The Alpha's Human Mate

His Heart, Her Dream

Gemma watched the door close as Maddie went to grab her bag from Kyle after the doorbell rang. She assumed it must be Kyle since it wasn’t long ago that mammie said she could stay over here. Sighing in contentment, she looked at her sparkling diamond ring, her mind going over that night and how she felt. She can’t believe she said yes; but wasn’t this the perfect way to move on. Many other people might think she’s a bit young to get engaged, but she’s been brought up with a pack of wolves who mate when they’re sixteen. They usually have their first child by seventeen/eighteen so really, she’s actually slow. She turns seventeen in June and Connor already said he would wait untill she was twenty one before getting married which made her think about her dession on s*x.

She hadn’t lied about not having s*x with Connor, just that it was a close call and if Cindy hadn’t interupted her; then it would have happened. She didn’t know how to bring up the conversation with Maddie, to say that she knew the tip had nearly gone in but not fully and that a part of her was glad it almost happened so she could move on. Like really move on. Wasn’t that why she said yes in the first place? Gemma sighed and closed her eyes for a second, remembering the moment when she and Conner had been fooling around after drinking and her accepting his proposal. They had started throwing off their clothes, each other performing s****l acts on each other before Connor was on top of her, kissing his way up her body.                                                                                                                                                                                              She had gotten tingles and her mind had started to become fuzzy before she realised his bare c**k was sliding between her p***y, her wetness coating him. Before she could rethink it, she had pulled him down for a kiss, her brain fighting with her heart. Connor returned her kiss before he pulled back a little and used his hand to guide the tip of his p***s and place it at her opening. Gemma had closed her eyes for a moment, her mind playing tricks on her as she envisioned Max being the one there, that he had been the one to ask her to marry him. She had moved against the c**k, to encourage him to enter her when suddenly her mobile had rang; the tune set for Cindy.                                                                                                                                                                                                  Fearing it was something bad, she had scrambled to get up as she realised it wasn’t Max, but Connor who had come close to taking her virginity. She was both upset it was Conner and relieved it wasn’t Max, her heart tugging between the two. Why wasn’t this simple?

Sighing again, Gemma got up and walked to the en-suite bathroom. Finishing her business, she started washing her hands when she heard the bedroom door open. Assuming it was Maddie, she walked out, rubbing in the hand lotion, the coconut smell pleasing to her.

“Where’d you get this lotion from?, it’s smells so-” Gemma cut off, frozen in place; her hearting pounding, her eyes wide as she realises it wasn’t Maddie who had entered the bedroom

“Hi Gemstone” Max whispered softly

Gemma couldn’t breath. Frozen in place where she was, her head started to feel dizzy. Her eyes took in the new Max, the mature Max. When he left two years ago he was still good looking but in a teenage still-to-grow-up way; Now? Now this was a man. Well of course he is she thought to herself He was almost 18. Then, while he was built, he was slim or rather athletic. Now? My god she thought, his muscles had muscles!

“My god Gemstone. Look at you!” Max said as he walked towards her

Gemma took a step which Max matched, step for step, until her back hit the wall and she had nowhere else to go. As Max got closer her eyes took him in. He was at least 6’2/6’3, his bulging muscles a testament to his love of the gym which he had just started getting into before he left. His hair was still styled as before but more prominent as his hair had also gotten thicker. While he had a narrow waist, it wasn’t too slim and my god those thighs! Two tree trunks! Her eyes wandered down further until they widened at the big outline of his c**k. She unconsciously licked her lips and darted her eyes away when Max groaned and leaned into her neck, taking a deep breath of her scent.

