CHAPTER 4
Declan
I'm really disappointed that my mate did not come and join me in the shower like I thought she would, so when I'm done drying
off, and get dressed, I go in search of her. My senses take me to the nursery where I find her sound asleep in the rocking chair
with both pups in her arms. Holden's head is on her shoulder with drool hanging from his mouth, soaking her shoulder. Asher is
cradled in her other arm, blowing milk bubbles in his sleep.
I have no choice but to take a picture of this; it's just too adorable not to. Okay, maybe I take five instead of one, but I needed
one from all angles. Pocketing my phone, I carefully try lifting Holden off of her, but her grip tightens and then suddenly there is a
growl, and her eyes are open with Tala's glowing eyes staring back at me. Once she realizes who I am, she snaps out of it.
"I am so sorry, babe! I didn't mean to fall asleep."
"It's okay. It's been a long day, so it's understandable." I lift my son up successfully this time and walk him over to the other crib
where I lay him down on his back. He won't stay in that position, though, because he's a mover when he sleeps.
"Well, you definitely smell much better from when you did before." Quinn smirks.
"I don't know, your Beta's thought I smelled pretty good!" I grin.
"Yeah, what was that all about?" My mate stands and places our youngest in his own crib.
"Who the fuck knows, it's been a strange day all around." I scrub my face, starting to feel the exhaustion set in.
"Has Jonah contacted you yet? I don't know if he tried linking me while I was sleeping. I was obviously in a deep sleep."
"I haven't, babe."
"Ugh, I'm not going to be able to sleep until I know how the patient is." She starts pacing the floor until I take hold of both her
shoulders, stopping her.
"Seriously? You were just snoring logs a moment ago. There is no sense in getting all worked up. Let the guy rest; he took a
pretty bad hit to the skull."
"What if he wakes up and escapes?" She glances up at me like she doesn't already know that I have guards placed outside his
door, window and every entrance to the hospital already.
"I highly doubt he will be waking up anytime soon, if he wakes up at all." I kiss her forehead, "If it will make you feel better, just
"What if he's in the middle of a surgery or something?"
"Quinn, you won't know unless you try, and if you don't try then you will never know."
My mate bursts out laughing, "Did you just hear yourself?"
"What's so funny?"
"You just said the same exact thing except in a different order."
"Well, you get the gist. Now, link the doctor and find out, because I would really like to take my mate to bed now."
To Quinn's dismay, Dr. Sands informs her that he has put the stranger under a medically induced coma, so he can heal properly.
The blow he took was actually multiple blows and he should be dead from it, so the Doc is keeping a close eye on him over night
and will check-in with Quinn again in the morning.
"See, babe, there isn't anything you can do about it right now. Let the male rest and maybe he will be up for visitors at some
point tomorrow, if Jonah pulls him from the coma."
"Fine, but I'm going over there myself, first thing in the morning to see for myself what kind of condition he's in."
"Okay, but at some point, I would like us to go over to my pack to take care of a few things. I need to check in and as their new
Luna, you should probably show yourself as well."
"Oh Goddess, you're right! Look at me, I'm already shirking my duties as your Luna!"
I pull her into me, "Oh, you're shirking your duties as my Luna alright, but it isn't from pack business." I grin deviously, "I think you
should probably start making up for it here in the next few minutes."
Her eyes widen before she glares at me, "I don't think that is the department that I am shirking my duties in. If anything, I feel as
though I'm an over achiever! I'm thinking my Alpha needs to pick. up some of that slack!".
I can feel Duke flash across my face one moment, and the next I'm picking her up and tossing her over my shoulder, "I'll pick up
the slack!"
"Oh my Goddess. Declan!" My mate giggles and then slaps my ass.
I don't miss a step as I take her to our room, and then over to the bed. I actually place her down gently and then take her face in
my hands and caress her lips with my own. I pull her clothes off slowly before pushing her back on the bed and following her
down.
"I've fucked you many times today, my Queen, but I have yet to make love to you. Let me do this; let me love you." I drag my lips
Taking her hands, I hold them down in place, so she can't touch me just yet. This is about her right now, and I will continue to
worship her body until I feel that it's gotten the attention that it deserves. I can hear her erratic heartbeat every time my lips touch
a sensitive spot on her body, and the lower I go, it only seems to beat faster.
"Declan..."
"Yes Quinn?"
"Please don't stop..."
"I couldn't even if I tried, baby."
Letting go of her hands, I grab her thighs and spread them as I lift them up, showcasing her perfect womanhood. I can already
see that she's slick with arousal from just my soft touch. When I lower my face down, all I do is breathe on her and her body jerks
because she's so sensitive. Wrapping my arms around her thighs, so I can get a good grip on her, I slowly run my tongue up her
folds.
"Oh, Goddess, Declan...I can't...please!"
"Please what, baby?" I lick her again as I gaze up at her face.
"I need you...now."
"You have me, Quinn. You will always have me..." There isn't any more room for talking as I really begin to eat her out like she is
my last meal. I have her coming in no time, but I don't stop there, I continue to draw out two more orgasms before I'm pulling off
my own shorts and crawling up her body. I lift one of her legs, placing it by my hip as I slide right in. I have to close my eyes and
bite my tongue because it feels way too fucking good!
All my life I've waited to feel this bliss. I'm not talking about the sex; I'm talking about the contentment I feel deep inside
whenever I'm with this woman. When I found her at fifteen, something told me that I needed to take her into my pack and protect
her. I knew all those years ago that she would be important to me, and when almost lost her to not only the abductions, but to my
cousin as well, I was feeling so lost. Now that I have her back, my soul is at rest and my heart feels full; it's like breathing fresh
air for the first time.
I crush my lips against hers and thrust my hips slowly but deeply. I want her to feel every inch of hardness deep within as I take
her to heights unknown. Her little moans tell me that I'm getting the job done while her hands grip my sides and back, wherever it
can find a good place to hold. I can feel the deep scratches made on my back, but Duke heals them right away.
"Goddess Declan, what are you doing to me?" She throws her head back as her back arches while she starts to come once
again.
"I'm only giving you what you need, Quinn...all of my love." I let out my fangs and bite into her mark, giving her everything that I
have to give.
Just a little intimate moment before sh*t hits the fan! -)
