The Beta’s Alpha Mate

Ten

(warning: s****l content)

Grayson’s POV

I stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel around my waist. I hadn’t been completely honest with Julien. I kicked him out of my room in part because Fang was driving me crazy.

He felt like it was fine to throw myself at Julien, just because he was the future Alpha. I’d watched girls do that our entire lives; I wasn’t about to join them.

Fang didn’t even seem to care about our mystery mate anymore, he only had eyes for one black-haired, blue-eyed Alpha. But he was my best friend, and my wolf was not going to dictate the terms of our relationship.

I had a long history of not listening to Fang to maintain, so I told Julien I was tired and made him leave. Originally I’d planned to tease him, push his boundaries a little. He seemed nervous but genuinely interested in hooking up for whatever reason; maybe someone at his Alpha training had sparked his curiosity. I was happy to benefit from that curiosity, but not at the expense of my own dignity - despite what my wolf thought.

So now I was full of pent-up energy and the desire to teach Fang a lesson about which one of us was making the decisions regarding our partners.

I texted Daniel. “My room, ten minutes?”

The thumbs up emoji assured me he’d be here soon.

“Door is unlocked. Strip and wait for me in bed.”

I rubbed my hair with the towel, drying it as best I could, and ran my fingers though it to straighten it out.

You’re ridiculous, Fang growled at me. Are you really about to sleep with that Omega just to prove a point?

His name is Daniel, and there won’t be any sleeping involved, Fang, I retorted.

He huffed. You’ll regret this someday. Just wait. I can feel it. With that ominous warning, he retreated to the back of my mind.

I shrugged him off. Stupid wolf.

Opening the bathroom door and returning to my room, I looked toward the bed and could see Daniel’s slim figure laying under the blankets. I smirked when he lifted his gaze toward me, his chocolate-brown eyes sparking with mischief.

“Beta Grayson,” he greeted me, a sly smile on his face. He had his elbow propped on my pillow, arm bent, his chin resting on his hand. The blankets were draped over him, but his chest was mostly exposed, showing off his small muscles. He was such a tease sometimes.

“I remember when you used to be shy, little wolf,” I leaned over him, enjoying the way his breathing hitched when I paused, stopping just short of meeting his parted lips with my own. “When did you start being so seductive?”

“I’ve had a good teacher,” he whispered, those eyes still sparking, daring me.

“Is that so?”

Daniel pushed the blankets down, exposing his whole body to me. I drank in the sight of him, the way his long legs were parted, his c**k already hard.

“Want me to show you everything else I’ve learned?” he smirked at me, wrapping one hand around my neck to pull me close for a kiss, and the other around his own length, stroking it in anticipation. I kissed him back, pushing my tongue between his lips as I let him pull me on top of him. He wrapped his legs around my waist, crushing me as close to his body as possible.

“f**k,” he groaned, rocking his hips against me when I nipped at his ear.

“Aw, language, little one,” I teased, before repeating my action on the other ear. He hissed and squirmed underneath me.

“What do you want, little wolf?” I raised my hips and he cried out from the loss of contact.

“Grays! P-p-please,” he whimpered, his eyes closed. “Please f**k me.”

“No,” I said simply. I resumed kissing and biting at his neck. “I think you have to agree to my terms before that happens.”

“What? What terms?” he asked, as his eyes shot open.

“Relax, little one, I just want to leave a few love bites where everyone can see them. I’ve been careful to protect your secret for months, but I think I want to make sure people know you’re mine now,” I smirked at him and nibbled on what I knew was a sensitive spot on his collarbone, eliciting a moan. My fingertips traced gently down his stomach and around his hips, trailing along his ass, before finally finding his entrance. I lingered there, pressing one finger against his hole, waiting on him to beg for it.

“Don’t you want everyone to know you’re my little plaything, Daniel?” I roughly whispered to him. “That you like being with me?”

“Yes, Grayson, please, do it, I’ll be all yours,” he panted, writhing around, needy.