“God how I missed your scent. Every night! Every day all I thought of was you. The only way I got through the day was counting down the hours till I saw you again” Max whispered

Gemma couldn’t breath. Her ears started ringing as her eyes lost focus. MAX! HERE! How? When? Did Maddie know? Pppfft, of course she must have known; but why didn’t she tell her? She couldn’t believe she was looking at him, that he was here. That he was holding her in his big arms, while saying this to her.                                                                                                                                                                                              She closed her eyes as she was hugged closer to him, her arms going round his neck of their own accord; her nose picking up on his delicious scent of chocolate and salewood. And not just any type of chocolate but the type you get from Thorntons chocolate shop, the smell and taste of the melted milk chocolate that you could buy fresh in a cup. Gemma loved going in once a week just to get a small shot of the chocolate, licking her lips as the melted gooey goodness hit her taste buds. Her heart hammered against her chest as Max pulled her in closer until his lips captured hers. She couldn’t believe they were kissing! Again! Breaking off the kiss, she tried to push him away; but like a mountain, he wouldn’t budge

“Let me go Max”

“Never!” He said with a growel

“You had no trouble letting me go last time” Gemma said, her voice quivering

Max’s eyes hardened as he returned back to that night, on his sixteenth birthday when he spoke to Gemma. He remembered it like it was yesterday; but then again, he had been reliving that night over and over everyday; every word, every emotion and action engraved into his mind forever.

(2 years ago, Birthday night)

After deciding that he would need to keep Gemma being his mate a secret, he had walked up the stairs with a heavy heart, his mate’s scent telling him where she was. As he had neared Maddie’s door,he had heard the excitement in Gemma’s voice and smiled when he heard her comparing their kiss to a movie known for s****l content and how hot it was. His wolf had said the words ‘our mate is amazing’ and just before Max could agree, Maddie had squealed in his head in excitement; not realising that he had projected the thought without any barricade.

Realising his mistake, he acted fast and told Maddie not to say anything to anyone and told her to go back to the party. He had told Ben and Mark to keep the games going while he spoke to Gemma. Max had looked at a flushed Gemma as she came out of Maddie’s room and her eyes seared his very soul, her desire for him blatant and innocent in it’s raw passion. Grabbing her hand, he indicated with his head to follow him as he took her back to his room. Closing the door behind him, he gestured for her to sit on the bed, trying hard to ignore his mates scent. He cleared his throat twice before walking towards her slowly.

“Gemstone, you know I care about you right?

“I know Max. A...and I ….I care about you too” She said

“Gem’s-”

“I’m not sorry it happened” She quickly interrupted. She was close enough for him to touch and he couldn’t help but give into his desire.

“You’re not?” He asked, his heart feeling light. Maybe it could work? Yes she was human, but surely they could make it work somehow?

“No I’m not. You...you’re my first kiss Max” She said shyly as her eyes darted away before looking at him again

“You’re mine’s too Gemstone” Max admitted, his heart thudding at the admission.

Gemma’s eyes light up and she leans her head onto his shoulder as she sighed deeply. “Gem’s, you know I’m away in a few days. I-”

“I know, it’s ok Max” She rushed in “I’m sure we can email, w******p and video call each other”

“But you know that won’t always be possible right? Alpha camp takes a lot of time and-”

“I know Max. It’s ok. We can work it out” She said, her eyes sparkling.

Max couldn’t help himself, he leaned in for another kiss but this time the kiss went further than he intended. Suddenly his hand was in her hair and when he turned her face higher up for a kiss, she started easing back on the bed, his body following hers as he lay on top of her. He looked into her eyes as he kissed her and his body moved above her; his lower half grating against her in the s****l act. Not wanting to ruin her dress with creases, Gemma had pushed Max back after breaking the kiss and started to take off her dress. Max grabbed her hand, stopping her action.

“What are you doing Gemstone?”

I...I..just, I just don’t want the dress to -”

“Gemstone, I can’t let you-”

“It’s not to have s*x. I...I..I want to lay on the bed with you for a little while but without my dress getting wrinkled”

“God Gem’s! You could tempt a saint” Max said as he eased back from her “But trust me, if anything comes off, you won’t be leaving this bed a virgin”

Gemma’s face flushed with pleasure as she pushed against Max, her legs falling open and her skirt part of the dress lifted slightly. Max puffed out a breath of air before settling on top of her again, his body feeling hot as he looked down, taking in her taught body, her beloved face. Bending down, he kissed her again as he gently rocked his body against her mound, groaning loudly at the contact before stiffening in shock. Gemma had managed to wriggle her hand between their bodies and was now stroking his hard c**k through his trousers and was trying to open the zipper.

