Chapter 171: It’s Your Turn
After checking in with the receptionist, Gamma Rhett and I were led to our room. To my surprise, it was not just spacious but had two beds in two corners of the room.
I turned to Rhett, studying his facial expression closely. He didn’t seem surprised, meaning he was well aware of this arrangement. I’d been half expecting him to take advantage of the fact that we’d share a bed to make a move on me, but it seemed Gamma Rhett was more of a gentleman than I gave him credit for.
"So..." Rhett took off his coat, hanging it on a clothes rack mounted on the wall. "Do you want to sit down or are you going to keep scrutinizing the room like you’re on the lookout for hidden cameras?"
My face flushed with embarrassment as Rhett sat comfortably on a bed, smiling with amusement. He suddenly burst into a fit of laughter, taking me by surprise. It was rare to see him laugh so cheerfully, and it felt even more special since we were both alone right now.
After calming down from his laughing fit, Rhett beckoned to me with a reassuring voice. "Relax, my Omega. It’s just me and you here. You don’t have to be so uptight."
Hmph. He was one to talk.
I took off my shoes and then unbuttoned the jacket I had on. I could feel Gamma Rhett’s unwavering gaze on me, but I didn’t mind. I actually craved it more than anything.
Make a move, Isleen. It’s just you and him now.
My wolf growled inside me as if it wanted to come out and devour Rhett itself. But I ignored it, walking with purpose to Rhett’s bed. I sat beside him, turning to take a glance at his face.
"Gamma Rhett..." I called out softly, leaning closer to him. "You know, I don’t like the way you call me ’your Omega’."
I watched Rhett raise an eyebrow, looking at me with curious eyes. "Really? But you are an Omega, or aren’t you? It’s nothing to be ashamed of, especially as my mate. You don’t have to be ashamed of anything as long as I’m here."
"How reassuring." I rolled my eyes, my voice oozing with sarcasm. "I’m being serious, Gamma Rhett. But, that’s not the main reason why we’re here anyway." I paused, staring into the Gamma’s eyes, expecting a reaction.
He creased his brows, a questioning look on his face. "Yeah, so, why did you want us to meet again tonight?"
I grinned from ear to ear, as I slowly trailed my palm down Rhett’s chest. My fingers made my way past the shirt’s buttons, and I felt my legs go numb with heat when my skin made contact with his bare chest.
He was full of hair, but not too much. Just enough to make him even more alluring than he seemed.
"Everything that you’ve hidden inside you, in that black obsidian you call a heart." I sounded rather desperate as I spoke, my hands still tracing circles on Rhett’s chest. "I want you to open them all up tonight. Your emotions, your feelings...and then, keep your pride and arrogance locked away."
A smile crept on Rhett’s face as he finally asked. "What happens if I do all that?"
I smirked. I gently pushed him as I drew my lips closer to his, looking into his eyes.
"Then..." My voice was a whisper, holding promises of unspoken desires I’d locked up for so long. "...I’ll be yours."
Rhett chuckled. He brought his hand to the back of my neck, gently cupping my hair like a precious artifact.
"Silly, girl." He muttered. "You’re already mine."
It was then that I looked down, noticing how he touched my neck. The mating mark. I looked back up, just in time to see him licking his teeth with a gaze filled with an unsatiated desire.
I gently placed my hands on his cheeks, my lips barely a few centimeters away from his. His hot breath hit my face, faintly smelling of a liquor I wasn’t familiar with. That only made my wolf even more feral. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
Instead of going in for a kiss, I showed my neck to Rhett, beckoning on him to do it. To bite me again. I wanted to feel that high like during the first bite again.
He seemed to hesitate at first, his eyes traveling from my face and then back to my neck. But soon, he brought his lips to my neck, his breath prickling my fragile skin.
His lips grazed the spot where he’d previously marked me, causing my whole body to shiver, my wolf aching, urging our mate to go on. To free us from the torture. But it had only just begun as Rhett began to plant soft kisses on my neck.
I moaned softly as my hands held onto his head, my fingers weaving through it. I didn’t want it, I NEEDED it. Oh, I was down bad!
"Bite me." I blurted out with an urgency that surprised even me, barely sounding audible to myself. It almost sounded like I was begging for it, and I wasn’t even embarrassed to admit that.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my neck, causing me to bite my lips, and my head to fall backwards. He finally did it. The pain was swift, spreading from my neck and then all over my body. But soon, it was followed by a very addictive and pleasurable feeling, coursing through my body like a wave.
I moaned yet again, my hands wrapping around Gamma Rhett’s neck. I was on cloud nine, feeling like time had stopped and only I and Rhett existed at that moment, in that room, in our own little world. But, just as fast as he’d bitten me, Rhett pulled away, the pleasurable pain in my neck subsiding with it.
"Wow." Rhett grinned, his lips painted red with my blood. He looked rather pleased with himself, speaking with a raspy voice. "That was incredible. Are you sure you don’t want a little break?"
He sounded... concerned. Why? We’d barely even started.
I drew near again, my fingers caressing his neck as my eyes locked with his.
"Don’t even think about it, Gamma Rhett," I spoke, breathing heavily as I did. "It’s your turn now."
