Hawk's POV
Leaving Amber on the bed, was rough. I wanted to stay but knew I needed to chat with Mato. I wanted to mark her, hell I wanted to do more then that. The question was what was it. I had ran across people naked and doing things. Question was, could I do those things with Amber? Would she be to scared. I didn't want to scare her.
I stood at Mato's open door. He was scowling at some files on his desk. When I knocked on the door jam.
"Come in," Mato grunted running his hands through his hair.
"Got some things I need to ask in private." I asked as I walked in.
"Sure close the door." Mato leaned back studying me.
I closed the door, found the chair in front of his desk and sat down. I hunched forward, lowering my eyes to the floor. "Other then kissing what do you do with a woman?" I pinched the bridge of my nose as I looked down at the floor. This was the dumbest I ever felt.
"Seemed like you knew, when I got there." Mato leaned back in his chair. "Have you ever been with a woman?" Mato asked after a thoughtful silence.
"Never." I sighed, leaning back I titled my head to look at the office ceiling.
"Well that explains the unleashed rage." Mato stated. "You have seen people do things?" he raised eyebrow at me.
"Yeah," I sighed. "Just not how they got there." I shrugged. Damn this felt awkward.
"Based on what I seen, you guys were not far from that." Mato leaned forward. A grin forming on his face.
"I wanted to devour her." I grunted. Thinking about her hands, legs and her mouth. I inwardly groaned.
"Yep, sounds about right." Mato's grin grew. "Around that time is when clothes start flying." He stood, "If she matches what you are doing then she is willing." He walked around the side of his desk. "Just remember if she says no, you need to shut it down." Mato's words getting stern.
"That is why I keep holding back." I grunted. "I am unsure, she wants that."
"I have a feeling, with you she would be ok." Mato sat on the edge of the desk looking at me.
I sat up, "I just don't want to scare her." I looked up at him. "I want to mark her, I want to taste her I don't like not having her with me." I groaned. I did not like this needy feeling.
"Don't look at it as a hindrance." Mato stated standing. "A mate is your other half. Regardless of her past, she feels the bond and trusts you. The Goddess will make sure everything happens the way it should. Have faith." He turned to go back to his chair. "I am going to see if I can find the lab, and who owns it." He sat in the chair and looked back at the papers before him.
I stood, "Thank you." I turned to go.
"Glad to help." He mentioned distracted at the papers before him.
I walked, to the kitchen. Found the sandwiches and a few bottles of juice and water. Going upstairs, I opened the door. Amber sat against the headboard with one of the history books in her hands.
"Grabbed some sandwiches." I randomly said. I set the waters on the mini table near the chair. Putting the sandwiches there I felt her slip into my arms and wrap her arms around my waist again. "What's this?" I looked down to ask.
"I felt lost," she mumbled into my chest.
I wrapped my arms around her. "Your never lost if I am here." I whispered above her. I held her a bit longer. "Ma Cháñte, let's eat." I pulled her with me to the chair where I sat. Pulling her into my lap. I pulled the band on my hair, and grabbed a sandwich for her.
Amber snuggled against my shoulder, as she nibbled her sandwich. "Did they say how they created me?" Amber's voice a meer whisper against my chest.
"No," I kissed her temple. "The Goddess made sure you were made for me."
"Mmmm," She sighed, as she leaned against my chest.
We finished our sandwiches, she turned in my lap so that her legs dangled off each side of me. She wrapped her arms around my chest. Her head listening to my heart.
Amber sat up after a while. I gazed into her green eyes, she licked her lips as she looked at mine. Her eyes darted back up to my eyes. "I want you to kiss me." Her words barely above a whisper.
"Your wish is my command," I didn't need any more encouragement. Cupping the sides of her face I let my lips claim her. She matched every ounce of passion I had. We broke breathless, foreheads touching. Our heavy breathing mixing like our growing passion.
"Why do I feel this way," she whimpered. Her hands holding on around my neck. She wiggled a little on my lap.
I scooted her hips closer to me. Pinning them still. "Wiggle like that and I will peel these clothes off and do what I want to do." I rumbled. My hands applying a little more pressure to her hips to make my point.
She let out a cute little squeak, "I want closer to you," She snuggled into the curve of my neck.
"I want you closer too," I rocked my pelvis up just a bit, letting her feel the hardness in my groin. "But that would require no clothes and that is something I have no experience with," I nibbled her shoulder as my t-shirt had slid over exposing her smooth skin. "I don't want to scare you," I groaned.
"You never?" She raised her head off my shoulder her eyes wide with surprise.
"No, I spent most of my existence, just doing my job." I sighed leaning my forehead against hers.
"I always thought men..." her voice trailed off as she got lost in thought. You could see confusion, sadness, a hint of worry and then sudden burst of confidence appear on her face. "Do you trust me?" Her green eyes looked back at mine expectantly.
"I do," I gave her a feather light kiss to her nose. She giggled, wiggling her nose like it tickled.
"Then kiss me again, my beast." Her words fierce as she used my neck to pull me to her lips. A low growl escaped my chest in approval, pulling her body flush with mine. My need pouring out into my kiss and the desperate grip I had on her body.