“Gems! f**k!”

“Not yet, but I wouldn’t mind a little feel” She giggled as she managed to get her hand inside his trousers and through the hole of his boxers before brushing his velvet smooth hard length.

Gemma didn’t know where this bold attitude came from. Where she even knew how to do this. It just felt so instinctual, so right to be like this with him. She didn’t want to have s*x, or so she thought. She wanted to wait until her own sixteenth birthday or even her eighteenth. A way to mark such a milestone in her life with the right person by her side. Yet right now, knowing he would be busy and leaving soon; she wanted a little something to remember this night by. She squeezed his c**k a little harder and Max hissed out a sound of pleasure as his eyes changed to amber. He nipped her bottom lip which had her moaning before he demanded entry into her mouth. Grabbing his hard c**k, she pulled it out and rubbed herself against it. Max widened his eyes and tried to pull back before Gemma grabbed him with her arms and begged

“Please Max...I...I just want to feel it”

“Gem’s...fuck...stop!. I...we can’t”

“We won’t put it inside me. I just want to...oh god Max! that feels so good!...please...please just rub against me a little harder”

Max couldn’t deny her request. Hell he was barely holding on himself! And this was his mate! It was natural to be this way with a mate but with Gemma, even more so!. He rubbed his c**k against her thin panties and tried to control his breathing. She was his mate, her smell, her arousal was coiling around them and he felt pre-c*m leak slighlty from his hardened c**k, knowing that they both would be leaving wet spots, judging by how wet Gemma was too; as he rubbed against her c**t, his c**k demanding entry into the treasure he knew awaited it.

“Gem’s we have to stop.”

“Max...I...put it in” Gemma whispered, her face flushed, her eyes a lustful gaze. Max stopped moving as he looked at her, his face now shocked at her change of demand “Ju..Just a little bit”

“Gem’s I can’t. I don’t want it to be like this. It should be special”

“It is. Only a little bit Max. Just so I can feel you. It’ll be ok. We won’t go further”

“And what if something happens-”

“Nothing can happen. We both will stop”

Just like that Max froze. Her words brought him back to reality with a thud. Her innocent comment made him realise how naive she really was. When he spoke of something happening, he spoke of pregnancy. If he bit her at the same time as cumming inside her, he knew she would become pregnant. Him going away for training and her trying to cope alone was going to be near impossible. While he knew he would welcome and love their child, Gemma was still human and f**k; still forteen. Ben was right! She was still a kid herself! How could he have forgotten his own promise? How could he have forgotten how human she was. That if he left, and she was pregnant, then his child would be unprotected.                                                                                                                                                                                                 Yes everyone else would be here to help, but a child; especially a male child of an alpha would require a lot more support and handling and therefore flourished when it’s father was there to help. There was no way Max could help properly due to going away to alpha camp and it would be too much for Gemma to cope without him. It was already hard enough leaving as it is., her falling pregnant would mean he wouldn’t be going anywhere and it would lock her down. There was still so much more she had to do. God! She was only fourteen! With a heavy heart and great strength that came from knowing he would be leaving his mate and potential child in danger if anything went further tonight, Max lifted his body off Gemma who was watching him with lust filled eyes, her lips plump and swollen from his kisses.                                                                                                                                                                                            Gemma moaned out in disappointment as he tucked his c**k back inside his boxers, zipped up his trousers before helping Gemma sit up. He helped rearrange her dress and hair as much as possible and got up from the bed to walk over and open his bedroom window. While it may seem that all that took place over a long period of time, he was surprised to see barely 10 minutes had passed.

“I...I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to mess this up” Gemma said, her face flushed with embarrassment

“No Gemstone. Don’t apologies-”

“I’ll be fifteen soon, and I can come to visit you at the camp when mammie goes to see Ben” Gemma cut in quickly as she tried to fix what she thought was a timing issue.

