Claimed by My Bully Alpha Chapter 98
Aurora’s P.O.V
Just like the first time I had kissed him…this one felt just as overwhelming, just as charged with unexpected tension. I held onto him tighter as Caleb leaned down into the kiss, pressing some of his weight down onto me as if to hold me in place.
His kiss ignited a fire within me, a desire I hadn't expected.
Caleb pressed me back onto the bed; his lips moving on top of mine with a fervour that I hadn’t anticipated. I could feel his hands exploring my body, igniting sensations that sent shivers down my spine. The connection between us seemed to intensify with each passing moment, overpowering any rational thoughts I had.
His touch awakened a hunger within me that I didn’t know existed, and I began to explore him just as he was exploring me, my hands tracing the contours of his body as the passion between us escalated.
Every cell in my body seemed to come alive at his touch, consuming me whole. It was as if I was no longer in control of my own body, my own emotions.
Caleb’s closeness was intoxicating, his every touch setting my senses on fire. I found myself surrendering to the overwhelming desire that surged through me.
As the kiss deepened and our bodies intertwined, I couldn't ignore the rush of emotions that flooded my mind. Desire was at the forefront of it all, but I was still a bit hesitant if we were doing the right thing. It seemed too early, too much…but at the same time, I couldn’t bring myself to stop, to push him away…
Caleb's hands were warm as they went under my shirt to rest on the bare skin of my abdomen, igniting a sensation within me that left me breathless. And any thought I had of stopping him vanished into thin air.
There was an undeniable pull between us, a magnetic force that seemed to bind us together. At that moment, I sensed it—the mating bond. It was something I had never expected to feel as a human. A primal energy that pulled me deeper into the haze.
Time seemed to come to a standstill. All that mattered was him and me, and this undeniable bond holding us together.
His touch felt like a brand against my skin, one that I never wanted to erase. If I hadn’t already been on the bed, I would’ve fallen to the floor already as my legs turned to jelly. My breath hitched, my pulse an erratic beat that drummed inside my ears. It felt like the entire world could hear my heart beat and I wanted them to.
I wanted to be as close to Caleb as I could be, physically, mentally. One of my hands tangled in the silken strands of his hair, so soft that I could spend hours just weaving my fingers through them.
I could feel his erratic heartbeat through his chest…and it mirrored my own frantic rhythm. Our kiss became frantic, urgent, as he clutched onto me just as desperately as I did him. I wanted to fight the desire that was clawing through me…wanting me to claim him, to be claimed by him in return.
But then, suddenly, Caleb pulled away from me, leaving me confused and breathless.
I groaned in protest, trying to pull him back in, but he resisted. When I opened my eyes to look up at him, I saw him fighting an internal battle with himself. His eyes were troubled, but he seemed to be winning that internal battle. Finally, he closed his eyes on a sigh and when he opened them again, his eyes were a lighter shade of blue, exuberating calm and control; complete opposites of what I was feeling.
I groaned, my mind a jumbled mess of thoughts and emotions and my body still abuzz with desire. My womanhood was throbbing, as if resonating my heartbeat. I had to clench my thighs together and bite down on my lower lip to stop a desperate moan trying to claw its way up my throat.
“W-why?” I asked, sounding breathless and desperate.
“You’re not the only one who feels it, Aurora.” Caleb told me, his voice hoarse and breathless. “I feel it too…I want this too.”
At first, I didn’t really believe him…that was until I felt it…the proof of his erection pressing against my lower abdomen. I felt my cheeks heat up from embarrassment when it finally registered how far we had both been turned on.
Caleb gave a bark of laughter, comfortable with him own body’s reaction, but he still sat up on the bed and moved away from me, so that I wouldn’t feel uncomfortable.
“Then why did you stop?” I asked in a small voice, elated yet giddy.
“Because I want to wait till you’re eighteen.” He told me, his voice soft but firm. “I screwed up a lot of things, Aurora, but I don’t want this to be one of them. I want you to have your firsts the way you wanted them to be.”
I think it was a little too late for my first kiss, but Caleb was right…I still had a lot of firsts to tick off of my list and I was glad that Caleb was stopping me from doing something that I might regret later.
With a heavy sigh and a still throbbing libido, I got off the bed, wanting to head back to my room so I could take a cold shower. The fact that the room was still icy cold still helped in calming down my nerves, even if a little bit.
Reaching out, I placed my hand on his forehead, just to make sure that he was alright. “Your fever seems to have gone down, but I think you should rest. I’ll visit when you’re better.”
“Thank you, Aurora…” Caleb gave me a relieved smile. “For trusting me…for accepting me.”
I felt butterflies erupt in my stomach at his words, a tingle shooting down my spine.
Caleb had marked me…we were now officially mates…I was his and he was mine.
But as much as the thought made me giddy, I couldn’t help the fact that my senses were still on overdrive and the longer I stayed in his proximity, I was in danger of doing something that I might regret later.
“I…um…Riley…he’s probably waiting for me.” I laughed nervously as I backed away from the bed. “I’ll…I guess I’ll see you later.”
I didn’t wait for him to answer; I simply turned around and I ran. Thankfully, when I came out of his room, there was no one in the hallways or near the elevator, so I made a run for it. Only when I reached the privacy of my room did I let out a sigh of relief.
I was also thankful that Riley was back in his room and I was all alone in my room. So I didn’t waste any time before I took a change of clothes and headed straight for the shower.
I made sure to turn the temperature down as low as it got to douse this fire burning in my body. The cold spray felt welcoming, and slowly but surely, I started to feel a lot better. My heartbeat was back to normal and the ache between was legs was gone as well.
After I was done, I wrapped a towel around myself and came to stand in front of the mirror, wiping the steam from the glass, It didn’t take long to notice the bite mark, but when I had thought it would be the shape of teeth…I was surprised to find that it had taken on the shape of a crescent moon instead.
“Didn’t he…use his teeth?” I wondered out loud, but no matter which angle I turned, the shape was that of a tiny red crescent moon.
Cautiously, I touched the area lightly, only to flinch back. There was a slight pain, but more like a discomfort.
Marked. I was marked as Caleb’s mate. Even though the idea had felt foreign not too long ago, now, it felt like a welcome knowledge, a bond that I didn’t want to run away from anymore.
I had been a fool to think that I could get away, but in reality, I had been scared, letting my fear of the unknown dictate my decisions.
But I wasn’t scared anymore. And no matter what…I wanted to stay by Caleb’s side…for as long as I could.
