “You, how dare you!” I coughed. “Why don’t you protect me? How come you say you’d protect me ?”

  That smile…that crooked smile that screamed hate and pain. No, that wasn’t a fated mate. A figure appeared behind him and grabbed him. The figure began to fade into view .

  Drake?

  “I’ll protect you, my mate. Stand back .”

  The words protect and mate were in the same sentence. I watched as he bashed away Alpha Errik Quint into a powdery mess .

  Dreams, they were so melodramatic .

  My eyes shot open, and my body was wrapped in warmth. That was when I noticed an arm roped around me. Then legs… What the hell ?

  I waved my sleep to the side and woke up some more to find Drake wrapped around me .

  That dream …

  He was in it. And for once I didn’t feel the need to take out my claws .

  He saved me in my dreams, and in real life he was wrapped around me, making me feel safe .

  Drake grunted and pulled me closer .

  “Drake, wake up!” I tapped his arm that was wrapped around my waist .

  His scent swirled all around me, making me dizzy .

  “Steven…” Drake still kept his grip on me, sitting up in his—wait—his bed ?

  “I’m in your bed,” I said, touching the sheets around me. It was much softer and warmer here. I didn’t want to leave .

  “Steven, I’m sorry .”

  “Sorry for what?” I said, trying to remember what he was apologizing for .

  “You said not to touch you. But it was an emergency .”

  I was leaning against his chest now, cradled in his lap. Those marks from those dragons… Damn them .

  “What emergency?” My head was still spinning from being so close—no—from being enveloped in his body and scent. I inhaled it and relaxed into him .

  I guess I could relax for a moment .

  Cat senses were always on point, and right now they said that I was safe with him…for now .

  “You were crying and thrashing around. It must’ve been a bad nightmare. But you even brought out your claws for a second .”

  Drake nuzzled into my neck, far too close to my scent glands for comfort. But holy shit did I love the feeling of him doing that. I could even feel the tickle from his stubble and his warm breath lulled me into a deep comfort .

  “You shouldn’t do that,” I said, my voice shaky .

  “Why not? Your scent is magnificent .”

  He kissed my neck, and a shock went straight to my crotch .

  “How long have you been holding me like this? And sorry if I cut you by accident,” I
said, melting in his hands .

  “You didn’t, dear mate, but I’ve been holding you for about,” he looked over to his glowing clock, “two-and-a-half hours .”

  “Wow…”

  He squeezed me against his body again and his scent pulled a full frontal assault on my nose. God he smelled good, I wasn’t gonna get that scent of pine and sandalwood out of my nose .

  “Thank you,” I whispered .

  Never before had I smelled an Alpha so strong and surreal. It vibrated my nerves and reached down into my core where no one has reached before .

  Was he truly my mate ?

  All the signs said yes. And my head said no .

  But when I thought about it. The last Alpha I was with was abusive, uttered no words of protection nor showed a slight bit of it .

  Drake was all the opposite. People who were abusive showed it. People who weren’t, showed that they weren’t. My inner cat purred to the touch of our skin .

  My breathing began to speed up while Drake slowly rocked me .

  “Okay…” I began .

  “Okay what?” Drake asked, stroking my hair. Oh he got me bad. I already had a heat due …

  I broke away from him and slipped off the bed. Over by the window, I placed my hand on the cool glass and looked over the moonlit garden. The scent of apples and many other fruits and vegetables slipped through the window .

  “Maybe this could work …”

  Drake jumped to his feet. “You mean… you’ll take me as your mate ?”

  I turned around and was frozen in my spot when I saw his semi-naked body cloaked in blue moonlight. Even those long three cuts on his chest were so damn sexy. Licking my lips, I looked down to the floor and traced a line with my toe .

  “I’m not calling anything official yet. But if things keep going this way…then I’d be an idiot not to .”

  Drake was about to protest, but stopped, his chest heaving down. “Who hurt you ?”

  I flickered my gaze back to him. “It’s a long story .”

  “A name is no more than three words,” Drake growled .

  “It’s history. Nothing really — ”

  “Tell me his name!” Drake demanded. “He hurt you! And I’m going to return the favor .”

  Drake marched up to me and I backed up into the wall behind me that went up between his two massive windows .

  My inner cat purred and begged to be touched. Slick began to run down my thighs .

  He cupped my chin and tilted it up. “Speak, beloved .”

  My mouth trembled. “You’d do that for me? Go and fight him ?”

  “I’d destroy him. And yes, I would. Anything to try to heal you and let you know that you’re nothing but safe with me .”

  My inner cat pawed at me. He was telling the truth .

  A drop of my slick hit the carpet, and I shuddered. Drake let out a loud sniff and looked down between my legs. “God, my heat, it’s early !”

  He hoisted me up by my waist and pushed me against his wall. “No, it’s on-time. Beloved, this is fate. Accept it and let me mate you .”

  Fuck, I was beginning to forget how to breathe normally .

  “Do it, I want you, Drake .”

  We crashed into a powerful kiss with our tongues slipping over each other. Teeth clicked against each other, and our hands wouldn’t stay put. I moaned into his mouth and he returned with a grunt and a thrust against my cock .

  He licked my Omega glands and a terrible shiver shot down my spine and wouldn’t go away .

  I gave him a gentle push and my feet landed on the ground .

  “Steven…”

  “Go sit on the bed, Drake. If we’re doing this, I get to add a little flavor to it. Okay?” I purred. I was taking a chance .

  A huge risk .

  Drake obliged and trudged over to the bed. Sitting down, I could see the bulge of his cock beneath his boxers. Wow, that was an impressive sight .