Max shook his head, his wolf finally speaking up too; fluctuating between anger at Max for stopping but worried for the possible outcome if they had continued. Realising that Gemma was still on the path to be intimate with him, Max acknowledged Ben’s advice that Gemma really was too human, too innocent to understand the responsibilities and consequences that could come with them mating before she turned sixteen.                                                                                                                                                                                                   With his heart beating and his wolf growling in his head not to do what he was about to, Max walked to Gemma and helped her stand and walked them towards his door. He hardened his heart as he faced her and tried not to get lost in her beautiful eyes, scanning her face as he memeriosed her; for he knew after what he was about to do, he would not be seeing or speaking to her until he came back in two years’ time.

“Gem” Clearing his throat he continued with his plan “Gemma, I need to tell you something”

Gemma frowned. He never called her by her full name. Ever! Suddenly she started to get scared as she saw his somber look. His eyes which were so full of passion for her were now dull and cool. Even the way he was holding her wasn’t how he usually was with her. Fear struck her and she started to shake slightly.

“Gemma. I stopped because I just realised something” He said quietly

“Realised w...w...what? Max, you’re scaring me”

“I...You know i’m not a player or someone who messes about right?” He said

“Max what has that got to do with-” She cut off as she thought about why Max had changed his mind about touching her.

“Are...Hav...Have you..found your mate?” She asked, feeling like time stopped and like her, was waiting for his answer

Realising that Gemma was a lot smarter than he gave her credit for, Max nodded as his resolve became stronger; surprised yet proud at her quick thinking and italect; that she was able to come to this conclusion so quickly and accurately

“Yes Gemma. I’ve found my mate” He said, not admitting to her that it was in fact her who was his mate.

Gemma paled, the shock of the statement making her feel sick and her heart hammer painfully against her chest. She couldn’t believe that she forgot Max being a future alpha meant that his mate would be an equally strong wolf if not an alpha’s daughter herself. Gemma didn’t know of any visiting alpha female wolf so she assumed it must be a strong female who was either in their pack or some of the guests that were visiting from Glasgow and surrounding areas. On the verge of asking who it was, Gemma hugged herself tighter as she moved away from him.

“I’m sorry Gemma, I shouldn’t have kissed you”

That statement broke Gemma’s heart. Her breathing became harder as she processed everything that had gone on and how Max had suddenly changed his attitude and had become so cold.

“O....oh my god! Did...did she just walk past your door or something? Did you smell her suddenly and that’s why you stopped?”

“Gem’s-”

“Oh god..o..oh god, you would have stopped and left me if we had had s*x….if we were in the middle of it...and she c..c..came in or walked by. Y...you would..hav..have left me” Gemma cut in, her eyes telling it’s own horror at being used and abandoned in such a way.

“Gemma” Max tried to console her, his wolf howling at it’s mate’s distress.

“W.....when did you know she was near?...wa..was it before...i touch...touched your…..” She indicated to his nether regions

Max swallowed as he tried to hide the truth from her, that he knew she was his mate as soon as he had touched her in the shed. Gemma’s eyes widened in horror as she jumped to her own conclusions

“N..no...it was before that wasn’t it. Oh god!....o...oh god that make’s everything we did…..so..so wrong!..so that means ...you couldn’t get her so you decided ...t..to use me..to let off steam”

“Gemma no-” Max tried to hold her again, only to be pushed back forcefully

“I...i never thought you were that kinda guy but I guess I was wrong. N..never thought you would be the one to do this to me Max” Her voice full of tears

“Gem’s please, you’re jumping to really big conclusions-”

“Am I right or wrong Max. You knew who she was after….af.after...the shed kiss. Didn’t you?” Gemma asked as she worked out her own timeline

Knowing she was speaking the truth but unable to admit to his secret or to his promise to Ben, Max looked away from her pale face and swallowed; knowing that anything he said now would bring him an outcome he wouldn’t like. He heard Ben’s voice and the conversation they had after the kiss and the promise he made. Hardening his resolve, Max straightened his shoulders and looked her in the eyes as he told her the truth, which she would see as his lie of omission.