“Good little wolf.” I wrapped my hand around his c**k, stroking it as I lowered my head down to take it into my mouth. He moaned loudly, both hands tangling in my hair as he shoved me down further onto his d**k. He was so close already. He loved being talked to like that. I swirled my tongue around the tip of his length before taking it all in again, swallowing all of him deep into my throat, and felt his body tense under me. Immediately, I pulled away, grasping him in my hand again and sliding up and down until he exploded a few moments later. Daniel whined, just making noises now, no words.

I scooped up some of the mess he had made and slide my fingers down to his entrance again, gently pushing two fingers into him. His eyes were hazy in his post-orgasm bliss, but his c**k was already twitching back to life as I played with him, adding another finger and stretching him out further. He was still on his back, but now his legs were bent, folded back towards his chest to give me better access. I removed my fingers and position my c**k against his hole, sliding slowly into him, nearly cumming on the spot from how tight and warm he was.

“f**k, Daniel, you get better every time,” I groaned out. He didn’t say anything, just raked his nails down my back in response, and I couldn’t take it anymore. I started to move my hips, biting at his neck and shoulders and chest as I pumped into him. I was going to leave marks all over him, so there was no doubt in his mind or anyone else’s that he belonged to me.

One of the places I had bitten him on his chest was bleeding, so I carefully licked it to seal the wound. As soon as I did, I was hit with a wave of desire. I lost my concentration and pounded into him over and over, cumming hard just as he did the same. It was the best release I’ve ever felt, just a feeling of pure ecstasy in my brain and tingling all over my body.

When I came down from my high, I slid out of Daniel, who was breathing hard but grinning at me like he felt just as good. We laid next to each other and I tilted my head down to rest against him, nuzzling his sweaty shoulder.

“Grays, that was f*****g amazing,” Daniel said softly.

“You were amazing,” I told him. “Oh, s**t, sorry, I might’ve gone overboard on the biting,” I apologized. Daniel was covered in small bruises and a couple of still-bleeding wounds.

He giggled. “I guess I’m not a secret lover anymore.” He kissed me again.

One of his bites seemed more severe, so I leaned down to lick and seal it again. As soon as my tongue touched his wound, I was hit was that same euphoric feeling I had a few moments ago when I came. I squeezed my eyes shut and waited for the feeling to pass, biting back the moan that nearly escaped my lips. When my head felt better, I tried again. The same thing happened. The moment I tasted blood, my senses went into overdrive.

What was I, a f*****g vampire?

“Grayson?” Daniel looked at me, his eyes full of concern. “Are you okay?”

“Uh. I think so. I just… I think you were just extra amazing tonight,” I said, wondering if he’d panic if he knew what I was thinking.

“Mmm, glad I could help,” he smiled in satisfaction and snuggled closer to me.

I couldn’t help it. I had to know what was happening to me. I extended one of my claws and lightly dragged it across his chest. He arched his back, enjoying the sensation even though it hurt.

“Grayson, babe, no more, I need to rest,” he whined.

I barely heard him, transfixed by the faint line of crimson appearing on his body.

“Yes, okay, sure, babe,” I promised absentmindedly. I lowered my face to his chest and licked the cut I had made, lapping my tongue against his smooth skin, tasting the sweet metallic taste of the blood. I moaned against Daniel’s skin, burying my nose against him. Something about this was triggering lots of sensations within me. It was everything I could do to not extend my canines and pierce his skin again and again.

“GRAYSON!” I distantly heard Daniel screaming my name, just before he shoved me away with so much force that I fell off the bed. The impact brought me out of my daze, and I vaguely registered that he looked paler than usual.

“I have to go,” he said. He hurriedly pulled his shirt and pants on and ran out of the room before I could say a word, leaving me there to wonder what the f**k was wrong with me.

Fang? I hesitantly called my wolf. I need you, help me.

Oh, now you’re interested in listening to me, he snarled.

Fang, please. Tell me what just happened. I’m not… I’m not a vampire, right? I was almost afraid to hear his answer. I’d never wanted anything as much as I wanted Daniel’s blood. It was like a drug.

Fang growled. I’m still mad at you, and you’re an i***t if you don’t see what’s happening, so I’m not helping you figure it out. But no, you’ll never be a vampire as long as you have me. I wouldn’t allow it.

I ran my hand through my hair, wondering if Daniel would ever talk to me again. What a weird night this had been.