  My inner cat purred at the sight of his size. The last Alpha I was with, Errik, wasn’t quite so big. Maybe that explained his temper and attitude. Alphas with small dicks were a bad sign. Didn’t mesh with their overall psyche .

  I was still wearing a shirt with my tight boxer briefs on, so I cat walked over to the bed slowly, allowing the moonlight behind me to give a dramatic effect .

  Drake’s mouth fell open as I began to shed out of my clothes, the little that I had on. The shirt was the first to go, then the briefs. I climbed onto the bed and up between Drake’s legs. He had powerful thick thighs. Since he was a wolf shifter, he naturally would have good legs, all the running they did .

  “Beautiful,” Drake said, stroking my back. How the hell did he go right to my sweet spots? He really did sense a lot of things about me that were correct .

  But even he didn’t know how correct he was .

  It was like we were connected somehow. His scent was drawing me in, closer over the edge .

  “And you’re…hmm. How should I put it ?”

  Drake took me by the waist again and threw me onto the bed. Ugh, his mattress was perfect. Purrfect .

  He crawled over me like the wolf he was and sniffed at my Omega scent glands. With one rough swipe, his tongue danced across the crook of my neck, sending butterflies down to my core. The slick began to pour out more, weeping, begging for him to claim me .

  Drake’s hands smoothed over my arms as his kisses trailed over my collar bone and down to my nipples. I jerked my head back and forth, trying not to scream or moan too loudly .

  My dick began to get hard, though it was no match for what was hovering angrily over me. Drake’s cock was massive, the brutal outline of it beneath his boxers made me whimper .

  “Soon, mate. Soon,” he hushed .

  Going all the way down, Drake lifted my thighs and spread my legs out so he could have easy access to my slick .

  “Wow, I’m pouring everywhere, sorry,” I said, covering my mouth with my hands .

  “Do not apologize for such a gorgeous sight. I will savor this moment slowly,” he hummed .

  He sure as fuck did. Drake dragged his tongue over my slit and down my cock where he went to that sweet spot in the middle of my ass and balls. Poking at it with his tongue, he squeezed my balls and flicked his tongue over my fluttering hole .

  There was so much peace. No worry or concern about harm coming from him or anybody else. Everything I experienced with Drake so far was different, accommodating, comfortable .

  Drake took his time with me .

  I chuckled .

  “What’s funny?” he asked, grinning .

  “You’re so patient. I thought Alphas were the type to take their sex rough and fast .”

  He did the motorboat on my thigh, making me bust out laughing. “Stop! That tickles, you big wolf !”

  He did it to the other thigh too .

  “Oh my god, get to the fucking before I explode. I can’t believe I have to tell an Alpha this!” I laughed .

  Running his finger behind my knees and down the backs of my calves, I fell back into a more peaceful state. I buried my head back into the softness of his mattress and licked my lips .

  “Show me your cock, Alpha,” I demanded. I could see the wet spot forming from the pre-cum on his shaft .

  Drake smiled and yanked his boxers down so his cock could jump free .

  It bobbed over me as drops of pre-cum fell onto my belly .

  He grasped his cock and mine together and began to pump them. The friction of his veiny cock against mine had me racing toward a climax .

  “You’re so hard,” I whined .

  Never in my life had I been with someone that made me want to feel so dominated in the bedroom .

  Ropes of heavy cum covered my chest from him. Mine were nothing like his. “Let me taste it,” I purred .

  “Whatever you want, my dear mate .”

  We switched positions and Drake was now laying down while I was between his legs with his heavy as hell cock in my hands. “God, walking around
with this between your legs has to be one hell of a challenge. How many Omegas did you claim with this ?”

  “That is not important now, mate. What matters is that the only person from here on out that will even be able to look at this is you .”

  That was an artful way to dodge my questions .

  “It doesn’t bother you that I’m not a virgin ?”

  I saw a flash of his neck muscles tense for a second. “Yes, it does. I still want to smash him to pieces, but let’s not talk about that now .”

  I rubbed my face on his cock much like a cat would rub someone’s ankle. I purred hard enough that it vibrated his veiny tower and made him groan. His hips began to thrust upwards .

  My tongue slipped over his slit and traced a crazy path all over his cock. The slick wasn’t showing signs of slowing down either .

  “Steven!” Drake grunted .

  I sucked it hard and pumped his cock at a crazy rhythm. Soon my face was covered in tracks of cum. I licked the leftovers oozing from his slit and accidentally let out a meow .

  “Oops,” I said, covering my mouth .

  “Don’t, that was adorable .”

  “Says you .”

  I leaned back on my hands and played with his cock using my feet. “Are you gonna fuck me now ?”

  “Impatient cat, aren’t you ?”

  “Wanna hear me hiss?” I teased .

  Drake sat up and drew me forward. We collided in another kiss, savoring each other’s tongues, and when we were done, he placed me underneath him .

  His cock grazed my balls, and I whimpered out his name, irritated that he wasn’t being Alpha enough .

  He leaned in, his scent clouding me. His face was close to my Omega glands, and I knew what this meant .

  It was time. And I was going to be that fool that let him mark me .

  “Say yes,” Drake said .

  “Giving me a chance to back out?” Tears burned the rims of my eyelids .

  “I’m giving you a chance to be you. Do what your instincts tell you .”

  I swallowed the lump in my throat down. Both my instincts and heart were into this. The doubts were the only stubborn things left .

  I nodded my head. No more lying to myself. I wanted this, the whole package. Kids, a family, an Alpha that truly cared. Drake was all that and more. He made me realize the things I wanted were not impossible after all .

  “Yes, make me yours .”