“Yes” He reached out to take her hand

“Don’t touch me! Don’t co...come ne..near me. I...I can’t even look at you” She turned around

“Gemstone-”

“Never call me that again. I am not your Gemstone and you are nothing to me now. I could never trust you again….I..I..ha.hate you Max”

With those words, she reached for the handle to go into the room where the party was still going when suddenly the door opened and Maddie looked out, her mouth still laughing from whatever had been said; before she took in her best friends tear filled eyes, her disarray appearance and her brother’s fallen face. His body stiff, his eyes revealing pain and heartache. Maddie held out her hand to Gemma who quickly wrapped herself in her friends embrace, her slight body heaving with deep breaths; Looking up in enquiry to her brother, Max gave her a look and spoke through his mind-link that they would chat later about it, both of the siblings worrying as they looked at the special person who’s whole being was centered around pain at this time

Gemma’s eyes flashed as she came out of her thoughts from the last night had seen Max, because after that day, she had made one excuse after another to not see or be alone with him. She knew he and Maddie had had words because Maddie helped make excuses as well as warn her of when Max tried to approach her. Her friendship had taken an even stronger turn after that and Gemma had lived in a state of pain filled days and tortured nights thinking and wondering who his mate was and if they had been intimate or not.                                                                                                                                                                                                 If Max had also kissed this mate, taken her to his bed and loved her. She had made herself so ill that one night it had resulted in a horrific outcome that had left everyone shaken. It was during this outcome that one night while mammie had been tending to her in the hospital, Gemma had apparently done something worrying and that had changed mammie forever. It was from that night on, mammie had become and emotional wreck and till this date she didn’t know what had happened because not everyone knew and the ones who did, refused to talk about it

“So, are all of you guy’s back early or just you?” Gemma asked as she moved away from Max, slowly easing towards the door

“How do you know i’m not just visiting?” Max asked, crossing his arms over his chest, his muscles flexing

“This is you Max. While we may not be friends anymore. I do know you. You wouldn’t have left early just to visit, especially not so near the exams. So, i can only assume that you’ve finished Alpha training and have come back home” Gemma said, her chin tilting up, her eyes clear of any emotion

“Gemstone, you-”

“Please don’t call me that. It’s inappropriate” Gemma interrupted.

“It will never be inappropriate” Max replied back, his eyes flashing golden as his wolf came up to the surface “I have a right-”

“I think your mate would object to that right or have you not told her about what almost happened between us and that it happened after you met her?” Gemma once again interrupted

“Will you ever let me finish a sentence without interrupting me” Max huffed out, his voice a mix of annoyance and amusement.

He walked slowly towards her and stopped just before he touched her body, his nose taking in her tantalising scent, his eyes raking her body as he looked at her, thirsting after all these years at finally being able to see her. She had grown into a beautiful woman. When he had left, she was still a gangly yet pretty teen, her body showing promise of what was to come; but now, like a flower who had bloomed in the summer, Gemma was breathtaking.

Her black curling tresses gleamed with richness while hinting at its lushness, telling him that running his fingers through her hair would be a pleasure all on it’s own. Her body that once had a childish charm, had now filled out and created perfection in his eyes. Her breasts had filled out too. Then, while they were just about a handful, looking at them now; they would most definitely be more, considerably more. And yet, it didn’t look disproportionate on her frame which was athletic yet curvy; the kind that most females complain about but makes men sit up and take notice. Her face was porcelain smooth with a healthy glow as if she had been in the sun on a holiday destination. In other words, she was perfect.                                                                                                                                                                                               As she has always been and he was thankful to the moon goddess for giving him such a fabulous and sexy mate. His wolf howled his approval, demanding that he mark her right now and complete the mating. It ran around in circles in excitement, acting like a puppy that required attention; but for once he was in agreement with his wolf. The last two year, ever since that night; he and his wolf had a constant battle where it didn’t agree with the way Max had dealt with the whole mate issue. Maxsius kept fighting for dominance and demanding that they go home and mate with Gemma and plant their pups inside her. Wanting that too, Max had to fight harder to control that urge and punished himself by taking on additional fighting skill training, eventually resulting in a more mature wolf as he too learned how to be more refined and less like a wild animal. His wolf maturing made Max a better Alpha and it resulted in him excelling at his training; being one of the first alphas at the academy to have completed so quickly and early.

Looking at her, Max knew he would struggle in keeping to just a platonic friendship as he originally planned to do. Even now, both he and his wolf were dying to get a taste of her, his imagination creating scenarios where Gemma was laid out like a feast just for him before jumping to an image of her belly round and swollen with his pups. Max softley growled with approval at that image, his c**k hardening at that thought.

“So, how long are you both here for?” Gemma asked, her soft voice hardening his c**k further

“Both who?” Max asked with a frown

“You and your mate of course. I know a couple of girls left a few days and weeks after your birthday party so I’m assuming it was one of them?” Gemma explained, remembering how torchered she had felt knowing that within three weeks of the boys departure five girls ranging from fifteen and seventeen had left and that one of them had most likely been his mate, especially as three of the girls had been higher ranking wolves.

“I don’t know who you think is my mate and I don’t know who left, but they certainly didn’t come near me”

“Oh please Max. You expect me to believe that? After what you told me?” Gemma said as she glared back at him

“Gem’s-”

“Not that it matters anyways. I’m glad that it happened like that. Otherwise we would have made a huge mistake” She said, her body stiff with tension

“Is that right?” Max asked, his voice deep and deadly, his eyes flashing wolf “And why would that be?”

“Well..I uh” Swallowing past her tight throat, she tightened her resolve and squared her shoulders “ Because we both wouldn’t then be with our partners. You with your mate and me with my fiance”

“Fiance? What the f**k are you talking about Gemmstone. You’re sixteen. You can’t have a fiance” Max growled. Yes he had heard of the fiance, he was there when Gemma had told Maddie, but right after it; Max had blacked out and gone wolf. He knew that his wolf had buried that information deep inside so Max wouldn’t go crazy but he couldn’t believe that he had buried it so deep that it was completely forgotten

Lifting her left hand up, she flashed him the sparkling, heavily diamond encrusted ring in Max’s face, the diamond flashing brightly in the light. Gemma smiled smugly as Max grabbed her hand, holding it tightly as he gaped at the impressive ring.

“I turn seventeen in a few days and - “

“You turn seventeen in June, not a few days” Max shouted, his voice raising as he said each word

“Semantics. Point is, he proposed and I said yes” She said as she tried to take back her hand

”Why?” Max asked, his voice now low

“Why what?” Gemma asked, confusion on her face

“Why did you say yes? Why didn’t you wait to speak to me first, to ask me?” Max asked, his eye now a deep stormy grey.

“Are you kidding me? I can’t even....ask you? Ask you what Max? Last time I checked, you weren’t my brother or father, nor my boyfriend. Not even a friend, so why the hell would I speak to you about it or ask you?” Gemma shouted, her breathing choppy as she got angry with every question, her chest tightening.

“Because i’m your mate!”

Slap! Gemma’s hand flew across without any warning and smacked loudly against his check. Max grabbed her hand tighter and pulled her against him, his lips descending and capturing hers. Her mouth parted slightly in shock and Max used that to his advantage as he stuck his tongue in her mouth and took control of the kiss. His wolf howled in joy as he finally was touching his mate and Max couldn’t help but grip her waist tighter, his hand letting her captured hand go to settle at the middle of her back as he pulled her in closer. Gemma moaned in pleasure, her fiance forgotten as she returned Maz’s kiss.                                                                                                                                                                                                  Suddenly, pushing her back against the door, Max lifted one of her legs and placed it high on his hips as he deepened the kiss and tilted her head up further. His black jeanes snuggly sitting between her legs and rubbing against her p***y, her panties only a slight barrier, creating a delicious friction. They both groaned in pleasure as they both fought for dominance, their tongues capturing and clashing together. Releasing her lips, his stormy gaze looked into her cornflower blue eyes and bit out each word.

“You.Are.Mine! You have always been mine, and no f*****g fake fiance will take you from me”

Pushing at his arms to make him release her, Gemma bought her leg down from his hips as she tried to free herself from his arms.

“I’m not yours. I’m Conner’s. I turn seventeen soon and we plan to get married on my twentieth birthday, after I finish university. Don’t pull this bullshit on me about being yours when you have a mate!”

“You’ve always been mine Gemstone and only mine” Max said in a controlled voice “And this Conner won’t be standing in my way because you won’t be marrying him”

“You don’t get to have a say Max!”

Grabbing her arm he pulled her to him. Gemma squeaked before feeling Max’s hard body fully against hers, but this time Max took three steps back and fell onto his back on the bed, taking her with him. Once they landed safely, Max rolled them so Gemma was under him, her legs falling open of their own accord as Max fixed himself between her snuggly. He looked down at her widened eyes before leaning down and kissing her, his lips demanding entry as his body moved against her gently in an example of what he wanted. Gemma first pushed against his chest, trying to get away from him; yet as soon as he kissed her, her resolve crumbled and her hand found purchase in his hair.                                                                                                                                                                                               She felt his rock hard c**k against her thin panties as it rubbed against her p***y, her c**t being touched just right and kept her on edge as she moaned. Max’s eyes glazed over in pleasure as he took in his mate’s scent of arousal. He broke off the kiss and buried his head against her neck and felt his canines lengthen as he grazed her neck, his breathing choppy as his c**k enjoyed the friction. Using one hand, he unzipped and pulled out his c**k as he kissed her again, his fingers pushing her panties to the side; placing his thick hard c**k against as he started rubbing up and down, her juices wetting him.

“Max” Gemma whispered, her eyes looking at him in shock as she broke off the kiss.

Her body froze in shock as Max rubbed a little faster against her. Her slit had started to cream, the wetness coating him and making the friction feel better as they both moaned. Max gripped her hips a little tighter as he looked down at her, his eyes speaking of love and desire. Gemma knew they were in dangerous waters. God what was she doing?! She was engaged! to Conner! But this was Max! And he was here. Rubbing against her in such a way that her brain stopped thinking.

“Babe...Please” Max said breathlessly as he rubbed against her harder “Just a little bit….just the tip”

Gemma stopped breathing for a second before her whole body froze. Feeling the difference in her body, Max stopped and looked at her, shocked at the tears in her eyes. His body protesting that he had stopped as it could still feel her wetness on his c**k which was gradually softening; Max brushed his rumb to wipe the tears that spilled, his heart sore as he looked at his mate who was no longer enjoying his body against hers. In fact, Gemma had started shivering and Max moved away from her, tucking his c**k back into his jeans without zipping up. He took another blanket from the side of the bed and wrapped it around Gemma who seemed to have gone into a quiet trans and while she had stopped crying, she wasn’t so much as looking at Max as looking through him.

“Gemstone…..Baby, speak to me” He said, placing a loving hand to her cheek, he creased her; trying to gain her attention.

“That’s what I said to you...last time...before you stopped….and left me” Gemma whispered, her eyes re-focusing on Max who’s face paled.

“Gem’s, I swear to you...I swear that I never wanted to stop then-”

“Then why did you Max? WHY?” She shouted, her body finally unfreezing as she moved away from the bed, clutching the blanket closer.

“Because I promised Ben I wouldn’t take you!” Max replied, his hand raking his hair.

“You what?” Gemma asked, her eye wide, her face losing colour

“You were right when you said that I had found my mate before we went to my room. But I didn’t find her after you guy’s walked away, after we all came out of the shed. I found her IN the shed and I kissed her”

Placing a hand on her chest, Gemma swallowed, her voice quivering, her mouth opening and closing before finally forming the words she wanted to say

“Wha….What are...you saying Max?”

“You Gem’s. It’s always been you” Max sighed before walking closer to her “The second I kissed you in the shed, I knew Gem’s a-”

“Max stop!” Gemma said as she cut him off, her mind confused “Do you realise what you are saying? That’s not possible. I’m only human and-”

“And you are my mate Gemstone. I, future Alpha Max Senider, have you; Gemma Loackheart, as my mate. My human mate” Walking up to her, he kissed her softly before saying “ And I couldn’t be happier or prouder of that fact”
